PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1. Purchase Facility.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the conditions set forth in Article IV:

(i) From time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date, Seller may sell Receivable Interests to the Purchaser Groups by delivering to the Co-Agents not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to the proposed Purchase Date an irrevocable written notice in the form set forth as Exhibit II-A hereto (a “Purchase Notice”) in accordance with Section 1.2; and

(ii) Upon receipt of a Purchase Notice: (A) Xxxxx, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase the Xxxxx Group’s Percentage of the Receivable Interest described in such Purchase Notice, and (B) each Conduit Purchaser may purchase its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the Receivable Interest described in such Purchase Notice, and in the event such Conduit Purchaser elects not to make such purchase, the Committed Purchaser in its Purchaser Group, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase such Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the Receivable Interest described in such Purchase Notice;

provided that (1) at no time may the aggregate Capital of any Purchaser at any one time outstanding exceed the lesser of (x) the amount of such Purchaser’s Commitment hereunder, and (y) such Purchaser’s Percentage of the Investment Base, (2) in no event shall the Aggregate Capital outstanding hereunder exceed the lesser of (x) the Facility Limit, and (y) the Investment Base, and (3) in no event may the aggregate Receivable Interests exceed 100%. Each Committed Purchaser’s several Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Facility Termination Date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a commitment of any Conduit Purchaser to issue Commercial Paper.

(b) Seller may, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Co-Agents, terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, ratably amongst the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective Percentages, the unused portion of the Facility Limit; provided that each partial reduction of the Facility Limit shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 per Purchaser Group.

Section 1.2. Increases. If, on any Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date, there is Investment Availability, Seller may request an Incremental Purchase in accordance with this Section 1.2. Seller shall provide the Co-Agents with a Purchase Notice by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to each such Incremental Purchase. Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 4.2 hereof and shall (a) be prepared in accordance with the most recent Settlement Report, (b) be irrevocable, and (c) specify the requested Purchase Price (which shall be at least $1,000,000 per Purchaser Group) and the Purchase Date (which shall be a Business Day). Upon receipt of a Purchase Notice, the Co-Agent for each Purchaser Group which includes a Conduit Purchaser shall determine whether such Conduit Purchaser will fund such Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the requested Incremental Purchase through the issuance of Commercial Paper or whether the Committed Purchaser

in its Purchaser Group will fund instead. On the date of each Incremental Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV, the applicable Purchaser in each Purchaser Group shall initiate a wire transfer to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), in an amount equal to its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the Purchase Price of the Receivable Interest then being purchased. Seller agrees that funds wired to the Facility Account in accordance with this Section shall constitute value given to Seller.

Section 1.3. Reductions.

(a) Seller shall ensure that the Receivable Interests at no time exceed 100% in the aggregate. If the aggregate Receivable Interests exceed 100% or the Aggregate Capital exceeds the Facility Limit, within two (2) Business Days thereafter, Seller shall pay to each of the Co-Agents, for distribution to the applicable Purchaser(s) in its Purchaser Group, such Purchaser Group’s Percentage of an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Capital, such that after giving effect to such payment, the aggregate of the Receivable Interests equals or is less than 100% and the Aggregate Capital is less than or equal to the Facility Limit.

(b) If, on any Business Day, the Aggregate Capital exceeds the Facility Limit, or Seller desires to make a voluntary reduction of the Aggregate Capital outstanding, Seller shall provide the Co-Agents with two (2) Business Days’ irrevocable prior written notice in the form of Exhibit II-B hereto (a “Reduction Notice”) of a proposed reduction of Aggregate Capital. Such Reduction Notice shall (a) be prepared in accordance with the most recent Settlement Report, and (b) designate (i) the Business Day (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Capital shall occur, (ii) the amount of Aggregate Capital to be reduced (the “Aggregate Reduction”), and (iii) each Purchaser Group’s Percentage of such Aggregate Reduction which shall be not less than $1,000,000 per Purchaser Group. Seller shall pay to each Co-Agent its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of each Aggregate Reduction, which shall be distributed by such Co-Agent ratably to the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group in accordance with the amount of Capital owing to each of them. Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time.

