No partial prepayments shall be allowed and any amounts paid by Purchaser in excess of the invoiced amounts shall be applied to future installments. Payments that satisfy (or partially satisfy) future installments do not stop the accrual of the Finance Charge.

3. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES: Purchaser has selected each Unit based upon its own judgment. Purchaser acknowledges that each Unit is of a size, design and type selected by Purchaser and that Seller is not a manufacturer of the Units. SELLER MAKES NO WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THIS CONTRACT OR TO ANY UNIT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, EACH UNIT IS SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS, AND SELLER SPECIFICALLY MAKES NO WARRANTIES AS TO THE QUALITY OF MATERIALS OR WORKMANSHIP OR THE CONFORMITY THEREOF TO THE PROVISIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS OF ANY PURCHASE ORDER OR AGREEMENT RELATING THERETO. SELLER HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, AND PURCHASER HEREBY WAIVES, RELEASES AND RENOUNCES, ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CLAIMS EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY LAW OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO ANY UNIT OR TO THIS CONTRACT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT ANY UNIT IS MERCHANTABLE; (B) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT ANY UNIT IS FIT FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE; (C) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE; (D) ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY, RIGHT, CLAIM OR REMEDY IN TORT; AND (E) ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY, RIGHT, CLAIM OR REMEDY FOR LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO ANY UNIT, FOR LOSS OF USE, REVENUE OR PROFIT WITH RESPECT TO ANY UNIT, FOR ANY LIABILITY OF SELLER TO ANY THIRD PARTY, OR FOR ANY OTHER DIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING STRICT OR ABSOLUTE LIABILITY IN TORT.

Purchaser, at its expense, shall maintain each Unit in good operating order, repair and condition and perform maintenance at least as frequently as stated in any applicable operators guide, service manual, or lubrication and maintenance guide. Purchaser shall not alter any Unit or affix any accessory or equipment to the Unit if doing so will impair its originally intended function or reduce the Units value. Purchaser shall not make any non-reversible addition (as defined for federal income tax purposes) to a Unit without the prior written consent of Seller. All parts which are added to any Unit which (i) are replacement parts, (ii) are essential to the operation of such Unit, or (iii) cannot be detached from such Unit without materially interfering with the operation of such Unit or adversely affecting the value and utility which such Unit would have had without the addition thereof, shall immediately be deemed incorporated in such Unit and subject to the terms of this Contract.

Present values will be determined by discounting at the implicit interest rate of this Contract. Upon making this payment, the obligations with respect to the Unit shall terminate and Purchaser shall be entitled to possession of the Unit and to any recovery in respect to it (subject to the rights of any insurer).
7. WAIVER AND INDEMNITY: Purchaser hereby releases and shall indemnify, defend and keep harmless Seller and any assignee thereof, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (each, an Indemnitee), from and against any and all Claims (as defined below) (other than such as may directly result from the actual, but not imputed, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee), by paying, on a net after-tax basis, or otherwise discharging same, when and as such Claims shall become due. Purchaser agrees that the indemnity provided pursuant to this Section includes the agreement by Purchaser to indemnify each Indemnitee from the consequences of its own simple negligence, whether that negligence is the sole or concurring cause of the Claims, and to further indemnify each such Indemnitee with respect to Claims for which such Indemnitee is strictly liable. Seller shall give Purchaser prompt notice of any Claim hereby indemnified and Purchaser shall be entitled to control the defense of and/or to settle any Claim, in each case, so long as (a) no Event of Default (as defined in Section 9) has occurred and is then continuing, (b) Purchaser confirms, in writing, its unconditional and irrevocable commitment to indemnify each Indemnitee with respect to such Claim, (c) Purchaser is financially capable of satisfying its obligations under this Section, and (d) Seller approves the defense counsel selected by Purchaser.

If any Claim is made against Purchaser or an Indemnitee, the party receiving notice of such Claim shall promptly notify the other, but the failure of the party receiving notice to so notify the other shall not relieve Purchaser of any obligation hereunder. Further, Purchaser agrees to be responsible for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Seller or its directors, officers, employees, agents and assigns in defending such claims or in enforcing this provision. Under no condition or cause of action shall Seller be liable for any loss of actual or anticipated business or profits or any special, indirect or consequential damages.
8.

All insurance shall be in a form and with companies as Seller shall approve, shall specify Seller (and its assignee) as loss payee, shall be primary, without the right of contribution from any other insurance carried by Seller, and shall provide that the insurance may not be canceled or altered so as to affect the interest of Seller without at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Seller. Purchaser shall not make adjustments with insurers except with Sellers prior written consent and hereby irrevocably appoints Seller as Purchasers attorney-in-fact to receive payment of and to endorse all checks, drafts and other documents and to take any other actions necessary to pursue insurance claims and recover payments if Purchaser fails to do so. Purchaser shall promptly notify Seller of any occurrence which may become the basis of a claim and shall provide Seller with all requested pertinent data. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller evidence of such insurance coverage.
9. EVENTS OF DEFAULT: Each of the following constitutes an event of default ( Event of Default ) : (a) Purchaser fails to make any payment when due; (b) any representation or warranty made to Seller in connection with this Contract is incorrect or misleading; (c) Purchaser fails to observe or perform any covenant, agreement or warranty made by Purchaser and the failure continues for ten (10) days after written notice to Purchaser; (d) any default occurs under any other agreement between Purchaser or any guarantor of this Contact and Seller or any affiliate of Seller; (e) Purchaser or any guarantor of this Contract ceases to do business, dies, becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or files any petition or action under any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or moratorium law, or any other law or laws for the relief of, or relating to, debtors; (f) filing of any involuntary petition under any bankruptcy statute against Purchaser or any guarantor of this Contract, or appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or similar official to take possession of the properties of Purchaser or any guarantor of this Contract, unless the petition or appointment ceases to be in effect within thirty (30) days after filing or appointment; (g) there is a material adverse change in Purchasers or guarantors financial condition, business operations or prospects; and/or (h) termination, breach or repudiation of a guaranty obtained by Seller in connection with this Contract.
10. REMEDIES: If an Event of Default occurs, Seller, at its option, may exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a) proceed at law or in equity, to enforce specifically Purchasers performance or to recover damages; (b) declare this Contract in default, and cancel this Contract or otherwise terminate Purchasers right to use the Units and Purchasers other rights, but not its obligations, hereunder; (c) declare all amounts due or to become due under this Contract, excluding any unearned portion of the Finance Charge, immediately due and payable; (d) recover any additional damages and expenses sustained by Seller by reason of the breach of any covenant, representation or warranty contained in this Contract; (e) enforce the security interest granted herein; (f) require Purchaser to assemble the Units and Additional Security and make them available to Seller at a place designated by Seller which is reasonably convenient to both parties; (g) enter any premises where any Unit or Additional Security may be located and take immediate possession thereof and remove (or disable in place) such Unit (and/or any unattached parts) without notice, liability, or legal process; and (h) if Seller financed Purchasers obligations under any extended warranty agreement such as an Equipment Protection Plan, Extended Service Contract, Extended Warranty, Customer Service Agreement, Total Maintenance and Repair Agreement or similar agreement, Seller may cancel such extended warranty agreement on Purchasers behalf and receive the refund of the extended warranty agreement fees that Seller financed but had not received from Purchaser as of the date of Event of Default. Time is of the essence of this Contract. Purchaser agrees to pay all charges, costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys fees (to the extent then permitted by applicable law) incurred by Seller in enforcing this Contract. Seller shall have all rights given to a secured party by law and may retain all monies paid by Purchaser hereunder as compensation for the reasonable use of the Units by Purchaser. Seller may, at its option, undertake commercially reasonable efforts to sell a Unit and Additional Security, and the proceeds of any such sale shall be applied: First, to reimburse Seller for all reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, and selling the Units and Additional Security, including any taxes, charges, costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by Seller; and second, to the extent not previously paid by Purchaser, to pay Seller all amounts then due or accrued under this Contract, including any accelerated payments, late payment charges, and fees. Further, Purchaser agrees that the proceeds received from the sale of each Unit shall be applied first to the outstanding obligations owed under this Contract (as provided above) and, as applicable, any surplus shall be applied to any other existing and future indebtedness or obligations of Purchaser to Seller and/or Sellers affiliates. Purchaser shall promptly pay any deficiency to Seller. Purchaser acknowledges that sales for cash or on credit to a wholesaler, retailer or user of a Unit or Additional Security, with or without the Unit or Additional Security being present at such sale, are all commercially reasonable. To the extent that Purchaser is entitled to a refund from Seller for any reason, Purchaser agrees that Seller shall have the right to offset any obligation that Purchaser has with Seller or Sellers affiliates with such refund, and in the event that a refund is less than or equal to Sellers cost of returning such refund to Purchaser, Seller may retain such refund if no obligation to Seller or Sellers affiliates exists. The remedies provided to Seller shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies at law or in equity. If Purchaser fails to perform any of its obligations under this Contract, Seller may (but need not) at any time thereafter perform such obligation, and the expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Purchaser upon demand.
11. SECURITY INTEREST; PURCHASER ASSURANCES AND REPRESENTATIONS: To secure payment of Purchasers indebtedness to Seller hereunder and the performance of all obligations of Purchaser hereunder, Purchaser hereby grants to Seller a continuing security interest in the Units and in the Additional Security, if any, including all attachments, accessories and optional features therefor (whether or not installed thereon) and all substitutions, replacements, additions and accessions thereto, and proceeds of all the foregoing, including, but not limited to, proceeds in the form of chattel paper to secure the payment of all sums due hereunder. Purchaser will, at its expense, do any act and execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, register and record any documents which Seller deems desirable in its discretion to protect Sellers security interest in the Unit and Sellers rights and benefits under this Contract, including but not limited to having Seller recorded as first lien holder on the Unit title. Purchaser hereby irrevocably appoints Seller as Purchasers Attorney-in-Fact for the signing and filing of such documents and authorizes Seller to delegate these limited powers. Purchaser acknowledges the signature of Seller or said delegatee upon such documents to be the same as Purchasers own for all purposes and with the present intent to authenticate the document.

Guarantor further agrees that its obligations and liabilities for the prompt and punctual payment, performance and satisfaction of Obligors Indebtedness are independent of any agreement or transaction with any third parties and shall be on a joint and several and solidary basis along with Obligor to the same degree and extent as if Guarantor had been and/or will be a co borrower, co principal obligor and/or co maker of Obligors Indebtedness. In the event that there is more than one guarantor under this Guaranty, or in the event that there are other guarantors, endorsers, sureties or any other party who may at any time become liable for all or any portion of Obligors Indebtedness (each, an Other Obligor), the provisions hereof shall be read with all grammatical changes thereby rendered necessary and each reference to the Guarantor shall include each and every one of those parties liable for all or any portion of Obligors Indebtedness and each Guarantors obligations and liabilities hereunder shall be on a joint and several and solidary basis along with such Other Obligors.

SECTION 7. Waivers by Guarantor. Guarantor waives, for the benefit of Seller (which waivers shall survive until this Guaranty is released or terminated in writing by Seller): (a) notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty; (b) notice of the existence, creation or incurrence of new and/or additional debt owing from Obligor to Seller; (c) presentment, protest and demand, and notice of protest, demand, nonpayment, nonperformance and dishonor of any and all agreements, notes or other obligations signed, accepted, endorsed or assigned to or by Seller or agreed to between Obligor and Seller; (d) notice of adverse change in Obligors financial condition or any other fact which might materially increase the risk of Guarantor; (e) any and all rights in and notices or demands relating to any Equipment, including without limitation, all rights, notices, advertisements or demands relating, whether directly or indirectly, to the foreclosure, sale or other disposition of any or all such Equipment or the manner of such sale or other disposition; (f) any claim, right or remedy which Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against the Obligor that arises hereunder and/or from the performance by any Other Obligor including, without limitation, any claim, remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, or participation in any claim, right or remedy of Seller against the Obligor or any security which Seller now has or hereafter acquires with respect to the Obligor, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract (express or implied), by statute, under common law or otherwise; (g) notice of any default by Obligor or any other person obligated in any manner for all or any portion of Obligors Indebtedness and notice of any legal proceedings against such parties; (h) any right of contribution from any Other Obligors; (i) notice and hearing as to any prejudgment remedies; (j) any defense which is premised on an alleged lack of consideration of the obligation undertaken by Guarantor, including without limitation, any defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty based upon the timing of execution of this Guaranty and/or that the Guaranty had been executed after the execution date of any agreements evidencing the Indebtedness; (k) all exemptions and homestead laws; (l) any other demands and notices required by law; (m) all setoffs and counterclaims against Seller and/or Obligor; (n) any defense based on the claim that Guarantors liabilities and obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of Obligor; (o) any defense which the Obligor may assert or be able to assert on the underlying Indebtedness or which may be asserted by Guarantor, including but not limited to (i) breach of warranty, (ii) fraud, (iii) statute of frauds, (iv) infancy, (v) statute of limitations, (vi) lender liability, (vii) accord and satisfaction, (viii) payment and/or (ix) usury.
SECTION 8. Enforcement of Guarantors Obligations and Liabilities. Guarantor agrees that, should Seller deem it necessary to file an appropriate collection action to enforce Guarantors obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty, Seller may commence such a civil action against Guarantor without the necessity of first (i) attempting to collect Obligors Indebtedness from Obligor or from any Other Obligor, whether through filing of suit or otherwise, (ii) attempting to exercise any rights Seller may have against any Equipment, whether through re-lease, the filing of an appropriate foreclosure action or otherwise, (iii) including Obligor or any Other Obligor as an additional party defendant in such a collection action against Guarantor, or (iv) pursuing any other remedy in Sellers power or to mitigate damages. If there is more than one guarantor under this Guaranty, each Guarantor additionally agrees that Seller may file an appropriate collection and/or enforcement action against any one or more of them, without impairing the rights of Seller against any other guarantor under this Guaranty.
SECTION 9. Construction. This writing is intended as a final expression of this Guaranty agreement and is a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of that agreement, provided however, that the provisions of this Guaranty shall be in addition to and cumulative of, and not in substitution, novation or discharge of, any and all prior or contemporaneous written guaranties or other written agreements by Guarantor (or any one or more of them), in favor of Seller or assigned to Seller by others, all of which shall be construed as complementing each other. Nothing herein contained shall prevent Seller from enforcing any and all such other guaranties or agreements in accordance with their respective terms.
SECTION 10. Successors and Assigns Bound. Guarantors obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty shall be binding upon Guarantors successors, heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors and assigns. Seller may assign this Guaranty and any and all rights and interests included herein in Sellers sole discretion without notice to Guarantor and the rights and remedies granted to Seller under this Guaranty shall also inure to the benefit of Sellers successors and assigns, as well as to any and all subsequent holder or holders of any of Obligors Indebtedness subject to this Guaranty, without setoff, counterclaim, reduction, recoupment, abatement, deduction or defense based on any claim Guarantor may have against Seller, such successors and assigns or subsequent holders of Obligors Indebtedness. Guarantor shall not assign this Guaranty without the prior written consent of Seller.
SECTION 11. Termination. This Guaranty is irrevocable and may be terminated only as to indebtedness created sixty (60) days after actual receipt by Seller of written notice of termination hereof, provided however, that all Indebtedness incurred, created or arising pursuant to a commitment of Seller made prior to the effective date of such termination (the Termination Date) and any extensions, renewals or modifications of such Indebtedness (including without limitation loan and/or other commitments) agreed to or instituted by Seller prior to the Termination Date shall not be effected by such revocation and shall be deemed to have been incurred prior to termination (irrespective of whether Indebtedness arising thereunder occurs after the Termination Date) and shall be fully covered by this Guaranty. Any termination of this Guaranty shall be ineffective unless upon the Termination Date Guarantor deposits with Seller collateral in the form of cash in an amount not less than the amount of the Indebtedness outstanding on the Termination Date. Such cash shall be held by Seller in a separate account and shall be returned to Guarantor upon the full and indefeasible payment of all of the Indebtedness.
SECTION 12. Governing Law; Waiver of Jury. This Guaranty shall be construed liberally in favor of Seller and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the state of Sellers office specified above or the state of Sellers successors and assigns principal place of business without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

