STANDARD MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE AGREEMENT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. Sale of Future Receipts. Merchant(s) hereby sell, assign, and transfer to WAVE (making WAVE the absolute owner) in consideration of the funds provided (“Purchase Price”) specified above, all of each Merchant’s future accounts, contract rights, and other obligations arising from or relating to the payment of monies from each Merchant’s customers and/or other third party payors (the “Receivables”, defined as all payments made by cash, check, credit or debit card, electronic transfer, or other form of monetary payment in the ordinary course of each merchant’s business), for the payment of each Merchant’s sale of goods or services until the amount specified above (the “Receivables Purchased Amount”) has been delivered by Merchant(s) to WAVE. Each Merchant hereby acknowledges that until the Receivables Purchased Amount has been received in full by WAVE, each Merchant’s Receivables, up to the balance of the Receivables Purchased Amount, are the property of WAVE and not the property of any Merchant. Each Merchant agrees that it is a fiduciary for WAVE and that each Merchant will hold Receivables in trust for WAVE in its capacity as a fiduciary for WAVE.
The Receivables Purchased Amount shall be paid to WAVE by each Merchant irrevocably authorizing only one depositing account acceptable to WAVE (the “Account”) to remit the percentage specified above (the “Specified Percentage”) of each Merchant’s settlement amounts due from each transaction, until such time as WAVE receives payment in full of the Receivables Purchased Amount. Each Merchant hereby authorizes WAVE to ACH debit the specified remittances and any applicable fees listed in Section 2 from the Account on a daily basis as of the next business day after the date of this Agreement and will provide WAVE with all required access codes and monthly bank statements. Each Merchant understands that it will be held responsible for any fees resulting from a rejected ACH attempt or an Event of Default (see Section 2). WAVE is not responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that may result from WAVE’s ACH debiting the Specified Percentage amounts under the terms of this Agreement.
2. Additional Fees. In addition to the Receivables Purchased Amount, each Merchant will be held responsible to WAVE for the following fees, where applicable:
A. $ 40,000.00 - to cover underwriting and the ACH debit program, as well as related expenses. This will be deducted from payment of the Purchase Price.
B. Wire Fee - Merchant(s) shall receive funding electronically to the Account and will be charged $50.00 for a Fed Wire or $0.00 for a bank ACH. This will be deducted from payment of the Purchase Price.
C. Blocked Account/Default - $2,500.00 - If WAVE considers an Event of Default to have taken place under Section 32.
D. UCC Fee - $195.00 – to cover WAVE filing a UCC-1 financing statement to secure its interest in the Receivables Purchased Amount. A $195.00 UCC termination fee will be charged if a UCC filing is terminated.
E. Court costs, arbitration fees, collection agency fees, attorney fees, expert fees, and any other expenses incurred in litigation, arbitration, or the enforcement of any of WAVE’s legal or contractual rights against each Merchant and/or each Guarantor, if required, as explained in other Sections of this Agreement.
3. Cap on Collection of the Receivables Purchased Amount. The amount that WAVE will collect from Merchant(s) towards the Receivables Purchased Amount during any specific WEEK will be capped at $ 35,000.00 (the “Cap”). If the Specified Percentage of all Receivables for a specific WEEK is less than the Cap, then in addition to the Specified Percentage of Receivables for that WEEK, WAVE will be permitted to collect any Receivables it did not previously collect due to the Cap such that the total amount collected during that WEEK does not exceed the Cap. The Cap is not applicable to make up for a business day on which WAVE is closed and does not ACH debit the Account, to subsequent attempts to collect a rejected or blocked ACH payment, to debit any amount due pursuant to a reconciliation as set forth in Section 4, for the collection of any of the fees listed in Section 2, or if any Event of Default listed in Section 32 is considered by WAVE to have taken place.

4. Reconciliations. Any Merchant may request that WAVE conduct a reconciliation in order to ensure that the amount that WAVE has collected equals the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables under this Agreement. A request for a reconciliation by any Merchant must be made by giving written notice of the request to WAVE or by sending an e-mail to xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx stating that a reconciliation is being requested. In order to effectuate the reconciliation, any Merchant must produce with its request the login and password for the Account and any and all statements covering the period from the date of this Agreement through the date of the request for a reconciliation. WAVE will complete each reconciliation requested by any Merchant within two business days after receipt of proper notice of a request for one accompanied by the information and documents required for it. WAVE may also conduct a reconciliation on its own at any time by reviewing Merchant(s)’s Receivables covering the period from the date of this Agreement until the date of initiation of the reconciliation, each such reconciliation will be completed within two business days after its initiation, and WAVE will give each Merchant written notice of the determination made based on the reconciliation within one business day after its completion. If a reconciliation determines that WAVE collected more than it was entitled to, then WAVE will credit to the Account all amounts to which WAVE was not entitled. If a reconciliation determines that WAVE collected less than it was entitled to, then WAVE will debit from the Account all additional amounts to which WAVE was entitled. Nothing herein limits the amount of times that a reconciliation may be requested or conducted.
5. Prepayments. Although there is no obligation to do so, any Merchant may prepay any amount towards the Receivables Purchased Amount. There will be no penalty for any prepayment made by any Merchant. Any Merchant may elect to terminate this Agreement by prepaying WAVE the amount of the balance of the Receivables Purchased Amount at that time.
6. Merchant Deposit Agreement. Merchant(s) shall appoint a bank acceptable to WAVE, to obtain electronic fund transfer services and/or “ACH” payments. Merchant(s) shall provide WAVE and/or its authorized agent with all of the information, authorizations, and passwords necessary to verify each Merchant’s Receivables. Merchant(s) shall authorize WAVE and/or its agent(s) to deduct the amounts owed to WAVE for the Receivables as specified herein from settlement amounts which would otherwise be due to each Merchant and to pay such amounts to WAVE by permitting WAVE to withdraw the Specified Percentage by ACH debiting of the account. The authorization shall be irrevocable absent WAVE’s written consent.
7. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement is indefinite and shall continue until WAVE receives the full Receivables Purchased Amount, or earlier if terminated pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. The provisions of Sections 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 22, 23, 27, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, and 54 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
8. Ordinary Course of Business. Each Merchant acknowledges that it is entering into this Agreement in the ordinary course of its business and that the payments to be made from each Merchant to WAVE under this Agreement are being made in the ordinary course of each Merchant’s business.
9. Financial Condition. Each Merchant and each Guarantor (Guarantor being defined as each signatory to the Guarantee of this Agreement) authorizes WAVE and its agent(s) to investigate each Merchant’s financial responsibility and history, and will provide to WAVE any bank or financial statements, tax returns, and other documents and records, as WAVE deems necessary prior to or at any time after execution of this Agreement. A photocopy of this authorization will be deemed as acceptable for release of financial information. WAVE is authorized to update such information and financial profiles from time to time as it deems appropriate.
10. Monitoring, Recording, and Electronic Communications. WAVE may choose to monitor and/or record telephone calls with any Merchant and its owners, employees, and agents. By signing this Agreement, each Merchant agrees that any call between WAVE and any Merchant or its representatives may be monitored and/or recorded. Each Merchant and each Guarantor grants access for WAVE to enter any Merchant’s premises and to observe any Merchant’s premises without any prior notice to any Merchant at any time after execution of this Agreement.
