If notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the sale, assignment and transfer of the Affected Assets to the Funding Agents is not treated as a sale for all purposes, other than federal and state income tax purposes (as to which the foregoing shall constitute indebtedness of the SPV secured by the Affected Assets), such sale, assignment and transfer of the Affected Assets shall be treated as the grant of, and the SPV hereby does grant, a security interest in the Affected Assets to secure the payment and performance of the SPV’s obligations to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Funding Agents (on behalf of the related Conduit Investor and/or the Related Alternate Investors as applicable) hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents or as may be determined in connection therewith by applicable Law.

Each such payment is herein called an “Investment”.

(b) Reinvestments. On each Business Day during the Reinvestment Period, the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Funding Agents for the benefit of the Conduit Investor and/or the Alternate Investors as applicable), shall pay to the SPV, out of Collections of Receivables, the amount available for Reinvestment in accordance with Section 2.12(a)(iii). Each such payment is hereinafter called a “Reinvestment”. All Reinvestments with respect to the Conduit Investor Percentage and the Alternate Investor Percentage of the Asset Interest shall be made ratably on behalf of the Conduit Investors and Alternate Investors, as applicable, pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding portions of the Alternate Investor Percentage and Conduit Investor Percentage, as applicable, of the Net Investment funded by them.

Any amount which the Administrative Agent (whether on behalf of the Funding Agents for the benefit of the Conduit Investors or the Alternate Investors, if applicable) does not pay pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in § 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against or corporate obligation of the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any Investor for any such insufficiency unless and until such amount becomes available for distribution to the SPV under Section 2.12.

(iii) For aggregate Investment amounts of greater than $100,000,000, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed date of such Investment, in which case the Administrative Agent will notify the Funding Agent for each Conduit Investor and Alternate Investor, as applicable, of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Investment Request by no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed date of the investment.

Each such Investment Request shall specify (i) the desired amount of such Investment (which shall be at least $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, to the extent that the then available unused portion of the Maximum Net Investment is less than such amount, such lesser amount equal to such available unused portion of the Maximum Net Investment), including the aggregate Pro Rata Shares per Purchaser Group of such Investment and (ii) the desired date of such Investment (the “Investment Date”) which shall be a Permitted Investment Date.

(b) Notice. The SPV shall request an Investment hereunder, by request to the Administrative Agent given by facsimile in the form of an Investment Request at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of any Investment (including the initial Investment). Each such Investment Request shall specify (i) the desired amount of such Investment (which shall be at least $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, to the extent that the then available unused portion of the Maximum Net Investment is less than such amount, such lesser amount equal to such available unused portion of the Maximum Net Investment), including the aggregate Pro Rata Shares per Purchaser Group of such Investment, (ii) the Investment Date which shall be a Permitted Investment Date and (iii) the desired Rate Period(s) and allocations of such Investment thereto as required by Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Funding Agent for each Conduit Investor and Alternate Investor, as applicable, of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of an Investment Request to be made to such Person.

(i) Each Funding Agent will promptly notify the related Conduit Investor of each Funding Agent’s receipt of any Investment Request. The Conduit Investor shall instruct such Funding Agent to accept or reject (on such Conduit Investor’s behalf) such Investment Request by notice given to the SPV, the Administrative Agent and such Funding Agent by telephone or facsimile by no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the requested Investment Date. Failure by a Conduit Investor to timely deliver such notice shall be deemed to be an acceptance of such Investment Request.

(ii) Each Investment Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the SPV, and the SPV shall indemnify each Investor against any loss or expense incurred by such Investor, either directly or indirectly (including, in the case of a Conduit Investor, through a Program Support Agreement) as a result of any failure by the SPV to complete such Investment, including any loss (including loss of profit) or expense incurred by a Funding Agent or any Investor, either directly or indirectly (including, in the case of a Conduit Investor, pursuant to a Program Support Agreement) by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of funds acquired by such Investor (or the applicable Program Support Provider(s)) (including funds obtained by issuing commercial paper or promissory notes or obtaining deposits or loans from third parties) in order to fund such Investment.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.3(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, no Alternate Investor shall be obligated to provide any Funding Agent or the SPV with funds in connection with an Investment in an amount that would result in the portion of the Net Investment then funded by it exceeding its Commitment then in effect (minus the unrecovered principal amount of such Alternate Investor’s investment in the Asset Interest pursuant to the Program Support Agreement to which it is a party). The obligation of each Alternate Investor to remit its Special Pro Rata Share of any such Investment shall be several from that of each other Alternate Investor, and the failure of any Alternate Investor to so make such amount available to the Related Funding Agent shall not relieve any other Alternate Investor of its obligation hereunder.

(e) Payment of Investment. On any Investment Date, each Conduit Investor and/or Alternate Investor, as the case may be, shall, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, remit its share of the aggregate amount of such Investment (determined pursuant to Section 2.2(a)) to the Funding Account specified from time to time by the Administrative Agent to each Funding Agent by notice to such Persons by wire transfer of same day funds. Following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of funds from the Investors as aforesaid, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit such funds in the Funding Account in respect of each Investment to the SPV’s account designated pursuant to Section 11.3, by wire transfer of same day funds.

(f) Administrative Agent May Advance Funds. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Funding Agent that any related Investor will not make its share of any Investment available on the applicable Investment Date therefor, the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) make any such Investor’s share of any such Investment available to the SPV in anticipation of the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amount from the applicable Investor. To the extent any such Investor or Funding Agent on behalf of such Investor fails to remit any such amount to the Administrative Agent after any such advance by the Administrative Agent on such Investment Date, such Investor, on the one hand, and the SPV, on the other hand, shall be required to pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for its own account, together with interest thereon at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate, in the case of such Investor, or the Base Rate, in the case of the SPV, to the Administrative Agent upon its demand therefor (provided that a Conduit Investor shall have no obligation to pay such interest amounts except to the extent that it shall have sufficient funds to pay the face amount of its Commercial Paper in full). Until such amount shall be repaid, such amount shall be deemed to be Net Investment paid by the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be the owner of an interest in the Asset Interest hereunder to the extent of such Investment. Upon the payment of such amount to the Administrative Agent (i) by the SPV, the amount of the aggregate Net Investment shall be reduced by such amount or (ii) by such Investor, such payment shall constitute such Investor’s payment of its share of the applicable Investment.

All computations of Yield and all per annum fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day(except in the case of a Rate Period applicable to a Pooled Funding Conduit Investor, which shall include the first and the last day)) elapsed. Any computations by the Administrative Agent of amounts payable by the SPV hereunder shall be binding upon the SPV absent manifest error. The determination of the CP Rate by each Funding Agent on behalf of its related Conduit Investor shall be conclusive and binding upon the SPV absent manifest error.

The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control over the Collection Account and all monies, instruments and other property from time to time in the Collection Account. On and after the occurrence of a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured), the Master Servicer shall remit daily within one Business Day of receipt to the Collection Account all Collections received. Funds on deposit in the Collection Account (other than investment earnings) shall be invested by the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Funding Agents on behalf of the Investors, in Eligible Investments that will mature so that such funds will be available so as to permit amounts in the Collection Account to be paid and applied on the next Settlement Date and otherwise in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12; provided that such funds shall not reduce the Net Investment or accrued Yield hereunder until so applied under Section 2.12. On each Remittance Date, all interest and earnings (net of losses and investment expenses) on funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall be applied as Collections set aside for the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.11 . Right of Setoff. Without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 2.10, the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and each Investor is hereby authorized (in addition to any other rights it may have) at any time after the occurrence of the Termination Date due to the occurrence of a Termination Event or during the continuance of a Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured) to set-off, appropriate and apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly waived) any deposits and any other indebtedness held or owing by the Administrative Agent, such Funding Agent or such Investor to, or for the account of, the SPV against the amount of the Aggregate Unpaids owing by the SPV to such Person or to the Administrative Agent, or such Funding Agent on behalf of such Person (even if contingent or unmatured).

(d) Perfection. In the case of the SPV, it is the owner of all of the Receivables and other Affected Assets, free and clear of all Adverse Claims (other than any Adverse Claim arising hereunder), and upon the making of the initial Investment on the Closing Date and at all times thereafter until the Final Payout Date, all financing statements and other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect and protect the first priority perfected ownership or security interest of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each Funding Agent on behalf of the related Investors in the Asset Interest against all creditors of and purchasers from the SPV, Arrow and the other Originators will have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose and all filing fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings shall have been paid in full.

(e) Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore furnished by it (including the Master Servicer Reports and its financial statements) to any Investor, any Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby was true, complete and accurate in every material respect, on the date such information is stated or certified, and no such item contains or contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or did omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which (and as of the date) they were made, not misleading.

(f) Tax Status; GAAP Treatment. It has (i) in the case of the SPV, timely filed all tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed and, in the case of the Master Servicer, filed all material tax returns (federal, state and local) required to be filed and (ii) paid or made adequate provision for the payment of all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges and, solely with respect to the Master Servicer, which, individually or in the aggregate, would not result in liability in excess of $5,000,000.

(g) Action, Suits. It is not in violation of any order of Official Body or arbitrator which could not, in the aggregate, be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), businesses or properties of Arrow and the other Originators, taken as a whole. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.1(g), there are no actions, suits, litigation or proceedings pending, or to its knowledge, threatened, against or affecting it or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties, in or before any Official Body or arbitrator which in each case with respect to the Master Servicer or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the SPV), if adversely determined could have a Material Adverse Effect or a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), businesses or properties of Arrow and the other Originators, taken as a whole.

(h) Use of Proceeds. In the case of the SPV, no proceeds of any Investment or Reinvestment will be used by it (i) to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (ii) to acquire any equity security of a class which is registered pursuant to Section 12 of such act or (iii) for any other purpose that violates applicable Law, including Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board.

(i) Principal Place of Business; Chief Executive Office; Location of Records. Its principal place of business, chief executive office and the offices where it keeps all its material Records, are located at the address(es) described on Schedule 4.1(i) or such other locations notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 7.7 in jurisdictions where all action required by Section 7.7 has been taken and completed.

(j) Subsidiaries; Tradenames, Etc. In the case of the SPV, as of the Closing Date: (i) it has only the Subsidiaries and divisions listed on Schedule 4.1(j); and (ii) it has, within the last five (5) years, operated only under the tradenames identified in Schedule 4.1(j), and, within the last five (5) years, has not changed its name, the location of its chief executive office, merged with or into or consolidated with any other Person or been the subject of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, except as disclosed in Schedule 4.1(j).

(l) Nature of Receivables. Each Receivable (i) represented by it to be an Eligible Receivable in any Master Servicer Report or (ii) included in the calculation of the Net Pool Balance in fact satisfies at such time the definition of “Eligible Receivable” set forth herein and, in the case of clause (ii) above, is not a Receivable of the type described in clauses (b)(i) or (b)(ii) of the definition of “Net Pool Balance”. It has no knowledge of any fact (including any defaults by the Obligor thereunder on any other Receivable) that would cause it or should have caused it to expect any payments on such Receivable not to be paid in full when due or that is reasonably likely to cause or result in any other Material Adverse Effect with respect to such Receivable.

It has at all times materially complied with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable.

(o) Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 1999, there has been no Material Adverse Effect.

(p) No Termination Event. In the case of the SPV, no event has occurred and is continuing and no condition exists, or would result from any Investment or Reinvestment or from the application of the proceeds therefrom, which constitutes or may be reasonable be expected to constitute a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event. In the case of the Master Servicer, no Master Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing to exist.

(q) Not an Investment Company or Holding Company. It is not, and is not controlled by, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or is exempt from all provisions of such act. It is not a “holding company,” or a subsidiary or affiliate of a “holding company,” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.

(r) ERISA. No steps have been taken by any Person to terminate any Pension Plan the assets of which will not be sufficient to satisfy all of its benefit liabilities (as determined under Title IV of ERISA) on the date of such termination. Neither Arrow, the SPV nor any ERISA Affiliates of either such Person has incurred any withdrawal liability (which has not been satisfied) under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Multiemployer Plan. No contribution failure has occurred with respect to any Pension Plan sufficient to give rise to a lien under Section 302(f) of ERISA, and each Pension Plan has been administered in all material respects in compliance with its terms and applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code.

(s) Blocked Accounts. The names and addresses of all the Blocked Account Banks, together with the account numbers of the Blocked Accounts at such Blocked Account Banks, are specified in Schedule 4.1(s) (or at such other Blocked Account Banks and/or with such other Blocked Accounts as have been notified to the Administrative Agent and for which Blocked Account Agreements have been executed in accordance with Section 7.3 and delivered to the Master Servicer). All Blocked Accounts are subject to Blocked Account Agreements. All Obligors have been instructed to make payment to a Blocked Account and only Collections are deposited into the Blocked Accounts, except for other amounts (i) that are withdrawn from such Blocked Accounts within one Business Day of such amounts becoming available for transfer therefrom or (ii) that are deposited in respect of HP Receivables which are not HP Purchased Receivables.

