S TAT E M E N T O F FA C T S

2.1. Plaintiff is a corporation engaged in the business of importing,

buying, selling, trading, and marketing of Korean motor vehicles, parts and

accessories. Defendant PP Bus Lines Inc. is a corporation organized to

maintain and operate for hire transportation services by means of buses,

among others in Metro Manila.

2.2. Plaintiffs President, Sungjun Park (Mr. Park), came to know the

representative of PP Bus LInes, Inc. (Defendant Corporation), Paquito D.

Pelipel Jr.(PDP for brevity) through an agent, Mr. Roldan De Leon.

2.2.1. On 11 January 2010, Defendant PDP, along with Mr.

Roldan De Leon,proceeded to meet Mr. Park at the latters office

in Antipolo City. Plaintiffs Secretary, Ms. Baby Jane Venturina and

its General Manager, Mr. Dante Tatacwere present in said

 meeting with Mr. Park. Defendant PDP proposed to buy from

Plaintiff five (5) units of air con bus, two (2) units of Kia Granbird

and three (3) units of Hyundai Aerospace. Defendant PDP

likewise proposed to buy one (1) unit of 10 TON Hyundai truck.

The proposal was made under the pretext that they have on

hand the amount for the down payment and that they would

obtain for their company a bank financing facility from First

Malayan Leasing & Finance Corporation, since Mr. Roldan de Leon

have had previous successful transactions with the said

corporation. Defendant bragged about Defendant corporations

years in the transportation business and spoke of its relative

success.

2.2.2. Plaintiff was induced to enter into a contract of sale

with Defendant PDP based from such representations. Three

letter-quotations dated 11January 20101, were prepared

consisting of the prices, down payment and the balance of

Defendant Corporation over the five buses and truck, which shall

be paid through the financing facility.The terms and conditions

for the payment of the same are here quoted:

a) For the two units of Kia Granbird:

Terms and Conditions:

1) 600, 000. 00 down payment

through their representatives.

2.2.3. Defendant on the same date, through defendant PDP

instantaneously issued the check for the down payment of the

buses and the truck. However, the amounts payable and the

manner of payment under the three letter quotations were not

strictly followed as agreed upon. Defendant Corporation, through

Defendant PDP instead, issued a Banco de Oro check 2 in the

amount of Six Hundred Fifty Thousand Pesos (Php 650,000.00)

applied in this manner as stated in cash/check voucher no. 1165 3

of Plaintiff :

TON truck were taken by Defendant at onceand brought to

Defendants office at Quezon City.

2.3. On 12 January 2010, Defendant Corporation offered to buy another

unit of air con bus from Plaintiff at the formers Office at Antipolo. Defendant

represented that it needed additional number of units of bus that would

respond to the growing demands of its business.

2.3.1. Defendant Corporation conveyed its interest to buy

another unit of Hyundai Aerospace, through Defendant PDP. A

discussion as to the terms and conditions regarding the sale of

the bus was presented through a letter quotation 5 dated 12

January 2010 amounting to a total amount of Php 1,200,000.00.

 2.3.2.Right then and there, Defendant paid the amount of

Php 480,000.00 for the said Hyundai bus by issuing a BDO check 6

payable to cash in the amount of Php 200,000.00 and four (4)

Total: 280,000.00

2.3.3. As Defendant Corporation appeared to be all set on

that day in paying its obligation for the one unit of bus, in a

manner very similar to the first transaction that Defendant is in

good financial position and would certainly pay its obligation as it

is supported by a pending application for bank financing- Plaintiff

gave Defendant immediate possession of the bus and the same

was brought to their Office at Quezon City.

2.4. On 29 January 2010, Defendant once again, through Defendant

PDP under the same representation, offered to buy four (4) more units of

bus: one (1) unit of Hyundai Aerospace and three (3) units of Kia Granbird.

Plaintiff agreed to the offer since Defendant constantly assured Plaintiff of

the awaiting approval of the bank financing. Moreover, Defendant, as usual,

with words and ways indicative of professionalism in dealing with business,

readily issued the checks for the payment of the additional buses.

2.4.1. The total amount for the same is Php 560,000.00 to be

paid in the following manner as stated in a letter quotation 8 dated 29

January 2010:

Terms and Conditions:

- PHp 1,080,000.00 Total Downpayment

by Defendant PDP as initial payment pursuant to the letter

quotation and issued a postdated PNB check 9on 30 March 2010

amounting to one (1) million eighty thousand pesos

(Php1,080,000.00).

2.4.3. Meanwhile, Plaintiff, through its President Mr. Park,

endorsed the check issued by Defendant to its customs broker,

MB Cargo Ventures, through its licensed broker Ms. Mylene Co

Talens. Mr. Mariano Lu, the financier of the licensed broker, in

turn, rediscounted said check.

