Receivables Loan Agreement

This Receivables Loan Agreement, dated as of December 30, 2009 (this “Agreement”), is entered into by and among:

(a) ABF Freight Funding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”),

(b) ABF Freight System, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ABF” or the “Servicer”), as initial Servicer (the Servicer together with the Borrower, the “Borrower Parties” and each, a “Borrower Party”),

(d) SunTrust Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“STRH”), as agent and administrator for the Lender and its assigns under the Transaction Documents (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Agent”).

Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.

Preliminary Statements

Whereas, Borrower desires that the Lender extend financing to Borrower on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Whereas, the Lender is willing to provide such financing on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Whereas, STRH has been requested and is willing to act as agent and administrator on behalf of the Lender and its assigns in accordance with the terms hereof.

Article I
Commitment; Borrowing Procedures

Section 1.1. Commitment. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Article VI), the Lender agrees to make loans to Borrower on a revolving basis from time to time (the “Commitment”) prior to the Facility Termination Date in such amounts as may be from time to time requested by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.2; provided that no Loans shall be made by the Lender if, after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Loan Amount would exceed the lesser of (a) the Facility Limit and (b) the Net Pool Balance less the Required Reserve. The Borrower will pay Interest on Loans made pursuant to this Agreement at the Alternate Base Rate or the LIBO Rate, selected in accordance with Article IV hereof. Within the limits of the Commitment, Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow under this Section 1.1.

(b) The Borrower may, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part, the unused portion of the Facility Limit, without premium or penalty; provided that each partial reduction of the Facility Limit shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof) and shall not reduce the Facility Limit below $10,000,000.

Section 1.2. Borrowing Procedures. The Borrower (or the Servicer, on its behalf) may request a Loan hereunder by giving notice to Agent of a proposed borrowing not later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time), at least (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such borrowing (or such lesser period of time as Lender may consent) in the case of a Loan which is to bear interest at the LIBO Rate, and (ii) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of such borrowing (or such lesser period of time as Lender may consent) in the case of a Loan which is to bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate, in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto (each, a “Borrowing Request”). Each Borrowing Request shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Each Borrowing Request shall specify the requested Loan amount (which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000), whether the Loan is to be made at the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate, and the Borrowing Date (which shall be on a Business Day). There shall not be more than four (4) Loans which are accruing interest at the LIBO Rate outstanding at any time. On each Borrowing Date, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI and this Section 1.2, the Lender shall deposit to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (Atlanta time), an amount equal to the requested Loan.

Section 1.3. Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall provide the Agent with prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period in the form of Exhibit IX hereto (a “Prepayment Notice”) of any proposed prepayment of any Loan or, in the case of any Loan bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate, any portion thereof. The Borrower shall only deliver a Prepayment Notice if Collections are available in an amount sufficient to make the proposed prepayment of a Loan plus any related accrued and unpaid Interest and Broken Funding Costs. Such Prepayment Notice shall designate (i) the date (the “Proposed Prepayment Date”) upon which any such prepayment shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period and need not be a Settlement Date), (ii) the amount of the Loan or Loans to be prepaid, and (iii) to which Loan or Loans such prepayment shall apply (in the absence of direction from the Borrower as to which Loans shall be prepaid such prepayment shall be applied as the Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion) (the “Aggregate Prepayment”). Only one (1) Prepayment Notice shall be outstanding at any time. The Borrower shall pay any Broken Funding Costs and accrued and unpaid Interest on the portion of the Aggregate Loan Amount which has been prepaid on the Proposed Prepayment Date, provided, however, that unpaid accrued Interest on such prepaid amount shall only be paid on such date if so requested by the Administrator, on behalf of the Lender, in its sole discretion, otherwise such Interest shall be payable on the next occurring Settlement Date.

