2.1Purchase Request and Increase
(a)At any time on or after February 8, 2010 and on or prior to February 15, 2010, the Seller may, by delivery of an appropriately completed Purchase Request to the Trust, request the Trust to purchase an undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool from the Seller.  The Purchase Request shall specify (i) the amount of the Cash Payments to be paid to the Seller (which shall not be less than $30,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $100,000) and the Net Cash Payment to be paid to the Seller, and (ii) the date of such Purchase.
(b)From time to time after the initial Purchase hereunder up to the Termination Date, the Seller may, by delivery of an appropriately completed Increase Request delivered to the Trust at least one Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Increase, request the Trust to increase the Investment and the amount of its undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool.  The Increase Request shall specify, (i) the amount of the Cash Payment and the Net Cash Payment to be paid to the Seller, (ii) the date of such Increase (which shall be a Remittance Date), and (iii) the account number of the Seller into which the Net Cash Payment should be deposited.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust may, in its sole discretion by written notice to the Seller and the Servicer by 5:00 p.m. on the date of receipt of an












     Increase Request, elect to fund any requested Increase no later than the [**] day following the Seller's delivery of an Increase Request (the "Deferred Increase Date"), rather than on the requested Increase date. In the event that the Trust so elects to defer funding an Increase, subject to the adjustment of the Investment for certain purposes as described in Section 2.1(d), the Trust shall be obligated to fund such Increase no later than such Deferred Increase Date so long as all applicable conditions precedent to such Increase pursuant to Section 3.2 were satisfied on the related requested Increase date (regardless of whether such conditions precedent to funding are not satisfied thereafter or on the Deferred Increase Date). The Trust may (in its sole discretion) fund such Increase on any Business Day prior to such Deferred Increase Date. Subject to any adjustment of the Cash Payment payable as described in Section 2.1(d), the Seller shall be obligated to accept the proceeds of any such Increase on the date funded by the Trust.
(d)Future Increase Requests and reports shall be calculated on a pro forma basis including any unfulfilled Increases in the calculation of the Investment (e.g., the calculation of the Trust's Share shall include such unfulfilled Increases). For the avoidance of doubt, any payments required by clause (c) of the definition of Paydown Date shall be satisfied first by reducing the current balance of any unfulfilled Increases to zero before allocating the Trust's Share of Collections to the Trust. In addition, no unfulfilled Increase shall accrue Funding Discount or be included in the calculation of fees hereunder until funded.
2.2Purchase and Sale
( a)If the conditions precedent in Section 3.1 (in the case of the Purchase hereunder) and Section 3.2 are satisfied or have not been satisfied but have been waived by the Trust, on the date specified in the Purchase Request, the Seller shall sell, assign and transfer to the Trust, and the Trust shall purchase, an undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool, having the terms and attributes and conferring upon the Trust the entitlements and property rights set out in Section 2.3, for the Purchase Price applicable to the Purchase, and the Trust shall deposit the applicable Cash Deposit Amount into the Cash Reserve Account and pay to the Seller the Net Cash Payment in respect thereof on the date of such Purchase.  Upon the making of such payment and deposit, all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to an undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool shall be sold, assigned and transferred to the Trust on a fully serviced basis without recourse (except as provided by this Agreement), without the need of any formality or other instrument of assignment.
( b)If the conditions precedent in Section 3.2  are satisfied or have not been satisfied but have been waived by the Trust, on the date specified in an Increase Request, the Seller shall sell, assign and transfer to the Trust, and the Trust shall purchase, an additional undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool, having the terms and attributes and conferring upon the Trust the entitlements and property rights set out in Section 2.3, for the additional Purchase Price applicable to the Increase, and the Trust shall deposit the applicable Cash Deposit Amount into the 