WAVE may use automated telephone dialing, text messaging systems, and e-mail to provide messages to Merchant(s), Owner(s) (Owner being defined as each person who signs this Agreement on behalf of a Merchant), and Guarantor(s) about Merchant(s)’s account. Telephone messages may be played by a machine automatically when the telephone is answered, whether answered by an Owner, a Guarantor, or someone else. These messages may also be recorded by the recipient’s answering machine or voice mail. Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor gives WAVE permission to call or send a text message to any telephone number given to WAVE in connection with this Agreement and to play pre-recorded messages and/or send text messages with information about this Agreement and/or any Merchant’s account over the phone. Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor also gives WAVE permission to communicate such information to them by e-mail. Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor agree that WAVE will not be liable to any of them for any such calls or electronic communications, even if information is communicated to an unintended recipient. Each Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor acknowledge that when they receive such calls or electronic communications, they may incur a charge from the company that provides them with telecommunications, wireless, and/or Internet services, and that WAVE has no liability for any such charges.

11. Accuracy of Information Furnished by Merchant and Investigation Thereof. To the extent set forth herein, each of the parties is obligated upon his, her, or its execution of the Agreement to all terms of the Agreement. Each Merchant and each Owner signing this Agreement represent that he or she is authorized to sign this Agreement for each Merchant, legally binding said Merchant to its obligations under this Agreement and that the information provided herein and in all of WAVE’s documents, forms, and recorded interview(s) is true, accurate, and complete in all respects. WAVE may produce a monthly statement reflecting the delivery of the Specified Percentage of Receivables from Merchant(s) to WAVE. An investigative report may be made in connection with the Agreement. Each Merchant and each Owner signing this Agreement authorize WAVE, its agents and representatives, and any credit-reporting agency engaged by WAVE, to (i) investigate any references given or any other statements obtained from or about each Merchant or any of its Owners for the purpose of this Agreement, and (ii) pull credit report at any time now or for so long as any Merchant and/or Owners(s) continue to have any obligation to WAVE under this Agreement or for WAVE’s ability to determine any Merchant’s eligibility to enter into any future agreement with WAVE. Any misrepresentation made by any Merchant or Owner in connection with this Agreement may constitute a separate claim for fraud or intentional misrepresentation.
Authorization for soft pulls: Each Merchant and each Owner understands that by signing this Agreement, they are providing ‘written instructions’ to WAVE under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, authorizing WAVE to obtain information from their personal credit profile or other information from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax. Each Merchant and each Guarantor authorizes WAVE to obtain such information solely to conduct a pre-qualification for credit.
Authorization for hard pulls: Each Merchant and each Owner understands that by signing this Agreement, they are providing ‘written instructions’ to WAVE under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, authorizing WAVE to obtain information from their personal credit profile or other information from Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax. Each Merchant and each Guarantor authorizes WAVE to obtain such information in accordance with a merchant cash advance application.
12. Transactional History. Each Merchant authorizes its bank to provide WAVE with its banking and/or credit card processing history.
13. Indemnification. Each Merchant and each Guarantor jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each Merchant’s credit card and check processors (collectively, “Processor”) and Processor’s officers, directors, and shareholders against all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorney and expert fees) incurred by Processor resulting from (a) claims asserted by WAVE for monies owed to WAVE from any Merchant and (b) actions taken by any Processor in reliance upon information or instructions provided by WAVE.
14. No Liability. In no event will WAVE be liable for any claims asserted by any Merchant under any legal theory for lost profits, lost revenues, lost business opportunities, exemplary, punitive, special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, each of which is waived by each Merchant and each Guarantor.
15. Sale of Receivables. Each Merchant and WAVE agree that the Purchase Price under this Agreement is in exchange for the Receivables Purchased Amount and that such Purchase Price is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as a loan from WAVE to any Merchant. WAVE is entering into this Agreement knowing the risks that each Merchant’s business may decline or fail, resulting in WAVE not receiving the Receivables Purchased Amount. Any Merchant going bankrupt or going out of business or experiencing a slowdown in business or a delay in collecting Receivables will not on its own without anything more be considered a breach of this Agreement. Each Merchant agrees that the Purchase Price in exchange for the Receivables pursuant to this Agreement equals the fair market value of such Receivables. WAVE has purchased and shall own all the Receivables described in this Agreement up to the full Receivables Purchased Amount as the Receivables are created. Payments made to WAVE in respect to the full amount of the Receivables shall be conditioned upon each Merchant’s sale of products and services and the payment therefor by each Merchant’s customers in the manner provided in this Agreement. Although certain jurisdictions require the disclosure of an Annual Percentage Rate or APR in connection with this Agreement, those disclosures do not change the fact that the transaction encompassed by this Agreement is not a loan and does not have an interest rate.

34. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that Xxxxxxxx(s) shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of WAVE, which consent may be withheld in WAVE’s sole discretion. WAVE may assign, transfer, or sell its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, its rights to receive the Receivables Purchased Amount, and its rights under Section 31 of this Agreement, the Guarantee, and any other agreement, instrument, or document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (a “Related Agreement”), or delegate its duties hereunder or thereunder, either in whole or in part. From and after the effective date of any such assignment or transfer by WAVE, whether or not any Merchant has actual notice thereof, this Agreement and each Related Agreement shall be deemed amended and modified (without the need for any further action on the part of any Merchant or WAVE) such that the assignee shall be deemed a party to this Agreement and any such Related Agreement and, to the extent provided in the assignment document between WAVE and such assignee (the “Assignment Agreement”), have the rights and obligations of WAVE under this Agreement and such Related Agreements with respect to the portion of the Receivables Purchased Amount set forth in such Assignment Agreement, including but not limited to rights in the Receivables, Collateral and Additional Collateral, the benefit of each Guarantor’s guaranty regarding the full and prompt performance of every obligation that is a subject of the Guarantee, WAVE’s rights under Section 17 of this Agreement (Protections Against Default), and to receive damages from any Merchant following a breach of this Agreement by any Merchant. In connection with such assignment, WAVE may disclose all information that WAVE has relating to any Merchant or its business. Each Merchant agrees to acknowledge any such assignment in writing upon WAVE’s request.

Each Merchant acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement was made in the State of Florida, that the Purchase Price is being paid by WAVE in the State of Florida, that the Receivables Purchased Amount is being delivered to WAVE in the State of Florida, and that the State of Florida has a reasonable relationship to the transactions encompassed by this Agreement. This Agreement, any dispute or claim relating hereto, whether sounding in contract, tort, law, equity, or otherwise, the relationship between WAVE and each Merchant, and the relationship between WAVE and each Guarantor will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to any applicable principles of conflict of laws. Each Merchant represents that it does not have a principal place of business located in the Commonwealth of Virginia and that therefore the provisions of Chapter 22.1 of Title 6.2 of the Virginia Code are not applicable to this Agreement.

Each undersigned Guarantor hereby guarantees each Merchant’s performance of all of the representations, warranties, and covenants made by each Merchant to WAVE in the Agreement, inclusive of all addenda, if any, executed simultaneously herewith, as the Agreement may be renewed, amended, extended, or otherwise modified (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor’s obligations are due at the time of any breach by any Merchant of any representation, warranty, or covenant made by any Merchant in the Agreement.
G2. Communications. WAVE may use automated telephone dialing, text messaging systems, and e-mail to provide messages to Guarantor(s) about Merchant(s)’s account. Telephone messages may be played by a machine automatically when the telephone is answered, whether answered by an Owner, a Guarantor, or someone else. These messages may also be recorded by the recipient’s answering machine or voice mail. Each Guarantor gives WAVE permission to call or send a text message to any telephone number given to WAVE in connection with this Agreement and to play pre-recorded messages and/or send text messages with information about this Agreement and/or any Merchant’s account over the phone. Each Guarantor also gives WAVE permission to communicate such information to them by e-mail. Each Guarantor agrees that WAVE will not be liable to any of them for any such calls or electronic communications, even if information is communicated to an unintended recipient. Each Guarantor acknowledges that when they receive such calls or electronic communications, they may incur a charge from the company that provides them with telecommunications, wireless, and/or Internet services, and that WAVE has no liability for any such charges.
