Within the limits of the Lender's Commitment, Borrower may borrow and (subject to Section 4.1(a)) prepay and reborrow under this Section 2.1.
. Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) may request a Loan hereunder by giving notice to Administrator of a proposed borrowing not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such borrowing (or such lesser period of time as Lender may consent); provided that Borrower shall not request, and Lender shall not make, Loans more than once per calendar week. Each such notice (herein called a "Borrowing Request") shall be in the form of Exhibit A (or, if acceptable to Administrator, the information required therein may be given by telephone) and shall include the date and amount of such proposed borrowing. Any Borrowing Request given by Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower.
. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article VII with respect to such Loan and the limitations set forth in Section 2.1, Lender shall make the proceeds of such requested Loan available to Administrator at its office in Atlanta, Georgia in immediately available funds on the proposed date of borrowing. Upon receipt by Administrator of such funds, Administrator will make such funds available to Borrower at such office on such date. Each borrowing shall be on a Business Day and shall be in an amount of at least $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 (or in such other amounts as Lender or Administrator may approve).
. Each request for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.2 shall automatically constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower to Administrator and Lender that on the requested date of such borrowing (a) the representations and warranties contained in Article VIII will be true and correct as of such requested date as though made on such date, (b) no Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing or will result from such borrowing, and (c) after giving effect to such requested borrowing, the aggregate principal balance of the outstanding Loans hereunder will not exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base and the Facility Limit.

(a) Lender or Administrator, on Lender's behalf, shall use reasonable effort to give Borrower not less than 60 days' prior notice of any scheduled termination of the Credit Banks' commitments under the Credit Agreement and shall promptly notify Borrower of any extension thereof,
(b) Not more than 90 days prior to the Liquidity Termination Date in effect from time to time, Borrower may request that Lender or Administrator, on Lender's behalf, seek the Liquidity Banks' consent to extend the Liquidity Termination Date for a period which, when aggregated with the number of days remaining until the existing Liquidity Termination Date would not cause the Liquidity Banks' commitments under the Liquidity Agreement as so extended to exceed 364 days in toto, and
(c) Not more than 90 days prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date in effect from time to time, Borrower may request that Lender consent to extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date for an additional 364-day period.
Administrator shall advise Borrower in writing whether each request made pursuant to the foregoing clause (b) or clause (c) has been granted within thirty (30) days after such request has been made and whether such consent is subject to satisfaction of any conditions precedent. If any such request is not granted within thirty (30) days after such request has been made, the Liquidity Termination Date or Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, as the case may be, shall remain unchanged. If any such request is granted within thirty (30) days after such request has been made, the Liquidity Termination Date or Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, as the case may be, shall be extended as provided in Administrator's written notice upon satisfaction of any conditions precedent specified therein.
. Borrower may, in its sole discretion for any reason upon at least 10 days' notice to Administrator (with a copy to Lender), terminate the Lender's Commitment in whole, or, reduce in part the unused portion of the Facility Limit; provided, however that (a) each such partial reduction will be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 and shall not reduce the Facility Limit below $40,000,000, and (b) in connection therewith Borrower shall comply with Section 3.2(b) and Section 4.1(b).
. Each Loan from Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory grid note (herein, as amended, modified, extended or replaced from time to time, called the "Lender Note") substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit B, with appropriate insertions, payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrator in connection with the Lender Note to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to the Lender Note (or on any continuation of such grid, or at Administrator's option, in its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal of, and the interest rate and Interest Period applicable to the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of Borrower.
. On or before the Closing Date, Borrower will establish the Collection Account and ensure that all available funds from each of the LockBox Accounts are swept on a daily basis into the Collection Account.
. Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full, as follows:
- at all times while the making or maintenance of such Loan (or the applicable portion thereof) by Lender is funded by the issuance of Commercial Paper Notes of Lender, during each Interest Period, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Commercial Paper Rate applicable to such Interest Period, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin;
- at all times while the making or maintenance of such Loan (or the applicable portion thereof) by Lender is funded during each Interest Period pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement or the Voluntary Advance Agreement, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Alternative Rate applicable to such Interest Period, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin; and
- notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding clauses (a) and (b), in the event that a Significant Event or an Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, at a rate per annum (the "Default Rate") equal to the Base Rate applicable from time to time (but not less than the interest rate in effect for such Loan as at the date of such Significant Event), plus a margin of 2.00%. After the date any principal amount of any Loan is due and payable (whether on the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, upon acceleration or otherwise) or after any other monetary Obligation of Borrower arising under this Agreement shall become due and payable, Borrower shall pay (to the extent permitted by law, if in respect of any unpaid amounts representing interest) interest (after as well as before judgment) on such amounts at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. No provision of this Agreement or the Lender Note shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law.
. Interest accrued on each Allocation shall be payable, without duplication:
- on each Scheduled Interest Payment Date prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, for the period since the creation of such Allocation (in the case of the first Scheduled Interest Payment Date thereafter) or since the prior Scheduled Interest Payment Date (in the case of any subsequent Scheduled Interest Payment Date);
- on the date of any payment or prepayment (in whole or in part) of principal outstanding in such Allocation, on the amount paid or prepaid (it being understood that any prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts owing under Section 6.2);

Administrator shall from time to time and in its sole discretion determine whether interest in respect of the Loans then outstanding, or any portion thereof, shall be calculated by reference to the Commercial Paper Rate (such portion being herein called a "CP Allocation") or an Alternative Rate (such portion being herein called an "Alternative Rate Allocation", and together with a CP Allocation individually called an "Allocation", and collectively, "Allocations"); provided, however, that, Administrator shall use its reasonable efforts to allocate all or substantially all of the Loans from Lender to a CP Allocation (it being understood that if Lender is not able to issue sufficient Commercial Paper Notes to fund all of its assets at such time and no Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, Lender and Administrator shall, at least, fund the Loans pro rata with its other non-defaulted assets with Commercial Paper Notes); provided further, however, that Administrator may determine, at any time and in its sole discretion, that the Commercial Paper Rate is unavailable or otherwise not desirable, in which case the Loans from Lender will be allocated to an Alternative Rate Allocation (unless the Default Rate is in effect).
. Borrower agrees to pay Administrator and Lender certain Fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the letter agreement executed in connection herewith between Borrower, Administrator and Lender (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the "Fee Letter").
. All interest, Fees and Servicing Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or Fee is payable over a year comprised of 360 days.
. Borrower shall repay in full the unpaid principal amount of each Loan on the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date. Prior thereto, Borrower:
- may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Loans; provided, however, that, (i) unless otherwise consented to by Administrator, all such voluntary prepayments shall require at least two (2) Business Days' (or, in the case of a voluntary prepayment of $10,000,000 or more, at least seven (7) Business Days') prior written notice to Administrator, (ii) unless otherwise consented to by Administrator, all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000, and (iii) unless and until the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans hereunder is less than 10% of the highest amount ever borrowed hereunder, no such prepayment may be made with any funds other than (A) Collections and (B) the Borrower's initial paid-in cash capital (if any then remains);
- shall, on each date when any reduction in the Facility Limit shall become effective pursuant to Section 2.6, make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans over the Facility Limit as so reduced;
- shall, immediately upon any acceleration of the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date of any Loans pursuant to Section 10.3, repay all Loans, unless, pursuant to Section 10.3(a), only a portion of all Loans is so accelerated, in which event Borrower shall repay the accelerated portion of the Loans; and
- shall, immediately upon discovering that a Borrowing Base Deficit exists, make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficit. Each such prepayment shall be subject to the payment of any amounts required by Section 6.2.
- Application of Collections.
- Application of Certain Payments
- Due Date Extension
- Making of Payments
(a) All Collections deposited in the Collection Account shall be distributed by the Servicer at such times and in the order of priority set forth in this Section 4.2.
(b) On each Distribution Date, prior to payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the Servicer shall distribute from Collections on deposit in the Collection Account on such Distribution Date, if any, the following amounts, without duplication in the following order of priority:
first, to the extent due and owing under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the accrued Servicing Fee payable for the prior Calculation Period (plus, if applicable, the amount of Servicing Fee payable for any prior Calculation Period to the extent such amount has not been distributed to Servicer);
second, interest accrued on the Loans during the period from the most recent Distribution Date to the current Distribution Date (plus, if applicable, the amount of interest on the Loans accrued for any prior period to the extent such amount has not been paid, and to the extent permitted by law, interest thereon);
third, to the extent due and owing under any Transaction Document, all Fees accrued during the prior Calculation Period (plus, if applicable, the amount of Fees accrued for any prior Calculation Period to the extent such amount has not been distributed to Lender or Administrator);
fourth, as a repayment of principal of the Loans, an amount equal to the Borrowing Base Deficit, if any;
fifth, to the extent due and owing under any Transaction Document on such Distribution Date, all other Secured Obligations owed to any Secured Party;
sixth, to the extent due and owing under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on such Distribution Date, all other obligations then payable by Borrower to Administrator or Lender; and
seventh, the balance, if any, to Borrower.
(c) On and after the Commitment Termination Date and the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, the Servicer shall distribute from Collections on deposit in the Collection Account on such Distribution Date, if any, the following amounts, without duplication in the following order of priority:
first, the accrued but unpaid Servicing Fee due and owing on such Distribution Date;
second, all other obligations payable by Borrower under this Agreement due and owing on such Distribution Date; and
third, once all amounts described in clauses first and second above have been paid in full, the balance, if any, to Borrower.
. Each payment of principal of the Loans shall be applied to such Loans as Borrower shall direct or, in the absence of such notice or during the existence of a Significant Event or after the Commitment Termination Date, as Administrator shall determine in its discretion.
. If any payment of principal or interest with respect to any Loan falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next following Business Day, and additional interest shall accrue at the applicable interest rate and be payable for the period of such extension.
. All payments of principal of, or interest on, the Loans and of all Fees, and all amounts to be deposited by Borrower or Servicer hereunder, shall be made by Borrower or Servicer, as applicable, no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time), on the day when due in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds to Bank, as Administrator, Reference: Three Pillars Funding Corporation/Oxford Receivables Company Transaction, Account No. 880171236, ABA No. 000000000, at Bank's office at 00 Xxxx Xxxxx, in Atlanta, Georgia, Attn: Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (the "Administrator's Account"). Funds received by Administrator after 12:00 noon (New York City time), on the date when due, will be deemed to have been received by Administrator on its next following Business Day.
- Borrower hereby assigns and pledges to Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), and hereby grants to Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a security interest in all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the following, whether now or hereafter existing and wherever located:
- This grant of security secures the payment and performance of all Obligations of Borrower now or hereafter existing or arising under, or in connection with, this Loan Agreement, the Lender Note and each other Transaction Document, whether for principal, interest, costs, Fees, Indemnified Amounts, expenses or otherwise (all such Obligations of Borrower being called the "Secured Obligations").
- This grant of security shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall:
(i) all Receivables, Related Security and Receivable Files;
(ii) all of Borrower's rights, remedies, powers and privileges in respect of the Receivables Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, its rights to receive Purchase Price Credits and indemnity payments thereunder;
(iii) the LockBox Accounts and the Collection Account and all funds on deposit therein, together with all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such accounts and funds on deposit; and
(iv) all products and proceeds (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds) of, and additions, improvements and accessions to, and books and records describing or used in connection with, all and any of the property described above (items (i) through (iv) are collectively referred to as the "Collateral").
(i) remain in full force and effect until Administrator's (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) interest in the Collateral shall have been released in accordance with Section 5.4;
(ii) be binding upon Borrower, its successors, transferees and assigns; and
(iii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) hereunder, to the benefit of Administrator and each Secured Party and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.
- Administrator Appointed Attorney-in-Fact
- Administrator May Perform
- Release of Collateral
. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of Borrower and in the name of Borrower or otherwise, from time to time in Administrator's discretion, after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Significant Event to take any action and to execute any instrument which Administrator may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation:
(a) to ask, demand, collect, xxx for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral;
(b) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper, in connection with clause (a) above;

(d) to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the Collateral or any part thereof pursuant to the terms and conditions hereunder; and
(e) to perform the affirmative obligations of Borrower under the Transaction Documents. Administrator agrees to give Borrower and Servicer written notice of the taking of any such action, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the rights, power or authority of Administrator with respect thereto.

. If any change in Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any Regulatory Change, in each case occurring after the date hereof:
(a) shall subject any Affected Party to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to any Loan made or funded by it, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to such Affected Party of the principal of or interest on any Loan owed to or funded by it or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of any Loan made or funded by it (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Affected Party imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Affected Party's principal executive office is located); or
(b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of interest rates pursuant to Section 3.1), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Affected Party;
(c) shall change the amount of capital maintained or required or requested or directed to be maintained by any Affected Party; or
(d) shall impose on any Affected Party any other condition affecting any Loan made or funded by any Affected Party;
and the result of any of the foregoing is or would be to (i) increase the cost to or to impose a cost on (I) an Affected Party funding or making or maintaining any Loan (including extensions of credit under the Liquidity Agreement, the Voluntary Advance Agreement or any Credit Advance, or any commitment of such Affected Party with respect to any of the foregoing), or (II) Administrator for continuing its or Borrower's relationship with Lender, (ii) to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement, the Lender Note, the Liquidity Agreement, the Voluntary Advance Agreement or the Credit Agreement with respect thereto, or (iii) in the good faith determination of such Affected Party, to reduce the rate of return on the capital of an Affected Party as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or under the Liquidity Agreement, the Voluntary Advance Agreement or Credit Agreement, or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which such Affected Party could otherwise have achieved, then after demand by such Affected Party to Borrower (which demand shall be accompanied by a written statement setting forth the basis of such demand), Borrower shall pay such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will (in the reasonable determination of such Affected Party) compensate such Affected Party for such increased cost or such reduction. Such written statement (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof.
. Borrower hereby agrees that upon demand by any Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for the calculations of the amount being claimed), Borrower will indemnify such Affected Party against any net loss or expense which such Affected Party may sustain or incur (including, without limitation, any net loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Affected Party to fund or maintain any Allocation made by Lender to Borrower), as reasonably determined by such Affected Party, as a result of (a) any payment or prepayment (including any mandatory prepayment) of any Allocation on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Allocation, or (b) any failure of Borrower to borrow any Loan on a date specified therefor in a related Borrowing Request. Such written statement shall, in the absence of manifest error, be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof.
(a) All payments made by Borrower hereunder (or by Servicer, on behalf of Borrower, hereunder) shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future Covered Taxes, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority or other taxing authority. If any Covered Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to Administrator or Lender, the amounts so payable to Administrator or Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Administrator or Lender (after payment of all such Covered Taxes) all such amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified herein. Whenever any Covered Taxes are payable by Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, Borrower shall send to Administrator for its own account or for the account of Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by Borrower showing payment thereof. If Borrower fails to pay any Covered Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Administrator the required documentary evidence, Borrower shall indemnify Administrator and Lender for such Covered Taxes and any incremental taxes that may become payable by Administrator or Lender as a result of any such failure.
(b) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which any payments, including discount or Fees, are payable hereunder for the account of Lender, if Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, Lender agrees to deliver to each of Borrower and Administrator two (2) duly completed copies of (i) United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or successor applicable form) certifying that such Lender is entitled to receive payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes or (ii) United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 (or successor applicable form) to establish an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Lender shall replace or update such forms as is necessary or appropriate to maintain any applicable exemption or as is requested by Administrator or Borrower. If Lender does not deliver the forms described in this Section 6.3(b), Borrower or Administrator shall withhold United States federal income taxes from any payments made hereunder at the statutory rate applicable to payments made to Lender. Lender agrees to indemnify and hold Borrower and Administrator harmless for any United States federal income taxes, penalties, interest and other costs and losses incurred or payable by Borrower or Administrator as a result of either (x) Lender's failure to submit any form required to be provided pursuant to this Section 6.3(b) or (y) Borrower's or Administrator's reliance on any form that Lender has provided pursuant to this Section 6.3(b).
. The obligation of Lender to make the initial Loan hereunder is subject to the conditions precedent that Administrator shall have received all of the following, each duly executed and dated the date of such Loan (or such earlier date as shall be satisfactory to Administrator), in form and substance satisfactory to Administrator:
. Certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of Borrower and Originator authorizing or ratifying the execution, delivery and performance, respectively, of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, together with a certified copy of its articles or certificate of incorporation and by-laws.

. (i) Acknowledgment copies of proper financing statements (Form UCC-1), filed on or prior to the date of the initial Loan, naming Borrower as debtor and Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as the secured party as may be necessary or, in the opinion of Administrator, desirable under the UCC to perfect Administrator's (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest in the Collateral, (ii) acknowledgment copies of proper financing statements, filed on or prior to the date of the initial Loan, naming Oxford as seller/debtor, Borrower as purchaser/secured party and Administrator as assignee as may be necessary or, in the opinion of Administrator, desirable under the UCC to perfect Borrower's ownership interest in the Receivables, and (iii) executed copies of proper Uniform Commercial Code Form UCC-3 termination statements, if any, necessary to release all liens and other Adverse Claims of any Person in the Collateral granted by Borrower or Originator.
. A written search report provided to Administrator by a search service acceptable to Administrator listing all effective financing statements that name Borrower or Originator as debtor or assignor and that are filed in the jurisdictions in which filings were made pursuant to Section 7.1.5 above and in such other jurisdictions that Administrator shall reasonably request, together with copies of such financing statements (none of which shall cover any Collateral or interests therein or proceeds of any thereof), and tax and judgment lien search reports from a Person satisfactory to Administrator showing no evidence of such lien filed against Borrower or Originator.
. The Fee Letter, together with all outstanding Fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter.
. (i) Duly executed and delivered counterparts of each of the Receivables Sale Agreement and all documents, agreements and instruments contemplated thereby, and (ii) evidence that each of the conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Receivables Sale Agreement has been satisfied to Administrator's satisfaction, and that the initial assignments and transfers under the Receivables Sale Agreement have been consummated.
. Opinions of counsel to Borrower, Servicer and Originator in form and substance satisfactory to Administrator.
. The Lender Note, duly executed by Borrower.
. A Borrowing Base Certificate, duly executed by an officer of Servicer on Borrower's behalf showing a calculation of the Borrowing Base as of the date of such initial Loan.
. The Lock Box Agreements, duly executed by all of the parties thereto, and the Collection Account Agreement, duly executed by all of the parties thereto.
. Releases and termination statements duly executed by each Person, other than Borrower, that has an interest in the Receivables.
. Such other documents, certificates and opinions as Administrator may request.
. The making of each Loan, including without limitation, the initial Loan, is subject to the conditions precedent that:
(i) No Significant Event, Unmatured Significant Event or Servicer Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or will result from the making of such Loan, (ii) the representations and warranties of Borrower contained in Article VIII are true and correct as of the date of such requested Loan, with the same effect as though made on the date of such Loan, and (iii) after giving effect to such Loan, the aggregate unpaid balance of the Loans will not exceed the Borrowing Base or the Facility Limit. By making a Borrowing Request, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that items (i), (ii) and (iii) in the preceding sentence are true and correct.
Administrator shall have received a Borrowing Request for such Loan in accordance with Section 2.2, together with all items required to be delivered in connection therewith.
. The Commitment Termination Date shall not have occurred.
. Administrator shall have received the most-recent Collateral Review pursuant to Section 9.1.5(c).
. The Collection Account and the LockBox Accounts shall have been established and shall be subject to valid and perfected first priority security interests in favor of Administrator for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
In order to induce Lender and Administrator to enter into this Agreement and, in the case of Lender, to make Loans hereunder, Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Administrator and Lender as to itself as follows, and Servicer hereby represents and warrants to Administrator and Lender as to itself as follows:
. Servicer is a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Georgia. Borrower is a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of [Delaware]. Each of Servicer and Borrower is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, and has and holds all corporate power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where the failure to so qualify or so hold could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
. The execution and delivery by each of Servicer and Borrower of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and Borrower's use of the proceeds of the Loans made hereunder, are within its corporate powers and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Servicer or Borrower is a party has been duly executed and delivered by Servicer or Borrower, as the case may be.
. The execution and delivery by each of Borrower and Servicer of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its Organizational Documents, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on its assets (except as created under the Transaction Documents) except, in any case, where such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and no transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.
. Other than the filing of the financing statements required hereunder, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by Servicer or Borrower of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.
. Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting Borrower, Servicer or any of Servicer's Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making or repayment of any Loans. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, Servicer and its Subsidiaries have no material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the SEC Filings.
. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Servicer or Borrower is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Servicer or Borrower, as the case may be, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
. All information heretofore furnished by Borrower, Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by Borrower, Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, taken as a whole, not misleading.
. Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock, and no proceeds of any Loans, directly or indirectly, will be used for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, Regulations T, U and X promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board from time to time. No portion of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, any other law, rule or regulation applicable to Borrower.
. Borrower (i) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Receivables and (ii) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Related Security with respect thereto or possesses a valid and perfected security interest therein, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Borrower's ownership interest in each such Receivable, its Collections and the Related Security except for Excluded Items.
. This Agreement is effective to create a valid security interest in the Collateral favor of Administrator, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Administrator's security interest, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral (except for Excluded Items). The Collateral is free of any Adverse Claim except as created under the Transaction Documents.
. The principal place of business and chief executive office of each of Borrower and Servicer is located at its address referred to on Schedule 15.3 to this Agreement (or at such other locations, notified to Administrator in jurisdictions where all action required to perfect or maintain the perfection of Administrator's security interest in the Collateral has been taken). Borrower's Federal Employer Identification Number is 00-0000000.
. Borrower represents and warrants that (a) Schedule 8.12 hereto is a complete and accurate listing, as of the Closing Date, of the LockBoxes and LockBox Accounts, (b) each of the LockBox Accounts has been established in, or transferred into, Borrower's name, and (c) each of the banks maintaining a LockBox Account has been instructed to sweep all available cash in such LockBox Account to the Collection Account each Business Day. Neither Servicer nor Borrower has granted any interest in the Collection Account, any LockBox or any LockBox Account to any Person other than Administrator, and Administrator has exclusive control of the Collection Account and the LockBox Accounts.
. Since [December 31, 2000], no event has occurred that could reasonable be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
. The name in which Borrower has executed this Agreement is identical to the name of Borrower as indicated on the public record of the State of [Delaware]. Borrower has not used any corporate name, trade name or assumed name other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement.
. All of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Borrower are owned beneficially and of record by Oxford, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such equity interests are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Borrower. Borrower has no Subsidiaries.
. Neither Borrower nor Servicer is a "holding company" or a "subsidiary holding company" of a "holding company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or any successor statute. Neither Borrower nor Servicer is an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and has not made any change to such Credit and Collection Policy, except such material change as to which Administrator has given its prior written consent.
. Both before and after giving effect to each Loan, Borrower is Solvent.
. Each Receivable included in the Borrowing Base as an Eligible Receivable as of the date of (a) any Borrowing Base Certificate, (c) any Monthly Report or (c) the making of any Loan, is an Eligible Receivable on such date.
. All information heretofore furnished by, or on behalf of, Borrower or Servicer to Administrator or Lender in connection with any Transaction Document, or any transaction contemplated thereby, is true and accurate in every material respect (without omission of any information necessary to prevent such information from being materially misleading).
. Each sale of Receivables by Originator to Borrower shall have been effected under, and in accordance with the terms of, the Receivables Sale Agreement, including the payment by Borrower to Originator of an amount equal to the purchase price therefor as described in the Receivables Sale Agreement, and each such sale shall have been made for "reasonably equivalent value" (as such term is used under Section548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) and not for or on account of "antecedent debt" (as such term is used under Section547 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) owed by Borrower to Originator.
. From the date hereof until the first day, following the Commitment Termination Date, on which all Obligations shall have been finally and fully paid and performed, each of Borrower and Servicer hereby covenants and agrees with Lender and Administrator that as to itself, as follows:
Each of Borrower and Servicer will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders of all governmental authorities (including those which relate to the Receivables).
. Each of Borrower and Servicer will preserve and maintain its existence rights, franchises and privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, and qualify and remain qualified in good standing as a foreign entity in the jurisdiction where its principal place of business and its chief executive office are located and in each other jurisdiction where the failure to preserve and maintain such existence, rights, franchises, privileges and qualifications would have a Material Adverse Effect.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer will timely and fully perform and comply with all provisions, covenants and other promises required to be observed by it under the Receivables and all other agreements related to such Receivables.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer will comply in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer will furnish to Administrator and Lender:
(i) as soon as available, and in any event within 95 days after the end of each year, a copy of the balance sheet of Borrower, in each case, as at the end of such year, together with the related statement of earnings for such year, certified by the chief executive officer, chief financial officer or controller of Borrower (which certification shall state that such balance sheet and statement or earnings fairly present the financial condition and results of operations for such year in accordance with GAAP except for the absence of footnotes), together with a certificate of such officer stating that such officer has obtained no knowledge that a Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, or if, in the opinion of such officer, such a Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, a statement as to the nature thereof;
(ii) as soon as available and in any event within 95 days after the end of each year, a balance sheet of Oxford as of the end of such year and statements of income and retained earnings and of source and application of funds of Oxford, along with consolidating statements, for the period commencing at the end of the previous year and ending with the end of such year, in each case setting forth comparative figures for the previous year, certified without material qualification in a manner satisfactory to Administrator by nationally recognized independent public accountants (it being understood that delivery of Oxford's Form 10-K for such year filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission will satisfy the foregoing requirement); and
(iii) as soon as available and in any event within 50 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, quarterly balance sheets and quarterly statements of source and application of funds and quarterly statements of income and retained earnings of Oxford, certified by the chief executive or financial officer or controller of Oxford (which certification shall state that such balance sheets and statements fairly present the financial condition and results of operations for such fiscal quarter, subject to year-end audit adjustments) (it being understood that delivery of Oxford's Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for such fiscal quarter will satisfy the foregoing requirement), delivery of which balance sheets and statements shall be accompanied by a certificate of such chief financial officer or controller to the effect that no Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing.
(i) On or before Monday of each week after the Closing Date (or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), Servicer shall prepare and deliver to Administrator and Lender a Borrowing Base Certificate as of the last Business Day of the week then most recently ended, signed by an authorized officer of Servicer; and
(ii) On or before the third Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, Servicer shall prepare and deliver to Administrator and Lender a Monthly Report as of the last day of the month then most recently ended, signed by an authorized officer of Servicer.
. As soon as possible but in any event within one (1) Business Day after any officer of Borrower or Servicer becomes aware of the occurrence of a Significant Event or an Unmatured Significant Event, Borrower or Servicer, as the case may be, will deliver to Administrator and Lender an officer's certificate of Borrower setting forth details of such event and the action that Borrower or Servicer, as the case may be, proposes to take with respect thereto.
. Servicer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Administrator, on or before the date that is 95 days after the end of each year, an officer's certificate signed by the president, chief executive officer or any vice president of Servicer, dated as of the last day of the preceding year, stating that (a) a review of the activities of Servicer during the preceding 12-month period and of its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision and (b) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, Servicer has fulfilled its obligations under the Agreement throughout such year and has complied in all respects with the Credit and Collection Policy, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.
. As soon as possible, and in any event within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, and after each semi-annual period thereafter, a report of the independent certified public accountants of Oxford (each such report, a "Collateral Review") which satisfies the requirements set forth on Schedule 9.1.5.
. Promptly, from time to time, such other information, documents, records or reports respecting the Collateral, the Receivables or the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of Borrower or Originator as Administrator may from time to time reasonably request in order to protect the interests of Administrator or Lender under or as contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
. Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans made hereunder solely in connection with the acquisition or funding of Receivables or the repayment of amounts owed under the Subordinated Note in connection therewith.
. Borrower hereby acknowledges that Lender and Administrator are entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in reliance upon Borrower's identity as a legal entity separate from any other Person. Therefore, from and after the date hereof, Borrower shall take all reasonable steps to continue Borrower's identity as a separate legal entity and to make it apparent to third Persons that Borrower is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of any other Person, and is not a division of any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to and consistent with the covenant set forth in Section 9.1.2, Borrower shall take such actions as shall be required in order that:
(a) Borrower will be a limited purpose corporation whose primary activities are restricted in its certificate of incorporation to owning financial assets and financing the acquisition thereof and conducting such other activities as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out its primary activities;
(b) Not less than one member of Borrower's Board of Directors (each, an "Independent Director") shall be an individual who is not, and during the past five (5) years has not been, a director, officer, employee or 5% beneficial owner of the outstanding common stock of any Person or entity beneficially owning any outstanding shares of common stock of Oxford or any Affiliate thereof; provided, however, that an individual shall not be deemed to be ineligible to be an Independent Director solely because such individual serves or has served in the capacity of an "independent director" or similar capacity for special purpose entities formed by Oxford or any of its Affiliates. The certificate of incorporation of Borrower shall provide that (i) the Board of Directors shall not approve, or take any other action to cause the filing of, a voluntary bankruptcy petition with respect to Borrower unless the Independent Directors shall approve the taking of such action in writing prior to the taking of such action, and (ii) such provision cannot be amended without the prior written consent of the Independent Directors;
(c) Any employee, consultant or agent of Borrower will be compensated from funds of Borrower, as appropriate, for services provided to Borrower;
(d) Borrower will allocate and charge fairly and reasonably overhead expenses shared with any other Person. To the extent, if any, that Borrower and any other Person share items of expenses such as legal, auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be allocated to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to the actual use or the value of services rendered; Borrower's operating expenses will not be paid by any other Person except as permitted under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise consented to by Administrator and Lender;
(e) Borrower's books and records will be maintained separately from those of any other Person;
(f) All audited financial statements of any Person that are consolidated to include Borrower will contain detailed notes clearly stating that (A) all of Borrower's assets are owned by Borrower, and (B) Borrower is a separate corporate entity;
(g) Borrower's assets will be maintained in a manner that facilitates their identification and segregation from those of any other Person;
(h) Borrower will strictly observe corporate formalities in its dealings with all other Persons, and funds or other assets of Borrower will not be commingled with those of any other Person;
(i) Borrower shall not, directly or indirectly, be named or enter into an agreement to be named, as a direct or contingent beneficiary or loss payee, under any insurance policy with respect to any amounts payable due to occurrences or events related to any other Person; and
(j) Any Person that renders or otherwise furnishes services to Borrower will be compensated thereby at market rates for such services it renders or otherwise furnishes thereto. Borrower will not hold itself out to be responsible for the debts of any other Person or the decisions or actions respecting the daily business and affairs of any other Person.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer will, and will require Originator to, defend each Receivable against all claims and demands of all Persons at any time claiming the same or any interest therein adverse to Administrator and the Secured Parties.
. At its expense, each of Borrower and Servicer will perform all acts and execute all documents reasonably requested by Administrator at any time to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the title or the security interest of Administrator in the Receivables and the priority thereof. Each of Borrower and Servicer will, at the reasonable request of Administrator, execute and deliver financing statements relating to or covering the Collateral and, where permitted by law, Borrower shall authorize Administrator to file one or more financing statements signed only by Administrator. Borrower shall, and shall cause Originator to, cause its computer records, master data processing records and other books and records relating to the Receivables to be marked, with a legend stating that the Receivables have been sold to Borrower and that the Collateral has been pledged to Administrator for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
. Servicer shall use all reasonable measures to prevent or minimize any loss being realized on a Receivable and shall take all reasonable steps to recover the full amount of such loss. Borrower and Servicer shall, at their own expense, take such steps as are necessary to maintain perfection of the security interest created by each Receivable in the related goods and merchandise subject thereto. Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with prudent servicing procedures, to repossess or otherwise convert the ownership of the goods or merchandise securing any Receivable which becomes a Defaulted Receivable. Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures for servicing the Receivables as would be customary and usual for a prudent servicer under similar circumstances, including using reasonable efforts to realize upon any recourse to the Obligors and selling the goods securing a Receivable at a public or private sale.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer shall permit Lender, Administrator or their duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors to inspect the Receivables, the Receivable Files, Documents and the related accounts, records and computer systems, software and programs used or maintained by Borrower or Servicer at such times as Lender or Administrator may reasonably request. Upon instructions from Lender or Administrator, each of Borrower and Servicer shall release any document in its possession related to any Receivables to Lender or Administrator, as the case may be, or to the Servicer, if requested by Lender or Administrator.
. Each of Borrower and Servicer shall provide such cooperation, information and assistance, and prepare and supply Administrator with such data regarding the performance by the Obligors of their obligations under the Receivables and the performance by Borrower and Servicer of their respective obligations under the Transaction Documents, as may be reasonably requested by Administrator from time to time.
. Servicer shall maintain its facility from which it services the Receivables in its present condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, or such other facility of similar quality, security and safety as Servicer may select from time to time. Servicer shall make all property tax payments, lease payments and all other payments with respect to such facility. Servicer shall (i) ensure that Administrator shall have complete and unrestricted access, at Servicer's expense, to such facility and all computers and other systems relating to the servicing of the Receivables and all persons employed at such facility, (ii) use its best efforts to retain the employees based at such facility to provide assistance to Administrator and (iii) continue to store on a daily basis all back-up files relating to the Receivables and the servicing of the Receivables at Servicer's facilities, or such other storage facility of similar quality, security and safety as Servicer may select from time to time, in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) until the receipt of all Collections in respect of all Receivables or all Receivables have been written off in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.
. Borrower shall not maintain any bank accounts other than the accounts described on Schedule 8.12. Except as set forth in the last sentence of Section 11.2.3(b), neither Borrower nor Servicer shall make, nor will either of them permit Originator to make, any change in its instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to a LockBox. Neither Borrower nor Servicer will, nor will either of them permit Originator to (a) close the Collection Account or (b) add any LockBox Account Bank or Lock Box Account to those listed on Schedule 8.12 unless Administrator shall have consented thereto and received a copy of any new duly executed LockBox Account Agreement. Neither Borrower nor Servicer will, nor will either of them permit Originator to, change any LockBox Account Bank or close any LockBox or LockBox Account unless Administrator shall have received at least thirty (30) days' prior notice of such termination and (i) in the case of a closed LockBox, all applicable Obligors have been notified to make payments to another LockBox that clears through a LockBox Account which is subject to a LockBox Account Agreement, or (ii) in the case of termination of a LockBox Bank or closing of a LockBox Account, a new LockBox Account Agreement is entered into with respect to any new or replacement LockBox Account or LockBox Account Bank.
. From the date hereof until the first day, following the Commitment Termination Date, on which all Obligations shall have been finally and fully paid and performed, each of Borrower and Servicer hereby covenants and agrees as to itself as follows:
. Except pursuant to, or as contemplated by, the Transaction Documents, Borrower shall not sell (and shall not permit Servicer, acting on Borrower's behalf to), assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or create or suffer to exist voluntarily or involuntarily any Adverse Claims upon or with respect to any of its assets, including, without limitation, the Collateral, any interest therein or any right to receive any amount from or in respect thereof.
. Borrower shall not:
(a) be a party to any merger or consolidation, or directly or indirectly purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the assets or any stock of any class of, or any partnership or joint venture interest in, any other Person, except for Permitted Investments, or sell, transfer, assign, convey or lease any of its property and assets (or any interest therein) other than pursuant to, or as contemplated by, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents;
(b) make, incur or suffer to exist an investment in, equity contribution to, loan or advance to, or payment obligation in respect of the deferred purchase price of property from, any other Person, except for Permitted Investments or pursuant to the Transaction Documents;
(c) create any direct or indirect Subsidiary or otherwise acquire direct or indirect ownership of any equity interests in any other Person other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents; or
(d) enter into any transaction with any Affiliate except for the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and other transactions upon fair and reasonable terms materially no less favorable to Borrower than would be obtained in a comparable arm's length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate.
. Borrower will not make any change in the character of its business. Neither Borrower nor Servicer will make any change in the Credit and Collection Policy that could adversely affect the collectibility of any Receivable.
. Borrower will not incur any Debt to any Person other than pursuant to this Agreement, the Receivables Sale Agreement or otherwise in connection with a transaction involving Lender, Bank, any Credit Bank, any Liquidity Bank or any other Persons providing liquidity or credit support to Lender.
. Borrower shall not amend its certificate of incorporation or by-laws.
. Borrower shall not move its chief executive office or permit the documents and records evidencing the Receivables to be moved unless (i) Borrower or Servicer, as the case may be, shall have given to Administrator prior written notice thereof, clearly describing the new location, and (ii) Borrower shall have taken such action, satisfactory to Administrator, to maintain the title or ownership of Borrower and any security interest of Administrator in the Collateral at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. Servicer shall not, in any event, move the location where it conducts the servicing and collection of the Receivables from the address referred to on Schedule 15.3 to this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Administrator, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
. Borrower shall not execute any effective financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration under the laws of any jurisdiction) or statements relating to any Receivables other than the financing statements described in Section 7.1.5.
. Borrower shall not (i) engage in any business other than the acquisition, financing and collection of Receivables and other Collateral, (ii) engage in any transactions or be a party to any documents, agreements or instruments, other than the Transaction Documents and those incidental to the purposes thereof, or (iii) incur any trade payables (other than for professional fees incurred in the ordinary course of business) or other liabilities not constituting Debt permitted under Section 9.2.4 if such the aggregate outstanding balance of such trade payables and other liabilities would at any time exceed $10,700.
. Each of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Agreement:
. Borrower shall fail to make any payment when due of any principal of or interest on any Loan, or payment of any other Obligation payable by Borrower hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, any Fees and Indemnified Amounts, or shall fail to make any deposit required to be made hereunder when due and, in each of the foregoing cases, such failure shall continue for three (3) Business Days.
. Borrower shall:
(a) fail to perform or observe any covenant contained in Section 9.2 of this Agreement and such failure shall remain unremedied for three (3) days after the earlier to occur of (i) Borrower's having knowledge thereof and (ii) Borrower's having received written notice thereof from the Lender or Administrator, or
(b) fail to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on its part to be performed or observed and any such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of (i) Borrower's having knowledge thereof and (ii) Borrower's having received written notice thereof from the Lender or Administrator.
. Any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by Borrower in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document to which Borrower is a party or in any other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made; provided that the materiality threshold in the preceding clause shall not be applicable with respect to any representation or warranty which itself contains a materiality threshold.
. An Event of Bankruptcy shall have occurred and remained continuing with respect to Borrower or Servicer.
. The Internal Revenue Service shall file notice of a lien pursuant to Section6323 of the Internal Revenue Code with regard to any of the assets of Borrower, and such lien shall not have been released within fifteen (15) Business Days.
. Each of the following shall constitute an "Amortization Event" under this Agreement:
. A Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and remained continuing.
. A Borrowing Base Deficit shall exist and such condition shall continue unremedied for three (3) Business Days.
. The Default Ratio shall equal or exceed 1.5% on a rolling three-month average basis.
. The Delinquency Ratio shall equal or exceed 2.5% on a rolling three-month average basis.

. The Accounts Receivable Turnover Ratio shall be less than 6.5 to 1 for any Calculation Period.
. An Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
. (a) Any Transaction Document, or any lien or security interest granted thereunder, shall (except in accordance with its terms), in whole or in part, terminate, cease to be effective or cease to be the legally valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Borrower, Servicer or Originator party to such Transaction Document, (b) Borrower, Originator or Servicer shall, directly or indirectly, contest in any manner such effectiveness, validity, binding nature or enforceability or (c) any security interest securing any Secured Obligation shall, in whole or in part, cease to be a perfected first priority security interest.
. The "Termination Date" under and as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement shall occur.
(a) Optional Termination
. Upon the occurrence of a Significant Event (other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.1.4), Administrator may, and at the request of Lender shall, by notice to Borrower (a copy of which shall be promptly forwarded by Administrator to each Rating Agency), declare all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and other Obligations to be due and payable and/or the Lender's Commitment (if not theretofore terminated) to be terminated by declaring the Commitment Termination Date to have occurred, whereupon the full unpaid amount of such Loans and other Obligations which shall be so declared due and payable shall be and become immediately due and payable, without further notice, demand or presentment, and/or, as the case may be, the Lender's Commitment shall terminate.
(b) Automatic Termination
. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 10.1.4), the Commitment Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred automatically, and all outstanding Loans and all other Obligations shall become immediately and automatically due and payable, all without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind.
(c) Notice to Rating Agencies
. Administrator shall notify each Rating Agency of the occurrence of any continuing Significant Event, promptly following its actual knowledge thereof.
(d) Limitation on Funds Available for Payments
. Unless and until the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans hereunder is less than 10% of the highest amount ever borrowed hereunder, no repayment of the Obligations may be made with any funds other than (A) Collections and (B) the Borrower's initial paid-in cash capital (if any then remains).
. The servicing, administering and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by the Person designated from time to time as Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. Until such time following the occurrence of a Servicer Default or an Amortization Event as Administrator shall notify Oxford and Borrower in writing of the revocation of such power and authority, Borrower, Lender and Administrator hereby appoint Oxford to act as Servicer under the Transaction Documents.
. Borrower hereby appoints Servicer as its agent for the following purposes: (i) selecting the amount of each requested Loan and executing Borrowing Requests on behalf of Borrower, (ii) making transfers among, deposits to and withdrawals from all deposit accounts of Borrower for the purposes described in the Transaction Documents, (iii) arranging payment by Borrower of all Fees, expenses, other Obligations and other amounts payable under the Transaction Documents, (iv) causing the repayment and prepayment of the Loans as required and permitted pursuant to Section 4.1 and (v) executing and preparing the Monthly Reports; provided, however, that Servicer shall act in such capacity only as an agent of Borrower and shall incur thereby no additional obligations with respect to any Loan, and nothing herein shall be deemed to authorize Servicer to take any action as Borrower's agent which Borrower is precluded from taking itself. Borrower irrevocably agrees that (A) it shall be bound by all proper actions taken by Servicer pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (B) Lender, Administrator and the banks holding all deposit accounts of Borrower are entitled to accept submissions, determinations, selections, specifications, transfers, deposits and withdrawal requests, and payments from Servicer on behalf of Borrower.
(a) Servicer shall service and administer the Receivables on behalf of Borrower and Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through subservicers as provided in Section 11.2.2(c), to do any and all things which it may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration and which are consistent with this Agreement. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Receivable or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner, grant indulgence to any Obligor if, in Servicer's reasonable determination, such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of Borrower or Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties); provided, however, that Servicer may not permit any modification with respect to any Receivable that would reduce the Unpaid Balance (except for actual payments thereof), or extend the due date thereof, except that Servicer may take such actions with respect to Defaulted Receivables if such actions will, in Servicer's reasonable business judgment, maximize the Collections thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer in its own name or in the name of Borrower is hereby authorized and empowered by Borrower when Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment to execute and deliver, on behalf of Borrower, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Receivables.
(b) Servicer shall service and administer the Receivables by employing such procedures (including collection procedures) and degree of care, in each case consistent with applicable law, with the Credit and Collection Policy and with prudent industry standards, as are customarily employed by Servicer in servicing and administering receivables owned or serviced by Servicer comparable to the Receivables. Servicer shall not take any action to impair Administrator's (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest in any Receivable, except to the extent allowed pursuant to this Agreement or required by law.
(c) Servicer may perform any of its duties pursuant to this Agreement, including those delegated to it pursuant to this Agreement, through subservicers appointed by Servicer, provided that such subservicing arrangements may be terminated, at Administrator's discretion, upon the replacement of Oxford as Servicer. Such subservicers may include Affiliates of Servicer. Notwithstanding any such delegation of a duty, Servicer shall remain obligated and liable for the performance of such duty as if Servicer were performing such duty.
(d) Servicer may take such actions as are necessary to discharge its duties as Servicer in accordance with this Agreement, including the power to execute and deliver on behalf of Borrower such instruments and documents as may be customary, necessary or desirable in connection with the performance of Servicer's duties under this Agreement (including consents, waivers and discharges relating to the Receivables).
(e) Servicer shall keep separate records covering the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the identity and collection status of each Receivable purchased by Borrower from Originator and the Purchase Price Credits.
(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Borrower and Servicer shall have established and shall maintain thereafter the following system of collecting and processing Collections of Receivables. The Obligors shall be instructed to make payments of Receivables only by check, draft or money order mailed to a LockBox listed on Schedule 8.12 (such payments, upon receipt in such a LockBox, being referred to herein as "Mail Payments"), or by wire transfer or ACH to a LockBox Account.
(b) On or prior to the Closing Date, Administrator shall have received a LockBox Agreement with respect to each LockBox Account. Servicer's right of access to any LockBox Account shall be revocable at the option of Administrator upon the occurrence of Unmatured Significant Event or Significant Event. In addition, after the occurrence of any Unmatured Significant Event or any Significant Event, Servicer agrees that it shall, upon the written request of Administrator, notify all Obligors under Receivables to make payment thereof to (i) one or more bank accounts and/or post-office boxes designated by Administrator and specified in such notice or (ii) any successor Servicer appointed hereunder.
(c) Servicer shall remove all Mail Payments, or cause all Mail Payments to be removed, from each LockBox by the close of business on each Business Day and deposited into a LockBox Account. Servicer shall process all such Mail Payments, and all wire transfers, ACH payments and other payments on the date received by recording the amount of the payment received from the Obligor and the applicable account or invoice number.
(d) All Collections received by Originator or Servicer in respect of Receivables will, pending remittance to the Collection Account as provided in Section 11.2.4, be held by Originator or Servicer in trust for the exclusive benefit of Administrator, and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Originator or Servicer.
(e) Borrower and Servicer hereby irrevocably waive any right to set-off or otherwise deduct any amount owing by or to them from any Collections received by them prior to remittance thereof in accordance with this Agreement.
(f) In performing its duties and obligations hereunder, Servicer (i) shall not impair the rights of Borrower or Administrator in any Receivable, (ii) shall not amend the terms of any Receivable other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy and this Agreement, (iii) shall not release any goods securing a Receivable from the lien created by such Receivable except as specifically provided for herein, and (iv) shall be entitled to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any goods securing such Receivable. In the event that Servicer shall breach any of its covenants set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 11.2.3(f), Servicer shall pay the Unpaid Balance of each Receivable affected thereby on the Distribution Date following the Calculation Period in which such event occurs. For the purposes of Section 11.7 hereof, Servicer shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 11.2.3(f) unless it shall fail to make such payment with respect to any Receivable affected by Servicer's noncompliance with clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 11.2.3(f).
(g) All payments or other amounts collected or received by Servicer in respect of a Receivable shall be applied to the Unpaid Balance of such Receivable.
(a) On any Business Day, Borrower may withdraw, or permit Servicer to withdraw, funds that are on deposit in the Collection Account, provided that (i) no Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Commitment Termination Date has not occurred, and (iii) after giving effect to such withdrawal, no Borrowing Base Deficit has occurred or will result therefrom and there are funds in the Collection Account at least equal to the interest on the Loans and the Fees accrued through such date.
(b) Prior to 3:00 p.m., New York time, on the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date (a "Deposit Date"): (i) Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account, to the extent not already on deposit therein, an amount equal to, without duplication, the lesser of (A) the sum of (1) the aggregate amount of all Collections received during the immediately preceding Calculation Period, plus (2) the aggregate amounts due from Servicer on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 11.2.3(f) hereof, plus (3) the aggregate amount of Purchase Price Credits, if any, required to be made in cash on such Distribution Date in accordance with the Receivables Sale Agreement, and (B) the amounts due on such Distribution Date pursuant to clauses first through seventh of Section 4.2(b), provided that if a Significant Event or Unmatured Significant Event shall exist on such Distribution Date or the Commitment Termination Date has occurred, then the Servicer shall deposit all of the amounts described in the foregoing clause (A) in the Collection Account on such Deposit Date.
(c) Servicer shall distribute the amounts on deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.2 hereof.
(d) Funds deposited in the Collection Account may be invested by Servicer in Permitted Investments that mature not later than the Business Day next preceding the Distribution Date. All income, gain or losses realized from any such investment shall be credited or debited (as applicable) to the balance of the Collection Account. Servicer shall have no obligation to reimburse the Collection Account for any losses realized by reason of such investments.
. Servicer, as compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee, which shall be payable by Borrower on each Distribution Date from funds on deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.2. Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of the fees and expenses of any subservicer) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.
. Oxford acknowledges that Lender and Administrator have relied on Oxford's agreement to act as Servicer hereunder in their respective decisions to execute and deliver the respective Transaction Documents to which they are parties. In recognition of the foregoing, Oxford agrees not to resign as Servicer voluntarily, except as required by law (as evidenced by the delivery of an outside opinion of counsel to Administrator, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrator), without the prior written consent of Administrator.
. Borrower agrees not to designate any Person other than Oxford as Servicer without the prior written consent of Administrator.
. The authorization of Servicer to act on behalf of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall terminate at the sole discretion of Administrator upon the replacement of Servicer by a successor Servicer selected by Administrator.
. Each of the following shall constitute a "Servicer Event of Default" under this Agreement:
. Servicer shall fail to make any payment or deposit required to be made by it hereunder on the date when due and, in each of the foregoing cases, such failure shall continue for three (3) Business Days.
. Servicer shall fail to perform or observe any other term, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on its part to be performed or observed and any such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days after the earlier to occur of (i) Servicer's having knowledge thereof and (ii) Servicer's having received written notice thereof from the Lender or Administrator.
. Servicer shall delegate any of its duties hereunder, except as expressly permitted in accordance with the terms hereof.
. Any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by Servicer in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document to which Servicer is a party or in any Borrowing Base Certificate, Monthly Report or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made; provided that the materiality threshold in the preceding clause shall not be applicable with respect to any representation or warranty which itself contains a materiality threshold.
. So long as Oxford shall be the Servicer, the Consolidated Tangible Net Worth of Oxford shall be less than or equal to $150,000,000;
. An Event of Bankruptcy shall have occurred and remained continuing with respect to Servicer.
. A final judgment or judgments for the payment of money in excess of $10,700 in the aggregate shall have been rendered against Borrower, or in excess of $5,000,000 in the aggregate shall have been rendered against Servicer, and the same shall have remained unsatisfied and in effect, without stay of execution, for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days after the period for appellate review shall have elapsed.
. Failure of Servicer to pay any Debt in excess of $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount ("Material Debt") when due; or the default by Servicer in the performance of any term, provision or condition contained in any agreement under which any Material Debt was created or is governed, the effect of which is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Material Debt to cause, such Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; or any Material Debt of Servicer shall be declared to be due and payable or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled payment) prior to the date of maturity thereof.
At any time during the continuance of any Servicer Event of Default, Administrator may, in its sole discretion, notify Servicer in writing of the revocation of its appointment as Servicer hereunder. Upon revocation of Servicer's appointment hereunder, Administrator shall appoint a successor Servicer. Servicer agrees that upon receipt of written notification from Administrator of the revocation of Servicer's appointment as Servicer hereunder, Servicer shall upon the written request of Administrator (which request may be contained in the notification of revocation) (i) notify all Obligors under the Receivables to make payment thereof to a bank account(s) or post office box designated by Administrator and specified in such notice, and (ii) pay to Administrator (or its designee) immediately all Collections then held or thereafter received by Servicer or Originator of Receivables, together with all other payment obligations of the Servicer hereunder owing to Lender or Administrator. Servicer shall, at its sole cost and expense, cooperate with and assist the successor Servicer (including, without limitation, providing access to, and transferring, all Receivable Files and all records (including data-processing records) relating thereto (which shall be held in trust for the benefit of the parties hereto in accordance with their respective interests)) and allowing the successor Servicer to use all licenses, hardware or software necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables). Oxford irrevocably agrees to act (if requested to do so) as the data-processing agent for the successor Servicer (in substantially the same manner as Oxford conducted such data-processing functions while it acted as Servicer).
. Lender hereby appoints SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation as its Administrator for purposes of the Transaction Documents and authorizes SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation in such capacity to take such action on its behalf under each Transaction Document and to exercise such powers hereunder and thereunder as are delegated to SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation, as Administrator, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
. Bank and any of its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower, Bank, Servicer, any Obligor, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower, Bank, Servicer, any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation were not Administrator and without any duty to account therefor to Lender.
. Neither Borrower nor Servicer may assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Administrator and Lender. Lender may not assign all or any portion of Lender's Commitment to any Person other than the Liquidity Bank(s) without the prior written consent of Borrower and Administrator. Nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude Lenders from pledging or assigning all or any portion of any Loan or the Lender Note:
(a) to Credit Bank, any Liquidity Bank (or any successor of any thereof by merger, consolidation or otherwise), any Affiliate of Credit Bank or any Liquidity Bank in connection with a draw under the Liquidity Agreement or a Credit Advance (which may then assign all or any portion thereof so assigned or any interest therein to such party or parties as it may choose); or
(b) to any other Person proposed by Lender and consented to by Administrator.
Administrator shall promptly provide notice of any assignment to each Rating Agency. Subject to Section 13.2, all of the aforementioned assignments shall be upon such terms and conditions as Lender and the assignee may mutually agree.
. Lender shall deliver to each assignee an assignment, in such form as Lender and the related assignee may agree, duly executed by Lender, assigning any such Loan to the assignee, and Lender shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the assignee may reasonably request, in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the assignee's right, title and interest in and to such Loan, and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder or under the Lender Note evidencing such Loan.
. Upon the foreclosure of any assignment of any Loans made for security purposes, or upon any other assignment of any Loan from Lender pursuant to this Article XIII, the respective assignee receiving such assignment shall have all of the rights of Lender hereunder to the extent of such assignment with respect to such Loans and all references to Lender in Section 6.1 shall be deemed to apply to such assignee to the extent of such assignment.
. Lender shall provide notice to Borrower of any assignment hereunder by Lender to any assignee. Lender authorizes Administrator to, and Administrator agrees that it shall, endorse the Lender Note to reflect any assignments made pursuant to this Article XIII or otherwise.
. Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Administrator, Lender, Servicer, each Liquidity Bank, each Credit Bank, Bank, each of Bank's Affiliates and each of their respective successors, transferees, participants and assigns and all officers, directors, shareholders, controlling persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing Persons being individually called an "Indemnified Party"), forthwith on demand, on an after-tax basis, from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively called "Indemnified Amounts") awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated thereby, any commingling of funds (whether or not permitted hereunder), or the use of proceeds therefrom by Borrower, including (without limitation) in respect of the funding of any Loan or in respect of any Receivable; excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification, and (b) Excluded Taxes.
. Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, Oxford as Servicer, hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party forthwith on demand, on an after-tax basis, from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts awarded against or incurred by any of them arising from, or related to, the negligence or willful misconduct of Oxford, the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Oxford, or the failure of Oxford to perform its obligations under any Transaction Document; excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party, (b) Indemnified Amounts to the extent solely due to non-payment by any Obligor of an amount due and payable with respect to a Receivable for credit reasons, and (c) any tax upon or measured by net income on any Indemnified Party. Anything contained in this Section 14.2 to the contrary notwithstanding: (1) the foregoing indemnification is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guarantee of the collectibility or payment of the Receivables, and (2) nothing in this Section 14.2 shall require the Servicer to indemnify any Indemnified Party for Receivables which are not collected, not paid or are otherwise uncollected on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, lack of creditworthiness or financial inability to pay of the applicable Obligor.
. No failure on the part of Lender, Administrator, any Indemnified Party or any Affected Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Bank, each Credit Bank and each Liquidity Bank is hereby authorized by Borrower at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Bank, such Credit Bank or such Liquidity Bank to or for the credit or the account of Borrower, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, to Administrator, any Affected Party, any Indemnified Party, or Lender or their respective successors and assigns.
No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement and any Schedules hereto, or the Lender Note shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by (i) Borrower, Servicer, Administrator and Lender (with respect to an amendment), or (ii) Administrator and Lender (with respect to a waiver or consent by them) or Servicer or Borrower (with respect to a waiver or consent by them), as the case may be, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no material amendment of this Agreement (other than an amendment to extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date) shall be effective unless the Lender (or Administrator on its behalf) shall have received written confirmation by the Rating Agencies that such amendment shall not cause the rating on the then outstanding Commercial Paper Notes to be downgraded or withdrawn. Administrator shall provide each Rating Agency with a copy of each amendment to or consent or waiver under this Agreement promptly following the effective date thereof.
All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including facsimile communication) and shall be personally delivered or sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, or by facsimile, to the intended party at the address or facsimile number of such party set forth opposite its name on Schedule 15.3 hereto or at such other address or facsimile number as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be effective, (a) if personally delivered, when received, (b) if sent by certified mail, three Business Days after having been deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, (c) if sent by overnight courier, one Business Day after having been given to such courier, and (d) if transmitted by facsimile, when sent, receipt confirmed by telephone or electronic means, except that notices and communications pursuant to Section 2.2 shall not be effective until received.
In addition to its obligations under Section 14.1, Borrower agrees to pay on demand:
(a) all costs and expenses incurred by Administrator, Lender, each Liquidity Bank, each Credit Bank and Servicer in connection with (i) the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of, or any breach of, this Agreement, the Lender Note, the other Transaction Documents, the Liquidity Agreement and, to the extent directly related to this Agreement, the Program Documents (including any amendments or modifications of or supplements to the Program Documents directly related to this Agreement), including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to any of such Persons incurred in connection therewith, (ii) the perfection of Administrator's security interest in the Collateral, (iii) the maintenance of the Collection Account and the LockBox Accounts, (iv) the audit of the books, records and procedures of Originator, Servicer and Borrower by Administrator's auditors (which may be employees of Administrator), and (v) Rating Agency fees related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and
(b) all stamp and other transactional or filing taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement, the Lender Note, the other Transaction Documents, or (to the extent directly related to this Agreement) the Program Documents, and agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees.
. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Bank, Lender, Administrator, and their respective successors and assigns, and the provisions of Article VI and Article XIV shall inure to the benefit of the Affected Parties and the Indemnified Parties, respectively, and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to authorize any assignment not permitted by Article XIII. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time, after the Commitment Termination Date, when all Obligations have been finally and fully paid and performed. The rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made by Borrower or Servicer pursuant to Article VIII and the indemnification and payment provisions of Article XIV and Article VI, Sections 15.4, 15.11 and 15.12 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement and any termination of Oxford's rights to act as Servicer hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.
. The various captions (including, without limitation, the table of contents) in this Agreement are provided solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Agreement to any Section, Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit are to such Section of or Appendix, Schedule or Exhibit to this Agreement, as the case may be, and references in any Section, subsection, or clause to any subsection, clause or subclause are to such subsection, clause or subclause of such Section, subsection or clause.
. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE A CONTRACT MADE UNDER AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION GOVERN THE PERFECTION, OR THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR NONPERFECTION, OF THE SECURITY INTERESTS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR, FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE SECURED PARTIES.
. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which shall constitute together but one and the same agreement.
(a) Each of Borrower and Servicer hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York state court sitting in New York, New York for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of, or relating to, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby. Each of Borrower and Servicer hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent possible, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such proceeding and any claim that any such proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Nothing in this Section 15.10 shall affect the right of Administrator or Lender to bring any action or proceeding against Borrower or Servicer or their respective properties in the courts of other jurisdictions.
(b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT OF TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY MATTER ARISING THEREUNDER.
. The obligations of the Lender under this Agreement are solely the corporate obligations of Lender. No recourse shall be had for any obligation, covenant or agreement (including, without limitation, the payment of any amount owing in respect to this Agreement or the payment of any Fee hereunder or for any other obligation or claim) arising out of or based upon this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or Transaction Document entered into pursuant hereto or in connection herewith against any stockholder, employee, officer, director, manager, administrator, partner or incorporator of Lender, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise.
. Each of the parties hereto hereby agree that it will not institute against Lender, or join any other Person in instituting against Lender, any insolvency proceeding (namely, any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Event of Bankruptcy) so long as any Commercial Paper Notes issued by Lender shall be outstanding and there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such Commercial Paper Notes shall be outstanding. The provisions of this Section 15.12 shall survive the termination hereof.
(a) Unless otherwise consented to by Administrator or required by any applicable law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings, each of Borrower and Servicer hereby agrees that it shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of the Fee Letter and the other confidential or proprietary information with respect to Administrator and Lender and their respective businesses obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that each of Borrower, Servicer and their respective officers and employees may disclose such information to their external accountants, attorneys and other advisors and as required by any applicable law, rule, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceeding (whether or not having the force or effect of law). The restrictions in this Section 15.13(a) shall not apply to any information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by Borrower, Servicer or one of their respective Affiliates.
(b) Each of Borrower and Servicer hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to Administrator, the Liquidity Banks or Lender by each other, (ii) as required by or pursuant to any applicable law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law), (iii) to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of the Persons described in clause (i), and (iv) to any Rating Agency, Commercial Paper Note dealer, Credit Bank or Support Provider to Lender or any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans secured by, financial assets for which Administrator acts as the administrative agent or administrator and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, provided each Person described in the foregoing clauses (iii) and (iv) is informed of the confidential nature of such information.
. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents executed and delivered herewith represent the final agreement among the parties hereto and thereto and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties.

[FORM OF] COLLECTION ACCOUNT AGREEMENT
May 3, 2001
SunTrust Bank
000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx
XX 0000
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000
Attention: Xxxxx Xxxxxx
Re: Collection Account Agreement (this "Agreement") for Collection
Account No. 8800599501
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Oxford Industries, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("Oxford"), hereby notifies you that it has transferred to Oxford Receivables Company, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"), all of Oxford's right, title and interest in and to collection account no. 8800599501 maintained with you (the "Collection Account"). Borrower hereby notifies you that in connection with certain transactions involving the accounts receivables of Borrower, Borrower hereby transfers exclusive dominion and control of the Collection Account to SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation in its capacity as administrator for and on behalf of Three Pillars Funding Corporation ("Administrator"). You hereby acknowledge, however, that Oxford has agreed to act as initial servicer of Borrower's accounts receivable (Oxford, or any successor servicer, the "Servicer"), and agree that except in its capacity as Servicer, Oxford shall not have any ownership of, or rights in, the Collection Account or any funds therein.
In connection with the foregoing, Borrower, Oxford and Administrator hereby jointly instruct you, beginning on the date hereof until you are otherwise notified by Administrator in writing: (i) to name the Collection Account the "Oxford Receivables Company Collection Account"; (ii) to follow your usual operating procedures for the handling of any checks, except as modified by this Agreement; (iii) to follow your usual procedures in the event the Collection Account or any check should be or become the subject of any writ, levy, order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process, except as modified by this Agreement; and (iv) to transfer available funds in the Collection Account in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer or, if Administrator has exercised its rights with respect to the Collection Account as described below, pursuant to instructions given to you by Administrator from time to time.
You are hereby further instructed to permit the Servicer and Administrator to obtain upon request any information relating to the Collection Account, including, without limitation, any information regarding the balance or activity of the Collection Account.
Borrower and Oxford also hereby jointly notify you that beginning on the date hereof, notwithstanding anything herein or elsewhere to the contrary, Administrator, or any party designated in writing by Administrator, shall be irrevocably entitled to exercise any and all rights in respect of or in connection with the Collection Account, including, without limitation, the right to specify when payments are to be made out of or in connection with the Collection Account. The funds deposited into the Collection Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker's lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than Administrator (except that you may set off the face amount of any checks returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).
By executing this Agreement, you (a) irrevocably waive and agree not to assert, claim or endeavor to exercise, (b) irrevocably bar and estop yourself from asserting, claiming or exercising and (c) acknowledge that you have not heretofore received a notice, writ, order or any form of legal process from any other party asserting, claiming or exercising, any right of set-off, banker's lien, security interest or other purported form of claim with respect to the Collection Account or any funds from time to time therein (except for security interests which have been terminated on or prior to the date hereof). Except for your right to payment of your service charges and fees from Borrower and to make deductions for returned items, you shall have no rights in the Collection Account or funds therein. To the extent you may ever have such rights, you hereby expressly subordinate all such rights to all rights of Administrator.
To the extent that funds in the Collection Account are insufficient, each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, shall indemnify you for such returned checks and for any fees or charges associated with the Collection Account or this Agreement.
Each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, hereby authorizes you, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account that Borrower or Oxford may have with you for the amount or amounts due you under the preceding paragraph.
In addition, as collateral security for Borrower's obligations to Administrator and certain other persons in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this Agreement, Borrower hereby grants to Administrator a present and continuing security interest in (a) the Collection Account, (b) all contract rights and privileges in respect of the Collection Account, and (c) all cash, checks, money orders and other items of value of Borrower now or hereafter paid, deposited, credited, held (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise, in the possession or under the control of, or in transit to you or any agent, bailee or custodian thereof in respect of the Collection Account, and all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, "Receipts"), and you acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes notice, in accordance with Section9-305 (or any successor section thereto) of the Uniform Commercial Code of all applicable jurisdictions of Administrator's security interest in such collateral. Administrator hereby appoints you as Administrator's bailee for the Collection Account and all Receipts for the purpose of perfecting Administrator's security interest in such collateral, and you hereby accept such appointment and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to such appointment and further agrees that you, on behalf of Administrator, shall be entitled to exercise, as directed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any and all rights which Administrator may have in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this Agreement or under applicable law with respect to the Collection Account, all Receipts and all other collateral described in this paragraph.
You may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Borrower and Administrator. Administrator may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Borrower and you.

Attention: Xxxxx Xxxxxx
Re: LockBox Account Agreement (this "Agreement") for LockBox
Account No. 102262
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You currently maintain a lockbox, X.X. Xxx 000000, Xxxxxxx, XX 00000 (the "LockBox"), for the purpose of collecting payments on accounts receivable originated by Oxford Industries, Inc., a Georgia corporation ("Oxford"). Items received in the LockBox are deposited for collection by you into account no. 102262 maintained with you (the "LockBox Account"). Oxford hereby notifies you that it has sold its accounts receivable and all right, title and interest in and to the LockBox and the LockBox Account to Oxford Receivables Company, a Delaware corporation ("Borrower"). In connection with the financing for its acquisition of Oxford's accounts receivable, Borrower hereby transfers exclusive dominion and control of the LockBox Account to SunTrust Equitable Securities Corporation, in its capacity as administrator for and on behalf of Three Pillars Funding Corporation and its assigns ("Administrator"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, you hereby acknowledge that Oxford has agreed to act as initial servicer of such receivables for Borrower and Administrator (Oxford, or any successor servicer, the "Servicer"), but that, except in its capacity as Servicer, Oxford shall not have any ownership of, or rights in, the LockBox Account or any funds therein.
In connection with the foregoing, Borrower, Oxford and Administrator hereby jointly instruct you, beginning on the date hereof until you are otherwise notified by Administrator in writing: (i) to continue depositing items received in the LockBox into the LockBox Account for collection; (ii) to name the LockBox Account the "Oxford Receivables Company LockBox Account"; (iii) to follow your usual operating procedures for the handling of any checks, except as modified by this Agreement; (iv) to follow your usual procedures in the event the LockBox, the LockBox Account or any check should be or become the subject of any writ, levy, order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process, except as modified by this Agreement; and (v) to transfer available funds in the LockBox Account in accordance with the instructions of the Servicer or, if Administrator has exercised its rights with respect to the LockBox Account as described below, pursuant to instructions given to you by Administrator from time to time.
You are hereby further instructed to permit the Servicer and Administrator to obtain upon request any information relating to the LockBox and/or the LockBox Account, including, without limitation, any information regarding the balance or activity of the LockBox Account.
Borrower and Oxford also hereby jointly notify you that beginning on the date hereof, notwithstanding anything herein or elsewhere to the contrary, Administrator, or any party designated in writing by Administrator, shall be irrevocably entitled to exercise any and all rights in respect of or in connection with the LockBox and the LockBox Account, including, without limitation, the right to specify when payments are to be made out of or in connection with the LockBox Account. The funds deposited into the LockBox Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker's lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than Administrator (except that you may set off the face amount of any checks returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).
By executing this Agreement, you (a) irrevocably waive and agree not to assert, claim or endeavor to exercise, (b) irrevocably bar and estop yourself from asserting, claiming or exercising, and (c) acknowledge that you have not heretofore received a notice, writ, order or any form of legal process from any other party asserting, claiming or exercising, any right of set-off, banker's lien, security interest or other purported form of claim with respect to the LockBox Account or any funds from time to time therein (except for security interests which have been terminated on or prior to the date hereof). Except for your right to payment of your service charges and fees from Borrower and to make deductions for returned items, you shall have no rights in the LockBox Account or funds therein. To the extent you may ever have such rights, you hereby expressly subordinate all such rights to all rights of Administrator.
To the extent that funds in the LockBox Account are insufficient, each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, shall indemnify you for such returned checks and for any fees or charges associated with the LockBox, the LockBox Account or this Agreement.
Each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, hereby authorizes you, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account that Borrower or Oxford may have with you for the amount or amounts due you under the preceding paragraph.
In addition, as collateral security for Borrower's obligations to Administrator and certain other persons in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this Agreement, Borrower hereby grants to Administrator a present and continuing security interest in (a) the LockBox Account, (b) all contract rights and privileges in respect of the LockBox Account, and (c) all cash, checks, money orders and other items of value of Borrower now or hereafter paid, deposited, credited, held (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) or otherwise, in the possession or under the control of, or in transit to you or any agent, bailee or custodian thereof in respect of the LockBox Account, and all proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, "Receipts"), and you acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes notice, in accordance with Section9-305 (or any successor section thereto) of the Uniform Commercial Code of all applicable jurisdictions of Administrator's security interest in such collateral. Administrator hereby appoints you as Administrator's bailee for the LockBox Account and all Receipts for the purpose of perfecting Administrator's security interest in such collateral, and you hereby accept such appointment and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Borrower hereby agrees to such appointment and further agrees that you, on behalf of Administrator, shall be entitled to exercise, as directed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any and all rights which Administrator may have in connection with the transactions referenced in the first paragraph of this Agreement or under applicable law with respect to the LockBox Account, all Receipts and all other collateral described in this paragraph.
You may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Borrower and Administrator. Administrator may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Borrower and you. Borrower may not terminate this Agreement, except with the written consent of Administrator and upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to you and Administrator. Oxford may not terminate this Agreement. Incoming mail addressed to the LockBox Account (including, without limitation, any direct funds transfer to the LockBox Account) received after any such termination shall be forwarded in accordance with Administrator' s instructions.
This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be altered, modified or amended in any respect, nor may any right, power or privilege of any party hereunder be waived or released or discharged, except upon execution by you, Borrower and Administrator of a written instrument so providing. The terms and conditions of any agreement between Oxford and/or Borrower and you (each, a "Service Agreement") (whether now existing or executed hereafter) with respect to any lock-box arrangements, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, are made part of this Agreement with respect to matters not explicitly covered in this Agreement. In the event that any provision in this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision of any such Service Agreement, this Agreement will exclusively govern and control. Each party agrees to take all actions reasonably requested by any other party to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to preserve and protect the rights of each party hereunder.
You shall not assign or transfer your rights or obligations hereunder (other than to Administrator) without the prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of Administrator and Borrower. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Administrator, each of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
You hereby represent that the person signing this Agreement on your behalf is duly authorized by you to so sign.
You agree to give Administrator and Borrower prompt notice if the LockBox Account becomes subject to any writ, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.
Any notice, demand or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and may be (a) personally served, (b) sent by courier service, (c) telecopied or (d) sent by United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when (a) delivered in person, (b) delivered by courier service, (c) upon receipt of the facsimile or (d) three business days after deposit in the United States mail (registered or certified, with postage prepaid and properly addressed). For the purposes hereof, the addresses of the parties hereto shall be as set forth below each party's name below, or, as to each party, at such other address as may be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties.
You will not be liable to Oxford, the Servicer, Borrower or Administrator for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost ("Damages") arising out of or relating to your performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly from your acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or intentional misconduct. In no event will you be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential Damages, including but not limited to lost profits.
Each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, shall indemnify you against, and hold you harmless from, any and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys' fees and any fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this Agreement) in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions concerning your provision of any services described in any Service Agreement or concerning this Agreement, the LockBox or the LockBox Account. This section does not apply to any cost or damage attributable to your gross negligence or intentional misconduct. Borrower's and Oxford's joint and several obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Each of Borrower and Oxford, jointly and severally, agrees to pay to you, upon receipt of your invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys' fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by you in connection with the preparation and administration (including any amendments) and enforcement of this Agreement and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, including but not limited to any such costs, expenses and fees arising out of the resolution of any conflict, dispute, or motion regarding entitlement to rights or rights of action, or other action to enforce your rights in a case arising under Xxxxx 00, Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code.
By your signature below, you, solely in your capacity as the depositary maintaining the LockBox Account and the provider of services associated with the LockBox (in such capacity, hereinafter, the "LockBox Account Bank"), hereby covenant and agree that, prior to the day that is one year and one day after the payment in full of the Senior Claim (as defined in the Subordinated Note), you will not, solely in your capacity as LockBox Account Bank, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Borrower any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.
