PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller may from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date, (x) request that the Purchasers make Incremental Purchases by delivering (or causing Collection Agent to deliver, on Seller’s behalf) a Purchase Notice to the Agent in accordance with Section 1.2(a) or by means of a deemed purchase request pursuant to Section 1.2(b), and (y) request that the LC Bank issue or cause the issuance of one or more Letters of Credit by delivering (or causing Collection Agent to deliver, on Seller’s behalf) a Letter of Credit Application to the LC Bank and the Agent in accordance with Section 1.7. Upon receipt of a Purchase Notice or a purchase request deemed delivered pursuant to Section 1.2(b), each of the Purchasers agrees to purchase its Percentage of such Receivable Interest, and upon receipt of a Letter of Credit Application, the LC Bank agrees to issue a Letter of Credit, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, provided that the Seller shall not request any such Incremental Purchase or Letter of Credit, and the Purchasers and the LC Bank shall not have any obligation to make any such Incremental Purchase or issue any such Letter of Credit, if after giving effect thereto:

(i) the Capital held by any Purchaser would exceed the lesser of (A) the amount of such Purchaser’s Commitment hereunder, and (B) such Purchaser’s Percentage of the excess of the Net Pool Balance over the Required Reserve;

(ii) the Undrawn LC Amount would exceed the LC Bank’s Commitment; or

(iii) an Investment Excess would exist.

The Commitment of each Purchaser and the LC Bank to Seller under this Agreement shall terminate on the Facility Termination Date.

(b) Effective on the date of each Incremental Purchase and Reinvestment hereunder (including any deemed purchased of a Receivable Interest made by the LC Bank pursuant to Section 1.9(b)), the Seller hereby sells and assigns to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers and the LC Bank (ratably, based on their respective Capital) an undivided percentage interest in (i) each Receivable then existing, (ii) all Related Security with respect to each such Receivable, and (iii) all Collections with respect to, and other proceeds of, each such Receivable.

(c) Seller may, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Agent and each Purchaser, terminate in whole or reduce in part, ratably amongst the Purchasers in accordance with their respective Percentages, the unused portion of the Purchase Limit; provided that each partial reduction of the Purchase Limit shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $500,000, and no such partial reduction shall reduce the Purchase Limit to an amount less than $30,000,000; and provided further that the LC Bank’s Commitment shall be automatically and simultaneously terminated in the case of any such termination and reduced by the amount of any such reduction of the Purchase Limit; and provided still further that (in addition to and without limiting any other requirements for termination, prepayment and/or the funding of the LC Collateral Account hereunder) no such termination or reduction shall be effective unless and until (i) in the case of a termination, the amount on deposit in the LC Collateral Account is at least equal to the then outstanding Undrawn LC Amount, (ii) in the case of a partial reduction, the amount on deposit in the LC Collateral Account is at least equal to the excess (if any) of the then outstanding Undrawn LC Amount and the Purchase Limit as so reduced thereby and (iii) in the case of a termination or a partial reduction, no Investment Excess exists after giving effect to such termination or reduction and any repayments of Capital and cancelation and surrender of Letters of Credit on the date thereof.

Section 1.2 Increases.

(a) If, on any Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date, there is Investment Availability reflected on a Daily Report or Monthly Report, as applicable, in each case for the preceding reporting period, as applicable, Seller (or Collection Agent, on Seller’s behalf) may, if desired, request an Incremental Purchase in accordance with this Section 1.2. Seller (or Collection Agent, on Seller’s behalf) shall provide the Agent with notice of each Incremental Purchase by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to such Incremental Purchase (or, solely in the case of an Incremental Purchase not exceeding $5,000,000, on the date of such Incremental Purchase) in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto (a “Purchase Notice”). Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price (which shall be at least $200,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000) and date of purchase (which shall be a Business Day). If any Purchase Notice is delivered later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to such proposed Incremental Purchase (or, solely in the case of an Incremental Purchase not exceeding $5,000,000, on the date of such Incremental Purchase), the Purchasers will make such Incremental Purchase on a best-efforts basis only. On the date of each Incremental Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, each Purchaser shall initiate a wire transfer to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), an amount equal to its Percentage of the Purchase Price of the Receivable Interest then being purchased.

The Seller may, subject to this clause (a) and the other requirements and conditions herein, use the proceeds of any Incremental Purchase to satisfy its Reimbursement Obligation to the LC Bank pursuant to Section 1.9.

(b) In the event the Seller fails to reimburse the LC Bank for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit on the applicable Drawing Date (out of its own funds available therefor, including as contemplated by the last paragraph of Section 1.2(a)) pursuant to Section 1.9, then the Seller shall, automatically (and without the requirement of any further action on the part of any Person hereunder), be deemed to have requested an Incremental Purchase from the Purchasers on such date in an amount equal to the amount of the related Reimbursement Obligation at such time. Subject to the limitations on funding set forth in the proviso to Section 1.1(a) above (and the other applicable requirements and conditions herein), the Purchasers shall fund such deemed purchase request and deliver the proceeds thereof directly to the Agent to be immediately distributed to the LC Bank in satisfaction of the Seller’s Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to Section 1.9 to the extent of the amounts permitted to be funded at such time by the Purchasers hereunder.

Section 1.3 Voluntary Decreases. Seller (or Collection Agent, on Seller’s behalf) shall provide each Purchaser with written notice no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) one Business Day prior to any proposed voluntary reduction of Aggregate Capital (each, a “Reduction Notice”). Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Capital shall occur, (ii) the amount of Aggregate Capital to be reduced (the “Aggregate Reduction”), (iii) each Purchaser’s Percentage of such Aggregate Reduction, which shall be applied ratably to the Receivable Interests of each Purchaser in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to such Purchaser. Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time.

Section 1.4 Payment Requirements.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) Each Seller Party shall initiate a wire transfer of amounts to be paid or deposited by it pursuant to any provision of this Agreement no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in immediately available funds to the applicable account specified by the Agent from time to time.

(c) All computations of Yield, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days (or, in the case of Yield accruing by reference to clause (a) or (b) of “Base Rate”, a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day. Any amounts received or deemed received by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.4 shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.4 or 2.5, as applicable, on the Business Day following the Business Day of such receipt or deemed receipt for all purposes under this Agreement (including, with out limitation, the computation of Yield, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter).

Section 1.5 Deemed Collections. Upon the occurrence of any Dilution, Seller shall be deemed to have received a Deemed Collection and such Deemed Collection shall be immediately applied to reduce the Net Pool Balance by the amount of such Deemed Collection. To the extent the effect of such Deemed Collection on the Net Pool Balance shall cause an Investment Excess, the Seller shall forthwith deliver to the Collection Agent in immediately available funds an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the sum of all Deemed Collections deemed received by Seller and (ii) an amount necessary to eliminate such Investment Excess and Collection Agent shall remit the same to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.

Section 1.6 Letters of Credit. On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof (including, without limitation, the issuance conditions set forth in Section 1.1(a)), the LC Bank shall issue or cause the issuance of Letters of Credit (“Letters of Credit”) on behalf of Seller (or, if requested by the Seller, on behalf of an Originator or other Affiliate of each Ferro Party) in favor of the beneficiaries specified by the Seller. All amounts drawn upon Letters of Credit shall accrue Yield for each day such drawn amounts shall have not been reimbursed.

Section 1.7 Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) The Seller may request the LC Bank, upon two Business Days’ prior written notice submitted on or before noon, New York time, to issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Agent, the LC Bank’s form of Letter of Credit Application (the “Letter of Credit Application”), substantially in the form of Exhibit XI attached hereto and a Purchase Notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit II hereto, in each case completed to the satisfaction of the Agent and the LC Bank; and, such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Agent may reasonably request.

(b) Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide for the payment of sight drafts or other written demands for payment when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance, extension or renewal, as the case may be, and in no event later than twelve (12) months after the Facility Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Letter of Credit may be extended or renewed to a date that is later than twelve (12) months after the Facility Termination Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, and any amendments or revisions thereof adhered to by the LC Bank or the International Standby Practices (ISP98-International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590), and any amendments or revisions thereof adhered to by the LC Bank, as determined by the LC Bank.

(c) The Agent shall promptly notify the LC Bank, at such Person’s address for notices hereunder, of the request by the Seller for a Letter of Credit hereunder, and shall provide the LC Bank with the Letter of Credit Application and Purchase Notice delivered to the Agent by the Seller pursuant to clause (a) above, by the close of business on the day received or if received on a day that is not a Business Day or on any Business Day after noon, New York time, on such day, on the next Business Day.

