PRIMARY TERMS

THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDES A JURY TRIAL AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

In this Agreement, you are selling to us a specified amount of future payments your customers make for your goods and services, as further defined below (“Future Receipts”). We agree to buy from you (and you agree to sell to us) the amount of Future Receipts shown below (the “Amount Sold”) in exchange for the “Purchase Price” shown below. In order to deliver to us the Amount Sold, you assign to us the share of your Future Receipts (“Specified Percentage”) shown below, every week from the date we deliver the Purchase Price until we have received the entire Amount Sold and all fees or other amounts due under this Agreement (the “Completion Amount”).

We are buying Future Receipts from you, not loaning you money. You are not required to pay interest on the Purchase Price and this Agreement has no term or required payment amounts that are not subject to change based on your future revenue. Instead, your obligation is to deliver to us the Specified Percentage of your Future Receipts as they are generated in the ordinary course of your business. This means that your obligation to us aligns with your cash flow. When your Future Receipts decline because business is slow, you will be able to deliver Future Receipts to us more slowly.

By purchasing Future Receipts from you, we assume risks such as not obtaining the Future Receipts we bought as quickly as we anticipated, or not receiving all of them if you go out of business. However, you are not allowed to engage in “bad acts” that unfairly prevent us from receiving what we paid for. For example, unless you cease operations, you are not allowed to change the bank account in which we collect our Weekly Delivery Amounts (see below) without our approval, block our ability to collect our Weekly Delivery Amounts, sell your Future Receipts to another funding company (stacking) or close your business and start up another similar business right away. Additionally, you are representing that the information that you provided us is accurate in all material respects and that you have not omitted providing us with information that is material to your business. The details on this are below.

`I.`SALE OF FUTURE RECEIPTS; PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE:

`1.`Sale of Future Receipts; Not a Loan. In exchange for the Purchase Price, Merchant hereby sells, assigns, transfers and conveys (hereinafter, the “Sale”) to Purchaser all of Merchant’s right, title and interest in and to the Specified Percentage of its Future Receipts until the Completion Amount is delivered to Purchaser. This Sale is made without recourse against Merchant and Guarantor except as specifically set forth in this Agreement. By virtue of this Agreement, Merchant transfers to Purchaser full and complete ownership of the Amount Sold and Merchant retains no legal or equitable interest therein. Merchant and Purchaser agree that the Purchase Price is payment for the assignment and sale of the Amount Sold and that this transaction is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed as, a loan from Purchaser to Merchant. Furthermore, Purchaser’s ability to collect the Amount Sold is contingent on the continued operation of Merchant’s business, and the timing of deliveries of the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts will depend on how quickly Merchant’s business generates Future Receipts. Merchant and Guarantor expressly agree not to take the position that this transaction is a loan, and they expressly waive any and all claims and defenses based on that position in any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement, including without limitation claims or defenses of usury.

`2.`Purchaser’s Acceptance through Payment of Purchase Price.

`a.`Should Purchaser wish to accept this Agreement after the satisfactory completion of Purchaser’s due diligence (in its discretion), Purchaser may accept the Agreement without signing it by sending Merchant the Purchase Price minus the Origination Fee, subject to Section 2(b) below.

`b.`If Merchant previously sold Future Receipts to Purchaser but has not yet remitted the full Completion Amount pursuant to the prior transaction, Merchant hereby requests to repurchase the undelivered balance of the Amount Sold from that transaction and directs Purchaser to deduct the repurchase price from the Purchase Price and apply it to complete the prior transaction. Similarly, if Merchant previously obtained a loan from Purchaser and has a balance due on such loan, Merchant hereby instructs Purchaser to deduct the balance due on the prior loan from the Purchase Price and apply it to pay off the prior loan. In the event that the agreement for the prior sale of Future Receipts does not permit repurchase of any portion of the amount sold, such agreement is hereby amended to permit repurchase on the same terms as set forth in this Agreement.

`II.`DELIVERY OF AMOUNT SOLD:

`3.`Method of Delivery of Amount Sold. Purchaser offers three methods by which Merchant may deliver the Specified Percentage of its Future Receipts to Purchaser: each week ACH debits by Purchaser from Merchant’s bank account, weekly remittances from Merchant’s payment card processor, and a lockbox arrangement. Each of these methods is described below. The method to be used initially is specified on the first page of this Agreement. The method of delivery may be changed by written agreement between Purchaser and Merchant. a.

