shall advances this loan upon the recording of mortgages or additional mortgages
suitable to CFC on the real property leases in the name of SOUTH SEAS and/or
PACIFIC on the parcels of real property commonly known as 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx 00000 and 00-000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx
00000 (the "REAL PROPERTY").
3.4 Conditioned upon and contingent upon CFC's receipt of the

this agreement, pursuant to certain mortgages, amended mortgages, additional

said payment with said loan proceeds in the form of a check made payable to
Xxxxxx Xxxxx, attorney for XXXXX. CFC shall advance this loan upon the
recording of mortgages or additional mortgages available to CFC on the REAL

3.5 Conditioned upon and contingent upon CFC's receipt of the
$200,000.00 payment and the $50,000.00 payment specified in paragraph 3.2 of
this AGREEMENT, pursuant to certain mortgages, amended mortgages, additional
mortgages and related loan documents to be executed by the parties, CFC will
lend SOUTH SEAS and PACIFIC
4
up to $18,745.51 in the form of a check or other acceptable form of payment to
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, attorney for SOUTH SEAS and PACIFIC. Said loan shall be used
first to secure employee medical benefits through the end of the employee's term
of employment, and second, if any funds remain, to address and resolve other
consumer or employee-related problems faced by SOUTH SEAS' retail customers or
employees as a result of or arising out of their involvement with SOUTH SEAS. No
portion of said sum shall be used to pay any salary due XXXXX. CFC shall advance
this loan upon the recording of mortgages or additional mortgages suitable to
CFC on the REAL PROPERTY, and upon written request from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx.
3.6 Conditioned upon and contingent upon CFC's receipt of the
$200,000.00 payment and the $50,000.00 payment specified in paragraph 3.2 of
this AGREEMENT, pursuant to certain mortgages, amended mortgages, additional
mortgages and related loan documents to be executed by the parties, CFC will
lend SOUTH SEAS and PACIFIC up to $280,000.00; said monies to be used to pay
off, settle or resolve (1) unpaid RETAIL LIENS (as hereinbelow described): (2)
unpaid Department of Motor Vehicles fees on sold vehicles that have not yet been
registered to retail buyers; and (3) return deposits on vehicles ordered from
SOUTH SEAS and not delivered. CFC may, in its sole discretion, decide to
directly or indirectly administer the funding of this portion of the loan, and
may issue CFC checks directly to lienholders, the Department of Motor Vehicles,
or people making deposits to insure that lienholders are paid and titles are
obtained and delivered to customers or lenders, and deposits are returned, as
appropriate. CFC may, in its sole discretion, decide which RETAIL LIENS, fees
or deposits will be paid with its loan funds, and in what order. If CFC decides
to administer this loan, it shall begin doing so within two (2) days of the date
XXXXX delivers CFC the sum of $200,000.00 as provided in paragraph 3.2 above,
and CFC shall proceed expeditiously to satisfy the RETAIL LIENS and pay the
unpaid fees and return deposits up to the amount of the loan. The cost of
administration by CFC personnel of the loan proceeds will not be deducted from
the amount of the loan, however, if CFS decides, in its sole and absolute
discretion, to retain an outside service to assist with the titling of vehicles,
all costs of the outside service may be deducted from the loan, in CFR's sole
and absolute discretion. As used in this AGREEMENT, "RETAIL LIEN" means the lien
on a car taken in
5
trade by SOUTH SEAS from a retail customer, and excludes, for example, liens
placed by wholesale lenders and consignment liens. The known cars with RETAIL
LIENS described in this paragraph are identified in Schedule 1 attached hereto.
In the event CFC elects to administer the loan proceeds as provided in this
paragraph, CFC shall have no further responsibility for payoff, settlement or
resolution of RETAIL LIENS, unpaid Department of Motor Vehicle fees, or deposit
returns, after the exhaustion of the $280,000.000 loan proceeds referred to
herein.
3.7 SOUTHSEAS or CFC is presently in possession of certain vehicles
which were traced in to SOUTH SEAS by retail customers and which were and are
subject to RETAIL LIENS which were not paid by SOUTH SEAS. It is estimated that
the aggregate value of these vehicles is approximately $50,000.00 less than the
aggregate of all liens against the vehicles. Pursuant to certain mortgages,
amended mortgages, additional mortgages and related loan documents to be
executed by the parties, CFC will lend up to $50,000.00 to SOUTH SEAS to allow
SOUTH SEAS to liquidate these vehicles and resolve as many RETAIL LIENS thereon
as possible. CFC may, in its sole and absolute discretion, decide to administer
the sale of these vehicles and the resolution of these RETAIL LIENS. If CFC
elects to administer such sale and the resolution of RETAIL LIENS, it shall
begin doing so within two (2) days of the date XXXXX delivers CFC the sum of
$200,000.00 as provided in paragraph 3.2 above, and shall do so expeditiously.
CFC may, in its sole discretion, decide to pay, settle, or otherwise resolve or
handle said RETAIL LIENS and may, in its sole and absolute discretion, take
possession of said vehicles and the proceeds thereof for the purpose of paying
such RETAIL LIENS. If there are surplus funds after the sale of all said
vehicles and the RETAIL LIENS are discharged, that surplus shall be part of
CFC's COLLATERAL under the WHOLESALE LENDING AGREEMENTS and may be applied to
reduce the balance due pursuant to CFC's various loans. CFC may, in its sole and
absolute discretion, decide which RETAIL LIENS will be paid with its loan funds,
and is what order. The cost of administration by CFC personnel of the loan
proceeds will not be decided from the amount of the loan, however, if CFC
decides, in its sole and absolute discretion, to retain an outside service to
assist with the titling of vehicles, all costs of the outside service may be
deducted from the loan, in CFC's sole and absolute discretion. The known cars
with RETAIL LIENS described in this paragraph are identified in Schedule 2
attached hereto. In the event CFC elects to administer a portion of the loan
referred to in this paragraph, after the $50,000.00 loan proceeds referred to
herein are used, CFC shall have no further responsibility for payment,
settlement, resolution or handling of RETAIL LIENS in connection with vehicles
referred to in this paragraph.

