Effective, March 21, 2022 Seller, identified above, hereby sells, assigns and transfers to Advantage Platform Services Inc. d/b/a Advantage Capital Funding (“Buyer” or "Advantage Capital Funding" ) , located at 104 E 25th St, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10010 without recourse, the Specified Percentage of the proceeds of each future sale made by Seller (collectively “Future Receipts”) until Seller has received the Purchased Amount. “Future Receipts” includes all payments made by cash, check, ACH or other electronic transfer, credit card, debit card, bank card, charge card (each such card shall be referred to herein as a “Payment Card”) or other form of monetary payment in the ordinary course of Seller’s business. As payment for the Purchased Amount, Buyer will deliver to Seller the Purchase Price, shown above, minus any Origination Fee shown above. Seller acknowledges that it has no right to repurchase the Purchased Amount from Buyer.

Both parties agree that the obligation of Buyer under this Agreement will not be effective unless and until Buyer has completed its review of the Seller and has accepted this Agreement by delivering the Purchase Price, minus any Origination Fee. Prior to accepting this Agreement, Buyer may conduct a processing trial to confirm its access to the Account and the ability to withdraw the Initial Weekly Amount If the processing trial is not completed to the satisfaction of Buyer, Buyer will refund to Seller all funds that were obtained by Buyer during the processing trial.

Agreement of Seller: By signing below Seller agrees to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, including those terms and conditions on the following pages, and further agrees that this transaction is for business purposes and not for personal, family, or household purposes.

​

​

​

​

​

​

Agreement of Each Seller: Each Seller signing below agrees to the terms of the Credit Report Authorization below.

​

1. Delivery of Purchased Amount: Seller must deposit all Future Receipts into the single business banking account specified above, which may not be used for any personal, family or household purposes (the “Account”) and must instruct Seller’s credit card processor, which must be approved by Buyer (the “Processor”) to deposit all Payment Card receipts of Seller into the Account. Seller agrees not to change the Account or add an additional Account without the express written consent of Buyer. Seller authorizes Buyer to debit the Weekly Amount from the Account each business day by either ACH or electronic check. Seller will provide Buyer with all required access codes and agrees not to change them without prior written consent from Buyer. Seller will provide an appropriate ACH authorization to Buyer. Seller understands that it is responsible for either ensuring that the Weekly Amount is available in the Account each business day or advising Buyer prior to each weekly withdrawal of a shortage of funds. Otherwise, Seller will be responsible for any fees incurred by Buyer resulting from a rejected electronic check or ACH debit attempt, as set forth on Appendix A. Buyer is not responsible for any overdrafts or rejected transactions that may result from Buyer’s debiting any amount authorized under the terms of this Agreement. Seller understands that the foregoing ACH authorization is a fundamental condition to induce Buyer to accept the Agreement. Consequently, such authorization is intended to be irrevocable.

​

2. Reconciliation and Changes to the Weekly Amount: The Initial Weekly Amount is intended to represent the Specified Percentage of Seller’s weekly Future Receipts. For as long as no Event of Default has occurred, Buyer shall on or about the fifteenth day of each month reconcile the Seller’s Account (“Account Reconciliation”) by either crediting or further debiting the Seller’s Account by the difference between the actual amount debited since the date of the last Account Reconciliation and the Specific Percentage of the actual Future Receipts collected by the Seller since the date of the last Account Reconciliation. Failure by Buyer to make an Account Reconciliation at any time for one or more months or portions thereof shall not be deemed as a breach of Buyer’s obligation hereunder and each Account Reconciliation shall be made for the entire period of time since the date of the last Account Reconciliation. Buyer may, at Buyer’s sole discretion as it deems appropriate and upon Seller’s request, adjust the amount of the then- applicable Weekly Amount due under this Agreement in order to cause such Weekly Amount to more accurately reflect an amount which will reduce the need to credit Seller’s account on a consistently recurring basis.

​

3. Weekly Amount Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Weekly Amount shall equal 100% of all Future Receipts.

​

4. Sale of Future Receipts (THIS IS NOT A LOAN): Seller is selling a portion of a future revenue stream to Buyer at a discount, not borrowing money from Buyer. There is no interest rate or payment schedule and no time period during which the Purchased Amount must be collected by Buyer. If Future Receipts are remitted more slowly than Buyer may have anticipated or projected because Seller’s business has slowed down, or if the full Purchased Amount is never remitted because Seller’s business went bankrupt or otherwise ceased operations in the ordinary course of business, and Seller has not breached this Agreement, Seller would not owe anything to Buyer and would not be in breach of or default under this Agreement. Buyer is buying the Purchased Amount of Future Receipts knowing the risks that Seller’s business may slow down or fail, and Buyer assumes these risks based on Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement that are designed to give Buyer a reasonable and fair opportunity to receive the benefit of its bargain. By this Agreement, Seller transfers to Buyer full and complete ownership of the Purchased Amount of Future Receipts and Seller retains no legal or equitable interest therein. Seller agrees that it will treat Purchase Price and Purchased Amount in a manner consistent with a sale in its accounting records and tax returns. Seller agrees that Buyer is entitled to audit Seller’s accounting records upon reasonable Notice in order to verify compliance. Seller waives any rights of privacy, confidentiality or tax payer privilege in any such litigation or arbitration in which Seller asserts that this transaction is anything other than a sale of future receipts.

