Mendola, Jr. and Pasquale LaVecchia, respectively (the “Director Notes”).

 

The amounts borrowed under the Director Notes accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default). The Director Notes contain standard and customary events of default.

 

As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 9, 2019, on December 9, 2019, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note with the Donald P.

The amount owed pursuant to the Revolving Monaco Trust Note accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default). The Revolving Monaco Trust Note contains standard and customary events of default.

As of the date of this report, the Revolving Monaco Trust Note has a balance of $1,200,000 and the amount remaining under the note of $1,500,000, can be accessed by the Company on a revolving basis, at any time, prior to the maturity date of the note, with the approval of the Monaco Trust.
