with its principal place of business located at 301 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey(the “Company”) (the
Bank and the Company collectively, “Employer”), and _______________________, an individual residing at ____________________
(“Executive”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, Executive is a valued employee
of the Bank;

 

WHEREAS, Employer wishes to ensure
that it will continue to get Executive’s undivided effort and attention;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of
the mutual promises and undertakings herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

 

1. Change in Control.

 

(a) Upon the termination of Employee’s
employment upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as herein defined), Employee shall be entitled to receive the payments provided
for under paragraph (c) hereof. In addition, if within twelve (12) months of the occurrence of a Change in Control, Employer or
its successor shall (i) relocate the Employee’s principal place of employment by more than twenty five (25) miles from its
location prior to consummation of the Change in Control, or (ii) reduce the Employee’s compensation or other benefits below
the level in effect prior to the consummation of Change in Control, then Employee shall have the right to resign employment with
the Employer or its successor and thereafter Employee shall become entitled to receive the payments provided for under paragraph
(c) below.

 

(b) A “Change in Control” shall
mean:

 

(1) a reorganization, merger, consolidation
or sale of all or

    	17

    	

    

substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any similar
transaction, in any case in which the shareholders of the Company prior to such transaction hold less than a majority of the voting
power of the resulting entity; or

 

(2) individuals who constitute the Incumbent
Board (as herein defined) of the Company cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof.

 

For these purposes, “Incumbent Board”
means the Board of Directors of the Company on the date hereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the
date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or
whose nomination for election by members or stockholders was approved by the same nominating committee serving under an Incumbent
Board, shall be considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board.

 

(c) In the event the conditions of Section
(a) above are satisfied, and Executive remains employed by the Company or the Bank through the consummation of such Change in Control
(the “Consummation Date”), Executive shall be entitled to receive a payment equal to the sum of (i) the highest annual
salary assigned to Executive by the Bank’s Board or a duly assigned committee thereof during the twenty four months prior
to the Consummation Date (as defined below) plus (ii) the highest annual bonus paid to or accrued for Executive over the twenty
four months prior to the Consummation Date. The payment shall be made to Executive in accordance with the provisions of Section
(e) hereof.

 

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof,
in no event shall any payments provided for hereunder, when combined with payments made to Executive under any other agreement
or benefit plan of Employer which are contingent upon a Change in Control, constitute an “excess parachute payment”
under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or any successor thereto, and in order to avoid such a result
the benefits provided for hereunder (or, at the discretion of the Executive, under such other agreement or benefit plan) will be
reduced, if necessary, to an amount which is One Dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive’s
“base amount” as determined in accordance with such Section 280G.

 

(e) All payments and
benefits provided for under paragraph (c) above shall be

    	18

    	

    

contingent upon Executive executing a general
release of claims in favor of the Employer, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, shareholders,
partners, members, managers, agents or employees, which release shall be provided to the Executive within five (5) business days
following the date of the termination of Executive’s employment, and which must be executed by the Executive and become effective
within thirty (30) days thereafter. Severance payments under paragraph (c) that are contingent upon such release shall, subject
to Section 13, commence within ten (10) days after such release becomes effective; provided, however, that if Executive’s
termination of employment date occurs on or after November 15 of a calendar year, then severance payments shall, subject to the
effectiveness of such release and Section 13, commence on the first business day of the following calendar year.

 

2. No Guaranty of Employment. Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed as guarantying the employment of the Executive. Executive shall remain an “employee
at will” of Employer at all time during the term of this Agreement.

 

3. Notices. Any and all notices, demands
or requests required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be given in writing and sent, (i) by registered or certified
U.S. mail, return receipt requested, (ii) by hand, (iii) by overnight courier or (iv) by telecopier addressed to the parties hereto

agreement, this Agreement shall have a term of three years from the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event the term
of this Agreement would terminate at any time after the Employer has engaged in substantive negotiations regarding a transaction
which would lead to a Change in Control, this Agreement shall continue to remain in full force in effect until the earlier to occur
of (i) the effectuation of the Change in Control or (ii) the termination of the negotiations for the proposed transaction which
would have resulted in the Change in Control; further provided, however, that unless either party shall give written notice of
its intention not to renew this Agreement at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the end of the term of this Agreement
(as it may be extended), this Agreement shall renew for an additional one (1) year term upon the conclusion of each term.

