THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

 

In consideration of payment by Funder to Merchant of the Purchase Price set forth above, Merchant hereby sells, assigns and transfers to Funder (making Funder the absolute owner) all of the payments, receipts, settlements and funds paid to or received by or for the account of Merchant from time to time on and after the date hereof in payment or settlement of Merchant’s existing and future accounts, payment intangibles, credit, debit and/or stored value card transactions, contract rights and other entitlements arising from or relating to the payment of monies from Merchant’s customers’ and/or other payors or obligors (the “Future Receipts” or “Receipts” are defined as all payments made by cash, check, clearinghouse settlement, electronic transfer or other form of monetary payment), for the payments to Merchant as a result of Merchant’s sale of goods and/ or services (the “Transactions”) until the Purchased Amount has been delivered by or on behalf of Merchant to Funder.

Merchant is selling a future revenue stream to Funder at a discount, and is not borrowing money from Funder, therefore there is no interest rate or payment schedule and no time period during which the Purchased Amount must be collected by Funder. The Remittance is a good faith estimate of periodic payments to be made to Funder based on the Remittance Percentage and the financial and Average Monthly Revenue information provided by Merchant, which financial information, Average Monthly Revenue and the Remittance estimate Merchant hereby confirms to be correct and accurate. Merchant going bankrupt or going out of business, or experiencing a slowdown in business, or a delay in collecting its receivables, in and of itself, does not constitute a breach of this Agreement. Funder is entering this Agreement knowing the risks that Merchant’s business may not perform as expected or fail, and Funder assumes these risks based on Merchant’s representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement, which are designed to give Funder a reasonable and fair opportunity to receive the benefit of its bargain. Funder acknowledges that it may never receive the Purchased Amount in the event that the Merchant does not generate sufficient revenue. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) are only guaranteeing their performance of the terms of this Revenue Purchase Agreement, and are not guaranteeing the payment of the Purchased Amount. The initial Remittance shall be as described above. The Remittance is subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.3 and Section 1.4.

 

Funder will debit the Remittance on the Payment Frequency as set forth in this Agreement from only one depositing bank account, which account must be acceptable to, and pre-approved by, Funder (the “Account”) into which Merchant and Merchant’s customers shall remit the Receipts from each Transaction, until such time as Funder receives payment in full of the Purchased Amount. Merchant hereby authorizes Funder to ACH debit the agreed Remittance from the Account on the agreed upon Payment Frequency; a daily basis means any day that is not a United States banking holiday, provided that Funder may collect twice the Remittance amount on the date following such banking holiday; a weekly basis means on the first day of the week that is not a United States banking holiday unless parties agree in writing on the other day of the week; Funder may alter the Payment Frequency from weekly to daily upon Event of Default or missed Remittance. The first Remittance amount on the weekly basis may be prorated based on the number of days between the Purchase Price payment date and the payment date of the first Remittance on the weekly basis. Merchant agrees not to make or cause debits to the Account (other than in favor of Funder) at any time that would cause the balance therein on any business day to be insufficient to fund payment in full of the agreed Remittance. The Account may not be used for any personal, family or household purposes. Merchant will provide Funder with all required access codes and monthly bank statements regarding the Account so that Funder may monitor the Account. The terms herein do not create a binding agreement and only Funder’s payment of the Purchase Price shall be deemed the acceptance and performance by Funder of this Agreement. Any subsequent draft agreement sent by Funder prior to payment of the Purchase Price supersedes, replaces, cancels and withdraws this Agreement. Merchant understands that it is responsible for ensuring that the agreed Remittance to be debited by Funder remains in the Account and will be held responsible for any fees incurred by Funder resulting from a rejected ACH attempt or an Event of Default. Funder is not responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that may result from Funder’s ACH debiting the agreed Remittance under the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other agreement between Funder and Merchant, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Remittance Percentage shall equal 100%. A list of all fees applicable under this Agreement is contained in Appendix A.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

1         TERMS OF ENROLLMENT IN PROGRAM

 

