1.4Interest Rates; Eurocurrency Rate Notification
The interest rate on an Investment in a Tranche denominated in U.S. Dollars or another Approved Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform.  Regulators have signalled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable Laws, may be permanently discontinued and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change.  The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market.  On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that:  immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published.  Each Party should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR.  Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, Section 2.13(b) (Benchmark Replacement), Section 2.13(c) (Flip Forward) and Section 2.13(d) (Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Seller, pursuant to Section 2.13(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Tranches is based.  However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.13(b) (Benchmark Replacement) and Section 2.13(d) (Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes) whether upon the occurrence 
63
    
949049213.2






of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.13(d) (Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurocurrency Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.  The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Seller.  The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Eurocurrency Rate, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Seller, any Purchaser or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.
2.AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASES
2.1The Purchases
(a)On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Seller hereby agrees to sell and assign and hereby sells, assigns and transfers to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase and accept and hereby purchases and accepts from the Seller, a pro rata share (calculated as such Purchaser’s Invested Amount as a percentage of the Aggregate Invested Amount) in all Portfolio Receivables, together with all Related Security and Collections and all proceeds of or payments in respect of any and all of the foregoing, in each case existing on the date of the initial Incremental Investment hereunder or thereafter arising and acquired by the Seller from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date (in the aggregate, the “Portfolio”).  For administrative convenience, the Purchasers have appointed the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8 to take actions hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents with respect to the Portfolio on behalf of the Purchasers in each Purchaser Group in accordance with the respective portions of the Portfolio funded by that Purchaser Group from time to time.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall have no right, title or interest in the Portfolio but shall act as an agent on behalf of the Purchasers with respect to the Portfolio for the benefit of each individual Purchaser in accordance to such Purchaser’s pro rata share, calculated as such Purchaser’s Invested Amount as a percentage of the Aggregate Invested Amount.  
(b)On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof (including Section 3 (Conditions of Purchases)), on the Initial Purchase Date and thereafter from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date, each Conduit Purchaser may in its sole discretion and each Committed Purchaser shall, if the Conduit 
64
    
949049213.2






Purchaser in its related Purchaser Group elects not to do so, make Incremental Investments in the Portfolio to purchase Receivables and all Related Security and Collections, in an amount in any Approved Currency specified by the Seller (or the Master Servicer on behalf of the Seller) in accordance with Section 2.2(a), for each Purchaser Group, equal to its Purchaser Group Percentage of each Incremental Investment requested by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.2 (Purchase procedures); provided that, after giving effect to such Incremental Investments:
(i)the aggregate Invested Amount for any Purchaser Group shall not exceed its Purchaser Group Limit; and
(ii)the Aggregate Invested Amount shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Facility Limit and (B) the Funding Base.
(c)The foregoing sale, assignment and transfer does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation, or an assumption by the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser, of any obligation of the Seller, any Originator, the Master Servicer or any other Person under or in connection with the Portfolio, all of which shall remain the obligations and liabilities of the Seller and the Master Servicer, as applicable.
(d)The Seller, the Agents and the Purchasers intend that the sale, assignment and transfer of the Portfolio to the Purchasers hereunder shall be treated as a sale for all purposes, other than tax purposes as further described below.  If, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such sale, assignment and transfer of the Portfolio to the Purchasers is not treated as a sale for all purposes, other than tax purposes as further described below, such sale, assignment and transfer of the Portfolio shall be treated as the grant of, and the Seller hereby does grant, a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under (i) the Portfolio, (ii) all Transaction Documents, all Related Security and all Account Security Agreements, (iii) all other Collateral and (iv) all accounts, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, securities, financial assets, investment property, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, documents, goods and letter-of-credit rights, supporting obligations, securities entitlements (in each case as defined in the UCC) and any and all other personal property and assets of any type or nature in which it has an interest, and all proceeds of the foregoing, in each case, to secure the payment and performance of the Seller’s obligations to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Purchasers) and the other Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents or as may be determined in connection therewith by applicable Law.  For all federal, and applicable state and local, income and franchise tax purposes, the Seller and the Agents agree, and each Purchaser by acquiring an Investment agrees, to treat and report each Investment as indebtedness issued by the Seller.  The parties hereto agree that each Investment shall be due and payable to the holder thereof on each Settlement Date.  Each Conduit Purchaser that is a U.S. Person, or that otherwise is subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net basis, which is funding all or any portion of its Investment by the issuance of Commercial Paper in an 
65
    
949049213.2






Approved Currency other than U.S. Dollars shall match fund such Commercial Paper (and any related hedging arrangements) to correspond to each Tranche Period.  
On each Settlement Date prior to the Facility Termination Date (upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof), each Conduit Purchaser may make a Settlement Date Investment in respect of its then-current outstanding Investment (and, to the extent such Conduit Purchaser decides not to make a Settlement Date Investment, its related Committed Purchasers shall make such Settlement Date Investment) in an amount equal to (and in repayment of) all then-current outstanding Investments (it being understood and agreed by the parties hereto that each such Settlement Date Investment shall constitute a new Investment by the relevant Purchaser hereunder).  If the Aggregate Invested Amount is to decrease on a Settlement Date, each Settlement Date Investment made by the Purchasers on such date shall be reduced by their respective pro rata shares of the reduced Aggregate Invested Amount (and the reduction in the Aggregate Invested Amount shall be paid to the applicable Purchasers in the relevant Approved Currency in accordance with Section 2.6(f) hereof).  If the Aggregate Invested Amount is to increase on a Settlement Date, each Settlement Date Investment by the Purchasers made on such date shall be increased by their respective pro rata shares of the increased Aggregate Invested Amount (i.e., through an Incremental Investment in accordance with the terms hereof).  The Settlement Date Investments, any reductions in the Aggregate Invested Amount and any Incremental Investment shall all be set forth in a single Investment Request with respect to each Settlement Date, which Investment Request shall be delivered for each Settlement Date, regardless of whether the Aggregate Invested Amount is changing on such Settlement Date.
(e)If there is more than one Committed Purchaser in a Purchaser Group, each such Committed Purchaser shall purchase its Pro Rata Share of such Purchaser Group’s Purchaser Group Percentage of each Investment, to the extent not purchased by the related Conduit Purchaser.  In the event that one or more of such Committed Purchasers in any such Purchaser Group fails to purchase such Pro Rata Share as required hereunder, each of the other non-defaulting Committed Purchasers in such Purchaser Group shall purchase their Pro Rata Share (calculated without giving effect to such defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Commitment) of such Purchaser Group’s Purchaser Group Percentage of such Investment subject to the other terms and conditions hereof (including Section 2.2(c)(iii) (Committed Purchaser’s Commitment)).
(f)Each Incremental Investment in the Portfolio hereunder shall be in a minimum Invested Amount equal to such amount as will ensure that after giving effect to such Incremental Investment (A) no Purchaser Group’s Purchaser Group Percentage of the Aggregate Invested Amount (including the Dollar Equivalent of all Investments to be made on the applicable Investment Date in each Approved Currency) would be less than $10,000,000 and (B) each Purchaser Group’s Purchaser Group Percentage of the Aggregate Invested Amount would be an integral multiple of $100,000 or, in the case of any 
66
    
949049213.2






Investment denominated in a Local Currency, 100,000 units of such Local Currency.

(a)Investment Request.
(i)The Seller shall request an Incremental Investment hereunder by submitting (or causing the Master Servicer to execute and submit on behalf of the Seller) to the Administrative Agent a written notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (Form of Investment Request) (each, an “Investment Request”), prior to 11 a.m. (London time) on any Monthly Reporting Date (and the Administrative Agent shall forward such Investment Request to each Purchaser Agent by 12:00 noon (London time) on the same Business Day), requesting an Incremental Investment on the immediately following Settlement Date (each, an “Investment Date”), or such other times agreed upon by the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Agents.
(ii)Each Investment Request shall, among other things (A) specify (I) the desired Approved Currencies for the requested Incremental Investment, determined in accordance with Section 2.2(e), (II) for each such Approved Currency, the amount of the requested Incremental Investment and the Spot Rate used in determining the Dollar Equivalent thereof, and (III) the Aggregate Invested Amount after giving effect to such Incremental Investment and (B) certify that, after giving effect to the proposed Incremental Investment, the Aggregate Invested Amount shall not exceed the lesser of (x) the Facility Limit and (y) the Funding Base.  Each Investment Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Seller.
(b)Conduit Purchaser Acceptance or Rejection.
Each Purchaser Agent will promptly notify its related Conduit Purchasers of its receipt of any Investment Request.  If a Conduit Purchaser rejects an Investment Request, the related Purchaser Agent shall promptly notify the related Committed Purchasers of such rejection.
(c)Committed Purchaser’s Commitment.
(i)If a Conduit Purchaser rejects an Investment Request, any Incremental Investment requested by the Seller in such Investment Request that would otherwise be made by such Conduit Purchaser shall be made by the related Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of such Incremental Investment.  
(ii)The obligations of any Committed Purchaser to make Incremental Investments hereunder are several from the obligations of any other Committed Purchasers (whether or not in the same Purchaser Group).  
67
    
949049213.2






The failure of any Committed Purchaser to make Incremental Investments hereunder shall not release the obligations of any other Committed Purchaser (whether or not in the same Purchaser Group) to make Incremental Investments hereunder, but no Committed Purchaser shall be responsible for the failure of any other Committed Purchaser to make any Incremental Investment hereunder other than as described in Section 2.1(e) (The Purchases).
(iii)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Committed Purchaser shall not be obligated to fund any Incremental Investment at any time on or after the Facility Termination Date, at any time a Facility Event exists or would exist after making such Incremental Investment, or if, after giving effect thereto, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding Invested Amount of the Incremental Investment funded by such Committed Purchaser hereunder would exceed an amount equal to (A) such Committed Purchaser’s Commitment less (B) the Dollar Equivalent of such Committed Purchaser’s ratable share of the aggregate outstanding Invested Amount held by the Conduit Purchaser in such Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group.
(d)Disbursement of Funds.
On each Investment Date, each applicable Purchaser shall remit its share of the aggregate amount of the Incremental Investment requested by the Seller as determined above to the applicable Seller Operating Account specified therefor by (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies by wire transfer of same day funds.  Upon receipt of such funds by such deadline, the Administrative Agent shall remit such funds by (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies to the account specified by the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) in the relevant Investment Request by wire transfer of same day funds (it being understood that if funds are not deposited by the applicable Purchasers by (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies, the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) remit such funds by (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies.  To the extent (i) the Administrative Agent remits any funds at the direction of the Seller or Master Servicer and any applicable Purchaser shall fail to remit its share of the aggregate amount of the Incremental Investment requested by the Seller as determined above within the timeframe set forth above, (ii) the Administrative Agent fails to remit any funds as required by the timeframe set forth above or as required by the timeframe set forth in Section 2.9(a) or (iii) any Purchaser shall fail to remit its share of any Incremental Advance by the timeframe set forth above, interest thereon shall be payable by the applicable late Person and accrue for the benefit of the applicable recipient on such amounts at the Default Rate.

