Each such sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance shall be executed without recourse (other than as expressly provided herein). Immediately prior to the sales contemplated hereunder, T-Mobile PCS Holdings will acquire the Receivables from the Originators pursuant to the terms of the Conveyancing Agreement

(b) The sales, transfers, assignments, set-overs and conveyances described above shall be made in consideration of the Funding Purchaser’s payment, in respect of each such Receivable and Related Rights, of a purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) therefor in an amount equal to the face value of the Receivable as of the Purchase Date or any other amount at least equal to the fair market value thereof that is mutually agreed upon by T-Mobile PCS

Holdings and the Funding Purchaser as of the Purchase Date (as determined by T-Mobile PCS Holdings and the Funding Purchaser in their reasonable discretion computed by taking into account factors such as historical losses, servicing fees, delinquencies and paydown rates, yield and such other factors as T-Mobile PCS Holdings and the Funding Purchaser mutually agree).

(c) The Purchase Price for Receivables and associated Related Rights purchased by the Funding Purchaser from T-Mobile PCS Holdings shall be paid by the Funding Purchaser on each date of purchase as follows:

(i) to the extent available for such purpose, in cash held by the Funding Purchaser; and

(ii) to the extent that available cash on such date of purchase is less than the Purchase Price, by, at the discretion of T-Mobile PCS Holdings, either: (a) an increase in the Receivables Deferred Purchase Price up to the Maximum Aggregate Receivables Deferred Purchase Price, or (b) a capital contribution by T-Mobile PCS Holdings to the Funding Purchaser in respect of T-Mobile PCS Holdings’ sole membership interest in the Funding Purchaser, deemed a concurrent assignment and conveyance thereof, in an amount equal to the amounts that remain payable for purchases by the Funding Purchaser following the application of clauses (i) and (ii)(a).

(d) To the extent that, after cash is paid by the Funding Purchaser to T-Mobile PCS Holdings pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(c)(i), the Funding Purchaser has any remaining cash, such remaining cash will be applied by the parties to decrease the outstanding Deferred Purchase Price by such available amount.

(e) The foregoing assignments, transfers, set-overs, and conveyances do not constitute and are not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Funding Purchaser of any obligation of T-Mobile PCS Holdings or the applicable Originator in connection with the Receivables and Related Rights being so assigned or conveyed, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including, without limitation, (i) any obligation to any Obligor and (ii) any taxes, fees, or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority.

(f) From time to time on any date and in their discretion, T-Mobile PCS Holdings shall have the power to convert all (or a portion) of the Receivables Deferred Purchase Price owed by the Funding Purchaser to T-Mobile PCS Holdings on such date into a capital contribution from T-Mobile PCS Holdings to the Funding Purchaser in respect of T-Mobile PCS Holdings’ sole membership interest in the Funding Purchaser.

(g) The parties hereto intend and agree that any conveyance hereunder is intended to be a conveyance and transfer of ownership of the Receivables and Related Rights and that such Receivables and Related Rights shall not be part of T-Mobile PCS Holdings’ estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against any such Person under any Insolvency Law. In the event, however, that notwithstanding such intent and agreement, a conveyance contemplated hereby is determined not to be a conveyance of ownership, T-Mobile PCS Holdings hereby grants and assigns to the Funding Purchaser a perfected first priority security interest in such Receivables and Related Rights and (ii) all

income from and proceeds of the foregoing, and this Agreement, shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, securing (i) the obligations of T-Mobile PCS Holdings to the Funding Purchaser hereunder. If such conveyance is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a borrowing, the Funding Purchaser may, to secure the Funding Purchaser’s own borrowing under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (to the extent that the transfer of Receivables thereunder is deemed to be a mere granting of security interest to secure a borrowing), repledge and reassign (i) all or a portion of the Receivables and the Related Rights thereunder pledged to the Funding Purchaser and not released from the security interest of this Agreement at the time of such pledge and assignment and (ii) all income from and proceeds of the foregoing. Such repledge and reassignment may be made by the Funding Purchaser with or without a repledge and reassignment by T-Mobile PCS Holdings of its rights under this Agreement, and without further notice to or acknowledgment from T-Mobile PCS Holdings or any other Person. T-Mobile PCS Holdings waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the Funding Purchaser or any Purchasing Entity relating to such action by the Funding Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 2.02 Assignment of Agreement. The Funding Purchaser has the right to assign its interest under this Agreement to Billing Gate One as required to effect the purposes of the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, without further notice to, or consent of, T-Mobile PCS Holdings, and Billing Gate One (together with the other Purchasing Entities) shall succeed to such of the rights of the Funding Purchaser hereunder as shall be so assigned. T-Mobile PCS Holdings acknowledges that, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Funding Purchaser will assign all of its right, title and interest in and to all Receivables and Related Rights and its rights hereunder against T-Mobile PCS Holdings hereunder, to Billing Gate One, and that Billing Gate One may further convey such interests and rights pursuant to the Transaction Documents to the other Purchasing Entities. T-Mobile PCS Holdings agrees that, upon such assignment to Billing Gate One, such interests and rights will run to and be for the benefit of Billing Gate One (and the other Purchasing Entities) and that Billing Gate One (and/or the other Purchasing Entities) may enforce directly, without joinder of T-Mobile PCS Holdings, its rights or interests hereunder in respect of the Receivables and Related Rights so conveyed. T-Mobile PCS Holdings agrees that the Bank Purchasing Agent shall have the right to enforce this Agreement and each other Transaction Document and to exercise directly all of the Funding Purchaser’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document (including the right to give or withhold any consents or approvals of the Funding Purchaser to be given or withheld hereunder), and T-Mobile PCS Holdings agrees to cooperate fully with the Bank Purchasing Agent in the exercise of such rights and remedies. T-Mobile PCS Holdings further agrees to give the Bank Purchasing Agent copies of all notices and reports it is required to give to the Funding Purchaser hereunder.

(q) Transfer of Receivables. Immediately preceding its sale of any Receivables to the Funding Purchaser, the Seller, was the owner of such Receivables, free and clear of any lien and after such sale of Receivables to the Funding Purchaser, the Funding Purchaser shall at all times have a valid ownership interest in the Receivables and ownership of the Receivables shall be vested in the Funding Purchaser.

and each exhibit, financial statement, document, book, record or report furnished at any time by or on behalf of T-Mobile PCS Holdings to the Funding Purchaser in connection with this Agreement is true, complete and accurate in all material respects as of its date or as of the date so furnished, and, as of such date, no such document contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
