SECTION 2.      The Credit Facilities.

 

Section 2.1. Revolving Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date, and provided no Event of Default shall exist or the occurrence of any event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, will become an Event of Default hereunder, Lender will, at Borrower’s request, cause cash advances to be made pursuant to the Revolving Loan to be issued for the account of Borrower; provided, however, no Advance shall be made in an amount wherein the aggregate of all Revolving Loans exceeds Loan Availability for the Revolving Loan then in effect. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Loan Termination Date. If at any time the outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Revolving Loans exceeds the Loan Availability, Borrower shall immediately, and without the necessity of a demand by Lender, pay to Lender such amount as may be necessary to eliminate such excess, and a failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default. In the event that the availability of the Revolving Loan hereunder expires by the terms of this Agreement, or by the terms of any agreement extending the Maturity Date of the Revolving Loan, Lender may, in its sole discretion, continue to make requested advances; however, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in such event, Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to make any requested advance and may require payment in full of the Revolving Loan at any time and the making of any such advances shall not be construed as a waiver of such right by ▇▇▇▇▇▇.

 

Section 2.2. Disbursement of Revolving Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, each request for an Advance of a Revolving Loan, shall be in a form acceptable to Lender (the form of the Advance Request is set forth in Exhibit “A”, as the same may be reasonably modified by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ from time to time) (“Advance Request”), certified by an Authorized Representative of Borrower, and shall be accompanied by such information as Lender may reasonably require from time to time, in its sole but reasonable discretion. Lender may refuse to fund, or delay funding of, any Advance Request until Lender has reviewed, analyzed and approved such Advance Request and all supporting documentation and information. Lender shall not be obligated to make any Advance on or after the Revolving Loan Termination Date, or following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, or that would cause the outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans to exceed the Revolving Loan Availability then in effect. Except as otherwise set forth herein and subject to the express conditions set forth herein, if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has received an Advance Request for a new Revolving Loan Advance by 2:00 p.m. (Denver time), Lender shall make available its Loan in funds immediately available at the office of Lender in Denver, Colorado not later than 8:00 a.m. (Denver time) on the Business Day following the date of such Advance Request. If Lender receives an Advance Request for a new Revolving Loan Advance after 2:00 p.m. (Denver time), Lender shall make available the Revolving Loan in funds immediately available at the office of Lender in Denver, Colorado not later than 8:00 a.m. (Denver time) two (2) Business Days after the date of such Advance Request. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may rely on any such telephonic or electronically transmitted notice of a requested advance given by any person ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation such telephonic notice shall govern if ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has acted in reliance thereon. Lender shall make the proceeds of each new Revolving Loan Advance available to Borrower by transferring such funds to Borrower’s operating account or as Borrower and Lender may otherwise agree. Notwithstanding the above or anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower may not request advances against the Revolving Loan Sublimit.

 

 

Section 2.3.      Interest on the Revolving Loan and Principal Payments.

 

(a)            Interest. Subject in all cases to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the Revolving Loan Termination Date the Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Revolving Loan is advanced until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a floating rate per annum equal to the Note Rate (including at the Default Rate, if applicable), payable in arrears on the 1^st day of each calendar month, with payments beginning on the 1^st day of the month following the Closing Date, and continuing on the 1^st day of each calendar month thereafter.

 

(b)            Payment in Full on Revolving Loan Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, if not sooner paid as set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the entire unpaid outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan, together with interest and any other unpaid charges, shall mature and become due and payable by Borrower on the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

 

(c)            Authorization to Lender. Borrower hereby requests and authorizes Lender to make advances directly to itself for monthly interest payments against the Revolving Loan Sublimit in accordance with Section 4.3.

 

Section 2.4. Prepayments. Borrower may prepay in whole or in part any of the Revolving Loans at any time without payment of any penalty or premium. Any prepayments received in accordance with this Section will not, unless agreed to by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation to continue to make regularly scheduled payment due hereunder. Rather, such prepayment will reduce the principal balance due. Notwithstanding any such repayments of Advances under the Revolving Loans, subject in all cases to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall be entitled without penalty to borrow, repay and re-borrow Advances under the Revolving Loan on a revolving basis until the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

 

 

Section 2.5. Default Rate and Late Fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists or at maturity or after acceleration, Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loan until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to Eighteen percent (18.0%) per annum, for so long as such Event of default shall be continuing (the “Default Rate”). No delay by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in electing to receive interest at the Default Rate after an Event of Default or at maturity or after acceleration shall be deemed a waiver by Lender of such right. In addition to default interest, if any regularly scheduled payment of principal or interest is ten (10) days or more late (including at maturity), Borrower will be charged a late fee equal to five percent (5.0%) of the regularly scheduled payment (including the balance at maturity, in the event of a default in the payment of the balance at maturity). While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid upon the demand of Lender. No delay by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in electing to receive interest at the Default Rate after an Event of Default or at the Maturity Date of the Revolving Loan shall be deemed a waiver by Lender of such right. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

 

Section 2.6. Collateral. The repayment of the Obligations shall be secured by: (a) a perfected security interest in all of the Collateral pledged by Borrower, subject only to Permitted Liens, and (b) all other Property of Borrower now or hereafter pledged to Lender to secure repayment of any of the Obligations.

 

Section 2.7. Protective Advance. Lender may initiate an advance in its sole discretion for any reason when an Event of Default exists or after the Revolving Loan Termination Date, without any Borrower’s compliance with any of the conditions of this Agreement, and (a) disburse the proceeds directly to any Person in order to protect Lender’s interest in Collateral or to perform any of any Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement, or (b) apply the proceeds to the amount of any Obligations then due and payable to Lender.

 

SECTION 3.      Fees And Expenses.

 

Section 3.1. Transaction Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the Closing Date, all of Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs, Uniform Commercial Code and other public record searches, lien filings, title insurance, recording fees, Federal Express or similar express or messenger delivery costs for work done with respect to the preparation and negotiation of the Loan Documents. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees and acknowledges that the fees outlined in this Section are earned fully as of the Closing Date and will not be subject to refund, except as required by law.

 

Section 3.2. Upfront Closing Fee. On the Closing Date Borrower shall pay to Lender a one- time non-refundable upfront closing fee equal to Sixty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($60,000.00) (“Closing Fee”). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees and acknowledges that the fees outlined in this Section are earned fully as of the Closing Date and will not be subject to refund, except as required by law.

Borrower represents and warrants to Lender as follows:

 

Section 5.1. Organization and Qualifications. Borrower is validly existing under the laws of the State of its formation and is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it requires such licensing or qualifying, except where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Authority and Validity of Obligations. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, to grant to Lender the Liens described in the Collateral Documents to which it is a party, and to perform all of its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party. The Loan Documents delivered by Borrower have been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by Borrower and constitute valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not, nor does the performance or observance by Borrower of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) violate or constitute a default under any provision of law or any judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon Borrower or any organizational documents of Borrower, (b) violate or constitute a default under any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting Borrower, in each case where such violation or default, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (c) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon the Collateral other than the Liens granted in favor of Lender pursuant to the Collateral Documents.

Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part of the proceeds of the Revolving Loan will be used to purchase or carry any such margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock.

As of the dates of such financial statements, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has no material obligation, contingent liability, liability for taxes or long-term lease obligation which is not reflected in such financial statements or in the notes thereto. Since the date of such statements, and as of the date of such statement(s) there will have been been no material adverse change in the business, operations, property, assets or condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower.

 

Section 5.5. Full Disclosure. The written statements and information furnished to Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the commitments by Lender to provide all or part of the financing contemplated hereby do not, as of the date of this Agreement, contain any untrue statements of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the material statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they are made, Lender acknowledging that as to any projections furnished, Borrower only represents that the same were prepared on the basis of information and estimates ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ believed to be reasonable at the time such projections were prepared.

No investigation or proceeding which could reasonably be expected to result in revocation or denial of any material license, permit or approval of Borrower is pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against Borrower unless such revocation or denial could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

 

Section 5.7. Good Title. Borrower has, or immediately after the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby will have, good and defensible beneficial title to the Collateral it has pledged to Lender, subject to no Liens other than Permitted Liens, or such other items which, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect..

 

Section 5.8. Litigation and Other Controversies. Except as has been disclosed to Lender in writing, there is no litigation, suit, proceeding, arbitration, governmental investigation or controversy pending, nor to the knowledge of Borrower threatened, against Borrower which if adversely determined, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 5.9. Taxes. All tax returns (if any) required to be filed by or on behalf of Borrower in any jurisdiction have, in fact, been filed, and all taxes, assessments, fees, and other governmental charges upon Borrower or any of its property, which are shown to be due and payable in such returns, have been paid, except such taxes, assessments, fees and governmental charges, if any, as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings which prevent enforcement of the matter under contest and as to which adequate reserves have been provided or such tax returns for which the failure to file and such taxes, assessments, fees, and other governmental charges for which the failure to pay could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Borrower does not know of any proposed additional tax assessment against Borrower for which adequate provisions have not been made. Adequate provisions on the books of Borrower have been made for taxes which are being contested in good faith by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for all open years, and for its current fiscal period.

 

Section 5.10. Approvals. No authorization, consent, license or exemption from, or filing or registration with, any court or governmental department, agency or instrumentality, nor any approval or consent of any other Person, is or will be necessary for the valid execution, delivery or performance by Borrower of any Loan Document, except for the filing of financing statements as contemplated by the Loan Documents, such approvals which have been obtained prior to the date of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect or where the absence of such authorization, consent, license or exemption from, or filing or registration with, any court or governmental department, agency or instrumentality, or approval or consent of any other Person could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 5.11. Compliance with Laws. Borrower is in substantial compliance with the requirements of all federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to or pertaining to its Property or business operations, except where any such non-compliance, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.12. Other Agreements. Borrower is not in default under the terms of any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting Borrower, which default if uncured could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 5.13. Solvency.

Section 5.16. Affiliate Transactions. Borrower is not a party to any contracts or agreements with any of its Affiliates on terms and conditions which are less favorable to Borrower than generally available on an arms-length basis from unrelated third parties.

SECTION 7.      Covenants Of Borrower.

 

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that, so long as the Obligations remain outstanding, except to the extent compliance in any case or cases is waived in writing pursuant to the terms of Section 9.11:

  

Section 7.1. Maintenance of Business. Borrower shall preserve and maintain its existence. Borrower shall preserve and keep in force and effect all licenses, permits, approvals, trademarks, trade names, trade styles, copyrights, and other proprietary rights necessary to the proper conduct of its business where the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 7.2. Maintenance and Repair of Property. Borrower shall maintain and preserve its assets in good repair, working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and shall from time to time make all needful and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, and betterments thereto so that at all times the efficiency thereof shall be fully preserved and maintained, except to the extent that, in the reasonable business judgment of Borrower, any such Property is no longer necessary for the proper conduct of Borrower’s business.

 

Section 7.3. Taxes and Assessments. Borrower shall duly pay and discharge all taxes, rates, assessments, fees, and governmental charges of any kind or nature upon or against it, in each case before the same become delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, unless and to the extent that the same are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and adequate reserves are provided therefore or would not be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

Section 7.4. Insurance. Borrower shall insure and keep insured, with sound and reputable insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Lender, all of the insurable Collateral and other insurable assets owned by it which is of a character usually insured by Persons similarly situated and operating like businesses against loss or damage from such hazards and risks, and in such amounts, as are insured by Persons similarly situated; and Borrower shall insure such other hazards and risks with good and responsible insurance companies as and to the extent usually insured by Persons similarly situated and conducting similar businesses (the “Insurance”). Borrower shall, upon the request of Lender, provide a certificate setting forth in summary form the nature and extent of the Insurance. All policies of Insurance (a) shall name Lender as an additional named insured, mortgagee and/or loss payee, as its interest may appear, (b) shall cover Borrower and any other persons or entities having an interest in the Collateral, as their interests may appear, (c) shall insure the named insureds against all liability for loss, injury, damage or claims caused by, arising out of or in connection with the ownership, possession, operation or maintenance of the Collateral, (d) shall provide that if such insurance is canceled for any reason, or if such insurance is allowed to lapse for nonpayment of premiums, such cancellation or lapse shall not be effective as to Lender for thirty (30) days after receipt by Lender of written notice from the insurers of such cancellation or lapse, (e) shall be primary without right of contribution from any other insurance which may be carried by Lender, and (f) shall expressly provide that all of the provisions thereof shall operate in the same manner as if there were a separate policy covering each insured (provided that such policies shall not operate to increase the insurer’s limit of liability). Upon request, Borrower shall furnish to Lender original policies, certificates or other appropriate evidence of the Insurance coverage required hereby and evidence that the applicable premium has been paid.

 

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agrees to direct all insurers under the Insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder to Lender and all proceeds received by Lender shall be delivered to Borrower for the sole purpose of replacing or repairing the damaged Collateral, except if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in which case such proceeds may be applied to the Obligations in such order and manner as Lender shall reasonably determine. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower irrevocably, makes, constitutes and appoints Lender (and all authorized representatives, employees or agents designated by ▇▇▇▇▇▇) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact (and agent-in- fact) for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims with respect to any Collateral under the Insurance, endorsing the name of Borrower on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of the Insurance payable in with respect to any Collateral and making all determinations and decisions with respect to the Insurance with respect to any Collateral. In the event that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is entitled hereunder to receive proceeds under the Insurance, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any Insurance proceeds paid over to Borrower, nor will any such proceeds received by Lender bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Borrower. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender may, prior to the application of any Insurance proceeds, commingle them with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Lender may determine in ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s sole discretion.

