The amount of the advance that we make on your behalf to the Supplier will be for the amount indicated on the electronic payment request. You agree that we may, at our option, make these advances even though the electronic payment requests are not accompanied or preceded by the original invoices.

We will make these advances under the following conditions:

(ii)

We are not obligated to make advances for more than 0.00% of the N/A trade-in value of the Goods as determined by the N/A publication for the month in which such advance is requested, if the Goods are vehicles, or that percentage of your purchase price if the Goods are not vehicles.

1.7 Interest. You agree to pay us interest on the amount of the outstanding balance that you owe us. Interest on all amounts advanced pursuant to this Agreement is calculated:

[X] on the basis of the actual number of days outstanding divided by 360.

1.8 Your interest rate. For advances for New Goods, your interest rate is equal to the Commercial Base Rate index rate (the “Index”) plus 50 basis points and for advances for Used Goods, your interest rate is equal to the Index plus N/A basis points. When the Index changes, your interest rate will increase or decrease correspondingly. Such rate change may occur each day.

1.9 Reduction of outstanding amounts. You agree to pay us the amount we have advanced on your line of credit for the purchase of Goods as follows:

a. New Goods. If you have not sold New Goods within 270 days of the date we made an advance for the purchase of those Goods, you agree to make an immediate principal payment of 5.00 percent of the amount of the advance, due and payable by the 15^th day of the month immediately following the month end. You agree to make additional principal payments of 10.00 percent of the amount of the advance 95 days thereafter. If you have not sold New Goods within 540 days of the date we made an advance for the purchase of those Goods, you agree to pay us immediately in full the balance you owe on that advance. At our option, if you have not sold New Goods on or before April 1 of the year immediately following the model year of the New Goods, you agree to make additional principal payments sufficient to curtail the amount you owe us, on the advance for the purchase of those Goods, down to 100% of clean NADA value for such Goods, and such Goods will then be treated as “Used Goods” subject to the principal reduction requirements of Section 1.9b. hereinafter.

b. Used Goods. If you have not sold used Goods within N/A days of the date we made an advance for the purchase of those Goods, you agree to make an immediate principal payment of 0.00 percent of the amount of the advance, due and payable by the 15^th day of the month immediately following the month end. You agree to make additional principal payments of 0.00 percent of the amount of the advance every N/A days thereafter until the Goods are sold. If the Goods have not been sold within N/A days of the date we made an advance for the purchase of those Goods, you agree to pay us immediately in full the balance that you owe on that advance.

c. Repayment upon sale. Upon the sale of Goods for which we made an advance for the purchase of such Goods, you agree, on the first to occur of seven (7) Calendar Days after the sale or forty-eight (48) hours after the collection of the sale proceeds, to make an immediate payment of principal sufficient to pay, in full, the proportion of the advance allocable to the Goods sold, as determined by us and in our sole discretion.

d. Accounting for unsold units after audit. Within five (5) Business Days after any audit, all Goods unaccounted for during the audit must be presented to us for inspection or, alternatively, you shall pay us for such Goods in the amount and pursuant to the schedule set forth in Paragraph 1.9(c) above.

1.10 Security for your line of credit. As security for all of your Obligations and for all of your other present or future Indebtedness to us, including indirect and contingent Obligations, you grant us a security interest in the Collateral, including, but not limited to, the Goods. In addition, you grant us a security interest in all Documents relating to the Collateral, any after-acquired similar property, any returned or unearned premiums on insurance insuring the Goods; any deposit now or in the future held by us in which you have an interest, and any property, securing any non-consumer loans you have with us. Any other security agreement that you have entered with us will continue to be in effect. You also assign to us all of your rights in any and all factory repurchase agreements. Any prior security interest that you have granted to us will continue to be in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Regions Bank explicitly excludes consumer loans from the security interest granted pursuant to this provision.

1.11 Previous agreements. If you have an existing floor plan line of credit agreement with us that has an outstanding balance, that agreement will continue in effect until you have paid all sums that you owe us under that agreement for advances, interest, and other charges. The available amount of credit that you have under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of your outstanding balance under the earlier agreement.

1.12 Crediting of payments. Payments received before 1 p.m. Central Time on a Business Day will be credited to your account no later than the next Business Day. Posting of payments may be delayed up to five (5) Business Days if the payment is not accompanied by the payment coupon (if provided), the payment is not made by check or money order, the payment is not received in the envelope (if provided), or if the payment is not mailed to the location designated by us for payment. Checks or money orders drawn on non-US banks shall not be accepted.