2.5. Soon after closing the deal, Defendant raised the matter of bank

financing. Defendant PDP disclosed that he made an inquiry as to the real

status of the application, and although it is already under process as

reported, it has not been wholly considered because subject buses are still

registered in the name of Plaintiff. Defendant PDP proposed a scheme which

he believed as the best way to facilitate the proceedings. Defendant

proposed that deeds of sale over the buses must be executed and

transferred in Defendants name. Defendant assured Plaintiff that whatever

deeds of sale that will be executed shall be temporary in nature, until full

payment is given to Plaintiff. Defendant professed that the remedy, shall

definitely expedite the payment of the balance of Defendant to Plaintiff.Also,

Defendant ensured that the credit advice shall be immediately forwarded to

Plaintiff for its own assessment and consideration. In addition to this scheme,

Defendant further proposed that the registration papers of the buses must

likewise be transferred under its name as necessary and indispensable

requirement for the complete approval of the application.

2.5.1 Based on this pretext, Plaintiff agreed verbally to the

proposed scheme of executing the said Deeds of sale to promptly

secure the payment of the entire balance from Defendants.

2.5.2 On 16 March 2010, the Deeds of sale 10 over the five units

of bus were executed in favor of Defendant. Two other Deeds of

sale11 covering the two other units of bus were executed on 17

March 2010. The corresponding Official Registration Receipts

and Certificate of Registration (OR/CSR)12 of the buses made in

the name of Plaintiff were likewise delivered to Defendant on 23

 March 2010, as part of the proposed scheme. Immediately

thereafter, new OR/CRS13 were issued under Defendants name.

2.5.3. An Acknowledgement Receipt 14 was sent to

Defendant PDP dated 29 March 2010 relative to the seven (7)

Deeds of Sale and registration receipts (OR/CSR), unequivocally

stating that said Deeds of sale and receipts were delivered to

Defendant, only to secure approval of bank financing and from

the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory

Board(LTFRB). Further it was stated in such receipt that the

OR/CSR must be immediately returned upon securing approval

from LTFRB and that the Final Deeds of Absolute Sale in favor of

Defendant shall be executed only upon full payment.

2.6. To obtain Plaintiffs full confidence,that the same is still dealing

fairly with Defendant, Defendant issued eighteen (18) post dated

checks (PDCs)15 for the seven units of bus payable in the total amount

Sixteen Pesos (Php7,457,616. 00) at Php 414, 312.00 pesos each.

Defendant likewise informed Plaintiff that the bank financing would be

released favorably in no time. Moreover, to underpin this

representation, Defendant suggested that a Memorandum of

Agreement be executed and signed by both parties.

2.7. However, on 30 March 2010, the check covering the amount

of Php 1,080,000.00 issued as down payment for the last four units of

bus entered into on 29 January 2010 was dishonored due to a Stop

Payment Order (SPO). The said check 16 was stamped Payment

Stopped. Defendant PDP was advised immediately by Plaintiff as to

the fact of dishonor. Defendant failed to give any reason for the stop

payment order. Plaintiff repeatedly demanded the urgent replacement

of the check.

2.7.1. Only after several demands made by Plaintiff that

Defendantcoordinated with Mr. Lu, and offered to make good said

amount of check by initially offering the amount of Php

54,000.00, on a monthly basis, until the full amount of Php

1,080,000 is fully satisfied. Defendant PDP replaced the amount

of the check that bounced, with four (4) checks 17 at Php

250,000.00 payable to the order of Mr. Lu:

encashed upon presentment, the three (3) other checks 18 were

dishonored and stamped DAIF (Drawn Against Insufficient

once, through Mr. Park, paid the amounts involved in the

bounced checks previously issued by Defendant, to clear

itsbrokers credit line, otherwise, its business name will be

prejudiced. The amounts were paid by Plaintiff through one (1)

Banco de Oro check19, processed on line and two (2) Metrobank

checks20 in the total amount of Php 750,000.00 as shown in

check vouchers21 and cash deposit slip prepared by Plaintiff.

Defendant refused to give any explanation as to the fact of

dishonor of the checks.

performance of their legitimate obligation, usedthe ten buses obtained from

Plaintiff under the new registration receiptswithout having paid the balance

under the contract. Defendant likewise refused to return the original OR/CSRs

to Plaintiff after it was able to successfully secure transfer of registration

papers under its name, contrary to what was agreed upon with Plaintiff.

2.9. On 18 May 2010, a demand letter 22 with registry return receipt23

was sent to Defendants at their official business address demanding

compliance with their outstanding obligation, specifically with respect to the

credit advice, which form part of Defendants earlier commitment to the

contract. The demand was unheeded.

