This RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of March 26, 2018, by and among SANMINA CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, and any other seller from time to time party hereto (each, in such capacity, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”), and as servicers (each, in such capacity, a “Servicer” and collectively, the “Servicers”), SANMINA CORPORATION, as guarantor (in such capacity the “Guarantor”), THE BANK OF TOKYO-MITSUBISHI UFJ, LTD. (“BTMU”) and each other buyer from time to time party hereto (each, in such capacity, a “Buyer” and collectively, the “Buyers”), and BTMU as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, each Seller desires to sell certain of its Receivables from time to time, and the Buyers may be willing to purchase from each Seller such Receivables, in which case the terms set forth herein shall apply to such purchase.  Each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in, or by reference in, Exhibit A hereto, and the interpretive provisions set out in Exhibit A hereto shall be applied in the interpretation of this Agreement.
Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1.1.    Sale and Purchase.
(a)Sales of Receivables.  From time to time during the term of this Agreement, one or more Sellers may submit to the Administrative Agent a request (a “Purchase Request”) via the PrimeRevenue System that the Buyers purchase from such Seller or Sellers the Proposed Receivables described in such Purchase Request on the proposed Purchase Date indicated therein; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (i) the PrimeRevenue System is not operational or is otherwise offline or (ii) the Administrative Agent has, in its discretion, instructed the Sellers that the PrimeRevenue System is no longer available for use, then such Seller or Sellers may deliver a Purchase Request to the Administrative Agent in substantially the form of Schedule I attached hereto, and this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted accordingly, mutatis mutandis.  
(b)If received by 12:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Buyers in writing in their sole and absolute discretion) on a Business Day from such Seller, by no later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to by the Buyers in writing in their sole and absolute discretion) on such date, the Administrative Agent shall transmit such Purchase Request to each Buyer having a Pro Rata Share in any Proposed Receivables described in such Purchase Request, together with an estimate prepared by the Administrative Agent of the Purchase Price for such Proposed Receivables, and the Pro Rata Share of each such Buyer.  The applicable Buyers, in their sole and absolute discretion, may elect to accept or reject a Purchase Request. If the applicable Buyers, in their sole and absolute discretion, accept a Purchase Request, then such Buyers shall purchase, and such Seller or Sellers shall sell, all of each applicable Seller’s right, title and interest (but none of such Seller’s underlying obligations to the applicable Account Debtor) with respect to such Proposed Receivables as of the Purchase Date to such Buyers to the extent of each Buyer’s Pro Rata Share of each such Proposed Receivable (all such Proposed Receivables, once sold and purchased hereunder, collectively the “Purchased Receivables”).  For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that a Buyer’s Pro Rata Share of any particular Proposed

Receivable may be zero because such Buyer does not have a Designated Percentage with respect to the Account Debtor related to such Proposed Receivable.  
(c)UNCOMMITTED ARRANGEMENT. EACH SELLER AND THE BUYERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS AN UNCOMMITTED ARRANGEMENT, THAT NO SELLER HAS PAID, OR IS REQUIRED TO PAY, A COMMITMENT FEE OR COMPARABLE FEE TO ANY BUYER. SALES OF PROPOSED RECEIVABLES BY A SELLER SHALL BE AT SUCH SELLER’S SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION. PURCHASES OF PROPOSED RECEIVABLES BY ANY BUYER SHALL BE AT SUCH BUYER’S SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION.  
(d)Conditions to Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective at such time as each of the conditions precedent set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement has been satisfied to the satisfaction of each of the Administrative Agent and each Buyer.
(e)Conditions Precedent to Each Purchase.  Notwithstanding the otherwise uncommitted nature of this Agreement, under no circumstances will any Buyer purchase any portion of any Proposed Receivable unless:
(i)    the Administrative Agent has received a Purchase Request via the PrimeRevenue System (or, if applicable, in physical form in substantially the form of Schedule I attached hereto) with respect to the Proposed Receivables at least two (2) Business Days (or less, if the Administrative Agent and each Buyer holding a Designated Percentage with respect to each Account Debtor appearing on such Purchase Request, so agrees) prior to the applicable Purchase Date, together with any such additional supporting documentation that the Administrative Agent or any Buyer may have reasonably requested;
(ii)    the applicable Buyers have accepted such Purchase Request with respect to such Proposed Receivable and notified the Administrative Agent thereof;
(iii)    no Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and no Servicer Termination Event shall exist immediately following the Buyers’ purchase of such Proposed Receivables;
(iv)    each of the representations and warranties made by each Seller, Servicer and the Guarantor in Exhibit C to this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents is true and correct in all material respects as of such Purchase Date or, in the case of any representation or warranty which speaks as to a particular date or period, as of that particular date or period;
(v)    each Proposed Receivable is an Eligible Receivable; and
(vi)    immediately following the sale and purchase of such Proposed Receivable, (A) the Outstanding Purchase Amount will not exceed the Maximum Outstanding Purchase Amount, (B) the Outstanding Purchase Amount with respect to the Purchased Receivables payable by any Account Debtor will not exceed such Account Debtor’s Purchase Sublimit and (C) the Outstanding Purchase Amount with respect to any Buyer will not exceed the Buyer’s Facility Share applicable to such Buyer.
Each delivery of a Purchase Request or submission of a Purchase Request via the PrimeRevenue System by any Seller shall be deemed a representation and warranty by each applicable Seller that the foregoing conditions set forth in subclauses (iii)-(vi) of this clause (e) are satisfied and each of the statements set forth on such Purchase Request are true and correct as of the applicable Purchase Date with respect to the Proposed

