The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Purpose of the Credit Facility ePlus Technology, inc. uses this credit source to finance its working capital requirements for inventories and accounts receivable. Their traditional business as sellers of computer technology assets and related network equipment and software products is financed through these arrangements known as floorplan financing, where the interest expense generally for the first thirty to forty days is not charged but is paid for by the distributor/manufacturer. These floorplan liabilities are recorded as accounts payable-trade as they are normally repaid within the thirty to forty day time frame and represent an assigned accounts payable originally generated with the supplier/manufacturer. If the thirty to forty day obligation is not paid timely, interest is then assessed at the stated contractual rates. Principal Terms of the Credit Facility The contracts provide for various repayment days dependent on the distributor/manufacturer, but the majority are 40 days on average. The facility can be terminated with 90 days notice by either party. The facility is for inventory financing and accounts receivable financing, and has an aggregate limit of $50,000,000. Interest is assessed at the prime rate minus one-half of one percent on the outstanding principal debt under the accounts receivable facility. ePlus inc., the parent of ePlus Technology, inc., has guaranteed this facility up to $10,500,000. ePlus Group, inc., with the consent of its credit facility supplier, agreed to guaranty any items it received from but not paid to ePlus Technology, inc.
