AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree that, subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.1, the Existing Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

ARTICLE I
PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Seller may, at its option, sell and assign Purchaser Interests to the Agent for the benefit of one or more of the Purchasers. In accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Company may, at its option, instruct the Agent to purchase on behalf of such Company, or if any Company shall decline to purchase, the Agent shall purchase, on behalf of such declining Company’s Related Financial Institutions, Purchaser Interests from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at such time the lesser of (i) the Purchase Limit and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Facility Termination Date.

Section 1.2 Increases. Seller shall provide the Agent, by 3:00 p.m. (Chicago time) at least two Business Days prior to the date of each Incremental Purchase, with prior written notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of such Incremental Purchase (a “Purchase Notice”). Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof (and, in the case of the initial Purchase Notice, Section 6.1) and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price (which shall not be less than $10,000,000) and date of purchase and, in the case of an Incremental Purchase to be funded by any of the Financial Institutions, the requested Discount Rate and Tranche Period. Following receipt of a Purchase Notice, the Agent will promptly notify each Company of such Purchase Notice after the Agent’s receipt thereof and the Agent will identify the Companies that agree to make the purchase. If any Company declines to make a proposed purchase, Seller may cancel the Purchase Notice as to all Purchasers or, in the absence of such a cancellation, the Incremental Purchase of the Purchaser Interests, which such Company has declined to purchase, will be made by such declining Company’s Related Financial Institutions in accordance with the rest of this Section 1.2. If the proposed Incremental Purchase or any portion thereof is to be made by any of the Financial Institutions, the Agent shall send notice of the proposed Incremental Purchase to the applicable Financial Institutions concurrently by telecopier, telex or cable specifying (i) the date of such Incremental Purchase, which date must be at least one Business Day after such notice is received by the applicable Financial Institutions, (ii) each Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group are then purchasing and (iii) the requested Discount Rate and the requested Tranche Period. On the date of each Incremental Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI and the conditions set forth in this Section 1.2, the Companies and/or the Financial Institutions, as applicable, shall deposit to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time), an amount equal to (i) in the case of a Company that has agreed to make such Incremental Purchase, such Company’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests of such Incremental Purchase or (ii) in the case of a Financial Institution, such Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group are then purchasing. Each Financial Institution’s Commitment hereunder shall be limited to purchasing Purchaser Interests that the Company in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group has declined to purchase. Each Financial Institution’s obligation shall be several, such that the failure of any Financial Institution to make available to Seller any funds in connection with any purchase shall not relieve any other Financial Institution of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make funds available on the date of such purchase, but no Financial Institution shall be responsible for the failure of any other Financial Institution to make funds available in connection with any purchase.

Section 1.3 Decreases. Seller shall provide the Agent with prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period (a “Reduction Notice”) of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Capital from Collections and the Agent will promptly notify each Purchaser of such Reduction Notice after the Agent’s receipt thereof. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Capital shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and (ii) the amount of Aggregate Capital to be reduced which shall be applied ratably to the Purchaser Interests of the Companies and the Financial Institutions in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to the Companies (ratably, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares), on the one hand, and the amount of Capital (if any) owing to the Financial Institutions (ratably to each Financial Institution, based on the ratio of such Financial Institution’s Capital at such time to the aggregate Capital of all of the Financial Institutions at such time), on the other hand (the “Aggregate Reduction”). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time. Concurrently with any reduction of Aggregate Capital pursuant to this Section, Seller shall pay to the applicable Purchaser all Broken Funding Costs arising as a result of such reduction. No Aggregate Reduction will be made following the occurrence of the Amortization Date without the consent of the Agent.

Section 1.4 Payment Requirements. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to a Purchaser, they shall be paid to the Agent, for the account of such Purchaser, at 1 Bank One Plaza, Chicago, Illinois 60670 until otherwise notified by the Agent, and the Agent agrees to remit any such amounts received to the applicable Purchaser. If such amounts are payable to the Agent, they shall be paid to the Agent at 1 Bank One Plaza, Chicago, Illinois 60670 until otherwise notified by the Agent. Upon notice to Seller, the Agent (on behalf of itself and/or any Purchaser) may debit the Facility Account for all amounts due and payable hereunder. All computations of Yield, per annum fees or discount calculated as part of any CP Costs, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letters shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

ARTICLE II
PAYMENTS AND COLLECTIONS

Section 2.1 Payments. Notwithstanding any limitation on recourse contained in this Agreement, Seller shall immediately pay to the Agent or relevant Purchaser, as applicable, when due, for the account of the Agent or the relevant Purchaser or Purchasers on a full recourse basis, (i) such fees as set forth in the Fee Letters (which fees collectively shall be sufficient to pay all fees owing to the Financial Institutions), (ii) all CP Costs, (iii) all amounts payable as Yield, (iv) all amounts payable as Deemed Collections (which shall be immediately due and payable by Seller and applied to reduce outstanding Aggregate Capital hereunder in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof), (v) all amounts required pursuant to Section 2.6, (vi) all amounts payable pursuant to Article X, if any, (vii) all Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, (viii) all Broken Funding Costs and (ix) all Default Fees (collectively, the “Obligations”). If any Person fails to pay any of the Obligations when due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Agreement or the Fee Letters shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amounts hereunder in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. If at any time Seller receives any Collections or is deemed to receive any Collections, Seller shall immediately pay such Collections or Deemed Collections to the Servicer for application in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and, at all times prior to such payment, such Collections or Deemed Collections shall be held in trust by Seller for the exclusive benefit of the Purchasers and the Agent.

Section 2.2 Collections Prior to Amortization. Prior to the Amortization Date, any Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by the Servicer shall be set aside and held in trust by the Servicer for the benefit of the Agent and the Purchasers for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section 2.2. If at any time any Collections and/or Deemed Collections are received by the Servicer prior to the Amortization Date, (i) the Servicer shall set aside the Termination Percentage (hereinafter defined) of Collections evidenced by the Purchaser Interests of each Terminating Financial Institution, shall set aside Collections to be used to effect any Aggregate Reduction in accordance with Section 1.3 and shall set aside amounts necessary to pay Obligations due on the next succeeding Settlement Date and (ii) Seller hereby requests and the Purchasers (other than any Terminating Financial Institutions) hereby agree to make, simultaneously with such receipt, a reinvestment (each a “Reinvestment”) with that portion of the balance of each and every Collection and Deemed Collection received by the Servicer that is part of any Purchaser Interest (other than any Purchaser Interests of Terminating Financial Institutions), such that after giving effect to such Reinvestment, the amount of Capital of such Purchaser Interest immediately after such receipt and corresponding Reinvestment shall be equal to the amount of Capital immediately prior to such receipt (but giving effect to any ratable reduction thereof pursuant to application of an Aggregate Reduction). On each Settlement Date prior to the occurrence of the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall remit to the Agent’s or applicable Purchaser’s account the amounts set aside during the preceding Settlement Period that have not been subject to a Reinvestment and apply such amounts (if not previously paid in accordance with Section 2.1) first, to reduce unpaid Obligations and second, to reduce the Capital of all Purchaser Interests of Terminating Financial Institutions, applied ratably to each Terminating Financial Institution according to its respective Termination Percentage. If such Capital and Obligations shall be reduced to zero, any additional Collections received by the Servicer (i) if applicable, shall be remitted to the Agent’s or applicable Purchaser’s account no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) to the extent required to fund any Aggregate Reduction on such Settlement Date and (ii) any balance remaining thereafter shall be remitted from the Servicer to Seller on such Settlement Date. Each Terminating Financial Institution shall be allocated a ratable portion of Collections from the Liquidity Termination Date that such Terminating Financial Institution did not consent to extend (as to such Terminating Financial Institution, the “Liquidity Provider Termination Date”), until such Terminating Financial Institution’s Capital shall be paid in full. This ratable portion shall be calculated on the Liquidity Provider Termination Date of each Terminating Financial Institution as a percentage equal to (i) Capital of such Terminating Financial Institution outstanding on its Liquidity Provider Termination Date, divided by (ii) the Aggregate Capital outstanding on such Liquidity Provider Termination Date (the “Termination Percentage”). Each Terminating Financial Institution’s Termination Percentage shall remain constant prior to the Amortization Date. On and after the Amortization Date, each Termination Percentage shall be disregarded, and each Terminating Financial Institution’s Capital shall be reduced ratably with all Financial Institutions in accordance with Section 2.3.

Section 2.3 Collections Following Amortization. On the Amortization Date and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the holder of each Purchaser Interest, all Collections received on such day and an additional amount for the payment of any Aggregate Unpaids owed by Seller and not previously paid by Seller in accordance with Section 2.1. On and after the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall, at any time upon the request from time to time by (or pursuant to standing instructions from) the Agent (i) remit to the Agent’s or applicable Purchaser’s account the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (ii) apply such amounts to reduce the Capital associated with each such Purchaser Interest and any other Aggregate Unpaids.

Section 2.4 Application of Collections. If there shall be insufficient funds on deposit for the Servicer to distribute funds in payment in full of the aforementioned amounts pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 (as applicable), the Servicer shall distribute funds:

first, to the payment of the Servicer’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, including the Servicing Fee, if Seller or one of its Affiliates is not then acting as the Servicer,

second, to the reimbursement of the Agent’s and the Purchasers’ costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

third, ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letters, CP Costs and Yield,

fourth, (to the extent applicable) to the ratable reduction of the Aggregate Capital (without regard to any Termination Percentage),

fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations, provided that to the extent such Obligations relate to the payment of Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, when Seller or one of its Affiliates is acting as the Servicer, such costs and expenses will not be paid until after the payment in full of all other Obligations, and

sixth, after the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Seller.

Collections applied to the payment of Aggregate Unpaids shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth in Section 2.4 above, shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent and the Purchasers in accordance with the amount of such Aggregate Unpaids owing to each of them in respect of each such priority.

Section 2.5 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 the Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus the Default Fee from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Section 2.6 Maximum Purchaser Interests. In accordance with this Section 2.6, Seller shall ensure that the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers shall at no time exceed in the aggregate 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100%. If as of the date of any Weekly Report or Monthly Report the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers exceeds 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100%, Seller shall pay to the Purchasers (ratably based on the ratio of each Purchaser’s Capital at such time to the Aggregate Capital at such time) within one (1) Business Day an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Capital, such that after giving effect to such payment the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests equals or is less than 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100%. If at any time (other than as of the date of any Weekly Report or Monthly Report) the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers exceeds 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100%, Seller shall pay to the Purchasers (ratably based on the ratio of each Purchaser’s Capital at such time to the Aggregate Capital at such time) within five (5) Business Days an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Capital, such that after giving effect to such payment the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests equals or is less than 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100%.

Section 2.7 Repurchase Option. In addition to Seller’s rights pursuant to Section 1.3, Seller (so long as Seller is an Affiliate of the Servicer) shall have the right (after providing written notice to the Agent (and upon receipt thereof the Agent will forward such notice to each Purchaser) in accordance with the Required Notice Period), at any time, to repurchase from the Purchasers all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Purchaser 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 repurchase shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against any Purchaser or the Agent.

Section 2.8 Release of Lock-Box Arrangements. After all Aggregate Unpaids have been reduced to zero, the Agent and Purchasers agree that the Collection Account Agreements maintained pursuant to Section 7.1(j) hereof for the benefit of the Purchasers shall be terminated and any amounts remaining in such accounts shall be released to Seller, provided, however, if any amounts paid to the Agent or Purchaser is voided, limited or otherwise required to be disgorged by any Purchaser in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other proceeding, each Seller Party hereby agrees to use its best efforts to reinstate such Lock-Box arrangements and Collection Account Agreements, and hereby grants a power of attorney (which shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to the Agent and hereby authorizes the Agent, on its behalf, to execute Lock-Box arrangements and Collection Account Agreements in the event of any such reinstatement.

ARTICLE III
COMPANY FUNDING

Section 3.1 CP Costs. Seller shall pay CP Costs with respect to the Capital associated with each Purchaser Interest of the Companies for each day that any Capital in respect of any such Purchaser Interest is outstanding.

On each Settlement Date, Seller shall pay to each Company an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid Company Costs in respect of the Capital associated with all Purchaser Interests of such Company for the immediately preceding Accrual Period in accordance with Article II.

Section 3.3 Calculation of CP Costs. On the fifth Business Day immediately preceding each Settlement Date, each Company shall calculate the aggregate amount of its Company Costs for the applicable Accrual Period and shall notify the Agent of such aggregate amount. Within two (2) Business Days of the Agent’s receipt of notification of such Company Costs for all Companies, the Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs due and payable on the applicable Settlement Date and shall notify Seller of the aggregate amount of the CP Costs due and payable on the applicable Settlement Date and shall notify Seller of the aggregate amount of the Company Costs due and payable on such Settlement Date to each Company.

ARTICLE IV
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION FUNDING

Section 4.1 Financial Institution Funding. Each Purchaser Interest of the Financial Institutions shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Alternative Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Seller gives notice to the Agent of a change in the rate applicable to the Discount Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred to the Financial Institutions pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall be the Alternative Base Rate. If any Purchaser Interest of any Company is assigned or transferred to, or funded by, any Funding Source of such Company pursuant to any Funding Agreement or to or by any other Person, each such Purchaser Interest so assigned, transferred or funded shall each be deemed to have a new Tranche Period commencing on the date of any such transfer or funding and shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Alternative Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof as if each such Purchaser Interest was held by a Financial Institution, and with respect to each such Purchaser Interest, the assignee or transferee thereof or lender with respect thereto shall be deemed to be a Financial Institution in the transferring Company’s Purchaser Group solely for the purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5.

Section 4.2 Yield Payments. On the Settlement Date for each Purchaser Interest of each Financial Institution, Seller shall pay to each Financial Institution an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid Yield for the entire Tranche Period of each Purchaser Interest funded by such Financial Institution. On the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date for each Purchaser Interest of the Financial Institutions, each Financial Institution shall calculate the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid Yield for the entire Tranche Period of each Purchaser Interest funded by such Financial Institution and shall notify the Agent of such aggregate amount. Within two Business Days of the Agent’s receipt of notification of such applicable Yield for all Financial Institutions, the Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of Yield due and payable on the applicable Settlement Date and shall notify Seller of the aggregate amount of Yield due and payable on such Settlement Date to each Financial Institution.

Section 4.3 Selection and Continuation of Tranche Periods.

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the applicable Financial Institution, Seller shall from time to time request Tranche Periods for the Purchaser Interests of the Financial Institutions, provided that, if at any time the Financial Institutions shall have a Purchaser Interest, Seller shall always request Tranche Periods such that at least one Tranche Period shall end on the date specified in clause (A) of the definition of Settlement Date.

(b) Seller or the applicable Financial Institution, upon notice to and consent by the other received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of a Tranche Period (the “Terminating Tranche”) for any Purchaser Interest, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Purchaser Interest into multiple Purchaser Interests by subdividing the associated Capital for such Purchaser Interest into smaller amounts of Capital, (ii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with one or more other Purchaser Interests that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche by combining the associated Capital for such Purchaser Interests or (iii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with a new Purchaser Interest to be purchased on the day such Terminating Tranche ends by combining the associated Capital for such Purchaser Interests; provided that in no event may a Purchaser Interest of any Purchaser be combined with a Purchaser Interest of any other Purchaser.

Section 4.4 Financial Institution Discount Rates. Seller may select the LIBO Rate or the Alternative Base Rate for each Purchaser Interest of the Financial Institutions. Seller shall by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time): (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Discount Rate and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Alternative Base Rate is being requested as a new Discount Rate, give the applicable Financial Institution irrevocable notice of the new Discount Rate for the Purchaser Interest associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Seller gives notice to the applicable Financial Institution (or Funding Source) of another Discount Rate, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred to the Financial Institutions pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof (or assigned or transferred to, or funded by, any Funding Source pursuant to any Funding Agreement or to or by any other Person) shall be the Alternative Base Rate.

Section 4.5 Suspension of the LIBO Rate. If any Financial Institution notifies the Agent that it has determined that funding its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group at the LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Purchaser Interests at the LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) the LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Purchaser Interest at the LIBO Rate, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of the LIBO Rate for the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group and require Seller to select the Alternative Base Rate for any Purchaser Interest funded by the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group accruing Yield at the LIBO Rate.

Section 4.6 Extension of Liquidity Termination Date.

(a) Seller may request one or more 364-day extensions of the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect by giving written notice of such request to the Agent (each such notice an “Extension Notice”) at least 60 days prior to the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect. After the Agent’s receipt of any Extension Notice, the Agent shall promptly advise each Financial Institution of such Extension Notice. Each Financial Institution may, in its sole discretion, by a revocable notice (a “Consent Notice”) given to the Agent on or prior to the 30th day prior to the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect (such period from the date of the Extension Notice to such 30th day being referred to herein as the “Consent Period”), consent to such extension of such Liquidity Termination Date; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 4.6(b), such extension shall not be effective with respect to any of the Financial Institutions if any one or more Financial Institutions: (i) notifies the Agent during the Consent Period that such Financial Institution either does not wish to consent to such extension or wishes to revoke its prior Consent Notice or (ii) fails to respond to the Agent within the Consent Period (each Financial Institution that does not wish to consent to such extension or wishes to revoke its prior Consent Notice or fails to respond to the Agent within the Consent Period is herein referred to as a “Non-Renewing Financial Institution”). If none of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) occurs during the Consent Period and all Consent Notices have been received, then, the Liquidity Termination Date shall be irrevocably extended until the date that is 364 days after the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect. The Agent shall promptly notify Seller of any Consent Notice or other notice received by the Agent pursuant to this Section 4.6(a).

(b) Upon receipt of notice from the Agent pursuant to Section 4.6(a) of any Non-Renewing Financial Institution or that the Liquidity Termination Date has not been extended, one or more of the Financial Institutions (including any Non-Renewing Financial Institution) may proffer to the Agent and the Company in such Non-Renewing Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group the names of one or more institutions meeting the criteria set forth in Section 12.1(b)(i) that are willing to accept assignments of and assume the rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents of the Non-Renewing Financial Institution. Provided the proffered name(s) are acceptable to the Agent and the Company in such Non-Renewing Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group, the Agent shall notify the remaining Financial Institutions of such fact, and the then existing Liquidity Termination Date shall be extended for an additional 364 days upon satisfaction of the conditions for an assignment in accordance with Section 12.1 and the Commitment of each Non-Renewing Financial Institution shall be reduced to zero. If the rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents of each Non-Renewing Financial Institution are not assigned as contemplated by this Section 4.6(b) (each such Non-Renewing Financial Institution whose rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents are not so assigned is herein referred to as a “Terminating Financial Institution”) and at least one Financial Institution is not a Non-Renewing Financial Institution, the then existing Liquidity Termination Date shall be extended for an additional 364 days; provided, however, that (i) the Purchase Limit shall be reduced on the Liquidity Provider Termination Date applicable to each Terminating Financial Institution by an aggregate amount equal to the Terminating Commitment Availability of each Terminating Financial Institution as of such date and shall thereafter continue to be reduced by amounts equal to any reduction in the Capital of any Terminating Financial Institution (after application of Collections pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3), (ii) the Company Purchase Limit of each Company shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the Terminating Commitment Amount of each Terminating Financial Institution in such Company’s Purchaser Group and (iii) the Commitment of each Terminating Financial Institution shall be reduced to zero on the Liquidity Provider Termination Date applicable to such Terminating Financial Institution. Upon reduction to zero of the Capital of all of the Purchaser Interests of a Terminating Financial Institution (after application of Collections thereto pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3) all rights and obligations of such Terminating Financial Institution hereunder shall be terminated and such Terminating Financial Institution shall no longer be a “Financial Institution”; provided, however, that the provisions of Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to Purchaser Interests held by such Terminating Financial Institution prior to its termination as a Financial Institution.