Receivables described therien or submitted onto the PrimeRevenue System, as applicable, with respect to such Purchase Request.
(f)Purchase Price. The purchase price for each Purchased Receivable purchased on any Purchase Date shall equal (i) the Net Invoice Amount of such Purchased Receivable, minus (ii) the Discount (such amount herein referred to as the “Purchase Price”).  Each Buyer shall transfer its Pro Rata Share of the Purchase Price (the “Funded Amount”) with respect to each Purchased Receivable by depositing such Funded Amount into the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds denominated in U.S. dollars no later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) on the applicable Purchase Date.  Upon receipt of all of the amounts set forth in the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Buyers, shall pay the Purchase Price for each Purchased Receivable on such Purchase Date to the applicable Seller, less any other amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers hereunder on such Purchase Date.  Upon such payment each such Purchased Receivable shall be automatically sold by the applicable Seller to the applicable Buyers without any further action or notice by any party. 
(g)Non-Funding Buyers.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received a Buyer’s Funded Amount in connection with each Proposed Receivable to be funded by such Buyer on any Purchase Date in accordance with clause (f) above when required therein (each such Buyer being a “Non-Funding Buyer”), the purchase of any Proposed Receivables in which such Non-Funding Buyer has a Pro Rata Share shall be deemed automatically be rejected by all applicable Buyers (each. an “Auto Rejected Receivable”); provided that any Proposed Receivables in which such Non-Funding Buyer has does not have a Pro Rata Share shall not be deemed automatically rejected and shall continue to be funded by the Administrative Agent.  In the case of any Proposed Receivables that are also Auto Rejected Receivables, (i) the Administrative Agent shall promptly return any related Funded Amounts delivered by the other Buyers having a Pro Rata Share under such Auto Rejected Receivables to such Buyers and (ii) if mutually agreed among the Sellers, the Administrative Agent and the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers (as defined below), the Sellers may submit a new Purchase Request in accordance with Section 1(a) containing only the Auto Rejected Receivables and such Auto Rejected Receivables may be purchased, according to the applicable  Modified Designated Percentages (as defined below), by the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers.   For purposes of this Section 1(g), (A) “Modified Designated Percentage Buyers” shall mean, collectively, some or all of the Buyers that have a Pro Rata Share in respect of an Auto Rejected Receivables (other than any Non-Funding Buyers) and (B) “Modified Designated Percentage” shall mean, in connection with any Proposed Receivables that are also Auto Rejected Receivables, the respective Designated Percentages corresponding to the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers from time to time agreed among the Modified Designated Percentage Buyers, the Administrative Agent and the Sellers (but in all cases representing, on an aggregate basis, 100% of each such Proposed Receivable).
(h)True Sale; No Recourse.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each purchase of the Purchased Receivables is made without recourse to any Seller and no Seller shall have liability to the Administrative Agent or any Buyer for the failure of any Account Debtor to pay any Purchased Receivable when it is due and payable under the terms applicable thereto.  The parties hereto have structured each transaction contemplated by this Agreement as an absolute and irrevocable sale, and each Buyer, the Guarantor and each Seller agree to treat each such transaction as a “true sale” for all purposes under Applicable Law and accounting principles, including, without limitation, in their respective books, records, computer files, tax returns (federal, state and local), regulatory and governmental filings (and shall reflect such sale in their respective financial statements).  Each Seller and the Guarantor will advise all Persons inquiring about the ownership of any Purchased Receivable that all Purchased Receivables have been sold to the 


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


2







Buyers.  In the event that, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties hereto, any purchase of Purchased Receivables is not characterized as a sale, each Seller shall, effective as of the date hereof, be deemed to have granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Buyers), and each Seller hereby does grant to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Buyers), in addition to and not in substitution for the rights and remedies described in Section 6(f) hereof, a first-priority security interest in and to any and all present and future Purchased Receivables and the proceeds thereof to secure the payment of all obligations of such Seller arising in connection with this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents, whether now or hereafter existing.  Each Seller hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, on behalf of each Buyer, to file such financing statements (and continuation statements with respect to such financing statements when applicable) as may be necessary to perfect the Administrative Agent’s and each Buyer’s security interest and ownership under the UCC, with applicable collateral description in any such financing statements designating all Purchased Receivables, together with the rights granted to Administrative Agent hereunder and proceeds thereof.  With respect to such grant of a security interest, the Administrative Agent and the Buyers may at its option exercise from time to time any and all rights and remedies available to it hereunder, under the UCC or otherwise.  For purposes of this clause (h), each Seller agrees that ten (10) Business Days shall be reasonable prior notice to such Seller of the date of any public or private sale or other disposition of all or any of the Purchased Receivables.
(i)Pro Rata Shares.  Purchases in respect of each Proposed Receivable shall be made by the Buyers simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares for such Proposed Receivable.
(j)Several Obligations of Buyers.  The obligations of the Buyers hereunder are several and not joint, and no Buyer shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Buyer hereunder.  Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by the Buyers pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity.