1.13 Returned item charges. You agree that if you submit a check, draft, negotiable order of withdrawal or like instrument in payment of an amount owing on your account and the instrument is not paid or is dishonored , you will pay a returned item charge in such amount as allowed by Law. You agree that we may re-present, by electronic means or otherwise, an instrument for payment. You will still be responsible for the return item charge even if, upon re-presentation, the instrument is paid. All returned item charges will be added to the principal amount owing under your account and will accrue finance charges at the interest rate set forth in Section 1.7 until paid in full. You agree that we may, in our discretion, add the amount of the return item charge to the electronic re-presentation of the instrument that was unpaid.

1.14 Late charge. You will pay a late charge of five percent (5%) on any amount due to be paid to us under this Agreement, if your payment is not received by the 15^th day of each month.

2.20 Inspection rights and easements. In addition to other inspection rights, you shall and hereby do grant and convey to us, our agents, representatives, contractors, and employees, to be exercised by us, periodically as deemed necessary by us and in our sole discretion, an easement and license to enter on the Premises, at any time and from time to time, for the purpose of making such audits, tests, inspections, and examinations, as we, in our sole discretion, deem necessary, convenient, or proper to determine the condition and use of the Goods, to make an inventory of the Goods, and to determine whether the ownership, use and operation of the Goods are in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations, including, without limitation, environmental laws, health and public accommodation laws, the ADA and the Rehabilitation Act, as applicable, and ordinances, rules and regulations relating thereto. Notwithstanding the grant of the above easement and license to us, we shall have no obligation to perform any such inspections, or to take any remedial action. All the costs and expenses incurred by us with respect to any inspections which we may conduct or take pursuant to this paragraph, including, without limitation, the fees of any engineers, laboratories, and contractors, shall be repaid by you, with interest, and shall be secured by this Agreement and the other Documents executed in connection with this Agreement. Further, any audit or examination conducted by us is for our sole use and benefit, and is not for your benefit. Our inspection rights, audits and examinations are for our business purposes, and may not be relied upon by you for your business purposes apart from the requirements of this Agreement.

2.21 Demonstrators. If you plan to use any of the Goods as a demonstration model, you must first give us notice in writing of your intention to do so and provide us with a written description of the Goods to be so used.

2.22 Taxes and liens. You agree to pay promptly, when and as due, and, if requested, will exhibit promptly to us, receipts for the payment of all taxes and other expenses incurred and impositions of every nature whatsoever imposed, levied or assessed or to be imposed, levied or assessed upon or against the Goods or any charge which, if unpaid, would become a lien or charge upon the Goods. You will not allow any statutory or other lien to be created or to remain outstanding upon any of the Goods.

2.23 Property insurance.

a. You shall procure for, deliver to, and maintain for the benefit of us during the term of this Agreement, insurance policies in an aggregate amount not less than the aggregate amount of the advances outstanding on your line of credit (or such greater amount as we may specify from time to time) combined single limit in such amounts as we shall require, insuring the Goods, while in transit and otherwise, against fire, extended coverage, and such other insurable hazards, casualties and contingencies as we may require. The form of such policies and the companies issuing them shall be acceptable to us, and, unless otherwise agreed by us in writing, shall provide for coverage without coinsurance or deductibles. All policies shall contain a New York standard, non-contributory endorsement making losses payable to us. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration date of all such policies, renewals thereof satisfactory to us shall be delivered to us. You shall deliver to us receipts evidencing the payment of all such insurance policies and renewals.

b. We hereby are authorized and empowered, at our option, to adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies on the Goods, and to collect and receive the proceeds from any such policy or policies. Each insurance company hereby is authorized and directed to make payment for all such losses directly to us instead of to you and us jointly. After deducting from said insurance proceeds any expenses incurred by us in the collection or handling of said funds, we may apply the net proceeds, at our option, either toward repairing or restoring the Goods, or as a credit on any portion of your Indebtedness selected by us, whether then matured or to mature in the future, or at our option, such sums either wholly or in part may be used to repair the Goods or for any other purpose and in a manner satisfactory to us, all without affecting the Lien of this Agreement for the full amount secured hereby before such payment took place. We shall not be liable to you or otherwise responsible for any failure to collect any insurance proceeds due under the terms of any policy regardless of the cause of such failure, nor shall we bear any risk of loss as to the Goods.

c. If required by us, you shall pay on the first day of each month, in addition to any regular installment of principal and interest and other charges with respect to the Indebtedness secured hereby, one-twelfth (1/12th) of the yearly premiums for insurance maintained pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph. Such amount shall be used by us to pay such insurance premiums when due. Such added payments shall not be, nor be deemed to be, trust funds, but may be commingled with the general funds of ours, and no interest shall be payable in respect thereof. Upon our demand, you agree to deliver to us such additional moneys as are necessary to make up any deficiencies in the amounts deposited by you with us pursuant to this paragraph to enable us to pay such insurance premiums when due. In the event of an Event of Default hereunder or of a default by you under any of the Documents executed in connection with this Agreement, we may apply such sums to the reduction of the Indebtedness secured hereby in any manner selected by us.

