Characterization; Granting Clause. (a) If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 2.01(c), any sale or contribution by any Originator to the Purchaser of Receivables, Related Security, Collections and Proceeds hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or contribution, as the case may be, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable Law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties’ intention that each sale and contribution of Receivables, Related Security, Collections and Proceeds hereunder shall constitute a true sale or contribution, respectively, thereof, each Originator hereby grants to the Purchaser a duly perfected security interest in all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, whether now existing or hereafter arising, in and to (i) (A) the Receivables originated by such Originator, (B) all Related Security with respect thereto, and (C) all Collections, (ii) with respect to all Reassigned Receivables of such Originator, all Collections subsequently received with respect thereto, and (iii) all Proceeds of any of the foregoing, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens thereon. The Purchaser and its assigns shall have as against each Originator, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable Law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. Each Originator hereby authorizes Purchaser (or any of its assigns), as secured party, within the meaning of Section 9-509 of any applicable enactment of the UCC, to file, without further authorization by such Originator, as debtor, the UCC financing statements contemplated hereby. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the transactions hereunder are not true sales or contributions, each of the Purchaser and each Originator represents and warrants, as to itself, that, each remittance of Collections by such Originator to the Purchaser hereunder will have been made (i) in payment of a debt incurred by such Originator in the ordinary course of such Originator’s and the Purchaser’s business or financial affairs and (ii) made in the ordinary course of such Originator’s and the Purchaser’s business or financial affairs.
