This RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of August 7, 2008, among TRIUMPH RECEIVABLES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as seller (the “Seller”), TRIUMPH GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Triumph”), as initial servicer (in such capacity, together with its successors and permitted assigns in such capacity, the “Servicer”), THE VARIOUS PURCHASERS AND PURCHASER AGENTS FROM TIME TO TIME PARTY HERETO, PNC CAPITAL MARKETS LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company, as Structuring Agent, and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Administrator for each Purchaser Group (in such capacity, the “Administrator”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS. Certain terms that are capitalized and used throughout this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I. References in the Exhibits hereto to the “Agreement” refer to this Agreement, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

The Seller desires to sell, transfer and assign an undivided variable percentage interest in a pool of receivables, and the Purchasers desire to acquire such undivided variable percentage interest, as such percentage interest shall be adjusted from time to time based upon, in part, reinvestment payments that are made by such Purchasers.

In consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASES

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Seller may, from time to time before the Facility Termination Date, ratably (based on the aggregate Commitments of the Related Committed Purchasers in their respective Purchaser Groups) request that the Conduit Purchasers, or, only if a Conduit Purchaser denies such request or is unable to fund, ratably request that the Related Committed Purchasers, 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 earlier of the Facility Termination Date and the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to such Purchase Group. 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 undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller before the Facility Termination Date or, if earlier, the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to such Related Committed Purchaser, based on the applicable Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of each purchase requested pursuant to Section 1.2(a) (each a “Purchase”) (and, in the case of each Related Committed Purchaser, its Commitment Percentage of its Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of such Purchase); provided, however, that under no circumstances shall any Purchaser make any Purchase or reinvestment hereunder if, after giving effect to such Purchase or reinvestment (i)

-1-

such Purchaser’s aggregate Capital would exceed its Commitment, (ii) the Aggregate Capital would (after giving effect to all Purchases and reinvestments on such date) exceed the Purchase Limit or (iii) the Purchased Interest would exceed 100%.

(b) The Seller may, upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, reduce the unused portion of the Purchase Limit in whole or in part (but not below the amount which would cause the Group Capital of any Purchaser Group to exceed its Group Commitment (after giving effect to such reduction)); provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and unless terminated in whole, the Purchase Limit shall, on and after August 29, 2008, in no event be reduced below $75,000,000 (it being understood that the Purchased Interest shall not exceed 100%). Such reduction shall, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Seller, the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent be applied ratably to reduce the Group Commitment of each Purchaser Group.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Seventh Amendment Effective Date, the Purchaser Group that includes PNC, as a Purchaser Agent and as a Purchaser, shall not include a Conduit Purchaser, and each request by the Seller for ratable Purchases by the Conduit Purchasers pursuant to Section 1.1(a) shall be deemed to be a request that the Related Committed Purchasers in PNC’s Purchaser Group make their ratable share of such Purchases.

Section 1.2 Making Purchases. (I) Each Purchase (but not reinvestment) 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 (which notice must be received by the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent before 2:00 p.m., New York City time) at least two Business Days before the requested Purchase Date, which notice shall specify: (A) the amount requested to be paid to the Seller (such amount, which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or such lesser amount as agreed to by the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents) and shall be in integral multiples of $100,000, in each case with respect to each Purchaser Group, (B) the date of such 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.

(a) On the date of each Purchase (but not reinvestment) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder, each applicable Purchaser shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Exhibit II, make available to the Seller in same day funds, at PNC Bank, National Association, account number 1019825269 (or such other account as may be so designated in writing by the Seller to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent) an amount equal to the portion of Capital relating to the undivided percentage ownership interest then being funded by such Purchaser.

(b) Effective on the date of each 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, according to each such Purchaser’s Capital) an undivided percentage ownership interest in: (i) each Pool Receivable then existing, (ii) all Related Security

-2-

with respect to such Pool Receivables, and (iii) all Collections with respect to, and other proceeds of, such Pool Receivables and Related Security.

(c) 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) 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 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 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.

(d) The Seller may, with the written consent of the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, add additional Persons as Purchasers (either to an existing Purchaser Group or by creating new Purchaser Groups) or cause an existing Purchaser to increase its Commitment in connection with a corresponding increase in the Purchase Limit; provided, however, that the Commitment of any Purchaser may only be increased with the prior written consent of such Purchaser. Each new Purchaser (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 Purchaser or Purchasers, be executed by each Person in such new Purchaser’s Purchaser Group).

