ADDENDUM
In addition to the provisions of the Accounts Receivable Factoring and
Security Agreement (together with all documents related thereto as modified,
amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Agreement") executed by and
between Allstate Financial Corporation ("AFC") and Airship International Ltd.
("Client") on or about November 16, 1994, the parties do hereby acknowledge and
agree with each other as follows:
1. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, AFC has
committed to Client the availability of up to $1,750,000.00 net funds
outstanding to Client at any one time. In consideration of this commitment
Client has agreed to pay AFC a fee of .125% per month (or any fraction thereof)
payable monthly in arrears no later than the fifth calendar day of each month
with respect to the immediately preceding calendar month calculated on the
higher of the highest net funds outstanding on any day during such preceding
month and $1,750,000.00. The term "net funds outstanding to Client" and/or "net
funds outstanding" as used herein shall include the sum total at any given time
of (i) advances made by AFC to Client (whether or not made under the Agreement
or any Collateral Funding Repayment Agreement), (ii) discount and other fees and
charges then accrued (but not yet collected) pursuant to the terms of the
Agreement, (iii) all contingent obligations of Client under or in respect of any
Letter of Guaranty or Letter of Credit issued by (or arranged for by) AFC for
Client, and (iv) any other amounts due to AFC (whether under the Agreement or
otherwise) which have not then been paid or repaid to AFC. AFC may deduct any
commitment fee or fees provided for herein from Client's subsequent funding or
fundings or as otherwise provided in the Agreement. Client acknowledges and
agrees that the available amount (and therefore the permitted "net funds
outstanding") shall
decrease automatically by $75,000.00 on the first day of each month beginning on
December 1, 1994 and Client shall pay to AFC all amounts required so that the
net funds outstanding in each month do not exceed the available amount for such
month.
2. Client understands and agrees that notwithstanding any other
provisions hereof or of the Agreement or any other agreement or document entered
into between AFC and Client, it is intended that AFC receive no less than
$75,000.00 each month in collections from Debtors or from Client directly. Such
collections shall be applied by AFC first to accrued and unpaid fees and
expenses of AFC payable to AFC and to accrued and unpaid earnings with respect
to any and all Accounts purchased and any outstanding prefunds in any order in
the sole discretion of AFC and next to outstanding advances made in connection
with the purchase of Accounts or the making of any prefunding. In the event AFC
does not receive collections totalling $75,000.00 in any month either from
Debtors or from Client, then and in such event (and without limiting or
modifying any terms or provisions hereof or of the Agreement), a default shall
be deemed to have occurred under the Agreement.
3. Client further understands and agrees that notwithstanding the
provision for an availability of up to $1,750,000.00 under paragraph 1 above,
any amounts advanced by AFC in excess of $1,500,000.00 shall be held in a form
acceptable to AFC in its sole discretion and shall be put under the control of
AFC in a manner acceptable to AFC in its sole discretion.
4. Client and certain guarantors of the obligations of Client have
executed and delivered to AFC in connection herewith certain Confessed Judgment
Demand Notes each in an amount equal to the amount of the commitment referenced
above ($1,750,000.00) plus ten percent (100%). In the event the net funds
outstanding ever exceeds $1,750,000.00, then and
in such event, Client and such guarantors shall enter into new Confessed
Judgment Demand Notes as requested by AFC in its sole discretion each in an
amount equal to the increased amount plus ten percent (10%). Client acknowledges
and confirms that any failure or delay by Client or any guarantor to execute a
new Confessed Judgment Demand Note on request by AFC shall be a default under
the terms of the agreement.
4. Client has paid to AFC a nonrefundable closing fee of $10,000.00 (the
"Closing Fee"). Client shall in addition to the Closing Fee, pay to (or
reimburse) AFC for any additional costs incurred by AFC during the initial audit
of Client, to include but not be limited to the cost of travel, hotel and meals
for one auditor and any additional costs related to the perfection of AFC's
interests in the Collateral or any other property in which AFC is granted an
interest in connection with any transactions between the Client and AFC,
including without limitation, the filing of UCC financing statements beyond the
initial filings against Client's corporate name and headquarters address, the
searching of records related to any name other than Client's corporate name
and/or locations beyond Client's corporate headquarters and/or all costs
and disbursements (including all attorney fees and disbursements) related to
the perfection of AFC's security interest in the Aircraft Collateral (as defined
in the Aircraft Security Agreement of even date herewith) (collectively,
"Additional Expenses"). Any unpaid Additional Expenses shall be paid out of the
initial funding of Client. If a determination is made that no funding shall take
place, then Client shall be immediately responsible for payment of all
Additional Expenses and shall make immediate payment to AFC therefor.
5. The Client may repurchase all Accounts and repay in full all
obligations outstanding hereunder at any time. In the event Client wishes to
repurchase all Accounts and
repay all amounts outstanding hereunder, Client shall notify AFC in writing of
its intent to do so not less than 15 days prior to the date on which such
repurchase and repayment is to be made (the "Repayment Date") On the Repayment
Date, Client shall pay to AFC in full all outstanding advances under the
Agreement and any Collateral Funding Repayment Agreement entered into in
connection therewith or otherwise, all accrued and unpaid discount and all other
fees and expenses (including without limitation supplemental discount for each
of the remaining unused months of the Sale Period) payable to AFC under the
Agreement and any Collateral Funding Repayment Agreement entered into in
connection therewith or otherwise. Upon receipt of (i) all such amounts and (ii)
Mutual Releases in form and substance satisfactory to AFC in its sole discretion
executed by Client, AFC agrees that this Agreement shall be terminated as
described in Section 17(a) Agreement.
6. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of the Agreement or
any other agreement or document entered into in connection herewith or
therewith, unless and until a default shall have occurred and be continuing
under the Agreement, AFC shall not notify or otherwise attempt to directly
collect payments from any Debtors of Client.
7. Except as modified hereby all other terms and conditions of the
Agreement remain the same and in full force and effect.
