Section 2.01.    Purchase.

(a)    By execution of this Agreement, HRAC does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Company (collectively, the “Conveyance”), without recourse except as provided herein, all its right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables existing at the close of business on the Closing Date, in the case of Receivables whether now existing or hereafter created and owned by HRAC arising in the Initial Accounts, on each Additional Account Cut-Off Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts, and on each Creation Date, in the case of Receivables arising in the Automatic Additional Accounts, and in each case thereafter created from time to time until the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII hereof, all Collections with respect to such Accounts, all other monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, (including all Finance Charges, Recoveries and Interchange, if any) and all proceeds (including, without limitation, Insurance Proceeds and “proceeds” as defined in the UCC) thereof (the “Purchased Assets”).

(b)    In connection with such Conveyance, HRAC agrees, acting directly, or through agents, (i) to record and file, at its own expense, any financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Receivables existing at the close of business on the Closing Date and thereafter created in the Initial Accounts and existing as of the Additional Account Cut-Off Date and thereafter created in the Additional Accounts, meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain perfection of, the Conveyance of such Receivables and other Purchased Assets from HRAC to the Company, (ii) that such financing statements shall name HRAC, as seller, and the Company, as purchaser, of the Receivables and (iii) to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or other evidence of such filings (excluding such continuation statements, which shall be delivered as filed) to the Company as soon as is practicable after filing.

(c)    In connection with each such Conveyance, HRAC further agrees, acting directly, or through agents, that it will, at its own expense, (i) on or prior to (A) the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Accounts, (B) the applicable Additional Account Closing Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, and (C) the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, indicate in its computer files that, in the case of the Initial Accounts, the Additional Accounts or Automatic Additional Accounts, Receivables created in connection with such Accounts have been conveyed to the Company in accordance with this Agreement and, as applicable, have been conveyed by the Company to the Trust pursuant to the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement by including (or deleting, in the case of newly originated Receivables in Removed Accounts) in such computer files the code that identifies each such Account and (ii) on or prior to (A) the date that is five Business Days after the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, (B) the date that is five Business Days after the applicable Additional Account Closing Date, in the case of designation of Additional Accounts, (C) the applicable date as set forth in Subsection 2.1 of the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement, in the case of Automatic Additional Accounts and (D) the date that is five Business Days after the applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, to deliver to the Company a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete list of all such Accounts specifying for each such Account, as of the Closing Date, in the case of the Initial Accounts, the applicable Additional Account Cut-Off Date, in the case of Additional Accounts, the applicable date, in the case of Automatic Additional Accounts, and the

5

applicable Removal Date, in the case of Removed Accounts, (1) its account number, (2) the aggregate amount outstanding in such Account and (3) the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in such Account. Each such computer file or microfiche list, as supplemented from time to time to reflect Additional Accounts or Removed Accounts, shall be marked as Schedule I to this Agreement, shall be delivered to the Company in the same manner as the Transferor is required to deliver similar schedules under the terms of the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. HRAC further agrees not to alter the code referenced in clause (i) of this paragraph with respect to any Account during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Account becomes a Removed Account.

(d)    The parties hereto intend that the conveyance of HRAC’s right, title and interest in and to the Purchased Assets shall constitute an absolute sale, conveying good title free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or rights of others from HRAC to the Company and that the Purchased Assets shall not be part of HRAC’s estate in the event of the insolvency of HRAC or a conservatorship, receivership or similar event with respect to HRAC. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the arrangements with respect to the Purchased Assets shall constitute a purchase and sale of such Purchased Assets and not a loan or a borrowing secured by such Purchased Assets. In the event, however, that it were to be determined that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that HRAC shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Company a first priority perfected security interest in all of HRAC’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables and other Purchased Assets to secure the obligations of HRAC hereunder.

(e)    To the extent that HRAC retains any interest in the Purchased Assets, HRAC hereby grants to the Trust a security interest in all of HRAC’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Receivables and other Purchased Assets that are intended to be pledged to the Trust pursuant to the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement (collectively, the “Trust Collateral”), to secure the performance of all of the obligations of HRAC under this Agreement and any other agreement or document related to the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement. With respect to the Trust Collateral, the Trust shall have all of the rights that it has under the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement and all of the rights of a secured creditor under the UCC.

Section 2.02.    Addition of Additional Accounts.

(a)    If, from time to time, the Company becomes obligated to designate Additional Accounts pursuant to subsection 2.6(a) of the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then the Company may, at its option, give HRAC written notice thereof on or before the tenth Business Day (the “Addition Notice Date”) prior to the Additional Account Closing Date therefor, and upon receipt of such notice HRAC shall on or before the Additional Account Closing Date, designate sufficient Eligible Accounts to be included as Additional Accounts so that after the inclusion thereof the Company will be in compliance with the requirements of said subsection 2.6(a). Additionally, subject to subsections 2.6(b) and (c) of the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subsection 2.02(b), from time to time Eligible Accounts may be designated to be included as Additional Accounts, upon the mutual agreement of the Company and

6

HRAC. In either event, HRAC shall have sole responsibility for selecting the Additional Accounts.

(b)    On the Additional Account Closing Date with respect to any designation of Additional Accounts, the Company shall purchase HRAC’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables in Additional Accounts (and such Additional Accounts shall be deemed to be Accounts for purposes of this Agreement) and the related Purchased Assets, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions on such Additional Account Closing Date:

(i) (x) all Additional Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts and (y) no selection procedures believed by HRAC to be materially adverse to the interests of any Series of Investor Certificates or any Enhancement Provider shall have been utilized in selecting Additional Accounts from available Eligible Accounts;

(ii) In the case of the designation of Additional Accounts, HRAC shall deliver to the Company (i) the computer file or microfiche list required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 with respect to such Additional Accounts and (ii) on or prior to the Additional Account Closing Date, a duly executed, written assignment (including an acceptance by the Company), substantially in the form of Exhibit A (the “Supplemental Conveyance”).

(iii) HRAC shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Company copies of UCC-1 financing statements covering such Additional Accounts, if necessary to perfect the Company’s undivided interest in the Receivables and other Purchased Assets arising therein;

(iv) as of the Additional Account Closing Date, no Insolvency Event with respect to HRAC or other Account Owner, as the case may be, shall have occurred nor shall the transfer of the Receivables arising in the Additional Accounts to the Company have been made in contemplation of the occurrence thereof;

(v) HRAC shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Company an Officer’s Certificate, dated the Additional Account Closing Date, confirming, to the extent applicable, the items set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above; and

(vi) solely with respect to Additional Accounts designated pursuant to the second sentence of subsection 2.02(a), the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied.

(c)    (i) HRAC may, subject to and in compliance with limitations and conditions similar to those specified in the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to the Transferor, (x) designate Eligible Accounts to be included as Accounts as of the applicable Creation Date (“Automatic Additional Accounts”), and (y) may at any time discontinue or suspend designating Eligible Accounts to be included as Automatic Additional Accounts upon written notice to the Company. HRAC acknowledges and agrees with the Company, that each Account originated or acquired by HRAC on or after the Closing Date, shall be considered to be Automatic Additional Accounts constituting

7

Accounts, each within the meaning of this Agreement, on and as of the applicable Creation Date of each such Account until such designation has been discontinued or suspended.

(ii) HRAC shall not be permitted to designate Automatic Additional Accounts pursuant to clause (i) above with respect to any period of the three consecutive Monthly Periods commencing in January, April, July or October of a calendar year, unless the Rating Agency Condition is otherwise satisfied, if the number of Automatic Additional Accounts designated during such period or during any period of twelve (12) consecutive Monthly Periods would exceed the applicable Aggregate Automatic Addition Limit.

(iii) HRAC shall record and file financing statements with respect to the Receivables and other Purchased Assets then existing and thereafter created in the Automatic Additional Accounts for the transfer of accounts, general intangibles and chattel paper (each as defined in the UCC in effect in the Relevant UCC State) meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the conveyance of the Receivables and such other Purchased Assets in Automatic Additional Accounts by HRAC to the Company.

Section 2.03.    Representations and Warranties    HRAC hereby represents and warrants to the Company as of the related Additional Account Closing Date (i) as to the matters set forth in subsection 2.02(b)(iii) above, (ii) that, in the case of Additional Accounts, the list delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) above is, as of the applicable Additional Account Cut-Off Date, true and complete in all material respects and (iii) the Supplemental Conveyance constitutes either (A) a valid transfer and assignment to the Company of all right, title and interest of HRAC in and to the Receivables and other Purchased Assets then existing and thereafter created in the Additional Accounts, all monies due or to become due with respect thereto on and after the Additional Account Cut-Off Date, Recoveries and all proceeds thereof (to the extent set forth in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State), or (B) a grant of a security interest (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State) in such property to the Company, which is enforceable with respect to then existing Receivables and other Purchased Assets of the Additional Accounts, and the proceeds thereof (to the extent set forth in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State), upon the conveyance of such Receivables and other Purchased Assets to the Company, and which will be enforceable with respect to such property thereafter created in respect of Additional Accounts, and the proceeds thereof (to the extent set forth in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State), upon such creation; and (C) if the Supplemental Conveyance constitutes the grant of a security interest to the Company in such property, upon the filing of financing statements as described in Section 2.01 with respect to such Additional Accounts and in the case of such Receivables and other Purchased Assets of Additional Accounts thereafter created and the proceeds thereof (to the extent set forth in the UCC in effect in the Relevant UCC State) upon such creation, the Company shall have a first priority perfected security interest in such property, except for Liens permitted under the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

ARTICLE III

CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT

Section 3.01.    Purchase Price.

(a)    The “Purchase Price” for the Receivables in the Initial Accounts and the related Purchased Assets conveyed to the Company under this Agreement shall be payable on the Closing Date and shall be an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of Principal Receivables in those Accounts as of the Closing Date, plus the present value of anticipated excess spread, computed by taking into account factors such as historical losses, servicing fees, delinquencies and paydown rates, yield and such other factors as HRAC and the Company mutually agree (and discounted to take into account any uncertainty as to future performance matching historical performances), will result in a Purchase Price determined to be the fair market value of such Purchased Assets. This computation of initial purchase price shall assume no reinvestment in new Receivables. The Purchase Price for the Receivables and the related Purchased Assets (including Receivables and the related Purchased Assets in Additional Accounts) to be conveyed to the Company under this Agreement which come into existence after the Closing Date, shall be payable on the Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such Receivables and Purchased Assets are conveyed by HRAC to the Company in an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of the Principal Receivables so conveyed (the “New Principal Receivables”), plus the present value of anticipated excess spread, computed by taking into account factors such as historical losses, servicing fees, delinquencies, paydown rates and yield and such other factors as HRAC and the Company mutually agree (and discounted to take into account any uncertainty as to future performance matching historical performances).

(b)    The Purchase Price to be paid by the Company on the Closing Date and on each Distribution Date following a Monthly Period during which New Principal Receivables are conveyed to the Company shall be paid in cash (including netting against other payments).

Section 3.02.    Adjustments to Purchase Price    The Purchase Price shall be adjusted on each Distribution Date (a “Credit Adjustment”) with respect to any Receivable previously conveyed to the Company by HRAC which has since been reversed because of a rebate, refund, unauthorized charge or billing error to an Obligor because such Receivable was created in respect of merchandise which was refused, returned or not received by an Obligor. The amount of such adjustment shall equal (x) the reduction in the principal balance of such Receivable resulting from the occurrence of such event multiplied by (y) the quotient (expressed as a percentage) of (i) the Purchase Price for Principal Receivables payable on such Distribution Date computed in accordance with Section 3.01(a) divided by (ii) the Principal Receivables paid for on such date pursuant to such Section. In the event that an adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.02 causes the Purchase Price to be a negative number, HRAC agrees that, not later than 1:00 P.M. New York City time on such Distribution Date, HRAC shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price minus the Credit Adjustment would be reduced below zero.