949049213.2






(e)Denomination of Investments.
Each Incremental Investment made by the Purchasers hereunder shall be denominated in an Approved Currency.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller may request an Incremental Investment denominated in U.S. Dollars or Euros, regardless of the Currency Percentage for such currency, if each Purchaser Agent has consented thereto and hedging agreements or hedging reserves satisfactory to the Purchaser Agents have been implemented with respect thereto.
(f)Redenomination of Local Currencies.
(i)Each obligation of any party to this Agreement to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation).  If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of yield expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London Interbank Market for the basis of accrual of yield in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Investment in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Investment, at the end of the then current Tranche Period.
(ii)Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any EMU Legislation and (A) without limiting the liability of the Seller for any amount due under this Agreement and (B) without increasing any Commitment of any Committed Purchaser, all references in this Agreement to minimum amounts (or integral multiples thereof) denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date shall, immediately upon such adoption, be replaced by references to such minimum amounts (or integral multiples thereof) as shall be specified herein with respect to Investments denominated in Euro.

The Seller shall use the proceeds of the Investments only to (a) pay the Purchase Price for Receivables, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Originator Sale Agreements and Intermediate Transfer Agreements, (b) refinance Investments denominated in one Approved Currency with Investments denominated in another Approved Currency for the purpose of satisfying the requirements set forth in Section 2.2(e) (Denomination of Investments) and (c) pay transaction fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (with such fees, costs and expenses reflected in the applicable Discount Percentage deducted under the applicable Originator Sale Agreements); provided that, notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the Seller shall not use all or any portion of the proceeds of any Incremental Investment to pay the Purchase Price for any Receivable (i) to the extent Weekly Reports are then required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.3 (Reporting requirements) of the Servicing Agreement, if a Weekly Report has not been delivered on such day pursuant to and in accordance with such Section 2.3, or (ii) that was originated by an Originator with respect to which a Seller Event has occurred and is continuing.
2.4Yield and Fees
(a)On each Settlement Date and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.9(a), the Seller shall pay (in immediately available funds in the currency of such Tranche) to the Administrative Agent (for transfer by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Purchaser Agent, for the account of the Purchasers in such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group), all Yield that is due and owing on such Settlement Date (i.e., for all Tranche Periods ending on such Settlement Date) with respect to all outstanding Tranches.  
(b)The Seller shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for transfer to the applicable recipient) certain Fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in (i) the fee agreement of even date herewith between the Seller, the Performance Undertaking Provider and the Administrative Agent (including any replacement thereof, the “Administrative Agent Fee Letter”) and (ii) the fee agreement of even date herewith between the Seller, the Performance Undertaking Provider, the Administrative Agent and the Purchaser Agents (including any replacement thereof, the “Purchaser Agent Fee Letter”).
(c)On the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before each Reporting Date each Purchaser Agent shall furnish the Seller and the Master Servicer with an invoice setting forth the amount of the Yield and Fees that are due and owing on the immediately succeeding Settlement Date for such Tranche Period with respect to the Tranches held by the Purchaser(s) in such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group.  To the extent necessary, such Yield shall be calculated using an estimate of the Yield Rate for the remaining days in such Tranche Period; provided that such Yield shall be adjusted as follows: if the Purchaser Agent shall have used an estimate of the Yield Rate with respect to the preceding Tranche Period, the Purchaser Agent shall compute the actual Yield 
70
    
949049213.2






Rate and Yield for such Tranche Period and (i) if the actual Yield so computed is greater than the estimated Yield calculated for such preceding Tranche Period, the Yield calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence for the current Tranche Period shall be increased by the amount of such difference, and (ii) if the actual Yield so computed is less than the estimated Yield for such preceding Tranche Period, the Yield calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence for the current Tranche Period shall be decreased by the amount of such difference.

Collections received by the Master Servicer prior to the Facility Termination Date in excess of amounts to be reinvested shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.6(e).  Prior to the Facility Termination Date, Collections for such Reinvestment or application pursuant to Section 2.6(e) may be transferred by the Master Servicer directly from the Collection 
71
    
949049213.2






Accounts to an account designated by the Master Servicer and applied to pay the Purchase Price, Deferred RPA Purchase Price or Advanced Purchase Price for Receivables under the Originator Sale Agreements and Intermediate Transfer Agreements or for the payment of other amounts described in Section 2.6(e).
(b)    Prior to the Final Payout Date, until the Aggregate DPP has been paid in full, the Subordinated Lender, pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement, shall make available to the Seller a Subordinated Loan in an amount equal to the Aggregate DPP determined in accordance with Section 2.19(a) (Proceeds of Subordinated Loans).  Each amount allocated and paid to reduce the Subordinated Loan hereunder shall constitute a payment of a corresponding amount of the Aggregate DPP hereunder.
(ii)Prior to the Final Payout Date, the Aggregate DPP shall only be paid to the extent funds are available for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.6(j)(iii) or Section 2.7(d).  On each Business Day on and after the Final Payout Date until the date the Aggregate DPP is paid in full, the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, shall pay to the Seller, in repayment of the Aggregate DPP, all Collections thereafter received less any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee, which shall be retained by the Master Servicer.  
(iii)The Aggregate DPP shall be payable solely from Collections available therefor at the times and in the manner provided herein.
(iv)Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all Collections which are allocated to the payment of any Deferred Purchase Price (and the Aggregate DPP) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the “DPP Collections”) (A) shall be set aside and held in trust by the Master Servicer for the benefit of the Seller and shall be paid by the Master Servicer only to the Seller (or as the Seller otherwise directs) in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.6 (Collections prior to Facility Termination Date) and Section 2.7 (Collections after Facility Termination Date), and (B) shall not constitute an asset of the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers or be available to satisfy the claims of any of their respective creditors.  In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser receives any payment or distribution hereunder out of the DPP Collections which, pursuant to the terms hereof, should be allocated to the payment of the Deferred Purchase Price, such party shall, and the Purchasers hereby direct and authorize the Administrative Agent to, pay such amount to the Seller in repayment of the Deferred Purchase Price.
(c)Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the Purchaser Agents, the Purchasers and the Administrative Agent shall not, and shall not be obligated (whether on 
72
    
949049213.2






behalf of the Purchaser Agent, a Purchaser or otherwise) to, pay any amount to the Seller as a Reinvestment or in respect of any portion of the Aggregate DPP, except to the extent of Collections on Receivables available for distribution to the Seller in accordance with this Agreement.  In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any obligations of the Conduit Purchasers under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents shall be payable by such Conduit Purchaser solely to the extent of funds received from the Seller in accordance herewith or from any party to any Transaction Document in accordance with the terms thereof in excess of funds necessary to pay such Person’s matured and maturing commercial paper or other senior indebtedness (it being acknowledged and agreed by the Conduit Purchasers that the DPP Collections shall only be applied to repay the Aggregate DPP and shall not be applied to pay such Person’s matured and maturing commercial paper or other senior indebtedness).  Any amount which the Administrative Agent, a Purchaser Agent or a Purchaser is not obligated to pay pursuant to the two preceding sentences shall not constitute a claim (as defined in § 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) against, or corporate obligation of, the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agent or Purchaser, as applicable, for any such insufficiency unless and until such amount becomes available for distribution to the Seller pursuant to the terms hereof.
(d)On each Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) cause:
(i)all Collections and other amounts in respect of the Portfolio Receivables, the Related Security or the Collateral to be deposited directly into a Collection Account; and 
(ii)all Collections otherwise received directly by any Transaction Party in respect of the Portfolio Receivables, the Related Security or the Collateral to be deposited into a Collection Account no later than the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following the day on which such amounts were received and identified;
(e)On each Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date, subject to the provisions of Section 11.1, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) cause all Collections received in the Collection Accounts (including, if applicable, any investment earnings received with respect to funds on deposit in such Collection Accounts) to be applied to the following items (as determined by the Master Servicer in its discretion):
(i)to be retained in one or more Collection Accounts for the benefit of the Master Servicer (to be distributed to the Master Servicer on the following Settlement Date), an amount equal to the aggregate Servicing Fee that will be due and owing on the following Settlement Date;
73
    
949049213.2






(ii)for deposit to the Seller Operating Account for the benefit of the relevant Persons, an amount equal to the aggregate Yield and Fees that will be due and owing on the following Settlement Date;
(iii)to pay operating costs, expenses, Agreed Annual Income and taxes of the Seller then due and payable, as instructed by the Seller; provided that the aggregate amount so paid during any calendar year shall not exceed EUR 100,000; 
(iv)to pay to the Master Servicer, for the benefit of the applicable Italian Originators, an amount equal to any unreimbursed RIBA Advances;
(v)if as determined by reference to the most recent Portfolio Report delivered under the Servicing Agreement the Aggregate Invested Amount exceeds the lesser of (A) the Facility Limit and (B) the Funding Base, for deposit to the applicable Seller Operating Account an amount necessary to cause the Aggregate Invested Amount to be less than or equal to the lesser of (x) the Facility Limit and (y) the Funding Base, as applicable; and
(vi)to remit any remaining Collections to the Seller for application in accordance with Section 2.6(j) below (any such remittance, a “Release”); provided that, if the conditions precedent for such Release set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions precedent to all Incremental Investments, Reinvestments and Releases) are not satisfied, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) cause any such remaining Collections to be retained in the applicable Seller Operating Accounts and shall apply such Collections in accordance with this Section 2.6 or Section 2.7 (Collections after Facility Termination Date) on the next Business Day.
(f)On each Settlement Date, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) pay the following amounts in the following order of priority from amounts on deposit in the Seller Operating Accounts:

(ii)to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers), the Fees that are due and owing on such Settlement Date;
(iii)to the Master Servicer, the Servicing Fee that is due and owing on such Settlement Date (to the extent not paid from Collections retained in the Collection Accounts in accordance with Section 2.6(e)(i));
(iv)to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers) an amount in reduction of the Aggregate Invested Amount (ratably in accordance with the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding Invested Amounts of each) equal to the excess of the Aggregate Invested 
74
    
949049213.2






Amount over the lesser of (A) the Facility Limit and (B) the Funding Base; and
(v)if any Transaction Party Obligations (other than any amount described in Sections 2.6(f)(i) and (ii)) are then due and payable by the Seller to any Secured Party, pay to each such Secured Party (ratably in accordance with the amounts owing to each) the Transaction Party Obligations so due and payable (in the currency in which such Transaction Party Obligations are payable).
(g)To the extent practicable, the Master Servicer shall cause all Collections applied pursuant to Section 2.6(e) in respect of any Transaction Party Obligations to be denominated in the same currency in which such Transaction Party Obligations are payable.  To the extent that Transaction Party Obligations payable or to become payable in any currency exceed the amount of Collections in that currency and available for such payment, and Collections in any other currency are available for such payment, the Master Servicer shall allocate such other Collections to the payment of such Transaction Party Obligations, and on the relevant payment date the Master Servicer shall cause such other Collections to be converted into the relevant currency of payment in accordance with Section 2.16 (Conversion of Currencies) and shall apply the amounts so converted to the making of such payment.
(h)In the event any deposit is made to a Seller Operating Account pursuant to Section 2.6(e)(v), the amount of such deposit shall be allocated among all Purchaser Groups ratably in proportion to the aggregate Invested Amount in respect of the Investments held by each and distributed on the next Settlement Date for application to the repayment of the Investments held by such Purchaser Group.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Business Day after such deposit is made and prior to the distribution of such deposit pursuant to this Section 2.6(h), the Master Servicer delivers a Portfolio Report with more recent data indicating that the Aggregate Invested Amount is less than or equal to the lesser of (i) the Facility Limit and (ii) the Funding Base, the Seller may (or may cause the Master Servicer to) withdraw the Collections so deposited for application in accordance with Section 2.6(e)(v) to the extent that, after giving effect to such withdrawal and application, the Aggregate Invested Amount is less than or equal to the lesser of (i) the Facility Limit and (ii) the Funding Base.
(i)[Reserved.]
(j)Any Collections remitted to the Seller pursuant to Section 2.6(e)(vi) shall be applied by the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Seller:
(i)first, if so requested by the Master Servicer (acting on behalf of the Seller), to pay or prepay (or set aside for the payment or prepayment of) Investments or other Transaction Party Obligations that are then due and payable;
75