(c) Any requested extension may be approved or disapproved by a Financial Institution in its sole discretion. In the event that the Commitments are not extended in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.6, the Commitment of each Financial Institution shall be reduced to zero on the Liquidity Termination Date. Upon reduction to zero of the Commitment of a Financial Institution and upon reduction to zero of the Capital of all of the Purchaser Interests of such Financial Institution all rights and obligations of such Financial Institution hereunder shall be terminated and such Financial Institution shall no longer be a “Financial Institution”; provided, however, that the provisions of Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to Purchaser Interests held by such Financial Institution prior to its termination as a Financial Institution.

(f) Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Seller Party is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Seller Party enforceable against such Seller Party in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(g) Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore furnished by such Seller Party or any of its Affiliates to the Agent or the Purchasers for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by such Seller Party or any of its Affiliates to the Agent or the Purchasers will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.

Seller has taken all steps necessary to ensure that the Agent has “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) over all its Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes.

(m) Material Adverse Effect. (i) The initial Servicer represents and warrants that since March 31, 2001, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the initial Servicer and its Subsidiaries or the ability of the initial Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) Seller represents and warrants that since June 28, 2001, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or operations of Seller, (B) the ability of Seller to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or (C) the collectibility of the Receivables generally or any material portion of the Receivables.

(n) Names. In the past five (5) years, Seller has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement.

Such Seller Party is not a “holding company” or a “subsidiary holding company” of a “holding company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, or any successor statute. Such Seller Party is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.

(q) Compliance with Law. Such Seller Party has complied in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Seller represents that each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Seller has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract, and has not made any material change to such Credit and Collection Policy, except as permitted in accordance with Section 7.2(c) and except such material change as to which the Agent has been notified in accordance with Section 7.1(a)(vii).

(s) Payments to Originator. Seller represents that with respect to each Receivable transferred to Seller under the Receivables Sale Agreement, Seller has given reasonably equivalent value to Originator in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. Seller represents that no transfer by Originator of any Receivable under the Receivables Sale Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Seller represents that each Contract with respect to each Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, if any, enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Net Receivables Balance as an Eligible Receivable on the date of its purchase under the Receivables Sale Agreement was an Eligible Receivable on such purchase date.

(v) Aggregate Capital. Seller has determined that, immediately after giving effect to each purchase hereunder, the Aggregate Capital is no greater than 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing immediately before and after giving effect to such purchase, 100% of the amount equal to (i) the Net Receivables Balance, minus (ii) the Aggregate Reserves.

(w) Accounting. The manner in which such Seller Party accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement does not jeopardize the true sale analysis of the sale of Receivables by Originator to Seller.

Section 5.2 Financial Institution Representations and Warranties. Each Financial Institution hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and the Company in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Financial Institution is a corporation or a banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, and has all corporate power to perform its obligations hereunder.

This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Financial Institution.

(c) Governmental Authorization. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by such Financial Institution of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder, except that has already been received.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, Seller will:

(A) conduct its own business in its own name and require that all full-time employees of Seller, if any, identify themselves as such and not as employees of Originator (including, without limitation, by means of providing appropriate employees with business or identification cards identifying such employees as Seller’s employees);

(H) maintain Seller’s books and records separate from those of Originator and any Affiliate thereof and otherwise readily identifiable as its own assets rather than assets of Originator and any Affiliate thereof;

(I) prepare its financial statements separately from those of Originator and insure that any consolidated financial statements of Originator or any Affiliate thereof that include Seller and that are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency have notes clearly stating that Seller is a separate corporate entity and that its assets will be available first and foremost to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Seller;

(J) except as herein specifically otherwise provided, maintain the funds or other assets of Seller separate from, and not commingled with, those of Originator or any Affiliate thereof (other than any Excluded Receivables) and only maintain bank accounts or other depository accounts to which Seller alone is the account party;

(M) maintain its corporate charter in conformity with this Agreement, such that (1) it does not amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws in any respect that would impair its ability to comply with the terms or provisions of any of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Section 7.1(i) of this Agreement; and (2) its corporate charter, at all times that this Agreement is in effect, provides for not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of the replacement or appointment of any director that is to serve as an Independent Director for purposes of this Agreement and the condition precedent to giving effect to such replacement or appointment that the Seller certify that the designated Person satisfied the criteria set forth in the definition herein of “Independent Director” and the Administrative Agent’s written acknowledgement that in its reasonable judgment the designated Person satisfies the criteria set forth in the definition herein of “Independent Director;”

(N) maintain the effectiveness of, and continue to perform under the Receivables Sale Agreement, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement, cancel, terminate or otherwise modify the Receivables Sale Agreement, or give any consent, waiver, directive or approval thereunder or waive any default, action, omission or breach under the Receivables Sale Agreement or otherwise grant any indulgence thereunder, without (in each case) the prior written consent of the Agent and the Required Purchasers;

(j) Collections. Such Seller Party will cause (1) all proceeds from all Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a Collection Account and (2) each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect. In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, Seller will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, Seller will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent and the Purchasers. Seller will maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and control (subject to the terms of this Agreement) of each Lock-Box and Collection Account and shall not grant the right to take dominion and control or establish “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to the Agent as contemplated by this Agreement. With respect to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, Seller shall take all steps necessary to ensure that the Agent has “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) over such Lock-Box or Collection Account. So long as no Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Servicer will be permitted to transfer proceeds from a Lock-Box or Collection Account to another account of Servicer, provided that at all times Servicer will hold such payments or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent and the Purchasers subject to application pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof.

(k) Taxes. Such Seller Party will file all tax returns and reports required by law to be filed by it and will promptly pay all taxes and governmental charges at any time owing. Seller will pay when due any taxes payable in connection with the Receivables, exclusive of taxes on or measured by income or gross receipts of any Company, the Agent or any Financial Institution.