Direct Debit Method.

Under the Direct Debit Method, Merchant agrees to deposit all Future Receipts into one (and only one) bank account which shall be preapproved by Purchaser (the “Approved Bank Account”). Merchant shall execute an ACH Authorization allowing Purchaser to debit directly from the Approved Bank Account each week the Weekly Delivery Amount via ACH debit, as specified below. b.

Payment Card Split Method.

Under the Payment Card Split Method, Merchant shall exclusively use a single Approved Card Processor (defined below) to process all payments made by credit, debit, and other payment cards for Merchant’s goods and services. Merchant shall instruct such Approved Card Processor to remit each week to Purchaser the Specified Percentage of the Future Receipts for that week, and to remit the balance (less any fees charged by the Approved Card Processor) to Merchant. c.

Lockbox Method.

Under the Lockbox Method, Merchant agrees to deposit all Future Receipts into a special bank account established jointly by Purchaser and Merchant in accordance with a lockbox arrangement among Merchant, Purchaser and a banking institution chosen by Purchaser (the “Lockbox Account”), and Purchaser shall debit each week the Weekly Delivery Amount from the Lockbox Account.

`4.`Direct Debit Method and Lockbox Method Provisions. The following terms apply if either the Direct Debit Method or the Lockbox Method is used, unless otherwise specified herein.

`a.`Weekly Delivery Amount. Purchaser and Merchant agree that, for efficiency purposes, Merchant may deliver the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts each week by remitting the Weekly Delivery Amount, which Purchaser has calculated to be roughly equivalent to the Specified Percentage of Merchant’s historical revenue each week. Purchaser, Merchant, and Guarantor acknowledge that Merchant’s actual Future Receipts may vary each week or from Merchant’s historical revenue, but they agree that the Weekly Delivery Amount is a fair and reasonable estimate of the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts. The Weekly Delivery Amount may be adjusted as set forth in Section 11. Merchant also has the right to reconcile any difference between the Weekly Delivery Amounts received in a given four-week period and the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts actually generated during that four-week period, as set forth in Sections 10 and 11.

At any time during the term of this Agreement, Purchaser may change the method by which it will accept the Weekly Delivery by providing Merchant with written instructions of a new method of delivery of Weekly Delivery to Purchaser.

`5.`Timing of Weekly Deliveries. Merchant hereby authorizes Purchaser to debit the Weekly Delivery Amount from the Approved Bank Account or the Lockbox Account, as applicable, via ACH or electronic checks once each week on the same day of the week as the Commencement Date. If a debit is scheduled to occur on a bank holiday, the debit shall be made on the following Business Day. Debits of the Weekly Delivery Amount shall commence on a date selected by Purchaser which shall be no later than 15 days following the Commencement Date. Weekly deliveries shall continue until Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, unless Merchant files for bankruptcy and/or goes out of business in the ordinary course, without first committing a Bad Act (as defined below). In the event that the final weekly delivery results in Purchaser receiving more than Amount Sold (not including fees), Purchaser shall refund any amount in excess of the Amount Sold (not including fees) within 5 business days of the final weekly delivery.

`6.`Approved Bank Account. If the Direct Debit Method is used, and for the purpose of allowing Purchaser to debit any fees due under this Agreement if the Payment Card Split Method is used, Merchant designates the bank account below as the Approved Bank Account, subject to approval by Purchaser. Merchant agrees to designate a different bank account acceptable to Purchaser if Purchaser does not approve the account designated below. In the event the Approved Bank Account becomes unavailable or Purchaser requests that a different bank account be used for any reason (such as difficulties debiting the Weekly Delivery Amount from such bank account), Merchant shall arrange for another Approved Bank Account immediately, and in no event later than five calendar days after the prior account becomes unavailable or Purchaser requests the designation of a new Approved Bank Account. If any weekly delivery (or multiple weekly deliveries) required under the Direct Debit Method does not occur due to a change in the Approved Bank Account, Purchaser may debit the missed weekly deliveries together with the next weekly delivery.

`Account Number: [ REDACTED ]```Routing Number: [ REDACTED ]

`7.`Lockbox Account. If the Lockbox Method is used, Merchant hereby authorizes Purchaser to initiate a lockbox arrangement and to instruct Merchant’s Approved Card Processor and Merchant’s invoiced customers/clients/vendees to deposit all sums due to Merchant from each of those parties directly to the Lockbox Account. If required, Merchant shall enter into a lockbox agreement with Purchaser and the banking institution chosen by Purchaser, and complete any additional paperwork, for the purpose of establishing the Lockbox Account.

`8.`Third Party Appointment and Authorization. By signing below, Merchant acknowledges that Purchaser may, at any time, at Purchaser’s sole discretion, and without prior notice, appoint a third party, which may be an affiliate of Purchaser, including, without limitation, Kinetic Direct Funding, LLC (such third party being the “Servicing Agent”) to perform any or all of the actions authorized by the ACH Authorization and the Agreement. Merchant further agrees and acknowledges that Servicing Agent shall have all of the same rights, responsibilities, and authorizations granted to Purchaser by the ACH Authorization and the Agreement. For purposes of clarity, any Servicing Agent may perform any and all activities to service the Agreement, including the collection of Future Receipts (as set forth above) and fees, as if it was the Purchaser.

`9.`Fees Associated with Weekly Deliveries. It shall be Merchant’s exclusive responsibility to pay to its banking institution and/or Purchaser’s banking institution directly (or to compensate Purchaser if it is charged) all fees, charges and expenses incurred by either Merchant or Purchaser due to rejected electronic checks or ACH debit attempts, overdrafts or rejections by Merchant’s banking institution of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

`10.`Merchant’s Right to Reconciliation of Weekly Deliveries.

`a.`Merchant shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion but subject to the provisions of Section 11 below, to request retroactive reconciliation of any difference between the Weekly Delivery Amounts received by Purchaser through the four weekly deliveries immediately preceding the day when such request for reconciliation is received by Purchaser (each such four-week period, a “Reconciliation Month”) and the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts actually generated during that Reconciliation Month.

`b.`Purchaser will perform each timely requested reconciliation (each, a “Reconciliation”) within five (5) Business Days following its receipt of the Merchant’s request for reconciliation by either crediting or debiting the difference back to or from the Approved Bank Account or the Lockbox Account, as applicable, so that the total amount debited by Purchaser from the Approved Bank Account or the Lockbox Account (as applicable) during the Reconciliation Month at issue is equal to the Specified Percentage of the Future Receipts that Merchant actually collected during the Reconciliation Month at issue.

III.`` Request for Reconciliation Procedure.

`11.`Merchant’s Right for Reconciliation of Weekly Deliveries.

`a.`It shall be Merchant’s sole responsibility and right hereunder to initiate Reconciliation of Merchant’s actual Future Receipts during any Reconciliation Month by sending a request for reconciliation to Purchaser.

`b.`Any such request for Reconciliation of Merchant’s Weekly receipts for a specific Reconciliation Month shall be in writing, shall include a copy of Merchant’s bank statement(s) and credit card processing statement(s) for the Reconciliation Month at issue, and must be received by Purchaser via email at customer.service@libertasfunding.com within five (5) Business Days after the last day of the Reconciliation Month at issue (time being of the essence). Any request for Reconciliation received after this deadline will not be honored.

`c.`Merchant shall have the right to request Reconciliation as many times during the term of this Agreement as it deems proper, and Purchaser shall comply with such request, provided that:

`i.`Each such request is made in accordance with the terms of this Section 11.

`ii.`If a request for Reconciliation is timely made after Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, and the Reconciliation results in part of the Completion Amount being refunded to Merchant, then Purchaser shall continue to receive weekly deliveries until it receives the Completion Amount.

`iii.`If Purchaser becomes aware that it has received funds that it is not entitled to, then Purchaser shall return those funds to the Merchant without request by the Merchant for reconciliation as set forth above.

`d.`Unless Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, Purchaser is entitled to continue receiving weekly deliveries whether or not Merchant has made a request for Reconciliation. Merchant agrees not to take any action to interfere with weekly deliveries based on the pendency of a request for Reconciliation.

`12.`Adjustment of Weekly Delivery Amount.

`a.`If a Reconciliation is performed that results in a refund to the Merchant of at least 20% of the aggregate Weekly Delivery Amounts received by Purchaser during the applicable Reconciliation Month, Merchant shall have the option to request, subject to the requirements of Section 13 below, modification (“Adjustment”) of the Weekly Delivery Amount on a going-forward basis. Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion may allow a temporary Adjustment upon Merchant’s proof of circumstances warranting such Adjustment, such as a natural disaster requiring temporary closure of Merchant’s business. After an Adjustment is granted, the adjusted Weekly Delivery Amount shall replace and supersede the amount of the Weekly Delivery Amount set forth in the preamble of this Agreement and future weekly deliveries shall be made in the adjusted amount. All Adjustments made in accordance with this section or other sections of this Agreement, shall be effective for one-month, after which time, the Merchant must provide Purchaser with its bank statements each month to allow Purchaser to re-evaluate the Merchant’s information to determine whether a continued Adjustment is warranted.

