Initials __________      1 of 1

3.1.

Factoring Fees.

3.1.1.

Funds Usage Fee.

3.1.1.1.

A Funds Usage Fee, earned daily, to be paid monthly on the last day of the month
in which it accrues.

3.1.1.2.

Notwithstanding Section 3.1.1.1., the Funds Usage Fee shall not accrue and be
payable on any funds subject to the Default Rate.

3.1.2.

Discount Fee. The Discount Fee, payable in consideration of the rendering of the
Credit and Collection Services, which will be deducted from the Purchase Price.

3.1.3.

Service Charge. The Service Charge, payable on the date on which a Purchased
Account is paid in full or Repurchased.

3.1.4.

Adjustment Fee. The fees set forth in this Section 3.1. have been established
after negotiation between the Seller and the Purchaser based on the Purchaser
purchasing a minimum of $600,000.00 of Eligible Accounts per each monthly,
quarterly, semi-annually, or yearly period ("Adjustment Fee Calculation Period")
of the Scheduled Term of the Rescheduled Term (the "Base Sales Amount"). The
Adjustment Fee Calculation Period shall be yearly. Should this section not
expressly state an Adjustment Fee Calculation Period, then the Adjustment Fee
Calculation Period shall be monthly. If Purchaser does not purchase Eligible
Accounts of at least the Base Sales Amount in any Adjustment Fee Calculation
Period for any reason, then Seller shall pay to Purchaser an adjustment fee at
the end of such Adjustment Fee Calculation Period equal to (i)(a) the actual
aggregate fees earned by the Purchaser for the applicable Adjustment Fee
Calculation Period (the "Partial Fee") multipled by (b) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Base Sales Amount and the denominator which is the
Eligible Purchased Accounts sold to Purchaser for such Adjustment Fee
Calculation Period minus (ii) the Partial Fee; provided, however, if Seller does
not sell any Accounts to Purchaser in such Adjustment Fee Calculation Period
then Seller shall pay to Purchaser an adjustment fee at the end of each such
Adjustment Fee Calculation Period equals to (i) the Base Sales Amount multipled
by (II) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate fees earned by the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the denominator of which is the actual
aggregate amount of all Eligible Accounts purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement (the "No Delivery Fee"). If the aggregate fees earned by the
Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement equal zero (0) then the No Delivery Fee
shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the Base Sales Amount by (ii) a fraction,
the numerator of which is the Discount Fee and the denominator of which is .5%.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary within, Purchaser may terminate this
Agreement, in its sole discretion with three day’s notice, if, for a period of
45 days, Seller does not sell any Accounts to Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason before the Scheduled
Term or a Rescheduled Term, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the No Delivery Fee
for the unexpired period of time remaining in the Scheduled Term or Rescheduled
Term, as applicable.  Notwithstanding the above, Seller may terminate at any
time, without penalty, should they obtain an asset based loan from Bank of
America.

reasonable credit judgment has become insolvent.

4.1.4.

All Purchased Accounts upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or upon the
effective date of termination of this Agreement;

4.2.

The Repurchase of a Purchased Account shall not constitute a reassignment
thereof and Purchaser shall retain its security interest therein.

Clearance Days. For all purposes under this Agreement, Clearance Days will be
added to the date on which any payment is received by Purchaser.

6.

Security Interest.

6.1.

To secure payment and performance of the Obligations, Seller grants to Purchaser
a continuing first priority security interest in and to the Collateral.

6.2.

the parties shall be that of Purchaser and Seller of Accounts, and not that of
lender and borrower.

7.

Authorization to Purchaser.

7.1.