Section 1.4. Payment Requirements. Each Seller Party shall initiate a wire transfer of amounts to be paid or deposited by it pursuant to any provision of this Agreement no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in immediately available funds. If such amounts are payable to the Administrative Agent, the Xxxxx Group Co-Agent or Xxxxx, they shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account for prompt distribution to the appropriate party or parties. If such amounts are payable to the Victory Group Co-Agent, BTMU or Victory, they shall be paid to the Victory Group Co-Agent’s Account for prompt distribution to the appropriate party or parties; provided, however, that from and after the Dominion Date, all amounts that would otherwise be payable to the Victory Group Co-Agent’s Account shall instead first be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account for distribution to the Co-Agents. All computations of CP Costs, Yield and per annum Fees under the Transaction Documents shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.5. Deemed Collections. Upon the occurrence of any Dilution, Seller shall be deemed to have received a Deemed Collection in the amount specified in the definition of “Deemed Collection,” and such Deemed Collection shall be immediately applied to reduce the Net Pool Balance. To the extent the effect of such Deemed Collection on the Net Pool Balance is to cause an Investment Excess, Seller shall deliver to the Servicer immediately available funds in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of all Deemed Collections deemed received by Seller and (b) an amount necessary to eliminate such Investment Excess, and in each case, the Servicer shall remit the same pursuant to Article II.

Section 1.6. Conduit Purchaser Funding. Seller shall pay CP Costs with respect to the Capital of all Receivable Interests funded by a Conduit Purchaser through the issuance of Commercial Paper. Not later than the 5^th Business Day of each month, each applicable Co-Agent on behalf of the Conduit Purchaser(s) in its Purchaser Group shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs applicable to such Conduit Purchaser’s Capital for the Calculation Period then most recently ended (including unpaid CP Costs, if any, due and payable on a prior Monthly Payment Date that remain unpaid) and shall notify Seller (and, from and after the Dominion Date, the Administrative Agent) of such aggregate amount. On each Monthly Payment Date, Seller shall pay to each such Co-Agent (for the benefit of the Conduit Purchaser(s) in its Purchaser Group) the aggregate amount of such accrued and unpaid CP Costs. Seller will have the right to replace any Purchaser Group which includes a Conduit Purchaser or reduce the Commitment of the Committed Purchaser in any such Purchaser Group if the applicable Conduit Purchaser’s CP Costs and Usage Fees for any three consecutive Calculation Periods are greater than Yield accrued on a comparable amount of Capital at LMIR during such three consecutive Calculation Periods by more than 25 basis points.

Section 1.7. Committed Purchaser Funding.

(a) In the event that BTMU purchases its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of any Receivable Interest pursuant to Section 1.1(a)(ii)(B) or purchases all or any portion of its Conduit Purchaser’s investment in the Receivable Interest pursuant to its Liquidity Agreement, BTMU shall allocate its Capital to one or more Interest Periods selected in consultation with Seller.

(b) The outstanding Capital of each investment in the Receivable Interests that was not funded through the issuance of Commercial Paper (including, without limitation, each investment of a Conduit Purchaser that is put to its liquidity provider(s) under its Liquidity Agreement) shall accrue Yield for each day at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of Xxxxx, LMIR (or, if LMIR is unavailable or has been suspended pursuant to Section 1.8, at the Alternate Base Rate), and (ii) in the case of BTMU, for each Interest Period, the Adjusted BTMU LIBO Rate for such Interest Period for the portion of BTMU’s Capital that is allocated thereto (or, if the BTMU LIBO Rate is unavailable or has been suspended pursuant to Section 1.8, at the Alternate Base Rate).

