CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT, dated as of November 15, 2001 is entered into by and among:

(a) LP Receivables Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”),

(b) Louisiana-Pacific Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Louisiana-Pacific”), as initial Master Servicer (Louisiana-Pacific together with Borrower, the “Loan Parties” and each, a “Loan Party”),

(d) the financial institutions identified on the signature pages of this Agreement as “Committed Banks” (together with their successors and assigns, the “Committed Banks”), and

(e) Wachovia Bank, N.A., as administrative agent for Blue Ridge, the Committed Banks and their respective assigns under the Transaction Documents and under the Liquidity Agreement (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Borrower desires to borrow from Blue Ridge and/or the Committed Banks from time to time.

Blue Ridge, either by issuing its Commercial Paper or availing itself of a Liquidity Funding to the extent available, and/or the Committed Banks shall make Advances to Borrower from time to time.

Wachovia Bank, N.A. has been requested and is willing to act as Administrative Agent on behalf of Blue Ridge and the Committed Banks and their respective assigns in accordance with the terms hereof.

Article I

The Advances

Section 1.1 Credit Facility.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof (including, without limitation, Article VI), from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date, Borrower may, at its option, request from the Lender prior to the Blue Ridge Termination Date and/or the Committed Banks prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Advances in an aggregate principal amount at

any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of the Aggregate Commitment and the Borrowing Base (such lesser amount, the “Borrowing Limit”) and the Lender may, or if the Lender shall decline to make such Advance, the Committed Banks shall, make such Advance.

Each of the Advances, and all other Aggregate Unpaids, shall be secured by the Collateral as provided in Article XIII. It is the intent of Blue Ridge to fund all Advances by the issuance of Commercial Paper. If for any reason Blue Ridge is unable, or determines that it is undesirable to issue Commercial Paper to fund or maintain Advances hereunder, or is unable for any reason to repay such Commercial Paper upon the maturity thereof, Blue Ridge will avail itself of a Liquidity Funding, to the extent available. If Blue Ridge funds or refinances any Advances made by it hereunder through a Liquidity Funding or if any Advance is made by the Committed Banks through a Bank Funding, in lieu of paying CP Costs on the Aggregate Principal pursuant to Article III, Borrower shall pay interest thereon at the Alternate Base Rate or the LIBO Rate, selected in accordance with Article IV. Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a commitment of Blue Ridge to issue Commercial Paper.

(b) Borrower may, upon at least 30 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment; provided that each partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $10,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof).

Section 1.2 Increases.

Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Advance (each, a “Borrowing Notice”). Each Borrowing Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested increase in Aggregate Principal (which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $100,000) and the Borrowing Date (which, in the case of any Advance after the initial Advance hereunder, shall occur no more than once per week). Following receipt of a Borrowing Notice, the Administrative Agent will determine whether Blue Ridge will fund the requested Advance through the issuance of Commercial Paper or through Liquidity Funding or whether the requested Advance will be funded by the Committed Banks through a Bank Funding. If the Administrative Agent determines that Blue Ridge will fund the requested Advance through a Liquidity Funding or if the Administrative Agent determines that the Committed Banks will fund the requested Advance through a Bank Funding, Borrower may cancel the Borrowing Notice or, in the absence of such a cancellation, the Advance will be funded through a Liquidity Funding, to the extent available, or a Bank Funding. On the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, Blue Ridge shall deposit to the Facility Account an amount equal to the principal amount of the requested Advance, or if Blue Ridge shall decline to make the Advance, each Committed Bank shall deposit to the Facility Account an amount equal to such Committed Bank’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance.

Section 1.3 Decreases.

Except as provided in Section 1.4, Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with prior written notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period (a “Reduction Notice”) of any

proposed reduction of Aggregate Principal. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (a) the date (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Principal shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and (b) the amount of Aggregate Principal to be reduced which shall be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal, as allocated by the Administrative Agent (giving consideration to the minimization of Broken Funding Costs) (the “Aggregate Reduction”). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be effective during any week.

Section 1.4 Deemed Collections; Borrowing Limit.

(a) If on any day:

(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced as a result of any defective or rejected goods or

services, any cash discount or any other adjustment by any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, or as a result of any tariff or other governmental or regulatory action, or

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

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

(iv) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Monthly Report (for any reason other than such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable or payment in full of the entire Outstanding Balance being made on such Receivable), or

(v) any of the representations or warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 5.1(i), (j), (k), (r), (s), (t) or (u) were not true when made with respect to any Receivable,

then, on such day, without duplication, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i)-(iv) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and, effective as of the date on which such Collection is deemed to have been received, the Borrowing Base shall be reduced by the amount of such Deemed Collection.

(b) Borrower shall ensure that the Aggregate Principal at no time exceeds the Borrowing Limit. If on any day the Aggregate Principal exceeds the Borrowing Limit, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent by the close of business on such day, an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal shall be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal, as allocated by the Administrative Agent (giving consideration to the minimization of Broken

Funding Costs) such that after giving effect to such payment the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

Section 1.5 Payment Requirements.

All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Loan Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 noon (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to the Lender or the Committed Banks, they shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account, for the account of the Lender and/or the Committed Banks, as the case may be, until otherwise notified by the Administrative Agent. Upon notice to Borrower, the Administrative Agent may debit the Facility Account for all amounts due and payable hereunder. All computations of CP Costs, Interest, per annum fees calculated as part of any CP Costs, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

Article II

first, to the Lender and each Committed Bank ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid CP Costs, Interest and Broken Funding Costs (if any) that are then due and owing,

On each day on which any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2 are not satisfied, on each Settlement Date on and after the Amortization Date and on each other Business Day on or after the Amortization Date specified by the Administrative Agent, the Master Servicer, at the direction of the Borrower, shall (i) remit to the Administrative Agent’s Account the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence and all funds in the Collection Accounts, and (ii) apply such amounts to reduce the Aggregate Unpaids as follows:

Borrower shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such recission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus Interest on such amount at the Default Rate from the date of any such recission, return or refunding.

Article III

Blue Ridge Funding

Section 3.1 CP Costs.

Borrower shall pay CP Costs with respect to the portion of the Aggregate Principal funded with Commercial Paper. Each Loan of Blue Ridge that is funded substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper will accrue CP Costs each day on a pro rata basis, based upon the percentage share that the principal in respect of such Loan represents in relation to all assets held by Blue Ridge and funded substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper.

