INVOICE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

1.

Contract Formation; Intent of Parties. This Agreement becomes a binding contract upon the Effective Date once signed by an authorized representative of each of Seller and Purchaser. It is the intention of the Parties that each purchase and sale of Accounts pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a true sale which shall have the effect of the Seller as legal and beneficial owner assigning full title of all Purchased Accounts to Purchaser.

2.

Assignment and Sale. Seller offers to sell to Purchaser as absolute owner, and Purchaser in its sole discretion may elect to purchase as absolute owner, one or more Accounts from Seller, so long as the Balance Subject to Funds Usage Daily Fee does not exceed, before and after such purchase, the Maximum Amount. If Purchaser agrees to purchase any Account owing to Seller by a specific Account Debtor, then Seller shall sell and Purchaser shall purchase all Accounts owing by such Account Debtor to Seller. Each Account offered for sale shall be submitted to Purchaser and shall be accompanied by such documentation or data supporting and evidencing the Account as Purchaser may request. It is specifically understood between the Parties that Purchaser will not, in connection with the purchase of any Accounts, be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation which Seller may now or hereafter have to its Account Debtors. The Purchase Price will be credited to the Reserve Account, whereupon such Account shall be deemed purchased hereunder.

3.

Reserve Account. Purchaser shall maintain a reserve account (the "Reserve Account") from which to make advances to Seller and/or to support Seller’s Obligations incurred under this Agreement. The Reserve Account shall be a record keeping system maintained by Purchaser and shall not be a segregated bank or deposit account. Seller shall have no right, title, or interest in the Reserve Account. Purchaser shall credit any Purchase Price to the Reserve Account. Purchaser shall charge the Reserve Account for any advances made to Seller and may charge the Reserve Account for any other Obligations, including but not limited to, fees, charges and expenses. Provided there is no existing Event of Default, Purchaser may in its sole discretion advance to Seller, upon Seller's request, any amount by which the Reserve Account exceeds the Required Reserve Amount. If the Reserve Account is less than the Required Reserve Amount (a "Reserve Shortfall"), Seller shall pay such Reserve Shortfall to Purchaser upon demand. If a Reserve Shortfall is outstanding in excess of two (2) Business Days, Purchaser may charge up to the Default Rate on such Reserve Shortfall.

4.

Notice of Assignment and Lock Box. Purchaser and Seller will instruct all Account Debtors obligated with respect to any Account to pay to a lockbox established by Purchaser. All Invoices for Accounts sent by Seller to Account Debtors shall contain on the face of the Invoice the following legend: "This account is assigned and payable only to LSQ Funding Group, L.C. Payments should be sent to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇." If Seller shall cause any invoices not to contain the foregoing legend, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser, as liquidated damages, the Missing Notation Fee.

5.

Authorization for Purchases. Purchaser is authorized to purchase Accounts upon instructions received from anyone purporting to be an officer, employee, or representative of Seller.

6.

Fees, Charges and Expenses. Seller shall pay Purchaser for any and all fees and expenses as described in Annex A and elsewhere in this Agreement (including Section 17.2.), as well as all wire transfer charges, UCC filing fees, reasonable field examination and inspection fees, and other fees with respect to special or additional reports and other services, which are incurred by Purchaser in the administration of this Agreement. Payment of all such charges shall constitute Obligations, shall be secured by the Collateral, and may be charged to the Reserve Account.

7.

Repurchase of Accounts. Seller shall immediately on demand by Purchaser repurchase any Purchased Account that Purchaser determines in its sole discretion is uncollectible for any reason or is otherwise no longer an Eligible Account and on such demand shall pay to Purchaser the then unpaid Face Amount of the Account, together with any accrued but unpaid fees relating to the Account.

8.

