AFFIDAVIT, RELEASE & WAIVER OF CLAIMS

ARTICLE I

CONSIDERATION

          This Affidavit, Release & Waiver of Claims (“Release”) is given to OpenTV, Inc. (the
“Company”) and its affiliates in consideration of the Company’s agreement to provide me, Wesley
Hoffman, with the following, as provided, by my Retention Agreement, dated March 30, 2005 (the
“Retention Agreement”), as modified by this Release, my Stock Option Agreements as modified by the
provisions of this Release, and as otherwise agreed by me and the Company under the terms set forth
herein :

	 	1.	 	Payment of my base salary, which is $284,625, through the “Termination Date,” which
shall be May 31, 2006 for purposes of this Agreement;
	 
	 	2.	 	A lump sum payment, on or before the fifth business day after the Termination Date (or,
if I have not returned this Release to the Company by that date, within five days after I
return a signed Release to the Company), of my vacation time not used as of the Termination
Date to the extent that such vacation time has been accrued through the Termination Date,
calculated based upon my base salary at the Termination Date;
	 
	 	3.	 	A lump sum payment, on or before the fifth business day after the Termination Date (or,
if I have not returned this Release to the Company by that date, within five days after I
return a signed Release to the Company), of all business expenses reimbursable to the
extent not theretofore paid, understanding that any business expenses for which
reimbursement has not been requested on or before the day immediately preceding the
Termination Date, will be reimbursed to me in accordance with normal Company business
practices as in effect as of the Termination Date;
	 
	 	4.	 	Continuation of my base salary, payable in accordance with normal Company payroll
practices in effect on the Termination Date, until February 28, 2007 (such date being
referred to as the “End Date”). My base salary continuation shall not be extended beyond
the End Date for any reason, including in the event of any Change in Control of the Company
prior to that date;
	 
	 	5.	 	I understand that I will not be entitled to any discretionary bonus for 2006;
	 
	 	6.	 	Continued vesting of options granted to me under the Plan (as defined in the Retention
Agreement) in the manner set forth in Exhibit A hereto;
	 
	 	7.	 	The right to exercise vested stock options granted to me under the Plan in the manner
set forth in Exhibit A hereto; and
	 
	 	8.	 	The opportunity to provide consulting services to the Company, to the extent that I am
available and the Company requests my services, as contemplated in Article V below.

					
	 	 	 	 	 
	California Release — OpenTV
	 	 
	 	 

 

 

          All payments referred to in the preceding Sections 1 through 8 of this Article I, inclusive,
will be made by the Company subject to any and all applicable payroll deductions, including payment
of applicable withholding taxes. I understand that I am fully responsible for any and all taxes
that may be imposed on me pursuant to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, in respect of any deferred compensation that I may be deemed to receive hereunder.

          I acknowledge that effective from the Termination Date, I shall be responsible for the payment
of any premiums associated with continuation of my health insurance under the provisions of COBRA.
The entitlement under COBRA shall not be extended in any way by virtue of any terms of this
Release.

          I acknowledge that I have been both encouraged and given the opportunity to discuss this
document with counsel of my own choosing.

          I understand that the consideration described in this Release includes various benefits for
which I am not eligible unless I elect to sign and return to the Company, and I do not revoke, this
Release. I understand that I have forty-five days (45) days from receipt of this Release to
consider whether I wish to accept these additional benefits in exchange for executing this Release.
I understand that I may sign this document sooner, and if I do so, I acknowledge with my signature
that the decision to sign was mine and mine alone and that, as a result, I voluntarily have waived
the 45-day consideration period referred to in the preceding sentence. I also understand that even
if I do sign and return this Release to the Company, I may change my mind and revoke this Release
and forego the Release consideration as described in this Release, provided I notify Human
Resources in writing via confidential fax at (415) 962-5362 within seven (7) days of my signing and
returning this Release to the Company that I wish to revoke this Release and that I no longer want
any of the benefits to referred to in this Release which would not otherwise be expressly provided
under the terms of my Retention Agreement in connection with my termination.

ARTICLE II

RELEASES

          In consideration of the Company’s entering into this Release and the consideration provided to
me hereunder, I, on behalf of my heirs, spouse and assigns, hereby completely release and forever
discharge the Company, together with its past and present affiliates, agents, officers, directors,
shareholders, employees, attorneys, insurers, successors and assigns (collectively referred to as
the “Company Releasees”, which term shall include, without limitation and for the avoidance of
doubt, OpenTV Corp. and OpenTV, Inc.), from any and all claims, of any and every kind, nature and
character, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, based on any act or omission occurring prior
to the date of my signing this Release, including but not limited to any claims arising out of my
offer of employment, my employment or termination of my employment with any Company Releasee, and,
without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of
duty under applicable state corporate law. I expressly agree and consent to the termination of my
employment effective as of the Termination Date. This Release shall also constitute my
resignation, effective immediately, from all officer and director positions that I hold with the
Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; I understand that if any additional documentation
is required to effect those resignations, I shall execute such documentation as may be reasonably
requested by the Company. The matters released include, but are not limited to, any claims under
federal, state or local laws, including claims arising under the federal Age Discrimination in
Employment Act or the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Employee Retirement and
Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Worker Adjustment
and Retraining Act and applicable regulations and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act or
any similar state or local law, and any claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. The only exceptions
are any claims I may have: (i) for unemployment or workers compensation; (ii) to enforce the terms
of this Release against the Company; and (iii) with respect to obligations of the Company, if any,
that are contemplated by their terms to survive my Retention Agreement and Stock Option Agreements,
and which are not otherwise superseded by the terms of this Release.

          I understand and agree that this Release extinguishes all claims, whether known or unknown,
foreseen or unforeseen, except for those claims expressly described above. I expressly waive any
rights or benefits under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, or any similar state or local
law. California Civil Code Section 1542 provides as follows:

“A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known
by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

          I fully understand that, if any fact with respect to any matter covered by this Release is
found hereafter to be other than or different from the facts now believed by me to be true, I
expressly accept and assume that this Release shall be and remain effective, notwithstanding such
difference in the facts.

          I represent that I have no complaint, charge, grievance, lawsuit, or any other action of any
kind pending against any Company Releasee. I promise that neither I nor anyone acting on my behalf
will assert or file any complaint, charge, grievance, lawsuit, or action of any kind against any
Company Releasee, which is based in any way, in whole or in part, on facts or circumstances
arising, or alleged to have arisen, on or before the last date of execution of this document. I
further promise that if any agency, person, or court, on my behalf, assumes jurisdiction over any
such complaint, charge or grievance naming me as a plaintiff, complainant, charging party or
grievant against any Company Releasee, I will explain to the agency, person, or court the effect of
this Release and request that the complaint, charge, or grievance be dismissed.

          I acknowledge that I will continue to be bound by any obligations under any confidential or
proprietary information, inventions assignment or non-disclosure agreement or other similar
agreement that I have signed during my employment, including those provisions set forth in my
Retention Agreement, which remain effective notwithstanding this Release.

          In consideration of my release as set forth above, the Company hereby completely releases and
forever discharges me from any and all claims, of any and every kind, nature and character, based
on any act or omission occurring prior to the date of my signing this Release, that are, in each
such case, known to the Company as of the date of this Release. The Company represents that it is
not aware of any known claims that it may have against me as of the date of this Release.

ARTICLE III

COMPANY PROPERTY

          As of the date of this Release, I confirm that I have returned to the Company any and all
confidential information (in whatever medium recorded), including all copies, reproductions,
compilations, summaries, analyses, or other documents containing or reflecting my or other Company
representatives’ use of any confidential information, as well as all Company property, including
without limitation, all computers, cell phones, pda’s, Blackberrys or other equipment or devices,
all files and records, regardless of the media and all copies thereof, except only files of a
personal nature, such as Retention Agreements, benefits information, option agreements, etc., keys
or entry cards, and any other property of any kind whatsoever which is owned by the Company, except
for such files and property that I have been specifically authorized by the Chief Executive Officer
to retain (provided that I will promptly return any of these files and property upon request).
Notwithstanding the return or of the confidential information, I shall continue to be bound by the
obligations of confidentiality contained in my Retention Agreement. I further represent that I
have not recreated or delivered to anyone else any confidential information and that I will not
recreate or deliver to anyone else any confidential information, and that I have not used, nor will
I use, any confidential information for the benefit of myself, any future employer, or any other
third party. If, and to the extent, that I perform consulting services for the Company, I
understand that I may receive confidential information regarding the Company, and I will continue
to hold that confidential information in a manner consistent with the manner in which I held
confidential information while an employee of the Company.

ARTICLE IV

NONDISPARAGEMENT AND DESTRUCTIVE ACTS

          I agree not to impugn the business of the Company and its affiliates, including use of
disparaging or defamatory statements toward the Company and its affiliates, or their respective
past or present officers, directors, employees, consultants and advisors. I will not interfere
with the Company’s relationship with its prospective or current customers, suppliers or partners in
any way that would be detrimental to the Company, nor cause any services to be delayed.

          I acknowledge that I have not committed nor will I commit, directly or indirectly, any
destructive action against the Company and its affiliates or the property of the Company and its
affiliates, including, but not limited to, gaining or allowing unauthorized access to or
introducing viruses or bugs into their products, computer systems or networks.

ARTICLE V

CONSULTING ARRANGEMENTS

          I understand that the Company may request that I consult on various matters after the
Termination Date, but that neither the Company nor I have any obligation to undertake such a
relationship or to continue any such relationship after it has commenced. If the Company and I
mutually agree to retain my services as a consultant, I agree that my initial rate for these
services will be $1 per hour and that I will be reimbursed for all reasonable business expenses
that I may incur in connection with providing those services. If I propose to change the hourly
rate for my consulting services, I will provide the Company with 30 days prior written notice
thereof. I will provide reasonable documentation to the Company to support any fees or expenses
that are owed to me.

ARTICLE VI

MISCELLANEOUS

          This Release constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and me with respect to any
matters referred to in this Release.

          This Release supersedes any and all of the other agreements between the Company and me, except
for continuing obligations under my Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement (the
“Employee Inventions Agreement”). The Company confirms that my termination is being
effected without cause, and that the non-competition provisions set forth in my Retention Agreement
and Stock Option Agreements are, therefore, not applicable or effective. In the event of any
conflict between the terms of this Release and my Retention Agreement or Stock Option Agreements,
the terms of this Release shall control and supersede the similar provisions set forth in my
Retention Agreement and Stock Option Agreements.

          No other consideration, agreements, representations, oral statements, understandings or course
of conduct which are not expressly set forth in this Release should be implied or are binding. I
am not relying upon any other agreement, representation, statement, omission, understanding or
course of conduct which is not expressly set forth in this Release. I understand and agree that
this Release shall not be deemed or construed at any time or for any purposes as an admission of
any liability or wrongdoing by either myself or any Company Releasee. I also agree that to the
extent that any term, condition or provision of this Release is held to be invalid, illegal or
otherwise unenforceable under applicable law, then such term, condition or provision shall be
deemed amended only to the extent necessary to render such term, condition or provision enforceable
under applicable law, preserving to the fullest extent possible the intent and agreements of the
parties set forth herein; in the event that such term, condition or provision cannot be so amended
as to be enforceable under applicable law, then such term, condition or provision shall be deemed
excluded from this Release and the other terms, conditions and provisions hereof shall remain in
full force and effect as if such unenforceable term, condition or provision had not been included
herein.

          The terms and conditions of this Release shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with
the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to the principles of the conflict of
laws thereof. The terms and conditions of this Release shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the Company.

          I have read this Release and understand all of its terms. I further acknowledge and agree
that this Release is executed voluntarily and with full knowledge of its legal significance. I
also understand and agree that if any suit is brought to enforce the provisions of this Release,
the prevailing party shall be entitled to its costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees as well as any
and all other remedies specifically authorized under the law.

RETENTION AGREEMENTS, ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS

California Labor Code § 2870. Invention on Own Time — Exemption from Agreement.

	 	(a)	 	Any provision in an Retention Agreement which provides that an employee shall

employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or
her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade
secret information except for those inventions that either:

	 	(1)	 	Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of
the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated

contained in Section 4.01(h) is no longer true with respect to any Receivable,
the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such
Receivable in full;

                  (iii) Except with respect to Deemed Collections, or as
otherwise required by applicable law or the relevant Contract, all Collections
received from an Obligor of any Receivables shall be applied to the Receivables
of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the
oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates its payment for
application to specific Receivables; and

                  (iv) If and to the extent the Program Agent or any of the
Lenders shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor any amount
received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been
so received but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and, accordingly,
the Program Agent or the Lenders, as the case may

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

be, shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount, payable when and to
the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in
respect thereof.

            (e) Required Payment of Yield, Fees and Other Obligations.

                  (i) To the extent that as of any Regular Payment Date the
amounts retained in the Facility Account with respect to any Fixed Period are
insufficient to pay all the accrued but unpaid Yield and Fees, the Borrower
shall be obligated to pay to the Program Agent on the Regular Payment Date, for
the account of the Lenders and the Program Agent, an amount equal to the balance
of such accrued and unpaid amounts by deposit of such amount to the Facility
Account. The Program Agent shall subsequently distribute such funds as set forth
in Section 2.03(a) or (b), as applicable.

                  (ii) To the extent that as of any Regular Payment Date the
amounts deposited to the Facility Account with respect to any Fixed Period are
insufficient to pay all the accrued but unpaid (if payable to a Servicer other
than an Originator or one of its Affiliates) Servicer Fee, the Borrower shall be
obligated to pay to the Facility Account for the benefit of the Servicer (if
applicable), an amount equal to the balance of such accrued and unpaid amounts
by deposit of such amount to the Facility Account. The Program Agent shall
subsequently distribute such funds as set forth in Section 2.03(a) or (b), as
applicable.

            (f) Borrower Disbursements. Any Collections remitted to the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(iv) or Section 2.03(c)(viii) shall be applied by the
Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower: (i) first, if so requested by the Borrower,
to pay or prepay (or set aside for the payment or prepayment of) Advances, (ii)
second, to pay the purchase price for Transferred Assets to be acquired by the
Borrower from SPE I on such day under the Secondary Purchase Agreement, (iii)
third, to repay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the
Subordinated Note (as such term is defined in the Secondary Purchase Agreement),
and (iv) fourth, in such other manner as the Borrower may specify and that is
not prohibited by the terms of the Facility Documents.

            SECTION 2.04. Fees.

            (a) The Borrower shall pay to the Servicer a fee (the "Servicer
Fee") of 0.50% per annum on the average daily Outstanding Balance of the
Receivables from the date of this Agreement until the later of the last
Termination Date for all Rate Tranches or the date on which the Facility
Principal is reduced to zero, payable in arrears on (i) each Payment Date if
such Servicer is not an Originator or one of its Affiliates, and (ii) on each
Regular Payment Date if such Servicer is an Originator or one of its Affiliates.
Upon three Business Days' notice to the Borrower, the Program Agent, the
Servicer (if not the Originator, the Borrower or its designee or an Affiliate of
the Borrower) may elect to be paid, as such fee, another percentage per annum on
the average daily Outstanding Balance of the Receivables, but in no event in
excess of 110% of the reasonable costs and expenses of the Servicer in
administering and collecting the Receivables. The Servicer Fee shall be payable
only from Collections pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment set
forth in, Section 2.03. So long as HLIOC is acting as the Servicer hereunder,
amounts paid as the Servicer Fee pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) shall reduce,
on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the obligation of the Borrower to pay the
"Servicer Fee" pursuant to

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       27
<PAGE>

Section 6.03 of the Secondary Purchase Agreement, provided that such obligation
of the Borrower to pay the Servicer Fee shall in no event be reduced below zero.

            (b) The Borrower shall pay to the Program Agent certain fees in the
amounts and on the dates set forth in a separate fee agreement dated April 25,
2006 between HLIOC and the Program Agent (as amended and restated pursuant to a
letter agreement of even date among the Borrower, HLIOC and the Program Agent,
as the same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified
from time to time, the "Fee Agreement").

            (c) Beginning on the date hereof until the Commitment Termination
Date (the "Final Payment Date"), an unused fee (the "Unused Fee") shall accrue
and be payable by the Borrower to the Program Agent for the ratable benefit of
each Lender based upon such Lender's Ratable Share, in an amount equal to the
sum of the "Daily Unused Fee" for each day in the immediately preceding Month,
or with respect to the Final Payment Date in an amount equal to the sum of the
"Daily Unused Fee" for each day in the Month in which such Final Payment Date
occurs and, if no Unused Fee has yet been paid for the immediately preceding
Month, for each day in the immediately preceding Month. The "Daily Unused Fee"
for any day is equal to the sum of the following for each Lender: (a) the
difference between such Lender's Commitment on such day and such Lender's
Advances outstanding on such day, multiplied by (b) 0.50%, and divided by (c)
360.

            (d) On the date hereof, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the
benefit of each Lender based upon such Lender's Ratable Share, a one-time
closing fee equal to the product of (i) 0.50% and (ii) the aggregate amount of
the Commitments of all the Lenders as of the date hereof. The closing fee is
fully earned on the date paid and is not refundable for any reason whatsoever.

            SECTION 2.05. Payments and Computations, Etc.

            (a) Unless otherwise specified herein, all amounts to be paid or
deposited by the Borrower or the Servicer hereunder shall be paid or deposited
no later than 2 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds
to the Facility Account.

            (b) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall, to the extent
permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it when
due hereunder, at an interest rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the
Alternate Base Rate, payable on demand.

            (c) All computations of interest under clause (b) above and all
computations of Yield, fees, and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the
basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first
but excluding the last day) elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made
hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or
deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of
time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.

            (d) All amounts to be paid hereunder shall be paid in the lawful
money of the United States of America.

<PAGE>

            (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are solely the obligations of
the Borrower payable solely from the Collateral. No recourse under any
obligation, covenant or agreement of the Borrower contained in this Agreement or
implied therefrom shall be had against any member, stockholder, manager,
officer, director, incorporator, employee, agent or any Affiliate of the
Borrower, and any and all liability for breaches by the Borrower for any such
obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or equity, or by
statute, rule or regulation, of every such member, stockholder, manager,
officer, director, incorporator, employee, agent or Affiliate is hereby
expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of
this Agreement; provided, that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Person
from any liability it might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions
taken or omissions made by them; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not
relieve Parent, HLIOC, Servicer, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc, SPE I or
any Originator from its own contractual obligations under any of the Transaction
Documents.

            SECTION 2.06. Increased Costs.

            (a) If CUSA, any Lender, any entity which purchases or enters into a
commitment to make Advances or interests therein, or any of their respective
Affiliates (each an "Affected Person") determines that (i) the adoption of, or
any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule,
regulation or order after the date of this Agreement regarding capital adequacy,
(ii) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule or regulation or order or (iii)
compliance with any such guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Entity (whether or not having the force of law) shall have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Affected Person's capital as
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such
Affected Person could have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or
interpretation, then, upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the
Program Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Person, from time to
time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Affected Person for such reduction. A certificate as to such
amounts setting forth in reasonable detail the reason for charging such
additional amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent by such
Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
manifest error.

            (b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other
than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements
referred to in Section 2.07) in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central
bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law),
shall have the effect of increasing the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make
or making or maintaining any Advance in respect of which Yield is computed by
reference to the Eurodollar Rate, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy
to the Program Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time
as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender for such increased costs. A certificate as to such amounts setting forth
in reasonable detail the reason for charging such additional amounts submitted
to the Borrower and the Program Agent and such Affected Person shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       29
<PAGE>

            (c) If any Affected Person shall incur any loss, cost or expense as
a result of the failure of any Advance to be made on the date specified in the
applicable Funds Transfer Letter for any reason (other than the failure of such
Affected Person to fund any such Advance), the Borrower shall, upon demand by
such Affected Person, immediately pay such Affected Person the amount of such
losses, costs and expenses, without duplication of amounts otherwise payable
hereunder. Upon the request of Borrower, such Affected Party shall submit to the
Borrower a certificate as to such amounts showing the basis for calculation of
such amounts, which certificate shall, in the absence of manifest error, be
conclusive and binding for all purposes.

            SECTION 2.07. Additional Yield on Advances Bearing a Eurodollar
Rate. The Borrower shall pay to any Lender, so long as such Lender shall be
required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of
or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional Yield on the unpaid Principal
of Advances of such Lender during each Fixed Period Principal of Advances in
respect of which Yield is computed by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, for such
Fixed Period, at a rate per annum equal at all times during such Fixed Period to
the remainder obtained by subtracting (a) the Eurodollar Rate for such Fixed
Period from (b) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate referred to
in clause (a) above by that percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate
Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Fixed Period, payable on each date on
which Yield is payable on such Advances. Such additional Yield shall be
determined by such Lender and notice thereof given to the Borrower by such
Lender (with a copy to the Program Agent) within 30 days after any Yield payment
is made with respect to which such additional Yield is requested. A certificate
as to such additional Yield setting forth the calculation of such additional
Yield submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent by such Lender shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

            SECTION 2.08. Taxes.

            (a) Any and all payments and deposits required to be made hereunder
or under any other Transaction Document by the Servicer or the Borrower shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding (i) net income taxes that are imposed by the
United States and franchise taxes, (ii) net income taxes or franchise taxes that
are imposed on an Affected Person by a state or foreign jurisdiction (or any
political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Affected Person is
organized or in which such Affected Person is conducting business through an
office or agency located in such jurisdiction and (iii) in the case of each
Lender, taxes measured by such Lender's net income or net profit and franchise
taxes imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between such
Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Entity imposing such tax or any
taxing authority thereof or therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter
referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower or the Servicer shall be required by
law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any
Affected Person, (i) the Borrower shall make an additional payment to such
Affected Person, in an amount sufficient so that, after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under
this Section 2.08), such Affected Person receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made,

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       30
<PAGE>

(ii) the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall pay
the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority
in accordance with applicable law.

            (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or other documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges
or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
(hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes").

            (c) The Borrower will indemnify each Affected Person for the full
amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section
2.08) paid by such Affected Person and any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not
such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 2.08(c) to
any Affected Person in respect of penalties, interest and other similar
liabilities attributable to such indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes if such
penalties, interest or other similar liabilities are caused by or result from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Affected Person, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable
judgment or order. This indemnification shall be made within thirty days from
the date the Affected Person makes written demand therefor (and a copy of such
demand shall be delivered to the Program Agent). A certificate as to the amount
of such indemnification submitted to the Borrower and the Program Agent by such
Affected Person, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for and the
calculation thereof, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent
manifest error.

            The relevant Affected Person shall promptly notify the Borrower upon
receipt by such Affected Person of notice of any claim, assessment or dispute
relating to any tax proceeding for which the Borrower has liability pursuant to
this clause (c) and shall promptly forward to the Borrower any communications
received from or sent to any tax authority in connection with any such tax
proceeding; provided, however, that a failure by such Affected Person to give
such notice or take any other action will not affect its rights to
indemnification pursuant to this clause (c) except to the extent the Borrower is
prejudiced as a consequence of such failure.

            The Borrower shall have the sole right to control, contest, resolve
and defend, any tax proceeding to the extent such proceeding pertains to a Tax
or Other Tax that the Borrower has paid pursuant to this clause (c); provided,
however, that (i) the Borrower shall provide the relevant Affected Person with a
timely and reasonably detailed account of each stage of any such tax proceeding,
(ii) the Borrower shall consult with such Affected Person before taking any
significant action in connection with any such tax proceeding, (iii) the
Borrower shall consult with such Affected Person and offer such Affected Person
an opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or
furnished in connection with any such tax proceeding, and (iv) the Borrower
shall not settle any such tax proceeding without the consent of such Affected
Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
The Borrower shall bear any expenses incurred by it in connection with any tax
proceeding to which this clause (c) applies.

                                       31
<PAGE>

            (d) Each Affected Person which is organized outside the United
States and which is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding
tax under the laws of the United States as in effect on the date hereof (or, in
the case of any Person which becomes an Affected Person after the date hereof,
on the date on which it so becomes an Affected Person with respect to any
payments under this Agreement) shall, on or prior to the date hereof (or, in the
case of any Person who becomes an Affected Person after the date hereof, on or
prior to the date on which it so becomes an Affected Person), deliver to the
Borrower such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or Treasury Regulations issued
pursuant thereto, including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI
and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1441-1(a) or Section 1.1441-6(c) or any subsequent version
thereof, properly completed and duly executed by such Affected Person as will
permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. On or
before the date that the most recent form, certificate or document previously
provided expires or becomes obsolete, or promptly after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or document
previously provided, each such Affected Person shall deliver to the Borrower any
new certificates, documents or other evidence as described in the preceding
sentence as will permit payments under this Agreement to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate (but only so long as such Affected Person is
legally able to do so).

            (e) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amounts to any
Affected Person in respect of Taxes and Other Taxes pursuant to clauses (a), (b)
and (c) above if the obligation to pay such amounts is attributable to the
failure by such Affected Person to comply with the provisions of clause (d)
above; provided, however, that should an Affected Person become subject to Taxes
because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall
take such steps as such Affected Person shall reasonably request to assist such
Affected Person to recover such Taxes.

            (f) If any Affected Person determines in its sole discretion that it
has actually received any refund of tax in connection with any deduction or
withholding or payment of any additional amount by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.08 such Affected Person shall reimburse the Borrower in an amount
equal to such refund, after tax, and net of all expenses incurred by such Person
in connection with such refund. The Borrower shall return such amount to the
applicable Person in the event that such Person is required to repay such refund
of tax. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall interfere with the right of
each of the Affected Persons to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it
thinks fit, nor to disclose any information or any computations relating to its
tax affairs or to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from
other credits, relief, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

            SECTION 2.09. Security Interest. To secure the performance by the
Borrower of all the terms, covenants and agreements on the part of the Borrower
(whether as Borrower or otherwise) to be performed under this Agreement, the
Transaction Documents or any other document delivered in connection with this
Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, including the punctual payment
when due of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, whether for
Principal, Yield, Fees, indemnification payments, expenses or otherwise (all of
the foregoing, collectively, the "Obligations"), the Borrower hereby grants to
the Program Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Beneficiaries, a
security interest in, all of the

                                       32
<PAGE>

Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the following (collectively, the
"Collateral") (a) the Purchase Agreements and the Parent Undertakings,
including, without limitation, (i) all rights of the Borrower to receive monies
due or to become due under or pursuant to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent
Undertakings, (ii) all security interests and property subject thereto from time
to time purporting to secure payment of monies due or to become due under or
pursuant to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings, (iii) all rights
of the Borrower to receive proceeds of any insurance, indemnity, warranty or
guaranty with respect to the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings,
(iv) claims of the Borrower for damages arising out of or for breach of or
default under the Purchase Agreements or the Parent Undertakings, and (v) the
right of the Borrower to compel performance and otherwise exercise all remedies
thereunder, (b) all Transferred Assets, whether now owned and existing or
hereafter acquired or arising, and all other assets, including, without
limitation, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, payment intangibles and
general intangibles (as those terms are defined in the UCC), including undivided
interests in any of the foregoing, (c) the Lockboxes, Deposit Accounts,
Borrower's Account and any other deposit accounts, (d) all other property or
interests in property, and (e) to the extent not included in the foregoing, all
proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.

            SECTION 2.10. Sharing of Payments. If any Lender (for purposes of
this Section only, referred to as a "Recipient") shall obtain payment (whether
voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or
otherwise) on account of the Principal of, or Yield on, any Advance or portion
thereof owned by it in excess of its ratable share of payments made on account
of the Principal of, or Yield on (other than additional Yield payable pursuant
to Section 2.07 hereof), all of the Advances held by the Lenders, such Recipient
shall forthwith purchase from the Lenders which received less than their ratable
share participations in the Advances made by such Persons as shall be necessary
to cause such Recipient to share the excess payment ratably with each such other
Person; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such Recipient, such purchase from each such other
Person shall be rescinded and each such other Person shall repay to the
Recipient the purchase price paid by such Recipient for such participation to
the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such other
Person's ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such
other Person's required payment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the
Recipient) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Recipient in
respect of the total amount so recovered.

            SECTION 2.11. Right of Setoff. Without in any way limiting the
provisions of Section 2.09, the Program Agent and each Lender is hereby
authorized (in addition to any other rights it may have) at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Termination to set-off,
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 Program Agent or such Lender to, or for the account of, the
Borrower, the Servicer or any Originator against any amount owing by the
Borrower, the Servicer or such Originator, respectively, to such Person or to
the Program Agent on behalf of such Person (even if contingent or unmatured).

            SECTION 2.12. Facility Increase.

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       33
<PAGE>

            (a) General. The Borrower may request, in writing, to increase the
aggregate Commitments by up to $10,000,000 (the "Facility Increase"); provided,
however, that such increase will only become effective if (i) the Borrower shall
have given the Program Agent at least 5 Business Days' notice of its intention
to effect a Facility Increase and the desired amount of such Facility Increase,
(ii) no Event of Termination or Incipient Event of Termination has occurred and
is continuing, (iii) one or more Lenders or Eligible Assignees agree to
participate in such Facility Increase, (iv) the conditions precedent to an
Advance set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied as of such date, and (v) if
requested by the Program Agent, an opinion of counsel to the Borrower in form
and substance and from counsel satisfactory to the Program Agent addressing such
matters as the Program Agent may reasonably request shall be delivered to the
Program Agent.

