specified Eligible Accounts offered for sale to the Factor by Midway, together with the Related
Assets relating to such Eligible Accounts, pursuant to a notice in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto (a “Purchase Notice”, and each such purchase of one or more Accounts on a
single Conveyance Date, a “Purchase”) for a purchase price equal to the Purchase Price with
respect to such Eligible Account (a “Sold Account”) provided, that, without the
prior written consent of the Factor, there shall be no more than eight Purchases hereunder in any
single calendar month.
It is the intention of the parties hereto that each purchase of Sold Accounts made hereunder shall
constitute a “sale of accounts,” as such term is used in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code,
which sales are absolute and irrevocable and provide the Factor with the full risks and benefits of
ownership of the Sold Accounts, including without limitation any Credit Risk for the Sold Accounts.
Neither Midway nor the Factor intends the transactions contemplated hereunder to be, or for any

for amounts due to Midway in connection with Dilution Adjustment as provided in Section
2.4(b) or 2.4 (e)(A) hereof, each sale of Sold Accounts by Midway to the Factor is made

and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Factor
or any assignee thereof of any obligation of Midway or any other person arising in connection with
the Sold Accounts or the Related Assets, or any other obligations of Midway. In view of the
intention of the parties hereto that the purchases of Sold Accounts made hereunder shall constitute
sales of such Sold Accounts rather than a loan secured by such Sold Accounts, each of Midway and
the Factor agrees to note on its financial statements and in its books and records that the Sold
Accounts have been sold to the Factor, to treat the sale of Sold Accounts hereunder as sales for
United States federal income tax purposes, and to respond to any inquiries made by third-parties
who would otherwise be entitled to such information as to the ownership of the Sold Accounts so
sold that such Sold Accounts have been sold to the Factor. The sale of Accounts pursuant to the
terms hereof is not on account of any
* | Information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment under Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
9
antecedent debt, including without limitation any debt owed by Midway to the Factor under the
Senior Loan Agreement.
2.2 Procedure for Purchases. Midway shall deliver to the Factor a Purchase Notice for
each sale hereunder (which notice must be received by the Factor no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago
time) on the second Business Day prior to the date that is the requested Conveyance Date, which
shall be a Business Day). At the Factor’s election, in lieu of delivering the above-described
Purchase Notice, Midway may give the Factor telephonic notice of such request by the required time.
In such circumstances, Midway agrees that any such telephonic notice will be confirmed with a
Purchase Notice within 24 hours of the giving of such notice and the failure to provide such
Purchase Notice shall not affect the validity of the request. After receipt of a Purchase Notice
pursuant to this Section 2.2, the Factor shall, by not later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time)
on the applicable Conveyance Date, make available to Midway by transferring immediately available
funds equal to the Purchase Price for the Eligible Accounts designated in such Purchase Notice to
the Concentration Account; provided, that, at the election of the Factor, the Factor may
offset any outstanding amount owed by Midway to the Factor pursuant to the indemnification
provisions of Section 11.2 from the proceeds of the Purchase Price remitted to the
Collection Account so long as an invoice of such indemnification amount was delivered to Midway at
least seven (7) days prior to such Conveyance Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Factor shall have no obligation to purchase any Eligible Account if the Factor shall have actual
knowledge that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2
will not be satisfied on the requested Conveyance Date for such purchase unless such condition has
been waived.
2.3 Forecasted Dilution Percentage; Anticipated Collection Date. (a) The Forecasted
Dilution Percentage with respect to any Accounts sold hereunder during the period from the Closing
Date to but excluding the first Recalculation Date shall be 23%. On each Recalculation Date,
Midway and the Factor will determine the estimated aggregate Dilution, as a percentage of aggregate
Initial Balances, with respect to Accounts expected to be sold during the period from such
Recalculation Date to but excluding the next Recalculation Date, which shall be the Forecasted
Dilution Percentage with respect to any Accounts sold hereunder during such period. Such
calculation shall use the same methodology used to determine the initial Forecasted Dilution
Percentage prior to the Closing Date; provided, that the Forecasted Dilution Percentage for
any period shall in no event be less than 10%.
(b) The Anticipated Collection Date with respect to any Account sold hereunder during the
period from the Closing Date to but excluding the first Recalculation Date shall mean the date
which is 54 days after the date such Account was generated. On each Recalculation Date, Midway and
the Factor will determine the estimated aggregate average days from generation to collection with
respect to Accounts expected to be sold during the period from such Recalculation Date to but
excluding the next Recalculation Date, and the Anticipated Collection Date with respect to any such
Account sold hereunder during such period shall be the date which is such number of days after the
date such Account was generated. Such calculation shall use the same methodology used to determine
the reference number of days for the initial Anticipated Collection Date prior to the Closing Date.

2.4 Settlement of Accounts.1
(a) | The calculation of the Purchase Price with respect to each Sold Account is based in part on the Forecasted Dilution Amount of such Sold Account. In light of the timing of each sale of Sold Accounts, the Forecasted Dilution Amount has been estimated by Midway and the Factor as the anticipated amount of Dilution with respect to such Sold Account. | ||
(b) | With respect to each Sold Account, by no later than the third Business Day following the Settlement Date for such Sold Account, the Servicer shall prepare and deliver a notice with respect to all Sold Accounts having such same Settlement Date (a “Settlement Notice”) to each of Midway and the Factor, which Settlement Notice shall include, among other things, the aggregate amount of Payments with respect to such Sold Accounts received from or on behalf of the related Customers (“Customer Payments”) and the total net Dilution Adjustment with respect such Sold Accounts due to Midway or to the Factor, as the case may be. If such total net Dilution Adjustment is a positive number, such number shall be shown on the Settlement Notice as an amount due from Midway to the Factor; alternatively, if the Dilution Adjustment is a negative number, such number shall be shown on the Settlement Notice as an amount due from the Factor to Midway. | ||
(c) | By no later than the third Business Day following the Settlement Date for any Sold Account, the Servicer shall remit to the account designated by the Factor the total aggregate Customer Payments in respect of all Sold Accounts having the same such Settlement Date plus or minus the total net Dilution Adjustment described in the next two sentences. To the extent that the total net Dilution Adjustment for such Sold Accounts is a negative number, the Factor shall pay to Midway the amount, if any, shown on the Settlement Notice as the net amount due from the Factor to Midway; provided, such total net Dilution Adjustment shall be paid: first, by offsetting such amount against the aggregate Customer Payments in respect of such Sold Accounts and otherwise payable to the Factor in respect of such Sold Accounts and second, to the extent such total net Dilution Adjustment exceeds such Customer Payments, by payment from the Factor to Midway in immediately available funds. To the extent that the total net Dilution Adjustment for such Sold Accounts is positive, Midway (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall pay to the Factor the amount, if any, shown on the Settlement Notice as the net amount due from the Factor to Midway. | ||
(d) | If at any time after the Settlement Date with respect to any Sold Account the Servicer determines that any amount which was treated as Dilution in |
1 | An example calculation is provided as Exhibit C hereto. | |
* | Information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment under Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
11
the calculation of any Dilution Adjustment was in fact an amount unpaid by the related Customer because of Credit Risk, the Servicer shall notify the Factor of such fact and the Factor shall remit such amount to Midway as reimbursement within three Business Days of such notification. | |||
(e) | If at any time after the Settlement Date with respect to any Sold Account Midway or the Servicer receives any Payment on such Sold Account, (A) to the extent such Payment was in respect of an amount treated as Dilution in the calculation of any Dilution Adjustment under clause (c) above, but with respect to which Midway was not subsequently reimbursed under clause (d) above, the Servicer shall remit to Midway (or Midway shall keep) such amount, and (B) any remaining portion of such Payment shall be remitted by Midway or the Servicer, as applicable, to the Factor within three Business Days after receipt. |
2.5 UCC Financing Statement. Midway hereby consents to, authorizes and ratifies the
filing by the Factor or its assignee of all necessary continuation statements and any amendments to
UCC-1 financing statements, and to take such additional actions and execute such additional
documents and instruments, in each case as may be commercially reasonably necessary or desirable to
perfect the ownership interest of the Factor in and to the Sold Accounts.
2.6 Repurchase Obligation. In the event of the occurrence of a Repurchase Event,
Midway shall, unless such Repurchase Event shall have been cured in all respects to the Factor’s
satisfaction, purchase each Sold Account hereunder which is affected by or related to such
Repurchase Event from the Factor within 30 days of the discovery by or notice (from any Person) to
Midway of such Repurchase Event, and Midway shall pay to the Factor an amount equal to (i) the
Purchase Price with respect to such Sold Account minus (ii) all Factor Payments received by the
Factor in respect of such Sold Account. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of Midway
to cure a Repurchase Event or purchase the Sold Accounts sold hereunder which are affected by or
related to such Repurchase Event is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guaranty of the
collectibility or payment of any Sold Account which is not collected, not paid or uncollectible
solely on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the related
Customer.

