AMENDED AND RESTATED LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of October 21, 2002, between XEROX LEASE FUNDING LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”), and GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as lender (“Lender”).

RECITALS

These Recitals shall be construed as part of this Agreement.

A. Borrower and Lender are parties to a Loan Agreement dated as of November 20, 2001 (as amended to the date hereof, the “Existing Loan Agreement”).

B. Pursuant to the terms of the Existing Loan Agreement, Lender has made the Existing Term Loans (as defined below) to Borrower.

C. Pursuant to the Framework Agreement (as defined below), Borrower has agreed to provide Lender the first opportunity to make loans against certain Financing Contracts (as defined below) on the terms and conditions set forth in the Program Agreement (as defined below) and Lender has agreed, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make such loans.

D. Borrower has requested that Lender amend and restate the Existing Loan Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) to amend the terms and conditions of the Existing Term Loans and (ii) in order to effect the agreements referred to in Recital C above, to make Additional Incremental Term Loans (as defined below) to Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding for all such Additional Incremental Term Loans at any time outstanding, the Maximum Amount (as defined below).

E. Borrower and Lender do not intend that this Agreement constitute a novation of the Existing Term Loans or any of the Obligations (as defined below) under the Existing Loan Agreement or evidence any repayment of such Existing Term Loans or Obligations, but that this Agreement only amend and restate in its entirety the Existing Loan Agreement and provide for Additional Incremental Terms Loans as set forth herein.

F. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A, and, for purposes of this Agreement, the rules of construction set forth in Annex A shall govern. All Appendices hereto, or expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement, shall constitute but a single agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT

1.1. Credit Facilities.

(a) Existing Term Loan Facility. Schedule 1.1(a)(i) sets forth the original principal amount of the Term Loans heretofore made by Lender to Borrower under the Existing Loan Agreement (each, an “Existing Term Loan” and collectively the “Existing Term Loans”), each of which is evidenced by the corresponding promissory note in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(ii) or 1.1(a)(iii) of the Existing Loan Agreement (each an “Existing Term Note” and collectively, the “Existing Term Notes”). From and after the Effective Date, the Existing Term Loans shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Additional Incremental Term Loan Facility. Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make loans (each an “Additional Incremental Term Loan”) to Borrower, on each Incremental Closing Date during the period from the Effective Date until a Termination Event shall have occurred, in a principal amount equal to the Funding Amount for such Additional Incremental Term Loan; provided, in no event shall Lender be obligated to make any Additional Incremental Term Loan hereunder if the then aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Additional Incremental Term Loans, together with the principal amount of the proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan, would exceed the Maximum Amount. All Additional Incremental Term Loans shall be evidenced by one promissory note in the form of Exhibit 1.1(b) (the “Additional Term Note” and collectively with the Existing Term Notes, the “Notes”).

(i) Additional Incremental Term Loans shall be made only on an Incremental Closing Date unless otherwise agreed by Lender.

(ii) Not later than the fifth (5th) Business Day of each calendar month, Borrower shall deliver (or cause Portfolio Servicer to deliver) to Lender a Data Certification for a proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan.

(iii) Upon Lender’s receipt of a Data Certification, Lender shall have five (5) Business Days in which to review such Data Certification and deliver to Borrower an Exception Notice or Acceptance Notice. If Lender determines that (a) any of the components or calculations contained in or delivered in connection with such Data Certification are erroneous, inaccurate or incomplete or (b) in Lender’s reasonable judgment any of the components or calculations contained in or delivered in connection with such Data Certification would cause any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.4 and 2.5 not to be satisfied, then in either such case Lender shall give the Borrower and the Portfolio Servicer notice thereof (which may, at Lender’s option, be telephonic or written, an “Exception Notice”), specifying in reasonable detail, to the extent known to Lender and practicable, the nature of such errors, inaccuracies, omissions and/or other matters with a view to assisting Borrower in identifying the actions, if any, required to cure the same. If Lender does not have a basis to deliver an Exception Notice, then Lender shall deliver to Borrower written notice of its acceptance thereof (an “Acceptance Notice”); provided that if Lender has not completed its determination as to whether it has a basis to deliver an Exception Notice, then prior to issuing an Acceptance Notice Lender shall be entitled to request (either telephonically or in writing) a five (5) Business Day extension of the time frame in which Lender must deliver either an Exception Notice or Acceptance Notice, and Borrower agrees not to unreasonably withhold its consent (which may be oral or written) to any such extension requested by Lender. If Lender fails to deliver either an Exception Notice or Acceptance Notice on or prior to the fifth Business Day (or if such time period is extended pursuant to the foregoing sentence, tenth Business Day) after Lender’s receipt of a Data Certification, then such Data Certification shall be deemed rejected by Lender. Nothing in this Section 1.1(c)(iii) shall limit Borrower’s right to submit a subsequent Data Certification with respect to Financing Contracts covered by a Data Certification deemed rejected pursuant to the preceding sentence. Except as required to be disclosed in an Exception Notice, Lender’s failure to identify any (or each and every) error, inaccuracy or omission in an Exception Notice, or in connection with Lender’s acceptance of a Data Certification, shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Related Transaction Document.

(iv) If Lender gives Borrower an Exception Notice, Borrower shall (or shall cause Portfolio Servicer to) correct the previously delivered Data Certification with respect to the matters identified in such Exception Notice and submit a modified Data Certification to Lender as soon as practicable, but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after Borrower’s receipt of such Exception Notice, whereupon the process set forth in subsections (ii) and (iii) and this subsection (iv) shall be repeated until Lender accepts the Data Certification pursuant to an Acceptance

Notice. Such corrections shall include, without limitation, (x) deleting Financing Contracts from such Data Certification, but only if any matters identified with respect to such Financing Contracts cannot be cured after Borrower’s (or Xerox’s) use of commercially reasonable efforts to cure such matters without deleting such Financing Contracts and (y) in the case of correcting any potential failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (d), (e) or (v) of Section 2.4, as applicable, deleting Financing Contracts from such Data Certification such that after giving effect to such deletions the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (d), (e) or (v) of Section 2.4, as applicable, will be satisfied. In connection with the correction of any Data Certification, Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the principal amount of the proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan to which such Data Certification relates.

(v) Within two (2) Business Days after Lender has accepted a particular Data Certification Borrower shall, subject to Section 1.1(d), deliver to Lender a Borrowing Request (each such date of delivery, a “Borrowing Request Delivery Date”), based on such accepted Data Certification specifying an Incremental Closing Date which is three (3) Business Days after the date of delivery of such Borrowing Request.

(vi) If Borrower determines that any condition precedent set forth in (A) Section 2.4 will not be satisfied as of the relevant Borrowing Request Delivery Date or (B) Section 2.5 will not be satisfied as of the relevant Incremental Closing Date, then, in either case, concurrently with Borrower’s delivery of a Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 1.1(c)(v), Borrower shall deliver to Lender a written request for a waiver of such condition(s) precedent specifying in reasonable detail the event(s) or circumstance(s) giving rise to the non-satisfaction of such condition(s) precedent (a “Waiver Request”).

(vii) If Borrower delivers a Waiver Request to Lender in accordance with the terms set forth above, then Borrower shall not be liable for any charges and assessments referred to in Section 1.1(c)(ix) in respect of the related Borrowing Request. If Lender grants the relief set forth in the Waiver Request (or such other relief as may be agreed to in writing by Borrower and Lender) then (A) the Incremental Closing Date specified in such Borrowing Request shall be automatically extended to the third Business Day after Lender grants such relief; (B) the Borrowing Request Delivery Date (including, without limitation, for purposes of Section 2.4) shall be deemed to be the date Lender grants such relief; and (C) all representations, warranties and certifications in the related Borrowing Request shall be deemed made as of such new Borrowing Request Delivery Date. If Lender does not grant the waivers set forth in the Waiver Request (or other relief as may be agreed to in writing by Borrower and Lender) on or prior to the proposed Incremental Closing Date set forth in the related Borrowing Request, then such Borrowing Request shall be deemed terminated as of such proposed Incremental Closing Date; provided that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the Program Agreement, (x) Lender shall not be deemed to forfeit its rights under the Program Agreement with respect to the Candidate Financing Contracts covered by such Borrowing Request, (y) Lender shall not be released of its obligations to make Term Loans relating to such Candidate Financing Contracts if included in subsequent Data Certifications in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Sections 2.4 and 2.5) and (z) Borrower shall be entitled and obligated to include such Candidate Financing Contracts in any subsequent Incremental Data Certification and related Borrowing Request submitted by Borrower under this Section 1.1.