Section 1.8 Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Seller shall authorize and direct the LC Bank to name the Seller, the Originator or an Affiliate of each Ferro Party as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit.

Section 1.9 Disbursements, Reimbursement.

(a) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the LC Bank will promptly notify the Agent and the Seller of such request. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Seller shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the LC Bank shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the LC Bank prior to noon, New York time, on each date that an amount is paid by the LC Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the LC Bank. Any notice given by the LC Bank pursuant to this Section may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate written confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such oral notice.

(b) In the event that the Seller (for any reason, including because the conditions precedent to an Incremental Purchase deemed requested pursuant to Section 1.2(b) are not satisfied) fails to timely perform its Reimbursement Obligation with respect to any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the LC Bank shall be deemed to have purchased a Receivable Interest and to hold Capital in the amount of such drawing for all purposes hereunder, which Capital shall accrue Yield in accordance with the terms hereof and shall be immediately due and payable by the Seller. The LC Bank shall have all the rights (but none of the Commitments) of the Purchasers hereunder with respect to any such Capital.

Section 1.10 Documentation. The Seller agrees to be bound by, and to cause any other Person on whose behalf a Letter of Credit is issued hereunder (including any “Account Party” or “Applicant” thereof) to comply with, and be bound by, the terms of the Letter of Credit Application and by the LC Bank’s interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued for the Seller and by the LC Bank’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though the LC Bank’s interpretation of such regulations and practices may be different from the Seller’s own. In the event of a conflict between the Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Bank, the LC Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following the Seller’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.

Section 1.11 Determination to Honor Drawing Request. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the LC Bank shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit and that any other drawing condition appearing on the face of such Letter of Credit has been satisfied in the manner so set forth.

Section 1.12 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The obligations of the Seller to reimburse the LC Bank upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Article I under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(ii) the failure of the Seller or any other Person to comply with the conditions set forth in this Agreement for the making of a purchase, reinvestments, requests for Letters of Credit or otherwise;

(iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which Seller or an Originator on behalf of which a Letter of Credit has been issued may have against the LC Bank, the Agent, any Purchaser or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;

(iv) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by the Seller or the LC Bank against the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Seller or the LC Bank may have at any time against a beneficiary, any successor beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the LC Bank, the Agent, any Purchaser or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between the Seller or any Affiliates of the Seller and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of, or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of, any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit, or any such draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid, defective or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, even if the LC Bank, the Agent or any Purchaser has been notified thereof;

(vi) payment by the LC Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the LC Bank;

(vii) the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit;

(viii) any failure by the LC Bank or any of the LC Bank’s Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by the Seller, unless the LC Bank has received written notice from the Seller of such failure within three Business Days after the LC Bank shall have furnished the Seller a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;

(ix) any Material Adverse Effect;

(x) any breach of this Agreement or any Transaction Document by any party hereto or thereto;

(xi) the occurrence or continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Seller, the Collection Agent, any Originator or any Affiliate thereof;

(xii) the fact that an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing;

(xiii) the fact that this Agreement or the obligations of the Seller or the Collection Agent hereunder shall have been terminated; and

(xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Section 1.13 Indemnity. In addition to other amounts payable hereunder, the Seller hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Agent, the LC Bank and any of the LC Bank’s Affiliates that have issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, expenses and disbursements) which the Agent, the LC Bank or any of their respective Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, except to the extent resulting from (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (b) the wrongful dishonor by the LC Bank of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

Section 1.14 Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between the Seller, on the one hand, and the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers, on the other, the Seller assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by, any beneficiary, “Applicant” or “Account Party” of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Agent, the LC Bank or the Purchasers shall be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Agent, the LC Bank or the Purchasers shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Seller against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among the Seller and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, electronic mail, cable, telegraph, telex, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent, the LC Bank or the Purchasers, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Agent’s, the LC Bank’s or any Purchaser’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the LC Bank from liability for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment (or a judgment that is not promptly appealed) of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Agent, the LC Bank, the Purchasers or their respective Affiliates, be liable to the Seller or any other Person for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent, the LC Bank, each Purchaser and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any written communication believed in good faith by such Person to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the LC Bank or its Affiliates; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Agent, the LC Bank, or the Purchasers or their respective Affiliates, in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and may honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the LC Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith and without gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, shall not put the LC Bank under any resulting liability to the Seller or any other Person

In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, Seller will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Lock-Box Bank and deposited into a Lock-Box Account promptly (but not later than two (2) Business Days) following receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, Seller will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers.

Except as may be required by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b), such Seller Party will not add or terminate any bank as a Lock-Box Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to any Lock-Box or Lock-Box Account, unless the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers shall have received, at least ten (10) days before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Lock-Box Bank or a Lock-Box Account or Lock-Box, an executed Lock-Box Agreement with respect to the new Lock-Box Account or Lock-Box; provided, however, that the Collection Agent may make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to another existing Lock-Box Account.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy.

(a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the “Collection Agent”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 8.1. Ferro is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Collection Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers may at any time designate as Collection Agent any Person to succeed Ferro or any successor Collection Agent.

(b) Ferro may delegate to the other Originators, as sub-Collection Agents of the Collection Agent, certain of its duties and responsibilities as Collection Agent hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such Originators. Without the prior written consent of the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers, the Collection Agent shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Collection Agent to any Person other than (i) the other Originators, and (ii) with respect to certain Charged-Off Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Seller shall not be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of Collection Agent delegated to it by Ferro. If at any time following the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Agent shall designate as Collection Agent any Person other than Ferro, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by Ferro to Seller or any Originator may, at the discretion of the Agent, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Agent to Ferro and the Seller or such Originator, as applicable.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) Collection Agent shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Collection Agent hereunder and (ii) the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Collection Agent in matters relating to the discharge by the Collection Agent of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Collection Agent in order for communication to the Collection Agent and its sub-Collection Agent or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. Collection Agent, at all times that it is the Collection Agent, shall be responsible for providing any sub-Collection Agent or other delegate of the Collection Agent with any notice given to the Collection Agent under this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Duties of Collection Agent.

(a) The Collection Agent shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

The Collection Agent shall effect a Lock-Box Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent with each Lock-Box Bank. In the case of any remittances received in any Lock-Box or Lock-Box Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of the Collection Agent, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Collection Agent shall promptly remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances.

(c) The Collection Agent shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Collection Agent shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Seller and the Purchasers their respective shares of the Collections (or such funds or other assets arising therefrom) in accordance with Article II. The Collection Agent shall segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Collection Agent or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. In the event that and on each Business Day for which the Agent has requested cash dominion pursuant to Section 2.1, the Collection Agent shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Agent all Collections of Receivables on the Business Day received by the Collection Agent, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(d) The Collection Agent may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Collection Agent determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable, Defaulted Receivable or Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent, the LC Bank or the Purchasers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the occurrence and during continuation of an Amortization Event, the Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Collection Agent to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) The Collection Agent shall hold in trust for Seller and the Agent (on behalf of the LC Bank and the Purchasers) all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Agent, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Agent. The Collection Agent shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Seller any cash collections or other cash proceeds payable to Seller not constituting Collections on Receivables. The Collection Agent shall, from time to time at the request of any Purchaser, furnish to the Purchasers (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Purchasers pursuant to Article II.

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to an Originator or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by Contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

Section 8.3 Lock-Box Accounts. Seller hereby transfers to the Agent for the benefit of the LC Bank and the Purchasers the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-Box and Lock-Box Account; provided, that the Agent will not exercise its right under any Lock-Box Agreement to obtain exclusive control of any related Lock-Box or Lock-Box Account until the occurrence of an Amortization Event or during the continuance of a Potential Amortization Event. Seller hereby authorizes the Agent, and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled after the occurrence of an Amortization Event to (a) endorse Seller’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (b) enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security and (c) take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Agent rather than Seller.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Seller. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers of their rights hereunder shall not release the Collection Agent, any Originator or Seller from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. None of the Agent, the LC Bank or any Purchaser shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Seller.

Section 8.5 Reports.

(a) Following the occurrence of an Amortization Event or during the continuance of a Potential Amortization Event, at such times as the Agent may request in its commercially reasonable discretion (other than a Permitted Ferro Holiday), the Collection Agent shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers a Daily Report for the immediately preceding Business Day in the form of Exhibit X hereto (appropriately completed and executed), provided that the Agent shall request such Daily Reports at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of delivery.

(b) On each Monthly Reporting Date, the Collection Agent shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers, a Monthly Report for the calendar month then most recently ended in the form of Exhibit IX hereto (appropriately completed and executed).

(c) At such times as the Agent or any Purchaser shall reasonably request, the Collection Agent shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables.

(d) At the request of Agent or at anytime the Collection Agent (or the Seller) becomes aware or has reason to believe that the information contained in any Daily Report or Monthly Report is inaccurate in any material respect with respect to the inclusion of Receivables in the Net Pool Balance reflected in any such report which are not or no longer Eligible Receivables (each case, an “Interim Report Event”), the Collection Agent shall promptly (but in any event no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day after the occurrence of any Interim Report Event) provide an updated interim report substantially in the form of the Monthly Report but dated on or about the date of the occurrence of such Interim Report Event which updates the information normally contained in the Monthly Report (including without limitation, updated computations of Eligible Receivables included in the Net Pool Balance (an “Interim Report”). The information contained in any such Interim Report will be utilized by the Collection Agent and the Seller in the preparation of all Daily Reports, if applicable, issued on or after the date of such Interim Report until delivery of the next Monthly Report or Interim Report.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fees. In consideration of Ferro’s agreement to act as Collection Agent hereunder, the Agent, the LC Bank and the Purchasers hereby agree that, so long as Ferro shall continue to perform as Collection Agent hereunder, Seller shall pay over to Ferro a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on the first calendar day of each month, in arrears for the immediately preceding month, equal to 0.50% per annum of the average aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Receivables during such period, as compensation for its servicing activities.

Without limiting any other rights that the Agent, the LC Bank, any Purchaser or any other Affected Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, Seller hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) the Agent, the LC Bank, each Purchaser and each other Affected Person and their respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, taxes, liabilities, costs, expenses and for all other amounts payable, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (which attorneys may be employees of such Indemnified Party) and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the acquisition, either directly or indirectly, by the Agent, the LC Bank or a Purchaser of an interest in the Receivables excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances:

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of Seller or limit the recourse of any Indemnified Party to Seller for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by Seller under the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, Seller shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to Seller) relating to or resulting from:

(i) any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party or any Originator (or any officers of any such Person) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report required to be delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

(vi) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of an Incremental Purchase, a Reinvestment or a Letter of Credit, the ownership of the Receivable Interests or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to any Seller Party or any Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(xii) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Receivable, the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and the proceeds of any thereof, whether at the time of any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment or at any subsequent time;

(xiii) any action or omission by any Seller Party which reduces or impairs the rights of the Agent, the LC Bank or the Purchasers with respect to any Receivable or the value of any such Receivable; and

(xiv) the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Net Pool Balance as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable at the time so included.

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of Collection Agent or limit the recourse of any Indemnified Party to Collection Agent for Collections received by the Collection Agent and required to be remitted by it under the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, Collection Agent shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Collection Agent Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to the Collection Agent) relating to or resulting from:

(i) any representation or warranty made by Collection Agent (or any officers of Collection Agent) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

Section 10.3 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If after the date hereof, any Affected Person shall be charged any fee, expense or increased cost on account of the adoption of, or compliance with, any Specified Law, any applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy), any accounting principles or any change in any of the foregoing, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority: (i) that subjects such Affected Person to any charge or withholding on or with respect to this Agreement or such Affected Person’s obligations hereunder, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Affected Person of any amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Affected Person or taxes excluded by Section 10.1) or (ii) that imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of such Affected Person, or credit extended by such Affected Person pursuant to this Agreement or (iii) that imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to such Affected Person of performing its obligations hereunder, or to reduce the rate of return on such Affected Person’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Person under this Agreement or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by such Affected Person, Seller shall pay to such Affected Person, such amounts charged to such Affected Person or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Affected Person for such increased cost or such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Affected Person that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, shall be entitled to reimbursement or compensation hereunder unless and until it has delivered to the Seller two (2) duly completed and signed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as applicable, certifying in either case that such Affected Person is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes.

Neither the Agent nor the LC Bank nor any Purchaser, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any party to this Agreement with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Seller Parties which may come into the possession of such Person or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 11.7 Indemnification of Agent.

In addition, such listing shall impose no duties on the Agent other than those expressly and specifically undertaken in accordance with this Article XI.

Each Purchaser agrees that any agreement between such Purchaser and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Purchaser’s right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described in Section 14.1(b)(i).
