DEFINITIONS:

 

The words “you” and “your” mean each and all persons who submitted the application for the account and who are bound by this Elite Credit Account Agreement. The word “the Bank” means North Fork Bank its successors and assigns. The word “Agreement” means this Elite Credit Account Agreement. The word “Loan Account” means the Elite Credit Loan Account established pursuant to the terms created by this Agreement.

 

EFFECT OF USING LOAN ACCOUNT:

 

When you use this account, you are agreeing to and will be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You agree that all loans will be used for business purposes only. You certify that all information you gave the Bank to obtain the Loan Account is true and correct. Each person who signed the application for this account will be individually and jointly responsible for all amounts due on the Loan Account.

 

METHOD OF USE AND LIMITATIONS:

 

The Bank will supply you with Elite Credit Account drafts. So long as no Event of Default, as defined herein has occurred and this Agreement has not been cancelled, you may obtain loans for yourself up to your credit limit by writing drafts on the Loan Account. Drafts must be deposited to your business demand deposit account indicated above. The Bank will supply you with twelve (12) drafts at no charge. You must pay for drafts in excess of twelve (12). You must pay a fee of $150.00 per year for each year or part of a year this Agreement is in effect.

 

MAXIMUM CREDIT:

 

Your credit limit is shown above and will be shown on each monthly statement which the Bank will send you. You are not permitted to exceed your credit limit. The Bank may change your credit limit up or down at any time by giving notice in writing to you. If you write a draft which would cause the unpaid principal balance in your Loan Account to exceed your credit limit, the Bank may either refuse to honor your draft or may honor your draft and make you a loan in excess of your credit limit. Any such loan together with interest must be repaid immediately upon demand of the Bank.

 

PROMISE TO PAY:

 

You promise to pay to the order of the Bank all amounts owed under this Agreement, plus interest, collection costs, (including without limitation attorney fees permitted under this agreement) and all other amounts due. Payment will be made as set forth in this Agreement.

 

PERIODIC STATEMENT:

 

Each month the Bank will send you a statement on your Elite Credit Account. This statement will list all transactions that you made in the Loan Account during the previous month. It will show what you have borrowed, what you have repaid, items credited and debited and what you owe (new balance). It will also show interest rate changes. This statement shall be deemed to be accurate unless you report any errors to the Bank within sixty (60) days of the statement date.

 

METHOD OF PAYMENT:

 

The “minimum monthly payment” (as defined herein) will be debited from your demand deposit account with the Bank when due. You agree to have sufficient funds in your demand deposit account to permit such debits without creating an overdraft. Your “minimum monthly payment” is equal to the sum of (a) 1/36TH of the unpaid principal balance as of the end of the statement period or $200, whichever is greater, plus (b) any amount loaned over your credit limit, plus (c) all interest due as computed below, plus (d) all late charges, plus (e) any unpaid prior minimum payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may pay the entire amount owed (plus interest to the date of payment) in full at any time.

 

PAYMENT - TIME AND APPLICATION:

 

There must be sufficient funds in your business demand deposit account so that the minimum payment may be debited by the Bank on the 30th day of each month. This is the “payment due date”. Each month’s payment will be applied in the following order: (1) Interest; (2) Principal; (3) Late charges and other fees. You may make pre-payments at any time in whole or in part. Prepayments will be applied first to principal, next to interest, and the remainder to late charges.

 

LATE CHARGES:

 

If there are insufficient funds in your demand deposit account to make the required minimum monthly payment when due, you will pay a late fee of 4% of the payment due plus the applicable overdraft charge.

 

INTEREST RATE:

 

Interest is payable at a rate equal to 0.50% above the Bank’s Prime Rate, adjusted as and when such Prime Rate changes. The Bank’s Prime Rate is not necessarily the lowest rate charged to its customers and nothing herein shall prevent the Bank from lending at less than its Prime Rate. Interest shall be calculated on a daily basis on the average daily balance of your Loan Account and shall be based upon the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, the interest rate payable hereunder shall be increased by 5% over the then applicable interest rate. If a law which applies to this Loan Account and which sets maximum loan charges is finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges collected or to be collected in connection with your Loan Account exceed the permitted limits, then (i) any such loan charges shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the charges to the permitted limit; and (ii) any sums already collected which exceeded permitted limits will be refunded. You may choose to take this refund by accepting a reduction in the principal owed under this Agreement or by taking a direct payment. If a refund reduces principal, the reduction will be treated as a partial payment.

CHANGES IN INTEREST RATE:

 

The interest rate set forth above is based upon the Bank’s review of your financial condition (and that of any guarantors) and the deposit relationship with the Bank. The Bank may hereafter change your interest rate on thirty days written notice to you. Any change will be effective immediately and will apply to all amounts then outstanding and any amounts incurred thereafter.

 

ENTIRE BALANCE DUE/DEFAULT:

 

You will be in default, and the Bank need not permit any further draws against your Loan Account and may require that you pay everything that you owe to it if one or more of the following occur (each such event being referred to as an “Event of Default”): (1) you fail to make any payment required hereunder when due or fail to have sufficient funds in your business demand deposit account to permit automatic debit of any amount due; (2) you or any guarantor fail to make any other payment to the Bank when due; (3) you or any guarantor default under any instrument or agreement, whether direct or contingent, for the payment of money; (4) you fail to comply with any other term, covenant, or condition contained in this Agreement; (5) any representation or warranty made in this Agreement or any instrument, document, or certificate, furnished by you or any guarantor in connection with this Agreement is false or misleading; (6) a petition in bankruptcy is filed by or against you or any guarantor; (7) an action or proceeding is commenced by or against you or any guarantor seeking dissolution, liquidation, composition, or arrangement or the appointment of a receiver; (8) you or any guarantor admit in writing an inability to pay debts as they mature, make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, fail to maintain a satisfactory financial condition in a manner in which the Bank reasonably believes is necessary to repay the Loan Account; (9) a judgment or other judicial or administrative determination requiring the payment of money is entered against you or any guarantor; (10) the guaranty of any guarantor terminates or is unenforceable for any reason such as a guarantor dies; (11) your business is abandoned or suspended; (12) the ownership or management of your business changes; (13) your assets or those of any guarantor are pledged or become liened or impaired such that the Bank believes your ability or that of any guarantor to repay the Loan Account is impaired; (14) any principal of your business or any guarantor retires, becomes disabled, or dies; (15) you or any guarantor fail to furnish any financial information or financial statements to the Bank or fail to permit an inspection of books, records or property by the Bank or its agents; (16) you grant or cause to exist a security interest in any of your assets, except that of the Bank; (17) you fail to use the Bank as your primary Bank for deposits and loans; (18) you fail to pay any tax assessment when due or (19) the Bank determines in good faith that it will not be repaid hereunder according to the terms of this Agreement.
