9.SENIOR SECURED NOTES

 

On December 28, 2010, MBC Funding completed a $500,000 private placement of three-year 6.63% senior secured notes. In connection therewith, MBC assigned approximately $790,000 of its short-term loans to MBC Funding to use as collateral for the notes. Pursuant to the agreement, MBC has also guaranteed the repayment of the notes. The notes require quarterly payments of interest only through the expiration date in December 2013, at which time the notes become due. The private placement was the initial tranche of a $5,000,000 offering which expired on March 31, 2011, which is no longer being marketed by the underwriter (Paulson).

 

Financing costs incurred in connection with the agreement totaled $109,183, including five year warrants (the “warrants”) to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued to the underwriter at $2.50 per share, which were valued at $11,683. These costs are amortized over the life of the senior secured notes. The amortization costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 were $9,099 and $18,197, respectively.