(l) Insurance. Seller will maintain in effect, or cause to be maintained in effect, at Seller’s own expense, such liability insurance as Seller shall deem appropriate in its good faith business judgment. The Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, shall be named as an additional insured with respect to all such liability insurance maintained by Seller. Seller will pay or cause to be paid, the premiums therefor and deliver to the Agent evidence satisfactory to the Agent of such insurance coverage. Copies of each policy shall be furnished to the Agent and any Purchaser in certificated form upon the Agent’s or such Purchaser’s request. The foregoing requirements shall not be construed to negate, reduce or modify, and are in addition to, Seller’s obligations hereunder.

(m) Payment to Originator. With respect to any Receivable purchased by Seller from Originator, such sale shall be effected under, and in strict compliance with the terms of, the Receivables Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms relating to the amount and timing of payments to be made to Originator in respect of the purchase price for such Receivable.

(n) Segregation of Other Servicer Collected Funds. Upon the request of the Agent or any Financial Institution and subject to the Servicer’s ability to do so, the Servicer shall, within six days of the date any Other Servicer Collected Funds are deposited, credited or funded to any Collection Account, (i) specifically identify all such Other Servicer Collected Funds and (ii) cause all Other Servicer Collected Funds to be transferred from the applicable Collection Account.

(o) Elimination of Other Servicer Collected Funds. Within 60 days of the date hereof, each Seller Party shall eliminate all Other Servicer Collected Funds from, and prevent all Other Servicer Collected Funds from being deposited, credited or otherwise funded to, any and all Collection Accounts.

Section 7.2 Negative Covenants of The Seller Parties. Until the date on which the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly paid in full and this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, each Seller Party hereby covenants, as to itself (and not as to any other Seller Party), that:

(a) Name Change, Jurisdiction of Organization, Corporate Structure, Offices and Records. Such Seller Party will not change its name, identity, jurisdiction of organization or corporate structure (within the meaning of Sections 9-503 and/or 9-507 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) or relocate its chief executive office, principal place of business or any office where Records are kept unless it shall have: (i) given the Agent at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii) delivered to the Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents requested by the Agent in connection with such change or relocation.

(b) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Except as may be required by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b), such Seller Party will not add or terminate any bank as a Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, unless the Agent shall have received, at least ten (10) days before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Bank or a Collection Account or Lock-Box, an executed Collection Account Agreement with respect to the new Collection Account or Lock-Box; provided, however, that the Servicer may make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligors to make payments to another existing Collection Account.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Such Seller Party will not make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy that could adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables. Except as provided in Section 8.2(d), the Servicer will not extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any Contract related thereto other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

(d) Sales, Liens. Seller will not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon (including, without limitation, the filing of any financing statement) or with respect to, any of its Receivables, Related Security or Collections, or upon or with respect to any Contract under which any of its Receivables arise, or any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in each case, the creation of the interests therein in favor of the Agent and the Purchasers provided for herein), and Seller will defend the right, title and interest of the Agent and the Purchasers in, to and under any of the foregoing property, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under Seller or Originator.

(e) Aggregate Capital. Other than in compliance with Section 2.6, at no time prior to the Amortization Date shall Seller permit the Aggregate Capital to be greater than 97% or, if the Purchaser Interest Condition is existing at such time, 100% of the amount equal to (i) the Net Receivables Balance, minus (ii) the Aggregate Reserves.

(f) Termination Date Determination. Seller will not designate the Termination Date (as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement), or send any written notice to Originator in respect thereof, without the prior written consent of the Agent, except with respect to the occurrence of such Termination Date arising pursuant to Section 5.1(d) of the Receivables Sale Agreement.

(g) Restricted Junior Payments. From and after the occurrence of any Amortization Event, Seller will not make any Restricted Junior Payment if, after giving effect thereto, Seller would fail to meet its obligations set forth in Section 7.2(e).

ARTICLE VIII
ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

Section 8.1 Designation of 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 8.1. Avnet is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Agent (on behalf of the Purchasers) may, and at the direction of the Required Purchasers shall, at any time after the occurrence of any Amortization Event, designate as Servicer any Person to succeed Avnet or any successor Servicer.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Required Purchasers, Avnet shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Servicer to any Person other than (i) Seller and (ii) with respect to certain Charged-Off Receivables, outside collection agencies or law firms, taking action in connection with collection activities, in accordance with its customary practices. Seller shall not be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by Avnet. If at any time the Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person other than Avnet, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by Avnet to Seller may, at the discretion of the Agent, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Agent to Avnet and to Seller.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) Avnet shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent and the Purchasers for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder (unless a successor servicer has been designated by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof) and (ii) the Agent and the Purchasers shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Avnet in matters relating to the discharge by the Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent and the Purchasers shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Avnet in order for communication to the Servicer and its sub-servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. Avnet, 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 8.2 Duties of 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.

(b) The Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account. The Servicer shall effect a Collection Account Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit VI with each bank party to a Collection Account at any time. In the case of any remittances received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of the Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Servicer shall promptly remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances. From and after the date the Agent delivers to any Collection Bank a Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, the Agent may request that the Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors with respect to the Receivables to, remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the 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. The Agent shall notify each Financial Institution of such new depositary account.

(c) The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Seller and the Purchasers their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, upon the request of the Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the 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. If the Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the 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.

(d) 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 or Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent or the Purchasers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to direct the Servicer to take all actions that a reasonable business person, exercising prudent business judgment, would undertake to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) The Servicer shall hold in trust for Seller and the Purchasers all Records 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, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Agent, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Agent. The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Seller any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness owed to Seller not constituting Receivables. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of 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.

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in connection with any Receivables in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to Originator or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the 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 8.3 Collection Notices. The Agent is authorized at any time after the occurrence of any Amortization Event to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. The Agent agrees to notify the Seller promptly after the delivery of such Collection Notices to the Collection Banks. Seller hereby transfers to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers, effective when the Agent delivers such notice, the dominion and control and “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) of each Lock-Box, each Collection Account and the amounts on deposit therein. In case any authorized signatory of Seller whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. Seller hereby authorizes the Agent, and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled to (i) endorse Seller’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (ii) enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security and (iii) 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 Agent rather than Seller. The Agent agrees that after delivery of a Collection Notice, the Collection Banks may continue to provide or otherwise make available to the Seller and the Servicer copies of all correspondence or other mail which will be sent directly to the Agent subsequent to the delivery of such Collection Notice pursuant to the Collection Account Agreements.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Seller. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent and the Purchasers of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, 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.

