Presently, our Chairman and President, Eric Langan, personally guarantees all of the commercial bank indebtedness of the Company. Mr. Langan receives no compensation or other direct financial benefit for any of the guarantees. The balance of our commercial bank indebtedness, net of debt discount and issuance costs, as of December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, was $83.5 million and $83.8 million, respectively.

 

Included in the $2.35 million borrowing on November 1, 2018 (included in debt obligations as of December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020) were notes borrowed from related parties—one note for $500,000 (from an employee of the Company who is also the brother of our director Nourdean Anakar) and another note for $100,000 (from a brother of Company CFO, Bradley Chhay) as part of a larger group of private lenders. The terms of these related party notes are the same as the rest of the lender group in the November 1, 2018 transaction.

 

We used the services of Nottingham Creations (formerly Sherwood Forest Creations, LLC), a furniture fabrication company that manufactures tables, chairs and other furnishings for our Bombshells locations, as well as providing ongoing maintenance. Nottingham Creations is owned by a brother of Eric Langan (as was Sherwood Forest). Amounts billed to us for goods and services provided by Nottingham Creations and Sherwood Forest were $0 and $19,144 during the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of both December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, we owed Nottingham Creations and Sherwood Forest $0 in unpaid billings.

 

TW Mechanical LLC (“TW Mechanical”) provided plumbing and HVAC services to both a third-party general contractor providing construction services to the Company, as well as directly to the Company during fiscal 2020 and 2019. A son-in-law of Eric Langan owns a noncontrolling interest in TW Mechanical. Amounts billed by TW Mechanical to the third-party general contractor were $0 and $11,827 for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Amounts billed directly to the Company were $7,130 and $1,825 for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
