LTD. (“BTMUMUFG Bank”) and each other buyer from time to time party hereto (each, in such capacity, a “Buyer” and collectively, the “Buyers”), and BTMUMUFG Bank, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, each Seller desires to sell certain of its Receivables from time to time, and the Buyers may be willing to purchase from each Seller such Receivables, in which case the terms set forth herein shall apply to such purchase. Each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in, or by reference in, Exhibit A hereto, and the interpretive provisions set out in Exhibit A hereto shall be applied in the interpretation of this Agreement.
Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1.Sale and Purchase.
(a)Sales of Receivables. From time to time during the term of this Agreement, one or more Sellers may submit to the Administrative Agent a request (a “Purchase Request”) via the PrimeRevenue System that the Buyers purchase from such Seller or Sellers the Proposed Receivables described in such Purchase Request on the proposed Purchase Date indicated therein; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (i) the PrimeRevenue System is not operational or is otherwise offline or (ii) the Administrative Agent has, in its discretion, instructed the Sellers that the PrimeRevenue System is no longer available for use, then such Seller or Sellers may deliver a Purchase Request to the Administrative Agent in substantially the form of Schedule I attached hereto, and this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted accordingly, mutatis mutandis.
(b)If received by 12:00no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Buyers in writing in their sole and absolute discretion) on a Business Day from such Seller, by no later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to by the Buyers in writing in their sole and absolute discretion) on such date, the Administrative Agent shall transmit such Purchase Request to each Buyer having a Pro Rata Share in any Proposed Receivables described in such Purchase Request, together with an estimate prepared by the Administrative Agent of the Purchase Price for such Proposed Receivables, and the Pro Rata Share of each such Buyer. The applicable Buyers, in their sole and absolute discretion, may elect to accept or reject a Purchase Request. Each Buyer receiving such a Purchase Request shall endeavor to respond to the Administrative Agent as to its willingness to accept such Purchase Request and purchase its respective Pro Rata Share of such Proposed Receivables by no later than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, an affirmative response by such Buyer shall not be deemed to constitute a commitment to complete such purchase on the proposed Purchase Date, which decision shall remain at the discretion of such Buyer. If the applicable Buyers, in their sole and absolute discretion, accept a Purchase Request, then such Buyers shall purchase, and such Seller or Sellers shall sell, all of each applicable Seller’s right, title and interest (but none of such

Seller’s underlying obligations to the applicable Account Debtor) with respect to such Proposed Receivables as of the Purchase Date to such Buyers to the extent of each Buyer’s Pro Rata Share of each such Proposed Receivable (all such Proposed Receivables, once sold and purchased hereunder, collectively the “Purchased Receivables”). For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that a Buyer’s Pro Rata Share of any particular Proposed Receivable may be zero because such Buyer does not have a Designated Percentage with respect to the Account Debtor related to such Proposed Receivable.
(c)UNCOMMITTED ARRANGEMENT. EACH SELLER AND THE BUYERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS AN UNCOMMITTED ARRANGEMENT, THAT NO SELLER HAS PAID, OR IS REQUIRED TO PAY, A COMMITMENT FEE OR COMPARABLE FEE TO ANY BUYER. SALES OF PROPOSED RECEIVABLES BY A SELLER SHALL BE AT SUCH SELLER’S SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION. PURCHASES OF PROPOSED RECEIVABLES BY ANY BUYER SHALL BE AT SUCH BUYER’S SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION.
(d)Conditions to Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective at such time as each of the conditions precedent set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement has been satisfied to the satisfaction of each of the Administrative Agent and each Buyer.
(e)Conditions Precedent to Each Purchase. Notwithstanding the otherwise uncommitted nature of this Agreement, under no circumstances will any Buyer purchase any portion of any Proposed Receivable unless:
(ii) (i) the Administrative Agent has received a Purchase Request via the PrimeRevenue System (or, if applicable, in physical form in substantially the form of Schedule I attached hereto) with respect to the Proposed Receivables at least two (2) Business Days (or less, if the Administrative Agent and each Buyer holding a Designated Percentage with respect to each Account Debtor appearing on such Purchase Request, so agrees) prior to the applicable Purchase Date, together with any such additional supporting documentation that the Administrative Agent or any Buyer may have reasonably requested;
(ii) (ii) the applicable Buyers have accepted such Purchase Request with respect to such Proposed Receivable and notified the Administrative Agent thereof;
(iii) (iii) no Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and no Servicer Termination Event shall exist immediately following the Buyers’ purchase of such Proposed Receivables;
(iv) (iv) each of the representations and warranties made by each Seller, Servicer and the Guarantor in Exhibit C to this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents is true and correct in all material respects as of such Purchase Date or, in the case of any representation or warranty which speaks as to a particular date or period, as of that particular date or period;
(v) (v) each Proposed Receivable is an Eligible Receivable; and
(vi) (vi) immediately following the sale and purchase of such Proposed Receivable, (A) the Outstanding Purchase Amount will not exceed the Maximum Outstanding Purchase Amount, (B) the Outstanding Purchase Amount with respect to the Purchased Receivables payable by any Account Debtor will not exceed such Account Debtor’s Purchase Sublimit and (C) the Outstanding Purchase Amount with respect to any Buyer will not exceed the Buyer’s Facility Share applicable to such Buyer.
Each delivery of a Purchase Request or submission of a Purchase Request via the PrimeRevenue System by any Seller shall be deemed a representation and warranty by each applicable Seller that the foregoing
[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
2
conditions set forth in subclauses (iii)-(vi) of this clause (e) are satisfied and each of the statements set forth on such Purchase Request are true and correct as of the applicable Purchase Date with respect to the Proposed Receivables described therientherein or submitted onto the PrimeRevenue System, as applicable, with respect to such Purchase Request.
(f)Purchase Price. The purchase price for each Purchased Receivable purchased on any Purchase Date shall equal (i) the Net Invoice Amount of such Purchased Receivable, minus (ii) the Discount (such amount herein referred to as the “Purchase Price”). Each Buyer shall transfer its Pro Rata Share of the Purchase Price (the “Funded Amount”) with respect to each Purchased Receivable by depositing such Funded Amount into the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds denominated in U.S. dollars no later than 2:001:30 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) on the applicable Purchase Date. Upon receipt of all of the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Buyers, shall pay the Purchase Price for each Purchased Receivable on such Purchase Date to the applicable Seller, less any other amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers hereunder on such Purchase Date no later than 3:30 p.m. New York City time. Upon such payment each such Purchased Receivable shall be automatically sold by the applicable Seller to the applicable Buyers without any further action or notice by any party.
(g)Non-Funding Buyers. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received a Buyer’s Funded Amount in connection with each Proposed Receivable to be funded by such Buyer on any Purchase Date in accordance with clause (f) above when required therein (each such Buyer being a “Non-Funding Buyer”), the purchase of any Proposed Receivables in which such Non-Funding Buyer has a Pro Rata Share shall be deemed automatically be rejected by all applicable Buyers (each., an “Auto Rejected Receivable”); provided that any Proposed Receivables in which such Non-Funding Buyer has does not have a Pro Rata Share shall not be deemed automatically rejected and shall continue to be funded by the Administrative Agent. In the case of any Proposed Receivables that are also Auto Rejected Receivables, (i) the Administrative Agent shall promptly return any related Funded Amounts delivered by the other Buyers having a Pro Rata Share under such Auto Rejected Receivables to such Buyers and (ii) if mutually agreed among the Sellers, the Administrative Agent and the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers (as defined below), the Sellers may submit a new Purchase Request in accordance with Section 1(a) containing only the Auto Rejected Receivables and such Auto Rejected Receivables may be purchased, according to the applicable Modified Designated Percentages (as defined below), by the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers. For purposes of this Section 1(g), (A) “Modified Designated Percentage Buyers” shall mean, collectively, some or all of the Buyers that have a Pro Rata Share in respect of an Auto Rejected Receivables (other than any Non-Funding Buyers) and (B) “Modified Designated Percentage” shall mean, in connection with any Proposed Receivables that are also Auto Rejected Receivables, the respective Designated Percentages corresponding to the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers from time to time agreed among the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers, the Administrative Agent and the Sellers (but in all cases representing, on an aggregate basis, 100% of each such Proposed Receivable).
(h)True Sale; No Recourse. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each purchase of the Purchased Receivables is made without recourse to any Seller and no Seller shall have liability to the Administrative Agent or any Buyer for the failure of any Account Debtor to pay any Purchased Receivable when it is due and payable under the terms applicable thereto. The parties hereto have structured each transaction contemplated by this Agreement as an absolute and irrevocable sale, and each Buyer, the Guarantor and each Seller agree to treat each such transaction as a “true sale” for all purposes under Applicable Law and accounting principles, including, without limitation, in their
[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
3
payment made by a Seller or Servicer pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms hereof, (B) any payment obtained by a Buyer as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Purchased Receivables to any assignee or participant, or (C) any closing fees payable to the Administrative Agent and documented separately from this Agreement in any Agent Fee Letter or otherwise.
(d)Misdirected Payments. If, following receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Buyer of any payment (whether from any Seller, Servicer or Account Debtor) initially deemed a Collection in respect of Purchased Receivable, such payment is later identified as constituting payment in respect of a Receivable which is not a Purchased Receivable, the Administrative Agent or such Buyer, as applicable, will return such payment to the applicable Seller upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Buyer that such amounts do not constitute Collections on Purchased Receivables.
(e)Identifying Collections. Pursuant to its servicing obligations under Section 5(a) hereof, each Servicer shall be responsible for identifying, matching and reconciling any payments received from Account Debtors with the Receivable associated with such payment. If any payment is received from an Account Debtor, and such payment is not identified by such Account Debtor in its remittance instructions as relating to a particular Receivable and such payment cannot otherwise be reasonably identified by the applicable Servicer as relating to a particular Receivable within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof, then such payment shall be applied against unpaid Purchased Receivables andof such Account Debtor and the unpaid Receivables not constituting Purchased Receivables of such Account Debtor in chronological order., oldest first. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that (i) the foregoing sentence is intended to deal with the rare situation where a payment cannot be identified to a particular Receivable and (ii) nothing in the foregoing sentence shall be understood to permit such Servicer to apply to non-Purchased Receivables any Collections which are identifiable as Collections in respect of Purchased Receivables.
(f)No Changes to Receivables. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in Section 6(a) hereof, no Seller or Servicer shall compromise or settle any Purchased Receivable or extend the Maturity Date with respect thereto without the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Buyer who has acquired any interest in any such Purchased Receivables in accordance with this Agreement.
(g)Reconciliation Report. Concurrently with (a) each transfer of funds by any Seller to the Administrative Agent’s Account on a Settlement Date and (b) each request by any Seller for a return of payments received by the Administrative Agent or a Buyer which do not represent Collections on Purchased Receivables in accordance with Section 5(d), the Servicers shall provide to the Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, a full reconciliation of all Collections with respect to each Purchased Receivable of an Account Debtor for which Collections were received (each, a “Reconciliation Report”). The Servicers shall be responsible for submitting the Reconciliation Report to the Administrative Agent via the PrimeRevenue System; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (i) the PrimeRevenue System is not operational or is otherwise offline or (ii) the Administrative Agent has, in its discretion, instructed a Servicer that the PrimeRevenue System is no longer available for use, then such Servicer may deliver a written Reconciliation Report to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Buyers), and this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted accordingly, mutatis mutandis.
(h)Non-Payment Report. In the event a Purchased Receivable has not been paid in full by the date that is seven (7) days after the Maturity Date therefor (an “Overdue Receivable”), the applicable Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the cause of such payment delay or non-payment, including whether it is due to a Dispute, and it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (for delivery

