PURCHASE

SECTION 2.1 Agreement to Sell and Contribute on the Closing Date. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Bank does hereby transfer, assign, sell, contribute and otherwise convey to FTH LLC without recourse (subject to the obligations herein) on the Closing Date all of its right, title, interest, claims and demands in, to and under the Receivables, the Collections after the Cut-Off Date, the Receivable Files and the Related Security relating thereto, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, as evidenced by an assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit A (“Assignment”) delivered on the Closing Date (the “Bank Transferred Assets”). The sale, transfer, assignment, contribution and conveyance made hereunder does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by FTH LLC of any obligation of the Bank to the Obligors, the Dealers, insurers or any other Person in connection with the Receivables or the other assets and properties conveyed hereunder or any agreement, document or instrument related thereto.

SECTION 2.2 Consideration and Payment. In consideration of the transfer of the Bank Transferred Assets conveyed to FTH LLC on the Closing Date, FTH LLC shall pay in cash to the Bank on such date an amount equal to the estimated fair market value of the Bank Transferred Assets on the Closing Date.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

SECTION 3.1 Representations and Warranties of the Bank. The Bank makes the following representations and warranties as of the Closing Date on which FTH LLC will be deemed to have relied in acquiring the Bank Transferred Assets. The representations and warranties will survive the conveyance of the Bank Transferred Assets to FTH LLC pursuant to this Agreement, the conveyance of the Bank Transferred Assets by FTH LLC to the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the conveyance of the Bank Transferred Assets by the Seller to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale Agreement and the Grant thereof by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:

(a) Existence and Power. The Bank is a banking corporation validly existing and has, in all material respects, all power and authority to carry on its business as it is now conducted. The Bank has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction where the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents or affect the enforceability or collectability of the Receivables or any other part of the Bank Transferred Assets.

(b) Authorization and No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by the Bank of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Bank and (ii) do not contravene or constitute a default under (A) any applicable law, rule or regulation, (B) its organizational documents or (C) any material agreement, contract, order or other instrument to which it is a party or its property is


		-2-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

subject (other than, in the case of clauses (A), (B) and (C), violations which do not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of such agreements and which, individually or in the aggregate, would not materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by, or the Bank’s ability to perform its obligations under, the Transaction Documents).

(c) No Consent Required. No approval or authorization by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Bank of any Transaction Document other than (i) UCC filings, (ii) approvals and authorizations that have previously been obtained and filings that have previously been made and (iii) approvals, authorizations or filings which, if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the enforceability or collectability of the Receivables or any other part of the Bank Transferred Assets or would not materially and adversely affect the ability of the Bank to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents.

(d) Binding Effect. Each Transaction Document to which the Bank is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Bank enforceable against the Bank in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and, if applicable, the rights of creditors of corporations from time to time in effect or by general principles of equity.

(e) No Proceedings. There are no Proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Bank, threatened against the Bank before or by any Governmental Authority that (i) assert the invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (ii) seek to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, (iii) seek any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Bank of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the collectability or enforceability of the Receivables, or (iv) relate to the Bank that would materially and adversely affect the federal or Applicable Tax State income, excise, franchise or similar tax attributes of the Notes.

(f) Lien Filings. The Bank is not aware of any material judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against the Bank.

(g) Selection Procedures. No selection procedures believed by the Bank to be adverse to the Noteholders were utilized in selecting the Receivables from the Bank’s portfolio of retail installment sale contracts and installment loans.

(h) Ordinary Course. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Bank is a party are in the ordinary course of the Bank’s business.

(i) Security Interest. No Receivables are pledged, assigned, sold, subject to a security interest or otherwise conveyed other than pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The Bank has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Bank that includes a description of collateral covering any Receivable other than any financing statement


		-3-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

relating to security interests granted under the Transaction Documents or that have been or, prior to the assignment of such Receivables hereunder, will be terminated, amended or released. This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest in the Receivables (other than the Related Security with respect thereto, to the extent that an ownership interest therein cannot be perfected by the filing of a financing statement) in favor of FTH LLC which security interest is prior to all other Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and is enforceable as such against all other creditors of and purchasers and assignees from the Bank.

SECTION 3.2 Representations and Warranties of the Bank as to each Receivable. The Bank hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth on Schedule I as to the Receivables sold, contributed, transferred, assigned and otherwise conveyed to FTH LLC under this Agreement on which such representations and warranties FTH LLC is relying in acquiring the Receivables. Such representations and warranties speak as of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or as of the Cut-off Date, as applicable, but shall survive the conveyance of the Receivables to the Seller under the Purchase Agreement, the conveyance of the Receivables by the Seller to the Issuer under the Sale Agreement and the Grant of the Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Notwithstanding any statement to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Bank shall not be required to notify any insurer with respect to any Insurance Policy obtained by an Obligor or to notify any Dealer about any aspect of the transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Any inaccuracy in any of such representations or warranties shall be deemed not to constitute a breach of such representations or warranties if such inaccuracy does not affect the ability of the Issuer to receive and retain payment in full on such Receivable.

SECTION 3.3 Repurchase upon Breach.

(a) The Bank hereby covenants and agrees that if the Bank discovers or is notified by a Requesting Party with a Repurchase Request regarding a breach of any of the Bank’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 with respect to any Receivable at the time such representations and warranties were made, the Bank will investigate the Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders and triggers a repurchase event (“Repurchase Event”). Upon discovery by any party hereto of a Repurchase Event, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party hereto; provided, that delivery of a Servicer’s Certificate which identifies the Receivables that are being or have been repurchased shall be deemed to constitute prompt written notice of such breach; provided, further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Bank under this Section 3.3(a). Following a Repurchase Event, the Bank shall either (a) correct or cure such breach or (b) repurchase such Receivable from the Issuer, in either case on or before the Payment Date following the end of the Collection Period which includes the sixtieth (60^th) day (or, if the Bank elects, an earlier date) after the date that the Bank became aware of or was notified of and confirmed such breach. Any such breach or failure will be deemed not to have a material adverse effect on the Noteholders or the Issuer if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of the Issuer or the Noteholders to receive and retain payment in full on such Receivable. Any such purchase by the Bank shall be at a price equal to the Repurchase Price. In consideration for such repurchase, the Bank shall make (or shall cause to be made) a payment to the Issuer equal to the Repurchase Price by depositing such amount into the Collection Account prior to 11:00


		-4-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

a.m., New York City time on the date of such repurchase, if such repurchase date is not a Payment Date or, if such repurchase date is a Payment Date, then prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to such repurchase date. Upon payment of such Repurchase Price by the Bank, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall release and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as may be reasonably requested by the Bank to evidence such release, transfer or assignment or more effectively vest in the Bank or its designee any Receivable and the related Bank Transferred Assets repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Bank to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to FTH LLC, the Depositor, the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Delaware Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee.

(b) With respect to all Receivables repurchased by the Bank pursuant to this Agreement, FTH LLC (or its assignee) shall assign, without recourse, representation or warranty, to the Bank all of FTH LLC’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and all security and documents relating thereto.

SECTION 3.4 Dispute Resolution.

(a) If a Requesting Party submits a Repurchase Request to the Bank pursuant to Section 3.3(a) of this Agreement and the Repurchase Request has not been fulfilled or otherwise resolved to the reasonable satisfaction of the Requesting Party within 180 days of the receipt of notice of the request by the Bank, the Requesting Party shall have the right to refer the matter, at its discretion, to either mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 3.4. Dispute resolution to resolve any repurchase request will be available regardless of whether the Noteholders vote to direct an Asset Representations Review.

(b) The Requesting Party will provide notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2 of its intention to refer the matter to mediation (including non-binding arbitration) or binding arbitration, as applicable, to the Bank, with a copy to FTH LLC, the Issuer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. The Bank agrees that it will participate in the resolution method selected by the Requesting Party. Any settlement agreement reached in a mediation and any decision by an arbitrator in a binding arbitration shall be binding upon the Requesting Party, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Receivable that is the subject matter of the Repurchase Request, and, in that situation, issues relating to that Receivable may not be re-litigated by the Requesting Party or the Bank or become the subject of a subsequent Repurchase Request by the Requesting Party in mediation (including non-binding arbitration), arbitration, court, or otherwise.

(i) The mediation will be administered by [a nationally recognized arbitration and mediation association] [one of [identify options]] selected by the Requesting Party pursuant to such association’s mediation procedures in effect at such time.


		-5-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

(ii) The fees and expenses of the mediation will be allocated as mutually agreed by the parties as part of the mediation.

(iii) The mediator will be impartial, knowledgeable about and experienced with the laws of the State of [___] that are relevant to the repurchase dispute and will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by the AAA.

(d) If the Requesting Party selects arbitration (including non-binding arbitration) as the resolution method, the following provisions will apply:

(i) The arbitration will be administered by [a nationally recognized arbitration and mediation association] [one of [identify options]] jointly selected by the parties, and if the Requesting Party and the Bank are unable to agree on an association, by the AAA, and conducted pursuant to such association’s arbitration procedures in effect at such time.

(ii) The arbitrator will be impartial, knowledgeable about and experienced with the laws of the State of [_______] that are relevant to the repurchase dispute and will be appointed from a list of neutrals maintained by AAA.

(iii) The arbitrator will make its final determination no later than [__] days after appointment or as soon as practicable thereafter. The arbitrator will resolve the dispute in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and may not modify or change this Agreement in any way. The arbitrator will not have the power to award punitive damages or consequential damages in any arbitration conducted by it[, and the Bank shall not be required to pay more than the applicable Repurchase Price with respect to any receivable which the Bank is required to repurchase under the terms of this Agreement]. In its final determination, the arbitrator will determine and award the costs of the arbitration (including the fees of the arbitrator, cost of any record or transcript of the arbitration, and administrative fees) and reasonable attorneys’ fees to the Requesting Party and the Bank as determined by the arbitrator in its reasonable discretion. The determination of the arbitrator will be in writing and counterpart copies will be promptly delivered to the Requesting Party and the Bank. For binding arbitration, the determination of the arbitrator will be final and non-appealable (absent manifest error), except for actions to confirm or vacate the determination permitted under federal or state law, and may be entered and enforced in any court with jurisdiction over the Requesting Party and the Bank and the matter.

(iv) By selecting binding arbitration, the Requesting Party waives the right to sue in court, including the right to a trial by jury.

(e) The following provisions will apply to both mediations (including non-binding arbitrations) and arbitrations:

(i) Any mediation or arbitration will be held in [New York, New York] or such other location mutually agreed to by the Requesting Party and the Seller;

(ii) Notwithstanding this dispute resolution provision, the Requesting Party and the Bank will have the right to seek provisional relief from a competent court of law, including a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or attachment order, provided such relief would otherwise be available by law;


		-6-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

Other than as publicly available with the Commission or otherwise publicly disclosed, the details and/or existence of any unfulfilled Repurchase Request, any meetings or discussions regarding any unfulfilled Repurchase Request, mediations or arbitration proceedings conducted under this Section 3.4, including all offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the Requesting Party and the Bank’s attempt to resolve an unfulfilled Repurchase Request, any information exchanged in connection with any mediation, and any discovery taken in connection with any arbitration (collectively, “Confidential Information”), shall be and remain confidential and inadmissible (except as permitted in accordance with applicable law) for any purpose, including impeachment, in any mediation, arbitration or litigation, or other proceeding (including any proceeding under this Section 3.4) other than as required to be disclosed in accordance with applicable law, regulatory requirements, or court order or to the extent that the Bank, in its sole discretion, elects to disclose such information. Such information will be kept strictly confidential and will not be disclosed or discussed with any third party, and except that a party may disclose such information to its own attorneys, experts, accountants and other agents and representatives (collectively “Representatives”), as reasonably required in connection with any resolution procedure under this Section 3.4, if the disclosing party (a) directs such Representatives to keep the information confidential, (b) is responsible for any disclosure by its Representatives of such information and (c) takes at its sole expense all reasonable measures to restrain such Representatives from disclosing such information. If any party receives a subpoena or other request for information from a third party (other than a governmental regulatory body) for Confidential Information, the recipient will promptly notify the other party and will provide the other party with the opportunity to object to the production of its Confidential Information or seek other appropriate protective remedies, consistent with the applicable requirements of law and regulation. If, in the absence of a protective order, such party or any of its representatives are compelled as a matter of law, regulation, legal process or by regulatory authority to disclose any portion of the Confidential Information, such party may disclose to the party compelling disclosure only the part of such Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed.

SECTION 3.5 Protection of Title.

(a) The Bank shall authorize and file such financing statements and cause to be authorized and filed such continuation and other statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of FTH LLC under this Agreement in the Receivables (other than any Related Security with respect thereto, to the extent that the interest of FTH LLC therein cannot be perfected by the filing of a financing statement). The Bank shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to FTH LLC file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing.

(b) The Bank shall notify FTH LLC in writing within ten (10) days following the occurrence of (i) any change in the Bank’s organizational structure as a banking corporation, (ii) any change in the Bank’s “location” (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) and (iii) any change in the Bank’s name and shall take all action prior to


		-7-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

making such change (or shall have made arrangements to take such action substantially simultaneously with such change, if it is not practicable to take such action in advance) reasonably necessary or advisable in the opinion of FTH LLC to amend all previously filed financing statements or continuation statements described in paragraph (a) above. The Bank will at all times maintain its “location” within the United States.

(c) The Bank shall maintain (or shall cause the Servicer to maintain) its computer systems so that, from time to time after the conveyance under this Agreement of the Receivables, the master computer records (including any backup archives) that refer to a Receivable shall indicate clearly the interest of FTH LLC (or any subsequent assignee of FTH LLC) in such Receivable and that such Receivable is owned by such Person. Indication of such Person’s interest in a Receivable shall not be deleted from or modified on such computer systems until, and only until, the related Receivable shall have been paid in full or repurchased.

(d) If at any time the Bank shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any interest in motor vehicle receivables to any prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee, the Bank shall give to such prospective purchaser, lender or other transferee computer tapes, records or printouts (including any restored from backup archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Receivable, shall indicate clearly that such Receivable has been sold and is owned by FTH LLC (or any subsequent assignee of FTH LLC).

SECTION 3.6 Other Liens or Interests. Except for the conveyances and grants of security interests pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Bank shall not sell, pledge, assign or transfer the Receivables or other property transferred to FTH LLC to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any interest therein, and the Bank shall defend the right, title and interest of FTH LLC in, to and under such Receivables or other property transferred to FTH LLC against all claims of third parties claiming through or under the Bank.

SECTION 3.7 Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants. The perfection representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Schedule II hereto are true and correct to the extent that they are applicable.

SECTION 3.8 Official Record. So long as the Notes remain outstanding, this Agreement shall be treated as an official record of the Bank within the meaning of Section 13(e) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. Section 1823(e)).

SECTION 3.9 [Compliance with the FDIC Rule. The Bank (i) shall perform the covenants set forth in Article XII of the Indenture applicable to it and (ii) shall facilitate compliance with Article XII of the Indenture by the Fifth Third Parties.]

SECTION 3.10 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the Bank. Any Person (i) into which the Bank may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, to which it may sell or transfer its business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, (ii) resulting from any merger, sale, transfer, conversion, or consolidation to which the Bank shall be a party, (iii) succeeding to the business of the Bank, or (iv) more than 50% of the voting stock or voting power and 50% or more of the economic equity of which is owned


		-8-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

directly or indirectly by Fifth Third Bancorp, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Bank under this Agreement, will be the successor to the Bank under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Bank enters into any of the foregoing transactions and is not the surviving entity, the Bank will deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either (A) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all financing statements and continuation statements and amendments thereto have been executed and filed that are necessary to preserve and protect the interest of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, respectively, in the Receivables or (B) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to preserve and protect such interest.

SECTION 3.11 The Bank May Own Notes. The Bank, and any Affiliate of the Bank, may in its individual or any other capacity become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Bank or an Affiliate thereof, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents. Except as set forth herein or in the other Transaction Documents, Notes so owned by the Bank or any such Affiliate will have an equal and proportionate benefit under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, without preference, priority, or distinction as among all of the Notes. Unless all Notes are owned by the Issuer, the Bank, the Servicer, the Administrator or any of their respective Affiliates, any Notes owned by the Issuer, the Bank, the Servicer, the Administrator or any of their respective Affiliates shall be disregarded with respect to the determination of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, vote or waiver hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

ARTICLE IV

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 4.1 Transfers Intended as Sale; Security Interest.

(a) Each of the parties hereto expressly intends and agrees that the transfers contemplated and effected under this Agreement are complete and absolute sales, transfers, assignments and contributions rather than pledges or assignments of only a security interest and shall be given effect as such for all purposes. It is further the intention of the parties hereto that the Receivables and the related Bank Transferred Assets shall not be part of the Bank’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of the Bank. The sales and transfers by the Bank of the Receivables and the related Bank Transferred Assets hereunder are and shall be without recourse to, or representation or warranty (express or implied) by, the Bank, except as otherwise specifically provided herein. The limited rights of recourse specified herein against the Bank are intended to provide a remedy for breach of representations and warranties relating to the condition of the property sold, rather than to the collectability of the Receivables.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Receivables and other Bank Transferred Assets are held to be property of the Bank, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create indebtedness or a security interest in the Receivables and other Bank Transferred Assets, then it is intended that:


		-9-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

(i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction;

(ii) The conveyance provided for in Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be a grant by the Bank of, and the Bank hereby grants to FTH LLC, a security interest in all of its right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the Receivables and other Bank Transferred Assets, to secure such indebtedness and the performance of the obligations of the Bank hereunder;

(iii) The possession by FTH LLC or its agent of the Receivable Files and any other property that constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by FTH LLC or a Person designated by FTH LLC, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC and the UCC of any other applicable jurisdiction; and

(iv) Notifications to Persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of FTH LLC for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.

SECTION 4.2 Notices, Etc. All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered or mailed by registered or certified first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, hand delivery, prepaid courier service, or by facsimile or email (if an applicable facsimile number or email address is provided on Schedule I to the Sale Agreement), and addressed in each case as specified on Schedule I to the Sale Agreement, or at such other address as shall be designated by any of the specified addressees in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Any notice required or permitted to be mailed to a Noteholder shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Noteholder as shown in the Note Register. Delivery shall occur only upon receipt or reported tender of such communication by an officer of the recipient entitled to receive such notices located at the address of such recipient for notices hereunder; provided, however, that any notice to a Noteholder mailed within the time and manner prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Noteholder shall receive such notice.

SECTION 4.3 Choice of Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL, SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE RULES THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAW, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

SECTION 4.4 Headings. The section headings hereof have been inserted for convenience only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Agreement.


		-10-		Receivables Sale Agreement (20[ ]-[ ])

SECTION 4.5 Counterparts and Electronic Signature. This Agreement shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party only when executed by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an electronic signature that complies with the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, in each case to the extent applicable; (ii) an original manual signature; or (iii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature. Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but such counterparts shall, together, constitute only one instrument.