Section 3.2 Calculation of CP Costs.

Not later than the third Business Day immediately preceding each Scheduled Monthly Reporting Date, Blue Ridge shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs applicable to its

CP Rate Loans for the Calculation Period then most recently ended and shall notify Borrower of such aggregate amount.

Section 3.3 CP Costs Payments.

On each Scheduled Settlement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Blue Ridge) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the principal associated with all CP Rate Loans for the Calculation Period then most recently ended in accordance with Article II.

Section 3.4 Default Rate.

From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Loans of Blue Ridge shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

Article IV

Bank Fundings and Liquidity Fundings

Section 4.1 Bank Fundings and Liquidity Funding.

Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the portion of the Aggregate Principal funded with a Bank Funding or a Liquidity Funding shall accrue interest for each day during its Interest Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Alternate Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Borrower gives notice to the Administrative Agent of another Interest Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan funded with a Bank Funding or a Liquidity Funding shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable). If any Loan initially funded with Commercial Paper is sold to the Liquidity Banks pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement, each Loan so assigned shall each be deemed to have an Interest Period commencing on the date of any such assignment.

Section 4.2 Interest Payments.

(a) Not later than the third Business Day preceding each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of interest payable with respect to the Loans of the Liquidity Banks and the Committed Banks for the related Interest Period and shall notify Borrower of such aggregate amount.

(b) On the Settlement Date for each Loan that is funded with a Liquidity Funding or a Bank Funding, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Liquidity Banks or the Committed Banks, as the case may be) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Interest for the entire Interest Period of each such Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3 Selection and Continuation of Interest Periods.

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the Administrative Agent, Borrower shall from time to time request Interest Periods for the Bank Fundings and Liquidity Fundings,

provided that if at any time any Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding is outstanding, Borrower shall always request Interest Periods such that at least one Interest Period shall end on the date specified in clause (i) of the definition of Settlement Date.

(b) Borrower or the Administrative Agent, upon notice to and consent by the other received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of an Interest Period (the “Terminating Tranche”) for any Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding into multiple Bank Fundings or Liquidity Fundings, as the case may be, (ii) combine any such Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding with one or more other Bank Fundings or Liquidity Fundings, as the case may be, that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche or (iii) combine any such Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding with a new Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding, as the case may be, to be made by the Committed Banks (with respect to any Bank Funding) or the Liquidity Banks (with respect to any Liquidity Funding) on the day such Terminating Tranche ends.

Section 4.4 Liquidity Bank Interest Rates.

Borrower may select the LIBO Rate (subject to Section 4.5) or the Alternate Base Rate for each Bank Funding and Liquidity Funding. Borrower shall by 12:00 noon (New York time): (a) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate and (b) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Alternate Base Rate is being requested as a new Interest Rate, give the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice of the new Interest Rate for the Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Borrower gives written notice to the Administrative Agent of another Interest Rate, the initial Interest Rate for any Loan transferred to the Liquidity Banks pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement or funded with a Bank Funding shall be the Alternate Base Rate (unless the Default Rate is then applicable).

Section 4.5 Suspension of the LIBO Rate.

(a) If any Committed Bank or Liquidity Bank notifies the Administrative Agent that it has determined that funding its ratable share of the Bank Fundings or Liquidity Fundings, as the case may be, at a LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding, as the case may be, at such LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) such LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding, as the case may be, at such LIBO Rate, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require Borrower to select the Alternate Base Rate for any Bank Funding or Liquidity Funding accruing Interest at such LIBO Rate.

(b) If less than all of the Committed Banks (with respect to any Bank Funding) or all of the Liquidity Banks (with respect to any Liquidity Funding) give a notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Committed Bank or each Liquidity Bank, as the case may be, which gave such a notice shall be obliged, at the request of Borrower, Blue

Ridge or the Administrative Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (i) another Committed Bank or Liquidity Bank, as the case may be, that has not given such notice or (ii) another funding entity nominated by Borrower or the Administrative Agent that is an Eligible Assignee willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such notifying Liquidity Bank, or in the case of a Bank Funding, willing to become a Committed Bank through the Commitment Termination Date for the related Committed Bank; provided that (A) the notifying Committed Bank or Liquidity Bank, as the case may be, receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, of all Aggregate Unpaids owing to it (whether due or accrued), and (B) in the case of a Liquidity Funding, the replacement Liquidity Bank otherwise satisfies the requirements of the Liquidity Agreement.

Section 4.6 Default Rate.

From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Bank Fundings and Liquidity Fundings shall accrue Interest at the Default Rate.

Section 4.7 Replacement of Committed Banks on the Existing Commitment Termination Date; Advance Account Deposit.

(a) With respect to any Committed Bank, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, on the applicable Commitment Termination Date then in effect with respect to such Committed Bank (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”) replace any Non-Renewing Committed Bank with one or more other Committed Banks (which may include any existing Committed Bank, each such Person prior to such existing Commitment Termination Date, an “Additional Committed Bank”) and each such Additional Committed Banks shall have entered into an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Additional Committed Bank shall, effective as of such Existing Commitment Termination Date, undertake a commitment as a Committed Bank to make Advances hereunder (and, if any such Additional Committed Bank is already a Committed Bank, its Commitment shall be increased by the applicable amount on such date). The right of Borrower to replace any such Committed Bank with an Additional Committed Bank shall be subject to the conditions that (i) the Commitment of the Additional Committed Bank (determined as of such existing Commitment Termination Date) shall in no event be less than $7,500,000 and (ii) the Additional Committed Bank shall be an Eligible Assignee. Any Additional Committed Bank who is not an existing Committed Bank shall become an Additional Committed Bank only upon the consent of the Administrative Agent.

