10. Seller’s Right for Reconciliation. Seller and Buyer each acknowledges and agrees that:

b. Such reconciliation (the “Reconciliation”) of the Seller’s Remittance Amounts for one or more Reconciliation Month(s) shall be performed by Buyer within five (5) Workdays following its receipt of the Seller’s request for Reconciliation by either crediting or debiting the difference back to, or from, the Approved Bank Account so that the total amount debited by Buyer from the Approved Bank Account during the Reconciliation Month(s) at issue is equal to the Specific Percentage of the Future Receipts that Seller collected during the Reconciliation Month(s) at issue.

 

c. One or more Reconciliation procedures performed by Buyer may reduce or increase the effective Remittance Amount during the Reconciliation Month in comparison to the initial Remittance Amount first described in this Agreement, and, as the result of such reduction, the term of this Agreement during which Buyer will be debiting the Approved Bank Account may be shortened or extended indefinitely.

 

11. Request for Reconciliation Procedure.

 

a. It shall be Seller’s sole responsibility and the right hereunder to initiate Reconciliation of Seller’s actual Remittance Amounts during any Reconciliation Month by sending a request for Reconciliation to Buyer.

e. Nothing set forth in Sections 10 or 11 of this Agreement shall be deemed to: (i) provide Seller with the right to interfere with Buyer’s right and ability to debit the Approved Bank Account while the request for Reconciliation of Seller’s receipts is pending or until the Purchased Amount is collected by Buyer in full, or (ii) modify the Remittance Amount for any calendar month during the term of this Agreement other than during the Reconciliation Month(s) as the result of the Reconciliation.

 

 

12. Adjustment of the Remittance Amount. Seller and Buyer each acknowledge and agree that:

 

a. If at any time during the term of this Agreement Seller experiences a steady decrease in its Periodic Receipts, and so long as Seller is not in default under the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall have the right, at its sole and absolute discretion, but subject to the provisions of Section 13 below, to request modification (“Adjustment”) of the amount of the Remittance Amount that Seller is obligated to deliver to Buyer at the end of each Remittance Period to more closely reflect the Seller’s actual Periodic Receipts multiplied by the Specified Percentage (the “ Adjusted Remittance Amount”). Buyer shall provide such Adjustment within five (5) Workdays following its receipt of the Seller’s request for Adjustment. The Adjustment shall become effective as of the date it is performed and the Adjusted Remittance Amount shall replace and supersede the amount of the initial Remittance Amount first described above for thirty (30) days from and including the date it is granted. Upon the expiration of such 30-day period the amount of the Remittance Amount shall automatically revert back to the amount of the initial Remittance Amount, absent an additional request for Adjustment at the expiry of the 30-day period pursuant to this Section 12.

 

b. The parties acknowledge that any Adjustment that reduces the initial Remittance Amount may have the effect of extending the period of time needed for Seller to deliver the entire Purchased Amount to Buyer.

 

13. Request for Adjustment Procedure.

 

a. It shall be Seller’s sole responsibility and the right to initiate the Adjustment by sending a request for Adjustment to Buyer.

 

b. A request for Adjustment (an “Adjustment Request”) shall be in writing, and shall include copies of Seller’s last three (3) consecutive bank statements of the Approved Bank Account and credit card processing statements immediately preceding the date of Buyer’s receipt of the Adjustment Request. The Adjustment Request must be received by Buyer by email at ***@***, with the subject line “REQUEST FOR ADJUSTMENT” within thirty (30) days after the date that is the later of (i) the last day of the latest bank statement enclosed with the Adjustment Request and (ii) the last date of the latest credit card processing statement enclosed with the Adjustment Request.

 

c. Buyer’s receipt of a Seller’s Adjustment Request after the expiration of the above referenced thirty (30) day period nullifies and makes obsolete such Adjustment Request.

 

d. Seller shall have the right to request Adjustment of the initial Remittance Amount (or any Adjusted Remittance Amount, as the case may be) as many times during the term of this Agreement as it deems proper, and Buyer shall comply in good faith with such request, provided that:

 

i. Each such request for Adjustment is made in accordance with the terms of this Section 13; and

 

ii. No Adjustment shall be made after the Termination Date.

