9.                   Subordinated Notes – Related Parties

On February 22, 2010 the Company borrowed $250,000 in exchange for issuing Subordinated Notes to each of two Executive Officers and Directors in the amount of $125,000. Each officer and director also received 5,000 stock options at $8.00 per share, the market price at the date of grant. In September 2010, these officers/directors entered into an Intercreditor and Subordination agreement which subordinated their loans to the BCA Loan Agreement (see Note 10 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).  The notes were to become due April 1, 2011 with an interest rate of 1% per month, payable on a monthly basis within 14 days of the end of each month. The Intercreditor  and Subordination Agreement amongst the parties precludes the payment of principal or interest under these subordinated notes unless and until the Senior Obligations have been paid in full or without the express written consent of Senior Lender.  The Subordinated Note Holders agree that the Company’s failure to pay the monthly interest amounts pursuant to the terms of the February 22, 2010 Subordinated Notes will not constitute an event of default on the Notes if the Company is precluded from making these payments pursuant to the limitations included in the loan agreement with BCA. During fiscal year 2012, the Company’s Chairman, at the time, passed away. His surviving spouse has retained this Subordinated Note and continues to acknowledge the terms. Total interest expense for both amounted to $30,000 for the years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