`b.`The Adjustment of the Weekly Delivery Amount shall be performed by Purchaser within five (5) Business Days following its receipt of the Merchant’s request for Adjustment.

Page 4

`13.`Request for Adjustment Procedure.

`a.`It shall be Merchant’s sole responsibility and right to initiate the Adjustment by sending a request for Adjustment to Purchaser.

`b.`A request for Adjustment (an “Adjustment Request”) shall be in writing, shall include copies of: (i) Merchant’s three (3) consecutive bank statements for the Approved Bank Account or Lockbox Account, as applicable, immediately preceding the date of Purchaser’s receipt of the Adjustment Request; (ii) Merchant’s three (3) consecutive payment card processing statements immediately preceding the date of Purchaser’s receipt of the Adjustment Request; and/or (iii) Merchant’s bank statements and payment card processing statements previously provided by Merchant to Purchaser when applying to sell Future Receipts to Purchaser, or when applying for the most recent Adjustment that was made, if applicable. The Adjustment Request shall be sent by email to Purchaser at customer.service@libertasfunding.com within five (5) Business Days after the date that is the later of the last day for which activity is shown on the latest bank statement enclosed with the Adjustment Request and the last day for which activity is shown on the latest card processing statement enclosed with the Adjustment Request (time being of the essence). Any Adjustment Request received after this deadline will not be honored.

`c.`Merchant may request Adjustment of the Weekly Delivery Amount as many times as it deems proper, and Purchaser shall comply with such Adjustment Requests, provided that:

`i.`Each Adjustment Request is made in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Section 12;

`ii.`No Adjustment Request may be made after Purchaser has received the Completion Amount; and

`iii.`Unless Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, Purchaser is entitled to continue receiving weekly deliveries whether or not Merchant has made an Adjustment Request. Merchant agrees not to take any action to interfere with weekly deliveries based on the pendency of an Adjustment Request.

`IV.`Payment Card Split Method Provisions. The following terms (see Sections 14-16) apply if the Payment Cared Split Method is used, unless otherwise specified herein.

`14.`Approved Card Processor. Merchant agrees to enter into a payment card processing agreement with a payment card processor approved by Purchaser (the “Approved Card Processor”) in order to obtain card processing services for credit cards, charge cards, debit cards, prepaid cards, or other payment cards used to purchase Merchant’s goods and/or services. If Merchant has entered into a payment card processing agreement before the date of this Agreement, Merchant may request that Purchaser review such agreement and any other information it deems pertinent for approval of the existing payment card processor in the sole and absolute discretion of Purchaser. Merchant agrees to process all of its payment card transactions through the Approved Card Processor, and not to switch to a different payment card processor or use an additional payment card processor without Purchaser’s express written consent. If Purchaser permits Merchant to use a different payment card processor, the new processor shall become the Approved Card Processor. In the event the Approved Card Processor becomes unavailable or Purchaser requests that a different payment card processor be used for any reason (such as the Approved Card Processor failing to timely deliver the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts to Purchaser on a consistent basis), Merchant shall arrange for another Approved Card Processor immediately, and in no event later than five calendar days after the Approved Card Processor becomes unavailable or Purchaser requests the designation of a new Approved Card Processor.

