The following three paragraphs shall apply at such time (if any) as DLL has elected to provide Floorplan Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 of this Agreement.

 

In addition to the interest and fees payable by Borrower as set forth above, to the extent that the aggregate amount of all Floorplan Loans funded by DLL under this Agreement (such amount as to any applicable period, the “Floorplan Volume Usage”) during the period of December 1st of any given calendar year through November 30th of the following calendar year (each such period, a “Floorplan Annual Volume Period”) does not equal or exceed the “Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment” specified in writing to the Borrower by DLL (the “Minimum Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment”), Borrower shall pay DLL a fee (the “Floorplan Commitment Fee”) for such Floorplan Annual Volume Period equal to (i) the difference of the Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment minus the Floorplan Volume Usage for such Floorplan Annual Volume Period multiplied by (ii) one percent (1.00%).  Any such annual Floorplan Commitment Fee which may be owing with respect to any Floorplan Annual Volume Period shall be due and payable, and fully earned and non-refundable, on December 1st of each year, and without limiting the generality of Section 9.11 of this Agreement, the coming due of any such Floorplan Commitment Fee, at the sole option of DLL, may be deemed to be an automatic request by Borrower for a Revolving Credit Loan in an amount equal to such Floorplan Commitment Fee, and DLL, in its sole option, may make such Revolving Credit Loan and use the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan to satisfy such payment due regardless of whether the conditions otherwise required by the making of a Revolving Credit Loan under Section 4.2 have been satisfied and regardless of whether the total outstanding balance of all Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Loan) would exceed any dollar or percentage limitation otherwise applicable to Revolving Credit Loans, including the Revolving Credit Borrowing Base Amount, the Revolving Credit Limit or the amount of the Total Facility (or cause the Combined Outstandings to exceed the Combined Facility).  Concurrently with the monthly account statement provided by DLL pursuant to Section 2.10(g) of this Agreement for the period including any such December 1st on which any such Floorplan Commitment Fee may be due and payable, DLL shall provide Borrower with a reasonably detailed statement showing the calculation of such Floorplan Commitment Fee.  Such calculation shall be deemed correct, accurate and binding on Borrower and DLL and an account stated unless Borrower notifies DLL in writing to the contrary within fifteen (15) days after such calculation is provided by DLL to Borrower, describing the nature of any alleged errors or omissions.  Upon any such written notification of a dispute by Borrower regarding any such Floorplan Comment Fee, Borrower and DLL shall seek in good faith to resolve any differences provided in the notice of disagreement, and if such resolution shall be in favor of Borrower, DLL shall make an appropriate adjustment (including, if applicable, a reversal of the applicable portion of any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to Section 9.11 in satisfaction of the Floorplan Comment Fee as originally computed by DLL and any interest that may have accrued on such reversed portion of such Revolving Credit Loan).

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided for in the forgoing, if this Agreement is terminated during any Floorplan Annual Volume Period (whether voluntarily at the request of Borrower or otherwise for any reason), and the Floorplan Volume Usage determined for the period from the first day of such Floorplan Annual Volume Period through the date of such termination (the “Proration Period”) is less than the Minimum Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment pro-rated for the number of days in such Proration Period (the Minimum Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment as so pro-rated being equal to (x) the Minimum Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment multiplied by (y) a fraction where the numerator is equal to the number of days in such Proration Period and the denominator is 365), then Borrower shall pay to DLL a pro-rated Floorplan Commitment Fee equal to (a) the Minimum Floorplan Annual Volume Commitment as so pro-rated for such Proration Period minus the Floorplan Volume Usage for such Proration Period multiplied by (b) one percent (1.00%), which such pro-rated Floorplan Commitment Fee shall be shall be due and payable (and fully-earned and non-refundable) on the date of such termination (provided that, if this Agreement shall terminate on or before December 10th of any calendar year, no such pro-rated Floorplan Commitment Fee shall be payable for the period from December 1st of such year through the date of such termination).

 

The Floorplan Volume Usage for any applicable Floorplan Annual Volume Period or Proration Period shall be conclusively determined based on the amount of the invoices generated by the applicable Vendors and issued to Borrower for the Floorplanned Inventory purchased pursuant to such Floorplan Loans during such period.
