An intercompany loan agreement, also known as an intracompany loan agreement, outlines the terms and conditions of a loan between one company and another. For example, if a company has short-term financial needs, it may opt for an intercompany loan instead of an outside financing source. Intercompany loan agreements only apply if the loan is between two companies part of a larger organization or group of companies.
Intercompany loan agreements cover terms such as what happens in a default, what is required in terms of reporting and financial statements, and what is expected from the borrower. These agreements may or may not be repayable on demand, and they may or may not be interest-free.

The Loan shall be due and payable as follows:
The entire principal amount of the Loan outstanding after any Permitted Prepayments (as hereinafter defined) shall be due and payable on January 31, 2004 (the “Initial Maturity Date”), provided, however, that the Borrower may at any time on or before January 31, 2004 request a one-year extension to the term of the Loan to January 31, 2005 (the “Deferred Maturity Date”), which the Holder may elect to grant in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event that the Borrower so requests such extension in writing by January 31, 2004, then payment of the principal amount of the Loan shall be automatically deferred until February 28, 2004, and no Event of Default shall deemed to have occurred with respect to the non-payment of the Loan until February 28, 2004.
Interest on the outstanding principal amount shall be due and payable on the Initial Maturity Date. If the Borrower has requested and the Holder has granted a one-year extension of the Loan to the Deferred Maturity Date, interest for such second year of term of the Loan shall be due and payable on the Deferred Maturity Date.
The Borrower shall be entitled to prepay the Loan at any time after March 31, 2003, provided that any prepayment must be made in multiples of ¥25,000,000 (each a “Permitted Prepayment”). Each Permitted Prepayment must be accompanied by interest accrued on the amount tendered for prepayment and a cash penalty for prepayment (“Prepayment Penalty”) calculated as follows: the amount of the Permitted Prepayment multiplied by .0000547945205479452 multiplied by the number of days elapsed from January 31, 2003 to the date the Permitted Prepayment is made. From and after the Initial Maturity Date, no Prepayment Penalty will be due on any payments of principal hereunder. Other than as described in this paragraph, the Loan may not be prepaid prior to the Initial Maturity Date without the prior written consent of the Holder.
All payments hereunder shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to outstanding principal.
No payment of principal or interest shall be required to the extent that such principal and interest is or has been converted into equity securities of the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof.

The Borrower shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock (or such other shares into which this Note shall be convertible), solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Note, such number of its shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note. If at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note then, the Borrower will take such corporate action as in the opinion of its counsel may be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose, including without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder approval.

Upon the request of a holder of a certificate representing any Conversion Shares, the Borrower shall remove the foregoing legend from the certificate or issue to such holder a new certificate therefor free of any transfer legend, if, with such request, the Borrower shall have received either (x) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower to the effect that such legend may be removed from such certificate or (y) if Rule 144 or a substantially similar successor rule remains in force and effect, representations from the Holder that such Holder is not then, and, has not been during the preceding three months, an affiliate of the Borrower and that such Holder has beneficially owned the security (within the meaning of Rule 144) for twelve (12) months or more (or such other period as may then be specified in Rule 144).

The Borrower shall also issue a new Note of like kind upon a partial conversion of this Note pursuant to SECTION 2 above, which such new Note shall be dated the date of such partial conversion and represent the Loan not converted.