            (b) Procedures. The Borrower shall have the right to offer such
increase to (x) the existing Lenders, and each existing Lender will have the
right, but not the obligation, to commit to all or a portion of the proposed
increase or (y) other Eligible Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Program
Agent; provided, however, that the minimum aggregate Commitment of each such new
Eligible Assignee accepting a Commitment as part of such Facility Increase
equals or exceeds $1,000,000, and such Lender or Eligible Assignee executes an
assumption agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Program Agent) pursuant to which such Lender agrees to commit to all or a
portion of such Facility Increase and, in the case of an Eligible Assignee, to
be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Lender. On the effective date
provided for in such assumption agreement providing for a Facility Increase
(each a "Facility Increase Effective Date"), the Commitments will be increased
by the additional amount committed to by each Lender or Eligible Assignee on the
Facility Increase Effective Date. In the event there are Lenders and Eligible
Assignees that have committed to a Facility Increase in excess of the maximum
amount requested (or permitted), then the Program Agent shall have the right to
allocate such commitments, first to Lenders and then to Eligible Assignees, on
whatever basis the Program Agent determines is appropriate in consultation with
the Borrower.

            (c) Funding of Facility Increase. On the Facility Increase Effective
Date, each Lender and Eligible Assignee providing a portion of the Facility
Increase shall transfer immediately available funds to the Program Agent in an
amount equal to its Ratable Share (after giving effect to such Facility
Increase) of outstanding Principal. The Program Agent shall distribute such
amounts among the Lenders such that, after giving effect to such distribution

more than one request for a Facility Increase; provided, however, that the
aggregate amount of the Facility Increase effected pursuant to all such requests
does not exceed $10,000,000.

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

            SECTION 4.01. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The
Borrower hereby represents and warrants as follows, which representations and
warranties shall be deemed repeated on each day on which an Advance is made or a

            (a) The Borrower is a corporation organized, duly incorporated,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
its organizational identification number is 03-0591832, and it is duly qualified
to do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction where the nature
of its business requires it to be so qualified.

            (b) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the
Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the other documents to be
delivered by it hereunder, including the Borrower's use of the proceeds of
Advances, (i) are within the Borrower's corporate powers, (ii) have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action, (iii) do not contravene (A) the
Borrower's Charter Documents, (B) any law, rule or regulation applicable to the
Borrower, (C) any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower
or its property or (D) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree
binding on or affecting the Borrower or its property, and (iv) do not result in
or require the creation of any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to any of its
properties (except for the interest created pursuant to this Agreement). Each of
the Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a party has been duly
executed and delivered by the Borrower.

            (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice
to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for

                                       37
<PAGE>

            (d) Each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable
against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability
Exceptions.

            (e) Since its date of formation, there has been no Material Adverse
Change with respect to Borrower.

            (f) (i) Except as disclosed in the Parent's or any Originator's
publicly available SEC filings or otherwise disclosed in writing to the Program
Agent after the date hereof, there is no pending or threatened action,
investigation or proceeding affecting the Borrower before any court,
governmental agency or arbitrator and (ii) except as set forth in Schedule
4.01(f) or as otherwise disclosed by the Parent in its publicly available SEC
filings, there is no pending or threatened action, investigation or proceeding
affecting the Parent or any of its other Subsidiaries before any court,
governmental agency or arbitrator which if determined adversely to any of them,
could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a
Material Adverse Effect.

            (g) No proceeds of any Advances will be used to acquire any equity
security of a class which is registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

            (h) The Borrower is the legal and beneficial owner of the Collateral
free and clear of any Adverse Claim. The Program Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders has a valid and perfected first priority security interest in the
Collateral. No effective financing statement or other instrument similar in
effect covering any Collateral is on file in any recording office, except those
filed in favor of the Program Agent relating to this Agreement and those filed
pursuant to the Purchase Agreements. Subject to the final sentence of the
definition of "Eligible Receivable" set forth therein, each Receivable
characterized in any Report or other written statement made by or on behalf of
the Borrower as an Eligible Receivable, or included in the Net Receivables Pool
Balance is, as of the date of such Report or other statement (or, if applicable,
as of a date certain specified in such report), an Eligible Receivable and is
properly included in the Net Receivables Pool Balance.

            (i) Each Report (in each case if prepared by the Borrower or one of
its Affiliates, or to the extent that information contained therein is supplied
by the Borrower or an Affiliate), and all written information, exhibits,
financial statements, documents, books, records and reports furnished or to be
furnished at any time by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Program Agent or
the Lenders in connection with and before or after the date of this Agreement
are or will be accurate in all material respects as of the date so furnished
(or, if applicable, as of a date certain specified in such report), and no such
document contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the
statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading.

            (j) The principal place of business and chief executive office of
the Borrower and the office where the Borrower keeps its books and records
concerning the Collateral are located at the address or addresses referred to in
Section 5.01(b).

                                       38
<PAGE>

            (k) The names and addresses of all the Deposit Banks, together with
the post office boxes and account numbers of the Lockboxes, Deposit Accounts,
Borrower's Account and all other deposit accounts of Borrower are as specified
in Schedule 4.01(k) hereto, as such Schedule 4.01(k) may be updated from time to
time pursuant to Section 5.01(g). The Lockboxes and Deposit Accounts are the
only post office boxes and bank accounts into which Collections of Receivables
are deposited or remitted. The Borrower has delivered to the Program Agent (i) a
fully executed Deposit Account Agreement with respect to each Deposit Account
and any associated Lockboxes and (ii) a fully executed Account Control Agreement
with respect to Borrower's Account and each other deposit account of Borrower.

            (l) The Borrower has advised its independent certified public
accountants that the Program Agent have been authorized to review and discuss
with such accountants, as they may reasonably request, any and all financial
statements and other information of any kind that such accountants may have
which relate to the Collateral, and the Borrower has directed such accountants
to comply with any reasonable request of the Program Agent for such information.

            (m) The Borrower is not known by and does not use any trade name or
doing-business-as name.

            (n) The Borrower was incorporated on May 10, 2006, and the Borrower
did not engage in any business activities prior to the date of this Agreement.
The Borrower has no Subsidiaries. SPE I is the sole owner of the Stock issued by
the Borrower, all of which is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and
there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire any Stock in the
Borrower.

            (o) The Borrower is Solvent.

            (p) With respect to each Transferred Asset the Borrower (i) shall
have received such Transferred Asset as a contribution to the capital of the
Borrower by SPE I, (ii) shall have purchased such Transferred Asset from SPE I
in exchange for payment (made by the Borrower to SPE I in accordance with the
provisions of the Secondary Purchase Agreement) of cash or (iii) shall have
received such Transferred Asset partially as a capital contribution and
partially for payment in cash, in each case in an amount which constitutes fair
consideration and reasonably equivalent value. Each such sale referred to in the
preceding sentence shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent
debt owed by SPE I to the Borrower.

            (q) The Borrower has timely filed or caused to be filed all required
income tax and sales tax returns and reports and all other material tax returns
and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all
material taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment
received by the Borrower. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the
Borrower in respect of such taxes or charges imposed by a Governmental Entity
are, in the opinion of the Borrower, adequate for the payment thereof.

            (r) The Borrower is not and, after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated hereby, will not be, required to be registered as an "investment
company" within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

<PAGE>

            (s) Each Receivable (i) is of a nature that financing such
Receivable with the proceeds of notes would constitute a "current transaction"
within the meaning of Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and (ii) is an obligation representing part or all of the sales price of
merchandise, insurance or services within the meaning of Section 3(c)(5) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

            (t) Anti-Terrorism Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Borrower
is not and no Person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls
the Borrower is or shall be, (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons List maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control

Regulations"); or (ii) a Person (a "Designated Person") either (A) included
within the term "designated national" as defined in the Cuban Assets Control
Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (B) designated under Sections 1(a), 1(b),
1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published
September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling
legislation or any other similar Executive Orders (collectively, the "Executive
Orders"). The Borrower is not (x) a Person or entity with which any Lender is
prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any
Anti-Terrorism Law or (y) a Person or entity that commits, threatens or
conspires to commit or supports "terrorism" as defined in the Executive Orders
or (z) is affiliated or associated with a Person or entity listed in the
preceding clause (x) or clause (y). None of the Borrower, its Affiliates,
brokers or other agents acting in any capacity in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereunder (I) deals in, or otherwise engages in any
transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant
to the Executive Orders or (II) engages in or conspires to engage in any
transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or
attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism
Law.

            (u) No Violation of Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Neither the Borrower

investigation by any governmental authority for, or has been charged with, or

Agreement and any other documents to be delivered by it hereunder (i) are within
the Servicer's

law, rule or regulation applicable to the Servicer, the breach of which could

constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable
against the Servicer in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability
Exceptions.

            (e) Since January 31, 2006, there has been no Material Adverse

to any Advance to be made on such day or the repayment of Facility Principal to
be made on such day), the Facility Principal is not greater than the Borrowing
Base. Subject to the final sentence of the definition of "Eligible Receivable"
set forth therein, each Receivable characterized in any Report or other written
statement made by or on behalf of Servicer as an Eligible Receivable or included
in the Net Receivables Pool Balance is, as of the date of such Report or
statement (or, if applicable, as of a date certain specified in such
information), an Eligible Receivable and properly included in the Net
Receivables Pool Balance.

            (h) Specified on Schedule 4.01(k) hereto (as amended by the Servicer
from time to time in accordance with Section 6.08(a)) are (i) the Lockbox

information, exhibits, financial statements, documents, books, records and
reports furnished or to be furnished at any time by or on behalf of the Servicer

contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a
material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

            (k) The Servicer Fee will compensate the Servicer for (i) performing
the functions of a servicer, administrator and collector of the Transferred
Assets as an agent for the Borrower and the Program Agent, including billing,
collecting and posting all payments, responding to inquiries of Obligors and

Transferred Assets, including accounting for Collections and the furnishing,
periodically of the Reports to the Program Agent. The Servicer Fee will also
reimburse the Servicer for certain taxes, accounting fees, data-processing costs

in transactions of this type.

            (m) Anti-Terrorism Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Servicer
is not and no Person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls

investigation by any governmental authority for, or has been charged with, or

                                 OF RECEIVABLES

            SECTION 6.01. Designation of Servicer.