Mr. Wherry:
Please accept this correspondence as approval of the waiver requested in the attached letter pertaining to the loan agreements between The Goldfield Corporation and Branch Banking and Trust Company and between Southeast Power Corporation and Branch Banking and Trust Company. This waiver would pertain only to extent that it would allow for the transaction described in the attached letter and with the provision that this financing closes prior to July 31, 2012.
This waiver is contingent upon the following:
Closing and funding of the loan between Caterpillar Financial Services and Southeast Power on or prior to July 31, 2012. |
The loan amount is not to exceed a total of $8,250,000 |
The collateral for the loan is to be limited to a specific security interest in the equipment which is being purchased from Ring Power and which is described on the attached schedule A. |
The loan terms are to be essentially the same as those described in the attached letter. |
Any default upon the financing provided by Caterpillar Financial Services would also cause a default in regard to the loan agreements between Branch Banking and Trust Company and The Goldfield Corporation and Southeast Power Corporation. |
It is anticipated that Caterpillar Finance would consider their financing purchase money financing and as such would not require the subordination of our security interest in the collateral they would use to secure their debt. Please note however that the bank would be willing to execute documentation to subordinate our lien position on the newly purchased equipment described in the attached exhibit A upon acceptable review of such documentation by our legal counsel. Southeast Power/Goldfield would be expected to reimburse the bank for any costs associated with such a documentation review.
Please contact me at 321 723 7489 with any questions or concerns regarding this waiver.
Sincerely, |
/s/ Barry Forbes |

Dear Barry:
As previously discussed, Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation has offered to provide approximately $8.23 million in financing for equipment we are purchasing from Ring Power Corporation. Under the terms of this financing arrangement, Caterpillar is providing 100% financing of the total of the Ring Power invoices plus any documentary stamps and fees over a 48 month term at 3.45% Fixed APR. Caterpillar will hold a first lien on all vehicles and equipment (via UCC filing) acquired from Ring Power under this transaction as noted on the attached schedule and The Goldfield Corporation will provide a Corporate Guaranty.
Accordingly, we respectfully request BB&T waive the $500,000.00 debt limitation as written in our three existing loan agreements as follows:
Additional debt not to exceed $500,000.00 in the aggregate at any time
$6.94M Loan Agreement dated 2/22/11 Item 6.2 (e)
$1.5M Loan Agreement dated 4/17/12 Item 6.2 (d)
$5.0M Loan Agreement dated 4/17/12 Item 6.2 (d)
We would appreciate confirmation of these waiver requests in writing on the above referenced loans as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely, |
THE GOLDFIELD CORPORATION |