COVENANTS

Section 5.01.    Covenants of HRAC.    HRAC hereby covenants and agrees with the Company as follows:

(a)    Receivables Not To Be Evidenced by Promissory Notes.    Except in connection with its enforcement or collection of an Account, HRAC will take no action to cause any Receivable to be evidenced by any instrument (as defined in the UCC) and if any Receivable is so evidenced as a result of any action by HRAC it shall be deemed to be an Ineligible

13

Receivable in accordance with Section 6.01(a) and shall be reassigned to HRAC in accordance with Section 6.01(b)

(b)    Security Interests.    Except for the conveyances hereunder, HRAC will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or take any other action inconsistent with the Company’s ownership of the Receivables or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (arising through or under HRAC) on, any Receivable, whether now existing or hereafter created, or any interest therein, and HRAC shall not claim any ownership interest in the Receivables and shall defend the right, title and interest of the Company in, to and under the Receivables, whether now existing or hereafter created, against all claims of third parties claiming through or under HRAC.

(c)    Account Allocations.    In the event that HRAC is unable for any reason to transfer Receivables to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, by reason of the application of the provisions of Section 8.02 or any order of any Governmental Authority), then, in any such event, HRAC agrees (except as prohibited by any such order) to allocate and pay to the Company, after the date of such inability, all amounts that the Company will be required to allocate and pay to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.4(d) of the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(d)    Delivery of Collections or Recoveries.    In the event that HRAC receives Collections, HRAC agrees to pay to the Company (or to the Servicer if the Company so directs) all such Collections as soon as practicable after receipt thereof.

(e)    Notice of Liens.    HRAC shall notify the Company promptly after becoming aware of any Lien on any Receivable other than the conveyances hereunder and under the Master Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

(f)    Documentation of Transfer.    HRAC shall undertake to file the documents which would be necessary to perfect and maintain the transfer of the Purchased Assets to the Company.

(g)    Account Agreements and Guidelines.    Subject to compliance with all Requirements of Law, the failure of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company or the Investor Certificateholders (without regard to the amount of any Enhancement), HRAC (or other Account Owner if HRAC is not the Account Owner) or the Servicer may change, or cause to be changed, the terms and provisions of the applicable Account Agreements or the applicable Credit Card Guidelines of HRAC (or other Account Owner if HRAC is not the Account Owner) or the Servicer in any respect (including, without limitation, the calculation of the amount or the timing of charge-offs and the Finance Charges to be assessed thereon). Notwithstanding the above, HRAC (or other Account Owner if HRAC is not the Account Owner) or the Servicer will not take any action unless (i) such change is made applicable to the comparable segment of the revolving credit accounts owned by HRAC (or other Account Owner, as the case may be) and serviced by the Servicer which have characteristics the same as, or substantially similar to, the Accounts that are the subject of such change and (ii) if HRAC (or other Account Owner if HRAC is not the Account Owner) does not own such a comparable segment of accounts, HRAC (or other Account Owner, as the case may be) and the Servicer reasonably believe that such change is not

14

made with the intent to materially benefit HRAC (or such other Account Owner) over the Company or the Investor Certificateholders.

(h)    Approval and Official Records.    HRAC shall cause this Agreement to be duly approved by the HRAC’s Board of Directors, and HRAC shall maintain this Agreement as a part of the official records of HRAC for the term of this Agreement.

HRAC shall pay to the Company by depositing in the Collection Account in immediately available funds, on the first Business Day prior to such applicable Distribution Date following the Monthly Period in which such reassignment obligation arises, in payment for such reassignment, an amount equal to the Aggregate Investor Amount at the end of the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date with respect to which such deposit is made (less the aggregate principal amount, if any, held in the Excess Funding Account and any Principal Account relating to any Series on such Distribution Date), plus (i) an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid interest on the Certificates of all Series at the applicable Certificate Rates through the end of the respective interest period(s) of such Series and (ii) any other unpaid amounts with respect to such Certificates. Upon such reassignment of Receivables, the Company shall automatically and without further action be deemed to sell, transfer, assign, set-over and otherwise convey to HRAC, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Company in and to such Receivables, Recoveries related thereto, all monies and amounts due or to become due with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof; and such reassigned Receivables shall be treated by the Company as collected in full as of the date on which they were transferred.

SUPPLEMENTAL CONVEYANCE No.              dated as of                          ,             , by and between HOUSEHOLD RECEIVABLES ACQUISITION COMPANY (“HRAC”), and HRSI FUNDING, INC. III (“the Company”), pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement referred to below.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, HRAC and the Company are parties to an Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of             , 200 (hereinafter as such agreement may have been, or may from time to time be, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, HRAC wishes to designate Additional Accounts to be included as Accounts and HRAC wishes to convey its right, title and interest in the Receivables of such Additional Accounts, whether now existing or hereafter created, to the Company pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Company is willing to accept such designation and conveyance subject to the terms and conditions hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, HRAC and the Company hereby agree as follows:

1.    Defined Terms.    All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Receivables Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

“Additional Account Closing Date” shall mean, with respect to the Additional Accounts designated hereby                          ,             .

“Additional Account Cut-Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Additional Accounts designated hereby,                          ,             .

2.    Designation of Additional Accounts.    HRAC delivers herewith, or has caused the delivery of, a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete schedule identifying all such Additional Accounts designated hereby (the “Additional Accounts”) and specifying for each such Additional Account, as of the Additional Account Cut-Off Date, its account number, the aggregate amount outstanding in such Account and the aggregate amount of Principal Receivables in such Additional Account. Such computer file, microfiche list or other documentation shall be as of the date of this Supplemental Conveyance incorporated into and

made part of this Supplemental Conveyance and is marked as Schedule I to this Supplemental Conveyance.

3.    Conveyance of Receivables.

(a)    HRAC does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Company, without recourse except as provided in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, all its right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables generated by such Additional Accounts, existing at the close of business on the Additional Cut-Off Date and thereafter created until termination of the Receivables Purchase Agreement pursuant to Article VIII thereof, all Recoveries with respect to such Accounts, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto and all “proceeds” (including, without limitation, “proceeds” as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) thereof.

(b)    In connection with such sale, HRAC agrees to record and file, at its own expense, one or more financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Receivables, existing on the Additional Account Cut-Off Date and thereafter created, for the transfer of accounts and general intangibles meeting the requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect the sale and assignment of and the security interest in the Receivables to the Company, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statement or other evidence of such filing to the Company.

(c)    In connection with such sale, HRAC further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior to the date of this Supplemental Conveyance, to indicate in the appropriate computer files or microfiche list that all Receivables created in connection with the Additional Accounts designated hereby have been conveyed to the Company pursuant to this Supplemental Conveyance.

(d)    The parties hereto intend that the conveyance described in Section 3(a) constitute an absolute sale consistent with the intent expressed in Section 2.01(d) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. In the event, however, that notwithstanding such intent a court of competent jurisdiction were to hold that the transactions evidenced hereby constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, it is the intention of the parties hereto that this Supplemental Conveyance shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that HRAC shall be deemed to have granted, and HRAC does hereby grant, to the Company a first priority perfected security interest in all of the HRAC’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under all Receivables existing on the Additional Account Cut-Off Date in the Additional Accounts and thereafter created from time to time until the termination of the Receivables Purchase Agreement pursuant to Article VIII thereof, all Recoveries with respect to such Accounts, all monies due or to become due and all amounts received or receivable with respect thereto, and all proceeds (including, without limitation, “proceeds” as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) thereof.

Except as expressly amended hereby, all the representations, warranties, terms, covenants and conditions of the Receivables Purchase Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall, remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and except as expressly provided herein shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with or consent to non-compliance with any term or provision of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
