EXHIBIT 10.3
REVOLVING LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
This Revolving Loan and Security Agreement ("Agreement") is entered
into this date by and between Xxxxx Xxxxx, a resident of Utah County, Utah
("Lender") and Quest Group International, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("Borrower").
WHEREAS, the Lender is a stockholder and affiliate of the Borrower and
both the Lender and the Borrower believe that it is in their mutual interest to
enter into this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Periodic Loans. During the term hereof, Lender hereby agrees to make
periodic loans (collectively and individually, the "Loans") to the Borrower in
an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed ONE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($100,000) ("Maximum Amount"). Beginning on November 1,
2001 and ending on April 30, 2002, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the
default provisions of this Agreement, from time to time Borrower may notify the
Lender of its need to borrow funds pursuant to this Agreement. Within five
business days of receipt of such notice from the Borrower seeking to borrow
funds, the Lender shall forward such funds to the Borrower up to, but not in
excess of, the Maximum Amount. All amounts lent hereunder shall be evidenced by
ten percent (10%) promissory notes in substantially the same form as attached
hereto as Exhibit "A" (the "Notes"). Borrower shall deliver to Lender Notes in
the principal amount of funds lent on each date that Lender provides funds to
Borrower hereunder.
Section 2. Finance Charges and Other Consideration. All principal and interest
then outstanding shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.
Lender shall also receive 1,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's common
stock (the "Stock") as additional consideration for the Loans. The Stock will be
returned by Lender to the Borrower for cancellation if Borrower attempts to draw
funds in compliance with the terms and conditions hereof and the Lender is
unable or refuses to fund the amounts requested. Until the earlier of April 30,
2001 or the date the Maximum Amount is leant by Lender to Borrower hereunder,
Lender agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Stock and
Borrower, in its discretion, may place a legend on the Stock noting this
restriction.
Section 3. Payments.
3.1 All principal and interest outstanding shall be due and payable by
the Borrower to the Lender in a single balloon payment on September 18, 2002.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if not more than $50,000 in principal is owing on
September 18, 2002 then all principal and interest outstanding on September 18,
2002 shall be due and payable by the Borrower to the Lender in a single balloon
payment on September 18, 2003. The Borrower may, from time to time, in the
Borrower's discretion, make one or more periodic payments to the Lender. Such
payments shall be credited to the Borrower's account on the date that such
payment is physically received by the Lender. Such payments shall be applied
first to the interest outstanding, and then to the principal outstanding.
3.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower hereby covenants and
agrees that Loans made by Lender, loans in the principal amount of up to $50,000
made by Xxxxxxx Dynasty, LC to Borrower and loans in the principal amount of up
to $50,000 made by XxXxxxxx Enterprises Inc. Profit Sharing Plan and Trust to
Borrower shall be repaid prorata based on the outstanding principal amount of
each of the referenced loans. For example, if Lender had lent $100,000 and each
of the other referenced parties had lent $50,000 to Borrower and Borrower was
repaying an aggregate of $100,000, then Lender would receive $50,000 and each of
the other parties would receive a $25,000 payment to be applied against the
amounts owing on such loans.
Section 4. Conditions Precedent. The obligation of Lender to disburse all or any
part of the Loan under this Agreement is subject to the satisfaction, on or
before each date funds are lent hereunder, of all the conditions set out below
in this Section 4. Lender may waive any or all of these conditions in whole or
in part without prior notice; provided, however, that no such waiver of a
condition shall constitute a waiver by Lender of any of its other rights or
remedies, at law or in equity, if Borrower shall be in default of any of its
representations, warranties, or covenants under this Agreement.
4.1 From the date hereof to the date of each disbursement, there shall
not have been any material adverse change in the financial condition or the
results of operations of Borrower, and Borrower shall not have sustained any
material loss or damage to its assets, whether or not insured, that materially
affects its ability to conduct a material part of its business.
4.2 No action, suit, or proceeding before any court or any governmental
body or authority pertaining to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement
or to its consummation, shall have been instituted or threatened on or before
the date of disbursement.
4.3 The execution and delivery and performance of this Agreement and
any note or other instrument or agreement required under this Agreement by
Borrower shall have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and
Lender shall have received copies of all resolutions pertaining to that
authorization, certified by the secretary of Borrower as being in full force and
effect on the date of first disbursement.
4.4 No periodic loans may be drawn hereunder until and unless loans in
the principal amount of $50,000 have been made by Xxxxxxx Dynasty, LC and
XxXxxxxx Enterprises Inc. Profit Sharing Plan and Trust to Borrower.
Section 5. Grant of Security Interest.

payment and performance of all obligations and covenants contained in the Notes,

any such attachment or other process is issued before or after entry of
judgment.

expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting or
enforcing its rights upon or under the Notes or the Collateral, and such
expenses are secured hereunder. If the Borrower shall default in the performance
of any of the provisions of this Agreement, Lender may cure the default for the
Borrower's account, and any monies expended in doing so shall be paid on demand,
together with interest from the date expended at twelve percent (12%) per annum.
10.2 The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver such financing
statements, certificates of title or other evidence of title or ownership, and
other instruments as Lender may reasonably request in order to perfect or
protect the security interest granted hereunder. A copy of this Agreement may be
filed as a financing statement.
10.3 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties pertaining to the subject matter contained in this Agreement. All prior

10.6 If any action is brought by either party in respect to its rights
under this Agreement, or to obtain an interpretation thereof, the prevailing
party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs as
determined by the court.
10.7 No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall
constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall
any waiver be a continuing waiver. Except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, no waiver shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party
making the waiver. Either party may waive any provision of this Agreement
intended for its benefit; provided, however, such waiver shall in no way excuse
the other party from the performance of any of its other obligations under this
Agreement.
10.8 This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Utah.
Any legal action to enforce or obtain an interpretation of this Agreement may be
filed in the Fourth Judicial District Court of Utah County, or the Third
