Section 1.1 Purchase of Receivables.

 

(a) Effective on the date hereof, in consideration for the Second Step Purchase Price and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, SunGard Financing hereby sells, assigns, transfers, sets over and otherwise conveys to SunGard Funding II, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided herein), and SunGard Funding II does hereby purchase from SunGard Financing, all of its right, title and interest in and to all of the Assets and the SunGard Financing Related Security existing as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date hereof and all of the Assets and SunGard Financing Related Security thereafter arising through and including the Amortization Date. In accordance with the preceding sentence, on the date hereof SunGard Funding II shall acquire all of SunGard Financing’s right, title and interest in and to all of the Assets and the SunGard Financing Related Security existing as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date hereof and thereafter arising through and including the Amortization Date; provided, that, SunGard Funding II shall pay the Second Step Purchase Price therefor in accordance with Section 1.2.

 

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables included in the Assets made hereunder shall constitute a “sale of accounts” (as such term is used in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code), which sale is absolute and irrevocable and provides SunGard Funding II with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables. The sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to SunGard Financing; provided, however, that (i) SunGard Financing shall be liable to SunGard Funding II for all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Sellers under the First Step Agreement and by SunGard Financing hereunder, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by SunGard Funding II or any assignee thereof of any obligation of any Seller, SunGard Financing or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts, the Seller Related Security and/or the SunGard Financing Related Security or any other obligations of Sellers or SunGard Financing. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of such Receivables rather than loans secured thereby, SunGard Financing will, on or prior to the date hereof and in accordance with Section 4.1(h), (x) indicate clearly and unambiguously in its computer files that all Receivables have been or will be conveyed to SunGard Funding II pursuant to this Agreement and (y) note in its accounting records that the Receivables have been sold to SunGard Funding II. Upon the request of SunGard Funding II, the Transferor will execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain the perfection of SunGard Funding II’s ownership interest in the Assets and SunGard Financing Related Security, or as SunGard Funding II may reasonably request.

(ii) if on any Settlement Date, the Aggregate Second Step Purchase Price for the related Adjusted Monthly Period minus the aggregate amount of Second Step Purchase Price Credits for such Adjusted Monthly Period (such difference, the “Modified Aggregate Second Step Purchase Price”) exceeds the amount of cash payments received by SunGard Financing as provided herein for such Adjusted Monthly Period (such amount, the “Cash Payments”), SunGard Financing shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the extent it has not already done so, record such excess as an increase in the principal amount outstanding under the Second Step Intercompany Note (subject to the limitation set forth in Section 1.8(c)), and if any excess remains after giving effect to the permissible increase in the principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note, SunGard Financing may declare the Amortization Date to have occurred by delivering notice to that effect to SunGard Funding II and the Administrative Agent; and

 

(iii) if on any Settlement Date, the Cash Payments for the related Adjusted Monthly Period exceed the Modified Aggregate Second Step Purchase Price for such Adjusted Monthly Period, SunGard Financing shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, record the application of that excess, (x) first, to the payment of any unpaid and accrued interest on the Second Step Intercompany Note, (y) second, as a reduction in the principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note, and, (z) third, to the payment of any remaining excess to SunGard Funding II.

 

Section 1.5 Transfer of Records.

 

(a) In connection with the Purchase of Receivables hereunder, SunGard Financing hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to SunGard Funding II all of SunGard Financing’s right and title to and interest in the Records relating to all Receivables sold hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the Purchase. In connection with such transfer, SunGard Financing hereby grants to SunGard Funding II an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by SunGard Financing to account for the Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by SunGard Financing or is owned by others and used by SunGard Financing under license agreements with respect thereto, provided that should the consent of any licensor of SunGard Financing to such grant of the license described herein be required, SunGard Financing hereby agrees that upon the request of SunGard Funding II, SunGard Financing will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

 

(b) SunGard Financing (i) shall take such action requested by SunGard Funding II, from time to time hereafter, that may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that SunGard Funding II have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records (and is able to grant a perfected first priority security interest) relating to the Receivables purchased from SunGard Financing hereunder, and (ii) shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that SunGard Funding II, the Administrative Agent and the Collection Agent each has an enforceable right (whether by license or sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used to account for the Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

 

Section 1.6 Characterization. This agreement constitutes a “security agreement” as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code that the parties intend provides for the “security interest” of a buyer of accounts under the Uniform Commercial Code. If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.1(b), any sale by SunGard Financing to SunGard Funding II of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a loan by SunGard Financing to SunGard Funding II and not a true sale of accounts or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement in respect of such loan under the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law. SunGard Financing hereby grants to SunGard Funding II a security interest in all of SunGard Financing’s right, title and interest in, to and under all Assets existing and hereafter arising and all Records with respect thereto, and all proceeds of the foregoing, and the SunGard Financing Related Security to secure such loan, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens. After the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event, SunGard Funding II and its assigns shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies specified in this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured party after default in a transaction which is a sale of accounts under the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

 

Section 1.7 No Repurchase. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein, SunGard Financing shall not have any right or obligation under this Agreement, by implication or otherwise, to repurchase from SunGard Funding II any Receivables or to rescind or otherwise retroactively affect any Purchase of any Receivable after it is sold to SunGard Funding II hereunder.

 

Section 1.8 Second Step Intercompany Note.

 

(a) On the date of the initial Purchase, SunGard Funding II shall issue to SunGard Financing, for its account, a note substantially in the form of Exhibit I (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Second Step Intercompany Note”). The aggregate principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note at any

time shall be equal to the difference between (i) the aggregate principal amount on the issuance thereof and each addition to the principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note with respect to SunGard Financing pursuant to the terms of Section 1.2(c)(iii) and Section 1.4 as of such time, minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all payments made in respect of the principal of the Second Step Intercompany Note as of such time. All payments made in respect of the Second Step Intercompany Note shall be allocated, first, to pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and second, to pay the outstanding principal amount thereof. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time from and including the date of issuance to but excluding the day on which it is paid in full and shall, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and thereof, be paid (x) on each Settlement Date with respect to the principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note outstanding from time to time during the Adjusted Monthly Period immediately preceding such Settlement Date (but only to the extent SunGard Funding II has funds available to make such payment) and (y) on the maturity date thereof; provided, however, that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, accrued interest on the Second Step Intercompany Note which is not so paid shall be added to the principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note. Principal of the Second Step Intercompany Note not paid or prepaid pursuant to the terms thereof shall be payable on the maturity date thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payments to be made by SunGard Funding II in respect of the Second Step Intercompany Note shall be made solely from funds available to SunGard Funding II that are not otherwise required to be applied or set-aside for the payment of any obligations of SunGard Funding II under the Second Step Agreement, shall be non-recourse and shall not constitute a claim against SunGard Funding II to the extent that insufficient funds exist to make such payment.

 

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, SunGard Funding II may not make any payment of any Second Step Purchase Price on any Purchase Date by increasing the aggregate principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note outstanding unless the aggregate principal amount of the Second Step Intercompany Note outstanding on such Purchase Date (after giving effect to all repayments thereof on or before such Purchase Date) would not exceed 25% of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Receivables on such Purchase Date.