            (a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables
shall be conducted by the Servicer so designated hereunder from time to time.
Until the Program Agent gives notice to the Borrower of the designation of a new
Servicer in accordance with the terms hereof, HLIOC is hereby designated as, and
hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to
the terms hereof. At any time after the occurrence and during the

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       49
<PAGE>

continuance of a Servicer Default, the Program Agent may and, at the request of
the Required Lenders, the Program Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person
(including itself) to succeed the Parent or any successor Servicer, if such
Person shall consent and agree to the terms hereof. The Servicer may, with the
prior consent of the Program Agent and each Lender, subcontract with any other
Person (except that in the case of an Originator no such consent is required)
for the servicing, administration or collection of the Receivables. Any such
subcontract shall not affect the Servicer's liability for performance of its
duties and obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, and shall automatically
terminate upon designation of a successor Servicer. The Lenders and the Program
Agent shall not be deemed parties to such subcontract and shall have no
liabilities, obligations or duties with respect to such subcontractor.

            (b) HLIOC in its capacity as the Servicer shall not resign from the
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon the reasonable
determination by the Servicer that the performance of its duties hereunder is no
longer permissible under applicable law and there is no reasonable action which
HLIOC could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible
under applicable law. In any case, HLIOC agrees that, upon its resignation or
replacement as Servicer pursuant hereto, it will cooperate with the Program
Agent and the successor Servicer in effecting the termination of its
responsibilities and rights as Servicer hereunder, including, without
limitation: (i) assisting the successor Servicer in enforcing all rights under
the Collateral, (ii) transferring, promptly upon receipt, to the successor
Servicer any Collections or other amounts related to the Receivables, (iii)
transferring to the successor Servicer all books and records held by or under
the control of HLIOC, (iv) permitting the successor Servicer to have reasonable
access to all tapes, discs, diskettes and related property containing
information concerning the Collateral, and (v) in the Program Agent's
discretion, either continuing to use at the direction of the successor Servicer,
or taking all actions reasonably necessary to obtain a sublicense for a
successor Servicer to use, all computer software and hardware that may
facilitate the Servicer's access to and use of such information. Upon the
resignation or replacement of HLIOC as Servicer, HLIOC shall no longer be
entitled to the Servicer Fee accruing from and after the effective date of such
resignation or replacement.

            SECTION 6.02. Duties of Servicer.

            (a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as
may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all
in accordance in all respects with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with
reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy. The Borrower, the Program Agent and the Lenders hereby appoint the
Servicer, from time to time designated pursuant to Section 6.01, as agent for
themselves, to enforce their respective rights and interests in the Transferred
Assets. In performing its duties as Servicer, the Servicer shall exercise the
same care and apply the same policies as it would exercise and apply if it owned
such Transferred Assets and shall act in the best interests of the Borrower, the
Lenders and the Program Agent.

            (b) The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with
the procedures described in Section 2.03.

            (c) If no Event of Termination or Incipient Event of Termination
shall have occurred and be continuing, HLIOC, while it is the Servicer, may, in
accordance with the Credit

and Collection Policy, extend the maturity or adjust the Outstanding Balance of
any Receivable as it deems appropriate to maximize Collections thereof, or
otherwise amend or modify other terms of any Receivable, provided that the
classification of any such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted
Receivable hereunder shall not be affected by any such extension.

            (d) The Servicer shall hold in trust for the Borrower and each
Lender, in accordance with their respective interests, all documents,
instruments and records (including, without limitation, computer tapes or disks)
which evidence or relate to Transferred Assets. The Servicer shall mark each
Originator's master data processing records evidencing the Transferred Assets
with a legend, acceptable to the Program Agent, evidencing that such Transferred
Assets have been sold to the Borrower; such an acceptable legend would be "This
writing and the obligations evidenced hereby have been sold to Hayes Funding II,
Inc. and Hayes Funding II, Inc. has pledged its interest therein to Citicorp
USA, Inc. ("CUSA"), in its capacity as program agent, and any pledge, assignment
or other transfer hereof or of an interest herein would be a violation of CUSA's
rights."

            (e) The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt,
turn over to the Person entitled thereto any cash collections or other cash
proceeds received that are not Collections of the Receivables or proceeds of the
Collateral.

            (f) The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the
Program Agent and furnish to the Program Agent (promptly after any such request)
a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.03.

            (g) The Servicer shall prepare and provide to the Program Agent:

                  (i) on each Business Day during a Daily Reporting Period, by
no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), a Daily Report as of the prior

and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Servicer.

related to the Receivables and the exercise by the Program Agent on behalf of
the Lenders of their rights under this Agreement shall not release the
Originators, the Servicer or the Borrower from any of their duties or
obligations with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts. Neither the
Program Agent, nor the Lenders shall have any obligation or liability with
respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them or the
Borrower be obligated to perform the obligations of the Originators thereunder.

            (c) In the event of any conflict between the provisions of Article
VI of this Agreement and Article VI of any Purchase Agreement, the provisions of
Article VI of this Agreement shall control.

<PAGE>

            SECTION 6.05. Further Assurances. The Borrower agrees from time to
time, at its expense, to promptly execute and deliver all further instruments
and documents, and to take all further actions, that may be reasonably necessary
or desirable, or that the Program Agent may reasonably request, to perfect,
protect or more fully evidence the security interest granted hereunder, or to
enable the Lenders or the Program Agent to exercise and enforce their respective
rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Borrower and each Originator hereby authorizes the
filing of any financing statements or continuation statements, and amendments to
financing statements, in any jurisdictions as the Program Agent may reasonably
determine are necessary to perfect the security interest granted to the Program
Agent pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof or the interests assigned pursuant to the
Purchase Agreements. Such financing statements filed against the Borrower may
describe the Collateral in the same manner specified in Section 2.09 hereof or
in any other manner as the Program Agent may reasonably determine is necessary
to ensure the perfection of such security interest, including, without
limitation, describing such property as all assets or all personal property of
the Borrower whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

            SECTION 6.06. Covenants of the Servicer. Until the later of the
Commitment Termination Date and the date on which all Obligations shall be paid
in full, unless the Program Agent shall otherwise consent, the Servicer:

            (a) Extension or Amendment of Receivables. Except as otherwise
permitted in Section 6.02(c), will not extend, amend, waive or otherwise modify,
the terms of any Receivable.

            (b) Change in Business or Credit and Collection Policy. Will not
make any change in the character of its business or make any change in the
Credit and Collection Policy that would impair the collectibility of the
Receivables. In the event that the Servicer or any Originator makes any change
to the Credit and Collection Policy, it shall, contemporaneously with such
change, provide the Program Agent with an updated Credit and Collection Policy
and a summary of all changes.

            (c) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Will not add or
terminate any bank, post office box or bank account as a Deposit Bank, Lockbox
or Deposit Account from those listed in Schedule 4.01(k) to this Agreement, or
make any change in its instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to
the Borrower or payments to be made to any such box or account, unless the
Program Agent shall have received notice of such addition, termination or change
(including an updated Schedule 4.01(k)) and a fully executed Deposit Account
Agreement with each new Deposit Bank or Account Lender or with respect to each
new such box or account.

            (d) Deposits to Lockboxes and Deposit Accounts. Will (or will cause
the Borrower or the Originators to) (i) instruct all Obligors to remit all their
payments in respect of Receivables to Deposit Accounts or Lockboxes associated
therewith, and (ii) use ongoing commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
compliance with such instructions from those Obligors who have failed to so
comply. If the Servicer shall receive any Collections directly, it shall
immediately (and in any event within one Business Day) deposit the same to a
Deposit Account. The Servicer will not deposit or otherwise credit, or cause or
permit to be so deposited or

                                       54

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT
<PAGE>

credited, to any Lockbox or Deposit Account cash proceeds other than Collections
of Receivables.

            (e) Maintenance of Records. Will maintain and implement
administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an
ability to recreate records evidencing Receivables and related Contracts in the
event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all
documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or
advisable for the collection of all Receivables (including, without limitation,
records adequate to permit the daily identification of each Receivable and all
Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable).

            SECTION 6.07. Indemnities by the Servicer. Without limiting any
other rights that the Program Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective
Affiliates or members or any of their respective officers, directors, employees
or advisors (each, an "Indemnified Party") may have hereunder or under
applicable law (including, without limitation, the right to recover damages for
breach of contract), and in consideration of its appointment as Servicer, the
Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any
and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages and related costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) (all of the foregoing
being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts") arising out of or
resulting from any of the following (excluding, however, all claims, losses,
liabilities, damages and related costs and expenses arising (1) solely from a
breach of such Indemnified Party's obligations hereunder, as determined by a
final, nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (2) from
recourse for Receivables which are not collected, not paid or uncollectible on
account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or financial inability to pay of the
applicable Obligor):

                  (i) any representation made or deemed made by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 4.02(g) hereof which shall have been incorrect in any
respect when made or deemed made or any other representation or warranty or
statement made or deemed made by the Servicer under or in connection with this
Agreement which shall have been false or incorrect in any respect when made or
deemed made;

                  (ii) the failure by the Servicer to comply with any applicable
law, rule or regulation with respect to any Transferred Asset; or the failure of
any Transferred Asset to conform to any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

                  (iii) any failure of the Servicer to perform its duties or
obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or otherwise
comply with any term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement or any
Transaction Document to which it is a party;

                  (iv) the commingling of Collections of Receivables (or any
other Related Security) at any time by the Servicer with other funds;

                  (v) any Servicer Fees or other costs and expenses payable to
any replacement Servicer, to the extent in excess of the Servicer Fees payable
to the Servicer hereunder;

                  (vi) any act or omission by the Servicer which reduces or
impairs the rights of the Program Agent or any Lender with respect to any
Collateral; or

                  (vii) any claim brought by any Person other than an
Indemnified Party arising from any activity by the Servicer or its Affiliates in
servicing, administering or collecting any Transferred Assets.

Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 6.07 shall
be paid by the Servicer to the related Indemnified Party within five (5)
Business Days following demand therefor accompanied by reasonable supporting
documentation with respect to such amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, solely for purposes of this Section 6.07, any
representation, warranty or covenant qualified by materiality or the occurrence
of a Material Adverse Effect shall not be so qualified.