`15.`Processing Arrangement. Merchant hereby authorizes and directs the Approved Card Processor, and any other processor, acquirer, service provider, or financial institution taking custody of, holding, possessing, or issuing payment instructions with respect to Future Receipts (together, the “Receipts Custodians”) to deliver the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts on each Business Day (the “Weekly Delivery Amount”) to Purchaser rather than Merchant until Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, or, in the event that Purchaser declares the entire Completion Amount to be deliverable based on a breach of this Agreement, to deliver this amount. On days when banks are not open, the Specified Percentage will be delivered to Purchaser on the next banking day. For example, the Specified Percentage for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will be delivered on the following Monday (or Tuesday if Monday is a bank holiday). Merchant acknowledges that the Approved Card Processor will be acting on behalf of Purchaser to collect the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts. Merchant agrees that the Future Receipts sold under this Agreement are Purchaser’s property. Purchaser shall have no obligation to refund or return the Amount Sold or any portion thereof to Merchant in the event that the Approved Card Processor or any other Receipts Custodian initiates a refund, credit, reversal, or chargeback of a transaction subject to this Agreement, as such adjustments typically are netted against future card volume. Merchant agrees that when a Receipts Custodian takes custody of, holds, possesses, or issues payment instructions with respect to Future Receipts, it does so in trust for Purchaser. If there has not been a default, a Receipts Custodian will not deliver any particular day’s Weekly Amount to us if that Weekly Amount has already been delivered to us by another Receipts Custodian. Merchant agrees that it does not have the right to revoke or otherwise seek to override the authorization and direction set forth in this section and that this authorization may only be revoked by Purchaser. You agree that a Receipts Custodian may rely on any instructions issued by us with respect to the delivery of the Future Receipts, including an instruction to deliver all Future Receipts to us in the event we declare the Completion Amount to be deliverable based on a breach of this Agreement. You waive and release any and all claims you may have against any Receipts Custodian that are in any way related to the Receipts Custodian delivering Future Receipts to us as described in this section. You authorize each Receipts Custodian to provide us with any and all information we request about the Receivables that Receipts Custodian possesses or has access to, including without limitation information about weekly volumes, number of transactions, distributions, chargebacks, offsets, withdrawals, and totals. YOU, YOUR SUCCESSORS AND PERMITTED ASSIGNEES AND AFFILIATES, AGREE TO FOREVER DEFEND, PROTECT, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS PURCHASER, EACH RECEIPTS CUSTODIAN, AND THEIR AND OUR SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, MEMBERS, AFFILIATES, AND REPRESENTATIVES AGAINST ALL DAMAGES, EXPENSES, CLAIMS, SUITS, DEMANDS, COSTS, ATTORNEYS’ FEES OR LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR ALLEGED TO HAVE ARISEN OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH DELIVERING FUTURE RECEIPTS TO US AS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION. IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR THE RECEIPTS CUSTODIANS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE OR PROFIT OR LOSS OF DATA OR FOR ANY DIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE

Page 5

POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. The Parties agree that any amounts due a Receipts Custodian under your agreement with such Receipts Custodian or otherwise take priority over amounts to be delivered to us under this Agreement. The Parties agree that each Receipts Custodian is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and may rely on this Agreement even though it is not a party to this Agreement. You grant to us an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, and appoint us and our designees as your attorney-in-fact, to take any and all actions necessary or appropriate to direct any new or additional processor to make payment to us as contemplated by this Section.

`a.`Processing Trial. After this Agreement has been executed by Purchaser and Merchant, Purchaser has the option in its sole and absolute discretion to conduct a processing trial (the “Processing Trial”) to determine whether the Specified Percentage will be correctly processed and/or reported by the Approved Card Processor to Purchaser. If Purchaser elects to conduct a Processing Trial, Merchant acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser will decide in its sole and absolute discretion whether to purchase the Amount Sold after completion of the Processing Trial. If Purchaser elects not to do so, any amounts received by Purchaser during the Processing Trial shall be refunded to the Merchant.

`V.`16. MERCHANT’S OBLIGATIONS, COVENANTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES Merchant agrees, covenants, represents, and warrants as follows at the time it executes this Agreement and on a continuing basis until such time as Purchaser has received the Completion Amount or Merchant has filed for bankruptcy or gone out of business in the ordinary course:

`a.`Business Purpose; Use of Purchase Price. MERCHANT REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT IS ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT SOLELY FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES AND NOT FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES. Merchant agrees to use the Purchase Price exclusively for the benefit and advancement of Merchant’s business operations and for no other purpose.

`b.`Financial Condition and Financial Information. Merchant represents and warrants that its bank and financial statements, copies of which have been furnished to Purchaser, and future statements which may be furnished hereafter pursuant to this Agreement or upon Purchaser’s request, fairly represent the financial condition of Merchant or other information set forth therein as of the dates such statements are issued, and prior to execution of the Agreement there have been no material adverse changes, financial or otherwise, in such condition, operation or ownership of Merchant. Merchant has a continuing, affirmative obligation to advise Purchaser of any material adverse change in its financial condition, operation, or ownership. Purchaser may request statements at any time during the term of this Agreement and Merchant shall provide them to Purchaser within Five (5) Business Days. Merchant’s failure to do so is a material breach of this Agreement.

