Dealer will, by the tenth (10^th) day of every month, furnish CDF with (a) a schedule of Accounts ("Schedule") which will: (i) describe all Accounts created or acquired by Dealer since the last Schedule furnished CDF; (ii) inform CDF of any rejection of goods by any obligor, delays in delivery of goods, non-performance of contracts and of any assertion of any claim, offset or counterclaim by any obligor, in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00); and (iii) include Dealer's internal risk rating for each obligor and (b) an Inventory Report. Furthermore, together with each submission of a Schedule, and, in any event, not less than monthly or as otherwise agreed to, Dealer will also furnish CDF with detailed aging reports for its accounts receivable and accounts payable as well as detailed journals to support the Accounts described on such Schedule.

Dealer will furnish CDF with a Borrowing Base Certificate (a) no less than every second Tuesday, provided that such Borrowing Base Certificate shall be delivered every Tuesday if (i) a Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 6 of the Agreement or (ii) Excess Availability for three (3) consecutive business days is less than the greater of (A) 12.5% of the Gross Borrowing Base or (B) Seventeen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($17,500,000.00) or (b) as otherwise agreed to by CDF and Dealer.”

“3.2 Available Credit; Paydown. On receipt of each Schedule, CDF will credit Dealer with such amount as CDF may deem advisable up to the remainder of: (A) eighty-five percent (85%) of: (i) the net amount of all eligible Accounts, (ii) Eligible Cisco VIP Rebates, and (iii) lntercompany Lease Receivables (as defined below) listed in such Schedule up to a maximum of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000.00) (the “Eligible Credit”), (B) minus the amount of Dealer’s SPP Deficit (as defined below) under Dealer’s Agreement for Wholesale Financing (the “AWF”) with CDF as in effect from time to time, but in no event will CDF credit Dealer with more than Dealer’s maximum Accounts Receivable Facility from time to time established by CDF, (C) minus such reserves established by CDF from time to time based upon dilution and other factors deemed appropriate by CDF (the “Available Credit”).

“3.7 Collections. Unless otherwise directed by CDF, to expedite collection of Accounts for the benefit of CDF, Dealer shall notify all of its obligors to make payment of the Accounts to one or more lock-boxes. The lock-box(es), and all accounts into which the proceeds of any such lock- box(es) are deposited, shall be established and maintained at banks selected by the Dealer and satisfactory to CDF in its sole discretion. Dealer shall issue to any such banks an irrevocable letter of instruction, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to CDF, directing such banks to deposit all payments or other remittances received in the lock-box to such account or accounts as CDF shall direct. At all times after either (i) a Default by Dealer, or (ii) the Excess Availability for three (3) consecutive business days is less than the greater of (a) Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000.00) or (b) 10% of Dealer’s Gross Borrowing Base, CDF may provide notice to such banks that thereafter all funds deposited in the lock-box or any such account immediately shall become the property of CDF, and any disbursements of the proceeds in the lock-box or any such account will only be made to CDF. Dealer shall obtain the agreement of such banks to waive any offset rights against the funds so deposited and otherwise establish CDF’s control thereof as secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. CDF assumes no responsibility for such lock-box arrangement, including, without limitation, any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits which any banks except thereunder. All remittances which Dealer receives in payment of any Accounts, and the proceeds of any of the other Collateral, shall be immediately deposited in such accounts designated by CDF.  All proceeds received or collected by CDF with respect to Accounts, and reserves and other property of Dealer in possession of CDF at any time or times hereafter, may be held by CDF without Interest to Dealer until all Obligations are paid in full or applied by CDF on account of the Obligations.  CDF may release to Dealer such portions of such reserves and proceeds as CDF may determine. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, CDF may notify the obligors that the Accounts have been assigned to CDF, collect the Accounts directly in its own name and charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to Dealer.  CDF has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Accounts to preserve rights in them.”

“3.13 Unused Line Fee. Dealer shall pay to CDF a recurring “Unused Line Fee,” calculated, on an annualized rate basis, by multiplying the Daily Unused Total Facility (as defined below) for any calendar quarter of the Aggregate Facility Limit, by the “Unused Fee” (as defined in the table below). The aggregate Unused Line Fee for each calendar quarter shall be payable quarterly in arrears and due pursuant to the quarterly billing statement.  Once received by CDF, an Unused Line Fee shall not be refundable by CDF for any reason.

The “Daily Unused Total Facility” for each day shall be the difference between (i) the Accounts Receivable Facility Limit as of the end of each day and (ii) Aggregate Accounts Receivable Outstandings as of the end of each day of such calendar quarter divided by the number of days in such calendar quarter.

The “Floorplan Utilization” for each calendar quarter shall be a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the Aggregate Floorplan Outstandings (as defined in the Agreement for Wholesale Financing) each day of such calendar quarter divided by the number of days in such calendar quarter, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the Aggregate Facility Limit for each day of such calendar quarter divided by the number of days in such calendar quarter.

The “Unused Fee” shall be:
