LONG-TERM DEBT

7.       LONG-TERM DEBT

On March 9, 2012, the Company obtained a $4.5 million term loan from Santander to be amortized over five years (the “Santander Term Facility”). The Santander Term Facility was used to purchase tooling and equipment for new programs.

Additionally, the Company and Santander entered into a five year interest rate swap agreement, in the notional amount of $4.5 million. Under the interest rate swap, the Company paid an amount to Santander representing interest on the notional amount at a fixed rate of 4.11% and received an amount from Santander representing interest on the notional amount of a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 3%. The effect of this interest rate swap was the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 4.11% over the term of the Santander Term Facility.

The Santander interest swap agreement was terminated and the Santander Term Facility was paid off on March 24, 2016 using the proceeds of the BankUnited Facility (see Note 6).

In May 2016, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap with the objective of reducing its exposure to cash flow volatility arising from interest rate fluctuations associated with certain debt. The notional amount, maturity date and currency of this contract match those of the underlying debt. The Company has designated this interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge.

The Company paid approximately $254,000 of debt issuance costs in connection with the BankUnited Facility of which approximately $96,000 is included in other current assets and $32,000 is a reduction of long-term debt.

The Term Loan had an initial amount of $10 million, payable in monthly installments, as defined in the agreement, which matures on March 31, 2019.

The maturities of long-term debt (excluding unamortized debt issuance costs) are as follows:

Twelve months ending September 30,
2018	$	1,863,711
2019		7,314,398
2020		124,273
2021		27,354
Thereafter		—
	$	9,329,736

In addition to the Term Loan, included in long-term debt are capital leases and notes payable of $454,737, including a current portion of $155,377.