Seller hereby irrevocably authorizes Purchaser and any designee of Purchaser, at
Seller's sole expense, to exercise at any times in Purchaser's or such

Obligations have been paid in full: (a) receive, take, endorse, assign, deliver,

Initials __________      3 of 1

public record releasing any Lien granted to Seller by such Account Debtor),
without affecting any of the Obligations, (e) execute in the name of Seller and
file against Seller in favor of Purchaser financing statements or amendments
with respect to the Collateral, (f) pay any sums necessary to discharge any Lien
or encumbrance which is senior to Purchaser's security interest in the

mechanics lien or related notices, or (2) claims under any payment bond, in
connection with goods or services sold by Seller in connection with the
improvement of realty, (h) at any time, irrespective of whether an Event of
Default has occurred, without notice to or the assent of Seller, notify any
Account Debtor obligated with respect to any Account, that the underlying

 In no event will Purchaser have any liability to Seller for lost profits or
other special or consequential damages. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, Seller releases Purchaser from any claims which Seller may now or

issued by Seller's customers stating that they were in full payment of an
Account, but issued for less than the full amount which may have been owed on
the Account.

7.4.

Seller authorizes Purchaser to accept, endorse, and deposit on behalf of Seller
any checks tendered by an Account Debtor "in full payment" of its obligation to
Seller.  Seller shall not assert against Purchaser any claim arising therefrom,

satisfaction of Seller's claims, under §3-311 of the UCC, or otherwise.

7.5.

ACH Authorization. In order to satisfy any of the Obligations, Purchaser is
hereby authorized by Seller to initiate electronic debit entries through the ACH

wherever located.  Seller may only terminate this authorization by giving
Purchaser thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination.

8.

Covenants by Seller.

8.1.

After written notice by Purchaser to Seller, and automatically, without notice,
after an Event of Default, Seller shall not, without the prior written consent
of Purchaser in each instance, (a) grant any extension of time for payment of
any of the Purchased Accounts, (b) compromise or settle any of the Purchased
Accounts for less than the full amount thereof, (c) release in whole or in part
any Account Debtor, or (d) grant any credits, discounts, allowances, deductions,
return authorizations, or the like with respect to any of the Purchased
Accounts.

8.2.

From time to time as requested by Purchaser, at the sole expense of Seller,
Purchaser or its designee shall have access, during reasonable business hours if
prior to an Event of Default and at any time if on or after an Event of Default,
to all premises where Collateral is located for the purposes of inspecting (and
removing, if after the occurrence of an Event of Default) any of the Collateral,
including Seller's books and records, and Seller shall permit Purchaser or its
designee to make copies of such books and records or extracts therefrom as
Purchaser may request.  Without expense to Purchaser, Purchaser may use any of
Seller's

Initials __________      4 of 1

personnel, equipment, including computer equipment, programs, printed output and
computer readable media, supplies, and premises for the collection of Accounts
and realization on other Collateral as Purchaser, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate.  Seller hereby irrevocably authorizes all accountants and third
parties to disclose and deliver to Purchaser at Seller's expense all financial
information, books and records, work papers, management reports, and other
information in their possession relating to Seller.

8.3.

Before sending any invoice evidencing a Purchased Account to the Account Debtor,

Purchaser.

8.4.

Seller shall pay when due all payroll and other taxes and shall provide proof

8.6.

Seller shall maintain insurance on all insurable property owned or leased by
Seller in the manner, to the extent and against at least such risks (in any
event, including but not limited to fire and business interruption insurance) as
usually maintained by owners of similar businesses and properties in similar
geographic areas. All such insurance shall be in amounts and form and with
insurance companies acceptable to Purchaser in its sole discretion.  Seller
shall furnish to Purchaser: (a) upon written request, any and all information
concerning such insurance carried; (b) as requested by Purchaser, lender loss
payable endorsements (or their equivalent) in favor of Purchaser.  All policies
of insurance shall provide for not less than thirty (30) days prior written
cancellation notice to Purchaser.

8.7.

Notwithstanding that Seller has agreed to pay the Misdirected Payment Fee
pursuant to Section 3.2.1. hereof, Seller shall deliver in kind to Purchaser on
the next Business Day following the date of receipt by Seller of the amount of
any payment on account of a Purchased Account.

8.8.

Avoidance Claims.

8.8.1.

Seller shall indemnify Purchaser from any loss arising out of the assertion of
any Avoidance Claims and shall pay to Purchaser on demand the amount thereof.

the assertion of an Avoidance Claim.

8.8.3.

The provisions of this Section 8.8. shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.