(ii)second, to pay the Purchase Price, Deferred RPA Purchase Price or Advanced Purchase Price for Receivables pursuant to (and in accordance with) the Originator Sale Agreements or Intermediate Transfer Agreements, as the case may be (provided that, notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the Seller shall not use all or any portion of the proceeds of any Release to pay the purchase price for any Receivable that was originated by an Originator with respect to which a Seller Termination Event has occurred and is continuing); and
(iii)third, (A) prior to the Final Payout Date, only if no Facility Event or Portfolio Event then exists, or (B) after the Final Payout Date has occurred, to make payments pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement (such amount to be allocated among the Subordinated Lenders ratably in accordance with the proportion of such amounts owing to each such Person); provided that unless such date is a Settlement Date, the aggregate amount of payments made pursuant to this clause (iii) since the prior Settlement Date shall not exceed the amount of Subordinated Loans borrowed by the Seller since the prior Settlement Date (excluded).
2.7Collections after Facility Termination Date
(a)On the Facility Termination Date, and on each Business Day thereafter until the Final Payout Date, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) cause:

(B)all operating costs, expenses, Agreed Annual Income and taxes of the Seller then due and payable, as instructed by the Seller; provided that the aggregate amount so paid during any calendar year pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(i)(B), when combined with the aggregate amount paid during such calendar year pursuant to Section 2.6(e)(iii), shall not exceed EUR 100,000;
(C)to the Master Servicer, for the benefit of the applicable Italian Originators, an amount equal to any unreimbursed RIBA Advances;

949049213.2






(viii)eighth, after all Transaction Party Obligations are paid in full, to pay to the Seller any remaining Collections for application in accordance with Section 2.7(d).
(c)To the extent practicable, the Seller (or the Administrative Agent acting on behalf of the Seller) shall apply Seller Operating Account Funds denominated in a currency to the payment of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.7(b) in the same currency.  To the extent that aggregate amounts payable or to become payable in any currency exceed the amount of Seller Operating Account Funds denominated in that currency and available for such payment, and Seller Operating Account Funds denominated in any other currency are available for such payment, the Seller shall allocate such other Seller Operating Account Funds to the payment of such amount, and on the relevant payment date the Seller (or the Administrative Agent acting on behalf of the Seller) shall cause such other Seller Operating Account Funds to be converted into the relevant currency of payment using commercially reasonable methods and shall apply the amounts so converted to the making of such payment.
(d)Any Collections remitted to the Seller pursuant to Section 2.7(b)(viii) shall be applied by the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Seller, to make payments pursuant to the Subordinated Loan Agreement (such amount to be allocated among the Subordinated Lenders ratably in accordance with the proportion of such amounts owing to each such Person).
2.8Deemed Collections; application of payments
(a)Each of the parties hereto agrees that, unless otherwise required by contract or applicable Law or clearly indicated by facts or circumstances or unless an Obligor designates that a payment be applied to a specific Receivable, all Collections from an Obligor shall be applied in the order of maturity of the Receivables of such Obligor starting with the Receivable of such Obligor having the earliest maturity date (whether or not such Receivables are Portfolio Receivables).
(b)If and to the extent the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent, any Purchaser or any Indemnified Party shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor, any Transaction Party or any other Person (other than in accordance herewith) any amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, the Administrative Agent, such Purchaser Agent, such Purchaser or such Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.
(c)If on any day a Portfolio Receivable or any part thereof becomes a Diluted Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Portfolio Receivable in the amount of such Diluted Receivable or part thereof.
78
    
949049213.2






(d)If on any day it is determined that any of the representations or warranties in Section 4.1 (Representations and warranties of the Seller) was untrue with respect to a Portfolio Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Portfolio Receivable in an amount equal to the Unpaid Balance thereof.
(e)If on any day a RIBA Dilution occurs, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection in the amount of such RIBA Dilution.
(f)Not later than the Settlement Date related to the Calculation Period in which such Collection is deemed to have been received pursuant to this Section 2.8 (and if a Facility Event or Portfolio Event has occurred and is continuing, not later than the second (2nd) Local Business Day after a Responsible Officer of the Master Servicer is notified in writing or otherwise becomes aware that the Seller has been deemed pursuant to this Section 2.8 to have received a Deemed Collection), the Seller shall deposit in a Seller Operating Account, in same day funds, the amount of such Deemed Collection; provided that prior to the occurrence of a Facility Event or Portfolio Event the amount so payable by the Seller shall not exceed the amount (if any) required (after giving effect to any Deemed Collection to be paid by any other Transaction Party on such day) in order to cause the Aggregate Invested Amount to be less than or equal to the lesser of (x) the Facility Limit and (y) the Funding Base.  Any such amount shall be applied as a Collection in accordance with Sections 2.6 (Collections prior to Facility Termination Date) or 2.7 (Collections after Facility Termination Date), as applicable.
2.9Payments and computations, etc.
(a)All amounts to be paid by the Seller or the Master Servicer to the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent, any Purchaser or any other Secured Party shall be paid no later than (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies on the day when due in immediately available funds (without counterclaim, setoff, deduction, defense, abatement, suspension or deferment) to the applicable Seller Operating Account (or other account specified by the Administrative Agent from time to time).  It is understood and agreed that payments by the Seller to the Purchaser or Purchaser Agents shall be made by the Seller depositing such payments into the applicable Seller Operating Account and the Administrative Agent remitting such amounts from such accounts to the applicable Purchasers or Purchaser Agents.  The Administrative Agent shall forward any amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any other Person (including without limitation under Sections 2.6(f) and 2.7) to the applicable Person by (i) 4:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies in immediately available funds.

79
    
949049213.2






amounts in U.S. Dollars and CAD or (ii) 3:00 p.m. (London time) for amounts in other Approved Currencies on the date when due.
(b)The Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to), to the extent permitted by Law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it when due hereunder (after as well as before judgment), at an interest rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, payable on demand.
(c)All computations of Yield, Fees and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the date of payment) elapsed, except that (i) [Reserved], (ii) computations of interest and Yield accruing at the Eurocurrency Rate by reference to CDOR with respect to any amount denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366, as applicable), and (iii) in any case where the practice of the relevant interbank market differs, computations of interest and Yield shall be made in accordance with that market practice. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.  Any computations by the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser Agent of amounts payable by the Seller hereunder shall be binding upon the Seller absent manifest error.
(d)All payments required to be made hereunder to any Purchaser, any Purchaser Agent, any Indemnified Party or any other Secured Party shall be made by paying such amount to the applicable account specified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (and the Administrative Agent, in turn, shall transfer such amounts to the applicable Purchaser Agent’s Account) in accordance with this Section 2.9.  Upon receipt of funds, the Purchaser Agent shall pay such funds to the related Person owed such funds in accordance with the records maintained by the Purchaser Agent.  If the applicable Purchaser Agent shall have paid to any Purchaser, the Purchaser Agent, any Indemnified Party or any other Secured Party any funds that (i) must be returned for any reason (including any Event of Bankruptcy) or (ii) exceeds that which such Person was entitled to receive, such amount shall be promptly repaid to the Purchaser Agent by such Person.
(e)All payments of Invested Amounts and Yield in respect of any Tranche shall be made in the same Approved Currency as the Approved Currency in which such Tranche is denominated.  All other payments to be made by the Master Servicer or the Seller hereunder shall be made solely in U.S. Dollars or Euros (as specified in the applicable invoice or request for payment) or in any other Approved Currency subject to an agreement between the relevant parties of the applicable exchange rate.
(f)It is understood and agreed that if a Purchaser is required to deposit funds into a Seller Operating Account on a particular date and is also scheduled to receive payment from such Seller Operating Account on such date in the same 
80
    
949049213.2






currency, such Purchaser may net such payments if such Purchaser has given prior notice of such netting to the Administrative Agent.
2.10Tranches
Each Investment made by the Purchasers in the same Purchaser Group on any Investment Date shall be allocated to one or more Tranche Periods as set forth in the definition of such term with one or more Rate Types as selected by the applicable Purchaser Agent.  Any portion of an Investment having one Tranche Period and one Rate Type and denominated in the same Approved Currency is referred to herein as a “Tranche”.  Either the Master Servicer (acting on behalf of the Seller) or (following a Facility Termination Event or Portfolio Event) the Purchaser Agent for each Purchaser Group may, upon notice to the other party received at least four Business Days prior to the last day of any Tranche Period in the case of the Seller giving notice, or up to the last day of such Tranche Period in the case of the Purchaser Agent giving notice, either (a) divide any Tranche originating on such last day or having a Tranche Period ending on such last day into two or more Tranches having an aggregate Invested Amount equal to the Invested Amount of such divided Tranche or (b) combine any two or more Tranches originating on such last day or having Tranche Periods ending on such last day into a single Tranche having an Invested Amount equal to the aggregate of the Invested Amount of such Tranches; provided that no Tranche owned by any Conduit Purchaser may be combined with a Tranche owned by any other Purchaser, a Tranche held by the Committed Purchasers in any Purchaser Group may not be combined with any Tranche held by the Committed Purchasers in any other Purchaser Group and a Tranche denominated in one Approved Currency may not be combined with a Tranche denominated in another Approved Currency.
2.11Breakage costs
(a)The Seller shall indemnify the Purchasers, the Agents and any related Program Support Provider against any loss, cost or expense incurred by the Purchasers, the Agents or such Program Support Providers, either directly or indirectly, as a result of the failure by the Seller to make any Investment for any reason on the date specified by the Seller pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 2.2 (Purchase procedures), including any loss, cost, loss of profit or expense incurred by any Agent, any Purchaser or any Program Support Provider by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of funds acquired by the Purchasers (including funds obtained by issuing Commercial Paper, obtaining deposits as loans from third parties and reemployment of funds) to fund such Investment and any costs incurred in connection with the termination or reduction of any related Currency Hedge Agreements.  Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the Liquidation Fee.
(b)The Seller further agrees to pay all Liquidation Fees associated with a reduction of the Invested Amount in respect of any Tranche at any time.
(c)A certificate as to any loss, expense or Liquidation Fees payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 submitted by any Purchaser, through its Purchaser Agent, to the Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

949049213.2






2.12Illegality
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the adoption of or any change in any Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any relevant Official Body shall make it unlawful, or any Official Body asserts it is unlawful, for any Purchaser to make or maintain Tranches for which Yield is calculated by reference to the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate (each a “Eurocurrency Tranche”) as contemplated by this Agreement or to obtain in the interbank Eurocurrency market the funds with which to make or maintain any such Eurocurrency Tranche (a) such Purchaser shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, its Purchaser Agent, the Master Servicer and the Seller thereof, (b) the obligation of such Purchaser to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Tranches or continue Eurocurrency Tranches as such shall forthwith be cancelled and (c) such Purchaser’s Tranches then outstanding as Eurocurrency Tranches, if any, shall be converted on the last day of the Tranche Period for such Tranches or within such earlier period as required by Law into a Tranche that accrues Yield based on an Alternate Rate for such Tranche Period equal to a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Base Rate in effect from time to time during such Tranche Period plus (ii) 2.0% per annum (each a “Base Rate Tranche”).
2.13Alternate Rate of Interest
(a)Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.13, if prior to the commencement of any Tranche Period for a Eurocurrency Tranche:
(i)the applicable Purchaser Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining on a timely basis the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for such Tranche Period; or
(ii)the applicable Purchaser Agent determines that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for such Tranche Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the applicable Purchasers of making or maintaining the related Tranche for such Tranche Period;
then, such Purchaser Agent shall give notice thereof to the Seller, the Master Servicer and each other Purchaser Agent by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Investment Request that requests the conversion of any Tranche to, or continuation of any Tranche as, a Eurocurrency Tranche shall be ineffective, and (y) such Investment shall be made as a Base Rate Tranche based on an Alternate Rate for such Tranche Period equal to a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time during such Tranche Period plus (B) 2.0% per annum; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Rate Type of Investments, then all other Rate Types of Investments shall be permitted.  Furthermore, if any Investment in a Eurocurrency Tranche in any Approved Currency is outstanding on the date of the Seller’s receipt of the 
82
    
949049213.2






notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.13(a) with respect to the applicable rate applicable to such Investment in a Eurocurrency Tranche, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Seller and the Purchasers that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then on the last day of the Tranche Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Tranche (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Investment shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an Investment in a Base Rate Tranche on such day based on an Alternate Rate for such Tranche Period equal to a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time during such Tranche Period plus (B) 2.0% per annum.
(b)Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to U.S. Dollars for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Approved Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Purchaser Agents without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Required Committed Purchasers.
(c)Flip Forward.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, with respect to Investments in a Tranche denominated in U.S. Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that, this Section 2.13(c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Purchaser Agents and the Seller a 
83
    
949049213.2






Term SOFR Notice.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.  For the avoidance of doubt, any applicable provisions set forth in this Section 2.13 shall apply with respect to any Term SOFR transition pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) as if such forward-looking term rate was initially determined in accordance herewith including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in Section 2.13(d) (Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes) and Section 1.4 (Interest Rates; Eurocurrency Rate Notification).
(d)Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
(e)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Seller and each Purchaser of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) pursuant to this Section 2.13, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.13
(f)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or Eurocurrency Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of 
84
    
949049213.2






“Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Tranche Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(g)Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Upon the Seller’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Seller may revoke any request to fund an Investment in a Eurocurrency Tranche during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Seller will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an Investment in a Base Rate Tranche in the applicable Approved Currency based on an Alternate Rate for such Tranche Period equal to a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time during such Tranche Period plus (B) 2.0% per annum.  During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Investment in a Eurocurrency Tranche in any Approved Currency is outstanding on the date of the Seller’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Approved Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.13, then on the last day of the Tranche Period applicable to such Investment (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Investment shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an Investment in a Base Rate Tranche in the applicable Approved Currency on such day based on an Alternate Rate for such Tranche Period equal to a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time during such Tranche Period plus (B) 2.0% per annum.
2.14Indemnity for reserves and expenses
(a)If any Change in Law shall:
(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Indemnified Party (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate); or
(ii)impose on any Indemnified Party (or on the U.S. market for certificates of deposit or the London interbank market) any other condition or expense affecting or with respect to this Agreement, any Program Support Agreement or any other Transaction Document or Eurocurrency Tranches made or maintained by such Indemnified Party 
85
    
949049213.2






(except those for which payment has been made pursuant to Section 2.15 (Indemnity for Taxes)) or the maintenance or financing of the Investments hereunder, directly or indirectly, or under any Program Support Agreement;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Indemnified Party of making or maintaining any Tranche (or of maintaining its obligation to fund any such Tranche or its obligations under any Program Support Agreement) by an amount that such Indemnified Party deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Indemnified Party hereunder (whether of principal, yield or otherwise), then on the tenth (10th) day immediately following notification thereof pursuant to Section 2.14(d) the Seller will pay to such Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements, regulations and legislation and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by the United States, the European Union or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder, are deemed to have been introduced or adopted after the Amendment and Restatement Effective Date, regardless of the date enacted or adopted.
(b)If any Indemnified Party determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Indemnified Party’s capital or on the capital of such Indemnified Party’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, any Program Support Agreement or the Investments made or acquired by such Indemnified Party, to a level below that which such Indemnified Party or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Indemnified Party’s policies and the policies of such Indemnified Party’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount that such Indemnified Party deems to be material, then on the tenth (10th) day immediately following notification thereof pursuant to Section 2.14(d) the Seller will pay to such Indemnified Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified Party’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided, that the Seller shall not be required to compensate an Indemnified Party pursuant to this paragraph for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Indemnified Party notifies the Seller and the Master Servicer of such Indemnified Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided, further, that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.
(c)A certificate of an Indemnified Party setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Indemnified Party or its holding company, as 
86
    
949049213.2






applicable, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Seller and the Master Servicer and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)Promptly after any Indemnified Party has determined that it will make a request for compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Seller and the Master Servicer of such determination.  Except as otherwise provided in clause (b) of this Section 2.14, failure or delay on the part of any Indemnified Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Indemnified Party’s right to demand such compensation.
(e)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.14 to the contrary, the Seller shall not be required to pay to any Indemnified Party any amount pursuant to this Section 2.14 to the extent (i) such amount has been fully and finally paid in cash to such Indemnified Party pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (ii) such amounts constitute Excluded Taxes. 
2.15Indemnity for Taxes
(a)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Seller hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Seller shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the recipient of such payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Seller shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Seller shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.
(b)In addition, the Seller shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law.
(c)The Seller shall indemnify each Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Indemnified Party on or with respect to the sale, assignment and transfer of the Portfolio Receivables under this Agreement, any Investment and any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Seller hereunder  or where payment of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes is otherwise made by an Indemnified Party pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body (other than those resulting from the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, fraud or wilful 
87
    
949049213.2






misconduct).  A certificate (along with a copy of the applicable documents from the relevant Official Body) as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Seller by an Indemnified Party, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Purchaser, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  In connection with any request for compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15(c), the relevant Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Master Servicer a receipt (or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer) of such payment or liability with respect to which such request relates.

Simultaneously with the delivery to a Purchaser Agent of any receipt, return or other evidence pursuant to this Section 2.15(d), the Seller shall deliver a copy of the same to the Master Servicer.
(e)(i)    Upon the reasonable request of the Seller, any Foreign Purchaser that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Seller is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Seller (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law (and, so far is practicable, within the time or times required by applicable Law) as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided, that such Foreign Purchaser is legally able to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and such documentation has not already been provided by the Foreign Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.15(e)(ii) hereof.
    (ii)    Each Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) either (A) in the case of a Purchaser that is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), a properly completed and executed Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, claiming to the effect a zero percent rate of U.S. federal income tax withholding on interest income, or (B) in the case of a Purchaser that is a “U.S. Person” as defined in Code section 7701(a)(30), a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is not subject to backup withholding.
Such IRS forms shall be delivered by each applicable Purchaser on or prior to the date on which such Purchaser becomes a Purchaser under this Agreement.  In addition, each Purchaser shall deliver such applicable IRS forms no later than the end of the third calendar year following the year in which the most recently submitted IRS forms 
88
    
949049213.2






were delivered and upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any previously delivered IRS form resulting from a related change in factual circumstances of Purchaser; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision in this Section 2.15(e), a Purchaser shall not be required to deliver any such subsequent IRS form pursuant to this paragraph that such Purchaser is not legally able to complete, execute and deliver.
(f)If an Indemnified Party determines, in its sole good faith discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Seller or with respect to which the Seller has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Seller (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Seller under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Indemnified Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund net of any applicable Taxes payable in respect of such interest); provided that the Seller, upon the request of such Indemnified Party, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Seller (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) to such Indemnified Party in the event such Indemnified Party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body.  This Section 2.15 shall not be construed to require any Indemnified Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Seller or any other Person.
(g)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.15 to the contrary, the Seller shall not be required to pay to any Indemnified Party any amount pursuant to this Section 2.15 to the extent (i) such amount has been fully and finally paid in cash to such Indemnified Party pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (ii) such amounts constitute Excluded Taxes. 
(h)Each Purchaser shall, at such times as the Administrative Agent may request, take reasonable steps to obtain and deliver to the Administrative Agent a valid certificate issued by the appropriate taxation authority in that Purchaser’s jurisdiction of incorporation certifying that Purchaser is resident for taxation purposes in that jurisdiction (including certification of residence, where applicable, for the purposes of a double taxation treaty).
(i)Each of the Seller, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser shall provide a certified copy of a certificate of tax residence to the Master Servicer from their respective jurisdictions at closing and on an annual basis thereafter.
2.16Conversion of currencies
(a)If, on any day a payment is due and payable hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, it is necessary for funds in one currency to be converted into another currency in order to make any payment required to be 
89
    
949049213.2






made pursuant to Sections 2.6 (Collections prior to Facility Termination Date) or 2.7 (Collections after Facility Termination Date), as applicable, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) solicit offer quotations from at least two foreign exchange dealers reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent for effecting such exchange and shall select the quotation which provides for the best exchange rate.  The Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) effect such exchange (or, if applicable, shall instruct the Administrative Agent to effect such exchange) as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter.
(b)On each Exchange Rate Determination Date, the Seller shall (and shall cause the Master Servicer to) determine the Spot Rate for each Local Currency (based on the relevant exchange rate appearing on any Reuters World Currency Page or applicable Bloomberg BGN FX Page for such currency as set forth in the definition of Spot Rate) and give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent.  In the event the Spot Rate for such Local Currency cannot be determined by the Master Servicer because the relevant exchange rate does not appear on any Reuters World Currency Page or applicable Bloomberg BGN FX Page for such currency as set forth in the definition of Spot Rate, then the Spot Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and notified to the Seller and the Master Servicer in accordance with such definition.
(c)Whenever any computation or calculation hereunder requires the aggregation of amounts denominated in more than one currency, all amounts that are denominated in a Local Currency shall be converted to U.S. Dollars using the Spot Rate determined for the Exchange Rate Determination Date immediately preceding the date of such calculation.
2.17[Reserved]
2.18Mitigation obligations
If an event occurs as a result of which any Indemnified Party requests compensation under Section 2.11 (Breakage costs) or Section 2.14 (Indemnity for reserves and expenses), or if any cancellation occurs under Section 2.12 (Illegality) or if the Seller is required to pay any additional amount to any Indemnified Party or any Official Body for the account of any Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 2.15 (Indemnity for Taxes), then such Indemnified Party shall notify the Seller of such event and, subject to the prior written consent of the Performance Undertaking Provider (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), use reasonable efforts to mitigate or avoid the effects of such event, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Indemnified Party, such efforts (a) would eliminate or reduce the amounts payable pursuant to such Sections in the future and (b) would not subject such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates to any unreimbursed cost or expense (taking into account any reimbursement made by any Transaction Party pursuant to a Transaction Document) and would not (in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnified Party) otherwise be disadvantageous to such Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by 
90
    