(c) Not later than the 5^th Business Day of each month, each Co-Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of Yield (if any) payable to the members of its Purchaser Group for the Calculation Period then most recently ended (including unpaid Yield, if any, due and payable on a prior Monthly Payment Date) and shall notify Seller (and, from and after the Dominion Date, the Administrative Agent) of such aggregate amount.

(d) On each Monthly Payment Date, Seller shall pay to each such Co-Agent (for the benefit of the applicable Purchaser(s) in its Purchaser Group) the aggregate amount of such accrued and unpaid Yield.

Section 1.8. Suspension of the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR. If any Committed Purchaser (or its Co-Agent) notifies Seller and the Administrative Agent that it has determined that funding an investment in any Receivable Interest at a rate based on the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any Governmental Authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match-fund its Receivable Interest at a rate based on the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR are not available or (ii) the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining an investment in any Receivable Interest at a rate based on the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR, then the applicable Co-Agent shall suspend the availability of the BTMU LIBO Rate or LMIR, as applicable, from such Committed Purchaser and require Seller to select the Alternate Base Rate for such Purchaser’s portion of any Receivable Interest accruing Yield at such rate.

ARTICLE II.

PAYMENTS AND COLLECTIONS

Section 2.1. Collections during the Revolving Period. During the Revolving Period, any Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by the Servicer (or from and after the Dominion Date, by the Administrative Agent) shall be held in trust for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section 2.1 (provided that Aggregate Capital shall not be payable during the Revolving Period except to the extent provided in Section 1.3 and Section 1.5, and Collections and/or Deemed Collections shall not be required to be segregated prior to the Dominion Date but instead shall be permitted to be used by the Servicer and its Affiliates in accordance with Section 6.2(c)). On each day during the Revolving Period that is not a Settlement Date, subject to Section 1.4, the last sentence of this Section 2.1 and Section 4.2, Collections that are not required to be segregated pursuant to Section 6.2(c) shall first be applied to making additional Purchases of undivided interests in the Receivables and the associated Related Security, such that after giving effect thereto, the outstanding Aggregate Capital is equal to the Aggregate Capital outstanding immediately prior to receipt of such Collections and the Receivable Interest does not exceed 100% (each such Purchase, a “Reinvestment”). Each Reinvestment will be presumed to be made ratably amongst all Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective Percentages. On each Settlement Date, the Servicer shall deliver to

each of the Co-Agents its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of all Collections received (or deemed received) during the related Calculation Period (after deducting therefrom its Servicing Fee) equal to the amounts due and owing pursuant to clauses first through fourth of Section 2.3 for application in accordance therewith (the “Required Amounts”). If on any Settlement Date during the Revolving Period there are insufficient Collections to pay all Required Amounts that are then due and owing under Section 2.3, the next available Collections shall be applied to such payments in accordance with Section 2.3, and no Reinvestment shall be permitted hereunder until such amounts payable have been paid in full.

Section 2.2. Collections After the Facility Termination Date. On each day during the Liquidation Period, except to the extent paid directly to the Administrative Agent by any Collection Bank or Lock-Box Bank pursuant to a Notice of Exclusive Control, all Collections shall be held in trust by the Servicer, for the benefit of the Agents and the Purchasers, until the next Settlement Date in a Collection Account or other segregated account, in each of the foregoing cases, which is subject to a first priority perfected Security Interest in favor of the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.3. Order of Application of Collections on Settlement Dates. Upon receipt by the Co-Agents (or, following the earlier to occur of the Dominion Date or the Liquidation Period, the Administrative Agent), on any Settlement Date of Collections, the Co-Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall distribute them for application in the following order of priority:

first, if such day is a Monthly Payment Date, to the Purchasers, pro rata, in payment of any accrued and unpaid Yield, CP Costs and Usage Fees then due and owing on account of their investments in the Receivable Interests, including any previously accrued Yield, CP Costs or Usage Fees that were not paid on the applicable prior Monthly Payment Date;