Section 8.5 Reports. The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent (and upon receipt thereof the Agent will forward the same to each Company or its designee) (i) by 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the tenth Business Day following the last day of each fiscal month of the Servicer and at such times as the Agent or the Required Purchasers shall request, a Monthly Report (which shall include a work sheet calculating the Net Receivables Balance and the amount of Eligible Receivables), (ii) by 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the third Business Day of each calendar week (other than a calendar week in which a Monthly Report is required to be delivered pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence) following any calendar week during which at any time the Weekly Reporting Condition existed, a Weekly Report with respect to such preceding calendar week and (iii) at such times as the Agent or the Required Purchasers shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fees. In consideration of Avnet’s agreement to act as Servicer hereunder, the Purchasers hereby agree that, so long as Avnet shall continue to perform as Servicer hereunder, Seller shall pay over to Avnet a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on the first calendar day of each month, in arrears for the immediately preceding month, equal to 1/12 of 1% per annum (in an aggregate amount equal to 1% per annum) of the average Net Receivables Balance during such period, as compensation for its servicing activities.

Section 8.7 Limited Recourse to Servicer. Purchasers shall have no recourse to Servicer for any amounts due hereunder, other than those specifically provided to be paid by Servicer hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, for amounts payable pursuant to Section 10.1(b) hereof.

(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 an Incremental Purchase or a Reinvestment, the ownership of the Purchaser Interests or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to Seller, the Servicer or 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 9.1(d);

(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 Originator, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other than as created hereunder); or any failure of Seller to give reasonably equivalent value to Originator under the Receivables Sale Agreement in consideration of the transfer by Originator 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 Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers, or to transfer to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers, legal and equitable title to, and ownership of, a first priority perfected undivided percentage ownership interest (to the extent of the Purchaser Interests contemplated hereunder) or security interest in the Receivables, the Related Security and the Collections, 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 (or any comparable law) of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Receivable, the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and the proceeds of any thereof, whether at the time of any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment or at any subsequent time;

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

(xiv) any attempt by any Person to void any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment hereunder under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action; and

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

(b) Without limiting any other rights that the Agent, any Purchaser, any Funding Source or any of their respective Affiliates may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of the Servicer’s activities as Servicer hereunder excluding, however:

(i) Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification;

(ii) 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 of the related Obligor; or

(iii) taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Indemnified Party’s principal executive office is located, on or measured by the overall net income of such Indemnified Party to the extent that the computation of such taxes is consistent with the characterization for income tax purposes of the acquisition by the Purchasers of Purchaser Interests as a loan or loans by the Purchasers to Seller secured by the Receivables, the Related Security, the Collection Accounts and the Collections;

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of Servicer or limit the recourse of the Purchasers to Servicer for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by Servicer under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 10.2 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If any Regulatory Change (i) subjects any Purchaser or any Funding Source to any charge or withholding on or with respect to any Funding Agreement or this Agreement or a Purchaser’s or Funding Source’s obligations under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Purchaser or any Funding Source of any amounts payable under any Funding Agreement or this Agreement (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of a Purchaser or Funding Source or taxes excluded by Section 10.1) or (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, fee, tax, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or liabilities of a Funding Source or a Purchaser, or credit extended by a Funding Source or a Purchaser pursuant to a Funding Agreement or this Agreement or (iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to a Funding Source or a Purchaser of performing its obligations under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or to reduce the rate of return on a Funding Source’s or Purchaser’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Funding Source or a Purchaser under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by the Agent, Seller shall pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Funding Source or Purchaser, such amounts charged to such Funding Source or Purchaser or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Funding Source or such Purchaser for such increased cost or such reduction. The term “Regulatory Change” shall mean (i) the adoption after the date hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy) or any change therein after the date hereof, (ii) any change after the date hereof in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, or (iii) the compliance, whether commenced prior to or after the date hereof, by any Funding Source or Purchaser with the final rule titled Risk-Based Capital Guidelines; Capital Adequacy Guidelines; Capital Maintenance: Regulatory Capital; Impact of Modifications to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; Consolidation of Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Programs; and Other Related Issues, adopted by the United States bank regulatory agencies on December 15, 2009, or any rules or regulations promulgated in connection therewith by any such agency.

(b) A certificate of the applicable Purchaser or Funding Source setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Purchaser or Funding Source pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 10.2 shall be delivered to the Seller and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) If any Purchaser or any Funding Source has or anticipates having any claim for compensation from the Seller pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of Regulatory Change appearing in paragraph (a) of this Section 10.2, and such Purchaser or Funding Source, or the Seller or the Servicer (each, an “Electing Party”) believes that having the facility publicly rated by one credit rating agency would reduce the amount of such compensation by an amount deemed by such Electing Party to be material, such Electing Party shall provide written notice to the related Consenting Parties (as defined below), the Seller and the Servicer, as applicable (a “Ratings Request”), that such Electing Party intends to request a public rating of the facility from one credit rating agency, selected by a Purchaser or Funding Source that is an Electing Party or a Consenting Party (as defined below) and reasonably acceptable to the Seller, of at least A-, A3 or the equivalent (the “Required Rating”). If the Electing Party is either the Seller or the Servicer, then such Ratings Request will only be made with the consent of the related Purchasers or Funding Sources for which the Electing Party believes the compensation will be materially reduced (each, a “Consenting Party”), it being understood that any consent given by a Consenting Party with respect to a Ratings Request will not, in itself, be deemed to be consent to any reduction in compensation. The Seller and the Servicer agree that they shall cooperate with such Electing Party’s efforts to obtain the Required Rating, and shall provide the applicable credit rating agency (either directly or through distribution to the Agent or Electing Party), any information requested by such credit rating agency for purposes of providing and monitoring the Required Rating. Each Consenting Party electing to receive the related ratings letter and each Electing Party shall share the cost of the initial fees payable to the credit rating agency for providing the related rating and all ongoing fees payable to the credit rating agency for their continued monitoring of the related rating. Nothing in this Section 10.2(c) shall preclude any Purchaser or Funding Source from demanding compensation from the Seller pursuant to Section 10.2(a) hereof at any time and without regard to whether the Required Rating shall have been obtained, or shall require any Purchaser or Funding Source to obtain any rating on the facility prior to demanding any such compensation from the Seller.

