interpretation. The Singular includes the plural and vice versa. If a provision of any law is referred to, it will be as it is from time to time amended. 
 2.0 PURPOSE 
 2.1 Payment Terms The purpose of this Agreement is to enable the Supplier to offer payment terms to Buyers and to enable
it to sell and IBM GF to purchase the resulting Receivables payable by Buyers on the terms of this Agreement. IBM GF shall not make any charge to Buyers for the No Charge Period. 
 2.2 Designation of Buyers The Supplier may request IBM GF in writing to include as Buyers those of its customers that it may from time to time designate (such designation to state the Supplier’s Invoice
Terms required from the options specified in Schedule A) and IBM GF may agree to such inclusion by entering into a Buyer Agreement with such designated customer. Such designation shall continue for the purpose of this Agreement unless and until the
Supplier removes it by not less than 60 days written notice to IBM GF, whereupon the Supplier shall cease to be obliged to offer to sell Receivables owed by such Buyer to IBM GF. 
 2.3 True Sale; Risk Borne by IBM GF The sale of each Receivable will constitute a “true sale” of all of the Supplier’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivable and its Associated
Rights, and IBM GF shall take title to such Purchased Receivable and its Associated Rights without recourse to the Supplier, except in the event that such Purchased Receivable becomes a Recourse Receivable. Subject to the terms of this Agreement IBM
GF shall bear the credit, funding, and operational risks, and all related risks of ownership, arising from the purchase of Purchased Receivables under this Agreement. 
 2.4 Recharacterization As noted in Section 2.3, the parties hereto intend that IBM GF’s purchase of the Purchased Receivables shall constitute an absolute and “true sale,” conveying good
title, free and clear of any liens other than Permitted Encumbrances. In the event, it is determined that the transactions evidenced hereby and by the other Program Documents constitute a loan and not a purchase and sale, then (a) IBM GF shall
cease purchasing any additional Receivables, (b) this Agreement shall constitute a security 

  

 5 








 
agreement under applicable law, and (c) the Supplier does hereby grant IBM GF a first priority perfected security interest in and to all of the
Supplier’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Purchased Receivables and their Associated Rights to secure the obligations of the Supplier hereunder. 
 2.5 Nature of Purchased Receivable Each Purchased Receivable constitutes an “account,” “chattel paper,” or “general intangible,” as
such terms are defined in the UCC. 
 3.0 SALES AND PURCHASES WITHIN CREDIT LIMITS 
 3.1 Supplier Offers From the Commencement Date until either this Agreement is terminated or IBM GF at its option declines to purchase Receivables following breach of this Agreement by the Supplier (until such
breach is remedied to the sole and absolute satisfaction of IBM GF) the Supplier shall on the terms of this Agreement offer to sell to IBM GF, at the Purchase Price, all Receivables owing by each Buyer. 
 3.2 IBM GF Acceptances IBM GF shall, if there is Credit Availability, accept the Supplier’s offer to sell Receivables on the terms of this Agreement and,
subject only to the Supplier’s obligations to repurchase Purchased Receivables under this Agreement, all risk of non-payment of such Purchased Receivables, and all risk of ownership with respect to such Purchased Receivable, shall pass to IBM
GF on the date of issue stated on the Supplier Invoice. 
 3.3 Credit Limit and Credit Availability IBM GF shall have the right to determine, in its
sole and absolute discretion, whether to make any Credit Limit available for any Buyer under the Program. The Supplier shall be responsible for verifying the amount of Credit Availability in accordance with Schedule B before issuing any Supplier
Invoice and IBM GF shall not be liable for any failure to effect such verification. IBM GF shall be under no obligation to purchase Receivables where to do so would cause the amount of Credit Availability for the Buyer at any time to be exceeded.

 3.4 Change of Credit Limit If IBM GF increases or decreases the amount of a Credit Limit it will communicate such change to the Supplier by notice
in writing. If the change is a decrease in the Credit Limit amount, IBM GF shall be liable to continue to purchase Receivables issued by the Supplier for a period of 48 hours from notification to the Supplier by the Service Provider provided such
Receivables would have been within the Credit Availability for the Buyer immediately prior to such notice. 
 3.5 Credit Limit Withdrawal/Suspension
Notice IBM GF shall provide the Supplier as soon as practicable with written notice (to the address specified in Schedule B) if IBM GF at any time withdraws or suspends its Credit Limit or Credit Availability for any Buyer (so that such Credit
Limit and Credit Availability are zero). Any shipment made by the Supplier to the Buyer on any day after the date of receipt of such notice shall be at the risk of the Supplier and IBM GF shall not be obligated to purchase the relevant
Receivable. 
 3.6 Payment for Purchased Receivables IBM GF shall pay the Settlement Amount in cleared funds to the bank account of the
Supplier stated in Schedule A on the Supplier Settlement Date. Payments shall be made by electronic bank transfer or as otherwise agreed between the parties. 
 3.7 Currency Transactions between the Supplier and IBM GF under this Agreement in relation to any Receivable shall be in the currency of that Receivable as set forth in the Supplier Invoice and described in Schedule A. 
 3.8 Program Fees IBM GF shall send an invoice to the Supplier for Program Fees (by the 8th day of each month) in respect of all Supplier Invoices included in Funding Reports received by IBM GF in the preceding month. Program Fees shall be calculated
as a one time charge for each Supplier Invoice on the terms of Schedule A. IBM GF’s invoices for Program Fees shall be payable within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Supplier.

IBM GF and the Supplier. It is expressly understood that such other terms shall be in addition to, or in replacement of, the terms specified in Schedule A and, if in replacement of, shall not replace on a permanent basis the terms specified in

 7.0 DISPUTES WITH BUYERS 
 7.1 Dispute
Reporting The Supplier shall promptly notify the Service Provider in writing of any Non-Credit Dispute or any other allegation by the Buyer relating to its liability for or the amount of any Purchased Receivable or any right of set off arising
in the Buyer’s favour that will or may affect the Buyer’s obligations under the Buyer Agreement. 
 7.2 Dispute Handing The Supplier
acknowledges that IBM GF does not have the right to conduct or remedy a Non-Credit Dispute and agrees that it will take the same approach to resolving any issue giving rise to a disputed Purchased Receivable as it would if it were for its own
account (which approach shall be at least commercially reasonable) and so as to establish whether there is or is not a Non-Credit Dispute and the reason for the Purchased Receivable being disputed. The Supplier shall promptly use commercially
reasonable efforts (consistent with past practices) to resolve the relevant Non-Credit Dispute issues, to keep IBM GF informed and to cooperate with IBM GF where required by IBM GF in relation to such issues.

 8.1 Receivables Repurchase If a Purchased Receivable becomes a Recourse Receivable, (a) the party who makes the determination that such Purchased Receivable has become a Recourse Receivable will
immediately notify the other Party in writing and specifically identify such Recourse Receivable and the event or condition which has caused it to become a Recourse Receivable; (b) IBM GF will sell such Recourse Receivable to the Supplier,
without any warranty (except for title to the extent previously transferred by the Supplier to IBM GF) or recourse, at the next occurring Supplier Settlement Date; and (c) the Supplier will repurchase such Recourse Receivables on such Supplier
Settlement Date by paying the Repurchase Price to IBM GF in cash. Any sums of money received by IBM GF from a Buyer and applied to a Recourse Receivable which has been repurchased by the Supplier shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Supplier and promptly transferred to the Supplier by IBM GF either in cash or, at IBM GF’s option, added to the Settlement Amount payable to IBM GF on the next Supplier Settlement Date. The Supplier’s obligation to pay the Repurchase Price
shall be absolute and not conditional on the existence of the Recourse Receivable or any Associated Right (except to the extent the non-existence or impairment of such Recourse Receivable or Associated Rights is caused, directly or indirectly, by
the action or inaction of IBM GF or its affiliates, including any Service Provider).

have the right (but not the obligation) to repurchase such Returned Goods by providing written notice of such election within 15 days after receipt of the applicable Return Notice. The purchase price for any such Returned Goods shall be the then
applicable “fair market value” of such Returned Goods (as reasonably determined by the Supplier), plus any applicable taxes, packaging and shipping charges. The return of any Returned Products shall in all other respects be in accordance
with the Supplier’s standard return policies (as set forth in the applicable Master Purchase Agreement or Supplier Terms and Conditions (which Supplier shall disclose to IBM GF if relevant). Any amounts payable to IBM GF for any Returned Goods
repurchased by the Supplier hereunder shall be paid in cash.

 9.3 Continuation of Rights At IBM GF’s sole discretion, upon termination, any existing Credit Limit shall automatically and without notice be withdrawn. Such

completed.
