ARTICLE II

TRANSFERS OF RECEIVABLES

Section 2.01. Agreement to Sell.

(a) Receivables Sales. Under the Existing RSA, each of the Sellers sold or contributed to Buyer on each respective “Transfer Date” (as defined in the Existing RSA), all Receivables owned by it on each such “Transfer Date,” and Buyer purchased all such Receivables on each such “Transfer Date.” Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Seller agrees to sell, without recourse except to the limited extent specifically provided herein, to Buyer on the Restatement Effective Date and on each Business Day thereafter prior to the delivery of an Election Notice relating to such Seller (each such date, a “Transfer Date” and each such sale, a “Sale”) all Receivables owned by it on each such Transfer Date, and Buyer agrees to purchase all such Receivables on each such Transfer Date. All such Sales by a Seller to Buyer shall collectively be evidenced by a certificate of assignment substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.01(a) (each, a “Receivables Assignment,” and collectively, the “Receivables Assignments”), and each Seller and Buyer has previously executed and delivered a Receivables Assignment on or before the Restatement Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, unless the Commitment Termination Date has occurred, each Seller (other than any Seller in respect of which an Election Notice has been delivered) shall continue to transfer Receivables pursuant to this Agreement on each Transfer Date following the delivery of an Election Notice in respect of any Seller.

(b) Determination of Transferred Receivables. On and as of each Transfer Date, all Receivables then owned by each Seller and not previously acquired by Buyer shall be sold to Buyer (each such Receivable, individually, a “Transferred Receivable” and, collectively, the “Transferred Receivables”).

(c) Payment of Purchase Price. (i) In consideration of each Sale of Transferred Receivables hereunder, Buyer shall pay to the Seller thereof or its designee on the Transfer Date therefor the applicable Purchase Price (x) in Dollars in immediately available funds or (y) otherwise in the manner provided in this Section 2.01(c). All cash payments by Buyer under this Section 2.01(c)(i) shall be made on the day when due to such account or accounts as the Sellers may designate from time to time.

(ii) The Purchase Price for Transferred Receivables shall be paid by Buyer on each Transfer Date (including the initial Transfer Date) as follows:

(A) first, by netting the amount of any Purchase Price Credits then due to Buyer against such Purchase Price;

(B) second, after satisfaction of all Purchase Price Credits, to the extent available for such purpose (as determined by Buyer), cash of the Buyer in Dollars or other immediately available funds; and

(C) subject to the terms of Section 2.05 hereto, by means of addition to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note (each such addition, a “Subordinated Loan”) to Buyer in an amount equal to the balance of the Purchase Price. The Subordinated Loans of a Seller shall be evidenced by a subordinated promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.01(c)(ii) hereto (a “Subordinated Note”) executed by Buyer and the Seller Agent, for the account of the Sellers. Any such addition to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note shall be allocated among the Sellers (pro rata according to the aggregate purchase price for the Receivables sold by each Seller on such day) by the

 

Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement

Seller Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.01(c)(ii)(C) and Section 2.08. The Subordinated Loans shall bear interest and be payable as provided in the Subordinated Note. In no event shall a Subordinated Loan be made in a manner or amount prohibited by the terms of the Subordinated Note or Section 2.05. The Seller Agent may evidence such additional principal amounts by recording the date and amount thereof on the grid attached to the Subordinated Note; provided, however, that the failure to make any such recordation or any error in such grid shall not adversely affect any Seller’s rights.

(d) The Seller Agent shall be responsible for allocating among the Sellers the payment of the Purchase Price and any amounts netted therefrom pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(ii)(A) or credited to Buyer pursuant Section 2.01(c)(ii)(A) or paid in the form of cash to be paid pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(ii)(B) or in the form of an addition to the principal amount of the Subordinated Loan pursuant Section 2.01(c)(ii)(C). All amounts payable by Buyer in respect of the Purchase Price shall be paid by Buyer to an account of the Seller Agent for allocation by the Seller Agent to the respective Sellers (ratably in accordance with the portion of the Purchase Price owing to each). Each of the Sellers hereby appoints the Seller Agent as its agent for purposes of receiving such payments, making such allocations and taking any other actions hereunder on its behalf and hereby authorizes Buyer to make all payments due to such Seller directly to, or as directed by, the Seller Agent. The Seller Agent hereby accepts and agrees to such appointment. Any such payment by Buyer to or at the direction of the Seller Agent shall constitute a full and complete discharge of Buyer’s liability for the amounts so paid, whether or not the proceeds of such payment are properly distributed by the Seller Agent to the applicable Seller for whose account such payment was made.

