No portion of the proceeds of any Credit Extension shall be used in any manner that causes such Credit Extension or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation thereof or to violate the Exchange Act.

2.3. Register; Notes.

(a) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender and the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans from time to time (the "Register"). The Register shall be

for inspection by the Borrower or the Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Revolving Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lender, absent manifest error; provided, failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Revolving Commitments or the Borrower's Obligations in respect of any Revolving Loan. The Borrower hereby designates the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower's agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.3, and the Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent such entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute "Indemnitees."

(b) Revolving Loan Notes. If so requested by the Lender prior to the Closing Date, or upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice at any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of the Lender pursuant to Section 9.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after the Borrower's receipt of such notice) a Revolving Loan Note or Revolving Loan Notes, as so requested, to evidence the Revolving Loan.

2.4. Interest on Revolving Loans.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) as follows: (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or (ii) if a LIBOR Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Revolving Loan, the date of the making of such Revolving Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Revolving Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Loan shall be excluded; provided, if a Revolving Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be paid on that Revolving Loan.

(c) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Revolving Loan shall be payable in arrears on (i) each Settlement Date applicable to that Revolving Loan; (ii) with respect to any prepayment in whole or in part of such Revolving Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, the Settlement Date immediately following such prepayment in an amount equal to the interest accrued and unpaid on the amount so prepaid to the date of prepayment; and (iii) at maturity.

2.5. Continuation. Subject to Section 2.14 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the expiration of any Interest Period

applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such LIBOR Rate Loan shall automatically continue for an additional Interest Period at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate calculated as of the most recent Interest Rate Reset Date.

2.6. Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Revolving Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws) payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 or 2.12, as the case may be, at a rate that is 3% per annum in excess of the Interest Rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Revolving Loans until no Event of Default is then continuing. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.6 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lender.

2.7. Fees. The Borrower and CPS agree, jointly and severally, to pay each of the fees referred to in the Fee Letter.

2.8. Call Protection.

(a) The Facility shall not be terminated prior to the Maturity Date.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Facility is terminated by the Borrower or CPS prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender, on the date of such termination, a fee equal to the product of (x) the applicable Interest Rate at the time of such termination, (y) the Revolving Commitments and (z) the remaining term of the Facility (expressed as an annualized number).

2.9. Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Borrowing Base Deficiency. The Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans within one (1) Business Day of the earlier of (i) an Authorized Officer of the Borrower becoming aware that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists and (ii) receipt by the Borrower of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, in each case in an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency, which shall be applied to repay the Revolving Loans.

(b) Repurchase Events. Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event: (i) the Borrower shall cause the Originator to repurchase each affected Receivable at a price equal to the Repurchase Price and (ii) the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the Repurchase Price with respect to the related Receivable(s).

(c) Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to Sections 2.9(a) and 2.9(b), the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable net proceeds.

2.10. Payments during Event of Default or Following a Funding Termination Event. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or a Funding Termination Event on each Settlement Date, (a) all payments made hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including in respect of proceeds from any Collateral) and (b) all amounts on deposit in the Controlled Accounts and any income and gains from investment of funds in any Controlled Account that accrued during the immediately preceding Collection Period shall be applied by the Controlled Account Bank at the written direction of the Collateral Agent as follows:

(i) First, to the payment of, and in the same priority as, items (i) through (vi) and (viii) through (ix) in Section 2.12 below;

(ii) Second, to the Lender, to reduce the outstanding principal balance on the Revolving Loans to zero; and

(iii) Third, to the Borrower, any remaining amounts.

2.11. Controlled Accounts and Amounts.

(a) On or prior to the date hereof, the Borrower shall cause to be established and maintained, (i) securities accounts at the Controlled Account Bank in the name of the Collateral Agent designated as the Collection Account and the Spread Account as to which the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lender has control over such accounts within the meaning of Section 9-106 of the UCC pursuant to the Controlled Account Control Agreement (each, a "Controlled Account" and collectively, the "Controlled Accounts"), and (ii) a deposit account at the Lockbox Account Bank in the name of the Borrower designated as the Lockbox Account as to which the Collateral Agent has control over such account for the benefit of the Lender within the meaning of Section 9-104(a)(2) of the UCC pursuant to the Lockbox Account Control Agreement.

