2/32

These ’General Terms and Conditions’ govern the contractual relationship between:

the naamloze vennootschap (company with limited liability) KBC Commercial Finance, with its registered office in 1080 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, including its legal successors in title, hereinafter referred to as ’COMFIN’.

and

the buyer of one or more products and/or services supplied by COMFIN, hereinafter referred to as the ’CLIENT’.

The provisions specific to each individual agreement are included in special terms and conditions (the ’Special Terms and Conditions’). These provisions state, among other things, the identity of the CLIENT, the applicable products and/or services and the specific terms under which these are made available. The overall agreement (the ’Agreement’) between COMFIN and the CLIENT is therefore governed by these General Terms and Conditions (and its Annexes) and the Special Terms and Conditions.

Any reference in these General Terms and Conditions to Articles refers to articles contained in these General Terms and Conditions.

the total invoice amount (including VAT, if applicable);

3.2.	Notification of the Transfer to the Debtor

The CLIENT will state the transfer text (as provided Annex 2) on its Invoice (original invoice + copies) in a clearly legible manner. This text shall always specify the Debtor Bank Account and shall expressly state that solely this account can be used to make legally valid payments that will relieve the payer of any further payment obligations.

c)	COMFIN will be entitled at any time to notify each and all of the Debtors of the overall Transfer by the Client of all its Receivables, as well as of specific Receivables.

b)	This Transfer will be effected using the CFO electronic correspondence system, as provided in this Article and in Annex 3 to these General Terms and Conditions, unless otherwise provided in the Special Terms and Conditions.

Invoices will be listed in a Transfer Form. This Transform Form will be created by CFO in a PDF document that, on transmission, lists both the user code and the time of transmission of the data. The CLIENT guarantees the accuracy of the Transfer Form and can never hold COMFIN liable for the consequences of any errors in the data. The CLIENT fully indemnifies COMFIN against the detrimental effects of such errors.

In the event that the CLIENT, for whatever reason, does not succeed in creating a correct Transfer Form, the CLIENT will grant COMFIN the right to create a manual or electronic Transfer Form itself or to correct an existing Transfer Form, in order to be able to recognize the transferred Invoices accurately and truthfully.

Article 4. Processing in current account (‘C/A’)

4.1.	Creating the C/A

a)	The CLIENT and COMFIN expressly agree to create between them an indivisible C/A, which will hold all receivables and debts of one party to the other, arising from the Agreement or from any other cause. This C/A shall be used for any and all settlement between the CLIENT and COMFIN.

COMFIN can subdivide the C/A into sections for accounting reasons. Besides a C/A in euros, COMFIN can also create one or more C/As in foreign currencies (as authorized under the Special Terms and Conditions). These subdivisions will not affect the C/A created between the parties, leaving it one and indivisible, and shall not, in any event, result in different accounts: any debit and credit balances of these accounts shall be immediately and fully settled against each other.

c)	Invoices in foreign currencies will be settled in the currencies in which they were created, in a subdivision of the C/A in that currency.

d)	COMFIN will be authorized at any time to convert negative balances in a subdivision of the C/A into euros, at the current rate KBC BANK applies that moment. The currency risk inherent to receivables in foreign currencies shall be borne by the CLIENT.

e)	If the foreign currency – for whatever reason – is unavailable to COMFIN and no access can be obtained to the currency in question via KBC Bank, the payment of the Transfer Price and any Advance as provided in Article 7.2 will be postponed to the next day of listed rating.

4.2.	Operation of the C/A

a)	COMFIN shall deduct all that which it owes the CLIENT from all that it is entitled to claim from the CLIENT in the C/A.

b)	If the CLIENT has entered into multiple agreements with COMFIN, the latter shall be authorized to settle any debts and claims arising from such other agreements in the C/A.

The CLIENT can under no circumstances demand any payment from COMFIN, except upon deduction of all COMFIN’s claims against the CLIENT under this Agreement and any other Agreement, after the C/A has been fully cleared to the extent that this C/A displays a positive balance to the credit of the CLIENT.

