CirTran Finalizes New Forbearance Agreement and New Loan Repayment Schedule
SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 28 2011 -- CirTran Corporation (OTCBB: CIRC), an international contract manufacturer of consumer, consumer electronic, and IT products and energy beverages, announced today that it has entered into an amended Forbearance Agreement with YA Global Investments, L.P. of Jersey City, N.J., which includes a new loan repayment schedule. The amended agreement will be included as an exhibit to the company’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Iehab J. Hawatmeh, CirTran’s chairman and president, said his company “made significant progress in 2010 and early in 2011, primarily in continued increases in cash flow and worldwide sales of the Playboy-branded energy drinks manufactured and distributed by CirTran.
“This growth,” he said, “has enabled CirTran to be more pro-active in management of our debt. We have agreed to a debt payment schedule with Y.A. Global with which we are confident we can comply.” CirTran made the first scheduled payment of $225,000 to YA Global last week on the effective date of the new agreement, he said, nothing that the repayment schedule includes monthly payment commitments by CirTran through December 31, 2011.
The amended Forbearance Agreement relates to three debentures issued by CirTran to YA Global, formerly Cornell Capital Partners, LP: on May 26, 2005 for $3,750,000; on December 30, 2005 for $1,500,000 and on August 23, 2006 for $1,500,000. A previous Forbearance Agreement involving the three debentures was announced in August 2009.
“CirTran is grateful for the continued support and confidence of Y.A. Global, as demonstrated by this agreement,” he said. “With more financial stability, the company is better positioned to move forward and continue to build our Playboy-branded beverage business and other operations worldwide.”