(b) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and shall be continuing, the Borrower or the Servicer shall be permitted to direct the investment of the funds from time to time held in the Controlled Accounts in Permitted Investments and to sell or liquidate such Permitted Investments and reinvest proceeds from such sale or liquidation in other Permitted Investments (but none of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, or the Lender shall have liability whatsoever in respect of any failure by the Controlled Account Bank to do so), with all such proceeds and reinvestments to be held in the applicable Controlled Account; provided, however, that the maturity of the Permitted Investments on deposit in the Controlled Accounts shall be no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn therefrom pursuant to this Agreement; and, provided further, that the Borrower shall remit into the applicable Controlled Account an amount equal to any losses realized on Permitted Investments contained therein. No Permitted Investment shall be liquidated at a loss at the direction of the Borrower except to the extent necessary to make a required payment as described herein. All income and gains from the investment of funds in the Controlled Accounts shall be retained in the respective Controlled Account from which they were derived, until the next Settlement Date, at which time such income and gains shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10 or Section 2.12, as the case may be. As between the

Borrower and the Collateral Agent, the Borrower shall treat all income, gains and losses from the investment of amounts in the Controlled Accounts as its income or loss for federal, state and local income tax purposes.

2.12. Application of Collections.

To the extent no Event of Default or Funding Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent will instruct the Controlled Account Bank (or will instruct the Servicer to instruct the Controlled Account Bank pursuant to the Servicing Agreement), on each Settlement Date, to transfer collected funds held by the Controlled Account Bank in the Collection Account, in the following amounts and priority in accordance with the Monthly Servicing Report:

(i) to any Eligible Hedge Counterparty, amounts due under any outstanding Interest Rate Agreement, except amounts due as fees, expenses or as a result of the occurrence of an event of default or termination event under such Interest Rate Agreement or otherwise due upon termination of such Interest Rate Agreement, which amounts shall be paid as provided in (vi) below;

(ii) to the Servicer, any unpaid Servicing Fees;

(iii) on a pari passu basis, (1) to the Custodian, the Custodian Fees and Expenses accrued and unpaid as of the last day of the preceding month, (2) to the Backup Servicer, the Backup Servicing Fees and reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, any transition costs) of the Backup Servicer accrued and unpaid as of the last day of the preceding month, and (3) to the Controlled Account Bank, the Controlled Account Bank Fees accrued and unpaid as of the last day of the preceding month;

(iv) to the Administrative Agent, to pay any costs or fees due to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent,

(v) to the Lender, any accrued but unpaid interest, fees and expenses in connection with this Agreement and any other Credit Document;

(vi) to any Eligible Hedge Counterparty, any unpaid fees, expenses or amounts owed as a consequence of an event of default or termination event under an outstanding Interest Rate Agreement or otherwise due upon termination of such Interest Rate Agreement;

(vii) to the Lender, any amounts necessary to reduce the Borrowing Base Deficiency, if any, to zero;

(viii) to the Administrative Agent, to be deposited in the Spread Account to fund the excess of the Required Spread Account Amount over the amounts then on deposit in the Spread Account;

(ix) on a pari passu basis, (1) to the Custodian, any other amounts payable to the Custodian in its capacity as Custodian pursuant to this Agreement or the Custodial Agreement to the extent unpaid by the Borrower and not covered under item (iii) above, (2) to the Backup Servicer, any other amounts payable to the Backup Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or the Backup Servicing Agreement to the extent unpaid by the Borrower and not covered under item (iii) above, and (3) to the Controlled Account Bank, any other amounts payable to the Controlled Account Bank pursuant to this Agreement or the Control Agreements to the extent unpaid by the Borrower hereunder and not covered under item (iii) above; and

(x) prior to the Maturity Date, and provided that no Borrowing Base Deficiency would occur after giving effect to such distribution, to the Borrower for its own account.

2.13. General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds, without defense, recoupment, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lender, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at 1345 Avenue of the Americas, 46th Floor, New York, New York 10105 or via wire transfer of immediately available funds to account number ###-###-#### maintained by the Administrative Agent with Bank of America (ABA No. 026 009 593) in New York City (or at such other location or bank account within the City and State of New York as may be designated by the Administrative Agent from time to time); funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by the Borrower on the next Business Day (except to the extent such delay in payment results solely from the Controlled Account Bank's failure to distribute funds on deposit in the Collection Account and available for distribution as of 3:00 p.m. on such Business Day in accordance with Section 2.10 or 2.12).

(b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Revolving Loan (other than voluntary or mandatory prepayments of any Revolving Loan as provided in Section 2.4(c)) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to the Lender at such address or via wire transfer as the Lender shall indicate in writing, all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due with respect thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if the Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of LIBOR Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e) Subject to the proviso set forth in the definition of "Interest Period," whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder.

(f) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge the Borrower's accounts with the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in order to cause timely payment to be made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose).

(g) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower and the Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is not made in conformity with this Section 2.13. Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate determined pursuant to Section 2.6 (if applicable) from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

2.14. Making or Maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans.

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Reset Date with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate ("LIBOR Unavailability"), the Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Revolving Loans may be made as LIBOR Rate Loans until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lender that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (ii) the Borrower shall have the right to rescind any Funding Notice previously given by the Borrower with respect to the Revolving Loans in respect of which such determination was made by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Administrative Agent gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to the Lender), (iii) all then-existing Revolving Loans shall convert automatically to Base Rate Loans at the end of the then-applicable Interest Period if such circumstances still exist at such time and (iv) any subsequent borrowings shall be made as Base Rate Loans until such circumstances no longer exist. At such time as the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lender that any period of LIBOR Unavailability has ended, on the first day of the Interest Period next following such determination, all Base Rate Loans carried by the Lender as a consequence of this Section 2.14(a) shall automatically convert to LIBOR Rate Loans having an initial Interest Period commencing on the first day of such Interest Period.

(b) Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that on any date the Lender shall have reasonably determined in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) that the making or maintaining of its LIBOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful after the date hereof as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, the Lender shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination. Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Lender to make Revolving Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Lender at such time as the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (2) to the extent such determination by the Lender relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice, the Lender shall make such Revolving Loan (or continue such Revolving Loan) as a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Lender's obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans (the "Affected Loans") shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by the Lender as described above relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice, the Borrower shall have the option, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.1(b)(ii), to rescind such Funding Notice by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to the Lender).

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Borrower shall compensate the Lender, upon written request by the Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or calculated to be due and payable by the Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by the Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which the Lender would sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by the Lender) a borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans occurs on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Revolving Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower.

(d) Booking of LIBOR Rate Loans. The Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

2.15. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs and Taxes. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that the Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by the Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects the Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of the Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to the Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of the Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting the Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Revolving Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by the Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, the Borrower shall pay to the Lender within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as the Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate the Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. The Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.15(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment.

(i) In the event that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender's

Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Revolving Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to the Lender under this Section 2.15(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(ii) If any of the events requiring payments of additional amounts by Borrower under Section 2.15(a) or (b) occurs, Lender shall take such steps as may be reasonable to avoid Borrower being required to pay such additional amounts and shall consult with Borrower in good faith with a view to agreeing to alternative arrangements whereby any such requirement can be avoided or mitigated, including without limitation, fulfilling any of Lender’s obligations through another branch or affiliate in the United States, provided that no such alternative arrangements will be required that would be disadvantageous to Lender and would result in significantly increased cost to Lender.

(iii) If Lender demands payment with respect to amounts owed under Section 2.15(a) or (b), Borrower shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, within ninety (90) days after receipt of such demand, to remove Lender (the “Affected Person”) and to designate another lender (the “Replacement Person”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to purchase the Affected Person’s outstanding Revolving Loans and to assume the Affected Person’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that increased costs incurred by such Lender prior to the date of its replacement shall have been paid as provided herein. The Affected Person agrees to sell to the Replacement Person its outstanding Loans (at par, with accrued interest through the date of purchase, in immediately available funds) and to delegate to the Replacement Person its obligations to Borrower under this Agreement. Upon such sale and delegation by the Affected Person and the purchase and assumption by the Replacement Person, and compliance with the provisions of Section 9.6 hereof, the Affected Person shall cease to be a Lender hereunder and the Replacement Person shall become a Lender under this Agreement. Each Affected Person shall continue to be entitled to receive from Borrower its share of interest, fees, costs and other sums which have not been assigned by the Affected Person to the Replacement Person.

2.16. Taxes; Withholding, etc.

(a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by each Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net income of the Lender) imposed, levied, collected,

withheld or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of a Credit Party or by any federation or organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment.

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If a Credit Party or any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party in respect of interest paid or payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or the Lender under any of the Credit Documents: (i) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent as soon as practicable of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as the Borrower becomes aware of it; (ii) the Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Administrative Agent or the Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of the Administrative Agent or the Lender; (iii) the sum payable by any Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the Administrative Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and (iv) within thirty (30) days (or as soon as practicable thereafter) after paying any sum from which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days (or as soon as practicable thereafter) after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority; provided, no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Lender under clause (iii) above (and in the case of any payment required under clause (ii) above, such payment shall be treated as a payment under the Credit Documents to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Lender as the case may be) except to the extent that any change after the date hereof in any such requirement for a deduction, withholding or payment as is mentioned therein shall result in an increase in the rate of such deduction, withholding or payment from that in effect at the date hereof, in respect of payments to the Lender.