 

e. Nothing set forth in Sections 12 or 13 of this Agreement shall be deemed to provide Seller with the right to (i) interfere with Buyer’s right and ability to debit the Approved Bank Account while the request for Adjustment is pending or until the Purchased Amount is collected by Buyer in full or (ii) request Adjustment retroactively for the portion of the term of this Agreement preceding the date of an Adjustment Request.

 

14. Buyer’s Assumption of Risk.

 

a. Nonrecourse Sale of Future Receipts. 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. Seller acknowledges that it has no right to repurchase the Purchased Amount from Buyer. Buyer assumes the risk that Future Receipts may be remitted more slowly than Buyer may have anticipated or projected because Seller’s business has slowed down, and the risk that the full Purchased Amount may never be remitted because Seller’s business went bankrupt or Seller otherwise ceased operations in the ordinary course of business, to the extent not cause by Seller’s breach of 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 the 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 taxpayer privilege in any such litigation or arbitration in which Seller asserts that this transaction is anything other than a sale of future receipts.

 

b. Excused Performance. Buyer agrees to purchase the Purchased Future Receipts knowing the risks that Seller’s business may slow down or fail, and Buyer assumes this risk based exclusively upon the information provided to it by Seller and related to the business operations of Seller’s business prior to the date hereof, and upon Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement that are designed to give Buyer a reasonable and fair opportunity to receive the benefit of its bargain. Furthermore, Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall be excused from performing its obligations under this Agreement in the event Seller’s business ceases its operations exclusively due to the following reasons:

 

i. adverse business conditions or other circumstances that occurred for reasons outside Seller’s control;

 

ii. loss of the premises where the business operates (but not due to Seller’s breach of its obligations to its landlord), provided however that Seller does not continue and/or resume business operations at another location;

 

 

iii. bankruptcy of Seller; and/or

 

iv. natural disasters or similar occurrences beyond Seller’s control.

 

15. Fees and Charges to Buyer (“Closing Costs). Seller acknowledges that any Due Diligence fee, or UCC fees and described above as “Closing Costs” were agreed upon between Seller and Buyer prior to Seller entering into this Agreement, and were subject to arms-length negotiation between Buyer and Seller.

 

16. Origination Fee. Seller acknowledges that any Origination Fee disclosed above as a “Closing Cost” was agreed upon between Seller and a third-party broker for services related to this Seller’s transaction with Buyer. Buyer is not a party to any agreement between Seller and its broker. Seller hereby requests and authorizes Buyer to withhold the Origination Fee from the Purchase Price, and to remit the Origination Fee to such broker.

 

17. Prior Balance of Purchased Amounts. Seller represents and warrants that Rider 1, which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, contains true and correct information as to the name(s) of Seller’s creditors and the amounts that Seller owes each of those creditors as of the Effective Date (and these amounts being a portion of the Prior Balance of Purchased Amounts), and that as of the date hereof there are no creditors of Seller which may otherwise encumber the Purchased Future Receipts other than those listed in Rider 1. Seller indemnifies and holds harmless Buyer for any and all damages and losses (including without limitation legal fees and expenses) incurred by Buyer as the result of such representation being untrue, incorrect or incomplete.

 

18. No Reduction of Purchase Price. Seller agrees that deduction of the Closing Costs, the Prior Balance and the Origination Fee from the Purchase Price shall not be deemed to be a reduction of the Purchase Price.

y. No Reliance on Oral Representations. No course of performance or other conduct subsequently pursued or acquiesced in, and no oral agreement or representation subsequently made, by the Buyer Parties, whether or not relied or acted upon, and no usage of trade, whether or not relied or acted upon, shall amend this Agreement or impair or otherwise affect Seller’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement or any rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement.

 

z. No Additional Fees Charged. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (i) other than the Closing Costs first described above, if any, Buyer is NOT CHARGING ANY ADDITIONAL FEES OR CLOSING COSTS to Seller; and (ii) if Seller is charged with any fee and/or cost not described in the Closing Costs hereof, such fee is not charged by Buyer.

