Re: Loan Agreement
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter agreement (the “Agreement”) shall set forth the terms pursuant to which Chu Li An (the “Lender”) will advance funds to American Jianye Greentech Holdings, Ltd. (the “Company”).
1. Lender will lend the Company with initial amount of $100,000 which can be increased to $1,000,000 up to the lender, those money can be used to pay operating expenses as approved by AJGH. The funds will be held in escrow pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), dated the date of this Agreement, among the Lender and the Company. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, any disbursement from escrow shall require the approval of the Lender, and the Company shall have no authority to authorize any payment from escrow. The Company shall have no right to any funds held in escrow until and unless the disbursement of such funds is authorized by the Lender.
2. Contemporaneously with the initial payment into escrow, the Company will execute and deliver to the Lender its 6% demand promissory note (the “Note”) in the form of Exhibit A to this Agreement in the principal amount of $100,000. The Lender shall make notations on the Note to reflect advances made to the escrow account, payments by the Company and accrued interest.
3. The Company represents and warrants to Lender that:
(a) The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has full legal right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Credit Documents. The “Credit Documents” shall mean this Agreement, the Note, the Escrow Agreement and any other instruments or documents executed by the Company in connection with the loan being made pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) The execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents by the Company do not and will not require (i) any consent of any other person or (ii) any consent, license, permit, authorization or other approval of any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority, or any notice to, exemption by, any registration, declaration or filing with or the taking of any other action in respect of, any such court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other governmental authority.
(c) Neither execution or delivery of any Credit Document, nor the fulfillment of or compliance with its terms and provisions will (i) violate any the articles of incorporation of the Company or (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or cause a default under, any material agreement, instrument, franchise, license or concession to which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) is a party or bound, other than those conflicts, breaches or defaults, if any, which would not reasonably be expected to result in any material adverse change in the Company’s business, prospects or financial condition.
(d) Each Credit Document has been duly and validly executed, issued and delivered by the Company, is in proper legal form for prompt enforcement and is are the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, except to the extent limited by (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance, and other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and (b) the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity.
4. The Company shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered), at the Company’s expense, any and all other and further instruments which may be reasonably requested by the Lender to cure any defect in the execution and delivery of any Credit Document or more fully to describe particular aspects of the agreements and undertakings set forth in the Credit Documents.
5. In the event that the Company fails to pay the Note upon demand, the Lender shall have the right to enforce or avail itself of any and all powers, rights and remedies available at law or provided in this Agreement, the Note, the other Credit Documents.
6. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, it is expressly provided that in no case or event shall the aggregate of any amounts accrued or paid pursuant to this Agreement which under applicable laws are or may be deemed to constitute interest ever exceed the maximum non-usurious interest rate permitted by applicable state or federal laws. In this connection, the Company and the Lender stipulate and agree that it is their common and overriding intent to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws. In furtherance thereof, none of the terms of this Agreement shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable laws. The Company shall ever be liable for interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable laws. If, for any reason whatever, such interest paid or received during the full term of the applicable indebtedness produces a rate which exceeds the maximum rate permitted by applicable laws, the Lender shall credit against the principal of such indebtedness (or, if such indebtedness shall have been paid in full, shall refund to the payor of such interest) such portion of said interest as shall be necessary to cause the interest paid to produce a rate equal to the maximum rate permitted by applicable laws. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall, to the extent required to avoid or minimize usury and to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the applicable Indebtedness so that the interest rate does not exceed the maximum rate at which interest may legally be charged. The provisions of this Section 8 shall control all agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between the Company and the Lender.
7. Each written instrument required by this Agreement, the Note or the other Credit Documents to be furnished to the Lender shall be duly executed by the person or persons specified (or where no particular person is specified, by such person as Lender shall require), duly acknowledged where reasonably required by the Lender and, in the case of affidavits and similar sworn instruments, duly sworn to and subscribed before a notary public duly authorized to act by governmental authority; shall be furnished to the Lender in one or more copies as required by the Lender; and shall in all respects be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender and to its legal counsel.
8. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, the Note, the other Credit Documents and any other document executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, and in any certificates or other documents or instruments delivered pursuant to this Agreement, the Note, the other Credit Documents or any other document executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Note, the other Credit Documents and the other documents executed pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, and shall continue in full force and effect until full payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and/or secured by the Credit Documents, complete performance of all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement and final termination of the Lender’s obligations, if any, to make any further advances under the Note or to provide any other financial accommodation to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (provided, however, that all reimbursement obligations, indemnification and hold harmless obligations and other similar obligations of the Company under any of the Credit Documents shall survive such payment, performance and termination). All such covenants, agreements, representations and warranties shall be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the Company, but any attempted assignment of any rights of the Company hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender shall be null and void. The Lender may, without consent of any other party, cause one or more of its affiliates to carry out all or part of the transactions contemplated hereby and otherwise assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder to any such party, so long as such affiliate is a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Lender, and the Lender may designate another party to make any advances under this Agreement subsequent to the initial advance made pursuant to this Agreement.
9. To the extent not prohibited by applicable law and except as otherwise expressly limited herein, the Company will pay all of the following costs and expenses and reimburse the Lender for any and all of the following expenditures incurred or expended from time to time, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred, in connection with all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses for the preparation, negotiation, documentation, closing, renewal, revision, modification, increase, review or restructuring of any loan or credit facility pursuant to the Credit Documents.