Section 10.3 Other Costs and Expenses. Seller shall pay to the Agent and each Purchaser on demand all 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 any Purchaser’s auditors auditing the books, records and procedures of Seller, reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of legal counsel for each Purchaser and the Agent (which such counsel may be employees of any Purchaser or the Agent) with respect thereto and with respect to advising any Purchaser and the Agent as to their respective rights and remedies under this Agreement. Seller shall pay to the Agent and each Purchaser on demand any and all costs and expenses of the Agent and the Purchasers, if any, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other documents delivered hereunder and in connection with any restructuring or workout of this Agreement or such documents, or the administration of this Agreement following an Amortization Event. Seller shall reimburse each Company on demand for all other costs and expenses incurred by such Company (“Other Costs”), including, without limitation, the cost of auditing such Company’s books by certified public accountants, the cost of rating the Commercial Paper by independent financial rating agencies, and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel for such Company or any counsel for any shareholder of such Company with respect to advising such Company or such shareholder as to matters relating to such Company’s operations.

Section 10.4 Allocations. Each Company shall allocate the liability for Other Costs among Seller and other Persons with whom such Company has entered into agreements to purchase interests in receivables (“Other Sellers”). If any Other Costs are attributable to Seller and not attributable to any Other Seller, Seller shall be solely liable for such Other Costs. However, if Other Costs are attributable to Other Sellers and not attributable to Seller, such Other Sellers shall be solely liable for such Other Costs. All allocations to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Article X shall be made by the applicable Company in its sole discretion and shall be binding on Seller and the Servicer.

THE AGENT

Section 11.1 Authorization and Action. Each Purchaser hereby designates and appoints JPM Chase to act as its agent hereunder and under each other Transaction Document, and authorizes the Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any Purchaser, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of the Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist for the Agent. In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, the Agent shall act solely as agent for the Purchasers and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for any Seller Party or any of such Seller Party’s successors or assigns. The Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or applicable law. The appointment and authority of the Agent hereunder shall terminate upon the indefeasible payment in full of all Aggregate Unpaids. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Agent to execute each of the Uniform Commercial Code financing or continuation statements (and amendments thereto and assignments or terminations thereof) on behalf of such Purchaser (the terms of which shall be binding on such Purchaser).

Section 11.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

Section 11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (except for its, their or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Purchasers for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Seller Party contained in this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement, or any other Transaction Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any other Transaction Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith, or for any failure of any Seller Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article VI, or for the perfection, priority, condition, value or sufficiency of any collateral pledged in connection herewith. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Purchaser to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Seller Parties. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event unless the Agent has received notice from Seller or a Purchaser.

Section 11.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to Seller), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Purchasers or all of the Purchasers, as applicable, as it deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Purchasers, provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such advice, the Agent may take or refrain from taking any action, as the Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Purchasers. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance with a request of the Required Purchasers or all of the Purchasers, as applicable, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Purchasers.

Section 11.5 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Purchasers. Each Purchaser expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of any Seller Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent. Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Agent that it has and will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of Seller and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and all other documents related hereto or thereto.

Section 11.6 Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Financial Institution agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents ratably based on the ratio of each such indemnifying Financial Institution’s Commitment to the aggregate Commitment, to the extent not paid or reimbursed by the Seller Parties (i) for any amounts for which the Agent, acting in its capacity as Agent, is entitled to reimbursement by the Seller Parties hereunder and (ii) for any other expenses incurred by the Agent, in its capacity as Agent and acting on behalf of the Purchasers, in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 11.7 Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with Seller or any Affiliate of Seller as though the Agent were not the Agent hereunder. With respect to the acquisition of Purchaser Interests pursuant to this Agreement, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement in its individual capacity as any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Financial Institution,” “Purchaser,” “Related Financial Institution,” “Financial Institutions,” “Purchasers,” and “Related Financial Institutions,” shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 11.8 Successor Agent. The Agent may, upon five days’ notice to Seller and the Purchasers, and the Agent will, upon the direction of all of the Purchasers (other than the Agent, in its individual capacity), resign as Agent. If the Agent shall resign, then the Required Purchasers during such five-day period shall appoint from among the Purchasers a successor agent. If for any reason no successor Agent is appointed by the Required Purchasers during such five-day period, then effective upon the termination of such five-day period, the Purchasers shall perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and Seller and the Servicer (as applicable) shall make all payments in respect of the Aggregate Unpaids directly to the applicable Purchasers and for all purposes shall deal directly with the Purchasers. After the effectiveness of any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and the provisions of this Article XI and Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and under the other Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE XII

Section 12.1 Assignments. (a) Seller, the Servicer, the Agent and each Purchaser hereby agree and consent to the complete or partial assignment by any Company of all or any portion of its rights under, interest in, title to and obligations under this Agreement to any Funding Source pursuant to any Funding Agreement or to any other Person, and upon such assignment, such Company shall be released from its obligations so assigned. Further, Seller, the Servicer, the Agent and each Purchaser hereby agree that any assignee of any Company of this Agreement or of all or any of the Purchaser Interests of any Company shall have all of the rights and benefits under this Agreement as if the term “Company” explicitly referred to and included such party (provided that (i) the Purchaser Interests of any such assignee that is a Company or a commercial paper conduit shall accrue CP Costs based on such Company’s Company Costs or on such commercial paper conduit’s cost of funds, respectively, and (ii) the Purchaser Interests of any other such assignee shall accrue Yield pursuant to Section 4.1), and no such assignment shall in any way impair the rights and benefits of any Company hereunder. Neither Seller nor the Servicer shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Any Financial Institution may at any time and from time to time assign to one or more Persons (“Purchasing Financial Institutions”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an assignment agreement, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit VII hereto (the “Assignment Agreement”) executed by such Purchasing Financial Institution and such selling Financial Institution. The consent of the Company in such selling Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment. Each assignee of a Financial Institution must (i) have a short-term debt rating of A-1 or better by S&P and P-1 by Moody’s and (ii) agree to deliver to the Agent, promptly following any request therefor by the Agent or the Company in such selling Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group, an enforceability opinion in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and such Company. Upon delivery of the executed Assignment Agreement to the Agent, such selling Financial Institution shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment. Thereafter the Purchasing Financial Institution shall for all purposes be a Financial Institution party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Financial Institution (including, without limitation, the applicable obligations of a Related Financial Institution) under this Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto and no further consent or action by Seller, the Purchasers or the Agent shall be required.

