Debt Loans

I have been quoted a rate by a commercial finance consultant company and they are asking for $2500.00 deposit to get the loan started. They say it is partially refundable if loan doesent go through, I don’t have a lawyer, here is the fine print in the contract, if someone could read it and tell me what it means. This is governed by CA law since it is a company in California, also what can I do if I send the deposit and sign the contract with the clauses here and they do not decide to give me back my deposit? Thank you.