(b) If, at any time during the Revolving Period either (i) any Committed Bank has not agreed to extend its Commitment hereunder for an additional 364 day period commencing on such Committed Bank’s Commitment Termination Date and such Committed Bank has not been replaced by an Additional Committed Bank (each such Committed Bank, a “Non-Renewing Committed Bank”), on and after the fifteenth (15th) day preceding such Committed Bank’s Commitment Termination Date to and including such Committed Bank’s Commitment Termination Date, or (ii) a Downgrading Event shall occur with respect to a Committed Bank that has not been replaced (a “Downgraded Committed Bank”), then Borrower may request a deposit (an “Advance Account Deposit”) to be made to an Advance Account by delivering to such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or such Downgraded Committed Bank, as applicable, (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a Notice of Committed Bank Advance in substantially

the form attached hereto as Exhibit XI not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), on the date of such proposed funding of such Advance Account Deposit. Each such Notice of Committed Bank Advance shall specify (A) the aggregate amount of such Advance Account Deposit (which shall equal such Committed Bank’s Commitment minus the Aggregate Principal advanced by it, whether hereunder or pursuant to the Liquidity Agreement) and (B) the requested date of such Advance Account Deposit (which shall be a Business Day). Each such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, shall, by 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such requested date, (1) establish such Person’s Advance Account and (2) deposit the aggregate amount of the Advance Account Deposit to be made on such date by the deposit of such amount in same day funds to such Person’s Advance Account. Each such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, may, in its sole discretion, invest the proceeds and the proceeds of any investments with respect to such Person’s Advance Account Deposit from time to time.

(c) At any and all times prior to the Committed Bank Maturity Date for the Advance Account Deposits, Borrower shall have the right to convert all or any portion of such Advance Account Deposits to a Loan. Whenever Borrower wishes to convert all or any portion of the Advance Account Deposits to a Loan, the Master Servicer, on behalf of Borrower, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall in turn deliver to the applicable Committed Banks, a Notice of Conversion (each, a “Notice of Conversion”) in substantially the form of Exhibit XII hereto by no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date on which the related Advance is requested to be made. Each such Notice of Conversion shall meet the requirements set forth in Section 6.2. Each Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, shall, before 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the proposed date of such conversion, subject to the applicable conditions set forth in Article VI, withdraw from its Advance Account and make available to Borrower its Pro-Rata Share of the aggregate amount requested to be converted into Loans on such date by wire transfer in accordance with written wire transfer instructions provided by Master Servicer, on behalf of Borrower.

(d) From and after the date on which any Advance Account Deposit is made by any Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, and until the earlier of (i) the assignment (with the consent of Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) by such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, of all of its rights pursuant to Section 12.1 and (ii) the Committed Bank Maturity Date, all payments in respect of the Aggregate Principal advanced by such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, (whether or not originally funded from such Person’s Advance Account) shall be made by depositing the related funds into such Advance Account, whereupon such funds shall be deemed to have been converted into a Advance Account Deposit to the extent of the payment of such Aggregate Principal and available for conversion to Advances pursuant to Section 4.7(c). For avoidance of doubt, if a Downgraded Committed Bank becomes a Non-Renewing Committed Bank, the Advance Account Deposit of such Committed Bank shall remain available for Advances pursuant to Section 4.6(c) until the Committed Bank Maturity Date applicable to a Non-Renewing Committed Bank. In addition, if at any time a Committed Bank is both a Non-Renewing Committed Bank and a Downgraded Committed Bank, such Committed Bank is obligated to make only one Advance Account Deposit which shall be in the amount described in Section 4.7(b).

(e) Upon the earlier of (i) the assignment by such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, of all of its rights pursuant to Section 12.1 and (ii) the Committed Bank Maturity Date, all funds then held in the Advance Accounts (after giving effect to any Advances to be made on such date) shall be paid by such Person to its own account, and thereafter all payments in respect of the Aggregate Principal advanced by such Person shall be paid directly to such Person in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition to the foregoing, if the Commitment of such Person is reduced in part pursuant to Section 1.3 or by reason of a partial assignment pursuant to Section 12.1 (with the consent of Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), then, in either such event, such Person shall pay to its own account an amount of funds then held in the Advance Account equal to the amount of such partial reduction. Upon the occurrence of the Committed Bank Maturity Date, all funds in each Advance Account shall be immediately paid to the related Committed Bank.

(f) Each Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, shall pay to its own account on behalf of the applicable party under the definition of Advance Account (the “Advance Account Party”), as interest on any Advance Account Deposit, an amount equal to the amount of all realized interest and/or other income earned from the investment of such Advance Account Deposit pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.7(b) received in connection with the investment of funds on deposit in the Advance Account of such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, such payment to be made on each Settlement Date commencing after the date the relevant Advance Account Deposit was made by such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be, (or more frequently as may be acceptable to the Advance Account Party and such Non-Renewing Committed Bank or Downgraded Committed Bank, as the case may be). No other interest shall be payable to such Committed Bank in respect of such Advance Account Deposit, and neither Borrower nor the Master Servicer, or the Advance Account Party shall have any liability therefore. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither Borrower nor the Master Servicer, or the Advance Account Party shall have any liability for any loss arising from any investment or reinvestment made with funds on deposit in any Advance Account. The parties hereto agree to reasonably cooperate as requested by any such party (including the execution of such documents reasonably requested by such party) in connection with the Advance Deposit Accounts, if any, established pursuant hereto.

(g) After the Commitment Termination Date applicable to a Committed Bank, such Committed Bank shall have no obligation to make Advances hereunder; it being understood and agreed that funds on deposit in such Committed Bank’s Advance Deposit Account shall remain available to fund, on a revolving basis, such Committed Bank’s Pro Rata Share of Advances during the Revolving Period.

Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and Blue Ridge, as to itself, as of the date hereof, as of the date of each Advance and as of each Settlement Date that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Loan Party’s jurisdiction of formation is correctly set forth in the preamble to this Agreement. Such Loan Party is duly organized under the laws of that jurisdiction. Such Loan Party is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of organization. Such Loan Party is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign entity, and has and holds all organizational power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where the failure to so qualify or so hold could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery. The execution and delivery by such Loan Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and, in the case of Borrower, Borrower’s use of the proceeds of Advances made hereunder, are within its corporate powers and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its part. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which such Loan Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party.

(c) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Loan Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party, and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on assets of such Loan Party or its Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder) except, in any case, where such contravention, violation, creation or imposition could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the execution and delivery by such Loan Party of each Transaction Document to which it is a party nor the performance of its obligations thereunder result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on all or any portion of the Collateral; and no transaction contemplated hereby requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(d) Governmental Authorization. Other than the filing of the financing statements required hereunder, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by such Loan Party of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(e) Actions, Suits. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending, or to the best of such Loan Party’s knowledge, threatened, against or affecting such Loan Party, or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other body, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Loan Party is not in default with respect to any order of any court, arbitrator or governmental body, except where such default could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

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

(g) Accuracy of Information. All information heretofore furnished by such Loan Party or any of its Affiliates to the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby is, and all such information hereafter furnished by such Loan Party or any of its Affiliates to the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender will be, true and accurate in every material respect on the date such information is stated or certified and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(h) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any Advance hereunder will be used (i) for a purpose that violates, or would be inconsistent with, (A) Section 7.2(e) or (B) Regulation T, U or X promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System from time to time or (ii) to acquire any security in any transaction which is subject to Section 12, 13 or 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(i) Good Title. Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Receivables, Related Security with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, except as created by the Transaction Documents. There have been duly filed all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect Borrower’s ownership interest in each Receivable, its Collections and the Related Security.

(j) Perfection. This Agreement is effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Collateral to secure payment of the Aggregate Unpaids, free and clear of any Adverse Claim except as created by the Transaction Documents.

Borrower is a duly registered organization under the laws of the State of Delaware and is located for the purposes of Article 9 of the UCC in such state. The initial Master Servicer is a duly registered organization under the laws of the State of Delaware and is located for the purposes of Article 9 of the UCC in such state.

The jurisdiction of formation, principal places of business and chief executive office of such Loan Party and the offices where it keeps all of its Records are located at the address(es) listed on Exhibit III or such other locations of which the Administrative Agent has been notified in accordance with Section 7.2(a) in jurisdictions where all action required by Section 14.3(a) has been taken and completed. Borrower’s Federal Employer Identification Number is correctly set forth on Exhibit III.

(l) Collections. The conditions and requirements set forth in Section 7.1(j) and Section 8.2 have at all times been satisfied and duly performed. The names, addresses and jurisdictions of organization of all Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the Collection Accounts of Borrower at each Collection Bank and the post office box number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Exhibit IV. Borrower has not granted any Person, other than the Administrative Agent as contemplated by this Agreement, dominion and control 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.

(m) Material Adverse Effect. (i) The initial Master Servicer represents and warrants that except as described in Exhibit XV as delivered on the Closing Date or as amended thereafter with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent may be withheld in its sole discretion), since June 30, 2001, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operations of the initial Master Servicer and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the ability of the initial Master Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) Borrower represents and warrants that since the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred that would have a material adverse effect on (A) the financial condition or operations of Borrower, (B) the ability of Borrower to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or (C) the collectibility of the Receivables generally or any material portion of the Receivables.

(n) Names. The name in which Borrower has executed this Agreement is identical to the name of Borrower as indicated on the public record of its state of organization which shows Borrower to have been organized. In the past five (5) years, Borrower has not used any corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement.

(o) Ownership of Borrower. Louisiana-Pacific owns, directly or indirectly, 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Borrower, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. Such capital stock is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of the Borrower.

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

(q) Compliance with Law. Such Loan Party has complied in all respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to

which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 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 such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Such Loan Party has complied in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract except to the extent any such failure to comply could have a Material Adverse Effect, and has not made any change to such Credit and Collection Policy, except such change as to which the Administrative Agent has been notified in accordance with Section 7.1(a)(vii).

(s) Payments to Applicable Originator. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Borrower under the Receivables Sale Agreement, Borrower has given reasonably equivalent value to the applicable Originator in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by any Originator of any Receivable under the Receivables Sale Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq.), as amended.

(t) 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 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).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Net Pool Balance as an Eligible Receivable on the date of any Monthly Report was an Eligible Receivable on the last day of the period to which such Monthly Report relates.

(v) Borrowing Limit. Immediately after giving effect to each Advance and each settlement on any Settlement Date hereunder, the Aggregate Principal is less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit.

(w) Accounting. The manner in which such Loan Party accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement does not adversely affect the status of the transfers of Receivables, Related Security and all proceeds thereof to Borrower pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement as true sales for bankruptcy purposes.

(vi) at all times have a Board of Directors consisting of three members, at least one member of which is an Independent Director;

(vii) observe all corporate formalities as a distinct entity, and ensure that all corporate actions relating to (A) the selection, maintenance or replacement of the Independent Director, (B) the dissolution or liquidation of Borrower or (C) the initiation of, participation in, acquiescence in or consent to any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding involving Borrower, are duly authorized by unanimous vote of its Board of Directors (which shall include the vote of the Independent Director except with respect to clause (A) above);

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

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

(x) except as herein specifically otherwise provided, maintain the funds or other assets of Borrower separate from, and not commingled with, those of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof and only maintain bank accounts or other depository accounts to which Borrower alone is the account party, into which Borrower alone makes deposits and from which Borrower alone (or the Administrative Agent hereunder) has the power to make withdrawals;

(xi) pay all of Borrower’s operating expenses from Borrower’s own assets (except for certain payments by any Originator or other Persons pursuant to allocation arrangements that comply with the requirements of this Section 7.1(i));

(xii) operate its business and activities such that: it does not engage in any business or activity of any kind, or enter into any transaction or indenture, mortgage, instrument, agreement, contract, lease or other undertaking, other than the transactions contemplated and authorized by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement; and does not create, incur, guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any indebtedness or other liabilities, whether direct or contingent, other than (A) as a result of the endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business, (B) the incurrence of obligations under this Agreement, (C) the incurrence of obligations, as expressly contemplated in the Receivables Sale Agreement, to make payment to the applicable Originator thereunder for the purchase of Receivables from such Originator under the Receivables Sale Agreement, and (D) the incurrence of operating expenses in the ordinary course of business of the type otherwise contemplated by this Agreement;

(xiii) maintain its corporate charter in conformity with this Agreement, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws in any respect that would impair its ability to comply with the terms or provisions of any of the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, Section 7.1(i) of this Agreement;

(xiv) maintain the effectiveness of, and continue to perform under the Receivables Sale Agreement and the Performance Undertaking, such that it does not amend, restate, supplement, cancel, terminate or otherwise modify the Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance Undertaking, or give any consent, waiver, directive or approval thereunder or waive any default, action, omission or breach under the

Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance Undertaking or otherwise grant any indulgence thereunder, without (in each case) the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent;

(xv) maintain its corporate separateness such that it does not merge or consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions, and except as otherwise contemplated herein) all or substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) to, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, any Person, nor at any time create, have, acquire, maintain or hold any interest in any Subsidiary.