second, if such day is a Monthly Payment Date, to the Purchasers, pro rata, in payment of any Unused Fees and Default Fees accrued during the Calculation Period (or portion thereof) then most recently ended, plus any previously accrued Unused Fees and Default Fees not paid on a prior Monthly Payment Date;

third, if such day is a Capital Settlement Date, to the Purchasers, pro rata, in reduction of their Capital, (i) during the Revolving Period, solely to the extent such reduction is required under Section 1.3 or Section 1.5, and (ii) during the Liquidation Period, until the Aggregate Capital is reduced to $0;

fourth, if such day is a Monthly Payment Date, to pay all Broken Funding Costs and other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to any of the Purchasers, the Agents or the Indemnified Parties hereunder, pro rata and pari passu among all such amounts; and

fifth, (i) during the Revolving Period, to Seller, free and clear of any interest of the Agents and the Purchasers or (ii) during or after the Liquidation Period, if the Aggregate Unpaids have been reduced to zero, to Seller, free and clear of any interest of the Agents and the Purchasers.

Section 2.4. Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. Seller shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to each of the Co-Agents, for the account of the applicable Purchaser in its Purchaser Group, such Purchaser Group’s respective Percentage thereof together with the Default Fee thereon from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Section 2.5. Clean-up Option. At any time while the Aggregate Capital outstanding is less than 10% of the Facility Limit, Seller shall have the right (after providing at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Co-Agents) to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Receivable Interests. The purchase price in respect thereof shall be an amount equal to the Aggregate Unpaids through the date of such repurchase, payable in immediately available funds. Such purchase shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against any of the Agents or Purchasers except for a representation and warranty that the conveyance to Servicer is being made free and clear of any Adverse Claim created by such Agent or Purchaser, as the case may be. On the date of repurchase of the Receivable Interests pursuant to this Section, the Commitments of the Committed Purchasers shall automatically terminate.

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

Section 6.1. Designation of the Servicer.

(a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the “Servicer”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 6.1. Distributors is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers may at any time designate as the Servicer any Person to succeed Distributors or any successor Servicer.

(b) Distributors may delegate to the other Originators, as sub-servicers of the Servicer (each such other Originator, a “Sub-Servicer”), certain of its duties and responsibilities as the Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such Originators. Without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, the Servicer shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as the Servicer to any Person other than (i) the other Originators, and (ii) with respect to certain Charged-Off Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. None of the Sub-Servicers shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by Distributors. If at any time following the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Agents shall designate as the Servicer any Person other than Distributors, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by Distributors to any of the Sub-Servicers may, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent or any of the Agents, be terminated forthwith on notice given by any of the Agents to the other Agents, Distributors and Seller.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) the Servicer shall be and remain primarily liable to the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Agents and the Purchasers shall be entitled to deal exclusively with the Servicer in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agents and the Purchasers shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than the Servicer in order for communication to the Servicer and the Sub-Servicers or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. The Servicer, at all times that it is the Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any Sub-Servicer or other delegate of the Servicer with any notice given to the Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 6.2. Duties of the Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy of each respective Originator.

(b) The Servicer shall direct all Obligors to make payments of the Receivables as follows:

(ii) Directly to a Lock Box that clears through a Lock-Box Account which is subject to an Account Control Agreement;

(iii) Directly to a Collection Account which is subject to an Account Control Agreement;

(iv) To a Cash Application Center which deposits its receipts each Business Day into a Collection Account that is subject to an Account Control Agreement; or

If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Obligor makes payment to any Seller Party or Originator other than at a Cash Application Center or Sales Center, the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, agrees to remit, or to cause the applicable Originator to remit, any Collections (including any security deposits applied to the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable) that it receives on Receivables directly to a Collection Account that is subject to an Account Control Agreement within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof, and further agrees that all such Collections shall be deemed to be received in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers; provided that prior to the Dominion Date, the Seller or the Servicer may retain such Collections until required to be turned over to the Administrative Agent or the Co-Agents on the next Settlement Date.

