AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSEQUENT CONTRACT TRANSFER AGREEMENT
("Agreement") dated as of June 1, 1999, between DVI RECEIVABLES X, L.L.C., a
Delaware limited liability company (the "Issuer"), and DVI RECEIVABLES CORP. X,
a Delaware corporation (the "Company").
WHEREAS, the Company will from time to time acquire certain
Contracts and other Contributed Property related thereto pursuant to the Amended
and Restated Contribution and Servicing Agreement dated as of the date hereof,
between the Company and DVI Financial Services Inc. (the "Contributor").
WHEREAS, the Company desires to transfer to Issuer all
Contributed Property (other than any ownership interest in certain Equipment)
which it acquires from the Contributor and certain other assets, and Issuer
desires to purchase such Contributed Property and other assets, in each instance
in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture (the
"Amended and Restated Indenture"), dated as of the date hereof, by and between
the Issuer and U.S. Bank Trust National Association (the "Trustee"), the Issuer
intends to issue its Series 1999-2 Notes, which will be collateralized by a
pledge by the Issuer to the Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders of all of the
Issuer's right, title and interest in, to and under the Trust Property.
WHEREAS, to facilitate the issuance of its Series 1999-2
Notes, the Issuer and the Company desire to amend and restate this Agreement in
its entirety.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties, in consideration of good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
DEFINITIONS
-----------
SECTION 1.01 Definitions.
-----------
For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein but not
otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in
Appendix I hereto.
ARTICLE II.
PROCEDURES FOR PURCHASES OF ELIGIBLE CONTRACTS
----------------------------------------------
SECTION 2.01 Transfer.
--------
(a) Conveyance. Upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, in
exchange for cash consideration received therefore and for other good and
valuable consideration, the Company hereby transfers, pledges, assigns and sells
to the Issuer on each Contribution Date (or, in the case of any
Substitute Contracts the related Substitution Date), without recourse except as
set forth herein, all of the Company's right, title and interest in and to the
Company Assets as set forth on the related Subsequent Contract Transfer Form.
All funds received by the Company on or in connection with the Company Assets
that are payable on and after the applicable Cut-off Date shall be received,
held and applied by the Company in trust for the benefit of the Issuer as owner
of the Contracts.
(b) After giving effect to such transfer and sale, the ownership of
each such Contract transferred on the related Contribution Date shall be vested
in the Issuer. The Contract Files and any other documents relating to each
Contract shall be held in trust by the Trustee for the benefit of the
Noteholders pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Indenture. The
Company agrees to take no action inconsistent with the ownership of any
Contract, to promptly indicate to all parties with a valid interest inquiring as
to the true ownership of each Contract, that each Contract has been transferred
and sold to the Issuer and to claim no ownership interest in any such Contracts
and the other Company Assets.
(c) Any Company Assets transferred to the Company from time to time
shall forthwith be transferred to the Issuer without further act,
notwithstanding the delivery of any Subsequent Contract Transfer Forms in
respect thereof.
SECTION 2.02 Substitute Contracts.
--------------------
In consideration for the transfer by the Issuer to the Company of any
Predecessor Contract transferred to the Company by the Issuer in accordance with
the terms and conditions of Section 7 of the Amended and Restated Contribution
and Servicing Agreement, the Company shall transfer to the Issuer on the
Substitution Date related thereto, and the Issuer shall accept, a Substitute
Contract; PROVIDED that such Substitute Contract is in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Amended and Restated Contribution and Servicing Agreement.
SECTION 2.03 Intent of Parties; Security Interest.
------------------------------------
The Issuer and the Company hereby confirm that the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement are intended as transfers, assignments,
conveyances and sales rather than as loan transactions. In the event, for any
reason, and solely in such event, any transaction hereunder is construed by any
court or regulatory authority as a loan or other than a transfer, assignment,
conveyance and sale of any or all Company Assets, then the Company shall be
deemed to have hereby pledged to the Issuer as security for the performance by
the Company of all of its obligations from time to time arising hereunder and
with respect to any and all purchases effected pursuant hereto, and shall be
deemed to have either assigned or granted to the Issuer a first priority
perfected (except Equipment for which the Original Equipment Cost is less than
$20,000 and subject to Finance Leases or Secured Equipment Notes, in which case,
the Company shall be deemed to have granted a valid security interest) security
interest in all of the Company Assets. In furtherance of the foregoing, (i) this
Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, (ii) the Trustee shall be
deemed to be a bailee for purposes of perfection of the security interest
granted to Issuer, (iii) Issuer shall have all of the rights of a secured party
with respect to the Company Assets pursuant to applicable
-2-
law and (iv) in the manner consistent with the Amended and Restated Indenture,
the Company shall execute all documents, including, but not limited to, UCC
financing statements, to effectively perfect and evidence Issuer's first
priority security interest in the Company Assets except that UCC financing
statements need not be filed with respect to Equipment for which the Original
Equipment Cost is less than $20,000 and subject to Finance Leases or Secured
Equipment Notes. The Company also covenants not to pledge, assign or grant any
security interest to any other party in any of the Company Assets. The
consideration received and to be received by the Company in exchange for the
transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Company Assets is intended to be fair
consideration having value equivalent to or in excess of the value of the assets
being transferred by the Company.
ARTICLE III.

of business or chief executive office occurs, then the Company shall deliver
thirty (30) days' prior written notice of such change or relocation to the

and fair consideration for the Company Assets.
-5-
SECTION 3.12 Nonconsolidation.

the Company and Contributor would not be disregarded in the event of a
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or Contributor, and in such regard,
among other things:
(a) the Company is not involved in the day to day management of
Contributor;
(b) the Company maintains separate corporate records and books of
account from Contributor and otherwise observes corporate formalities and has a
separate business office from Contributor (which may be at the same address as

prepared after the date of creation of Contributor reflect and will reflect the
separate existence of Contributor;

the Company's creditors;
(e) all business correspondence of the Company and other communications
are conducted in the Company's own name and on its own stationery;

ordinary business purposes and constitute a practical and reasonable course of
action by the Company designed to improve the financial position of the Company
with no contemplation of insolvency and with no intent to hinder, delay or
defraud any of its present or future creditors. Neither as a result of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nor immediately before or after
such transactions, will the

fair salable value.
SECTION 3.15 Valid Sale.
----------
This Agreement effects a valid assignment, transfer and conveyance of
the Company's interest in the Company Assets, enforceable against creditors of
the Company.
The consideration received by the Transferor upon the sale of the
Company Assets to the Issuer constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair
consideration for such Company Assets.
SECTION 3.16 Ability to Pay Debts.
--------------------
Neither as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
nor otherwise does the Company believe that it will incur debts beyond its
ability to pay or which would be prohibited by its charter documents or by-laws.
The Company's assets and cash flow enable it to meet its present obligations in
the ordinary course of business as they become due.
SECTION 3.17 Bulk Transfer Provisions.

Assets by the Company to the Issuer contemplated by this Agreement will be

government ("Transfer Taxes"). In the event that the Company or the Issuer
receives actual notice of any Transfer Taxes arising out of the transfer,
assignment and conveyance of any Company Assets, on written demand by the
Issuer, or upon the Company otherwise being given notice thereof, the Company
shall pay, and otherwise indemnify and hold the Issuer, the Trustee and the
