SECTION 1.    Unconditional Undertaking; Enforcement. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes, agrees and assures for the benefit of the Purchaser and its permitted assigns and participants (the “Beneficiaries”) to cause the due and punctual payment, performance and observance by each Guaranteed Entity of all the terms, covenants, indemnities, conditions, agreements, undertakings, liabilities and other obligations on the part of such Guaranteed Entity to be paid, performed or observed by it under the Purchase Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guaranteed Entity is a party and each other document executed and delivered by such Guaranteed Entity in connection with any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the punctual payment when due of all obligations of any Guaranteed Entity now or hereafter existing under the Purchase Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any such other agreement, whether for Events of Repurchase, indemnification payments, fees or expenses or otherwise, and the performance of any of its duties as Seller, Servicer or otherwise, in each case on the terms set forth in the applicable Transaction Documents as the same shall be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise

modified and in effect from time to time (all such terms, covenants, indemnities, conditions, agreements, undertakings and other obligations being collectively called the “Obligations”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor, agrees that if any Guaranteed Entity shall fail in any manner whatsoever to pay, perform or observe any of its Obligations when the same shall be required to be paid, performed or observed under the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any such other agreement, then the Guarantor will itself duly and punctually pay, perform or observe any of such Obligations or cause to be duly and punctually paid, performed or observed such Obligations. It shall not be a condition to the accrual of the obligation of the Guarantor hereunder to pay, perform or observe (or to cause the same to be paid, performed or observed), any Obligation that the Purchaser, the Seller or any other Person shall have first made any request of or demand upon or given any notice to the Guarantor, any Guaranteed Entity or any of their respective successors, assigns or have instituted any action or proceeding against the Guarantor, any Guaranteed Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns in respect thereof. The Purchaser may proceed to enforce the obligations of the Guarantor under this Undertaking without first pursuing or exhausting any right or remedy which the Purchaser may have against any Guaranteed Entity, the Seller, any other Person, the Receivables or any other collateral or property. The Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Undertaking shall be absolute and irrevocable. It is expressly acknowledged that this Undertaking is not a guarantee of the payment of any Receivables and there shall be no recourse to the Guarantor (i) for any non-payment or delay in payment of any Receivables or losses in respect of Receivables, in each case, that are uncollectible solely on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, lack of creditworthiness or other financial inability to pay of the related Account Debtor or (ii) for any Obligations the payment of which would constitute recourse to the Guarantor for uncollectible Receivables solely by reason of an Insolvency Event, or the financial or credit condition or financial default, of the related Account Debtor. For the avoidance of doubt, this Undertaking and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder shall apply to each Seller and Servicer party to the Purchase Agreement from time to time, whether or not such Seller or Servicer is an Affiliate of the Guarantor.

SECTION 2.    Obligation Absolute. (a) The Guarantor undertakes that the Obligations will be performed or paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Purchaser or any of its respective successors or assigns with respect thereto. The obligations of the Guarantor under this Undertaking are independent of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor to enforce this Undertaking, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Guaranteed Entities or whether the Guaranteed Entities are joined in any such action or actions.

The liability of the Guarantor under this Undertaking shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(i)    any lack of validity, enforceability, avoidance, subordination, discharge, or disaffirmance by any Person of the Purchase Agreement or any other agreement or instrument executed by the Guaranteed Entities relating thereto (including, without limitation, any amendment, supplement, joinder or similar agreement pursuant to which an entity joins or proposed to join the Purchase Agreement as a Seller or a Servicer or otherwise);

(ii)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Purchase Agreement, any Transaction Document or any other agreement or instrument executed by the Guaranteed Entities relating thereto, including, without limitation, any increase

in, or other modification of, the Obligations resulting from additional purchases of Receivables or otherwise;

(iii)    the absence of any attempt by the Purchaser to collect on any Receivables or to realize upon the Purchased Receivables, the Related Rights or any other property or collateral, or to obtain performance or observance of the Obligations from the Guaranteed Entities or the Seller or any other Person;

    (iv)     any waiver, consent, change, amendment, restatement, modification, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence or other similar criteria: (a) by the Purchaser or any other criteria with respect to any provision of any agreement or instrument evidencing or establishing the Obligations or (b) with respect to any of the Transaction Documents;

    (v)     any law, rule, regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term or provision of any of the Obligations or the Transaction Documents, or rights of the Purchaser with respect thereto;

    (vi)     the failure by the Purchaser to take any steps to perfect and maintain perfected its interest in, or the impairment or release of, any of the Purchased Receivables, Related Rights or other property or in any security or collateral related to the Obligations or the Transaction Documents;

    (vii)     any failure to obtain any consent, authorization, approval or license from or other action by or to notify or file with, any governmental authority required in connection with the performance of the obligations hereunder by the Guarantor;

    (viii)     any impossibility or impracticability of performance, illegality, force majeure, any act of government, or other circumstances which might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of any Guaranteed Entity or the Guarantor, or any other circumstance, event or happening whatsoever whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar to or dissimilar to anything referred to above;

    (ix)     any manner of application of the Purchased Receivables, Related Rights or any other assets of any Guaranteed Entity or the Seller, or proceeds of any of the foregoing, to satisfy all or any of the Obligations or as otherwise permitted under the Transaction Documents, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Purchased Receivables or other collateral for all or any of the Obligations or as otherwise provided under the Transaction Documents;

    (x)     any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Guaranteed Entity, the Seller or the Guarantor or any other Person or the equity ownership, existence, control, merger, consolidation or sale, lease or transfer of any of the assets of any such Person, or any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up, dissolution, liquidation, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors, arrangement, composition, readjustment or reorganization of, or similar proceedings affecting, any Guaranteed Entity, the Seller or any of their assets or obligations; and

    (xi)    any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guaranteed Entities, a parent, a surety or a guarantor.

(b)    Should any money due or owing under this Undertaking not be recoverable from the Guarantor due to any of the matters specified in this Section 2, then, in any such case, such money shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, nevertheless be recoverable from the Guarantor as though the Guarantor were principal debtor in respect thereof and not merely a surety and shall be paid by the Guarantor forthwith. The Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that any Guaranteed Entity, the Seller or any other Person makes a payment or payments to the Purchaser in respect of any Obligation, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, rescinded, set aside and/or required to be repaid or returned to such Guaranteed Entity, the Seller or other Person, as applicable, or to the estate, trustee, or receiver of any Guaranteed Entity, the Seller or any other Person, including, without limitation, the Guarantor, under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the Obligations or any part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated in full and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

(c)    Anything contained in this Undertaking to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Guarantor’s liability or obligation under this Undertaking, including with respect to all costs, fees, expenses, indemnity obligations, claims for losses or damages, claims for reimbursement, claims under Section 1 hereof, liability for Obligations, and for all other claims, rights, liabilities or demands arising hereunder, exceed, on any date of determination, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Net Receivables Balance of all Purchased Receivables on such date and (ii) ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY MILLION US DOLLARS ($160,000,000) in aggregate (such aggregate based on all amounts paid by the Guarantor to the Purchaser pursuant to this Undertaking).

(b)    The Guarantor waives all set-offs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands of performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Undertaking. The Guarantor’s obligations under this Undertaking shall not be limited if the Purchaser is precluded for any reason (including, without limitation, the application of the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code) from enforcing or exercising any right or remedy with respect to the Obligations, and the Guarantor shall perform or observe, upon demand, the Obligations that would otherwise have been due and performable or observable by any Guaranteed Entity had such right and remedies been permitted to be exercised.