Security Interest. To secure payment and performance of the Obligations, Seller grants to Purchaser or its authorized representative a continuing first priority security interest in, and assigns to Purchaser, all of Seller's right, title and interest in and to, the Collateral. Seller authorizes Purchaser or its authorized representative to file UCC financing statements in all jurisdictions and offices Purchaser deems appropriate which name Seller as the debtor and Purchaser or its authorized representative as the secured party, describing the collateral as “All now owned and hereafter acquired Accounts, , cash and non-cash Proceeds, and Supporting Obligations of the foregoing (including insurance proceeds and proceeds of proceeds) in any form and wherever located; and Books and Records specifically related to the Accounts and proceeds”.and Seller ratifies any action taken by Purchaser before the Effective Date of this Agreement to effect or perfect its security interest in any Collateral. The grant of the security interest provided herein shall not be construed as an indication that the Parties intend for this transaction to be a loan and not a true sale of Accounts.

9.

Clearance Days. Clearance Days will be added to the date on which Purchaser posts any payment or repurchase.

10.

Authorization to Purchaser. Seller authorizes Purchaser, at Seller's expense, to exercise the following powers until the Obligations have been paid in full: (a) receive, take, endorse, assign, deliver, accept and deposit, in the name of Purchaser or Seller, proceeds of all Purchased Accounts and any other Collateral; (b) take or bring, in the name of Purchaser or Seller, all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed by Purchaser necessary or desirable to effect collection of the Purchased Accounts and any other Collateral; (c) file any claim under any bond or under any trust fund; (d) pay any sums necessary to discharge any lien, claim, or encumbrance which is senior to Purchaser's security interest in any Collateral, which sums shall be included as Obligations, shall be immediately due and payable by Seller and may accrue interest at the Default Rate; (e) notify any Account Debtor obligated with respect to any Purchased Account, that such Purchased Account has been assigned to Purchaser by Seller and that payment thereof is to be made to the order of and directly and solely to Purchaser; (f) communicate directly with Seller's Account Debtors to verify the amount and validity of any Account owing to Seller; and (g) endorse and deposit on behalf of Seller any checks tendered by an Account Debtor "in full payment" of its obligation to Seller, irrespective of whether such payment is in fact payment in full. Seller shall not assert against Purchaser any claim arising therefrom, irrespective of whether such action by Purchaser affects an accord and satisfaction of Seller’s claims under Section 3-311 of the UCC.

11.

ACH Authorization. In order to satisfy any of the Obligations and facilitate the purchase of Accounts, Seller hereby authorizes Purchaser to process electronic debit or credit entries through the ACH system to any deposit account of Seller.

12.

Account Stated. Provided that there is no Event of Default and at Purchaser’s sole discretion, Purchaser will post online all of Seller’s non-default account activity ("Online Statement of Account"). Seller shall be solely responsible for checking its Online Statement of Account. If Seller disputes any entry on the Online Statement of Account it shall, within thirty (30) days after the first posting of the entry, send to Purchaser a written exception to such entry, in the absence of which the Online Statement of Account shall become an account stated and be deemed accepted by Seller and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Seller. Purchaser’s posting of the Online Statement of Account shall satisfy any requirements or requests for an accounting pursuant to the UCC. The Online Statement of Account may, but need not, contain all applicable fees and charges which are payable to Purchaser upon an Event of Default.

13.

Seller's Representations and Warranties. Seller represents and warrants that (a) Seller is the true, lawful and exclusive owner of its Accounts; (b) each Purchased Account (i) is and will remain a bona fide existing obligation created by the sale and delivery of goods or services in the ordinary course of its business, (ii) is not owing by an Account Debtor that is an affiliate of Seller or in which Seller otherwise has an interest, (iii) is unconditionally owed without any Dispute, and (iv) is not subject to any special terms of payment which are not shown on the face of the Invoice therefor; (c) none of the Purchased Accounts arise from a sale directly to a consumer; (d) all amounts owing on the Purchased Accounts are owing in United States dollars and any taxes or fees relating to such Purchased Accounts are solely Seller’s responsibility; (e) prior to the sale of any Purchased Account to Purchaser, the Account Debtor on any Purchased Account is not subject to any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding, and Seller has not received notice, and is not otherwise aware, of any actual or imminent bankruptcy, insolvency, or material impairment of the financial condition of any applicable Account Debtor regarding such Purchased Account; and (f) the Collateral (including all Purchased Accounts) is free and clear of all liens and security interests other than the security interests granted in favor of Purchaser.

14.1.

Account Disputes. Seller shall notify Purchaser of, and at Purchaser's request shall settle, all Disputes concerning any Purchased Account, all at Seller's sole cost and expense.

14.10.

Disposition of Collateral. Seller shall not sell, lease, rent or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral other than what is sold or leased in the ordinary course of Seller’s business, provided that Purchaser continues to have a security interest in all proceeds thereof. Without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall Seller sell, transfer or assign any of its Accounts to any person or entity other than Purchaser.

14.11.

Notice of Event of Default. Promptly, but in any event within three (3) days after Seller obtains knowledge thereof, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or any event or condition that, with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and a statement of the curative action that Seller intends to take with respect thereto.

14.12.

16.

Events of Default.

17.

Remedies; Enforcement Expenses.  

17.1.

Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Purchaser may, at its election, take any or all of the following actions, to be exercised concurrently or successively: (a) cease advancing money or extending credit to Seller or for the benefit of Seller under this Agreement, notwithstanding any credit balance in the Reserve Account; (b) accelerate and declare all Obligations immediately due and payable and demand that Seller repurchase all purchased Accounts; (c) receive and open all mail addressed to Seller and notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to Seller to such address as Purchaser may designate and Seller shall not have the right to notify the post office to change the address for delivery after Purchaser has exercised such right; (d) require Seller to assemble its Books and Records and make them available to Purchaser at Seller's expense, at a place designated by Purchaser, or deliver the same to Purchaser; (e) seek the appointment of a receiver or other custodian to take control or any or all of the Collateral; and (f) exercise all rights and remedies arising under this Agreement or applicable law, including, with respect to any Collateral or other property in which Purchaser has a security interest, all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. With respect to any Purchased Accounts, Seller hereby confirms that Purchaser is the owner thereof, that Purchaser's rights of ownership permit Purchaser to deal with such Purchased Accounts and the proceeds thereof as owner, and that Seller has no interest therein. Purchaser shall be entitled to any form of equitable relief that may be appropriate without having to establish any adequate remedy at law or other grounds to either establish that the Purchased Accounts are being improperly used or subject to dissipation or funds being fraudulently obtained by the Seller from Purchaser. In the event Purchaser deems it necessary to seek the appointment of a receiver or custodian, or seek other equitable relief by way of injunction or other legal proceeding, Purchaser shall not be required to procure or post a bond as Seller agrees that Purchaser will be irreparably harmed by such requirement. In the event that a court determines that a bond is required for any of the foregoing relief, Seller agrees that the sum of $10,000.00 is a reasonable amount for such bond. Seller waives any right it might have to any award of attorneys' fees or costs if the receiver or custodian, or equitable relief sought by Purchaser is thereafter, for whatever reason(s), vacated, dissolved or reversed.

17.2.

Expenses related to enforcement of rights. Seller shall reimburse Purchaser the actual amount of all reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and expenses, which Purchaser may incur (a) protecting, preserving or enforcing any lien, security or other right granted by Seller to Purchaser or arising under applicable law, whether or not suit is brought, including the defense of any claims affecting the value, enforceability or collectability of any Purchased Account or the defense of Purchaser's lien priority; (b) making advances to protect and preserve Purchaser's interest in the Collateral; (c) for travel and attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in complying with any subpoena or other legal process in any way relating to Seller; (d) for the actual amount of all costs and expenses which Purchaser may incur in enforcing this Agreement (including collecting or enforcing payment of any Obligation), or in connection with any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding commenced by or against Seller or any Account Debtor, including those (i) arising out of an automatic stay, (ii) seeking dismissal or conversion of a bankruptcy proceeding or (iii) opposing confirmation of Seller's plan thereunder; and (e) any consultations in connection with any of the foregoing. All such costs and expenses will be charged to the Reserve Account and are payable by Seller upon demand by Purchaser. This Section shall survive termination of this Agreement.

17.3.

Formation of New Entity. In the event Seller or any one or more of its principals, officers or directors during the term of this Agreement or while Seller remains liable to Purchaser for any Obligations under the Agreement, (i) forms a new entity; or (ii) has failed to disclose to Purchaser at the time of the Effective Date an existing entity, that does business similar to that of Seller, whether in the form of a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or otherwise, such entity shall be deemed to have expressly assumed the Obligations due to Purchaser by Seller under the Agreement. Upon the formation of any such entity, Purchaser, in addition to all of its available remedies, shall be deemed to have been granted an irrevocable power of attorney with authority to file a new financing statement with the appropriate secretary of state or UCC filing office naming the newly formed successor business or undisclosed existing business, as a debtor or new debtor. Purchaser shall have the right to notify the successor entity’s or undisclosed existing entity’s Account Debtors of Purchaser’s security interest, its right to collect all Accounts, and to notify any new secured party who has sought to obtain a competing security interest of Purchaser’s right in such entity’s assets. Seller shall indemnify Purchaser from any claims against Purchaser which arises out of Purchaser exercising any of its rights hereunder.

18.

Term and Termination.  

18.1.

Term. This Agreement will be effective as of the Effective Date, and will continue in full force and effect for 18 month(s) thereafter (the "Initial Term"), and shall be further extended automatically annually (each, a "Renewal Term"), unless terminated as follows:

18.2.

Early Termination Fee. If Seller terminates this Agreement without providing notice of termination within the time period required under Section 18.1(a), then in addition to any other fees due under this Agreement, Seller shall pay on the termination date an early termination fee equal to (i) 0.75% multiplied by (ii) the Maximum Amount multiplied by (iii) the number of months plus any portion of any month remaining in the Initial Term or any Renewal Term (the "Early Termination Fee").

18.3.

Refinancing with a Bank Lender. If Seller refinances the Obligation with a state or federally chartered bank, provided that the refinancing is not with a factor or asset based lender, which is a division or wholly owned subsidiary of a state or federally charted bank, and the agreement is not structured as a factoring or asset based lending agreement, the following terms shall apply in lieu of the Early Termination Fee:

18.4.

Survival of Terms. The provisions of this Agreement and all of Purchaser's rights, remedies and interests hereunder shall survive any termination hereof and shall continue in full force and effect until all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

18.5.

No Lien Termination without Release. Notwithstanding payment in full of all Obligations, Purchaser shall not be required to record any termination or satisfaction of its liens on the Collateral unless and until Seller and any guarantors deliver to Purchaser a general release in a form acceptable to Purchaser. Seller understands that this provision constitutes a waiver of its rights under Sections 9-509 and 9- 513 of the Uniform Commercial Code.

19.

Integration; Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement represents the final agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings and inducements, whether express or implied, oral or written. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the Parties and this Agreement may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements between the Parties. Only a writing signed by the Parties may amend this Agreement or evidence a waiver of any breach of any term by any Party hereunder. No failure or delay in exercising any right shall impair any right that Purchaser has, nor shall any waiver by Purchaser be deemed a waiver of any default or breach occurring subsequently. Purchaser's rights and remedies are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any rights or remedies that Purchaser would otherwise have.

20.

Intellectual Property Rights. Any work product, databases, dashboard, software or firmware developed or used in connection with this Agreement is licensed on a non-exclusive, nontransferable, terminable basis to Seller, not sold, and is provided for the sole purpose of use in connection with the sale and purchase of Accounts during this Agreement. Purchaser retains all right, title and interest in and to all such materials, including all intellectual property rights. Seller will not, and will not allow others to, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble such work product, software or firmware. All other rights to work product, software and firmware, express or by implication, are reserved to Purchaser.

