INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in the ABL Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among HE AR BRWR LLC, as borrower, the several banks and other financial institutions from time to time parties thereto as Lenders, Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent, funding agent and collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (together with its successors and permitted assigns in such capacities, the “Administrative Agent”) and the other agents party thereto (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ABL Credit Agreement”).

Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 11.16.

All references herein to months are to calendar months unless otherwise expressly indicated. All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP. All terms used in Article 9 of the UCC in the State of New York, and not specifically defined herein, are used herein as defined in such Article 9. Unless the context otherwise requires, “or” means “and/or,” and “including” (and with correlative meaning “include” and “includes”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding such term.

BACKGROUND

1. The Buyer is a bankruptcy remote special purpose limited liability company that is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Company.

2. Each Originator is a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company. The Originators generate Receivables in the ordinary course of their businesses.

3. The Originators, in order to finance their respective businesses, wish to sell (and in the case of the Contributing Originator, sell or contribute, as applicable) Subject Receivables, the Related Rights and Related Security to the Buyer, and the Buyer is willing to purchase such Subject Receivables and the Related Rights and Related Security from the Originators, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

4. The Originators and the Buyer intend each such transaction to be a true sale and/or an absolute contribution and conveyance, as applicable, of the Subject Receivables and the Related Rights in respect of such Subject Receivables by each Originator to the Buyer, providing the Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of such Subject Receivables, and the Originators and the Buyer do not intend the transactions hereunder to be characterized as a loan from the Buyer to any Originator.

5. The Originators acknowledge that the Buyer intends to on-sell, and grant a security interest in, the Subject Receivables, Related Security and the Related Rights, including its right, title and interest in this Agreement to the Borrower under the ABL Credit Agreement and the Borrower, in turn, will grant a security interest in the Subject Receivables, the Related Security and Related Rights (including this agreement) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure its obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement.

US-DOCS\148030570.24

6. The Buyer acknowledges that a portion of the payments made by the various obligors under the Receivables (referred to herein as the “Account Debtors”) in connection with their payments of the Receivables consist of taxes and certain other Excluded Amounts (as defined below) that the Originators are required to collect for third parties (such as GEMS).

7. The Buyer further acknowledges that the Originators may designate a percentage of the outstanding amount of Receivables at any time as Excluded Receivables. Such Excluded Receivables shall not constitute Subject Receivables hereunder and any proceeds in respect of such Excluded Receivables shall, to the extent paid to any account of the Buyer (including any Intermediate Account) be turned over to or at the direction of, the relevant Originator or its designee.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL

SECTION 1.1 Agreement To Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Originator, severally and for itself, agrees to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer agrees to purchase from such Originator from time to time on or after the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, but before the Purchase Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.4), all of such Originator’s right, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to:

(a) each Receivable other than any Excluded Receivable, Non-Commodity Related Receivable or Reconveyed Receivable (a “Subject Receivable”) of such Originator that existed and was owing to such Originator at the closing of such Originator’s business on the date (the “Cut-Off Date”) that is (i) with respect to each Originator party hereto on the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, one (1) Business Day prior to the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, and (ii) with respect to any Originator that first becomes a party hereto after the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which such Originator becomes a party hereto or such other date as the Buyer and such Originator agree to in writing;

(b) each Subject Receivable generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-Off Date to but excluding the Purchase Termination Date;

(c) all right, title and interest in, to and under, but not the obligations of, such Originator under all Related Security with respect to any of the foregoing Subject Receivables;

(d) all monies due or to become due to such Originator with respect to any of the foregoing;

(e) all books, records and other information of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing;

(f) all Collections and other proceeds (as defined in the UCC) of any of the foregoing that are or were received by such Originator on or after the Cut-Off Date, (including, without limitation, all funds which either are received by such Originator, the Buyer or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Account Debtors in payment of any amounts owed (including, without limitation, invoice price, finance charges, interest and all other charges) in respect of any of the above Subject Receivables or Related Security or are applied to such amounts owed by the Account Debtors (including, without limitation, any

US-DOCS\148030570.24

insurance payments that such Originator, the Buyer or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Subject Receivables or Related Security, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of repossessed goods or other collateral or property of the Account Debtors in respect of any of the above Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Subject Receivables));

(g) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) with respect to the Subject Receivables sold or contributed hereunder; and

(h) all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to all Intermediate Accounts, Controlled Accounts and Collateral Agent Deposit Accounts into which any Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property acquired with any such Collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC).

All purchases hereunder shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Originators set forth in this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which they are a party. No obligation or liability to any Account Debtor or any other Person on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Buyer hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The Buyer’s foregoing agreement to purchase Subject Receivables and the proceeds and rights described in clauses (e) through (h) (collectively; the “Related Rights”), is herein called the “Purchase Facility.”

SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases.

(a) Effective Date Purchases. Effective on the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, each Originator hereby sells to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Subject Receivable that existed and was owing to such Originator at the Cut-Off Date, and (ii) all Related Rights and Related Security with respect thereto.

(b) Subsequent Purchases. After the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, until the Purchase Termination Date, each Subject Receivable and the Related Rights for such Subject Receivable generated by each Originator shall be, and shall be deemed to have been, sold by such Originator to the Buyer (and without further action other than the payment (including by way of netting) of the Purchase Price to such Originator or its designee) on the date on which such Subject Receivable is generated (or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day) (the Payment Date on which the sale of a Receivable takes place, the “Sale Date” with respect to such Receivable).

SECTION 1.3 Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay the Purchase Price for the Subject Receivables and Related Rights to the Originators or their designees in accordance with Article III.

SECTION 1.4 Purchase Termination Date. The “Purchase Termination Date” shall be the earlier to occur of (a) the Final Payout Date and (b) 45 days following the day on which the Originators shall have given written notice to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) that the Originators desire to terminate this Agreement.

SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties.

(a) It is the express intent of each Originator and the Buyer that each conveyance by such Originator to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement of the Subject Receivables, (including without

US-DOCS\148030570.24

limitation, all Subject Receivables, if any, constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC), and all Related Rights be construed as a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Subject Receivables and Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer (rather than the grant of a security interest to secure a debt or other obligation of such Originator) and that the right, title and interest in and to such Subject Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Buyer be prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including, without limitation, lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator. The parties acknowledge that an outright sale of Receivables or an interest in Receivables is a “security interest” within the meaning of UCC 1-201(b)(35) and as such, the terms and terminology of UCC Article 9 will apply to this Agreement and be used in, or in connection with, this Agreement without thereby affecting the nature of the outright sale hereunder and as such it is also the intent of the parties that this Agreement shall be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of the UCC. However, if, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties, any conveyance of Subject Receivables, including without limitation any Subject Receivables constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, or any Related Rights with respect thereto is not construed to be both a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment of such Subject Receivables or Related Rights, and a conveyance of such Subject Receivables or Related Rights that is prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including without limitation lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator, then, it is the intent of such Originator and the Buyer that such Originator shall be deemed to have granted to the Buyer as of the date of this Agreement, and such Originator hereby grants to the Buyer, a security interest in, to and under all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to the Subject Receivables and the Related Rights now existing and hereafter created by such Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder to secure such Originator’s obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 3.4 and Section 10.1 hereof).

(b) The Originators acknowledge that the Buyer is on-selling the Subject Receivables (other than the Excluded Amounts) and Related Security pursuant to the Borrower Purchase and Contribution Agreement to the Borrower under the ABL Credit Facility and that the Buyer, to secure its obligations under such Borrower Purchase and Contribution Agreement has granted to Borrower a security interest in all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and under this Agreement and each Originator hereby confirms that it recognizes ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s security interest (and right to exercise such security interest) herein. Each Originator further acknowledges that the Borrower has granted to the Administrative Agent under the ABL Credit Facility, for the benefit of such Agent, the Lenders thereunder and the other Secured Parties set forth therein, a security interest in all or substantially all of Borrower’s personal property, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s right, title and interest in this Agreement and each Originator hereby confirms that it recognizes the Administrative Agent’s security interest (and right to exercise such security interest) herein.

ARTICLE II
PURCHASE REPORT; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 2.1 Purchase Report. Each Originator shall provide the Servicer with the information reasonably required by the Servicer for the Servicer to deliver all Purchase Reports required in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof.

SECTION 2.2 Calculation of Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator in accordance with the terms of Article III for the Subject Receivables and the Related Rights that are purchased hereunder from such Originator shall be determined in accordance with the following formula:

PP = (OB x FMVD)

where:

US-DOCS\148030570.24

PP = Purchase Price for each Subject Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date.

OB = The Outstanding Balance of such Subject Receivable on the relevant Payment Date.

FMVD = Such percentage as agreed between such Originator and the Buyer to reflect the fair market price for the Subject Receivables, which initially shall be equal to 1.0 minus a percentage, initially to be set at 0.5%; provided that, such percentage shall not be greater than 1.5% or less than 0.25% without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed

“Payment Date” means (i) the Purchase Agreement Effective Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originators are open for business.

ARTICLE III
PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 3.1 Initial Purchase Price Payment. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay to each Originator or its designee the Purchase Price for the purchase to be made from such Originator on the Purchase Agreement Effective Date in a combination of, at the election of the Buyer, (a) cash of the Buyer (subject to netting) or (b) through a contribution to the Buyer in the case of the Contributing Originator representing an increase in the value of the equity interest of the Contributing Originator in the Buyer in a combined amount equal to the amount of the Purchase Price of Receivables contributed.

SECTION 3.2 Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Purchase Agreement Effective Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer shall pay to each Originator or its designee the Purchase Price for the Subject Receivables and the Related Rights sold by such Originator on such Payment Date in a combination of, at the election of the Buyer, (a) cash of the Buyer (subject to netting) or (b) through a contribution to the Buyer in the case of the Contributing Originator representing an increase in the value of the equity interest of the Contributing Originator in the Buyer equal to the amount of the Purchase Price of Subject Receivables contributed.

SECTION 3.3 Allocation of Payments. All amounts paid by the Buyer in cash shall be allocated first to each Originator other than the Contributing Originator to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor; provided, that if the Buyer does not have sufficient cash available to pay all of the Purchase Price then due and payable to the Originators other than the Contributing Originator, then the Contributing Originator shall, in its sole discretion, contribute to the capital of the Buyer sufficient cash to pay the Purchase Price then due and payable in full to such other Originators or such Originator’s designee (subject to netting against any cash then payable by Buyer to such Originator or such Originator’s designee, as applicable); and second to the Contributing Originator. To the extent cash of the Buyer is not sufficient to pay in full the portion of the Purchase Price then due and payable to the Contributing Originator that the Buyer has elected to pay in cash, the Contributing Originator shall (and hereby irrevocably does without further action) contribute to the capital of the Buyer all Receivables attributable to such unpaid cash portion of the Purchase Price.

SECTION 3.4 Settlement as to Specific Receivables; Reconveyance of Specific Receivables.

US-DOCS\148030570.24

(a) If, (A) on the day of purchase of any Subject Receivable from an Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Section 5.1(k), Section 5.1(l), Section 5.1(w), Section 5.1(z) or Section 5.1(aa) are not true with respect to such Subject Receivable or (B) as a result of any action or (other than with respect to Section 5.1(z)) inaction (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Subject Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Account Debtor) of such Originator, on any subsequent day, any of such representations or warranties set forth in Section 5.1(k), Section 5.1(l) (other than as a result of clauses (k) or (l) in the definition of “Exclusionary Criteria”), Section 5.1(w), Section 5.1(z) or Section 5.1(aa) is no longer true with respect to such Receivable, then such Subject Receivable will be deemed to be an “Reconveyable Receivable”.

(b) Upon any Originator Responsible Officer obtaining knowledge of any Subject Receivable included in the Borrowing Base under the ABL Credit Facility being deemed an Reconveyable Receivable or any Subject Receivable included in the Borrowing Base that is not an Reconveyable Receivable being reduced or canceled as a result of any Dilution Factor (the “Dilution Amount”), the relevant Originator shall:

(i) if, after excluding all such Reconveyable Receivables and all Dilution Amounts from the Borrowing Base, the Payment Conditions, are satisfied, within 5 Business Days of such Originator Responsible Officer obtaining such knowledge, notify Buyer and the Servicer thereof (to the extent Buyer or Servicer, as applicable, has not separately obtained knowledge thereof). The relevant Originator may, or, if directed by the Buyer, shall, elect to have the Buyer reconvey such Reconveyable Receivable to the Seller (in which case Seller shall pay the Purchase Price to Buyer in cash, subject to netting, by wire transfer to an Intermediate Account); or

(ii) if, after excluding all such Reconveyable Receivables and Dilution Amounts from the Borrowing Base, the Payment Conditions are not satisfied, the Relevant Originator shall promptly, and in any event within 3 Business Days (or within 1 Business Day if the Excess Availability after excluding all such Reconveyable Receivables from the Borrowing Base is not at least $1) of such Originator Responsible Officer obtaining such knowledge pay to the Buyer the Purchase Price for such Reconveyable Receivable or the Dilution Amounts, as applicable, by wire transfer to an Intermediate Account, and notify the Buyer and the Servicer thereof (to the extent Buyer or Servicer, as applicable, has not separately obtained knowledge thereof).

(c) Any reconveyance in compliance with any Originator’s payment obligations in clause (a) of this Section shall be without recourse and without representation or warranty except that such Subject Receivable is free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances created by the Buyer. Once so reconveyed by the Buyer to such Originator, such Originator shall not thereafter sell such Receivable (a “Reconveyed Receivable”) to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. The Originator shall be jointly and severally liable with each Originator as to its obligations to the Buyer with respect to Dilution Amounts and the payment of the Purchase Price of Reconveyable Receivables, as provided in this Section 3.4. The Servicer shall be jointly and severally liable with each Originator (except as to itself, in such capacity) as to its obligations to the Buyer with respect to Dilution Amounts and the payment of the Purchase Price of Reconveyable Receivables, as provided in this Section 3.4.

(d) Although the Purchase Price for each Subject Receivable purchased after the date hereof shall be due and payable by the Buyer to the Originator on the applicable Payment Date, a reconciliation of the Purchase Prices between Buyer and each Originator may be effected on any date of determination thereafter as part of reconciling the records as it relates to the outstanding balance of any such Subject Receivable whether as a result of a Dilution Factor or otherwise.

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the other Secured Parties are third-party beneficiaries of the rights of the Buyer arising hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which any Originator is a party, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under the ABL Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent (as the total assignee of ▇▇▇▇▇’s rights hereunder), and not the Buyer, shall have the sole right to exercise all such rights and related remedies.
