AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE
THIS AMENDMENT NUMBER ONE dated this 17th day of December, 2010 is to that certain Inventory Financing Agreement entered into by and between GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation (“CDF”) and the undersigned Dealers (each, individually, a “Dealer” and, collectively, “Dealers”) dated June 24, 2010 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Financing Agreement”).
WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to amend the Financing Agreement in certain respects;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Section 1(b) of the Financing Agreement is hereby deleted and is replaced with the following:
“(b) Floor Plan Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, CDF agrees to thereafter make available to Dealers extensions of credit on a revolving basis in such amounts as Dealers may from time to time request up to an aggregate total of one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000.00) (as such amount may be increased by CDF pursuant to Section 1 (f), the “Maximum Credit Amount”), minus (i) the outstanding amount of Approvals (as defined below), and (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of any other Obligations of Dealers to CDF and any CDF Affiliates, plus (iii) an amount (the “Reserve Adjustment”) equal to the lesser of (X) the balance of the Cash Collateral Reserve (as defined in that certain [****], dated the date hereof, between CDF and Dealers (the [****])), and (Y) twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000.00), to purchase inventory, which will be subject to a purchase money security interest in favor of CDF, from Dealers’ existing vendors identified on Exhibit A to this Agreement and any additional vendors acceptable to CDF in its sole discretion (such existing vendors and additional vendors, in each case until any such vendor shall be disapproved by written notice from CDF due to (x) such vendor’s failure to comply with any law, rule, regulation, order or decree; (y) such vendor’s failure to comply with any internal policies and procedures of CDF or any CDF Affiliate (as defined below) relating to import or export controls, anti-money laundering, anti-terrorism, securities law, banking law or regulation, fraud statutes and other similar laws and regulations and codes of ethical conduct (collectively, “Internal Policies”); or (z) any circumstance which may make CDF’s disbursement of any advance to such vendor illegal or otherwise in violation of any law, rule, regulation, order or decree applicable to CDF or any Internal Policies, each, a “Vendor” and, collectively, “Vendors”) and for other purposes (including the Pre- Owned Inventory Sublimit described below); provided, however, that (1) repayments from time to time of the outstanding balance of the indebtedness

 

 


 

hereunder shall be available to be reborrowed pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (2) if the Obligations hereunder outstanding at any time or from time to time exceed the sum of the Maximum Credit Amount and the Reserve Adjustment, Dealers shall immediately (but in any event within two (2) Business Days) repay the Obligations in such amount necessary to eliminate such excess; provided that, in its reasonable discretion, CDF may immediately cease to make loans and/or to issue Approvals until such repayment occurs, and (3) notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, (I) CDF may, in its reasonable discretion, immediately cease to make loans and/or to issue Approvals (x) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any event which, with the giving of notice, the passage of time, or both would result in a Default, or (y) if any remittance for any Obligations is dishonored when first presented for payment, until such payment is honored; and (II) upon termination of this Agreement, Dealers shall repay to CDF all Obligations hereunder, plus interest accrued to the date of payment. If a Vendor is disapproved for any reason set forth above, such disapproval will only affect Dealers’ ability to request, and CDF’s obligation to fund, subsequent advances and will not require immediate repayment of previous advances with respect to inventory purchased from such disapproved Vendor.”
2. Section 1(c) of the Financing Agreement is hereby deleted and is replaced with the following:
“(c) Pre-Owned Inventory Advances and Sublimits. Subject to the overall Maximum Credit Amount (as increased by the Reserve Adjustment) set forth above and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on and after the Closing Date, CDF agrees to make cash advances to Dealers with respect to pre-owned units of inventory; provided that such cash advances shall not exceed the Pre-Owned Inventory Sublimit and must comply with the pre-owned inventory advance terms set forth herein. Regardless of the amount of credit available to Dealers under the Maximum Credit Amount (as increased by the Reserve Adjustment) hereunder, CDF shall not provide extensions of credit to Dealers in excess of twenty million dollars ($20,000,000.00) with respect to used or pre-owned inventory (the “Pre-Owned Inventory Sublimit”). Within such Pre-Owned Inventory Sublimit, (A) any advances with respect to units with applicable valuations of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) or more shall require unit specific documentation (including an advance request form), (B) CDF will not advance Dealers more than fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000.00) of such Pre-Owned Inventory Sublimit for used or pre-owned inventory with applicable valuations of less than five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) (the “Other Pre-Owned Sublimit”), and (C) CDF will not advance Dealers more than ten million dollars ($10,000,000.00) of such Pre-Owned Inventory Sublimit for used or pre-owned inventory with applicable valuations of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) or more (the “Specific Pre-Owned Sublimit”).”

“(e) Re-Advances. Subject to the overall Maximum Credit Amount (as increased by the Reserve Adjustment) set forth above and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on and after the Closing Date, CDF agrees to make cash advances to Dealers with respect to units of inventory (excluding used or pre-owned inventory) financed by CDF pursuant to Section 1(a) or 1(b) of this Agreement for which Dealers may have previously made payments to CDF; provided that such units of inventory have not previously been repaid in full, and further provided such cash advances shall not exceed (a) 100% of the original invoice amount with respect to such units, less (b) any curtailment amounts that have been required to be made by cash payment, offset, application of a Curtailment Offset under and as defined in the [****], or otherwise with respect to such units or, if such units were financed by CDF in connection with the Initial Advances, any curtailment amounts that would have been required to be made by cash payment, offset, application of a Curtailment Offset under and as defined in the [****], or otherwise with respect to such units if CDF had financed 100% of the original invoice amount with respect to such units on or about the applicable invoice date; provided, further, that such cash advances, in the aggregate, shall not exceed the Re-Advance Sublimit specified in the Program Terms Letter or, if not specified in such Program Terms Letter, twenty-five percent (25%) of the Maximum Credit Amount within any thirty (30) day period.”
4. Each reference in the Financing Agreement, the [****], the Program Terms Letter, and any other document, instrument or agreement related thereto or executed in connection therewith (collectively, the “Documents”) to the Financing Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the Financing Agreement as amended by this Amendment Number One.
