(“BTMU”), as a Bank and as purchaser agent for Gotham (the “Gotham Purchaser Agent”), SUNTRUST BANK (“ST”), as a Bank and as purchaser agent for itself (the “ST Purchaser Agent”), BANK OF MONTREAL (“BMO”), as a Bank and as purchaser agent for Fairway (the “Fairway Purchaser Agent”), and THE TORONTO-DOMINION BANK (“TD”), as a Bank and as purchaser agent for itself (the “TD Purchaser Agent”, and together with the Liberty Purchaser Agent, the PNC Purchaser Agent, the Gotham Purchaser Agent, the ST Purchaser Agent and the Fairway Purchaser Agent, the “Purchaser Agents”), agree as follows:

 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

 

Certain terms that are capitalized and used throughout this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I to this Agreement.  Capitalized terms not defined herein are used as defined in the Purchase Agreement or, if not defined in the Purchase Agreement, the Credit Agreement. References in the Exhibits to the “Agreement” refer to this Agreement, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.  All interest rate and yield determinations referenced herein shall be expressed as a decimal and rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth of a percentage point in the manner set forth herein (as applicable).

 

The Seller has acquired, and may continue to acquire, Receivables and Related Security from the Originator, either by purchase or by contribution to the capital of the Seller, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement.  The Seller is prepared to sell undivided fractional ownership interests (referred to herein as “Receivable Interests”) in the Pool Receivables.  The Purchasers may, in their sole discretion, purchase such Receivable Interests in the Pool Receivables, and the Banks are prepared to purchase such Receivable Interests in the Pool Receivables, in each case on the terms set forth herein.

 

Certain parties hereto previously entered into that certain Second Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 28, 2011, as amended by that certain Assignment and Acceptance and Amendment Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2011 and as further amended and supplemented as of February 2, 2012, May 18, 2012 and September 24, 2012 (the “Existing Agreement”).

 











 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Bank shall not be obligated to make purchases under this Section 1.02 at any time in an amount that would exceed the Bank Commitment with respect to such Bank less, in the event such Bank has any related Purchasers, such Bank’s ratable share of the outstanding and unpaid Capital of such related Purchasers.  Each Bank’s obligation shall be several, such that the failure of any Bank to make available to the Seller any funds in connection with any purchase shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make funds available on the date of such purchase, and if any Bank shall fail to make funds available, each remaining Bank shall (subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence) make available its pro rata portion of the funds required to be funded for such purchase pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 1.02.

 

(e)                                  Special Provisions for Delayed Funding Dates.

 

(i)                                     If, at any time that the Seller delivers a Purchase Request pursuant to Section 1.02(a), any Bank has, pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 1.02(e), previously notified the Seller and Administrative Agent in writing that it is a Delaying Bank, the Purchaser Agent for such Delaying Bank may, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the proposed date that the purchase set forth in such Purchase Request is to be made (the “Original Date”), deliver a written notice (a “Delayed Funding Notice”) to the Seller and the Administrative Agent that its related Purchaser will not be making such purchase and of the intention of such Delaying Bank to fund its ratable share (based on such Bank’s Percentage) of the initial Capital of such Receivable Interest in the Pool Receivables on a Business Day that is on or before the thirty-third (33rd) day (or if such thirty-third (33rd) day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day thereafter) following such Original Date (such date, the “Delayed Funding Date”), rather than on the Original Date with respect thereto.  Any Bank for which a Delayed Funding Notice is delivered with respect to any Original Date shall be referred to herein as a “Delaying Bank” with respect to the purchase being made on such Original Date and funds required to be delivered on the respective Delayed Funding Date pursuant to such Delayed Funding Notice shall be referred to as “Delayed Funds”.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of a Delayed Funding Notice shall not relieve any other Bank that is not a Delaying Bank (each, a “Non-Delaying Bank”) of any of its obligations hereunder, including the obligation of such Non-Delaying Bank to make the purchase to be made on such Original Date and other purchases in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(ii)                                  No Bank may deliver a Delayed Funding Notice until after its delivery to the Seller and the Administrative Agent of a certificate (a “Delaying Certificate”) signed by an authorized  officer of such Bank certifying that (A) charges relating to the “liquidity coverage ratio” under Basel III have been incurred (or are expected to be to incurred) on such Bank’s interests and obligations hereunder and (B) such Bank is seeking or has obtained delayed funding in transactions similar to the transaction contemplated hereunder.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller acknowledges and agrees that the “charges” provided for in such certification may be external charges incurred by such Bank or internal charges incurred by any business of such Bank managing such Bank’s interests or obligations hereunder.  Each Delayed Funding Notice delivered by a Bank shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by such Bank to 

 

