3. INTEREST
3.1 RATE. With respect to the Advances, Dealer shall pay FINOVA
interest as set forth in the Schedule.
3.2 FLOATING RATE; COMPUTATION. The interest rate chargeable on any
Advance shall be increased or decreased as the case may be, without notice or
demand of any kind, upon the announcement of any change in the Base Rate. Each
change in the Base Rate shall be effective immediately. Interest and all other
fees and charges shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual
days elapsed and shall be payable to FINOVA in arrears on the first business day

3.3 [INTENTIONALLY DELETED]
3.4 EXCESS INTEREST. The contracted for rate of interest contemplated
hereby, without limitation, shall consist of the following: (i) the interest
rate set forth in the Schedule, calculated and applied to the principal balance
of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (ii)
interest after an Event of Default, calculated and applied to the amount of the
Obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof; (iii) any discount
afforded FINOVA with respect Vendor invoices for Financed Inventory; and (iv)
all Additional Sums (as herein defined), if any. Dealer agrees to pay an
effective contracted for rate of interest which is the sum of the
above-referenced elements. The Facility Fee, attorneys fees, the Early
Termination Fee, other charges or any other sums or things of value paid or
payable by Dealer hereunder (collectively, the "ADDITIONAL SUMS"), whether
pursuant to this Agreement or any other documents or instruments in any way
pertaining to this lending transaction, or otherwise with respect to this
lending transaction, that under any applicable law may be deemed to be interest
with respect to this lending transaction, for the purpose of any applicable law
that may limit the maximum amount of interest to be charged with respect to this
lending transaction, shall be payable by Dealer as, and shall be deemed to be,
additional interest and for such purposes only, the agreed upon and "contracted
for rate of interest" of this lending transaction shall be deemed to be
increased by the rate of interest resulting from the inclusion of the Additional
Sums.
It is the intent of the parties to comply with the usury laws of the
State of Arizona (the "APPLICABLE USURY LAW"). Accordingly, it is agreed that
notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, or in any of
the documents securing payment hereof or otherwise relating hereto, in no event
shall this Agreement or such documents require the payment or permit the
collection of interest in excess of the maximum contract rate permitted by the
Applicable Usury Law (the "MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE"). In the event (a) any such
excess of interest otherwise would be contracted for, charged or received from
Dealer or otherwise in connection with the loan evidenced hereby, (b) the
maturity of the Obligations is accelerated in whole or in part, or (c) all or
part of the Obligations shall be prepaid, so that under any of such
circumstances the amount of interest contracted for, shared or received in
connection with the loan evidenced hereby, would exceed the Maximum Interest
Rate, then in any such event (1) the provisions of this paragraph shall govern
and control, (2) neither Dealer nor any other person or entity now or hereafter
liable for the payment of the Obligations shall be obligated to pay the amount
of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the Maximum Interest
Rate, (3) any such excess which may have been collected shall be either applied
as a credit against the then unpaid principal amount of the Obligations or
refunded to Dealer, at FINOVA's option, and (4) the effective rate of interest
shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Interest Rate. It is further
agreed, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, that to the extent
permitted by the Applicable Usury Law; (x) all calculations of interest which
are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate would exceed the
Maximum Interest Rate shall be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and
spreading during the period of the full stated term of the loan evidenced
hereby, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Dealer
or otherwise in connection with such Advance; and (y) in the event that the
effective rate of interest on the loan should at any time exceed the Maximum
Interest Rate, such excess interest that would otherwise have been collected had
there been no ceiling imposed by the Applicable Usury Law shall be paid to
FINOVA from time to time, if and when the effective interest rate on the loan
otherwise falls below the Maximum Interest Rate, to the extent that interest
paid to the date of calculation does not exceed the Maximum Interest Rate, until
the entire amount of interest which would otherwise have been collected had
there been no ceiling imposed by the Applicable Usury Law has been paid in full.
Dealer further
-4-
agrees that should the Maximum Interest Rate be increased at any time
hereafter because of a change in the Applicable Usury Law, then to the extent
not prohibited by the Applicable Usury Law, such increases, if applicable,
shall apply to all indebtedness evidenced hereby regardless of when incurred;
but, again to the extent not prohibited by the Applicable Usury Law, should
the Maximum Interest Rate be decreased because of a change in the Applicable
Usury Law, such decreases shall not apply to the indebtedness evidenced
hereby regardless of when incurred.
