Note 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

 

The Company has renewed its lease for its manufacturing facility located at 140 58th Street, Suite E, Brooklyn, New York. The renewed lease term runs from December 1, 2010 through November 30, 2020. The basic minimum annual rentals are as follows:

 

Fiscal year ending March:    
     
2015  $163,240 
2016   168,120 
2017   173,180 
2018   178,360 
2019   183,720 
Thereafter   317,840

The rental expense for the years ended March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, was $158,480 and $153,860, respectively.

 

The Company has a collective bargaining multi-employer pension plan (“Multi-Employer Plan”) with the United Auto Workers of America, Local 259. Contributions are made in accordance with a negotiated labor contract and are based on the number of covered employees employed per month. With the passage of the Multi-Employer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1990 (the “1990 Act”), the Company may become subject to liabilities in excess of contributions made under the collective bargaining agreement. Generally, these liabilities are contingent upon the termination, withdrawal, or partial withdrawal from the Multi-Employer Plan.

 

The Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or partially withdraw from the Multi-Employer Plan nor does it intend to do so in the future. Under the 1990 Act, liabilities would be based upon the Company’s proportional share of the Multi-Employer Plan’s unfunded vested benefits, which is currently not available. The amount of accumulated benefits and net assets of such Plan also is not currently available to the Company. The total contributions charged to operations under this pension plan were $118,695 for the year ended March 28, 2014 and $119,745 for the year ended March 29, 2013.