1.1 Merchant Deposit Agreement and Processor. Merchant shall (a) execute an agreement acceptable to Funder with a bank acceptable to Funder to obtain electronic fund transfer services for the Account, and (b) if applicable, execute an agreement acceptable to Funder with a credit and debit card processor (the “Processor”) instructing the Processor to deposit all Receipts into the Account. Merchant shall provide Funder and/or its authorized agent(s) with all of the information, authorizations and passwords necessary for verifying Merchant’s receivables, receipts, deposits and withdrawals into and from the Account. Merchant hereby authorizes Funder and/or its agent(s) to withdraw from the Account via ACH debit the amounts owed to Funder for the receipts as specified herein and to pay such amounts to Funder. These authorizations apply not only to the approved Account but also to any subsequent or alternate account used by the Merchant for these deposits, whether pre-approved by Funder or not. This additional authorization is not a waiver of Funder’s entitlement to declare this Agreement breached by Merchant as a result of its usage of an account which Funder did not first pre-approve in writing prior to Merchant’s usage thereof. The aforementioned authorizations shall be irrevocable without the written consent of Funder. Merchant acknowledges that it is entering into this Agreement in the ordinary course of its business and that the remittances to be made under this Agreement are being made in the ordinary course of Merchant’s business.

 

1.2 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the entire Purchased Amount and any other amounts due are received by Funder as the terms of this Agreement. The provisions of Sections 1.1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.7, 1.8, 1.10, 1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.17, 2.3, 2.9, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.10, and 4.11 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

1.3 Reconciliation. As long as an Event of Default or breach of this Agreement has not occurred, Merchant, at any time, may request a retroactive reconciliation of the total Remittance amount. All requests hereunder must be in writing to Reconciliations@NewCoCapitalGroup.com. Said request must include copies of all of Merchant’s bank account statements, credit card processing statements, and accounts receivable reports outstanding if applicable, from the date of this Agreement through and including the date the request is made. If you have questions or comments about your financing, you may contact us by e-mail at Questions@NewCoCapitalGroup.com. Funder retains the right to reasonably request additional documentation including bank login or access to view all Merchant’s accounts using third party software, to correctly and accurately perform the reconciliation, and Merchant’s refusal to provide access shall negate Funder’s obligation to perform a reconciliation until the Merchant provides the appropriate documents and access for Funder to perform a reconciliation. Such reconciliation, if applicable, shall be performed by Funder within five (5) business days following its receipt of Merchant’s request for reconciliation and supporting documentation and access by either crediting or debiting the difference back to, or from, Merchant’s bank Account so that the total amount debited by Funder shall equal the Remittance Percentage of the Receipts that Merchant collected during the contract term.

 

1.4 Adjustments to the Remittance. As long as an Event of Default, or breach of this Agreement, has not occurred, Merchant may give notice to Funder to request a decrease in the Remittance should Merchant experience a decrease in its Future Receipts. All requests hereunder must be in writing to Reconciliations@NewCoCapitalGroup.com and must include copies of all of Merchant’s bank account statements, credit card processing statements, and accounts receivable reports outstanding from the date of this Agreement through and including the date the request is made. Funder retains the right to reasonably request additional documentation including bank login or 3rd party software access to view all Merchant’s accounts, refusal to provide such documentation or access shall negate Funder’s obligation to adjust the Remittance until the Merchant provides the appropriate documentation and access. The Remittance shall be modified to more closely reflect the Merchant’s actual Receipts by multiplying the Merchant’s actual Receipts by the Remittance Percentage divided by the number of business days in the previous two (2) calendar weeks. Merchant shall provide Funder with viewing access to their bank account as well as all information reasonably requested by Funder to properly calculate the Merchant’s Remittance. At the end of the two (2) calendar weeks the Merchant may request another adjustment pursuant to this Section or it is agreed that the Merchant’s Remittance shall return to the Remittance as agreed upon on Page 1 of this Agreement.

