LONG-TERM DEBT
 
On October 22, 2008, the Company obtained a $3.0 million term loan from Sovereign Bank to be amortized over five years (the "Sovereign Term Facility"). The Sovereign Term Facility bears interest at LIBOR (0.23% at September 30, 2012) plus 2.5% and is secured by all of the assets of the Company.
 
The terms and conditions of the Sovereign Revolving Facility are applicable to the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
Additionally, the Company and Sovereign Bank entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, in the notional amount of $3 million. Under the interest rate swap, the Company pays an amount to Sovereign Bank representing interest on the notional amount at a rate of 5.8% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR.  The effect of this interest rate swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 5.8% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
On March 9, 2012, the Company entered into an eighth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, which Amendment provides for an additional term loan from Sovereign in the principal amount of $4.5 million to be amortized over five years (the "Sovereign Term Facility 2").  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 shall be used by the Company to purchase tooling and equipment in connection with certain contracts.  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 is subject to the same acceleration provision as the Revolving Credit Loans and the Sovereign Term Facility, which provision allows Sovereign, at its option, to declare all Loans and other outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement as due and payable upon the occurrence of any Event of Default.  The Amendment also requires a prepayment of the Sovereign Term Facility 2 upon the Company's receipt of a termination or cancellation payment in connection with the Designated Contracts in an amount equal to the lesser of 50% of such payment or the outstanding principal balance of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement and Schedule between Sovereign and the Company, dated October 22, 2008, the Company also entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $4.5 million.  Under the Interest Rate Swap, the Company pays an amount to  Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a fixed rate of 4.11% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 300 basis points.  The effect of this Interest Rate Swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 4.11% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.