2.24 If we buy insurance. If you do not or cannot insure the Goods, we have the right to buy coverage insuring only our interest or insuring both your and our interest. In either case, we may demand reimbursement from you or make an advance to pay the cost. However, we have no obligation to acquire, maintain or replace any policy.

2.25 Care of the Goods. You will preserve and maintain the Goods in good condition and repair, and shall not commit or suffer any waste. If the Goods or any part thereof are damaged by fire or any other cause, you shall give immediate written notice of the same to us. We hereby are authorized to enter upon the Premises and inspect the Goods, and to inspect your or your agent’s records with respect to the ownership, use, management and operation of the Goods, at any time during normal business hours.

2.26 Information about sales. At our request, you agree to tell us the name and address of any person who buys or has bought any of the Goods. You also agree to deliver to us all of the Documents you have concerning any sale. You agree to give us this information and these Documents promptly.

2.27 Your warranty on advances. You agree that you will not request an advance or cause a request to be made on your behalf unless you are in strict compliance with all of the terms of this Agreement. You agree that each request by you for an advance will constitute your new promise and representation that you are in strict compliance with all terms of this Agreement.

2.28 Security documents and costs. You agree to sign at any time any Documents we request in order to perfect or protect our security interest. You agree to pay reasonable costs related to perfecting or protecting our security interest, including filing fees and reasonable attorney’s fees. A reproduction of this signed Agreement or a signed financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement. You authorize us to add any information to this Agreement which would be necessary to make it an effective financing statement.

2.29 List of Goods. We may from time to time give you a listing of the Goods for which we have made an advance or a listing of the amount of the outstanding balance on your line of credit. You agree to examine this list within three (3) Business Days of when you receive it and notify us immediately in writing if you claim any of the information is wrong. If you fail to notify us, you agree that you may not question or dispute the accuracy of any information on the list.

2.30 Our rights to the security. You may not take any action that would give someone else a security interest in the Goods unless we agree in writing. You agree that our claims to the Goods take precedence over any other claims, except those listed above. You agree that we may at any reasonable time inspect and audit the Goods and inspect, audit and photocopy any Documents relating to the Goods.

2.31 Further assurances; after-acquired property.

a. At any time, and from time to time, upon our request, you at your expense, will make, execute and deliver or cause to be made, executed and delivered to us and, where appropriate, cause to be recorded and/or filed and from time to time thereafter to be re-recorded and/or re-filed at such time and in such offices and places as shall be deemed desirable by us any and all such other and further instruments of further assurance, certificates and other Documents as may, in our opinion be necessary or desirable in order to effectuate, complete, or perfect, or to continue and preserve your Obligations, and the priority of this Agreement as a first and prior lien upon all of the Goods, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by you. Pursuant to Paragraph 2.16, we may make, execute, and record any and all such instruments, certificates, and Documents for and in your name, and you hereby irrevocably appoint us as your agent and attorney-in-fact so to do. The lien and rights hereunder automatically will attach, without further act, to all after-acquired Goods.

b. Without limitation to the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, including subparagraph (a) of this paragraph, it hereby expressly is covenanted, agreed and acknowledged that the Lien and rights hereunder automatically will attach to any further, greater, additional, or different estate, rights, titles or interests in or to any of the Goods at any time acquired by you by whatsoever means. In consideration of our making the Loan, and to secure the line of credit, the future Indebtedness and Obligations set forth above, you hereby grant, bargain, sell and convey to us, on the same terms as set forth in this Agreement and intended to be a part hereof, all such after-acquired property and estates.

c. You shall appear in and defend all actions and other proceedings purporting to affect any of the Goods or our rights or interests under the Loan Documents (and we may, at your expense, appear in and defend any such action or other proceeding as we may determine), and you shall take or cause to be taken such further action and execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such further documents as we from time to time may reasonably require to maintain, perfect, protect, assure and confirm our rights and interests (including rights and interests in the Goods), your Obligations and the intention of the Loan Parties.

2.32 Notice of shipment or receipt of Goods. At our request, you agree to give us notice of the shipment or your receipt, or both, of any Goods for which we have made an advance.