 

 

If Borrower at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the Insurance or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto, then Lender, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by Borrower hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation to) obtain and maintain the Insurance and pay such premiums and take such other actions with respect thereto as Lender deems advisable. All sums disbursed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with any such actions, including without limitation (other than limitations imposed by applicable law or rule of court) reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs, and other charges relating thereto, shall constitute Obligations hereunder and shall be payable upon written demand by Borrower to Lender and, if not paid within twenty (20) Business Days following such written demand, shall bear interest at the Default Rate.

 

If Lender shall at any time so request following any Event of Default and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, Borrower will immediately deposit with Lender an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Lender estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premium for the policies of Insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Borrower will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Lender estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each Insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Lender with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. Lender will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such Insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Lender be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be commingled with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s own funds.

 

Section 7.5. Reporting and Covenants. Borrower shall maintain a standard system of accounting, in accordance with GAAP, and shall furnish to Lender and its duly authorized representatives such information respecting the business and financial condition of Borrower as Lender may reasonably request in writing; and without any request, shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Lender:

 

(a)            as soon as available, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar year-end, Borrower shall provide Lender with a copy of the balance sheet of Borrower as of the last day of such calendar year-end and the statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows of Borrower for the previous calendar year-end, each in reasonable detail, prepared in accordance with GAAP and certified by an officer of Borrower;

 

(b)            as soon as available, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, Borrower shall provide Lender with a copy of the balance sheet of Borrower as of the last day of such calendar quarter and the statements of income, retained earnings, and cash flows of Borrower for the previous quarter and for the fiscal year-to-date period then ended, each in reasonable detail, prepared in accordance with GAAP and certified by an officer of Borrower;

 

(c)            as soon as available, and in any event within fifteen (15) days of filing, Borrower and each Guarantor shall provide to Lender a copy of their completed federal income tax return together with all schedules and exhibits and, if filed, any requests for extensions. If an extension is filed, a copy of the extension must be provided to Lender within fifteen (15) days of filing and a copy of the completed federal income tax return together with all schedules and exhibits must be provided to Lender within fifteen (15) days of filing such extended return;

 

 

(d)            as soon as available, and in any event sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year, each Guarantor shall provide to Lender an updated personal financial statement listing each such Guarantor’s assets and liabilities, including liquidity statements and contingent liabilities, in such detail as Lender may reasonably require;

 

(e)            promptly after knowledge thereof shall have come to the attention of any responsible officer of Borrower, written notice of (i) any material change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of Borrower or any Guarantor; (ii) any threatened or pending litigation or governmental or arbitration proceeding or controversy of or relating to the Collateral which, if determined adversely, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any threatened or pending litigation or governmental or arbitration proceeding or labor controversy against Borrower which, if determined adversely, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

 

(f)            Guarantors further agree, covenant, represent and warrant that, so long as any portion of the Indebtedness remains outstanding, Guarantor will not give or otherwise transfer or dispose of any material portion of any of their respective assets to any other Person for less than the fair market value of such assets; and

 

(g)            Such other information (including non-financial information) as Lender may from time to time reasonably request.

 

Section 7.6. Inspection of the Business and Collateral. Borrower shall permit Lender, and its duly authorized representatives and agents, during regular business hours, to visit and inspect the Collateral, any of its books and financial records, to examine and make copies of its books of accounts and other financial records, and to discuss its affairs, finances, and accounts with, and to be advised as to the same by, its officers, employees, independent public accountants (and by this provision Borrower hereby authorizes such accountants to discuss with Lender the finances and affairs of Borrower), or Affiliates at such reasonable times and intervals as Lender may request and with reasonable prior written notice to Borrower; provided, however, Lender may conduct inspections without prior written notice to Borrower if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

Section 7.7. Location of the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to notify Lender of the location of the Collateral within five (5) days following receipt of written demand from Lender.

Borrower shall not create, assume or permit to exist any security interest, encumbrance, mortgage, deed of trust, or other lien (including, but not limited to, a lien of attachment, judgment or execution) affecting any of the Collateral, or execute or allow to be filed any financing statement or continuation thereof affecting any of such properties, except for permitted liens or as otherwise provided in this Agreement (collectively, “Permitted Liens”). Permitted Liens shall include:

(c)            Liens granted in favor of Lender pursuant to the Collateral Documents;

Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not issue, incur, assume, create or have outstanding any indebtedness for borrowed money, or be or become liable as endorser, guarantor, surety or otherwise for any debt, obligation or undertaking of any other Person, or otherwise agree to provide funds for payment of the obligations of another, or otherwise assure a creditor of another against loss, or apply for or become liable to the issuer of a letter of credit which supports an obligation of another, or subordinate (other than in the ordinary course of business) any claim or demand it may have to the claim or demand of any other Person; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not restrict nor operate to prevent:

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to indemnify, defend and hold ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and its successors and assigns, harmless against and from any and all liabilities, claims and losses resulting, directly or indirectly, from a breach of this Section and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will pay or reimburse Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs required or requested by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in Lender’s reasonable discretion, to insure compliance with this Section. This obligation to indemnify shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

(f)            make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has failed to make or perform, and Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Borrower to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Borrower. All payments made and expenses (including reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs) incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Borrower to Lender. In lieu of advancing Lender’s own funds for such purposes, Lender may use any funds of Borrower which may be in Lender’s possession, including but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums, or other purposes;

 

(g)            notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Lender will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Borrower to cure or refrain from repeating any default;

 

(h)            exercise all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and any other applicable law with respect to the Collateral and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts and general intangibles.

(j)            surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply any unearned premiums as a credit on the Obligations and, in connection therewith, Borrower hereby appoints ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or any officer of Lender) as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Borrower (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums; and

 

(k)            nothing contained in this Agreement or any exercise by Lender of any right or remedy pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, shall modify or limit any obligations or liabilities of Borrower under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agrees and acknowledges that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may seek to enforce any rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement, the Note and any other of the Loan Documents against Borrower.

 

Section 8.4. Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay to ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and any other holder of the Note outstanding hereunder, all reasonable costs and expenses reasonably incurred or paid by Lender or any such holder, including reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs, in connection with any Default or Event of Default hereunder or in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code involving Borrower as a debtor thereunder) or in connection with the perfection and the continuation of the perfection of ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Lien on the Collateral or in connection with the release of any of the Liens of Lender on the Collateral.

 

SECTION 9.      Miscellaneous.

 

Section 9.1. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. Except as otherwise set forth in the Loan Documents, no delay or failure on the part of Lender or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any Event of Default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of Lender and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.

 

Section 9.2. Non-Business Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable.

Section 9.3. Documentary Taxes. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay on demand any documentary, stamp or similar taxes payable in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such assessment is made and whether or not any credit is then in use or available hereunder.

Section 9.8. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and their respective successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations.

Section 9.13. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. In addition to the expenses set forth in Section 3.1, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement, including, without limitation the reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in the exercise of any right or remedy available to it under this Agreement and reasonable Attorney’s Fees and Costs incurred by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, in connection with the preparation and execution of any amendment, waiver or consent to the Loan Documents related thereto. Borrower further agrees to indemnify Lender, and its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, financial advisors, and consultants (each, a “Lender Party”) against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the indemnified Person is a party thereto, or any settlement arrangement arising from or relating to any such litigation) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of the Revolving Loan, other than those which arise from (a) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of Lender Party claiming indemnification, or (b) any material breach or material violation of the Loan Documents by Lender Party (or its agents) claiming indemnification. Borrower, upon demand by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any time, shall reimburse Lender for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing) except if the same is directly due to the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The obligations of Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.15. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby.

 

Section 9.16. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as otherwise specified therein), and the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be construed and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Colorado. The parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Colorado and of any Colorado state court sitting in Boulder County, Colorado for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Lender’s rights to bring any legal action or proceeding in any other appropriate jurisdiction in its unrestricted discretion. Each of Borrower and Lender irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

 

Section 9.17. Waiver of Jury Trial. IN CONSIDERATION OF ▇▇▇▇▇▇’S DECISION TO APPROVE THE REVOLVING LOAN, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ AND BORROWER, HAVING BEEN REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL, EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT ANY CLAIM AGAINST ▇▇▇▇▇▇ UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

 

Section 9.18. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.

 

Section 9.19. Excess Interest. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, no provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion of the Revolving Loan or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) Borrower or any guarantor or endorser shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of Lender, be (i) applied as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law), (ii) refunded to Borrower, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing, (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in the relevant interest rate, and (e) neither Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall have any action against Lender for any damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any of the Obligations of Borrower is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on the Obligations of Borrower shall remain at the Maximum Rate until Lender has received the amount of interest which Lender would have received during such period on the Obligations of Borrower had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.

 

 

Section 9.20. Construction. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to permit any act or omission which is prohibited by the terms of any Collateral Document, the covenants and agreements contained herein being in addition to and not in substitution for the covenants and agreements contained in the Collateral Documents.

 

Section 9.21. Further Assurance. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees to execute and deliver to Lender upon request, and pay the costs of preparation thereof, all such other and further documents, agreements and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of the covenants and agreements in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 9.22. Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by Lender pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute Lender and Borrower as a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.