If at any time the Factor shall designate any successor Servicer, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated (in accordance with the previous sentence) by the Servicer being replaced may, at the discretion of the Factor, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Factor to the Servicer being replaced and to MAG. | ||

EXHIBIT C
Settlement Calculation Example
Purely for illustrative purposes, presented below is an example of the calculation of a purchase
price, fees and settlement procedures:
Midway sells a single $1,000,000 invoice from [*] to NAI on the day it is generated, September 15.
Since it is sold on the day it was generated, the expected collection period is 54 days (since
there has not been a recalculation, yet), and since it is a [*] invoice, the index rate is Prime +
1.00% (so, if Prime on the Conveyance Date is 5%, the index rate is 6.00%), and the forecasted
dilution is 23% (since there has not been a recalculation, yet). (Note that in reality, because
of the 2 business day notice requirement, it may be unlikely that any account would be sold on the
same day it was generated).
A. | PURCHASE PRICE | |
Purchase Price = Initial Balance – (Initial Balance X Forecasted Dilution %) – Factoring Fee – Purchase Price Discount. | ||
i. | (Initial Balance X Forecasted Dilution %) is the expected dilution holdback, which in this case is: | |
$1,000,000 X 23% = $230,000 | ||
ii. | Purchase Price Discount = (Initial Balance – (Initial Balance X Forecasted Dilution %) X (Index Rate +1.00%) X Anticipated Collection/365 | |
PPD = ($1,000,000 – $230,000) X 6.00% X 54 / 365 | ||
PPD = $6,835.07 | ||
iii. | Factoring Fee = (Initial Balance – (Initial Balance X Forecasted Dilution %) – Purchase Price Discount) X 0.65% | |
FF = ($1,000,000 – $230,000 – $6,835.07) X 0.65% | ||
FF = $763,164.93 X 0.65% = $4,960.57 |
so,
Purchase Price = $1,000,000 – $230,000 – $4,960.57 – $6,835.07 = $758,204.36
B. SERVICING FEE:
In addition, NAI pays the Servicing Fee on the Conveyance Date:
Servicing Fee = Initial Balance X 0.15%
SF = $1,000,000 X 0.15% = $1,500
* | Information has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to a request for confidential treatment under Rule 24b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. |
So, the actual total amount NAI pays Midway + the Servicer (initially MAG) on the Conveyance Date
is:
$758,204.36 + $1,500 = $759,704.36
C. SETTLEMENT
Scenario 1 – If [*] pays Midway/MAG the full $1,000,000, and Midway/MAG identifies and applies the
collections to the Sold Account on November 1, the actual dilution is 0. The Servicer would remit
(or Midway would keep) $230,000, and the Servicer would remit the remaining $770,000 to NAI.
Scenario 2 – If [*] instead paid Midway $700,000, assuming there were no [*] credit reasons for not
paying more, the actual dilution would be $300,000 (this could be, for example, because $300,000 in
credits were applied, or even if the Customer held back the $300,000 because of a dispute over
credits (but not because it did not have the money). The Servicer would remit the full $700,000 to
NAI, and Midway would remit an additional $70,000 out its own pocket, for a total of $770,000 to
NAI. (Note that if any amount of the $300,000 was at the settlement time estimated to be unpaid
because of a non-credit reason (e.g. a dispute over available credits), but in fact was not paid
for credit reasons (e.g. a subsequent insolvency of the customer), NAI would have to reimburse such
amount to Midway (because NAI bears the credit risk)).2
When the money is applied to the Sold Account (Nov. 1), the Servicer would have three Business Days
from the date Midway/Servicer applied the collections to the Sold Account receipt to prepare and
deliver the Settlement Notice and settle up (Nov. 5).
Note also that the actual calculations will be done on an aggregate basis by Settlement Date.
2 | In cases where Dilution was estimated, but the payment was later in fact paid, the Servicer would remit such payment (on behalf of NAI) as reimbursement for the incorrect Dilution Adjustment. In contrast, in cases where a payment was not made because of credit risk (and not treated as Dilution), the Servicer would send such payment to NAI (for there would be no reimbursement obligation). | |