949049213.2






any Indemnified Party in connection with any action taken by such Indemnified Party pursuant to, or in connection with, this Section 2.18.
2.19Proceeds of Subordinated Loans
(a)On the Initial Purchase Date, the Seller shall request a Subordinated Loan in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Unpaid Balance of the Receivables to be purchased by the Seller pursuant to the Originator Sale Agreements and the Intermediate Transfer Agreements, over (ii) the aggregate cash payment made by the Purchasers to the Seller on the Initial Purchase Date in respect of such Receivables.  On any date of purchase of Receivables by the Seller, if the Seller does not have sufficient available funds to pay the full Purchase Price thereof and the Deferred RPA Purchase Price amounts with respect to the related Originator would exceed an amount equal to 10% of the Unpaid Balance of Portfolio Receivables that qualify as Eligible Receivables set forth in the most recently delivered Portfolio Report with respect to such Originator, the Seller shall request a Subordinated Loan in the amount of any shortfall if the Seller does not otherwise have sufficient funds available for such purpose; provided, that so long as the Applicable S&P Rating is not below “BBB-” (or withdrawn or suspended) and the Applicable Moody’s Rating is not below “Baa3” (or withdrawn or suspended), then the determination as to whether the Deferred RPA Purchase Price amounts with respect to each Originator would exceed such 10% threshold may be made on a weekly basis (rather than daily in any other circumstance) on the fourth Business Day (or, if such calendar week has less than 4 Business Days, on the last Business Day) of such calendar week and any such determination shall remain in effect until the immediately succeeding date of determination.
(b)If (i) on any day, the Seller has insufficient funds to pay the full Purchase Price of Receivables to be purchased on such day pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of, the Originator Sale Agreements and the Intermediate Transfer Agreements or (ii) on any Settlement Date, the Seller has insufficient funds to pay amounts payable on such Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.6(f)(i) through (iii) or 2.7(b)(i) through (iii) (solely for the first Settlement Date on which amounts are distributed pursuant to Section 2.7 and not to exceed the amount applied to the Purchase Price of Receivables during the related Calculation Period), as applicable, the Seller shall request a Subordinated Loan on such day in amount equal to such insufficiency. 
2.20Extension of Scheduled Commitment Facility Termination Date
(a)In connection with each anniversary of the Fourth Amendment and Restatement Effective Date (the “Applicable Anniversary Date”), the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) may advise the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser Agent in writing of its desire to extend the Scheduled Commitment Facility Termination Date to a date falling twelve (12), twenty-four (24) or thirty-six (36) calendar months after such Applicable Anniversary Date, provided (i) such request is made not more than ninety (90) days prior to, and not less than sixty (60) days prior to, the Applicable Anniversary Date 
91
    
949049213.2






and (ii) the Scheduled Commitment Facility Termination Date may not extend beyond the Final Termination Date without the consent of each Purchaser Agent.  Each Purchaser Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser in its related Purchaser Group of any such request and each such Purchaser shall notify its related Purchaser Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Master Servicer and the Seller of its decision to accept or decline the request for such extension no later than thirty (30) days prior to the then Applicable Anniversary Date (it being understood that each Purchaser may accept or decline such request in its sole discretion and on such terms as it may elect, and the failure to so notify its Purchaser Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Master Servicer and the Seller shall be deemed an election not to extend by such Purchaser).  In the event that all Committed Purchasers agree to extend the then current Scheduled Commitment Facility Termination Date, the Seller, the Administrative Agent, the Purchasers and the applicable Purchaser Agents shall enter into such documents as such Purchasers may deem necessary or appropriate to reflect such extension, and any costs and expenses incurred in connection with such documents shall be paid as agreed in writing among such Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents and the Administrative Agent (including attorneys’ fees), the Seller and the Master Servicer.
(b)No Committed Purchaser shall be obligated to agree to extend the Scheduled Commitment Facility Termination Date.  If any Committed Purchaser does not agree to extend, the Seller may (i) require such Committed Purchaser and its related Conduit Purchaser to assign its interest hereunder to an Eligible Assignee identified by the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) or (ii) if no Facility Event or Portfolio Event has occurred and is continuing, apply Collections to repay in full (to the extent not assigned in clause (i)) the Investment, Yield and other amounts owing to such Committed Purchaser and related Conduit Purchaser on a non-pro rata basis and terminate in full any unassigned commitment of such Committed Purchaser.
2.21Accordion Increase
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) may request from time to time an increase in the Aggregate Commitment (each, an “Accordion Increase”) in an aggregate amount which when aggregated with the amount of all other Accordion Increases does not exceed $75,000,000 (the “Additional Commitments”).
(b)Subject to and in accordance with Section 2.21(a), the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) may invite (i) any one or more Committed Purchasers to provide Additional Commitments in such amount as may be agreed by the Seller and such Committed Purchaser (each such Committed Purchaser that is invited and wishes to provide Additional Commitments, an “Accordion Committed Purchaser,”) and/or (ii) in consultation with the Administrative Agent, any one or more banks or other entities that have a short-term debt rating of at least A-1 by S&P and P-1 by Moody’s (unless agreed by the Administrative Agent that such minimum rating is not applicable) (each, a 
92
    
949049213.2






“New Accordion Committed Purchaser”) to provide Additional Commitments in such amounts as may be agreed by the Seller and such New Accordion Committed Purchaser.
(c)For the avoidance of doubt, no Committed Purchaser shall (unless otherwise agreed by that Committed Purchaser) be obliged to provide any Additional Commitment.
(d)The Seller shall, promptly following agreement with the Accordion Committed Purchasers and New Accordion Committed Purchasers and in any event not later than forty-five (45) Business Days (or such other period as the Administrative Agent after consultation with the Accordion Committed Purchasers and New Accordion Committed Purchasers, as applicable, and the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) may agree) prior to the proposed date of the Accordion Increase, deliver to the Administrative Agent a notice (an “Accordion Request”) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) which shall specify: (i) the aggregate amount of the proposed Additional Commitments, (ii) the proposed date of the Accordion Increase which shall be a Settlement Date (the “Accordion Increase Date”), (iii) the identity of, and the amount of the proposed Additional Commitment of, each Accordion Committed Purchaser and each New Accordion Committed Purchaser that wishes to provide an Additional Commitment and (iv) any fees relating to the Accordion Increase.  Following the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Accordion Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward a copy to each Purchaser Agent for informational purposes.  
(e)An Accordion Increase will only become effective if, on the date of the Accordion Request and the proposed Accordion Increase Date, the Facility Termination Date has not occurred and no event exists or would result from the proposed Accordion Increase that constitutes a Facility Event or Portfolio Event.
(f)Subject to the conditions in this Section 2.21 (Accordion Increase), an Accordion Increase will become effective in accordance with paragraph (g) below when the Administrative Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Accordion Increase Certificate delivered to it by the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) and the Additional Commitment Purchasers, if applicable, and any New Accordion Committed Purchaser and the Conduit Purchasers and Purchaser Agent in its new Purchaser Group shall have executed a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 11.3(i) (New Purchaser Groups). The Administrative Agent shall as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Accordion Increase Certificate appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute the Accordion Increase Certificate.  The Administrative Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Accordion Increase Certificate delivered to it by the Seller (or the Master Servicer on its behalf) and the Additional Commitment Purchasers once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your 
93
    
949049213.2






customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to each New Accordion Committed Purchaser.
(g)On the Accordion Increase Date, the amount of the Additional Commitment of each Additional Commitment Purchaser will be as set out in the relevant column opposite its name in the Accordion Increase Certificate.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, on and after any Accordion Increase Date, any Incremental Investment made by the Conduit Purchasers and the Committed Purchasers, and any Invested Amount repaid to the Conduit Purchasers and the Committed Purchasers, shall be made or repaid on a non-pro rata basis until each Purchaser Group’s Invested Amount (after giving effect to such Incremental Investment) is the same percentage of such Purchaser Group’s Commitment as every other Purchaser Group.
(h)The Seller shall promptly on demand pay the Administrative Agent and the Purchaser Agents the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred by them in connection with any increase in Commitments under this Section 2.21.
(i)Any amounts payable to the Purchasers by any Transaction Party on or before the Accordion Increase Date (including, without limitation, all interest, fees and commission payable up to (but excluding) the Accordion Increase Date) in respect of any period ending on or prior to the Accordion Increase Date shall be for the amount of the Purchasers party to this Agreement prior to the Accordion Increase Date and no Additional Commitment Purchaser shall have any interest in, or any rights in respect of, any such amount (save in respect of their Commitments up to (but excluding) the Accordion Increase Date).
(j)Each New Accordion Committed Purchaser, by executing the relevant Accordion Increase Certificate confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Administrative Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of the requisite Purchasers in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the Accordion Increase Certificate becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as the Purchasers.

(b)At any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Facility Termination Event:
(i)At the Administrative Agent’s request (acting at the request of the Majority Committed Purchasers) and at the Seller’s expense, the Seller shall, or shall cause each Servicer Party to (and if any Servicer Party shall fail to do so within two (2) Local Business Days, the Administrative Agent may) (i) notify each Obligor of Portfolio Receivables of the transfer, sale, trust, assignation and assignment of the Portfolio Receivables and the Related Security with respect thereto pursuant to the Transaction Documents and of the applicable Purchaser’s ownership of the Portfolio Receivables and the Related Security with respect thereto, (ii) direct such Obligors that payments under any Portfolio Receivable or any Related Security with respect thereto be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee and (iii) execute any power of attorney or other similar instrument and/or take any other action necessary or desirable to give effect to such notice and directions, including any action required (x) to convey or perfect the relevant Purchaser’s title in the Portfolio Receivables and Related Security, or (y) to be taken so that the obligations or other indebtedness of such Obligors in respect of any Portfolio Receivables and any Related Security with respect thereto may no longer be legally satisfied by payment to the applicable Originator or any of its Affiliates.
117
    
949049213.2






(ii)At the Administrative Agent’s request (acting at the request of the Majority Committed Purchasers) and at the Seller’s expense, the Seller shall, or shall cause each Servicer Party to, (A) assemble all of the Contracts, documents, instruments and other records (including computer tapes and disks) that evidence or relate to the applicable Portfolio Receivables, or that are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the applicable Portfolio Receivables, and shall make the same available to the Administrative Agent at a place selected by the Administrative Agent or its designee and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections of Portfolio Receivables in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrative Agent or its designee.
(c)The Seller authorizes the Administrative Agent, following the occurrence and during the continuation of a Facility Termination Event, to take any and all steps in the Seller’s name and on behalf of the Seller that are necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Administrative Agent, to collect amounts due under the Portfolio Receivables, including (i) endorsing the Seller’s or any other Transaction Party’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, and (ii) enforcing the Receivables and the Related Security and the Security Agreements and other Transaction Documents, including to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in connection with therewith and to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings that the Administrative Agent (or such designee) may deem to be necessary or desirable for the collection thereof or to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions of, or to perform any obligations or enforce any rights of the Seller or any other Transaction Party in respect of, the Receivables and the Related Security and the other Transaction Documents.
6.3Performance of obligations
(a)If the Master Servicer or the Seller fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and a Servicer Default or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such obligation; and the Administrative Agent’s costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable.
(b)The Seller shall, and shall cause the Master Servicer to, perform their respective obligations, and exercise their respective rights, under the Contracts and the Transaction Documents to the same extent as if the Portfolio Receivables had not been sold and transferred pursuant hereto.

118
    
949049213.2






any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Contracts or Transaction Documents.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Purchasers or the Purchaser Agents shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Transaction Documents or Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of any Transaction Party under any Transaction Document or Contract.
(c)The Administrative Agent’s rights and powers under this Section 6 and under the Servicing Agreement shall not subject the Administrative Agent to any liability if any action taken by it proves to be inadequate or invalid nor shall such powers confer any obligation whatsoever upon the Administrative Agent.
6.4Transparency
(a)For the purposes of Article 7(2) of the Securitisation Regulation, each of the Originators, the Master Servicer, the Seller, each Committed Purchaser and each Conduit Purchaser designates the Master Servicer, in its capacity as an “originator” as defined in Article 2(3) of the Securitisation Regulation, to fulfil the information requirements of Article 7(1) of the Securitisation Regulation and the Master Servicer, in such capacity, hereby accepts such designation.
(b)The Master Servicer, in its capacity as an “originator” as defined in Article 2(3) of the Securitisation Regulation, agrees that, until the Final Payout Date, it will provide promptly upon request, all information as the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent, any Committed Purchaser  and/or any Conduit Purchaser may reasonably request and will take such further action and enter into such other agreements not otherwise provided for hereunder as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent, any Committed Purchaser and/or any Conduit Purchaser in order to enable compliance by the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent, any Committed Purchaser (in its capacities as a Committed Purchaser and/or as a Liquidity Bank) and/or any Conduit Purchaser with Article 5 and/or Article 7 of the Securitisation Regulation, in relation to the Transaction.
(c)The Master Servicer, in its capacity as an “originator” as defined in Article 2(3) of the Securitisation Regulation, agrees that, until the Final Payout Date, it will make available to each Committed Purchaser and each Conduit Purchaser, each relevant competent authority and, upon request therefor, potential Committed Purchasers and Conduit Purchasers, all documents, reports and information necessary to fulfil the requirements of Article 7 of the Securitisation Regulation including the requirements of Article 7(1)(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (g) of the Securitisation Regulation.

120
    
949049213.2






$100,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in any other currency; and (B) clause (iii) shall be deemed inapplicable if the occurrence of such event or condition referred to above gives rise to an obligation to make mandatory prepayment without further demand of any Person on terms agreed prior to the occurrence of such event or condition;

8.THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
8.1Authorization and Action
(a)The Administrative Agent shall:
(i)hold, administer and realize any Collateral that is transferred or assigned by way of security (Sicherungseigentum/Sicherungsabtretung) or otherwise granted to it creating or evidencing a non-accessory security right (nicht akzessorische Sicherheit) in its own name as trustee (Treuhänder) for the benefit of the Secured Parties; 
122
    
949049213.2






(ii)hold, administer, and realize any Collateral that is pledged (Verpfändung) or otherwise transferred to the Administrative Agent creating or evidencing an accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) for the benefit of the Secured Parties; 
(iii)the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward to any Purchaser Agent the original or a copy of any document or report which is delivered to the Administrative Agent by any Transaction Party in connection with any Transaction Document (including, (i) in the case of any document or report specifically required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon (London time) on any Business Day, by the end of such Business Day of receipt and (ii) in the case of each other document or report, by 12:00 noon (London time) on the following Business Day); and
(iv)upon receipt of the specified direction of all Purchasers, the Majority Committed Purchasers or the Required Committed Purchasers, as applicable, take any action which the Transaction Documents specify must be taken by the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such direction.  It is understood and agreed that any Purchaser or Purchaser Agent shall have the ability to request a vote on any matter requiring Purchaser or Purchaser Agent consent hereunder at any time, in which event the Administrative Agent shall promptly solicit such vote.
(b)Each Secured Party hereby ratifies and approves all acts and declarations done by the Administrative Agent on such Secured Parties' behalf before the execution of this Agreement.
(c)Each of the parties to this Agreement agrees that, in relation to any jurisdiction the courts of which would not recognize or give effect to the trust expressed to be created by this Agreement, the relationship of the Secured Parties to the Administrative Agent shall be construed as one of principal and agent but, to the extent permissible under the laws of such jurisdiction, all the other provisions of this Agreement shall have full force and effect between the parties to this Agreement.
(d)Each of the Secured Parties hereby authorizes and grants power of attorney (Vollmacht) to the Administrative Agent to: 
(i)accept as its representative (Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory Collateral granted to it in relation to the German Security Documents and to execute and amend for and on its behalf all German Security Documents to which it is a party, and any other agreements related to the Collateral;
(ii)execute on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties where relevant and without the need for any further referral to, or authority from, the Secured Parties or any other person all necessary releases of any Collateral created under any of the German Security Documents;
123
    
949049213.2






(iii)realize the Collateral in accordance with the German Security Documents;
(iv)make and receive all declarations and statements which are necessary or desirable in connection with the Collateral or any of the German Security Documents; and
(v)undertake all other necessary actions and measures.
(e)The Administrative Agent is exempt from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) or similar restrictions under any applicable law.
(f)The Administrative Agent has the power to grant sub-power of attorney (including the release from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code).  A Secured Party which, due to its statutes, is not able to grant an exemption from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code will notify the Administrative Agent accordingly.  Upon demand of the Administrative Agent, such Secured Party will grant a certain power of attorney to the Administrative Agent in order to enable the Administrative Agent to act on the Secured Party's behalf in accordance with the Transaction Documents in a way the Administrative Agent deems appropriate to maintain the Secured Party's rights.
(g)Each Purchaser and Purchaser Agent hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the other Transaction Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is empowered and authorized, on behalf of the Secured Parties, to hold and administer the Collateral as trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties under the Security Documents.
(h)Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Seller hereby undertake to enter into an acknowledgment deed, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D, bearing certain date at law (data certa) with the Italian Originator and the Italian Collection Account Banks, in order to acknowledge that pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement any right, title and interest arising from the Italian Account Security (including those transferred by the Italian Intermediate Transferor to the Seller under the Italian Intermediate Transfer Agreement) has been transferred by the Seller to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Purchasers), including the right to exercise all the Seller’s rights and powers under the Italian Account Security Agreement.
(i)The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties other than those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, and no implied obligations or liabilities shall be read into any Transaction Document, or otherwise exist, 
124
    
949049213.2






against the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any duty of care or obligation to, or relationship of trust or agency with, any Transaction Party, the Conduit Purchasers, the Committed Purchasers, the Purchaser Agents or any other Secured Party, except as expressly set out in the Transaction Documents.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in no event shall the Administrative Agent ever be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to any provision of any Transaction Document or applicable Law.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
8.2Liability of Agent
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under or in connection with the Transaction Documents (including the Administrative Agent’s servicing, administering or collecting Receivables as Servicer pursuant to Section 6 (Administration and Collection of Receivables)), in the absence of its or their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(a)may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Seller or any Transaction Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;
(b)makes no warranty or representation to any Purchaser Agent, Conduit Purchaser, Committed Purchaser or other Secured Party (whether written or oral) and shall not be responsible to any Purchaser Agent, Conduit Purchaser, Committed Purchaser or other Secured Party for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;
(c)shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on the part of any Transaction Party or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Transaction Party or to verify the accuracy of any Portfolio Report, Outstanding Receivables Report or any other information received under the Transaction Document;
(d)shall not be responsible to any Purchaser Agent, Conduit Purchaser, Committed Purchaser or other Secured Party for the due execution, legality, 
125
    
949049213.2






validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; and
(e)shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
8.3Rabobank and Affiliates
The obligation of Rabobank to fund its pro rata share of Incremental Investments under this Agreement may be satisfied by Rabobank or any of its Affiliates.  With respect to any Incremental Investment or interest therein owned by it, Rabobank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Committed Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent.  Rabobank and any of its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with the Transaction Parties or any Obligor, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Transaction Parties or any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if Rabobank were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Purchaser Agents, the Conduit Purchasers, the Committed Purchasers or other Secured Parties.
8.4Indemnification of Administrative Agent 
Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Committed Purchaser severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Transaction Parties), ratably based on the Commitment of such Committed Purchaser (or, if the Commitments have terminated, ratably according to the respective Commitment of such Committed Purchaser immediately prior to such termination), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, provided that no Committed Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct; provided, that no action taken in accordance with the direction of the Required Committed Purchasers shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 8.4.  Without limitation of the foregoing, to the extent not previously reimbursed by a Transaction Party or the priority of payments hereunder, each Committed Purchaser shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorney’s fees pre-approved by the Purchasers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld)) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or 
126
    
949049213.2






otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Seller.  The undertaking in this Section 8.4 shall survive payment on the Final Payout Date and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.
8.5Delegation of Duties
The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
8.6Action or inaction by Administrative Agent
The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Purchaser Agents, the Required Committed Purchasers or the Majority Committed Purchasers, as the case may be, and assurance of its indemnification by the Committed Purchasers, as it deems appropriate.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or at the direction of the Required Committed Purchasers, and such request or direction and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Conduit Purchasers, Committed Purchasers and Purchaser Agents.  Unless any action to be taken by the Administrative Agent under a Transaction Document (a) specifically requires the advice or concurrence of the Purchaser Agents or (b) specifically provides that it be taken by the Administrative Agent alone or without any advice or concurrence of the Purchaser Agents, then the Administrative Agent may (and shall, to the extent required hereunder) take action based upon the advice or concurrence of the Required Committed Purchasers.
8.7Notice of Facility Events; Action by Administrative Agent
The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Facility Event or Portfolio Event or any other default or termination event under the Transaction Documents, as the case may be, unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from any Purchaser Agent, any Purchaser or any Transaction Party stating that a Facility Event or Portfolio Event has occurred hereunder or thereunder and describing such termination event or default.  If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Purchaser Agents whereupon the Purchaser Agents shall promptly give notice thereof to their respective Conduit Purchaser(s) and Committed Purchasers.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action concerning a Facility Event or Portfolio Event or any other matter hereunder as may be directed by the Required Committed Purchasers (subject to the other provisions of this Section 8), but until the Administrative Agent receives such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but

Each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Transaction Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent.  Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Purchaser Agent or any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of each Transaction Party and the Receivables and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any Transaction Document.

In addition, if either (i) the Administrative Agent has defaulted in the performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or (ii) the Administrative Agent is no longer Solvent, the Administrative Agent may be removed by the Purchaser Agents representing the Majority Committed Purchasers upon 30 days prior notice in the case of clause (i) above or immediately in the case of clause (ii) above.  Except as provided below, such resignation or removal shall not become effective until a successor Administrative Agent is appointed by the Purchaser Agents (with the consent of the Master Servicer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and has accepted such appointment.  If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed within 90 days after the departing Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the departing Administrative Agent may appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which successor Administrative Agent shall have short-term debt ratings of at least A-1 from S&P and P-1 from Moody’s and shall be either a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 or a Subsidiary of such an institution and shall be acceptable to the Master Servicer (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

9.THE PURCHASER AGENTS
9.1Authorization and action
Each Conduit Purchaser and each Committed Purchaser which belongs to the same Purchaser Group hereby appoints and authorizes the Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Purchaser Agent by the terms hereof and the other Transaction Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Purchaser Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Seller, any Transaction Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser (whether written or oral) and shall not be responsible to any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; (c) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document on the part of any Transaction Party or any other Person or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Transaction Party or to verify the accuracy of any Portfolio Report, Outstanding Receivables Report or any other information received under the Transaction Document; (d) shall not be responsible to any Conduit Purchaser or any Committed Purchaser for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
9.3Purchaser Agent and Affiliates
With respect to any Investment or interests therein owned by it, each Purchaser Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Committed Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not a Purchaser Agent.  The Purchaser Agent and any of its Affiliates may generally engage in any kind of business with any Transaction Party or any Obligor, any of their respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of any Transaction Party or any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates, all as if such Purchaser Agent were not a Purchaser Agent and without any duty to account therefore to any Conduit Purchasers or Committed Purchasers.
9.4Indemnification of Purchaser Agents
Each Committed Purchaser in any Purchaser Group severally agrees to indemnify the Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group (to the extent not reimbursed by the Transaction Parties), ratably according to its Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed 
130
    
949049213.2






on, incurred by, or asserted against such Purchaser Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any action taken or omitted by such Purchaser Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that no Committed Purchaser shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Purchaser Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9.5Delegation of Duties
Each Purchaser Agent may execute any of its duties through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  No Purchaser Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
9.6Action or inaction by Purchaser Agent
Each Purchaser Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group and assurance of its indemnification by the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, as it deems appropriate.  Each Purchaser Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or at the direction of the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group representing a majority of the Commitments in such Purchaser Group, and such request or direction and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group.
9.7Notice of Events of Termination
No Purchaser Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Facility Event or Portfolio Event or and other default or termination event under the Transaction Documents unless such Purchaser Agent has received notice from the Administrative Agent, any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser, any Servicer Party or the Seller stating that a Facility Event or Portfolio Event or default or termination event under the Transaction Documents, as the case may be, has occurred hereunder or thereunder and describing such termination event or default.  If a Purchaser Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group and to the Administrative Agent (but only if such notice received by such Purchaser Agent was not sent by the Administrative Agent).  A Purchaser Agent may take such action concerning a Facility Event or Portfolio Event as may be directed by Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group representing a majority of the Commitments in such Purchaser Group (subject to the other provisions of this Section 9), but until such Purchaser Agent receives such directions, such Purchaser Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as such Purchaser Agent deems advisable and in the best interests of the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group.

