1

 

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Seller may, at its option, sell and
assign Purchaser Interests to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers by delivering a Purchase
Notice to the Agent and the Funding Agents in accordance with Section 1.2. In accordance
with the terms and conditions set forth herein during the period from the date hereof to but not
including the Facility Termination Date, each Conduit may in its sole discretion, instruct its
related Funding Agent to cause the Agent to purchase on its behalf Purchaser Interests offered for
sale from time to time hereunder, and, each Committed Purchaser shall, if the Conduit in its
related Purchaser Group elects not to, instruct its related Funding Agent to cause the Agent to
purchase on its behalf Purchaser Interests from time to time, in an amount, for each Purchaser
Group, equal to its Percentage of the Purchaser Interests then offered for sale by the Seller;
provided, however, that no Purchaser shall purchase any Purchaser Interests if, after giving effect
to the purchase thereof:

(i) the aggregate Capital of the Purchaser Interests held by such Purchaser hereunder
shall exceed its Conduit Purchase Limit (in the case of a Conduit) or Commitment (in the
case of a Committed Purchaser);

(ii) the aggregate Capital of the Purchaser Interests held by the Purchasers in any
Purchaser Group exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Committed Purchasers
in such Purchaser Group;

(iii) the Aggregate Capital shall exceed the Purchase Limit; or

(iv) the Purchaser Interests shall exceed 100%.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any Committed Purchaser fails to agree
to an extension of the Liquidity Termination Date in accordance with Section 1.5 hereof,
(i) such Committed Purchaser shall fund such Committed Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the Purchase
Price for such Purchaser Interest by making a Term-out Period Account Funded Incremental Purchase
and (ii) the Conduits in such Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group shall not make any Incremental
Purchases after the then existing Scheduled Liquidity Termination Date if after giving effect
thereto the aggregate Capital of all Purchaser Interests of such Conduits would exceed an amount
equal to (i) the applicable Purchaser Group Purchase Limit, minus (ii) the Commitment of the
Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser.

(c) Seller may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ notice to the Funding Agents, terminate in
whole or reduce in part, ratably among the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective
Percentages (and within each Purchaser Group, ratably among the Committed Purchasers in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares), the unused portion of the Purchase Limit; provided, that
each partial reduction of the Purchase Limit shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or an
integral multiple thereof.

Section 1.2 Increases.

(a) Seller shall provide the Funding Agents with prior notice in the form set forth as
Exhibit II hereto of each Incremental Purchase (a “Purchase Notice”) by 2:00 p.m.
(Chicago time), at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Incremental
Purchase. Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set
forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price and each Purchaser
Group’s Percentage thereof (which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple
of $100,000) and date of purchase (which shall be a Business Day) and, in the event all or a
portion of such Incremental Purchase is to be funded by one or more Committed Purchasers, the
requested Discount Rate and Tranche Period; provided, however, that not more than five (5) Purchase
Notices may be delivered in any one calendar month and not more than one (1) unfunded Purchase
Notice may be outstanding at any one time. Following its receipt of a Purchase Notice, each
Funding Agent will determine whether the Conduits in its related Purchaser Group will participate
in such Incremental Purchase. If a Conduit declines to participate in a proposed Incremental
Purchase, the related Funding Agent shall promptly notify Seller and the Master Servicer of such
fact, and Seller may thereupon cancel the Purchase Notice as to all Purchaser Groups or, in the
absence of such a cancellation, the Incremental Purchase of the Purchaser Interest will be made by
the Committed Purchasers in the related Purchaser Group ratably in accordance with their respective
Pro Rata Shares. On the date of each Incremental Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable
conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, each Conduit or Committed Purchaser, as applicable,
shall deposit to an account specified by its Funding Agent, for transfer to the Facility Account,
in immediately available funds, no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time), an amount equal to (i) in
the case of a Conduit, its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the aggregate Purchase Price of the
Purchaser Interests or (ii) in the case of a Committed Purchaser, such Committed Purchaser’s Pro
Rata Share of its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser
Interests being purchased by the Committed Purchasers in such Purchaser Group.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the date hereof, Three Pillars Funding LLC shall pay to
Falcon Asset Securitization Company LLC, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
JPMorgan to Account Number [       ], Account Name: Falcon Asset Sec LLC, [                  ], an amount equal to $33,333,333.33, so that, after giving effect to such
payment and the addition of the Purchaser Group for which SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. acts as
Funding Agent, the funding by the Purchaser Groups of any Incremental Purchase to be made on the
date hereof and any reduction to the Aggregate Capital on the date hereof, each Purchaser Group
shall have funded its respective Percentage of the Aggregate Capital on the date hereof.

Section 1.3 Decreases. Seller shall provide the Funding Agents with prior written
notice in conformity with the Required Notice Period (a “Reduction Notice”) of any proposed
reduction of Aggregate Capital from Collections. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the
date (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Capital
shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), and (ii) the
amount of Aggregate Capital to be reduced (the “Aggregate Reduction”) which shall be
applied ratably to the Purchaser Interests of the Purchaser Groups in accordance with the amount of
Capital owing to each Purchaser Group (and within each Purchaser Group, ratably among the
Purchasers, in accordance with the amount of Capital owing to each Purchaser in such Purchaser
Group). Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time.

Section 1.4 Payment Requirements. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller
Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the
terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the day when due in immediately available
funds, and if not received before 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) shall be deemed to be received on the
next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to a Purchaser they shall be paid to the
applicable Funding Agent, for the account of such Purchaser, in accordance with the wire
instructions set forth on Schedule B hereto for such Funding Agent, until otherwise
notified by such Funding Agent. Upon notice to Seller, the Agent may debit the Facility Account
for all amounts due and payable hereunder. Except for computations of Yield or Default Fee based
on the Prime Rate, all computations of Yield, per annum fees calculated as part of any CP Costs,
per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letter shall be made on the basis of a
year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. All computations of Yield or Default Fee
based on the Prime Rate shall be computed for actual days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting
of 365 (or 366, as applicable) days. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not
a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 1.5 Term-Out Provisions.

(a) Extension of Term. The Seller may, at any time during the period which is no more
than ninety (90) days or less than sixty (60) days immediately preceding the Liquidity Termination
Date (as such date may have previously been extended pursuant to this Section 1.5), request
that the then applicable Liquidity Termination Date be extended for up to an additional 180 days.
Any such request shall be in writing and delivered to the Agent (which shall be promptly forwarded
by the Agent to each Funding Agent), and shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) no
Committed Purchaser shall have an obligation to extend the Liquidity Termination Date at any time,
and (ii) any such extension with respect to any Committed Purchaser shall be effective only upon
the written agreement of the Agent, the applicable Funding Agent, such Committed Purchaser, the
Seller and the Master Servicer. Each Funding Agent shall respond to any such request on behalf of
the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group no later than the fifteenth (15th) day
prior to the Liquidity Termination Date (the “Response Deadline”) and a failure by any
Funding Agent to respond by the Response Deadline shall be deemed to be a rejection of the
requested extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Liquidity Termination Date shall not occur
as a result of any Funding Agent’s failure to agree to any such extension (each Committed Purchaser
in such Funding Agent’s Purchaser Group being a “Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser”) if, on
or prior to such date (the “Scheduled Liquidity Termination Date”), either such
Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser is replaced by another Committed Purchaser which has a Commitment
equal to or greater than that of such Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser (the “Non-Renewing
Amount”), or (ii) the Seller requests Term-out Period Advances to be made by the Non-Renewing
Committed Purchaser in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.5(b) and (c) on
the Scheduled Liquidity Termination Date.

 

4

 

(b) Term-Out Period Advances. On the Scheduled Liquidity Termination Date, each
Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser shall, by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the Scheduled Liquidity
Termination Date following its receipt of written request therefor from the Seller and subject to
the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section
6.2, (i) establish such Committed Purchaser’s Term-out Period Account and (ii) make a
Term-out Period Advance by depositing, in same day funds to such Committed Purchaser’s Term-out
Period Account, an amount equal to such Committed Purchaser’s Commitment as of such date. Each
Committed Purchaser shall invest the amounts on deposit in such Committed Purchaser’s Term-out
Period Account, and the proceeds of such investments, in Eligible Investments (it being agreed that
the earnings on any such Eligible Investments shall be applied pursuant to Section 4.6 to
offset the Yield payable to the Committed Purchasers).

(c) Term-Out Period Account Funded Advances. No later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time),
on the Scheduled Liquidity Termination Date on which the Non-Renewing Committed Purchasers make the
initial deposit into the related Term-out Period Accounts in accordance with Section
1.5(b), the Agent shall withdraw from each Committed Purchaser’s Term-out Period Account an
amount equal to such Committed Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the related Purchaser Group’s
Percentage of the Aggregate Capital and cause such funds to be immediately applied to purchase such
Committed Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the Capital of the Conduits in such Non-Renewing Committed
Purchaser’s Purchaser Group in accordance with the Funding Agreement between such Committed
Purchaser and such Conduits. During the Term-out Period, all additional Incremental Purchases to
be made by any Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.2 shall be made by
such Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser by withdrawing funds from such Committed Purchaser’s Term-out
Period Account.

(d) Maturity. All Term-out Period Advances shall be due and payable in full by the
Seller on the Facility Termination Date.

(e) Use of Proceeds; Security Interest in Term-Out Period Account. The Seller hereby
agrees that it shall use the proceeds of the Term-out Period Advances solely to fund and maintain
the Term-out Period Account for the purpose of funding Incremental Purchases from time to time.
The Seller hereby grants to the applicable Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser, a security interest in
the Term-out Period Account, all funds from time to time credited to the Term-out Period Account,
all financial assets (including, without limitation, Eligible Investments) from time to time
acquired with any such funds or otherwise credited to the Term-out Period Account, all interest,
dividends, cash, instruments and other investment property from time to time received, receivable
or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such funds or such
financial assets, and all proceeds of, collateral for, and supporting obligations relating to any
and all of the foregoing. The grant of a security interest by the Seller to each such Non-Renewing
Committed Purchaser pursuant to this Section secures the payment of the Seller’s obligation to
repay the Term-out Period Advances, and to pay Yield thereon, pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.