​

​

​

​

​

​

5. Power of Attorney Seller irrevocably appoints Buyer as its agent and attorney-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to settle all obligations due to Buyer from Seller, or in the case of a violation by Seller of this Agreement or the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 15 hereof by Seller, 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 Future Receipts; (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 Seller’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, or assignment directing customers or account debtors to direct payables to Buyer; (v) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceeding which Buyer may deem necessary for the collection of any of the remaining Purchased Amount of the Future Receipts, or otherwise to enforce its rights with respect to delivery of the Purchased Amount; and/or

(vi) to contact any Processor of Seller and to direct such Processor(s) to deliver directly to Buyer all or any portion of the amounts received by such Processor(s) and to provide any information regarding Seller requested by Buyer. Each Processor may rely on the previous sentence as written authorization of Seller to provide any information requested by Buyer. Each Processor is hereby irrevocably authorized and directed by Seller to follow any instruction of Buyer without inquiry as to Buyer’s right or authority to give such instructions. Seller acknowledges the terms of the preceding sentence and agrees not to (a) interfere with Buyer’s instructions or a Processor’s compliance with this Agreement or (b) request any modification thereto without Buyer’s prior written consent.

​

6. Fees and Charges: Other than the Origination Fee, if any, set forth above, Buyer is NOT CHARGING ANY ORIGINATION OR BROKER FEES to Seller. If Seller is charged another such fee, it is not being charged by Buyer. A list of all fees and charges applicable under this Agreement is contained in Appendix A.

​

8. Authorization to Contact Current and Prior Banks: Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to contact any current or prior bank of the Seller in order to obtain whatever information it may require regarding Seller’s transactions with any such bank. Such information may include but is not limited to, information necessary to verify the amount of Future Receipts previously processed on behalf of Seller and any fees that may have been charged by the bank. In addition, Seller authorizes Buyer to contact any current or prior bank of the Seller for collections and in order to confirm that Seller is exclusively using the Account identified above, or any other account approved by Buyer, for the deposit of all business receipts.

​

to Buyer any authorizations, bank or financial statements, tax returns, etc., as Buyer deems necessary in its sole discretion prior to or at any time after execution of this Agreement. A photocopy of this authorization will be deemed acceptable as an authorization for release of financial and credit information. Buyer is authorized to update such information and financial and credit profiles from time to time as it deems appropriate. Seller waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim for damages against Buyer or any of its affiliates relating to any investigation undertaken by or on behalf of Buyer as permitted by this Agreement or disclosure of information as permitted by this Agreement.

​

Each Additional Seller desires to enter into the Purchase Agreement and to agree to all the terms of the Purchase Agreement, so that they will all fully apply to such Additional Seller to the same extent as if the Additional Seller had executed the Purchase Agreement itself. Therefore, each of the Parties agree as follows:

1.Each Additional Seller is fully bound by all the terms, conditions, representations, warranties and covenants of the Agreement. The Purchase Agreement is fully incorporated into this Addendum by reference and binds and inures to the benefit of each of the Parties hereto, and all their heirs, successors and assigns, the same as if such Additional Seller had signed the Purchase Agreement. All references to "Seller" in the Purchase Agreement mean individually, collectively and interchangeably the Original Seller and each Additional Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the Initial Weekly Amount established in the Purchase Agreement is based on the average monthly sales of the Original Seller only. By signing this Addendum and adding the Additional Sellers to the Purchase Agreement, the Parties do not intend to re-calculate the Weekly Amount by including the average monthly sales of the Additional Sellers. The Parties therefore agree that the Weekly Amount shall remain the same following the execution of this Addendum, subject to the Parties' right request changes to the Weekly Amount as set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

​

2.Each Additional Seller agrees to and enters into the Purchase Agreement as a Seller and hereby joins in the sale of its Future Receipts and agrees to deliver the Amount Sold to Buyer on the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Any default by a Seller under the Purchase Agreement shall constitute a default of every Seller under the Purchase Agreement. Each Seller hereby guarantees the prompt performance of the obligations of the other Sellers under the Purchase Agreement. Buyer may file suit against, or otherwise seek to collect receipt of the Amount Sold from any Seller without the necessity of Buyer first seeking to collect payment from the any other Seller or other party that may be liable for the obligations created by the Purchase Agreement.

​

3.The Original Seller has received the Purchase Price on behalf of itself and the Additional Sellers. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Sellers in such amount a. they may agree upon, but each shall have an undivided interest in the entire Purchase Price. Each Additional Seller is an affiliate that controls, is controlled by, or under common control with, the Original Seller. The Additional Sellers agree that joining in the sale of the Amount Sold by signing this Addendum is in the mutually beneficial interest of all Sellers.

​

4.The Parties acknowledge that each Additional Seller may maintain separate bank accounts and each Additional Seller will take such actions as are necessary or appropriate to enable Buyer to debit such Additional Seller's Approved Account. Each Seller agrees that Buyer may debit any or all Approved Accounts in such amounts as Buyer determines in its discretion until Buyer receives the Weekly Amount. Buyer shall not be required to debit each Approved Account in any specific amount or order to obtain the Weekly Amount and may, for example, debit it the Approved Account of any single Seller in an amount equal to the entire Weekly Amount.

​

​

​

​

​

​

5.Any notice to an Additional Seller in connection with the Purchase Agreement or this Addendum may be given to such the Original Seller on behalf of such Additional Seller in the manner set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

​