2.33 Credit information. In addition to any credit reports that we usually make in the ordinary course of business, you authorize us to give any information we have about this line of credit and you to any of your present or future suppliers and other creditors.

2.34 Notices. We will send any notices to you at the address you have given us in this Agreement unless you have requested that we send notices to you at a different address. You agree that we do not have to honor any request to send notices to a different address if you do not make that request in writing. We will have a reasonable time to change our records after we receive your request and may continue to send notices to your previous address until our records are changed. Until our records are changed, you agree that any notices addressed to your prior address shall be binding upon you. You agree that we have given you notice when we have deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, the notice addressed to you. You agree that any notice to us must be in writing, mailed to the address under “Place of Agreement’’ above and that it is not effective until we actually receive it.

2.35 Credit limit. You agree not to request or cause a request to be made for advances which would exceed your available aggregate line of credit. If your aggregate line of credit is apportioned among different Suppliers or among new or used Goods, you also agree not to request or cause a request to be made for advances which would exceed the amount available under the applicable separate limit on your line of credit. We do not have to make any advance that would exceed any limit on all or part of your line of credit. We may, in our discretion, allow advances exceeding your available line of credit, in the aggregate or as apportioned; however, this exercise of discretion shall not constitute an agreement by us to increase the agreed upon line of credit as set forth in this Agreement. We do not have to allow advances exceeding your available line of credit even if we have done so on previous occasions. In the event we allow advances exceeding your available line of credit as apportioned, your available aggregate line of credit shall, nevertheless, be reduced by the total advance, including the excess amount over the apportioned line of credit.

If you owe us an amount in excess of the reduced line of credit, you will not have any available line of credit for advances and must immediately pay us the amount in excess of the reduced line of credit.

2.39 Change of terms. You agree that we may change any term or condition of this Agreement by giving you at least thirty (30) days prior written notice. You expressly agree and understand that any such change shall be applicable to the balance outstanding as of the effective date of the change. You may refuse to accept such change and terminate your line of credit by notifying us in writing at least one (1) day prior to the effective date of the change and paying off your balance under the existing terms of this Agreement.

SECTION IV

MISCELLANEOUS

4.1 Alternative dispute resolution.

a. Agreement to Arbitrate. In mutual consideration of the line of credit, you for yourself, your heirs, successors and assigns (“the Borrower”) and we (the “Lender” and all of its directors, officers, employees, agents, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, corporations affiliated with Lender by direct or indirect common ownership, and the assignee of this contract) agree with limited exceptions, that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies of any kind and nature between us arising out of or relating to the relationship between us will be resolved through mandatory, binding arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate covers claims that (a) arise out of or relate to this Agreement; (b) arise out of or relate to any past transactions or dealings between us; (c) arise out of or relate to any future transactions or dealings between us; and (d) disputes about whether any claims, controversies, or disputes between us are subject to arbitration to the extent permitted by federal law. Because you and we have agreed to arbitration, both of us are waiving our rights to have disputes resolved in court by a judge or jury except as set forth below.

Exceptions to Arbitration. Notwithstanding any language in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Default in payment under the line of credit, the Lender may seek its remedies in an action at law or in any permitted non-judicial manner (such as, but not limited to, the right of self-help repossession under Article 9A of the Uniform Commercial Code; and, its decision to do so shall not be deemed to be a waiver of its right thereafter to insist upon and seek specific enforcement of its rights under this Agreement, in the event that the Borrower shall assert a counterclaim or right of setoff in such judicial or non-judicial action.

Arbitration to Be Conducted by an Arbitration Administrator. The party seeking arbitration shall select one of the following two arbitration administrators: National Arbitration Forum or JAMS/Endispute. Except as modified hereby, the arbitration shall be conducted according to the rules and procedures of the selected Administrator. We will obtain a copy of the Administrator’s rules and procedures for you at your request.

Law Applicable to Arbitration Proceedings. The arbitrator is required to follow all substantive law applicable to any dispute, including the statute of limitations. The arbitrator will be bound by the Federal Rules of Evidence, and must respect any applicable attorney-client privilege, attorney work-product privilege, and any other applicable privilege. The arbitrator is required to issue a written decision setting forth the decision and the reasons for that decision. You and we agree that the arbitrator’s decision will be final, binding, and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Judicial Review of Arbitrator’s Decision. You and we agree that the arbitrator’s decision CANNOT BE APPEALED. The arbitrator’s decision is subject to judicial review only on the grounds set forth in Title 9, Section 10 of the United States Code, as well as on the ground that the decision, findings, or rationale of the decision is manifestly inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, any loan agreement, or the governing law.