 

5. Non-Solicitation; Confidential Information.

 

(a) The Executive agrees that for a period of six (6) months
following the Consummation Date, he will not directly or indirectly solicit, cause any other person to solicit, or assist any other
person with soliciting any customer, depositor or borrower of Bank, or any potential customer, depositor or borrower of Bank contacted
by Bank prior to his termination, to become a customer, depositor or borrower of another financial institution. Executive further
agrees that for a period of six (6) months following the Consummation Date, he will not directly or indirectly participate in the
solicitation or hiring of any employee, consultant or agent of the Bank or the Company or induce such party to cease their employment
with the Bank or the Company or their successors or to accept employment or a consulting or agency position with any other person
or entity.

 

(b)
At all times, both during the period of Employee’s services for the
Employer and after termination of Employee’s services, the Employee will keep in strictest confidence and trust all

    	20

    	

    

Confidential Information (as defined below) and the Employee
will not directly or indirectly use or disclose to any third-party any Confidential Information, except as may be necessary in
the ordinary course of performing the Employees duties for the Employer, or disclose any Confidential Information, or permit or
encourage any other person or entity to do so, without the prior written consent of the Employer except as may be necessary in
the ordinary course of performing the Employee’s duties for the Employer.

 

(c) As used herein, “Confidential Information” means
any confidential or proprietary information relating to the Employer and its affiliates including, without limitation, the identity
of the Employer’s customers, the identity of representatives of customers with whom the Employer has dealt, the kinds of
services provided by the Employer to customers, the manner in which such services are performed or offered to be performed, the
service needs of actual or prospective customers, customer preferences and policies, pricing information, business and marketing
plans, financial information, budgets, compensation or personnel records, information concerning the creation, acquisition or disposition
of products and services, vendors, software, data processing programs, databases, customer maintenance listings, computer software
applications, research and development data, know-how, and other trade secrets. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Confidential Information
does not include information which: (i) is or becomes public knowledge without breach of this Agreement; or (ii) is received by
Employee from a third party without any violation of any obligation of confidentiality and without confidentiality restrictions;
provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Employee from participating in or disclosing documents or information
in connection with any judicial or administrative investigation, inquiry or proceeding to the extent that such participation or
disclosure is required under applicable law; provided further, however, that the

    	21

    	

    

Employee will provide the Employer with prompt notice of such
request so that the Employer may seek (with the cooperation of the Employee, if so requested by the Employer), a protective order
or other appropriate remedy and/or waiver in writing of compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If a particular portion
or aspect of Confidential Information becomes subject to any of the foregoing exceptions, all other portions or aspects of such
information shall remain subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

6. Assignability. The services of
the Executive hereunder are personal in nature, and neither this Agreement nor the rights or obligations of Executive hereunder
may be assigned, whether by operation of law or otherwise. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Employer
and its successors and assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Executive’s heirs, executors, administrators
and other legal representatives.

 

7. Waiver. The waiver by Employer
or the Executive of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any
subsequent or other breach hereof.

 

8. Applicable Law. This Agreement
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to principles of
conflict of laws.

 

9. Entire Agreement; Prior Agreements.
This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be amended,
waived, changed, modified or discharged, except by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement supersedes
and replaces any prior agreement between Executive and Employer concerning severance or change in control payments.

 

10. Counterparts. This Agreement may
be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.

 

11. Amendment. This Agreement may
be modified or amended only by an amendment in writing signed by both parties.

 

12. Severability. If any provision
of this Agreement shall be held invalid or

    	22

    	

    

unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach
only to such provision, only to the extent it is invalid or unenforceable, and shall not in any manner affect or render invalid
or unenforceable any other severable provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such invalid
or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.

 

13. 409A Compliance. This
Agreement shall be interpreted to avoid any penalty sanctions under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) and regulations
promulgated thereunder. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Employee shall not be considered to have
terminated employment with the Employer for purposes of the payments and benefit of Section 1 hereof unless he would be considered
to have incurred a “termination of employment” from the Employer within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(h)(1)(ii).
For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may the
Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. If the Executive is a “specified employee”
for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, any payments required to be made pursuant to
this Agreement which are deferred compensation and subject to Section 409A (and do not qualify for an exemption thereunder) shall
not commence until one day after the day which is six (6) months from the date of termination. Should this Section 13 result in
a delay of payments to the Executive, on the first day any such payments may be made without incurring a penalty pursuant to Section
409A (the “409A Payment Date”), Employer shall begin to make such payments as described in this Section 13, provided
that any amounts that would have been payable earlier but for application of this Section 13 shall be paid in lump-sum on the 409A
Payment Date.