General Terms and Conditions – KBC COMMERCIAL FINANCE NV

7/32

4.3.	Settlement in the C/A and Statements

a)	Any claims and debts existing between COMFIN and the CLIENT shall be settled each Working Day.

b)	COMFIN makes a Statement available for the CLIENT, in accordance with the periodicity as mentioned in the Special Terms and Conditions.

c)	These Special Terms and Conditions indicate the Client Bank Account to which COMFIN will transfer any amounts payable to the CLIENT, provided there are no legal restrictions.

4.4.	Overrun in the C/A

a)	If the C/A shows an Overrun during a periodic Statement, the CLIENT shall immediately clear this Overrun by making a deposit into COMFIN account ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, quoting Terugstorting overschrijding contractnr. [Clearing overrun of contract number] [……].”

b)	If the Overrun is not cleared within 8 days of the dispatch of a Written Document, the Agreement will be transferred to the Judicial Collection division of COMFIN, and the rules regarding late payment, as specified in Article 5.5, will be applied.

4.5.	Termination of the C/A

The closing balance in the C/A will be calculated and confirmed on termination of the account or on termination of the Agreement in accordance with Article 13.2or 13.3, after all current transactions have been completed and COMFIN has received all the amounts due to it. Any credit balance will be immediately settled.

Any negative balance in the C/A will be immediately due and payable immediately on termination of the Agreement. The C/A will only be terminated after all liabilities arising from the Agreement have been fulfilled, including in the event of a bankruptcy or manifest incapacity of the CLIENT or concurrence between its creditors.

Article 5. Fees & charges payable to COMFIN

5.1.	Factoring Fee

COMFIN charges a Factoring Fee for the services described in the Special Terms and Conditions, consisting of either i) a percentage on the amount of each Invoice at the time of Statement, with the proviso that no Factoring Fee will be charged on credit notes, or ii) a fixed amount for a specific period, if this has been agreed in the Special Terms and Conditions.

b)	The Factoring Fee will be debited from the C/A.

c)	The amount of the Factoring Fee and the method of calculation are provided in the Special Terms and Conditions and are based on three parameters that are likewise provided in the Special Terms and Conditions:

5.3.	Additional Factoring Fee

The CLIENT is liable to pay COMFIN a recurrent Additional Factoring Fee in remuneration of the provided Advance. The Additional Factoring Fee is calculated on the basis of a reference interest rate linked to COMFIN’s Financing Charges (“Basic Interest Rate”) and will be increased by a margin. The calculation is made based upon the number of days elapsed relative to 360 days a year via simple interest calculation. The Basic interest rate and the size of the margin are provided in the Special Terms and Conditions. In case the reference interest rate is lower than 0%, the Basic Interest Rate is maintained at 0% to determine the Additional Factoring Fee. COMFIN can change the Basic Interest Rate in function of the Financing Charges.

b)	Advances via inclusion in the C/A are subject to the following rules:

the Additional Factoring Fee is debited from the C/A on the last Working Day of the month and represents the interest on the Advance entered in the C/A; and

ii.

the Advance via inclusion in the C/A corresponds with the debit balance in the CLIENT’s C/A. COMFIN will report the balance in the C/A upon each Statement.

c)	Any other types of Advances shall be agreed in the Special Terms and Conditions. The Additional Factoring Fee related to these types of Advances will be debited, once the Advance is provided. The amount of this Additional Factoring Fee is determined as described in Article 5.3 a).

5.4.	Other fees

Notwithstanding any additional fees, as agreed in the Special Terms and Conditions, the following fees shall be payable:

a)	A fee (’Start-up fee’) for the start-up of the Agreement. This fee is provided in the Special Terms and Conditions and debited from the C/A upon the first Statement.

b)	If the CLIENT fails to provide the information regarding the identification of a new Debtor, as required in Article 3.4, or fails to do so completely, COMFIN will be authorized to charge an administrative fee provided in the Special Terms and Conditions.

c)	A fee for Increased Costs.

d)	Any exceptional expenses incurred by COMFIN under this Agreement, which may include the following:

any expenses arising from the notification sent by registered letter of the Transfer to the Debtor;

ii.

bank fees relating to national or international payments;

iii.

fees relating to bank account management;

iv.

any fees or taxes that might be imposed in connection with the transactions that form the subject of the Agreement;

expenses related to the Collection of Receivables that are the subject of Contestations and non-Approved Receivables, including any and all costs and reasonable fees for legal assistance. COMFIN will be authorised to provision these costs in the C/A at the start of such Collection.

vi.

expenses incurred by COMFIN as a result of the CLIENT’s failure to satisfy the contractual obligations under the Agreement; or

vii.

in the event of the CLIENT’s bankruptcy: a one- off supplementary administrative fee of 2 500 EUR, by operation of law and without notice of default.

