Borrower
requires immediate funds, which, in the current economic climate,
it has not been able to obtain in a timely manner from banking
institutions, as interim financing until receipt of the proceeds
which it anticipates receiving from the rights offering which was
approved by Borrower’s Board of Directors on March 26, 2009
and which Borrower expects to proceed as soon as an appropriate SEC
Registration Statement becomes effective (forms are pending before
SEC) (the “ Rights Offering ”); and
|
|
|
Borrower has
requested that Lenders, all of whom already own shares in Borrower
and of whom Lender (1) holds office as CEO and Director of Borrower
and Lender (2) holds office as Director of Borrower and CEO of
Borrower’s US subsidiary, assist Borrower by agreeing to loan
such funds to Borrower in the amount and under the terms set forth
in this Agreement below; and
|
|
|
Each Lender is
willing to make a loan to Borrower, all subject to and in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
|
Therefore, the parties
have made condition and agreed as follows:
|
|
|
Upon the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Lenders agrees to loan
to Borrower the principal amount of $47,000.- (forty-seven thousand
US Dollars) (the “ Loan ”), as
follows:
|
|
|
|
William and
PaiWen Buckley: $25,000;
|
|
|
|
The Loan will
be made available to Borrower within 3 business days of the date
hereof (hereinafter: the “ Loan Date ”), by
means of SWIFT wire transfer to Borrower’s account No.
0605079633 at HSBC Republic Bank, a division of HSBC Bank USA, in
the branch located at 452, Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10018, or to
Borrower’s account No. 703200/66 at Bank Leumi, branch No.
809 in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
|
|
|
|
Borrower shall
pay interest on the entire outstanding balance of the Loan,
commencing as of the Loan Date, at the rate of 6% per annum (the
“ Interest ”).
|
|
|
|
On the
Repayment Date (as defined below), Borrower shall pay Lenders, pari
passu, all of the Interest that has accrued and is outstanding on
the Loan up until that date.

Loan
Agreement: HOMI - Ronnel/Almog/Buckley
|
|
|
|
Borrower shall
repay the entire Loan, with all accrued Interest, in a single, cash
payment to each Lender, pari passu, no later than the 4 month
anniversary of the Loan Date (the “ Repayment Date
”).
|
|
|
|
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, and notwithstanding Lenders’ declaration that,
as at the date hereof, they would prefer for the Loan to be repaid
in cash, the Lenders nevertheless agree that Borrower may elect to
effect repayment of any part, or all, of the Loan and/or accrued
Interest, pari passu to the Lenders, no later than the Repayment
Date, by means of the issue to the Lenders of shares of
Borrower’s common stock. The purchase price of each share so
issued shall be deemed to be the same price per share as in the
Rights Offering (the “ Price Per Share ”), such
that the outstanding balance of the Loan plus accrued Interest
shall be reduced, at the time of issue of such shares, by the
quantity of shares so issued multiplied by the Price Per Share. If,
for example, the Price Per Share is $0.04 and if the Repayment Date
falls exactly on the 4 month anniversary of the Loan Date, and the
outstanding balance of the Loan plus the accrued Interest is
$47,940, then the issue, on that date, of 1,198,500 shares of
Borrower’s common stock, to the order of the Lenders, pro
rata as set forth herein, would constitute full repayment of the
Loan and all accrued Interest.
|
For any sums
that may be payable by a Lender in the Rights Offering, in respect
of shares which such Lender may subscribe for in such Rights
Offering, up to the total amount then owed by Borrower to such
Lender under this Agreement, such Lender, or Borrower, may elect,
by written notice to the other, that such sums be offset against
the outstanding balance of the Loan and accrued Interest then owed
to such Lender.
|
|
|
If Borrower
elects to repay any part of the Loan and/or accrued Interest by
means of the issue of shares as set forth in Section 0 above, then
the shares must be duly issued in Lenders’ names, or to their
order, pari passu, and registered in Lenders’ names, or to
their order, in Borrower’s share register, and duly executed
share certificates must be delivered to Lenders, or to their order,
all no later than the Repayment Date.
|
|
|
|
For avoidance
of any doubt, Borrower undertakes to fully repay the Loan and all
accrued Interest, no later than the Repayment Date, either by means
of a cash payment as set forth in Section 0 above, or by means of a
share issue, as set forth in Sections 0 and 0 above, or by means of
a combination of such cash payment and such share issue, provided
that all such repayments are made for both Lenders, pari
passu.
|
|
|
|
Borrower may at
any time prepay to the Lenders, pari passu, any part of the
outstanding balance of the Loan and accrued Interest, by any of the
methods set forth in Section 0 above.
|
|
|
|
Without
derogating from any statutory remedies and/or other remedies
available under the terms of this Agreement, if Borrower is in
default under this Agreement and does not fully repay the Loan and
accrued Interest in the manner set forth above, no later than the
Repayment Date, then each Lender shall be entitled to elect, by
means of written notice to Borrower, whether repayment of such
Lender’s portion of the outstanding balance of the Loan and
accrued Interest must be made by means of cash payment, or by means
of share issue under the principles outlined above, or by a
combination of these methods, and Borrower undertakes to comply
with such election by each Lender.
|
Without
derogating from any statutory remedies and/or other remedies
available under the terms of this Agreement, any sums not paid by
Borrower at the appointed time under this Agreement shall
be subject to interest at the highest rate of interest
then charged by Bank Leumi of Israel in respect of Dollar sums
overdrawn beyond an agreed credit facility, such interest to accrue
from the date payment was originally due until the date of actual
payment; this interest rate shall initially be determined on the
date payment was originally due, and thereafter monthly until the
date of actual payment. Nothing in this Section 0 may be construed
in any way as derogating from Borrower’s undertaking and
obligation to repay the Loan a
