Item
1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
In
December 2008, we, along with our wholly-owned affiliate, Sparta Funding LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company, entered into a $25,000,000 committed,
extendable, secured credit facility with DZBank AG Deutsche
Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt am Main, New York Branch pursuant to a
Revolving Credit Agreement (the “RCA”). We were required to satisfy
certain tangible net worth and committed capital thresholds as a condition of
accessing funds under the DZBank credit facility. On October 13, 2009, we
notified DZ Bank that we believed we had satisfied such conditions and requested
that we be allowed to start utilizing the credit facility. As we were
approaching the one year anniversary of the signing of the RCA we formally
requested that the RCA be extended for one year as provided for in the RCA.
Subsequently, without permitting us to commence utilizing the credit facility,
on December 14, 2009, the Company was verbally notified by representatives of DZ
Bank that the Company’s request to extend the term of its Revolving Credit
Agreement (the “RCA”) for one year was denied due to DZ Bank’s German parent’s
concern over the United States general economic condition and, more
specifically, the weakness in the overall U.S. consumer market. Therefore, the
RCA will terminate pursuant to its terms on December 18, 2009.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to