(viii) Upon satisfaction of all of the conditions set forth above and in Sections 2.4 and 2.5, as applicable, Lender shall make the Additional Incremental Term Loan specified in such Borrowing Request in a principal amount equal to the Funding Amount for such Additional Incremental Term Loan.

(ix) Except as set forth in Section 1.1(c)(vii), once executed and delivered a Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable by Borrower. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.4, Borrower shall compensate Lender for any and all charges or

assessments imposed by Lender on its Vendor Financial Services operating business as a result of the failure of a proposed Term Loan to be funded on the date specified therefor in an irrevocable Borrowing Request related thereto for any reason (other than as a result of a wrongful refusal by Lender, in violation of the terms of this Agreement, to make the Term Loan in accordance with the terms hereof); provided that Borrower’s liability for such charges or assessments shall not exceed the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan specified in the Borrowing Request relating thereto (with such interest to be calculated at the proposed Discount Rate specified in the Borrowing Request relating to such proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan) during the period from and including the date of the proposed Incremental Closing Date for such proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan as specified in the related Borrowing Request to but excluding the next Business Day occurring after such proposed Incremental Closing Date. Furthermore, Borrower shall not be liable for any such charges or assessments unless Lender makes a demand therefor within ten (10) Business Days after the proposed Incremental Closing Date that describes the calculation and amount of such assessments.

(d) Minimum Funding Amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Borrower shall not be obligated to submit any Borrowing Request with respect to any Incremental Data Certification unless the principal amount of the proposed Additional Incremental Term Loan is at least $10,000,000; and (ii) Lender shall not be obligated to make any Additional Incremental Term Loan unless the principal amount thereof is at least $2,500,000. If Borrower or Lender exercise their rights under this Section 1.1(d), Borrower shall not be excused from its obligation to deliver the related Data Certification as provided in Section 1.1(c)(ii) and all Financing Contracts covered by such Data Certification must be included in the next Data Certification required to be submitted by Borrower pursuant to Section 1.1(c)(ii).

(e) Excluded Financing Contracts. If Lender waives one or more elements of the definition of Excluded Financing Contract with respect to any Candidate Financing Contract, Lender shall be deemed to have also waived any breach of the representations, warranties and covenants as to such Candidate Financing Contract made in any Related Transaction Document, to the extent (and solely to the extent) such breach is based on the existence of the element so waived. A waiver of any such element, representation, warranty or covenant as to any particular Candidate Financing Contract shall not be deemed a waiver of any other element or a waiver with respect to any other Candidate Financing Contract.

(f) Reliance on Certifications and Requests. Lender shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Borrowing Request or Data Certification purporting to be executed by an Authorized Officer of Borrower and believed by Lender to be genuine. Lender may assume that each Person purporting to be an Authorized Officer of Borrower executing and delivering such a request was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for Lender has actual knowledge to the contrary.

1.2. Use of Proceeds.

(a) Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Existing Term Loans (net of the proceeds otherwise required to be applied pursuant to Sections 1.3(b) and 1.4(b)) solely to finance the payments required to be made by Borrower to Xerox pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Sale and Contribution Agreement in respect of the Tier I Transfers made on the applicable Closing Date.

(b) Borrower shall use the proceeds of each Additional Incremental Term Loan solely to make the payments required to be made by Borrower to Xerox pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Sale and Contribution Agreement in respect of the Tier I Transfers made on the Closing Date of such Additional Incremental Term Loan.

1.3. Cash Management System

(a) Establishment and Maintenance of Accounts.

(i) Payment Account and Related Accounts. On or before the Initial Closing Date, each of the Lockboxes, Lockbox Deposit Accounts, Lockbox Concentration Account and the Payment Account shall have been established in accordance with the terms of the Lockbox Account Agreement (as in effect on the Initial Closing Date) and Payment Account Agreement (as in effect on the Initial Closing Date), as applicable, and the Collateral Agent shall have legal title to each of the Lockboxes, Lockbox Deposit Accounts, Lockbox Concentration Account and the Payment Account for the benefit of the Beneficial Owners (as of the Initial Closing Date), and each such agreement shall be in full force and effect.

(ii) GE Capital Control Account. On or before the Initial Closing Date, Borrower shall have established an account with Citibank, N.A. in the name of Borrower (the “GE Capital Control Account”) under account number 795253 and with respect to which Lender has sole dominion and control and a perfected, first priority security interest therein and the funds on deposit therein pursuant to the Deposit Account Control Agreement (as in effect on the Initial Closing Date).

(iii) Other Monetization Accounts. On or before the Initial Closing Date, each of the Monetization Accounts and the Controlled Accounts (other than the GE Capital Control Account) shall have been established in accordance with the terms of the Allocation Agreement.

(b) Funding of the Holdback Account. (1) On the Initial Closing Date, pursuant to the letter of direction delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1(l) of the Existing Loan Agreement, Lender caused $75 million of the proceeds of the Initial Term Loan to be deposited in the Holdback Account.

(ii) On the first Incremental Closing Date, pursuant to the letter of direction delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(i) of the Existing Loan Agreement, Lender caused $40 million of the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loan to be deposited in the Holdback Account.

(iii) On the second Incremental Closing Date, pursuant to the letter of direction delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(i) of the Existing Loan Agreement, Lender caused $35 million of the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loan to be deposited in the Holdback Account.

(c) Return of Funds in the Controlled Accounts. On the Termination Date, Lender shall cause all funds then on deposit in the Controlled Accounts (other than any funds necessary to pay third party service and supply providers through the Termination Date, or, if later, through the earlier to occur of (X) the date at which Lender may terminate the contract(s) with such third party service or supply providers without penalty and (Y) the date which is one (1) year following the Termination Date) to be transferred to the MPE 1 Account.

1.4. Interest, Fees and Principal

(a) Interest Rate. Interest shall accrue on each outstanding Term Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Discount Rate specified in the Initial Borrowing Request or Incremental Borrowing Request, as applicable, related thereto.

(b) Fees. (i) Borrower has paid to Lender on the Initial Closing Date a non-refundable origination fee equal to 0.65% of the amount of the Initial Term Loan made by Lender.

(ii) Borrower has paid to Lender on each Incremental Closing Date occurring prior to the Effective Date, a non-refundable origination fee equal to (a) 0.65% of the amount of the Term Loan made by Lender on such Closing Date minus (b) the sum of the Fee Credit Amounts (calculated as of the Tagging Date relating to the relevant Replacement Financing Contracts) for all Replacement Financing Contracts listed on the Statement of Cash Flows for such Incremental Closing Date and which were acquired by Borrower from Xerox on such Incremental Closing Date.

(c) Application of Monthly Aggregate Payment Amount. With respect to each outstanding Term Loan, on each Actual Application Date, Lender shall cause the Monthly Aggregate Payment Amount to be applied or distributed from the GE Capital Control Account as follows:

(i) if, as of such Actual Application Date, no Turbo Event shall have occurred and be continuing:

first, to all accrued and unpaid interest on such Term Loan for the Applicable Interest Period (and any prior Applicable Interest Period(s));

second, to the outstanding principal balance of such Term Loan to the extent necessary to reduce the outstanding principal balance thereof to the corresponding Targeted Principal Balance for such Term Loan as of the immediately preceding Determination Date (after giving effect to any adjustment to such Targeted Principal Balance based on the information contained in the related Settlement Report);

third, to all accrued and unpaid interest on each other Term Loan;

fourth, to the outstanding principal balance of each other Term Loan to the extent necessary to reduce the outstanding principal balance thereof to the corresponding Targeted Principal Balance for such Term Loan as of the immediately preceding Determination Date (after giving effect to any adjustment to such Targeted Principal Balance based on the information contained in the related Settlement Report); and

fifth, to the MPE 1 Account;

provided, however, if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any category of Obligation described in the third or fourth clauses above, the available funds being applied to such Obligations shall be allocated to the payment of such Obligations on a Term Loan-by-Term Loan basis, beginning with the oldest outstanding Term Loan and continuing thereafter in chronological order of the outstanding Term Loans, based on the date on which each Term Loan was advanced.