 

1.5 Financial Condition. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) (as hereinafter defined and limited) authorize Funder and its agents to investigate their financial responsibility and history, and will provide to Funder any authorizations, bank or financial statements, tax returns, etc., as Funder requests in its sole and absolute discretion prior to or at any time after execution of this Agreement. A photocopy of this authorization will be deemed as acceptable as an authorization for release of financial and credit information. Funder is authorized to update such information and financial and credit profiles from time to time as it deems appropriate. Merchant shall provide bank login information, or 3rd party software access, to view Merchant’s Account in connection with this Agreement. If Merchant changes the Account’s login information, Merchant must provide Funder with the updated login information in writing within 48 hours of such change. Merchant understands and agrees that Funder’s access to the Account is expressly limited to monitoring for defaults under the Agreement. Upon Funder’s request, Merchant shall within 48 hours provide login information to its bookkeeping software and/or provide weekly accounts receivable aging reports.

 

1.6 Transactional History. Merchant authorizes all of its banks, brokers and processors to provide Funder with Merchant’s banking, brokerage and/or processing history to determine qualification or continuation in this program and for collections purposes. Merchant shall provide Funder with copies of any documents related to Merchant’s card processing activity or financial and banking affairs within five (5) calendar days after a request from Funder.

 

1.7 Indemnification. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) hereby jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Funder and each Processor, their respective officers, directors, agents and representatives, contractors, affiliates, and shareholders (“Indemnitees”) against all losses, damages, costs, claims, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by any such Indemnitee as a direct or indirect result of (a) claims asserted by Funder for monies owed to Funder from Merchant and (b) actions taken by any Indemnitee in reliance upon any fraudulent, misleading or deceptive information or instructions provided by Merchant or any Guarantor(s).

 

1.8 No Liability. In no event will Funder be liable for any claims asserted by Merchant or Guarantor(s)s under any legal or equitable theory for lost profits, lost revenues, lost business opportunities, exemplary, punitive, special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages, each of which is waived by both, Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s). In the event these claims are nonetheless raised, Merchant and each Guarantor(s)s will be jointly liable for all of Funder’s attorney’s fees and expenses resulting therefrom.

 

1.9 Reliance on Terms. Section 1.1, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 2.5 of this Agreement are agreed to for the benefit of Merchant, Funder, Processor, and Merchant’s bank and notwithstanding the fact that Processor and the bank are not a party of this Agreement, Processor and the bank may rely upon their terms and raise them as a defense in any action.

1.10 Sale of Receipts. Merchant and Funder agree that the Purchase Price under this Agreement is in exchange for the Purchased Amount, and that such Purchase Price is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as a loan from Funder to Merchant. Merchant agrees that the Purchase Price is in exchange for the sale the Receipts pursuant to this Agreement, and that it equals the fair market value of such Receipts. Funder has purchased and shall own all the Receipts described in this Agreement up to the full Purchased Amount as the Receipts are created. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that Receipts collected by Merchant are being held by Merchant in trust for the benefit of Funder for purposes of carrying out the terms of this Agreement and are the sole property of Funder until they are remitted to Funder. Merchant shall not use Funder’s share of Receipts apportioned to Remittance and shall reflect Funder’s ownership of Receipts on its books and records. Payments made to Funder in respect to the full Purchased Amount shall be conditioned upon Merchant’s sale of products and services, and the payment therefor by Merchant’s customers. By this Agreement, Merchant transfers to Funder full and complete ownership of the Purchased Amount and Merchant retains no legal or equitable interest therein. Funder hereby appoints Merchant, and Merchant accepts appointment, as servicer for and on behalf of Funder for the purpose of collecting and delivering Receipts to Funder as required by this Agreement until Funder has received the Purchased Amount. Merchant agrees that it will treat the amounts it receives and the purchased Receipts delivered to Funder under this Agreement in a manner consistent with a sale in its accounting records and tax returns. Merchant agrees that Funder is entitled to audit Merchant’s accounting records upon reasonable notice in order to verify compliance. Merchant waives any rights of privacy, confidentiality or taxpayer privilege in any litigation or arbitration in which Merchant asserts that this transaction is anything other than a sale of future receipts. In no event shall the aggregate of all amounts paid or payable to Funder hereunder, or any portion thereof be deemed as interest hereunder, and in the event it is found to be interest despite the parties hereto specifically representing that it is NOT interest, it shall be found that no sum charged or collected hereunder shall exceed the highest rate permissible at law. In the event that a court nonetheless determines that Funder has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by applicable law and Funder shall promptly refund to Merchant any interest received by Funder in excess of the maximum lawful rate, it being intended that Merchant not pay or contract to pay, and that Funder not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Merchant under applicable law. In connection with the foregoing, Merchant knowingly and willingly waives the defense of usury in any action or proceeding should this transaction be deemed that of a loan and not a purchase of receivables.