4. COLLATERAL
4.1 SECURITY FOR ADVANCES. To secure the prompt and complete payment
and performance of the Advances, Dealer hereby grants to FINOVA a purchase-money
lien on, and security interest in, the Collateral.
4.2 [INTELLIONALLY DELETED]
4.3 COLLATERAL IN POSSESSION OF OTHERS. If any Collateral is at any
time in the possession or control of any warehouseman, bailee or any of Dealer's
agents or processors, Dealer shall notify such Person of FINOVA's security
interest in such Collateral and, upon FINOVA's request, instruct them to hold
all such Collateral for FINOVA's account subject to FINOVA's instructions. From
time to time, Dealer shall, upon FINOVA's request, execute and deliver
confirmatory written instructions pledging the Collateral to FINOVA, but
Dealer's failure to do so shall not affect or limit FINOVA's security interest
or other rights in and to the Collateral. Until the obligations have been fully
satisfied and FINOVA's obligation to make further Advances hereunder has
terminated, FINOVA's security interest in the Collateral shall continue in full
force and in effect.

Obligations, FINOVA may, at its election, reduce the Total Facility to Fifty
Million ($50,000,000) Dollars within thirty (30) days of receipt of the

facility by FINOVA. FINOVA shall waive the Early Termination Fee as provided in
the Schedule pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence, and other

be continuing until such Event of Default is waived in writing by FINOVA as

effect a novation between Dealer and such third party.

other person or entity primarily or secondarily liable for the obligations and
indebtedness guaranteed hereby (herein, an "Obligor"), or against or with
respect to any property, real or personal, now or hereafter granted to or
obtained by you as security for Debtor's Liabilities or for our liabilities and
obligations to you hereunder or for those of any Obligor (herein, "Secured
Property"), together with interest thereon until reimbursed at a rate equal to
three (3) percent above the rate of interest payable on the Debtor's Liabilities
guaranteed hereby (or the highest rate permitted by law) of the amount due by us
to you.
3. LIABILITY ABSOLUTE; WAIVERS.
(a) We shall pay all of the foregoing amounts and perform all of
the foregoing terms, covenants and conditions notwithstanding that any part or
all of the Agreements or other documents or instruments
evidencing the Debtor's Liabilities, or any financial accommodation for or
transaction with the Debtor, shall be invalid, void, voidable or otherwise
unenforceable, in whole or in part, as against the Debtor, any property of the
Debtor, or any of Debtor's creditors, including a trustee in bankruptcy of
Debtor or Debtor as a debtor-in-possession, including without limitation by
reason of any theory or provision of law or equity, statutory or otherwise,
relating to consideration, or the lack thereof, or to any alleged fraudulent,
preferential or other improper transfer or conveyance, and including further,
without limitation, by reason of failure by any person, including yourself, to
file any document or take any other action to make any of your rights against
the Debtor, any other Obligor or any property, pursuant to the Agreements or
otherwise, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms.
(b) You shall have the right from time to time, and at any time,
without notice to or consent from us, and without affecting, impairing or
discharging, in whole or in part, our obligations to you hereunder, to enter
into agreements with the Debtor or any other Obligor to modify, change or
supplement, in any respect whatsoever, any evidence of indebtedness, or any
agreement or transaction between you and the Debtor or between you and any other
Obligor, or any portion or provision of any thereof; to grant extensions of time
and other indulgences of any kind to the Debtor or other Obligor; to
compromise, release, substitute, exercise, enforce, or fail or refuse to
exercise or enforce any claims, rights or remedies of any kind which you may
have, at any time, against the Debtor or any other Obligor, or any portion
thereof, or with respect to any Secured Property; and to release, substitute or
surrender and to enforce, collect or liquidate any security of any kind held by
you at any time, and all of the foregoing whether done negligently, willfully or
otherwise.
(c) Our obligations to you shall not be affected, impaired or
discharged, in whole or in part, by reason of your failure to obtain, in the
first instance, rights against any person or entity, including without
limitation, the Debtor, or in or with respect to any property, or to protect,
perfect, continue or maintain any such rights.