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to the Lender in respect of United States federal withholding taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(b) above if the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by Lender to comply with the provisions of Section 2.16(d) hereof. In the event the Borrower has actual knowledge that it is required to, or there arises, in the Borrower’s reasonable opinion, a substantial likelihood that the Borrower will be required to, pay an increased amount or otherwise indemnify the Lender for or on account of any Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(b), the Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender of the nature of such Taxes and shall furnish such information to Lender as it may reasonably request. In the event the Borrower provides the notice described in the previous sentence, the Lender shall consult with the Borrower in good faith to determine what action may be required to avoid or reduce such Taxes and shall use reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce such Taxes, provided that no action shall be required to be taken that would be disadvantageous to the Lender and would result in significantly increased cost to such Lender.

(d) If the Lender is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, prior to the first payment to the Lender under this Agreement, the Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (i) two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates), and (ii) a duly completed copy of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates). The Lender shall certify that (x) in the case of any form provided pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence it is entitled to receive payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (y) in the case of any form provided pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence it is entitled to receive payments hereunder without deduction or withholding of any United States federal backup withholding taxes. The Lender also agrees to deliver further copies of said Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-9 (or applicable successor form and any related forms as may from time to time be adopted to document a claim to which such form relates), and any related certification as described in the preceding sentence, as the case may be, (i) on or before the date that any such form previously provided expires or becomes obsolete, (ii) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously provided unless a change in a treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to the date on which delivery would otherwise be required that renders all such forms inapplicable or that would prevent the Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and the Lender so advises the Borrower and (iii) upon reasonable request of the Borrower.

2.17. Obligation to Mitigate.

(a) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole and reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.16, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or the Lender in its sole and reasonable discretion (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or the Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or the Lender is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or the Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

2.18. Determination of Borrowing Base; Eligible Receivables.

purposes of the Credit Documents, including providing the Lender with any information reasonably requested pursuant to Section 9.19.

5.8. Separateness. The Borrower acknowledges that the Lender is entering into this Agreement in reliance upon the Borrower's identity as a legal entity that is separate from any other Person.

same is not objected to in writing by the Lender within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

The Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than CPS, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates) in all or any part of its Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans or in any other Obligation; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no participations may be sold to any Person acquiring such participation with the assets of, or for the benefit of, any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, any "plan" subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, or any entity whose underlying assets include plan assets by reason of a plan's investment in such entity. The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender

granting such participation, shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Revolving Loan or Revolving Loan Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant's participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Revolving Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Revolving Commitment or Revolving Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant's participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by CPS or the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents, the Guarantor from the Borrowing Base Guaranty or the Limited Guaranty (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Revolving Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. Each of CPS and the Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 9.6; provided, (i) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 and 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent, (ii) a participant that would be a Non-US Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such participant and such participant complies with Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender and (iii) such participant complies with the written statement and notice requirements therein. To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.4 as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding any participation made hereunder (i) such selling Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Borrower for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and (iii) except as set forth above, the Credit Parties, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Credit Parties relating to the Obligations and to approve, without the consent of or consultation with any participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the amounts of each participant's participation (the "Participant Register"). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(i) Certain Other Assignments. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 9.6, the Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Revolving Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to the Lender, and its Revolving Loan Notes, if any, to secure obligations of the Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal

Reserve Bank; provided, the Lender, as between the Borrower and the Lender, shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a "Lender" or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(j) Fortress Affiliate Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 9.6, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that (a) Fortress and/or its Affiliates may, in its sole discretion, at any time, and from time to time, in connection with any assignment made in accordance with this Section 9.6 to any Affiliates of Fortress (each such Affiliate, a "Fortress Affiliate Lender"), (i) assign to any Fortress Affiliate Lender all or any portion of Fortress’ or any Fortress Affiliate Lender’s Revolving Loans then existing and/or Fortress’ or any such Fortress Affiliate Lender’s Revolving Commitments then outstanding in such percentages or fixed dollar amounts as Fortress or any such Fortress Affiliate Lender shall determine in their respective sole discretion, and (ii) in furtherance of the foregoing, request the Borrower to, and the Borrower shall, execute and deliver to Fortress or such Fortress Affiliate Lender, as the case may be, any Revolving Loan Note (or replacement therefor) requested pursuant to Section 2.3(b) to reflect such assignment and (b) Fortress and one or more Fortress Affiliate Lenders may enter into agreements by and among Fortress and such Fortress Affiliate Lenders and (if applicable) the Administrative Agent with respect to such assignments, including, without limitation, the ability to create a sequential pay feature amongst Fortress and such Fortress Affiliate Lenders; provided that the terms of any such agreements do not affect the terms of the Credit Documents (other than the Assignment Agreement to the extent required to reflect such agreements) or the Borrower’s rights or obligations under any Credit Document; provided, further, that (1) the percentage or fixed dollar amount of such assignment is set forth in the related Assignment Agreement, (2) the aggregate Revolving Commitment amongst Fortress and such Fortress Affiliate Lenders immediately following any such assignment remains unchanged from the aggregate Revolving Commitments of Fortress and the Fortress Affiliate Lenders immediately prior to such assignment and (3) no such assignment shall increase any of the Borrower’s Obligations hereunder; and provided, further, any such Fortress Affiliate Lender subject to any such assignment for any such percentage or fixed dollar amount (whether such assignment is solely of the existing Revolving Loans or the outstanding Revolving Commitments, or both) shall be a "Lender" for all purposes hereunder, under the other Credit Documents and under the Related Agreements subject, solely as among Fortress and the Fortress Affiliate Lenders, to such restrictions set forth amongst Fortress and any such Fortress Affiliate Lenders set forth in the related Assignment Agreement (including the ability for any such assignee to not be assigned any future funding obligations in respect of Revolving Commitments other than to the extent of any repayments received by such assignee on the principal balance of the assigned Revolving Loan (provided that such Assignment Agreement shall also provide that the relevant assignor expressly retains any such future funding obligations beyond principal repayments to such assignee on the principal balance of such assigned Revolving Loan)).

9.7. Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

9.8. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of the Borrower set forth in Sections 2.15, 2.16, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 and 9.10 shall survive the payment of the Revolving Loans and the termination hereof.

9.9. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or the Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and the Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or any of the Interest Rate Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

9.10. Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor the Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lender (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lender), or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lender enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

9.11. Severability. In case any provision or obligation hereunder or any Revolving Loan Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.12. Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

9.13. APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS

PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) THEREOF.

IN THE EVENT CT CORPORATION SYSTEM. SHALL NOT BE ABLE TO ACCEPT SERVICE OF PROCESS AS AFORESAID AND IF CPS OR THE BORROWER, AS APPLICABLE, SHALL NOT MAINTAIN AN OFFICE IN NEW YORK CITY, SUCH CREDIT PARTY SHALL PROMPTLY APPOINT AND MAINTAIN AN AGENT QUALIFIED TO ACT AS AN AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS WITH RESPECT TO THE COURTS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 9.14 ABOVE, AND ACCEPTABLE TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AS CPS' OR THE BORROWER'S, AS APPLICABLE, AUTHORIZED AGENT TO ACCEPT AND ACKNOWLEDGE ON THE BORROWER'S BEHALF SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS WHICH MAY BE SERVED IN ANY SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING.

9.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF CPS AND THE BORROWER HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN IT RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH OF CPS AND THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT IT HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT IT WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH OF CPS AND THE BORROWER FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 9.15 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE REVOLVING LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

9.16. Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Revolving Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lender and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if the Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at the Lender's

option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or the Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

9.17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic image scan transmission (e.g., "PDF" or "tif" via email) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

9.18. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

9.19. Money Control Act. The Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of the Lender) hereby notifies CPS and the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies CPS and the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each of CPS and the Borrower and other information that will allow the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify CPS and the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

9.20. Prior Agreements. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents contain the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and all prior agreements among or between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and unless specifically set forth in a writing contemporaneous herewith the terms, conditions and provisions of any and all such prior agreements do not survive execution of this Agreement.

9.21. Third Party Beneficiaries. The Backup Servicer, the Custodian, the Controlled Account Bank and the Lockbox Account Bank shall be express third party beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 2.10(i), Section 2.12(iii) and Section 2.12(ix).

9.22. Exclusivity; Right of First Refusal.

(a) Each Credit Party agrees that, subject to the availability of Revolving Commitments, no less than 50% of receivables (by principal balance) that qualify as Eligible Receivables that the Originator or its Affiliates originates or acquires during any Collection Period during the Revolving Commitment Period shall be financed through the Facility (such agreement, the "Exclusivity Covenant").