`c.`Read Only Access to the Approved Bank Account and Approved Card Account. Merchant hereby agrees that, until Purchaser has received the Completion Amount, Purchaser shall have the right to perform ongoing read-only electronic monitoring of transactions occurring in the Approved Bank Account and Merchant’s account with the Approved Card Processor (the “Approved Card Account”). Merchant agrees to provide Purchaser all required online access codes for the Approved Bank Account and the Approved Card Account. If Purchaser’s electronic (online) access to Merchant’s Approved Bank Account or the Approved Card Account is disabled for any reason, Merchant shall immediately and diligently undertake all steps required of it to restore Purchaser’s access to both accounts. Merchant’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 16 shall constitute Merchant’s material breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

`d.`Governmental Approvals. Merchant represents and warrants that it is in compliance and, until Purchaser receives the Completion Amount, shall be in compliance with all laws and has valid permits, authorizations and licenses to own, operate and lease its properties and to conduct the business in which it is presently engaged.

`e.`Good Standing. Merchant represents and warrants that it is a corporation/limited liability company/limited partnership/other type of business entity that is in good standing and duly incorporated or otherwise organized and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has full power and authority necessary to carry its business as it is now being conducted.

`f.`Authorization. Merchant represents and warrants that it has all requisite power to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder; entering into this Agreement will not result in breach or violation of, or default under, any agreement or instrument by which Merchant is bound or any statute, rule, regulation, order, or other law to which Merchant is subject, nor require the obtaining of any consent, approval, permit or license from any governmental authority having jurisdiction over Merchant. All organizational and other proceedings required to be taken by Merchant to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been taken. The person signing this Agreement on behalf of Merchant represents and warrants that he or she has full power and authority to bind Merchant to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

`g.`Accounting Records and Tax Returns. Merchant shall treat receipt of the Purchase Price and delivery of the Specified Percentage of Future Receipts in a manner consistent with its nature as a true sale of Future Receipts in its accounting records and tax returns and further agrees that Purchaser is entitled to audit Merchant’s accounting records upon reasonable Notice in order to verify compliance. Merchant hereby waives any rights of privacy, confidentiality, or taxpayer privilege in any litigation or arbitration arising out of this Agreement in which Merchant asserts that this transaction is anything other than a sale of future receipts.

`h.`Taxes; Workers Compensation Insurance. Merchant will promptly pay, when due, all taxes, including, without limitation, income, employment, sales and use taxes, imposed upon Merchant’s business by law, and will maintain workers compensation insurance required by applicable governmental authorities.

You will not materially change the goods or services you sell, materially change the nature of your business, change the business entity through which you carry on your business, change any of the locations where you operate your business, or change the name under which you do business without first notifying us and obtaining our prior written consent.

Page 6

`k.`No Closing of Business. Merchant represents and warrants that it has no current plans to close its business either temporarily (for renovations, repairs or any other purpose), or permanently. Merchant agrees that, until Purchaser receives the Completion Amount, Merchant will not voluntarily close its business on a permanent or temporary basis for renovations, repairs, or any other purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Merchant shall have the right to close its business temporarily if such closing is necessitated by a requirement to conduct renovations or repairs imposed upon Merchant’s business by legal authorities having jurisdiction over Merchant’s business (such as from a health department or fire department) or if such closing is necessitated by circumstances outside Merchant’s reasonable control. Prior to any such temporary closure of its business, Merchant shall provide Purchaser ten (10) Business Days’ advance notice, or as much notice as reasonably possible under the circumstances.

`l.`No Pending Bankruptcy. As of the date of Merchant’s execution of this Agreement, Merchant is not insolvent, has not filed, and does not contemplate filing, any petition for bankruptcy protection under Title 11 of the United States Code, and there has been no involuntary bankruptcy petition brought or threatened against Merchant. Merchant represents that it has not consulted with a bankruptcy attorney on the issue of filing bankruptcy within the six-month period immediately preceding the date of this Agreement. A breach of any of these representations shall be a material breach of this Agreement. If you go out of business or become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy filing within forty-five (45) days of our purchasing the Amount Sold, you agree that there will be a rebuttable presumption of a material breach.

`m.`Estoppel Certificate. Each time that we request, you will, upon at least one (1) day’s prior notice from us, execute, acknowledge and deliver to us and/or to any other person, person firm or corporation specified by us, a statement certifying that this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that the same is in full force and effect as modified and stating the modifications) and stating the dates which all or any portion of the Amount Sold has been delivered.