            SECTION 6.08. Establishment of Deposit Accounts.

            (a) Deposit Accounts. On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the
Servicer for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, shall establish and maintain or
cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Borrower (i) Lockboxes
to which Obligors will remit payments with respect to Receivables and (ii)
Deposit Accounts with an Eligible Institution. Obligors will be directed to
remit payments with respect to Receivables owing by them to a Lockbox or a
Deposit Account in accordance with the terms of Section 6.06(c). The Lockboxes
and Deposit Accounts shall be under the control of the Program Agent for the
benefit of the Beneficiaries, and on and after the Transfer Event Date, neither
the Borrower, the Servicer, the Parent nor any Person claiming by, through or
under the Borrower, the Servicer, or the Parent, shall have any right to
withdraw any amount from, any Lockbox or Deposit Account.

            (b) No Changes to Lockboxes or Deposit Accounts. The Servicer will
not (i) make any change in any Lockbox numbers, the name, address or ABA number
of any Deposit Bank or Account Lender or the account number of any Deposit

            (a) The Borrower shall establish, with an Eligible Institution a
segregated non-interest bearing deposit account accessible only by the Program
Agent (the "Facility Account"), which shall be identified as the "Facility
Account for the Hayes Lemmerz Receivables Financing Agreement" and shall bear a
designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the
benefit of the Beneficiaries. Except as specifically provided in Section 2.11
hereof and otherwise in this Agreement, the Program Agent agrees that it shall
have no right of set-off or banker's lien against and no right to otherwise
deduct from any funds held

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       56

in the Facility Account for any amount owed to it by any Beneficiary, the
Borrower, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc.or any Originator. The
tax identification number associated with the Facility Account shall be that of
the Borrower.

            (b) The Program Agent shall possess all right, title and interest in
and to all funds on deposit from time to time in, and all Eligible Investments
credited to, the Facility Account and in all proceeds thereof. The Facility
Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Program Agent for
the benefit of the Beneficiaries. If, at any time, the Facility Account is held
by an institution other than an Eligible Institution, the Program Agent (or the
Servicer, at the direction of the Program Agent and on its behalf) shall within
5 Business Days establish a new Facility Account meeting the conditions
specified in clause (a) above and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments
to such new Facility Account. Neither the Borrower, the Servicer nor any Person
or entity claiming by, through or under the Borrower, the Servicer or any such
Person or entity shall have any right, title or interest in, or any right to
withdraw any amount from, the Facility Account, except as expressly provided
herein. Schedule 6.09(b) identifies the Facility Account by setting forth the
identification name of such account, the account number of each such account,
the account designation of each such account and the name and location of the
institution with which such account has been established. If a substitute
Facility Account is established pursuant to this Section 6.09, the party
establishing such substitute Facility Account shall promptly provide to the
Servicer, an amended Schedule 6.09(b), setting forth the relevant information
for such substitute Facility Account.

            (c) The Program Agent is hereby authorized, unless otherwise
directed by the Servicer, to effect transactions in Eligible Investments through
a capital markets Affiliate of the Program Agent, provided, that any transaction
through such an Affiliate will be on market terms comparable to those offered by
such Affiliate to non-Affiliates.

or termination of the independent director), such failure shall remain
unremedied for 15 days or (B) if such failure to perform or observe Section

respect of, or to cause a trustee to be appointed to administer, any Plan; or a

decree adjudicating that any Plan must be terminated; or there shall occur a
complete or partial withdrawal from, or a default, within the meaning of Section
4219(c)(5) of ERISA, with respect to, one or more Multiemployer Plans which
could cause the Parent and/or one or more ERISA Affiliates to incur a current
payment obligation in excess of $2,000,000; or (ii) any other ERISA Event shall
have occurred that, in the opinion of the Program Agent, when taken together
with all other ERISA Events that have occurred, could reasonably be expected to
result in liability of the Parent, the ERISA Affiliates and any Subsidiaries in
an aggregate amount exceeding $2,000,000;

            (o) (i) The Parent shall fail to make any payment required by a
Parent Undertaking, (ii) the Parent shall fail to perform or observe any other

            (p) A Servicer Default shall occur (other than a Servicer Default of
the type specified (i) in clause (c) of the definition thereof to the extent
that the failure to perform any term, covenant or agreement giving rise to such
Servicer Default remains unremedied for less than fifteen days or (ii) in clause
(f) of the definition thereof) or HLIOC shall resign or cease to perform as
Servicer hereunder other than as permitted pursuant to Section 6.02(b) or as a
result of termination or replacement by the Program Agent in accordance with
Article VI;

            (q) The PBGC or the Internal Revenue Service shall, or shall

I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Borrower or any Originator; or

            (r) Any Transaction Document shall cease to be in full force and
effect, or the Borrower, any Originator, the Servicer, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC,

thereof;

then, and in any such event, any or all of the following actions may be taken by
notice to the Borrower: (y) the Program Agent may in its discretion, and shall,
at the direction of the Required Lenders, declare the Commitment Termination
Date to have occurred (in which case the

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       60
<PAGE>

Commitment Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred), and (z) if such
event is a Servicer Default, and without limiting any other right under this
Agreement to replace the Servicer, the Program Agent may in its discretion, and
shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, designate another Person to
succeed HLIOC as the Servicer; provided, that, automatically upon the occurrence
of any event (without any requirement for the passage of time or the giving of
notice) described in Section 7.01(g), the Commitment Termination Date shall
occur, HLIOC (if it is then serving as the Servicer) shall cease to be the
Servicer, and the Program Agent or its designee shall become the Servicer. Upon
any such declaration or designation or upon such automatic termination, the
Lenders and the Program Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies
which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided
after default under the UCC and under other applicable law, which rights and
remedies shall be cumulative.

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, if any Event of
Termination set forth in Section 7.01(c), (d), (i) or (j) (with respect to the
Originator Purchase Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing with
respect to any Originator (solely for the purposes of such determination, the
provisions of the Transaction Documents shall be construed as applying severally
to each Originator and not jointly), and if (1) such Originator is deemed a
"Defaulting Originator" in accordance with the Originator Purchase Agreement,
(2) the Program Agent shall have received written notice from such Originator of
its election to be treated as a "Defaulting Originator" hereunder within two
Business Days of the occurrence of such Event of Termination, (3) no other Event
of Termination shall have occurred and be continuing, and (4) the sum of (x) the
aggregate existing Defaulting Originator Percentages and (y) the Defaulting
Originator Percentage that would be applicable to such Originator if such
Originator were deemed a Defaulting Originator hereunder, would not exceed 15%,
then such Originator shall become a "Defaulting Originator" under the
Transaction Documents, and such Events of Termination as they relate to such
Defaulting Originator shall be deemed cured (and no longer applicable to such
Defaulting Originator) and the Commitment Termination Date may no longer be
declared solely as a result thereof.

From and after the earlier of (i) the date upon which HL Funding I, LLC and HL
Funding II, Inc. are dissolved and (ii) the date which the outstanding balance
of each of the Receivables transferred pursuant to the Receivables Purchase
Agreement is reduced to zero or is written off in a manner consistent with the
Credit and Collection Policy, each reference to HL Funding I, LLC and HL Funding
II, Inc. shall be deemed to be deleted from this Article VII without any action
by any Person.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                THE PROGRAM AGENT

            SECTION 8.01. Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby appoints
and authorizes the Program Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and
to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents
as are delegated to the Program Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together
with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Program Agent shall
not have any duties other than those expressly set forth in the Transaction
Documents, and no implied obligations or liabilities shall be read into

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       61

any Transaction Document, or otherwise exist, against the Program Agent. The
Program Agent does not assume, nor shall it be deemed to have assumed, any
obligation to, or relationship of trust or agency with, the Borrower, SPE I, HL
Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent, the Servicer or any Originator.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, in no event shall the Program Agent ever be required to take any
action which exposes the Program Agent to personal liability or which is
contrary to any provision of any Transaction Document or applicable law.

            SECTION 8.02. Program Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Program
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Program Agent under
or in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Program
Agent's servicing, administering or collecting Receivables as Servicer) or any
other Transaction Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or
willful misconduct as determined by a final, nonappealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Program Agent: (a) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the
Borrower, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent, any
Originator and the Servicer), independent certified public accountants and other
experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts; (b) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender
(whether written or oral) and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any
statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or
in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; (c) shall
not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance
of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document on the part of the Borrower, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL
Funding II, Inc., the Parent, any Originator or the Servicer or to inspect the
property (including the books and records) of the Borrower, SPE I, HL Funding I,
LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent, any Originator or the Servicer; (d) shall
not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant
hereto or thereto; and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document by acting upon any notice (including
notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which
may be by telecopier or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent
by the proper party or parties.

            SECTION 8.03. CUSA and Affiliates. The obligation of CUSA to make
Advances under this Agreement may be satisfied by any Affiliate of CUSA. With
respect to any Advance made by it, CUSA shall have the same rights and powers
under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not the Program Agent. CUSA and any of its Affiliates may generally engage in
any kind of business with the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator, SPE I, HL
Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Servicer or any Obligor, any of their
respective Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities
of the Borrower, the Parent, any Originator, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL
Funding II, Inc., the Servicer or any Obligor or any of their respective
Affiliates, all as if CUSA were not the Program Agent and without any duty to
account therefor to any Beneficiary.

            SECTION 8.04. Indemnification of Program Agent. Each Lender agrees
to indemnify the Program Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower,
the Parent or any Originator), ratably according to the respective Ratable
Shares of such Lender, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by, or asserted against the Program Agent in any way relating to or arising out
of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any action taken or
omitted by the Program Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction
Document, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Program Agent's gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, nonappealable
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

            SECTION 8.05. Delegation of Duties. The Program 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 Program
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of the Program
Agent or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

            SECTION 8.06. Action or Inaction by Program Agent. The Program Agent
shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action
under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of the Lenders and assurance of its indemnification by the Lenders,
as it deems appropriate. The Program Agent shall in all cases be fully protected
in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document in accordance with a request or at the direction of any
Lender and such request or direction and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders and the Program Agent.

