Following the sale or contribution, transfer and assignment of Transferred Receivables from the Originators, Transferee will grant a security interest in the Transferred Receivables, the associated Related Security and Collections to the Collateral Agent under that certain Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”) among Transferee, Basic Energy Services, L.P., as initial Servicer, Basic Energy Services, Inc., as the Performance Guarantor, the Lenders party thereto, and UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

Section 2.01    Initial Contribution of Receivables. On the date hereof, the Initial Originator does hereby contribute, assign, transfer, set over and otherwise convey, and deliver, to Transferee, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement), and Transferee does hereby accept from such Originator (and deliver to such Originator the Transfer Consideration in respect thereof in accordance with Section 2.03), all Receivables originated by the Initial Originator and existing as of the close of business at the principal place of business of the Initial Originator on September 29, 2017 (the “Initial Cutoff Date”) having an aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.01 (the “Initial Contributed

Receivables”), for the Transfer Consideration set forth on such Schedule, together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof.

Section 2.02    Subsequent Sales or Contributions of Receivables. (a) Effective on the date hereof, in consideration for delivery of the Transfer Consideration in accordance with Section 2.03 and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each Originator does hereby agree to sell or contribute, as the case may be, assign, transfer, set over and otherwise convey, and deliver, to Transferee, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement), and Transferee does hereby agree to purchase or accept, as the case may be, from each Originator, on the applicable Transfer Date, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables arising after the Initial Cutoff Date through and including the earlier of (i) the occurrence of the Originator Termination Effective Date with respect to such Originator and (ii) the Termination Date, together, in each case, with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof. In accordance with the preceding sentence, on the applicable Transfer Date Transferee shall acquire or accept, as the case may be, all of each Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables, together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof, originated by such Originator and not previously transferred to the Transferee, through and including the earlier of (i) the occurrence of the Originator Termination Effective Date with respect to such Originator and (ii) the Termination Date. Transferee shall deliver the Transfer Consideration for the Receivables, Related Security and Collections sold or contributed hereunder by an Originator in accordance with Section 2.03. Unless otherwise agreed by Transferee and the respective Originator, each transfer of Receivables hereunder shall be effected by contribution rather than by (i) a cash sale and/or (ii) issuance of a Subordinated Note.

(b)    On the date of delivery of each Borrowing Base Report, as applicable, each Originator shall (or shall require the Servicer to) deliver to Transferee a report containing substantially the same information as the form of report set forth in Exhibit V (each such report being herein called a “Transfer Report”) with respect to the Transferred Receivables sold or contributed by each Originator to Transferee during the applicable Calculation Period (or portion thereof for which such information is available if delivered in connection with a weekly Borrowing Base Report during an Enhanced Reporting Event). In addition to, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, in connection with any sale or contribution hereunder of Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections by an Originator, Transferee may request that each Originator deliver, and each Originator shall deliver upon such request, such documents evidencing such Transferred Receivables and Related Security as Transferee may reasonably request (provided that no such delivery will be required if it would cause Originator to breach any confidentiality provision in any agreement with a third party and, if an Unmatured Termination Event or Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, Originator could not obtain such third party’s waiver of such confidentiality provision or consent to disclosure using its commercially reasonable efforts).

(c)    It is the intention of the parties hereto that any sale or contribution of

Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections made hereunder shall constitute a sale or contribution, as the case may be, which is absolute and irrevocable and provides Transferee with

the full benefits of ownership of the Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections. Except for any Transfer Consideration Indemnification Payment that may become due pursuant to Section 2.04, the sale or contribution of Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections hereunder is made without recourse to any Originator; provided, however, that (i) each Originator shall be liable to Transferee for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by such Originator pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Originator is a party, and (ii) such sale or contribution does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by Transferee or any assignee thereof of any obligation of any Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator, the related Contracts and/or other Related Security or any other obligations of any Originator. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that a sale or contribution of Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections hereunder shall constitute an absolute and irrevocable transfer of such Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections rather than loans secured thereby, each Originator agrees that (i) it will, on or promptly following the date hereof, prepare and display prominently a physical legend reasonably acceptable to Transferee and to the Collateral Agent (as Transferee’s assignee) in proximity to its relevant books and records and on the user login screens used by such Originator to access its computer accounting files and general ledgers, which legend shall evidence that the Transferred Receivables have been transferred to Transferee as provided in this Agreement and (ii) in accordance with Section 5.11, from and after the date hereof a review of its financial statements will disclose that the Transferred Receivables have been absolutely transferred to Transferee.

(d)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 9.13, any Originator may request to terminate the transfer of Receivables owned by such Originator to Transferee by delivery of an Originator Termination Notice. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.13 with respect to an Orderly Originator Termination Notice, any Originator Termination Notice shall be effective as of the applicable Originator Termination Effective Date. Unless the Termination Date has occurred, each Originator (other than any Originator that has been terminated) shall continue to transfer Receivables owned by such Originator pursuant to this Agreement following the termination of any other Originator.

Section 2.03    Delivery of Transfer Consideration. (a) The Transfer Consideration for each Transferred Receivable and all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof (i) transferred by contribution to Transferee, shall be delivered to such Originator in the manner provided in the following paragraph (b), (ii) transferred by cash sale to Transferee, shall be paid in immediately available funds, from Collections on Transferred Receivables or the proceeds of loans under the Credit Agreement, on the agreed payment date applicable to the Transfer Date with respect to such cash sale, to the applicable Originator or (iii) transferred in exchange for a Subordinated Note, shall be a Subordinated Note completed and issued by the Transferee in a principal amount equal to the portion (as determined by Transferee) of the Transfer Consideration to be paid on such Transfer Date for Transferred Receivables that is not to be paid in cash or by an increase in the related Originator’s capital account.

(b)    On each Transfer Date with respect to a transfer by contribution, the Transfer Consideration therefor shall be delivered, concurrently with Transferee’s acceptance of such

property as a capital contribution by the applicable Originator to its capital account in SPV Holdco which shall in all instances be followed by an immediate and automatic corresponding capital contribution by SPV Holdco to Transferee, by crediting such contribution to such Originator’s capital account in full on the date each such Transferred Receivable came into existence (except in the case of the Initial Receivables, as to which the Transfer Consideration shall be credited as of the date hereof). Such contribution shall be reflected on Transferee’s books and records as a capital contribution by SPV Holdco, in accordance with the terms of the limited liability company agreement of Transferee and on SPV Holdco’s books and records as a capital contribution by the applicable Originator to SPV Holdco, in accordance with the terms of the limited liability company agreement of SPV Holdco.

(c)    From and after the Termination Date, (i) no Originator shall be obligated to (but may, at its option, subject to subclause (ii)) sell or contribute Receivables to Transferee pursuant to Section 2.02 and (ii) Transferee shall not be obligated to (but may, at its option) acquire or accept Receivables proposed to be sold or contributed to Transferee by an Originator.

(d)    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, at no time shall the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Subordinated Notes outstanding exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Transferred Receivables as of the most recent Calculation Date, and Transferee shall either repay such portion of the outstanding principal amount of all Subordinated Notes, on a pro rata basis, as is necessary to eliminate any such excess, or accept Transferred Receivables only by contribution and/or cash sale hereunder until such excess is eliminated.

Section 2.04    Transfer Consideration Indemnification. In the event that:

(a)    the Outstanding Principal Balance of any Transferred Receivable is:

(i)    reduced or canceled as a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any failure of the applicable Originator or any other Person (other than the applicable Obligor) to complete the performance of its obligations under the related Contract with respect to such Transferred Receivable, any discount or any other adjustment by the applicable Originator or any governmental or regulatory action (other than a discharge in bankruptcy of the related Obligor), or

(ii)    reduced or canceled as a result of a defense, deduction, setoff or dispute in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction), or

(iii)    reduced or canceled on account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or

(iv)    less than the amount included in calculating the Borrowing Base for purposes of any Borrowing Base Report for any reason other than (x) the receipt of a payment of principal of such Transferred Receivable in cash or (y) the write-off as uncollectible of all

or any portion of the Outstanding Principal Balance of such Transferred Receivable in accordance with the applicable Originator’s Credit and Collection Policy, or

(b)    any of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.17, Section 3.19 or Section 3.21 is not true when made or deemed made with respect to any Transferred Receivable,

then, in such event, the applicable Originator shall pay to Transferee, in cash, monthly in arrears, on the last Business Day of each calendar month, an amount equal to, in the case of clause (a) above, the amount of any such reduction or cancellation and any reduction or deficiency in the Borrowing Base resulting from, arising out of or relating to any of the circumstances described in clause (a) and, in the case of clause (b) above, the Outstanding Principal Balance of such Transferred Receivable; provided that no payment shall be due with respect to (i) a Transferred Receivable as a result of the representation and warranty set forth in Section 3.17 with respect thereto not being true as of the related Transfer Date if such representation and warranty was true as of the Calculation Date for the calendar month in which such Transfer Date occurred or (ii) any reduction or cancellation of the Outstanding Principal Balance of any Transferred Receivable or any reduction or deficiency in the Borrowing Base which is due to uncollectibility of such Transferred Receivable on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor or any other failure or inability (not due to actions of any Originator) on the part of the related Obligor to pay the amount of such Transferred Receivable.

Section 2.05    Payments and Computations, Etc. All cash amounts to be paid or deposited by Transferee hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account of the related Originator designated from time to time by such Originator or as otherwise directed by such Originator. In the event that any cash payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any Person fails to pay or deliver any cash or other amount hereunder when due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid in full; provided, however, that such Default Fee shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

Section 2.06    Transfer of Records. (a) In connection with the transfer of Transferred Receivables hereunder, each Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys, and delivers, to Transferee all of such Originator’s right and title to and interest in the Records relating to all Transferred Receivables sold or contributed by it hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with such sale, assignment, transfer or other conveyance (it being understood and agreed that any Records that are not assignable (whether by express restriction not rendered ineffective by the UCC or by virtue of confidentiality provisions) according to their terms are excluded from such sale, transfer, assignment or conveyance; provided, that upon reasonable request of Transferee (or its assigns), the applicable Originator will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consent to the assignment from the relevant counterparty). In connection with such transfer, each Originator hereby grants to each of Transferee, the Collateral Agent (so long as any

Obligations remain outstanding) and the Servicer an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by such Originator to account for the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator, to the extent necessary to administer the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator, whether such software is owned by such Originator or is owned by others and used by such Originator under license agreements with respect thereto; provided that should the consent of any licensor of such software be required for the grant of the license described herein, to be effective, the applicable Originator hereby agrees that upon the request of Transferee, the Collateral Agent (so long as any Obligations remain outstanding) or the Servicer, such Originator will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable until the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all Commitments under the Credit Agreement, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

(b)    Each Originator (i) shall take such action requested by Transferee and/or the Collateral Agent (as Transferee’s assignee), from time to time hereafter, that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that Transferee and its assigns under the Credit Agreement have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records transferred to Transferee under Section 2.06(a) by such Originator relating to the Transferred Receivables purchased from such Originator hereunder and (ii) shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Transferee, the Collateral Agent and the Servicer each has an enforceable right (whether by license or sublicense, subject to obtaining any required licensor consent requested under Section 2.06(a), or otherwise), until the payment in full of all the Obligations and termination of all Commitments under the Credit Agreement, to use all of the computer software used by such Originator to account for the Transferred Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

Section 2.07    Characterization. If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 2.02(c), any sale or contribution by any Originator to Transferee of Transferred Receivables, Related Security or Collections hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or contribution or such sale or contribution shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and any other Requirement of Law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties’ intention that the sale or contribution of Transferred Receivables, Related Security and Collections hereunder shall constitute a true sale or true contribution thereof, each Originator hereby grants to Transferee a security interest in all of such Originator’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under all Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator and all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof now existing and hereafter arising, each Lockbox and Collection Account, all other rights and payments relating to such Transferred Receivables and all proceeds of the foregoing, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the Transfer Consideration of such Transferred Receivables together with all other obligations of such Originator hereunder, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens thereon. Transferee and its assigns shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

Each Originator, with respect to itself, hereby represents and warrants to Transferee on the date hereof and on each Transfer Date:

Section 3.11    Margin Regulations. Such Originator is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security”, as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect.

