Exhibit 10.63FT
F. XXXXX XXXXXXXXXX BUSINESS LOAN AGREEMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Agreement dated as of May 21, 1999 is between F. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, a
married man, (the "Lender") and Futech Interactive Products, Inc. (the
"BORROWER").
1. AMOUNT AND TERMS.
1.1 LINE OF CREDIT AMOUNT. During the availability period described below, the
Lender will provide a line of credit to the Borrower. The amount of the line of
credit (the "COMMITMENT") is Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00).
This is a revolving line of credit. During the availability period, the Borrower
may repay principal amounts and reborrow them.
The Borrower agrees not to permit the outstanding principal balance of the line
of credit to exceed the Commitment.
1.2 AVAILABILITY. The line of credit is available between the date of this
Agreement and December 1, 1999 (the "EXPIRATION DATE") unless the Borrower is in
default.
1.3 INTEREST RATE.
The interest rate is the Reference Rate plus 1.00 percentage point(s).
The Reference Rate is the rate of interest publicly announced from time to time
by the Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("BANK") in San
Francisco, California, as its Reference Rate. The Reference Rate is set by the
Bank based on various factors, including the Bank's costs and desired return,
general economic conditions and other factors, and is used as a reference point
for pricing some loans. The Bank may price loans to its customers at, above or
below the Reference Rate. Any change in the Reference Rate will take effect at
the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of a
change in the Bank's Reference Rate.
1.4 REPAYMENT.
(a) The Borrower will pay interest on July 1, 1999 and on the first day of each
month thereafter until payment in full of any principal outstanding under this
line of credit; and (b) The Borrower will repay in full all principal and any
unpaid interest or other charges outstanding under this line of credit no later
than the Expiration Date.
1.5 LETTERS OF CREDIT. This line of credit may not be used for financing standby
letters or commercial letters of credit.
1.6 SECURED LINE OF CREDIT. This line of credit is intended to be a secured and
perfected line of credit, subordinate only to the $7,000,000 loan to Borrower
from Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association. The security for
this line of credit will be comprised of a security interest in all of
Borrower's assets. Borrower agrees to take all actions necessary to document and
perfect this subordinate security interest of Lender.
2. FEES AND EXPENSES.
2.1 LOAN FEE. The Borrower does not have to pay a fee upon execution of this
Agreement.
2.2 REIMBURSEMENT COST. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lender for any
expenses it incurs in the preparation of this Agreement and any agreement or
instrument required by this Agreement. Expenses include, but are not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees.
3. DISBURSEMENTS, PAYMENTS AND COSTS
3.1 TELEPHONE AND TELEFAX AUTHORIZATION. (a) The Lender may honor telephone or
telefax instructions for advances or repayments given by any one of the
individual signer(s) of this Agreement or a person or persons authorized in
writing by any one of the signer(s) of this Agreement; (b) Advances will be
deposited in and repayments will be withdrawn from the Borrowers account number
with Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, or other accounts
as designated in writing by the Borrower; and (c) The Borrower indemnifies and
excuses the Lender (including its officers, employees, and agents) from all
liability, loss, and costs in connection with any act resulting
2
from telephone instructions it reasonably believes are made by any individual
authorized by the Borrower to give such instructions. This indemnity and excuse
will survive this Agreement's termination.
3.2. INTEREST CALCULATION. All interest and fees, if any, will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. This results
in more interest or a higher fee than if a 365-day year is used.
3.3. INTEREST ON LATE PAYMENTS. At the Lender's sole option in each instance,
any amount not paid when due under this Agreement (including interest) will bear
interest from the due date at the Reference Rate plus 5.00 percentage points.
This may result in compounding of interest.
3.4 DEFAULT RATE. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any
default under this Agreement, advances under this Agreement will at the option
of the Lender bear interest at a rate per annum which is 5.00 percentage points
higher than the rate of interest otherwise provided under this Agreement. This
will not constitute a waiver of any default.
4. CONDITIONS The Lender must receive the following items, in form and
content acceptable to the Lender, before it is required to extend any credit to
the Borrower under this Agreement.
4.1 AUTHORIZATIONS. Evidence that the execution, delivery and performance by
the Borrower (and any guarantors) of this Agreement and any instrument or
agreement required under this Agreement have been duly authorized.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES When the Borrower signs this Agreement, and
until the Lender is repaid in full, the Borrower makes the following
representations and warranties. Each request for an extension of credit
constitutes a renewed representation: (a) The Borrower is a corporation duly
formed and existing under the laws of the state where organized; (b) This
Agreement, and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, are within the
Borrower's powers, have been duly authorized, and do not conflict with any of
its organizational papers; (c) This Agreement, and each other agreement or
document executed and delivered to the Lender in connection with this Agreement,
is a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, enforceable against the
Borrower in accordance with its terms, and any instrument or agreement required
hereunder, when executed and delivered, will be similarly legal, valid, binding
and enforceable; (d) In each state in which the Borrower does business, it is
properly licensed, in good standing, and where required, in compliance with
fictitious name statutes; (e) This Agreement does not conflict with any law,
agreement, or obligation by which the Borrower is bound; (f) All financial and
other information that has been or will be supplied to the Lender is: (i)

(and any guarantor's) financial condition; (ii) in form and content required by
the Lender; (iii) in compliance with all government regulations that apply; (g)

ability to repay the loan, except as have been disclosed in writing to the
Lender prior to the date of this Agreement; (h) The Borrower possesses all
permits, memberships, franchises, contracts and licenses required and all
trademark rights, trade name rights, patent rights and fictitious name rights
necessary to enable it to conduct the business in which it is now engaged; (i)

default under this Agreement; (j) The Borrower's place of business (or, if the

located at the address listed under the Borrower's signature on this Agreement;
and (k) On the basis of a comprehensive review and assessment of Borrowers
systems and equipment and inquiry made of Borrower's material suppliers, vendors
and customers Borrower management is of the view that the "YEAR 2000 PROBLEM"
(that is, the inability of computers, as well as embedded microchips in
non-computing devices, to perform properly date-sensitive functions with respect
to certain dates prior to and after December 31, 1999), including costs of
remediation, will not result in a material adverse change in the operations,
business properties, condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower. Borrower
has developed feasible contingency plans to adequately ensure uninterrupted and
unimpaired business operation in the event of failure of its own or a third
party's systems or equipment due to the Year 2000 problem, including those of
vendors, customers, and suppliers, as well as a general failure of or
interruption in its communications and delivery infrastructure.