to the Buyer) by no later than fourteen (14) days after such Maturity Date, a certification and report (a “Non-Payment Report”) identifying the Overdue Receivable and the Account Debtor thereof and describing in reasonable detail the cause of such non-payment, including whether a Dispute exists with respect to such Overdue Receivable, or certifying that such cause is unknown. In the event a Purchased Receivable has not been paid in full by the date that is thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date therefor and no Non-Payment Report with respect thereto has been delivered or the Non-Payment Report delivered with respect thereto does not report a Dispute or states that the cause of such payment delay or non-payment is unknown (a “Non-Payment Event”), the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion (or shall, at the direction of the Required Buyers) (a) contact such Account Debtor by phone or in person to discuss the status of such Overdue Receivable and to inquire whether such payment delay or non-payment is due to a Dispute and when payment can be expected and/or (b) take any other lawful action to collect such Purchased Receivable directly from such Account Debtor. If the Account Debtor advises the Administrative Agent of the existence of a Dispute, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Seller of such Overdue Receivable that the Account Debtor has asserted a Dispute.
(i)Servicer Indemnification. Each Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Buyers and their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, shareholders, counsel, employees and each of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all damages, claims, losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) arising out of or resulting from or related to (i) any failure by any Servicer to perform its duties or obligations as Servicer hereunder in accordance with this Agreement or to comply in all material respects with any Applicable Law in connection with the Transaction Documents or any Purchased Receivables, (ii) any breach of any Servicer’s (in its capacity as Servicer) representations, warranties or covenants under any Transaction Document or (iii) any claim brought by any Person other than an Indemnified Person arising from any Servicer’s servicing or collection activities with respect to the Purchased Receivables; provided, however, that in all events there shall be excluded from the foregoing indemnification any damages, claims, losses, costs, expenses or liabilities to the extent resulting solely from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of anthe applicable Indemnified Person and/or any of its Related Indemnified Persons as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) the failure of an Account Debtor to pay any sum due under its Purchased Receivables by reason of the financial or credit condition of such Account Debtor (including, without limitation, the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the applicable Account Debtor), or (z) any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Buyer without the consent of the Servicer, at any time prior to the Servicer’s removal as Servicer with respect to such Purchased Receivable in accordance with clause (j) of this Section 5 to compromise or settle its claim against the applicable Account Debtor in respect of any such Purchased Receivable. Any amount due and payable pursuant to this clause shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the first Settlement Date following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.
(j) Replacement of Servicers. Following the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the direction of the Required Buyers, shall, replace any or all Servicers with itself or any agent for the Administrative Agent with respect to any and all Purchased Receivables. Sellers shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such replacement and shall promptly reimburse the Administrative Agent with respect to same. Any amount due and payable pursuant to this clause shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the first Settlement Date following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.

