Facilities Agreement

 

In January 2006, the Company entered into a one-year agreement to lease a 4,100 sq. ft. facility in San Clemente, California at a rate of $3,650 per month commencing on April 1, 2006. The lease provides the Company with an option to extend the lease for additional one-year terms through March 31, 2012. The monthly lease payment increased to $3,895 commencing on April 1, 2008. The lease was extended on April 1, 2010 for an additional year and the lease payment at the same monthly rate. No further extensions on the lease to date.

 

In late December 2011, the Company was served with an unlawful detainer action brought by the landlord for non-payment of $15,690 in back rent. The Company is currently negotiating with the landlord to pay the balance due and remain at the facility.

 

Assuming the Company can successfully negotiate a continuance on the lease, future minimum facilities lease payments as of October 31, 2011 are as follows:

 

2011   $ 19,475  
2012   $