 

1.11 Power of Attorney. Merchant irrevocably appoints Funder and its agents and representatives, as its agent and attorney-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to settle and ensure payment of all obligations due to Funder from Processor or Merchant, regardless of whether the obligation is current or due to a violation by Merchant of Section 1 or the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 3 hereof, including without limitation: (i) to obtain and adjust insurance; (ii) to collect monies due or to become due under or in respect of any of the Secured Assets; (iii) to receive, endorse and collect any checks, notes, drafts, instruments, documents or chattel paper in connection with clause (i) or clause (ii) above; (iv) to sign Merchant’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, or assignment directing customers or account debtors to make payment directly to Funder; (v) to contact Merchant’s banks and financial institutions using Merchant and Guarantor(s)’ personal information to verify the existence of an account and obtain account balances; and (vi) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceeding which Funder may deem necessary for the collection of any of the unpaid Purchased Amount from the Secured Assets, or otherwise to enforce its rights with respect to payment of the Purchased Amount including but not limited to, notifying and instructing account debtors of Merchant and any of Merchant’s Processors to remit payment of accounts and other collateral owed to Merchant directly to Funder. In connection therewith, all costs, expenses and fees, including legal fees, shall be payable by Merchant.

 

1.12 Protection of Information. Merchant and each person signing this Agreement on behalf of Merchant and/or as Owner or Guarantor(s), in respect of himself or herself personally, authorizes Funder to disclose information concerning Merchant’s, each Owner’s, and each Guarantor(s)’s credit standing (including credit bureau reports that Funder obtains) and business conduct only to agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and credit reporting bureaus. Merchant, each Owner, and each Guarantor(s) hereby waive to the maximum extent permitted by law any claim for damages against Funder or any of its affiliates relating to any (i) investigation undertaken by or on behalf of Funder as permitted by this Agreement or (ii) disclosure of information as permitted by this Agreement.

 

1.13 Confidentiality. Merchant understands and agrees that the terms and conditions of the products and services offered by Funder, including this Agreement and any other Funder documents (collectively, “Confidential Information”) are proprietary and confidential information of Funder. Accordingly, unless disclosure is required by law or court order, Merchant shall not disclose Confidential Information of Funder to any person other than an attorney, accountant, financial advisor or employee of Merchant who needs to know such information for the purpose of advising Merchant (“Advisor”), provided such Advisor uses such information solely for the purpose of advising Merchant and first agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this section. A breach hereof entitles Funder to not only damages and reasonable attorney’s fees but also to both a Temporary Restraining Order and a Preliminary Injunction without bond or security.

 

1.14 Publicity. Merchant and each of Merchant’s Owners and all Guarantor(s) hereby authorize Funder to use its name in listings of clients and in advertising and marketing materials.

 

1.15 D/B/A’s. Merchant hereby acknowledges and agrees that Funder may be using “doing business as” or “d/b/a” names in connection with various matters relating to the transaction between Funder and Merchant, including the filing of UCC-1 financing statements and other notices or filings.

 

1.16 Authority to Contact. Merchant and Owner/Guarantor(s) explicitly agree to be contacted by Funder and its agents and affiliates by telephone, email and/or SMS / text messaging provided in connection with this Agreement and agree to cover all usual third- party costs or charges that may be associated with such contacts. Merchant and Owner/Guarantor(s) understand that they are not required to agree to this Section as a condition of entering into this Agreement.

