Terms of Our Good Faith
Deposit
(Not Applicable
to Government Transactions)
First Capital's lease proposal requires a small “Good Faith” deposit for us to proceed with our full due diligence which may include some or all of the following: confirming time in business, ownership, trade references, bank references, reviewing the equipment to be leased, the vendor(s), obtaining and analyzing credit bureau reports and/or D&B reports, analysis of financial statements (on larger transactions) and incurring various other administrative expenses on your behalf. You agree to promptly provide all financial data and other information deemed reasonable and necessary by First Capital Equipment Leasing, in a timely manner.
100% of the GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT
is credited |
If we are unable to provide a lease approval under terms substantially the same as those quoted in the proposal, within a maximum of 7 business days from the day we receive: 1) a signed copy of the proposal, 2) all requested documentation and 3) your cleared funds, the Good Faith deposit will be refunded in full (less a $49 administrative fee on transactions UP TO $75,000, OR a $99 administrative fee on transactions GREATER THAN $75,000 (or any transactions submitted under our Commercial Lease criteria).
If we are unable to provide a
lease approval (as above) we may, at that time, offer the option to pursue
an "alternative approval" based on different monthly payments and/or a
modified payment/deposit structure.
Should you grant us permission (orally) to obtain an approval under the "alternate
approval" terms presented at that time, 100% of the previously-received Good
Faith
Deposit will be applied to the first lease payments under the "alternate
approval"
and ALL of the terms described herein shall apply.
Should First Capital be unable to offer an approval or terms as described above due to
material inaccuracies and/or misrepresentation in any of the information
provided, or if the lessee cancels or abandons the application after processing has begun,
or if the lease is approved and is not funded within 30 days DUE TO THE FAULT OF THE
LESSEE, the full Good Faith Deposit amount will be deemed as earned by First
Capital Equipment Leasing Corporation AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF A
BARGAIN, AND NOT AS A PENALTY and there will be no refund.

personal guarantees of all principals (owners with 10% or more ownership).
Payments do not include lease or other documentation fees, filing fees,