G3. Guarantor Waivers. If WAVE considers any Event of Default to have taken place under the Agreement, then WAVE may enforce its rights under this Guarantee without first seeking to obtain payment from any Merchant, any other guarantor, or any Collateral or Cross-Collateral WAVE may hold pursuant to this Guarantee or any other agreement or guarantee. WAVE does not have to notify any Guarantor of any of the following events and Guarantor(s) will not be released from its obligations under this Guarantee even if it is not notified of: (i) any Merchant’s failure to pay timely any amount owed under the Agreement; (ii) any adverse change in any Merchant’s financial condition or business; (iii) any sale or other disposition of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) WAVE’s acceptance of the Agreement with any Merchant; and (v) any renewal, extension, or other modification of the Agreement or any Merchant’s other obligations to WAVE.

Until the Receivables Purchased Amount and each Merchant’s other obligations to WAVE under the Agreement and this Guarantee are paid in full, each Guarantor shall not seek reimbursement from any Merchant or any other guarantor for any amounts paid by it under the Agreement. Each Guarantor permanently waives and shall not seek to exercise any of the following rights that it may have against any Merchant, any other guarantor, or any collateral provided by any Merchant or any other guarantor, for any amounts paid by it or acts performed by it under this Guarantee: (i) subrogation; (ii) reimbursement; (iii) performance; (iv) indemnification; or (v) contribution.
G4. Joint and Several Liability. The obligations hereunder of the persons or entities constituting each Guarantor under this Guarantee are joint and several.

ADDENDUM TO STANDARD MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE AGREEMENT
FOR ESTIMATED PAYMENTS
This is an Addendum, dated, to the Standard Merchant Cash Advance Agreement (“Agreement”), dated______, between WAVE ADVANCE INC (“WAVE”) and PARTS ID INC., and all entities listed on the “Merchant List” (“Merchant”). This Addendum incorporates the Agreement by reference. The terms of this Addendum will control to the extent they conflict with any of the terms in the Agreement.
Instead of debiting the 25.28% Specified Percentage of Merchant’s Receivables, WAVE may instead debit $35,000.00 (“Estimated Payment”) from the Account every WEEK. The Estimated Payment is intended to be an approximation of no more than the Specified Percentage. The Estimated Payment is subject to any Cap imposed by Section 3 of the Agreement.
Any Merchant may request that WAVE conduct a reconciliation in order to ensure that the amount that WAVE has collected equals the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables under the Agreement. Any Merchant may request such a reconciliation by giving written notice of the request to WAVE. A reconciliation may also be requested by e-mail to xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx. If such reconciliation determines that WAVE collected more than it was entitled to, then WAVE will credit to the Account all amounts to which WAVE was not entitled and decrease the Estimated Payment so that it is consistent with the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables from the date of the Agreement through the date of the reconciliation. If such reconciliation determines that WAVE collected less than it was entitled to, then WAVE will debit from the Account all additional amounts to which WAVE was entitled and increase the Estimated Payment so that it is consistent with the Specified Percentage of Merchant(s)’s Receivables from the date of the Agreement through the date of the reconciliation, with the increase being subject to any Cap in place on collections. In order to effectuate this reconciliation, any Merchant must produce with its request the login and password for the Account and any and all statements covering the period from the date of the Agreement through the date of the request for a reconciliation. WAVE will complete each such reconciliation within two business days after receipt of a written request for one accompanied by the information and documents required for it. Nothing herein limits the amount of times that such a reconciliation may be requested.

CHANGING FREQUENCY OF ESTIMATED PAYMENTS
This is an Addendum, dated, to the Standard Merchant Cash Advance Agreement (“Agreement”), dated______, between WAVE ADVANCE INC (“WAVE”) and PARTS ID INC., and all entities listed on the “Merchant List” (“Merchant”). This Addendum incorporates the Agreement by reference. The terms of this Addendum will control to the extent they conflict with any of the terms in the Agreement.
C1. Changing Frequency of Estimated Payment.