Purchaser, will settle all disputes concerning any Purchased Account, at

prior written consent, compromise or adjust any Purchased Account or grant any
additional discounts, allowances or credits thereon.  Purchaser may, but is not
required to, attempt to settle, compromise, or litigate (collectively,
"Resolve") the dispute upon such terms as Purchaser in its sole discretion deem
advisable, for Seller's account and risk and at Seller's sole expense.  Upon the

to any Account of Seller.

14.

Enforcement. This Agreement and all agreements relating to the subject matter
hereof are the product of negotiation and preparation by and among each party
and its respective attorneys, and shall be construed accordingly. Accordingly,
no provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the

Survival. All representations, warranties, and covenants contained in this
Agreement shall be and remain effective for so long as this Agreement has not
been terminated in accordance with its terms or any of the Obligations remain
outstanding

20.

No Waiver; Cumulative Nature of Rights and Remedies. No failure to exercise and
no delay in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall impair any
right, power, or remedy which Purchaser may have, nor shall any such delay be
construed to be a waiver of any of such rights, powers, or remedies, or any
acquiescence in any breach or default hereunder; nor shall any waiver by
Purchaser of any breach or default by Seller hereunder be deemed a waiver of any
default or breach subsequently occurring.  All rights and remedies granted to
Purchaser hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any
single or partial exercise of, or any discontinuance of action begun to enforce,
any such right or remedy.  The rights and remedies specified herein are
cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any rights or remedies which
Purchaser would otherwise have.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval by
Purchaser of any breach or default hereunder must be in writing and shall be
effective only to the extent set forth in such writing and only as to that
specific instance.

21.

Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, then
such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, and the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining
provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby.

22.

Relationship of Parties. The relationship of the parties hereto shall be that of
Seller and Purchaser of Accounts, and Purchaser shall not be a fiduciary of the
Seller, although Seller may be a fiduciary of Purchaser.

23.

Reimbursement of Expenses. Seller agrees to reimburse Purchaser on demand for
the actual amount of all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, which
Purchaser has incurred or may incur in (a) negotiating, preparing, or
administering this Agreement and any documents prepared in connection herewith,
all of which shall be paid contemporaneously with the execution hereof, and (b)
protecting, preserving, or enforcing any Lien, security interest, or other right
granted by Seller to Purchaser or arising under applicable law, whether or not
suit is brought.  Any such costs and expenses incurred subsequent to the
execution hereof shall become part of the Obligations when incurred and may be
added to the outstanding principal amount due hereunder.

24.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
agreements and understandings between said parties, verbal or written, express
or implied, relating to the subject matter hereof.  No promises of any kind have
been made by Purchaser or any third party to induce Seller to execute this
Agreement.  No course of dealing, course of performance or trade usage, and no
parol evidence of any nature, shall be used to supplement or modify any terms of
this Agreement.

25.

Choice of Law. This Agreement and all transactions contemplated hereunder and/or
evidenced hereby shall be governed by, construed under, and enforced in
accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida.

26.

Construction of Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
this Agreement, in no event shall the rate or amount of fees or other charges
that are deemed interest under applicable law and that are charged or collected
hereunder exceed the maximum amount chargeable under applicable law (the
"Maximum Rate") (it being the intent hereof that Purchaser not contract or
receive and Seller not pay interest in excess of the Maximum Rate), and, if a
court of competent jurisdiction determines that Purchaser has charged or
collected

Initials __________      8 of 1

interest in excess of the Maximum Rate, Purchaser shall promptly refund such
excess to Seller and shall not otherwise be penalized.  In determining whether
the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Purchaser exceeds the
Maximum Rate, Purchaser may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a)
characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium
rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof,
and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the
total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations
hereunder.

27.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER.  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 hereof, or the interpretation, performance, or
breach of this Agreement, shall, if Purchaser so elects, be instituted in the
United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida or any court of
the State of Florida located in Orange County (each an "Acceptable Forum").
 Each party agrees that the Acceptable Forums are convenient to it, and each
party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the Acceptable Forums,
irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection
with this Agreement, and waives any and all objections to jurisdiction or venue
that it may have under the laws of the State of Florida 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.
