Exhibit 10.1
 
AEC Yield Capital LLC
One Metrotech Center – North, Third Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201
 
Purchase and Sale Agreement (“Agreement”)
 
1. ASSIGNMENT. AEC YIELD CAPITAL, LLC (“AEC” or “Purchaser”) hereby buys and Limecom, Inc., a Florida corporation, (“Seller”), hereby sells, transfers and assigns all of Seller’s right, title and interest in and to those specific accounts receivable and related rights owing to Seller by Account Debtors as set forth on the assignment forms provided by AEC (the “Assignments”) together with all rights of action and mechanics or other liens accrued or to accrue thereon, including without limitation, full power to collect, sue for, compromise, assign or in any other manner enforce collection thereof in AEC’s name or otherwise. All of Seller’s accounts receivable, related mechanics liens and contract rights which are presently or at any time hereafter assigned by Seller, and accepted by AEC, are collectively referred to as (the “Accounts”). All capitalized terms not herein defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (the “UCC”). The Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with Purchaser’s ownership and shall not claim any ownership in any Purchased Account. The Seller shall indicate in its records that ownership interest in any Purchased Account is held by the Purchaser. In addition, the Seller shall respond to any inquiries with respect to ownership of a Purchased Account by stating that it is no longer the owner of such Purchased Account and that
ownership of such Purchased Account is held by the Purchaser

2. PURCHASE PRICE; FACTORING COMMISSION. AEC shall purchase the Accounts from Seller, in AEC’s sole and absolute discretion, at a purchase price equal to the gross face value of Accounts, less AEC’s Factoring Commission, as described in this Section 2, returns, credits, allowances, deductions, ‘finance points’ or other like charges and discounts; and less all other sums charged or chargeable to Seller’s Accounts (the “Purchase Price”). In connection with AEC’s purchase of the Accounts from Seller, AEC shall charge a factoring commission (the “Factoring Commission”) which is deducted from the face value of each Account upon collection. The Factoring Commission will be computed based upon the number of days an Account is outstanding from the date of such invoice issuance and shall be as follows:
 
i.
1.19% of the face value of each invoice purchased under the facility (each, a “Purchased Account”) (Basic Discount) computed on the Face Amount
ii.
After the 20th day from the date of invoice issuance, 0.59% per 10 days or any part thereof that an invoice remains outstanding, through the 90th day computed on the Face Amount.
 
In all instances the Factoring Commission shall be subject to adjustment in order to take the Minimum Monthly Fees into account. Minimum Monthly Fee is any amount by which the aggregate dollar amount of the factoring discount earned in each month hereunder is less than the Minimum Monthly Commission, which Minimum Monthly Fee shall accrue and be paid by Seller on the first Business Day of the following the last day of each calendar month hereunder. “Minimum Monthly Commission” is the aggregate dollar amount of the factoring discount which the Purchaser would have earned if the Purchaser had Purchased Accounts with an aggregate Face Amount of $3,500,000.00 during each month hereunder, such that a Factoring Commission, equal to the greater of the average Factoring Commission over the prior 90 days or the Factoring Commission due hereunder for an invoice paid by its obligor in 30 days, will be applied to the difference between the actual factored amount of Purchased Accounts in the given month and the minimum volume hereunder for each month.
 
Pg 1 of 20

3. ADVANCE. Upon AEC’s receipt and acceptance of each Assignment, AEC shall pay to Seller an amount corresponding to the category into which such Account shall fall, as follows (in each case net of any advances received by Seller from any party including Purchaser):
 
•          Eligible final, fully-verified receivables: 90% of the Purchase Price – if such purchase is made within the first 90 days hereunder, or 87.5% if such purchase is made thereafter. The foregoing include final invoices featuring weekly billing and 53-day payment terms.
 
•          Eligible earned but not yet billed receivables (usage confirmed and verified by Purchaser to its satisfaction): 50% of the Purchase Price (net of other advances received by Seller from any party including Purchaser)
 
All of the foregoing advance rates are computed as a percentage of the net face value (as described above) of the Accounts therein described (the “Advance”) on an ongoing basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the maximum outstanding balance of Seller to AEC shall initially be Four million ($4,000,000) Dollars (the “Maximum Advance”), it being agreed that Seller may request increases in the Maximum Advance of up to $1,000,000 each 90 days after the commencement date hereunder, up to a Maximum Advance of not greater than $8,000,000. Each requested increase to the Maximum Advance shall be subject to AEC’s approval. Advance rates referred to herein are contingent upon, among other things, dilution of Accounts remaining below 1.5%, provision by each Account Debtor, with respect to each Account, a satisfactory estoppel & no-offset letter and sufficient Credit Insurance. Eligible invoices and Accounts shall exclude, among other things, invoices that are 90 days or more past their date of issuance, Accounts from obligors whose invoices, in the aggregate, include 25% or more of invoices that are 90 days’ past issuance date, non credit-insured obligations and such other categories of ineligible invoices as AEC may determine.
 
