"Future Receipts" includes all payments made by cash, check, ACH or other electronic transfer, credit card, debit card, bank card, charge card (each such card shall be referred to herein as a "Payment Card") or other form of monetary payment in the ordinary course of Seller's business. As payment for the Purchased Amount, Buyer will deliver to Seller the Purchase Price, shown above, minus any Origination Fee shown above.
Seller acknowledges that it has no right to repurchase the Purchased Amount from Buyer.
Both patties agree that the obligation of Buyer under this Agreement will not be effective unless and until Buyer has completed its review of the Seller and has accepted this Agreement by delivering the Purchase Price, minus any Origination Fee. Prior to accepting this Agreement, Buyer may conduct a processing trial to confirm its access to the Account and the ability to withdraw the Initial Daily Amount. If the processing trial is not completed to the satisfaction of Buyer, Buyer will refund to Seller all funds that were obtained by Buyer during the processing trial.
Agreement of Seller: By signing below Seller agrees to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including those terms and conditions on the following pages, and further agrees that this transaction is for business purposes and not for personal, family, or household purposes.
/s/ Xxxx Xxxxxx
Agreement of Each Owner: Each Owner signing below agrees to the terms of the Credit Report Authorization below:
/s/ Xxxx Xxxxxx
1. | Delivery of Purchased Amount: Seller must deposit all Future Receipts into the single business banking account specified above, which may not be used for any personal, family or household purposes (the "Account") and must instruct Seller's credit card processor, which must be approved by Buyer (the "Processor") to deposit all Payment Card receipts of Seller into the Account. Seller agrees not to change the Account or add an additional Account without the express written consent of Buyer. Seller authorizes Buyer to debit the Daily Amount from the Account each business day by either ACH or electronic check. Seller will provide Buyer with all required access codes and agrees not to change them without prior written consent from Buyer. Seller will provide an appropriate ACH authorization to Buyer. Seller understands that it is responsible for either ensuring that the Daily Amount is available in the Account each business day or advising Buyer prior to each daily withdrawal of a shortage of funds. Otherwise, Seller will be responsible for any fees incurred by Buyer resulting from a rejected electronic check or ACH debit attempt, as set forth on Appendix A. Buyer is not responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that may result from Buyer's debiting any amount authorized under the terms of this Agreement. Seller understands that the foregoing ACH authorization is a fundamental condition to induce Buyer to accept the Agreement. Consequently, such authorization is intended to be irrevocable. |
2. | Seller May Request Changes to the Daily Amount: The initial Daily Amount is intended to represent the seller’s daily Future Receipts. For as long as no Event of Default has occurred, once each calendar month, Seller may request that Buyer adjust the Xxxxxx mount to more closely reflect the Seller’s actual Future Receipts times the Specified Percentage. Seller agrees to provide Buyer any information requested by Buyer to assist in this reconciliation. No more often than once a month. Buyer may adjust the Daily Amount on a going-forqard basis to more closely reflect the Seller’s actual Future Receipts times the Specified Percentage. Buyer will give Seller notice five business days prior to any such adjustment. After each adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph, the new dollar amount sahll be deemed the Daily Amount until any subsequent adjustment. |
3. | Daily Amount Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Daily Amount shall equal 100% of all Future Receipts. |
4. | Sale of Future Receipts (THIS IS NOT A LOAN): Seller is selling a portion of a future revenue stream to Buyer at a discount, not borrowing money from Buyer. There is no interest rate or payment schedule and no time period during which the Purchased Amount must be collected by Buyer. If Future Receipts are remitted more slowly than Buyer may have anticipated or projected because Seller's business has slowed down, or if the full Purchased Amount is never remitted because Seller's business went bankrupt or otherwise ceased operations in the ordinary course of business, and Seller has not breached this Agreement, Seller would not owe anything to Buyer and would not be in breach of or default under this Agreement. Buyer is buying the Purchased Amount of Future Receipts knowing the risks that Seller's business may slow down or fail, and Buyer assumes these risks based on Seller's representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement that are designed to give Buyer a reasonable and fair opportunity to receive the benefit of its bargain. By this Agreement, Seller transfers to Buyer full and complete ownership of the Purchased Amount of Future Receipts and Seller retains no legal or equitable interest therein. Seller agrees that it will treat Purchase Price and Purchased Amount in a manner consistent with a sale in its accounting records and tax returns. Seller agrees that Buyer is entitled to audit Seller's accounting records upon reasonable Notice in order to verify compliance. Seller waives any rights of privacy, confidentiality or taxpayer privilege in any such litigation or arbitration in which Seller asserts that this transaction is anything other than a sale of future receipts. |
5. | Power of Attorney. Seller irrevocably appoints Buyer as its agent and attorney-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to settle all obligations due to Buyer from Seller, or in the case of a violation by Seller of this Agreement or the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 15 hereof by Seller, including without limitation (i) to obtain and adjust insurance; (ii) to collect monies due or to become due under or in respect of any of the Future Receipts; (iii) to receive, endorse and collect any checks, notes, drafts, instruments, documents or chattel paper in connection with clause (i) or clause (ii) above; (iv) to sign Seller's name on any invoice, xxxx of lading, or assignment directing customers or account debtors to direct |

Each Processor may rely on the previous sentence as written authorization of Seller to provide any information requested by Buyer. Each Processor is hereby irrevocably auth01ized and directed by Seller to follow any instruction of Buyer without inquiry as to Buyer's right or authority to give such instructions. Seller acknowledges the terms of the preceding sentence and agrees not to (a) interfere with Buyer's instructions or a Processor's compliance with this Agreement or (b) request any modification thereto without Buyer's prior written consent.