Agreement, Seller shall immediately pay when due to the Agent or each Funding Agent, as applicable,
for the account of the relevant Purchasers, the Agent or Funding Sources on a full recourse basis,
as applicable: (i) such fees as are payable under the Fee Letter (which fees shall be sufficient
to pay all fees

owing
to the Purchasers), (ii) all CP Costs, (iii) all amounts payable as Yield, (iv) all amounts payable as Deemed Collections (which shall be immediately due and
payable by Seller and applied to reduce outstanding Aggregate Capital hereunder in accordance with
Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof), (v) all amounts required pursuant to Section
2.6, (vi) all amounts payable pursuant to Article X, if any, (vii) all Servicer costs
and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, in connection with servicing, administering and
collecting the Receivables, (viii) all Broken Funding Costs, and (ix) all Default Fees
(collectively, the “Obligations”). If any Person fails to pay any of the Obligations when
due, such Person agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Agreement or the Fee Letter shall require the
payment or permit the collection of any amounts hereunder in excess of the maximum permitted by
applicable law. If at any time Seller receives any Collections or is deemed to receive any
Collections, Seller shall immediately pay such Collections or Deemed Collections to the Master
Servicer for application in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and, at all times prior
to such payment, such Collections or Deemed Collections shall be held in trust by Seller for the
exclusive benefit of the Purchasers and the Agent.

Section 2.2 Collections Prior to Amortization. Prior to the Amortization Date, any
Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by the Master Servicer shall be set aside and held
in trust by the Master Servicer for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids, any
Aggregate Reduction or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section 2.2. If at any time
any Collections and/or Deemed Collections are received by the Master Servicer prior to the
Amortization Date and such Collections and/or Deemed Collections are not so set aside or held in
trust for the payment of Aggregate Unpaids or Aggregate Reductions, Seller hereby requests and the
Purchasers hereby agree to make, simultaneously with such receipt, but subject to the conditions
precedent set forth herein, including the conditions set forth in Section 6.2, a
reinvestment (each a “Reinvestment”) with that portion of the balance of each and every
Collection received by the Master Servicer that is part of any Purchaser Interest, such that after
giving effect to such Reinvestment, the amount of Capital of such Purchaser Interest immediately
after such receipt and corresponding Reinvestment shall be equal to the amount of Capital
immediately prior to such receipt.

Section 2.3 Collections Following Amortization. On the Amortization Date and on each
day thereafter, the Master Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the applicable
Purchasers in each Purchaser Group, the applicable Purchaser Group’s Percentage of all Collections
received on each such day and, to the extent of available funds of Seller, an additional amount for
the payment of any accrued and unpaid Obligations owed by Seller and not previously paid by Seller
in accordance with Section 2.1. On and after the Amortization Date, the Master Servicer
shall, at any time upon the request from time to time by (or pursuant to standing instructions
from) the Agent remit to each Funding Agent’s account the amounts set aside pursuant to the
preceding sentence for the account of such Funding Agent’s Purchaser Group, and such Funding Agent
shall apply such amounts to reduce the Capital of its Purchaser Group associated with each such
Purchaser Interest and any other Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Purchaser Group.

Section 2.4 Application of Collections. (i) Prior to the Amortization Date, on each
Settlement Date and (ii) on and after the Amortization Date, on each Settlement Date and on such
other additional dates as the Agent may request (which may be each Business Day), the
Master Servicer shall distribute the funds set aside or held in trust pursuant to Section
2.2 or 2.3 (as applicable) in the following order of priority:

 

6

 

(a) first, to the payment of the Master Servicer’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses
in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, including the Servicing
Fee, if Seller or one of its Affiliates is not then acting as the Master Servicer;

(b) second, to the reimbursement of the Agent’s costs of collection and enforcement of this
Agreement;

(c) third, ratably to each Funding Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers in the related
Purchaser Group, to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letter, CP Costs and
Yield then due and payable;

(d) fourth, (to the extent applicable) to each Funding Agent, for the benefit of the
Purchasers in the related Purchaser Group, to be applied to the reduction of the Aggregate Capital
then due and payable, and for the benefit of Non-Renewing Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser
Group, to be applied to the reduction of Term-out Period Advances then due and payable, ratably in
accordance with the respective Percentages;

(e) fifth, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations; provided, that to the
extent such Obligations relate to the payment of the Master Servicer’s costs and expenses, in
connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, including the Servicing
Fee, when Seller or one of its Affiliates is then acting as the Master Servicer, such costs and
expenses will not be paid until after the payment in full of all other Obligations; and

(f) sixth, after the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Seller.

Collections applied to the payment of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be distributed in accordance with
the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth above in this
Section 2.4, shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent, the Funding
Agents and the Purchasers in accordance with the amount of such Aggregate Unpaids owing to each of
them in respect of such priority unless otherwise specified. Each Funding Agent shall distribute
amounts received pursuant to this Section 2.4 to the Purchasers and Non-Renewing Committed
Purchasers, if any, in its Purchaser Group ratably according to the applicable amounts owed to such
Persons.

Section 2.5 Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be
considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such
payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise
be returned or refunded for any reason. Seller shall remain obligated for the amount of any
payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to each
applicable Funding Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such rescission,
return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus the Default Fee from the date of any such
rescission, return or refunding.

 

7

 

Section 2.6 Maximum Purchaser Interests. Seller shall ensure that the Purchaser
Interests of the Purchasers do not at any time exceed in the aggregate 100%. If the aggregate of
the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers exceeds 100%, Seller shall determine the amount that must
be applied to the reduction of Capital of the Purchaser Interests to eliminate such excess (the
“Mandatory Reduction Amount”), and Seller shall pay, from funds available to Seller under
Sections 2.2 and 2.3, to each of the Funding Agents, not later than the next
Business Day, its Purchaser Group’s respective Percentage of the Mandatory Reduction Amount for
distribution to the Purchasers in such Purchaser Group ratably in accordance with their respective
amounts of Capital outstanding.