(e) Each Related Committed Purchaser’s obligation hereunder shall be several, such that the failure of any Related Committed Purchaser to make a payment in connection with any Purchase hereunder shall not relieve any other Related Committed Purchaser of its obligation hereunder to make payment for any Purchase. Further, in the event any Related Committed Purchaser fails to satisfy its obligation to make a Purchase as required hereunder, upon receipt of notice of such failure from the Seller or the Administrator (or any relevant Purchaser Agent), subject to the limitations set forth herein, the non-defaulting Related Committed Purchasers in such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group shall purchase the defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of the related Purchase pro rata in proportion to their relative Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to the Commitment Percentage of the defaulting Related Committed Purchaser; it being understood that a defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of any Purchase shall be first put to the Related Committed Purchasers in such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group and thereafter if

-3-

there are no other Related Committed Purchasers in such Purchaser Group or if such other Related Committed Purchasers are also defaulting Related Committed Purchasers, then such defaulting Related Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of such Purchase shall be put to each other Purchaser Group ratably and applied in accordance with this paragraph (f)). Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph (f) to the contrary, no Related Committed Purchaser shall be required to make a Purchase pursuant to this paragraph for an amount which would cause the aggregate Capital of such Related Committed Purchaser (after giving effect to such Purchase) to exceed its Commitment.

Section 1.3 Purchased Interest Computation. The Purchased Interest shall be initially computed on the Closing 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 be deemed to be 100%. The Purchased Interest shall become zero when the Aggregate Capital thereof and Aggregate Discount thereon shall have been paid in full, all the amounts owed by the Seller and the Servicer hereunder to each Purchaser, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person that are then due and payable are paid in full, and the Servicer shall have received the accrued Servicing Fee thereon.

Section 1.4 Settlement Procedures.

(a) The collection of the Pool Receivables shall be administered by the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement and applicable regulatory law. 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 the aggregate Purchasers’ Share of the Servicing Fee accrued through such day and not previously set aside,

(ii) subject to Section 1.4(f), if such day is not a Termination Day, remit to the Seller, ratably, on behalf of each Purchaser Group, the remainder of such Collections. 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

-4-

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 Conduit 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 Conduit Purchaser to be reinvested pursuant to this clause (ii), and (y) in the case of any Purchaser with respect to which the Purchaser Termination Date has occurred (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 the occurrence of the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to any Purchaser), 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 the Collections (or in the case of a Declining Conduit Purchaser or an Exiting Purchaser an amount equal to such Declining Conduit Purchaser’s or Exiting Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections based on its Capital; provided, that solely for the purpose of determining such Declining Conduit Purchaser’s or Exiting Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections, such Declining Conduit Purchaser’s or Exiting Purchaser’s Capital shall be deemed to remain constant from the date of the provision of a Declining Notice or the occurrence of the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to such Purchaser, as the case may be, until the date such Declining Conduit Purchaser’s or Exiting 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 Termination Day (or any day following the provision of a Declining Notice or the occurrence of the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to any Purchaser) and, thereafter, the conditions set forth in Section 2 of Exhibit II or giving rise to the related Facility Termination Date are satisfied or cured or waived by the Majority Purchaser Agents (or in the case of a Declining Notice or the occurrence of the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to any Purchaser, such Declining Notice or occurrence of the Purchaser Termination Date with respect to such Purchaser, as the case may be, has been revoked by the related Declining Conduit Purchaser or waived by the related Exiting Purchaser, as the case may be, 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 Aggregate Capital (or the Capital of the Declining Conduit Purchaser or Exiting Purchaser, as the case may be) and ratably in accordance with each Purchaser’s Capital, be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) on the day of such subsequent satisfaction, cure or

-5-

waiver of conditions or revocation of Declining Notice or waiver of such Purchaser Termination Date, as the case may be, and

(iv) release to the Seller (subject to Section 1.4(f)) for its own account any Collections in excess, if any, of: (x) amounts required to be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) or the proviso to clause (iii) plus (y) the amounts that are required to be set aside pursuant to clause (i), the proviso to clause (ii) and clause (iii) plus (z) the Seller’s Share of the Servicing Fee accrued and unpaid through such day and all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Servicer for servicing, collecting and administering the Pool Receivables.