`n.`Unencumbered Future Receipts. Merchant has and will continue to have good, complete and marketable title to all Future Receipts, free and clear of any and all liabilities, liens, claims, changes, restrictions, conditions, options, rights, mortgages, security interests, equities, pledges and encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever or any other rights or interests other than by virtue or entering into this Agreement. Merchant shall not sell Future Receipts or obtain any additional financing before Purchaser has received the Completion Amount without Purchaser’s express written consent. Merchant shall not take any action inconsistent with or in derogation of Purchaser’s ownership of the Amount Sold.

`o.`No Default Under Contracts with Third Parties.

`p.`Right of Access. In order to ensure Merchant’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Merchant hereby grants Purchaser the right to enter, without notice, the premises of Merchant’s business for the purpose of inspecting and checking Seller’s transaction processing terminals to ensure the terminals are properly programmed to submit and or batch Merchant’s Future Receipts to its Approved Card Processor and to ensure that Merchant has not violated any other provision of this Agreement. Furthermore, Merchant hereby grants Purchaser and its employees and consultants’ access to Merchant’s employees and records and all other items of property located at the Merchant’s place of business during the term of this Agreement.

`VI.`PLEDGE OF SECURITY:

`17.`Acknowledgment of Security Interest and Security Agreement. The Future Receipts sold by Merchant to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement are “accounts” or “payment intangibles” as those terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the state in which Merchant is located (the “UCC”). Such Sale 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 Merchant to Purchaser. To the extent the Future Receipts are “accounts” or “payment intangibles” 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) Purchaser has all the rights of a secured party under the UCC with respect to such Future Receipts. Merchant further agrees that, with or without an Event of Default, Purchaser may notify account debtors, or other persons obligated on the Future Receipts, on holding the Future Receipts of Merchant’s sale of the Future Receipts and may instruct them to make payment or otherwise render performance to or for the benefit of Purchaser.

`18.`Financing Statements. Merchant authorizes Purchaser to file one or more UCC-1 forms consistent with the UCC to give notice that the Amount Sold is the sole property of Purchaser. The UCC filing may state that such sale is intended to be a sale and not an assignment for security and may state that Merchant is prohibited from obtaining any financing that impairs the value of the Amount Sold or Purchaser’s ability to collect same. Merchant authorizes Purchaser to debit the Approved Bank Account or Lockbox Account, as applicable, for all costs incurred by Purchaser associated with the filing, amendment or termination of any UCC filings.

`19.`Security. You understand that we have the right to take delivery of the Future Receipts we purchased as they are generated in the ordinary course of your business. The Security Interest granted in this section is being given solely for the purpose of ensuring that you do not take any action to deprive us of that right. This Security Interest does not mean that we have made a loan to you, does not create a debt, and does not make you a debtor or us a creditor. As security for the prompt and complete performance of any and all obligations, covenants, and agreements of Merchant under this Agreement, now or hereafter arising from, out of, or relating to this Agreement, whether direct, indirect, contingent or otherwise (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Merchant Obligations”), Merchant hereby pledges, assigns and hypothecates to Purchaser and grants to Purchaser a continuing, perfected and first priority lien upon and security interest in, to and under all of Merchant’s right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the “Collateral”), whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired:

`a.`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 UCC, now or hereafter owned or acquired by Merchant; and

`b.`all Merchant’s proceeds, as that term is defined by Article 9 of the UCC.

`20.`Termination of Pledge. Upon the performance by Merchant in full of the Merchant 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 Merchant. Upon any such termination, Purchaser will execute, acknowledge (where applicable) and deliver such satisfactions, releases and termination statements, as Merchant shall reasonably request.

`21.`Representations with Respect to Collateral. Merchant hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser that: the execution, delivery and performance by Merchant of this Pledge, and the remedies in respect of the Collateral under this Pledge (i) have been duly authorized; (ii) do not require the approval of any governmental authority or other third party or require any action of, or filing with, any governmental authority or other third party to authorize same (other than the filing of the UCC-1s); (iii) do not and shall not (A) violate or result in the breach of any provision of law or regulation, any order or decree of any court or other governmental authority, or (B) violate, result in the breach of or constitute a default under or conflict with any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or any other instrument to which Merchant is a party or by which any of Merchant’s assets (including, without limitation, the Collateral) are bound.