No Class Actions or Joinder of Additional Parties. You agree that you will not serve as a class representative or participate as a class member in an arbitration proceeding, that only your claims will be addressed in the arbitration proceeding, and that additional parties cannot be added to the arbitration proceeding unless you and we agree in writing before the arbitration. A dispute between us that is required to be arbitrated under this Agreement, will be arbitrated only between us, even if there are additional parties to the dispute or even if you make allegations that your dispute should be handled as a class action.

Severability and Reformation. If it is ever determined that some portion of this section is void, voidable, or unenforceable, or if the inclusion of some provision in this section would render the Agreement unenforceable, you and we agree that the void, voidable, or unenforceable provision or the provision that renders the section unenforceable will be severed from the remainder of the Agreement, leaving the remainder of the Agreement enforceable. You and we further agree that a court may reform any portion of this Agreement found to be void, voidable, or unenforceable, or the inclusion of which would render this Agreement unenforceable.

Replacement of Existing Arbitration Agreements. You and we agree that this Alternative Dispute Resolution Agreement supersedes and replaces any prior Alternative Dispute Resolution Agreement between us.

Federal Arbitration Act Applies. The parties understand and agree that this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

SECTION 1-16 (THE “FAA”); (ii) THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL APPLY APPLICABLE SUBSTANTIVE LAW CONSISTENT WITH THE FAA; (iii) THAT EACH OF THEM IS WAIVING RIGHTS TO SEEK REMEDIES IN COURT, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL; (iv) THAT PRE-ARBITRATION DISCOVERY IN ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS IS GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN AND DIFFERENT FROM COURT PROCEEDINGS; (v) THAT THE ARBITRATORS’ AWARD IS NOT REQUIRED TO INCLUDE FACTUAL FINDINGS OR LEGAL REASONING, AND (vi) EITHER PARTY’S RIGHT TO APPEAL OR TO SEEK MODIFICATION OF RULINGS BY THE ARBITRATORS, IS STRICTLY LIMITED TO APPEALS PERMITTED BY THE FAA.

c. THE VENUE FOR ARBITRATION UNDER THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE IN THE CITY OF BIRMINGHAM, STATE OF ALABAMA.

4.2 Waiver of trial by jury. In the event that the foregoing alternative dispute resolution is deemed unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, the parties to this Agreement desire to avoid the additional time and expense related to a jury trial of any dispute arising hereunder. Therefore, it is mutually agreed by and between the parties hereto, and for their successors and assigns, that they shall and hereby do waive trial by jury of any claim, counterclaim, or third-party claim, including any and all claims of injury or damages, brought by either party against the other arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement and the relationship which arises here from. The parties acknowledge and agree that this waiver is knowingly, freely, and voluntarily given, is desired by the parties, and is in the best interest of the parties.

4.3 Missing / incomplete information. In the event we and you fail to complete any of the blanks requiring information to be included within the first page of this Agreement, you agree that we may supply the missing information based upon our standard and customary credit policies.

4.4 Beneficiary. No third party shall have any legally enforceable rights in this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between Regions Bank and any person or entity other than you.

4.5 General deposits. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a written agreement between you and us which would require that monies advanced pursuant to this Agreement be paid only to a particular identified or identifiable person or that any such advances be made and payable only for a specific or particular purpose. Any deposits of advances pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall constitute general deposits and shall not constitute special deposits or deposits in escrow or trust. The parties hereto expressly disclaim the creation of any fiduciary or trust relationship between them, or with any third party.

4.6 Unenforceable provisions. If any section of this Agreement is not enforceable, that will not affect the validity of any other section. However, if the enactment or expiration of any applicable Law has the effect of rendering any provision of this Agreement unenforceable according to its terms, at our option, we may choose to declare your account due at once.

4.7 Damages limited. You agree that we are not liable for incidental or consequential damages, including without limitation, lost sales or lost profits, arising from our breach of this Agreement or our failure to make advances.

4.8 Waiver. You agree that our failure, in any one or more instances, to insist on the performance of any of the terms of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege conferred herein or the waiver of any breach of any terms of this Agreement shall not thereafter be construed as a waiver of such terms, which shall continue in force as if such waiver had not occurred.

4.9 Choice of law. You and we agree that the terms of this Agreement including, without limitation, available rates of interest, shall be governed by applicable federal law and the law of the State of Alabama.

4.10 Entire agreement. You agree that this written Agreement plus any other Documents that you signed when you signed this Agreement contain the entire agreement between you and us. We have not made any promises or representations to you that are not stated in this Agreement or those other Documents.