5.5.	Late payment

In the event of late payment by the CLIENT of an Overrun as described in Article 4.4, COMFIN will be authorized to charge damages in the C/A for all collection charges arisen as a result of the CLIENT’s payment arrears (including administrative charges, personnel, collection without intervention of the courts through a bailiff or collection agency, and legal fees), as stated in the reminder to be sent in connection with the Overrun, equivalent to 10% of the amount of the Overrun, subject to a minimum of 125 EUR. This flat-rate calculation does not prejudice the right of COMFIN to charge actual collection charges that are in excess of 10 % of the amount of the Overrun. COMFIN will submit proof to the CLIENT of the collection charges incurred if the CLIENT so requires.

b)	By operation of law and without prior notice of default, Overruns entitle COMFIN to charge debit interest, calculated as provided in Section 5 of Wet Bestrijding Betalingsachterstand Handelstransacties [Control of Payment Arrears in Business Transactions Act] up to the date of full repayment.

All fees provided in this Article will be debited from the C/A.

Article 6. Insolvency Risk

6.1.	Credit Applications

to which it has previously issued Invoices that fall under the scope of the Agreement;

ii.

from which it has effectively received an order; or

iii.

with which it is effectively engaged in negotiations for an order.

If the CLIENT fails to comply with this provision, COMFIN shall be entitled to charge the CLIENT for the additional costs associated with a Credit Application (including administrative fees, etc.).

6.2.	Credit Decisions

a)	The Credit Decision will be communicated using CFO in the form of a PDF document. The date stated on the PDF document will be deemed to be the date of allocation.

d)	Any new Credit Decision relating to a Debtor cancels and replaces the previous Credit Decision, irrespective of the currency in which it was granted.

e)	Credit Limits apply to Receivables that were transferred to COMFIN prior to granting of the Credit Limit, unless otherwise provided in the Special Terms and Conditions. The withdrawal or reduction of a Credit Limit applies to all Receivables arising one day following the withdrawal or reduction.

f)	Credit Limits may be limited in time. If and where appropriate, COMFIN will list the expiry date of the Credit Limit in the Credit Decision.

g)	Credit Decisions made in different currencies than the Receivables commit COMFIN for the amount of the Credit Limit at the rate applicable on the date of the Credit Decision.

The CLIENT undertakes to communicate the Credit Decisions relating to COMFIN neither to Debtors nor to other third parties. The CLIENT acknowledges that COMFIN will not be held liable in any event for any form of loss the CLIENT or any third parties would suffer as a direct or indirect consequence of a Credit Decision. The CLIENT indemnifies COMFIN against any and all loss resulting from recourse initiated by a Debtor or another third party against COMFIN on account of a Credit Decision.

COMFIN may deliver a Credit Decision on the condition precedent that the Debtor accepts a ▇▇▇▇ of exchange. This condition shall be stated on the Credit Decision form as follows: ’solely approved on receipt of an accepted ▇▇▇▇ of exchange a maximum of ... days from the invoice date’. The CLIENT is responsible for obtaining acceptance of the ▇▇▇▇ of exchange; if it fails to do so, the Credit Limit will expire.

If the amount of a Credit Decision relating to a Debtor is exceeded, the portion of the Receivables exceeding the Credit Limit represents an non- Approved Receivable. In that case, the approval is recorded, beginning with the oldest Receivables (based on invoice date) and, if the dates are the same, based on the lowest number of the Invoices.

b)	Any payment effected by a Debtor or any credit note drafted will be charged first for the approved portion before being charged for the non-approved portion.