(b) If on any day the Aggregate Loan Amount exceeds the amount obtained by subtracting the Required Reserve from the Net Pool Balance (such an event, a “Borrowing Base Deficiency”), the Borrower, upon notice from Lender or Agent of such Borrowing Base Deficiency or upon the knowledge of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower thereof, shall make a prepayment of the Aggregate Loan Amount in an amount equal to such excess, plus any Broken Funding Costs and accrued and unpaid Interest on the portion of the Aggregate Loan Amount which has been prepaid, provided, however, that unpaid accrued Interest on such prepaid amount shall only be paid on such date if so requested by the Administrator, on behalf of the Lender, in its sole discretion, otherwise such Interest shall be payable on the next occurring Settlement Date

Section 1.4. Deemed Collections. If on any day:

(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable that was included as an Eligible Receivable in the most recent Monthly Report or Weekly Report provided to the Agent is reduced or cancelled as a result of any defective, returned or rejected goods or services, any cash discount or any other adjustment by the Originator or any Affiliate thereof, or as a result of any governmental or regulatory action, or

(ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable that was included as an Eligible Receivable in the most recent Monthly Report or Weekly Report provided to the Agent is reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an unrelated transaction), or

(iii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable that was included as an Eligible Receivable in the most recent Monthly Report or Weekly Report provided to the Agent is reduced on account of the obligation of the Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or

(iv) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable that was included as an Eligible Receivable in the most recent Monthly Report or Weekly Report provided to the Agent is less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Monthly Report or Weekly Report (for any reason other than receipt of Collections or such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), or

(v) any of the representations or warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 5.1(g), Section 5.1(i), Section 5.1(j), Section 5.1(q), Section 5.1(r), Section 5.1(s), Section 5.1(t), Section 5.1(u) or Section 5.1(y) were not true when made with respect to any Purchased Receivable,

then, on such day as notice has been given to Borrower by Lender or Agent of such occurrence or an Authorized Officer of the Borrower shall have knowledge thereof, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i)-(iv) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, and (in either case), (1) at all times prior to an Amortization Event, if as a result of such Deemed Collection a Borrowing Base Deficiency would occur, not later than two Business Days thereafter the Borrower shall pay to the Agent’s Account an amount necessary to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency and (2) at all times after an Amortization Event has occurred, not later than two Business Days thereafter the Borrower shall pay an amount equal to such Deemed Collection to the Agent’s Account to be distributed in the same manner as actual cash collections are distributed pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof.

If the Borrower pays the Outstanding Balance of any Purchased Receivable under clause (B) above, the Agent agrees to release all right, title and interest it may have in and to such Purchased Receivable and the Related Security relating solely to such Receivable to the extent the Originator is required to repurchase such Receivable from the Borrower, and does repurchase such Receivable, in accordance with the terms of Receivables Sale Agreement.

Section 1.5. Payment Requirements and Computations. All amounts to be paid or deposited by a Borrower Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 noon (Atlanta time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to the Agent for the account of the Lender, they shall be paid to the Agent’s Account, for the account of the Lender until otherwise notified by the Agent. All computations of Interest which accrues at the Alternate Base Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, for the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Period. All computations of Interest (other than Interest which accrues at the Alternate Base Rate), per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Period. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

Article II
Payments and Collections

Section 2.1. Payments of Recourse Obligations. The Borrower hereby promises to pay the following (collectively, the “Recourse Obligations”):

(a) all amounts due and owing under Section 1.3 or Section 1.4 on the dates specified therein or in order to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency within two (2) Business Days of knowledge of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower or notice from Agent or Lender of the occurrence thereof;

(b) the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the dates specified therein;

(c) all accrued and unpaid Interest on the Loans accruing Interest at the Alternate Base Rate or the Default Rate on each Settlement Date applicable thereto;

Section 2.2. Collections Prior to the Facility Termination Date. (a) Prior to the Facility Termination Date, any Deemed Collections and any Collections received by the Servicer shall be set aside in the Master Collection Account and held in trust by the Servicer for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Recourse Obligations as provided in this Section 2.2. Any Collections not required to be set aside pursuant to the foregoing sentence may be distributed prior to the next Settlement Date to the Servicer in respect of the Servicing Fee or to the Borrower for purposes of purchasing new Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement or paying down the Subordinated Note or, to the extent that the amount in the Master Collection Account available for distribution on any day exceeds the sum of (i) the purchase price of the Receivables to then be purchased under the Receivables Sale Agreement, (ii) the amounts outstanding and payable under the Subordinated Note and (iii) any other Recourse Obligations payable on or prior to the next scheduled Settlement Date, such excess amount may be distributed by the Borrower to the Originator in accordance with the terms of the Borrower’s limited liability company agreement so long as a Borrowing Base Deficiency will not result from such proposed distribution.

(b) On each Settlement Date and, with respect to clause “first” and “fourth” below, on the last day of each Interest Period for a LIBO Loan and on the date any prepayment of the Loans is required pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof, prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Servicer shall apply the amounts set aside in the Master Collection Account that are not permitted to be distributed to the Borrower under Section 2.2(a) (if not previously paid in accordance with Section 2.1) in the order specified below:

first, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid Interest and Broken Funding Costs (if any) that are then due and owing,

second, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clause first, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee,

third, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first and second, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter (if any) that are then due and owing,

fourth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through third, if required under Section 1.3 or Section 1.4 or in order to avoid an Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event under Section 9.1(n), to the ratable reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount, provided, that such application shall be made to such Loans as will, and otherwise in a manner reasonably calculated to, minimize the Borrower’s liability for Broken Funding Costs as a result of such application of such funds in reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount,

fifth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through fourth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Recourse Obligations, if any, that are then due and owing, and

-3-

sixth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through fifth, the balance, if any, to the Borrower or otherwise in accordance with the Borrower’s instructions, provided, however, that if any event has occurred and is continuing that would constitute an Amortization Event, Unmatured Amortization Event, Unmatured Servicer Termination Event or a Servicer Termination Event, any funds available to be applied pursuant to this clause sixth shall be retained in the Master Collection Account (unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Agent) until such time as the event that would constitute an Amortization Event, Unmatured Amortization Event, Unmatured Servicer Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event has been cured or waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) In the event that a Collection Notice has been delivered pursuant to any Collection Account Agreement, all amounts received in any Collection Account shall at the sole discretion of the Agent, either (i) be retained in such Collection Account or other account of the Agent for such day, Interest Period or part thereof and applied on the next following Settlement Date or the last day of any Interest Period occurring prior to the next following Settlement Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement until the Aggregate Loan Amount and all other amounts owing hereunder are paid in full or (ii) be released to the Borrower and applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.3. Application of Collections After the Facility Termination Date. (a) On the Facility Termination Date and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all Collections received on each such day. On and after the Facility Termination Date, the Servicer shall, on each Settlement Date and on each other Business Day specified by the Agent remit to the Agent’s Account the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Agent shall apply such amounts on each Settlement Date, and, with respect to clause “second” and “fifth” below, on the last day of each Interest Period for a LIBO Loan, and on each other Business Day it so chooses in the order specified below:

first, to the reimbursement of the Agent’s costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

third, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first and second, to the accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee,

fourth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through third, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter,

fifth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through fourth, to the ratable reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount, provided, that such application shall be made to such Loans as will, and otherwise in a manner reasonably calculated to, minimize the Borrower’s liability for Broken Funding Costs as a result of such application of such funds in reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount,

sixth, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through fifth, for the ratable payment of all other Aggregate Unpaids, and

seventh, to the extent funds are available therefor after payment of clauses first through sixth, to the Borrower.

Section 2.4. Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. The Borrower shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Section 2.5. Clean Up Call; Release of Security Interests. (a) The Servicer (so long as the Servicer is an Affiliate of the Borrower) shall have the right (after providing written notice to the Agent in accordance with the Required Notice Period), at any time following the reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount to a level that is less than 10.0% of the highest Aggregate Loan Amount outstanding during the term of this Agreement, to purchase all of the remaining Purchased Receivables from the Borrower for the fair and reasonably equivalent value thereof, but in no event shall the amount paid pursuant to any such purchase be less than the Aggregate Unpaids through the date of such purchase, provided, however, that any portion of the Aggregate Unpaids consisting of unpaid accrued Interest shall only be paid on such date if so requested by the Administrator, on behalf of the Lender, in its sole discretion, otherwise such Interest shall be payable on the next occurring Settlement Date. Such payment shall be payable in immediately available funds to the Agent’s Account. Upon such prepayment, the Agent shall release any Adverse Claim on such Receivables, Related Security and Collections with respect thereto created by the Agent. Such release shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against the Lender or the Agent.

-4-

(b) On the Final Payout Date, the Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall be considered to have released, free and clear of any Adverse Claim created by the Agent (but otherwise shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against the Secured Parties or the Agent) to the Borrower the Agent’s (on behalf of the Secured Parties) security interest in the Purchased Receivables, Related Security and Collections with respect thereto and shall at the request, and sole cost and expense, of the Borrower, execute and deliver to the Borrower, all such documents or instruments as are necessary to terminate the Agent’s security interest on behalf of the Secured Parties in the Purchased Receivables, Related Security and Collections with respect thereto.

Article III
[Reserved]

Article IV
Loans

Section 4.1. Loans. Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall accrue Interest for each day during the related Interest Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate, as applicable, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until the Borrower gives the required notice to the Agent of another Interest Rate in accordance with Section 4.3, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan shall be the LIBO Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable).

Section 4.2. Interest Payments. On each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the benefit of the Lender) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Interest on each Loan for the entire Interest Period of each Loan in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3. Loan Interest Rates. At the date of each borrowing of a Loan and at the commencement of each Interest Period (with the required prior notice described in this Section 4), the Borrower may select the LIBO Rate (subject to Section 4.4 below) or the Alternate Base Rate as the Interest Rate applicable for each Loan during such Interest Period. The Borrower shall by 12:00 noon (Atlanta time): (a) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period with respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate and (b) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the commencement of any Interest Period with respect to which the Alternate Base Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate, give the Agent irrevocable notice of the new Interest Rate for the Loan associated with such new Interest Period and the duration of such Interest Period.

Section 4.4. Suspension of the LIBO Rate. (a) If the Lender notifies the Agent that it has determined that funding its Loans at a LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Loan at such LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) such LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Loan at such LIBO Rate, then the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Parties and the Agent shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require the Borrower to select the Alternate Base Rate for any Loans accruing Interest at such LIBO Rate; provided, however, the failure to so notify any Borrower Party shall not result in the non-suspension of the availability of such LIBO Rate.

(b) Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 4.4(a) with respect to the Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, to the extent permissible under applicable law, endeavor in good faith to change the funding office at which it books its ratable share of any Loan accruing Interest at a LIBO Rate hereunder if such change would make it lawful for the Lender to fund such Loan at a LIBO Rate; provided, however, that such change may be made in such manner that the Lender, in its sole and reasonable determination, suffers no unreimbursed cost or expense or any disadvantage whatsoever.

Section 4.5. Default Rate. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all Loans shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

-5-

Article V
Representations and Warranties

Section 5.1. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower Parties. Each Borrower Party hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lender, as to itself, as of the date hereof and as of the date of each Loan that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Borrower Party’s jurisdiction of organization is correctly set forth in the preamble to this Agreement and such jurisdiction is its sole jurisdiction of organization. Such Borrower Party is duly organized under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and is a “registered organization” as defined in the UCC in effect in such jurisdiction. Such Borrower Party is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and no other state or jurisdiction, and such jurisdiction must maintain a public record showing the organization to have been organized. Such Borrower Party is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity, and has and holds all organizational 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.

(b) Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery. The execution and delivery by such Borrower Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and, in the case of the Borrower, the Borrower’s use of the proceeds of Loans made hereunder, are within its entity power and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary entity action on its part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Borrower Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Borrower Party.

(c) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Borrower Party 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 assets of such Borrower Party or its Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder) 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.

(d) Governmental Authorization. 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 such Borrower Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(e) Actions, Suits. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to the best of such Borrower Party’s knowledge, threatened, against it, or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other body, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Borrower Party is not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Borrower Party is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Borrower Party enforceable against such Borrower Party 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).

(g) Accuracy of Information. All information (other than any projection or other forward-looking information) heretofore furnished by such Borrower Party or any of its Affiliates to the Agent or the Lender 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 (other than any projection or other forward-looking information) hereafter furnished by such Borrower Party or any of its Affiliates to the Agent or the Lender will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified (unless such representations and warranties are made as of an earlier date) and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact.

(h) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used by such Borrower Party (i) for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, (A) Section 7.2(e) of this Agreement or (B) Regulation T, U or X promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from time to time or (ii) to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 12, 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended other than the repurchase of equity securities of the Parent so long as such repurchase does not violate Sections 12, 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

-6-

Article VIII
Administration and Collection

Section 8.1. Designation of Servicer. (a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Purchased Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the “Servicer”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 8.1. ABF is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Agent may, upon the occurrence of an Unmatured Servicer Termination Event (other than one arising as a result of a Voluntary Termination, unless another Unmatured Servicer Termination Event occurs), designate as Servicer any Person to succeed ABF or any successor Servicer.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Agent, ABF shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Servicer to any Person other than (i) the Borrower, (ii) the Originator, and (iii) with respect to certain Defaulted Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Neither the Borrower nor the Originator shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by ABF. If at any time the Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person other than ABF, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by ABF to the Borrower or the Originator may, at the discretion of the Agent, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Agent to ABF and to the Borrower and the Originator.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b): (i) ABF shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent and the Lender for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Agent and the Lender shall be entitled to deal exclusively with ABF in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent and the Lender shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than ABF in order for communication to the Servicer and its sub-servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. ABF, at all times that it is the Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any sub-servicer or other delegate of the Servicer with any notice given to the Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 8.2. Duties of Servicer. (a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

(b) The Servicer shall cause (i) all Collections from all Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited into a Collection Account, (ii) all amounts in each Segregated Account to be deposited into the Master Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following such funds becoming available to the party in whose name such Segregated Account is held, (iii) all amounts in each Collection Account (other than the Master Collection Account) to be deposited into the Master Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof and (iv) on and after such date as specified by Section 7.3 hereof, each Collection Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect. In the case of any remittances received in any Lock-Box, Segregated Account or Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of the Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Servicer shall promptly remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances. From and after the date the Agent delivers to any Collection Bank a Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, the Agent may request that the Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors with respect to the Purchased Receivables, to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the Agent and, at all times thereafter, the Borrower and the Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and shall not take any affirmative action to permit or assist any other Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any cash or payment item other than Collections.

-15-

(c) The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of the Borrower and the Lender their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, upon the request of the Agent during the occurrence of an Unmatured Amortization Event, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agent, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or the Borrower prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Agent such allocable share of Collections of Purchased Receivables set aside for the Lender on the first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(d) The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent or the Lender under this Agreement. The Agent shall have the right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable (whether or not such Receivable is a Defaulted or Delinquent Receivable) of an Obligor which is an Obligor under any Defaulted or Delinquent Receivable; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to comply with such direction if the Borrower determines, in its reasonable business judgment, that it is preferable not to enforce or settle any Delinquent or Defaulted Receivable, in which case such Defaulted or Delinquent Receivable (and, at the option of the Agent, any other Receivable of such Obligor) shall be treated as a Deemed Collection, and payment shall be made thereon in a manner consistent with Section 1.4.

(e) The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Borrower and the Agent and the Lender all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Purchased Receivables, the related Contracts (other than the Master Contracts) and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Purchased Receivables (other than the Master Contracts) and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Agent during the occurrence of an Unmatured Servicer Termination Event or Unmatured Amortization Event, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records (other than any Record that contains confidentiality provisions (except for Records as to which the related Obligor has consented to such delivery) that cannot be satisfied by the execution and delivery of a confidentiality agreement), at a place selected by the Agent. The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to the Borrower any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness owing to the Borrower not constituting Purchased Receivables. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the Agent or the Lender, furnish to the Lender (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Lender pursuant to Article II.

(f) Any payment made by an Obligor that is not specified by such Obligor to relate to a particular invoice or other obligation of such Obligor to the Originator, FreightValue or the Borrower, , except as otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Agent, shall be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

Section 8.3. Collection Notices. The Agent is authorized at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. The Borrower hereby transfers to the Agent for the benefit of the Lender, effective when the Agent delivers such notice, the exclusive dominion and control of each Lock-Box and the Collection Accounts. In case any authorized signatory of the Borrower whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent, and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled (a) at any time after delivery of the Collection Notices, to endorse the Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (b) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to enforce the Purchased Receivables, the related Contracts (other than any Master Contract which contains a prohibition against the assignment thereof) and the Related Security, and (c) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Purchased Receivables to come into the possession of the Agent rather than the Borrower.

Section 8.4. Responsibilities of the Borrower. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent, on behalf of the Lender, of the Agent’s rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, the Originator, FreightValue or the Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Purchased Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Agent and the Lender shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of the Borrower or the Originator thereunder.

-16-

Section 8.5. Receivables Reports. (a) Monthly. The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent (i) on each Monthly Reporting Date, a Monthly Report and an electronic file of the data contained therein, and (ii) at such times as the Agent may request upon reasonable advance notice, a listing by Obligor of all Purchased Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables.

(b) Weekly. Additionally, the Servicer may, but shall not be required to, prepare and forward to the Agent a Weekly Report showing calculations as of the end of each prior week on each Weekly Reporting Date. Failure to provide any such Weekly Report shall result in the imposition of the Reporting Frequency Modifier until the next Weekly Reporting Date with respect to which the Servicer provides a Weekly Report.

Section 8.6. Servicing Fee. As compensation for the Servicer’s servicing activities on their behalf, the Servicer shall be paid the Servicing Fee in arrears on each Settlement Date out of Collections.