(d) We waive notice of acceptance hereof and all notices and
demands of any kind to which we may otherwise be entitled including, without
limitation, all demands of payment and notice of nonpayment, protest and
dishonor, to us or to the Debtor, or to the makers or endorsers of any notes or
other instruments for which we are or may be liable hereunder, and further waive
notice of any adverse change in the Debtor's financial condition, the value of
any Secured Property, or any other fact which might materially increase our risk
to you hereunder.
(e) We waive any right to require you to, prior to proceeding
against us hereunder: (i) proceed against Debtor and/or any other Obligor; (ii)
proceed against or exhaust any Secured Property; or (iii) pursue any other
remedy which you may have.
4. PRIMARY NATURE OF OBLIGATIONS; NO SET-OFF.
Our liability to you hereunder is primary, absolute,
unconditional, continuing, direct and independent of the obligations of the
Debtor. Nothing shall discharge or satisfy our liability hereunder except the
full performance and payment of all of the Debtor's Liabilities. In the event
that all of Debtor's Liabilities shall have at any time been paid and performed
in full, this Guaranty and our obligations hereunder shall nevertheless remain
in full force and effect and be operative with respect to Debtor's Liabilities
incurred or arising at any time to times thereafter. We shall have no right of
subrogation, reimbursement or indemnity whatsoever and no right of recourse to
or with respect to the Debtor and/or any property of the Debtor, unless and
until all of Debtor's Liabilities have been paid and performed in full. Our
liability to you hereunder shall not be subject to set-off, counterclaim,
crossclaim or defense arising out of or by virtue of any claim or right which we
may at any time have against the Debtor or other Obligor, or which we may at any
time have against you in connection with this or any other transaction with or
acquired by you.
5. CONTINUING NATURE OF GUARANTY.
(2)
Our obligations under the Guaranty shall be continuing. This
instrument shall continue in full force and effect until our obligations to you
are terminated by the actual receipt by you of written notice from us of such
termination. Such termination shall be applicable only to such of Debtor's
Liabilities as have their inception thereafter. Specifically, without
limitation, we shall, after and notwithstanding such termination, remain
obligated to you under the term hereof for: (i) all of Debtor's Liabilities
incurred prior to your actual receipt of such notice of termination, including
interest or other finance charges at any time theretofore accrued or thereafter
accruing or payable thereon; (ii) all of your costs and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, at any time incurred in connection with your enforcement and
collection of Debtor's Liabilities incurred prior to your actual receipt of such
notice of termination; (iii) Debtor's Liabilities incurred subsequent to your
actual receipt of such notice of termination pursuant to any perceived or actual
commitment made on your part prior to such notice of termination, arising out of
any course of dealing or other perceived or actual legal or other requirement
obligating or committing you to make advances, loans or other financial
accommodations giving rise to such Debtor's Liabilities; and (iv) advances at
any time made by you to protect your interests under or in connection with
Debtor's Liabilities incurred prior to you actual receipt of such notice of
termination. We acknowledge that, upon such termination, you will have
absolutely no further obligation to consider any further requests for loans or
other extensions of credit or financial accommodations for the Debtor.
6. SECURITY FOR GUARANTY.
All sums at any time to our credit and any of our present and
future property at any time in your possession shall be deemed held by you as
security for any and all of our obligations to you hereunder.
7. SUBORDINATION.
Any and all present and future indebtedness and obligations of
the Debtor to us are hereby agreed to be postponed in your favor. Upon written
notice given by you to us, which you may give at any time whether or not the
Debtor is in default to you, we will refrain from accepting any payments on
account of such indebtedness tendered by the Debtor or any other Obligor
thereon, or realized from any security therefor, and any amounts received by us
in violation of the foregoing shall be held by us upon an express trust for your
benefit and turned over to you upon demand. Until such notice, we will accept
only such payments which are in the nature of regularly scheduled payments made
pursuant to periodic reductions required by the terms of the documents
evidencing such indebtedness, and shall not accept any prepayment thereof,
whether on default, on demand under any demand instrument, or otherwise. We
represent to you that all such indebtedness owing to us is, and agree that it
shall remain, and any future indebtedness shall be unsecured.
