(b) Section 5.1 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement is amended by adding the following proviso to the end of the first sentence thereof:

; provided that the consent of the Structuring Agent shall not be required for any amendment or waiver unless such amendment or waiver materially and adversely affects the interests of the Structuring Agent or materially increases its obligations under this Agreement.

(c) The following new Section 5.15 is hereby added to the Receivables Purchase Agreement immediately following the existing Section 5.14 thereof:

Section 5.15. Structuring Agent. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Structuring Agent shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement, other than the Structuring Agent’s right to receive fees pursuant to Section 1.5. Each party acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Structuring Agent in deciding to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit to take, any action under any Transaction Document.

(d) Clause (q) of the definition of “Eligible Receivable” set forth in Exhibit I of the Receivables Purchase Agreement is amended by adding the following proviso to the end thereof:

provided, however, that a Receivable that is an FOB Receivable and that otherwise satisfies all the other criteria set forth in this definition shall not be deemed to be ineligible due to this clause (q) if such Receivable’s failure to satisfy the requirement set forth in this clause (q) arises solely due to such Receivable’s status as an FOB Receivable;

(e) The definition of “Excess Concentration” set forth in Exhibit I of the Receivables Purchase Agreement is amended by (i) adding the following new clause (viii) immediately following the existing clause (vii) thereof:

(viii)    the amount by which the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Eligible Receivables that constitute FOB Receivables then in the Receivables Pool, exceeds 5.0% of the Adjusted Aggregate Eligible Outstanding Balance;

2

“FOB Receivable” means a Receivable for which the goods giving rise to such Receivable have been, within the preceding thirty (30) days, shipped to, but have not yet been received by, the related Obligor, and for which the title to or risk of loss has not yet passed to such Obligor. For the avoidance of doubt, such Receivable shall cease to constitute an Eligible Receivable if the related products or goods are not delivered to such Obligor on or prior to the 30th day after the origination of such Receivable.

“Structuring Agent” means PNC Capital Markets LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company.