6.4.	Insolvency Risk Cover of Approved Receivables

a)	If an Approved Receivable remains unpaid on account of the Debtor’s insolvency, COMFIN will be obliged to pay the CLIENT the Transfer Price of the Approved Receivable 100 days following the maturity date of the Receivable in question.

b)	The CLIENT formally undertakes not to request a VAT refund from the VAT administration for Receivables for which COMFIN paid the Transfer Price following the assumption of the Insolvency Risk.

c)	If the non-payment of an Approved Receivable is fully or partially the result of a cause other than Insolvency at the Debtor’s company, COMFIN shall be entitled to Reassign this Receivable. The CLIENT bears the burden of proof.

The following cases are always regarded as being ‘causes other than Insolvency at the Debtor’s company’:

If the non-payment by the Debtor is the result of a war, civil war, insurrection, a statutory moratorium (e.g. statutory obligations to deduct money) or the effect of Belgian or foreign financial or monetary regulations;

ii.

If the Collection of the Receivable is obstructed by an action of any kind by the CLIENT or by the presentation by the Debtor of an exception based on its personal relationships with CLIENT, e.g. the exception of non-compliance or of setoff;

iii.

If the Receivable is the subject of a written or oral Contestation. If the CLIENT manages to furnish the definite proof of the contrary or conceives of a solution to the Contestation within 30 days after the Contestation arose (and within 100 days following the maturity date of the Receivable), COMFIN will not Reassign the Receivable and Article 6.4 a) will apply;

iv.

If the CLIENT fails to furnish the definite proof of the contrary or conceives of a solution to the Contestation within 30 days after the Contestation arose (and within 100 days following the maturity date of the Receivable), COMFIN will Reassign the Receivable, unless legal proceedings or arbitration proceedings were initiated within 100 days following the maturity date of the Receivable. The Transfer Price will be due if and to the extent that a decision is subsequently made in CLIENT’s favour (i.e. suspension of the Insolvency Risk Cover).

if the Debtor is a public body or a government- related company, unless otherwise provided in the Special Terms and Conditions;

if the CLIENT has executed a Delivery based on cash on delivery or on documentary credit, while the Debtor Account displays unpaid Receivables, or

vi.

if the CLIENT fails to satisfy its obligations under Article 8.3 c).

Furthermore, Receivables shall be excluded from the Advance Base in the following cases:

if COMFIN has determined an Advance Limit per Debtor for some or all Debtors. COMFIN will inform the CLIENT in the Statement when such an Advance Limit per Debtor has been exceeded;

ii.

if documents relating to Receivables are missing or incomplete; if Invoices do not correspond to the proposal or the agreement with the Debtor; if signatures are missing, dates do not match, if delivery is effected after the agreed date, if inspection and/or acceptance of the goods by the Debtor is required and COMFIN, for inspection purposes, first wishes to receive a copy of the Invoice, order form or Proof of Delivery, if COMFIN wishes to first receive a written or telephone confirmation of the acceptance by the Debtor or if COMFIN wishes to first inform the Debtor of the Transfer; if the Administration and Collection of Receivables are obstructed by the CLIENT or if the Administration and Collection of the Receivables are not in accordance with the provisions of Article 8.2;

Please note: this list is not exhaustive. The fact that COMFIN does not use some or any of the above-mentioned criteria, even over an extended period of time, does not mean that COMFIN waives the right to use these criteria in the future.

General Terms and Conditions – KBC COMMERCIAL FINANCE NV

12/32

COMFIN reserves the right to adjust the Advance Percentage retroactively and with immediate effect or to suspend the Advance of new Receivables, e.g. in order to examine Receivables and underlying documents, or to refuse the Advance, for example if the financing of COMFIN at KBC Bank were to become temporarily or permanently impossible for whatever reason or if any of the situations listed in Article 13.2 or 13.3 occurs, and the Agreement was terminated.

e)	The Maximum Authorized Financeable Advance is communicated to the CLIENT at each Settlement.

COMFIN will inform the CLIENT of this change by means of a Written Document.

d)	The authorised Dilution will be evaluated periodically with regard to the Dilution established in the previous 3 months.