(c) Each of the Financial Institutions agrees that in the event that it shall cease to have a short-term debt rating of A-1 or better by S&P and P-1 by Moody’s (an “Affected Financial Institution”), such Affected Financial Institution shall be obliged, at the request of the Company in such Affected Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (x) another Financial Institution in such Affected Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group or (y) another funding entity nominated by the Agent or any Financial Institution and acceptable to the Company in such Affected Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group, and willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such Affected Financial Institution; provided that the Affected Financial Institution receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Capital and Yield owing to the Financial Institutions in such Affected Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group and all accrued but unpaid fees and other costs and expenses payable in respect of its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Financial Institutions in such Affected Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group.

Section 12.2 Participations. Any Financial Institution may, in the ordinary course of its business at any time sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Financial Institutions in such Financial Institution’s Purchaser Group or any other interest of such Financial Institution hereunder. Notwithstanding any such sale by a Financial Institution of a participating interest to a Participant, such Financial Institution’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Financial Institution shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and Seller, each Company and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Financial Institution in connection with such Financial Institution’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each Financial Institution agrees that any agreement between such Financial Institution and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Financial Institution’s right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described in Section 13.1(b)(i).

Section 12.3 Federal Reserve. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Financial Institution may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including, without limitation, any Purchaser Interest and any rights to payment of Capital and Yield) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Financial Institution to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Seller or the Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Financial Institution from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Financial Institution as a party hereto.

ARTICLE XIII

(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Agent or any Purchaser 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.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Financial Institutions, but with the consent of Seller, the Agent may amend this Agreement solely to add additional Persons as Financial Institutions hereunder and (ii) the Agent, the Required Purchasers and each Company may enter into amendments to modify any of the terms or provisions of Article XI, Section 13.13 or any other provision of this Agreement without the consent of Seller, provided that such amendment has no negative impact upon Seller. Any modification or waiver made in accordance with this Section 13.1 shall apply to each of the Purchasers equally and shall be binding upon Seller, the Purchasers and the Agent.

Section 13.2 Notices. Except as provided in this Section 13.2, all communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including 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 (i) if given by telecopy, upon the receipt thereof, (ii) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid or (iii) if given by any other means, when received at the address specified in this Section 13.2. Seller hereby authorizes the Agent and the Purchasers to effect purchases and selections of Tranche Periods and Discount Rates based on telephonic notices made by any Person whom the Agent or applicable Purchaser in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of Seller. Seller agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent and each applicable Purchaser 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 Agent or applicable Purchaser, the records of the Agent or applicable Purchaser shall govern absent manifest error.

Section 13.3 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 10.2 or 10.3) 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 13.4 Protection of Ownership Interests of the Purchasers. (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 Agent may request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Purchaser Interests, or to enable the Agent or the Purchasers to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller will, upon the request of the Agent, file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and execute and file such other instruments and documents, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Agent may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or evidence such Purchaser Interest. At any time after an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may, or the Agent may direct Seller or the Servicer to, notify the Obligor of Receivables, at Seller’s expense, of the ownership or security interests 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 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 Agent or any Purchaser may (but shall not be required to) perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and the Agent’s or such Purchaser’s costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller as provided in Section 10.3. Each Seller Party irrevocably authorizes the Agent at any time and from time to time after the occurrence of any Amortization Event in the sole discretion of the Agent, and appoints the Agent as its attorney-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Seller Party (i) to authorize on behalf of such Seller Party as debtor and to file financing or continuation statements (and amendments thereto and assignments thereof) necessary or desirable in the Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Purchasers in the Receivables 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 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. The authorization by each Seller Party set forth in the second sentence of this Section 13.4(b) is intended to meet all requirements for authorization by a debtor under Article 9 of any applicable enactment of the UCC, including, without limitation, Section 9-509 thereof.

Section 13.5 Confidentiality. (a) Each Seller Party and each Purchaser shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement, except as required by law, and the other confidential or proprietary information with respect to the Agent and each Purchaser and their respective businesses obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except that such Seller Party and such Purchaser and its officers and employees may disclose such information to such Seller Party’s and such Purchaser’s external accountants and attorneys and as required by 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), including disclosure in the financial statements of each of the Seller Parties of the existence and financial effects of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Seller Party, each Purchaser, the Agent, each Indemnified Party and any successor or assign of any of the foregoing (and each employee, representative or other agent of any of the foregoing) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are or have been provided to any of the foregoing relating to such tax treatment or tax structure, and it is hereby confirmed that each of the foregoing have been so authorized since the commencement of discussions regarding the transactions.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Seller Party hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to the Agent, the Financial Institutions or the Companies by each other, (ii) by the Agent or the Purchasers to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them, (iii) by the Agent or any Purchaser to any rating agency, Funding Source, Commercial Paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to any Company or any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans secured by, financial assets for which the Agent or any Financial Institution acts as the administrative agent and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing and (iv) by each Purchaser (or any administrative agent on its behalf), to a nationally recognized statistical rating organization in compliance with Rule 17g-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (or to any other rating agency in compliance with any similar rule or regulation in any relevant jurisdiction) or in accordance with any good faith interpretation thereof. The Agent or the Purchaser, as applicable, will make reasonable efforts to enter into a confidentiality agreement, reasonably acceptable to the Servicer, with each rating agency hired by such Person and to which it is disclosing information pursuant to clause (iii) or (iv) above; provided, that the absence of such a confidentiality agreement shall not be construed to prohibit the Agent or any Purchaser from making disclosures to any rating agency as may be required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including, for this purpose, any requirements of Rule 17g-5 or any good faith interpretation thereof). In addition, the Purchasers and the Agent 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). Except as provided in this clause (b) above, the Agent, JPM Chase, as a Purchaser, and the other Purchasers shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of any confidential or proprietary information with respect to the Seller Parties obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein.

Section 13.6 Bankruptcy Petition. Seller, the Servicer, the Agent and each Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any Company or any Funding Source that is a special purpose bankruptcy remote entity, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Company or any such entity any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

Section 13.7 Limitation of Liability. (a) Except with respect to any claim arising out of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any Company, the Agent or any Financial Institution, no claim may be made by any Seller Party or any other Person against any Company, the Agent or any Financial Institution or their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each Seller Party hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Company shall, nor shall be obligated to, pay any amount pursuant to this Agreement unless (i) such Company 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 Company 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 Company’s securitization program or (y) all of such Company’s Commercial Paper is paid in full. Any amount which such Company does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in §101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code) against or corporate obligation of such Company for any such insufficiency unless and until such Company satisfies the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) above. This paragraph (b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