 

1.17 Authority to Service Accounts. In the event Merchant is unable or unwilling to collect all or some of the Receipts, Funder shall have the right, without waiving any of its other rights and remedies under this Agreement, to notify the Processor, any other credit card or payment processor used by Merchant, or any third party having monies owed to Merchant for its sale or delivery of goods or services (including without limitation Merchant’s customers), of the sale of the Receipts under this Agreement, and to direct such credit card, payment processor or other third party to make payment to Funder of all or any portion of the amounts received by such credit card, payment processor or third party on behalf of Merchant. If no Event of Default has occurred, Funder shall remit back to Merchant the excess above the Remittance Percentage of the Receipts that it collected pursuant to this paragraph within 2 business days of payment and shall provide a reconciliation in accordance with Section 1.3.

Merchant further represents and warrants that it does not anticipate filing any such bankruptcy petition nor does Merchant anticipate that an involuntary petition will be filed against Merchant.

2.11 Business Purpose. Merchant is a valid business in good standing under the laws of the jurisdictions in which it is organized and/or operates, and Merchant is entering into this Agreement for business purposes and not as a consumer for personal, family or household purposes.

3         EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

Merchant’s default upon the Agreement frustrates Funder’s ability to fund other commercial financings and engage in additional business. Merchant’s default on the Agreement would require Funder to maintain additional staff and increased payroll to address and carry out internal procedures solely related to a default including but not limited to maintaining staff to support additional communications with Merchant and Guarantor(s) in relation to default, evaluating Merchant’s financial statements and debt obligations, preparing Merchant’s file, negotiating and drafting security release and subordination agreements, and providing Merchant with updated balance statements. Merchant and Guarantor(s) agree that the fee for Rejected ACH/Blocked ACH or Default fee is reasonable and bears a reasonable proportion to the probable loss that Funder may incur, as the actual loss may not be capable of estimation.

 

3.2 Limited Performance Guaranty. Guarantor(s) shall provide a limited guaranty of performance in connection with this Agreement (“Guaranty"). The Guaranty shall only guaranty the Merchant’s performance of the covenants, representations and conditions of this Agreement and shall not guarantee the Remittance payment except upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Funder may enforce its rights against the Guarantor(s) of this transaction. Each Guarantor(s) will be jointly and severally liable to Funder for all of Funder’s losses and damages, in addition to all costs and expenses and legal fees associated with such enforcement. For the avoidance of doubt, Guarantor(s) shall not be liable in the event that Merchant is not liable under this Agreement.

If Funder, Merchant, or any Guarantor requests, the other party(ies) agrees to arbitrate, through binding individual arbitration, any and all claims and disputes relating in any way to this Agreement or the parties’ dealings with one another (“Claims”) unless prohibited by Federal law. Claims concerning the validity, scope or enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement are expressly exempted from this Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement involves interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16 (“FAA”), and not by state law. In any claim or dispute to be resolved by arbitration, Merchant, Guarantor(s), and Funder will not be able to have a court or jury trial or participate in a class action or class arbitration. Other rights that Merchant, Guarantor(s), or Funder would have if the dispute went to court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including the right to appeal. Merchant, Guarantor(s), and Funder understand and agree that, if arbitration is requested, through individual arbitration, THE PARTIES ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. ALL DISPUTES SHALL BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY SIMILAR PROCEEDING. The arbitrator(s) may not consolidate the claims of multiple parties without the parties’ express written consent. Arbitrations shall be administered, as determined by the party commencing the arbitration, either by American Arbitration Association, New Era ADR or Resolute Dispute Resolution Nationwide pursuant to their applicable arbitration rules in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated. Information about arbitration, arbitration procedures and fees may be obtained by visiting www.adr.org., https://www.neweraadr.com/, or https://resolutesystems.com/. The parties hereby agree to any portion of the fee allocated to them by the arbitrating body promptly and further agree that if any one party is required to pay any portion of the other party’s arbitration fee for any reason, that amount shall be recoverable by the party who paid it and in any resulting arbitration award. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding. The parties agree that this Arbitration Agreement extends to any other parties involved in any Claims including but not limited to successors and assigns, servicers, agents, and backup services. Merchant, Guarantor(s), and Funder each may exercise any lawful rights to seek provisional remedies or self-help, without waiving the right to arbitrate by doing so. The parties may confirm the arbitration award in either the courts of the State of New York or in the courts of the State where Merchant or Guarantor(s) is located. The prevailing party in Arbitration will be entitled to recover any costs associated with confirming the award.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the foregoing class action waiver and prohibition against class arbitration is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, then this entire Arbitration Agreement shall be void. If a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in the Arbitration Agreement prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims will be arbitrated. In such a case, the court shall stay the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be arbitrated. If any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of this Agreement, Merchant’s and Guarantor(s) fulfillment or default of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and/or bankruptcy or insolvency of any party to this Agreement (to the extent permitted by applicable law).

