Corporation, a Delaware corporation, having offices located at 00000 Xxxxxxxx
Xx., Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000 (hereinafter called "Secured Party").
WHEREAS, Debtor is engaged in business as an authorized dealer of FORD motor
Company and desires Secured Party to finance the acquisition by Debtor in the
ordinary course of its business of new and unused vehicles sold and distributed
by Ford Motor company and/or other authorized sellers and of used vehicles (all
such unused and used vehicles being hereinafter collectively called the
"Vehicles").
WHEREAS, Secured Party is willing to provide wholesale financing to Debtor to
finance the acquisition of Vehicles by Debtor by making loans or advances to
Debtor to finance the acquisition by Debtor of Vehicles.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises herein contained and
other good and valuable consideration paid by each party to the other, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and intending to be
legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1.0 Financing - Secured Party agrees to extend to Debtor wholesale financing by
making loans or advances to Debtor to finance the acquisition by Debtor of
Vehicles from sellers thereof, on the terms and conditions set forth in
Paragraph 2.1 herein or as set forth in the Vehicle financing terms and
conditions as they may be made available to Debtor from time to time by
Secured Party.
For the purposes of this Agreement, loans or advances provided by Secured
Party directly to either Debtor or to the seller of Vehicles to Debtor are
herein called "Advances". Debtor acknowledges that (x) the maximum amount
of Advances which will be made by Secured Party hereunder will be
established from time to time by Secured Party in its sole discretion and
(y) all such Advances shall be made on and shall be subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the
making of any Advance hereunder shall be at the option of Secured Party and
shall not be obligatory, and that the right of Debtor to request that
Secured Party make Advances may be terminated at any time by Secured Party
at its election without notice.
2.0 Evidence of Advances and Payment Terms - Each Advance shall be made at such
time as Debtor shall request in accordance with the then-effective Vehicle
financing terms and conditions referred to above. Debtor will execute and
deliver to Secured Party from time to time its demand promissory notes in
aggregate principal amount equal to that amount agreed to by Debtor and
Secured Party from time to time, such demand promissory notes (the
"Promissory Notes") to evidence the liability of Debtor to Secured Party on
account of all Advances. The maximum liability of Debtor under this
Agreement shall at any time be equal to the aggregate principal amount of
all Advances at the time outstanding hereunder plus interest and such other
amounts as may be due under this Agreement. Debtor will pay to Secured
Party on demand the aggregate principal amount of all Advances from time to
time outstanding, and will pay upon demand the interest due thereon and
such other additional charges as Secured Party shall determine from time to
time.
In consideration of Secured Party's making Advances, Debtor will pay to
Secured Party interest at the rate(s) per annum designated by Secured Party
from time to time on the amount of each Advance made by Secured Party
hereunder from the date of such Advance until the date of repayment to
Secured Party of the full amount thereof. Secured Party will give notice to
Debtor of the interest rate(s) established by it from time to time under
the terms hereof, and each such notice shall constitute an agreement
between Debtor and Secured Party as to the applicability to the Advances of
the interest rate(s) contained therein, to be applicable from the dates
stated in such notice until such interest rate(s) are changed by subsequent
notice given by Secured Party pursuant to this sentence. All interest
accrued on the Advances shall be payable monthly by Debtor, and shall be
due upon receipt by Debtor of the statement of Secured Party setting forth
the amount of such accrued interest.
2.1 Debtor agrees that financing pursuant to this Agreement shall be used
exclusively for the purpose of acquiring Vehicles for Debtor's inventory
and Debtor shall not sell or otherwise dispose of such Vehicles except by
sale in the ordinary course of business. If so requested by Secured Party,
Debtor agrees to maintain a separate bank account into which all cash
proceeds of such sales or other dispositions of such Vehicle will be
deposited. Debtor further agrees that upon the sale of each Vehicle with
respect to which an Advance has been made by Secured Party, Debtor will
promptly remit to Secured Party the total amount then outstanding of
Secured Party's Advance on each such Vehicle unless other terms of
repayment have been agreed to by Secured Party. Debtor agrees to hold in
trust for Secured Party and shall forthwith remit to Secured Party, to the
extent of any unpaid and past due indebtedness hereunder, all proceeds of
each Vehicle when received by Debtor, or to allow Secured Party to make
direct collection thereof and credit Debtor with all sums received by
Secured Party.
3.0 Security - Debtor hereby grants to Secured Party a first and prior security
interest in and to each and every Vehicle financed hereunder, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired by way of replacement, substitution, addition
or otherwise, together with all additions and accessions thereto and all
proceeds thereof. Further, Debtor also hereby grants to Secured Party a
security interest in and to all Chattel Paper, Accounts whether or not
earned by performance and including without limitation all amounts due from