8. ENFORCING THIS AGREEMENT; MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 GAAP. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, all financial
information provided to the Lender and all financial covenants will be made
under generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.
8.2 ARIZONA LAW. This Agreement is governed by Arizona law.
8.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement is binding on the Borrower's and
the Lender's successors and assignees. The Borrower agrees that it may not
assign this Agreement without the Lender's prior consent.
8.4 ARBITRATION. (a) Unless expressly prohibited by law, any controversy or
claim between or among the parties, including but not limited to those arising
out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating
hereto or delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising
from an alleged tort, will at the request of any party be determined by
arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the United
States Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law
provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitrator(s) will give effect to statutes
of limitation in determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an
issue is arbitrator(s) will be determined by the arbitrator(s). Judgment upon
the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
institution and maintenance of an action for judicial relief or pursuit of a
provisional or ancillary remedy will not constitute a waiver of the right of any
party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to
arbitration if any other party contests such action for judicial relief; and
(b) No provision of this paragraph will limit the right of any party to this
Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to foreclose against
or sell any real or personal property collateral or security, or to obtain
provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before,
after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The
exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of either party to resort to
arbitration. At the Lender's option, sale of assets under the Uniform
Commercial Code may be accomplished without arbitration as permitted under the
relevant statutes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
no claim or controversy between Borrower and Lender will be subject to
arbitration if any party to the action is not subject to arbitration or if the
maintaining the arbitration action would or could lead to inconsistent results
under similar situations (such as, for example, the case of default by
Borrower).
8.5 SEVERABILITY; WAIVERS. If any part of this Agreement is not enforceable,
the rest of the Agreement may be enforced. The Lender retains all rights, even
if it makes a loan after default. If the Lender waives a default, it may
enforce a later default. Any consent or waiver under this Agreement must be in
writing.
8.6 ADMINISTRATION COSTS. The Borrower will pay the Lender for all reasonable
costs incurred by the Lender in connection with administering this Agreement.
8.7 ATTORNEYS' FEES. The Borrower will reimburse the Lender for any reasonable
costs and attorneys' fees incurred by the Lender in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement and
any other documents executed in connection with this Agreement, and including
any amendment, waiver, "workout" or restructuring under this Agreement. In the
event of a lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, the prevailing party is entitled
to recover costs and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the
lawsuit or arbitration proceeding, as determined by the court or arbitrator. As
used in this paragraph, "attorneys' fees" includes the allocated costs of
in-house counsel.
8.8 ONE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and any related security or other agreements
required by this Agreement, collectively: (a) represent the sum of the
understandings and agreements between the Lender and the Borrower concerning
this credit; (b) replace any prior oral or written agreements between the
Lender and the Borrower concerning this credit; and (c) are intended by the
Lender and the Borrower as the final, complete and exclusive statement of the
terms agreed to by them. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement
and any other agreements required by this Agreement, this Agreement will
prevail.
8.9 USURY LAWS. This paragraph covers the transactions described in this
Agreement and any other agreements with the Lender or its affiliates executed
in connection with this Agreement, to the extent they are subject to the
Arizona usury laws (the "Transactions"). The Borrower understands and believes
that the Transactions comply with the Arizona usury laws. However, if any
interest or other charges paid or payable in connection with the Transactions
are ever determined to exceed the maximum amount permitted by law, the Borrower
agrees that:
(a) the amount of interest or other charges payable by the Borrower pursuant
to the Transactions will be reduced to the maximum amount permitted by
law; and
5
6
(b) any excess amount previously collected from the Borrower in connection with
the Transactions which exceeded the maximum amount permitted by law will be
credited against the then outstanding principal balance. If the outstanding
principal balance has been repaid in full, the excess amount paid will be
refunded to the Borrower.
All fees, charges, goods, things in action or any other sums or things of value,
other than interest at the interest rate described in this Agreement, paid or
payable by the Borrower (collectively the "Additional Sums"), that may be deemed
to be interest with respect to the Transactions, will, for the purpose of any
laws of the State of Arizona that may limit the maximum amount of interest to be
charged with respect to the Transactions, be payable by Borrower as, and will be
deemed to be, additional interest. For such purposes only, the agreed upon and
"contracted for rate of interest" of the Transactions will be deemed to be
increased by the rate of interest resulting from the Additional Sums.
This Agreement is executed as of the date stated at the top of the first page.