SECURITY AGREEMENT

 

Security Interest. This Agreement will constitute a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code. To secure Merchant’s obligations under the Revenue Purchase Agreement to make available or deliver Purchased Amount to Funder and Funder’s right to realize the Purchased Amount, as and to the extent required by the terms of the Revenue Purchase Agreement, and performance of and compliance by Merchant with its other undertakings and agreements here in, Merchant and Guarantor(s) grant to Funder a continuing security interest in and lien upon: (a) all accounts, chattel paper, documents, equipment, general intangibles, instruments, and inventory, as those terms are each defined in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”), now or hereafter owned or acquired by Merchant and/or Guarantor(s)(s), (b) all proceeds, as that term is defined in Article 9 of the UCC (c) all funds at any time in the Merchant’s and/or Guarantor(s) (s) Account, regardless of the source of such funds, (d) present and future Electronic Check Transactions, and (e) any amount which may be due to Funder under this Agreement, including but not limited to all rights to receive any payments or credits under this Agreement (collectively, the “Secured Assets”).

 

Merchant and Guarantor agree to provide other security to Funder upon request to secure Merchant’s obligations under this Agreement. Merchant and Guarantor agree that, if at any time there are insufficient funds in Merchant’s Account to cover Funder’s entitlements under this Agreement, Funder is granted a further security interest in all of Merchant’s and Guarantor’s assets of any kind whatsoever to the fullest extent permitted by law, and such assets shall then become Secured Assets. These security interests and liens will secure all of Funder’s entitlements under this Agreement and any other agreements now existing or later entered into between

 

Merchant, Funder or an affiliate of Funder. In the event Merchant or any of its Guarantor(s) forms or causes to be formed a new entity or otherwise becomes associated with any new or existing entity (including but not limited to affiliation, merger, acquisition or consolidation) which operates a business similar to or the same as that of Merchant or any of its Guarantor(s), such new or existing entity shall be deemed to have expressly assumed Merchant’s and such Guarantor’s obligations due to Funder under this Agreement. Funder shall be deemed to have been granted an irrevocable power of attorney over any such new or existing entity to file any and all financing statements required under the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limiting the generality of foregoing, security interest granted hereby by Guarantor(s) shall extend to payments and performance of all present and future debts, liabilities and obligations of Guarantor(s) to Funder hereunder including, without limitation, under, in connection with or relating to the Guaranty of Performance (as defined below).

 

Funder shall be held harmless by Merchant and each Owner/Guarantor(s) and be relieved of any liability as a result of any such authentication and filing of any such financing statement or the resulting perfection of its ownership rights or security interests in such entity’s assets. Funder shall have the right at any time to notify Merchant’s and such other entity’s, as applicable, payors or account debtors (as defined by the UCC) of Funder’s rights, including without limitation, Funder’s right to collect all accounts, and to notify any payment card processor or creditor of such entity that Funder has such rights in such entity’s assets. Merchant and Guarantor(s) also agree that, at the Funder’s discretion, Funder may choose to amend any existing financing statement to include any such newly formed entity as debtor. This security interest may be exercised by Funder without notice or demand of any kind, including but not limited to, by making an immediate withdrawal or freezing the Secured Assets.

Pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended from time to time, Funder has control over and may direct the disposition of the Secured Assets, without further consent of Merchant or Guarantor(s). Merchant and Guarantor(s) hereby represent and warrant that no other person or entity has a security interest in the Secured Assets except as set forth in this Agreement. With respect to such security interests and liens, Funder will have all rights afforded under the Uniform Commercial Code, any other applicable law and in equity. Merchant and Guarantor(s) will obtain from Funder written consent prior to granting a security interest of any kind in the Secured Assets to a third party. Merchant and Guarantor(s) (s) agree(s) that this is a contract of recoupment and Funder is not required to preserve its rights to this Agreement by seeking automatic stay relief under the Bankruptcy Code and Merchant and Guarantor(s) shall not contest any efforts by Funder to protect and preserve its rights under the Bankruptcy Code. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) agree(s) to execute and deliver to Funder such instruments and documents Funder may reasonably request (including the execution of any account control agreements) and take any action in connection with this Agreement as Funder deems necessary to perfect, maintain and confirm Funder’s first priority security interest in the Secured Assets and additional collateral, the lien, and right of set off set forth in this Agreement. Funder is authorized to execute all such instruments and documents in Merchant’s and Guarantor(s)(s) name.

 

Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) each acknowledge and agree that any security interest granted to Funder under any other agreement between Merchant or Guarantor(s)(s) and Funder (the “Cross-Collateral”) will secure the obligations hereunder and under the Revenue Purchase Agreement. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) each hereby authorizes Funder to file any financing statements deemed necessary by Funder to perfect or maintain Funder’s security interest. Funder disclaims any security interest in household goods of Guarantor, in which Funder is forbidden by law from taking a security interest.

 

Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) shall be liable for, and Funder may charge and collect, all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorney’s fees, which may be incurred by Funder in protecting, preserving and enforcing Funder’s security interest and rights.

 

Negative Pledge. Merchant and Guarantor(s)(s) each agrees not to create, incur, assume, or permit to exist, directly or indirectly, any lien on or with respect to any of the Secured Assets or the additional collateral, as applicable.

 

Consent to Enter Premises and Assign Lease. Funder shall have the right to cure Merchant’s default in the payment of rent on the following terms. In the event Merchant is served with papers in an action against Merchant for nonpayment of rent or for summary eviction, Funder may execute its rights and remedies under the assignment of lease. Merchant also agrees that Funder may enter into an agreement with Merchant’s landlord giving Funder the right: (a) to enter Merchant’s premises and to take possession of the fixtures and equipment therein for the purpose of protecting and preserving same; and/or (b) to assign Merchant’s lease to another qualified business capable of operating a business comparable to Merchant’s at such premises.

 

Remedies. Upon any Event of Default, Funder may pursue any remedy available at law (including those available under the provisions of the UCC), or in equity to collect, enforce, or satisfy any obligations then owing to Funder, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

 

GUARANTY OF PERFORMANCE

 

As an additional inducement for Funder to enter into the Revenue Purchase Agreement, the undersigned Guarantor(s)(s) hereby provides Funder with this Guaranty. Guarantor(s)(s) will not be personally liable for any amount due under the Revenue Purchase Agreement unless Merchant commits an Event of Default pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Revenue Purchase Agreement. Each Guarantor(s) shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts owed to Funder in the Event of Default. Guarantor(s) (s) guarantee Merchant’s good faith, truthfulness and performance of all of the representations, warranties, covenants made by Merchant in this Agreement including the Merchant’s full and timely delivery of the Purchased Amount pursuant to (and limited by) the Revenue Purchase Agreement, in each case as each may be renewed, amended, extended or otherwise modified (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Guarantor(s)’s obligations are due at the time of any breach by Merchant of any representation, warranty, or covenant made by Merchant in the Agreement.

