This Amendment is entered into by and between ePlus Technology, inc.

"2.1 Accounts Receivable Facility. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, CDF agrees to provide to Dealer an Accounts Receivable Facility of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00); provided, however, that at no time will the principal amount outstanding under the Accounts Receivable Facility and Dealer's inventory floorplan credit facility with CDF exceed, in the aggregate, Two Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000.00). CDF's decision to advance funds will not be binding until the funds are actually advanced.

In addition, subject to the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement for Wholesale Financing between CDF and Dealer dated July 23, 2012, as may be amended from time to time, CDF agrees to provide to Dealer an inventory floorplan credit facility of Two Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000.00); provided, however, that at no time will the principal amount outstanding under Dealer's inventory floorplan credit facility with CDF and Dealer's Accounts Receivable Facility exceed, in the aggregate, Two Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($225,000,000.00). CDF's decision to advance funds will not be binding until the funds are actually advanced."

Section 3.7 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

"3.7 Collections. Unless otherwise directed by CDF, to expedite collection of Accounts for the benefit of CDF, Dealer shall notify all of its obligors to make payment of the Accounts to one or more lock-boxes. The lock-box(es), and all accounts into which the proceeds of any such lock-box(es) are deposited, shall be established and maintained at banks selected by the Dealer and satisfactory to CDF in its sole discretion. Dealer shall issue to any such banks an irrevocable letter of instruction, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to CDF, directing such banks to deposit all payments or other remittances received in the lock-box to such account or accounts as CDF shall direct. At all times after either (i) a Default by Dealer, (ii) the principal amount outstanding under Dealer's Accounts Receivable Facility with CDF exceed, in the aggregate, Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00), or (iii) Dealer's Available Borrowing (as defined below) under Dealers Credit Facility with CDF is less than Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000.00), CDF may provide notice to such banks that thereafter all funds deposited in the lock-box or any such account immediately shall become the property of CDF, and any disbursements of the proceeds in the lock-box or any such account will only be made to CDF. Dealer shall obtain the agreement of such banks to waive any offset rights against the funds so deposited and otherwise establish CDF's control thereof as secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. CDF assumes no responsibility for such lock-box arrangement, including, without limitation, any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to deposits which any banks accept thereunder. All remittances which Dealer receives in payment of any Accounts, and the proceeds of any of the other Collateral, shall be immediately deposited in such accounts designated by CDF. All proceeds received or collected by CDF with respect to Accounts, and reserves and other property of Dealer in possession of CDF at any time or times hereafter, may be held by CDF without interest to Dealer until all Obligations are paid in full or applied by CDF on account of the Obligations. CDF may release to Dealer such portions of such reserves and proceeds as CDF may determine. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, CDF may notify the obligors that the Accounts have been assigned to CDF, collect the Accounts directly in its own name and charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, to Dealer. CDF has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Accounts to preserve rights in them."
