The changes to the agreements include the ability to have GECDF provide a total credit facility limit of up to $75,000,000, provided that at no time will the combined amount outstanding under the inventory floorplan credit facility and the accounts receivable facility exceed this total amount. In addition, the accounts receivable facility contains a sub-limit of $20,000,000. Additionally, ePlus Technology, inc. must maintain a ratio of debt minus subordinated debt to tangible net worth and subordinated debt ("TNW") of not more than four and one-half to one (4.5:1.0), and TNW increases quarterly in the amount of 50% of ePlus Technology, inc.'s net income for each quarter beginning December 31, 2005 from a base of $17,997,000. Purpose of the Credit Facility We use this credit facility to finance our working capital requirements for inventories and accounts receivable of our reseller business. There are two components of this lending facility: a floorplan credit facility and an accounts-receivable facility. Our traditional business as sellers of computer technology and related peripherals and software products is financed through the floorplan credit facility, in which the interest expense for the first thirty to forty-five days, in general, is not charged but is paid for by the manufacturer/distributor. These floorplan liabilities are recorded as accounts payable-trade as they are normally repaid within the thirty- to forty-five-day timeframe and represent an assigned accounts payable originally generated with the manufacturer/distributor. If the thirty- to forty-five-day obligation is not paid timely, interest is then assessed at the stated contractual rates. Principal Terms of the Credit Facility The agreements provide for various repayment days dependent on the manufacturer/distributor, but the majority are forty-five days on average. The facility can be terminated with 90 days' notice by either party. The facility consists of a total credit facility limit of $75,000,000 and a sub-limit of $20,000,000 on accounts receivable financing. Interest is assessed at the prime rate minus one-half of one percent and not less than 5.25% per annum 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 has not paid to ePlus Technology, inc.