Section 2.7 Clean-Up Call. In addition to Seller’s rights pursuant to Section
1.3, the Master Servicer shall have the right (after providing written notice to the Agent in
accordance with the Required Notice Period), at any time following the reduction of the Aggregate
Capital to a level that is less than 10.0% of the Purchase Limit on the date of this Agreement, to
purchase from the Purchasers all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Purchaser
Interests. The purchase price in respect thereof shall be an amount equal to the Aggregate Unpaids
through the date of such repurchase, payable in immediately available funds. Such repurchase shall
be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against any
Purchaser, any Funding Agent or the Agent.

Section 2.8 Payments During the Term-Out Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, all payments in respect of Capital hereunder during the Term-out Period to any
Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser shall be made to such Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser’s Term-out
Period Account.

ARTICLE III

CONDUIT FUNDING

Section 3.1 CP Costs. Seller shall pay CP Costs with respect to the Capital
associated with each Purchaser Interest funded by any Conduit for each day that any Capital in
respect of such Purchaser Interest is outstanding; provided, that, the Capital
associated with any Purchaser Interest, portion thereof or undivided interest therein which is
being funded by one or more Committed Purchasers in such Conduit’s Purchaser Group pursuant to a
Funding Agreement shall accrue Yield pursuant to Article IV. Capital funded by a Conduit
substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper will accrue CP Costs each day on a pro rata basis, based
upon the percentage share such Capital represents in relation to all assets held by such Conduit
and funded substantially with related Pooled Commercial Paper.

Section 3.2 CP Costs Payments. On each Settlement Date, Seller shall pay to each
Funding Agent (for the benefit each Conduit in its Purchaser Group) an aggregate amount equal to
all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of all Capital associated with each Purchaser Interest
of such Conduit owing to it for the immediately preceding Accrual Period in accordance with
Article II.

 

8

 

Section 3.3 Calculation of CP Costs. On or before the fifth (5th) Business
Day immediately preceding each Settlement Date, each Conduit (or the applicable Funding Agent on
behalf of such Conduit) shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs owing to it for the
applicable Accrual Period and shall notify Seller of such aggregate amount. Such aggregate
amount shall be calculated in respect of each Conduit using an estimate of the CP Costs, if
necessary, for the remaining days in such Accrual Period, provided, that such aggregate amount
shall be adjusted as follows: if the Funding Agent for such Conduit shall have used an estimate of
CP Costs with respect to the preceding Accrual Period, such Funding Agent shall compute the actual
aggregate CP Costs of such Conduit for such preceding Accrual Period and (i) if the actual
aggregate CP Costs of such Conduit so computed are greater than the estimated aggregate CP Costs
calculated for such preceding Accrual Period, the aggregate CP Costs for such Conduit calculated
pursuant to the preceding sentence for the current Accrual Period shall be increased by the amount
of such difference, and (ii) if the actual aggregate CP Costs of such Conduit so computed are less
than the estimated aggregate CP Costs for such preceding Accrual Period, the aggregate CP Costs for
such Conduit calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence for the current Accrual Period shall be
decreased by the amount of such difference or, on the date the Aggregate Unpaids are paid in full
by the Seller, to the extent the Aggregate Unpaids are not calculated taking into account the
amount of such difference, the amount of such difference shall be promptly paid to the Seller.

ARTICLE IV

COMMITTED PURCHASER FUNDING

Section 4.1 Committed Purchaser Funding. The Capital associated with each Purchaser
Interest funded by a Committed Purchaser shall accrue Yield for each day during each Tranche Period
at either the LIBO Rate or the Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Each
Term-out Period Advance shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the
LIBO Rate or the Base Rate in accordance with the terms hereof. Until Seller gives notice to the
Funding Agent of such Committed Purchaser of another Discount Rate in accordance with Section
4.4, the initial Discount Rate for any interest in the Purchaser Interest transferred to any
Committed Purchaser by a Conduit in its Purchaser Group pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof
shall be the Base Rate. If a Committed Purchaser acquires by assignment from a Conduit in its
Purchaser Group any interest in the Purchaser Interest pursuant to a Funding Agreement, each
interest in the Purchaser Interest so assigned shall each be deemed to have a new Tranche Period
commencing on the date of any such assignment.

Section 4.2 Yield Payments. On the Settlement Date for each Purchaser Interest of the
Committed Purchasers and each Term-out Advance of a Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser, Seller shall
pay to each Funding Agent (for the benefit of the Committed Purchasers and Non-Renewing Committed
Purchasers, if any, in its Purchaser Group) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid
Yield for the entire Tranche Period of each such portion of Capital and Term-out Period Advance in
accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3 Selection and Continuation of Tranche Periods.

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the applicable Funding Agent, Seller shall from
time to time request Tranche Periods for the Capital funded by the Committed Purchasers in such
Funding Agent’s Purchaser Group and the Term-out Period Advances of the Non-Renewing Committed
Purchasers in such Funding Agent’s Purchaser Group; provided, that if at any time the Committed
Purchasers shall have a Purchaser Interest or a Term-out Period
Advance, Seller shall always request Tranche Periods such that at least one Tranche Period
shall end on the date specified in clause (A) of the definition of Settlement Date.

 

9

 

(b) Seller or the applicable Funding Agent, upon notice to and consent by the other received
at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of a Tranche Period (the “Terminating
Tranche”) for any Purchaser Interest or Term-out Period Advance, may, effective on the last day
of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Purchaser Interest or Term-out Period Advance
funded by the Committed Purchasers and Non-Renewing Committed Purchasers in the same Purchaser
Group into multiple Purchaser Interests or Term-out Period Advances, (ii) combine any such
Purchaser Interest or Term-out Period Advance with one or more other Purchaser Interests or
Term-out Period Advances of a Committed Purchaser or Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser in the same
Purchaser Group that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche
or (iii) combine any such Purchaser Interest or Term-out Period Advance with one or more other
Purchaser Interests or Term-out Period Advances which either have a Terminating Tranche ending on
such day or are newly created on such day; provided, that in no event may a Purchaser Interest of
any Conduit be combined with a Purchaser Interest of any Committed Purchaser.

Section 4.4 Committed Purchaser Discount Rates. Seller may select the LIBO Rate or
the Base Rate for each Purchaser Interest of the Committed Purchaser in each Purchaser Group and
each Term-out Period Advance. Seller shall by 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time): (i) at least three (3)
Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO
Rate being requested as a new Discount Rate and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the
expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Base Rate is being requested as a
new Discount Rate, give the related Funding Agent irrevocable notice of the new Discount Rate
requested for the Purchaser Interest or the Term-out Period Advance associated with such
Terminating Tranche. Until Seller gives notice to the related Funding Agent of another Discount
Rate, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred to the Committed Purchasers
in its Purchaser Group pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof shall be the Base Rate.

Section 4.5 Suspension of the LIBO Rate.

(a) If any Committed Purchaser notifies the related Funding Agent that it has determined that
funding its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Committed Purchasers or its Term-out
Period Advances at a LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of
any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i)
deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Purchaser Interests or Term-out
Period Advances at the LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) the LIBO Rate does not accurately
reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Purchaser Interest or Term-out Period Advance at the
LIBO Rate, then such Funding Agent shall suspend the availability of the LIBO Rate and require
Seller to select the Base Rate for any Purchaser Interest of the Committed Purchasers in its
Purchaser Group or Term-out Period Advance accruing Yield at the LIBO Rate.

 

10

 

(b) If less than all of the Committed Purchasers give a notice to their related Funding Agents
pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Committed Purchaser which gave such a notice
shall be obliged, at the request of the Seller or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and
obligations hereunder to (i) another Committed Purchaser in its Purchaser Group or (ii) another
Committed Purchaser nominated by the Seller or the Agent that is acceptable to the related Funding
Agent and Conduits and willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination
Date in the place of such notifying Committed Purchaser; provided, that (i) the notifying Committed
Purchaser receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such
notifying Committed Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the Capital, principal amount of Term-out Period
Advances and Yield owing to all of the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group and all accruing
but unpaid fees and other costs and expenses payable in respect of its Pro Rata Share of the
Purchaser Interests of the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group or its Term-out Period
Advances, and (ii) the replacement Committed Purchaser otherwise satisfies the requirements of
Section 12.1(b).

Section 4.6 Term-Out Period Accounts. Earnings on any Eligible Investment in a
Committed Purchaser’s Term-out Period Account shall be applied to offset the Yield payable to such
Committed Purchaser any date upon which Yield is payable to such Committed Purchaser hereunder.

corporate names, trade names or assumed names other than the name in which it has executed this
Agreement.

within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute.

(q) Compliance with Law. Such Seller Party has complied in all respects with all
applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to
which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does
not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including, without limitation,
laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit
reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of
such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation, except where such contravention
or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(r) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. Such Seller Party has complied in
all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the
related Contract, and has not made any change to such Credit and Collection Policy, except such
material change as to which the Agent has been notified in accordance with Section

(s) Payments to Originators. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Seller
under the Receivables Sale Agreement, Seller has given reasonably equivalent value to the
applicable Originator in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of
an antecedent debt. No transfer by any Originator of any Receivable under the Receivables Sale
Agreement is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C.
§§ 101 et seq.), as amended.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each Receivable is
effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor
to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest
thereon, enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement
may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating
to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of
whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

14

 

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Net Receivables Balance as
an Eligible Receivable on the date of its purchase under the Receivables Sale Agreement was an
Eligible Receivable on such purchase date.

(v) Net Receivables Balance. Seller has determined that, immediately after giving
effect to each purchase hereunder, the Net Receivables Balance is at least equal to the sum of (i)
the Aggregate Capital, plus (ii) the Aggregate Reserves.

(w) Accounting. The manner in which such Seller Party accounts for the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivables Sale Agreement does not jeopardize the analysis
of the transactions described in the Receivables Sale Agreement as true sales, as set forth in the
opinion to be delivered on behalf of the Originators as described on Schedule C hereto.
Such Seller Party treats the transactions contemplated by the Receivables Sale Agreement as sales
and/or capital contributions, for all purposes, including, without limitation, accounting purposes,
notwithstanding the fact that the consolidated financial statements of Ralcorp and the Seller are
prepared in accordance with GAAP and, as a result of the consolidation required by GAAP, the
transfers shall be reflected as a financing in the consolidated financial statements of Ralcorp and
its Subsidiaries, and (i) such Seller Party has made appropriate notations in any such consolidated
financial statements (or in the accompanying notes) to indicate that the Seller is a separate legal
entity from Ralcorp and to indicate that the assets and credit of the Seller are not available to
satisfy the debts and obligations of Ralcorp and (ii) the assets of Seller are listed separately
from the assets of the Seller or Ralcorp on any balance sheet of Ralcorp prepared on a standalone
basis.

(x) No Amortization Event. No event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes
an Amortization Event or a Potential Amortization Event.

(y) Solvency. After giving effect to the sale or contribution of Receivables and the
Incremental Purchase and Reinvestments, as applicable, to be made on such date and to the
application of the proceeds therefrom, Seller (i) is not “insolvent” (as such term is defined in
the Federal Bankruptcy Code), (ii) is able to pay its debts as they become due and (iii) does not
have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it is engaged or for any business or
transaction in which it reasonably expects to engage.

(z) Subsidiaries; Business. In the case of the Seller, (i) it has no Subsidiaries,
(ii) since its formation, it has conducted no business other than entering into and performing its
obligations under (A) the Existing Agreement and other activities incidental thereto or in
connection therewith and (B) the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and such other
activities incidental to the foregoing.

Section 5.2 Committed Purchaser Representations and Warranties. Each Committed
Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Funding Agent and Conduits in its Purchaser Group
and the Agent that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Committed Purchaser is a corporation or a banking
association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, and has all corporate power to perform its
obligations hereunder.

 

15

 

(b) No Conflict. The execution and delivery by such Committed Purchaser of this
Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder are within its corporate powers, have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, do not contravene or violate (i) its
certificate or articles of incorporation or association or by-laws, (ii) any law, rule or
regulation applicable to it, (iii) any restrictions under any agreement, contract or instrument to
which it is a party or any of its property is bound, or (iv) any order, writ, judgment, award,
injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or its property, and do not result in the creation
or imposition of any Adverse Claim on its assets. This Agreement has been duly authorized,

of the officers or employees of

 

19

 

Seller
or the Master Servicer having knowledge of such matters (each, a “Review”); provided, however, that,
so long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Seller Parties shall only be
responsible for the costs and expenses of one such Review, which shall include any two Originators,
in any one calendar year unless the first such Review in such calendar year is reasonably deemed
unsatisfactory by the Agent.

(e) Keeping and Marking of Records and Books.

(i) The Master Servicer will (and will cause each Originator to) maintain and implement
administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an ability to
recreate records evidencing Receivables 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 immediate identification of each new Receivable
and all Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable). The Master Servicer
will (and will cause each Originator to) give the Agent and the Funding Agents notice of any
material change in the administrative and operating procedures referred to in the previous

to the Receivables, and (ii) comply in all respects with the Credit and Collection Policy in regard
to each Receivable and the related Contract.

(g) Performance and Enforcement of Receivables Sale Agreement and Performance
Undertaking. Seller will, and will require each Originator to, perform each of its respective
obligations and undertakings under and pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement, will purchase
Receivables thereunder in strict compliance with the terms thereof and will vigorously enforce the
rights and remedies accorded to Seller under the Receivables Sale Agreement. Seller will take all
actions to perfect and enforce its rights and interests (and the rights and interests of the
Funding Agents, on behalf of the Purchasers, as Seller’s assignees) under the Receivables Sale
Agreement and the Performance Undertaking as the Agent may from time to time reasonably request,
including, without limitation, making claims to which it may be entitled under any indemnity,
reimbursement or similar provision contained in the Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance
Undertaking.

 

20

 

(h) Ownership. Seller will (or will cause each Originator to) take all necessary
action to (i) vest legal and equitable title to the Receivables, the Related Security and the
Collections purchased under the Receivables Sale Agreement irrevocably in Seller, free and clear of
any Adverse Claims other than Adverse Claims in favor of the Agent and the Purchasers (including,
without limitation, the filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments or
documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions, with
or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without Seller’ signature, to perfect
Seller’s interest in such Receivables, Related Security and Collections and such other action to
perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of Seller therein as the Agent or any Funding
Agent may reasonably request), and (ii) establish and maintain, in favor of the Agent, for the
benefit of the Purchasers, a valid and perfected first priority undivided percentage ownership
interest (and/or a valid and perfected first priority security interest) in all Receivables,
Related Security and Collections to the full extent contemplated herein, free and clear of any
Adverse Claims other than Adverse Claims in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers
(including, without limitation, the filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments
or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law) of all appropriate jurisdictions to
perfect the Agent’s (for the benefit of the Purchasers) interest in such Receivables, Related
Security and Collections and such other action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the
interest of the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers as the Agent may reasonably request).

(i) Purchasers’ Reliance. Seller acknowledges that the Purchasers are entering into
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in reliance upon Seller’s identity as a legal
entity that is separate from each of the Originators. Therefore, from and after the date of
execution and delivery of this Agreement, Seller shall take all reasonable steps, including,
without limitation, all steps that the Agent, any Funding Agent or any Purchaser may from time to
time reasonably request, to maintain Seller’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it
manifest to third parties that Seller is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those
of each Originator and any Affiliates thereof and not just a division of an Originator or any such
Affiliate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to the other covenants
set forth herein, Seller will:

(A) conduct its own business in its own name and require that all full-time
employees of Seller, if any, identify themselves as such and not as employees of any
Originator (including, without limitation, by means of providing appropriate
employees with business or identification cards identifying such employees as
Seller’s employees);

(B) compensate all employees, consultants and agents directly, from Seller’s
own funds, for services provided to Seller by such employees, consultants and agents
and, to the extent any employee, consultant or agent of Seller is also an employee,
consultant or agent of an Originator or any Affiliate thereof, allocate the
compensation of such employee, consultant or agent between Seller and such
Originator or such Affiliate, as applicable, on a basis that reflects the services
rendered to Seller and such Originator or such Affiliate, as applicable;

 

21

 