(e) Election Notice. If on any Transfer Date, if any Seller will not sell all of its then owned Receivables to Buyer, such Seller shall deliver to Buyer not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding such Transfer Date a notice of election thereof (each such notice, an “Election Notice”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no “Election Notice” shall be deemed to be delivered for purposes of this clause (e) if, in connection with a Seller Disposition, a Seller will no longer sell all of its Receivables or the Related Receivables with respect to such Seller Disposition to Buyer and Buyer shall comply with Section 2.04(b) of the Credit Agreement in respect of any related repurchase of Transferred Receivables reasonably promptly thereafter. Any Election Notice delivered pursuant to this clause (e) shall be irrevocable.

(f) Ownership of Transferred Receivables. On and after each Transfer Date and after giving effect to the Sales to be made on each such date, Buyer shall own the Transferred Receivables and no Seller shall take any action inconsistent with such ownership nor shall any Seller claim any ownership interest in such Transferred Receivables. It is understood that the Sellers, the Parent and the Buyer may be consolidated for accounting purposes, as required by GAAP.

(g) Reconstruction of General Trial Balance. If at any time any Seller fails to generate its General Trial Balance, Buyer shall have the right to reconstruct such General Trial Balance so that a determination of the Transferred Receivables can be made pursuant to Section 2.01(b). Each Seller agrees to cooperate with such reconstruction, including by delivery to Buyer, upon Buyer’s request, of copies of all Records.

Section 2.02. Grant of Security Interest. The parties hereto intend that each Sale of Transferred Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a “sale of accounts” or “payment intangibles”, which sale is absolute and irrevocable and provides Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables subject thereto, and shall not constitute a loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in addition to and not in

 

Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement

derogation of any rights now or hereafter acquired by Buyer under Section 2.01 hereof, the parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law and if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any transaction provided for herein constitutes a loan and not a sale, that each Seller shall be deemed to have granted, and each Seller does hereby grant, to Buyer a continuing security interest in all of such Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under all Receivables whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Seller, the Collection Accounts, the Lockboxes and all funds on deposit therein to secure the obligations of such Seller to Buyer hereunder (including, if and to the extent that any Sale is recharacterized as a transfer for security under applicable law, the repayment of a loan deemed to have been made by Buyer to the applicable Seller in the amount of the Purchase Price with respect thereto, including interest thereon at the Index Rate).

Section 2.03. Sellers Remain Liable. It is expressly agreed by the Sellers that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Seller shall remain liable to the Obligor (and any other party to the related Contract) under any and all of the Receivables originated by it and under the Contracts therefor to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder. Buyer shall not have any obligation or liability to the Obligor or any other party to the related Contract under any such Receivables or Contracts by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the granting herein of a Lien thereon or the receipt by Buyer of any payment relating thereto pursuant hereto. The exercise by Buyer of any of its rights under this Agreement shall not release any Seller from any of its respective duties or obligations under any such Receivables or Contracts. Buyer shall not be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Seller under or pursuant to any such Receivable or Contract, or to make any payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any such Receivable or Contract, or to present or file any claims, or to take any action to collect or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

Section 2.04. Purchase Price Credits. If on any day the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result of any Dilution Factor, then, in such event, the Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder in an amount equal to such reduction or cancellation. If the Commitment Termination Date has occurred or the aggregate Purchase Price Credits in respect of any Seller exceeds the Purchase Price in respect of the Receivables of such Seller payable on any Transfer Date, then such Seller agrees to pay the amount of such excess to Buyer in cash promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) thereafter; provided that if the Commitment Termination Date has not occurred, such Seller may also set-off the amount of such excess against any indebtedness owed to it under a Subordinated Note to the extent permitted thereunder.

Section 2.05. Limitation on Subordinated Loans. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Seller shall make any Subordinated Loan pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(ii)(C) if (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Subordinated Loans outstanding on such Transfer Date would exceed 25% of the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Transferred Receivables on such Transfer Date or (ii) the Net Worth of Buyer on such Transfer Date is less than $74,000,000.

