On July 1, 2020, the company entered into a lease agreement for a warehouse and office space.
Excerpts from the lease contract follow:
No interest rate is implied in the agreement. However, it shows that Zed Foods can borrow
money at 5% to finance the acquisition of a similar property under the similar terms, with similar
collateral.
On January 2, 2019, the Zed Foods Corporation issued P2,000,000 of 8% convertible bonds at
par. The bonds will mature on January 1, 2023 and interest is payable annually every January 1.
The bond contract entitles bondholders to receive 6, P100 par value, ordinary shares in exchange
for each P1,000 bond. On the date of issue, the prevailing interest rate for similar debt without the
conversion option is 10%. At the beginning of the current year, the holders of the bonds with total
face value of P1,000,000 exercised their conversion privilege. On that date, the bonds were
selling at 110 and the ordinary share at P42.