2.    No Administrative Agent or Buyer Liability.   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Buyers shall not be in any way responsible for the performance of any Contract and such Persons shall not have any obligation to intervene in any Dispute arising out of the performance of any contract giving rise to any Purchased Receivable.  All obligations of a Seller as seller of the goods and provider of any related services, including, without limitation, all obligations of such Seller as seller under the such Contract, all representations and warranty obligations, all servicing obligations, all maintenance obligations, and all delivery, transport and insurance obligations, shall be retained by such Seller.  

3.    Representations and Warranties.   Each Seller, Servicer and the Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Buyer on the date hereof and on each Purchase Date that the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit C hereto are true and correct as of the date hereof and as of each such Purchase Date or, in the case of any representation or warranty which speaks as to a particular date or period, as of that particular date or period. Each Seller represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Buyer on each Purchase Date that each Proposed Receivable included in the applicable Purchase Request is an Eligible Receivable as of such Purchase Date.



4.    Covenants.   Each Seller, Servicer, and the Guarantor agrees to perform each of the covenants set forth on Exhibit D hereto applicable to it.


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

5.    Servicing Activities.  
(a)    Appointment of Servicer.  Each Buyer appoints each Seller as its servicer and agent (each, in such capacity, a “Servicer” and collectively, the “Servicers”) for the administration and servicing of its Purchased Receivables sold by such Person to such Buyer hereunder, and each Seller hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to assume the duties and the administration and servicing obligations as a Servicer, and perform all necessary and appropriate commercial servicing and collection activities in arranging the timely payment of amounts due and owing by any Account Debtor (including the identification of the proceeds of the Purchased Receivables and related recordkeeping which shall be made available to the Administrative Agent and/or any Buyer upon its reasonable request) all in accordance with Applicable Laws, with reasonable care and diligence, including, without limitation, diligently and faithfully performing all servicing and collection actions (including, if necessary, acting as party of record in foreign jurisdictions); provided, however, that such appointment as Servicer shall not release a Seller from any of its duties, responsibilities, liabilities and obligations resulting from or arising hereunder.  In connection with its servicing obligations, each Servicer will perform its duties under the Contract related to the Purchased Receivables with the same care and applying the same policies as it applies to its own Receivables generally and would exercise and apply if it owned the Purchased Receivables and shall act to maximize Collections thereon. 
(b)    Transfer of Collections to and by Administrative Agent.  Subject to Sections 5(c), 5(d), 5(e) and 6(a) below, each Seller and Servicer covenant and agree to deposit in the Administrative Agent’s Account all Collections and other amounts received by any Seller or Servicer (or any of their respective Affiliates) with respect to Purchased Receivables without adjustment, setoff or deduction of any kind or nature no later than the first Settlement Date occurring after such Collections are received and identified as such in accordance with Section 5(e).  Until remitted to the Administrative Agent’s Account, such Seller or Servicer will hold such funds in trust as the Buyers’ exclusive property and safeguard such funds for the benefit of the Buyers.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Buyer at such address as such Buyer shall indicate in writing, such Buyer’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments due hereunder to such Buyer, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by the Administrative Agent.  If received prior to 3:00 p.m. New York City time (or such later time as agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) on any Business Day, such amounts shall be transferred to the Buyers on such Business Day.  If received after such time, such amounts shall be transferred to the Buyers on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent may, at its discretion from time to time, setoff and deduct from such payments the full amount (or any partial amount available thereunder) of the applicable obligations due to the Administrative Agent from the Buyers.
(c)    Ratable Sharing.  If any Buyer shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise for any reason, obtain payment in respect of any Purchased Receivable or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Buyer receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount payable under any Purchased Receivable to such Buyer greater than its Pro Rata Share would warrant as provided herein, then such Buyer receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash) participations in the other Buyers’ interests in the Purchased Receivables (not in excess of the applicable Purchase Price thereof), or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Buyers ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount owing to them; provided, that: (a) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the Purchase Price

4







restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (b) the provisions of this Section 5(c) shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by a Seller or Servicer pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms hereof, (B) any payment obtained by a Buyer as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Purchased Receivables to any assignee or participant, or (C) any closing fees payable to the Administrative Agent and documented separately from this Agreement in any Agent Fee Letter or otherwise. 
(d)    Misdirected Payments.  If, following receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Buyer of any payment (whether from any Seller, Servicer or Account Debtor) initially deemed a Collection in respect of Purchased Receivable, such payment is later identified as constituting payment in respect of a Receivable which is not a Purchased Receivable, the Administrative Agent or such Buyer, as applicable, will return such payment to the applicable Seller upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Buyer that such amounts do not constitute Collections on Purchased Receivables.
(e)    Identifying Collections. Pursuant to its servicing obligations under Section 5(a) hereof, each Servicer shall be responsible for identifying, matching and reconciling any payments received from Account Debtors with the Receivable associated with such payment.  If any payment is received from an Account Debtor, and such payment is not identified by such Account Debtor as relating to a particular Receivable and cannot otherwise be reasonably identified as relating to a particular Receivable within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof, such payment shall be applied against unpaid Purchased Receivables and Receivables not constituting Purchased Receivables of such Account Debtor in chronological order.
(f)    No Changes to Receivables.  Except as otherwise expressly provided for in Section 6(a) hereof, no Seller or Servicer shall compromise or settle any Purchased Receivable or extend the Maturity Date with respect thereto without the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Buyer who has acquired any interest in any such Purchased Receivables in accordance with this Agreement.  
(g)    Reconciliation Report.  Concurrently with (a) each transfer of funds by any Seller to the Administrative Agent’s Account on a Settlement Date and (b) each request by any Seller for a return of payments received by the Administrative Agent or a Buyer which do not represent Collections on Purchased Receivables in accordance with Section 5(d), the Servicers shall provide to the Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, a full reconciliation of all Collections with respect to each Purchased Receivable of an Account Debtor for which Collections were received (each, a “Reconciliation Report”).  The Servicers shall be responsible for submitting the Reconciliation Report to the Administrative Agent via the PrimeRevenue System; provided, however, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if (i) the PrimeRevenue System is not operational or is otherwise offline or (ii) the Administrative Agent has, in its discretion, instructed a Servicer that the PrimeRevenue System is no longer available for use, then such Servicer may deliver a written Reconciliation Report to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Buyers), and this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted accordingly, mutatis mutandis.  
(h)    Non-Payment Report.  In the event a Purchased Receivable has not been paid in full by the date that is seven (7) days after the Maturity Date therefor (an “Overdue Receivable”), the applicable Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the cause of such payment delay or non-payment, including whether it is due to a Dispute, and it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (for delivery to the Buyer) by no later than fourteen (14) days after such Maturity Date, a certification and report (a “Non-Payment Report”) identifying the Overdue Receivable and the Account Debtor thereof and describing in reasonable detail the cause of such non-payment, including whether a Dispute exists with respect to such 


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


5







Overdue Receivable, or certifying that such cause is unknown.  In the event a Purchased Receivable has not been paid in full by the date that is thirty (30) days after the Maturity Date therefor and no Non-Payment Report with respect thereto has been delivered or the Non-Payment Report delivered with respect thereto does not report a Dispute or states that the cause of such payment delay or non-payment is unknown (a “Non-Payment Event”), the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion (or shall, at the direction of the Required Buyers) (a) contact such Account Debtor by phone or in person to discuss the status of such Overdue Receivable and to inquire whether such payment delay or non-payment is due to a Dispute and when payment can be expected and/or (b) take any other lawful action to collect such Purchased Receivable directly from such Account Debtor. If the Account Debtor advises the Administrative Agent of the existence of a Dispute, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Seller of such Overdue Receivable that the Account Debtor has asserted a Dispute.
(i)    Servicer Indemnification.  Each Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Buyers and their respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, shareholders, counsel, employees and each of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all damages, claims, losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) arising out of or resulting from or related to (i) any failure by any Servicer to perform its duties or obligations as Servicer hereunder in accordance with this Agreement or to comply in all material respects with any Applicable Law in connection with the Transaction Documents or any Purchased Receivables, (ii) any breach of any Servicer’s (in its capacity as Servicer) representations, warranties or covenants under any Transaction Document or (iii) any claim brought by any Person other than an Indemnified Person arising from any Servicer’s servicing or collection activities with respect to the Purchased Receivables; provided, however, that in all events there shall be excluded from the foregoing indemnification any damages, claims, losses, costs, expenses or liabilities to the extent resulting solely from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Person as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) the failure of an Account Debtor to pay any sum due under its Purchased Receivables by reason of the financial or credit condition of such Account Debtor (including, without limitation, the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the applicable Account Debtor), or  (z) any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Buyer without the consent of the Servicer, at any time prior to the Servicer’s removal as Servicer with respect to such Purchased Receivable in accordance with clause (j) of this Section 5 to compromise or settle its claim against the applicable Account Debtor in respect of any such Purchased Receivable.  Any amount due and payable pursuant to this clause shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the first Settlement Date following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.
(j)    Replacement of Servicers. Following the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the direction of the Required Buyers, shall, replace any or all Servicers with itself or any agent for the Administrative Agent with respect to any and all Purchased Receivables.  Sellers shall be responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such replacement and shall promptly reimburse the Administrative Agent with respect to same. Any amount due and payable pursuant to this clause shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the first Settlement Date following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.
(k)    The Administrative Agent as Attorney-in-Fact. Sellers hereby appoint the Administrative Agent as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Sellers, with full power of substitution, coupled with an interest, and hereby authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent in the name and on 