Section 2.06. No Repurchase. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein, no Seller shall have any right or obligation under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, by implication or otherwise, to repurchase from Buyer any Receivables or to rescind or otherwise retroactively affect by Sale of Receivables after it is sold to Buyer hereunder.

Section 2.07. Payments and Computations.

(a) All amounts to be paid or deposited by Buyer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account of the Seller Agent designated from time to time by the Seller Agent or as otherwise directed by the Seller Agent; provided that to the extent Collections during any Settlement Period that are available to fund the Purchase Price of Receivables sold during such period are less than the full amount of such Purchase Price, the unpaid portion thereof shall be paid or provided for on the related Settlement Date in accordance with this Section 2.07(c). In the event that any payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such Payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Each Seller hereby agrees that the Seller Agent is authorized to receive amounts due from Buyer to such Seller hereunder. All amounts so received shall be applied in the following order of payment during each Settlement Period:

(i) first, to pay any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.01(c)(ii)(B); and

(ii) second, to make payments of interest on, and then principal of the Subordinated Note in accordance with Section 2.08.

(c) On each Settlement Date:

(i) the Seller Agent shall determine the aggregate Purchase Price (the “Aggregate Purchase Price”) for all Receivables conveyed by the Sellers to Buyer during the preceding Settlement Period or, in the case of the Facility Maturity Date, during the period from the end of the most recent Settlement Period to the Facility Maturity Date (each such period, an “Adjusted Settlement Period”); provided that the final Adjusted Settlement Period shall commence on the day following the most recently ended Adjusted Settlement Period and shall end on the Facility Maturity Date;

(ii) if on any Settlement Period the Aggregate Purchase Price for the related Adjusted Settlement Period minus the aggregate amount of Purchase Price Credits for such Adjusted Settlement Period (such difference, the “Modified Aggregate Purchase Price”) exceeds the amount of cash payments received by the Seller Agent from Buyer for such Adjusted Monthly Period (such amount, the “Cash Payments”), the Seller Agent shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement and to the extent it has not already done so, record such excess as an increase in the principal amount outstanding under the Subordinated Note (subject to the limitation set forth in Section 2.05);

(iii) if on any Settlement Date, the Cash Payments for the related Adjusted Settlement Period exceed the Modified Aggregate Purchase Price for such Adjusted Settlement Period, the Seller Agent shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, record the application of that excess (x) first, to the payment of any unpaid and accrued interest on the Subordinated Note, (y) second, as a reduction in the principal amount of the Subordinated Note, and (z) third, cause the Sellers to pay any remaining excess to the Buyer.

Section 2.08. Subordinated Note.

(a) On the date of the initial Sale, Buyer issued to the Seller Agent, for the account of the Sellers as their respective interests may appear, the Subordinated Note. The aggregate principal amount of the Subordinated Note at any time shall be equal to the difference between (i) the aggregate principal amount on the issuance thereof and each addition to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note with respect to each Seller pursuant to the terms of Section 2.01(c)(ii)(C) and Section 2.07 as of such time, minus, (ii) the aggregate amount of all payment made in respect of the principal of the Subordinated Note as of such time. All payments made in respect of the Subordinated Note shall be allocated, first to pay accrued and unpaid interest thereon, second, to pay the outstanding principal amount thereof. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Note shall accrue at a rate per annum as set forth in the Subordinated Note, to be paid (x) on each Settlement Date with respect to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note outstanding from time to time during the Adjusted Settlement Period immediately preceding such Settlement Date (but only to the extent that Buyer has funds available to make such payment) and (y) on the maturity date thereof. Upon receipt of any such payment, the Seller Agent shall distribute such payment to the Sellers ratably based on their respective interests in the Subordinated Note as described in Section 2.08(b). Principal of the Subordinated Note not paid or prepaid pursuant to the terms hereof shall be payable on the maturity date thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payments to be made by Buyer in respect of the Subordinated Note shall be made solely from funds available to Buyer that are not otherwise required to be applied or set-aside for the payment of any obligations of Buyer under the Credit Agreement, shall be non-recourse other than with respect to such funds and shall not constitute a claim against Buyer to the extent that insufficient funds exist to make such payment.

(b) Each addition to the principal amount of the Subordinated Note on any Transfer Date pursuant to Section 2.01(c) shall be allocated among the Sellers by the Seller Agent ratably in proportion to the Purchase Price owing to each on such Transfer Date.

