00000 (the "Lender") and Global Entertainment Corporation, a Nevada corporation,
whose mailing address is 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxx 000 Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000
(the "Borrower"). The parties hereby agree as follows:
I. REVOLVING CREDIT
1.1 General. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Lender hereby
establishes a credit facility in favor of the Borrower (the "Credit
Facility") under which the Lender will extend credit to the Borrower from
time to time until December 31, 2010 (the "Credit Termination Date"), by
way of Loans pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof. Each extension of credit shall
be in such amount as the Borrower may request, but shall not be less than
an amount equal to $30,000 per request. The aggregate principal amount of
the Credit Facility established herein shall be $300,000 (the
"Commitment"). In consideration for Lender making the Loans described
herein, the Borrower's cumulative outstanding balance shall not exceed at
any one time an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the
Borrower's and any of its subsidiaries' collectable accounts receivable.
The Borrower may obtain credit, repay without penalty and obtain further
credit as provided for under this Agreement, from the date hereof until the
Credit Termination Date.
1.2 Drawings. The Borrower may draw on the Commitment in the following manner:
By submitting a written "Notice of Borrowing" request to Lender, in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A, the terms of which are incorporated by
reference herein, for a cash advance (each such cash advance herein
referred to as a "Loan," or collectively as "Loans"), in a minimum amount
of $30,000 per Loan. Borrower may request a maximum of two (2) Loans in any
one calendar month prior to October 31, 2010. No Loans to Borrower shall be
made by Lender after October 31, 2010 ("Final Loan Date").
1.3 Purpose. The proceeds of the Loans and other extensions of credit under the
Credit Facility shall be used exclusively for general corporate
expenditures as described on the Borrower's "Monthly Cash Flow Forecast-
June 2010 through May 2011," dated May 26, 2010, the terms of which are
incorporated herein by this reference.
1.4 Security. The Credit Facility and Loans shall be secured by one hundred
percent (100%) of Borrower's and its subsidiaries' accounts receivable. A
copy of Borrower's collectable accounts receivable shall be provided to
Lender within three (3) business days following each previous month's end.
In addition, Lender shall cause a UCC-1 Financing Statement to be filed
with the Office of the Secretary of State of Arizona to evidence the
pledged security as described herein.
1.5 Requests for Loans or Credit. Within three (3) business days of Lender's
receipt and approval of Borrower's Notice of Borrowing, Lender shall send
via wire transfer the requested Loan amount to Borrower's bank account as
designated in the Notice of Borrowing. Borrower shall be responsible for
any and all costs associated with the wiring of said Loan funds.
1.6 Interest; Repayment of Loans and Credit.
(a) Interest Rate. Borrower agrees to pay interest on the outstanding
principal balance of each Loan at the Prime Rate plus seven percent
(7%) per annum. Prime Rate shall be defined as the U.S. prime rate as
published in the Wall Street Journal.
Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual daily
outstanding balance of the Loans multiplied by the daily Interest Rate
on a 360-day year basis.
In no event shall the Borrower be obligated to pay any amount under
this Agreement that exceeds the maximum amount allowable by law. If
any sum is collected in excess of the applicable maximum amount
allowable by law, the excess collected shall, at the Lender's
discretion, be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Loans or
returned to the Borrower.
(b) Repayment of Loans.
Payment Schedule.
(i) The Borrower agrees to make payments to the Lender of all accrued
and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal balance of the
Loans as of the end of each calendar quarter end within ten (10)
business days following the expiration of such calendar quarter.
(ii) In addition, if, at the first day of any calendar month during
the term of this Agreement, Borrower has not requested and
received Loans from Lender equal to the entire amount of the
Commitment, Borrower shall be obligated to pay to Lender an
Unused Line of Credit Fee in an amount equal to 0.5% multiplied
by the remaining amount of the Commitment not yet loaned to
Borrower. Borrower shall be obligated to pay such Unused Line of
Credit Fee to Lender within ten (10) business days following the
expiration of each calendar quarter.
(iii)The Borrower may make Loan payments to Lender at any time,
without penalty, on or before the Credit Termination Date in
amounts of not less than $20,000 ("Loan Pre-Payments") per
payment, unless the total amount of any outstanding and unpaid
principal balance of the Loans, and any and all accrued and
unpaid interest and fees ("Total Outstanding Balance") is less
than $20,000, in which case such Loan Pre-Payment shall be equal
to the Total Outstanding Balance. Any Loan Pre-Payments paid by
Borrower will first be applied to and reduce any accrued and
unpaid interest with the remaining amount of such Loan
Pre-Payment(s) applied to the outstanding balance of the Loans.
(iv) Notwithstanding any Loan Pre-Payments made by Borrower prior to
the Final Loan Date and any date thereafter, the Borrower shall
2
pay in full on or before the Credit Termination Date the Total
Outstanding Balance under the Credit Facility.
1.7 Evidence of Indebtedness; Loan Documents. The Credit Facility shall be
evidenced and/or secured by this Agreement, a Master Note in the form
attached as Exhibit B, and a UCC-1 Financing Statement to be filed with the
Office of the Secretary of State of Arizona (collectively the "Loan
Documents").
1.8 Borrower's Obligations. The Borrower's obligations to pay, observe and
