The Receivables Purchaser has been formed for the sole purpose of purchasing, or otherwise acquiring by capital contribution, and reselling to the Purchasers, all Transferred Receivables acquired by the Receivables Seller pursuant to the Contribution Agreement. C. The Receivables Seller intends to sell, and the Receivables Purchaser intends to purchase, such Transferred Receivables, from time to time, as described herein. D. The Servicer is willing to service, administer and collect the Transferred Receivables on the terms and conditions set forth herein. AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION SECTION 1.1 DEFINITIONS. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex X. SECTION 1.2 RULES OF CONSTRUCTION. For purposes of this Agreement, the rules of construction set forth in Annex X 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. ARTICLE II TRANSFERS OF RECEIVABLES SECTION 2.1 AGREEMENT TO TRANSFER. (a) Receivables Transfers. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Receivables Seller agrees to sell (without recourse except to the extent specifically provided herein) or contribute to Receivables Purchaser on the Closing Date and on each Business Day thereafter (each such date, a "Transfer Date") all Transferred Receivables owned by it on each such Transfer Date and Receivables Purchaser agrees to purchase or acquire all such Transferred Receivables on each such Transfer Date. In furtherance thereof, the Receivables Seller hereby sells, transfers and assigns to Receivables Purchaser all of Receivables Seller's right, title and interest (but none of the duties or obligations) in, to and under the Contribution Agreement. All such Transfers shall be evidenced by a certificate of assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(a) (the "Assignment"), and the Receivables Seller and Receivables Purchaser shall execute and deliver the Assignment on or before the Closing Date. (b) Determination of Sold Receivables. On and as of each Transfer Date, all Transferred Receivables owned by the Receivables Seller and not previously acquired by Receivables Purchaser shall be identified for sale to Receivables Purchaser such that the Sale Price to be paid by Receivables Purchaser therefor does not exceed the sum of (i) the amount of cash available to Receivables Purchaser for the payment thereof and (ii) the proceeds of a Subordinated Loan (as defined below) (each such Transferred Receivable identified for sale, individually, a "Sold Receivable" and, collectively, the "Sold Receivables"); provided, however, on the initial Transfer Date, the Sale Price to be paid by the Receivables Purchaser for Sold Receivables shall not exceed the amount of cash available to Receivables Purchaser for the payment thereof. (c) Payment of Sale Price. In consideration for each Sale of Sold Receivables hereunder, Receivables Purchaser shall pay to the Receivables Seller on the Transfer Date therefor the Sale Price in the following manner: (i) for any Sale of Sold Receivables occurring on the initial Transfer Date: (A) by delivery in Dollars in immediately available funds, to the extent of the amount of cash available to Receivables Purchaser; and (ii) for any Sale of Sold Receivables occurring on any Transfer Date after the initial Transfer Date: (A) by delivery in Dollars in immediately available funds, to the extent of the amount of cash available to Receivables Purchaser; and 2 (B) the balance, by delivery of the proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from the Receivables Seller to Receivables Purchaser (each, a "Subordinated Loan" and collectively, the "Subordinated Loans") in an amount not to exceed the least of (A) the remaining unpaid portion of the Sale Price, (B) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering the Receivables Purchaser's Net Worth Percentage to be less than 5% and (C) fifteen percent (15%) of the maximum then Outstanding Balance of the Transferred Receivables. On the date hereof, the Receivables Purchaser shall issue to the Receivables Seller, a subordinated note (the "Subordinated Note") substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.1(c) hereto. The Receivables Seller is hereby authorized by Receivables Purchaser to endorse on the schedule attached to the Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of Receivables Purchaser thereunder. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.1(c), the Receivables Seller irrevocably agrees to advance each Subordinated Loan requested by Receivables Purchaser on each applicable Transfer Date occurring on or prior to the Facility Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which Receivables Purchaser is not required under the Purchase Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Purchasers or the Administrative Agent. (d) Determination of Contributed Receivables. To the extent that, on and as of any Transfer Date, Transferred Receivables owned by the Receivables Seller do not constitute Sold Receivables pursuant to Section 2.1(b) then the Receivables Seller shall, unless it has delivered an Election Notice (as defined below) to Receivables Purchaser, contribute such Transferred Receivables to Receivables Purchaser as a capital contribution (each such contributed Transferred Receivable, individually, a "Contributed Receivable," and collectively, the "Contributed Receivables"). If the Receivables Seller elects not to contribute Transferred Receivables to Receivables Purchaser on any Transfer Date, or if any Transferred Receivables eligible for sale and owned by the Receivables Seller are not sold on any Transfer Date, the Receivables Seller shall deliver to Receivables Purchaser not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding such Transfer Date a notice of election thereof (each such notice, an "Election Notice"). (e) Ownership of Transferred Receivables. On and after each Transfer Date and after giving effect to the Transfers to be made on each such date, Receivables Purchaser shall own the Transferred Receivables and all of the Receivables Seller's rights, but none of the duties or obligations, in, to and under the Contribution Agreement with respect to the Transferred Receivables and the Receivables Seller or the Originator shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor shall the Receivables Seller or the Originator claim any ownership interest in such Transferred Receivables. The Sold Receivables and the Contributed Receivables will be identified by reference to the Receivables General Trial Balance of the Receivables Seller. 3 (f) Reconstruction of Receivables General Trial Balance. If at any time the Receivables Seller fails to generate its Receivables General Trial Balance, Receivables Purchaser shall have the right to cause the Receivables Seller to reconstruct or to reconstruct directly such Receivables General Trial Balance so that a determination of the Sold Receivables and the Contributed Receivables can be made pursuant to Section 2.1(e). The Receivables Seller agrees to cooperate with such reconstruction, including by delivery to Receivables Purchaser, upon Receivables Purchaser's request, of copies of all Contracts and Records.. (g) Servicing of Receivables. So long as no Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and no Successor Servicer has assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to Section 9.2 of the Purchase Agreement, the Servicer shall (i) conduct the servicing, administration and collection of the Transferred Receivables and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to service, administer and collect the Transferred Receivables, all in accordance with (A) the terms of the Purchase Agreement, (B) customary and prudent servicing procedures for trade receivables of a similar type and (C) all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and (ii) hold all Contracts and other documents and incidents relating to the Transferred Receivables in trust for the benefit of Receivables Purchaser, as the owner thereof, and for the sole purpose of facilitating the servicing of the Transferred Receivables in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement. SECTION 2.2 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. The parties hereto intend that each Transfer shall constitute a purchase and sale or a capital contribution, as applicable, and not a loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to and not in derogation of any rights now or hereafter acquired by Receivables Purchaser under Section 2.1 hereof, the parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law and that the Receivables Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and the Receivables Seller does hereby grant, to the Receivables Purchaser a continuing security interest in (i) all of the Receivables Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the Transferred Receivables whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the Receivables Seller and (ii) all of the Receivables Seller's right, title and interest, but none of the duties or obligations, in, to and under the Contribution Agreement to secure the obligations of the Receivables Seller to the Receivables Purchaser hereunder (including, if and to the extent that any Transfer is recharacterized as a transfer for security, the repayment of a loan deemed to have been made by the Receivables Purchaser in the amount of the Sale Price with respect thereto and which secures the Receivables Purchaser's right to receive all Collections of the Transferred Receivables as otherwise contemplated under this Agreement).

The Receivables Seller is not liable for any charges: (A) under any agreement (including any tax sharing agreements) or (B) to the best of the Receivables Seller's knowledge, as a transferee.

The Receivables Seller owns no Margin Stock, and no portion of the proceeds of the Sale Price for any Transferred Receivable sold hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Debt that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that 9 might cause any portion of such proceeds to be considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. The Receivables Seller will not take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Related Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

(p) Government Regulation. The Receivables Seller 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. The purchase of the Transferred Receivable by the Receivables Purchasers hereunder, the application of the proceeds thereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Documents will not violate any provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. (q) Separate Existence.

SECTION 6.4 INTEREST.

(b) The Parent shall record on a schedule attached to the Intercompany Note (which schedule may be computer generated) with respect to each Intercompany Loan thereunder: (i) the date and principal amount thereof and (ii) each prepayment of principal, if any, thereof. The balance as reflected on such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Receivables Seller by the Parent; provided, that any failure of the Receivables Seller to record a notation on the schedule to the Intercompany Note as aforesaid or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Parent to repay such Intercompany Loan in accordance with its respective terms as set forth herein. SECTION 6A.3 TERMS OF INTERCOMPANY NOTE.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any Intercompany Loan made by Receivables Seller to the Parent hereunder is a separate and distinct transaction from the Transfer of Receivables by the Originator to the Receivables Seller and is not intended to derogate from the expressed intention of the parties regarding the characterization of the Transfers of the Receivables made under the Contribution Agreement as purchases and sales and not as secured transactions. 27 ARTICLE VII COLLATERAL SECURITY SECTION 7.1 SECURITY INTEREST.

SECTION 8.7 GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH RELATED DOCUMENT (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY RELATED DOCUMENT EXPRESSLY PROVIDES TO THE CONTRARY) AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES), EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION, EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR PRIORITY OF THE INTERESTS OF THE RECEIVABLES PURCHASER IN THE RECEIVABLES OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, IN RESPECT THEREOF, ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. 32 (b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY; PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE RECEIVABLES PURCHASER FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE RECEIVABLES COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE ORIGINATOR ARISING HEREUNDER, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF RECEIVABLES PURCHASER.

NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW. (c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN 33 CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

AFC RECEIVABLES HOLDING CORPORATION By: --------------------------------------------- Name: ------------------------------------------- Title: ------------------------------------------ ADVANCE FUNDING CORPORATION By: --------------------------------------------- Name: ------------------------------------------- Title: ------------------------------------------ Exhibit 2.1(c) FORM OF SUBORDINATED NOTE [_____ __, 2001] FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, ADVANCE FUNDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), hereby promises to pay to the order of AFC RECEIVABLES HOLDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the "Subordinated Lender"), or its assigns, at c/o Entity Services, 103 Foulk Road, Suite 222, Wilmington, Delaware 19803, or at such other place as the holder of this Subordinated Note ("Note") may designate from time to time in writing, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Subordinated Loans (as defined in the Sale Agreement referred to below) made to the Borrower, upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Final Purchase Date and (ii) the Termination Date (in each case, as defined in Annex X to the the Sale Agreement referred to below), together with interest thereon at the Prime Rate (the "Interest Rate") on the unpaid principal amount of each Subordinated Loan for the period commencing on and including the date of such Subordinated Loan to but excluding the date such Subordinated Loan is paid in full. The date, amount and interest rate of each Subordinated Loan made by the Subordinated Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Subordinated Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of this Note, endorsed by the Subordinated Lender on the schedule attached hereto or any continuation thereof. The books of the Subordinated Lender and such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to the Subordinated Lender by the Borrower; provided; that any failure of the Subordinated Lender to record a notation in its books or on the schedule to this Note as aforesaid or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay Subordinated Loans in accordance with their respective terms set forth herein. All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement of even date herewith (as the same may be subsequently amended, restated or otherwise modified, the "Sale Agreement") by and among the Borrower, the Subordinated Lender and ADVP Management L.P. This Note is issued pursuant to the Sale Agreement and is the Subordinated Note referred to therein. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sale Agreement and all other instruments evidencing the indebtedness hereunder, including the other Related Documents, are hereby made a part of this Note and are deemed incorporated herein in full. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time upon prior written notice to the Subordinated Lender voluntarily repay, in whole or in part, all Subordinated Loans made hereunder. Any amount so repaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed hereunder; provided, that all repayments of Subordinated Loans or any portion thereof shall be made together with payment of all interest accrued on the amount repaid to (but excluding) the date of such repayment. Any such notice must be given in writing on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the day the proposed Subordinated Loan is to be repaid (which shall be a Business Day). Each such notice of repayment shall specify the amount of Subordinated Loans to be repaid and the repayment date thereof. Interest shall be payable on the outstanding principal amount of this Note from time to time in arrears on the first Business Day of each month. All computations of interest shall be made by the Lender on the basis of a 365 day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. The Interest Rate shall be determined (i) on the first Business Day immediately prior to the date any Subordinated Loan is made for calculation of the Interest Rate for the period from the date such Subordinated Loan is made through the end of the first calendar month following such date, and (ii) as of the last Business Day of each month for use in calculating the interest that is payable for the following calendar month, and the Interest Rate so determined shall be utilized for such calendar month. Each determination by the Subordinated Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error). The Borrower shall pay interest at the applicable Interest Rate on unpaid interest on any Subordinated Loan or any installment thereof, and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder (to the extent permitted by law) that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) for the period commencing on the due date thereof to (but excluding) the date the same is indefeasibly paid in full. If any payment or prepayment on this Note becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the Interest Rate during such extension. As set forth below, the indebtedness evidenced by this Subordinated Note is subordinate in right of payment to all "Seller Secured Obligations" (as defined in Annex X of the Sale Agreement) and all renewals, extensions, refinancings or refundings of any such obligations (whether for principal, interest (including but not limited to interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding (each, an "Insolvency Proceeding") whether or not such interest is allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, indemnities, repurchase price, expenses or otherwise) (collectively, the "Senior Obligations"). The subordination provisions contained herein are for the direct benefit of, and may be enforced by, any holder of a Senior Obligation, and may not be terminated, amended or otherwise revoked until the Senior Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Related Documents terminated in accordance with their respective terms. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event, the Subordinated Lender shall not demand, accelerate, sue for, take, receive or accept from the Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or any other manner (including, without limitation, from or by way of collateral) any payment of or security for all or any part of the indebtedness under this Subordinated Note or exercise any remedies or take any action or proceeding to enforce the same. The Subordinated Lender hereby agrees that prior to the date that is one year and one day after all of the Senior Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Related Documents terminated in accordance with their respective terms, the Subordinated Lender will not take any action to institute any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Borrower or which would be reasonably likely to cause the Borrower to be subject to, or seek the protection of, any such Insolvency Proceeding. If the Borrower becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, then the holders of the Senior Obligations shall receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or with respect to the Senior Obligations before the Subordinated Lender shall be entitled to receive any payment on account of this Subordinated Note. Accordingly, any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, in any applicable Insolvency Proceeding, that would otherwise be payable to or deliverable upon or with respect to any or all indebtedness under this Subordinated Note, is hereby assigned to and shall be paid or delivered by the person making such payment or delivery (whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Administrative Agent for application to, or as collateral for the payment of, the Senior Obligations until such Senior Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Subordinated Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"). In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Subordinated Lender has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the amount of interest payable to Subordinated Lender hereunder is less than the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Subordinated Lender from the making of Subordinated Loans hereunder is equal to the total interest that Subordinated Lender would have received had the amount of interest payable to Subordinated Lender hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) paid. Thereafter, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be the amount determined in accordance with the terms hereof unless and until the amount so calculated again exceeds the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by Subordinated 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. In the event the amount payable under 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. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of this Note, shall make a final determination that Subordinated Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, Subordinated Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess first to any interest due and not yet paid hereunder, then to the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Loans, then to fees and any other unpaid charges, and thereafter shall refund any excess to the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. Wherever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or remaining provisions of this Note. Time is of the essence of this Note. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Note. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE BORROWER HERETO WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS NOTE, THE SALE AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICT OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has caused this Note to be signed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the date set forth above.