Section 2.09. Additional Sellers. In order for a Subsidiary of Parent that is not a Seller on the date hereof to become a party to this Agreement in the capacity as a Seller, a Joinder Agreement for such Subsidiary in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto must have been executed by all requisite parties thereto and have been delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The acceptance by any Seller of the Purchase Price for any Transferred Receivables on any Transfer Date shall be deemed to constitute, as of any such Transfer Date, a representation and warranty by such Seller that the conditions precedent set forth in this Article III have been satisfied.

Each of the Transaction Documents to which such Seller is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Seller and each such Transaction Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Seller, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(d) No Litigation.

(e) Solvency. After giving effect to (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) the payment and accrual of all transaction costs in connection with the foregoing, such Seller is and will be Solvent. After giving effect to the Sale of Receivables and other payments and transactions contemplated on each Transfer Date, such Seller is and will be Solvent.

(f) Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2013, no event has occurred that alone or together with other events could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(g) Ownership of Receivables; Liens. Such Seller owns each Receivable originated or acquired by it free and clear of any Adverse Claim and, from and after each Transfer Date, Buyer will acquire valid and properly perfected title to and the sole record and beneficial ownership interest in each Transferred Receivable purchased or otherwise acquired on such date, free and clear of any Adverse Claim or restrictions on transferability. Such Seller has received all assignments, bills of sale and other documents, and has duly effected all recordings, filings and other actions necessary to establish, protect and perfect such Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Receivables originated or acquired by it.

statements or other similar instruments are of record in any filing office listing such Seller as debtor and purporting to cover the Transferred Receivables except with respect to the Liens granted to Buyer hereunder.

(h) [RESERVED].

(i) Taxes. Except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all material tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by any domestic Affiliate of Parent have been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and all Charges have been paid prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment thereof (or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss has been paid and taking into account applicable extensions), excluding Charges or other amounts being contested in accordance with Section 4.02(k). Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by such Seller or any such domestic Affiliates from its respective employees for all periods in full and complete compliance with all applicable federal, state, provincial, local and foreign laws and such withholdings have been timely paid to the respective Governmental Authorities (taking into account any applicable extensions).

(v) Fair Value. With respect to each Transferred Receivable of such Seller acquired by the Buyer hereunder, (i) the consideration received from the Buyer in respect of such Transferred Receivable represents adequate consideration and fair and reasonably equivalent value for such Transferred Receivable as of the applicable Transfer Date and (ii) such consideration is not less than the fair market value of such Transferred Receivables, in each case, as of the applicable Transfer Date and taking into account any increase in the outstanding balance of the Subordinated Note.

(f) Actions Affecting Rights. Such Seller shall not (i) take any action, or fail to take any action, if such action or failure to take action would reasonably be expected to materially interfere with the enforcement of any rights hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents, including rights with respect to the Transferred Receivables; or (ii) fail to pay any Charge, fee or other obligation of such Seller with respect to the Transferred Receivables, or fail to defend any action, if such failure to pay or defend will or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the priority or enforceability of the perfected title of Buyer to and the sole legal and beneficial ownership interest of Buyer in the Transferred Receivables or, prior to their Transfer hereunder, such Seller’s right, title or interest therein.

(g) ERISA. Such Seller shall not, or shall cause or permit any ERISA Affiliate to, cause or permit to occur an event that could reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of a Lien under Section 412 of the IRC or Section 302 or 4068 of ERISA or cause or permit to occur an ERISA Event.

(h) Change to Credit and Collection Policies. Such Seller shall not fail to comply in any material respect with, and shall make no change, amendment, modification or waiver to, the Credit and Collection Policies without the prior written consent of Buyer.

(i) Change in Instruction to Obligors.

