NFC in turn agrees, to the extent that it is able to finance such purchases, to purchase such Retail Contracts, Leases and Wholesale Contracts except those, if any, as to which the risk of loss or, in the case of Leases, the residual value is unacceptable to NFC.

2. The obligation on ITEC under this Article II to offer to sell Retail Contracts or Leases shall not be deemed violated if any Retail Contract is offered or sold by ITEC without any recourse to a person other than NFC:

a. After the obligor under the Retail Contract or Lease has in good faith and for purposes of his own, requested the sale of the Retail Contract or Lease by ITEC to such other person, or

b. If the Retail Contract or Lease shall be on terms which would be unacceptable to ITEC if it were not able to offer and sell such Retail Contract or Lease to such other person.

3. ITEC shall sell, transfer, assign, and otherwise convey to NFC without recourse (but without limitations of its obligations in this Agreement), all the right, title and interest of ITEC in and to the Wholesale Contracts, Retail Contracts, and Leases and any proceeds related thereto, including the security interests in the Equipment financed thereunder granted by the related obligors pursuant to the Wholesale Contracts, Retail Contracts and Leases, benefits of any lease assignments, liquidation proceeds, proceeds from any insurance policy, proceeds from any Dealer, and proceeds from any commercial and personal guaranties of an obligor’s performance, with respect to the Wholesale Contracts, Retail Contracts and Leases, and such other items as shall be specified in this Agreement.

For purposes of such grant, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code.

NFC shall have no obligation to credit such unpaid amount unless and until ITEC shall remit the amount of such price reduction to NFC. If a Dealer remits payment of a Wholesale Contract to NFC net of a discount which the Dealer claims to have earned under ITEC’s sales promotion programs, ITEC shall pay to NFC the amount of the claimed discount on the next Business Day, or at some other time as the parties agree, after NFC determines such Dealer claim has been made.

5. Settlements between ITEC and NFC shall be made as set forth in subparagraphs a. through g. of this paragraph 5.

a. Payments by NFC to ITEC for Wholesale Contracts acquired by NFC from ITEC hereunder shall be made daily to a bank account designated by ITEC on the Business Day following the day such Wholesale Contracts are acquired by NFC, each such daily payment to be in the amount actually due for such Wholesale Contracts acquired by NFC on the preceding Business Day, except (i) NFC may estimate the amount due if actual data is unavailable.

2.

B.	ITEC Resale of Dealer Repossessions

VI.

Reserve for Excessive ITEC Price Allowances to Dealers and Discontinued Model Allowances

No amendment to this Article VI which is adverse to NFC may be made except in conformance with the terms and conditions of the Revolver.

A.	Excessive Price Allowances

1. NFC will establish a “Reserve” at the end of each month. The amount of the Reserve will depend on the extent to which Retail Sales Allowances actually paid with respect to New International Products during the 12-month period ending on the last day of the preceding month, expressed as a percentage (the “Actual Percentage”) of the dealer net prices of all New International Products sold at retail during the same 12-month period, exceed 5.5% (the “Permitted Percentage”). The amount, if any, by which the Actual Percentage exceeds the Permitted Percentage at any month end is referred to herein as the “Excess Discount”.

2. At the end of each month, ITEC will determine the Actual Percentage and the Excess Discount, if any, for the 12-month period ending on the last day of the preceding month. If there is an Excess Discount, NFC will fund the Reserve by deducting an amount from the settlement payment that NFC would otherwise pay to ITEC on account of Wholesale Contracts financed by NFC during such month with respect to New International Products (notwithstanding any previous agreement regarding NFC’s purchase of such Wholesale Contracts to the contrary. The amount so deducted from such settlement shall be equal to the product of multiplying i) the balances of all Wholesale Contracts acquired by NFC during such month with respect to New International Products by ii) the Actual Percentage for such month. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event with the amount so deducted from such settlement be greater than the amount which, when added to the Reserve, will cause the Reserve to equal the product of multiplying x) the unpaid balances of all Wholesale Contracts owned or serviced by NFC at the end of such month with respect to New International Products by y) the Excess Discount.

3. If, at the end of any month, the amount of the Reserve exceeds the result of multiplying x) and y) in the preceding paragraph, NFC will release the amount of such excess from the Reserve and pay it to ITEC as part of the Current Account Statement on the next Current Account Settlement Date.

B.	Discontinued Models

If ITEC institutes any discontinued model program whereby allowances are payable to Dealers whether or not retail sales are made, ITEC will bear the cost of such program by making payment to NFC (on the next Business Day after the amount of such allowances can reasonably be determined) of the full amount of all such Dealer allowances with respect to New International Products underlying Wholesale Contracts financed by NFC (including Wholesale Contracts financed by NFC (including Wholesale Contracts sold by NFC to the extent that the purchasers thereof have or will have a right to recover all or any part of the amount of such allowances from NFC or by charging a reserve or hold back in which NFC has an interest either direct or indirect, or by charging against NFC’s servicing fees).

ITEC will pay the amount of the negotiated price to NFC when the repurchase is accounted for and NFC will credit the Wholesale Contract balance for such amount. The difference between the negotiated price and the Wholesale Contract balance will also be paid by ITEC to NFC when the repurchase is accounted for and will remain open on the Dealer’s note and inventory statement (coded chargeback) and will be carried as an ITEC asset. NFC will make all reasonable efforts, exclusive of litigation, to collect the remaining Wholesale Contract balance from the Dealer.

Model Changeover and Discontinued Models Used for Demonstration or Rental —As to model changeover and discontinued models used for demonstration or rental ITEC will repurchase such New International Products from the Dealer at a negotiated price. ITEC will pay the amount of the negotiated price to NFC when the repurchase is accounted for and NFC will credit the Wholesale Contract balance for such amount. The difference between the negotiated price and the Wholesale Contract balance will also be paid by ITEC to NFC when the repurchase is accounted for and will remain open on the Dealer’s note and inventory statement (coded chargeback) and will be carried as an ITEC asset.

B. ITEC has and in the future may offer computer and communication equipment and software programs to Dealers and NFC may finance the acquisition thereof.
