MASTER TRUST RECEIVABLES TRANSFER AGREEMENT, dated as of August 12, 2020 (this “Agreement”), among VERIZON DPPA MASTER TRUST, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Master
Trust”), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP d/b/a VERIZON WIRELESS, a Delaware general partnership (“Cellco”) and VERIZON ABS LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as depositor (the “Depositor”).
BACKGROUND
In the normal course of its business, the Master Trust acquires from certain originators device payment plan agreements under contracts entered into by such
originators or Verizon Wireless Services, LLC or another affiliate of such originators, as agent of each originator.
In connection with a securitization transaction sponsored by Cellco in which Verizon Owner Trust 2020-B, as issuer (the “Issuer”) will issue Notes secured by a
pool of Receivables consisting of device payment plan agreements, the Master Trust has determined to transfer a pool of Receivables and related property on the Closing Date and additional pools of Receivables and related property from time to time to
the Depositor, who will subsequently transfer them to the Issuer.
The parties agree as follows:

Trust transfers and absolutely assigns to the Depositor, without recourse (other than the obligations of the Servicer with respect to such Receivables under this Agreement), all of the Master Trust’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or
later acquired, in the Initial Receivables acquired by it from time to time from various Originators and the other related Master Trust Transferred Property. The Initial Receivables transferred by the Master Trust will be set forth in the

transferred and assigned by the Master Trust and acquired by the Depositor (and subsequently the Issuer) on each Acquisition Date, which Receivables will be set forth in the electronic file containing the Schedule of Receivables delivered on the
date of the Transfer Notice for such Acquisition Date.
(c) No Assumption of Obligations. These transfers and absolute assignments do not, and are not intended to, include any obligation of the Master Trust, the Servicer or any Originator to the Obligors or any other Person
relating to the Receivables and the other Master Trust Transferred Property, and the Depositor does not assume any of these obligations.
(d) Conditions for Transfers of Additional Receivables. The transfers and absolute assignments of the Additional Receivables and the other related Master Trust Transferred Property on each Acquisition Date will be subject to
the satisfaction of the following conditions on or before such Acquisition Date:
(i) Transfer Notice. At least two (2) Business Days before each Acquisition Date, the Administrator shall deliver to the Depositor, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee a Transfer Notice for the
Additional Receivables to be transferred and absolutely assigned on that Acquisition Date, which will specify the Additional Receivables Transfer Amount, and will have delivered with it an electronic file containing the Schedule of Receivables; and
(ii) Master Trust’s Certifications. The Master Trust, on such Acquisition Date, certifies that:
(A) |
as of such Acquisition Date, (1) the Master Trust is Solvent and will not become insolvent as a result of the absolute assignment of the related Additional Receivables on the Acquisition Date, (2)
the Master Trust does not intend to incur or believe that it would incur debts that would be beyond the Master Trust’s ability to pay as the debts matured and (3) the absolute assignment of the related Additional Receivables is not made by
the Master Trust with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud any Person;
|
(B) |
the Master Trust’s representations and warranties in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 (solely with respect to the related Additional Receivables transferred on such Acquisition Date) will be true and correct as
of the Acquisition Date; and
|
2
(C) |
the Master Trust has complied, or has caused the Master Trust Administrator to comply, with the requirements of Section 9.7(a) of the Master Collateral Agency Agreement with respect to the release of
Receivables from the lien of the Master Collateral Agency Agreement.
|
(iii) Servicer Certifications. The Servicer, on such Acquisition Date, certifies that each of the Servicer’s representations and warranties in Sections 3.3, solely with respect to the related Additional
Receivables, and 3.6 will be true and correct as of such Acquisition Date.
The delivery by the Administrator, on behalf of the Master Trust, of the Transfer Notice will be considered a certification by the Master Trust and the Servicer that
the conditions set forth in this Section 2.1(d) have been satisfied or will be satisfied on the Acquisition Date.
Section 2.2. Acquisition of Receivables.
(a) Acquisition of Initial Receivables. In consideration for the Initial Receivables and the other related Master Trust Transferred Property, the Depositor will distribute to the Master Trust $1,552,721,044.59 in the
aggregate on the Closing Date, and will transfer a portion of the Class A Certificate to the Master Trust, in proportion to the Initial Receivables transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor. The Master Trust hereby directs the Depositor to
issue the portion of the Class A Certificate referenced in the immediately preceding sentence in the name of the True Up Trust, as a distribution from the Master Trust to the True Up Trust, as the sole equityholder of the Master Trust. The
Depositor, on the one hand, and the Master Trust, on the other hand, represents and warrants to the other that the amount distributed by the Depositor to the Master Trust on the Closing Date, together with the portion of the Class A Certificate
allocated to the Master Trust, is equal to the fair market value of the Initial Receivables and the other related Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor on the Closing Date.
(b) Acquisition of Additional Receivables. In consideration for the Additional Receivables and the other related Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust, the Depositor will (i) distribute to the
Master Trust the Additional Receivables Cash Transfer Amount for such Additional Receivables on the related Acquisition Date, and (ii) make a distribution to, or at the written direction of, the Master Trust in an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the Additional Receivables Transfer Amount over the Additional Receivables Cash Transfer Amount for such Additional Receivables, in the form of an increase in the beneficial interest in the Issuer, as evidenced by the portion of the Class A
Certificate allocated to the Master Trust, in proportion to the Additional Receivables transferred by the Master Trust on such Acquisition Date. The Master Trust, on the one hand, and the Depositor, on the other hand, represents and warrants to
the other that the aggregate amount set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence distributed by the Depositor to the Master Trust on such Acquisition Date will equal the fair market value of the Additional Receivables and
the other related Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor on such Acquisition Date.
Section 2.3. Acknowledgement of Further
Assignments. The Master Trust acknowledges that (a) under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will transfer
3
and assign all of its right, title and interest in the Master Trust Transferred Property and related property and rights to the Issuer and (b) under the Indenture, the Issuer will assign
and pledge the Master Trust Transferred Property and related property and rights to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
Section 2.4. Savings Clause. The Master Trust
and the Depositor intend that each assignment under this Agreement be an absolute assignment of the Master Trust Transferred Property, conveying good title to the Master Trust Transferred Property free and clear of any Lien, other than Permitted
Liens, from the Master Trust to the Depositor. The Master Trust and the Depositor intend that the Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust not be a part of the Master Trust’s estate if there is a bankruptcy or insolvency
of the Master Trust. If, despite the intent of the Master Trust and the Depositor, a transfer of the Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust under this Agreement is determined to be a pledge for a financing or is
determined not to be an absolute assignment, the Master Trust Grants to the Depositor a security interest in the Master Trust’s right, title and interest in the Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by it to secure a loan in an amount equal
to all amounts payable by the Master Trust under this Agreement, all amounts payable as principal of or interest on the Notes, all amounts payable as Servicing Fees under the Transfer and Servicing Agreement and all other amounts payable by the
Issuer under the Transaction Documents. In that case, this Agreement will be a security agreement under Law and the Depositor will have the rights and remedies of a secured party and creditor under the UCC.

Each Receivable. With respect to the Receivables transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor under this Agreement, the Servicer represents and warrants that each Receivable transferred and absolutely assigned by the Master Trust to the
Depositor under this Agreement is an Eligible Receivable (the “Eligibility Representation”). Such representation and warranty is made as of the Closing Date (for the Initial Receivables) and each Acquisition Date (for the related Additional
Receivables) or other dates stated and will survive the transfer and absolute assignment of the Receivables transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor under this Agreement and by the Depositor to the Issuer under the Transfer and Servicing
Agreement and the pledge of such Receivables by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. Any inaccuracy in the Eligibility Representation will be deemed not to constitute a breach of the Eligibility Representation if such
inaccuracy does not affect the ability of the Issuer to receive and retain payment in full on such Receivable on the terms and conditions and within the timeframe set forth in the underlying device payment plan agreement. A Receivable will be an
Eligible Receivable if:
(a) as of the related Cutoff Date, the Obligor on the account for such Receivable had a billing address in the United States or in a territory of the United States;
(b) as of the related Cutoff Date, the remaining term of the Receivable is less than or equal to 24 months;

(f) under the Receivable, there is no prepayment penalty;
7
(g) as of the related Cutoff Date, as indicated on the records of the Servicer or one of its Affiliates, the Receivable is not associated with the account of a business customer or government customer;
(h) as of the related Cutoff Date, the Obligor on the account for such Receivable is not indicated to be subject to a current bankruptcy proceeding on the records of the Servicer or one of its Affiliates, acting as its agent;
(i) as of the related Cutoff Date, the Receivable is not a Receivable that is part of an account (A) on which any amount is thirty-one (31) days or more Delinquent by the Obligor or (B) that is in “suspend” or “disconnect” status
(including as a result of the application of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, as amended) in accordance with the Servicing Procedures;
(j) the Receivable is denominated and payable only in U.S. dollars;
(k) the Obligor under such Receivable is required to make payments no less frequently than monthly under the related device payment plan agreement;
(l) as of the related Cutoff Date, the outstanding balance of the Receivable does not exceed $2,500;
(m) as of the related Cutoff Date, either (i) at least one (1) monthly payment made by the Obligor under the related device payment plan agreement has been received with respect to the related Receivable or (ii) the related Obligor
has at least one (1) year of Customer Tenure with Verizon Wireless;
(n) the Receivable was originated in, and is subject to the Laws of, a jurisdiction which permits the transfer and assignment of the Receivable, and the terms of the Receivable do not contain a requirement that the related Obligor
consent to the transfer or assignment of the rights to payment of the related Originator under such Receivable;
(o) at the time of origination, the Receivable complied in all material respects with any requirements of Law applicable thereto;
(p) the Receivable constitutes the legal and binding obligation of the related Obligor enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms (except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or similar Laws relating to and limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or in law)); and
(q) as of the related Cutoff Date, neither the Servicer’s receivables systems nor the Receivable File indicates that the Receivable was satisfied or rescinded.
Section 3.4. Servicer Acquisition of Receivables
for Breach of Representations.
(a) Investigation of Breach. If a Responsible Person of the Servicer receives written notice from the Depositor, the Administrator or the Indenture Trustee that the Eligibility Representation was breached when made, then, in
each case, the Servicer (or if Cellco is no longer
8
the Servicer, then Cellco in its individual capacity) will investigate the Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach has a material adverse effect on the Issuer. The
Servicer (or if Cellco is no longer the Servicer, then Cellco in its individual capacity) will have the option to cure such breach. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation to give the notice set forth in the first
sentence of this Section unless a Responsible Person of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge of such breach or has received written notice identifying the specific Receivable or Receivables for which the Eligibility Representation was
breached. None of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee (including in its capacity as Successor Servicer), the Parent Support Provider, the Marketing Agent or the Administrator will have an obligation to investigate whether a
breach of the Eligibility Representation has occurred or whether any Receivable is required to be acquired under this Section 3.4. In addition, with respect to 60-Day Delinquent Receivables subject to an Asset Representations Review, the Servicer
will have the sole ability to determine if there was non-compliance with the Eligibility Representation made by it with respect to those 60-Day Delinquent Receivables that constitutes a breach, and whether to reacquire or acquire, as applicable,
those Receivables from the Issuer.
(b) Acquisition of Receivables; Payment of Acquisition Amount. If the Servicer chooses to cure a breach of the Eligibility Representation that has a material adverse effect on the Issuer, such breach must be cured by the
Servicer by the end of the second month following the month the Responsible Person of the Servicer received written notice of the breach as set forth above. If such breach (i) is not cured and (ii) had a material adverse effect on the Issuer, then
the Servicer must acquire any such Receivable transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor for which the Eligibility Representation was breached. The Servicer will acquire the Receivables transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor as
described in the immediately preceding sentence by remitting the Acquisition Amount for the related Receivables on or before the Business Day before the Payment Date following the end of the second month referenced in the first sentence hereof (or,
with satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, on such Payment Date).
(c) Transfer and Assignment of Acquired Receivable. When the Servicer’s payment of the Acquisition Amount for the applicable Receivables becomes included in Available Funds for a Payment Date, the Issuer will be deemed to
have transferred and absolutely assigned to the Servicer, effective as of the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in such Receivables and all security and documents
relating to such Receivables. The transfer and absolute assignment will not require any action by the Depositor, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee and will be without recourse, representation or warranty by the Depositor or the Issuer, except
that such Receivables are free of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens. After the transfer and absolute assignment, the Servicer will xxxx its receivables systems to indicate that the receivables are no longer Receivables and may take any action
necessary or advisable to transfer and absolutely assign the Acquired Receivables, free from any Lien of the Depositor, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.
(d) Acquisition Sole Remedy. The sole remedy against the Servicer for a breach of an Eligibility Representation is to require the Servicer to acquire the related Receivables under this Section 3.4. The Depositor will
enforce the Servicer’s acquisition obligation under this Section 3.4. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 3.4(d) shall limit any remedy of the Issuer against the Parent Support Provider contained in the Parent Support
Agreement.
9
(e) Removal or Resignation of Cellco as Servicer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, immediately upon the resignation or removal of Cellco as Servicer pursuant to
Sections 7.1 or 7.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement, Cellco, in its individual capacity, will be required to assume the obligation to acquire Receivables as set forth in this Section 3.4 without further action.
(f) Dispute Resolution. The Servicer and the Master Trust agree to be bound by the dispute resolution provisions in Section 11.2 of the Transfer and Servicing Agreement as if they were part of this Agreement.
Section 3.5. Depositor’s Representations and
Warranties. The Depositor represents and warrants to the Master Trust and the Servicer as of the Closing Date and each Acquisition Date:
(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Depositor is a validly existing limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has full power and authority to own its properties and conduct its
business as presently owned or conducted, and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party.