Article 8. Administration & Collection of the Receivables – Contestations

8.1.	Administration & Collection

a)	Upon receipt of a Transfer Form, COMFIN will facilitate the Administration of the transferred Receivables and of the management of the Debtor Bank Account and Debtor Accounts. COMFIN will on a daily basis settle all payments it receives for Receivables with the CLIENT, in the C/A.

COMFIN will ensure the Collection of transferred Receivables. In so doing, COMFIN will remind the Debtor of a Receivable with due and proper care by means of a regular reminder process if the Invoice remains unpaid on the due date, during the period up to 90 days following the due date. COMFIN can Reassign the Receivable to the CLIENT (unless Approved Receivables are involved), but is not obliged to do so,

8.2.	Administration and/or Collection Mandate

a)	COMFIN can provide the CLIENT with an Administration and/or Collection Mandate, which allows the CLIENT to manage and collect the Receivables in the name of and at the expense of COMFIN, which will remain the owner of the Receivables following the Transfer.

When the CLIENT has been provided an Administration Mandate, the CLIENT will complete this mandate by informing COMFIN at least once per week of the payments received and entered and of the result of the allocation via CFO, along with other transactions relating to the Receivables. The CLIENT will also be responsible for derecognizing non Approved Receivables from the Debtor Accounts. An alternative frequency may be determined in the Special Terms and Conditions.

When the CLIENT has been provided an Collection Mandate, the CLIENT will complete this mandate with due and proper care by collecting the Receivables on the Debtor Bank Account, discharging the Debtor, entering the payment for the appropriate Debtor Account, and allocating it to the corresponding Invoices. All payments received must initially be settled against any costs, charges and interest payable and subsequently against the principal payable. The CLIENT must demand payment from Debtors that have not paid their Invoices on the due date several times in writing and by telephone, including a notice of default sent by registered letter, no later than on the 60th day following the due date of the Invoice. The CLIENT shall at all times demand that the Debtor pays to the Debtor Bank Account and, in so doing, will use the Collection Proceedings enclosed in Annex 4.

COMFIN can revoke these mandates at any time and with immediate effect without being required to provide reasons for such revocation, by means of a Written Document addressed to the CLIENT e.g. if it believes this is necessary either for Collection of the transferred Receivables, or for the effective management of the Insolvency Risk it has assumed, if the Average Payment Term increases excessively, as well as in the situations provided in Article 13.2 or 13.3. As soon as one of the aforementioned mandates have been revoked, COMFIN will be authorized to inform the Debtor(s) of the Transfer and to collect and manage the Receivables itself, at the CLIENT’s expense.

8.3.	Judicial Collection

a)	COMFIN shall be authorized at any time to initiate a procedure of Judicial Collection against a Debtor with overdue Receivables. COMFIN undertakes to inform the CLIENT accordingly in advance and to consult with the CLIENT as efficiently as possible in taking action.

If COMFIN takes advantage of its authorization to initiate Judicial Collection – to which it cannot be compelled – the CLIENT shall, if COMFIN so requires, upon first request provide any and all information and documents deemed relevant, including a copy of all Invoices, of the underlying agreement with the Debtor and of all documents regarding its implementation, of reminder letters and demand letters, payment histories and the like, along with any reasonable explanation and assistance in this context.

If the CLIENT fails to provide this information within a period of 10 Working Days or if this information turns out to be incomplete or not completely accurate, COMFIN reserves the right to suspend the Judicial Collection or to suspend or terminate the Agreement without prior notice (Article 13.3), notwithstanding damages for the demonstrated costs and losses.

e)	The CLIENT shall refrain from effecting Deliveries to Debtors against which COMFIN has initiated a procedure of Judicial Collection without COMFIN’s prior written consent.

8.4.	Contestations

COMFIN is authorized to immediately exclude any Receivable from its services which it believes has given rise to a Contestation and for which, upon first impression, there is a sufficiently serious reason, by means of simple written notification to the CLIENT. COMFIN is not obliged to establish whether the Contestation is grounded. In the event of a Contestation, the CLIENT must immediately inform COMFIN accordingly, including a detailed description of the actual reason, and with reference to documents containing proof. COMFIN shall inform the CLIENT in the same manner if a Debtor should report a Contestation to COMFIN.

b)	The CLIENT shall resolve this Contestation with its Debtor within a period of 30 days after the arisal of the Contestation, and notify COMFIN accordingly.

The CLIENT will take action immediately upon notification by COMFIN of a Contestation and provide COMFIN with information (i.e. order forms, correspondence, contracts, proofs of delivery, etc.). and provide support to COMFIN in relation to the Contestation in order to avoid or control the Contestation, or to appeal it or reach a solution without the intervention of the courts.

Receivables being contested can be collected by COMFIN via the courts, but COMFIN cannot be obliged to do so. As long as the CLIENT is liable to pay COMFIN any amounts or could potentially be liable to pay such amounts, COMFIN will be authorized to collect the Receivable being contested via the courts.

e)	COMFIN is entitled, but not obliged, to Reassign the Receivable if the Contestation is not resolved within the period of 30 days mentioned in b).

8.5.	Bills of exchange

a)	If the CLIENT, in its Terms of Payment, provides the acceptance of a ▇▇▇▇ of exchange or if COMFIN sets the acceptance of a ▇▇▇▇ of exchange by the Debtor as a condition for a Credit Decision pursuant to Article 6.2 i), it is the CLIENT’s duty to create the ▇▇▇▇ of exchange and have it accepted.

b)	The bills of exchange shall always be created to the order of COMFIN or be immediately endorsed to the order of COMFIN. The CLIENT irrevocably mandates COMFIN for the full term of the Agreement to endorse bills of exchange to COMFIN or complete an incomplete endorsement.

Any cheques or bills of exchange the CLIENT would receive from its Debtors for Receivables transferred to COMFIN shall be endorsed and forwarded to COMFIN the same day, unless otherwise provided in the Special Terms and Conditions. The CLIENT irrevocably mandates COMFIN for the full term of the Agreement to endorse all bills of exchange, cheques and similar securities to COMFIN or to complete an incomplete endorsement.

8.7.	Discounts and payment discrepancies

a)	Discounts granted by the CLIENT to its Debtors will be debited by COMFIN and be charged to CLIENT by means of settlement in the C/A.

COMFIN shall only be liable for the direct and foreseeable loss or damage suffered by the CLIENT arising from the total or partial non-performance or non-delivery of execution of the Agreement or services which are subject of the agreement, or for the fact that the performed services don’t answer or lend itself to the intended end of the Agreement, subject to a maximum amount equivalent to 50% of the Factoring Fee paid by the CLIENT for the past twelve months, except for loss or damage due to COMFIN’s fraud or deliberate error.

The Credit Limits will then be automatically reduced by any payment effected by the Debtor, by the amount of any credit note and by any payment under the Insolvency Risk Cover provided by COMFIN.

The Agreement will remain applicable to all previously transferred Receivables until such time as the CLIENT has fulfilled all obligations towards COMFIN.

The expiry of the Agreement results in the expiry of any and all powers or attorney the CLIENT provides to COMFIN under the Agreement.

On termination of the Agreement, the C/A and all its subdivisions will be due and payable according to the provisions of Article 4.5 b).

Section IV: Miscellaneous provisions

Article 15. Amending the Agreement

COMFIN is authorized to amend or supplement these General Terms and Conditions at any time.

In that case, Article 13.2 applies. If the CLIENT fails to respond within the specified term of 10 Working Days, it will be assumed to agree to continuing the Agreement under the new terms and conditions.

Article 16. Export rules

COMFIN complies with all applicable export rules, as promulgated by the European Union, UNO and national legislators. In view of compliance with these rules, COMFIN has drawn up a code of conduct to prevent it from becoming involved in a transaction:

with a party whose registered office is located in a high-risk country or a party that has ties to a country regarded as a high-risk country and of which an updated list will be provided to the CLIENT on request; on the version date of these General Terms and Conditions, this list includes the following countries: Iran, Syria, North Korea, Myanmar, Cuba, Sudan and South Sudan.

ii.

with a person (either an individual or legal entity) included on a sanction list promulgated by Belgium, the European Union, UNO or the United States of America.

iii.

Compliance with this code of conduct may prompt COMFIN not to cooperate in specific transactions initiated by the CLIENT. The CLIENT acknowledges and confirms that it will not hold COMFIN liable for such refusal and that it will cooperate with COMFIN in order to comply with these rules and code of conduct.

Article 17. Transfer

COMFIN shall be authorised to transfer the Agreement in whole or in part, including all or a portion of its rights and obligations, or to solely transfer its title to the receivables of the CLIENT, pledge them or provide them as security for the benefit of a third party. The CLIENT agrees to the above, and agrees in advance to cooperate fully if required.

Without COMFIN’s prior written consent, the CLIENT shall not be authorised to transfer the Agreement (its rights and/or obligations) under the Agreement in whole or in part under singular title (e.g. purchase/sale and donation) or under universal title (e.g. acquisitions, mergers and demergers), or to pledge them or provide them as security for a third party in any manner whatsoever.

General Terms and Conditions – KBC COMMERCIAL FINANCE NV

Article 18. Insurance and securities

18.1.

Insurance

The CLIENT undertakes to insure its business and all assets with due and proper care against the customary risks and to pay the premiums owed in a timely manner. It shall provide COMFIN upon first request with copies of the insurance contracts and with proof of premium payments. COMFIN is authorised, without being obliged, to pay the insurer insurance premiums owed, including credit insurance premiums, at the expense of the CLIENT, or to enter into these insurance contracts in the name of and at the expense of the CLIENT.

18.2.

Securities

The CLIENT pledges to COMFIN all its current and future Receivables to Debtors for which the transfer of title has not been completed for whatever reason. This pledge will serve as security for all current and future liabilities of the CLIENT to COMFIN under the Agreement, relating to principal, interest and costs.

If COMFIN determines or establishes that the Debtor Portfolio will not, in all likelihood, allow for the recovery of the Advance provided, the CLIENT shall provide security deemed adequate by COMFIN, if the latter so requires, in order to cover this risk. Any associated costs will be borne by the CLIENT.

Article 19. Waiver of rights

The rights granted to COMFIN under the Agreement are cumulative in relation to common law and can be exercised as often, and in the order, as COMFIN deems appropriate. Neither the full or partial non-exercise by COMFIN of any right, nor the delay in such exercise or any other act, omission or silence can be interpreted as any waiver, suspension or amendment of any right, or equated therewith.

No waiver whatsoever of rights and liabilities arising from the Agreement by COMFIN is possible, except in the case of an express written agreement.

Article 20. Evidentiary value

Unless otherwise specified, any announcements, invoices and reminders of any kind whatsoever sent by COMFIN will be deemed to have been received 5 days following the date of the announcement, invoice or reminder. Furthermore, the entry of invoices by COMFIN in the C/A will be deemed to be sufficient proof that these invoices were sent.

The CLIENT acknowledges and accepts that any and all invoices, correspondence and documents originating from COMFIN can be transmitted via electronic mail to the e-mail address provided by the CLIENT in the Special Terms and Conditions. The parties regard the sent message demonstrating that the documents were delivered in the above- mentioned manner as sufficient proof.

The CLIENT acknowledges and accepts that the files held by COMFIN, including, among other things, contracts, contractual documents and correspondence, can be stored electronically. The Parties expressly agree that COMFIN will be entitled to furnish proof of any event, act or commitment whatsoever in relation to the Agreement, irrespective of the nature and value involved and towards any party whatsoever, by means of a copy of the electronically stored original medium. The CLIENT accepts that such copies possess the same full evidentiary value as an original private deed in accordance with the provisions of the Belgian Civil Code, and consequently expressly waives the right to require submission of original documents. The above-mentioned items of proof therefore possess the same evidentiary value as original signed documents.

Copies of COMFIN’s accounts and any account statements and Statements delivered on these bases will be deemed sufficient proof by the parties of the amounts the CLIENT is liable to pay COMFIN, unless proof to the contrary is provided.

Article 21. Objection periods and periods of limitation

The CLIENT shall report any error contained in documents delivered by COMFIN in writing within 10 Working days of receipt. On expiry of this period, the documents delivered will be definitively and irrevocably deemed to be correct and to have been accepted by the CLIENT.

