Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 223 / Tuesday, November 19, 2024 / Notices 2. To my knowledge and belief, Bestar has provided all available documents and information responsive to the CPSC’s requests. 3. To my knowledge and belief, the information provided by Bestar to the CPSC does not, as of the date of the Settlement Agreement, and did not, at the time provided to the CPSC, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary in order to make the statement therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 4. Bestar has insufficient cash or other liquid assets to satisfy a civil penalty payment in excess of $4,000,000. Bestar is wholly owned by shareholders who will not infuse additional capital into the company, and who are under no obligation to do so. 5. As of December 31, 2023, Bestar breached certain loan covenants based on its financial ratios and was in Default under the terms of its Credit Agreement. Bestar has provided copies of the Tolerance Letter entered into between Bestar and its lenders to CPSC staff. As a result of this breach, Bestar has been unable to obtain additional funding from its existing lenders and was operating under a ‘‘Tolerance Period’’ while in Default. Since then, Bestar has been cooperating with its lenders to continue operations while it works toward a long-term solution for its dire financial condition. 91371 6. Bestar has attempted to obtain funding from unaffiliated third-parties but has been unable to secure such funding. To my knowledge, Bestar has provided copies of these documents and communications to CPSC staff. 7. Any civil penalty payment by Bestar in excess of $4,000,000, would cause Bestar significant financial hardship and compel Bestar to cease operations as an ongoing business. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct to my knowledge and belief. I understand that any intentional false statement in this declaration may be a criminal offense under 18 U.S.C. 1001.
