SECTION 5. Covenants of the Depositor, Conn Appliances and the Issuer. Each of the Depositor, Conn Appliances and the Issuer jointly and severally covenants and agrees with the Initial Purchasers that:

(a) It will advise the Initial Purchasers promptly of: (i) any proposal to amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, and will not affect such amendment or supplement without first furnishing to you a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement and obtaining your consent, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) any amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, and (iii) any order or

communication suspending or preventing, or threatening to suspend or prevent, the offer and sale of the Notes, or any prevention or suspension of the use of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, or of any proceedings or examinations that may lead to such an order or communication, by any authority administering any applicable laws, as soon as practicable after it is advised thereof, and will use its reasonable efforts to prevent the issuance of any such order or communication and to obtain as soon as possible its lifting, if issued.

(b) If, at any time prior to the completion of the sale of the Purchased Notes by the Initial Purchasers (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date), (i) any event occurs as a result of which the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, in each case, as then amended or supplemented, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (ii) if it is necessary at any time, in the reasonable judgment of any Initial Purchaser or in order to comply with law, to amend or supplement the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, it (in compliance with subsection (a)) shall notify the Initial Purchasers of such untrue statement or omission, or circumstance, no later than one business day after discovery and it shall promptly prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, in each case at its expense, to the Initial Purchasers an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission, effect such compliance or address such circumstance. Any such delivery shall not operate as a waiver or limitation of any rights of the Initial Purchasers hereunder.

(c) It (or the Depositor on its behalf) will deliver to the Initial Purchasers, without charge, copies of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Offering Memorandum and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities and to such recipients as any Initial Purchaser shall reasonably request.

(d) It (or the Depositor on its behalf) will arrange to qualify the Purchased Notes for offer and sale under the applicable laws of such jurisdictions as the Initial Purchasers may reasonably request, and will maintain all such qualifications for so long as required for the distribution of the Purchased Notes and, thereafter, to the extent required by such jurisdictions.

(f) On or before the Closing Date, Conn Appliances and its applicable Affiliates shall cause its computer records relating to the Receivables to be marked to show the Receivables Trust’s ownership of the Receivables, and from and after the Closing Date none of the Depositor, Conn Appliances or the Issuer will take any action inconsistent with the Receivables Trust’s ownership of the Receivables other than as permitted by the Transaction Documents.

(g) From the date hereof until thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, neither it nor any trust or other special purpose entity, including the Issuer, created or owned directly or

indirectly by it or any Affiliate will offer to sell or sell anywhere any securities similar to the Purchased Notes that are collateralized by (directly or indirectly), or evidence an ownership interest in, Merchandise without the prior written consent of each of the Initial Purchasers.

(h) Neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Agents will, directly or indirectly, make offers or sales of any security, or solicit offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act. Without limitation of the foregoing, neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Agents will sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) the offering of which security will be integrated with the sale of the Purchased Notes in a manner that would require the registration of the Purchased Notes under the Securities Act.

(i) So long as any of the Purchased Notes are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, it (or the Depositor on its behalf) will, unless they become subject to and comply with Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, provide to each holder of such restricted securities and to each prospective purchaser (as designated by such holder) of such restricted securities, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act. This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of the holders, and the prospective purchasers designated by such holders, from time to time of such restricted securities.

(j) It will comply with the representation made by Conn Appliances to each Hired NRSRO pursuant to paragraph (a)(3)(iii) of Rule 17g-5.

(k) To the extent that any of the ratings assigned to the Purchased Notes by Fitch are conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by the Depositor, Conn Appliances or any Affiliate, as the case may be, the relevant party shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, such documents and take any such other actions as promptly as possible.

SECTION 9. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Depositor, Conn Appliances and Conn’s, Inc. will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such Initial Purchaser in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which it or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Time of Sale Information, the Form ABS-15G, the Offering Memorandum or any amendment, exhibit or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that none of the Depositor, Conn Appliances or Conn’s, Inc. will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in, or omission or alleged omission from, any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information (as defined below). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that each of the Depositor, Conn Appliances or Conn’s, Inc. may otherwise have.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, Conn Appliances and Conn’s, Inc. and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls such Persons within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by any of them in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or

actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Time of Sale Information, the Offering Memorandum or any amendment, exhibit or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Initial Purchaser Information (as defined below). As used herein, the term “Initial Purchaser Information” means information appearing in Schedule 2 to this Agreement. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either subsection (a) or (b), such person (the “indemnified party”) promptly shall notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceedings and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 9 (unless the indemnifying party was materially prejudiced by the failure to give such notice) or otherwise than under this Section 9. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless: (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party agree on the retention of such counsel at the indemnifying party’s expense, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests that may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed promptly as they are incurred. Such counsel shall be designated in writing by the Depositor, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to subsection (a), and by the Initial Purchasers, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to subsection (b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought

hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b), then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b): (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Depositor, Conn Appliances, the Issuer, Conn’s, Inc. and their affiliates, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, from the offering of the Purchased Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Depositor, Conn Appliances, the Issuer, Conn’s, Inc. and their affiliates, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Depositor, Conn Appliances, the Issuer, Conn’s, Inc. and their affiliates, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, in connection with the offering of the Purchased Notes shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses other than any Initial Purchaser Compensation (as defined below)) received by the Depositor, Conn Appliances, the Issuer, Conn’s, Inc. and their affiliates bear to an amount equal to the excess of (x) the aggregate purchase price received by the Initial Purchasers for the Purchased Notes over (y) the aggregate purchase price paid by the Initial Purchasers for the Purchased Notes (such excess, the “Initial Purchaser Compensation”). The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Depositor, Conn Appliances, the Issuer, Conn’s, Inc. or their affiliates or by any Initial Purchaser, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Purchased Notes they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(e) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section, no Initial Purchaser (except as may be provided in the agreement between the Initial Purchasers relating to the offering of the Purchased Notes) shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the Initial Purchaser Compensation received by such Initial Purchaser exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser

otherwise has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution or indemnity from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that otherwise may be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

SECTION 10. Default by an Initial Purchaser. If any Initial Purchaser fails to purchase and pay for any of the Purchased Notes agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder, and such failure constitutes a default in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchaser shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for the Purchased Notes that the defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of Purchased Notes that the defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Purchased Notes, the remaining Initial Purchaser shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Purchased Notes, and if such nondefaulting Initial Purchaser does not purchase all of the Purchased Notes, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the remaining Initial Purchaser shall determine in order that the required changes (if any) in the Offering Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability to the Depositor, Conn Appliances, Conn’s, Inc., their affiliates or any nondefaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

SECTION 11. No Bankruptcy Petition. Each Initial Purchaser severally covenants and agrees that, before the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all Notes, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, the Issuer or the Depositor, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under any Federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

SECTION 12. Survival of Representations and Obligations. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation or statement as to the results thereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Purchased Notes. If for any reason (other than solely as a result of the gross negligence or other malfeasance of the Initial Purchasers) the purchase of the Purchased Notes by the Initial Purchasers is not consummated, Conn’s, Inc. shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to Section 6 and the obligations pursuant to Section 9 shall remain in effect. If for any reason (other than solely as a result of the gross negligence or other malfeasance of the Initial Purchasers) the purchase of the Purchased Notes by the Initial Purchasers is not consummated, Conn’s, Inc. will reimburse the Initial Purchasers (other than any defaulting Initial Purchaser contemplated by Section 10) severally, upon demand, for all out-of-pocket expenses covered in Section 6 (subject to any applicable limitation contained therein) incurred by any Initial Purchaser in connection with the offering of the Purchased Notes.

SECTION 13. Notices. All communications hereunder will be in writing and will be mailed or delivered and confirmed in each case as follows: (a) if to the Initial Purchasers, to (i) Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC at Eleven Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, and (ii) Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. at 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000; and (b) if to the Depositor, Conn Appliances, Conn’s, Inc. or the Issuer, at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx, 00000.

SECTION 14. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and agents, and the directors, officers and control persons referred to in Section 9, and no other person will have any rights or obligations hereunder.

SECTION 15. Applicable Law, Waiver of Jury Trial, Entire Agreement. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York without giving effect to its conflicts of law provisions (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law). To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the parties hereto waives any right to have a jury participate in resolving any dispute, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise between the parties hereto arising out of, connected with, related to, or incidental to the relationship between any of them in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement represents the entire agreement among the Depositor, Conn Appliances, Conn’s, Inc. and the Issuer, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Offering Memorandum, the conduct of the offering and the purchase and sale of the Purchased Notes.

SECTION 16. Severability of Provisions. Any covenant, provision, agreement or term of this Agreement that is prohibited or is held to be void 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 hereof or the enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 17. Amendment. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

SECTION 18. Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for the purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

SECTION 19. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

SECTION 20. Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any documents executed and delivered in connection herewith or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the