Cash Reserve Account and pay to the Seller the Net Cash Payment in respect thereof on the date of such Increase and thereafter the Investment shall be increased by the amount of the Cash Payment and the Trust's Share shall be calculated based on such increased Investment. Upon the making of such payment and deposit pursuant to the Increase Request, an additional interest in the Receivables Pool shall be sold, assigned and transferred to the Trust on a fully serviced basis without recourse (except as provided by this Agreement), without the need of any formality or other instrument of assignment, such that the Trust's Share shall be calculated based on such increased Investment.
( c) In addition to Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(b), but subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.2(c), the Seller shall, on the date hereof, execute and deliver to the Trust the Quebec Assignment.  For greater certainty, to the extent there is any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and the Quebec Assignment, the Quebec Assignment shall govern.
2.3Ownership Interests
The undivided co-ownership interests in the Receivables Pool to be conveyed to and owned by the Trust pursuant to the terms hereof shall constitute and comprise property interests in the Receivables Pool that shall entitle the Trust to receive amounts from the Trust's Share of Collections from Receivables and other amounts constituting the Receivables Pool in the amounts, at the times and on the terms and conditions herein provided.  Such undivided co-ownership interest is not intended and shall not be construed as merely a contractual or personal right against the Seller but rather as an interest in rem.  The undivided co-ownership interest in the Receivables Pool acquired by the Trust by way of the Purchase and any Increases in accordance with Section 2.1 are collectively referred to herein as the "Trust's Co- Ownership Interest."

Such undivided ownership interest in the Receivables Pool not constituting the Trust's Co-Ownership Interest is referred to herein as the "Seller's Retained Interest".  The Seller and Trust shall hold the Seller's Retained Interest and Trust's Co-Ownership Interest, respectively, as tenants in common.

2.11Purchases Limited by Program Limit
No Purchase or Increase may be made hereunder if, after giving effect thereto, the Investment would exceed the Program Limit. 
2.12Program Limit
The Seller may, upon at least 30 days written notice to the Trust, reduce in part the unused portion of the Program Limit; provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $1,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof and shall be effective on a Remittance Date.
2.13Voluntary Paydown of Investment
If at any time the Seller wishes to reduce the Investment, the Seller shall (i) provided the reduction can be fully paid on a Remittance Date, provide details thereof in a Servicer Report or Portfolio Certificate one day prior to such Remittance Date, or (ii) give the Trust, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer at least two Business Days' prior written notice thereof (including the amount of such proposed reduction and the proposed date on which such reduction will commence).

At any time prior to a Receivable first being referenced in a Servicer Report or a Portfolio Certificate as an Eligible Receivable, the Servicer (so long as the Seller is the Servicer) may designate such Receivable as a "Specified Ineligible Receivable" (which designation may take the form of a specification that a certain class or category of Receivables to be created after such designation will be treated as "Specified Ineligible Receivables").  In addition, the Servicer (so long as the Seller is the Servicer) may, on behalf of the Seller, (i) designate an existing Receivable as a "Specified Ineligible Receivable" or (ii) designate an existing Specified Ineligible Receivable as a Receivable (i.e., no longer a "Specified Ineligible Receivable"), in each of cases (i) and (ii) with the prior written consent of the Trust.  For the avoidance of doubt, any Receivable which was treated as an Eligible Receivable hereunder at any time may not be treated as a "Specified Ineligible Receivable" without the prior written consent of the Trust.  The Servicer (so long as the Seller is the Servicer) shall identify the aggregate Principal Balance of all such "Specified Ineligible Receivables" on each Servicer Report.  To the extent the Servicer has from time to time identified a Receivable as a "Specified Ineligible Receivable" in accordance with this Section, for so long as such Receivable is a Specified Ineligible Receivable, such Receivable (i)  shall not be included as an Eligible Receivable by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder, (ii) shall not be 










included in any calculations of the Delinquency Ratio or the Default Ratio or other Receivables Pool information (other than a statement of the aggregate Principal Balance of such Specified Ineligible Receivables) hereunder and (iii) shall not be considered a Receivable for purposes of Section 6.1. 
2.17Collection Account
Subject to this Section 2.17, the Servicer shall be entitled to access the Collection Account and the Collections deposited therein, and may withdraw funds deposited to the Collection Account and payable to the Seller pursuant to Sections 2.7(f) and 2.10(f) prior to the relevant Remittance Date.  Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, the Trust may notify the Servicer that it no longer wishes the Servicer to have the access rights described in this Section 2.17 and/or to be authorized to allocate and pay the amounts referred to in Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 and 2.10.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Servicer will have no further access or other rights with respect to the Collection Account and the Trust, or its nominees, will assume the duties of the Servicer under the aforementioned Sections 2.5 through 2.10.
2.18Location of Cash Reserve Account and Collection Account. 
If at any time the Bank of Montreal (or any subsequent Eligible Institution) ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer (on the Seller’s behalf) shall promptly establish a new Cash Reserve Account and a new Collection Account at a financial institution which is an Eligible Institution and transfer all amounts on deposit in such accounts at the Bank of Montreal (or any subsequent Eligible Institution) to such new accounts at such financial institution, until such time as the Bank of Montreal (or any subsequent Eligible Institution) meets the Eligible Institution requirements.
2.19Legal Final Maturity Date
All obligations of the Seller hereunder shall be due and payable in full on the Legal Final Maturity Date (unless due and payable earlier than such date in accordance with the provisions hereof).