and subsidiaries, if any, and its officers, directors, shareholders, agents,

nothing herein shall be construed to prevent CFC from executing against any

SEAS or PACIFIC from PRICE WATERHOUSE, L.L.P. Nothing herein shall be, or be
construed to be, a release or waiver of any claim CFC may have directly against

L.L.P. Nothing herein shall be, or be construed to be a release or waiver of

Attn: X.X. XxXxxxx
RE: Voluntary Surrender of Collateral by South Seas Motors, Inc. to Chrysler
Financial Corporation, assignee of Chrysler Credit Corporation
Dear Xx. XxXxxxx:
The undersigned, President of South Seas Motors, Inc., dba South Seas

Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx 00000, does hereby acknowledge
that the financial affairs of the Borrower are such that it can no longer
continue its present business operations.
In consequence, the undersigned requests that Chrysler Financial
Corporation take the following actions with reference to the various obligations
and business arrangements between Borrower and Chrysler Credit Corporation.
Chrysler Financial Corporation has repossessed and has in its
possession the new and used motor vehicles in which it holds security interests
under various security arrangements executed at various times by Borrower
pursuant to the laws of the State of Michigan. Borrower hereby consents to the
repossession of its inventory of new and used motor vehicles, and surrenders the
same for the purpose of lease, sale, or other disposition to be accomplished in
a commercially reasonable manner and in accordance with the statutes in such
case made and provided.
Chrysler Financial Corporation holds valid subsisting security
interests in machinery and equipment, fixtures and furniture, tools, supplies,
parts and accessories belonging to Borrower given to secure its various loans.
Borrower requests that Chrysler Financial Corporation take possession of all of
the above personal property and hereby surrenders the same for the purpose of
lease, sale or other disposition to be accomplished in a commercially reasonable
manner and in accordance with the statutes in such case made and provided.
CHRYSLER FINANCIAL CORPORATION
RE: Voluntary Surrender of Collateral
November 15, 1996
Page 2
Chrysler Financial Corporation presently holds an assignment of all
notes, contract rights, accounts receivable and general intangibles of Borrower;
an assignment of all monies now due or coming due to Borrower from any bank,
finance company or other financial institution in connection with Borrower's
sales of retail installment contracts to such financial institutions; and
assignment of all credits now due or coming due to Borrower from Chrysler
Corporation.
You are hereby authorized to make demand upon the holders of all such
credits, monies, notes, contract rights, accounts receivable and general
intangibles for payment to you of the same, to receive all monies paid, and to
give a valid receipt therefor in the Borrower's name. Any payments so received
shall be applied first to expenses of liquidation and then to Borrower's
indebtedness to you.
You are holding certain reserves on retail installment sales contracts
purchased by you from Borrower which you shall continue to hold pursuant to the
terms of the Vehicle Financing and Repurchase Agreement. After all proper
charges against such reserves have been made, the balance remaining, if any,
shall be applied in reduction of other indebtedness due you by Borrower.
The Borrower has this day given to Chrysler Financial Corporation, and
does hereby evidence the transfer of, the exclusive possession of the Borrower's
premises located at South Seas Jeep Eagle, 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx,
Xxxxxx 00000, Oahu Chrysler Jeep, 00-000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx

of storing and preserving all the foregoing described vehicles, and other
personal property until the same may be foreclosed upon and disposed of.
Chrysler Financial Corporation may retain possession of the premises for such
reasonable period of time as may be necessary to foreclose, liquidate, and sell
and dispose of the foregoing collateral. It is agreed that such occupancy
(which is not expected to exceed 20 weeks) shall be free from any claim by or on
behalf of Borrower for rent or storage during such period. This transfer of
possession of the premises is given in consideration of benefits to accrue to
Borrower and to Chrysler Financial Corporation from the Agreement dated
November 15, 1996 between Chrysler Financial Corporation and Borrower.

in-fact to execute, endorse and deliver in the Borrower's name any and all
manufacturers' certificates of origin, title certificates or other documents
required by the State of Hawaii or other State or governmental authority, for
the transfer of ownership of the vehicles subject to Chrysler Financial
Corporation's security interests to the purchasers thereof at foreclosure sale
or other disposition, and for the transfer of titles of repossessed retail
vehicles (including those repossessed subsequent to this date) to purchasers

assets to pay in full all the indebtedness owing Chrysler Financial Corporation
and realizes that there will be a deficiency, the exact amount of which is not
now ascertained. Nothing herein, however, shall be construed in any way or
manner as releasing or discharging guarantors of such indebtedness from their
obligations under various guaranties heretofore given by them.