4. RESERVE. AEC will hold in reserve the difference between the Purchase Price and the Advance (the “Reserve”) and, provided there are no outstanding chargebacks or disputes, will pay to Seller, the Reserve, less any sums due AEC hereunder, in not more than one (1) Business Day from the date on which the Accounts have been collected in full in good funds, or have been charged back and/or deemed collected by AEC due to an Account Debtor’s Insolvency (as defined in Section 6). For purposes of this Agreement, the term, “Business Day”, shall mean any day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which national banks are authorized or required to be closed. For all purposes under this Agreement, Clearance Days (defined as 2 banking days) will be added to the date on which Purchaser receives any payment.
 
5. WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATION AND COVENANTS. As an inducement for AEC’s entering into this Agreement and with full knowledge that the truth and accuracy of the warranties, representations and covenants in this Agreement are being relied upon by AEC, instead of the delay of a complete credit investigation, Seller warrants, represents and covenants that:

Notwithstanding the provisions contained in Section 6 of this Agreement, AEC shall have recourse against the Seller in the event that any of the warranties, representations and covenants set forth in this Section 5 are breached.
 
6. NO RECOURSE – CREDIT INSURANCE. AEC shall have no recourse against Seller if payments are not received solely due to the “Insolvency” of an Account Debtor within 90 days of invoice date. For purposes of the foregoing, Insolvency shall be deemed to have occurred, or an Account Debtor or other Person, including, without limitation, Seller and Guarantor, only when: (a) a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding for the relief of an Account Debtor under either Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 shall have been instituted in a United States Bankruptcy Court; (b) a receiver is appointed for the whole or any part of the property of an Account Debtor; (c) an Account Debtor’s assets shall have been sold under a writ of execution or attachments, or a writ of execution shall have been returned unsatisfied; (d) an Account Debtor shall have absconded; or (e) an Account Debtor’s assets shall have been sold under levy by any taxing authority or by a landlord.

Seller, at its sole cost and expense, agrees to procure and maintain, during the life of this Agreement, Credit Insurance covering any Accounts of Seller. The policy must contain a minimum coverage limit totaling the aggregate of the Maximum Advance. Seller will name AEC as a Third-Party Beneficiary of said policy and will provide AEC with a Certificate of Insurance upon demand by AEC and concurrently with the issuance of the policy and any subsequent renewal or reissuance. All insurance policies must be written by a reputable insurance company acceptable to Purchaser or with a current Best’s Insurance Guide Rating of A- and Class VII or better, and authorized to do business in the New York and Florida. The fact that insurance is obtained by Seller will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability or responsibilities of Seller pursuant to any other terms or provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing credit insurance requirement, AEC shall endeavor to include required limits on Account Debtors it its own policy, at Seller’s expense. Upon such inclusion, Seller shall no longer be required to maintain credit insurance until such time as AEC shall notify Seller to the contrary.

7. CHARGE-BACK. In the event that any Account is not paid within 90 days of invoice date for any reason whatsoever (other than as a result of an Account Debtor’s Insolvency), including, without limitation, any alleged defense, counterclaim, offset, dispute or other claim (real or merely asserted) whether arising from or relating to the sale of goods or rendition of services or arising from or relating to any other transaction or occurrence, then in any such event AEC shall have the right to chargeback such Account to Seller. No chargeback shall be deemed a reassignment to Seller of the Account involved. Seller acknowledges that all amounts chargeable to Seller’s account under this Agreement shall be payable by Seller on demand. Upon satisfaction of a chargeback of an Account, and provided there are no other outstanding chargebacks or defaults at such time, AEC shall assign all of its title, rights and interests in and to such Account to Seller, and Seller shall have the right to collect any amount due under such Account. In addition, Seller has the right at any time to repurchase an Account by payment to AEC in the form of either cash or replacement invoices acceptable to AEC. The foregoing notwithstanding, with respect to Chargebacks caused solely by an Account Debtor’s dispute, so long as the dispute involves an amount of less than $50,000, Seller shall have 3 days to resolve such dispute provided that Seller is pursuing such resolution in good faith.
 