949049213.2






9.8Non-reliance on Purchaser Agent and other Parties
Except to the extent otherwise agreed to in writing between a Conduit Purchaser and its Purchaser Agent, each Conduit Purchaser and Committed Purchaser expressly acknowledges that neither the Purchaser Agent for its Purchaser Group nor any of such Purchaser Agent’s directors, officers, agents or employees has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by such Purchaser Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Transaction Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Purchaser Agent.  Each Conduit Purchaser and Committed Purchaser represents and warrants to the Purchaser Agent for its Purchaser Group that, independently and without reliance upon such Purchaser Agent, any other Purchaser Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Transaction Parties and the Receivables and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any Transaction Document.  Except for items expressly required to be delivered under any Transaction Document by a Purchaser Agent to any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser in its Purchaser Group, no Purchaser Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser in its Purchaser Group with any information concerning the Transaction Parties or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of such Purchaser Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
9.9Successor Purchaser Agent
Any Purchaser Agent may, upon at least 30 days notice to the Administrative Agent, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, resign as the Purchaser Agent for its Purchaser Group.  Except as provided below, such resignation shall not become effective until a successor Purchaser Agent has been, with the consent of the Master Servicer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), appointed in the manner prescribed by the relevant Program Support Agreements or, in the absence of any provisions in such Program Support Agreements providing for the appointment of a successor Purchaser Agent, until a successor Purchaser Agent is appointed by the Conduit Purchaser(s) in such Purchaser Group (with the consent of the Committed Purchasers representing a majority of the Commitments in such Purchaser Group) and has accepted such appointment.  If no successor Purchaser Agent shall have been so appointed within 30 days after the departing Purchaser Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the departing Purchaser Agent may appoint a successor Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group, which successor Purchaser Agent shall have short-term debt ratings of at least A-1 from S&P and P-1 from Moody’s and shall be either a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 or an Affiliate of such an institution.  Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group hereunder by a successor Purchaser Agent, such successor Purchaser Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Purchaser Agent, and the retiring Purchaser Agent shall be discharged from any further duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents.  After any 
132
    
949049213.2






retiring Purchaser Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of Section 2.6 (Indemnities) of the Servicing Agreement and Section 10 (Indemnities by the Seller) and this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Purchaser Agent.
9.10Reliance on Purchaser Agent
Unless otherwise advised in writing by a Purchaser Agent or by any Conduit Purchaser or Committed Purchaser in such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group, each party to this Agreement may assume that (a) such Purchaser Agent is acting for the benefit and on behalf of each of the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, as well as for the benefit of each assignee or other transferee from any such Person and (b) each action taken by such Purchaser Agent has been duly authorized and approved by all necessary action on the part of the Conduit Purchasers and Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group.
10.INDEMNITIES BY THE SELLER
Without limiting any other rights that the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agent, the Conduit Purchasers (including any related financing conduit if any such Conduit Purchaser funds itself through another issuing entity), the Committed Purchasers, the Program Support Providers, any Program Manager or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling Persons or Affiliates of any of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Party”) may have hereunder, under any other Transaction Document or under applicable Law, the Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, disbursements and expenses, including interest, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable internal and external attorneys’ fees and expenses (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party (including in connection with or relating to):
(i)  any investigation, litigation or lawsuit (actual or threatened) or order, consent decree, judgment, claim or other action of whatever sort (including the preparation of any defense with respect thereto), in each case, in any way arising out of, resulting from or related to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the funding or maintenance or financing, either directly or indirectly, by any Indemnified Party of the Investments made hereunder or the use of the proceeds thereof or in respect of any Collateral or any Facility Account or the enforcement, servicing, administration or collection thereof, or any other transaction contemplated hereby or thereby;

133
    
949049213.2






Security with respect thereto, the Facility Accounts and other Collateral, free and clear of any Adverse Claim;
(v)  any dispute, claim, setoff or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy) of an Obligor to the payment of any Receivable (including a defense based on such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of the merchandise, goods or services related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise, goods or services or relating to collection activities with respect to such Receivable or from any breach or alleged breach of any provision of the Receivables or any Contracts related thereto restricting assignment of any Receivables; or
(vi)  the commingling by any Transaction Party of Collections of Portfolio Receivables at any time with any other funds, the payment of any Collections into an account other than a Facility Account, or any failure of a bank or other financial institution at which a Facility Account is maintained to remit any amounts held in the Facility Accounts or any related lock-boxes pursuant to applicable instructions whether by reason of the exercise of setoff rights or otherwise;
excluding, however (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent that such Indemnified Amounts resulted from the negligence, fraud or wilful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party, (b) recourse (except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document) for Uncollectible Portfolio Receivables and Related Security with respect thereto, (c) any Excluded Taxes, and (d) any Indemnified Amount to the extent the same has been fully and finally paid in cash to such Indemnified Party pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
11.MISCELLANEOUS
11.1Amendments, etc.
No failure on the part of the Purchaser Agents, the Conduit Purchasers, the Committed Purchasers or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Transaction Party therefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent, with the prior written consent of each Purchaser Agent (and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Performance Undertaking Provider), and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Majority Committed Purchasers may waive any Portfolio Event or Facility Termination Event; and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall increase the Commitment of any Committed Purchaser unless in writing and signed by such Committed Purchaser and the relevant Purchaser Agent and (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall alter the duties of any Purchaser Agent in any 
134
    
949049213.2






material respect without the consent of such Purchaser Agent.  Following the occurrence of a Portfolio Event or Facility Termination Event and either (i) any waiver of such Portfolio Event or Facility Termination Event (as described above or in Section 7.1) or (ii) the failure of the Committed Purchasers to declare the Facility Termination Date where one or more Committed Purchasers have voted in favour of such declaration, any Committed Purchaser (and its related Conduit Purchaser) which voted against such waiver or in favour of the declaration of the Facility Termination Date may notify the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Administrative Agent in writing that it did not consent to such waiver and has opted for an early exit from this Facility.  If the Administrative Agent is one of the Committed Purchasers exiting the Facility, (i) one of the waiving Committed Purchasers (or its related Purchaser Agent) shall be immediately appointed as the successor Administrative Agent by the waiving Committed Purchasers (without the consent of the Seller or the Master Servicer or the necessity of satisfying any of the other requirements of Section 8.9) and (ii) all necessary steps shall be taken to transition all rights, obligations, security interests, charges, etc. to the successor Administrative Agent as a condition to such exit by the predecessor Administrative Agent.  Following delivery of such notice, and for so long as the Facility Termination Date has not occurred, the Seller may draw on the non-exiting Purchasers to the extent of any unused Commitments and availability hereunder (and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.2) to repay the Invested Amounts of each exiting Purchaser and/or shall allocate all Collections received (after paying amounts required under Sections 2.6(e)(i)-(v)) on a nonpro rata basis to the repayment of such Committed Purchaser (and its related Conduit Purchaser), in each case, until the Invested Amount of each exiting Purchaser has been reduced to zero (instead of reinvesting such amounts) (it being understood that if there are several exiting Purchasers, the allocation of Collections shall be paid on a pro rata basis across all exiting Purchasers).  In addition, the Commitment of any exiting Committed Purchaser shall be reduced to zero and no further Investments shall be made by such Committed Purchaser (or its related Conduit Purchaser).  For purposes of any voting by the Purchasers during the exiting process of a Committed Purchaser, such Committed Purchaser (and its related Conduit Purchaser) shall be permitted to vote based on their then-current Invested Amount.
11.2Notices, etc.
All communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be provided in the manner described in Schedule 2 (Address and Notice Information).
11.3Assignability
(a)General
This Agreement and each Purchaser’s rights and obligations hereunder shall be assignable by such Purchaser and its successors and permitted assigns to any Eligible Assignee subject to Sections 11.3(b) and (c).  Each assignor of an Investment or any interest therein shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Seller of any such assignment.  Each assignor of an Investment or any interest therein may, in connection with the assignment or participation, disclose to the assignee or participant any information relating to the 
135
    
949049213.2






Transaction Parties, including the Collateral, furnished to such assignor by or on behalf of any Transaction Party or by the Administrative Agent; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant agrees to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Transaction Parties received by it from any of the foregoing entities in a manner consistent with Section 11.6(b) (Confidentiality).  
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions and procedures set forth in this Section 11.3 (Assignability) shall not apply to any assignment made by a Committed Purchaser for the sole purpose of refinancing such Committed Purchaser’s Invested Amount using, in this respect, any entity within its group or managed by its Purchaser Agent.  In such a case, a Committed Purchaser may assign any of its rights with respect to such Invested Amount to such entities without any restriction.
(b)Assignments by Conduit Purchasers
Each Conduit Purchaser may pledge or otherwise grant security interests in all or any portion of the Investments to a security trustee in connection with its commercial paper program without prior notice to or consent from any other party or any other condition or restriction of any kind.  Each Conduit Purchaser may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Investments to any Conduit Assignee or Program Support Provider with respect to such Conduit Purchaser without prior notice to or consent from any other party or any other condition or restriction of any kind.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Conduit Purchaser may, from time to time assign all or any portion of its interest in the Investments and its rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party to an Eligible Assignee.  Upon such assignment by a Conduit Purchaser to a Conduit Assignee, (i) unless a new Purchaser Group is being established pursuant to Section 11.3(i), the Purchaser Agent for such Conduit Purchaser will act as the Purchaser Agent for such Conduit Assignee hereunder, (ii) such Conduit Assignee (and any related commercial paper issuer, if such Conduit Assignee does not itself issue commercial paper) and its liquidity support provider(s) and credit support provider(s) and other related parties (including all of its Program Support Providers) shall have the benefit of all the rights and protections provided to such Conduit Purchaser and its related Committed Purchasers herein and in the other Transaction Documents (including any limitation on recourse against such Conduit Assignee), (iii) such Conduit Assignee shall assume all of such Conduit Purchaser’s obligations hereunder or under any other Transaction Document (whenever created, whether before or after such assignment) with respect to the assigned portion of the Investments held by such Conduit Purchaser and such Conduit Purchaser shall be released from all such obligations, (iv) all distributions to such Conduit Purchaser hereunder with respect to the assigned portion of the Investments shall be made to such Conduit Assignee, (v) the definition of the term “CP Rate” shall be determined on the basis of the interest rate or discount applicable to Commercial Paper issued by such Conduit Assignee (and any related commercial paper issuer, if such Conduit 
136
    
