LOAN AGREEMENT
Party A: Horn Enterprise Co., Ltd., as the Borrower herein.
Party B: Huang Hsin-Ming, serving as the Borrower’s director, as the Lender herein.
Party A is a software system and hardware development company.

All loan transactions are subject to the records in the passbook of Hua Nan Bank. Employee retirement old-age pension/labor insurance/health insurance shall be paid by Party B in cash. If Party A starts to make profits and its income is sufficient to repay the above loans, Party B may calculate the total loan amount as per passbook transaction records/ insurance payment records (retirement old-age pension/labor insurance/health insurance) and regard the amount as the total amount of lump-sum repayable herein.
This Loan Agreement is agreed upon and signed by both Parties without any objection.
