Consent(Required) By clicking here, I state that I have read and understood the terms and conditions.
From time to time Broker desires to make referrals to CFP for Leases of Equipment (as such terms are hereafter defined) between lessees and CFP, and CFP desires from time to time to have Broker make said referrals to it subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
In consideration of CFP’ acceptance of such referrals and of Broker’s warranties and representations set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Broker and CFP hereby agree:
DEFINITIONS : The following terms shall have the meaning set forth below:
Equipment : All goods that are leased to a lessee pursuant to a Lease, including all substitutions, replacements, additions and attachments.
Transaction : The leasing or financing of Equipment to a lessee when the leasing or financing of the Equipment results from a referral by Broker, or is arranged by Broker with CFP as Lessor.
Lease : Any written agreement and all related documents in connection therewith, including without limitation all addenda, equipment schedules, financing statements or other writings, pursuant to which CFP has leased personal property or fixtures to an individual, partnership, corporation or other entity (hereinafter “Lessee”) for business purposes and which Lease is arranged by Broker.
ACCEPTANCE OF TRANSACTION REFERRALS : This Agreement shall not obligate CFP to accept transactions referred by Broker nor obligate Broker to refer transactions to CFP.
AUTHORITY OF BROKER : Broker is and shall at all times act as an independent contractor and as such shall have no authority to incur any obligation on behalf of CFP; to make any statements or representations on behalf of CFP; to bind or commit CFP to any transaction; nor to make, alter, or execute any document or agreement on behalf of CFP. Broker shall not represent to any party that Broker is employed by or represents or acts as an agent for CFP. Broker is an independent contractor and no partnership, agency, joint venture or any other similar relationship with CFP exists or is contemplated. Broker shall not accept service of any legal process in any action which may be brought against CFP.
BROKER OBLIGATIONS : With respect to any proposed Transactions referred by Broker to CFP, and at the time of the presentation of such Transactions by Broker to CFP, Broker shall furnish to CFP credit and financial information with respect to a prospective Lessee, together with a complete description of the Equipment and cost thereof, and such other information as may from time to time be requested by CFP.
Rebrokered, Sub-brokered or Super-brokered Transactions : Broker will notify CFP at the time of submission if the transaction is rebrokered (as that term is generally understood in the leasing industry), and list the originating source. Broker acknowledges they have verified the existence and validity of the originating source and will provide that information to CFP if requested.
Split Transaction : A Lease Application shall not be split between various funding sources without full disclosure in advance to CFP. In the event a Lease Application should be for less than the full amount of equipment, Broker warrants that it will disclose such facts to CFP in writing at the time the Lease Application is submitted to CFP.
DOCUMENTATION : All Transactions shall be documented on/with documents provided and/or acceptable by CFP. Any documentation, materials and/or supplies furnished by CFP to Broker shall at all times remain the sole exclusive property of CFP and shall be immediately returned to CFP upon demand.
ACCEPTANCE OF LEASE TRANSACTION : CFP shall have five (5) working days following receipt of any proposed Lease Transaction referred to it by Broker within which to accept or decline the same. During this period of time Broker shall not refer the proposed Lease Transaction to any other equipment finance or leasing company.
EXPENSES OF BROKER : Broker shall be responsible for payment of all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the discharge of any Broker’s obligations hereunder.
COMPENSATION OF BROKER : Upon CFP’ approval, acceptance and funding of a Transaction, Broker shall be paid by CFP, as full compensation for referring the Transaction to CFP, CFP’ standard brokerage fee in accordance with CFP’ then current commission schedule for such transactions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default (as defined in the Lease) arises under the Lease at any time within six (6) months of the Final Acceptance Date (as defined in the Lease), and such Event of Default is not cured within any time allowed under the Lease for cure, then upon notice to Broker of such Event of Default, Broker shall promptly refund and pay to CFP the full amount of the brokerage fee and any other compensation paid by CFP to Broker in connection with the Transaction. Failure to refund and pay CFP consistent with this provision shall constitute a breach and default by Broker under this Agreement.
TERMINATION : This Agreement shall be effective upon execution hereof and shall continue in effect until terminated by either party upon thirty (30) days written notice, except that CFP may, at its option, terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon breach of any term, representation or warranty hereof by Broker. The rights and obligations of the parties hereunder with respect to Transactions originated prior to termination of this Agreement shall survive such termination.
INDEMNITY : Broker shall indemnify and hold CFP harmless from any and all expenses, injury, damage, loss or claims, including reasonable attorney’s fees, which CFP may hereafter incur, pay or suffer as a result of any acts or omissions of Broker, its agents, principals, employees, or representatives. Broker further agrees that any defense that accrues to it may be used by CFP.
BROKER’S WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS ; With respect to all Transactions referred to CFP, Broker represents and warrants that:
