AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE, SELL AND CONTRIBUTE
AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE, SELL AND CONTRIBUTE
SECTION 2.1 Purchase, Sale and Contribution. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Originator hereby sells or contributes, as applicable, to Buyer, and Buyer hereby purchases or acquires from the Originator, as applicable, all of the Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables and the Related Assets, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, acquired, or originated.
SECTION 2.2 Timing of Purchases. All of the Receivables existing at the opening of the Originator’s business on the Closing Date are hereby sold or contributed, as applicable, to Buyer on such date in accordance with the terms hereof. All of the Receivables originated by the Originator on any date after the Closing Date until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date shall be sold or contributed, as applicable, to Buyer on such date in accordance with the terms hereof.
2
Buyer shall pay to the Originator on the date of such sale the applicable cash Purchase Price for the Receivables sold to Buyer in immediately available funds; provided, however, to the extent that Buyer does not have funds available to pay the Purchase Price due on the sale date in cash (such cash insufficiency being a “Deferred Payment”), such Deferred Payment shall be deemed to have been funded by the Originator through either (i) an advance under the Subordinated Note, subject to the limitation in Section 2.3(e) below or (ii) as a capital contribution, subject to the limitations in Section 2.3(d) below. On and after the Closing Date until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date, each Receivable shall be deemed to have been sold or contributed to Buyer immediately (and without further action by any Person) upon the creation or acquisition of such Receivable by the Originator or on the Closing Date in the case of the sale or contribution on such date. The Related Assets with respect to each Receivable shall be sold or contributed at the same time as such Receivable, whether such Related Assets exist at such time or arise, are acquired or are originated thereafter.
Buyer has executed and delivered in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit 2.2, a subordinated promissory note (the “Subordinated Note”) to the Originator. Effective as of the Amendment Date and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, a portion of the Originator’s capital in Buyer is being converted to Debt by way of increasing the outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Note. On the Amendment Date and after giving effect to the Exchange Agreement, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Note will be $75,000,000.
SECTION 2.3 Purchase Price. (a) The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Receivables and the Related Assets shall equal the fair market value of the Receivables and the Related Assets (taking into account a discount for the time value of money, historic and expected losses and the Originator’s obligations pursuant to Section 3.2) as agreed by the Originator and Buyer at the time of purchase or acquisition.
(b) On the Closing Date, the Originator shall contribute Receivables and the Related Assets to Buyer as a capital contribution in the amount set forth in a written notice on the date thereof from the Originator to Buyer and Administrative Agent.
(c) On each date of sale or contribution, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer shall pay to the Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables and the Related Assets generated on such day by transfer of funds, to the extent that Buyer has funds available for that purpose after satisfying Buyer’s obligations under the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
(d) To the extent Buyer does not have funds available to pay the Purchase Price due on any day in cash, Buyer may, in its sole discretion, increase the principal amount of the Subordinated Note payable to the Originator by an amount up to the lesser of (x) the principal amount of such Deferred Payment and (y) the maximum amount that could be added to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note at such time without rendering Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount. The Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to note in its records the date and amount of each advance under its Subordinated Note, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to update such records shall not affect any obligation of Buyer thereunder.
3
(e) To the extent any portion of the Purchase Price due on any day remains unpaid after giving effect to the above, the Originator shall treat the related Receivables and Related Assets allocable to such portion of the remaining Deferred Payment to have been transferred by the Originator to Buyer as a capital contribution, in return for an increase in the value of the equity interest in Buyer held by the Originator.
(f) In addition to contributions of Receivables and Related Assets by the Originator to Buyer hereunder, the Originator may also, at its option in its sole discretion, contribute cash to Buyer in return for an increase in the value of the equity interest in Buyer held by the Originator. Servicer shall evidence the Originator’s election to treat all or any portion of the Receivables and Related Assets as a capital contribution by recording it as such on the books and records of Buyer as maintained by the Servicer, and no further notice or acceptance of any such contribution shall be necessary. The Originator, Servicer and Buyer shall each record on its respective books and records any capital contribution made by the Originator to Buyer promptly following its occurrence.
SECTION 2.4 No Recourse or Assumption of Obligations. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale or contribution, as applicable, of Receivables and Related Assets under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Originator. The Originator and Buyer intend the transactions hereunder to constitute absolute and irrevocable true sales or valid contributions of Receivables and the Related Assets by the Originator to Buyer, providing Buyer with the full risks and benefits of ownership of the Receivables and Related Assets (such that the Receivables and the Related Assets (other than those repurchased by the Originator pursuant to the terms hereof) would not be property of the Originator’s estate in the event of the Originator’s bankruptcy).
None of Buyer, Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Parties or the other Affected Persons shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivables or Related Assets, nor shall Buyer, Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Party or the other Affected Persons have any obligation or liability to any Obligor or other customer or client of the Originator (including any obligation to perform any of the obligations of the Originator under any Receivables or Related Assets) or to Servicer.
SECTION 2.5 Purchase Report. On each date when an Information Package is due to be delivered under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Originator a report in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.5 (each such report being herein called a “Purchase Report”) setting forth, among other things:
(a) the aggregate initial Unpaid Balance of all Receivables which were sold or contributed by the Originator to the Buyer during the most recently ended Settlement Period;
(b) the aggregate Purchase Price for all Receivables which were sold or contributed by the Originator to the Buyer during the most recently ended Settlement Period (such aggregate Purchase Price with respect to a Settlement Period, an “Aggregate Originator Purchase Price”);
4
(c) the portion, if any, of the Aggregate Originator Purchase Price for the most recently ended Settlement Period that was paid in cash during such Settlement Period;
(d) the portion, if any, of the Aggregate Originator Purchase Price for the most recently ended Settlement Period that was paid in the form of an increase in the principal amount of the Subordinated Note during such Settlement Period;
(e) the portion, if any, of the Aggregate Originator Purchase Price for the most recently ended Settlement Period that was paid in the form of a capital contribution by the Originator to Buyer during such Settlement Period;
(f) the Buyer’s Net Worth as of the Cut-Off Date of the most recently ended Settlement Period;
(g) the aggregate amount by which the principal balance of the Subordinated Note was repaid during the most recently ended Settlement Period; and
(h) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Note as of the Cut-Off Date of the most recently ended Settlement Period.
ARTICLE III

SECTION 3.1 Media LLC to Act as Servicer; Contracts. (a) Media LLC shall be responsible for the servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables and the Related Assets for the benefit of Buyer and for the benefit of Administrative Agent (as Buyer’s assignee) on behalf of the Purchaser Parties, all on the terms set out in (and subject to any rights to terminate Media LLC as Servicer and appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to) the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
(b) The Originator shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer and Servicer in collecting amounts due from Obligors in respect of the Receivables.

(d) The Originator hereby grants to Buyer and to Administrative Agent, as assignee of Buyer, an irrevocable power of attorney, with full power of substitution, coupled with an interest, to take or cause to be taken in the name of Buyer or the Originator, as the case may be, any and all steps which are necessary or advisable to endorse, negotiate, enforce, or otherwise realize on any checks, instruments or other proceeds of the
5
Receivables or other right of any kind held or transmitted by Buyer or the Originator or transmitted or received by Buyer (whether or not from the Originator) or the Originator in connection with any Receivable and any Related Assets (including under the related Records); provided, however, the rights granted in this Section 3.1(d) may only be exercised by the Administrative Agent during the continuance of a Purchase and Sale Termination Event or Event of Termination.
(e) The Originator shall perform all of its obligations under the Records to the same extent as if the Receivables had not been sold or contributed, as applicable, hereunder and the exercise by each of Buyer, Servicer, Administrative Agent or any of their respective designees of its rights hereunder or under the Receivables Purchase Agreement shall not relieve the Originator from such obligations.
SECTION 3.2 Deemed Collections. (a) If on any day:
(i) the Unpaid Balance of any Receivable originated by the Originator is: (A) reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo, discount or other adjustment made by the Originator or any Affiliate of the Originator, or any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between the Originator or any Affiliate of the Originator, and an Obligor, in each case other than with respect to the credit-worthiness of any related Obligor, (B) less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Information Package (for any reason other than such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable or due to the application of Collections received with respect to such Receivable), or (C) extended, amended or otherwise modified or waived or any payment term or condition of any related Contract is amended, modified or waived (except as expressly permitted under Section 9.02(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement); or
(ii) any of the representations or warranties of the Originator set forth in Section 4.2(a), (c), (k) or (q) were untrue when made with respect to any Receivable originated by the Originator or as a result of any action or inaction of the Originator (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor) are no longer true with respect to any Receivable originated by the Originator, in each case, as determined by the Administrative Agent and notified to the Originator;
then, on such day, the Originator shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable:
(1) in the case of clauses (i)(A) or (B) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Unpaid Balance (as determined immediately prior to the applicable event) and the amount included in respect of such Receivable in calculating such Net Pool Balance or, in the case of clause (i)(C) above, in the amount that such extension, amendment, modification or
6
waiver affects the Unpaid Balance of the related Receivable in the sole determination of Buyer or the Administrative Agent, as its assignee; or
(2) in the case of clause (ii) above, in the amount of the entire Unpaid Balance of the relevant Receivable (as determined immediately prior to the applicable event) with respect to which such representations or warranties of the Originator were or became untrue.
Collections deemed received by the Originator under this Section 3.2(a) are herein referred to as “Deemed Collections”.
(b) Not later than the second Business Day after the Originator is deemed to have received a Deemed Collection, it shall transfer to a Lock-Box Account immediately available funds in the amount of such Deemed Collections.
(c) If a Deemed Collection payment is made with respect to a Receivable in the amount of the Unpaid Balance thereof (as determined immediately prior to the applicable event), and the credit for such reduction has been applied pursuant to Section 3.2(b), Buyer shall automatically be deemed to have reconveyed such Receivable to the Originator, without representation or warranty, but free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges, and encumbrances created by Buyer.
SECTION 3.3 Actions Evidencing Purchases. (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Originator (or Servicer, on behalf of the Originator) shall xxxx its records evidencing Receivables and Contracts in a form acceptable to Buyer, evidencing that the Receivables originated by the Originator have been transferred in accordance with this Agreement, and none of the Originator or Servicer shall change or remove such xxxx without the consent of Buyer and the Administrative Agent, as its assignee. In addition, the Originator agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that Buyer or the Administrative Agent, as its assignee may request in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the purchases, sales and contributions hereunder, or to enable Buyer or the Administrative Agent, as its assignee to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights with respect to the Receivables and the Related Assets. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Originator will upon the request of Buyer or its designee: (i) authorize and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect the interests of Buyer and the Administrative Agent, as its assignee in the Receivables originated by the Originator and the Related Assets; and (ii) if an Event of Termination has occurred and is continuing, xxxx its master data processing records that evidence or list such Receivables and related Contracts with a legend, acceptable to Buyer and the Administrative Agent, as its assignee, evidencing that the related Receivables have been sold or contributed in accordance with this Agreement.
(b) The Originator hereby authorizes Buyer or its designee (i) to file in the name of the Originator one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto and assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Receivables originated by the Originator and the Related Assets now existing or hereafter arising and (ii) to the extent permitted by
7
the Receivables Purchase Agreement, to notify Obligors of the assignment of the Receivables originated by the Originator and the Related Assets.
(c) Without limiting the generality of Section 3.3(a), the Originator shall: authorize and deliver and file or cause to be filed appropriate continuation statements, not earlier than six months and not later than one month prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of filing of the financing statements filed in connection with the Closing Date or any other financing statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, if the Final Payout Date shall not have occurred.
SECTION 3.4 Application of Collections.

If the manner of application of any such payment is not specified by the related Obligor and is not required by Applicable Law or by the underlying Contract, such payment shall, unless Buyer instructs otherwise, be applied: first, as a Collection of any Receivable or Receivables then outstanding of such Obligor, with such Receivables being paid in the order of the oldest first, and, second, to any other indebtedness of such Obligor.

All payments and distributions received by Administrative Agent in respect of this Note, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first, to the payment of any and all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses) paid or incurred by Administrative Agent or the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon the Junior Liabilities, and second, any balance thereof shall, solely as between the Company and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Senior Interests in a manner determined by Administrative Agent to be in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
(d) Upon the payment in full and in cash of all Senior Interests (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations), the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Interest Holders to receive payments or distributions from Buyer that are applicable to the Senior Interests until this Note is paid in full and in cash.
(e) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Company, on the one hand, and the Senior Interest Holders, on the other hand.

(f) Company shall not, until the Senior Interests (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) have been paid in full and in cash: (i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of Buyer, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than the Senior Interests, this Note, or any rights in respect thereof or (ii) convert this Note into an equity interest in Buyer, unless, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, Company shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.
(g) Company shall not commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any proceedings related to an Event of Bankruptcy with respect to Buyer until at least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) shall have been paid in full and in cash.
(h) If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) made with respect to any Senior Interest is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior Interest Holder (whether in
Exhibit 2.2, Page 3
connection with any Event of Bankruptcy or otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made.
(i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, without notice or demand to Company, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property securing any of the Senior Interests pursuant to, and to the extent set forth in, the Transaction Documents; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Interests in accordance with the Transaction Documents; (iv) amend, supplement, or otherwise modify any Transaction Document in accordance with the terms thereof; and (v) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property.
(j) Company hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any security therefor.
(k) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from Buyer to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Interests; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and Administrative Agent may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.
8. Cumulative Remedies; Amendments, Etc. No failure or delay on the part of Company in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Note shall in any event be effective unless (a) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by Buyer and Company and acknowledged and agreed to by Administrative Agent, and (b) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.
9. Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, Buyer shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder, and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder, at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received without violating applicable federal or state law.