Such Originator will not take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Board.

Section 3.12    Credit and Collection Policy. Each Originator has complied in all material respects with its respective Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each Transferred Receivable and the related Contract, and no Originator has made any change to its respective Credit and Collection Policy, except as permitted by Section 6.02.

Section 3.13    Investment Company Status. Such Originator is not and will not be required to register as an “investment company” under, and as defined in, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Section 3.14    Solvency. Immediately after (a) the consummation of the First-Step Transactions on the date hereof and (b) each Transfer Date to occur from and after the date hereof, (i) the present fair value of the assets of such Originator is not less than the amount required to pay its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, (ii) the present fair saleable

value of the property of such Originator is not less than the amount that will be required to pay its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such liabilities become absolute and matured, (iii) such Originator does not intend to and does not believe that it will incur debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, beyond its ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they become absolute and matured, (iv) such Originator will not have unreasonably small capital for a business or transaction in which it is engaged or is about to engage in and (v) such Originator will not transfer any Receivables to the Transferee with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any Person.

Section 3.15    Title, Perfection and Priority. Immediately prior to the sale or contribution of such Originator’s right, title and interest to, in and under a Transferred Receivable originated by such Originator, the Related Security relating thereto and the Collections thereof by such Originator hereunder, such Originator shall have good and valid rights in or the power to transfer such Transferred Receivable, the Related Security relating thereto and the Collections thereof and title to such Transferred Receivables, the Related Security relating thereto and the Collections thereof to be sold or contributed, free and clear of all Liens (other than Liens to be released upon the transfer of such Transferred Receivable), and each such sale or contribution hereunder constitutes a valid sale or contribution, transfer and assignment of all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under such Transferred Receivables, Related Security relating thereto and Collections thereof contributed by it, free and clear of any Liens. On or before the date hereof and before the generation by such Originator of any new Transferred Receivable after the date hereof to be sold or contributed or otherwise conveyed hereunder, all financing statements and other documents, if any, required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect and protect Transferee’s ownership interest in such Transferred Receivable, Related Security relating thereto and Collections thereof against all creditors of and purchasers from such Originator will have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose, and all filing fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings shall have been paid in full.

Section 3.16    Information Regarding Collection Accounts. Exhibit III lists all Collection Accounts, Collection Banks and Lockboxes as of the Effective Date and such schedule correctly identifies the name, address and telephone number of each depository, the name in which the account is held and the complete account number therefor. Each Collection Account constitutes a deposit account within the meaning of the applicable UCC. No Collection Account is in the name of any person other than the Transferee.

Section 3.17    Eligible Receivables. Each Transferred Receivable reflected in any Borrowing Base Report as an Eligible Receivable was an Eligible Receivable as of the date of its transfer to the Transferee hereunder.

Section 3.18    Reliance on Separate Legal Identity. Such Originator acknowledges that each of Transferee, the Agents and the Lenders are entering into the Loan Documents to which they are parties in reliance upon Transferee’s identity as a legal entity separate from such Originator and its Subsidiaries.

Section 3.19    Enforceability of Contracts. As of the Transfer Date with respect to any Transferred Receivable sold or contributed, as applicable, by such Originator hereunder each Contract related to such Transferred Receivable was effective to create, and had created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Principal Balance of such Transferred Receivable, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

Section 3.20    Payments to Originator. With respect to each Transferred Receivable originated by such Originator, the Transfer Consideration received by such Originator constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by such Originator of any Receivable hereunder is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 3.21    Nature of Transferred Receivables. Each Transferred Receivable constitutes an “account” or a “payment intangible” under the UCC.