(t) Bulk Sales. In the case of the SPV, no transaction contemplated hereby or by the First Tier Agreement requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(u) Transfers Under First Tier Agreement. In the case of the SPV, each Receivable has been purchased by it from Arrow pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the First Tier Agreement. In the case of Arrow, each Receivable has either been originated by Arrow or purchased by Arrow from an Originator pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Originator Sale Agreement.

(v) Preference; Voidability. In the case of the SPV, it shall have given reasonably equivalent value to Arrow in consideration for the transfer to it of the Affected Assets from Arrow, and each such transfer shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by Arrow to it and no such transfer is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Code.

(w) Nonconsolidation. The SPV is operated in such a manner that the separate corporate existence of the SPV, on the one hand, and each Originator or any Affiliate thereof, on the other, would not be disregarded in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) the SPV is a limited purpose corporation whose activities are restricted in its certificate of incorporation to activities related to purchasing or otherwise acquiring receivables (including the Receivables) and related assets and rights and conducting any related or incidental business or activities it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out its primary purpose, including entering into agreements like the Transaction Documents;

(xi) the SPV does not guarantee, and is not otherwise liable, with respect to any obligation of any of its Affiliates;

(xii) any financial reports required of the SPV comply with generally accepted accounting principles and are issued separately from, but may be consolidated with, any reports prepared for any of its Affiliates;

(xiii) at all times the SPV is adequately capitalized to engage in the transactions contemplated in its certificate of incorporation;

(xiv) the financial statements and books and records of the SPV and Arrow reflect the separate corporate existence of the SPV;

(xv) the SPV does not act as agent for any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, but instead presents itself to the public as a corporation separate from each such member and independently engaged in the business of purchasing and financing Receivables;

(xvi) the SPV maintains a three-person board of directors, including at least one independent director, who has never been, and shall at no time be a stockholder, director, officer, employee or associate, or any relative of the foregoing, of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof (other than the SPV and any other bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity formed for the sole purpose of securitizing, or facilitating the securitization of, financial assets of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof), all as provided in its certificate or articles of incorporation, and is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Investors, the Funding Agents and the Administrative Agent; and

(xvii) the bylaws or the certificate or articles of incorporation of the SPV require the affirmative vote of the independent director before a voluntary petition under Section 301 of the Bankruptcy Code may be filed by the SPV, and the SPV to maintain correct and complete books and records of account and minutes of the meetings and other proceedings of its stockholders and board of directors.

(d) The Master Servicer may delegate its duties and obligations hereunder to any subservicer (each, a “Sub-Servicer”); provided that, in each such delegation, (i) such Sub-Servicer shall agree in writing to perform the duties and obligations of the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the Master Servicer shall remain primarily liable to the SPV, the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and the Investors for the performance of the duties and obligations so delegated, (iii) the SPV, the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents, the Investors and each Originator shall have the right to look solely to the Master Servicer for performance and (iv) the terms of any agreement with any Sub-Servicer shall provide that the Administrative Agent may terminate such agreement upon the termination of the Master Servicer hereunder by giving notice of its desire to terminate such agreement to the Master Servicer (and the Master Servicer shall provide appropriate notice to such Sub-Servicer).

(e) Arrow hereby irrevocably agrees that if at any time it shall cease to be the Master Servicer hereunder, it shall act (if the then current Master Servicer so requests) as the data-processing agent of the Master Servicer and, in such capacity, Arrow shall conduct, for a reasonable fee as may be agreed between Arrow and the Administrative Agent, the data-processing functions of the administration of the Receivables and the Collections thereon in substantially the same way that Arrow conducted such data-processing functions while it acted as the Master Servicer.

SECTION 7.2 . Duties of Master Servicer. (a) The Master Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with this Agreement and all applicable Law, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy. The Master Servicer shall set aside (and, if applicable, segregate) and hold in trust for the account of the SPV, the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents and the Investors the amount of the Collections to which each is entitled in accordance with Article II. So long as no Termination Event or Potential Termination Event shall have occurred and is continuing, the Master Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable (but not beyond ten (10) days) and extend the maturity or adjust the Unpaid Balance of any Defaulted Receivable as the Master Servicer may determine to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that (i) such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the SPV, the Investors, the Funding Agents or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and (ii) if a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event has occurred and Arrow is still acting as Master Servicer, Arrow may make such extension or adjustment only upon the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent. The SPV shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer shall hold in trust for the SPV and the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Funding Agents on behalf of the Investors, in accordance with their respective interests, all Records which evidence or relate to any Affected Asset. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Agent shall have the right in its reasonable discretion to direct the Master Servicer (whether Arrow, any other Originator or any other Person is the Master Servicer) to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Affected Asset provided, however, that upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured), the Administrative Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to so direct the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall not make the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent or any Investor a party to any litigation without the prior written consent of such Person. At any time when a Termination Event or Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured) exists, the Administrative Agent may notify any Obligor of its interest in the Receivables and the other Affected Assets.

(b) The Master Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof, turn over to the SPV all collections from any Person of indebtedness of such Person which are not on account of a Receivable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, the Master Servicer, if not the SPV, Arrow, any Affiliate of the SPV, or Arrow, shall have no obligation to collect, enforce or take any other action described in this Article VII with respect to any indebtedness that is not included in the Asset Interest other than to deliver to the SPV the Collections and documents with respect to any such indebtedness as described above in this Section 7.2(b).

(c) The Funding Agents may engage twice during any twelve-month period, commencing June 1, 2003, at the Master Servicer’s sole expense, the services of a specialty audit firm or a firm of independent public accountants (which may also render other services to the Master Servicer), to furnish an agreed-upon procedures report to the Funding Agents substantially in compliance with the procedures set forth in Schedule V or any additional procedures as the Funding Agents reasonably deem appropriate; provided that, if the senior unsecured debt of Arrow is rated below BBB- or Baa3 by S&P or Xxxxx’x, respectively, the Funding Agents retain the right to request such reports on a reasonable, more frequent basis, at the Master Servicer’s sole expense.

(d) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to an Originator shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor, required by contract or law or clearly indicated by facts or circumstances (including by way of example an equivalence of a payment and the amount of a particular invoice) after due investigation in accordance with such Originator’s Credit and Collection Policy, and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence of a Termination Date, 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 indebtedness of such Obligor.

SECTION 7.3 . Blocked Account Arrangements. Prior to the initial Investment hereunder, the SPV, Arrow and each other Originator shall enter into Blocked Account Agreements with all of the Blocked Account Banks, and deliver original counterparts thereof to the Administrative Agent. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured), the Administrative Agent may at any time thereafter give notice to each Blocked Account Bank that the Administrative Agent is exercising its rights under the Blocked Account Agreements to do any or all of the following: (i) to have the exclusive ownership and control of the Blocked Account Accounts transferred to the Administrative Agent and to exercise exclusive dominion and control over the funds deposited therein, (ii) to have the proceeds that are sent to the respective Blocked Accounts be redirected pursuant to its instructions rather than deposited in the applicable Blocked Account, and (iii) to take any or all other actions permitted under the applicable Blocked Account Agreement. Arrow hereby agrees that if the Administrative Agent, at any time, takes any action set forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Receivables and Arrow hereby further agrees to take any other action that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to transfer such control. Any proceeds of Receivables received by Arrow, as Master Servicer or otherwise, thereafter shall be sent immediately to the Administrative Agent. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that if at any time the Administrative Agent takes control of any Blocked Account, the Administrative Agent shall not have any rights to the funds therein in excess of the unpaid amounts due to SPV, the Administrative Agent and the Investors or any other Person hereunder and the Administrative Agent shall distribute or cause to be distributed such funds in accordance with Section 7.2(b) (including the proviso thereto) and Article II (in each case as if such funds were held by the Master Servicer thereunder); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to remit any such funds to the SPV, Arrow or any other Person unless and until the Administrative Agent has received from such Person evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the Originator or such Person is entitled to such funds hereunder and under applicable Law.

SECTION 7.4 . Enforcement Rights After Designation of New Master Servicer. (a) At any time following the occurrence of a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event (which Potential Termination Event is not capable of being cured):

(i) the Administrative Agent may, and upon the direction of the Majority Investors shall, direct the Obligors that payment of all amounts payable under any Receivable be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee;

(ii) the SPV shall, at the Administrative Agent’s request (which request shall be made at the direction of the Majority Investors or in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and at the SPV’s expense, give notice of the Administrative Agent’s, the SPV’s, and/or the Investors’ ownership of the Receivables and (in the case of the Administrative Agent) interest in the Asset Interest to each Obligor and direct that payments be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee, except that if the SPV fails to so notify each Obligor, the Administrative Agent may so notify the Obligors; and

(iii) the SPV shall, at the Administrative Agent’s request (which request shall be made at the direction of the Majority Investors or in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion), (A) assemble all of the Records and shall make the same available to the Administrative Agent or its designee at a place selected by the Administrative Agent or its designee, and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections of Receivables in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrative Agent or its designee.

(b) The SPV and Arrow hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, and irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of the SPV or Arrow, as applicable, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to take any and all steps in the name of the SPV or Arrow, as applicable, and on behalf of the SPV or Arrow, as applicable, necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Administrative Agent, to collect any and all amounts or portions thereof due under any and all Receivables or Related Security, including endorsing the name of Arrow on checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing such Receivables, Related Security and the related Contracts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection (b), none of the powers conferred upon such attorney-in-fact pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall subject such attorney-in-fact to any liability if any action taken by it shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, nor shall they confer any obligations upon such attorney-in-fact in any manner whatsoever.

SECTION 7.5 . Master Servicer Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute a “Master Servicer Default”:

(a) The Master Servicer (i) shall fail to make any payment or deposit required to be made by it hereunder within one (1) Business Day of when due or the Master Servicer shall fail to observe or perform any term, covenant or agreement on the Master Servicer’s part to be performed under Sections 6.1(b)(i) (conduct of business, ownership), 6.1(f) (compliance with receivables and credit and collection policy), 6.1(h) (obligor payments), 6.1(i) (handling collections), 6.2(a) (no sales or liens), 6.2(c) (no change in business or policy), 6.2(d) (no subsidiaries, mergers), 6.2(e) (no change in obligor payments), or 6.2(f) (no change in handling collections) (any of the preceding parenthetical phrases in this clause (i) are for purposes of reference only and shall not otherwise affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision hereof), or (ii) shall fail to observe or perform any other term, covenant or agreement to be observed or performed by it under Sections 2.8, 2.9, 2.12 or 2.15, or (iii) shall fail to observe or perform any other term, covenant or agreement hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents to which such Person is a party or by which such Person is bound, and such failure shall remain unremedied for twenty (20) days; or

(b) any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by the Master Servicer in this Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreements or in any of the other Transaction Documents or in any certificate or report delivered by it pursuant to any of the foregoing shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made; or

(c) failure of the Master Servicer or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the SPV) to pay when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period) any amounts due under any agreement under which any Indebtedness greater than $50,000,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency) is governed; or the default by the Master Servicer or any of its Subsidiaries in the performance of any term, provision or condition contained in any agreement under which any Indebtedness greater than $50,000,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency) was created or is governed, regardless of whether such event is an “event of default” or “default” under any such agreement if the effect of such default is to cause, or permit the holder(s) or any trustee or agent on behalf of holder(s) of such Indebtedness to cause such Indebtedness to become due and payable or required to become prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled payment) prior to the scheduled date of maturity thereof; or

(d) any Event of Bankruptcy shall occur with respect to the Master Servicer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries; or

(e) there shall have occurred an event which, materially and adversely affects the Master Servicer’s ability to either collect the Receivables or to perform its obligations as Master Servicer under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.6 . Servicing Fee. The Master Servicer shall be paid a Servicing Fee in accordance with Section 2.12 and subject to the priorities therein. If the Master Servicer is not the SPV or Arrow or an Affiliate of the SPV or Arrow, the Master Servicer, by giving three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, may revise the percentage used to calculate the Servicing Fee so long as the revised percentage will not result in a Servicing Fee that exceeds 110% of the reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Master Servicer incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder as documented to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that at any time after the Net Investment, plus Required Reserves exceeds the Net Pool Balance, any compensation to the Master Servicer in excess of the Servicing Fee initially provided for herein shall be an obligation of the SPV and shall not be payable, in whole or in part, from Collections allocated to the Investors.

SECTION 7.7 . Protection of Ownership Interest of the Investors. Each of Arrow and the SPV agrees that it shall, and Arrow shall cause each other Originator, from time to time, at its expense to, promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents and take all actions as may be necessary or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to perfect or protect the Asset Interest or to enable the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents or the Investors to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, each of Arrow and the SPV shall, and Arrow shall cause each other Originator to, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, acting at the written direction of any Funding Agent or Investor, in order to accurately reflect this purchase and sale transaction, (i) execute and file such financing or continuation statements or change statements or amendments thereto or any registrations, instruments or notices or assignments thereof (as otherwise permitted to be executed and filed pursuant hereto) as may be requested by the Administrative Agent, at the direction of any Funding Agent or Investor, and (ii) xxxx its respective master data processing records and other documents with a legend describing the conveyance to the to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Funding Agents for the benefit of the Investors, of the Asset Interest. Each of Arrow and the SPV shall, and Arrow shall cause each other Originator to, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, at the direction of any Funding Agent or Investor, obtain such additional search reports as the Administrative Agent at the direction of any Funding Agent or Investor shall request. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to sign and file continuation statements and amendments thereto and assignments thereof without the SPV’s or Arrow’s signature. Carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement. Neither Arrow nor the SPV shall, nor shall Arrow permit any Originator to, change its respective name, identity or corporate structure which could cause any UCC financing statement filed in connection with this Agreement to become “seriously misleading” (within the meaning of Section 9-402(7) of the UCC as in effect in the States of New York, Colorado, Minnesota, Georgia and Indiana, as applicable, with respect to each such entity) nor relocate its respective chief executive office unless it shall have: (A) given the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days prior notice thereof and (B) prepared at the SPV’s expense and delivered to the Administrative Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents necessary to preserve and protect the Asset Interest as requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such change or relocation. Any filings under the UCC or otherwise that are occasioned by such change in name or location shall be made at the expense of the SPV.

(iii) imposes upon any Indemnified Party any other condition or expense (including any loss of margin, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, and expenses of litigation or preparation therefor in contesting any of the foregoing) with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the ownership, maintenance or financing of the Asset Interest, or payments of amounts due hereunder or its obligation to advance funds hereunder under a Program Support Agreement or the credit or liquidity support furnished by a Program Support Provider pursuant to a Program Support Agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the ownership, maintenance or financing of the Asset Interests,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Indemnified Party with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the ownership, maintenance or financing of the Asset Interest, the Receivables, the obligations hereunder or under a Program Support Agreement, the funding of any purchases hereunder or a Program Support Agreement or the provision of credit or liquidity under a Program Support Agreement by an amount deemed by such Indemnified Party to be material, then, within ten (10) days after demand by such Indemnified Party through the Administrative Agent, the SPV shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Indemnified Party, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Indemnified Party shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable Law, any generally accepted accounting principle or bank regulatory guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Official Body or any accounting board or authority responsible for the establishment or interpretation of national or international accounting principles (other than with respect to an Accounting Based Consolidation Event (as defined in Schedule IV hereto)), or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (in the case of any bank regulatory guideline, whether or not having the force of law) of any such Official Body or the compliance with any law, bank regulatory guideline or directive of any Official Body, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Indemnified Party (or its parent) as a consequence of such Indemnified Party’s obligations hereunder or under a Program Support Agreement or with respect hereto or thereto to a level below that which such Indemnified Party (or its parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Indemnified Party to be material, then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by such Indemnified Party through the Administrative Agent, the SPV shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Indemnified Party, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party (or its parent) for such reduction.

(c) The applicable Funding Agent shall promptly notify the SPV and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle an Indemnified Party to compensation pursuant to this Section 9.2; provided that no failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall affect the Indemnified Party’s right to receive such compensation. A notice by such Funding Agent or the applicable Indemnified Party claiming compensation under this Section 9.2 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Funding Agent or any applicable Indemnified Party may use any reasonable averaging and attributing methods.

(d) Anything in this Section 9.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Conduit Investor enters into agreements for the acquisition of interests in receivables from one or more Other SPVs, such Conduit Investor shall allocate the liability for any amounts under this Section 9.2 which are in connection with a Program Support Agreement or the credit or liquidity support provided by a Program Support Provider (“Additional Costs”) to the SPV and each Other SPV; provided, however, that if such Additional Costs are attributable to the SPV, any Originator or the Master Servicer and not attributable to any Other SPV, the SPV shall be solely liable for such Additional Costs or if such Additional Costs are attributable to Other SPVs and not attributable to the SPV, any Originator or the Master Servicer, such Other SPVs shall be solely liable for such Additional Costs.

SECTION 9.3 . Taxes. (a) All payments and distributions made hereunder by or on behalf of the SPV or the Master Servicer (each, a “payor”) to any Indemnified Party (each, a “recipient”) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and any other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority (such items being called “Taxes”), but excluding Excluded Taxes.

(b) In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment made by the payor hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes, then such payor shall:

(i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(ii) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such authority; and

(iii) subject to Section 9.3(e), pay to the recipient such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the recipient will equal the full amount such recipient would have received had no such withholding or deduction of Taxes, other than Excluded Taxes been required.

(c) If any Taxes are directly asserted against any recipient with respect to any payment received by such recipient hereunder, the recipient may pay such Taxes and the payor will, subject to Section 9.3(e), promptly pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as shall be necessary in order that the net amount received by the recipient after the payment of such Taxes other than Excluded Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such recipient would have received had such Taxes other than Excluded Taxes not been asserted.

(d) If the payor fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the recipient the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the payor shall indemnify the recipient for any incremental Taxes, interest, or penalties that may become payable by any recipient as a result of any such failure.

(e) Each Investor that is not a United States person within the meaning of section 7701(A)(30) of the Code shall on the Closing Date (or if later, the date on which such person first becomes an Investor hereunder by assignment or otherwise) provide to the Administrative Agent to be forwarded to the relevant payor either (i) a duly completed IRS Form W-8ECI, (ii) a duly completed IRS Form W-8BEN, in each case entitling such Investor to a complete exemption from withholding on payments and distributions hereunder (which in the case of a form W-8BEN, is based on its entitlement to exemption under an applicable income tax treaty). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 9.3, no payor shall be required to pay any additional amounts or indemnities in respect of Taxes to a recipient that exceed the amount that would have been payable had the recipient complied with its obligations under this Section 9.3(e).

SECTION 9.4 . Other Costs and Expenses; Breakage Costs. (a) The SPV agrees, upon receipt of a written invoice, to pay or cause to be paid, and to save the Investors, the Funding Agents and the Administrative Agent harmless against liability for the payment of, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’, accountants’, rating agencies’, and other third parties’ fees and expenses, any filing fees and expenses incurred by officers or employees of any Investor and/or the Administrative Agent) or intangible, documentary or recording taxes incurred by or on behalf of the any Investor, any Funding Agent or the Administrative Agent (i) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any documents or instruments delivered pursuant hereto and thereto and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the perfection or protection of the Asset Interest) (which payment of attorneys’ fees and expenses, in the case of this clause (i) shall be limited to Dechert LLP, Sidley Austin LLP or any other attorneys’ fees and expenses of an attorney approved in advance by the Master Servicer) and (ii) from time to time (A) relating to any amendments, waivers or consents under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (B) arising in connection with any Investor’s, any Funding Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s enforcement or preservation of rights (including the perfection and protection of the Asset Interest under this Agreement), or (C) arising in connection with any dispute, disagreement, litigation or preparation for litigation involving this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (all of such amounts, collectively, “Transaction Costs”).

(b) The SPV shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of each Investor, as applicable, on demand, such amount or amounts as shall compensate such Investor for any loss (including loss of profit), cost or expense incurred by it (as reasonably determined by the applicable Funding Agent) as a result of any reduction of any Portion of Investment of such Investor other than on the last day of the related Rate Period (determined without regard for clause (ii) of paragraph (a) of the definition thereof) funding such Portion of Investment of such Investor, such compensation to be (i) limited to an amount equal to any loss or expense suffered by the Investors during the period from the date of receipt of such repayment to (but excluding) the maturity date of such Commercial Paper (or other financing source) and (ii) net of the income, if any, received by the recipient of such reductions from investing the proceeds of such reductions of such Portion of Investment. The determination by the Related Funding Agent of the amount of any such loss or expense shall be set forth in a written notice to the SPV and Administrative Agent in reasonable detail and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

SECTION 9.5 . Reconveyance Under Certain Circumstances. The SPV agrees to accept the reconveyance from the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Funding Agents for the benefit of the Investors, of the Asset Interest if the Administrative Agent notifies SPV of a material breach of any representation or warranty made or deemed made pursuant to Article IV and the SPV shall fail to cure such breach within fifteen (15) days (or, in the case of the representations and warranties in Sections 4.1(d) and 4.1(k), three (3) days) of such notice. The reconveyance price shall be paid by the SPV to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Investors, as applicable in immediately available funds on such 15th day (or 3rd day, if applicable) in an amount equal to the Aggregate Unpaids.

SECTION 9.6 . Indemnities by the Master Servicer. Without limiting any other rights which the Administrative Agent, the Funding Agents or the Investors or the other Indemnified Parties may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Master Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (without recourse, except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts arising out of or resulting from (whether directly or indirectly) (a) the failure of any information contained in any Master Servicer Report (to the extent provided by the Master Servicer) to be true and correct, or the failure of any other information provided to any Indemnified Party by, or on behalf of, the Master Servicer to be true and correct, (b) the failure of any representation, warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Master Servicer (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement to have been true and correct as of the date made or deemed made, (c) the failure by the Master Servicer to comply with any applicable Law with respect to any Receivable or the related Contract, (d) any dispute, claim, offset or defense of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable resulting from or related to the collection activities in respect of such Receivable, or (e) any failure of the Master Servicer to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 10.1 . Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each of the Investors and the Funding Agents hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Investor or Funding Agent, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

SECTION 10.2 . Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any Administrative Agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

SECTION 10.3 . Liability of Administrative Agent. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any Investor or Funding Agent for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the SPV, any Originator or the Master Servicer, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for any failure of the SPV, any Originator, the Master Servicer or any other party to any Transaction Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Investor to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the SPV, any Originator or the Master Servicer or any of their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 10.4 . Reliance by Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the SPV, the Originators and the Master Servicer), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Funding Agents, on behalf of the Conduit Investors or the Majority Investors, as applicable, as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Investors or Funding Agents, as applicable, against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Funding Agents, on behalf of the Conduit Investors or the Majority Investors, as applicable, or, if required hereunder, all Investors and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Funding Agents and Investors.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Article V, each Funding Agent and Investor that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to such Funding Agent or Investor for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Funding Agent or Investor.

SECTION 10.5 . Notice of Termination Event, Potential Termination Event or Master Servicer Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Potential Termination Event, a Termination Event or a Master Servicer Default, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Funding Agent, an Investor, the Master Servicer or the SPV referring to this Agreement, describing such Potential Termination Event, Termination Event or Master Servicer Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Termination Event or Potential Termination Event” or “Notice of Master Servicer Default,” as applicable. The Administrative Agent will notify the Investors and the Funding Agents of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 10.4) take such action with respect to such Potential Termination Event, Termination Event or Master Servicer Default as may be requested by the Majority Investors (except as otherwise explicitly set forth herein), provided, however, that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received any such request, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Potential Termination Event, Termination Event or Master Servicer Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Investors.

SECTION 10.6 . Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by the Administrative Agent. Each Investor and Funding Agent acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the SPV, the Master Servicer, the Originators or any of their respective Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person to any Investor or Funding Agent as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Investor and Funding Agent, including any Investor or Funding Agent by assignment, represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the SPV, the Master Servicer, the Originators or their respective Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the SPV hereunder. Each Investor and Funding Agent also represents that it shall, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the SPV, the Master Servicer or the Originators. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Investors or the Funding Agents by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Investor or Funding Agent with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the SPV, the Master Servicer, the Originators or their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons.

SECTION 10.7 . Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Alternate Investors shall indemnify upon demand each Administrative Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the SPV (including by the Seller under the First Tier Agreement or the Master Servicer hereunder) and without limiting the obligation of the SPV to do so), pro rata based upon such Alternate Investor’s Commitment relative to the Aggregate Commitment, and hold harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts incurred by it; provided, however, that no Alternate Investor shall be liable for the payment to any Administrative Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Amounts resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Majority Investors shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Funding Agent and Alternate Investor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the SPV (including by the Seller under the First Tier Agreement or the Master Servicer hereunder). The undertaking in this Section shall survive payment on the Final Payout Date and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.8 . Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Bank of America (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with any of the SPV, any Originator and the Master Servicer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates as though Bank of America were not the Administrative Agent or an Alternate Investor hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Investors or the Funding Agents. The Funding Agents and the Investors acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the SPV, the Originators, the Master Servicer or their respective Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Commitment, Bank of America (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) in its capacity as an Alternate Investor hereunder shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Alternate Investor and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent or an Alternate Investor, and the term “Alternate Investor” or “Alternate Investors” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

SECTION 10.9 . Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Funding Agents and the Investors. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Majority Investors shall appoint from among the Alternate Investors a successor agent for the Investors. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Investors and Arrow a successor agent from among the Alternate Investors. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10.9 and Sections 10.3 and 10.7 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may engage a third-party to act as Administrative Agent, after consulting with the SPV, the Master Servicer and the Investors. The Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective upon the acceptance of such Person as administrative agent. Any fees payable to the successor administrative agent in excess of the Administrative Fee then payable to the resigning Administrative Agent shall be paid by the Alternate Investors and reimbursed by the SPV as an Aggregate Unpaid.

SECTION 10.10 . Payments by the Administrative Agent. Unless specifically allocated to an Alternate Investor or an Indemnified Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Alternate Investors shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Alternate Investors (at their respective accounts specified in their respective Assignment and Assumption Agreements) pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding funded portions of the Net Investment on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless such amounts are received after 12:00 noon on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to the Alternate Investors on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to the Alternate Investors not later than the following Business Day.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.2(b), in connection solely with an Additional Commitment Amendment to this Agreement, the consent solely of the SPV, Arrow and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required and this Agreement shall be amended by such Additional Commitment Amendment if such amendment is in writing and signed by each of the SPV, Arrow and the Administrative Agent and such Additional Commitment Amendment does not increase the Conduit Funding Limit for any Conduit Investor or the Commitment of any Alternate Lender without such Conduit Investor’s and/or Alternate Investor’s consent in its sole discretion.

The SPV agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent, each Funding Agent and Conduit Investor a written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an authorized officer of SPV. However, the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent, the records of the Administrative Agent shall govern.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding on the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that none of the SPV, the Master Servicer, any Originator (including Arrow) may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder, or under the First Tier Agreement, or under any Originator Sale Agreement, as applicable or under any of the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party without the prior written consent of each Funding Agent. Except as provided in clause (b) below, no provision of this Agreement shall in any manner restrict the ability of any Investor to assign, participate, grant security interests in, or otherwise transfer any portion of the Asset Interest, including without limitation, the right of any Conduit Investor to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to its Related Alternate Investors without the consent of any other party hereto.

(b) Any Alternate Investor may assign all or any portion of its Commitment and its interest in the Net Investment, the Asset Interest and its other rights and obligations hereunder to any Person with notice to the Administrative Agent and the written approval of the Related Funding Agent, on behalf of the Conduit Investor and, so long as no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the SPV (which approval of the SPV shall not be unreasonably withheld). In connection with any such assignment, the assignor shall deliver to the assignee(s) an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, duly executed, assigning to such assignee a pro rata interest in such assignor’s Commitment and other obligations hereunder and in the Net Investment, the Asset Interest and other rights hereunder, and such assignor shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the assignee may reasonably request, in order to protect, or more fully evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in and to such interest and to enable the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such assignee, to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which such assignor is or, immediately prior to such assignment, was a party. Upon any such assignment, (i) the assignee shall have all of the rights and obligations of the assignor hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which such assignor is or, immediately prior to such assignment, was a party with respect to such assignor’s Commitment and interest in the Net Investment and the Asset Interest for all purposes of this Agreement and under the other Transaction Documents to which such assignor is or, immediately prior to such assignment, was a party and (ii) the assignor shall have no further obligations with respect to the portion of its Commitment which has been assigned and shall relinquish its rights with respect to the portion of its interest in the Net Investment and the Asset Interest which has been assigned for all purposes of this Agreement and under the other Transaction Documents to which such assignor is or, immediately prior to such assignment, was a party. No such assignment shall be effective unless a fully executed copy of the related Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent and the SPV. All costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) of the Administrative Agent, the assignor Alternate Investor and the assignee Alternate Investor incurred in connection with any assignment hereunder shall be borne by the assignor.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignor and assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value or this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any such other instrument or document; (ii) the assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the SPV, Arrow, any Originator other than Arrow or the Master Servicer or the performance or observance by the SPV, Arrow, any Originator other than Arrow or the Master Servicer of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, each other Transaction Document and such other instruments, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption Agreement and to purchase such interest; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of its Affiliates, or the assignor and based on such agreements, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as provided (and subject to all restrictions set forth) in this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and to enforce its respective rights and interests in and under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Affected Assets; (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are required to be performed by it as the assignee of the assignor; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will not institute against the Conduit Investor any proceeding of the type referred to in Section 11.11 prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of all Commercial Paper issued by the Conduit Investor.

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, a Conduit Investor may, from time to time, with prior or concurrent notice to SPV, the Master Servicer and the Administrative Agent, in one transaction or a series of transactions, assign all or a portion of its Net Investment and its rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party to a Conduit Assignee. Upon and to the extent of such assignment by the Conduit Investor to a Conduit Assignee, (i) such Conduit Assignee shall be the owner of the assigned portion of the applicable Net Investment, (ii) the related administrator for such Conduit Assignee will act as the Funding Agent for such Conduit Assignee, with all corresponding rights and powers, express or implied, granted to the Related Funding Agent hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, (iii) such Conduit Assignee and its liquidity support provider(s) and credit support provider(s) and other related parties shall have the benefit of all the rights and protections provided to such Conduit Investor and its Program Support Provider(s) herein and in the other Transaction Documents (including any limitation on recourse against such Conduit Assignee or related parties, any agreement not to file or join in the filing of a petition to commence an insolvency proceeding against such Conduit Assignee, and the right to assign to another Conduit Assignee as provided in this paragraph), (iv) such Conduit Assignee shall assume all (or the assigned or assumed portion) of such Conduit Investor’s obligations, if any, hereunder or any other Transaction Document, and such Conduit Investor shall be released from such obligations, in each case to the extent of such assignment, and the obligations of such Conduit Investor and such Conduit Assignee shall be several and not joint, (v) all distributions in respect of the Net Investment shall be made to the applicable Funding Agent, on behalf of such Conduit Investor and such Conduit Assignee on a pro rata basis according to their respective interests, (vi) the definition of the term “CP Rate” with respect to the portion of the Net Investment funded with commercial paper issued by such Conduit Investor from time to time shall be determined in the manner set forth in the definition of “CP Rate” applicable to the Conduit Investor on the basis of the interest rate or discount applicable to commercial paper issued by such Conduit Assignee (rather than such Conduit Investor), (vii) the defined terms and other terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with the foregoing, and (viii) if requested by the Funding Agent with respect to the Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and deliver such further agreements and documents and take such other actions as the Funding Agent may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the foregoing. No assignment by such Conduit Investor to a Conduit Assignee of all or any portion of the Net Investment shall in any way diminish the Related Alternate Investors’ obligation under Section 2.3 to fund any Investment not funded by such Conduit Investor or such Conduit Assignee or to acquire from the Conduit Investor or such Conduit Assignee all or any portion of the Net Investment pursuant to Section 3.1.

(e) In the event that a Conduit Investor makes an assignment to a Conduit Assignee in accordance with clause (d) above, the Related Alternate Investors: (i) if requested by the applicable Funding Agent, shall terminate their participation in the applicable Program Support Agreement to the extent of such assignment, (ii) if requested by the applicable Funding Agent, shall execute (either directly or through a participation agreement, as determined by such Funding Agent) the program support agreement related to such Conduit Assignee, to the extent of such assignment, the terms of which shall be substantially similar to those of the participation or other agreement entered into by such Alternate Investor with respect to the applicable Program Support Agreement (or which shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to such Funding Agent and the Alternate Investors), (iii) if requested by such Conduit Investor, shall enter into such agreements as requested by such Conduit Investor pursuant to which they shall be obligated to provide funding to such Conduit Assignee on substantially the same terms and conditions as is provided for in this Agreement in respect of such Conduit Investor (or which agreements shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory to such Conduit Investor and the Related Alternate Investors), and (iv) shall take such actions as the Administrative Agent and the Funding Agent shall reasonably request in connection therewith.

(f) Each of the SPV, the Master Servicer and Arrow hereby agrees and consents to the assignment by a Conduit Investor from time to time of all or any part of its rights under, interest in and title to this Agreement and the Asset Interest to any Program Support Provider.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Investor may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, any Portion of Investment and any rights to payment of Yield and Fees) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Investor to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the SPV or the Administrative Agent; provided, that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release an Investor from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Investor as a party hereto.

SECTION 11.9 . Waiver of Confidentiality. Each of the SPV, the Master Servicer and Arrow hereby consents to the disclosure, solely for the purposes related to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, of any non-public information with respect to it received by the Administrative Agent, any Funding Agent, or any Investor to any other Investor or potential Investor, the Administrative Agent, any nationally recognized statistical rating organization rating a Conduit Investor’s Commercial Paper, any dealer or placement agent of or depositary for such Conduit Investor’s Commercial Paper, its administrator, any Program Support Provider or any of such Person’s counsel or accountants in relation to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

SECTION 11.10 . Confidentiality Agreement. Each of the SPV, the Master Servicer and Arrow hereby agrees that it will not disclose the contents of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other proprietary or confidential information of or with respect to any Investor, the Funding Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Program Support Provider to any other Person except (a) its auditors and attorneys, employees or financial advisors (other than any commercial bank) and any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, provided such auditors, attorneys, employees, financial advisors or rating agencies are informed of the highly confidential nature of such information, (b) to any commercial paper conduits and their related funding agents and alternate investors in connection with an Additional Commitment Amendment or (c) as otherwise required by applicable law or order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 11.12 . No Recourse Against Conduit Investors, Stockholders, Officers or Directors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligations of the Conduit Investors under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents are solely the corporate obligations of the Conduit Investors and shall be payable solely to the extent of funds received from the SPV in accordance herewith or from any party to any Transaction Document in accordance with the terms thereof in excess of funds necessary to pay matured and maturing Commercial Paper, and to the extent funds are not available to pay such obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not constitute a claim against the Conduit Investors but shall continue to accrue. Each party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim (as defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code) of any such party shall be subordinated to the payment in full of all Commercial Paper. No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Conduit Investors contained in this Agreement shall be had against any stockholder, employee, officer, director, manager, administrator, agent or incorporator of the Conduit Investors or beneficial owner of any of them, as such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of the Conduit Investors, and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to or be incurred by any stockholder, employee, officer, director, manager, administrator, agent or incorporator of the Conduit Investors or beneficial owner of any of them, as such, or any of them, under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Conduit Investors contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by the Conduit Investors of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or at equity, or by statute or constitution, of every such stockholder, employee, officer, director, manager, administrator, agent or incorporator of the Conduit Investors or beneficial owner of any of them is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and consideration for the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that this Section 11.12 shall not relieve any such stockholder, employee, officer, director, manager, agent or incorporator of the Conduit Investor or beneficial owner of any of them of any liability it might otherwise have for its own intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct. Bankers Trust Company shall have no obligation, in its capacity as program administrator for Victory Receivables Corporation or otherwise, to take any actions under the Transaction Documents if Bankers Trust Company is relieved of its obligations as program administrator for Victory Receivables Corporation.

Section 2.4 of the Agreement shall be read in its entirety as follows:

SECTION 2.4 Determination of Yield and Rate Periods

(a) Portions of Investment. The Net Investment shall be allocated to tranches (each a “Portion of Investment”) having Rate Periods and accruing Yield at the Rate Types specified and determined in accordance with this Section 2.4. At any time, each Portion of Investment shall have only one Rate Period and one Rate Type. In addition, at any time when the Net Investment is not divided into more than one portion, “Portion of Investment” means 100% of the Net Investment.

(b) Asset Interest held on behalf of Conduit Investors. (i) At all times on and after the Closing Date, but prior to the Termination Date, solely with respect to any Portion of Investment held on behalf of each Match Funding Conduit Investor at any time when such Conduit Investor funds such Portion of Investment through the issuance of Commercial Paper, the SPV may, subject to such Conduit Investor’s approval and the limitations described below, request Rate Periods and allocate a Portion of Investment to each selected Rate Period, so that the aggregate Portions of Investment allocated to outstanding Rate Periods at all times shall equal the portion of the Net Investment held on behalf of such Conduit Investors. The SPV shall give the Administrative Agent and the Funding Agent with respect to each Match Funding Conduit Investor irrevocable notice by telephone or by fax of each requested Rate Period at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Investment Date or the expiration of any then existing Rate Period, as applicable; provided, however, that each Match Funding Conduit Investor may select, in its sole discretion, any such Rate Period if (x) the SPV fails to provide such notice on a timely basis or (y) the Funding Agent with respect to such Match Funding Conduit Investor determines, in its sole discretion, that the Rate Period requested by the SPV is unavailable or for any reason commercially undesirable to such Investor; provided, further, that the SPV shall not select any Rate Period with respect to a Portion of Investment which Rate Period would have a maturity date after a Special Termination Date with respect to the related Conduit Investor if such Special Termination Date is known at the time of such selection. Each Match Funding Conduit Investor confirms that it is its intention prior to the date it ceases purchasing new Investments or Reinvestments to allocate all or substantially all of the portion of the Net Investment held on its behalf to one or more Rate Periods with respect to which the Yield applicable thereto is calculated by reference to the CP Rate; provided that each Match Funding Conduit Investor may determine, from time to time, in its sole discretion, that funding such Net Investment by means of one or more such Rate Periods is not possible or is not desirable for any reason. Each Rate Period applicable to any Portion of Investment funded by a Match Funding Conduit Investor pursuant to a Program Support Agreement shall be a period, selected by the applicable Funding Agent (which for the initial Rate Period shall not exceed five (5) Business Days, and Yield with respect thereto shall be calculated by reference to the Alternate Rate.

Schedule I-1

(ii) From time to time, for purposes of determining the Rate Periods applicable to the different portions of the Net Investment and of calculating Yield with respect thereto, the applicable Funding Agent, in consultation with the SPV and the Administrative Agent as described in Section 2.4(b)(i) above, shall allocate each Portion of Investment. From time to time the Administrative Agent shall notify the Master Servicer of the number of Portions of Investment and the Rate Type of each Portion of Investment.

(c) Asset Interest held on behalf of Alternate Investors. Unless an Alternate Investor specifies otherwise, the initial Rate Period applicable to any Portion of Investment funded by the Alternate Investors (or any of them), shall be a period of not greater than five (5) Business Days and Yield with respect thereto shall be calculated by reference to the Alternate Rate. Thereafter, unless an Alternate Investor specifies otherwise, with respect to such Portion of Investment, and with respect to any other Portion of Investment held on behalf of the Alternate Investors (or any of them), the Rate Period applicable thereto shall be determined by the SPV (or, if on or after the Termination Date, by the Administrative Agent and applicable Funding Agent) and Yield with respect thereto shall be calculated by reference to the Alternate Rate. The SPV shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice by telephone of the new requested Rate Period at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any then existing Rate Period; and

(d) Rate Definitions. As used in this Section 2.4, the following terms shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined).

“Alternate Rate” means, for any Rate Period for any Portion of Investment, an interest rate per annum equal to the sum of the Offshore Rate and the Applicable Margin for such Rate Period; provided, however, that, in the case of:

(i) with respect to any Portion of the Investment funded by a Match Funding Conduit Investor, any Rate Period of one to (and including) 14 days; or

(ii) (A) with respect to any Portion of the Investment funded by a Match Funding Conduit Investor, any Rate Period as to which the Administrative Agent does not receive notice, by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the first day of such Rate Period of the SPV’s desired duration of such Rate Period as provided by Section 2.4(b)(i), and (B) with respect to any portion of the Investment funded by a Pooled Funding Investor or an Alternate Investor, any Rate Period which commences prior to the Administrative Agent receiving at least three (3) Business Days notice thereof; or

(iii) the initial Rate Period applicable to any Portion of Investment funded by (a) an Alternate Investor or (b) a Program Support Provider under a Program Support Agreement; or

Schedule I-2

(iv) any Rate Period relating to a Portion of Investment which is less than $1,000,000,

the “Alternate Rate” for each such Rate Period shall be an interest rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect on each day of such Rate Period plus the Applicable Margin. The “Alternate Rate” for any date on or after the declaration or automatic occurrence of the Termination Date pursuant to Section 8.2 or clause (e) of the definition of “Termination Date” shall be an interest rate equal to 2.50% per annum above the Base Rate in effect on such day.

“Applicable Margin” means, on any date, (i) to the extent that the Alternate Rate is determined by reference to the Offshore Rate, the Program Fee rate (as defined in Schedule IV hereto), and (ii) to the extent that the Alternate Rate is determined by reference to the Base Rate, the rate per annum determined based upon the Rating in effect on such date by both S&P and Xxxxx’x set forth under the relevant column heading below opposite such Rating:

	Rating (S&P/Xxxxx’x)	Applicable Margin (in basis points) to the extent that the Alternate Rate is determined by reference to the Base Rate
	Greater than or equal to BBB/Baa2	125
	Greater than or equal to BBB-/Baa3	150
	Greater than or equal to BB+/Ba1	175
	Less than BB+/Ba1	200

; provided that, in the event that the Ratings of S&P and Xxxxx’x do not coincide, (i) the Applicable Margin set forth above opposite the lower of such Ratings will apply if the Ratings differ by only one level, (ii) the Applicable Margin consistent with the Rating one level above the lower Rating will apply if the ratings differ by two or more levels, and (iii), if there is no Ratings in effect, the Applicable Margin will be based on the Rating of less than BB+/Ba1.

“Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate for such day, plus 1.50% and (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent as its “prime rate”. The “prime rate” is a rate set by the Administrative Agent based upon various factors including the Administrative Agent’s costs and desired return, general economic conditions and other factors, and is used as a reference point for pricing some loans, which may be priced at, above, or below such announced rate. Any change in the prime rate announced by the Administrative Agent shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of such change.

Schedule I-3

“CP Rate” means, for any Rate Period for any Portion of Investment (a) funded by a Pooled Funding Conduit Investor, the per annum rate equivalent to the weighted average cost (as determined by the related Funding Agent and which shall include commissions of dealers and placement agents (without duplication of any Fees for such purposes pursuant to Section 2.5)), incremental carrying costs incurred with respect to Commercial Paper maturing on dates other than those on which corresponding funds are received by the Conduit Investor (and not otherwise allocable to other investments or assets of such Conduit Investor), other borrowings by the Conduit Investor (other than under any Program Support Agreement) and any other costs associated with the issuance of Commercial Paper) of or related to the issuance of Commercial Paper that are allocated, in whole or in part, by the Conduit Investor or its Funding Agent to fund or maintain such Portion of Investment (and which may be also allocated in part to the funding of other assets of the Conduit Investor), and (b) funded by a Match Funding Conduit Investor for any Rate Period (which shall be a period selected in accordance with Section 2.4(b)) for any Portion of Investment funded by the Conduit Investor issuing Commercial Paper, the rate equivalent to the rate (or if more than one rate, the weighted average of the rates) at which Commercial Paper having a term equal to such Rate Period may be sold by any placement agent or commercial paper dealer selected by the Conduit Investor (which rate shall include commissions of dealers and placement agents and incremental carrying costs incurred with respect to (i) Commercial Paper maturities and/or dealer fees that may become due and payable on dates other than those on which corresponding funds are received by such Conduit Investor, and (ii) other borrowings by such Conduit Investor with respect to the issuance of Commercial Paper), provided, however, that if the rate (or rates) as agreed between any such placement agent or dealer and the Conduit Investor is a discount rate, then the rate (or if more than one rate, the weighted average of the rates) resulting from the Conduit Investor’s converting such discount rate (or rates) to an interest-bearing equivalent rate per annum.

“Federal Funds Rate” means, for any day, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1%) equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight Federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by Federal funds brokers on such day, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the Business Day next succeeding such day; provided that (a) if such day is not a Business Day, the Federal Funds Rate for such day shall be such rate on such transactions on the next preceding Business Day as so published on the next succeeding Business Day, and (b) if no such rate is so published on such next succeeding Business Day, the Federal Funds Rate for such day shall be the weighted average rate charged to the Administrative Agent on such day on federal fund transactions.

AGREED UPON PROCEDURES

Arrow Electronics Securitization Audit Procedures

(a) Receivable Balances/Rollforward

(i) Select the current month, previous two fiscal quarter ends, the previous fiscal year end and reconcile the receivable balances and rollforward activity (i.e. sales, collections, credits, and write-offs) as represented in the Master Servicer Reports for those periods to the supporting journals, the general ledger, the monthly financial statements, and the audited consolidating financial statements (if applicable). Explain the nature of significant reconciling items. (Are any of the discrepancies timing related?)

(ii) Obtain a description of each type/category of dilutive credits not previously included in last year’s audit report.

(iii) Select 30 credit memos that were issued in the last three months and complete the following:

1. Determine the weighted average dilution horizon. (The dilution horizon is defined as the period from original invoice date to the issuance of a credit memo against that invoice.)

2. Prepare a table summarizing the weighted average dilution horizon by entity and by type of credit memo.

(b) Receivable Agings

(i) Select the current month and the previous two fiscal quarter ends and reconcile the agings as represented in the Master Servicer Reports for those periods to the applicable Originator’s detail aged balance of accounts. Note differences and explain the nature of significant reconciling items.

(ii) Reconcile the total receivables balance represented in the Master Servicer Reports for the current month, and the last two fiscal quarters, to the general ledger. If there are any material reconciling items, determine if they are being resolved appropriately and whether they have any impact on the stated amount of the Receivables.

(iii) Select 10 credit memos that were issued in the last two months due to partial payment of invoices. Test each credit memo and corresponding invoices to determine if the credit was applied correctly in accordance with the credit and collection policies and if the invoice was re-aged or continued to age from original invoice date.

Schedule V-1

(iv) Have there been any changes to the way the Master Servicer accounts for partial payments since the last audit report?

(v) Determine and include in your report the exact definition of the receivable aging policy utilized (i.e. invoice date).

(vi) Have there been any changes to the way the Master Servicer accounts for unapplied amounts since the last audit report? If so, please describe all material changes.

(vii) Have there been any changes to the Credit and Collection Policy since the last audit report? If so, please describe all material changes.

(viii) Select 30 invoices issued during the most recent month and determine if the Receivable created by each invoice was categorized correctly as eligible or ineligible in the most recent Master Servicer Report per the Agreement.

(ix) Select 25 invoices from among the various aging categories on the current month’s aged trial balance and determine if the invoices/accounts are properly aged in accordance with the terms and methodology. Note in your report any invoices/accounts that may be aged in a nonconforming manner.

(x) Prepare a listing of the 25 accounts analyzed with an indication of the aging accuracy.

(xi) Regarding the 10 largest Obligors that are +60 days from invoice, inquire as to the reasons for material past due amounts. Include this analysis as an exhibit to your report.

(xii) Obtain the sales journal from three months prior. Select 10 of these invoices and trace them the through to resolution (i.e. collection, dilution, write-off, delinquent). Prepare a listing of the invoices analyzed and include this detailed information in an exhibit to your report.

(xiii) Select 10 cash receipts from the most recent monthly cash collections report to determine if cash was applied to the correct invoices and if the paid invoices were properly removed from the aging.

(i) Select the three most recent fiscal quarter ends and reconcile the monthly write-off amounts as represented in the Master Servicer Reports to the detailed general ledger. Trace the write-off information from the monthly activity in the bad debt allowance account to the monthly write-off information shown on the receivable rollforward. Highlight and explain any differences.

Schedule V-2

(ii) Determine that the write-offs shown are the amount of write-offs actually taken, noting that write-offs may be taken against an allowance account or directly expensed.

(iii) Explain any reconciling items.

(iv) Obtain a listing of the 10 largest accounts that were written-off in the last 12 months and complete the following:

1. Ask management to provide you with the reason for the write-off and note the response.

2. Has the applicable Originator reserved for any non-delinquent or non-defaulted accounts?

3. Is there a separate account in which delinquent accounts are placed prior to eventual charge-off whereby the amounts are not reflected on the aging?

(d) Concentrations

(i) Obtain a list of the 20 largest Obligors in the portfolio and verify the accuracy of this information by tracing amounts to the summary/detailed aged receivable trial balance.

(ii) Compare the concentration information in the most recent Master Servicer Report with information contained on the applicable Originator’s general ledger for the date the report was compiled. Note any significant reconciling items. Seek an explanation from management for any significant differences, and document the responses.

(iii) Confirm that the concentrations reported were the largest concentrations at that time.

(e) Credit File Review

(i) Select 10 credit files (include in your sample large obligors, delinquent obligors, & new obligors). Test adherence to the applicable Originator’s Credit and Collection Policy, including: proper credit approval, date of financial information (Dun & Bradstreet reports, financial statements), credit references, adherence to credit limit, etc.

(ii) Determine whether the credit limit is appropriate per the Credit and Collection Policy.

Schedule V-3

(iii) Prepare a listing of the files analyzed, noting your results and the adequacy of compliance with the required terms, the reasons for delinquencies, and whether the outstanding Receivable balances are within the credit limit at the present time.

(f) Collection Methodology

(i) Confirm the listing of the Blocked Account Banks (Schedule 4.1(s) of the Agreement) in which collections are deposited.

(h) Computer Systems & Reporting

Discuss any material changes in the Master Servicer’s accounts receivable systems.

(i) Internal Audit

Inquire if internal auditors and/or credit reviewers have performed any reviews of the Credit and Collection Policy and/or receivable system during the last twelve months. If so, obtain a copy of any reports, noting in your report any that may pertain to the Receivables being purchased. If not, inquire as to when any such review would be scheduled. Discuss with the internal auditors any weaknesses they have noted pertaining to the applicable Originator’s Receivables and related areas (i.e. EDP or general ledger systems).

(j) External Auditors

(i) Discuss the results from the most recent receivable confirmation procedures, as perform in connection with the fiscal year-end financial audit. If possible, quantify the extent of the coverage and specify the type of procedures used (negative/positive confirmations, subsequent cash receipts), noting any issues.

Schedule V-4

(ii) Obtain a copy of the management letter prepared in conjunction with the most recent fiscal year-end financial audit. Note any weaknesses identified in the company’s receivable operations and/or related controls (i.e. EDP and general ledger systems). Discuss the current status of these issues with management.

7. The effective date for this Assignment shall be the later of (i) the date on which the Related Funding Agent and the Administrative Agent, receive this Assignment executed by the parties hereto and receives the consent of the Related Funding Agent, and to the extent required under the Agreement, the SPV, and (ii) the date of this Assignment (the “Effective Date”).

Amounts paid under this section shall be credited against amounts payable to the Assignee under any participation agreement entered into pursuant to the Agreement.

12. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

15. This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

March __, 2001

To the parties listed on Schedule A

annexed hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.1(m) of the Transfer and Administration Agreement dated as of March 21, 2001 (the “Agreement”) among Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, as transferor (in such capacity, the “SPV”), Arrow Electronics, Inc., individually (“Arrow”) and as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), the parties thereto as “Conduit Investors,” “Alternate Investors” and “Funding Agents,” and Bank of America, National Association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Agreement.

I have acted as counsel to Arrow, Gates/Arrow Distributing, Inc. (together with Arrow, the Applicable Originators) (in connection with the preparation of the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

I have examined, on the date hereof, the Agreement and all exhibits thereto, the First Tier Agreement and all exhibits thereto, each Originator Sale Agreement, certificates of public officials and of officers of the SPV, Arrow and the other Originators and certified copies of Arrow’s, the others Originator’s and the SPV’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws, the Board of Directors’ resolutions authorizing Arrow’s, the other Originator’s and the SPV’s participation in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, copies of each of the above having been delivered to you. I have also examined the closing documents delivered pursuant to the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement and the First Tier Agreement and copies of all such documents and records, and have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for our opinion. With respect to the accuracy of material factual matters which were not independently established, we have relied on certificates and statements of officers of Arrow, the other Originators and the SPV.

On the basis of the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

Exhibit I-1-1

27. Each of the Applicable Originators is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its respective state or jurisdiction of formation, has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, and had at all relevant times, and now has, all necessary power, authority, and legal right to acquire and own the Receivables and other Affected Assets, and is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation and is authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization.

28. Each of the Applicable Originators has the power, corporate and other, and has taken all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform the Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each in accordance with its respective terms, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. The Transaction Documents to which each of Arrow and the other Originators is a party have been duly executed and delivered by Arrow and the other Originators, as applicable, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

29. The execution, delivery and performance in accordance with their terms by each of Arrow and the other Originators of the First Tier Agreement, Originator Sale Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) require (a) any governmental approval or (b) any consent or approval of any stockholder of Arrow or any of the other Originators that has not been obtained, (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under (a) the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of Arrow or any of the other Originators, or (b) any other agreement to which Arrow or any of the other Originators is a party or by which Arrow or any of the other Originators or any of their respective properties may be bound, or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim upon any of the assets, property or revenue of Arrow or any of the other Originators other than as contemplated by the First Tier Agreement or the Originator Sale Agreement, as applicable.

30. Except as set forth in the schedules attached hereto, there are not, in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any governmental or non-governmental body, any actions, suits, proceedings, litigation or investigations, pending or to the best of our knowledge, after due inquiry, threatened, (i) against the Arrow or any of the other Originators or the business or any property of such parties except actions, suits or proceedings that, if adversely determined, would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) relating to the First Tier Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

31. None of Arrow or any other Originator is, or is controlled by, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Exhibit I-1-2

The foregoing opinions and conclusions were given only in respect of the laws of [insert state or other jurisdiction], the State of New York and, to the extent specifically referred to herein, the Federal laws of the United States of America.

To the parties listed on Schedule A

annexed hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.1(m) of the Transfer and Administration Agreement dated as of March __, 2001 (the “Agreement”) among Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, as transferor (in such capacity, the “SPV”), Arrow Electronics, Inc., individually (the “Arrow”) and as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), the parties thereto as “Conduit Investors,” “Alternate Investors” and “Funding Agents,” and Bank of America, National Association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Agreement.

We have acted as counsel to Arrow, the other Originators and the SPV in connection with the preparation of the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

We have examined, on the date hereof, the Agreement and all exhibits thereto, the First Tier Agreement and all exhibits thereto, the Originator Sale Agreement, certificates of public officials and of officers of the SPV, Arrow and the other Originators and certified copies of Arrow’s, the others Originator’s and the SPV’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws, the Board of Directors’ resolutions authorizing Arrow’s, the other Originator’s and the SPV’s participation in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, copies of each of the above having been delivered to you, copies of the financing statements on Form UCC-1 filed in the filing offices listed in Schedule I hereto executed by each Originator (other than Arrow), as debtor, in favor of Arrow, as secured party and showing the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Funding Agents (on behalf of the Conduit Investors and the Alternate Investor), as the assignee of the secured party substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Originator Financing Statements”), copies of the financing statements filed on Form UCC-1 filed in the filing offices listed in Schedule II hereto executed by Arrow, as debtor, in favor of the SPV, as secured party and showing the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Funding Agents (on behalf of the Conduit Investors and the Alternate Investors), as the assignee of the secured party, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Arrow Financing Statements”) and copies of the financing statements on Form UCC-1 filed in the filing offices listed in Schedule III hereto executed by SPV, as debtor, in favor of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Funding Agents (on behalf of the Conduit Investors and the Alternate Investors), as secured party, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “SPV Financing Statements”). We have also examined the closing documents delivered pursuant to the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement and the First Tier Agreement and copies of all such documents and records, and have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for our opinion. With respect to the accuracy of material factual matters which were not independently established, we have relied on certificates and statements of officers of Arrow, the other Originators and the SPV.

Exhibit I-2-1

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

32. The SPV is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, and had at all relevant times, and now has, all necessary power, authority, and legal right to acquire and own the Receivables and other Affected Assets, and is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation and is authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization.

33. The SPV has the power, corporate and other, and has taken all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each in accordance with its respective terms, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. The Transaction Documents to which the SPV is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the SPV and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the SPV enforceable against the SPV in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

34. The execution, delivery and performance in accordance with their terms by the SPV of the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) require (a) any governmental approval or (b) any consent or approval of any stockholder of the SPV that has not been obtained, (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under (a) the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of the SPV, (b) any other agreement to which the SPV is a party or by which the SPV or any of its properties may be bound, or (c) any Law applicable to the SPV of any court or of any Official Body having jurisdiction over the SPV or any of its properties, or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim upon any of the assets, property or revenue of the SPV other than as contemplated by the Agreement.

35. The execution, delivery and performance in accordance with their terms by each of Arrow and the other Originators of the First Tier Agreement, Originator Sale Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) require (a) any governmental approval or (b) any consent or approval of any stockholder of Arrow or any of the other Originators that has not been obtained, (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under (a) the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of Arrow or any of the other Originators, (b) any other agreement to which Arrow or any of the other Originators is a party or by which Arrow or any of the other Originators or any of their respective properties may be bound, or (c) any Law applicable to Arrow or any of the other Originators of any Official Body having jurisdiction over Arrow or any of the other Originators or any of its properties, or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim upon any of the assets, property or revenue of Arrow or any of the other Originators other than as contemplated by the First Tier Agreement or the Originator Sale Agreement, as applicable.

Exhibit I-2-2

36. Except as set forth in the schedules attached hereto, there are not, in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any governmental or non-governmental body, any actions, suits, proceedings, litigation or investigations, pending or to the best of our knowledge, after due inquiry, threatened, (i) against the SPV or the business or any property of the SPV except actions, suits or proceedings that, if adversely determined, would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) relating to the Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

37. Except as set forth in the schedules attached hereto, there are not, in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any governmental or non-governmental body, any actions, suits, proceedings, litigation or investigations, pending or to the best of our knowledge, after due inquiry, threatened, (i) against the Arrow or any of the other Originators or the business or any property of such parties except actions, suits or proceedings that, if adversely determined, would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) relating to the First Tier Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

38. The Receivables constitute “accounts” or “general intangibles” as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York.

39. The Originator Sale Agreement creates a valid and enforceable security interest (as that term is defined in Section 1-201(37) of the Uniform Commercial Code (including the conflict of laws rules thereof) (the “UCC”) as in effect in New York (the “New York UCC”) and [insert reference to applicable jurisdiction], under Article 9 of the New York UCC [and under similar provisions of applicable jurisdiction] (“Originator Sale Security Interest”) in favor of the SPV in the Receivables and other Affected Assets and the proceeds thereof (except that the First Tier Security Interest will attach to any Receivable created after the date hereof only when the Originator possesses rights in such Receivable). The internal laws of [insert state or other jurisdiction] govern the perfection by the filing of financing statements of the Originator Sale Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof. The Originator Financing Statement(s) have been filed in the filing office(s) located in [insert state or other jurisdiction] listed in Schedule I hereto, which [is] [are] the only office(s) in which filings are required under the [insert state or other jurisdiction] UCC to perfect the Originator Sale Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof, and accordingly the Originator Sale Security Interest in each Receivable and the proceeds thereof will, on the date of the initial transfer under the First Tier Agreement, be perfected under Article 9 of the [insert state or other jurisdiction] UCC. All filing fees and all taxes required to be paid as a condition to or upon the filing of the Originator Financing Statement(s) in [insert state or other jurisdiction] have been paid in full. As of the date hereof, there were no (i) UCC financing statements naming the Originators as debtor, originator or assignor and covering any Receivables or other Affected Assets or any interest therein or (ii) notices of the filing of any federal tax lien (filed pursuant to Section 6323 of the Internal Revenue Code) or lien of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (filed pursuant to Section 4068 of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act) covering any Receivable or other Affected Asset or any interest therein. The filing of the Originator Financing Statements in the filing offices listed in Schedule I will create a first priority security interest in each Receivable. Such perfection and priority will continue, provided that appropriate continuation statements are timely filed where and when required under the UCC.

Exhibit I-2-3

40. The First Tier Agreement creates a valid and enforceable security interest (as that term is defined in Section 1-201(37) of the Uniform Commercial Code (including the conflict of laws rules thereof) (the “UCC”) as in effect in New York (the “New York UCC”) under Article 9 of the New York UCC (“First Tier Security Interest”) in favor of the SPV in the Receivables and other Affected Assets and the proceeds thereof (except that the First Tier Security Interest will attach to any Receivable created after the date hereof only when Arrow possesses rights in such Receivable). The internal laws of New York govern the perfection by the filing of financing statements of the First Tier Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof. The Arrow Financing Statement(s) have been filed in the filing office(s) located in [insert jurisdictions] listed in Schedule II hereto, which are the only office(s) in which filings are required under the New York UCC to perfect the First Tier Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof, and accordingly the First Tier Security Interest in each Receivable and the proceeds thereof will, on the date of the initial transfer under the First Tier Agreement, be perfected under Article 9 of the New York UCC. All filing fees and all taxes required to be paid as a condition to or upon the filing of the Arrow Financing Statement(s) in New York have been paid in full. As of the date hereof, there were no (i) UCC financing statements naming Arrow as debtor, originator or assignor and covering any Receivables or other Affected Assets or any interest therein or (ii) notices of the filing of any federal tax lien (filed pursuant to Section 6323 of the Internal Revenue Code) or lien of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (filed pursuant to Section 4068 of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act) covering any Receivable or other Affected Asset or any interest therein. The filing of the Originator Financing Statement(s) in the filing offices listed in Schedule II will create a first priority security interest in each Receivable. Such perfection and priority will continue, provided that appropriate continuation statements are timely filed where and when required under the UCC.

