  (b) Seventy percent (70.00%) of Eligible Accounts (the “Advance Formula”).

 

Crestmark in its sole discretion may raise or lower any percentage advance rate with respect to the Advance Formula.

 

Crestmark may, among other reserves, include a “Dilution Reserve” which is the Dilution Percentage less the Base Dilution. “Dilution Percentage” means: (i) all sales which have not been collected and have been removed from Borrower’s accounts receivable aging plus all sales that may not be collectable but not yet removed from the accounts receivable aging (as determined by Crestmark in its sole discretion) divided by (ii) total sales and (iii) stated as a percentage, as determined by Crestmark. “Base Dilution” means fifteen percent (15%). Crestmark shall reserve against the advance rate for Eligible Accounts by one percent (1.00%) for each percentage point or portion thereof that the Dilution Percentage exceeds Base Dilution.

 

Eligible Accounts means and includes those Accounts which:

 

  (i) have been validly assigned to Crestmark;
     
  (ii) strictly comply with all of Borrower’s promises, warranties and representations to Crestmark;

 

 

 

 

  (iii) contain payment terms of not greater than ninety (90) days from the date of invoice;
     
  (iv) are not more than ninety (90) days past the date of invoice, provided however, that the Accounts of Account Debtor, Best Buy Co., are eligible not more than one hundred twenty (120) days past the date of invoice; and
     
  (v) are invoiced not later than ten (10) days from the date of service or sale.

 

Eligible Accounts shall not include the following:

 

  (a) Accounts with respect to which the Account Debtor is an officer, employee or agent of Borrower;
     
  (b) Accounts with respect to which services or goods are placed on consignment, guaranteed sale, or other terms by reason of which the payment by the Account Debtor may be conditional;
     
  (c) Accounts with respect to which the Account Debtor is not a resident of the United States or Canada; provided, however, all Accounts originating from the Province of Quebec shall be deemed ineligible;
     
  (d) Accounts with respect to which the Account Debtor is the United States or any department, agency or instrumentality of the United States; provided, however, that an Account shall not be deemed ineligible by reason of this clause (d) if the Borrower has completed all of the steps necessary, in the sole opinion of Crestmark, to comply with the Federal Assignment of Claims Act of 1940 (31 U.S.C. Section 3727) with respect to such Account;
     
  (e) Accounts with respect to which the Account Debtor is any state of the United States or any city, town, municipality, county or division thereof;
     
  (f) Accounts with respect to which the Account Debtor is a subsidiary of, related to, affiliated with, or has common shareholders, officers or directors with Borrower;
     
  (g) Accounts with respect to which Borrower is or becomes liable to the Account Debtor for goods sold or services rendered by the Account Debtor to Borrower;
     
  (h) those Accounts where Crestmark has notified Borrower that, in Crestmark’s sole discretion, the Account or Account Debtor is not acceptable to Crestmark;
     
  (i) all of the Accounts owed by an Account Debtor who is the subject of a bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding;
     
  (j) all of the Accounts owed by an Account Debtor where twenty (20%) percent or more of all of the Accounts owed by that Account Debtor are more than ninety (90) days from the invoice date, or, in the case of Account Debtor, Best Buy Co, only, are more than one hundred twenty (120) days from the invoice date;
     
  (k) Accounts for which the services have not yet been rendered to the Account Debtor or the goods sold have not yet been delivered to the Account Debtor (commonly referred to as “pre-billed accounts”);
     
  (l) COD, credit card sales and cash sales;
     
  (m) Accounts that are disputed.

 

Crestmark will determine in its sole discretion whether any Collateral is eligible for an Advance, but no Collateral will be considered eligible unless the requirements set forth above are met. Regardless of whether any Collateral is eligible, it is still part of the Collateral securing the Obligations.

Prior to any request for an Advance, Borrower must furnish to Crestmark invoices, credit memos, purchase orders, evidence of delivery, proof of shipment, timesheets or any other documents Crestmark requests, in its sole discretion, with respect to the Accounts that Borrower is tendering to Crestmark to support the Advance (“Account Documents”). Crestmark will endeavor to provide the requested Advance by the end of the day on the date it receives the request as long as the complete package of information for the request has been received by Crestmark by 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the date of the request for the Advance. All requests for funding will be subject to Crestmark’s then standard fees for electronic funds transfer, wire transfers and check services.

 

Each time an Advance is made, the amount of the Obligations will be increased by the amount of the Advance. Three (3) business days (“Clearance Days”) after checks, ACH or wire transfers or other credit instruments are applied to a specific invoice, Crestmark will credit the Loan Account with the net amount actually received, whereupon interest and the Maintenance Fee will no longer be charged. On the date a collection is applied to a specific invoice, Borrower will receive immediate credit on such funds in determining availability for Advances.

 

When Crestmark receives a payment from an Account Debtor, it will attempt to apply it against the appropriate Account Debtor and invoice according to the Account Debtor’s remittance advice. If it is not clear which Account Debtor or invoice the payment is to be applied against, Crestmark may contact Borrower or the payor for assistance. Unless there is clear error, the application of payments by Crestmark is final.

 

4. FEES AND EXPENSES. The following fees will be paid by Borrower:

 

Loan Fee: Waived.

 

Late Reporting Fee: Borrower will pay Crestmark a Late Reporting Fee in an amount equal to One Hundred Fifty ($ 150.00) Dollars per document per business day for any day in which any report, financial statement or schedule required by the Agreement is delivered late.

Exit Fee. Borrower may elect to prepay the Obligations and/or terminate this Agreement during the first 2 years following the date of this Agreement, but only upon the payment of all Obligations including the following exit fee (“Exit Fee”), as liquidated damages and not as a penalty: prior to the two year anniversary date of the Agreement, the exit fee will be two (2.00%) percent of the Maximum Amount, together with all unpaid Loan Fees and Maintenance Fees due under the Agreement. No partial prepayment will affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue the regular payments due under the Note. In the event that a Default has occurred and is continuing at the time Crestmark demands payment of the Obligations, the Exit Fee will be due and payable by Borrower.

The Exit Fee shall automatically renew on each anniversary date beginning on the 2nd anniversary date of this Agreement for an additional twelve (12) month period unless (i) Borrower notifies Crestmark in writing within sixty (60) days before such anniversary date of Borrower’s intention to terminate the Agreement and (ii) the Obligations are paid in full by such anniversary date.
