Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Mr. Jones, our chief executive officer, is also president of Jones & Cannon, a Texas professional corporation, which has provided legal services to us and which may continue to provide legal services to us in the future, and which rents to us our executive offices. We currently owe Jones & Cannon more than $261,716 for legal services rendered. Jones & Cannon had also been providing the limited amount of executive office space we require, and some clerical and other services required for our operations without charge until June 5, 2000, under an oral agreement with Mr. Jones. We became obligated to pay Jones & Cannon $1500 per month for this office space effective June 15, 2000, and we currently owe Jones & Cannon $29,000 in past due rent.
Mr. Ferris, our president, is the owner of Ferris Holdings, L.L.C., which is landlord on the lease for our production facilities in Phoenix, Arizona. We currently owe Ferris Holdings, L.L.C. approximately $40,600 in arrearage on our lease.
In December, 1997, we agreed to redeem at par value an aggregate of 1,505,399 shares of the common stock held by the ten former shareholders of First Brewery of Dallas, Inc., a company we had acquired in April, 1997. The aggregate redemption price was to have been $7,527.02. That redemption was to have occurred no later than March 31, 1998. However, we did not have sufficient funds to honor this commitment and are currently in default under the agreement. Messrs. Jones and Aleckner and Ms. Biggs were among those whose shares were to have been redeemed. In February, 2000, we and Messrs. Jones and Aleckner agreed that the shares that were to have been redeemed from those two individuals would not be redeemed. We expect to redeem the remaining shares during the third quarter of 2003.
During the period from July, 1997 through May, 1998 Mr. Jones, our chairman of the board and chief executive officer, lent us an aggregate of $90,000 for use as operating capital. Of this amount, $65,000 was subsequently eliminated when Mr. Jones accepted in full satisfaction of that debt certain equipment securing bank debt which Mr. Jones had guaranteed, leaving a balance of $25,000.00. This indebtedness is evidenced by an unsecured demand promissory note at an annual interest rate of 12 % per annum. During the period from November, 2000 through December, 2001, Mr. Jones lent us an aggregate of $81,000 for use as operating capital, for a total indebtedness of $106,000. This $81,000 indebtedness is evidenced by unsecured promissory notes without interest.
During the period from March, 2001 through April, 2002, Mr. John F. Aleckner, Jr., one of our directors, lent us an aggregate of $274,500 for use as operating capital. This indebtedness is evidenced by unsecured promissory notes with no annual interest rate.
NOTE - OPERATING CAPITAL TO PAY FOR SHORT TERM OBLIGATIONS NORMALLY IS FUNDED BY THE BUSINESS - $275K NO INTEREST WOW!
During the period from June, 1993 through April, 2001, Dr. Dave and Nancy Ferris, who are shareholders, lent us an aggregate of $172,531 for use as operating capital. During October of 2001, Dr. Dave and Nancy Ferris lent us $21,500 for use as operating capital, for a total indebtedness of $194,031. This $21,500 indebtedness is evidenced by an unsecured promissory note with no annual interest rate.
These are my personal comments, observations, opinions and should not be relied upon for any investment decisions, and as always read the SEC filings for the facts of the company
