Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Effective March 4, 2013, EMRISE Corporation’s (the “Company”) wholly-owned subsidiary, Pascall Electronics, Ltd., a United Kingdom corporation (“PEL”), entered into a Contract for the Sale of Freehold Land (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among, Longford Estates Limited (In Administration), as seller, Matthew James Cowlishaw and Richard Michael Haws, as the administrators, and PEL, as buyer. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, PEL purchased a 35,000 square foot building and land located in Ryde, on the Isle of Wight in England (the “PEL Facility”), which currently serves as PEL’s headquarters for the purchase price of £1.8 million (approximately US$2.7 million).

 

In order to complete the purchase of the PEL Facility, PEL entered into a 20-year mortgage (the “Mortgage”) with Lloyds TSB Bank in the amount of a £1.4 million (approximately US$2.2 million) secured by the PEL Facility. The Mortgage matures on March 1, 2033, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.8% per annum for a period of fifteen (15) years and at a variable rate linked to LIBOR (London Interbank Offer Rate) for the remaining five (5) years. Beginning April 1, 2013, PEL will make monthly payments of £9,118.75 (approximately US$13,800).