or affiliates, Contract Rights, Documents, Instruments, General
Intangibles, Consumer Goods, Inventory of Automotive Parts, Accessories and
Supplies, Equipment, Furniture, Fixtures, Machinery, Tools, and Leasehold
Improvements, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by way of
replacement, substitution, addition or otherwise, together with all
additions and accessions thereto and all proceeds thereof, as additional
security for each and every indebtedness and obligation of Debtor is set
forth herein. The security interest hereby granted shall secure the prompt,
timely and full payment of (1) all Advances, (2) all interest accrued
thereon in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Promissory
Notes, (3) all other indebtedness and obligations of Debtor under the
Promissory Notes, (4) all costs and expenses incurred by Secured Party in
the collection or enforcement of the Promissory Notes or of the obligations
of the Debtor under this Agreement, (5) all monies advanced by Secured
Party on behalf of Debtor for taxes, levies, insurance and repairs to and
maintenance of any Vehicle or other collateral, and (6) each and every
other indebtedness or obligation now or hereafter owing by Debtor to
Secured Party including any collection or enforcement costs and expenses or
monies advanced on behalf of Debtor in connection with any such other
indebtedness or obligations.

insurance proceeds on the Collateral, money, chattel paper, goods received
in trade including without limitation vehicles received in trade, contract
rights, instruments, documents, accounts whether or not earned by
performance, general intangibles, claims and tort recoveries relating to

to time with respect to specific Vehicles, each Vehicle and the proceeds
thereof and all other Collateral hereunder shall constitute security for
all obligations of Debtor to Secured Party secured hereunder.
3.2 Debtor hereby agrees that upon request of the Secured Party it will take
such action and/or execute and deliver to Secured Party any and all
documents (and pay all costs and expenses of recording the same), in form
and substance satisfactory to Secured Party, which will perfect in Secured
Party its security interest in the Collateral in which Secured Party has or
is to have a security interest under the terms of this Agreement.
3.3 Secured Party's security interest in the Collateral shall attach to the
full extent provided or permitted by law to the proceeds, in whatever form,
of any disposition of said Collateral or to any part thereof by Debtor
until such proceeds are remitted and accounted for as provided herein.
Debtor will notify Secured Party before Debtor signs, executes or
authorizes any financing statement regardless of coverage.
3.4 Debtor shall be responsible for all loss and damage to the Collateral and
agrees to keep Collateral insured against loss or damage by fire, theft,
collision, vandalism and against such other risks as Secured Party may
require from time to time. Insurance and policies evidencing such insurance
shall be with such companies, in such amount and such form as shall be
satisfactory to Secured Party. If so requested by Secured Party, any or all
such policies of insurance shall contain an endorsement, in form and
substance satisfactory to Secured Party, showing loss payable to Secured
Party as its interest may appear, and a certificate of insurance evidencing
such coverage will be provided to Secured Party.
4.0 Debtor's Warranties - Debtor warrants and agrees that the Collateral now is
and shall always be kept free of all taxes, liens and encumbrances, except
as specifically disclosed in Paragraph 4.1 below or provided for in
Paragraph 3.0 above, and Debtor shall defend the Collateral against all
other claims and demands whatsoever and shall indemnify, hold harmless and
defend Secured Party in connection therewith. Any sum of money that may be
paid by Secured Party in release or discharge of any taxes, liens or
encumbrances shall be paid to Secured Party on demand as an additional part
of the obligation secured hereunder. Debtor hereby agrees not to mortgage,
pledge or loan (except for designated demonstrators as agreed to in advance
by Secured Party in writing) the Vehicles and shall not license, title,
use, transfer or otherwise dispose of them except as provided in this
Agreement. Debtor agrees that it will execute in favor of Secured Party any
form of document which may be required to evidence further Advances by
Secured Party hereunder, and shall execute such additional documents as
Secured Party may at any time request in order to conform or perfect
Debtor's title to or Secured Party's security interest in the Vehicles.