Section 3.22    No Brokers. No broker or finder acting on behalf of such Originator was employed or utilized in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions and such Originator has no obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith.

Section 3.23    Instructions to Obligors. All Obligors have been instructed to make payments to a Lockbox or Collection Account and, subject to Section 6.02, no Obligor has been instructed to make payments to any other accounts or lockboxes.

Since three (3) years prior to the date hereof, there has been no action taken by such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of such Originator,

any officer, director, or employee, or any agent, representative, sales intermediary, or other third party of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, acting on behalf of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries, in violation of any applicable Anti-Corruption Law. None of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries has been convicted of violating any Anti-Corruption Laws or subjected to any investigation by a Governmental Authority for violation of any applicable Anti-

Corruption Laws or received any written notice, request or citation for any actual or potential noncompliance with any of the foregoing.

(c)    None of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries or any director, officer, employee, agent, or affiliate of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries is an individual or entity (a “Sanctioned Person”) that is, or is owned or controlled by Persons that are: (i) the subject of any sanctions administered or enforced by OFAC, the U.S. Department of State or the United Nations Security Council (collectively, “Sanctions”), or (ii) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is, or whose government is, the subject of comprehensive Sanctions. Since three (3) years prior to the date hereof, none of such Originator or any of its Subsidiaries has knowingly engaged in, or is now knowingly engaged in, or will engage in, any dealings or transactions with any Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time of the dealing or transaction is or was, or whose government is or was, the subject of comprehensive Sanctions.

(c)    Lien and Judgment Searches. Transferee and the Agents shall have received the results of recent Lien and judgment searches in each of the jurisdictions where the Initial Originator is located (within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC) or in which it maintains its chief executive office or principal place of business, and such searches shall reveal no outstanding judgments against the Initial Originator or Liens on any of the Receivables, Related Security related

thereto or Collections thereof to be transferred by the Initial Originator hereunder (other than such Liens as will be released substantially simultaneously with the Initial Contribution).

(d)    Filings, Registrations and Recordings. Each document (including any Uniform Commercial Code financing statement), as may be necessary under the UCC of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Transferee’s ownership interest in all Transferred Receivables, Related Security related thereto and Collections thereof in which an ownership or security interest has been assigned hereunder have been duly authorized and name the Initial Originator as the debtor/seller and Transferee as the buyer/assignor (and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, as secured party/assignee) of the Transferred Receivables, Related Security related thereto and Collections thereof generated by the Initial Originator.

(e)    Opinions of Counsel. Transferee and the Agents shall have received one or more opinions of legal counsel for the Initial Originator reasonably acceptable to Transferee which address the following matters and such other matters as Transferee and the Agents may reasonably request:

Transferee and the Agents shall have received a certificate executed by a Financial Officer of the Initial Originator certifying that, as of the date of the Initial Contribution, no Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event exists and is continuing, stating that the representations and warranties of the Initial Originator contained in Article III are true and correct in all material respects (without duplicating materiality standards in such representations and warranties) as of such date and certifying any other factual matters as may be reasonably requested by the Transferee.

(g)    All of the conditions under Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof.

Receivable came into existence, the following statement shall be true (and acceptance of the Transfer Consideration for such Transferred Receivable shall constitute a representation and warranty by the applicable Originator that such statements is then true): the representations and warranties set forth in Article III are true and correct in all material respects (without duplicating materiality standards in such representations and warranties) on and as of the date such Transferred Receivable came into existence as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing conditions precedent, upon delivery of the Transfer Consideration for any Transferred Receivable, title to such Transferred Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto shall vest in Transferee, whether or not the conditions precedent to Transferee’s obligation to deliver the Transfer Consideration for such Transferred Receivable were in fact satisfied. The failure of any Originator to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions precedent, however, shall give rise to a right of Transferee to rescind the related sale or contribution and (i) (in the case of a contribution) reduce the value of SPV Holdco’s equity interest in Transferee and the Originator’s equity interest in SPV Holdco, or (ii) (in the case of a sale for which the Transfer Consideration was a Subordinated Note) reduce the outstanding principal amount of such Subordinated Note, or (iii) (in the case of a sale for which the Transfer Consideration was cash) a right of the Transferee to receive a Transfer Consideration Indemnification Payment in respect of such Transferred Receivable. Any such reduction or such Transfer Consideration Indemnification Payment shall be in an amount equal to the Transfer Consideration (and corresponding to the type thereof) that shall have been delivered with respect to any Transferred Receivables related thereto.

Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, each Originator, with respect to itself hereby covenants as set forth below:

Section 5.01    Certain Information.

Such Originator will keep and maintain all assets and other property material to the conduct of its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and casualty or condemnation excepted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.06    Payment of Obligations. Such Originator will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, pay or discharge as the same shall become due and payable in the normal course of its business, all of their respective Material Indebtedness and other material liabilities and obligations, including material Taxes, except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the failure to make payment pending such contest would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (b) it or such Subsidiary, if any, has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP.

Such Originator, at the request of Transferee, shall, from time to time, prepare and present to Transferee upon request for Transferee’s authorization and approval all financing statements, amendments, continuations (or initial financing statements in lieu of continuations), or other filings necessary to continue, maintain and perfect Transferee’s ownership interest in such Transferred Receivables, Related Security related thereto and Collections thereof as a first-priority interest. Such Originator

hereby authorizes Transferee to file such financing statements under the UCC. Notwithstanding anything else in the Loan Documents to the contrary, (i) no such Originator shall, prior to the Payment Date, have any authority to file a termination, partial termination, release, partial release or any amendment of any such financing statements that deletes the name of a debtor or excludes collateral of any such financing statements, without the prior written consent of Transferee and (ii) such Originator shall not be required to take any actions in compliance with the laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States in connection with the transfer or pledge pursuant to the Loan Documents of any Transferred Receivables of an Obligor domiciled in such jurisdiction.

Section 5.13    Audits. Such Originator will, from time to time during regular business hours as requested by the Transferee and the Agents upon reasonable notice and at the sole cost of the Originators, permit the Transferee and the Agents, their agents or representatives and other third parties retained by the Agents for purposes of field examinations and collateral monitoring services: (i) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all Records in the possession or under the control of such Person relating to the Transferred Receivables, including, without limitation, the related Contracts and (ii) to visit the offices and properties of such Person for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause (i) above, and to discuss matters relating to such Person’s financial condition or the Transferred Receivables or any Person’s performance under any of the Loan Documents or any Person’s performance under the Contracts and, in each case, with any of the officers or employees of any Originator having knowledge of such matters; provided that, excluding any such field examinations during the occurrence and continuance of a Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event, only two field examinations may be conducted during any calendar year and, if a Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, as many as Transferee (or an Agent as Transferee’s Assignee) reasonably determines to be appropriate (for purposes of this proviso, a single “field examination” may consist of multiple examinations and visits so long as such examinations and visits occur within a fourteen-day period or such longer period reasonably necessary to complete the related audit). The Transferee and the Agents shall perform such inspections together and shall cooperate with one another to establish the scope of any audit and the timing of such inspections. In addition to, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, whether or not a Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event exists, the Transferee and the Collateral Agent shall have the right, exercisable at any time but on no more than two (2) occasions during any calendar year, to verify with Obligors the validity or amount of Transferred Receivables and Related Security, provided that, (a) such verification shall be undertaken by a firm selected by the Agents (any such firm being referred to herein as the “Auditor”),

Section 5.15    Separateness of Transferee. Such Originator will maintain Transferee’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest to third parties that Transferee is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of such Originator and any Affiliates thereof and not just a division of such Originator or any such Affiliate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, such Originator (i) will not hold itself out to third parties as liable for the debts of Transferee nor assert that it owns the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator, and other assets, transferred to Transferee and (ii) will take all other actions necessary on its part to ensure that Transferee is at all times in compliance with the “separateness covenants” set forth in Section 8.15 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 5.16    Further Assurances.

Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, each Originator, with respect to itself hereby covenants as set forth below:

Transferred Receivable originated by such Originator 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 Termination Event described in Section 7.01(f) (g) or (h) with respect to such Originator;

(x)    any failure to vest and maintain vested in Transferee, or to transfer to Transferee, legal and equitable title to, and ownership of, the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator and the related Collections, and all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in the Related Security associated with such Transferred Receivable and the Collections thereof, in each case, free and clear of any Lien except for Liens in favor of Transferee and its assigns;

(xi)    the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Transferred Receivable originated by such Originator, the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and the proceeds of any thereof, whether at the time of the transfer or at any subsequent time;

Section 9.01    Waivers and Amendments. (a) No failure or delay on the part of Transferee (or its assigns) 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.

During the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Transferee (or the Agents) may, at the related Originator’s sole cost and expense, direct such Originator to notify the Obligors of such Transferred Receivables of the ownership interests of Transferee under this Agreement. During the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or a Liquidity Event, Collateral Agent may exercise all rights available to it under each Collection Account Agreement.

(b)    If any Originator fails to perform any of its obligations under Section 9.03(a), Transferee (and Collateral Agent, as Transferee’s assignee) may (but shall not be required to) upon notice to such Originator perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and Transferee’s (or such assigns’) costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Originator as provided in Section 8.02.

This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

the perfection of the ownership or security interests of Transferee (and the Collateral Agent, as Transferee’s assignee) hereunder, (B) acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to, and will not, file financing statements or other filing or recording documents with respect to such Transferred Receivables, Related Security or Collections (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the express prior written approval by the Collateral Agent (as Transferee’s assignee), consenting to the form and substance of such filing or recording document, and (C) approves, authorizes and ratifies any filings or recordings made by or on behalf

of the Collateral Agent (as Transferee’s assignee) in connection with the perfection of the ownership or security interests in favor of Transferee or the Collateral Agent (as Transferee’s assignee).

(a) Each Originator shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of any fee letters and any confidential or proprietary information with respect to the Agents (and their affiliates) and the Agents’ (and their affiliates’) business obtained by it in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein, except (i) to the extent any such information becomes public information other than through a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to the extent such information becomes available to Transferee on a non-confidential basis from a source other than from any Originator and (iii) that such Originator and its officers and employees may disclose such information to such Originator’s (and its Affiliates’) directors, external accountants and attorneys and in accordance with any applicable 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) (provided that notice of any such law, rule, regulation, direction, request, order or proceedings shall be promptly furnished to the Transferee unless such notice is legally prohibited).

(b)    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, but subject to Section 12.12 of the Credit Agreement, each Originator hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to Transferee, the Agents or the Lenders, by each other, (ii) by Transferee or the Agents to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them and (iii) by the Agents to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans secured by, financial assets for which the Agents, the Lenders or one of their respective affiliates act as the administrator and/or agent and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing; provided that each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information.

that notice of any request, requirement or legal process referred to in subclauses (ii) and (iii) shall be promptly furnished to the Transferee unless such notice is legally prohibited. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Originator relating to any Originator, the Obligors or their business, other than any such information that is or becomes publicly available or was otherwise available to Transferee on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Originator. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 9.05    Bankruptcy Petition. Each of the Originators covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the later of (x) the Payment Date and (y) the Collection Date, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Transferee any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceedings.

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF TRANSFEREE (OR ITS ASSIGNS) TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY ORIGINATOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY

ORIGINATOR AGAINST TRANSFEREE (OR ITS ASSIGNS) OR ANY AFFILIATE THEREOF INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED BY ANY ORIGINATOR PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN.

however, that the rights and remedies with respect to (i) any breach of any representation and warranty made by any Originator pursuant to Article III; (ii) the indemnification and payment provisions of Article VIII; and (iii) Section 9.05 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
