Purchase and Sale Agreement THIS PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of August 30, 2006 (the “Closing Date”) is entered into between the VARIOUS ENTITIES LISTED ON SCHEDULE I HERETO (each, an “Originator”; and collectively, “Originators”), and XXXXXX RECEIVABLES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”). DEFINITIONS Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I to the Second Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 15, 2018 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, as Seller, Xxxxxx Tire & Rubber Company (individually, “Cooper”), as initial Servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the various Purchasers and Purchaser Agents from time to time party thereto, the various financial institutions from time to time party thereto as LC Participants and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association (as successor by assignment from PNC Bank, National Association), as Administrator and as LC Bank. All references herein to months are to calendar months unless otherwise expressly indicated. BACKGROUND: 1. The Company is a special purpose limited liability company, all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of which are owned by Xxxxxx; 2. The Originators generate Receivables in the ordinary course of their businesses; 3. The Originators wish to sell Receivables to the Company, and the Company is willing to purchase Receivables from the Originators, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; 4. The Originators and the Company intend this transaction to be a true sale of Receivables by each Originator to the Company, providing the Company with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and the Originators and the Company do not intend the transactions hereunder to be a loan from the Company to any Originator. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL SECTION 1.1 Agreement to Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Originator, severally and for itself, agrees to sell to the Company, and the Company agrees to purchase from such Originator, from time to time on or after the Closing Date, but before the Purchase and Sale Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.4), all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to:
![slide14](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec014.jpg)
2 Purchase and Sale Agreement (a) each Receivable of such Originator that existed and was owing to such Originator at the closing of such Originator’s business in Findlay, Ohio on July 31, 2006 (the “Cut- off Date”) other than Receivables contributed pursuant to Section 3.1 (the “Contributed Receivables”); (b) each Receivable generated by such Originator after the Cut-off Date to but excluding the Purchase and Sale Termination Date; (c) all rights to, but not the obligations of, such Originator under all Related Security with respect to any of the foregoing Receivables; (d) all monies due or to become due to such Originator with respect to any of the foregoing; (e) all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing; (f) all collections and other proceeds and products of any of the foregoing (as defined in the UCC) that are or were received by such Originator on or after the Cut-off Date, including, without limitation, all funds which either are received by such Originator, the Company or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Obligors in payment of any amounts owed (including, without limitation, invoice price, finance charges, interest and all other charges) in respect of any of the above Receivables or are applied to such amounts owed by the Obligors (including, without limitation, any insurance payments that such Originator, the Company or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Receivables, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of repossessed goods or other collateral or property of the Obligors in respect of any of the above Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Receivables); and (g) all right, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to the Lock-Box Accounts, into which any Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property acquired with any such collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC). All purchases and contributions hereunder shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Originators set forth in this Agreement and each other Transaction Document. No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Company hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The Company’s foregoing commitment to purchase Receivables and the proceeds and rights described in clauses (c) through (g) (collectively, the “Related Rights”) is herein called the “Purchase Facility.” SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases. (a) Closing Date Purchases. Each Originator’s entire right, title and interest in (i) each Receivable that existed and was owing to such Originator at the Cut-off Date (other than Contributed Receivables), (ii) all Receivables created by such Originator after the Cut-off Date, to and including the Closing Date (other than Contributed Receivables), and (iii) all Related Rights
![slide15](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec015.jpg)
3 Purchase and Sale Agreement with respect thereto automatically shall be deemed to have been sold by such Originator to the Company on the Closing Date. (b) Subsequent Purchases. After the Closing Date, until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, each Receivable and the Related Rights generated by each Originator shall be deemed to have been sold by such Originator to the Company immediately (and without further action) upon the creation of such Receivable. SECTION 1.3 Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to make Purchase Price payments to the Originators in accordance with Article III and to reflect all contributions in accordance with Section 3.1. SECTION 1.4 Purchase and Sale Termination Date. The “Purchase and Sale Termination Date” shall be the earliest to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated pursuant to Section 8.2 and (b) the Payment Date immediately following the day on which the Originators shall have given written notice to the Company, the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) that the Originators desire to terminate this Agreement. SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Company that each conveyance by such Originator to the Company pursuant to this Agreement of the Receivables and Related Rights, including without limitation, all Receivables, if any, constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights be construed as a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Receivables and Related Rights by such Originator to the Company (rather than the grant of a security interest to secure a debt or other obligation of such Originator) and that the right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Company be prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including, without limitation, lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator. The parties acknowledge that an outright sale of Receivables and interests in Receivables is governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of New York and the states in which the parties may be organized or otherwise have a presence (without distinguishing the applicable jurisdiction, “Article 9”), notwithstanding that such a sale is not intended for security. The parties also acknowledge that, as a drafting convention under Article 9, terms used under Article 9 for secured transactions also apply to outright sales of receivables, including “debtor”, which applies to a seller of receivables, “secured party”, which applies to a buyer of receivables, and “security interest”, which applies to the buyer’s outright ownership interest. Thus, such terms, and other terms used in Article 9, will apply to this Agreement, and may be used in this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement and such use does not affect the nature of the outright sale of the Receivables by an Originator to the Company. Thus, under the Article 9 drafting convention, the out-right sale of the Receivables may be described as a transaction by which the Originators have granted to the Company a security interest in, among other things, the Receivables. However, if, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties, any conveyance of Receivables and Related Rights, including without limitation any Receivables constituting general intangibles, is not construed to be both a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment of such Receivables and Related Rights, and a conveyance of such Receivables and Related Rights that is prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including without limitation lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator, then, it is the intent
![slide16](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec016.jpg)
4 Purchase and Sale Agreement of such Originator and the Company that (i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC; and (ii) such Originator shall be deemed to have granted to the Company as of the date of this Agreement, and such Originator hereby grants to the Company a security interest in, to and under all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to: (A) the Receivables and the Related Rights now existing and hereafter created by such Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder, (B) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto, (C) all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing, and (D) all proceeds and products of any of the foregoing to secure all of such Originator’s obligations hereunder. ARTICLE II PURCHASE REPORT; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE SECTION 2.1 Purchase Report. On the Closing Date and on each date when a Monthly Report is due to be delivered under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (each such date, a “Monthly Purchase Report Date”), the Servicer shall deliver to the Company and each Originator a report in substantially the form of Exhibit A (each such report being herein called a “Purchase Report”) setting forth, among other things: (a) Receivables purchased (or, in the case of Contributed Receivables, received) by the Company from each Originator on the Closing Date (in the case of the Purchase Report to be delivered on the Closing Date); (b) Receivables purchased (or, in the case of Contributed Receivables, received) by the Company from each Originator during the period commencing on the Monthly Purchase Report Date immediately preceding such Monthly Purchase Report Date to (but not including) such Monthly Purchase Report Date (in the case of each subsequent Purchase Report); and (c) the calculations of reductions of the Purchase Price for any Receivables as provided in Section 3.3(a) and (b). SECTION 2.2 Calculation of Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator for the Receivables that are purchased hereunder from such Originator shall be determined in accordance with the following formula: PP = OB x FMVD where: PP = Purchase Price for each Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date. OB = The Outstanding Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date. FMVD = Fair Market Value Discount, as measured on such Payment Date, which is equal to the quotient (expressed as percentage) of (a) one
![slide17](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec017.jpg)
5 Purchase and Sale Agreement divided by (b) the sum of (i) one, plus (ii) the product of (A) the Prime Rate on such Payment Date, and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Days’ Sales Outstanding (calculated as of the last Business Day of the calendar month next preceding such Payment Date) and the denominator of which is 365. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference in this Agreement or any Transaction Document to any monetary amount (other than an amount denominated in U.S. dollars) shall mean the U.S. Dollar Equivalent (as such term is defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) of such monetary amount at the time of determination thereof. “Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originators are open for business. “Prime Rate” means a per annum rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal or if such information ceases to be published in The Wall Street Journal, such other publication as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. ARTICLE III PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE SECTION 3.1 Contribution of Receivables and Initial Purchase Price Payment. (a) On the Closing Date, Xxxxxx shall, and hereby does, contribute to the capital of the Company, Receivables and Related Rights consisting of each Receivable of Xxxxxx that existed and was owing to Xxxxxx on the Closing Date beginning with the oldest of such Receivables and continuing chronologically thereafter such that the aggregate Outstanding Balance of all such Contributed Receivables shall be equal to $10,000,000. (b) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the purchase to be made from such Originator on the Closing Date partially in cash (in an amount to be agreed between the Company and such Originator and set forth in the initial Purchase Report) and partially by issuing a promissory note in the form of Exhibit B to such Originator with an initial principal balance equal to the remaining Purchase Price (each such promissory note, as it may be amended, supplemented, endorsed or otherwise modified from time to time, together with all promissory notes issued from time to time in substitution therefor or renewal thereof in accordance with the Transaction Documents, each being herein called a “Company Note”). SECTION 3.2 Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables generated by such Originator on such Payment Date: (i) First, in cash to the extent the Company has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and/or, if requested by such Originator, in consideration for causing the LC Bank

Exhibit B Exhibit B-6 Purchase and Sale Agreement Interests; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and the Administrator may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons. 10. General. No failure or delay on the part of Originator in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Company Note shall in any event be effective unless (i) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Company and Holder and (ii) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons. 11. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Company Note to the contrary, the Company shall never be re-quired to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at a rate in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received under applicable federal or state law (such maximum rate being herein called the “Highest Lawful Rate”). If the effective rate of interest which would otherwise by payable under this Company Note would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of this Company Note shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Company under this Company Note to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Company under this Company Note shall be reduced to the amount allowed by applicable law, and (ii) any unearned interest paid by the Company or any interest paid by the Company in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be refunded to the Company. Without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by Originator under this Company Note that are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to Originator (such Highest Lawful Rate being herein called the “Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate”) shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to Originator (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the actual period during which any amount has been outstanding hereunder all interest at any time contract-ed for, charged or received by Originator in connection herewith. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to Originator on any date shall be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to Originator would be less than the amount of interest payable to Originator computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate, then the amount of interest payable to Originator in respect of such sub-sequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to Originator shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to Originator if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to the provisions of the foregoing sentence. 12. Governing Law. THIS COMPANY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Seller may, from time to time before the Facility Termination Date, (i) request that the Purchasers ratably make purchases with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller from time to time from the date hereof to the Facility Termination Date in accordance with Section 1.2. Each purchase requested by the Seller shall be made ratably by the respective Purchaser Groups, and each Purchaser Group’s ratable share of each purchase shall be made and funded (x) if such Purchaser Group contains a Conduit Purchaser and such Conduit Purchaser elects (in its sole discretion) to make and fund such portion of such Purchase, by such Conduit Purchaser, or (y) if such Purchaser Group does not contain a Conduit Purchaser or if the Conduit Purchaser in such Purchaser Group declines (in its sole discretion) to make or fund such portion of such Purchase, by the Related Committed Purchaser in such Purchaser Group and (ii) request that the LC Bank issue or cause the issuance of Letters of Credit, in each case subject to the terms hereof (each such purchase, reinvestment or issuance is referred to herein as a “Purchase”). Subject to Section 1.4(b), concerning reinvestments, at no time will a Conduit Purchaser have any obligation to make a purchase. Each Related Committed Purchaser severally hereby agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, to make purchases of and reinvestments in undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller from time to time from the date hereof to the Facility Termination Date, based on the applicable Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of each purchase requested pursuant to Section 1.2(a) (and, in the case of each Related Committed Purchaser, its Commitment Percentage of its Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of such Purchase) and, on the terms of and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the LC Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit in return for (and each LC Participant hereby severally agrees to make participation advances in connection with any draws under such Letters of Credit equal to such LC Participant’s Pro Rata Share of such draws), undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller from time to time from the date hereof to the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall any Purchaser make any purchase or reinvestment or issue any Letters of Credit hereunder, as applicable, if, after giving effect to such Purchase, the (i) aggregate outstanding amount of the Capital funded by such Purchaser, when added to all other Capital funded by all other Purchasers in such Purchaser’s Purchaser Group would exceed (A) its Purchaser Group’s Group Commitment (as the same may be reduced from time to time pursuant to Section 1.1(c)) minus (B) the related LC Participant’s Pro Rata Share of the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit or (ii) the aggregate outstanding Capital plus the LC Participation Amount would exceed the Purchase Limit. The Seller may, subject to the requirements and conditions herein, use the proceeds of any purchase by the Purchasers, hereunder, to satisfy its Reimbursement Obligation to the LC Bank and the LC Participants (ratably, based on the outstanding amounts funded by the LC Bank and each such LC Participant) pursuant to Section 1.15 below.

H:\My Documents\Xxxxxx Tire Closing\Executed Documents\Final RPA.docx 3 (b) Not more than three (3) times after the First Omnibus Amendment Effective Date so long as no Purchase and Sale Termination Event or Unmatured Purchase and Sale Termination Event exists and is continuing, the Seller (or the Servicer, on the Seller’s behalf) may, by written notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, request that each of the Purchasers ratably increase their respective Commitments, in an aggregate amount such that after giving effect to all such requests, the Purchase Limit shall not exceed $150,000,000. Upon receipt of such request, each of the Purchasers severally agrees to promptly seek credit approval to increase such Purchaser’s Commitment in its ratable amount of the aggregate increase requested; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a commitment by any Purchaser to provide, or to obtain credit approval to provide, any portion of the requested increase. If any Purchaser declines to provide its ratable share of the requested increase or does not respond to the request for increase within fifteen (15) days from the date of delivery of notice to such Purchaser, the Seller may offer all or any portion of such Purchaser’s ratable share to one or more other Purchasers (such that such willing Purchasers’ increase in their Commitments exceed each such Purchaser’s ratable share) who may, in each such Purchaser’s sole discretion, seek credit approval therefor (and provide the declining Purchaser’s ratable share of the requested increase), and if such Purchaser’s decline, the Seller may offer such ratable share to one or more Eligible Assignees. If the Commitment of any Purchaser is increased in accordance with this Section 1.1(b), the Administrator, the Purchaser, the Seller and the Servicer shall determine the effective date with respect to such increase and shall enter into such documents as agreed by such parties to document such increase and, if applicable, rebalance Capital among the Purchasers such that after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding Capital of the Purchasers is distributed ratably among the Purchasers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 6.1, the Administrator and the Seller are expressly permitted, without the consent of the other Purchasers, to amend (or amend and restate) the Transaction Documents to the extent necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrator solely to give effect to any increase pursuant to this Section 1.1(b); provided that no such amendment (or amendment and restatement) shall adversely affect the rights or interests of any Purchaser; provided, further, that, by way of clarification, no provision of any such amendment (or amendment and restatement) that effects the provisions of this Section 1.1(b) shall be deemed to adversely affect the rights or interests of any Purchaser. (c) The Seller may, upon at least 30 days’ written notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, reduce the Purchase Limit in whole or in part (but not below the amount equal to the sum of Aggregate Capital plus the LC Participation Amount); provided that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and that, unless terminated in whole, the Purchase Limit shall in no event be reduced below $20,000,000. Each reduction in the Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Purchasers in accordance with their respective pro rata shares. The Administrator shall promptly advise the Purchaser Agents of any notice received by it pursuant to this Section 1.1(c); it being understood that (in addition to and without limiting any other requirements for termination, prepayment and/or the funding of the LC Collateral Account hereunder) no such termination or reduction shall be effective unless and until, in the case of a termination, the amount on deposit in the LC Collateral Account is at least equal to the then outstanding LC Participation Amount plus the LC Fee Expectation.

(a) Each Funded Purchase (but not reinvestment) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder may be made on any day upon the Seller’s irrevocable written notice in the form of Annex B (each, a “Purchase Notice”) delivered to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent in accordance with Section 6.2 not later than (i) 2:00 p.m. New York City time on the date that is one Business Day prior to the requested Purchase Date or (ii) solely in the case of a Funded Purchase in an amount less than or equal to $50,000,000, 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the requested Purchase Date, in either case, which notice shall specify: (A) in the case of a Funded Purchase, the amount requested to be paid to the Seller (such amount, which shall not be less than $300,000 (or such lesser amount as agreed to by the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents) and shall be in integral multiples of $100,000, with respect to each Purchaser Group, (B) the date of such Funded Purchase (which shall be a Business Day) and (C) the pro forma calculation of the Purchased Interest after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Capital. For security purposes, the amount of Xxxxx Fargo’s ratable share of the Aggregate Capital requested in each Funded Purchase shall also be entered by the Seller into Xxxxx Fargo’s online “C.E.O. portal,” or funding may be delayed pending telephonic verification of such amount. If any Purchase Notice is received or confirmed after the time specified in the first sentence of this Section 1.2(a), the Purchasers will endeavor to honor such notice on that Business Day but will honor it not later than the next succeeding Business Day. (b) On the date of each Funded Purchase (but not reinvestment or issuance of a Letter of Credit) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder, each applicable Conduit Purchaser or Related Committed Purchaser, as the case may be, shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Exhibit II, make available to the Seller in same day funds, at such account as may be so designated in writing by the Seller to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent from time to time an amount equal to the portion of Capital relating to the undivided percentage ownership interest then being funded by such Purchaser. (c) Effective on the date of each Funded Purchase or other Purchase pursuant to this Section 1.2 and each reinvestment pursuant to Section 1.4, the Seller hereby sells and assigns to the Administrator for the benefit of the Purchasers (ratably, based on the sum of Capital plus the LC Participation Amount outstanding at such time for each such Purchaser’s Capital) an undivided percentage ownership interest in: (i) each Pool Receivable then existing, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, and (iii) all Collections with respect to, and other proceeds of, such Pool Receivables and Related Security. (d) To secure all of the Seller’s obligations (monetary or otherwise) under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, whether now or hereafter existing or arising, due or to become due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, the Seller hereby grants to the Administrator, for the benefit of the Purchasers, a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest (including any undivided interest of the Seller) in, to and under all of the following, whether now or hereafter owned, existing or arising: (i) all Pool Receivables, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iii) all Collections with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iv)(A) the Lock-Box Accounts and all amounts on deposit therein, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such Lock-Box Accounts and

H:\My Documents\Xxxxxx Tire Closing\Executed Documents\Final RPA.docx 5 amounts on deposit therein and (B) the LC Collateral Account and all amounts on deposit therein, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such LC Collateral Account and amounts on deposit therein, (v) all rights (but none of the obligations) of the Seller under the Sale Agreement, (vi) all proceeds of, and all amounts received or receivable under any or all of, the foregoing and (vii) all of its other property (collectively, the “Pool Assets”). The Seller hereby authorizes the Administrator to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby as “all of the debtor's personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the collateral described in this Agreement. The Administrator, for the benefit of the Purchasers, shall have, with respect to the Pool Assets, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Administrator and the Purchasers, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC. The Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the Existing Agreement, the Seller granted to the Administrator a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Pool Assets (as defined in the Existing Agreement). The Seller hereby confirms such security interest and acknowledges and agrees that such security interest is continuing and is supplemented by the security interest granted by the Seller pursuant to this Section 1.2(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph of this clause (d), the Seller, the Administrator, the Purchaser Agents, the Purchasers and all other parties to this Agreement intend and agree to treat, for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax (in the nature of income tax) purposes only, the sale, assignment and transfer of the Purchased Interest to the Administrator (on behalf of the Purchasers) as a loan to the Seller secured by the Purchased Interest. The provisions of this Agreement and all related Transaction Documents shall be construed to further these intentions of the parties. (e) [Reserved]. (f) The Seller may, with the written consent of the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent (and, in the case of a new related LC Participant, the LC Bank), add additional Persons as Purchasers (either to an existing Purchaser Group or by creating new Purchaser Groups) or cause an existing Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant to increase its Commitment in connection with a corresponding increase in the Purchase Limit; provided, however, that the Commitment of any Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant may only be increased with the prior written consent of such Purchaser. Each new Conduit Purchaser, Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant (or Purchaser Group) shall become a party hereto, by executing and delivering to the Administrator and the Seller, an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex C hereto (which Assumption Agreement shall, in the case of any new Conduit Purchaser, Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant, be executed by each Person in such new Purchaser’s Purchaser Group). (g) Each Related Committed Purchaser’s and related LC Participant’s obligations hereunder shall be several, such that the failure of any Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant to make a payment in connection with any purchase hereunder, or drawing under a Letter of Credit hereunder, as the case may be, shall not relieve any other Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make payment for any Funded Purchase or such drawing. Further, in the event any Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant fails to satisfy its obligation to make a purchase or payment with respect to such

H:\My Documents\Xxxxxx Tire Closing\Executed Documents\Final RPA.docx 6 drawing as required hereunder, upon receipt of notice of such failure from the Administrator (or any relevant Purchaser Agent), subject to the limitations set forth herein, the non-defaulting Related Committed Purchasers or related LC Participants in such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s or related LC Participant’s Purchaser Group shall fund the defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s or related LC Participant’s Commitment Percentage of the related Purchase or drawing pro rata in proportion to their relative Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to the Commitment Percentage of the defaulting Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant; it being understood that a defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s or related LC Participant’s Commitment Percentage of any Purchase or drawing shall be first put to the Related Committed Purchasers or related LC Participants in such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s or related LC Participant’s Purchaser Group and thereafter if there are no other Related Committed Purchasers or related LC Participants in such Purchaser Group or if such other Related Committed Purchasers or related LC Participants are also defaulting Related Committed Purchasers or related LC Participants, then such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s or related LC Participant’s Commitment Percentage of such Purchase or drawing shall be put to each other Purchaser Group ratably and applied in accordance with this paragraph (g)). Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph (g) to the contrary, no Related Committed Purchaser or related LC Participant shall be required to make a Purchase or payment with respect to such drawing pursuant to this paragraph for an amount which would cause the aggregate Capital of such Related Committed Purchaser or Pro Rata Share of the face amount of any outstanding Letter of Credit of such related LC Participant (after giving effect to such Purchase or payment with respect to such drawing) to exceed its Commitment. Section 1.3 Purchased Interest Computation. The Purchased Interest shall be initially computed on the First Omnibus Amendment Effective Date. Thereafter, until the Facility Termination Date, such Purchased Interest shall be automatically recomputed (or deemed to be recomputed) on each Business Day other than a Termination Day. From and after the occurrence of any Termination Day, the Purchased Interest shall (until the event(s) giving rise to such Termination Day are satisfied or are waived by the Administrator in accordance with Section 2.2) be deemed to be 100%. The Purchased Interest shall become zero on the Final Payout Date. Section 1.4 Settlement Procedures. (a) The collection of the Pool Receivables shall be administered by the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement. The Seller shall provide to the Servicer on a timely basis all information needed for such administration, including notice of the occurrence of any Termination Day and current computations of the Purchased Interest. (b) The Servicer shall, on each day on which Collections of Pool Receivables are received (or deemed received) by the Seller or the Servicer: (i) set aside and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator) for the benefit of each Purchaser Group, out of such Collections, first, an amount equal to the Aggregate Discount accrued through such day for each Portion of Capital and not previously set aside, second, an amount equal to the fees set forth in each Purchaser Group Fee Letter accrued and unpaid through such day, and third, to the extent funds are available therefor, an amount equal to

Such remainder shall, to the extent representing a return on the Aggregate Capital, ratably, according to each Purchaser’s Capital, be automatically reinvested in Pool Receivables, and in the Related Security, Collections and other proceeds with respect thereto; provided, however, that if the Purchased Interest would exceed 100%, then the Servicer shall not reinvest, but shall set aside and hold in trust for the benefit of the Purchasers (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator) a portion of such Collections that, together with the other Collections set aside pursuant to this paragraph, shall equal the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%, which amount shall be deposited ratably to each Purchaser Agent’s account (for the benefit of its related Purchasers) on the next Settlement Date in accordance with Section 1.4(c); provided, further, that (x) in the case of any Purchaser that is a Conduit Purchaser, if such Purchaser has provided notice (a “Declining Notice”) to its Purchaser Agent, the Administrator, and the Servicer that such Purchaser (a “Declining Conduit Purchaser”) no longer wishes Collections with respect to any Portion of Capital funded or maintained by such Purchaser to be reinvested pursuant to this clause (ii), and (y) in the case of any Purchaser that has provided notice (an “Exiting Notice”) to its Purchaser Agent of its refusal, pursuant to Section 1.22, to extend its Commitment hereunder (an “Exiting Purchaser”) then in either case (x) or (y), above, such Collections shall not be reinvested and shall instead be held in trust for the benefit of such Purchaser and applied in accordance with clause (iii), below, (iii) if such day is a Termination Day (or any day following the provision of a Declining Notice or an Exiting Notice), set aside, segregate and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator, segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator) for the benefit of each Purchaser Group the entire remainder of such Collections (or in the case of a Declining Conduit Purchaser or an Exiting Purchaser an amount equal to such Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections based on its Capital); provided that solely for the purpose of determining such Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections, such Purchaser’s Capital shall be deemed to remain constant from the date of the provision of a Declining Notice or an Exiting Notice, as the case may be, until the date such Purchaser’s Capital has been paid in full; it being understood that if such day is also a Termination Day, such Declining Conduit Purchaser’s or Exiting Purchaser’s Capital shall be recalculated taking into account amounts received by such Purchaser in respect of this parenthetical and thereafter Collections shall be set aside for such Purchaser ratably in respect of its Capital (as recalculated)); provided that if amounts are set aside and held in trust on any day following the provision of a Declining Notice or an Exiting Notice and, thereafter, such Declining Notice or Exiting Notice, as the case may be, has been revoked by the related Declining Conduit Purchaser or Exiting Purchaser, respectively and written notice thereof has been provided to the Administrator, the related Purchaser Agent and the Servicer), such previously set-aside amounts shall, to the extent representing a return on the Capital of the Declining Conduit Purchaser or Exiting Purchaser, as the case may be,

(a) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the LC Bank will promptly notify the Administrator and the Seller of such request. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Seller shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the LC Bank shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the LC Bank prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time on the first Business Day after the date that an amount is paid by the LC Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the LC Bank. In the event the Seller fails to reimburse the LC Bank for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Drawing Date (including because the conditions precedent to a Purchase requested by the Seller pursuant to Section 1.2 shall not have been satisfied), the LC Bank will promptly notify each LC Participant thereof. Any notice given by the LC Bank pursuant to this Section may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. (b) Each LC Participant shall upon any notice pursuant to clause (a) above make available to the LC Bank an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the drawing (a “Participation Advance”), whereupon the LC Participants shall each be deemed to have made a Purchase in that amount.

In the event that the Purchasers are all agreeable to such extension, the Administrator shall so notify the Seller in writing (it being understood that the Purchasers may accept or decline such a request in their sole discretion and on such terms as they may elect) not less than 30 days prior to the then current Facility Termination Date scheduled to occur pursuant to clause (a) of the definition thereof and the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Purchaser Agents and the Purchasers shall enter into such documents as the Purchasers may deem necessary or appropriate to reflect such extension, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Purchasers, the Administrator and the Purchaser Agents in connection therewith (including reasonable Attorney Costs) shall be paid by the Seller. In the event any Purchaser declines the request for such extension, such Purchaser (or the applicable Purchaser Agent on its behalf) shall so notify the Administrator and the Administrator shall so notify the Seller of such determination; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrator to notify the Seller of the determination to decline such extension shall not affect the understanding and agreement that the applicable Purchasers shall be deemed to have refused to grant the requested extension in the event the Administrator fails to affirmatively notify the Seller, in writing, of their agreement to accept the requested extension.

For the avoidance of doubt, while the occurrence of a Termination Event shall result in the termination of Purchases under this Agreement, in no event will the occurrence of a Termination Event be deemed to permit the Administrator or the Purchaser Agents to demand prepayment, repurchase, defeasance or redemption of the outstanding Capital.

Without limiting any other rights any such Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller hereby indemnifies and holds harmless, on an after-tax basis, the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent, each Liquidity Provider, each Program Support Provider and each Purchaser and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, Taxes, costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) (all of the foregoing collectively, the “Indemnified Amounts”) at any time imposed on or incurred by any Indemnified Party arising out of or otherwise relating to any Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated thereby or the acquisition of any portion of the Purchased Interest, or any action taken or omitted by any of the Indemnified Parties (including any action taken by the Administrator as attorney-in-fact for the Seller or any Originator hereunder or under any other Transaction Document), whether arising by reason of the acts to be performed by the Seller hereunder or otherwise, excluding only Indemnified Amounts to the extent (a) a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification, (b) due to the credit risk of the Obligor and for which reimbursement would constitute recourse to any Originator, the Seller or the Servicer for uncollectible Receivables or (c) such Indemnified Amounts include Taxes imposed or based on, or measured by, the gross or net income or receipts of such Indemnified Party by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Indemnified Party is organized (or any political subdivision thereof); provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of the Seller or the Servicer or limit the recourse of any Indemnified Party to the Seller or the Servicer for any amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing indemnification, but subject to the limitations set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the previous sentence, the Seller shall indemnify each Indemnified Party for Amounts (including losses in respect of uncollectible Receivables, regardless, for purposes of these specific matters, whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to the Seller or the Servicer) relating to or resulting from: (i) any representation or warranty made by the Seller (or any employee or agent of the Seller) under or in connection with this Agreement, any Information Package or any other information or report delivered by or on behalf of the Seller pursuant hereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any respect when made or deemed made; (ii) the failure by the Seller to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation related to any Receivable, or the nonconformity of any Receivable with any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

Section 5.9 Successor Administrator. The Administrator may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ notice (unless a Termination Event exists, then upon ten (10 ) days’ notice) to the Seller, each Purchaser and Purchaser Agent, resign as Administrator. Such resignation shall not become effective until a successor Administrator is appointed by the Majority Purchaser Agents with the consent of the Seller (provided that no such consent shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and no such consent shall be required (a) if a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or (b) if the appointed successor is one of the existing Purchaser Agents) and such appointee has accepted such appointment. Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Administrator hereunder by a successor Administrator, such successor Administrator shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrator, and the retiring Administrator shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents. After any retiring Administrator’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 and this Article V shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrator.

No failure on the part of the Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents, the LC Bank or the Administrator to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. Section 6.2 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including e-mail communication) and shall be personally delivered or sent by e-mail, or by overnight mail, to the intended party at the mailing address or e-mail address of such party set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof (or in any other document or agreement pursuant to which it is or became a party hereto), or at such other address or e-mail address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be effective (i) if delivered by overnight mail, when received, and (ii) if transmitted by or e-mail, when sent, receipt confirmed by telephone or electronic means.

Section 6.3 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Assignments. (a) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.1(d), neither the Seller nor the Servicer may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder or under any Transaction Document without the prior consent of the Administrator, the LC Bank and each Purchaser Agent. (b) Participations. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any Purchaser may sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in the interests of such Purchaser hereunder; provided, however, that no Purchaser shall grant any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for performing its obligations hereunder, and the Seller, each Purchaser Agent and the Administrator shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser’s rights and obligations hereunder. A Purchaser shall not agree with a Participant to restrict such Purchaser’s right to agree to any amendment hereto, except amendments that require the consent of all Purchasers. Any such Participant shall not have any rights hereunder or under the Transaction Documents. Each Related Committed Purchaser that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Seller, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Capital or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Related Committed Purchaser shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Capital, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Capital, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Related Committed Purchaser shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such

For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator (in its capacity as Administrator) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. (c) Assignments by Certain Related Committed Purchasers. Any Related Committed Purchaser may assign to one or more Persons (each a “Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser”), reasonably acceptable to the Administrator, the LC Bank and the related Purchaser Agent in its sole discretion, any portion of its Commitment (which shall be inclusive of its Commitment as an LC Participant) pursuant to a supplement hereto, substantially in the form of Annex D with any changes as have been approved by the parties thereto (each, a “Transfer Supplement”), executed by each such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser, such selling Related Committed Purchaser, such related Purchaser Agent and the Administrator and with the consent of the Seller (provided, that no such consent shall be unreasonably withheld or delayed and that no such consent shall be required if a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing). Any such assignment by Related Committed Purchaser cannot be for an amount less than $10,000,000. Upon (i) the execution of the Transfer Supplement, (ii) delivery of an executed copy thereof to the Seller, such related Purchaser Agent and the Administrator and (iii) payment by the Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser to the selling Related Committed Purchaser of the agreed purchase price, if any, such selling Related Committed Purchaser shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Related Committed Purchaser party hereto and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Related Committed Purchaser hereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto. The amount of the Commitment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser allocable to such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser shall be equal to the amount of the Commitment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser transferred regardless of the purchase price, if any, paid therefor. The Transfer Supplement shall be an amendment hereof only to the extent necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser as a “Related Committed Purchaser” and a related “LC Participant” and any resulting adjustment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser’s Commitment. (d) Assignments to Liquidity Providers and other Program Support Providers. Any Conduit Purchaser may at any time grant to one or more of its Liquidity Providers or other Program Support Providers, participating interests in its portion of the Purchased Interest. In the event of any such grant by such Conduit Purchaser of a participating interest to a Liquidity Provider or other Program Support Provider, such Conduit Purchaser shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder. The Seller agrees that each Liquidity Provider and Program Support Provider of any Conduit Purchaser hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 1.7. (e) Other Assignment by Conduit Purchasers. Each party hereto agrees and consents (i) to any Conduit Purchaser’s assignment, participation, grant of security interests in or other transfers of any portion of, or any of its beneficial interest in, the Purchased Interest (or portion thereof), including without limitation to any collateral agent in connection with its commercial paper program and (ii) to the complete assignment by any Conduit Purchaser of all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Person, and upon such assignment such Conduit Purchaser shall be released from all obligations and duties, if any, hereunder; provided, however, that such Conduit Purchaser may not, without the prior consent of its Related Committed Purchasers, make

Such Conduit Purchaser shall promptly (i) notify each of the other parties hereto of such assignment and (ii) take all further action that the assignee reasonably requests in order to evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in such interest in the Purchased Interest and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights of such Conduit Purchaser hereunder. Upon the assignment of any portion of its interest in the Purchased Interest, the assignee shall have all of the rights hereunder with respect to such interest (except that the Discount therefor shall thereafter accrue at the rate, determined with respect to the assigning Conduit Purchaser unless the Seller, the related Purchaser Agent and the assignee shall have agreed upon a different Discount). (f) Certain Pledges. Without limiting the right of any Purchaser to sell or grant interests, security interests or participations to any Person as otherwise described in this Section 6.3, (i) any Purchaser may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure its obligations as a Purchaser hereunder, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank without notice to or the consent of any Person; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Purchaser from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Purchaser as a party hereto and (ii) any Purchaser may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a security trustee in connection with the funding by such Person of Purchases without notice to or the consent of any Person; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Purchaser from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Purchaser as a party hereto.

EXHIBIT C TO OMNIBUS AMENDMENT NO. 1 PERFORMANCE GUARANTY This PERFORMANCE GUARANTY (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Performance Guaranty”), dated as of August 30, 2006, is made by XXXXXX TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY (“Cooper”), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, as performance guarantor (the “Performance Guarantor”), in favor of XXXXX FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as administrator (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrator”) for the benefit of the Purchasers and the Purchaser Agents (and their assigns) under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (as defined below). PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS: (1) Each Originator from time to time party to the below-described Sale Agreement (herein collectively called the “Originators” and individually called an “Originator”) and Xxxxxx Receivables LLC (“SPV”), a Delaware limited liability company, have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of August 30, 2006 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Sale Agreement”), pursuant to which the Originators have and will, from time to time, sell Receivables and related rights and security to SPV. (2) SPV, as seller (the “Seller”), Cooper, as initial servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the various Purchasers and Purchaser Agents from time to time party thereto, and the Administrator have entered into that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 30, 2006 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Seller has and will, from time to time, sell undivided interests in Receivables and Related Security to the Purchasers. Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Receivables Purchase Agreement. (3) Cooper is an Originator and is the direct or indirect owner of 100% of the outstanding voting stock or membership interests of each other Originator and SPV. NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Performance Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: SECTION 1. Unconditional Undertaking; Enforcement. The Performance Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assures for the benefit of the Administrator, the Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents, and each other Indemnified Party and Affected Person the due and punctual performance and observance by each Originator (or any of their respective successors and assigns) of the terms, covenants, conditions, agreements, undertakings and obligations on the part of each such Originator to be performed or observed by each such Person under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, any agreement or obligation of any such Originator to pay any indemnity or make any payment in respect of any applicable dilution adjustment or repurchase obligation under any such Transaction Document (all such terms, covenants, conditions, agreements, undertakings and obligations on the part of each Originator to be paid, performed or observed being collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Performance Guarantor agrees that if any Originator shall fail in any manner whatsoever to perform or observe any of the Guaranteed Obligations when the
![slide182](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec182.jpg)
2 same shall be required to be performed or observed under any applicable Transaction Document, then the Performance Guarantor will itself duly and punctually perform or observe or cause to be performed or observed the Guaranteed Obligations. It shall not be a condition to the accrual of the obligation of any Performance Guarantor hereunder to perform or to observe any Guaranteed Obligation that the Administrator, any Purchaser, or any Purchaser Agent shall have first made any request of or demand upon or given any notice to the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or any of their respective successors and assigns or have initiated any action or proceeding against the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or any of their respective successors and assigns in respect thereof. The Administrator (on behalf of the Purchasers and their assigns) may proceed to enforce the obligations of the Performance Guarantor under this Performance Guaranty without first pursuing or exhausting any right or remedy which the Administrator or any Purchaser may have against any applicable Originator, any other Person, the Receivables or any other property. The Performance Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be irrevocable. For the sake of clarity, it is expressly acknowledged that the Guaranteed Obligations do not include any recourse for non-payment or late payment of the Receivables due solely to the bankruptcy, insolvency or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor or for which payment of any Guaranteed Obligations would otherwise constitute recourse to the Performance Guarantor or any Originator for uncollectible Receivables. SECTION 2. Validity of Obligations. The Performance Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (i) the validity, enforceability, avoidance, subordination, discharge, or disaffirmance by any Person (including a trustee in bankruptcy) of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) the absence of any attempt by the Administrator or any Purchaser to collect any Receivables, or to obtain performance or observance of the Guaranteed Obligations from any applicable Originator or any other Person, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Administrator with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) any change of the time, manner or place of performance of, or in any other term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any amendment to or modification of any of the Transaction Documents, (v) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or rights of the Administrator or any Purchaser with respect thereto, (vi) the failure by the Administrator or any Purchaser to take any steps to perfect and maintain perfected its interest in any Receivable or other property or in any security or collateral related to the Guaranteed Obligations, (vii) any failure to obtain any authorization or approval from or other action by or to notify or file with, any governmental authority or regulatory body required in connection with the performance of the obligations hereunder by the Performance Guarantor or (viii) any impossibility or impracticability of performance, illegality, force majeure, any act of government, or other circumstances which might constitute a default available to, or a discharge of any Originator or the Performance Guarantor, or any other circumstance, event or happening whatsoever whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar to or dissimilar to anything referred to above. The Performance Guarantor waives all set-offs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands of performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Performance Guaranty. The Performance Guarantor’s obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall not be limited if the Administrator or any Purchaser is precluded for any reason (including, without limitation, the application of the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code) from enforcing or exercising any right or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Performance Guarantor shall perform or observe, upon demand, the Guaranteed
![slide183](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/24491/000002449120000043/finalomnibusamendmentsec183.jpg)
3 Obligations that would otherwise have been due and performable or observable by the applicable Originator had such right and remedies been permitted to be exercised. SECTION 3. Waiver. The Performance Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of default by any Originator, notice of the incurrence of any Guaranteed Obligation and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Performance Guaranty, and any other document related thereto or to any of the Transaction Documents and any requirement that the Administrator or any Purchaser exhaust any right or take any action against the applicable Originator, any other Person or any property. The Performance Guarantor warrants to the Administrator (for the benefit of the Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents, and the Indemnified Parties and Affected Persons) that it has adequate means to obtain from each Originator on a continuing basis, all information concerning the financial condition of each Originator, and that it is not relying on the Administrator, any Purchaser or any Purchaser Agent to provide such information either now or in the future. SECTION 4. Subrogation. The Performance Guarantor hereby waives all rights of subrogation (whether contractual or otherwise) to the claims, if any, of the Administrator, the Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents and each Indemnified Party and Affected Person against the Originators and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Originator which may otherwise have arisen in connection with this Performance Guaranty.

THE PERFORMANCE GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS PERFORMANCE GUARANTY OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. THE PERFORMANCE GUARANTOR WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY NEW YORK LAW. SECTION 6.