 

14. Section Headings. The headings
contained in this Agreement are solely for convenience of reference and shall be given no effect in the construction or interpretation
of this Agreement.

Exhibit 10.1
ACCOUNT PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS ACCOUNT PURCHASE AGREEMENT (such Account Purchase Agreement, together with the Schedules, Riders and Exhibits hereto, as the same may be amended and renewed from time to time, this “Agreement”) by and between KEY TRONIC CORPORATION, a Washington corporation, having its chief executive office at 4424 North Sullivan Road, Spokane Valley, WA 99216 (the “Client”), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“WFB”) is dated as of the Effective Date.  Except as set forth in Section 10.1 below, all capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Rider A annexed hereto.
Client has advised WFB that Client desires to offer to sell and assign to WFB certain of Client’s Accounts that satisfy the requirements of Acceptable Accounts hereunder.  WFB may, in its sole discretion, purchase certain Acceptable Accounts offered for sale and assignment, and all such purchases shall be on full notification to the Customers obligated on such Accounts and, except as set forth herein, without recourse to Client.  This Agreement, including the Schedules, Riders and Exhibits annexed hereto, memorializes the terms and conditions under which WFB shall purchase such Acceptable Accounts from Client.
In consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Client and WFB hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1
PURCHASE AND PRICING TERMS

Section 1.1    Purchase and Assignment of Accounts
1.1.1    Purchase and Assignment.  Client hereby agrees to assign and sell, and does hereby assign and sell, to WFB, as absolute owner, and WFB hereby agrees to purchase, and does hereby purchase, certain Acceptable Accounts of Client selected by WFB for purchase hereunder, without further act or instrument.  Except as set forth herein, all purchases of Purchased Accounts shall be without recourse to Client.  Concurrently with the purchase of each Purchased Account, Client shall deliver to WFB an assignment schedule for such Purchased Account, together with copies of the assigned invoices (or equivalent thereof if Client delivered such invoice to its Customer electronically) and any other information or documentation as requested by WFB in connection with such Purchased Account.
Section 1.2    Payment of Purchase Price.  As consideration for the assignment and sale of a Purchased Account to WFB, WFB shall pay to Client the Purchase Price for such Purchased Account on the date of purchase thereof. WFB may withhold from the payment of any Purchase Price such Reserves as WFB has established from time to time, in its sole discretion. WFB shall remit to Client payment for a Purchased Account by crediting the Client Ledger Account.
Section 1.3    Assumption of Credit Risk.  Upon the purchase of a Purchased Account, WFB shall assume the Credit Risk thereon, but not the risk of non-payment of such Purchased Account for any other reason.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, WFB’s Credit Risk on a Purchased Account shall not include any Customer’s inability to pay a Purchased Account at its longest maturity as a result of war, acts of war, acts of God, civil strife, currency restrictions or foreign political impediments.  Client shall be liable to WFB for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by Client pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to Client for the failure of any Customer or other obligor to pay any Purchased Account solely as a result of the Credit Risk thereon.
Section 1.4    No Commitment to Purchase; No Liability.  WFB shall have no obligation to accept any offer to sell, or otherwise to purchase, any Account from Client and nothing in this Agreement or otherwise constitutes a commitment on the part of WFB to make any such purchase.  WFB may reject any offer from time to time in its sole discretion, without any notice or explanation to Client as to the basis for such determination.  No such obligation or commitment shall be implied by an act or omission of WFB or on its behalf other than the payment by WFB to Client of the Purchase Price for any Acceptable Account in accordance with the terms hereof and the satisfaction of the conditions to any such sale by Client to WFB of an Acceptable Account selected for purchase by WFB under the terms hereof.  WFB shall have no liability to Client or to any other Person for declining to accept any offer to purchase an Account or the withdrawal or revocation of any acceptance of an offer to purchase an Account on the basis of the failure of any of the conditions to such purchase to be satisfied in the determination of WFB.    

