Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies:

 

The Company leases its executive offices and warehouse facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Florida from an entity controlled by Peter G. Dornau, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. The lease, as extended, expires on December 31, 2023. The lease requires an annual minimum base rent of $94,800 and provides for a maximum annual 2% increase in subsequent years, although the entity has not raised the minimum base rent since the Company entered into a previous lease agreement in 1998. Additionally, the leasing entity is entitled to reimbursement of all taxes, assessments, and any other expenses that arise from ownership. Each of the parties to the lease has agreed to review the terms of the lease every three years at the request of the other party. Rent expense under the lease was approximately $97,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.  The rent expense is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as a selling and administrative expense.

 

The Company also leased a 15,000 square foot warehouse in Montgomery, Alabama near its Kinpak manufacturing facility for the purpose of fabricating and assembling brushes used for cleaning boats, automobiles, and recreational vehicles. The Company paid monthly rent of $4,375 under the lease, which commenced on August 1, 2016 and expired on July 31, 2018. The Company has relocated the brush fabrication and assembly operations from the leased warehouse to Kinpak’s facilities, which have been expanded in connection with the Expansion Project. See Note 8 above.