12
(d)Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any document, other writing or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Buyers, and assurance of its indemnification, as it deems appropriate.
(e)Actions by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall take such actions, or refrain from taking such actions, under each of the Transaction Documents with respect to the rights and remedies of Buyers, including with respect to any Purchased Receivable, in each case as may be directed by the Required Buyers; provided, until the Administrative Agent receives such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as Administrative Agent deems advisable and in the best interests of the Buyers. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Buyers, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Buyers and the Administrative Agent.
(f)Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Buyers. Each Buyer expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Buyer and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

Except for items specifically required to be delivered hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Buyer with any information concerning any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
(g)Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Each of the Buyers and the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates may extend credit to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, debt, entity or other business with any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates and BTMUMUFG Bank may exercise or refrain from exercising its rights and powers as if it were not the Administrative Agent. With respect to the purchase of the Proposed Receivables pursuant to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Buyer, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Buyer and may exercise the same as though it were not such an agent, and the terms “Buyer” and “Buyers” shall include the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Buyer.
(h)Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may, upon at least forty-five (45) days’ notice to the Guarantor, each Seller, each Servicer and each Buyer, resign as Administrative Agent. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is subject to an Insolvency Event, the Buyers (excluding the Buyer that is also the Administrative Agent at such time, if applicable) may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Guarantor and such Person remove such Person as Administrative

14
Agent. Any resignation or removal, as the case may be, shall not become effective until a successor agent is appointed by the Buyers (excluding the Buyer that is also the Administrative Agent at such time, if applicable), but with the consent of the Guarantor (provided, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and has accepted such appointment. Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring or removed, as applicable, Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent under the Transaction Documents. After any retiring or removed, as applicable, Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal, as applicable, hereunder, the provisions of Section 18 and this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.
(i)Know Your Customer. Nothing in this Agreement shall require any Buyer (including any Buyer when acting as Administrative Agent) to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any other Buyer. Each Buyer confirms and acknowledges that it is solely responsible for such checks and verifications it is required to carry out.
(j)Enforcement.
(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document and without limiting Section 8(e) (but subject to the rest of this Section 8(j)), the authority to enforce rights and remedies of the Buyers hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents against any Person shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8(a) for the benefit of all the Buyers.
(vii) In the event that (1) any Buyer shall at any time be the sole owner of 100% of any Purchased Receivable and no other Buyer shall have a Pro Rata Share in such Purchased Receivable (each, a “Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivable”; and such Buyer an “Affected Buyer”), and (2) a Non-Payment Event occurs with respect to such Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivable, then:
(A) Each Affected Buyer may elect by written notice to the Administrative Agent, each Seller, each Servicer and each other Buyer (each a “Direct Enforcement Election”), to exercise any rights and remedies otherwise available to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement in respect of such Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivable, including, without limitation, those in Section 5(h).
(B) Upon the delivery of such Direct Enforcement Election, (1) neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Buyer shall have the right to exercise such rights and remedies with respect to the Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivables of such Affected Buyer designated in such Direct Enforcement Election and (2) neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Buyer shall have any liability to such Affected Buyer, any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor or any other Person for the actions of such Affected Buyer or its respective representatives or agents in respect thereof.
(C) Upon the request of an Affected Buyer, Administrative Agent will, if permitted to do so under Applicable Law, assign to such Affected Buyer, its security interest in the applicable Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivables subject to any Direct Enforcement Election and shall deliver to such Affected Buyer, such UCC filing statements as such Affected Buyer shall reasonably request in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent and such Affected Buyer to assign to such Affected Buyer the

Administrative Agent’s UCC-1 filing position as secured party of record, but solely with respect to such Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivables.
(D) Each Affected Buyer, the other Buyers and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with each other in good faith to coordinate the exercise of their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents with respect to such Wholly-Owned Purchased Receivables and the Purchased Receivables generally.
(k)Prompt Delivery of Information. Unless specifically required otherwise under the terms of this Agreement, to the extent the Administrative Agent receives information from the Sellers or the Servicers, which by the terms of this Agreement is “for delivery to the Buyers” or other similar terms, the Administrative Agent shall endeavor to promptly deliver such information to the Buyers; provided that the failure to do so in a timely manner shall not give rise to any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent.

Unless otherwise provided herein, all communications by any party to any other party hereunder or any other Transaction Document shall be in a writing personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight delivery service, or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by e-mail to such party, as the case may be, at its address set forth below:
