Following the purchase of Receivables from Originators, until the Purchase Agreement referred to below is terminated, Buyer will sell all of its right, title and interest therein and in the associated Related Security and Collections pursuant to that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of September 28, 2012 (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified, the “Purchase Agreement”) among Buyer, as Seller, LKQ Corporation (“LKQ”), as Servicer, the entities party thereto from time to time as Conduits, the entities party thereto from time to time as “Financial Institutions” (each, a “Financial Institution”), the entities party thereto from time to time as Managing Agents and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. or any successor agent appointed pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as agent for the Purchasers thereunder (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
ARTICLE I
AMOUNTS AND TERMS

Section 1.1    Purchase of Receivables.
(a)    Initial Purchase. On the date hereof, the Originators shall sell to the Buyer all Receivables outstanding as of the date hereof and the Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes listed on Exhibit III. On the date of such Purchase, the Buyer shall, upon satisfaction of the

1


applicable conditions set forth in Article III, pay (a) the Purchase Price for the Receivables sold to it in the manner provided in Section 1.1(c), and (b) $1.00 for the Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes listed on Exhibit III.
(b)    Subsequent Purchases. On each Business Day following the date hereof until the Sale Termination Date, each Originator shall sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall purchase from each Originator, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, all Receivables originated or otherwise acquired by such Originator which have not previously been sold or contributed to the Buyer
(c)    Payment of Purchase Price. With respect to any Receivables purchased on the date hereof and coming into existence after the date hereof, the Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price therefor in the following manner:
(i)    first, by the application of any unused Purchase Price Credits owed by such Originator to the Buyer;
(ii)    second, by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds available to the Buyer from (x) its subsequent sale of the Receivables under the Purchase Agreement or (y) other cash on hand; and
(iii)    third, with the consent of the Buyer, with respect to Keystone, as an amount deemed to be netted against a contribution to the capital of the Buyer; and
(iv)    fourth, by delivery of the proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from such Originator to Buyer (each a “Subordinated Loan”) in an amount not to exceed the Maximum Subordinated Loan Amount. Each Originator is hereby authorized by the 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 the Buyer thereunder.
Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the date hereof shall be due and payable in full by the Buyer to the Originators on the date such Receivable came into existence, and payment of such Purchase Price shall be made as provided in this Section 1.1(c), final settlement of the Purchase Price between the Buyer and the Originators shall be effected on a monthly basis on each Settlement Date with respect to all Receivables coming into existence during the calendar month preceding such Settlement Date and based on the information contained in the Monthly Report delivered by the Servicer pursuant to the Purchase Agreement for the calendar month then most recently ended. On each Settlement Date, the Buyer and the Originators shall cause a reconciliation to be made in respect of all purchases that shall have been made during the calendar month then most recently ended. Although settlement shall be effected on Settlement Dates, any net increase or decrease in the amount owing under each Subordinated Note made pursuant to this Section 1.1(c) shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the last Business Day of the calendar month to which such settlement relates.

(c)    Ownership of Receivables and Related Security. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchase of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of “accounts” (as such term is used in Article 9 of the UCC), 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, each sale of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to any Originator; provided, however, that (i) each Originator shall be liable to Buyer for all representations, warranties and covenants made by such Originator pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which such 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 the applicable Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or other Related Security or any other obligations of such 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, each 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 Receivables with a legend acceptable to Buyer and to the Administrative Agent (as Buyer’s assignee), evidencing that Buyer has purchased such Receivables as provided in this Agreement (or, if any master data processing records cannot be marked with a legend, mark the related physical records with such a stamped legend no less frequently than monthly) and to note in its financial statements that its Receivables have been sold to Buyer. Each 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 Administrative Agent (as Buyer’s assignee) may reasonably request.
Section 1.2    Collections.
(a)    The Servicer shall apply all Collections released to the Buyer pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and all amounts paid by the Originators pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof (i) first, to pay the Purchase Price then owing by the Buyer hereunder on such date, (ii) second, if such date is a Settlement Date, to pay the accrued and unpaid interest on the Subordinated Loan for the most recently ended calendar month (as provided in Section 1.2(c)), and (iii) third, to prepay in whole or in part the principal amount of the Subordinated Loan. The Servicer shall, on or before each Settlement Date, deposit into an account of the Buyer or the Buyer’s assignee all remaining Collections of Receivables (if any) then held by the Servicer (but only to the extent such Collections have not been previously applied to purchase new Receivables hereunder or to pay the Subordinated Loan).
(b)    In the event that the Originators believe that collections which are not Collections of Receivables have been deposited into an account of the Buyer or the Buyer’s assignee, the Originators shall so advise the Buyer and, on the Business Day following such identification to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction, the Originators shall instruct the Servicer to remit such collections to the Originators.
(c)    On each Settlement Date, the Buyer shall, to the extent Collections are available for such purpose under the Purchase Agreement and are not required to pay the