949049213.2






Assignee does not itself issue commercial paper) rather than such assigning Conduit Purchaser, (vi) the defined terms and other terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be interpreted in accordance with the foregoing and (vii) if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Purchaser Agent with respect to such Conduit Assignee, the parties will execute and deliver such further agreements and documents (including amendments to this Agreement) and take such other actions as the Administrative Agent or such Purchaser Agent may reasonably request to evidence and give effect to the foregoing.
(c)Assignment by Committed Purchasers
Each Committed Purchaser may assign to any Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and any Investments or interests therein owned by it); provided that:
(i)each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement;
(ii)the amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (A) $100,000,000 (in U.S. Dollars or the Dollar Equivalent) and (B) all of the assigning Committed Purchaser’s Commitment; and
(iii)the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its recording in the Register (as defined below), an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 (which fee shall not be payable with respect to any assignment by a Committed Purchaser of a type described in the last sentence of Section 11.3(a)).  The Seller shall have no responsibility for such fee.  
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Committed Purchaser thereunder and (y) the assigning Committed Purchaser shall, to the extent that rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish such rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Committed Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Committed Purchaser shall cease to be a party hereto).  In addition, any Committed Purchaser or any of its Affiliates may assign any of its rights (including rights to payment of any Invested Amount and Yield) under this Agreement to any U.S. Federal Reserve Bank or European Central Bank without notice to or 
137
    
949049213.2






consent of any Transaction Party, any other Committed Purchaser or Conduit Purchaser, any Purchaser Agent or the Administrative Agent. 
(d)Register
At all times during which any Investment is outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.2 (Notices, etc.) (or such other address of the Administrative Agent notified by the Administrative Agent to the other parties hereto) a register as provided herein (the “Register”).  All Investments and any interest therein, and any Assignments and Acceptances of any Investments and any interest therein delivered to and accepted by the Administrative Agent, shall be registered in the Register, and the Register shall serve as a record of ownership that identifies the owner of each Investment and any interest therein.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no transfer of any Investment or any interest therein shall be effective unless and until such transfer has been recorded in the Register.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents, the Conduit Purchasers and the Committed Purchasers may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Committed Purchaser or Conduit Purchaser, as the case may be, under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement.  This Section 11.3(d) shall be construed so that each Investment and any interest therein is maintained at all times in “registered form” within the meaning of clauses 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c) of the IRC, and solely for the purposes of this Section 11.3, the Administrative Agent will act as an agent of the Seller.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Seller, the Master Servicer, any Purchaser Agent, any Conduit Purchaser or any Committed Purchaser at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(e)Procedure
Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Committed Purchaser and an Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been duly completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Seller and the Master Servicer.
(f)Participations
Each Purchaser may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities that are Eligible Assignees on the date of such sale (each a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its interests in the Investments owned by it and, in the case of a Committed Purchaser, its Commitment); provided that:
138
    
949049213.2






(i)such Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged;
(ii)such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible to the other parties to this Agreement for the performance of such obligations; and
(iii)the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents, the other Purchasers, the Seller and the Master Servicer shall have the right to continue to deal solely and directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Purchaser sells such a participation shall provide that the Participant shall not have any right to direct the enforcement of this Agreement or other Transaction Documents or to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Committed Purchaser will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of a type that would require the consent of each Purchaser affected thereby pursuant to Section 11.1 (Amendments, etc.).
(g)Seller and Servicer Assignment
Neither the Seller nor the Master Servicer may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Purchaser Agent.
(h)Cooperation
The Seller and the Master Servicer agree to assist each Committed Purchaser, upon its reasonable request, in syndicating their respective Commitments hereunder, including making management and representatives of the Master Servicer and the Seller reasonably available to participate in informational meetings with potential assignees. 
(i)New Purchaser Groups
In connection with any assignment by a Conduit Purchaser of all or any portion of its Invested Amount to a Conduit Assignee, such Conduit Assignee may elect to establish a new Purchaser Group hereunder by the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by such Conduit Assignee, the Committed Purchasers which are to be in its Purchaser Group and the Person which is to be the Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group, in each case without the consent of any other party.

Each Purchaser is hereby authorized (in addition to any other rights it may have) at any time after the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date following the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event to set off, appropriate and apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly waived) any amounts and any other indebtedness held or owing by such Purchaser to, or for the account of, the Seller against the amount of the Transaction Party Obligations owing by the Seller to such Person.
11.12Ratable payments
If any Committed Purchaser, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any Transaction Party Obligation in a greater proportion than that received by any other Committed Purchaser entitled to receive a ratable share of such Transaction Party Obligation, such Committed Purchaser agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such Transaction Party Obligation held by the other Committed Purchasers so that after such purchase each Committed Purchaser will hold its ratable proportion of such Transaction Party Obligation; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Committed Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Purchaser receives any payment through a proceeding against a Transaction Party and the other Purchasers were provided an opportunity to participate in such proceeding but opted not to, then such Purchaser may retain any such amounts.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Transaction Document, the obligations of the respective Conduit Purchasers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Conduit Purchaser acting as a Committed Purchaser hereunder) under this Agreement and all other Transaction Documents are solely the corporate obligations of each such Conduit Purchaser and shall be payable only at such time as funds are actually received by, or are available to, such Conduit Purchaser in excess of funds necessary to pay in full all outstanding Commercial Paper issued by such 
144
    
949049213.2






Conduit Purchaser and shall be non-recourse other than with respect to such excess funds, and without limiting Section 11.5, if ever and until such time as such Conduit Purchaser has sufficient funds to pay such obligation shall not constitute a claim against such Conduit Purchaser.  Each party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim of any such party shall be subordinated to the payment in full of all Commercial Paper.
(c)No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any party hereto contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of such party or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are solely a corporate obligation of such party, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of any party hereto or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) or any of them under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of such party contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by any party of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or at equity, or by statute, rule or regulation, of every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person from any liability it might otherwise have as a result of grossly negligent or fraudulent actions taken or grossly negligent or fraudulent omissions made by them.
11.14Limitation on the addition and termination of Originators
(a)Without limiting the right of any Originator to terminate its rights and obligations to sell Receivables to a Purchaser pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable Originator Sale Agreement, the Seller shall not consent to any request made to terminate any Originator Sale Agreement or to terminate the right or obligation of any Originator to continue selling its Receivables to the Seller or any Intermediate Transferor (as applicable) thereunder, nor will any Originator which is the subject of such request be terminated under an Originator Sale Agreement, in each case unless (i) the Master Servicer provides the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents and each Committed Purchaser with a certificate (signed by a Responsible Officer of the Master Servicer) which attaches a Monthly Report or Weekly Report, as applicable, giving pro forma effect to any reduction in the Net Eligible Receivables Balance resulting from the termination of such Originator or Originator Sale Agreement, and which certifies that, after giving pro forma effect to such termination and any prepayments of Investments on or prior to the date of such termination, the Aggregate Invested Amount does not exceed the Funding Base, (ii) no Facility Termination Event (other than with respect to the 
145
    
949049213.2






Originator so terminated) or Portfolio Event has occurred and is continuing (both before and after giving effect to such termination) and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Purchaser Agents will have received ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of such termination.

(b)The Seller will not, and will not permit any Intermediate Transferor to, consent to the addition of a new Originator under an Originator Sale Agreement except (i) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (ii) upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in such Originator Sale Agreement, and (iii) a reaffirmation from the Performance Undertaking Provider in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Required Committed Purchasers pursuant to which the Performance Undertaking Provider reaffirms its obligations under the Performance Undertaking after giving effect to the addition of such new Originator thereunder, together with any opinions and certificates in connection with the addition of such new Originator reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agent or the Seller.
(c)the Seller will not enter into any new Intermediate Transfer Agreement without the prior consent of the Administration Agent and each Purchaser Agent.
(d)Bunge Limited, acting on behalf of one or more of its Subsidiaries organized under the laws of a jurisdiction which at the time of such request is not an Approved Originator Jurisdiction, may submit a request in writing to the Administrative Agent in order to seek the approval of the addition of a new Approved Originator Jurisdiction (and a related new Approved Obligor Jurisdiction, Approved Currency and Approved Contract Jurisdiction to the extent necessary) and the entry into a new Originator Sale Agreement relating to such new Approved Originator Jurisdiction, provided that:
(i)the Administrative Agent shall respond to any such request as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof, and any approval of such request, subject to clause (ii) below, shall be “in principle” and may be conditional upon the execution by Bunge Limited of a mandate letter to be entered into with Rabobank in which Rabobank shall indicate its estimate of the costs to be incurred in adding such Subsidiary(ies) as a new Originator(s) hereunder, including the costs of due diligence in connection with, and structuring of, the securitization of such proposed new Originator’s Receivables;

949049213.2






Approved Obligor Jurisdiction, Approved Currency and Approved Contract Jurisdiction to the extent necessary) and any proposed new Originator organized under the laws thereof shall be subject to the final approval of each Purchaser Agent and confirmation from the Rating Agencies that the addition of such new Originator(s) will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then-current ratings of any Conduit Purchaser’s Commercial Paper;
(iii)each Person proposed to become a new Originator has become a party to the Servicing Agreement as a Sub-Servicer and, if applicable, with respect to a new Intermediate Transferor, is reasonably satisfactory to each Committed Purchaser;
(iv)the Originator Sale Agreement and, if applicable, Intermediate Transfer Agreement are in form and substance satisfactory to each Purchaser Agent;
(v)the Seller shall have delivered such instruments, opinions and other documents any Committed Purchasers may reasonably request in connection therewith (including amendment of the Performance Undertaking to include the obligations of any new Originator), all of which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to such Committed Purchasers;
(vi)no Facility Termination Event or Portfolio Event has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom; and
(vii)the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser Agent shall have received an amendment hereto reflecting such new Originator Sale Agreement and/or Intermediate Transfer Agreement. 
11.15Judgment Currency
(a)If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.
(b)The obligations of the Seller in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount 
147
    
949049213.2






of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Seller agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is more than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Applicable Creditor agrees to return any such excess to the Seller.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) and any similar Law in any relevant jurisdiction (the “Acts”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Transaction Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Transaction Party and other information that will allow such Purchaser to identify such Transaction Party in accordance with the Acts.
11.17No proceeding; limited recourse
(a)Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that (i) it will not institute against the Seller any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Event of Bankruptcy until there shall have elapsed two years plus one day since the Final Payout Date and (ii) notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, the obligations of the Seller under the Transaction Documents are solely the corporate obligations of the Seller and shall be payable solely to the extent of funds which are received by the Seller pursuant to the Transaction Documents and available for such payment in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and shall be non-recourse other than with respect to such available funds and, without limiting Section 11.17, if ever and until such time as the Seller has sufficient funds to pay such obligation shall not constitute a claim against the Seller.
(b)No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of the Seller by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are solely a corporate obligation of the Seller, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of the Seller or any of them under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of the Seller contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by the Seller of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or at equity, or by statute, rule