(ii) if, as of such Actual Application Date, a Turbo Event shall have occurred and be continuing, then first as set forth in clauses first through fourth of subclause (i) above, and thereafter:

first, to the remaining outstanding principal balance of all outstanding Term Loans until each such Term Loan has been paid in full;

second, to any other Obligations then due and owing; and

third, to the MPE 1 Account;

provided, however, if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any category of Obligation described in the first clause above, the available funds being applied to any such Obligations shall be allocated to the payment of such Obligations on a Term Loan-by-Term Loan basis, beginning with the oldest outstanding Term Loan and continuing thereafter in chronological order of the outstanding Term Loans, based on the date on which each Term Loan was advanced; and provided further if Lender affirmatively waives in writing the failure of Borrower to have satisfied any condition precedent set forth in Sections 2.4 or 2.5 which failure also constitutes a Turbo Event, such Turbo Event shall be deemed, for purposes of this Section 1.4(c), to cease to be continuing.

(d) Computation of Interest. All computations of interest shall be made by Lender on the basis of a 365/366-day year, as applicable, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the Applicable Interest Period for which such interest is payable. For purposes of computing interest on the Obligations as of any date, no deposits to the GE Capital Control Account shall be deemed received by Lender until applied in accordance with Section 1.4(c).

(e) Acceptance of Settlement Report. The acceptance by Lender of the Settlement Report after the Settlement Date to which it relates shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Lender of any failure by Borrower to perform any provision of this Agreement or any Default or Event of Default arising from such failure or otherwise related to the delivery of such Settlement Report.

(f) Maximum Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.4, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “maximum lawful rate”), then so long as the maximum lawful rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the maximum lawful rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the maximum lawful rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the maximum lawful rate until such time as the total interest received by Lender is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the applicable Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in Sections 1.4(a) through (e), unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the maximum lawful rate, and at that time this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the maximum lawful rate. If the maximum lawful rate is calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the maximum lawful rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. If, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 1.4(f), a court of competent jurisdiction shall finally determine that Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the maximum lawful rate, Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess in the order specified in Section 1.4(c) and thereafter shall refund any excess to Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

1.5. Loan Account and Accounting.

Lender shall maintain a loan account (the “loan account”) on its books to record the borrowing of the Initial Term Loan and any borrowing of an Incremental Term Loan, all payments made by or on behalf of Borrower and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the loan account shall be made in accordance with Lender’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the loan account, as recorded on Lender’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent manifest error and subject to each of Borrower’s and Lender’s rights under the Allocation Agreement to receive Misapplied Proceeds and/or Misdirected Contract Payments which may affect the balance reflected in the loan account, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing by Borrower under this Agreement; provided, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations.

1.6. Indemnity.

(a) Borrower’s Indemnification. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Damages which may be suffered or incurred by any such Indemnified Person resulting from, arising out of, based on or relating to (i) credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement (including by reason of Borrower’s failure to satisfy any condition to lending set forth in Article II hereof) and the other Loan Documents, the administration of such credit and/or the enforcement of Lender’s rights and remedies under the Related Transaction Documents (except that Borrower shall not be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any indemnified liabilities result from that Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or violation of law) and (ii) any representations, warranties,

covenants and/or obligations set forth in any Related Transaction Document (other than those made by Lender) which have been breached or are otherwise unfulfilled, incorrect, untrue, misleading or inaccurate (as applicable).

(b) Lender’s Indemnification. Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all Damages which may be suffered or incurred by such Indemnified Person resulting from, arising out of, based on or relating to, any breach of Lender’s warranties set forth in Section 3A.1 or Lender’s breach of contract arising from (i) any failure by Lender to perform its contractual obligations hereunder (except that Lender shall not be liable for any indemnification to any Indemnified Person to the extent that any indemnified liabilities result from that Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or violation of law) and (ii) any representations, warranties, covenants and/or obligations set forth in any Related Transaction Document (other than those made by any Transaction Party) which have been breached or are otherwise unfulfilled, incorrect, untrue misleading or inaccurate (as applicable).

(c) GENERAL LIMITATION. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

1.7 Taxes.

(a) Tax Forms. Lender shall provide Borrower with a completed IRS Form W-9 (or other applicable IRS forms) and all required renewals thereof (or any successor forms).