 

20. Acknowledgment of Security Interest and Security Agreement. The Future Receipts sold by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute and shall be construed and treated for all purposes as a true and complete sale, conveying good title to the Future Receipts free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from Seller to Buyer. To the extent the Future Receipts are “accounts” or “payment intangibles” as those terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the state in which the Seller is located (“UCC”) then: (i) the sale of the Future Receipts creates a security interest as defined in the UCC; (ii) this Agreement constitutes a “security agreement” under the UCC; and (iii) Buyer has all the rights of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such Future Receipts. Seller further agrees that, with or without an Event of Default, Buyer may notify account debtors, or other persons obligated on the Future Receipts, or holding the Future Receipts, of Seller’s sale of the Future Receipts and may instruct them to make payment or otherwise render performance to or for the benefit of Buyer.

 

21. Pledge. As security for the prompt and complete payment and performance of any and all liabilities, obligations, covenants or agreements of Seller under this Agreement (and any future amendments of this Agreement, if any) (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Obligations”), Seller hereby pledges, assigns and hypothecates to Buyer (collectively, “Pledge”) and grants to Buyer a continuing, perfected and first priority lien upon and security interest in, to and under all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the “Collateral”), whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired:

 

i. all accounts, including without limitation, all deposit accounts, accounts-receivable, and other receivables, chattel paper, documents, equipment, general intangibles, instruments, and inventory, as those terms are defined by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”), now or hereafter owned or acquired by Seller; and

 

ii. all Seller’s proceeds, as such term is defined by Article 9 of the UCC.

 

22. Termination of Pledge. Upon the payment and performance by Seller in full of the Obligations, the security interest in the Collateral pursuant to this Pledge shall automatically terminate without any further act of either party being required, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Seller. Upon any such termination, Buyer will execute, acknowledge (where applicable) and deliver such satisfactions, releases and termination statements, as Seller shall reasonably request.

 

23. Financing Statements. Seller authorizes Buyer to file one or more UCC-1 forms consistent with the UCC to give notice that the Purchased Amount of Future Receipts is the sole property of Buyer. The UCC filing may state that such sale is intended to be a sale and not an assignment for security and may state that the Seller is prohibited from obtaining any financing that impairs the value of the Future Receipts or Buyer’s right to collect same. Seller authorizes Buyer to debit the Account for all costs incurred by Buyer associated with the filing, amendment or termination of any UCC filings.

 

24. Further Assurances. At Buyer’s request, Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall execute and deliver all such further UCC-1s, continuation statements, assurances, assignments, and consents with respect to the sale of the Purchased Amount, and shall execute and deliver such further instruments, agreements and other documents and do such further acts and things, as Buyer may request in order to more fully effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

B. Each Guarantor is an owner, officer, or manager of Seller and will directly benefit from Buyer and Seller entering into the Agreement.

 

C. Buyer is not willing to enter into the Agreement unless Guarantor irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Buyer prompt and complete performance of all of the obligations of Seller under the Agreement (each such obligation, individually, an “Obligation” and all such obligations, collectively, the “Obligations”).

 

NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement for Buyer to enter into the Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor does hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

	b.	Seller’s obligation to not change its payment card processor, change the Approved Bank Account, or add bank accounts;
	c.	Seller’s obligation to not conduct Seller’s businesses under any name other than as disclosed to Buyer;
	d.	Seller’s obligation to not change any of its places of business without prior written consent by Buyer;
	e.	Seller’s obligation to not voluntarily sell, dispose, transfer or otherwise convey its business or substantially all business assets without (i) the express prior written consent of Buyer, and (ii) the written agreement of any purchaser or transferee assuming all of Seller’s obligations under this Agreement pursuant to documentation satisfactory to Buyer;
	f.	Seller’s obligation to not enter into any merchant cash advance or any loan agreement that relates to or encumbers its Future Receipts with any party other than Buyer for the duration of this Agreement without Buyer’s prior written consent;

h. the failure to give Guarantor any notice whatsoever;

i. any right, power or privilege that Buyer may now or hereafter have against any person, entity or collateral.