(c) The Servicer shall, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 1.4(d), below, deposit into each applicable Purchaser Agent’s account (or such other account designated by such applicable Purchaser or its Purchaser Agent), on each Settlement Date in the case of Collections held for each Purchaser with respect to such Purchaser’s Portion(s) of Capital pursuant to clause (b)(i) or paragraph (f), plus the amount of Collections then held for the related Purchasers pursuant to clauses (b)(ii) and (iii) of this Section 1.4; provided, that if Triumph or an Affiliate thereof is the Servicer, such day is not a Termination Day and the Administrator has not notified Triumph (or such Affiliate) that such right is revoked, Triumph (or such Affiliate) may retain the portion of the Collections set aside pursuant to clause (b)(i) that represents the aggregate Purchasers’ Share of the Servicing Fee.

(d) The Servicer shall distribute the amounts described (and at the times set forth) in Section 1.4(c), as follows:

(i) if such distribution occurs on a day that is not a Termination Day, first to each Purchaser Agent ratably according to the Discount accrued during the Yield Period ending on the Settlement Date on which such Discount is distributed (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of all accrued and unpaid Discount and Fees (other than Servicing Fees) with respect to each Portion of Capital maintained by such Purchasers; it being understood that each Purchaser Agent shall distribute such amounts to the Purchasers within its Purchaser Group ratably according to Discount, and second, if the Servicer has set aside amounts in respect of the Purchasers’ Share of the Servicing Fee pursuant to clause (b)(i) and has not retained such amounts pursuant to paragraph (c), to the Servicer’s own account (payable in arrears on each Settlement Date) in payment in full of the aggregate of the Purchasers’ Share of accrued Servicing Fees so set aside, and

(ii) if such distribution occurs on a Termination Day, first if Triumph or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, to the Servicer’s own account in payment in full of the Purchasers’ Share of all accrued Servicing Fees, second to each Purchaser Agent ratably (based on the aggregate accrued and unpaid Discount and Fees (other than Servicing Fees) payable to all Purchasers at such time) (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of all accrued Discount with respect to each Portion of Capital funded or maintained by the Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group, third to each Purchaser Agent ratably according to the

-6-

aggregate of the Capital of each Purchaser in each such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of each Purchaser’s Capital (or, if such day is not a Termination Day, the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%); it being understood that each Purchaser Agent shall distribute the amounts described in the first and second clauses of this Section 1.4(d)(ii) to the Purchasers within its Purchaser Group ratably according to Discount and Capital, respectively, fourth, if the Aggregate Capital and accrued Aggregate Discount with respect to each Portion of Capital for all Purchaser Groups have been reduced to zero, and the Purchasers’ Share of all accrued Servicing Fees payable to the Servicer (if other than Triumph or an Affiliate thereof) have been paid in full, to each Purchaser Group ratably, based on the amounts then due and payable to each (for the benefit of the Purchasers within such Purchaser Group), the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person in payment in full of any other amounts then due and payable thereto by the Seller or Servicer hereunder and, fifth, to the Servicer’s own account (if the Servicer is Triumph or an Affiliate thereof) in payment in full of the aggregate of the Purchasers’ Share of all accrued Servicing Fees.

After the Aggregate Capital, Aggregate Discount, fees payable pursuant to each Purchaser Group Fee Letter and Servicing Fees with respect to the Purchased Interest, and any other amounts payable by the Seller and the Servicer to each Purchaser Group, the Administrator, the Structuring Agent or any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person hereunder, have been paid in full, all additional Collections with respect to the Purchased Interest shall be paid to the Seller for its own account.

(e) For the purposes of this Section 1.4:

(i) if on any day the Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, discount or other adjustment made by the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, or the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer, or any setoff or dispute between the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, or the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer and an Obligor, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment and shall immediately pay any and all such amounts in respect thereof to a Lock-Box Account for the benefit of the Purchasers and their assigns and for application pursuant to this Section 1.4;

(ii) if on any day any of the representations or warranties in Sections 1(j) or 3(a) of Exhibit III is not true with respect to any Pool Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full and shall immediately pay any and all such amounts to a Lock-Box Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrator at such time) for the benefit of the Purchasers and their assigns and for application pursuant to this Section 1.4 (Collections deemed to have been received pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (e) are hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Deemed Collections”);

-7-

(iii) except as otherwise required by applicable law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates in writing its payment for application to specific Receivables; and

(iv) if and to the extent the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor (or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any Insolvency Proceeding) any amount received by it hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received by such Person but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, such Person shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