41. The Agreement creates a valid and enforceable security interest (as that term is defined in Section 1-201(37) of the New York UCC, under Article 9 of the New York UCC (“Second Tier Security Interest”) in favor of the Agent in each Receivable and other Affected Assets (except that the Second Tier Security Interest will attach only when the SPV possesses rights in such Receivable). The internal laws of New York govern the perfection by the filing of financing statements of the Second Tier Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof. The SPV Financing Statement(s) have been filed in the filing office(s) located in [insert state or other jurisdiction] listed in Schedule II hereto, which are the only office(s) in which filings are required under the UCC to perfect the Second Tier Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof, and accordingly the Second Tier Security Interest in each Receivable and the proceeds thereof will, on the date of the initial transfer under the Agreement, be perfected under Article 9 of the New York UCC. All filing fees and all taxes required to be paid as a condition to or upon the filing of the SPV Financing Statement(s) in New York have been paid in full. As of the date hereof, there were no (i) UCC financing statements naming SPV as debtor, originator or assignor and covering any Receivables or other Affected Assets or any interest therein or (ii) notices of the filing of any federal tax lien (filed pursuant to Section 6323 of the Internal Revenue Code) or lien of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (filed pursuant to Section 4068 of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act) covering any Receivable or other Affected Assets or any interest therein. The filing of the SPV Financing Statement(s) in the filing offices listed in Schedule III will create a first priority security interest in each Receivable. Such perfection and priority will continue, provided that appropriate continuation statements are timely filed where and when required under the UCC.

Exhibit I-2-4

42. The SPV is not, and is not controlled by, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In giving the opinions in paragraphs 8, 9 and 10, we have assumed that Arrow’s, each of the Originator’s and the SPV’s chief executive office will continue to be located in [insert state or other jurisdiction]. The conclusions expressed in paragraphs 8, 9 and 10 are subject to the accuracy of the personnel in the filing offices referred to above with regard to the filing, indexing and recording of financing statements and notices of Adverse Claim, and to the correctness of reports to us by [____________], who performed the searches of such records and who made the filings on behalf of Arrow, the Originators and the SPV in [insert state or other jurisdiction].

In giving the opinions set forth in paragraphs 8, 9 and 10, we have assumed that all filings as appropriate in the event of a change in the name, identity or corporate structure of the debtor (or the Originator or assignor) named in any financing statements and all continuation statements necessary under the UCC to maintain the perfection of the Originator Sale Agreement, First Tier Security Interest and the Second Tier Security Interest in the Receivables and the proceeds thereof will be duly and timely filed. In giving such opinions, we also do not express any opinion as to (a) transactions excluded from Article 9 of the UCC by virtue of Section 9-104 of the UCC, (b) any security interest in proceeds except to the extent that the validity and perfection of any interest in proceeds (as such term is defined under the UCC) thereof that is covered by the Originator Financing Statements or the SPV Financing Statements or any duly filed financing statement referred to above may be permitted by Section 9-306 of the UCC, and (c) any security interest that is terminated or released.

Exhibit I-3

Form of Opinion of Davies, Ward, Xxxxxxxx & Vineberg LLP, Canadian Counsel to Arrow Electronics Canada Ltd.

March __, 2001

To:	Arrow Electronics, Inc.;

Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation;

Each of the Investors and Funding Agents (listed in Schedule 1 annexed hereto) party to the Transfer and Administration Agreement dated as of March 20, 2001 among Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, Arrow Electronics, Inc., the parties thereto as “Conduit Investors,” “Alternate Investors” and “Funding Agents,” and Bank of America, National Association, as administrative agent;

Bank of America, National Association, as Administrative Agent for such Investors and Funding Agents;

Xxxxx'x Investors Service, Inc.; and

Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx Companies, Inc.).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as Quebec and Ontario counsel to Arrow Electronics Canada Ltd. (“Arrow Canada”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Originator Sale Agreement dated as of March 20, 2001 (the “Originator Sale Agreement”), between Arrow Canada, as Seller, and Arrow Electronics, Inc. (“Arrow”), as Buyer. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Originator Sale Agreement.

We have examined the following documents:

a)	the Originator Sale Agreement;

Exhibit I-3-1

b)	the certificate of an officer of Arrow Canada (the “Officer’s Certificate”), a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule 2;

c)	certified copies of Arrow Canada’s certificate of amalgamation and by-laws; and

d)	directors’ resolutions authorizing Arrow Canada’s participation in the transactions contemplated by the Originator Sale Agreement.

We have made such investigations of law as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for our opinion. With respect to the accuracy of factual matters upon which the opinions expressed herein are based, we have relied solely on the Officer’s Certificate.

For the purposes of the opinion expressed herein, we have assumed the genuineness of the signatures of all parties and that the Originator Sale Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Arrow and constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the parties thereto, enforceable against them according to its terms. We have also assumed that under the laws of the State of New York (“New York”) on the date hereof, to the extent applicable, the provisions of the Originator Sale Agreement are sufficient to effect and do effect a valid sale, assignment and transfer to Arrow of the Seller Affected Assets and we have assumed that the terms of the Originator Sale Agreement will be interpreted and understood under the laws of New York to have the same meaning, content and effect as they would have under the laws of the Province of Ontario. We express no opinion as to the effect of provisions which may be implied by New York law. We have also assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or facsimiles thereof and the authenticity of the originals of such certified or photostatic copies or facsimiles.

The opinions expressed herein are given only in respect of the laws of the Province of Ontario (“Ontario”) and the laws of Canada applicable therein (“Ontario Law”) and, with respect to the opinion expressed in paragraphs 4 and 5, the laws of the Province of Quebec (“Quebec”) and the laws of Canada applicable therein (“Quebec Law”). Accordingly, we express no opinions as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, and the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

I: GENERAL OPINIONS

43. Arrow Canada is a corporation duly amalgamated and validly existing under the laws of Canada, and has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted. Arrow Canada has all necessary power, authority, and capacity to acquire and own the Seller Affected Assets.

44. Arrow Canada has all necessary corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Originator Sale Agreement.

45. The execution, delivery, and performance in accordance with its terms by Arrow Canada of the Originator Sale Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) require any governmental approval under Ontario Law or (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the articles of amalgamation or the by-laws of Arrow Canada or Ontario Law;

Exhibit I-3-2

46. Under Ontario Law and Quebec Law, no registration, recording or filing is required in any public office of record in Ontario or Quebec, in connection with the Originator Sale Agreement, other than the filing of a financing statement pursuant to the Personal Property Security Act (Ontario) (“PPSA”) and the filing of a registration pursuant to the Civil Code of Quebec (“CCQ”). A financing statement with respect to the Originator Sale Agreement was filed under the PPSA for a registration period of 10 years on March 15, 2001 as registration no. 20010135 1651 9065 8595 and file number 870652206. Provided that the rights of Arrow under the Originator Sale Agreement are duly registered in the Register of Personal and Movable Real Rights (the “RPMRR”) pursuant to article 1642 of the CCQ, such rights will have been duly registered in such places in Quebec as are currently necessary to render such rights under the Obligator Sale Agreement enforceable as against Obligors and Creditors (as defined below). No opinion is expressed herein with respect to the need to amend or renew such filings in the future.

47. We have conducted or caused to be conducted searches against Arrow Canada and against the names of its predecessors in title listed in Schedule 3, under the statutes and at the offices of public record set out in Schedule 3, the results of which searches were current in each case only to the respective times on the respective dates set out in Schedule 3. Such statutes and public offices are the only statutes and public offices where, under Ontario Law and Quebec Law, transfers of interests in accounts receivable would ordinarily or customarily be the subject of a recording, filing or registration in order to create, validate, preserve, perfect or protect such transfers with respect to each of the corporations named in Schedule 3. Such searches disclosed no security interests registered or recorded which might affect the Seller Affected Assets, except as set out in Schedule 3.

In giving the opinions in paragraphs 46 and 47 above, we have assumed that Arrow Canada’s chief executive office is located in Ontario. The conclusions expressed in paragraphs 46 and 47 are subject to the accuracy of the personnel in the filing offices referred to above with regard to the filing, indexing and recording of registrations, financing statements and notices of Adverse Claim.

48. In any proceeding brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Ontario for the enforcement of the Originator Sale Agreement, the laws of New York would, to the extent specifically pleaded and proven as a fact by expert evidence, be applied by such court, in accordance with the choice of the laws of New York as the governing law of the Originator Sale Agreement, to all issues which under the conflict of laws rules of the Province of Ontario are to be determined in accordance with the proper or governing law of a contract, except that in any such proceeding such court:

a)	will apply those laws of the Province of Ontario which such court would characterize as procedural and will not apply those laws of New York which such court would characterize as procedural;

b)	will not apply those laws of New York which such court would characterize as revenue, expropriatory, penal or similar laws; and

c)	will not apply those laws of New York the application of which would be inconsistent with public policy, as such term is interpreted under Ontario Law.

Exhibit I-3-3

49. The courts of the Province of Ontario would give a judgment in Canadian dollars based upon a final and conclusive in personam judgment for a sum certain, obtained in a New York court against Arrow Canada with respect to a claim pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement in accordance with the submission by Arrow Canada to the jurisdiction of the court of New York without reconsideration of the merits, if:

a)	such judgment was:

i)	not obtained by fraud, or in any manner contrary to the principles of natural justice;

ii)	not for a claim in respect of any laws of New York or of any other jurisdiction other than the Province of Ontario which a court of the Province of Ontario would characterize as revenue, expropriatory, penal or similar laws;

iii)

not contrary to public policy, as such term is interpreted under Ontario Law, or contrary to any order made by the Attorney General of Canada under the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act (Canada) or by the Competition Tribunal under the Competition Act (Canada) in respect of certain judgments referred to therein; and

iv)	not impeachable as void or voidable under New York law;

b)	there has been compliance with the Limitations Act (Ontario) which has the effect that any action to enforce a foreign judgment must be commenced within six years of the date of the foreign judgment; and

c)	no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is discovered prior to the rendering of judgment by an Ontario court.

II: TAX OPINIONS

We have also been asked to consider whether, under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”), any amounts paid by an Obligor of any Unpaid Balance on the Seller Receivables to Arrow would be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax.

Our opinions expressed in this section are based, in part, upon our opinions expressed above and are subject to the foregoing assumptions. In addition, for the purposes of our opinions expressed in this section, we have assumed that, as at the date of the initial purchase and as of the date of each subsequent purchase under the Originator Sale Agreement,

(a)	the Seller Receivables do not bear any stated interest;

(b)	the Unpaid Balance of the Seller Receivables is not in excess of the fair market value of the products or services provided by Arrow Canada to the Obligor (at the time the Seller Receivables arose) to which the Unpaid Balance of the Seller Receivables relates;

(c)	Arrow Canada and the relevant Obligors are resident in Canada, and Arrow is not resident in Canada, each for the purposes of the Tax Act;

(d)	Arrow Canada and Arrow are related persons for the purposes of the Tax Act; and

(e)	each of the terms of the Originator Sale Agreement (including the calculation of the Discount Percentage) are the same terms (and calculation) as would be the case if Arrow Canada and Arrow dealt with each other at arm’s length for the purposes of the Tax Act.

In our opinion, no amount will be required to be deducted or withheld under Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) from the payment of any Unpaid Balance on the Seller Receivables by the Obligor to, or for the benefit of, Arrow or any other beneficial owner of the Seller Receivables that is not resident in Canada for the purposes of the Tax Act and who subsequently acquires such interest from Arrow.

Exhibit I-3-4

Furthermore, in our opinion, neither Arrow, the SPV, nor any of the Investors will, by virtue only of the transactions effected by the Originator Sale Agreement, be deemed to be a resident of Canada or carrying on business in Canada for the purposes of the Tax Act.