(b) Gross-Up. Any and all payments made or deemed made by Borrower hereunder or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with this Section 1.7, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under the Notes, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.7) Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Other Taxes. Borrower shall be obligated to pay any stamp or documentary Taxes or any other excise Taxes arising from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Term Loans or Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

(d) Borrower Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify and, within ten (10) days of demand therefor, pay Lender for the full amount of Taxes paid by Lender on or with respect to this Agreement or the Notes, or with respect to any payment hereunder or under the Notes, and any liability (excluding penalties and additions to Taxes imposed solely as a result of Lender’s willful misconduct, negligence or violation of law) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. If Lender receives a refund of all or any part of indemnified Taxes paid by Borrower, Lender shall promptly pay Borrower the amount of such refund.

(e) Withholding Tax Liability. In the event that Lender assigns all or any portion of the Term Loans or grants a participation therein, Lender shall be the paying agent and “withholding agent” (within the meaning of section 1.1441-7 of the Treasury regulations) with respect to any such assignment or

participation (and, in addition, shall be responsible for any related federal information reporting). Lender shall indemnify and, within ten (10) days of demand therefor, pay Borrower for the full amount of any and all federal withholding taxes (including interest, penalties and additions to taxes) for which Borrower is liable as the “withholding agent” (within the meaning of section 1.1441-7 of the Treasury regulations) with respect to payments made on (i) any participation in the Term Loans granted by Lender or (ii) Term Loans that have been assigned by Lender.

(f) Tax Receipts. As soon as reasonably practicable after the payment of any indemnified Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably available to Borrower and satisfactory to Lender.

(g) After-Tax Basis. All payments under Section 1.7(d) or (e) shall be made on an “after-tax” basis, by increasing the amount of any payment as necessary so that after payment of all Taxes imposed on such payment the recipient receives an amount equal to the same it would have received had no Taxes been payable thereon.

(h) Assignees and Participants. The provisions and indemnity of this Section 1.7 do not apply to any Taxes, or any liability with respect thereto, which may be incurred by any successor, assignee (including without limitation any foreign branch, division or Affiliate of Lender) or participant of Lender to the extent the indemnity payable hereunder is greater than the amount that would have resulted if such successor, assignee or participant were GE Capital, a U.S. corporation.

(i) Notice/Contest. If Lender receives notice of a claim for Taxes the liability for which is imposed on Borrower pursuant to this Section 1.7, Lender shall provide prompt notice of such claim and shall contest, upon the request of and at the sole expense of Borrower, such claim for Taxes (but only if such contest may be made in good faith). Lender will not settle the subject claim without the prior written consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless and to the extent Lender waives its right to payment of the amount owing by Borrower under this Section 1.7.

(j) Tax Treatment. Borrower and Lender agree, for federal and state income tax purposes, to treat the Term Loans as debt of Borrower and not to treat Lender as the owner of any Collateral or Equipment which is subject to a lease agreement (and not as entitled to any depreciation thereon). Neither Borrower nor Lender shall take any position for federal or state income tax purposes contrary to the foregoing (whether on its tax returns or otherwise) unless required to do so by a taxing authority.

1.8. Single Loan.

All Term Loans to Borrower and all of the other Obligations of Borrower arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured, until the Termination Date, by all of the Collateral.

1.9. Earnings on Funds in Controlled Accounts.

The funds on deposit in each Controlled Account shall be invested in one or more Specified Investments; provided, that Lender shall not be liable for any loss of principal or income on such funds due to the choice of Specified Investments or any conversion of invested funds into cash when such funds are required to be released or applied to any obligation under a Related Transaction Document. No interest or other amounts earned on funds on deposit shall constitute Collateral. All interest or other amounts earned on funds in the Controlled Accounts shall be payable to Borrower and reported as

such for income tax purposes. On each Actual Application Date, prior to the application of funds in the GE Capital Control Account in accordance with Section 1.4(c), Lender shall cause all interest income (net of losses) actually earned on the funds on deposit in each Controlled Account (as determined by Portfolio Servicer and specified on the related Settlement Report) to be distributed to the MPE 1 Account.

1.10. Service Provider Preparation of Certain Documents.

Borrower hereby agrees that notwithstanding the fact that after the JV Operational Date, the JV will initially prepare the Incremental Data File and Statement of Cash Flows for Term Loans made after such date, Borrower is and continues to be responsible for the accuracy of each Incremental Data File, Statement of Cash Flows and the Incremental Data Certification and calculations, analyses, any notices or certifications related to any and all Term Loans (and each other component thereof) and any representation or warranty contained herein or in any other Loan Document relating thereto. Borrower hereby waives as a defense to any inaccuracy of any portion of any such Incremental Data File, Statement of Cash Flows, the Incremental Data Certification related thereto and calculations, analyses, any notices or certifications, or any representation or warranty contained herein or any other Loan Document with respect thereto, that such information was initially prepared by the JV. Nothing in this Section 1.10 shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of Borrower’s rights or remedies against the JV under or pursuant to any Related Transaction Document.

All of the issued and outstanding Stock of Borrower is directly owned legally and beneficially by Xerox, and such Stock is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and is not subject to any Lien. There are no outstanding rights to purchase, options, warrants or similar rights or agreements pursuant to which Borrower may be required to issue, sell, repurchase or redeem any of its Stock or other equity securities.

Borrower does not have any Subsidiaries other than MPE 2. Borrower has no investments other than Specified Investments and the Stock of MPE 2.

3.7. Government Regulation.

Borrower is not an “investment company” or an “affiliated person” of, or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. Borrower is not subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, or any other federal or state statute that restricts or limits its ability to incur Indebtedness or to perform its obligations hereunder. The making of the Term Loans by Lender to Borrower, the application of the proceeds thereof and repayment thereof and the consummation of the Related Transactions do not violate any provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

3.8. Margin Regulations.

Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). Borrower does not own any Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Term Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement have been used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Term Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.

3.9. Charges.

All tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by Borrower have been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and all Charges have been paid prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment thereof (or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss has been paid), excluding Charges or other amounts being contested in accordance with Section 5.2(b). If any Tax return filed by Borrower has been or is currently being audited by any applicable Governmental Authority, there are no material assessments currently outstanding or threatened material assessments in connection with such audited Tax returns. Borrower has not executed or filed with any Governmental Authority any agreement or other document extending, or having the effect of extending, the period for assessment or collection of any Charges. Borrower is not liable for any Charges: (a) under any agreement (including any tax sharing agreements) or (b) to its knowledge, as a transferee.

3.10. ERISA.

(a) Borrower does not sponsor or contribute to any “employee benefit plan” as such term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither Xerox nor any ERISA Affiliate has failed to make any contribution or pay any amount due as required by either Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA or the terms of any Title IV Plan except to the extent the failure to make such contribution or pay such amount would not (i) subject Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate (other than Borrower) to any liability, in excess of $1,000,000, singly or in the aggregate or (ii) subject Borrower to a lien described in Section 412(n) of the IRC. To Borrower’s knowledge, neither Xerox nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a “prohibited transaction”, as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the IRC, in connection with any Plan of such ERISA Affiliate, that could subject Borrower or such ERISA Affiliate to a material tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the IRC.

(b) Except as set forth in Disclosure Schedule (3.10) or where the failure of any of the following to be true would not give rise to (A) a funding obligation required by Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 of ERISA that Xerox or any of its ERISA Affiliates (other than Borrower) fails to timely pay, or a termination liability under Title IV of ERISA that Xerox or any of its ERISA Affiliates (other than Borrower) fails to timely pay, in either case, in excess of $1,000,000, singly or in the aggregate, or (B) a lien described in Section 412(n) of the IRC against Borrower’s assets: (i) no Title IV Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (ii) no ERISA Event or event described in Section 4062(e) of ERISA with respect to any Title IV Plan has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (iii) neither Xerox nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from a Multiemployer Plan maintained by Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate; (iv) within the last five (5) years no Title IV Plan of Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate has been terminated, whether or not in a “standard termination” as that term is used in Section 4041(b)(1) of ERISA, nor has any Title IV Plan of Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at any time within the last five (5) years) with Unfunded Pension Liabilities been transferred outside of the “controlled group” (within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(14) of ERISA) of Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate (determined at such time); and (v) except in the case of any ESOP, Stock of Xerox and all ERISA Affiliates makes up, in the aggregate, no more than ten percent (10%) of the fair market value of the assets of any Title IV Plan maintained by Xerox or any ERISA Affiliate measured on the basis of fair market value as of the latest valuation date of any such Plan.