(xvi) maintain at all times the Required Capital Amount (as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement) and refrain from making any dividend, distribution, redemption of capital stock or payment of any subordinated indebtedness which would cause the Required Capital Amount to cease to be so maintained;

(xvii) maintain and cause the Master Servicer and any Subservicer to maintain books and records which contain such information from time to time as may be necessary for determination as of any particular date (after due allowance of time needed for reconciliation of book and record entries reflecting transactions on such date) of the amounts of the Receivables purchased from the respective Originators that actually came into existence on such date and the corresponding amounts of Purchase Price (as defined in the Sale Agreement) paid respectively to such Originators on such date pursuant to Sections 1.3(d) and 1.5 of the Sale Agreement and amounts applied on such date in payment or prepayment of obligations under the Subordinated Note.

(xviii) take such other actions as are necessary on its part to ensure that the facts and assumptions set forth in the opinions issued by Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison LLP as counsel for Borrower, in connection with the closing or initial Advance under this Agreement and relating to true sale and substantive consolidation issues, and in the certificates and the Separateness Agreement accompanying such opinions, remain true and correct, and are complied with, in all material respects at all times.

(j) Collections. Such Loan Party will cause (i) all proceeds from all Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a Collection Account and (ii) each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect. In the event any payments relating to the Collateral are remitted directly to Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, Borrower will itself hold or, if applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and the Lender. Borrower will maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and control (subject to the terms of this Agreement) of each Lock-Box and Collection Account and shall not grant the right to take dominion and control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to the Administrative Agent as contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Loan Party will not, and will not permit any Originator to, make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy that could adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables.

Article VIII

Administration and Collection

Section 8.1 Designation of Master Servicer.

(a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the “Master Servicer”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 8.1. Louisiana-Pacific is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent may at any time after the occurrence of an LP Downgrade Event designate as Master Servicer any Person to succeed Louisiana-Pacific or any successor Master Servicer provided that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied. In addition, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, Borrower may at any time designate any Person to succeed Louisiana-Pacific or any successor Master Servicer provided that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

(b) Louisiana-Pacific may delegate, and Louisiana-Pacific hereby advises the Lender, the Committed Banks and the Administrative Agent that it has delegated, to the other Originators, as sub-Master Servicers of the Master Servicer (each a “Subservicer”), certain of its duties and responsibilities as Master Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such other Originator. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, Louisiana-Pacific shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Master Servicer to any Person other than (i) Borrower, (ii) the other Originators, and (iii) with respect to Defaulted Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Neither Borrower nor any Subservicer shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Master Servicer delegated to it by Louisiana-Pacific. If at any time pursuant to the terms hereof the Administrative Agent or the Borrower pursuant to the foregoing subsection (a) shall designate as Master Servicer any Person other than Louisiana-Pacific, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by Louisiana-Pacific to Borrower or any Subservicer may, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Administrative Agent to Louisiana-Pacific and to Borrower and each Subservicer; provided, however, upon the revocation of the power of the Master Servicer, each Subservicer’s power to act hereunder shall be automatically revoked.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b) as long as Louisiana-Pacific or an Affiliate of Louisiana-Pacific is Master Servicer hereunder: (i) Louisiana-Pacific shall be and remain primarily liable to the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and the Lender for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of the Master Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and the Lender shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Louisiana-Pacific in matters relating to the discharge by the Master Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. So long as Louisiana-Pacific is the Master Servicer, none of Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender shall be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Louisiana-Pacific in order for communication to the Master Servicer and its Subservicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. Louisiana-Pacific, at all times that it is the Master

Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any Subservicer or other delegate of the Master Servicer with any notice given to the Master Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Duties of Master Servicer.

(a) The Master Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

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

(c) The Master Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Master Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Borrower, the Committed Banks and the Lender their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Master Servicer shall, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Master Servicer or Borrower prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Master Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Administrative Agent such allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for the Lender and the Committed Banks on the first Business Day following receipt by the Master Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor any Subservicer shall have any disbursement or other authority in respect of the Collection Accounts except in accordance with the Collection Account Agreements and the specific or standing authorizations from time to time given by the Administrative Agent or Authorized Officers of the Borrower and in effect.

(d) The Master Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Master Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a

Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Agent shall, after the occurrence of an Incipient Event, have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Master Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) The Master Servicer shall hold in trust for Borrower and the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Administrative Agent, deliver or make available to the Administrative Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Administrative Agent. The Master Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Borrower any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness not constituting Receivables. The Master Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the Administrative Agent, furnish to the Administrative Agent (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Committed Banks and the Lender pursuant to Article II.

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to Originator or Borrower shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

Section 8.3 Collection Notices.

The Administrative Agent is authorized at any time to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. Borrower hereby transfers to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, effective when the Administrative Agent delivers such notice, the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-Box and the Collection Accounts. In case any authorized signatory of Borrower whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (a) at any time after delivery of the Collection Notices, to endorse Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (b) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security, and (c) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Administrative Agent rather than Borrower.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Borrower.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and the Lender of their rights hereunder shall not release the

Master Servicer, any Originator or Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lender nor the Committed Banks shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower.

Section 8.5 Monthly Reports.

The Master Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Administrative Agent (a) on each Monthly Reporting Date, a Monthly Report and an electronic file of the data contained therein and (b) at such times as the Administrative Agent shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables; provided, however that the Master Servicer shall deliver a Monthly Report more frequently than monthly upon the request of the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fee.

As compensation for the Master Servicer’s servicing activities on its behalf, including the Master Servicer’s undertaking of the indemnification obligations provided for in Section 5 and Section 11 of the Multi-Party Agreement Relating To Lockbox Services, dated as of November 15, 2001 among the Borrower, the Master Servicer, the Administrative Agent and Bank of America, N.A. or any other Collection Account Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to pay the Master Servicer the Servicing Fee, which fee shall be paid in arrears on each Scheduled Settlement Date out of Collections. No Subservicer shall be entitled to receive any Servicing Fee provided for herein, but shall be entitled to receive a monthly fee for each Calculation Period in respect of its duties as Subservicer solely from the Master Servicer in an amount agreed to by such Subservicer and the Master Servicer.

Article X

Indemnification

Section 10.1 Indemnities by the Loan Parties.

Without limiting any other rights that the Administrative Agent, the Lender or any Committed Bank may have hereunder or under applicable law, (a) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) the Administrative Agent, the Lender, each of the Committed Banks, each of the Liquidity Banks and each of the respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, taxes, liabilities, costs, expenses and for all other amounts payable, including attorneys’ fees (which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender) and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of this Agreement or the acquisition, either directly or

indirectly, by the Lender, any Committed Bank or any Liquidity Bank of an interest in the Receivables, and (b) the Master Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of the Master Servicer’s activities as Master Servicer hereunder excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances under the preceding clauses (a) and (b):

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

(ii) Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses in respect of Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor; or

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

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of any Loan Party or limit the recourse of any Committed Bank or the Lender to any Loan Party for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by such Loan Party under the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Committed Bank and the Lender for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to Borrower or the Master Servicer) relating to or resulting from:

(c) any representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any Originator (or any officers of any such Person) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect when made or deemed made;

(d) the failure by Borrower, the Master Servicer or any Originator to comply with any applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivable or Contract related thereto, or the nonconformity of any Receivable or Contract related thereto included therein with any such applicable law, rule or regulation or any failure of any Originator to keep or perform any of its obligations, express or implied, with respect to any Contract;

(e) any failure of Borrower, the Master Servicer or any Originator to perform its duties, covenants or other obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(f) any products liability, personal injury or damage suit, or other similar claim arising out of or in connection with merchandise, insurance or services that are the subject of any Contract or any Receivable;

(g) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the merchandise or service related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services;

(h) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(i) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of any Advance, the Collateral or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to Borrower, the Master Servicer or any Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(j) any inability to litigate any claim against any Obligor in respect of any Receivable as a result of such Obligor being immune from civil and commercial law and suit on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action, suit or proceeding;

(k) any Amortization Event;

(m) any failure to vest and maintain vested in the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or to transfer to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid first priority perfected security interests in the Collateral, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (except as created by the Transaction Documents);

(n) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents with respect to any Originator or any Loan Party under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to any Collateral, and the proceeds thereof, whether at the time of any Advance or at any subsequent time;

(o) any action or omission by any Loan Party which reduces or impairs the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender with respect to any Collateral or the value of any Collateral;

(p) any attempt by any Person to void any Advance or the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action; and

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

Section 10.2 Defense of Claims.

(a) An Indemnified Party shall, after obtaining actual knowledge, thereof, promptly notify Borrower in writing of any action, suit or proceeding brought against such Indemnified Party which could give rise to any payment by Borrower or the Master Servicer under Section 10.1 (a “Claim”) as to which indemnification is sought (unless Borrower or Master Servicer theretofore has notified such Indemnified Party of such Claim); except that the failure to give such notice shall not release Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, from any of its obligations under this Agreement, however Borrower’s or the Master Servicer’s, as the case may be, obligations shall be reduced to the extent that failure to promptly give notice of any action, suit or proceeding against such Indemnified Party (i) impairs Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, from defending such Claim or (ii) increases the amount for which Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, is liable in accordance with Section 10.1. Within forty-five days after receiving notice from an Indemnified Party of any Claim as to which indemnification is sought, Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, if is so desires may elect in writing, subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, to control, at its sole cost and expense, and to assume full responsibility for, the defense of such Claim with counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Parties in their reasonable discretion; provided, that the Borrower has agreed in writing on or prior to the assumption of such defense to indemnify such Indemnified Party for such Claim. If Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, elects to assume the defense of such Claim, it shall keep the Indemnified Party which is the subject of such proceeding fully apprised of the status of the proceeding and shall provide such Indemnified Party with all information with respect to such proceeding as such Indemnified Party may reasonably request. If Borrower or Master Servicer, as the case may be, does not elect to assume control, as provided for above, and provided it is not preventing from assuming such control pursuant to the provisions of clause (b) below, the applicable Indemnified Party shall, at the expense of Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, supply Borrower with all such information and documents reasonably requested by Borrower or Master Servicer, as the case may be.

(b) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of such Claim if in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnified Party, (i) there exists an actual or potential conflict of interest, such that such Indemnified Party determines that it is desirable to retain control of such proceeding (ii) such Claim involves the risk of criminal liability to such Indemnified Party or (iii) the control of such Claim would involve a conflict of interest. In the circumstances described above, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control and assume responsibility for the defense of such claim or liability, subject to Section 10.1, at the expense of Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be.

(c) No Indemnified Party shall settle any Claim without the prior written consent of Borrower or the Master Servicer, as the case may be (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Committed Bank or the Lender in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy.

If the written confirmation differs from the action taken by the Administrative Agent, the records of the Administrative Agent shall govern absent manifest error.

Section 14.3 Protection of Administrative Agent’s Security Interest.

(a) Borrower agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may be necessary or

desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, or to enable the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks or the Lender to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder. At any time, the Administrative Agent may, or the Administrative Agent may direct Borrower or the Master Servicer to, notify the Obligors of Receivables, at Borrower’s expense, of the security interests of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Loan Party hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks, the Liquidity Banks or Blue Ridge by each other, (ii) by the Administrative Agent, any Committed Bank or the Lender to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them who executes a confidentiality agreement for the benefit of the applicable Loan Party on terms comparable to those required of the Administrative Agent, the Lender and any Committed Bank hereunder with respect to such disclosed information, (iii) by the Administrative Agent to any rating agency, Commercial Paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to Blue Ridge or any entity organized for the purpose of purchasing, or making loans secured by, financial assets for which Wachovia acts as the administrative agent and (iv) to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, provided that each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information and in the case of any Person referred to in clause (iii), the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to cause each such Person to agree to keep such information confidential. In addition, the Committed Banks, the Lender and the Administrative Agent may disclose any such nonpublic information with respect to any Loan Party to the extent required pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings with competent jurisdiction (whether or not having the force or effect of law).

Section 14.5 Bankruptcy Petition.