(k) Commingling. Such Seller shall not deposit any funds that do not constitute Collections of Transferred Receivables into any Lockbox or Collection Account, provided that after the Commitment Termination Date, so long as any Transferred Receivables of an Obligor remain unpaid, such Seller shall not instruct such Obligor to remit Collections of any Transferred Receivables to any Person or account other than to a Lockbox or Collection Account. If any funds not constituting collections of Transferred Receivables are nonetheless deposited into a Lockbox or Collection Account and such Seller so notifies Buyer, Buyer shall notify the Administrative Agent to promptly remit any such amounts to the applicable Seller. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, credit card receipts that do not pertain to the Borrower’s Receivables may be deposited from time to time in the Collection Accounts in the ordinary course of business so long as the Servicer withdraws such amounts within two (2) Business Days of deposit therein and transfer such amounts to the owner thereof.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all notices to be provided to the Buyer hereunder shall be delivered to both the Buyer and the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement, and shall be effective only upon such delivery to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication to any Person (other than Buyer) designated in any written communication provided hereunder to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever it is provided herein that a notice is to be given to any other party hereto by a specific time, such notice shall only be effective if actually received by such party prior to such time, and if such notice is received after such time or on a day other than a Business Day, such notice shall only be effective on the immediately succeeding Business Day.

Section 6.02. No Waiver; Remedies. Buyer’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Sellers of any provision of this Agreement or any Receivables Assignment shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Buyer thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect any other breach or default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a different type. None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of any Seller contained in this Agreement or any Receivables Assignment, and no breach or default by any Seller hereunder or thereunder, shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Buyer unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other duly authorized signatory of Buyer and directed to such Seller specifying such suspension or waiver.

Recourse to the Receivables shall not be required.

Section 6.03. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each Seller, Seller Agent and Buyer and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise provided herein. No Seller nor the Seller Agent may assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder without the prior express written consent of Buyer. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by any Seller without the prior express written consent of Buyer, shall be void. Each Seller and the Seller Agent acknowledges that Buyer has assigned to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders all of its

 

Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement

 

20


rights granted hereunder, including the benefit of any indemnities under Article V, and the Administrative Agent has, to the extent of such assignment, all rights of Buyer hereunder and, to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement, may in turn assign such rights. Each Seller agrees that the Administrative Agent may enforce directly, without joinder of Buyer, the rights set forth in this Agreement. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall be third party beneficiaries of, and shall be entitled to enforce Buyer’s rights and remedies under, this Agreement to the same extent as Buyer or any of its designated representatives may do. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of each Seller, the Seller Agent and Buyer with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and, except for the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent, no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.04. Termination; Survival of Obligations.

(a) This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of any commitment made by Buyer under this Agreement shall in any way affect or impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of any Seller, the Seller Agent or the rights of Buyer relating to any unpaid portion of any and all recourse and indemnity obligations of such Seller or the Seller Agent to Buyer, including those set forth in Sections 2.04, 4.04, 5.01, 6.12, 6.13 and 6.14, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of which is required after the Commitment Termination Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon each Seller and the Seller Agent, and all rights of Buyer hereunder, all as contained in the Transaction Documents, shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided, that the rights and remedies pursuant to Sections 4.04, the indemnification and payment provisions of Article V, and the provisions of Sections 4.03(j), 6.14 and 6.15 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.05. Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and may not be modified, altered or amended except as set forth in Section 6.06.

Section 6.06. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by any Seller or the Seller Agent therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the parties hereto; provided, that, prior to the Termination Date, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by any Seller or the Seller Agent therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent. No consent or demand in any case shall, in itself, entitle any party to any other consent or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 6.07. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH TRANSACTION DOCUMENT (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT EXPRESSLY PROVIDES TO THE

 

Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement

 

21


CONTRARY) AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT LAW ARISING OUT OF THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND ANY DETERMINATION WITH RESPECT TO POST-JUDGMENT INTEREST), BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS).

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY; PROVIDED, FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE BUYER FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE RECEIVABLES OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE SELLERS ARISING HEREUNDER, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF BUYER. EACH PARTY HERETO SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6.01 HEREOF AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

(c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 6.08. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement.

Section 6.09. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.10. Section Titles. The section titles and table of contents contained in this Agreement are provided for ease of reference only and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

Section 6.12. [Intentionally omitted].

Section 6.13. Further Assurances.

(a) Each Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, upon request of Buyer, promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all further instruments and documents and take such further actions that may be necessary or desirable or that Buyer may request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or to obtain the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (i) using its best efforts to secure all consents and approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to or for the benefit of Buyer of any Transferred Receivable held by such Seller or in which such Seller has any rights not heretofore assigned, and (ii) filing any financing or continuation statements under the UCC with respect to the ownership interests or Liens granted hereunder or under any other Transaction Document. Each Seller hereby authorizes Buyer, to file any such financing or continuation statements. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any notice or financing statement covering the Transferred Receivables or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a notice or financing statement where permitted by law. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Transferred Receivables is or shall become evidenced by any instrument, such instrument, other than checks and notes received in the ordinary course of business, shall be duly endorsed in a manner satisfactory to Buyer immediately upon such Seller’s receipt thereof and promptly delivered to Buyer.

(b) If any Seller fails to perform any agreement or obligation under this Section 6.13, Buyer may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, and the reasonable expenses of Buyer incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Seller upon demand of Buyer.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Seller shall be required to take any actions in compliance with the laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States in connection with the transfer or pledge pursuant to the Transaction Documents of any Receivables of an Obligor domiciled in such jurisdiction.

Section 6.14. Fees and Expenses. In addition to its indemnification obligations pursuant to Article V, each Seller agrees, jointly and severally, to pay (or cause the Seller Agent to pay) on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Buyer, (including any such amounts owed by Buyer in connection with its financing of the Transfers hereunder), for counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors retained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and advice in connection therewith, and each Seller agrees, jointly and severally, to pay all costs and expenses, if any (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding any costs of enforcement or collection of the Transferred Receivables (including, without limitation, any costs of enforcement of the Seller Support Agreement)), in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 6.15. Nonrecourse Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision in any other Section of this Agreement to the contrary, any obligation of Buyer to pay any amounts payable to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Buyer except to the extent that funds from Sales of Receivables or Collections are available to the Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for such payment (collectively, the “Buyer Available Amounts”), in the event that amounts payable to the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement exceed the Buyer Available Amounts, the excess of the amounts due hereunder (and subject to this Section 6.15) over the Buyer Available Amounts paid shall not constitute a “claim” under Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code against Buyer until such time as the Buyer has Buyer Available Amounts.

Section 6.16. Interpretation. References herein to the “security interest” of the Buyer in the Transferred Receivables shall be given the meaning ascribed thereto in Section 1-201(37) of the UCC in the context of a security interest in accounts receivable, and accordingly shall refer to a lien or ownership interest, as applicable, consistent with the requirements of Section 2.02.

Section 6.17. Amendment and Restatement. The parties hereto agree that as of the Restatement Effective Date, the terms and conditions of the Existing RSA shall be and hereby are amended, superseded, and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation of the Existing RSA or the indebtedness incurred thereunder. With respect to any date or time period occurring and ending prior to the Restatement Effective Date, the rights and obligations of the parties to the Existing RSA shall be governed by the Existing RSA and the “Transaction Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), and with respect to any date or time period occurring and ending on or after the Restatement Effective Date, the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

SUBORDINATED NOTE

[                 ,         ]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, SunGard AR Financing LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of SunGard Data Systems Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Seller Agent”), as agent for the “Sellers” referred to below, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, the principal amount of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Subordinated Loans (as defined in the Sale Agreement referred to below) made by the Sellers to the Borrower, upon the earlier to occur of (i) Final Advance Date and (ii) the Termination Date (in each case, as defined the Sale Agreement referred to below), together with interest thereon from time to time from the Restatement Effective Date (as defined in the Sale Agreement referred to below) at the Index Rate (as defined in the Sale Agreement referred to below) on such date (the “Interest Rate”) on the unpaid principal amount of each Subordinated Loan for the period commencing on and including the date of such Subordinated Loan to but excluding the date such Subordinated Loan is paid in full.

The date, amount and interest rate of each Subordinated Loan made by the Sellers to the Borrower, and each payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by the Seller Agent on its books and, prior to any transfer of this Subordinated Note (this “Note”), endorsed by the Seller Agent on the schedule attached hereto or any continuation thereof. The books of the Seller Agent and such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to the Seller Agent on behalf of the Sellers by the Borrower; provided, that any failure of the Seller Agent to record a notation in its books or on the schedule to this Note as aforesaid or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Subordinated Loans in accordance with their respective terms set forth herein.

All capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement dated as of May 14, 2014 (as the same may be subsequently amended, restated or otherwise modified, the “Sale Agreement”) by and among the Borrower, the Sellers from time to time party thereto (the “Sellers”) and the Seller Agent. This Note is issued pursuant to the Sale Agreement and is the Subordinated Note referred to therein. All of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Sale Agreement and all other instruments evidencing the indebtedness hereunder, including the other Transaction Documents, are hereby made a part of this Note and are deemed incorporated herein in full.