(f) If at any time the Seller shall wish to cause the reduction of Aggregate Capital (but not to commence the liquidation, or reduction to zero, of the entire Aggregate Capital) the Seller may do so as follows:

(i) the Seller shall give the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and the Servicer written notice in the form of Annex E (each, a “Paydown Notice”) (A) at least two Business Days prior to the date of such reduction for any reduction of the Aggregate Capital less than or equal to $20,000,000 (or such greater amount as agreed to by the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents) and (B) at least five Business Days prior to the date of such reduction for any reduction of the Aggregate Capital greater than $20,000,000, and each such Paydown Notice shall include, among other things, the amount of such proposed reduction and the proposed date on which such reduction will commence;

(ii) on the proposed date of the commencement of such reduction and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall cause Collections not to be reinvested until the amount thereof not so reinvested shall equal the desired amount of reduction; and

(iii) the Servicer shall hold such Collections in trust for the benefit of each Purchaser ratably according to its Capital, for payment to each such Purchaser (or its related Purchaser Agent for the benefit of such Purchaser) on the next Settlement Date (or such other date as agreed to by the Administrator) with respect to any Portions of Capital maintained by such Purchaser immediately following the related current Yield Period, and the Aggregate Capital (together with the Capital of any related Purchaser) shall be deemed reduced in the amount to be paid to such Purchaser (or its related Purchaser Agent for the benefit of such Purchaser) only when in fact finally so paid;

provided, that:

(A) the amount of any such reduction shall be not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (to be applied pro rata in accordance with the Aggregate Capital outstanding) and, on and after August 29, 2008, the entire Aggregate Capital after giving

-8-

effect to such reduction shall be not less than $75,000,000 and the Purchased Interest shall not exceed 100%; and

(B) with respect to any Portion of Capital, the Seller shall choose a reduction amount, and the date of commencement thereof, so that to the extent practicable such reduction shall commence and conclude in the same Yield Period.

Section 1.5 Fees. The Seller shall pay to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers and Liquidity Providers in the related Purchaser Group and/or the Structuring Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 1.4(d) certain fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in one or more fee letter agreements, dated the Closing Date (or dated the date any such Purchaser and member of its related Purchaser Group become a party hereto pursuant to an Assumption Agreement, a Transfer Supplement or otherwise), among the Seller, the applicable Purchaser Agent, the Administrator and/or the Structuring Agent, respectively, (as any such fee letter agreement may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, each, a “Purchaser Group Fee Letter”) and each of the Purchaser Group Fee Letters may be referred to collectively as, the “Fee Letters”).

Section 1.6 Payments and Computations, Etc.

(a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made without reduction for offset or counterclaim and shall be paid or deposited no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the account for each Purchaser maintained by the applicable Purchaser Agent (or such other account as may be designated from time to time by such Purchaser Agent to the Seller and the Servicer). All amounts received after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day.

(b) The Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, when due hereunder, at an interest rate equal to 2.0% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand.

(c) All computations of interest under paragraph (b) and all computations of Discount, Fees and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 (or 365 or 366, as applicable, with respect to Discount or other amounts calculated by reference to the Base Rate) days for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.

Section 1.7 Increased Costs. (I) If, after the date hereof, the Administrator, any Purchaser, Purchaser Agent, Liquidity Provider or Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates (each an “Affected Person”) determines that the existence of or compliance with: (i) FIN 46 and Subsequent Statements and Interpretations, (ii) any law, rule, regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy), generally accepted accounting

-9-

principle or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, or (iii) any request, guideline or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affecting or that would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Affected Person, and such Affected Person determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any commitment to make Purchases of (or otherwise to maintain the investment in) Pool Receivables or any related liquidity facility, credit enhancement facility and other commitments of the same type, then, upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Administrator), the Seller shall promptly pay such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for both increased costs and maintenance of bargained for yield in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Affected Person determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of any of such commitments. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by an authorized officer of such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(a) If, after the date hereof, due to either: (i) FIN 46 and Subsequent Statements and Interpretations, (ii) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, regulation or rule or (iii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Person of agreeing to purchase or purchasing, or maintaining the ownership of, the Purchased Interest (or its portion thereof) in respect of which Discount is computed by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, then, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for both increased costs and maintenance of bargained for yield. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by an authorized officer of such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in cost and/or reduction in yield caused by regulatory capital allocation adjustments due to Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Interpretation 46 (revised December 2003) Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities and Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (or any future statement or interpretation issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any successor thereto) (collectively, the “FIN 46 and Subsequent Statements and Interpretations”) shall be covered by this Section 1.7.

Section 1.8 Requirements of Law. (I) If, after the date hereof, any Affected Person determines that (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule or regulation after the date hereof, or (ii) compliance with any request, guideline or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) made after the date hereof:

(i) does or shall subject such Affected Person to any increase in the Purchased Interest (or its portion thereof) or in the amount of Capital relating thereto,

(ii) does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, Purchases, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any

-10-

other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Affected Person that are not otherwise included in the determination of the Euro-Rate or LMIR hereunder,

and the result of any of the foregoing is: (1) to increase the cost to such Affected Person of agreeing to purchase or purchasing or maintaining the ownership of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest (or interests therein) or any Portion of Capital, or (2) to reduce any amount receivable hereunder (whether directly or indirectly), then, in any such case, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person additional amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Person for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable. All such amounts shall be payable as incurred.

(b) If an Affected Person requests compensation under this Section 1.8, a certificate describing in reasonable detail such amounts and the basis for such Affected Person’s demand for such amounts shall be submitted to the Seller and the applicable Purchaser Agent by such Affected Person and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 1.9 Funding Losses. (I) The Seller shall compensate each Affected Person, upon written request by such Person for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Affected Person to lenders of funds borrowed by it to fund or maintain any Portion of Capital hereunder at an interest rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR and any loss sustained by such Person in connection with the re-employment of such funds), which such Affected Person may sustain with respect to funding or maintaining such Portion of Capital at the Euro-Rate or LMIR if, for any reason, after the applicable request by the Seller to fund or maintain such Portion of Capital at an interest rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, such funding or maintenance does not occur on a date specified therefor.

(a) If an Affected Person requests compensation under this Section 1.9, a certificate describing in reasonable detail such amounts and the basis for such Affected Person’s demand for such amounts shall be submitted to the Seller and the applicable Purchaser Agent by such Affected Person and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

Section 1.10 Taxes. (a) The Seller agrees that:

(i) Any and all payments by the Seller under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however that such payments shall exclude overall income or franchise taxes, in either case, imposed on the Person receiving such payment by the Seller hereunder by the jurisdiction under whose laws such Person is organized, the jurisdiction of such Person’s principal place of business or the jurisdiction in which such Person holds its undivided percentage ownership interest in the Purchased Interest, or any political subdivision thereof (all such Taxes other than those referred to in the proviso above shall hereinafter be referred to as “Indemnified Taxes”). If the Seller shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Purchaser, any Liquidity Provider, Program Support Provider or the Administrator, then the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary to yield to such Person (after

-11-

payment of all Taxes) an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

(ii) Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Seller, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Seller shall send to the Administrator for its own account or for the account of any Purchaser or any Liquidity Provider or other Program Support Provider, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt showing payment thereof or such other evidence of such payment as may be available to the Seller and acceptable to the taxing authorities having jurisdiction over such Person. If the Seller fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrator the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Seller shall indemnify the Administrator and/or any other Affected Person, as applicable, for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such party as a result of any such failure.

(b) The Seller shall indemnify each Affected Person within ten days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by such Affected Party on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Seller hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 1.10) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. None of Sections 1.7, 1.8, 3.1, 3.2 or 6.4(a) shall apply to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by this Section 1.10.

(c) If an Affected Person determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund or credit of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Seller, it shall pay over such refund or credit to the Seller (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Seller under this Section 1.10 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Affected Person and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund net of any applicable Taxes payable in respect of such interest); provided, that the Seller, upon the request of such Affected Person, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Seller (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Affected Person in the event such Affected Person is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 1.10 shall not be construed to require any Affected Person to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Seller or any other Person.

(d) If an Affected Person requests indemnification or repayment under this Section 1.10, a certificate describing in reasonable detail such amounts and the basis for such Affected Person’s demand for such amounts shall be submitted to the Seller and the applicable Purchaser Agent by such Affected Person and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 1.11 Inability to Determine Euro-Rate or LMIR. (I) If the Administrator (or any Purchaser Agent) determines before the first day of any Yield Period (or solely with respect to LMIR, on any day) (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, by reason of

-12-

circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market generally, (i) deposits in dollars (in the relevant amounts for such Yield Period) are not being offered to banks in the interbank eurodollar market for such Yield Period, (ii) adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Euro-Rate or LMIR for such Yield Period (or portion thereof) or (iii) the Euro-Rate or LMIR does not accurately reflect the cost to any Purchaser (as determined by the related Purchaser or the applicable Purchaser Agent) of maintaining any Portion of Capital during such Yield Period (or portion thereof), then the Administrator shall give notice thereof to the Seller. Thereafter, until the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, (a) no Portion of Capital shall be funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR and (b) the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Capital then funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR shall, on the last day of the then current Yield Period (or solely with respect to LMIR, immediately), be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate.

(a) If, on or before the first day of any Yield Period (or solely with respect to LMIR, on any day), the Administrator shall have been notified by any Purchaser, Purchaser Agent or Liquidity Provider that such Person has determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, any enactment, promulgation or adoption of or any change after the date hereof in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Person with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Person to fund or maintain any Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, the Administrator shall notify the Seller thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, until the Administrator notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply, (a) no Portion of Capital shall be funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR and (b) the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Capital then funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR shall be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate either (i) on the last day of the then current Yield Period (or solely with respect to LMIR, immediately) if such Person may lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR to such day, or (ii) immediately, if such Person may not lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR to such day.

Section 1.12 Successor Euro-Rate or LMIR.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if the Administrator determines that a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Event has occurred with respect to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, the Administrator and the Seller may amend this Agreement to replace the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, with a Benchmark Replacement; and any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrator has provided such proposed amendment to all Purchasers, so long as the Administrator has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from the Majority Purchaser Agents. Until the Benchmark Replacement with

-13-

respect to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, is effective, each Portion of Capital funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR will continue to be funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable; provided however, during a Benchmark Unavailability Period (i) the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Capital then funded at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to (A) the Euro-Rate shall be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate at the expiration of the existing Yield Period (or sooner, if the Administrator cannot continue to lawfully maintain such affected Portion of Capital at the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable) and (B) LMIR shall be converted to the Alternate Rate determined by reference to the Base Rate immediately and (ii) the component of the Alternate Rate based upon the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Rate.

(b) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrator will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(c) The Administrator will promptly notify the Seller and the Purchasers of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iii) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrator or the Majority Purchaser Agents pursuant to this Section 1.12 including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 1.12.

Section 1.13 Notice of Purchaser Termination Date. Each Purchaser Agent agrees to give the Seller, the Servicer and the Administrator written notice of the decision by the Liquidity Providers under the Liquidity Agreement related to the Conduit Purchaser in such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group regarding the extension of the then current scheduled commitment expiration date under such Liquidity Agreement at least 90 days’ prior to such scheduled commitment expiration date.

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTIONS

Section 4.1 Appointment of the Servicer.

(a) The servicing, administering and collection of the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by the Person so designated from time to time as the Servicer in accordance with this Section 4.1. Until the Administrator gives notice to Triumph (in accordance with this Section 4.1) of the designation of a new Servicer, Triumph is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Administrator may (with the consent of the Majority Purchaser Agents) or shall (at the direction of the Majority Purchaser Agents) designate as Servicer any Person (including itself) to succeed Triumph or any successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that any such Person so designated shall agree to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) Upon the designation of a successor Servicer as set forth in paragraph (a), Triumph agrees that it will terminate its activities as Servicer hereunder in a manner that the Administrator determines will facilitate the transition of the performance of such activities to the new Servicer, and Triumph shall cooperate with and assist such new Servicer. In connection with such cooperation, Triumph shall, upon request by the Administrator: (i) assemble all of the records (including all Contracts) necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security and

-17-

transfer such records to the successor Servicer, (ii) transfer or license to the successor Servicer the use of all licenses, hardware or software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and make the same available to the Administrator or its designee (for the benefit of the Purchasers), at a place selected by the Administrator, and (iii) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrator and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrator or its designee.

(c) Triumph acknowledges that, in making their decision to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Administrator and each member in each Purchaser Group have relied on Triumph’s agreement to act as Servicer hereunder. Accordingly, Triumph agrees that it will not voluntarily resign as Servicer.

(d) The Servicer may delegate its duties and obligations hereunder to any subservicer (each a “Sub-Servicer”); provided, that, in each such delegation: (i) such Sub-Servicer shall have agreed in writing to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance of the duties and obligations so delegated, (iii) the Seller, the Administrator and each member of each Purchaser Group shall have the right to look solely to the Servicer for performance, and (iv) the terms of any agreement with any Sub-Servicer shall provide that the Administrator may terminate such agreement upon the termination of the Servicer hereunder by giving notice of its desire to terminate such agreement to the Servicer (and the Servicer shall provide appropriate notice to each such Sub-Servicer); provided, however, that if any such delegation is to any Person other than an Originator or an Affiliate of Triumph, the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents shall have consented in writing in advance to such delegation.

(e) At any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Termination Event, the Administrator may request the Servicer to, and upon such request the Servicer shall: (i) assemble all of the records reasonably necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and transfer or license to a successor Servicer, except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, licenses or other agreement, the use of all software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and make the same available to the Administrator or its designee (for the benefit of the Purchasers), except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, licenses or other agreement, at a place selected by the Administrator, and (ii) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrator and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrator or its designee.

Section 4.2 Duties of the Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or advisable to administer and collect each Pool Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with this Agreement and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy. The Servicer shall set aside

-18-

for the accounts of the Seller and the Purchasers the amount of Collections to which each is entitled in accordance with Article I hereof. The Servicer may, in accordance with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy, take such action, including extensions, amendments, modifications, waivers or restructurings of Pool Receivables and the related Contracts (each such action, a “Modification”), as the Servicer may reasonably determine to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof or reflect adjustments permitted under the Credit and Collection Policies; provided, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement: (i) no Modification shall change the number of days such Pool Receivable has remained unpaid from the date of the original due date related to such Pool Receivable, (ii) no Modification shall alter the status of such Pool Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or a Defaulted Receivable under this Agreement or limit the rights of any Purchaser, Purchaser Agent or the Administrator under this Agreement and (iii) if a Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing and Triumph or an Affiliate thereof is serving as the Servicer, Triumph or such Affiliate may make a Modification only upon prior approval of the Administrator. The Seller shall deliver to the Servicer and the Servicer shall hold for the benefit of the Seller and the Administrator (individually and for the benefit of the Purchasers, in accordance with their respective interests), all records and documents (including computer tapes or disks) with respect to each Pool Receivable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Administrator (with the consent of the Majority Purchaser Agents) may direct the Servicer (whether the Service is Triumph or any other Person) to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Pool Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(b) The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following actual receipt of collected funds, turn over to the Seller the collections of any indebtedness to which the Seller is entitled that is not a Pool Receivable, less, if Triumph or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Servicer of servicing, collecting and administering such collections. The Servicer, if other than Triumph or an Affiliate thereof, shall, as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Seller all records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness to which the Seller is entitled that is not a Pool Receivable, and copies of records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is a Pool Receivable.

(c) The Servicer’s obligations hereunder shall terminate on the later of: (i) the Facility Termination Date and (ii) the date on which all amounts required to be paid to the Purchaser Agents, each Purchaser, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person hereunder shall have been paid in full.

After such termination, if Triumph or an Affiliate thereof was not the Servicer on the date of such termination, the Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Seller all books, records and related materials that the Seller previously provided to the Servicer, or that have been obtained by the Servicer, in connection with this Agreement.

Section 4.3 Lock-Box Account Arrangements. Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall have entered into Lock-Box Agreements with all of the Lock-Box Banks and delivered counterparts of each to the Administrator. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Administrator may (with the consent of the Majority Purchaser Agents) or shall (upon the direction of the Majority

-19-

Purchaser Agents) at any time thereafter give notice to each Lock-Box Bank that the Administrator is exercising its rights under the Lock-Box Agreements to do any or all of the following: (a) to have the exclusive control of the Lock-Box Accounts transferred to the Administrator (for the benefit of the Purchasers) and to exercise exclusive dominion and control over the funds deposited therein, (b) to have the Collections that are sent to the respective Lock-Box Accounts redirected pursuant to the Administrator’s instructions rather than deposited in the applicable Lock-Box Account, and (c) to take any or all other actions permitted under the applicable Lock-Box Agreement. The Seller hereby agrees that if the Administrator gives such notice to a Lock-Box Bank that the Administrator is exercising its rights under the related Lock-Box Agreement pursuant to clause (a) above, the Administrator shall have exclusive control (for the benefit of the Purchasers) of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Pool Receivables and the Seller hereby further agrees to take any other action that the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent may reasonably request to transfer such control. Any proceeds of Pool Receivables received by the Seller or the Servicer thereafter shall be sent immediately to, or as otherwise instructed by, the Administrator. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that if at any time the Administrator takes control of any Lock-Box Account, the Administrator shall not have any rights to the funds therein in excess of the unpaid amounts due to the Administrator, any member of any Purchaser Group, any Indemnified Party or Affected Person or any other Person hereunder, and the Administrator shall distribute or cause to be distributed such funds in accordance with Section 4.2(b) and Article I (in each case as if such funds were held by the Servicer thereunder).

Section 4.4 Enforcement Rights.

(a) At any time following the occurrence of a Termination Event:

(i) the Administrator may direct the Obligors that payment of all amounts payable under any Pool Receivable is to be made directly to the Administrator or its designee;

(ii) the Administrator may instruct the Seller or the Servicer to give notice of the Purchaser Groups’ interest in Pool Receivables to each Obligor, which notice shall direct that payments be made directly to the Administrator or its designee on behalf of such Purchaser Groups), and the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall give such notice at the expense of the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be; provided, that if the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may, fails to so promptly notify each Obligor, the Administrator (at the Seller’s or the Servicer’s, as the case may be, expense) may so notify the Obligors,

(iii) the Administrator may request the Servicer to, and upon such request the Servicer shall: (A) assemble all of the records necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and transfer or license to a successor Servicer the use of all software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and make the same available to the Administrator or its designee (for the benefit of the Purchasers) at a place selected by the Administrator, and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections in a manner acceptable to the Administrator and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrator or its designee; and

-20-

(iv) the Administrator may collect any amounts due from any Originator under the Sale Agreement.

(b) The Seller hereby authorizes the Administrator (on behalf of each Purchaser Group), and irrevocably appoints the Administrator as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of the Seller, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to take any and all steps in the name of the Seller and on behalf of the Seller necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Administrator, after the occurrence of a Termination Event, to collect any and all amounts or portions thereof due under any and all Pool Assets, including endorsing the name of the Seller on checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing such Pool Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, none of the powers conferred upon such attorney-in-fact pursuant to the preceding sentence shall subject such attorney-in-fact to any liability if any action taken by it shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, nor shall they confer any obligations upon such attorney-in-fact in any manner whatsoever.

Section 4.5 Responsibilities of the Seller.

(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Seller shall: (i) perform all of its obligations, if any, under the Contracts related to the Pool Receivables to the same extent as if interests in such Pool Receivables had not been transferred hereunder, and the exercise by the Administrator, the Purchaser Agents or the Purchasers of their respective rights hereunder shall not relieve the Seller from such obligations, and (ii) pay when due any taxes, including any sales taxes payable in connection with the Pool Receivables and their creation and satisfaction. The Administrator, the Purchaser Agents or any of the Purchasers shall not have any obligation or liability with respect to any Pool Asset, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Seller, Servicer, Triumph or the Originators thereunder.

(b) Triumph hereby irrevocably agrees that if at any time it shall cease to be the Servicer hereunder, it shall act (if the then-current Servicer so requests) as the data-processing agent of the Servicer and, in such capacity, Triumph shall conduct the data-processing functions of the administration of the Receivables and the Collections thereon in substantially the same way that Triumph conducted such data-processing functions while it acted as the Servicer.

Section 4.6 Servicing Fee. (IV) Subject to paragraph (b), the Servicer shall be paid a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) equal to 1.00% per annum (the “Servicing Fee Rate”) of the average aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Pool Receivables. The Purchasers’ Share of such fee shall be paid through the distributions contemplated by Section 1.4(d), and the Seller’s Share of such fee shall be paid directly by the Seller.

(a) If the Servicer ceases to be Triumph or an Affiliate thereof, the servicing fee shall be the greater of: (i) the amount calculated pursuant to paragraph (a), and (ii) an alternative amount specified by the successor Servicer not to exceed 105% of the aggregate reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such successor Servicer in connection with the performance of its obligations as Servicer.

(c) Assignments by Related Committed Purchasers. Any Related Committed Purchaser may assign to one or more Persons (each, a “Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser”), acceptable to (i) the Administrator and the related Purchaser Agent, in its sole discretion if such assignee is an Affiliate of any member of an existing Purchaser Group and (ii) solely with respect to any assignee that is not an Affiliate of a member of an existing Purchaser Group, the Administrator and the related Purchaser Agent and, so long as no Termination Event has occurred, the Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), any portion of its Commitment 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.
