8 CCR 1202-11 Part 12 - Requirements for Credit-Sale Contracts

12.1. When a farm products dealer, small-volume farm products dealer, or commodity handler issues a credit-sale contract, the contract must include the following, which is in addition to the requirements in section 35-36-207(1) and 35-36-307(1) C.R.S.:

* The signature of the producer or the owner;

* The signature of the commodity handler or farm products dealer's authorized agent, and

* A completion date, or date payment is due.

12.2. When a farm products dealer or small-volume dealer receives farm products for which payment has not been made, the farm products dealer or small-volume dealer, within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of such farm products, shall provide the producer or owner of the farm products with a credit-sale contract containing the statement: "this contract constitutes a voluntary extension of credit by the owner to the dealer or small-volume dealer. The surety bond or irrevocable letter of credit of the dealer or small-volume dealer may not completely protect the owner from financial loss in the event of a failure of the dealer or small-volume dealer." Such statement shall be conspicuously printed on the first page of the contract, in the same font and font size as the majority of the text in the contract.
12.3. When a commodity handler receives commodities for which payment has not been made, the commodity handler, within thirty (30) calendar days after the receipt of such commodities, shall provide the producer or owner of the commodities with a credit-sale contract containing the statement: "this contract constitutes a voluntary extension of credit by the owner to the commodity handler. The surety bond or irrevocable letter of credit of the commodity handler may not completely protect the owner from financial loss in the event of a failure of the commodity handler." Such statement shall be conspicuously printed on the first page of the contract, in the same font and font size as the majority of the text within the contract.
12.4. A commodity handler issuing credit sale contracts shall maintain positive working capital and a current ratio equal to or greater than one-to-one.
12.5. When a dealer, small-volume dealer, or commodity handler reaches the completion date, or the date payment is due on a credit-sale contract, for which payment has not been made, a new contract shall be entered into.