`22.`Further Assurances. Upon the request of Purchaser, Merchant at its sole cost and expense, shall execute and deliver all such further UCC- 1s, continuation statements, assurances and assignments of the Collateral, and consents with respect to the pledge of the Collateral and the execution of this Pledge, and shall execute and deliver such further instruments, agreements and other documents and do such further acts and things, as Purchaser may request in order to more fully effectuate the purposes of this Pledge and the assignment of the Collateral and obtain the full benefits of this Pledge and the rights and powers herein created.

`23.`Attorney-in-fact. Merchant hereby authorizes Purchaser at any time to take any action and to execute any instrument, including without limitation to file one or more financing statements and/or continuation statements, to evidence and perfect the security interest created hereby and irrevocably appoints Purchaser as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney shall be coupled with an interest, with full authority in the place and stead of Merchant and in the name of Merchant or otherwise, from time to time, in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, including without limitation (a) for the purpose of executing such statements in the name of and on behalf of Merchant, and thereafter filing any such financing and/or continuation statements and (b) to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to Merchant.

`VII.`EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES:

`24.`Events of Default by Merchant. The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute an “Event of Default” by Merchant:

`a.`Events of Default.

`b.`Bad Acts. If you commit any of the following acts (“Bad Acts”) without our prior written consent before we receive the Completion Amount, you will be in default:

`i.`you sell, transfer or otherwise encumber or attempt to sell, transfer or otherwise encumber Future Receipts, whether or not such Future Receipts are part of the Amount Sold, sometimes referred to as “stacking” our Purchase Price with other funding companies;

`ii.`you encumber or allow any encumbrance to attach to our interest in the Amount Sold;

`iii.`you sell all or substantially all of your assets used in the operation of your business to a third party;

`iv.`you materially change the operation of your business (e.g., changes in industry, concept, size, etc.);

`v.`you stop accepting a particular method of payment while you remain open for business;

`vi.`you change your legal name or jurisdiction of formation, or carry-on business through a different business entity;

However, we will not consider any of these acts to be Bad Acts if they occur because you go out of business in the ordinary course.

They do not create any obligation for Merchant to deliver Future Receipts to Purchaser if they are simply not generated by Merchant’s business.

`c.`Other Breaches. If you commit an act that is not a Bad Act but that otherwise violates a term or covenant in this Agreement (an “Other Breach”), you will be in default.

If you commit an Other Breach, you will be liable to us for all damages resulting from the Other Breach, including, but not limited to, our reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs incurred in any proceeding pursued against you to recover the amounts due us under this Agreement. You agree to pay us the amounts due or we may (d) withdraw such amounts from the Approved Bank Account or Lockbox Account, as applicable, or any other account into which you deposit Future Receipts, via ACH or electronic checks; (e) direct the Approved Card Processor, any other Receipts Custodian, and/or any other payment card processor you use in violation of this Agreement to deliver all of your Future Receipts to us until we have received the amount due; (f) enforce our rights as a secured creditor under the UCC including, without limitation, notifying any of your account debtor(s) of our security interest; (g) enforce Guarantor’s personal guaranty of performance provisions of this Agreement against the Guarantor(s) without first seeking recourse from Merchant; (h) commence a suit in equity or by action at law, or both, whether for the specific performance of any covenant, agreement or other provision contained herein, or to enforce the discharge of Merchant’s and Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or any other legal or equitable right or remedy including without limitation Purchaser’s rights of a secured party under the UCC. All rights available to us are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies available to us in law or equity.

`26.`Power of Attorney. Each Merchant and Guarantor irrevocably appoints Purchaser and its representatives as their respective agents and attorneys-in-fact with full authority to take any action or execute any instrument or document to do the following: (A) to settle all obligations due to Purchaser from any payment card processor and/or account debtor(s) of Merchant; (B) upon occurrence of a Bad Act, to perform any and all such obligations of Merchant under this Agreement, including without limitation (i) to collect monies due or to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral; (ii) to receive, endorse and collect any checks, notes, drafts, instruments, documents or chattel paper in connection with clause (i) above; (iii) to sign Merchant’s name on any invoice, bill of lading, or assignment directing customers or account debtors to make payment directly to Purchaser; and (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceeding against Merchant and/or Guarantor which Purchaser may deem necessary for the collection of any portion of the undelivered Amount Sold from the Collateral, or otherwise to enforce its rights under this Agreement.
