Item 8.01 Other Events.
     On November 6, 2009, President Obama signed the Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 (HR 3548) into law. The law includes a provision that will allow American Locker Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “American Locker”) to carryback its net operating loss (“NOL”) for federal income tax purposes from either 2008 or 2009 up to five years and obtain a refund to the extent that taxes were paid in the previous five years. As a result of this law, the Company anticipates receiving a refund in the amount of approximately $1,400,000 within 60 days.
     In anticipation of the positive impact this NOL carryback will have on the Company’s working capital, the Company has committed to grow its manufacturing business and provide more competitive financing terms to our customers. The Company’s growth of its manufacturing business has led to the hiring of additional employees in the fourth quarter of 2009. Additionally, the Company is using this refund to reinstate a portion of the employee wage reduction that the Company implemented in January 2009.
     Over the last six months, the Company was actively involved in the lobbying efforts of the NOL Coalition which led to the successful implementation of expanded NOL relief.