The Servicer, as agent for the Trust (to the extent provided herein), shall perform its duties hereunder with reasonable care and diligence, using that degree of skill and attention that the Servicer exercises in managing, servicing, administering, collecting on and performing similar functions relating to comparable Receivables that it services for itself or other Persons.










5.3Authorization of Servicer
Without limiting the generality of the authority granted by the designation of any Person as Servicer, and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust to take any and all reasonable steps in its name and on its behalf necessary or desirable, and not inconsistent with the sale, transfer and assignment of an undivided co-ownership interest in the Pool Assets to the Trust, except that the Servicer shall not be required to notify any Person of the Trust's interest therein until the occurrence of a Trigger Event (other than a Trigger Event pursuant to Section 6.1(ee)), in the reasonable determination of the Servicer, to collect all amounts due under any and all Pool Assets, including, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust and its successors and assigns, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Pool Assets and, after delinquency of any Pool Receivable, and to the extent permitted under and in compliance with applicable law and regulations, to commence proceedings with respect to enforcing payment of such Pool Receivable and the Related Security, and adjusting, settling or compromising the account or payment thereof, to the same extent as the Seller could have done if it had continued to own the Pool Assets.

Unless the Trust shall have given its express prior written consent thereto, the Servicer shall not take any action that would make the Trust a party to any litigation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer need not seek the Trust's consent to make the Trust a party to litigation incidental to the enforcement by the Servicer of any of the Pool Assets.
5.5Assignment for Purpose of Enforcement
If the Servicer shall commence a legal proceeding to enforce any rights under any of the Pool Assets or against an Obligor personally in accordance with this Agreement, the Trust shall thereupon be deemed to have automatically assigned its interest in any affected Pool Asset to the Servicer as of the day prior to such commencement, solely for the purpose of and only to the extent necessarily incidental to the enforcement by the Servicer of such rights.  The Servicer shall hold any such assigned interest in a Pool Asset in trust for the Trust and the same shall be deemed to have been automatically re-assigned to the Trust when the assignment to the Servicer ceases to be necessary for the enforcement by the Servicer of such rights.  If in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it shall be held that the Servicer may not enforce a right under a Pool Asset on the grounds that it shall not be a real party in interest or a holder entitled to enforce rights in respect of the Pool Asset, the Trust shall, at the Servicer's expense and direction, take such steps as are necessary to enforce the Pool Asset.










5.6Deposit of Collections
The Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, all Collections, to the Deposit Accounts as soon as reasonably possible and in any event, within one Business Day of receipt.  All Collections deposited to the Deposit Accounts shall be held for the benefit of the Trust and the Seller, shall only be invested in Eligible Investments and shall be withdrawn from the Deposit Accounts only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself out of Collections for any amounts paid by it to [**] pursuant to Section 8 of the Blocked Account Agreement in respect of chargebacks relating to cheques, drafts and other payment items dishonoured or otherwise returned for insufficient funds.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that, until consented to in writing by the Trust, only obligations described in clause (a) of the definition of Eligible Investments shall constitute Eligible Investments.