III. QUALIFICATIONS

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following further qualifications:

(a)	the enforceability of any provision of the Originator Sale Agreement may be limited by insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent preferences and conveyances, assignments and preferences, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally;

(b)

equitable remedies, including, without limitation, specific performance and injunction, may be granted only in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction; in addition, a court might not allow a creditor to exercise rights to accelerate the performance of obligations or otherwise seek enforcement of the Originator Sale Agreement based upon the occurrence of a default deemed immaterial, may require that discretionary powers afforded to a party be exercised reasonably and in good faith or may decline to accept the factual or legal determinations of a party notwithstanding that a contract or instrument provides that the determination of that party shall be conclusive;

(c)	the enforceability of any provision of the Originator Sale Agreement exculpating a party from a liability or duty otherwise owed by it to another or waiving legal and equitable defences may be limited by law;

(d)	the costs of or incidental to proceedings authorized to be taken in court or before a judge are in the discretion of the court or judge and the court or judge has the full power to determine by whom and to what extent such costs shall be paid;

(e)	the enforceability of rights of indemnity or contribution provided in the Originator Sale Agreement may be limited by law;

(f)	the enforceability of the Originator Sale Agreement with respect to property forming part of the Seller Affected Assets to which the laws of Ontario apply, as against subsequent purchasers from Arrow Canada, is subject to the qualification that:

(i)	a subsequent purchaser of chattel paper (as defined in the PPSA) which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets who takes possession of the chattel paper in the ordinary course of business, gives value and who does not know of Arrow’s ownership interest therein at the time of taking possession;

(ii)	a subsequent purchaser of an instrument (as defined in the PPSA) which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets who takes possession of such collateral, gives value and who does not know of Arrow’s ownership interest therein at the time of taking possession;

Exhibit I-3-5

(iii)

a subsequent purchaser of a security (as defined in the PPSA) which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets who purchases in good faith and takes possession of such collateral, or a subsequent purchaser of such collateral who purchases in the ordinary course of business, takes possession of such collateral and does not know that the purchase constitutes a breach of the Originator Sale Agreement;

(iv)	a holder in due course of a xxxx, note or cheque which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets;

(v)	a loss payee or additional insured party under any policy of insurance which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets; and

(vi)	a transferee from Arrow Canada of money which forms part of the Seller Affected Assets may acquire an interest therein in priority to Arrow’s interest therein;

(g)

under the laws of Ontario, an Obligor may pay Arrow Canada until such Obligor receives notice, reasonably identifying the relevant rights, that the account or chattel paper has been assigned to Arrow, and, if requested by such Obligor, Arrow has furnished proof within a reasonable time that the assignment has been made, and, if Arrow does not do so, such Obligor may pay Arrow Canada;

(h)

under the laws of Quebec, an Obligor or the surety or guarantor of an Obligor (each also being, for the purposes of this paragraph only, an “Obligor”) may pay Arrow Canada until either (i) such Obligor has acquiesced in the assignment; (ii) such Obligor has received a copy or a pertinent extract of the Originator Sale Agreement or any other evidence of the assignment which may be set up against Arrow Canada; or (iii) if the relevant Obligor cannot be found in Quebec, a notice of assignment has been published in a newspaper distributed in the locality of the last known address of such Obligor or, if he carries on an enterprise, in the locality where its principal establishment is situated;

(i)

in the event that any part of the Seller Affected Assets in Quebec constitutes a claim attested by a bearer instrument, as defined at article 1647 of the CCQ, the Obligor who issued it is bound to pay the debt attested thereby to any bearer who hands over the instrument to him, except where he has received notice of a judgment ordering him to withhold payment thereof; a person who has been unlawfully dispossessed of a bearer instrument forming part of the Seller Affected Assets may not prevent the Obligor who issued it from paying the claim to the person who presents the instrument except on notification of an order of a court;

(j)	to the extent that any part of the Seller Affected Assets constitutes corporeal movable property in Quebec, a subsequent purchaser thereof in good faith who is first given possession of the property is vested with the ownership thereof, even though his title may be later in time than that of Arrow;

(k)	to the extent that any part of the Seller Affected Assets constitutes corporeal movable property in Quebec, a possessor in good faith thereof acquires the ownership thereof after three years running from the dispossession of the owner.

Exhibit I-3-6

(l)	under the laws of Quebec, the assignment of a right resulting from a contract of insurance may not be set up against the insurer, the beneficiary, or third persons until the insurer receives notice thereof;

(m)	under the laws of Quebec, an Obligor may set up against Arrow Canada or Arrow any payment made in good faith by himself or his surety to an apparent creditor, even if the Obligor or his surety has received evidence of the assignment;

(n)	no opinion is expressed regarding the existence of, or the right, title or interest of Arrow Canada to, any of the Seller Affected Assets;

(o)

to the extent, if any, that the Originator Sale Agreement purports to assign any Crown debts (as defined in the Financial Administration Act (Canada), no steps have been taken to provide the notices or obtain the acknowledgements provided for in Part VII of that Act. An assignment of Crown debts not complying with that Act is ineffective as between the assignor and the assignee and as against the Crown and, therefore, there will not be a valid assignment of any such Crown debts unless that Act is complied with;

(p)	Arrow’s interest may not be enforceable in respect of proceeds of the Seller Affected Assets which are not identifiable or traceable as assets of Arrow; and

(q)

to the extent that the interest of Arrow in and to the Seller Affected Assets constitutes security interests in chattel paper, accounts, claims or the proceeds thereof, such security interest may be subordinate to (i) the interest of a person who is the beneficiary of a deemed trust arising under the Employment Standards Act (Ontario) or under the Pension Benefits Act (Ontario) and (ii) the interest of a claimant under non-consensual, unregistered liens, hypothecs, trusts and claims created or imposed by statute or rule of law.

IV: BANKRUPTCY OPINIONS

You have also asked us to consider whether under Ontario Law, creditors of Arrow Canada, subsequent purchasers of the Seller Affected Assets, or a trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, receiver-manager or liquidator of Arrow Canada (collectively, “Creditors”) could look successfully to the Seller Affected Assets to satisfy a claim against Arrow Canada after the sale, assignment and transfer of the Seller Affected Assets by Arrow Canada to Arrow pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement.

For the purposes hereof, “Insolvency Statutes” means the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), the Assignments and Preferences Act (Ontario) and the Fraudulent Conveyances Act (Ontario).

For the purposes of the opinions expressed in this Section IV, we have assumed that, on the Closing Date and on the date of each sale of Seller Affected Assets pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement:

(i)	Arrow Canada is not insolvent, in insolvent circumstances or on the eve of or in contemplation of insolvency or unable to meet its debts, as applicable, within the meaning of any of the Insolvency Statutes;

(ii)

Arrow Canada will not become insolvent or be put in insolvent circumstances or become unable to meet its debts, as applicable, within the meaning of any of the Insolvency Statutes by the entering into of, or immediately after completion of the transactions contemplated by, the Originator Sale Agreement;

Exhibit I-3-7

(iii)

Arrow Canada has not received a notice that the Seller Affected Assets are the subject of a seizure by a sheriff or otherwise or the subject of a garnishment, charging or equitable execution order or notice that a trustee in bankruptcy has an interest therein;

(iv)

Arrow Canada has entered into the Originator Sale Agreement in good faith for the purpose of selling the Seller Affected Assets to, and assigning and transferring all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Seller Affected Assets to Arrow and receiving from Arrow the consideration therefor specified in the Originator Sale Agreement, and not for the purpose of injuring, obstructing, impeding, defeating, hindering, delaying, defrauding or oppressing the rights and claims of Creditors or others against Arrow Canada, providing payment or security for payment to Arrow or for any other purpose relating in any way to the claims of Creditors or others against Arrow Canada;

(v)	the consideration paid and to be paid by Arrow for the Seller Affected Assets pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement represents approximately the present fair market value of the Seller Affected Assets;

(vi)	Arrow Canada is not a party to any agreement with Arrow whereby Arrow would be legally responsible for the obligations of Arrow Canada; and

(vii)

Arrow Canada has not granted any security interests in the Seller Affected Assets and the Seller Affected Assets are not subject to any non-consensual unregistered liens, trusts or claims created or imposed by statute or rule of law.

Creditors may assert their rights only against assets in which Arrow Canada has a beneficial ownership interest, subject to the provisions of the Insolvency Statutes discussed below which, in our opinion, are not applicable. In our opinion, to the extent that Ontario Law applies to the sale of the Seller Affected Assets, the Originator Sale Agreement is effective to validly transfer to Arrow all of Arrow Canada’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Seller Affected Assets on the date of the initial sale thereunder and thereafter, the form and content of the Originator Sale Agreement is sufficient to transfer to Arrow all of Arrow Canada’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Seller Affected Assets (other than those subject to the initial sale) when such assets are created or acquired by Arrow Canada. Arrow Canada has not and will not, pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement, retain any beneficial interest in the Seller Affected Assets. Accordingly, in a bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of Arrow Canada, the Seller Affected Assets would not form part of the property of Arrow Canada within the meaning of any applicable Insolvency Statute. Arrow is a separate legal entity from Arrow Canada which, absent any agreement to the contrary, would not be legally responsible for the obligations of Arrow Canada. As such, Creditors could not look successfully to the Seller Affected Assets to satisfy a claim which they may have against Arrow Canada, whether before or after a bankruptcy or insolvency of Arrow Canada, or in any other proceeding instituted by or against Arrow Canada under the Insolvency Statutes, in that the sale by Arrow Canada to Arrow of the Seller Affected Assets will be recognized as a sale in any such proceeding, subject to the provisions of the Insolvency Statutes discussed below which, based on the assumption noted above, are not applicable; provided, however, that if the Collections become commingled with the assets of Arrow Canada, such that they are not identifiable as property of Arrow, Arrow may not be successful in reclaiming its property by way of a trust claim or a proprietary claim under the applicable Insolvency Statute.

Exhibit I-3-8

However, in the case of amounts payable under the Seller Affected Assets which have not been collected, (i) the enforcement of Arrow’s rights to such payments may be affected by a stay in respect of Arrow Canada under the applicable Insolvency Statute until a court of competent jurisdiction has determined the issue of whether the transactions contemplated by the Originator Sale Agreement constitute an effective sale of the Seller Affected Assets by Arrow Canada to Arrow, (ii) the costs associated with collecting the Seller Affected Assets during such stay could be charged against such Seller Affected Assets in priority to Arrow’s interest therein, (iii) the terms of such stay may preclude the termination of Arrow Canada as Sub-Servicer under the Originator Sale Agreement or the notification of the relevant Obligors of such sale by the terms of such stay, and (iv) Arrow may be required to notify the relevant Obligors of such sale and take proceedings against Arrow Canada or others who obtain payment or possession of such Seller Affected Assets or who are alleging a right to such payment or possession.

You have also asked us to consider whether the sale of the Seller Affected Assets pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement could be overridden or set aside by a court upon the application of Creditors pursuant to the Insolvency Statutes. Pursuant to the provisions of the Insolvency Statutes, to the extent relevant, certain transactions may be overridden or set aside in circumstances therein specified, as follows:

(i)	a transaction entered into by an insolvent debtor with the intention of giving any of its creditors a preference over its other creditors;

(ii)	a transfer of property made with the intention of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors or others of their claims against the transferor; and

(iii)

a settlement of property where the settlor subsequently becomes bankrupt.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the assumptions expressed herein, we are of the opinion that the sale of the Seller Affected Assets pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreement would not be overridden or set aside by a court upon the application of a Creditor pursuant to any of the Insolvency Statutes.

Very truly yours,

Exhibit I-3-9

Exhibit I-4

Form of Opinion of Counsel to SBM and Support Net, Inc.

March 21, 2001

To the parties listed on Schedule A

annexed hereto

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8.1(q) of the Transfer and Administration Agreement dated as of March 21, 2001 (the “Agreement”) among Arrow Electronics Funding Corporation, as transferor (in such capacity, the “SPV”), Arrow Electronics, Inc., individually (the “Arrow”) and as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”), the parties thereto as “Conduit Investors,” “Alternate Investors” and “Funding Agents,” and Bank of America, National Association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Agreement.

We have acted as counsel to [SBM] and [Support Net, Inc.] (the “Applicable Originators) with the preparation of the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreements to which the Applicable Originators are a party, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

We have examined, on the date hereof, the Agreement and all exhibits thereto, the First Tier Agreement and all exhibits thereto, the Originator Sale Agreements, certificates of public officials and of officers of the Applicable Originators and certified copies of the Applicable Originators’ certificate of incorporation, by-laws, the Board of Directors’ resolutions authorizing the Applicable Originators’ participation in the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreements to which the Applicable Originators are a party, the First Tier Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, copies of each of the above having been delivered to you. We have also examined the closing documents delivered pursuant to the Agreement, the Originator Sale Agreements to which the Applicable Originators are a party and the First Tier Agreement and copies of all such documents and records, and have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for our opinion. With respect to the accuracy of material factual matters which were not independently established, we have relied on certificates and statements of officers the Applicable Originators.

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

Exhibit I-4-1

50. Each of the Applicable Originators is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its respective state or jurisdiction of formation, has the corporate power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted, and had at all relevant times, and now has, all necessary power, authority, and legal right to acquire and own the Receivables and other Affected Assets, and is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation and is authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization.

51. Each of the Applicable Originators has the power, corporate and other, and has taken all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform the Originator Sale Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each in accordance with its respective terms, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby. The Transaction Documents to which each of the Applicable Originators is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the Applicable Originators, and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each such party, enforceable against such party in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

52. The execution, delivery and performance in accordance with their terms by each of the Applicable Originators of the Originator Sale Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (i) require any consent or approval of any stockholder of either of the Applicable Originators that has not been obtained, (ii) violate or conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under the certificate of incorporation or the by-laws of either of the Applicable Originators.

This opinion has been delivered at your request for the purposes contemplated by the Agreement. Without our prior written consent, this opinion is not to be utilized or quoted for any other purpose and no one other than you is entitled to rely thereon; provided, that any Alternate Investor, any Program Support Provider and any placement agent or dealer of any Conduit Investor’s commercial paper may rely on this opinion as of it were addressed to them.

Very truly yours,

Exhibit I-4-2
