Wind Down Purchase Terms and Conditions
As of the date hereof, a Purchase Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred,
notwithstanding that no Termination Event has occurred, and the Selling Period shall without
further action be deemed irrevocably terminated; provided that the Company and Haverhill agree that
certain limited purchases of certain Receivables will be permitted until December 31, 2010
(“Wind Down Purchases”) as set forth below:
1. Wind Down Purchases. The Company will purchase from Haverhill each Receivable that
satisfies all of the Eligibility Criteria on or before 5 p.m. E.T. on November 15, 2010,
including, for the avoidance of doubt, the requirement to obtain completed documentation as
referenced in (xi)-(xiv) of Schedule VI to the Purchase Agreement (which documentation shall
have been submitted to the Company on or before 5 p.m. E.T. on November 15, 2010); provided
that Haverhill must deliver to the Company on or before 4 p.m. E.T. on December 28, 2010
with respect to each such Receivable (i) a Purchase Notice delivered in accordance with the
Purchase Agreement and (ii) a fully completed Settlement Package for such Receivable along
with any other information requested under Section 2.01 of the Purchase Agreement.
2. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or
elsewhere, (a) the Company is not obligated to purchase any Receivables from Haverhill at
any time after 4 p.m. E.T. on December 31, 2010 or at any time on any date thereafter, and
(b) except as modified above, the Wind Down Purchases will be subject to
Page 1 of 5
the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement and all other relevant Transaction
Documents.
3. Haverhill shall have no other obligations or duties in relation to the Company that
are inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be entitled to receive any Termination
Fee under the Purchase Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, (a) both the Company and Haverhill acknowledges and agrees that
Haverhill, the Company, and any other Purchaser, if applicable, will remain subject to and
bound by the provisions of Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement following the Purchase
Termination Date, and (b) the Company, and any other Purchaser, if applicable, will remain
subject to and bound by the provisions of Section 2.06 of the Purchase Agreement for three
(3) years following the Purchase Termination Date.
4. Section 5.01(e) of the Purchase Agreement shall be amended and restated as follows:
Inspection of Books and Records. The Purchaser and its designees (and
designated representatives thereof) and independent accountants appointed by, or
other agents of, any of the foregoing, upon reasonable prior written notice to the
Seller, shall have the right no more often than two (2) times each calendar year,
to visit the Seller’s office(s) and other place(s) of business and (i) discuss the
affairs, finances and accounts of the Seller with, and to be advised as to the same
by, its officers, and (ii) examine the books of account and records of the Seller,
and to make or be provided with copies and extracts therefrom (clauses (i)
and (ii) together, an “Inspection”), all at such reasonable times
and intervals and to such reasonable extent during regular business hours as the
Purchaser and its designees (and designated representatives thereof) and
independent accountants appointed by, or other agents of, any of the foregoing, as
applicable, may desire; provided however, that it is agreed and
acknowledged by the parties hereto that if the Seller, the Originator or the
Servicer are physically located in more than one geographic location and that in
connection with any such Inspection it is necessary to visit more than one of these
locations, then for the purposes of determining how many times in a particular
calendar year the Seller, the Originator and the Servicer are obligated to
facilitate or participate in an Inspection hereunder or pursuant to Section
4.9 of the Servicing Agreement or Section 5.02(e) of the Receivables
Sale Agreement, visits to separate offices shall be considered to be part of the
same Inspection and shall not each count as a separate Inspection. For the
avoidance of doubt, for so long as the Originator and the Servicer are the same
entity and the Seller is a wholly-owned subsidiary of such entity and the
Originator, the Servicer and the Seller each have a principal place of business at
the same location, (x) each Inspection conducted pursuant to this Section
5.01(e) shall also constitute an Inspection pursuant to Section 4.9 of
the Servicing Agreement and Section 5.02(e) of the Receivables Sale
Agreement and (y) each Inspection conducted pursuant to Section 4.9 of the
Page 2 of 5
Servicing Agreement and Section 5.02(e) of the Receivables Sale Agreement
shall also constitute an Inspection pursuant to this Section 5.01(e).
5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Purchase Agreement, the following
provisions in the Purchase Agreement will no longer be effective as of January 1, 2011:
(a) Section 2.05;
(b) 5.01(j);
(c) 5.01(p);
(d) 5.01(q);
(e) 5.01(t), provided that, if not publicly available, financial statements of Imperial
Holdings, Inc. shall be provided promptly upon request of the Company;
(f) 5.01(w);
(g) Section 9.01; and
(h) Section 9.03.