4











 

pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (ii) all security interests and property subject thereto from time to time purporting to secure payment of monies due or to become due under or pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (iii) all rights of the Seller to receive proceeds of any insurance, indemnity, warranty or guaranty with respect to the Purchase Agreement, (iv) claims of the Seller for damages arising out of or for breach of or default under the Purchase Agreement, and (v) the right of the Seller to compel performance and otherwise exercise all remedies thereunder;

 

(b)                                 all Receivables, the Related Security with respect thereto and the Collections and all other assets, including, without limitation, accounts, chattel paper, instruments and general intangibles (as those terms are defined in the UCC) ), owned by the Seller and not otherwise purchased or scheduled to be purchased under this Agreement;

 

(c)                                  each Collection Account, the Controlled Account and all amounts on deposit therein and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing any of the foregoing; and

 

(d)                                 to the extent not included in the foregoing, all proceeds of and all amounts received or receivable under any and all of the foregoing.

 

The Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Investors, shall have, with respect to the foregoing, in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to it, for the benefit of the Investors, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

 

SECTION 1.10.           [Reserved]

 

SECTION 1.11.           Sharing of Payments.

 

If any Investor (for purpose of this Section 1.11 only, a “Recipient”) shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of any interest in the Capital owned by it in excess of its ratable share thereof, such Recipient shall forthwith purchase from the Investor entitled to a share of such amount participations in the percentage interests owned by such Persons as shall be necessary to cause such Recipient to share the excess payment ratably with each such other Person entitled thereto; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Recipient, such purchase from each such other Person shall be rescinded and each such other Person shall repay to the Recipient the purchase price paid by such Recipient for such participation to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such other Person’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such other Person’s required payment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the Recipient) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Recipient in respect of the total amount so recovered.

 

SECTION 1.12.           Repurchase Option.

 

So long as no Event of Termination or Incipient Event of Termination would occur or be continuing after giving effect thereto, the Seller shall have the right to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the Receivable Interests held by the Investors and the Banks upon not less than thirty (30) days15 days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser Agents.  Such notice shall specify 

 

16











 

the date that the Seller desires that such repurchase occur (such date, the “Repurchase Date”).”) and, if specified in such notice, such repurchase may be conditioned upon the effectiveness of one or more other transactions specified in such notice (in which case, such notice may be revoked by the Seller if any of those transactions is not to become effective by providing written notice to the Purchaser Agents to such effect not less than three Business Days prior to the Repurchase Date).  On the Repurchase Date, the Seller shall transfer to each Purchaser Agent’s Account in immediately available funds an amount equal to (i) the Capital of the Receivable Interests held by the Investors and the Banks, (ii) all accrued and unpaid Yield thereon to the Repurchase Date, (iii) all accrued and unpaid fees owing to the Investors and the Banks under the Fee Agreements, (iv) the Liquidation Fee owing to the Investors and the Banks in respect of such repurchase and (v) all expenses and other amounts payable hereunder to any of the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents, the Investors and the Banks (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements for a single firm of primary counsel).  Any repurchase pursuant to this Section 1.12 shall be made without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents, the Investors or the Banks (except for a warranty that all Receivable Interests repurchased are transferred free of any lien, security interest or Adverse Claim created solely by the actions of the Administrative Agent, the Purchaser Agents, the Investors or the Banks).  Further, on the Repurchase Date the Bank Commitments for all the Banks shall terminate, each of the Commitment Termination Date and Facility Termination Date shall have occurred, and no further purchases or reinvestments of Collections shall be made hereunder.

 

SECTION 1.13.           Extension; Additional Purchasers; Increased Commitments.

 

(a)                                 Extension of Term.  The Seller may, at any time during the period which is no more than forty-five (45) days or less than thirty (30) days immediately preceding the Commitment Termination Date (as such date may have previously been extended pursuant to this Section 1.13), request that the then applicable Commitment Termination Date be extended for an additional 364 days.  Any such request shall be in writing and delivered to the Purchaser Agents, and shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) no Bank shall have an obligation to extend the Commitment Termination Date at any time, and (ii) any such extension with respect to any Bank shall be effective only upon the written agreement of such Bank and the related Purchaser Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Seller and the Collection Agent.  Each Bank will respond to any such request no later than the fifteenth 15th day prior to the Commitment Termination Date (the “Response Deadline”), provided that a failure by any Bank to respond by the Response Deadline shall be deemed to be a rejection of the requested extension.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Commitment Termination Date shall not occur as a result of any Bank’s failure to agree to any such extension (each such Bank being a “Nonrenewing Bank”) if, on or prior to such date, such Nonrenewing Bank is replaced by another Bank which has a Bank Commitment equal to such Nonrenewing Bank.
