On October 7, 2009, UBPL received a demand notice from the State Bank of India. The notice informs UBPL that an event of default has occurred for failure to make an installment payment on the loan due in June 2009 and demands repayment of the entire outstanding indebtedness of 19.60 Crores (approximately $3,200,000) together with all accrued interest thereon and any applicable fees and expenses by October 10, 2009.