The Borrower may at any time and from time to time voluntarily repay, in whole or in part, all Subordinated Loans made hereunder. Any amount so repaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed hereunder; provided, that all repayments of Subordinated Loans or any portion thereof shall be made together with payment of all interest accrued on the amount repaid to (but excluding) the date of such repayment.

The Borrower shall pay interest to the Seller Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Sellers, with respect to the outstanding amount of each Subordinated Loan made or maintained by each Seller during each Settlement Period, in arrears on each applicable Settlement Date. All computations of

 

  1   Amended and Restated Receivables Sale Agreement


interest shall be made by the Seller Agent on the basis of a 360 day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the Settlement Period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by the Seller Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error). The Borrower shall pay interest at the applicable Interest Rate on unpaid interest on any Subordinated Loan or any installment thereof, and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder (to the extent permitted by law) that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) for the period commencing on the due date thereof to (but excluding) the date the same is indefeasibly paid in full.

If any payment or prepayment on this Note becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the Interest Rate during such extension.

As set forth below, the indebtedness evidenced by this Subordinated Note is subordinate in right of payment to all Borrower Obligations and all renewals, extensions, refinancings or refundings of any such obligations (whether for principal, interest (including but not limited to interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceeding (each, an “Insolvency Proceeding”) whether or not such interest is allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, indemnities, repurchase price, expenses or otherwise) (collectively, the “Senior Obligations”). The subordination provisions contained herein are for the direct benefit of, and may be enforced by, any holder of a Senior Obligation, and may not be terminated, amended or otherwise revoked until the Senior Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Transaction Documents terminated in accordance with their respective terms. This Subordinated Note shall not be subject to any defense or any rights of set-off, including on account of any past or present debt. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event, neither the Seller Agent nor any Seller shall demand, accelerate, sue for, take, receive or accept from the Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or any other manner (including, without limitation, from or by way of collateral) any payment of or security for all or any part of the indebtedness under this Subordinated Note or exercise any remedies or take any action or proceeding to enforce the same. The Seller Agent, on behalf of each of the Sellers, hereby agrees that prior to the date that is one year and one day after all of the Senior Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Transaction Documents terminated in accordance with their respective terms, neither the Seller Agent nor any Seller will take any action to institute any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Borrower or which would be reasonably likely to cause the Borrower to be subject to, or seek the protection of, any such Insolvency Proceeding.

If the Borrower becomes subject to any Insolvency Proceeding, then the holders of the Senior Obligations shall receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or with respect to the Senior Obligations before the Seller Agent or any Seller shall be entitled to receive any payment on account of this Subordinated Note. Accordingly, any payment or distribution of assets of the Borrower of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, in any applicable Insolvency Proceeding, that would otherwise be payable to or deliverable upon or with respect to any or all indebtedness under this Subordinated Note, is hereby assigned to and shall be paid or delivered by the person making such payment or delivery (whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Administrative Agent for application to, or as collateral for the payment of, the Senior Obligations until such Senior Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash.

In no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of advancement of the proceeds hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Seller Agent, for the ratable

benefit of the Sellers, for the use, forbearance or detention of money advanced hereunder exceed the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”). In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Seller Agent or any Seller, as applicable, has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, that if at any time thereafter the amount of interest payable to Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, hereunder is less than the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, from the making of Subordinated Loans is equal to the total interest that Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, would have received had the amount of interest payable to Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the amount of interest payable from the Restatement Effective Date. Thereafter, the amount of interest payable hereunder shall be the amount determined in accordance with the terms hereof unless and until the amount so calculated again exceeds the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this paragraph shall again apply. In no event shall the total interest received by the Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the amount that Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. In the event the amount payable under the Maximum Lawful Rate is calculated pursuant to this paragraph, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the provisions of this Note, shall make a final determination that the Seller Agent, for the benefit of the Sellers, has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Seller Agent shall (and shall cause each Seller to), to the extent permitted by applicable law, promptly apply such excess first to any interest due and not yet paid hereunder, then to the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Loans, then to fees and any other unpaid charges, and thereafter shall refund any excess to the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise order.

Wherever possible each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or remaining provisions of this Note.

Time is of the essence of this Note. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Note.

BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE BORROWER HERETO WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS OR REMEDIES UNDER THIS NOTE, THE SALE AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.
