ITEM 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

 

The Company borrowed $241,000 from Frances Swanson Trustee of the Frawley Family Trust to meet working capital needs. The loans bear interest at a rate of 10%. The loans were due in 2003 and were secured by real estate investments. In 2002 and prior years, the Company borrowed a total of $2,437,000 from its stockholders to meet real estate investment and working capital needs. The notes are secured by real estate investments. Interest expense to related parties totaled $269,000 and $338,000 during 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

In December 2002, the Company sold one parcel of land for $350,000 to an unrelated third party. The Company used approximately $220,000 of the proceeds from the sale to retire debt secured on the subject property and owed to Frances Swanson, the Chairman’s sister.

 

Due to Schick Shadel Hospital’s continued losses and its inability to pay interest on its secured $1,022,000 loan on the hospital property for more than a year, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously voted to sell or close this business in 2002.

 

Effective February 1, 2002, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with a related party holding outstanding notes payable in the amount of $1,022,000 for the hospital property in Seattle, Washington. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company sold the hospital land, building and related property and equipment to the related party for a purchase price in the amount of the principal of the notes ($1,022,000) and accrued interest ($174,000). Also effective February 1, 2002, the Company entered into a lease agreement with the related party, whereby the Company is permitted to lease the hospital facility for thirty-six months with an option to repurchase the property from the related party at an amount equal to the original principal indebtedness, plus accumulated interest and attorney’s fees. The principal amount of indebtedness was owed to Frances Swanson, individually and Frances Swanson, Successor Trustee of the Frawley Family Trust. Frances Swanson is the Chairman’s sister.

 

On October 1, 2002, the Company entered into an asset sale of the Schick Program to a non-related third party group of former patients of the hospital program in the amount of $316,000, plus various assumed liabilities. The sales price comprised of $50,000 in cash, a note receivable for $250,000 for a term of five years at an interest rate of 8% per annum, and a 5% interest in the new owner’s limited partnership. The Company recorded a gain on the sale of approximately $158,000. The Company incurred legal expenses of approximately $81,000 related to the sale.

 

The Company concurrently assigned the $250,000 note receivable to the Chatham Brothers Barrel Yard PRP Trust as a reduction on the amount owed related to the Toxic Waste Cleanup lawsuit. Also, the $50,000 cash payment was paid to Karr Tuttle & Campbell as a partial payment for legal fees incurred on the sale.

 

As part of the asset sale, the new owners acquired the same option to purchase the hospital real estate as the Company had. In addition, the Company allowed the new owners to operate the Company’s program under the existing state and federal permits until such time as the new owners could obtain their own permits. In January 2003, the Company was informed that the new owners had obtained all the necessary permits to operate the hospital and had ceased using the Company’s permits.

 

During the first six months of 2002, Michael Frawley, the Company’s Chairman, loaned the hospital $55,000 to meet operating expenses. To complete the sale, the Company’s Chairman agreed to release the Company from its indebtedness to him in the amount of $55,000, and agreed to a new note of $55,000 to be paid by the new owners of the hospital program at the end of 2003.


The Company received $69,000 during 2002 from the Frawley Family Trust as an advance on property that the trust intends to purchase. The specific property has not been identified and the terms of the purchase have not been finalized. The advance is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

The Company has charged its principal stockholder for any employee time spent on non-corporate matters. The Company has received from the Frawley Family Trust as reimbursement for payroll expenses $69,000 in 2002. The Company’s auditors have directed the corporation to classify these payments as capital contributions, and these payments are accounted for as capital contributions in the financial statement.