(c) From and after the date the Administrative Agent delivers to any Lock-Box Bank(s) or Collection Bank(s) a Notice of Exclusive Control pursuant to Section 6.4 (each such date, the “Dominion Date”), the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Purchasers, may request that the Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the Administrative Agent and, at all times thereafter, Seller and the Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and shall not permit any other Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any cash or payment item other than Collections.

(d) The Servicer (and from and after the Dominion Date, the Administrative Agent) shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 6.2(d), the Servicer shall hold in trust for the account of Seller and each Purchaser their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. From and after the Dominion Date, the Servicer shall, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II to the extent of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids, and the requirement to continue such segregation shall continue until such Amortization Event is waived in the sole discretion of the Required Co-Agents or until the conditions to further Purchases set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied. Subject to Section 2.2, at all times while the Servicer is required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Administrative Agent such allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for the Purchasers on the first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for so long as the Administrative Agent is not permitted to and has not requested the segregation of Collections in accordance with this Section 6.2(d) and Distributors or one of its Affiliates is the Servicer, the Servicer may process Collections as a part of a central cash management system maintained by Distributors and its Affiliates, which system shall include written records (which may be electronic) of all debits and credits attributable to Seller and its Receivables and all other participants in such system and, prior to the Dominion Date, such funds may be commingled with other funds of Distributors and its Affiliates.

(e) The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable, Defaulted Receivable or Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the occurrence and during continuation of an Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(f) The Servicer shall hold in trust for Seller and the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser all Records in its possession that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, following the occurrence of an Amortization Event that is continuing (provided such Amortization Event is not, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers, waived in accordance with this Agreement, and provided further that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Purchaser shall be required to grant any such waiver), as soon as practicable upon demand of the Administrative Agent, deliver or make available to the Administrative Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Administrative Agent. The Servicer shall, one (1) Business Day following receipt thereof turn over (A) to Seller any cash Collections or other cash proceeds in accordance with Article II and (B) to the applicable Person any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness not constituting Receivables. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser, furnish to the Purchasers (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Purchasers pursuant to Article II.

(g) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to an Originator or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by Contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, 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 obligation of such Obligor.

Section 6.3. Lock-Box Accounts and Collection Accounts. Subject to the terms of the applicable Account Control Agreement, the Seller Parties shall grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over each Lock-Box and Lock-Box Account and each Collection Account from time to time identified by the Administrative Agent.

Section 6.4. Notices of Exclusive Control; P.O. Box Agreements. The Administrative Agent is authorized to date and to deliver to the Lock-Box Banks and Collection Banks the Notices of Exclusive Control, and to the applicable postmasters, the P.O. Box Agreements, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event. Subject to the terms of the applicable Account Control Agreement, the applicable Originator has transferred to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, exclusive “control” over each Collection Account identified on Exhibit IV hereto and each of the Lock-Box Accounts; provided, however, that the Seller Parties shall retain the right to direct dispositions of funds from the Collection Accounts and Lock-Box Accounts prior to the Dominion Date. Each of the Seller Parties hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (a) at any time after delivery of the Notices of Exclusive Control and the P.O. Box Agreements, to endorse the applicable Seller Party’s (or the applicable Originator’s) name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (b) at any time after an Amortization Event hereunder has occurred and is continuing, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security, and (c) at any time after an Amortization Event hereunder has occurred and is continuing, to take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Administrative Agent rather than the Seller Parties or the Originators.

Section 6.5. Responsibilities under Contracts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agents and the Purchasers of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, any Originator or Seller from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Purchasers shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Seller or any Originator.

Section 6.6. Reports.

(a) On each Weekly Reporting Date, the Servicer shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Co-Agents a Weekly Report in the form of Exhibit VIII hereto (appropriately completed and executed).

(b) On each Monthly Reporting Date, the Servicer shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Co-Agents, a Monthly Report for the calendar month then most recently ended in the form of Exhibit IX hereto (appropriately completed and executed).

(c) At such times as any Co-Agent shall reasonably request, the Servicer shall prepare and deliver not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days after such request a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables.

Section 6.7. Servicing Fees. In consideration of Distributors’ agreement to act as the Servicer hereunder, so long as Distributors shall continue to perform as the Servicer hereunder, Distributors shall be paid a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on each Monthly Payment Date, in arrears for the immediately preceding Calculation Period, equal to 1.0% per annum of the average aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Receivables during such period. At any time while the Servicer is not an Affiliate of Seller, the Servicing Fee shall be computed at such rate per annum as the Administrative Agent, Seller and the substitute the Servicer may mutually agree.

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of Seller or limit the recourse of the Agents or the Purchasers to Seller for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by Seller under the terms of the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, Seller shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible Receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to Seller) relating to or resulting from:

(i) any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party or any Originator (or any officers of any such Person) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report required to be delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

(ii) the failure by any Seller Party or any Originator to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivable or Contract related thereto, or the nonconformity of any Receivable or Contract included therein with any such applicable law, rule or regulation or any failure of any Originator to keep or perform any of its obligations, express or implied, with respect to any Contract;

(iii) any failure of any Seller Party or any Originator to perform its duties, covenants or other obligations in accordance with the provisions of any Transaction Document to which it is a party;

(iv) any environmental liability, products liability, personal injury or damage suit, or other similar claim arising out of or in connection with merchandise, insurance or services that are the subject of any Contract or any Receivable;

(v) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the merchandise or service related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services;

(vi) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of any Purchase, the ownership of the Receivable Interests or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to any Seller Party or any Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(viii) any inability to litigate any claim against any Obligor in respect of any Receivable as a result of such Obligor being immune from civil and commercial law and suit on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action, suit or proceeding;

(ix) any Amortization Event described in Section 7.1(g);

(x) any failure of Seller to acquire and maintain legal and equitable title to, and ownership of any Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto from any Originator, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other than as created hereunder); or any failure of Seller to give reasonably equivalent value to the applicable Originator under the Sale Agreement in consideration of the transfer by it of any Receivable, or any attempt by any Person to void such transfer under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action;

(xi) any failure to vest and maintain vested in the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Purchasers) a valid and perfected ownership interest (to the extent of the Receivable Interests) or a first priority perfected Security Interest in the Collateral, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (except as created by the Transaction Documents);

(xii) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Collateral, whether on the date hereof or at any subsequent time, except to the extent such failure or delay is caused by the Administrative Agent;

(xiii) any action or omission by any Seller Party which reduces or impairs the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers with respect to any Collateral or the value of any Collateral;

(xiv) any attempt by any Person to void any Purchase or the Security Interest in the Collateral granted hereunder, whether under statutory provision, common law or equitable action; and

(xv) the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Investment Base as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable at the time so included.

(b) After receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (collectively, a “Proceeding”) involving such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Seller hereunder, promptly notify Seller in writing, and in reasonable detail, of such Proceeding. Upon receipt of notice from an Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder with respect to any such Proceeding, Seller shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Upon Seller’s assumption of the defense of any such Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such Proceeding and to retain its own counsel but Seller shall not be liable for any legal expenses of other counsel subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (x) Seller agrees in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (y) Seller fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, or (z) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are actual or potential conflicting interests between Seller, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to Seller; provided, however, that Seller shall not in any event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel, where necessary) for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Proceeding.

Seller shall have the sole authority to settle any claim for monetary damages and, if Seller chooses not to assume the defense of any such Proceeding, no Indemnified Party will consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Proceeding without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 8.2. Indemnities by the Servicer. (a) Without limiting any other rights that the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, taxes, liabilities, costs, reasonable expenses and for all other amounts payable, including reasonable fees and disbursements of external counsel (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Servicer Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of the Servicer’s failure to duly and punctually perform its obligations under this Agreement excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances:

(A) Servicer Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Servicer Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of an Indemnified Party; and

(B) Servicer Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses in respect of Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness or financial inability or unwillingness to pay (other than a dispute giving rise to a Dilution) of the related Obligor;

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of the Servicer or limit the recourse of the Purchasers to the Servicer for Collections received by the Servicer and required to be remitted by it under the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, the Servicer shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Servicer Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible Receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to the Servicer) relating to or resulting from:

(i) any representation or warranty made by the Servicer (or any officers of the Servicer) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made;

(ii) the failure by the Servicer to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the collection of any Receivable or Related Security;

(iv) the commingling by the Servicer of Collections of Receivables or funds or other assets arising therefrom at any time with other funds;

(v) any investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to the Servicer in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(vi) any Amortization Event of the described in Section 7.1(g) with respect to the Servicer; and

(vii) any action or omission by the Servicer relating to its obligations hereunder which reduces or impairs the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers with respect to any Receivable or the value of any such Receivable.

(b) After receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any Proceedings involving such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Servicer hereunder, promptly notify the Servicer in writing, and in reasonable detail, of such Proceeding. Upon receipt of notice from an Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder with respect to any such Proceeding, the Servicer shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Upon the Servicer’s assumption of the defense of any such Proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in such Proceeding and to retain its own counsel but the Servicer shall not be liable for any legal expenses of other counsel subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof unless (x) the Servicer agrees in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (y) the Servicer fails to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in a timely manner, or (z) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are actual or potential conflicting interests between the Servicer, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, including situations in which there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Servicer; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not in any event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel, where necessary) for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Proceeding. The Servicer shall have the sole authority to settle any claim for monetary damages and, if the Servicer chooses not to assume the defense of any such Proceeding, no Indemnified Party will consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Proceeding without the Servicer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Section 8.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. If after the date hereof, any Regulatory Change shall occur: (i) that subjects any Purchaser (or its holding company) to any charge or withholding on or with respect to this Agreement, the Purchasers’ Fee Letter, any Liquidity Agreement to which such Purchaser is a party or a Purchaser’s obligations hereunder or thereunder, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Purchaser under this Agreement, the Purchasers’ Fee Letter, any Liquidity Agreement to which such Purchaser is a party or a Purchaser’s obligations hereunder (except for Excluded Taxes or taxes excluded by Section 8.1), (ii) that imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of any Purchaser, or credit extended by any Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or any Liquidity Agreement to which it is a party or (iii) that imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Purchaser of performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Liquidity Agreement to which it is a party, or to reduce the rate of return on any Purchaser’s (or its holding company’s) capital as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement or any Liquidity Agreement to which it is a party, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Purchaser under this Agreement, the Purchasers’ Fee Letter or any Liquidity Agreement to which it is a party or to require any payment calculated by reference to amount of interests held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by the applicable Purchaser, Seller shall pay to such Purchaser, such amounts charged to such Purchaser (or its holding company) or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Purchaser (or its holding company) for such increased cost or such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchaser that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, shall be entitled to reimbursement or compensation hereunder unless and until it has delivered to Seller two (2) duly completed and signed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as applicable, certifying in either case that such Purchaser is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. Failure or delay on the part of any Purchaser to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Purchaser’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Seller shall not be required to compensate a Purchaser pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Purchaser notifies Seller of the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Purchaser’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 8.4. Other Costs and Expenses. Seller shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including without limitation, the cost of auditors auditing the books, records and procedures of Seller, reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of external legal counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and remedies under this Agreement.

Upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to an Assignment Agreement), such Purchaser shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Purchaser prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Seller hereunder, and the Replacement Purchaser shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Purchaser hereunder.

