As TechPrecision Corporation (the “Company”) previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 23, 2014, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ranor, Inc., are parties to a Forbearance and Modification Agreement with Santander Bank, N.A. (formerly Sovereign Bank) (the “Bank”) dated January 16, 2014 (the “Forbearance Agreement”) in connection with the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 24, 2006, between Ranor, Inc. and Sovereign Bank, as supplemented and amended (the “Loan Agreement”). Under the Forbearance Agreement, the Bank agreed to forbear from exercising certain of its rights and remedies arising as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with certain financial covenants under the Loan Agreement until March 31, 2014 (the “Forbearance Period”).
On March 31, 2014, the Forbearance Period expired and the Forbearance Agreement terminated pursuant to its terms. The Company has requested, and the Bank is considering, an extension of the Forbearance Period. In addition, the Company continues to engage in discussions with potential alternative financing sources to secure a new financing arrangement to, among other things, replace the financing provided by the Loan Agreement and repay all amounts that remain outstanding under the Loan Agreement.
