due and payable forthwith, whereupon the note shall
become forthwith, due and payable, both as to principal
and interest, without presentment, demand, protest or
other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby
expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the
Note to the contrary notwithstanding;
(ii) take any action at law or in equity to collect the
payments then due and thereafter to become due under the
Note or to enforce performance and observance of any
obligation, agreement or covenant of the Borrower under
this Direct Loan Agreement;
(iii) take possession of the Borrower's interest in the
Collateral without terminating this Direct Loan
Agreement, and pursue remedies of a creditor under the
Uniform Commercial Code and assign, sell or lease, or
otherwise dispose of the Borrower's interest in the
collateral for the account of the Borrower, and the
Borrower shall then be liable for the difference between
the loan payments and other amounts due under this
Direct Loan Agreement and the Note and amounts received
pursuant to such assignment or contract of sale or lease
or other disposition of the borrower's interest in the
Collateral and the amount of such difference shall then
be immediately due and payable. The Borrower hereby
agrees that in the event the Authority does take
possession of the Collateral as provided herein, the
obligation of the Borrower to pay such loan payments due
or to become due under this Direct Loan Agreement and
Note shall survive such repossession;
10
(iv) without further notice or demand or legal process, enter upon any
premises of the Borrower and take possession of the Collateral, all
records and items relating to the Collateral and, at the Authority's
request, the Borrower will assemble the Collateral and such records
and deliver them to the Authority;
(v) sell the Collatral but the Authority shall give the Borrower
reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale of such
Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or other
intended disposition thereof is to be made. The requirement of
reasonable notice shall be met if notice of the sale or other
intended disposition is (1) mailed (by certified mail, postage paid)
to the Borrower at least ten (10) days prior to the time of such sale
or disposition or (2) delivered to the Borrower at least five (5)
days prior to the time of such sale or disposition. At such sale the
Authority may sell the Collateral for cash or upon credit or
otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as it deems advisable
and the Authority may bid or become purchaser at such sale, free of
the right of redemption, which is hereby waived. The Authority may
adjourn such sales at the time and place fixed therefor without
further notice or advertisement and may sell such Collateral as an
entirety or in separate lots as it deems advisable, but the Authority
shall not be obligated to sell all or any part of such Collateral at
the time and place fixed for such sale if it determines not to do so.
Upon the institution of any such action hereunder by the Authority,
the Authority shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for
the Collateral without proof of the depreciation of the value of
same.
(b) If the Authority shall have proceeded to enforce its rights under this
Direct Loan Agreement and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the
Authority, then the Borrower and the Authority shall be restored respectively to
their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and
powers of the Borrower and the Authority shall continue as though no such
proceedings had taken place.
(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the happening
of an Event of Default by the Borrower hereunder, all of the Borrower's right,
title and interest in the Project Facility hereunder or in equity and the
Borrower's rights to possession thereof may be terminated by an action for
foreclosure or repossession in accordance with the statutes of the State of New
Jersey.
11
(d) Upon the institution of any such action by the Authority, the
Authority shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for the Project
Facility.
(e) No remedy herein conferred or reserved to the Authority is intended to
be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such
remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
under this Direct Loan Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or by statute. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power
accruing upon any default shall impair any such right or power or shall be
construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right and power may be exercised
from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle
the Authority to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Section, it shall
not be necessary to give notice other than such notice as may be required in
this Section.
(f) In addition to the above remedies, if the Borrower commits a breach,
or threatens to commit a breach of this Direct Loan Agreement, the Authority
shall have the right and remedy, without posting bond or other security, to have
the provisions of this Direct Loan Agreement specifically enforced by any court
having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such
breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury to the Authority and
that money damages will not provide an adequate remedy therefor.
(g) In the event the Borrower should default under any of the provisions
of this Direct Loan Agreement and the Authority shall require and employ
attorneys or incur other expenses for the collection of payments due or to
become due for the enforcement or performance or observance of any obligation or
agreement on the part of the Borrower herein contained, the Borrower shall on
demand therefor pay to the Authority, the reasonable fees of such attorneys and
other expenses so incurred by the Authority.
(h) The Authority shall not be required to do any act whatsoever or
exercise any diligence whatsoever to mitigate the damages to the Borrower if an
Event of Default shall occur hereunder.
Section 19. FURTHER ASSURANCES AND CORRECTIVE INSTRUMENTS. The Borrower
---------------------------------------------
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver such supplements and further instruments
and perform such acts as the Authority may reasonably require for carrying out
the intention of or facilitating the performance of this Direct Loan Agreement
or the Note.

requirements: (1) receipt of a
statement or invoice together with a
requisition signed by the Borrower
stating (a) the name and address of
the person or firm to be paid; and
(b) the amount to be paid; or if the
Borrower has already paid the
invoice, proof of payment; and (2)
compliance with the terms of this
commitment letter.
CONDITIONS:
----------
1. The Authority shall receive evidence prior to closing that the Borrower has
contributed not less than $510,000 to the Project as equity.
2. The Authority shall receive at least 10 days prior to closing current
financial statements for the Borrower not more than ninety (90) days old at
the time of closing.
3. The Borrower shall obtain a landlord's waiver from the owner of the Laurel
Oak Road property recognizing the Authority's lien on all machinery and
equipment by the Borrower. A copy of the executed lease is required.
The interests of the Borrower and the Authority are or may be different and may
conflict. The Authority's attorney represents only the Authority and does not
represent the Borrower in the Loan transaction. The Borrower, therefore, is
advised to employ an attorney licensed to practice in the State of New Jersey,
of the Borrower's own choice, to represent the Borrower's interest in the Loan
transaction.
3
The credit of the Borrower and all other features of the transaction shall be as
represented to the Authority without material adverse change. The Borrower shall
not be involved in any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding.
The Authority will require evidence satisfactory to it and its counsel that
assets pledged to it as security for this financing are free and clear of any
and all security interest, except as set forth herein. The Authority reserves
the right to pre-file financing statements prior to closing.
Counsel to the Authority must be satisfied with respect to the legality,
validity, binding effect, and enforceability of all instruments, agreements, and
documents used to effect and consummate the transactions contemplated herein.
By your acceptance of this commitment letter, you acknowledge this letter is
issued at a time when the Authority has not undertaken a full business, credit,
and legal analysis of the Borrower and/or the transaction(s) contemplated by
this commitment. As a result of further investigation and analysis by the
Authority and its counsel, information of which we are not presently aware may
be revealed and/or certain other impediments to closing may come to our
attention. Our mutual efforts will be directed toward the closing of this
financing. The Authority may require the financing to be restructured or
otherwise modified. As lender, the Authority is the sole judge of what is an
impediment and whether the impediment is so serious as to preclude closing.
Each unsatisfied covenant, term and condition of this commitment which is not
expressly waived in writing by the Authority shall survive any closing
hereunder. In case of any conflict between any unwaived and unsatisfied
covenant, term or condition of this commitment and the provisions of the loan
documents delivered at or pursuant to any closing regarding this financing, the
unwaived and/or unsatisfied covenant, term or condition of this commitment shall
control.
This commitment is subject to acceptance by the Borrower of the terms and
conditions contained herein and in the General Terms and Conditions of Lending.
This commitment letter must be signed and returned to the undersigned together
with a check in the amount of $2,500 made payable to the NJEDA for the
non-refundable direct loan commitment fee. In addition, $2,500 is payable to the
NJEDA at closing for direct loan closing costs.
This commitment shall terminate and the Authority shall have no further
obligation or liability hereunder if this letter is not signed and returned
together with the applicable fees on or before December 31, 1996 ("Acceptance
Date"). An extension fee of $750 is required to extend the Acceptance Date an
additional 15 days.
In the event this financing is not closed on or before March 31, 1997 ("Closing
Date"), the Authority's obligation to provide financing hereunder shall
terminate and the Borrower will be required to submit a new application.
Please contact Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx at (000) 000-0000 if you have any questions
regarding this matter.
