It is understood and agreed that the obligation of FCC to cure an FCC Purchase Event or purchase the Receivables Conveyed hereunder which are effected 20 by or related to such FCC Purchase Event shall (i) constitute the sole remedy against FCC with respect to such FCC Purchase Event available to the Purchaser, the Agent or the Lender or any assignee of any of the foregoing (except for indemnities, if applicable, provided for under Section 4.3(a) hereof or under the RLSA) and (ii) is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guaranty of the collectibility or payment of any Receivable which is not collected, not paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the related Obligor.