9.2Notification of Potential Liability
The Seller will, upon becoming aware of circumstances that could reasonably be expected to result in material liability of the Seller under this Article 9, promptly notify the Trust thereof.
9.3Litigation
At the request of the Trust, the Seller shall, at its expense, co-operate with the Trust in any action, suit or proceeding brought by or against the Trust relating to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Pool Assets (other than an action, suit or proceeding by the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Performance Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates against the Trust or by the Trust against the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Performance Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates).  In addition, the Seller agrees to notify the Trust and the Trust agrees to notify the Seller, at the Seller's expense, promptly upon learning of any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding, if the judgment or expenses of defending such action, suit or proceeding would be covered by Section 9.1 (except for an action, suit or proceeding by the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Performance Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates against the Trust or by the Trust against the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Performance Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates and except for ordinary course litigation relating to the enforcement of the Pool Assets) and to consult with the Trust, concerning the defence and prior to settlement; provided, however, that if (i) the Seller shall have acknowledged that Section 9.1 would cover any judgment or expenses in any action, suit or proceeding, and (ii) in the sole determination of the Trust, acting reasonably, the Seller has the financial ability to satisfy such judgment or expenses, then the Seller shall have the right, on behalf of the Trust but at the Seller's expense, to defend such action, suit or proceeding with counsel selected by the Seller, and shall have sole discretion as to whether to litigate, appeal or enter into an exclusively monetary settlement.
9.4Tax Indemnity
The Seller agrees to defend and to save the Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all liabilities arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with respect to or resulting from any delay by the Seller in paying or any omission to pay any Taxes otherwise required under this Agreement to be paid or withheld and remitted by or on behalf of the Seller on its own behalf, on behalf of the Trust or on behalf of any Obligor.  If the Seller shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable by or on behalf of 










the Seller on its own behalf or on behalf of any Obligor to the Trust hereunder or in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording hereof and of the other documents to be delivered hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if the Trust shall be required to pay any Taxes in respect of any sum received by the Trust from the Seller hereunder:
(a)the sum payable to the Trust shall be increased as may be necessary (or an amount shall be owed to the Trust) so that, after all required deductions, withholdings or payments in respect of such Taxes have been made, the Trust receives or retains an amount equal to the sum that the Trust would have received or retained had no such deductions, withholdings or payments been made;
(b)the Seller shall make such deductions or withholdings; and
(c)the Seller shall pay forthwith the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and will provide to the Trust copies of such forms as are required to be provided to such authority evidencing the payment by the Seller.
For greater certainty, it is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto that the Seller shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnified Parties under this Section for any Taxes payable by, or required to be withheld by, the Seller on account of Taxes payable on the income or gains of the Trust, Taxes payable by virtue of the non-resident status of the Trust or Taxes payable on the capital of the Trust.
9.5Tax Credit
If a payment (a "Grossed-up Payment") made by the Seller includes an amount (a "Gross-up") referred to in Section 9.4, and the Trust is able to apply for or otherwise take advantage of any tax credit or deduction in computing income or similar benefit by reason of any withholding or deduction made by the Seller in respect of the Grossed-up Payment (such credit, deduction or benefit hereinafter being referred to as a "Tax Credit"), then the Trust will, at the expense of the Seller, use reasonable endeavours to obtain the Tax Credit and, if it realizes the Tax Credit (whether by way of reducing taxes payable, receiving a tax refund, or otherwise), the Trust shall, subject to the provisos to this Section 9.5, pay to the Seller such amount, if any (not exceeding the Gross-up) as is determined by the Trust to be equal to the net after-tax value to the Trust of such part of the Tax Credit as is reasonably attributable to such withholding or deduction having regard to all dealings giving rise to similar credits, deductions or benefits in relation to the same tax period and to the cost of obtaining the same.  Any such reimbursement shall be conclusive evidence of the amount due to the Seller absent manifest error and shall be accepted by the Seller in full and final settlement of its rights of reimbursement hereunder; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of the Trust to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it deems fit and, in particular, the Trust shall not be under any obligation to claim relief from its income or similar tax liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding in priority to any other relief, claims, credits or deductions available to it; and (ii) the Trust shall not be obligated to disclose to the Seller any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations; provided, further, that if, as a result of (x) an audit of the Trust by its auditors or by a taxing authority, or (y) any change to the affairs of the Trust or to the available information 












concerning such affairs, which change is relevant to the determination that reimbursement with respect to a Tax Credit is payable to the Seller hereunder, the Trust determines, in its reasonable discretion, that any such payment made by the Trust to the Seller hereunder would not have been made had the Trust known the results of such audit or anticipated such change, or would have been made in a smaller amount, then the Seller shall pay to the Trust the amount of such payment which the Trust so determines, acting reasonably, to have been an overpayment.

ARTICLE 10
MISCELLANEOUS
10.1Liability of the Trust and the Securitization Agent
Neither BNY Trust Company of Canada or BMONB, nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees, will be liable pursuant to this Agreement for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own negligence or wilful misconduct.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and notwithstanding any term or provision hereof to the contrary, the Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that BMONB, in its capacity as Securitization Agent, acts as agent for the Trust and, except as otherwise provided in the first sentence of this Section, has no duties or obligations to, will incur no liability to, and does not act as an agent in any capacity for, the Seller.
10.2Delegation in Favour of Securitization Agent
The Trust may delegate to the Securitization Agent all or any of its powers, rights and discretion hereunder, and the Securitization Agent may from time to time take such actions and exercise such powers for and on behalf of the Trust as are delegated to it or contemplated hereby and all such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Each of the Seller and the Servicer shall be entitled to and be fully protected in relying on any instruction made or given by the Securitization Agent, and shall have no liability to the Trust in respect of such reliance.
10.3Change in Circumstances
If, at any time:
(a)the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation, administration application or implementation of, any applicable law or regulation by any court or Governmental Authority, in each case, adopted, issued, taking effect or occurring after the later of: (i) the date hereof; and (ii) the most recent date on which the Termination Date is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or
(b)the compliance by any of the Trust, the Securitization Agent, BMONB and/or any liquidity provider or credit enhancement provider to the Trust, or any of their Affiliates (each, an "Affected Person"), with any changed or introduced guideline, direction  or request, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof made after the later of: (i) the date hereof; and (ii) the most recent date on which the Termination Date is extended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, from or by any Governmental Authority or professional self-regulating or governing body (including, for greater certainty, the Office of the Superintendent 












of Financial Institutions Canada, the Board of Governors of the United States Federal Reserve System or any other body or entity governing accounting treatment or reserve requirements) or any change in generally accepted accounting principles including the adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (whether or not having the force of law);
has in the reasonable opinion of the Affected Person, the effect of:
(i)(A) increasing the costs, expenses or liabilities of, or imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, fee, tax, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, in each case any Affected Person (including as a result of a change in the Affected Person's capital position), as such costs, expenses or liabilities relate to the Trust making, funding or maintaining the Investment hereunder, provided that in the case of BMONB or any of its Affiliates, such increased costs, liabilities or expenses shall be limited to those that are directly attributable to increases in regulatory capital of BMONB or such Affiliates, (B) reducing the rate of return (on capital or otherwise) to any Affected Person in connection with, or as a result of the Affected Person either having to raise additional capital or incurring a deteriorated capital position as a result of the Trust making, funding or maintaining the Investment hereunder, (C) requiring the payment of any Taxes on or calculated with reference to the capital or debt of any Affected Person or (D) requiring any Affected Person to make any payment it would not otherwise be required to make; or
(ii)reducing the amount received or receivable by the Trust under this Agreement or in respect of any Pool Receivable, and provided that any such introductions or changes enumerated in clauses (a) and (b) above are of application across any applicable industry in which such Affected Person participates and are not limited in their application to one or more Affected Persons,
then the Seller shall, from time to time upon demand by the Trust, pay forthwith to the Trust or the applicable Affected Person, either directly or indirectly through the Trust, the amount of any such increased costs, expenses or liabilities incurred, reduction in amounts received or receivable, reduction in rate of return or required payment made or to be made; provided that the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Affected Person for any period in excess of 30 days prior to receipt of such notice.  The Trust shall deliver to the Seller a certificate setting forth the cause and computation of the amount of any such increased costs, expenses or liabilities, reduction in amounts received or receivable, reduction in rate of return, or required payment made or to be made, which computation may utilize such averaging and attribution methods as the Trust, or the applicable Affected Person, believes to be fair, acting reasonably.  Upon becoming aware thereof, the Trust shall, as soon as reasonably possible thereafter, notify the Seller of any event or circumstance which will result in any payment being required to be made by the Seller pursuant to this Section 10.3.  
