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


6







behalf of Sellers at any time following removal of any Seller as Servicer pursuant to clause (j) of this Section 5, to take such actions, and execute and deliver such documents, as the Administrative Agent deems necessary or advisable in connection with any applicable Purchased Receivable (i) to perfect the purchase and sale of such Purchased Receivable, including, without limitation, to send a notice of such purchase and sale to the Account Debtor of the transfers contemplated hereby and the sale of such Purchased Receivable or (ii) to make collection of and otherwise realize the benefits of such Purchased Receivable.  At any time that any Seller is no longer serving as Servicer hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to bring suit, in the Administrative Agent’s or any Seller’s name, and generally have all other rights of an owner and holder respecting each applicable Purchased Receivable, including without limitation the right to accelerate or extend the time of payment, settle, compromise, release in whole or in part any amounts owing on such Purchased Receivables and issue credits in its own name.  At any time following removal of any Seller as Servicer, the Administrative Agent may endorse or sign the Administrative Agent’s or any Seller’s name on any checks or other instruments with respect to any applicable Purchased Receivables.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any actions taken by it in accordance with this Section unless such actions constitute the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.  This power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and shall not expire until the Final Collection Date.
(l)    Netting of Payments. The parties hereto agree that on each Settlement Date, for administrative convenience, the parties may net the required payments hereunder with respect to (a) the obligation of the Buyers in respect the payment of the applicable Purchase Prices for any Proposed Receivables that are purchased on such Settlement Date, if any, and (b)  any and all obligations of the Sellers and the Servicers to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers (including with respect to the transfer of any applicable Collections and the repurchase of Purchased Receivables in accordance with Section 6(b)). On each such Settlement Date in which such election is made by the parties, to the extent that the obligations of the Sellers and the Servicers to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers described in the foregoing sentence exceed the obligations of the Buyers to the Sellers described in the foregoing sentence, the Sellers or the Servicers shall transfer the net amount to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4(b); to the extent that the obligations of the Buyers to the Sellers described in the foregoing sentence exceed the obligations of the Sellers and the Servicers to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers in the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent shall transfer the net amount to the Sellers in accordance with Section 4(g). Such amounts shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and all such determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.    



6.    Deemed Collections; Events of Repurchase; Indemnities and Setoff.
(a)    Deemed Collections. If, on any day following the Purchase Date for any Purchased Receivable, the outstanding balance of such Purchased Receivable is reduced (including to zero) or cancelled as a result of any Dilution, the applicable Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection in respect of such Purchased Receivable in the amount of such Dilution.  Any amount deemed to have been received under this Section 6(a) shall constitute a “Deemed Collection”.  In the event of any such Deemed Collection, the applicable Seller shall deposit an amount equal to such Deemed Collection into the Administrative Agent’s Account by no later than the first Settlement Date to occur after such Seller or Servicer obtains knowledge or notice thereof. 
(b)    Events of Repurchase. If any of the following events (each, an “Event of Repurchase”) occurs with respect to a Purchased Receivable:


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


7







(i)    such Purchased Receivable was not an Eligible Receivable at the time of purchase; 
(ii)    any other representation or warranty pertaining to such Purchased Receivable deemed to have been made by a Seller pursuant to Section 1(e) in connection with Seller’s delivery or submission of the Purchase Request in which such Purchased Receivable was included shall be inaccurate, incorrect or untrue in any material respect on the date as of which it was made or deemed to be made; or 
(iii)    an Adverse Claim or a Dispute has arisen with respect to any Purchased Receivable;
then, the applicable Seller shall deliver notice thereof to the Administrative Agent within five (5) days of becoming aware of the Event of Repurchase and, at the time, in the manner and otherwise as hereinafter set forth, repurchase such Purchased Receivable (or, if the Account Debtor related to such Purchased Receivable is subject to an Insolvency Event, then with respect to an Event of Repurchase caused by a Dispute, instead of repurchasing such Purchased Receivable, the applicable Seller shall instead make a Deemed Collection payment in the disputed portion and the Buyers will convey back to the Sellers all of their right, title and interest in such disputed portion) at the Administrative Agent’s option and demand.  The repurchase price for a Purchased Receivable shall (provided that the Outstanding Purchase Amount is greater than zero) be the amount equal to the Outstanding Purchase Amount relating to such Purchased Receivable (or, if applicable, a proportionate part thereof) at such time and shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds on the first Settlement Date following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent; provided, that for purposes of recalculating such repurchase price, any reductions to the Outstanding Purchase Amount pursuant to Section 5(h)(iii) shall be disregarded.  Upon the payment in full of the repurchase price with respect to a Purchased Receivable (or portion), such Purchased Receivable (or portion) shall hereby be, and be deemed to be, repurchased by such Seller from the Buyers without recourse to or warranty by the Buyers, whereupon such Purchased Receivable shall no longer be deemed a Purchased Receivable (or portion) and the Buyers shall have no further right, title or interest in or to such Purchased Receivable (or portion).
(c)    Seller Indemnification. Each Seller hereby agrees, jointly and severally with each other Seller, to indemnify each Indemnified Person and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts arising out of or resulting from or related to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the ownership, maintenance or funding, directly or indirectly, of the Purchased Receivable (or any of them) sold by such Seller or otherwise arising out of or resulting from the actions or inactions of such Seller or any of its Affiliates, as a result of:  (i) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by such Seller (or any of its officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document which shall have been incorrect when made; (ii) the failure by such Seller to perform any of its covenants or obligations under any Transaction Document; (iii) the failure by such Seller or any Purchased Receivable or Contract generated, signed or accepted by such Seller to comply in all material respects with any Applicable Law; (iv) the use of the Purchase Price proceeds by such Seller; (v) the failure to vest in the Buyers ownership of each Purchased Receivable and all Collections in respect thereof sold by such Seller, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (and any attempt by any Person to void, rescind or set-aside any such transfer); (vi) any Dispute, Dilution or any other claim resulting from the services performed or merchandise furnished in connection with any Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller or the furnishing or failure to furnish such services or merchandise or relating to such Seller’s collection activities with respect to any Purchased Receivable, (vii) any products liability claim or personal injury or property damage suit or other similar or related claim or action of whatever sort arising out of or in connection with the services

