Section 2.01. Sale and Conveyance of Receivables. On the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller agrees to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Seller, the Receivables, and the other property relating thereto (as described below).

(a) Subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01, on the Closing Date, and simultaneously with the transactions to be consummated pursuant to the Indenture, the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Trust Agreement, the Seller shall, pursuant to the First-Tier Assignment, sell, transfer, assign and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Seller, without recourse (subject to the Seller’s obligations hereunder), all right, title and interest of the Seller, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, and wheresoever located, in, to and under the following:

(i) the Receivables and all amounts due and collected on or in respect of the Receivables (including proceeds of the repurchase of Receivables by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 3.04 of this Agreement or the purchase of Receivables by the Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.03, 3.08 or 8.01 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement) after the Cutoff Date;

(b) In connection with the foregoing conveyance, the Seller further agrees, at its own expense, to, on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) annotate and indicate in its books, records and computer files that the Receivables have been sold and transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) deliver to the Purchaser a computer file or printed or microfiche list of the Schedule of Receivables containing a true and complete list of the Receivables, identified by account number and by the Principal Balance as of the Cutoff Date, which file or list shall be marked as Schedule A and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered the Receivable Files to or upon the order of the Purchaser.

(c) The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of Receivables and related property hereunder be a sale and not a loan. In the event that the conveyance hereunder is for any reason not considered a sale, including if an Insolvency Event or other insolvency Proceeding occurs with respect to the Seller or any of the Seller’s properties, the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a first priority security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables, and all other property conveyed hereunder and all proceeds of the foregoing. The parties intend that this Agreement constitute a security agreement under Applicable Law. Such grant is made to secure the payment of all amounts payable hereunder, including the Receivables Purchase Price. If such conveyance is for any reason considered to be a loan and not a sale, the Seller consents to the Purchaser transferring such security interest in favor of the Indenture Trustee to the Issuer and to the Issuer transferring the obligation secured thereby to the Indenture Trustee.

Section 2.02. Receivables Purchase Price; Payments on the Receivables.

(a) On the Closing Date, in exchange for the Receivables and other assets described in Section 2.01(a), the Purchaser shall pay the Seller the Receivables Purchase Price which is equal to (i) $798,630,504.00 in immediately available funds from the sale of the Notes to the Underwriters plus (ii) a capital contribution from DTFS USA to the Depositor in the amount of $333,127,501.00 (representing the Class A-1 Notes and the Certificates) less (iii) the organizational, startup and transactional expenses of the Issuer, equal to $1,000,000, and the Reserve Fund Deposit. The Purchaser, as set forth in the Sale and Servicing Agreement, shall deposit, from funds it receives from the sale of the Notes, the Reserve Fund Depos-it into the Reserve Fund, which amount shall be an asset of the Issuer. The Depositor shall receive, and shall be the holder of, the Certificates.

(b) The Purchaser shall be entitled to, and shall convey such right to the Issuer pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, all amounts due and collected on or in respect of the Receivables received after the Cutoff Date.

Section 2.03. Transfer of Receivables. Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser will assign all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables and other assets described in Section 2.01(a) and its interests under this Agreement to the Issuer. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Issuer will pledge its rights in, to and under the Receivables and other assets described in Section 2.01(a) and its interests under this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. The Purchaser shall have the right to assign its interest under this Agreement as may be required to effect the purposes of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of the Seller, and the Issuer as assignee shall succeed to the rights hereunder of the Purchaser and shall have the right to assign its interest under this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

Section 2.05. Cross-collateralization. To the extent the Seller retains any interest in any item of Financed Equipment or other collateral securing any Receivable as a result of the related Obligor agreeing to cross-collateralize obligations owed by such Obligor to the Seller or otherwise, the Seller agrees that its interest in the Financed Equipment or other collateral will be expressly subordinate and junior in priority to the repayment in full of any and all amounts outstanding or due or that become due under such Receivable prior to becoming available to pay any amount outstanding or due or that becomes due under any other obligation owed by the Obligor. To the extent that the Seller sells, assigns, pledges or otherwise transfers any contract and conveys any interest in any item of Financed Equipment or other collateral securing any Receivable as a result of such cross-collateralization, the Seller agrees that it will obtain from the transferee thereof a subordination agreement with the same terms as that set forth in the preceding sentence.