FIRST AMENDMENT
TO
SUBORDINATION, PRIORITY AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT is made as of May 21, 1999 ("Amendment Date"), by and
between Futech Interactive Products, Inc., an Arizona corporation ("Futech"),
Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx ("Xxxxx") and F. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx ("Xxxxxxxxxx").
RECITALS:
A. Futech, Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxx entered into that certain Subordination,
Priority and Security Agreement, dated December 3, 1998 (the "Agreement").
Capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the same meanings given
those terms in the Agreement.
X. Xxxxxxxxxx has loaned (the "Loan") to Futech the sum of
$2,000,000.00, as evidenced by that certain Promissory Note of even date
herewith (the "Note") and Business Loan Agreement of even date herewith ("Loan
Agreement").
C. In consideration for the Loan, Futech has agreed to issue additional
warrants to Xxxxxxxxxx.
X. Xxxxxxxx facilitated the additional loan, and Futech has agreed to
issue additional warrants to Rosepink in consideration for his services.
E. The parties desire to amend the Agreement on the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions
contained herein, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally
bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:
TERMS:
Section 2 of the Agreement is deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the following:
1. Priority. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, or
any other document to which the parties hereto are bound, the parties agree
that the following priority shall apply to the security interest described
below encumbering Futech's assets, as of the date of this Agreement and at all
times thereafter;
(a) The first priority shall be the lien of Bank of America National
Trust and Savings Association.
(b) The second priority shall be the lien of Xxxxxxxxxx evidenced by
the Note.
9
(c) The third priority shall be the liens of Guarantors described in
the Agreement.
Proceeds to the Guarantors shall be paid to and shared between the
Guarantors in proportion to the amounts paid by the Guarantors on the
guaranteed debt. For example, if Xxxxx pays $200,000.00 on the Guaranty and
Xxxxxxxxxx pays $100,000.00 on the Guaranty, then amounts collected by
Guarantors in reimbursement of obligations paid under the Guaranty shall be
for the benefit of Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxx 2/3 and 1/3, respectively, until
the full $300,000.00 is repaid to Guarantors.
(d) The fourth priority shall be for other security interests of
Xxxxx against Futech's assets existing as of the date of this Agreement.
Each party to this Agreement hereby unconditionally subordinates said
party's lien to the other liens identified above as being prior to said
lien, to the extent necessary to accomplish the priority of liens as
described above. This being the case, Futech and Xxxxx agree to take all
actions necessary to perfect the security interest of Xxxxxxxxxx in all
jurisdictions where the assets may be used or located or where perfection
is necessary, subordinate only to the security interest of Bank of America
National Trust and Savings Association.
2. Effective immediately and automatically upon funding by Xxxxxxxxxx of
the Loan, Futech shall be obligated to issue to Xxxxxxxxxx, as soon as is
practicable, warrants in substantially the same form as Exhibit "A" attached to
the Agreement, for Xxxxxxxxxx to acquire 9,000,000 shares of non-assessable
common stock of Futech at a price of $.05 per share. The common stock acquired
by Xxxxxxxxxx under this provision shall contain all of the rights and
restrictions applicable to the common stock of Futech. Futech makes and has made
no representation or warranty as to the value of Futech's stock, such value
being Xxxxxxxxxx'x risk.
3. By December 1, 1999, Xxxxx agrees to obtain a release of Xxxxxxxxxx of
all of Xxxxxxxxxx'x obligations under the Guaranty. Xxxxxxxxxx must, at or
prior to the obtaining of such release, exercise all of Xxxxxxxxxx'x warrants to
acquire Futech stock issued pursuant to the Agreement (21,000,000 shares) and
this Amendment (9,000,000 shares) (30,000,000 shares in total). At the time such
release is obtained, Xxxxxxxxxx shall transfer to Xxxxx all of Xxxxxxxxxx'x
collateral interests securing the Guaranty.

shares of common stock of Futech at a price of $.05 per share. The common stock
acquired by Rosepink under this provision shall contain all of the rights and
restrictions applicable to the common stock of Futech. Futech makes and has made
no representation or warranty as to the value of Futech's stock, such value
being Rosepink's risk.
5. Effective immediately and automatically at the funding of the Loan,
Futech shall be obligated to issue to Xxxxx, as soon as is practicable, warrants
in the form of Exhibit "A" attached to the Agreement, for Xxxxx to acquire
5,000,000 shares of common stock of Futech at a
2
10
price of $.05 per share. The common stock acquired by Xxxxx under this
provision shall contain all of the rights and restrictions applicable to the
common stock of Futech. Futech makes and has made no representation or warranty
as to the value of Futech's stock, such value being Xxxxx'x risk.
6. Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxx hereby confirm the representations and warranties
set out in Exhibit "B" to the Agreement, with said representations and
warranties to be applied to the warrants described herein and the Futech stock
to be acquired in connection with said warrants.
7. Futech represents and warrants to Xxxxxxxxxx that a true and complete
list of the number of outstanding shares of stock in Futech and all warrants
and stock options (including their respective strike or exercise price) in
Futech is attached as APPENDIX ONE to this Amendment. Futech agrees that it
will not issue any additional common stock, preferred stock, warrants, or stock
options in Futech without the written consent of Xxxxxxxxxx. Any request made