Pg 8 of 20

8. NOTICE OF DISPUTE. Seller must immediately notify AEC of any disputes between any Account Debtor and Seller.

9. SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTE. AEC may, at its option, settle any dispute with any Account Debtor. Such settlement does not relieve Seller of any of its obligations under this Agreement. The foregoing notwithstanding, with respect to Chargebacks caused solely by an Account Debtor’s dispute, so long as the dispute involves an amount of less than $50,000, Seller shall have 3 days to resolve such dispute so long as Seller is pursuing such resolution in good faith.

10. SOLE PROPERTY. Once AEC has purchased the Accounts, the payment from Account Debtors relative to the Accounts is the sole property of AEC. Any interference by Seller with this payment will result in civil liability.

11. SECURITY INTEREST; VALIDITY GUARANTY.
 
(a)
As a further inducement for AEC to enter into this Agreement, and as security for the prompt performance, observance and payment of all obligations owing by Seller to AEC, Seller hereby grants to AEC a continuing security interest in and lien upon the following (herein collectively referred to as the “Collateral”): all personal property and Fixtures in which Seller has an interest, now or hereafter existing or acquired, and wheresoever located, tangible or intangible, including, but not limited to, all present or hereafter existing or acquired Accounts, tools, Goods (including, without limitation, all Equipment), Inventory, raw materials, components, packaging, furniture, receivables, security agreements, mechanics liens, notes, bills, acceptances, Instruments, Deposit Accounts, Letter of Credit Rights, installment paper, Chattel Paper, Documents, certificates of deposit, tax refunds, insurance proceeds, Investment Property, Commercial Tort Claims, conditional sale or lease contracts, cash or cash equivalents, chattel mortgages or deeds of trust, General Intangibles, all intellectual property including, without limitation, patents, trademarks and copyrights (and applications for all of the foregoing), contract rights, and all other hypothecation, and promise or duty to pay money, now or hereafter owned or acquired by Seller (including, without limitation, all rights of Seller as an unpaid vendor), and all products, proceeds and collections thereof, all guarantees and other security therefor, and all right, title and interest of Seller in any returned, repossessed, rejected or unshipped goods, together with all of Seller’s books of accounts, ledger cards and records, all vehicles, all computer programs, software and systems owned or operated in connection therewith, all of the above accruing present and future advances and all proceeds, products, returns, add-ons, accessions, replacements and substitutions of and to pay any of the foregoing, and all proceeds of proceeds, and all property of Seller at any time in Purchaser’s possession.

Pg 9 of 20

12. FINANCING STATEMENTS.

In the event a payment belonging to AEC is improperly deposited into Seller’s bank account, AEC reserves the right to impose liquidated damages upon Seller of up to 20% of the amount of any payment so improperly deposited except that no such damages will be imposed in the event that such check or payment was mistakenly received by Seller and such payment is deposited into AEC’s account within 3 Business Days of its receipt.

At the closing hereof, Seller shall pay a Structuring Fee of 1.5% of the Maximum Advance. Upon any increase, within the first 12 months hereunder, of the Maximum Advance, Seller shall pay Purchaser a Structuring Fee equal to 1% of such increase.

27. NEW YORK LAW; VENUE. This Agreement shall be deemed executed in the State of New York and, in all respects shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Any suit, action or proceeding arising hereunder, or the interpretation, performance or breach hereof, shall, if Purchaser so elects, be instituted in any court sitting in New York, in the county of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District (the “Acceptable Forums”). Seller agrees that the Acceptable Forums are convenient to it, and submits to the jurisdiction of the Acceptable Forums and waives any and all objections to jurisdiction or venue.

30. EARLY TERMINATION. In the event that Seller wishes to terminate the Agreement prior to the expiration of the Term, as renewed or otherwise, then in addition to paying AEC all other obligations due under this Agreement, Seller shall also pay AEC an early termination fee equal to the greater of (i) the Monthly Minimum Volume multiplied by the number of calendar months (or part thereof) remaining from the termination date until the end of the then existing Term, or (ii) the average monthly total volume purchased by AEC during the six (6) calendar months (or part thereof if less than six (6) calendar months has elapsed from the effective date of the facility through the termination date) immediately preceding the termination date, multiplied by the number of calendar months (or part thereof) remaining from the termination date until the end of the then existing Term, multiplied by the average number of days outstanding (rounded to the next highest month) multiplied by the greater of the average Factoring Commission over the prior 90 days or the Factoring Commission due hereunder for an invoice paid by its obligor in 30 days.
