Properties, in its own words
The Company leases its general office and manufacturing facility in East Rutherford, NJ (approximately 27,000 square feet). In April 2021, the Company extended the lease term for another eight years until August 31, 2029, at an initial monthly rate of $21,237 and ending in a monthly rate of $23,083. Under terms of the lease, the Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of the additional rent to include all real estate taxes, insurance, snow removal, landscaping, and other building charges. The Company is also responsible for the utility costs for the premises.
The Company also leased a small office in Lawrence, Kansas under an operating lease agreement. In October 2025, the Company terminated the lease and closed this office. The Company leases an apartment near the New Jersey Plant for the use of Tel’s Chief Executive Officer. The lease was extended by the Company in April 2026 and is set to expire in April 2027.
The rest of Item 2
We believe that our facilities are adequate for our needs for the foreseeable future. Tel is unaware of any environmental problems in connection with its location and because of the nature of its manufacturing activities, does not anticipate any such problems.

Risk factors and legal proceedings
Legal proceedings
Contingencies are recorded in the audited consolidated financial statements when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable, or otherwise disclosed, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 450, Contingencies (ASC 450). Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. In the event the Company determines that a loss is not probable, but is reasonably possible, and it becomes possible to develop what the Company believes to be a reasonable range of possible loss, then the Company will include disclosures related to such matter as appropriate and in compliance with ASC 450. To the extent there is a reasonable possibility that the losses could exceed the amounts already accrued, the Company will, when applicable, adjust the accrual in the period the determination is made, disclose an estimate of the additional loss or range of loss or if the amount of such adjustment cannot be reasonably estimated, disclose that an estimate cannot be made.
