Commitment for inventory purchase

In December 2017, the Company entered into a two-year non-rolling stock surplus contract with the U.S. Government Defense Logistics Agency (the “DLA”), the term of which was extended until June 1, 2021 at which point the contract was terminated. Under this contract, the Company committed to purchase between 150,000 and 245,900 assets with an expected minimum value of $11,104,000 and up to $51,028,000 annually to the extent that goods are available from the DLA. From January 1, 2021 to the end of the contract term, June 1, 2021, the Company purchased $18,390,000 under the contract. As at June 30, 2021, the Company has no further commitments under the contract as it has been terminated.

On April 1, 2021, the DLA awarded two new contracts to the Company. The new contracts (one for the Eastern portion of the United States and one for the Western portion of the United States) cover both surplus non-rolling and rolling stock. Both contracts commenced on June 1, 2021 and have a base term of two years with three one year renewal options. During the first two years of the new contracts, the Company is committed to purchase on a combined basis up to either: (i) 600,000 assets, or (ii) assets with an expected minimum value of up to $77,000,000; whichever is less. As at June 30, 2021, the Company has purchased 19,813 assets with a total value of $4,244,000 pursuant to the two year period of this contract which commenced on June 1, 2021.