(b) Due Qualification. The Depositor is duly qualified to do business, is in good standing as a foreign limited liability company (or is exempt from such requirements) and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in
each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification, licenses or approvals, except where the failure to so qualify or obtain licenses or approvals would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(c) Due Authorization. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, have been duly authorized by the Depositor by all necessary limited liability
company action on the part of the Depositor.
(d) No Proceedings. There are no actions, suits, investigations or other proceedings pending, or to its knowledge threatened, against the Depositor or any of its properties: (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or

immediate ownership or any decision to appoint a new trustee of the Master Trust.
(d) Change of the Master Trust’s Name. The Master Trust will notify the Depositor at least ten (10) days before any change in its name that could make a financing statement filed under this Section 4.1 seriously misleading
under Section 9-506 of the UCC. If required, the Master Trust will promptly file, or will cause to be filed, amendments to all previously filed financing statements.
Section 4.2. No Transfer or Lien by the Master
Trust. Except for the transfer and absolute assignment under this Agreement, the Master Trust will not transfer or absolutely assign any Master Trust Transferred Property transferred and absolutely assigned by it under this Agreement to
another Person or Grant or allow a Lien, other than a Permitted Lien, on an interest in any such Master Trust Transferred Property. The Master Trust will defend the Depositor’s interest in the Master Trust Transferred Property transferred and
absolutely assigned by it to the Depositor against claims of third parties claiming through the Master Trust.
Section 4.3. Expenses. The Master Trust will
pay all expenses to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Depositor’s reasonable expenses to perfect the Depositor’s interest in the Master Trust Transferred Property transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor and to enforce
the Master Trust’s obligations under this Agreement.
Section 4.4. Master Trust Records. The Master
Trust will xxxx its records to indicate that any Receivable absolutely assigned by it to the Depositor is owned by the Depositor or its assignee on the related Acquisition Date and will not change the indication until the Receivable has been paid
in full by the Obligor, acquired by the Servicer or the Marketing Agent or sold to a third party, as applicable, under a Transaction Document.
Section 4.5. Review of Master Trust’s Records.
The Master Trust will maintain records and documents relating to its performance under this Agreement according to its customary business practices. Upon reasonable request not more than once during any calendar year, and with reasonable notice,
the Master Trust will give the Depositor (or its representatives) access to
13
the records and documents to conduct a review of the Master Trust. Any access or review will be conducted at the Master Trust’s offices during its normal business hours at a time
reasonably convenient to the Master Trust and in a manner that will minimize disruption to its business operations. Any access or review will be subject to the Master Trust’s security, confidentiality and privacy policies and any legal, regulatory
and data protection policies.

regulatory, legal or data protection policies.
Section 4.7. Acquisition of Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables.
(a) Acquisition
of Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables; Payment of Acquisition Amount. If a Receivable becomes a Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivable, the Servicer (or if Cellco is no longer the Servicer, then Cellco in its individual capacity) must acquire any
such Receivable from the Issuer, subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.7(a). The Servicer will acquire any Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables by remitting the Acquisition Amount for the related Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables on or
prior to the second Business Day before the Payment Date related to the Collection Period during which the Receivable became a Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivable. The aggregate Principal Balance of all Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables acquired by
the Servicer, in the aggregate, will not exceed five percent (5%) of the aggregate Principal Balance of all Receivables (calculated as of the Initial Cutoff Date) transferred by the Master Trust to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer
on the Closing Date, and the Servicer shall not be required to acquire any Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables in excess of such limit.
(b) Transfer
and Assignment of Acquired Receivables. When a Servicer’s payment of the Acquisition Amount for the Master Trust’s Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables becomes included in Available Funds for a Payment Date, the Issuer will be deemed to have
transferred and absolutely assigned to the Servicer, effective as of the last day of the Collection Period before the related Collection Period, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in such Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables and all
security and documents relating to such Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables. The transfer and absolute assignment will not require any action by the Depositor, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee and will be without recourse, representation or
warranty by the Depositor or the Issuer, except that such Bankruptcy Surrendered Receivables are free of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens. After the transfer and absolute assignment, the Servicer will xxxx its receivables systems to indicate
that the receivables are no longer Receivables and may take any action necessary or advisable to transfer and absolutely assign the Acquired Receivables, free from any Lien of the Depositor, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.
14
(c) Enforcement
of Obligation. The Depositor will enforce the Servicer’s (or if Cellco is no longer the Servicer, then Cellco’s, in its individual capacity) acquisition obligation under this Section 4.7.