3.11. No Litigation; Agent for Service of Process.

No Litigation is now pending or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against any Transaction Party (a) that challenges any Transaction Party’s right or power to enter into or perform any of its obligations under the Related Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or the validity or enforceability of any Related Transaction Document or any action taken thereunder, (b) that seeks to prevent the consummation of the Related Transactions on an Incremental Closing Date or (c) that relates to or affects any of the Candidate Financing Contracts or related Transferred Assets. As of the Initial Closing Date there was, and as of the Effective Date there is, no Litigation pending or, to Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against Borrower. CSC Corporation is Borrower’s agent for service of process in the State of New York.

3.12. Brokers.

Except for Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, which was retained by Xerox in connection with transactions relating to Related Transactions occurring prior to the Effective Date only, no broker or finder brought about the obtaining, making or closing of the Related Transactions, and neither Borrower nor any Affiliate thereof (other than Xerox) has any obligation to any Person, including Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith.

3.13. Full Disclosure.

To the knowledge of an Authorized Officer of Borrower, after due inquiry, no material information contained in this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the other Related Transaction Documents, or any collateral reports or other written reports from time to time delivered hereunder or any written statement furnished by or on behalf of Borrower to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement contains or will contain any material misstatement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in any material respect in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

Each of the Controlled Accounts is free and clear of any Lien (other than the Lien in favor of Lender).

3.17. Bulk Sales.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Related Transaction Documents do not require compliance with any “bulk sales” law by Borrower or any other Transaction Party.

3.18. Business.

Since its formation, Borrower has conducted no business other than (i) the acquisition of Transferred Assets from Xerox under the Sale and Contribution Agreement, (ii) the contribution of the Equipment, Sales Tax Payments and Uplift Payments to MPE 2 under the Contribution Agreement, (iii) the execution and delivery of the Related Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby (including the borrowing of the Term Loans) and (iv) such other activities as are incidental to each of the foregoing.

3.19. Consideration for Transferred Assets.

(a) Borrower shall have given reasonably equivalent value to Xerox in consideration for each Tier I Transfer and no such transfer shall have been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by Borrower to Xerox. The purchases by and contributions to Borrower constitute valid and true sales and transfers for consideration (and not merely a pledge of the Transferred Assets for security purposes), and shall be effective protection against any claim by a creditor of Xerox to the Transferred Assets and no such Transferred Assets shall constitute property of Xerox.

(b) MPE 2 shall have given reasonably equivalent value to Borrower in consideration for the transfers made to it pursuant to the Contribution Agreement and no such transfer shall have been for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by MPE 2 to Borrower. The contributions to MPE 2 constitute valid and true sales and transfers for consideration (and not merely a pledge of the assets subject to each Equipment and Tax Payment Transfer for security purposes), and shall be effective protection against any claim by a creditor of Borrower to such assets and no such assets shall constitute property of Borrower.

3.20. Separate Existence.

Borrower is operated as an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of Xerox and MPE 2, and Borrower acknowledges that Lender is entering into the Loan Documents in reliance upon Borrower’s identity as a separate legal entity from each of Xerox and MPE 2. From and after the date of its formation, Borrower has been and will be operated in such a manner as to comply with (a) the provisions of its constituent documents and (b) the Separateness Agreement.

3.21. Tier I Transfer.

The Sale and Contribution Agreement is the only agreement pursuant to which Borrower purchases or acquires Transferred Assets or any other assets. Borrower has furnished to Lender true, correct and complete copies of each Related Transaction Document to which Borrower is a party, each of which is in full force and effect. Neither Borrower nor any other Transaction Party is in default of any of its obligations under the Related Transaction Documents. Upon the purchase by or contribution to Borrower of each Financing Contract under the Sale and Contribution Agreement and prior to giving effect to any Equipment and Tax Payment Transfer, Borrower shall be the lawful owner of, and have good title to, the Transferred Assets, free and clear of any Liens (except for Permitted Encumbrances). All Transferred Assets are purchased without recourse to Xerox except as described in the Sale and Contribution Agreement.

3.22. Equipment and Tax Payment Transfer.

The Contribution Agreement is the only agreement pursuant to which Borrower transfers the Equipment, Sales Tax Payments and Uplift Payments or any other assets to MPE 2.

All Equipment, Sales Tax Payments and Uplift Payments are transferred without recourse to Borrower except as described in the Contribution Agreement.

3.23. Borrower’s Tax Election.

Borrower has not made any election to be treated as a corporation and, consequently, it will be treated as a disregarded entity for United States federal income tax purposes.