Borrower, the Master Servicer, the Administrative Agent, each Committed Bank and each Liquidity Bank hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Blue Ridge any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

Section 14.7 CHOICE OF LAW.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COMMITTED BANKS OR THE LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

Should LP Wood default in the payment or performance of any of its Guaranteed Obligations, Recipient (or its assigns) may cause the immediate performance by Performance Guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations and cause any payment Guaranteed Obligations to become forthwith due and payable to Recipient (or its assigns), without demand or notice of any nature (other than as expressly provided herein), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Performance Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Undertaking is not a guarantee of the collection of any of the Receivables and Performance Guarantor shall not be responsible for any Guaranteed Obligations to the extent the failure to perform such Guaranteed Obligations by LP Wood results from Receivables being uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor; provided that nothing herein shall relieve LP Wood from performing in full its Guaranteed Obligations under the Agreements or Performance Guarantor of its undertaking hereunder with respect to the full performance of such duties.

Section 3. Performance Guarantor’s Further Agreements to Pay. Performance Guarantor further agrees, as the principal obligor and not as a guarantor only, to pay to Recipient (and its assigns), forthwith upon demand in funds immediately available to Recipient, all costs and expenses (including court costs and legal expenses) incurred or expended by Recipient in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, this Undertaking and the enforcement thereof, together with interest on amounts recoverable under this Undertaking from the time when such amounts become due until payment, at a rate of interest (computed for the actual number of days elapsed based on a 360 day year) equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum, such rate of interest changing when and as the Prime Rate changes.

Section 4. Waivers by Performance Guarantor. Performance Guarantor waives notice of acceptance of this Undertaking, notice of any action taken or omitted by Recipient (or its assigns) in reliance on this Undertaking, and any requirement that Recipient (or its assigns) be diligent or prompt in making demands under this Undertaking, giving notice of any Termination Event, Amortization Event, other default or omission by LP Wood or asserting any other rights of Recipient under this Undertaking. Performance Guarantor warrants that it has adequate means to obtain from LP Wood, on a continuing basis, information concerning the financial condition of LP Wood, and that it is not relying on Recipient to provide such information, now or in the future. Performance Guarantor also irrevocably waives all defenses (i) that at any time may be available in respect of the Aggregate Unpaids by virtue of any statute of limitations, valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or (ii) that arise under the law of suretyship, including impairment of collateral. Recipient (and its assigns) shall be at liberty, without giving notice to or obtaining the assent of Performance Guarantor and without relieving Performance Guarantor of any liability under this Undertaking, to deal with LP Wood and with each other party who now is or after the date hereof becomes liable in any manner for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, in such manner as Recipient in its sole discretion deems fit, and to this end Performance Guarantor agrees that the validity and enforceability of this Undertaking, including without limitation, the provisions of Section 7, shall not be impaired or affected by any of the following: (a) any extension, modification or renewal of, or indulgence with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto at any time; (b) any failure or omission to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (c) any waiver of any right, power or remedy or of any Termination Event, Amortization Event, or default with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto; (d) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any other obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (e) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (f) the application of payments received from any source to the payment of any payment obligations of LP Wood or any part thereof or amounts which are not covered by this Undertaking even though Recipient (or its assigns) might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to any part or all of the payment obligations of LP Wood or to amounts which are not covered by this Undertaking; (g) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which Performance Guarantor may have at any time against LP Wood in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction; (h) any assignment or transfer of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; or (i) any failure on the part of LP Wood to perform or comply with any term of the Agreements or any other document executed in connection therewith or delivered thereunder, all whether or not Performance Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any act or omission referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (i) of this Section 4.

Section 5. Unenforceability of Guaranteed Obligations Against LP Wood. Notwithstanding (a) any change of ownership of LP Wood or the insolvency, bankruptcy or any other change in the legal status of LP Wood; (b) the change in or the imposition of any law, decree, regulation or other governmental act which does or might impair, delay or in any way affect the validity, enforceability or the payment when due of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) the

X-3

failure of LP Wood or Performance Guarantor to maintain in full force, validity or effect or to obtain or renew when required all governmental and other approvals, licenses or consents required in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or this Undertaking, or to take any other action required in connection with the performance of all obligations pursuant to the Guaranteed Obligations or this Undertaking; or (d) if any of the moneys included in the Guaranteed Obligations have become irrecoverable from LP Wood for any other reason other than final payment in full of the payment obligations of LP Wood in accordance with their terms, this Undertaking shall nevertheless be binding on Performance Guarantor. This Undertaking shall be in addition to any other guaranty or other security for the Guaranteed Obligations, and it shall not be rendered unenforceable by the invalidity of any such other guaranty or security. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of LP Wood or for any other reason with respect to LP Wood, all such amounts then due and owing with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations under the terms of the Agreements, or any other agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, shall be immediately due and payable by Performance Guarantor.

Section 6. Representations and Warranties. Performance Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Recipient that:

(a) Existence and Standing. Performance Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation. Performance Guarantor is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, and has and holds all corporate power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except where the failure to so qualify or so hold could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Authorization, Execution and Delivery; Binding Effect. The execution and delivery by Performance Guarantor of this Undertaking, and the performance of its obligations hereunder, are within its corporate powers and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on its part. This Undertaking has been duly executed and delivered by Performance Guarantor. This Undertaking constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Performance Guarantor enforceable against Performance Guarantor 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).

(c) No Conflict; Government Consent. The execution and delivery by Performance Guarantor of this Undertaking, and the performance of its obligations hereunder do not contravene or violate (i) its certificate or articles of incorporation or by-laws, (ii) any law, rule or regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to which it is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim on assets of Performance Guarantor or its

X-4

Subsidiaries (except as created hereunder) except, in any case, where such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Financial Statements. The consolidated financial statements of Performance Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries dated as of December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2001 heretofore delivered to Recipient have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Performance Guarantor and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for the periods ended on such dates. Since the later of (i) June 30, 2001 and (ii) the last time this representation was made or deemed made, no event has occurred which would or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Taxes. Performance Guarantor has filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by Performance Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided. The United States income tax returns of Performance Guarantor have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service through the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. No federal or state tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of Performance Guarantor in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

(f) Litigation and Contingent Obligations. Except as disclosed in the filings made by Performance Guarantor with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of Performance Guarantor’s knowledge threatened against or affecting Performance Guarantor or any of its properties, in or before any court, arbitrator or other body, that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i) the business, properties, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of Performance Guarantor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, (ii) the ability of Performance Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Undertaking, or (iii) the validity or enforceability of any of this Undertaking or the rights or remedies of Recipient hereunder. Performance Guarantor does not have any material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 6(d).

Section 7. Subrogation; Subordination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full Performance Guarantor: (a) will not enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation to any of the rights of Recipient, the Administrative Agent, any Committed Bank or the Lender against LP Wood, (b) hereby waives all rights of subrogation (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, at law or in equity or otherwise) to the claims of Recipient, the Administrative Agent, the Committed Banks and the Lender against LP Wood and all contractual, statutory or legal or equitable rights of contribution, reimbursement, indemnification and similar rights and “claims” (as that term is defined in the United States Bankruptcy Code) which Performance Guarantor might now have or hereafter acquire against LP Wood that arise from the existence or performance of Performance Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (c) will not claim any setoff, recoupment or counterclaim against LP Wood in respect of any liability of Performance

X-5

Guarantor to LP Wood and (d) waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any collateral security which may be held by Recipient, the Administrative Agent, any Committed Bank or the Lender. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any indebtedness of LP Wood now or hereafter owed to Performance Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations. Performance Guarantor agrees that, after the occurrence of any default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Performance Guarantor will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness of LP Wood to Performance Guarantor until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, Performance Guarantor shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness while any Obligations are still unperformed or outstanding, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by Performance Guarantor as trustee for Recipient (and its assigns) and be paid over to Recipient (or its assigns) on account of the Guaranteed Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of Performance Guarantor under the other provisions of this Undertaking. The provisions of this Section 7 shall be supplemental to and not in derogation of any rights and remedies of Recipient under any separate subordination agreement which Recipient may at any time and from time to time enter into with Performance Guarantor.

Section 8. Termination of Performance Undertaking. Performance Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall continue in full force and effect until all Obligations are finally paid and satisfied in full and the Credit and Security Agreement is terminated, provided that this Undertaking shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment or other satisfaction of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of LP Wood or otherwise, as though such payment had not been made or other satisfaction occurred, whether or not Recipient (or its assigns) is in possession of this Undertaking. No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability by reason of the federal bankruptcy code or any insolvency or other similar law, or any law or order of any government or agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend or otherwise affect the Guaranteed Obligations shall impair, affect, be a defense to or claim against the obligations of Performance Guarantor under this Undertaking.

Section 9. Effect of Bankruptcy. This Performance Undertaking shall survive the insolvency of LP Wood and the commencement of any case or proceeding by or against LP Wood under the federal bankruptcy code or other federal, state or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statutes. No automatic stay under the federal bankruptcy code with respect to LP Wood or other federal, state or other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statutes to which LP Wood is subject shall postpone the obligations of Performance Guarantor under this Undertaking.

Section 10. Setoff. Regardless of the other means of obtaining payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Recipient (and its assigns) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to Performance Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by Performance Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any deposits and other sums against the obligations of Performance Guarantor under this Undertaking, whether or not Recipient (or any such assign) shall have made any demand under this Undertaking and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured.

X-6

Section 11. Taxes. All payments to be made by Performance Guarantor hereunder shall be made free and clear of any deduction or withholding. If Performance Guarantor is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of tax or otherwise from any such payment, the sum due from it in respect of such payment shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such deduction or withholding, Recipient receive a net sum equal to the sum which they would have received had no deduction or withholding been made.

Section 12. Further Assurances. Performance Guarantor agrees that it will from time to time, at the request of Recipient (or its assigns), provide information relating to the business and affairs of Performance Guarantor as Recipient may reasonably request. Performance Guarantor also agrees to do all such things and execute all such documents as Recipient (or its assigns) may reasonably consider necessary or desirable to give full effect to this Undertaking and to perfect and preserve the rights and powers of Recipient hereunder.

Section 13. Successors and Assigns. This Performance Undertaking shall be binding upon Performance Guarantor, its successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Recipient and its successors and assigns. Performance Guarantor may not assign or transfer any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of Recipient and the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, Recipient may assign or otherwise transfer the Agreements, any other documents executed in connection therewith or delivered thereunder or any other agreement or note held by them evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, or sell participations in any interest therein, to any other entity or other person, and such other entity or other person shall thereupon become vested, to the extent set forth in the agreement evidencing such assignment, transfer or participation, with all the rights in respect thereof granted to the Recipient herein. The Secured Parties are made express third party beneficiaries of this Undertaking and may exercise the rights of Recipient under Section 2 and 3 from time to time.

Section 14. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Undertaking nor consent to any departure by Performance Guarantor therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Recipient, the Administrative Agent and Performance Guarantor. No failure on the part of Recipient to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 15. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be addressed as follows: if to Performance Guarantor, at the address set forth beneath its signature hereto, and if to Recipient, at the addresses set forth beneath its signature hereto, or at such other addresses as each of Performance Guarantor or any Recipient may designate in writing to the other. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (1) if given by telecopy, upon the receipt thereof, (2) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid or (3) if given by any other means, when received at the address specified in this Section 15.

X-7

Section 16. GOVERNING LAW. THIS UNDERTAKING SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS (AND NOT THE LAW OF CONFLICTS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 17. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF PERFORMANCE GUARANTOR AND RECIPIENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS UNDERTAKING, THE AGREEMENTS OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH OR DELIVERED THEREUNDER AND EACH OF THE PERFORMANCE GUARANTOR AND RECIPIENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

Section 18. Bankruptcy Petition. Performance Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior Indebtedness of Blue Ridge, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, Blue Ridge any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other similar proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state of the United States.

Section 19. Miscellaneous. This Undertaking constitutes the entire agreement of Performance Guarantor with respect to the matters set forth herein. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or any other agreement, and this Undertaking shall be in addition to any other guaranty of or collateral security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The provisions of this Undertaking are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of Performance Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of Performance Guarantor’s liability under this Undertaking, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Undertaking to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by Performance Guarantor or Recipient, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding. Any provisions of this Undertaking which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Unless otherwise specified, references herein to “Section” shall mean a reference to sections of this Undertaking.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Performance Guarantor has caused this Undertaking to be executed and delivered as of the date first above written.