performed or merchandise furnished in connection with any Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller; (viii) the failure to vest in the Administrative Agent a first priority perfected security interest (within the meaning of the UCC) in, each Purchased Receivable and all Collections in respect thereof sold by such Seller, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (and any attempt by any Person to void, rescind or set-aside any such transfer); (ix) the commingling by such Seller of Collections at any time with other funds of such Seller or any other Person or (x) the existence of any liens or security interests described in clauses (iii) or (iv) of the proviso to the definition of Adverse Claim or the exercise of rights by any Person with respect thereto; provided, however, that in all events there shall be excluded from the foregoing indemnification any Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting solely from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of an Indemnified Person as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) the failure of an Account Debtor to pay any sum due under its Purchased Receivables by reason of the financial or credit condition of such Account Debtor (including, without limitation, the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to the applicable Account Debtor), or (z) any action taken by the Administrative Agent or any Buyer without the consent of the Servicer, at any time prior to the Servicer’s removal as Servicer with respect to such Purchased Receivable in accordance with clause (j) of Section 5 to compromise or settle its claim against the applicable Account Debtor in respect of any such Purchased Receivable.  Any amount due and payable pursuant to this section shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Buyer.  
(d)    Tax Indemnification.  All payments on the Purchased Receivables from the Account Debtors will be made free and clear of any present or future taxes, withholdings or other deductions whatsoever which arise by reason of the sale of the Purchased Receivables to the Buyers (“Sale Transaction Taxes”) or relating to the underlying transactions between the applicable Seller and the related Account Debtors that gave rise to such Purchased Receivables (“Prior Transaction Taxes”).  Each Seller, jointly and severally with each other Seller, will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Buyer and hold the Administrative Agent and each Buyer harmless for any Sale Transaction Taxes and Prior Transaction Taxes.  Further, each Seller shall pay and indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and each Buyer harmless from and against, any Sale Transaction Taxes or Prior Transaction Taxes that may at any time be asserted with respect to any Purchased Receivable sold by such Seller (including any sales, occupational, excise, gross receipts, personal property, privilege or license taxes, or withholdings, but not including taxes imposed upon the Administrative Agent or any Buyer with respect to its overall net income including gross receipts, franchise, doing business or similar taxes) and costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in defending against the same, whether arising by reason of the acts to be performed by such Seller hereunder or otherwise.  Any amount due and payable pursuant to this section shall be paid to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds by no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day following demand therefor by the Administrative Agent or the applicable Buyer.
(e)    Increased Costs. If a Buyer shall determine in its reasonable discretion that any Regulatory Change regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Buyer’s capital or assets or increasing its amount of required liquidity as a consequence of (i) this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) any of such Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (iii) such Buyer’s purchase or the ownership, maintenance or funding of any Purchased Receivables hereunder, to a level below that which such Buyer would have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Buyer’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, from time to time, and thereafter, the Administrative Agent may deliver to the Sellers, on behalf of such Buyer, a certificate describing such increased costs and indicating the necessary increase in each applicable Account Debtor Discount Rate to compensate for such increased costs.  Such increased Account Debtor Discount Rates shall automatically become effective with respect to any sales of Proposed

9







Receivables occurring on Purchase Dates commencing ten (10) Business Days after delivery to the Sellers of such increased cost certificate (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that during such period no Buyer shall be under any obligation whatsoever to make any purchase of any Purchased Receivable).  A certificate as to such increased costs submitted the applicable Sellers by or on behalf of the applicable Buyer shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes as to the calculations therein, absent manifest error. 
(f)    Setoff.  Each Seller, Servicer and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably instruct and authorize the Administrative Agent and each Buyer, at any time that a Servicer Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, to setoff, appropriate and apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly waived) any deposits and any other indebtedness held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Buyer, as applicable, or any branch, agency or Affiliate thereof, including the payment of the Purchase Price for any Proposed Receivables, to, or for the account of, any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor against amounts owing by each Seller, Servicer or the Guarantor hereunder or under any other Transaction Document. 
(g)    UCC.  The rights granted to Administrative Agent hereunder are in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded to the Administrative Agent as a secured party under the UCC.



7.    Guaranty.  
(a)    Unconditional Guaranty. For value received, the Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees on demand (after notice thereof by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the complete and timely payment and performance of any obligations of each Additional Seller that joins this Agreement pursuant to Section 15 hereof (each such Additional Seller, in its capacity as a Servicer, an “Additional Servicer”) and each Additional Servicer arising under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, the obligations of each Additional Seller and each Additional Servicer to make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Buyer as set forth in Section 5, Section 6, Section 11 and Section 12 of this Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Guarantor shall have no obligations hereunder with respect to any non-payment of any Purchased Receivable resulting solely from the failure of an Account Debtor to pay any sum due under such Purchased Receivable because of the financial or credit condition of such Account Debtor (including, without limitation, the occurrence of an Insolvency Event with respect to such Account Debtor).   
(b)    Guaranty of Payment; Waiver of Defenses.  This Section 7 represents an irrevocable, absolute, unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance, and is in no way conditional or contingent upon any requirement to bring action against any Additional Seller or any Additional Servicer, or to perfect or enforce any security or upon any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever.  The liability of the Guarantor hereunder is independent of and not in consideration of or contingent upon the liability of any other Person under this or any similar instrument and the release of, or cancellation by, any party to this or a similar instrument shall not act to release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder.  It shall not be necessary for the Administrative Agent or any Buyer (and the Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by Applicable Law any rights that the Guarantor may have to require Buyer), in order to enforce the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against any Additional Seller, any Additional Servicer or any other Person, (ii) enforce the Administrative Agent’s rights against any collateral that shall ever have been given to secure performance under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) exhaust any remedies available to the Administrative Agent against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure performance under

10







the Receivables Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (iv) resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the obligations of any Additional Seller, any Additional Servicer or any other Person.  The liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (and the Guarantor hereby waives any and all defenses arising out of):  (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any obligation of any Additional Seller or Additional Servicer under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document as against any such Person, (ii) any amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) any challenge to, or lack of validity of, any Additional Seller’s ownership interest (immediately prior to each purchase thereof by the Buyers) in the Purchased Receivables, (iv) any other defense it may have as a guarantor or a surety generally or otherwise based upon suretyship or impairment of collateral and (v) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense, either in equity or at law, available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor (other than the defense of performance and/or payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations).  
(c)    Corporate Existence.  The Guarantor will comply in all material respects with all Applicable Laws and preserve and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises, qualifications and privileges.  
(d)    Expenses.  In addition to any Guaranteed Obligations it may be required to pay pursuant to this Section 7, the Guarantor hereby agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and (as appropriate) each Buyer on demand for:
(i)    all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) the Administrative Agent or any Buyer incurs in connection with the enforcement of this Section 7, or for any breach of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by the Guarantor (including all such expenses incurred during any work-out or negotiation in respect of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder); and
(ii)    all stamp and other similar taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.
(e)    Further Assurances.  The Guarantor will, at its expense, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to effectuate the terms of this Section 7 and the performance of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.
(f)    Payments.  Any payments made by the Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim for the amount of any taxes, levies or imposts by any taxing authority thereof or therein (but not including taxes imposed upon the Administrative Agent or any Buyer with respect to its overall net income including gross receipts, franchise, doing business or similar taxes).
(g)    Compliance Programs. The Guarantor and its Subsidiaries have conducted and will conduct their  businesses in compliance with applicable Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions, and have maintained and will maintain policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with such laws.



8.    Administrative Agent.

11







(i)    Each Buyer hereby irrevocably designates and appoints The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as the “Administrative Agent” hereunder and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent hereby and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties other than those expressly set forth herein or any fiduciary relationship with any Buyer, and no implied obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement, or otherwise exist, against the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any obligation to, or relationship of trust or agency with, any Buyer, any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof or any other Transaction Document, in no event shall the Administrative Agent ever be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to the provision of any Transaction Document or Applicable Law.
(ii)    Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Buyers, and none of any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise under any of the provisions of this Section 8 (other than as provided in Section 8(h)), except that this Section 8 shall not affect any obligations that the Administrative Agent or any Buyer may have to any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor under the other provisions hereof.
(iii)    In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as the agent of the Buyers and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor or any of their successors and assigns.
(iv)    Each Buyer hereby appoints the Administrative Agent as its representative for purposes of Section 9-502(a)(2) of the UCC in order so that the Administrative Agent may act as secured party of record under any such UCC financing statements to perfect such Buyer’s ownership interest in the Purchased Receivables.
(v)    With respect to any information or notice that is provided to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement for distribution to the Buyers, the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly distribute such information or notice to the Buyers; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to promptly distribute such information or notice to the Buyers shall neither constitute a breach of this Agreement nor give rise to any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent.
(b)    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties through agents 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 to any Buyer for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
(c)    Exculpatory Provisions.  None of the Administrative Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted (a) with the consent or at the direction of the Required Buyers or (b) in the absence of such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Buyer or other Person for (i) any recitals, representations, warranties or other statements made by any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates, (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Transaction Document, (iii) any failure of any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates to perform any obligation or 


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


12







(iv) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Section 1(d) or (e).  The Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to any Buyer to ascertain or inquire about the observance or performance of any agreement contained in any Transaction Document or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates.
(d)    Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any document, other writing or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Buyers, and assurance of its indemnification, as it deems appropriate.
(e)    Actions by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall take such actions, or refrain from taking such actions, under each of the Transaction Documents with respect to the rights and remedies of Buyers, including with respect to any Purchased Receivable, in each case as may be directed by the Required Buyers; provided, until the Administrative Agent receives such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as Administrative Agent deems advisable and in the best interests of the Buyers.  The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Buyers, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Buyers and the Administrative Agent.
(f)    Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other Buyers.  Each Buyer expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Buyer and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Seller, any Servicer or the Guarantor, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent.  Each Buyer represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Buyer and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor and the Purchased Receivables and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any Transaction Document.  Except for items specifically required to be delivered hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Buyer with any information concerning any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
(g)    Administrative Agent and Affiliates.  Each of the Buyers and the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates may extend credit to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, debt, entity or other business with any Seller, any Servicer, the Guarantor or any of their Affiliates and BTMU may exercise or refrain from exercising its rights and powers as if it were not the Administrative Agent.  With respect to the purchase of the Proposed Receivables pursuant to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Buyer, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Buyer and may exercise the same as though it were not such an agent, and the terms “Buyer” and “Buyers” shall include the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Buyer.