(C) clearly identify its offices (by signage or otherwise) as its offices and,
if such office is located in the offices of an Originator, Seller shall lease such
office at a fair market rent;

(D) have a separate telephone number, which will be answered only in its name
and separate stationery, invoices and checks in its own name;

(E) conduct all transactions with each Originator and the Master Servicer
(including, without limitation, any delegation of its obligations hereunder as
Master Servicer) strictly on an arm’s-length basis, allocate all overhead expenses
(including, without limitation, telephone and other utility charges) for items
shared between Seller and such Originator on the basis of actual use to the extent
practicable and, to the extent such allocation is not practicable, on a basis
reasonably related to actual use;

(F) at all times have a Board of Directors consisting of at least three
members, at least one member of which is an Independent Director;

(G) observe all corporate formalities as a distinct entity, and ensure that all
corporate actions relating to (A) the selection, maintenance or replacement of the
Independent Director, (B) the dissolution or liquidation of Seller or (C) the
initiation of, participation in, acquiescence in or consent to any bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding involving Seller, are duly
authorized by unanimous vote of its Board of Directors (including the Independent
Director);

(H) maintain Seller’s books and records separate from those of each Originator
and any Affiliate thereof and otherwise readily identifiable as its own assets
rather than assets of an Originator and any Affiliate thereof;

(I) prepare its financial statements separately from those of each Originator
and insure that any consolidated financial statements of any Originator or any
Affiliate thereof that include Seller and that are filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission or any other governmental agency have notes clearly stating that
Seller is a separate corporate entity and that its assets will be available first
and foremost to satisfy the claims of the creditors of Seller;

(J) except as herein specifically otherwise provided, maintain the funds or
other assets of Seller separate from, and not commingled with, those of any
Originator or any Affiliate thereof and only maintain bank accounts or other
depository accounts to which Seller alone is the account party, into which Seller
alone makes deposits and from which Seller alone (or the Agent hereunder) has the
power to make withdrawals;

(K) pay all of Seller’s operating expenses from Seller’s own assets (except for
certain payments by an Originator or other Persons pursuant to allocation
arrangements that comply with the requirements of this Section 7.1(i));

 

22

 

(L) operate its business and activities such that: it does not engage in any
business or activity of any kind, or enter into any transaction or indenture,
mortgage, instrument, agreement, contract, lease or other undertaking, other than
the transactions contemplated and authorized by this Agreement and the Receivables
Sale Agreement; and does not create, incur, guarantee, assume or suffer to exist any
indebtedness or other liabilities, whether direct or contingent, other than (1) as a
result of the endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or
similar transactions in the ordinary course of business, (2) the incurrence of
obligations under this Agreement, (3) the incurrence of obligations, as expressly
contemplated in the Receivables Sale Agreement, to make payment to the applicable
Originator thereunder for the purchase of Receivables from such Originator under the
Receivables Sale Agreement, and (4) the incurrence of operating expenses in the
ordinary course of business of the type otherwise contemplated by this Agreement;

(M) maintain its corporate charter in conformity with this Agreement, such that
(1) it does not amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify its Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws in any respect that would impair its ability to comply with
the terms or provisions of any of the Transaction Documents, including, without
limitation, Section 7.1(i) of this Agreement; and (2) its corporate charter,
at all times that this Agreement is in effect, (x) contains a definition of
“Independent Director” identical to the definition of such term contained herein and
(y) provides for not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the secured
creditors of the Seller of the replacement or appointment of any director that is to
serve as an Independent Director for purposes of this Agreement and the condition
precedent to giving effect to such replacement or appointment that the Seller
certify that the designated Person satisfied the criteria set forth in the
definition herein of “Independent Director” and such creditors’ written
acknowledgement that in their reasonable judgment the designated Person satisfies
the criteria set forth in the definition herein of “Independent Director;”

(N) maintain the effectiveness of, and continue to perform under the
Receivables Sale Agreement and the Performance Undertaking, such that it does not
amend, restate, supplement, cancel, terminate or otherwise modify the Receivables
Sale Agreement or the Performance Undertaking, or give any consent, waiver,
directive or approval thereunder or waive any default, action, omission or breach
under the Receivables Sale Agreement or the Performance Undertaking or otherwise
grant any indulgence thereunder, without (in each case) the prior written consent of
the Agent;

(O) maintain its corporate separateness such that it does not merge or
consolidate with or into, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of
(whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions, and except as otherwise
contemplated herein) all or substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or
hereafter acquired) to, or acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, any
Person, nor at any time create, have, acquire, maintain or hold any interest in any
Subsidiary.

 

23

 

(P) maintain at all times the Required Capital Amount (as defined in the
Receivables Sale Agreement) and refrain from making any dividend, distribution,
redemption of capital stock or payment of any subordinated indebtedness which would
cause the Required Capital Amount to cease to be so maintained; and

(Q) take such other actions as are necessary on its part to ensure that the
facts and assumptions set forth in the opinion issued by Bryan Cave LLP, as counsel
for Seller, in connection with the closing or initial Incremental Purchase under
this Agreement and relating to substantive consolidation issues, and in the
certificates accompanying such opinion, remain true and correct in all material
respects at all times.

