HOMI undertakes to repay the entire Loan, in the manner set forth below.
|
|

On a monthly basis, for each month of the Operation, commencing as of the first calendar month following installation and start-up of the Minibar System at the Hotel (the “Effective Date”):
|
|
a.
|
HOMI will deliver to Lender a copy of its Affiliate’s monthly invoices to the Hotel in respect of the full amount of monthly net revenues from the Operations (“HOMI’s Invoices to the Hotel”), which the Hotel is obliged to pay to the Affiliate under the Outsource Agreement for that month (“Net Revenues from Hotel”).

|
|