13







(h)    Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, upon at least forty-five (45) days’ notice to the Guarantor, each Seller, each Servicer and each Buyer, resign as Administrative Agent.  If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is subject to an Insolvency Event, the Buyers (excluding the Buyer that is also the Administrative Agent at such time, if applicable) may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Guarantor and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent.  Any resignation or removal, as the case may be, shall not become effective until a successor agent is appointed by the Buyers (excluding the Buyer that is also the Administrative Agent at such time, if applicable), but with the consent of the Guarantor (provided, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and has accepted such appointment.  Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring or removed, as applicable, Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent under the Transaction Documents.  After any retiring or removed, as applicable, Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal, as applicable, hereunder, the provisions of Section 18 and this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.
(i)    Know Your Customer.  Nothing in this Agreement shall require any Buyer (including any Buyer when acting as Administrative Agent) to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any Person on behalf of any other Buyer.  Each Buyer confirms and acknowledges that it is solely responsible for such checks and verifications it is required to carry out.
(j)    Enforcement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document and without limiting Section 8(e), the authority to enforce rights and remedies of the Buyers hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents against any Person shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8(a) for the benefit of all the Buyers.
(k)    Prompt Delivery of Information.  Unless specifically required otherwise under the terms of this Agreement, to the extent the Administrative Agent receives information from the Sellers or the Servicers, which by the terms of this Agreement is “for delivery to the Buyers” or other similar terms, the Administrative Agent shall endeavor to promptly deliver such information to the Buyers; provided that the failure to do so in a timely manner shall not give rise to any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent. 



9.    Notices.   Unless otherwise provided herein, all communications by any party to any other party hereunder or any other Transaction Document shall be in a writing personally delivered or sent by a recognized overnight delivery service, or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or by e-mail to such party, as the case may be, at its address set forth below:

supporting documentation in connection herewith or therewith, such as copies of invoices not submitted via the PrimeRevenue System, may be sent by any Seller or Servicer by e-mail attachment in portable document format (.pdf).  
Each Seller, Servicer and the Guarantor agree that the Administrative Agent and the Buyers may presume the authenticity, genuineness, accuracy, completeness and due execution of any email bearing a facsimile or scanned signature resembling a signature of an authorized Person of such Seller or Servicer without further verification or inquiry by the Administrative Agent or the Buyers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and any Buyer in its sole discretion may elect not to act or rely upon such a communication and shall be entitled (but not obligated) to make inquiries or require further Seller, Servicer or Guarantor action to authenticate any such communication.
A party may change the address at which it is to receive notices hereunder by written notice in the foregoing manner given to the other parties hereto.



10.    Survival.   All covenants, representations and warranties made herein shall continue in full force and effect until the Final Collection Date.  Each Seller’s and Servicer’s obligations to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Buyer with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities shall survive until the later of (x) the Final Collection Date and (y) all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought by the Administrative Agent or a Buyer under the Transaction Documents have run.



11.    Expenses.   Each Seller hereby agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and (as appropriate) each Buyer on demand for:
(a)    (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) that the Administrative Agent incurs in connection with the preparation, negotiation, documentation and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and any amendment of or consent or waiver under any of the Transaction Documents, up to an amount of $65,000.00, (ii) all reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) that the Administrative Agent and each Buyer incur in connection with the enforcement of, or any actual or reasonably claimed breach of, this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, including all such expenses incurred during any work-out or negotiation in respect of the obligations of the Seller or Servicer hereunder; and
(b)    all stamp and other similar taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.



12.    Interest on Overdue Amounts.

13.    Governing Law.   THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, 


[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions.  The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


16







THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION, THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR PRIORITY OF THE INTERESTS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE BUYERS IN THE PURCHASED RECEIVABLES IS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK).



14.    No Non-Direct Damages.   To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Seller, each Servicer and the Guarantor shall not assert, and each such Person hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.  No Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; provided that the waiver provided for in this sentence shall not apply to damages resulting directly from such Indemnified Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment.



15.    Joinder of Additional Sellers.   At any time during the term of this Agreement, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Buyers (such consent to be granted or withheld at the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent and each Buyer), one or more additional Subsidiaries of the Guarantor (each, an “Additional Seller”), may join this Agreement as a Seller in all respects by delivering a Joinder Agreement  to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers along with such other approvals, resolutions, certificates, legal opinions and other documents as the Administrative Agent and the Buyers may reasonably request, in each case, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Buyers. Upon receipt of such Joinder Agreement and such other documents, such Additional Seller shall become a Seller hereunder, subject to the rights, duties and obligations of a Seller in all respects. 



16.    Addition of Account Debtor.   From time to time during the term of this Agreement, the Sellers and the Guarantor may request that one or more account debtors be added as an additional Account Debtor under this Agreement.

(b)    Assignment.  
(i)    Each Buyer may only assign or transfer its role as Buyer under this Agreement with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the Sellers and the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Sellers shall be required for an assignment to an Affiliate of such Buyer or, if a Servicer Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; provided further that the Sellers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless one of them shall object thereto by written notice to such Buyer within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof.

(iv)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Buyer may assign or pledge a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Buyer, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank.