The CLIENT shall report to COMFIN, by registered letter and including details, any contestation relating to a financial amount for which payment is demanded by COMFIN pursuant to the Agreement, subject to forfeiture of rights within 8 days from the date of notification, the invoice date or the date on which the amount became due and payable.

Any claim against COMFIN will expire one year after the date on which the event that gave rise to the claim occurred, or on the date on which the CLIENT was informed of such event, or should reasonably have been deemed to have been informed thereof.

Article 22. Invalidities

The invalidity or non-enforceability of any provision of the Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions. The invalid or unenforceable provision will, if necessary, be replaced with a provision with a similar meaning that, in view of the intention of the parties, matches the invalid or unenforceable provision as closely as possible.

General Terms and Conditions – KBC COMMERCIAL FINANCE NV

21/32

Article 23. Joint and several surety by KBC Bank

KBC Bank NV will act as a joint and several guarantor for all third-party creditors of COMFIN with regard to surety number 2009/00002 dated 22/01/2009 for all COMFIN’s current and future liabilities. In the event of cancellation or termination of the surety, the liabilities outstanding at that time will remain guaranteed.

Article 24. Election of domicile, applicable law and competent court

24.1.

Election of domicile

For the performance of this Agreement and all that arises therefrom, COMFIN chooses as its domicile its registered office; the CLIENT elects as its domicile its place of residence or its registered office, as specified in the Special Terms and Conditions. Notwithstanding any statutory duties of publication, the CLIENT undertakes to report any changes of address to COMFIN personally and in writing.

24.2.

Applicable law and competent court

The Agreement is governed by Belgian law. The application of the UNIDROIT Convention on International Factoring of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ May 1998, shall be excluded. Any contestation in connection with the Agreement falls under the jurisdiction of the courts of Brussels. The designation of the competent courts above is included solely for the purpose of COMFIN.

If the balance of the outstanding Receivables from the Debtor in question is greater than the Advance Limit per Debtor, the difference between the two amounts is added to the Restrictions on Advance Base.

Text of the property reservation which should be submitted, together with your sale conditions, to your clients in the United Kingdom:

Until payment in full to the seller for the goods the goods shall remain the property of the seller.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the risk in the goods and all liability to third parties in respect thereof shall pass to the buyer on delivery.

The buyer shall be entitled to transform the goods or to incorporate them in a new product or products. In that case the seller reserves to himself the legal and equitable title to the final product or products into which the goods are incorporated or mixed. The buyer shall store the final products separately and property of these products shall remain with the seller until full payment will have been made to the seller for the goods.

The buyer may sell the goods in the normal course of its business but on condition that the buyer, in a fiduciary capacity as bailee of the goods, and for so long as he has not fully discharged his debt to the seller, shall hold and pursue claims for the proceeds of their sale equal to the price of the goods for and on behalf of the seller. The buyer shall fully pursue such claims and if necessary shall recover the sums due by legal process. The buyer shall if so required by the seller, allow the seller to conduct in the buyer’s name legal proceedings in respect of the monies due on the sale of the goods. Any sums recovered by the seller as a result of such proceedings (including sums accepted by the seller in settlement thereof whether or not equal to the sums claimed) shall be applied to the payment of the monies due to the seller from the buyer and then to the reasonable costs incurred by the seller in the course of such proceedings. Any balance remaining shall be paid to the buyer.

Prior to the sale of the goods, the buyer shall, so far as reasonably practicable, store the goods separately from similar goods of the buyer, ▇▇▇▇ the goods as the property of the seller and shall not remove, obliterate or in any manner alter any label, ▇▇▇▇ or other means the seller may have of identifying the goods.

COMMITMENTS OF THE CLIENT

5.1

The CLIENT and the User are obliged to carefully preserve the User Code and the password. In particular they should preserve the secretive nature of the User Code and the password by not writing it down anywhere and by not informing anyone of it, with exception of the specific individuals indicated by the CLIENT who fall under the responsibility of the CLIENT.

The CLIENT is obliged to subscribe to an internet provider for the use of a broadband connection of professional quality. Under no circumstance whatsoever can COMFIN be held responsible for the internet provider being in default.

The CLIENT is responsible for the compliance by the User of this annex and the User Guide. The CLIENT commits to enforce these determinations regarding the User.

5.6