Section 1.5    Repurchase of Accounts
1.5.1    Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event with respect to a Purchased Account, WFB may, upon notice, require Client to pay to WFB the Repurchase Price in respect of such Purchased Account.
1.5.2    The  payment of the Repurchase Price or any other amounts at any time owing by Client to WFB, shall be made, at WFB’s option, either by: (a) setoff against any amount at any time owing by WFB to Client, (b) debit or deduction from any deposit account of Client or the Client Ledger Account or (c) a cash payment by Client to WFB.  All such payments by Client to WFB shall be due and payable on the next Business Day after the date of the notice by WFB to Client and shall be made without offset, defense, or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description to the account of WFB specified by WFB to Client for such purpose.  If WFB has exercised its option to require that Client repurchase a Purchased Account, then upon the payment by Client to WFB of the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Account, such Purchased Account shall be deemed to be sold by WFB back to Client without further action or payment, and without recourse, representation or warranty.  If after receipt of any payment, WFB is required to surrender or return such payment to any Person for any reason, then the obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment had not been received by WFB.     
Section 1.6    No Assumption of Obligations Related to Accounts
WFB shall not have any obligation or liability to any Customer or any obligor in respect of any Account or other customer of Client (including any obligation to perform any of the obligations of Client under any Accounts or Related Assets).  No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed hereunder by WFB and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. 
Section 1.7    True Sales
Client and WFB intend that the transfers of the Purchased Accounts hereunder be true sales by Client to WFB that are absolute and irrevocable and that provide WFB with the full benefits of ownership of the Purchased Accounts and Related Assets, and neither Client nor WFB intends the transactions contemplated hereunder to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from WFB to Client.
ARTICLE 2
ADMINISTRATION

Section 2.1    Client Ledger Account
2.1.1    WFB shall record in the Client Ledger Account all debits, credits and other entries for all transactions between Client and WFB hereunder or under any Other Agreement, including, without limitation, all purchases of Purchased Accounts, payments of the Purchase Price for Purchased Accounts, collections of Accounts, Reserves, and charges, including, without limitation, amounts due for any Repurchase Price, discount, fees, costs and expenses.
2.1.2    Subject to Section 2.2.5 below with respect to unidentified or duplicate payments:
(a)    WFB shall, on the Settlement Date for a Purchased Account, credit to the Client Ledger Account all Proceeds of such Purchased Account, less the Purchase Price of such Purchased Account, received by WFB in immediately available funds in the WFB Payment Account.  Provided no Termination Event exists and subject to WFB’s right to withhold Reserves, WFB shall release to Client any credit balance in the Client Ledger Account resulting from Proceeds credited to the Client Ledger Account under this Section 2.1.2(a).
(b)    WFB shall, on the Settlement Date for an Account that is not a Purchased Account, credit to the Client Ledger Account all Proceeds of such Account received by WFB in immediately available funds in the WFB Payment Account.  WFB shall forward to Client, on a daily basis, all such Proceeds credited to the Client Ledger Account under this Section 2.1.2(b).

2.1.4    Client agrees to log on to the internet accessible website provided by WFB no less frequently than monthly, and Client shall review all transactions posted to the Client Ledger Account through the last day of each month.  All postings to the Client Ledger Account for each month shall be subject to subsequent adjustment by WFB but shall, absent manifest error, be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Client and WFB unless, within 60 days after the last day of any month, Client shall deliver to WFB written objection to the postings for such month describing the error or errors contained in any such postings.
2.1.5    Client hereby unconditionally promises to pay to WFB all amounts due to WFB, as and when due, without deduction or setoff, regardless of any defense or counterclaim, in accordance with this Agreement. Client hereby irrevocably authorizes WFB, from time to time and without prior notice to Client, to charge all amounts, including, without limitation, the amount of any Repurchase Price, all discount, costs, fees, expenses and other charges payable by Client hereunder or under any of the Other Agreements, to the Client Ledger Account maintained by WFB. 
Section 2.2    Payments and Remittances
2.2.1    All checks, remittances, other items of payment and other Proceeds of Purchased Assets shall be property of WFB.  Client and Servicer shall cause to be deposited into such blocked accounts or lockboxes and related blocked accounts as WFB may specify (collectively, the “Collection Accounts”), in each instance established and maintained by Client at WFB at Client’s expense, all Proceeds of Purchased Accounts and all Proceeds of other Accounts due from a Purchased Customer.  Client shall deliver to WFB, in form and substance acceptable to WFB, a deposit account control agreement with respect to each Collection Account duly executed by Client (collectively, the “Deposit Account Control Agreements”).  WFB is irrevocably authorized, at any time, to give instructions pursuant to such Deposit Account Control Agreements directing the disposition of funds in the Collection Accounts to the WFB Payment Account.  Without limiting the foregoing, until such time as WFB shall elect, in its discretion, to give such instructions, Client shall remit to WFB at the WFB Payment Account, on a daily basis, all funds on deposit in or deposited into the Collection Accounts from Purchased Customers or constituting Proceeds of Accounts of Purchased Customers.  Without limiting Section 2.2.5 below, amounts received by WFB in the WFB Payment Account from the Collection Accounts pursuant to such Deposit Account Control Agreements shall be credited by WFB to the Client Ledger Account on the Settlement Date and any credit balance in the Client Ledger Account, including as a result of the receipt by WFB of funds from the Collection Accounts pursuant to the Deposit Account Control Agreements, shall be remitted to or for the benefit of Client pursuant to Section 2.1.2 of this Agreement.
2.2.2    If Client receives any checks, remittances, other items of payment or other Proceeds of Purchased Assets or Accounts with respect to which the Customer is a Purchased Customer, Client shall deposit the same into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of such receipt thereof.
2.2.3    If WFB is required to repay, refund or otherwise disgorge any payment received by WFB for an Account, Client hereby indemnifies, saves and holds WFB harmless with respect to such payment and the amount of the repayment by WFB shall be part of the Indemnified Amounts, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, and such amount may be charged by WFB to the Client Ledger Account.
2.2.4    In the event Client at any time receives a payment from WFB with respect to any Account to which Client has no rights, repayment of such payment shall be part of the obligations of Client to WFB, whether or not this Agreement has been terminated, and any such amounts shall be paid to WFB and shall be included in the Indemnified Amounts.
2.2.5    If WFB receives a duplicate payment with respect to an Account or other payment which is not identified as applicable to an outstanding Account, WFB will account for such payment as an open item and, in WFB’s discretion, WFB may return any duplicate or unidentified payment to the Customer or apply such unidentified payment pursuant to the terms hereof upon proper identification and documentation acceptable to WFB.
Section 2.3    Settlement Date.  WFB will credit the Client Ledger Account in the amount of the Proceeds of any Account, less the Purchase Price (if any) of such Account, on the Settlement Date for such Account.