            SECTION 8.07. Notice of Events of Termination. The Program Agent
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any
Incipient Event of Termination or of any Event of Termination unless the Program
Agent has received written notice from any Lender, the Servicer, any Originator,
SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc. or the Borrower stating that an
Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination has occurred hereunder
and describing such Incipient Event of Termination or Event of Termination. If
the Program Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof
to each Lender. The Program Agent shall take such action concerning an Incipient
Event of Termination or an Event of Termination as may be directed by the
Required Lenders (subject to the other provisions of this Article VIII), but
until the Program Agent receives such directions, the Program Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
as the Program Agent deems advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders.

            SECTION 8.08. Non-Reliance on Program Agent and Other Parties. Each
Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Program Agent, any of its
Affiliates nor any of their respective, directors, officers, agents or employees
has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Program
Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, the
Servicer, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent or any
Originator, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the
Program

<PAGE>

Agent. Each Lender represents and warrants to the Program Agent that,
independently and without reliance upon the Program Agent, any of its
Affiliates, or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Borrower,
the Parent and the Originators, and the Advances and its own decision to enter
into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under this Agreement or any
other Transaction Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by the Program Agent to
any Lender, the Program Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to
provide any Lender with any information concerning the Borrower, the Servicer,
SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent or any Originator or
any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of the Program Agent or
any of its directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or
Affiliates.

            SECTION 8.09. Successor Program Agents; Resignation of Program
Agents.

            (a) Resignation. The Program Agent may resign from the performance
of its functions and duties hereunder at any time by giving at least thirty (30)
Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower and the Lenders.

            (b) Appointment by Required Lenders. Upon any such notice of
resignation by the Program Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to
appoint a successor Program Agent selected from among the Lenders, which
appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of Borrower (which
may not be unreasonably withheld, and shall not be required upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Termination).

            (c) Appointment by Retiring Program Agent. If a successor Program
Agent shall not have been appointed within the thirty (30) Business Day period
provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 8.09, the retiring Program Agent, with
the consent of Borrower (which may not be unreasonably withheld, and shall not
be required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Termination), shall then appoint a successor Program Agent who shall serve as
Program Agent until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor Program Agent as provided above.

            (d) Rights of the Successor and Retiring Program Agents. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Program Agent hereunder by a successor Program
Agent, such successor Program Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested
with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Program Agent
and the retiring Program Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder thereafter to be performed. After the resignation of any
Program Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to such
Persons' benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it
was the Program Agent hereunder.

            (e) Effectiveness of Resignation. The resignation of the Program
Agent shall be effective immediately upon the acceptance by a successor Program
Agent of appointment pursuant to this Section 8.09. However, if either (i) upon
the date of any resignation by the Program Agent determining, in its sole
discretion, that being such Program Agent poses a

                                       64
<PAGE>

conflict of interest for such institution or (ii) otherwise within forty-five
(45) days after written notice is given of the retiring Program Agent's
resignation under this Section 8.09 no successor Program Agent shall have been
appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on (x) the circumstance
described in clause (i) above, the date of such resignation of, and (y)
otherwise such 45th day, (A) the retiring Program Agent's resignation shall
become effective, (B) the retiring Program Agent shall thereupon be discharged
from its duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents and (C) the
Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Program
Agent under the Transaction Documents until such time, if any, as the Required
Lenders appoint a successor Program Agent as provided above.

            SECTION 8.10. Reports and Notices. The Program Agent hereby agrees
to provide each Lender with copies of all material notices, reports and other
documents provided to the Program Agent by the Borrower or the Servicer
hereunder which are not otherwise required to be provided by the Borrower or the
Servicer directly to the Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

            SECTION 9.01. Indemnities by the Borrower. Without limiting any
other rights that any Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable
law (including, without limitation, the right to recover damages for breach of
contract), the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from
and against any and all Indemnified Amounts arising out of or resulting from
this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the use of proceeds of the
Advances or the security interest granted hereunder or in respect of any
Collateral, excluding, however, Indemnified Amounts to the extent found in a
final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from (a) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such
Indemnified Party, or (b) solely from a breach of such Indemnified Party's
obligations hereunder. Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the
Borrower shall pay on demand to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts
necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all
Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any of the following:

                  (i) the characterization (A) in any Report, or (B) for the
purpose of inclusion of a Receivable in the Net Receivables Pool Balance in any
other written statement made by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Program
Agent, of any Receivable as an Eligible Receivable or as included in the Net
Receivables Pool Balance which, as of the date on which such information was
certified, is not an Eligible Receivable or should not be included in the Net
Receivables Pool Balance;

                  (ii) any representation or warranty or statement made or
deemed made by the Borrower (or any of its officers) under or in connection with

incorrect in any respect when made or deemed made;

                  (v) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than
discharge in bankruptcy or insolvency of the related Obligor) of an Obligor to
the payment of any Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on
such Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding
obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms),
or any other claim resulting from the sale of the goods or services related to
such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such goods or services
(other than as a result of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the related Obligor)
or relating to collection activities with respect to such Receivable (if such
collection activities were performed by the Borrower acting as Servicer);

                  (vi) any failure of the Borrower to comply with any term,

                  (viii) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any
time with other funds;

                  (ix) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to
this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or the use of proceeds of
Advances or in respect of any Receivable or any Collateral;

                  (x) any claim brought by any Person other than an Indemnified
Party arising from any activity by the Borrower in servicing, administering or

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

               SECTION 10.01. Amendments.

            (a) General. Except to the extent otherwise set forth herein, no
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any
departure by the Borrower or HLIOC (as Servicer or otherwise) therefrom shall be
effective unless in a writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Program
Agent (and, in the case of any amendment, also signed by the Borrower and HLIOC)
and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the

Section 6.01; provided, further, however, that no amendment, waiver or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Servicer in addition to the
Program Agent and the Required Lenders, affect the rights or duties of the
Servicer under this Agreement. No failure on the part of the Banks or the
Program Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right.

            (b) Amendments, Consents and Waivers by all affected Lenders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment, modification, termination, waiver
or consent with respect to any of the following provisions of this Agreement
shall be effective only by a written agreement, signed by each Lender affected
thereby:

                (i) waiver of any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 or
      3.02 (except with respect to a condition based upon another provision in
      this Agreement, the waiver of which requires only the concurrence of the
      Required Lenders),

                (ii) increase in the amount of any of the Commitments of such
      Lender,

                (iii) reduction of the principal of, rate or amount of Yield on
      the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (other
      than by the payment or prepayment thereof),

                (iv) extension of the Commitment Termination Date or
      postponement of any date on which any payment of principal of, or Yield
      on, the Advances, any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender would
      otherwise be due,

                (v) change in the definitions of Commitment or Yield, and

                (vi) the orders of priority set forth in Section 2.03.

            (c) Amendments, Consents and Waivers by All Lenders. Any amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the
following provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only by a written
agreement, signed by each Lender:

                (i) release any substantial portion of the Collateral,

                (ii) change in the (A) definition of Required Lenders or (B) the
      aggregate Ratable Share of the Lenders which shall be required for the
      Lenders or any of them to take action under this Agreement or the other
      Transaction Documents,

                (iii) amendment of Sections 2.10, 10.03, 10.04, this Section
      10.01 or clause (i) of the definition of Borrowing Base, and

                (iv) assignment of any right or interest in or under this
      Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by Borrower.

            (d) The Program Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the
written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or
consents on behalf

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       68

of that Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 10.01, no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall affect the
rights or duties of the Program Agent hereunder or under the other Transaction
Documents, including this Article X, unless made in writing and signed by the
Program Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that Borrower
shall have requested, in writing, that any Lender agree to an amendment,
modification, waiver or consent with respect to any particular provision or
provisions hereof, and such Lender shall have failed to state, in writing, that
it either agrees or disagrees (in full or in part) with all such requests (it
being understood that any such statement of agreement may be subject to
satisfactory documentation and other conditions specified in such statement) on
or prior to date designated by the Program Agent (or such other time period as
may be designated in such amendment, modification, waiver or consent), then such
Lender shall be deemed to have disagreed with such request. Furthermore, in the
event that any Lender (other than CUSA or any Affiliate thereof) fails to agree
to any amendment, modification, waiver or consent requiring the unanimous
approval of the Lenders pursuant to Section 10.01(c), at the request of Borrower
or the Program Agent, the Lenders who have so agreed shall have the right (but
not the obligation) to, or to cause an Eligible Assignee to, purchase at par
from such Lender (at the face amount thereof) all Obligations and Commitment
held by such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if the Program Agent or Borrower
exercises its option hereunder, it shall promptly execute and deliver all
agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment as set
forth in Section 10.01. Any purchase of such Lender's Commitment and all other
Obligations owing to it must (i) occur within 30 Business Days from the date
that such Lender refuses to execute any amendment, waiver or consent which
requires the written consent of all of the Lenders and to which the Program
Agent, the other Lenders and Borrower have agreed and (ii) include an amount
payable to such Lender which is sufficient to compensate such Lender for any
loss, expense or liability as a result of any such purchase under this Section
10.01(d) which arises out of, or is in connection with, any funds acquired by
such Lender to make, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of
any Advance with a Eurodollar Rate Tranche applicable thereto.

            SECTION 10.02. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications
hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing and shall be
delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or
registered mail or sent by telecopy, to each party hereto, at its address set
forth on Schedule 1.01-4 hereto or at such other address or telecopy number as
shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties
hereto or, in the case of any Person that becomes a Lender hereunder after the
date hereof, in the Assignment and Acceptance executed by such Person. All
notices and other communications given to any party hereto shall be deemed to
have been given on the date of receipt.

            SECTION 10.03. Assignability.

            (a) This Agreement and the Lenders' rights and obligations herein
(including ownership of each Advance made by it) shall be assignable in whole or
in part by the Lenders and their successors and assigns to Eligible Assignees.
Each such assignor may, in connection with any such assignment, disclose to the
assignee or potential assignee any information relating to the Borrower, the
Servicer, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., the Parent or any
Originator, including the Collateral furnished to such assignor by or on behalf
of the Borrower,

the Parent, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL Funding II, Inc., Servicer, any
Originator or by the Program Agent; provided that, prior to any such disclosure,
the assignee or potential assignee agrees to preserve the confidentiality of any
such information which is confidential in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.06 hereof.