Section 12.1. Waivers and Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of any of the Agents or Purchasers in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b) No provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except in writing in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.1(b) or without satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, if applicable. This Agreement and the provisions hereof may only be amended, supplemented, modified or waived in a writing signed by the Seller, the Servicer and the Required Co-Agents; provided, however, that (i) without the consent of any Purchaser, the Agents and Seller may amend this Agreement solely to add additional Persons as Purchasers hereunder; (ii) the Agents and the Purchasers may enter into amendments to modify any of the terms or provisions of Article IX of this Agreement without the consent of Seller, provided that (x) such amendment has no negative impact upon Seller or Servicer, and (y) unless an Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, Seller shall have the right to consent to the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and (iii) without the consent of each Purchaser directly affected thereby, (A) extend the Facility Termination Date or the date of any payment or deposit of Collections by the Seller or the Servicer, (B) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of Yield (or any component of Yield), (C) reduce any fee payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Purchaser, (D) change the Capital of any Receivable Interest, (E) amend, modify or waive any provision of the definition of Required Co-Agents or this Section 12.1(b), (F) consent to or permit the assignment or transfer by the Seller of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (G)

Any modification or waiver made in accordance with this Section 12.1 shall be binding upon each of the parties hereto.

Section 12.2. Notices. Except as provided in this Section 12.2, all communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including email, bank wire, telecopy or electronic facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to the other parties hereto at their respective addresses or telecopy numbers set forth on the signature pages hereof or at such other address or telecopy number as such Person may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to each of the other parties hereto. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (a) if given by telecopy or email, upon the receipt thereof, (b) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid or (c) if given by any other means, when received at the address specified in this Section 12.2. Seller hereby authorizes the Purchasers to effect Purchases and Yield Rate selections based on telephonic notices made by any Person whom the Administrative Agent in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of Seller. Seller agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer of Seller; provided, however, the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs from the action taken by the Administrative Agent, the records of the Administrative Agent shall govern absent manifest error.

Section 12.3. Ratable Payments. If any Purchaser, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any portion of the Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Purchaser (other than payments received pursuant to Section 8.3 or 8.4) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Purchaser entitled to receive a ratable share of such Aggregate Unpaids, such Purchaser agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such Aggregate Unpaids held by the other Purchasers so that after such purchase each Purchaser will hold its ratable proportion of such Aggregate Unpaids; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

Section 12.4. Protection of Ownership and Security Interests.

(a) Seller agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Purchasers’ ownership of the Receivable Interests or the Administrative Agent’s (on behalf of the Purchasers) Security Interest in the Collateral, or to enable the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder. At any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Administrative Agent may, or the Administrative Agent may direct Seller or the Servicer to, notify the Obligors of Receivables, at Seller’s expense, of the ownership or Security Interests of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Purchasers) under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee. Seller or the Servicer (as applicable) shall, at any Purchaser’s request, withhold the identity of such Purchaser in any such notification.

(b) If any Seller Party fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser may (but shall not be required to) perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and the Administrative Agent’s or such Purchaser’s costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller as provided in Section 8.4. Each Seller Party irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, and appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Seller Party (i) to execute on behalf of Seller as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Purchasers in the Receivables, including, financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby “all of debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Receivables described in this Agreement and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables as a financing statement in such offices as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interests of the Purchasers in the Receivables. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

In addition, each of the Agents and the Purchasers may disclose any such nonpublic information pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law) although each of them shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure, to the extent permitted given the circumstances, that any such information which is so disclosed is kept confidential.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Conduit Purchaser shall, or shall be obligated to, pay any amount, if any, payable by it pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless (i) such Conduit Purchaser has received funds which may be used to make such payment and which funds are not required to repay its Commercial Paper when due and (ii) after giving effect to such payment, either (x) such Conduit Purchaser could issue Commercial Paper to refinance all of its outstanding Commercial Paper (assuming such outstanding Commercial Paper matured at such time) in accordance with the program documents governing such Conduit Purchaser’s securitization program or (y) all Commercial Paper is paid in full. Any amount which such Conduit Purchaser does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in §101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against or company obligation of such Conduit Purchaser for any such insufficiency unless and until the Conduit Purchaser satisfies the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) above.