21.

Indemnification; Limitation of Liability. 

21.1.

Seller releases and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, owners, managers, members, attorneys, agents and representatives (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, Avoidance Claims, and related costs and expenses of any nature whatsoever, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts") which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Indemnified Party in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the ownership of the Purchased Accounts or in respect of any Account or any Collateral, excluding, however, Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party as determined by a final, non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction. If Seller fails to honor this Section of the Agreement after termination thereof, Purchaser shall have the right to re-file its UCC-1 financing statement and shall have the right to pursue any and all rights and remedies against Seller as contemplated by this Agreement, the UCC or any law or in equity.

21.2.

IN NO EVENT WILL PURCHASER OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, ATTORNEYS, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE TO SELLER, OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

21.3.

This Section 21 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

22.

Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that (i) this Agreement is not assignable by Seller and any attempted assignment by Seller shall be void and have no legal force or effect; and (ii) Purchaser may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, by notice to Seller, to a successor-in-interest, in conjunction with a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of Purchaser's assets related to performance under this Agreement, and in the case of any merger or acquisition of Purchaser. In addition, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Purchaser may, from time to time, reassign and resell any Accounts to another person or entity, grant a security interest in Purchaser’s rights herein, or grant a participation interest in this Agreement or any other agreement with Seller, as Purchaser may its sole discretion determine (any such entity individually and collectively, a "Refactor"). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of agreements entered into between Purchaser and Refactor from time to time, Seller hereby consents to any such reassignment, resale or participation. Seller agrees that all agreements, representations, warranties and covenants made by it hereunder shall be deemed to be made both to Purchaser and Refactor, jointly and severally, and that the term “Purchaser” as used throughout this Agreement shall in all instances be interpreted to mean “either Purchaser or the Refactor or both of them.” 

23.

Notices. Any written notice to be given under this Agreement will be in writing and sent to the person as follows: if to Seller, see Annex A; if to Purchaser, via email to ▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇.▇▇▇. All notices shall be deemed delivered and received on the day sent. If there is more than one Seller, notice to any shall constitute notice to all; if Seller is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, the service upon any member of the Board of Directors, general partner, managing member, officer, employee or agent shall constitute service upon Seller. Any notice or other communication required by this Agreement may be done via email.

24.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

25.

Construction. Section headings are for convenience only and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind. The terms "including" and "include" shall mean "including, without limitation" and the terms “will” and “shall” may be used interchangeably and have the same meaning. This Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties and shall be construed fairly in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against either Party.

26.

Chosen Law/Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Chosen State, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.

27.

Waiver of Jury Trial. IN RECOGNITION OF THE HIGHER COSTS AND DELAY WHICH MAY RESULT FROM A JURY TRIAL, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING HEREUNDER, OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

28.

Venue; Jurisdiction. The Parties agree that any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of the subject matter or the interpretation, performance, or breach of this Agreement, shall, if Purchaser so elects, be instituted in any state of federal courts located in Orange County, Florida (each an "Acceptable Forum"). Each Party agrees that each Acceptable Forum is convenient to it, and each Party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such Acceptable Forum, irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered in connection with this Agreement, and waives any and all objections to jurisdiction or venue that it may have under the laws of any Acceptable Forum or otherwise in those courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Should such proceeding be initiated in any other forum, Seller waives any right to oppose any motion or application made by Purchaser as a consequence of such proceeding having been commenced in a forum other than an Acceptable Forum.

29.

ESIGN. The Parties agree that, if applicable, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (15 U.S.C. §§ 7001, et seq.) General Rule of Validity (Section 7001 (a)) shall apply to this Agreement and any amendments, statements of work or other documents related to this Agreement.
