In support of this application, the applicant respectfully shows to the South Bend Economic Development Commission as follows: 1 . That he will cause to be prepared and will present for hearing before the Commission an appropriate form of loan agreement, security agreement, trust indenture and financing statements together with appropriate forms of economic development revenue bonds, transmittal forms, ordinance, notices and resolutions relating to such bond issue in compliance with the laws of the State of Indiana, the Internal Revenue Code of the United States and applicable Regulations . Ms. Irene Gammon April 24, 1985 Page 2 2 . Applicant desires that the bonds be issued in the total principal amount of approximately $1, 250,000 and shall bear interest at the rate of 70% of the National Prime interest rate rounded up to the nearest quarter part and shall be payable over a term of approximately twelve (12) years. 3 . The proceeds of the bond issue will be utilized to pay the cost of acquiring approximately $1, 250,000 in specialty gas cylinders and equipment to be used in the manufacture of compressed gases. The cylinders and equipment shall be leased to Mittler Supply, Inc. at its business located at 3607 South Main Street, South Bend, Indiana. 4.