2.10. For a long while, Defendant ignored Plaintiffs repeated demands,

until Defendant once again requested that its past due obligation be

negotiated. Defendant falsely disclosed a seeming problem that has been

causing the delay in the approval of the application. Defendant gave an

account that was hardly understandable, that in due course, Defendant

sought for the execution of the three (3) other deeds of sale over the 3 units

of bus.

2.11.Plaintiff,decided to first put into writing the agreement it had with

Defendant for the three transactions. Plaintiff and Defendant Corporation,

through their representatives, Mr. Park and Defendant PDP, executed the

contemplated Memorandum of Agreement (herein referred to as MOA)24

made an integral part hereof as ANNEX ___.

attached herewith and made an integral part hereof as ANNEX ___.

dated 20 May2010 to embody all verbal agreements. The MOA made as its

subject all the ten(10) buses which Defendant Corporation obtained from

Plaintiff since 11 January 2010. The said MOA also embodied the stipulation

between the parties to execute temporary deeds of absolute sale for the

sole purpose of securing approval from Bank Financing to cover the

paymentof the total consideration of the buses Defendant Corporation owed

to Plaintiff. Further it stated that the Final Deed of sale shall only be issued

upon full payment of the contract price. The pertinent portions of the MOA

state:

3. That for the purpose of securing approval from Bank

Financing, the First Party executed a Deed of Absolute Sale for the
aforementioned Hyundai Aerospace and Kia Grasnbird Air Con Bus in
favor of the Second Party;

4. That the said Deed of Sale was executed just and for
securing approval from Bank Financing;

5. That upon full payment of the total contract price for

the aforementioned Air Con Buses,, the First Party shall
execute the Final DEED OF ABSOLUTE SALE in favor of the
SECOND PARTY.

2.12. To reclaim the business confidence that was purportedly lost

brought about by the bouncing of several checks as above-cited, Plaintiff

suggested that a final accounting of its remaining obligation be prepared. Mr.

Park and Defendant PDP, as representatives of Plaintiff and Defendant,

executed another Memorandum of Agreement (herein referred to as

2ndMOA)25 dated 10 June 2010 to embody the stipulations of the earlier MOA

executed, now including the accounting suggested by Defendant: the total

amount of the obligation which Plaintiff owed Defendant in the amount of

attached herewith and made an integral part hereof as ANNEX ___.

Page 13 of 24
Php 12,900,000.00 pesos; the total down payment for the same

amounted to Php 4,602,936.00 pesos in cash; and the balance amounted

to Php 8,297,064.00 pesos payable in a schedule of payment, each

amounting to Php 691,422.00 pesos. Further, it included in the said 2 nd MOA

the remedy of forfeiture of payments made by Defendant in case the

agreement will not materialize through its fault. The obligation to submit the

credit advice from the bank was likewise incorporated in said 2nd MOA.

2.12.1. Defendant PDP, as agreed upon in the MOA that

Defendant Corporation, through Defendant PDP, would pay the

amount of Php 8,297,064.00 pesos payable in a schedule of

payment each amounting to Php 691,422.00 pesos to cover the

remaining balance issued straight away, thirteen (13) UCPB

Plaintiff, such as in issuing the purported checks immediately after the

execution of the 2nd MOA, Plaintiff was enticed and finally persuaded to

execute and issue the much requested Deeds of Absolute Sale 27on 17

July 2010 covering the three buses under the third sale transaction

entered into on 29 January 2010. The issuance of the aforementioned

Deeds of sale was likewise conditioned upon the undertaking expressly

provided for in the MOA.

2.13.1. The corresponding OR/CSR of the three units of bus

were delivered to Defendant who, without delay, had them

transferred under its name28 on 6 August 2010.

2.14. Defendant, contrary to the anticipated result of the most

recent negotiation with Plaintiff, never funded the checks issued as

payment of the balance for all the buses they obtained. The fraudulent

intention and wanton attitude to evade payment and to fully honor

their commitment as written in the MOA became more apparent and

real.

2.14.1. The 6 August and 6 September 2010 checks 29 were

dishonored upon presentment for being drawn against

insufficient funds. A demand letter 30 dated 15 September 2010

was sent to Defendants relative to the fact of dishonor of the two

 checks and demanding the submission of the credit advice that

has become long overdue.

2.15. Clearly, defendant Corporation had no intention to settle

and pay their contractual liabilities. They repeatedly failed to pay their

obligation on maturity dates. The following checks31 bounced as they

became due for being drawn against insufficient funds(DAIF) as

stamped therein:

intention at all to comply with the pertinent provision stated in

the 2ndMOA:

4. Both parties agreed that the SECOND PARTY will
