Loan Agreement between Greystone and IBC
The Loan Agreement (“IBC Loan Agreement”), dated January 31, 2014 and as amended from time to time, among Greystone and GSM (the “Borrowers”) and International Bank of Commerce (“IBC”) provides for certain term loans and a revolver loan.
Effective July 1, 2019, the Borrowers and IBC entered into the Tenth Amendment to the IBC Loan Agreement providing for Term Loan H in the amount of $672,000 with a maturity date of January 1, 2022, for the procurement of production equipment.
The IBC term loans make equal monthly payments of principal and interest in such amounts sufficient to amortize the principal balance as follows: (i) Term Loan A over a seven-year period beginning February 29, 2016 (currently $77,550$76,705 per month), (ii) Term Loan C over a seven-year period beginning November 30, 2017 (currently $25,205 per month) and, (iii) Term Loan D over a four-year period beginning February 10, 2019 (currently $57,469 per month), (iv) Term Loan E over a four-year period beginning February 10, 2019 (currently $23,060 per month), (v), Term Loan F over a five-year period beginning February 28, 2019 (currently $68,849$68,402 per month), and (vi) Term Loan G over a fifteen-year period beginning April 30, 2019 (currently $7,466 per month) and (vii) Term Loan H over 30 months beginning August 1, 2019 (currently $24,203 per month). The monthly payments of principal and interest on the IBC term loans may vary as a result of changes in the prime rate of interest.
The IBC Loan Agreement, as amended, provides a revolving loan in an aggregate principal amount of up to $4,000,000 (the “Revolving Loan”). The amount which can be borrowed from time to time is dependent upon the amount of the borrowing base, as defined in the IBC Loan Agreement, not to exceed $4,000,000. The Revolving Loan bears interest at the greater of the prime rate of interest plus 0.5%, or 5.50% and matures January 31, 2021.2022. The Borrowers are required to pay all interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan on a monthly basis. Any principal on the Revolving Loan that is prepaid by the Borrowers does not reduce the original amount available to the Borrowers.
The IBC Loan Agreement, among other things, requires a quarterly affirmation that the Borrowers have maintained a debt service coverage ratio of 1:25 to 1:00. As of Greystone’s available revolving loan borrowing capacity was $2,900,000 at November 30, 2019, Greystone was not in compliance with this debt service coverage ratio. IBC has issued a waiver, dated January 14, 2020, with respect to this event of noncompliance.2020.
The IBC Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal and other amounts owing under the IBC Loan Agreement from time to time, inaccuracy of representations, violation of covenants, defaults under other agreements, bankruptcy and similar events, the death of a guarantor, certain material adverse changes relating to a Borrower or guarantor, certain judgments or awards against a Borrower, or government action affecting a Borrower’s or guarantor’s ability to perform under the IBC Loan Agreement or the related loan documents. Among other things, a default under the IBC Loan Agreement would permit IBC to cease lending funds under the IBC Loan Agreement and require immediate repayment of any outstanding notes with interest and any unpaid accrued fees.
The IBC Loan Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers. In addition, the IBC Loan Agreement is secured by a mortgage granted by GRE on the real property owned by GRE in Bettendorf, Iowa (the “Mortgage”). GRE is owned by Warren F. Kruger, Greystone’s President and CEO, and Robert B. Rosene, Jr., a director of Greystone. Messrs. Kruger and Rosene have provided a combined limited guaranty of the Borrowers’ obligations under the IBC Loan Agreement, with such guaranty being limited to a combined amount of $6,500,000 (the “Guaranty”). The Mortgage and the Guaranty also secure or guaranty, as applicable, the obligations of GRE under the Loan Agreement between GRE and IBC dated January 31, 2014 as discussed herein.
Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loan
On April 10, 2020, the Company received a SBA Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), with IBC for $3,034,000. The PPP loan bears interest at 1.0% per annum, with monthly payments of principal and interest in the following paragraph.amount of $236,909 commencing on April 14, 2021 and maturing April 10, 2022. The Paycheck Protection Program provides that the PPP loan may be partially or fully forgiven if the funds are used for certain qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. The Company believes that the proceeds from the PPP loan were used for qualifying expenses in accordance with the terms in the CARES Act and plans to apply for forgiveness of the PPP loan in accordance with the requirements and limitations under the CARES Act, the PPP Flexibility Act and SBA regulations and requirements. However, there is no assurance that all or any portion of the PPP loan will be forgiven.
Loan Agreement between GRE and IBC