 

Guarantor(s) Waivers. In the event of a breach of the above, Funder may seek recovery from Guarantor(s)s for all of Funder’s losses and damages by enforcement of Funder’s rights under this Agreement without first seeking to obtain payment from Merchant, any other Guarantor(s), or any Secured Assets or additional collateral Funder may hold pursuant to this Agreement or any other guaranty. In addition, Sections 4.5, 4.10 and 4.11 in the Revenue Purchase Agreement Terms and Conditions are expressly reiterated in the Security Agreement and the Guaranty of Performance herein. Funder is not required to notify Guarantor(s) of any of the following events and Guarantor(s) will not be released from its obligations under this Agreement if it is not notified of: (i) Merchant’s failure to pay timely any amount required under the Revenue Purchase Agreement; (ii) any adverse change in Merchant’s financial condition or business; (iii) any sale or other disposition of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) Funder’s acceptance of this Agreement; and (v) any renewal, extension or other modification of the Revenue Purchase Agreement or Merchant’s other obligations to Funder. In addition, Funder may take any of the following actions without releasing Guarantor(s) from any of its obligations under this Agreement: (i) renew, extend or otherwise modify the Revenue Purchase Agreement or Merchant’s other obligations to Funder; (ii) release Merchant from its obligations to Funder; (iii) sell, release, impair, waive or otherwise fail to realize upon any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (iv) foreclose on any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations in a manner that impairs or precludes the right of Guarantor(s) to obtain reimbursement for payment under this Agreement. Until the Purchased Amount and Merchant’s other obligations to Funder under the Revenue Purchase Agreement including this Security Agreement are paid in full, Guarantor(s) shall not seek reimbursement from Merchant or any other Guarantor(s) for any amounts paid by it under this Agreement. Guarantor(s) permanently waives and shall not seek to exercise any of the following rights that it may have against Merchant, any other Guarantor(s), or any collateral provided by Merchant or any other Guarantor(s), for any amounts paid by it, or acts performed by it, under this Agreement: (i) subrogation; (ii) reimbursement; (iii) performance; (iv) indemnification; or (v) contribution.

 

In the event that Funder must return any amount paid by Merchant or any other Guarantor(s) of the Guaranteed Obligations because that person has become subject to a proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar law, Guarantor(s)’s obligations under this Agreement shall continue and survive throughout the bankruptcy proceeding and after the proceeding has closed. Guarantor(s) acknowledges that: (i) He/She is bound by the Class Action Waiver provision in the Revenue Purchase Agreement Terms and Conditions; (ii) He/She understands the seriousness of the provisions of this Agreement; (iii) He/She has had a full opportunity to consult with counsel of his/her choice; and (iv) He/ She has consulted with counsel of its choice or has decided not to avail himself/herself of that opportunity.

In the event of default, Merchant authorizes Funder to collect the full Purchased Amount balance plus any applicable fees due from the Merchant under the Revenue Purchase Agreement by initiating either a single or multiple ACH debits to the Designated Checking Account.

 

MISCELLANEOUS. Funder is not responsible for any fees charged by Merchant’s bank as the result of credits or debits initiated under this Authorization Agreement. The origination of ACH debits and credits to the Designated Checking Account must comply with applicable provisions of state and federal law, and the rules and operating guidelines of NACHA (formerly known as the National Automated Clearing House Association). This Authorization Agreement is to remain in full force and effect until Funder has received written notification from Merchant at the address set forth below at least 5 banking days prior to its termination to afford Funder a reasonable opportunity to act on it. The individual signing below on behalf of Merchant certifies that he/she is an authorized signer on the Designated Checking Account. Merchant will not dispute any ACH transaction initiated pursuant to this Authorization Agreement, provided the transaction corresponds to the terms of this Authorization Agreement. Merchant requests the financial institution that holds the Designated Checking Account to honor all ACH entries initiated in accordance with this Authorization Agreement.