            (b) Each Lender may assign pursuant to Section 10.03(a) above to any
Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and
any Advances made by it); provided, however, that:

                  (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a
varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement,

                  (ii) the amount being assigned pursuant to each such
assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (x)
$10,000,000 and (y) all of the assigning Lender's Commitment, and

                  (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Program Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register,
an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the
effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee
thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent that rights and
obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the
assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have
been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish such
rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an
assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender
shall cease to be a party hereto).

            (c) The Program Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in
Section 10.02 of this Agreement a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and aggregate outstanding
Principal of Advances or interests therein owned by, each Lender from time to
time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the
Originators, the Program Agent, the Lenders may treat each person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Lender under this Agreement for all purposes of
this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower
or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an
assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Program Agent shall, if such
Assignment and Acceptance has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and
Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and
(iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

<PAGE>

            (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9.03, any
Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion
of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to payment of Principal and
Yield) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal
Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Program Agent;
provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

            (e) Neither the Borrower, the Parent, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL
Funding II, Inc., any Originator or the Servicer may assign its rights or
obligations hereunder or any other Transaction Document or any interest herein
or therein without the prior written consent of the Program Agent and the
Required Lenders.

            (f) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a "Participant") in
all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including the
outstanding Advances); provided that following the sale of a participation under
this Agreement (i) the obligations of such Lender shall remain unchanged, (ii)
such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Servicer, the
Program Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such Lender sells such
a participation shall provide that the Participant shall not have any right to
direct the enforcement of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or
to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; provided that such agreement or
instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (i) reduces the
amount of Principal or Yield that is payable on account of any Advance or delays
any scheduled date for payment thereof or (ii) reduces any fees payable by the
Borrower to the Program Agent or such Lender (to the extent relating to payments
to the Participant) or delays any scheduled date for payment of such fees. The
Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders' source of funds may derive in
part from its Participants. Accordingly, references in Sections 2.06, 2.07,
2.08, 6.07 and 10.04 and the other terms and provisions of this Agreement and
the other Transaction Documents to determinations, reserve and capital adequacy
requirements, expenses, increased costs, reduced receipts and the like as they
pertain to the Lenders shall be deemed also to include those of its
Participants; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to pay higher
costs, expenses and indemnification amounts pursuant to this sentence than would
be required to be paid by the Borrower in the absence of the sale of any
participation by any Lender to a Participant as contemplated by this Section
10.03(h). The Lenders and the Program Agent may, in connection with any such
participation, disclose to Participants and potential Participants any
information relating to the Borrower, the Servicer, SPE I, HL Funding I, LLC, HL
Funding II, Inc., the Parent or the Originators, including the Collateral,
furnished to the Lenders or the Program Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower,
Parent, Servicer or any Originator; provided that, prior to any such disclosure,
such Participant or potential Participant agrees to preserve the confidentiality
of any such information which is confidential in accordance with the provisions
of Section 10.06 hereof.

            (b) Each of the Borrower, the Parent, the Servicer and the
Originators consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or
proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to it at its address

of any Lender or the Program Agent to serve legal process in any other manner
permitted by law.

            (c) To the extent that the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any
immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether

execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

hereunder or under any other Transaction Document by or on behalf of CUSA in its
capacity as the Program Agent for the benefit of any Lender under any
Transaction Document (other than CUSA or an Affiliate of CUSA) and which is
applied in accordance with the Transaction Documents shall be deemed to be
exempt from the requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant
to Section 311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

            SECTION 10.13. Electronic Communications.

            (b) Borrower further agrees that the Program Agent may make the
Communications available to Borrower and its Affiliates by posting the
Communications on Intralinks, Fixed Income Director or a substantially similar
electronic transmission system (each such system, the "Platform"). Borrower
hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may be "public-side" Lenders
(i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with
respect to Borrower or its securities (each, a "Public Lender"), and Borrower
hereby agrees that all materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of
Borrower hereunder (collectively, the "Borrower Materials") may be posted on the
Platform and that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to
Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked "PUBLIC" by Borrower,
which shall mean, at a minimum, that the word "PUBLIC" shall appear prominently
on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking the Borrower Materials "PUBLIC",
Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Program Agent, the Lenders and
their Affiliates to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material
non-public information with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes
of United States Federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Borrower Materials
marked "PUBLIC" are permitted to be made available through a portion of the
Platform designated "Public Investor", and (iv) the Program Agent, Lenders and
their Affiliates shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not
so marked "PUBLIC" as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the
Platform not designated "Public Investor". Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials "PUBLIC".
Nothing in this clause (b) shall limit in any way the applicability of Section
10.06. Nothing in this Section 10.13 shall prejudice the right of the Program
Agent to give any notice or other communication pursuant hereto or to any other
Transaction Document in any other manner specified herein or therein. Borrower
acknowledges that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is
not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks
associated with such distribution.

            (c) The Program Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications
by the Program Agent at its e-mail address set forth in clause (a) above shall
constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Program Agent for
purposes of each Transaction Document. Each Lender and Borrower agrees that
e-mail notice to it (at the address provided pursuant to the next sentence and
deemed delivered as provided in clause (d) below) specifying that Communications
have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such
Communications to such Person under the Transaction Documents. Each Lender and
Borrower agrees (A) to notify the Program Agent in writing (including by
electronic communication) from time to time to ensure that the Program Agent has
on record an effective e-mail address for such Person to which the foregoing
notices may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing
notices may be sent to such e-mail address.

            (d) Each party hereto agrees that any electronic communication
referred to in this Section 10.13 shall be deemed delivered upon the posting of
a record of such

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

Communication as "sent" in the e-mail system of the sending party or, in the
case of any such Communication to the Program Agent, upon the posting of a
record of such Communication as "received" in the e-mail system of the Program
Agent; provided, however, that if such Communication is received by the Program
Agent after the normal business hours of the Program Agent, such Communication
shall be deemed delivered at the opening of business on the next Business Day
for the Program Agent.

            (e) BORROWER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES AS FOLLOWS: (A) THE
PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE"; (B) THE AGENT PARTIES (AS
DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE
COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY
FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS; AND (C) NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD
PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT
PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL
THE PROGRAM AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, THE "AGENT
PARTIES") HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO BORROWER, ANY SUBSIDIARY OF BORROWER, ANY LENDER
OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF
BORROWER'S OR PROGRAM AGENT'S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE
INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL
NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED
PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT PARTY'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

            (f) This Section 10.13 shall terminate on the date that no CUSA
Affiliate is the Program Agent under this Agreement.

            SECTION 10.14. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies Borrower
that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which
information that will allow such Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with
its requirements. Borrower shall promptly, following a request by Program Agent
or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Program
Agent or such Lender reasonably requests in order to comply with its ongoing
obligations under applicable "know your customer" and anti-money laundering
rules and regulations, including the USA Patriot Act.

            SECTION 10.15. Optional Sale and Release of Certain Receivables.

            (a) Subject to the conditions set forth below, from time to time,
the Borrower may sell and assign to the Servicer, all of its right, title and
interest in and to all or any portion of

                                              HL RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT

                                       77
<PAGE>

any Receivable that has been written off as uncollectible, in each case in
connection with a sale by the Servicer of such Receivable to a third party not
an Affiliate of Borrower or Servicer. The purchase price for such Receivables
shall be paid by the Servicer to the Borrower on the date of such sale and shall
equal the fair market value of such Receivables based on the price paid by the
third party to the Servicer and shall be acceptable to the Program Agent in its
reasonable credit judgment, which may be reduced by an amount agreed upon by the
Borrower, the Servicer and the Program Agent in an amount sufficient to
compensate the Servicer fairly for the service of arranging such sale. Any such
sale by the Borrower of such Receivables (i) shall occur on the same day as the
sale from the Servicer to the third party purchaser of the same Receivables,
(ii) shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by or
against Borrower, other than that the Borrower hereby represents to the Servicer
that, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section
10.15 for the release of the Program Agent's security interest in such
Receivables shall not be subject to any Lien created by Borrower, and (iii)
shall not be governed or evidenced by any document or instrument that has not
been previously approved in writing by the Program Agent.

            (b) On or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the date on
which written-off Receivables as described in the preceding paragraph will be
sold by the Borrower (the "Sale Date"), the Borrower shall give the Program
Agent written notice upon which the Program Agent may conclusively rely, that
all or the designated portion of such Receivables then held by the Borrower are
to be sold to Servicer (the "Designated Receivables"). Any such sale shall be
effected as of the opening of business on the applicable Sale Date. The Borrower
shall be permitted to designate and sell all of its right, title and interest in
and to the Designated Receivables to the Servicer only upon satisfaction of the
condition that on or prior to the Sale Date, the Borrower shall have delivered
to the Program Agent for execution by the Program Agent (1) a written assignment
(a "Reassignment") assigning to the Borrower all right, title and interest in
and to the Designated Receivables, all Related Security with respect to the
Designated Receivables and all proceeds thereof and (2) a computer file or other
list of the Designated Receivables.

            (c) Upon satisfaction of the above conditions on or prior to the
Sale Date, the Program Agent shall, at the expense of the Borrower, execute and
deliver the Reassignment to the Borrower. In addition, the Program Agent shall,
at the expense of the Borrower, take all other actions reasonably requested by
the Borrower and acceptable to the Program Agent, including facilitating the
filing by the Borrower of any UCC-3, upon the written direction of the Borrower,
necessary to terminate and release all liens, claims and security interests of
the Program Agent in the Designated Receivables, all Related Security with
respect to the Designated Receivables and all proceeds thereof created under
this Agreement. On the Sale Date, the Borrower shall cause the proceeds of the
sale of all Designated Receivables on such Sale Date to be deposited into the
Concentration Account.
