ii RECEIVABLES SALE AGREEMENT THIS RECEIVABLES SALE AGREEMENT, dated as of June 24, 2002, is by and between COMDATA NETWORK, INC., a Maryland corporation ("Originator"), and COMDATA FUNDING CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation ("Buyer"). Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I hereto (or, if not defined in Exhibit I hereto, the meaning assigned to such term in Exhibit I to the Purchase Agreement). PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS Originator now owns, and from time to time hereafter will own, Receivables. Originator wishes to sell and assign to Buyer, and Buyer wishes to purchase from Originator, all of Originator's right, title and interest in and to such Receivables, together with the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto. Originator and Buyer intend the transactions contemplated hereby to be true sales of the Receivables from Originator to Buyer, providing Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables, and Originator and Buyer do not intend these transactions to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from Buyer to Originator. Following the purchase of Receivables from Originator, Buyer will sell undivided interests therein and in the associated Related Security and Collections pursuant to that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of June 24, 2002 (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the "Purchase Agreement") among Buyer, Originator, as Servicer, Jupiter Securitization Corporation ("Company"), the financial institutions from time to time party thereto as "Financial Institutions" and Bank One, NA (Main Office Chicago) or any successor agent appointed pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as agent for Company and such Financial Institutions (in such capacity, the "Agent"). NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: ARTICLE I. AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASE Section 1.1 Purchase of Receivables. (a) Effective on the date hereof, in consideration for the Purchase Price and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Originator does hereby sell, assign, transfer, set-over and otherwise convey to Buyer, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided herein), and Buyer does hereby purchase from Originator, all of Originator's right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date hereof and all Receivables thereafter arising through and including 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 date hereof Buyer shall acquire all of Originator's right, title and interest in and to all Receivables existing as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the date hereof and thereafter arising through and including the Termination Date, together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof. Buyer shall be obligated to pay the Purchase Price for the Receivables purchased hereunder in accordance with Section 1.2. In connection with consummation of the Purchase Price for any Receivables purchased hereunder, Buyer may request that Originator deliver, and Originator shall deliver, such approvals, opinions, information, reports or documents as Buyer may reasonably request. (b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale, which sale is absolute and irrevocable and provides Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables. Except for the Purchase Price Credits owed pursuant to Section 1.3, the sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to Originator; provided, however, that (i) Originator shall be liable to Buyer for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by Originator pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which Originator is a party, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by Buyer or any assignee thereof of any obligation of Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or other Related Security or any other obligations of Originator. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of such Receivables rather than loans secured thereby, Originator agrees that it will, on or prior to the date hereof and in accordance with Section 4.1(e)(ii), mark its master data processing records relating to the aging of the Receivables with a legend acceptable to Buyer and to the Agent (as Buyer's assignee), evidencing that Buyer has purchased such Receivables as provided in this Agreement and to note in its financial statements that its Receivables have been sold to Buyer. Upon the request of Buyer or the Agent (as Buyer's assignee), Originator will execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain the perfection of Buyer's ownership interest in the Receivables and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, or as Buyer or the Agent (as Buyer's assignee) may reasonably request. 2 Section 1.2 Payment for the Purchase. (a) The Purchase Price for the Purchase of Receivables in existence on the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date hereof (the "Initial Cutoff Date") shall be payable in full by Buyer to Originator on the date hereof, and shall be paid to Originator in the following manner: (i) by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds made available to Buyer in connection with its subsequent sale of an interest in such Receivables to the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement, (ii) by delivery of the proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from Originator to Buyer (a "Subordinated Loan") in an amount not to exceed the least of (A) the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price, (B) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering Buyer's Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount, (C) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering the Net Value less than the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Loans (including the Subordinated Loan proposed to be made on such date) and (D) 15% of the Purchase Price. Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to endorse on the schedule attached to the Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of Buyer thereunder, and (iii) the balance, by accepting a contribution by the Originator to the Buyer's capital such that the Buyer's Net Worth is not less than the Required Capital Amount. The Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the Initial Cutoff Date shall be due and owing in full by Buyer to Originator or its designee on the date each such Receivable came into existence (except that Buyer may, with respect to any such Purchase Price, offset against such Purchase Price any amounts owed by Originator to Buyer hereunder and which have become due but remain unpaid) and shall be paid to Originator in the manner provided in the following paragraphs (b), (c) and (d). (b) With respect to any Receivables coming into existence after the Initial Cutoff Date, on each Settlement Date, Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price therefor in accordance with Section 1.2(d) and in the following manner: first, by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds available to Buyer from its subsequent sale of an interest in the Receivables to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers under the Purchase Agreement or other cash on hand; second, by delivery of the proceeds of a Subordinated Loan, provided that the making of any such Subordinated Loan shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 1.2(a)(ii); and 3 third, unless Originator has declared the Termination Date to have occurred pursuant to Section 5.2, by accepting a contribution to its capital in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.2(a)(ii), Originator irrevocably agrees to advance each Subordinated Loan requested by Buyer on or prior to the Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which Buyer is not required under the Purchase Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Purchasers. (c) From and after the Termination Date, Originator shall not be obligated to (but may, at its option): (i) sell Receivables to Buyer unless Originator reasonably determines that the Purchase Price therefor will be satisfied with funds available to Buyer from sales of interests in the Receivables pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Collections, proceeds of Subordinated Loans, other cash on hand or otherwise, or (ii) contribute Receivables to Buyer's capital pursuant to clause third of Section 1.2(b). (d) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the Initial Cutoff Date shall be due and payable in full by Buyer to Originator on the date such Receivable came into existence, settlement of the Purchase Price between Buyer and Originator shall be effected on a monthly basis on Settlement Dates with respect to all Receivables coming into existence during the same Calculation Period and based on the information contained in the Settlement Report delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement for the Calculation Period then most recently ended. Although settlement shall be effected on Settlement Dates, increases or decreases in the amount owing under the Subordinated Note made pursuant to Section 1.2(b) and any contribution of capital by Originator to Buyer made pursuant to Section 1.2(b) shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the last Business Day of the Calculation Period to which such settlement relates. Section 1.3 Purchase Price Credit Adjustments. If on any day: (a) the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable is: (i) reduced as a result of any defective or rejected or returned goods or services, any discount or any adjustment or otherwise by Originator (other than cash Collections on account of the Receivables), (ii) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction), or (b) any of the representations and warranties set forth in Article II with respect to any Receivable are not true when made or deemed made, then, in such event, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a "Purchase Price Credit") against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder equal to the Outstanding Balance of such 4 Receivable (calculated before giving effect to the applicable reduction or cancellation); provided, that in the case of any reduction resulting from a discount or adjustment pursuant to clause (a)(i) hereof, the Purchase Price Credit shall be limited to the amount of such discount or adjustment. If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Original Balance of the Receivables coming into existence on any day, then Originator shall pay the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash immediately, provided that if the Termination Date has not occurred, Originator shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under the Subordinated Note. Section 1.4 Payments and Computations, Etc. All amounts to be paid or deposited by Buyer 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 Originator designated from time to time by Originator or as otherwise directed by Originator. In the event that any 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 any 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 1.5 Transfer of Records. (a) In connection with the Purchase of Receivables hereunder, Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to Buyer all of Originator's right and title to and interest in the Records relating to all Receivables sold hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the Purchase. In connection with such transfer, Originator hereby grants to each of Buyer, the Agent and the Servicer an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by Originator to account for the Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by Originator or is owned by others and used by 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, Originator hereby agrees that upon the request of Buyer (or Buyer's assignee), Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms. (b) Originator (i) shall take such action requested by Buyer and/or the Agent (as Buyer's assignee), from time to time hereafter, that may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that Buyer and its assigns under the Purchase Agreement have an enforceable ownership interest in the Records relating to the Receivables purchased from Originator hereunder, and (ii) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Buyer, the Agent and the Servicer each has an enforceable right (whether by license or sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used to account for the Receivables and/or to recreate such Records. 5 Section 1.6 Characterization. If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.1(b), any sale or contribution by Originator to Buyer of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties' intention that the sale of Receivables hereunder shall constitute a true sale thereof, Originator hereby grants to Buyer a duly perfected security interest in all of Originator's right, title and interest in, to and under all Receivables now existing and hereafter arising, all Collections and Related Security with respect thereto, each Lock-Box and Collection Account, all other rights and payments relating to the 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 Purchase Price of the Receivables together with all other obligations of Originator hereunder, which security interest shall be prior to all other Adverse Claims thereto. Buyer 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.