Note 9. Revenue and Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time a good or service is transferred to a customer and the customer obtains control of that good or receives the service performed. Sales arrangements with customers are short-term in nature involving single performance obligations related to the delivery of goods and generally provide for transfer of control at the time of shipment. In limited circumstances, where acceptance of the goods is subject to approval by the customer, revenue is recognized upon approval by the customer unless, historically, there have been insignificant rejections of goods by the customer. Contract liabilities associated with sales arrangements primarily relate to deferred revenue on prepaid sales of goods. Greystone generally permits returns of product due to defects; however, product returns are historically insignificant. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which Greystone expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for its products.
Greystone’s principal product is plastic pallets produced from recycled plastic resin. Sales are primarily to customers in the continental United States of America. International sales are made to customers in Canada and Mexico which totaled approximately $1,803,0000.8% and $291,000 in fiscal years4.7% of sales during the six months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Greystone’s customers include stocking and non-stocking distributors and direct sales to end-user customers. Sales to the following categories of customers for the six months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, respectively, were as follows:
| Category | 2019 | 2018 | ||||||

Note 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions are used in estimating the fair-value disclosures for financial instruments:
Debt: The carrying amount of notes with floating rates of interest approximate fair value. Fixed rate notes are valued based on cash flows using estimated rates of comparable notes. The carrying amounts reported on the balance sheets approximate fair value.
Note 11. Concentrations, Risks and Uncertainties
Greystone derived approximately 88%86% and 84%88% of its total sales from four customers (three in fiscal year 2019) in fiscal yearsduring the six months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The loss of a material amount of business from one or more of these customers could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.
Greystone purchases damaged pallets from its customers at a price based on the value of the raw material content in the pallet. A majority of these purchases, totaling $1,019,279$524,321 and $814,764$1,019,279 in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively, iswere from one of its major customers.
Robert B. Rosene, Jr., a Greystone director, has provided financing and guarantees on Greystone’s bank debt. As of November 30, 2019,2020, Greystone is indebted to Mr. Rosene in the amount of $4,340,285$3,649,878 for a note payable due January 15, 2021.2022. There is no assurance that Mr. Rosene will renew the note as of the maturity date.
COVID-19 Risks. The impact of COVID-19 has created much uncertainty in the marketplace. To date, the demand for Greystone’s products has not been affected as Greystone’s pallets are generally used logistically by essential entities. The major issue that Greystone has incurred is maintaining adequate work force to meet demand for pallets. The virus has impacted the overall workforce in our operating area as well as Greystone’s workforce due to employees electing to stay at home for protection from COVID-19 and reductions of recruitment of new employees. Management is unable to predict the stability of its workforce as the longer that the virus stays active, the greater the uncertainty.
Greystone is subject to litigation, claims and other commitments and contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the asserted value of these matters may be significant, the company currently does not expect that the ultimate resolution of any open matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Effective January 1, 2021, Greystone’s major customer in the beer industry notified Greystone that the customer will be diversifying its purchases of pallets for case goods with another vendor, but Greystone will continue to be the sole provider of the keg pallet to the customer. This change is expected to decrease Greystone’s annual revenues in the range of about 4% to 5%. Greystone will continue to purchase damaged pallets from the customer. Management has evaluated this impact in conjunction with other contractual adjustments that were made with the customer, and management does not expect that this impact will have a material adverse effect on Greystone’s consolidated financial statements.

Greystone’s primary focus is to provide quality plastic pallets to its existing customers while continuing its marketing efforts to broaden its customer base. Greystone’s existing customers are primarily located in the United States and engaged in the beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries. Greystone has generated, and plans to continue to generate, interest in its pallets by attending trade shows sponsored by industry segments that would benefit from Greystone’s products. Greystone hopes to gain wider product acceptance by marketing the concept that the widespread use of plastic pallets could greatly reduce the destruction of trees on a worldwide basis. Greystone’s marketing is conducted through contract distributors, its President and other employees.