10.4Amendments, Waivers, Etc.
No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by the Seller or the Trust therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by (i) the Seller, the Trust and the Performance Guarantor (with respect to an amendment) or (ii) the Trust (with respect to a waiver or consent by it) or the Seller (with respect to a waiver or consent by the Seller), as the case may be, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given.
10.5Notices, Etc.
All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including telecopied or electronic transmission) and telecopied, mailed or delivered, to each party hereto, at its address set forth under its name on the signature page hereof or at such other address as shall be designated by such parties in a written notice to the other party hereto.  All such notices and communications shall be effective, in the case of written notice, on the Business Day it is delivered, and, in the case of notice by telecopy or electronic transmission, when telecopied or electronically transmitted against receipt of answer back, in each case addressed as aforesaid.
10.6No Waiver; Remedies
No failure on the part of the Trust 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.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
10.7Binding Effect; Assignability
This Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the Seller, the Performance Guarantor and the Trust, and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that (i) neither the Seller nor the Performance Guarantor may assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Trust, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (ii) prior to the occurrence of a Trigger Date, the Trust may not assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein, without the prior written consent of the Seller, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, provided that the Trust shall be permitted to assign its rights hereunder and interests herein without consent of the Seller to any other asset-backed commercial paper conduit administered by BMONB, to BMONB or any Affiliates of BMONB and as security for the benefit of the holders of Notes.
10.8Costs and Expenses
In addition to the rights of indemnification granted to the Trust under Article 9, the Seller shall pay to the Trust all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel on a substantial indemnity basis) incurred by the Trust and its agents in connection with the preparation of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the enforcement of the Seller's obligations and liabilities under this Agreement or under any related documents.  The Servicer shall also pay to the Trust such expenses 












as the Trust and the Securitization Agent may reasonably incur and such fees as the Trust and the Seller agree the Trust or the Securitization Agent may charge in respect of each amendment to this Agreement and each waiver of any provision of this Agreement requested by the Seller or required or initiated as a result of the Seller's actions.
10.9Confidentiality
Each of the Trust, the Seller, the Servicer, the Performance Guarantor and the Securitization Agent shall make all reasonable efforts to hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or effected in connection herewith in accordance with its customary procedures for handling its confidential information of this nature, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust, the Seller, the Servicer, the Performance Guarantor and the Securitization Agent may make disclosure of such non-public information as requested or required by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or when required under applicable law, and to its professional advisors; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each party hereto shall notify the other party hereto of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information to permit the party affected to contest such disclosure, if possible.
10.10Effect of Agreement
Each of the Seller and the Trust hereby expressly acknowledges that this Agreement, except as specifically provided with respect to the duties and obligations of the Servicer, is intended to create a relationship of purchaser and vendor.  Each of the Seller and the Trust hereby expressly disclaims any intention to establish a trust relationship (except to the extent expressly provided herein) or to constitute either the Seller or the Trust as the agent of the other except to the extent that the Seller, in its capacity as the Servicer, is acting as an agent of the Trust.  The Seller, on the one hand, and the Trust, on the other, covenant with each other that they will not, at any time, allege or claim that a relationship of trust or agency is created hereby, except as otherwise expressly provided for herein.
10.11Agreement Non-Exclusive
The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that this Agreement does not create any rights of exclusivity between them.
10.12No Set-off
All payments to be made by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder shall be made without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim.
10.13Termination
This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the Final Termination Date; provided, however, that the Trust's rights and remedies with respect to any incorrect representation or warranty made or deemed to be made by the Seller herein and the indemnification and payment 
















provisions hereof shall be continuing and will survive any termination hereof for a period of six years commencing on the Final Termination Date.
10.14Discharge of Certain Registrations in the Province of Quebec
So long as no Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred, the Servicer shall have the authority to sign, for and on behalf of the Trust, any document reasonably required to be signed by the Trust and the Seller and filed in the Register of Personal and Movable Real Rights (Quebec) (the "Register") for the purpose of effecting the discharge of any hypothec, lease, sale with a reservation of ownership, sale with a right of repurchase or any other registration forming part of the Pool Assets and registered in the Register, provided such discharge is granted by the Servicer in the ordinary course of its business.
10.15Execution in Counterparts
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  This Agreement shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party only when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an original manual signature; (ii) a faxed, scanned (including in portable document format (pdf.) or www.docusign.com), or photocopied manual signature; or (iii) any electronic signature permitted by Parts 2 and 3 of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), the Electronic Commerce Act, 2000 (Ontario) and other similar federal or provincial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act of the Uniform Law Conference of Canada or its Uniform Electronic Evidence Act, as the case may be.  Each electronic signature, or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature.  Each party hereto shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall have no liability with respect to, any faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature, or other electronic signature, of any other party and shall have no duty to investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity or authenticity thereof.