Originator's organizational number assigned to it by its jurisdiction of organization and Originator's Federal Employer Identification Number are correctly set forth on Exhibit II. Originator has not, within a period of one year prior to the date hereof, (i) changed the location of its principal place of business or chief executive office or its corporate structure, (ii) changed its legal name, (iii) become a "new debtor" (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(56) of the UCC in effect in the state of Maryland or (iv) changed its jurisdiction of organization.

The names and addresses of all Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the Collection Accounts of Originator at each Collection Bank and the post office box number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Exhibit III. Originator has not granted any Person dominion and control (other than Buyer) or "control" (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) (other than the Agent as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement) of any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or the right to take dominion and control of any such Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event. Originator has taken all steps necessary to ensure that the Buyer has legal and equitable title to, and ownership of, all Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes. Originator has the ability to identify within two (2) Business Days of deposit, all amounts that are deposited to the ACH Account as constituting Collections or non-Collections. (l) Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2001 no event has occurred that would have a Material Adverse Effect. (m) Names. In the past five (5) years, Originator has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement and other than the trade names listed on Exhibit II hereto. (n) Ownership of Buyer. Originator owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Buyer, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such capital 8 stock is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Buyer. (o) Not a Holding Company or an Investment Company. Originator 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. Originator is not, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, will not be required to register as, an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute. (p) Compliance with Law. Originator 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 (such determination to be made solely by Agent). 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, except where, in each of the foregoing cases, such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (such determination to be made solely by Agent). (q) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Originator 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 such material change as to which Buyer (or its assigns) has been notified in accordance with Section 4.1(a)(vii). (r) Payments to Originator. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Buyer hereunder, the Purchase Price received by 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 Originator of any Receivable hereunder is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. Sections 101 et seq.), as amended. (s) Enforceability of Contracts. 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 (as such Outstanding Balance may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Contract) and any accrued interest thereon, 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). (t) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included at any time in the Net Receivables Balance as an Eligible Receivable was, on the later to occur of the date of the Purchase and the date it came into existence, an Eligible Receivable on such date. 9 (u) Accounting. The fact that Originator does not account for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as sales for financial or tax accounting purposes does not jeopardize the legal characterization of the transactions contemplated herein as being true sales. (v) Identification of Receivables. Originator identifies receivables belonging to the "Company 1" accounting classification in the GEAC Accounting System with an account code beginning with "01000000000" followed by a two-alpha, three numeric identification system. (w) Master Data Processing Records. Originator does not maintain any master data processing records or other database that includes or refers to the Receivables other than those relating to the aging of the Receivables. (x) Receivables Not Evidenced by Negotiable Instruments. At the time each Receivable is created, such Receivable is not evidenced by a negotiable instrument. ARTICLE III. CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE Section 3.1 Conditions Precedent to Purchase. The Purchase under this Agreement is subject to the conditions precedent that (a) Buyer shall have received on or before the date of such purchase those documents listed on Schedule A and (b) all of the conditions to the initial purchase under the Purchase Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms thereof. Section 3.2 Conditions Precedent to Subsequent Payments.

The failure of Originator to satisfy any of the foregoing conditions precedent, however, shall give rise to a right of Buyer to rescind the related 10 purchase and direct Originator to pay to Buyer an amount equal to the Purchase Price payment that shall have been made with respect to any Receivables related thereto.