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Lender may, at any time, demand payment of principal for the following reasons: (A) to avoid a capital contribution under Section 2.1 of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, and (B) for the payment of any taxes or operating expenses which may be incurred by the Lender. The date, amount and interest rate of the Parent Loan made by the Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Lender on its books and, prior to any transfer of this Note, endorsed by the Lender on the schedule attached hereto or any continuation thereof. The books of the Lender and such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to the Lender by the Borrower; provided; that any failure of the Lender to record a notation in its books or on the schedule to this Note as aforesaid or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Parent Loan in accordance with the terms set forth herein. All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement of even date herewith (as the same may be subsequently amended, restated or otherwise modified, the "Sale Agreement") by and among the Lender, the Borrower, ADVP Management L.P. and Advance Funding Corporation. This Note is issued pursuant to the Sale Agreement and is the Parent Note referred to therein. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sale Agreement and all other instruments evidencing the indebtedness hereunder, including the other Related Documents, are hereby made a part of this Note and are deemed incorporated herein in full. Interest shall be payable on the outstanding principal amount of this Note monthly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. All computations of interest shall be made by the Lender on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. The Interest Rate shall be determined (i) on the first Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date for calculation of the Interest Rate for the period from the Closing Date through the end of the first calendar month following the Closing Date, and (ii) as of the last Business Day of each month for use in calculating the interest that is payable for the following calendar month, and the Interest Rate so determined shall be utilized for such calendar month. Each determination by the Lender of an interest rate hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error). The Borrower shall pay interest at the applicable Interest Rate on unpaid interest on the Parent Loan or any installment thereof, and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder (to the extent permitted by law) that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) for the period commencing on the due date thereof to (but excluding) the date the same is indefeasibly paid in full. If any payment or repayment on this Note becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the Interest Rate during such extension. In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"). In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Lender has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the amount of interest payable to Lender hereunder is less than the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Lender from the making of the Parent Loan hereunder is equal to the total interest that Lender would have received had the amount of interest payable to Lender hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) paid. Thereafter, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be the amount determined in accordance with the terms hereof unless and until the amount so calculated again exceeds the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event 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. In the event the amount payable under 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. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of this Note, shall make a final determination 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 first to any interest due and not yet paid hereunder, then to the outstanding principal amount of the Parent Loans, then to fees and any other unpaid charges, and thereafter shall refund any excess to the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Lender, as the holder of this Note, and the Borrower, as the maker of this Note, hereby represents, warrants and covenants as to the following: (a) there shall be no set-off right between amounts due under this Note and amounts due to or from the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to any Person in respect of any of the Receivables, under the Parent Guaranty and/or any other obligation of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, (b) the obligation represented by this Note shall not be secured by any Receivable or any other asset of the Borrower, (c) notwithstanding this Note and any transfer of any Receivables or any other property to the Lender from the Originator, any such transfer of a Receivable or any other property is not, and will not be made in extinguishment of or to secure an obligation of the Borrower to repay any amount at any time due under this Note or the Intercompany Note. Furthermore, the Borrower hereby waives its right to assert any claim contrary to clause (c) above. Wherever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or remaining provisions of this Note.

In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"). In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that Lender has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the amount of interest payable to Lender hereunder is less than the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Lender from the making of Intercompany Loans hereunder is equal to the total interest that Lender would have received had the amount of interest payable to Lender hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) paid. Thereafter, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be the amount determined in accordance with the terms hereof unless and until the amount so calculated again exceeds the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event 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. In the event the amount payable under 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. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of this Note, shall make a final determination 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 first to any interest due and not yet paid hereunder, then to the outstanding principal amount of the Intercompany Loans, then to fees and any other unpaid charges, and thereafter shall refund any excess to the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Lender, as the holder of this Note, and the Borrower as the maker of this Note, hereby represents, warrants and covenants as to the following: (a) there shall be no set-off right between amounts due under this Note and amounts due to or from the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to any Person in respect of any of the Receivables, under the Parent Guaranty and/or any other obligation of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, (b) the obligation represented by this Note shall not be secured by any Receivable or any other asset of the Borrower, (c) notwithstanding this Note and any transfer of any Receivables or any other property to the Lender from the Originator, any such transfer of a Receivable or any other property is not, and will not be made in extinguishment of or to secure an obligation of the Borrower to repay any amount at any time due under this Note or the Parent Note. Furthermore, the Borrower hereby waives its right to assert any claim contrary to clause (c) above. Wherever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or remaining provisions of this Note. Time is of the essence of this Note. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Note. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE BORROWER HERETO WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS NOTE, THE SALE AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICT OF LAWS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has caused this Note to be signed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the date set forth above.
