Exhibit 10c-1
REVOLVING LOAN AGREEMENT
This Revolving Loan Agreement (the "Agreement") is effective as January
20, 2005 by and between Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (the "Lenders"), and
PivX Solutions, Inc. (the "Borrower").
1. Lenders hereby agree to lend the sum of five hundred thousand dollars
($500,000) to Borrower, and Borrower agrees to borrow the said sum from
Lenders upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.
2. Lender agrees that from time to time during the term of this Agreement
it shall lend at its discretion to Borrower sums which, in the
aggregate principal amount outstanding at any one time, shall not
exceed $500,000 (the "Credit").
(a) The Credit shall be a revolving credit and Borrower may
request advances, repay and re-borrow amounts during the
continuation of the Credit, as Lenders may in their discretion
deem advisable, subject to the applicable provisions of this
Agreement. Each such revolving credit loan made hereunder (an
"Advance") shall have a scheduled maturity date ("Scheduled
Maturity Date") of July 20, 2005, unless previously paid. All
such Advances made hereunder shall be included on the schedule
contained in the "Revolving Promissory Note" referred to in
paragraph 2(c) below which schedule by this reference is made
a part hereof.
(b) This agreement shall terminate on July 20, 2005 and no new
advances hereunder shall be made on or after that date.
Notwithstanding the above, if any Advances made hereunder are
still outstanding as of this Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to such Advances until such
Advances are repaid.
(c) The obligation of Borrower to repay the aggregate unpaid
principal amount of the Advances shall be evidenced by a
single promissory note of Borrower bearing on its face an
appropriate legend stating that such note is subject to the
provisions of this Agreement, which shall be adequately
referred to and incorporated herein (the "Revolving Promissory
Note"). The Revolving Promissory Note shall be payable to the
order of the Lender in a face amount equal to the Credit,
bearing no interest. The Revolving Promissory Note shall be
dated, and shall be delivered to Lenders, on the date of the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Borrower. Lenders
shall, and are hereby authorized by Borrower to, endorse on
the schedule contained on the Revolving Promissory Note, or on
a continuation of such schedule attached thereto and made a
part thereof and hereof, appropriate notations regarding the
Advances evidenced by the Revolving Promissory Note as
specifically provided therein; provided, however, that the
failure to make, or error in making, any such notation shall
not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower
hereunder or under the Revolving Promissory Note.
1
(d) The unpaid principal amount of an Advance shall bear no
interest prior to its Scheduled Maturity Date. After the
Scheduled Maturity Date, the unpaid principal amount of the
Advance shall bear interest until paid at ten percent (10%).
All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year
consisting of 365 days and paid for the actual number of days
elapsed.
(e) Notwithstanding any term hereof to the contrary, Lender
reserves the right to make any Advance hereunder in its sole
and absolute discretion. It is expressly understood and agreed
by Borrower and each of its successors and permitted assigns
that nothing herein creates any liability on Lender, its
successors and permitted assigns that nothing herein creates
any liability on Lender, its successors or permitted assigns
to make any Advance.
(f) Whenever Borrower desires Lenders to make an Advance, it shall
give written notice via email to Lenders of such Advance,
setting forth the amount of the Advance and the date on which
such Advance is to be made.
3. The Lenders hereby agree that any right to receive any payment with
respect to this Agreement prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date shall be
determined and made at the discretion of the CEO, CFO and General
Counsel of Borrower.
4. The proceeds of this Agreement shall be used and dealt with by the
Borrower as part of its capital and shall be subject to the risks of
its business.
5. The Borrower shall have the right to deposit any cash proceeds of this
loan agreement in an account or accounts in its own name in any bank or
trust company.
6. The payment obligation of the Borrower with respect to this Agreement,
together with accrued interest and compensation, shall mature in the
event of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation pursuant to the
Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 or otherwise, bankruptcy,
assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization whether or not
pursuant to the bankruptcy laws, or any other marshalling of the assets
and liabilities of the Borrower, but the right of the Lenders to
receive payment, together with accrued interest or compensation, shall
remain subordinate as required by the provisions of this Agreement.
7. Neither this Agreement nor any note or other instrument made hereunder
is entered into in reliance upon the standing of the Borrower as a
member organization of any commodity exchange or securities exchange or
upon any such exchange's surveillance of the Borrower or its capital
position. The Lenders are not relying upon any such exchange to provide
any information concerning or relating to the Borrower. No such
2
exchange has a responsibility to disclose to the Lenders any
information concerning or relating to the Borrower which it may have
now or at any future time. Neither any such exchange nor any officer or
employee of any such exchange shall be liable to the Lenders with
respect to this Agreement, the Indebtedness, the repayment thereof, any
interest or compensation thereon or any damages resulting from the
breach of this Agreement.
8. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Lenders and the Borrower and
their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and
assigns.
9. Any note or other written instrument evidencing the Indebtedness shall
bear on its face an appropriate legend stating that such note or
instrument is issued subject to the provisions of this Agreement, which
shall be adequately referred to and incorporated by reference herein.
10. This Agreement shall not be subject to cancellation by either party; no
payment shall be made with respect thereto and this Agreement shall not
be terminated, rescinded or modified by mutual consent or otherwise if
the effect thereof would be inconsistent with the Capital Requirements.
11. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California.
12. Any notice required or provided for herein shall be deemed to have been
given or received when it has been delivered in person or has been
deposited, postage prepaid, by United States certified or registered
mail, addressed to the person for whom intended:
