AMENDED AND RESTATED RECEIVABLES SALE AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED RECEIVABLES SALE AGREEMENT, dated as of February 27, 2017, is by and between AVNET, INC., a New York corporation (“Originator”), and AVNET RECEIVABLES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”). Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I hereto (or, if not defined in Exhibit I hereto, the meaning assigned to such term in Exhibit I to the Purchase Agreement).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Originator from time to time originates Receivables.

Originator and Buyer are parties to that certain Receivables Sale Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2001 (the “Initial Closing Date”), as last amended by Amendment No. 10 thereto, dated as of December 30, 2016 (the “Existing RSA”), pursuant to which Originator sells and assigns to Buyer, and Buyer purchases from Originator, all of Originator’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables, together with the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto.

Originator and Buyer desire to amend and restate the Existing RSA, effective as of February 27, 2017 (the “Amendment Date”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

Originator and Buyer intend the transactions contemplated hereby to be true sales of the Receivables from Originator to Buyer, providing Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and Originator and Buyer do not intend these transactions to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from Buyer to Originator.

Buyer from time to time sells undivided interests in the Receivables and in the associated Related Security and Collections pursuant to that certain Third Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 27, 2017 (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Purchase Agreement”), among Buyer, Originator, as Servicer, the Companies from time to time party thereto, the Financial Institutions from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or any successor agent appointed pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as agent for such Companies and such Financial Institutions (in such capacity, the “Agent”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Existing RSA is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth herein:

ARTICLE I

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASE

1.1 Purchase of Receivables.

(a) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and ratifies the prior sales and purchases under the Existing RSA of the Receivables, Related Security relating thereto and Collections thereof existing on June 27, 2001 (the “Initial Cutoff Date”) and thereafter arising from time to time through the Amendment Date, and agrees that the parties’ continuing rights and obligations with respect to such Receivables shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Originator does hereby sell, assign, transfer, set-over and otherwise convey to Buyer, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided herein), and Buyer does hereby purchase from Originator, in each case to the extent not previously sold, assigned, transferred, set-over and otherwise conveyed under the Existing RSA, all of Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing on the Business Day immediately preceding the Amendment Date (the “Amendment Cutoff Date”) and all Receivables thereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, together, in each case, with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof. In accordance with the preceding sentence, on the Amendment Date, Buyer shall acquire all of Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing on the Amendment Cutoff Date and thereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof, in each case, to the extent not previously acquired under the Existing RSA. Buyer shall be obligated to pay the Purchase Price for the Receivables purchased hereunder in accordance with Section 1.2. In connection with consummation of the Purchase Price for any Receivables purchased hereunder, Buyer may request that Originator deliver, and Originator shall deliver, such approvals, opinions, information, reports or documents as Buyer may reasonably request.

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale, which sale is absolute and irrevocable and provides Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables. Except for the Purchase Price Credits owed pursuant to Section 1.3, the sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to Originator; provided, however, that (i) Originator shall be liable to Buyer (and its assigns) for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by Originator pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which Originator is a party, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by Buyer or any assignee thereof of any obligation of Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or other Related Security or any other obligations of Originator. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of such Receivables rather than loans secured thereby, Originator agrees that it has, and in accordance with Section 4.1(e)(ii), will continue to, identify in its general ledger a legend, reasonably acceptable to Buyer and to the Agent (as Buyer’s assignee), that Buyer has purchased such Receivables as provided in this Agreement and to note in its financial statements that its Receivables have been sold to Buyer. Upon the request of Buyer or the Agent (as Buyer’s assignee), Originator will authorize and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and execute and file such other instruments, documents or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and

maintain the perfection of Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, or as Buyer or the Agent (as Buyer’s assignee) may reasonably request.

1.2 Payment for the Purchase.

(a) The parties acknowledge that the Purchase Price for the sale and purchase of Receivables, Related Security and Collections in existence on the Initial Cutoff Date was paid in full by Buyer to Originator in the following manner:

(i) by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds made available to Buyer in connection with its subsequent sale of an interest in such Receivables to the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement, subject to offset by amounts owed by Originator to Buyer on account of the issuance of equity in the manner contemplated in the Subscription Agreement and having a total value of not less than the Required Capital Amount, and

(ii) the balance, by delivery of the proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from Originator to Buyer (a “Subordinated Loan”).

The parties acknowledge that the Purchase Price for all Receivables, Related Security and Collections existing prior to the Amendment Cutoff Date and sold and purchased under the Existing RSA has been paid in full by Buyer to Originator.

The Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the Amendment Cutoff Date shall be due and owing in full by Buyer to Originator or its designee on the date each such Receivable came into existence (except that Buyer may, with respect to any such Purchase Price, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts owed by Originator to Buyer hereunder and which have become due but remain unpaid) and shall be paid to Originator in the manner provided in the following paragraphs (b), (c) and (d).

(b) With respect to any Receivables coming into existence after the Amendment Cutoff Date, on each Settlement Date, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price therefor in accordance with Section 1.2(d) and in the following manner:

first, by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds available to Buyer from its subsequent sale of an interest in the Receivables to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement or other cash on hand;

second, by delivery of the proceeds of a Subordinated Loan, provided that the amount of any such Subordinated Loan shall not exceed the least of (i) the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price, (ii) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount and (iii) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering the Net Value less than the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Loans (including the Subordinated Loan proposed to be made on such date); and

third, unless Originator has declared the Termination Date to have occurred pursuant to Section 5.2, by accepting a contribution to its capital pursuant to the Subscription Agreement in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price.

Subject to the limitations set forth in clause second above, Originator irrevocably agrees to advance each Subordinated Loan requested by Buyer on or prior to the Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which Buyer is not required under the Purchase Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Purchasers.

Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to endorse on the schedule attached to the Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of Buyer thereunder.

(c) From and after the Termination Date, Originator shall not be obligated to (but may, at its option): (i) sell Receivables to Buyer, or (ii) contribute Receivables to Buyer’s capital pursuant to clause third of Section 1.2(b) unless Originator reasonably determines that the Purchase Price therefor will be satisfied with funds available to Buyer from sales of interests in the Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Collections, proceeds of Subordinated Loans, other cash on hand or otherwise.

(d) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the Amendment Cutoff Date shall be due and payable in full by Buyer to Originator on the date such Receivable came into existence, settlement of the Purchase Price between Buyer and Originator shall be effected on a monthly basis on Settlement Dates with respect to all Receivables coming into existence during the same Calculation Period and based on the information contained in the Monthly Report delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement for the Calculation Period then most recently ended. Although settlement shall be effected on Settlement Dates, increases or decreases in the amount owing under the Subordinated Note made pursuant to Section 1.2(b) and any contribution of capital by Originator to Buyer made pursuant to Section 1.2(b) shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the last Business Day of the Calculation Period to which such settlement relates.

1.3 Purchase Price Credit Adjustments. If on any day:

(a) the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable is:

(i) reduced as a result of any defective or rejected or returned goods or services, any discount or any adjustment or otherwise by Originator (other than cash Collections on account of the Receivables),

(ii) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction), or

(b) any of the representations and warranties set forth in Article II are not true when made or deemed made with respect to any Receivable,

then, in such event, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable (calculated before giving effect to the applicable reduction or cancellation). If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Purchase Price payable by Buyer on any day, then Originator shall pay to Buyer the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash immediately, provided that if the Termination Date has not occurred, Originator shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under the Subordinated Note.

1.4 Payments and Computations, Etc. All amounts to be paid or deposited by Buyer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account of Originator designated from time to time by Originator or as otherwise directed by Originator. In the event that any payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any Person fails to pay any amount hereunder when due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid in full; provided, however, that such Default Fee shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

1.5 Transfer of Records.

(a) In connection with the Purchase of Receivables hereunder, Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to Buyer all of Originator’s right and title to and interest in the Records relating to all Receivables sold hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the Purchase. In connection with such transfer, Originator hereby grants to each of Buyer, the Agent and the Servicer an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by Originator to account for the Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by Originator or is owned by others and used by Originator under license agreements with respect thereto, provided that should the consent of any licensor of such software be required for the grant of the license described herein, to be effective, Originator hereby agrees that upon the request of Buyer (or Buyer’s assignee), Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

(b) Originator (i) shall take such action requested by Buyer and/or the Agent (as Buyer’s assignee), from time to time hereafter, that may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that Buyer and its assigns under the Purchase Agreement have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records relating to the Receivables purchased from Originator hereunder, and (ii) shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that Buyer, the Agent and the Servicer each has an

enforceable right (whether by license or sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used to account for the Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

1.6 Characterization. If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.1(b), any sale or contribution by Originator to Buyer of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable (any of the foregoing being a “Recharacterization”), then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties’ intention that the sale of Receivables hereunder shall constitute a true sale thereof, Originator hereby grants to Buyer a duly perfected security interest in all of Originator’s right title and interest in, to and under all Receivables now existing and hereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, all Collections and Related Security with respect thereto, each Lock-Box and Collection Account, all other rights and payments relating to the Receivables and all proceeds of the foregoing to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the Purchase Price of the Receivables together with all other obligations of Originator hereunder, which security interest shall be prior to all other Adverse Claims thereto. Buyer and its assigns shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. In the case of any Recharacterization, each of the Originator and the Buyer represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of Collections by the Originator to the Buyer hereunder will have been (i) in payment of a debt incurred by the Originator in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Originator and the Buyer and (ii) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Originator and the Buyer.

ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

2.1 Representations and Warranties of Originator. Originator hereby represents and warrants to Buyer on the Amendment Date, on the date of the Purchase and on each date that any Receivable comes into existence that:

(a) Corporate Existence and Power.

(b) Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery. The execution and delivery by Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and, Originator’s use of the proceeds of the Purchase made hereunder, are within its corporate powers and authority, and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its

part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Originator is a party has been duly executed and delivered by Originator.

(c) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws or any shareholder agreements, voting trusts, and similar arrangements applicable to any of its authorized shares, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on assets of Originator or its Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder); and no transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(d) Governmental Authorization. Other than the filing of the financing statements required hereunder, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by Originator of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(e) Actions, Suits. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to the best of Originator’s knowledge, threatened, against or affecting Originator, or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other body, except for actions, suits or proceedings (i) that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that have been publicly disclosed in any periodic report or other filing made by Originator pursuant to, and in full conformity with the requirements of, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition to the foregoing, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to the best of Originator’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Receivables, the Related Security or any Transaction Document, in or before any court, arbitration or other body. Originator is not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body.

(f) Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Originator is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of Originator enforceable against Originator in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(g) Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore furnished by Originator or any of its Affiliates to Buyer (or its assigns) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by Originator or any of its Affiliates to Buyer (or its assigns) will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.

(h) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any Purchase Price payment hereunder will be used by Originator (i) for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, any law, rule or regulation applicable to Originator or (ii) to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(i) Good Title. Immediately prior to the Purchase hereunder and upon the creation of each Receivable coming into existence after the Initial Cut-Off Date, Originator (i) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Receivables and (ii) is the legal and beneficial owner of the Related Security with respect thereto or possesses a valid and perfected security interest therein, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Originator’s ownership interest in each Receivable, its Collections and the Related Security.

(j) Perfection. This Agreement, together with the filing of the financing statements contemplated hereby, is effective to transfer to Buyer (and Buyer shall acquire from Originator) (i) legal and equitable title to, with the right to sell and encumber each Receivable existing and hereafter arising, together with the Collections with respect thereto, and (ii) all of Originator’s right, title and interest in the Related Security associated with each Receivable, in each case, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transactions Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables, the Related Security and the Collections.

(k) Jurisdiction of Organization and Locations of Records. The jurisdiction of organization of Originator and the offices where it keeps all of its Records are located at the address(es) listed on Exhibit II or such other locations of which Buyer has been notified in accordance with Section 4.2(a) in jurisdictions where all action required by Section 4.2(a) and/or Section 7.3(a) has been taken and completed. Originator’s organizational number assigned to it by its jurisdiction of organization and Originator’s Federal Employer Identification Number are correctly set forth on Exhibit II. Originator has not changed its corporate structure or jurisdiction of organization except in accordance with Section 4.2(a). Originator is a New York corporation and is a “registered organization” (within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC in effect in the State of New York).

(l) Collections. The conditions and requirements set forth in Section 4.1(j) have at all times been satisfied and duly performed. The names and addresses of all Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the Collection Accounts of Originator at each Collection Bank and the post office box number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Exhibit III. Originator has not granted any Person, other than Buyer (and its assigns) dominion and control or “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) of any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or the right to take dominion and control or “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) of any such Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event.

Originator has taken all steps necessary to ensure that the Agent has “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) over all of its Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes.

(m) Material Adverse Effect. Since July 2, 2016, no event has occurred that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Names. In the past five (5) years, Originator has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than as listed on Exhibit II.

(o) Ownership of Buyer. Originator owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Buyer, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such capital stock is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Buyer.

(p) Not an Investment Company. Originator is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.

(q) Compliance with Law. Originator has complied in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Originator has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and has not made any change to the Credit and Collection Policy, except any such material change which has been made in accordance with Section 4.2(c) and as to which Buyer (or its assigns) has been notified in accordance with Section 4.1(a)(vii).

(s) Payments to Originator. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Buyer hereunder, the Purchase Price received by Originator constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by Originator of any Receivable hereunder is or may be voidable under any section of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included at any time in the Net Receivables Balance as an Eligible Receivable was, on the later to occur of the date of the Purchase and the date it came into existence, an Eligible Receivable on such date.

(v) Accounting. The manner in which Originator accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement does not jeopardize the characterization of the transactions contemplated herein as being true sales of the Receivables by the Originator to the Buyer.

ARTICLE III
CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE

3.1 Conditions Precedent to Purchase. The effectiveness of the amendment and restatement of this Agreement is subject to the conditions precedent that all of the conditions to the concurrent amendment and restatement of the Purchase Agreement (as set forth therein) shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof.

3.2 Conditions Precedent to Subsequent Payments. Buyer’s obligation to pay for Receivables coming into existence after the Amendment Cutoff Date shall be subject to the further conditions precedent that (a) the Facility Termination Date shall not have occurred; (b) Buyer (or its assigns) shall have received such other approvals, opinions or documents as it may reasonably request and (c) on the date such Receivable came into existence, the following statements shall be true (and acceptance of any payment for such Receivable shall be deemed a representation and warranty by Originator that such statements are then true):

(i) the representations and warranties set forth in Article II are true and correct on and as of the date such Receivable came into existence as though made on and as of such date; and

(ii) no event has occurred and is continuing that will constitute a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event.

Notwithstanding the foregoing conditions precedent, upon payment of the Purchase Price for any Receivable (whether by payment of cash, through an increase in the amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Note, by offset of amounts owed to Buyer and/or by offset of capital contributions), title to such Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto shall vest in Buyer, whether or not the conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligation to pay for such Receivable were in fact satisfied. The failure of Originator to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions precedent, however, shall give rise to a right of Buyer to rescind the related purchase and direct Originator to pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Purchase Price payment that shall have been made with respect to any Receivables related thereto.

ARTICLE IV
COVENANTS

4.1 Affirmative Covenants of Originator. Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, Originator hereby covenants as set forth below:

(i) Annual Reporting. Within 120 days after the close of each of its respective fiscal years, audited, unqualified consolidated financial statements (which shall include balance sheets, statements of income and retained earnings and a statement of cash flows) for Originator and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal year certified in a manner acceptable to Buyer (or its assigns) by independent public accountants of recognized national standing.

(ii) Quarterly Reporting. Within sixty (60) days after the close of the first three (3) quarterly periods of each of its respective fiscal years, consolidated balance sheets of Originator and its Subsidiaries as at the close of each such period and statements of income and retained earnings and a statement of cash flows for Originator and its Subsidiaries for the period from the beginning of such fiscal year to the end of such quarter, all certified, subject to year-end audit adjustments, as to fairness of presentation, GAAP, and consistency, by its chief financial officer, chief accounting officer or treasurer.

(iii) Compliance Certificate. Together with the financial statements required hereunder, a compliance certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit IV signed by Originator’s Authorized Officer and dated the date of such annual financial statement or such quarterly financial statement, as the case may be.

(iv) Shareholders Statements and Reports. Promptly upon the furnishing thereof to the shareholders of Originator, copies of all financial statements, reports and proxy statements so furnished.

(v) S.E.C. Filings. Promptly upon the filing thereof, copies of all registration statements and annual, quarterly, monthly or other regular reports which Originator or any of its Subsidiaries files with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(vi) Copies of Notices. Promptly upon its receipt of any notice, request for consent, financial statements, certification, report or other communication under or in connection with any Transaction Document from any Person other than Buyer or the Agent, copies of the same.

(vii) Change in Credit and Collection Policy. At least thirty (30) days prior to the effectiveness of any material change in or material amendment to the Credit and Collection Policy, a copy of the Credit and Collection Policy then in effect and a notice (A) indicating such change or amendment, and (B) if such proposed change or amendment would be reasonably likely to adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the

credit quality of any newly created Receivables, requesting Buyer’s consent thereto.

(e) Keeping and Marking of Records and Books.

(i) Originator will maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing Receivables in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit the immediate identification of each new Receivable and all Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable). Originator will give Buyer (or its assigns) notice of any material change in the administrative and operating procedures referred to in the previous sentence.

(h) Purchasers’ Reliance. Originator acknowledges that the Agent and the Purchasers are entering into the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in reliance upon Buyer’s identity as a legal entity that is separate from Originator and any Affiliates thereof. Therefore, from and after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement, Originator will take all reasonable steps including, without limitation, all steps that Buyer, or any assignee of Buyer, may from time to time reasonably request to maintain Buyer’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest to third parties that Buyer is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of Originator and any Affiliates thereof and not a division of Originator or any such Affiliate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, Originator (i) will not hold itself out to third parties as liable for the debts of Buyer nor purport to own the Receivables and other assets acquired by Buyer, (ii) will take all other actions necessary on its part to ensure that Buyer is at all times in compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 7.1(i) of the Purchase Agreement and (iii) will cause all tax liabilities arising in connection with the transactions contemplated herein or otherwise to be allocated between Originator and Buyer on an arm’s-length basis and in a manner consistent with the procedures set forth in U.S. Treasury Regulations §§ 1.1502-33(d) and 1.1552-1.

(i) Collections. Originator will cause (1) all proceeds from all Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a Collection Account and (2) each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect. In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to Originator or any Affiliate of Originator, Originator will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof and, at all times prior to such remittance, Originator will itself hold such payments in trust for the exclusive benefit of Buyer and its assigns. Originator will transfer exclusive ownership, dominion and control of each Lock-Box and Collection Account to Buyer and, will not grant the right to take dominion and control or

establish “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to Buyer (or its assigns) as contemplated by this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement. With respect to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, Originator shall take all steps necessary to ensure that the Agent has “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) over such Lock-Box or Collection Account.

(j) Taxes. Originator will file all tax returns and reports required by law to be filed by it and promptly pay all taxes and governmental charges at any time owing. Originator will pay when due any taxes payable in connection with the Receivables, exclusive of taxes on or measured by income or gross receipts of Buyer and its assigns.

(k) Insurance. Originator will maintain in effect, or cause to be maintained in effect, at Originator’s own expense, such casualty and liability insurance as Originator deems appropriate in its good faith business judgment. Buyer and the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, shall be named as additional insureds with respect to all such liability insurance maintained by Originator. Originator will pay or cause to be paid, the premiums therefor and deliver to Buyer and the Agent evidence satisfactory to Buyer and the Agent of such insurance coverage. Copies of each policy shall be furnished to Buyer, the Agent and any Purchaser in certificated form upon Buyer’s, the Agent’s or such Purchaser’s request.

(l) Segregation of Other Servicer Collected Funds. Originator shall, within six (6) days of the date any Other Servicer Collected Funds are deposited, credited or funded to any Collection Account, (i) specifically identify all such Other Servicer Collected Funds and (ii) cause all Other Servicer Collected Funds to be transferred from the applicable Collection Account.

(m) Elimination of Other Servicer Collected Funds. Subject to Section 4.1(l), Originator shall use all reasonable efforts to prevent all Other Servicer Collected Funds from being deposited, credited or otherwise funded to, any and all Collection Accounts.

4.2 Negative Covenants of Originator. Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, Originator hereby covenants that:

(a) Name Change, Jurisdiction of Organization, Corporate Structure, Offices and Records. Originator will not change its name, identity, jurisdiction of organization or corporate structure (within the meaning of Sections 9-503 and/or 9-507 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) or relocate any office where Records are kept unless it shall have: (i) given Buyer (or its assigns) at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii) delivered to Buyer (or its assigns) all financing statements, instruments and other documents requested by Buyer (or its assigns) in connection with such change or relocation.

(b) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Except as may be required by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b) of the Purchase Agreement, Originator will not add or terminate any bank as a Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, unless Buyer

and the Agent shall have received, at least ten (10) days before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Bank or a Collection Account or Lock-Box, an executed Collection Account Agreement with respect to the new Collection Account or Lock-Box; provided, however, that Originator may make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to another existing Collection Account.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Originator will not make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy that could adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables. Except as otherwise permitted in its capacity as Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement, Originator will not extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any Contract related thereto other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

(d) Sales, Liens. Originator will not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon (including, without limitation, the filing of any financing statement) or with respect to, any Receivable, Related Security or Collections, or upon or with respect to any Contract under which any Receivable arises, or any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in each case, the creation of the interests therein in favor of Buyer (or its assigns) provided for herein), and Originator (or its assigns) will defend the right, title and interest of Buyer, or its assigns, in, to and under any of the foregoing property, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Originator. Originator shall not create or suffer to exist any mortgage, pledge, security interest, encumbrance, lien, charge or other similar arrangement on any of its inventory, the financing or lease of which gives rise to any Receivable, other than a Permitted Adverse Claim.

(e) Accounting for Purchase. Originator will not, and will not permit any Affiliate to, account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise) the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than the sale of the Receivables and the Related Security by Originator to Buyer or in any other respect account for or treat the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than as a sale of the Receivables and the Related Security by Originator to Buyer except to the extent that such transactions are not recognized on account of consolidated financial reporting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

(vi) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of any Purchase Price Payment, the ownership of the Receivables or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS

7.1 Waivers and Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of Buyer (or its assigns) in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.

7.3 Protection of Ownership Interests of Buyer.

(a) Originator agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Buyer (or its assigns) may request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of Buyer hereunder and the Purchaser Interests, or to enable Buyer (or its assigns) to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Originator will, upon the request of Buyer (or its assigns), file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and execute and file such other instruments and documents, that may be necessary or desirable, or that Buyer (or its assigns) may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or evidence the interest of Buyer hereunder and the Purchaser Interests. At any time, Buyer (or its assigns) may, at Originator’s sole cost and expense, direct Originator to notify the Obligors of Receivables of the ownership interests of Buyer under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to Buyer or its designee.

Originator irrevocably authorizes Buyer (and its assigns) at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of Buyer (or its assigns), and appoints Buyer (and its assigns) as its attorney(ies)-in-fact, to act on behalf of Originator (i) to authorize on behalf of Originator as debtor and to file financing or continuation statements (and amendments thereto and assignments thereof) necessary or desirable in Buyer’s (or its assigns’) sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of Buyer in the Receivables, Related Security, Collections and all other property sold to Buyer hereunder or under the Existing RSA, other than any of the foregoing which have previously been released by the Buyer and its assigns (the collateral in which Buyer continues to maintain an interest, the “Sold Property”) and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables as a financing statement in such offices as Buyer (or its assigns) in their sole discretion deem necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of Buyer’s interests in the Sold Property. Such financing statements may describe the Sold Property in the same

manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such Sold Property (which may describe the collateral as set forth in Exhibit VI) as Buyer (or its assigns) may determine, in its sole discretion, is reasonably necessary or advisable to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Sold Property granted to Buyer in connection herewith. The authorization by Originator set forth above is intended to meet all requirements for authorization by a debtor under Article 9 of any applicable enactment of the UCC, including, without limitation, Section 9-509 thereof. The foregoing appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

7.4 Confidentiality.

(a) Originator and Buyer each hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any Company or any Funding Source that is a special purpose bankruptcy remote entity, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Company or any such entity any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

(b) Originator covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding obligations of Buyer under the Purchase Agreement, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Buyer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.