8. NO WAIVER.
No failure, omission or delay on your part in exercising any
rights hereunder or under the Agreements or with respect to Debtor's
Liabilities, either against the Debtor or any other Obligor, or any Secured
Property, shall operate as a waiver of such rights or shall, in any manner,
prejudice your rights against us hereunder or otherwise.
9. CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.
All of your rights and remedies under the Agreements, this
Guaranty and under any other document or instrument evidencing or securing
Debtor's Liabilities are separate and cumulative and may be pursued separately,
successively or concurrently, are non-exclusive and the exercise of any one or
more of them shall in no way limit or prejudice any other legal or equitable
right, remedy or recourse to which you may be entitled. This Guaranty shall be
deemed to be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any prior suretyship or
guaranty delivered by us to you, and any suretyship or guaranty at any time
hereafter delivered by us to you shall be deemed to be in addition to, and not
in lieu of, this Guaranty.
10. APPLICATION OF FUNDS.
(3)
Any payment made by us hereunder, or by the Debtor or any other
Obligor, and any proceeds realized by you from any Secured Property, may be
applied by you to any of Debtor's Liabilities in any order which you may
determine, notwithstanding any designation by us, the Debtor or other Obligor to
the contrary. To the extent that the Debtor has at any time any liabilities or
obligations to you for which we are not obligated to you under the terms of this
Guaranty, any payments received by you from Debtor or any other Obligor, or
proceeds realized by you from any security, and regardless of any designation by
any person or entity to the contrary, may be applied by you to such other
liabilities and obligations prior to your applying any amounts to Debtor's
Liabilities for which we are obligated to you hereunder.
11. MODIFICATIONS.
No provision thereof shall be modified or limited, except by a
written agreement expressly referring hereto and to the provision so modified or
limited, and signed by us and you.
12. MERGER.
This writing is intended as a final, complete and exclusive
expression of our agreement with you relative to the subject matter hereof. No
course of prior dealing between you and us, no usage of the trade, and no parole
or extrinsic evidence of any nature, shall be used or be relevant to supplement
or explain or modify and term used in this Guaranty.
13. SEVERABILITY.
In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Guaranty shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provisions hereof, and this Guaranty shall be construed as if such
invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
14. NOTICES.
We agree that any notice or demand upon us shall be deemed to be
sufficiently given or served if it is in writing and is personally served, or in
lieu of personal service is mailed by first class certified mail, postage
prepaid, addressed to us at the address set forth below. Any notice or demand
so mailed shall be deemed received on the date of actual receipt or the first
business day following mailing, whichever first occurs.
15. JUDGMENT INTEREST.
Any judgment entered against us hereunder shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, bear interest at the highest rate applicable to the
Debtor's Liabilities guaranteed hereby.
16. GOVERNING LAW.
THIS INSTRUMENT SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE CONFLICT OF LAW
RULES) OF THE STATE OF ARIZONA. WE HEREBY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION
OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE COUNTY OF MARICOPA, THE STATE
OF ARIZONA OR, AT YOUR SOLE OPTION, IN ANY OTHER COURT IN WHICH YOU SHALL
INITIATE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PROCEEDINGS AND WHICH HAS SUBJECT MATTER
JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER IN CONTROVERSY. WE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY
OBJECTION OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND VENUE.
17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.
(4)
AS AN INDEPENDENT COVENANT, WE IRREVOCABLY WAIVE JURY TRIAL AND
THE RIGHT THERETO IN ANY AND ALL ACTIONS BETWEEN US, WHETHER UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE.
18. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.
This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of your successors and
assigns and shall be binding on our successors and assigns.
19. GENDER; JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY.
If there be more than one person or entity signing this Guaranty,
each of us will be jointly and severally obligated to you hereunder, and the
terms "we", "us" or "our" as used herein shall refer to each of us jointly and
severally. If less than all persons or entities who were intended to sign this
Guaranty do so, the same shall nevertheless be binding upon those who do sign.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, intending to be legally bound hereby, the
undersigned has duly executed this Guaranty as of this 3rd day of November,
1999.