3


Purchase Price for any Receivables purchased hereunder, pay to the Originators accrued interest on the Subordinated Loan; provided that each such payment shall be made solely from (i) Collections of Receivables after all other amounts then due from the Buyer under the Purchase Agreement have been paid in full and all amounts then required to be set aside by the Buyer or the Servicer under the Purchase Agreement have been so set aside or (ii) excess cash flow from operations of the Buyer which is not required to be applied to the payment of any Obligations; and provided, further that no such payment shall be made at any time when an “Event of Termination” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing. At such time following the Sale Termination Date when all Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Buyer shall apply all Collections of Receivables received by the Buyer pursuant to Section 1.2(a) (and not previously distributed) first to the payment of accrued interest on the Subordinated Loan, and then to the reduction of the principal amount of the Subordinated Loan, in each case, allocated among the Originators in the Buyer’s sole discretion.
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 goods or services, any discount or any adjustment or otherwise by the applicable 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 were not true and correct with respect to any Receivable on the date it was sold hereunder,
then, in such event, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder in an amount equal to the amount of such reduction or cancellation in the case of clause (a) or the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable in the case of clause (b). If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Original Balance of the Receivables being sold by the applicable Originator on any day, then such Originator shall pay the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash promptly thereafter, provided that if the Sale Termination Date has not occurred, the applicable Originator shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under the Subordinated Note to the extent permitted thereunder.
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 the applicable Originator designated from time to time by such Originator or as otherwise directed by such 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

4


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, each Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to Buyer all of such Originator’s right and title to and interest in the Records (other than Contracts) and other Related Security relating to all of its Receivables sold hereunder and all rights (with respect to enforcement or otherwise) under the Contracts relating to all of its Receivables sold hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the Purchase. In connection with such transfer, each Originator hereby grants to each of Buyer, the Administrative Agent 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 Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, 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 Originator to such grant of the license described herein be required, such Originator hereby agrees that upon the request of Buyer (or the Administrative Agent as Buyer’s assignee), such Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor and provided further that none of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or the Servicer shall exercise its rights to such license until after the occurrence of an Amortization Event. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms. Upon the termination of this Agreement any such software used by the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or the Servicer during the term of this Agreement shall be returned to the applicable Originator.
(b)    Each Originator (i) shall take all action 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 and other Related Security relating to the Receivables purchased from such Originator hereunder, and (ii) shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that Buyer, the Administrative 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, including, without limitation, any such action reasonably requested by the Buyer and/or the Administrative Agent (as the Buyer’s assignee) from time to time hereafter.
Section 1.6    Characterization. (a) If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.1(c), any sale or contribution by any Originator to Buyer of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized by a court of competent jurisdiction as a secured loan and not a sale (a “Recharacterization”), or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement is and shall be deemed, as of the date hereof, 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, each Originator hereby grants to Buyer a security interest in all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under the following assets, now existing or hereafter arising: (i) all Receivables originated by it, (ii) the Collections, (iii) each Lock-Box,

5


(iv) each Collection Account, (v) all Related Security, (vi) all other rights and payments relating to such Receivables, (vii) all proceeds of any of the foregoing, and (viii) all other assets in which the Buyer has acquired, may hereafter acquire and/or purports to have acquired an interest hereunder, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan (in the event that any sale or contribution hereunder is characterized as a secured 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. After the occurrence of an Termination Event, 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 after default under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. Each Originator hereby authorizes the Buyer (or its assigns), within the meaning of Section 9-509 of any applicable enactment of the UCC, as secured party, to file, without the signature of the debtor, the UCC financing statements contemplated hereby. In the case of any Recharacterization, each of the Originators and the Buyer represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of Collections by such Originator to the Buyer will have been (i) in payment of a debt incurred by such Originator in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Originator and the Buyer and (ii) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Originator and the Buyer.


    (b)    Each Originator acknowledges that Buyer, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, shall assign to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers thereunder, all of its rights, remedies, powers and privileges under this Agreement and that the Administrative Agent may further assign such rights, remedies, powers and privileges to the extent permitted by the Purchase Agreement. Each Originator agrees that the Administrative Agent, as the assignee of the Buyer, shall, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, have the right to enforce this Agreement and to exercise directly all of Buyer’s rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to give or withhold any consents or approvals of Buyer to be given or withheld hereunder, and, in any case without regard to whether specific reference is made to Buyer’s assigns in the provisions of this Agreement which set forth such rights and remedies) and each Originator agrees to cooperate fully with the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers in the exercise of such rights and remedies. Each Originator further agrees to give to the Administrative Agent copies of all notices it is required to give to Buyer hereunder.

Each Receivable, together with the Contract and Invoice 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), unless such contravention would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Such Originator acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers are entering into the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement in reliance upon Buyer’s identity as a legal entity that is separate from such Originator and any Affiliates thereof. Therefore, from and after the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement, such Originator will take all reasonable steps including, without limitation, all steps that Buyer or any assignee of Buyer may from time to time reasonably request to maintain Buyer’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest to third parties that Buyer 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 Affiliate.

In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to such Originator or any Affiliate of such Originator, such Originator will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Bank for deposit into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof and, at all times prior to such remittance, such Originator will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of Buyer and its assigns. Such Originator will transfer exclusive ownership, dominion and control of each Lock-Box and Collection Account owned by it to Buyer and, will not grant the right to take dominion and control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to Buyer (and its assigns) as contemplated by this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement.
(j)    Taxes. Such Originator will file all tax returns and reports required by law to be filed by it and promptly pay all taxes and governmental charges at any time owing.
(k)    Insurance. Such Originator will maintain in effect, or cause to be maintained in effect, at such Originator’s own expense, such casualty and liability insurance as such Originator deems appropriate in its good faith business judgment.
Section 4.2    Negative Covenants of Originators. Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms, each Originator hereby covenants, as to itself, that:
(a)    Name Change, Offices and Records. Such Originator will not change its name (within the meaning of Section 9-507(c) of any applicable enactment of the UCC) or its identity, corporate structure, jurisdiction of organization, or relocate its chief executive office or any office where Records are kept unless it shall have: (i) given the Buyer and the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof, (ii) delivered to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents requested by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent in connection with such change so that Buyer and the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself and the Purchasers, continue to have a first priority, perfected ownership or security interest in the Receivables, the Related Security and any Collections thereon, and (iii) in the case of a change of the jurisdiction of organization, delivered to the Administrative Agent an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as to such organization and the applicable Originator's valid existence

14


and good standing and the perfection and priority of the Buyer's and the Administrative Agent’s ownership or security interest in the Receivables, the Related Security and any Collections thereon.
(b)    Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Such Originator will not add or terminate any bank as a Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, unless Buyer (or its assigns) shall have received, at least ten (10) days before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Bank or a Collection Account or Lock-Box, an executed Collection Account Agreement with respect to the new Collection Account or Lock-Box; provided, however, that such Originator may make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to another existing Collection Account.
(c)    Modifications to Contracts, Invoices and Credit and Collection Policy. Such Originator will not amend, modify or otherwise make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy or any Contract or Invoice that could adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables. Except as otherwise permitted in its capacity as Servicer pursuant to Article VIII of the Purchase Agreement, LKQ will not extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any Invoice related thereto other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, other than with the prior written consent of the Buyer (and its assigns) in compliance with the notification requirements in Section 4.1(a)(vii).
(d)    Sales, Liens. Such Originator will not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon (including, without limitation, the filing of any financing statement) or with respect to, any Receivable, Related Security or Collections, or upon or with respect to any Contract or Invoice under which any Receivable arises, or any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in each case, the creation of the interests therein in favor of Buyer provided for herein), and such Originators will defend the right, title and interest of Buyer in, to and under any of the foregoing property, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under such Originator.
(e)    No Adverse Selection. To the extent that such Originator has retained Receivables that would be Eligible Receivables but which have not been transferred to Buyer hereunder, such Originator will not select those Receivables to be transferred hereunder in any manner that materially adversely affects Buyer.
(f)    Accounting for Purchase. Such Originator will not, and will not permit any Affiliate to, account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise) the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than the sale of its Receivables and the Related Security by such Originator to Buyer or in any other respect account for or treat the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than as a sale of such Receivables and the Related Security by such Originator to Buyer except to the extent that such transactions are not recognized on account of consolidated financial reporting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

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