Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them in Section 13, Definitions.
1. Purchase of Accounts.
1.1. Schedule of Accounts. Seller may, at any time, request that Purchaser purchase Accounts. Any such request by Seller shall be made by delivering to Purchaser a Schedule of Accounts (the "Schedule of Accounts") which describes in detail the Accounts Seller is requesting Purchaser to purchase, including, (a) the name and address of the Account Debtor of each such Account, (b) the amount owed by the Account Debtor of each such Account, and (c) the date and number of the invoice evidencing each such Account. Each Schedule of Accounts shall have attached to it an invoice for each Account described on the Schedule of Accounts, and shall be signed by an authorized representative of Seller.
1.2. Discretionary Approval of Accounts. Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, purchase any Account included in a Schedule of Accounts, but is under no obligation to purchase any such Account. Purchaser may exercise its sole discretion in approving each Account and the credit of each Account Debtor before purchasing any Account.
1.3. Payment of Advance; Creation of a Book Reserve. Upon approval, in Purchaser's sole discretion, of any of the Accounts described on a Schedule of Accounts, Purchaser shall pay to Seller as the purchase price for any approved Account EIGHTY percent (80%) of the face amount of such approved Account (the "Advance"). Purchaser may, from time to time, in its discretion, upon notice to Seller, change the percentage of the Advance. Upon payment of the Advance to Seller, Purchaser shall also create a reserve on Purchaser's books and records with respect to each Purchased Account in an amount equal to the face amount of the Purchased Account minus the Advance for such Purchased Account (the "Reserve"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Reserve with respect to all Purchased Accounts outstanding at any time be less than TWENTY percent (20%) of the Account Balance. Purchaser may, in its discretion, upon notice to Seller, increase the percentage of the Reserve at any time.
1.4. Transfer of Accounts. At the time Purchaser pays the Advance with respect to any Account, such Account shall constitute a Purchased Account, and Seller hereby absolutely sells, transfers and assigns to Purchaser, all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to each Purchased Account. Seller also hereby sells, transfers and assigns to Purchaser all of the goods represented by each Purchased Account, all of Seller's rights and remedies as an unpaid seller under the California Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law, including the rights of stoppage in transit, replevin, reclamation, and claim and delivery, and all of Seller's rights in and to all security for each such Purchased Account and guaranties thereof, and all rights against third parties with respect thereto. Any goods recovered or received by Seller shall be set aside, marked with Purchaser's name, and held for Purchaser's account as owner.
1.5. Collection of Accounts. Each Purchased Account shall be collected directly by Purchaser. At the request of Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser shall jointly notify each Account Debtor by letter that Purchased Accounts owed by such Account Debtor have been assigned and are payable to Purchaser. Such notification shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Purchaser. Seller shall not take or permit any action to change or revoke any notification without Purchaser's prior written consent and shall not request any Account Debtor to pay any Purchased Account to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Seller receives any payments of any Purchased Accounts, Seller shall (A) immediately notify Purchaser of such payment, (B) hold such payment in trust and safekeeping for Purchaser, and (C) immediately turn over to Purchaser the identical checks, monies or other forms of payment received, with any necessary endorsement or assignment. Purchaser shall have the right to endorse Seller's name on all payments received in connection with each Purchased Account and on any other proceeds of Collateral. If Purchaser receives a check or item which is payment for both a Purchased Account and a non-Purchased Account, the funds shall first be applied to the Purchased Account and, so long as there does not then exist an Event of Default or an event that with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, the excess shall be remitted to Seller. In the event Purchaser receives any other payments of non-Purchased Accounts, Purchaser shall remit to Seller the collections of such non-Purchased Accounts; provided, that if any Event of Default or event that with notice or lapse of time or otherwise would constitute an Event of Default then exists, Purchaser shall have no duty to remit any such collections, which collections constitute Collateral, and may apply such collections to reduce the Obligations.
1.6. Full Recourse. The purchase by Purchaser of Purchased Accounts from Seller shall be with full recourse against Seller. Seller shall be liable for any deficiency in the event the Obligations exceed the amount of Purchased Accounts and the other Collateral.
2. Fees and Customer Payments.
2.1. Finance Fees. Seller shall pay to Purchaser on each Settlement Date, a finance fee in an amount equal to ONE percent (1%) per month of the average daily Account Balance outstanding during the Settlement Period ending on such Settlement Date (the "Finance Fees"). Such accrued Finance Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.
2.2. Administrative Fee. Seller shall pay to Purchaser on each Settlement Date, an Administrative Fee equal to ONE HALF percent (.5%) of the face amount of each Account purchased by Purchaser during the Settlement Period ending on such Settlement Date (the "Administrative Fee"). All Administrative Fees shall be netted against the Reserve as described in Section 3.3.
2.3. Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall any charges that may constitute interest hereunder exceed the highest rate permitted under applicable law. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction makes a final determination that Purchaser has received interest hereunder in excess of the maximum lawful rate, then such excess shall be deemed a payment of principal and the interest payable hereunder deemed amended to the amount payable under the maximum lawful rate.
2.4. Crediting Customer Payments. Upon Purchaser's receipt of payment of a Purchased Account, Purchaser shall promptly credit such customer payment (the "Customer Payments") to the amount outstanding with respect to such Purchased Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Customer Payment is subsequently dishonored or Purchaser does not receive good funds for any reason, the amount of such uncollected Customer Payment shall be included in the Account Balance as if such Customer Payment had not been received, and Finance Fees shall accrue thereon, and the credit to the specific Purchased Account shall be reversed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Purchaser shall apply all Customer Payments to Seller's Obligations under this Agreement in such order and manner as Purchaser shall, in its sole discretion, determine.
2.5. Accounting. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller after each Settlement Date, a statement of Seller's account which shall include an accounting of the transactions for that Settlement Period, including the amount of all Finance Fees, Administrative Fees, Adjustments, Chargeback Amounts, Customer Payments and Purchased Accounts. The accounting shall constitute an account stated and shall be binding on Seller and deemed correct unless Seller delivers to Purchaser a written objection within thirty (30) days after such accounting is mailed to Seller.
3. Adjustments, Chargebacks and Remittances.
3.1. Adjustments. In the event any Account Debtor asserts any offset, defense, counterclaim, dispute, discount, allowance, right of return, right of recoupment, or warranty claim with respect to a Purchased Account, or pays less than the face amount of such Purchased Account (each, an "Adjustment"), Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, either (A) deduct the amount of the Adjustment in calculating the Remittance, or (B) chargeback to Seller the Purchased Account with respect to which the Adjustment is asserted. Seller shall advise Purchaser immediately upon learning of any Adjustment asserted by any Account Debtor.
3.2. Chargebacks. Purchaser shall have the right to chargeback to Seller any Purchased Account:
(A) |

Purchaser shall advise Seller regarding how the Chargeback Amount shall be paid, which may be by any one or a combination of the following. In Purchaser's sole discretion: (1) payment in cash immediately upon demand; (2) deduction from or offset against any Remittance that would otherwise be payable to Seller; (3) payment from any Advances that may otherwise be made to Seller; (4) adjustment to the Reserve pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof; or (5) delivery of substitute Accounts and a Schedule of Accounts acceptable to Purchaser, which Accounts shall constitute Purchased Accounts.
3.3. Remittance. Purchaser shall remit to Seller after the Settlement Date, the amount, if any, which Purchaser owes to Seller at the end of the Settlement Period based on the following calculations set forth below (the "Remittance"); provided, that if there then exists any Event of Default or any event or condition that with notice or lapse of time would constitute an Event of Default, Purchaser shall not be obligated to remit any payments to Seller.