ARTICLE 3
FEES AND EXPENSES

Section 3.1    Fees.  Client agrees to timely pay all fees set forth on Schedule 1 annexed hereto, all of which fees shall be fully earned and payable when due, may be charged by WFB to the Client Ledger Account and shall not be subject to refund, rebate or proration for any reason whatsoever. In addition, in the event Client shall fail to pay, when due hereunder, any amount owed by Client to WFB hereunder, including the amount of any Repurchase Price, Client agrees to pay to WFB, on demand, interest on all such amounts not paid when due at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (a) the then applicable WFB Discount Rate plus four percent (4%) percent and (b) the applicable lawful maximum rate, if any, in effect from time to time.
Section 3.2    Reimbursement of Costs, Fees and Expenses Incurred by WFB.

ARTICLE 4
SAVINGS CLAUSE

Notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.7 hereof, if the conveyance and transfer by Client to WFB of the Purchased Accounts and the Related Assets hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law.  For this purpose, Client hereby grants WFB a duly perfected, first priority security interest in all of Client’s rights in, to and under the Purchased Assets to secure the timely payment and performance by Client of all obligations owing to WFB. In the event this Agreement shall be characterized as a security agreement, WFB shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised alternatively, successively or concurrently on any one or more occasions.
ARTICLE 5
CLIENT REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Client hereby makes all of the representations and warranties set forth on Rider B annexed hereto.

ARTICLE 6
AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

Client hereby agrees as follows:
Section 6.1    Recordkeeping, Rights of Inspection, Audit, Etc.
(a)    Client shall maintain a standard system of accounting in accordance with GAAP, and proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to Client’s properties, business and activities, including without limitation, immediately upon the sale of each Purchased Account to WFB.

The servicing, administering and collection of the Purchased Accounts shall be conducted by such Person (“Servicer” as hereinafter further defined) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 10.  Until WFB gives notice to Client of the designation of a new Servicer following the occurrence of a Servicer Default or a Termination Event, Client is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, WFB hereby grants to Servicer a power of attorney to take in WFB’s name and on behalf of the Client any and all steps necessary or desirable, in the reasonable determination of Servicer, to collect all amounts with respect to the Purchased Accounts.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not, without the prior written consent of WFB, (i) make WFB a party to any litigation or (ii) extend, amend or otherwise modify or waive any term or condition of any Purchased Accounts unless any such extension, amendment, modification or waiver (a) is made or granted when no Termination Event or Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing; (b) would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the collectability or enforceability of any such Purchased Account and (c) is otherwise permitted in accordance with the terms of the Credit and Collection Policy.

Section 10.4    Actions by Client.