(b) CPS shall notify Fortress of its intention to enter into as a borrower, either directly or indirectly (acting through a special purpose borrowing entity, or otherwise indirectly)

any financing facility other than the Facility contemplated by this Agreement (any such facility, a "Proposed Facility"). Subject to clause (c) below, within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice, Fortress shall have the right to prevent CPS from entering into such Proposed Facility by providing financing on all of the same material terms as the Proposed Facility (such right, the "Right of First Refusal"). In no event shall the Borrower enter into any financing facility other than the Facility contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fortress shall not be entitled to exercise the Right of First Refusal with respect to additional financing obtained by CPS or its Affiliates after the Closing Date (the "Allowed Financing") so long as CPS and its Affiliates remain in compliance with the Exclusivity Covenant. At any time as the amount financed hereunder reaches 85% of the maximum initial Revolving Commitment, the Lender, at its sole discretion, may increase the Revolving Commitment at such time by two (2) $25,000,000 increments (which increments may be exercised together or separately in Lender's sole discretion), provided, however, that advances pursuant to such increased Revolving Commitment, but not advances pursuant to the initial Revolving Commitment, shall be on substantially the same financial terms as are applicable to the Allowed Financing at the time of the related increase in the Revolving Commitment. In compliance with the foregoing, CPS and its Affiliates shall remain obligated to comply with the Exclusivity Covenant.

(d) In the event that the Administrative Agent chooses not to provide such financing, the Credit Parties (other than the Borrower) may enter into the Proposed Facility; provided, however, that prior to entering into the Proposed Facility, the Credit Parties shall have taken measures reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to ensure that the selection procedures used to allocate receivables among any Proposed Facility or Allowed Financing, on the one hand, and the Facility contemplated hereby, on the other, will not (x) result in the Receivables pledged hereunder and under the Security Agreement being less desirable or valuable than other comparable Receivables originated or acquired by a Credit Party or (y) materially and adversely affect the interests of the Lender or the Agents.

(e) In addition, each of CPS and the Borrower agrees that, prior to selling any Receivables to (x) any third party or (y) any Affiliate other than an Affiliate that intends to hold such Receivables until the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or to securitize such Receivables, the Borrower shall offer such Receivable for sale to the Lender; provided, that in no event shall CPS or the Borrower sell any Receivables in a transaction that results in a loss to any Agent or the Lender. The Lender shall have five (5) Business Days following the day on which the Lender receives offering materials (the "Offering Materials") with respect to such Receivables from CPS or the Borrower, as applicable, to provide an indicative bid (the "Indicative Bid"). If CPS or the Borrower, as applicable, accepts a Lender's Indicative Bid, the Lender shall have fifteen (15) Business Days from the time of acceptance of such Indicative Bid to complete its due diligence on the Receivables and either provide its final bid (the "Final Bid") for such Receivables or provide a rejection thereof to CPS or the Borrower, as applicable. After providing a Final Bid, the Lender shall have an additional fifteen (15) Business Days to close the purchase of such Receivables. The failure of the Lender to so respond or purchase within the applicable five (5) or fifteen (15) Business Day periods, shall constitute a waiver of the Lender's right to purchase such Receivables.

(f) Each of CPS and the Borrower agrees that, subject to eligibility criteria used by a Rating Agency in connection with rating a term securitization of receivables, Receivables selected to be sold, or offered for sale, pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be selected in a manner designed not to (x) result in the Receivables pledged hereunder and under the Security Agreement being less desirable or valuable than other comparable receivables originated or acquired by a Credit Party or (y) materially and adversely affect the interests of the Lender or the Agents.

9.23. Confidentiality. Each Credit Party agrees that the terms included in this Agreement and disclosed in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be kept strictly confidential, shall not be reproduced or disclosed (except as required by law, including, without limitation, the filing requirements of the Exchange Act), and shall not be used by either Credit Party other than in connection with the transaction described herein except with the prior written consent of Fortress; provided, however, that Fortress hereby consents to each Credit Party's disclosure of (i) this Agreement to its respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, agents and advisors who are directly involved in the implementation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the extent such persons agree to hold the same in confidence, (ii) this Agreement as required by applicable law or compulsory legal process (in which case each Credit Party agrees to inform Fortress promptly thereof) and (iii) the terms of this Agreement upon and after its filing by CPS in accordance with the Exchange Act.
