In addition, he is lending the company $5,000,000 for operating expenses. As a result, the banks agreed to extend the Curtis loan, much of which will be paid off when the company completes the sale of its Philadelphia headquarters to John W. Merriam, a Philadelphia real estate developer, for $7,300,000; Curtis will then lease back for five years the 50% of the building it currently occupies...
