"We also have a long-term loan of $23,000,000 from the Racer Trust which was incurred in March 2013 in connection with the purchase of the equipment at the Shreveport facility. This loan was to be repaid in monthly installments of $173,500 beginning on November 1, 2013, with the entire remaining balance due September 1, 2016. We were delinquent on the first payment, which triggered default interest to be charged on the loan at 18% per annum. Payments made in 2014 were applied to this interest. In March 2015, we entered into an amendment to the promissory note which deferred the installment payments until January 1, 2016 and extended the maturity date to July 1, 2017.
In addition to the agreements made with our lenders to defer cash outlays, we have funded our operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily through the receipt of customer reservations $3,841,000 and the gross proceeds from a placement of convertible subordinated secured notes due September 30, 2022 of $3,677,960."