(j) Collections. Such Seller Party will cause (1) all proceeds from all Lock-Boxes to
be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a Collection Account and (2) except as set forth
herein, each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account
Agreement that is in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as soon as practicable
after the date hereof but not later than January 4, 2011 and at all times thereafter, such Seller
Party will cause Lock-Box #24625 and Account #811107879 maintained by Post Foods, LLC at JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. to be subject to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect.
In the event any payments relating to Receivables are remitted directly to Seller or any Affiliate
of Seller, Seller will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a
Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following
receipt thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, Seller will itself hold or, if
applicable, will cause such payments to be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Agent,
the Funding Agents and the Purchasers. Seller will maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and
control (subject to the terms of this Agreement) of each Lock-Box and Collection Account and shall
not grant the right to take dominion and control of any Lock-Box or Collection Account at a future
time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person, except to the Agent as contemplated by
this Agreement.

(k) Taxes. Such Seller Party will file all tax returns and reports required by law to
be filed by it and will promptly pay all taxes and governmental charges at any time owing, except
any such taxes which are not yet delinquent or are being diligently contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP shall have been set
aside on its books. Seller will pay when due any taxes payable in connection with the Receivables,
exclusive of taxes on or measured by income or gross receipts of the Agent, any Funding Agent or
any Purchaser.

(l) Insurance. Seller will maintain in effect, or cause to be maintained in effect,
at Seller’s own expense, such casualty and liability insurance as Seller shall deem appropriate in
its good faith business judgment. The Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, shall be named as
an additional insured with respect to all such liability insurance maintained by Seller. Seller
will pay or cause to be paid, the premiums therefor and deliver to the Agent evidence satisfactory
to the Agent and the Funding Agents of such insurance coverage. Copies of each policy shall be
furnished to the Agent, any Funding Agent and any Purchaser in certificated form upon the Agent’s,
such Funding Agent’s or such Purchaser’s request. The
foregoing requirements shall not be construed to negate, reduce or modify, and are in addition
to, Seller’s obligations hereunder.

 

24

 

(m) Payment to Applicable Originator. With respect to any Receivable purchased by
Seller from an Originator, such sale shall be effected under, and in strict compliance with the
terms of, the Receivables Sale Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms relating to the
amount and timing of payments to be made to such Originator in respect of the purchase price for
such Receivable.

Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly paid in full and this Agreement terminates in accordance
with its terms, each Seller Party hereby covenants, as to itself, that:

and/or 9-507 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions), become a “new debtor” (as defined in
Section 9-102(a)(56) of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) with respect to a currently
effective security agreement previously entered into by any other Person, change its “location”
(within the meaning of Section 9-307 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions) or relocate its
chief executive office, principal place of business or any office where Records are kept unless it
shall have: (i) given the Agent at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii)
delivered to the Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents reasonably
requested by the Agent or any Funding Agent in connection with such change, event or relocation.

(b) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Except as may be required by the
Agent pursuant to Section 8.2(b), such Seller Party will not add or terminate any bank as a
Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made
to any Lock-Box or Collection Account, unless the Agent shall have received, at least ten (10) days
before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or
change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Bank or a Collection Account or
Lock-Box, an executed Collection Account Agreement with respect to the new Collection Account or
Lock-Box; provided, however, that the Master Servicer may make changes in instructions to Obligors
regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to another
existing Collection Account.

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Such Seller Party
will not, and will not permit any Originator to, make any change to the Credit and Collection
Policy that could adversely affect the collectibility of the Receivables or decrease the credit
quality of any newly created Receivables. Except as provided in Section 8.2(d), the Master
Servicer will not, and will not permit any Originator to, extend, amend or otherwise modify the
terms of any Receivable or any Contract related thereto other than in accordance with the Credit
and Collection Policy.

 

25

 

(d) Sales, Liens. Seller will not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or
otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse
Claim upon (including, without limitation, the filing of any financing statement) or with
respect to, any Receivable, Related Security or Collections, upon or with respect to any
Term-out Period Advance Account or any amounts from time to time on deposit therein or credited
thereto, or upon or with respect to any Contract under which any Receivable arises, or any Lock-Box
or Collection Account, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in
each case, the creation of the interests therein in favor of the Agent and the Purchasers provided
for herein), and Seller will defend the right, title and interest of the Agent and the Purchasers
in, to and under any of the foregoing property, against all claims of third parties claiming
through or under Seller or any Originator.

(e) Net Receivables Balance. At no time prior to the Amortization Date shall Seller
permit the Net Receivables Balance to be less than an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Aggregate
Capital plus (ii) the Aggregate Reserves.

(f) Termination Date Determination. Seller will not designate the “Termination Date”
(as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement), or send any written notice to any Originator in
respect thereof, without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Funding Agents, except with
respect to the occurrence of such “Termination Date” (as defined in the Receivables Sale Agreement)
arising pursuant to Section 5.1(d) of the Receivables Sale Agreement.

(g) Restricted Junior Payments. From and after the occurrence of any Amortization
Event or Potential Amortization Event, Seller will not make any Restricted Junior Payment if, after
giving effect thereto, Seller would fail to meet its obligations set forth in Section

ARTICLE VIII

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

Section 8.1 Designation of Master Servicer.

(a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such
Person (the “Master Servicer”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this
Section 8.1. Ralcorp is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and
obligations of, the Master Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At any time following
the occurrence and during the continuation of an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization
Event, the Agent may, and shall at the direction of the Required Funding Agents, designate as
Master Servicer any Person to succeed Ralcorp or any successor Master Servicer.

(b) Ralcorp may delegate, and Ralcorp hereby advises the Purchasers and the Agent that it has
delegated, to the other Originators, as sub-servicers of the Master Servicer (the Originators in
such capacity, “Permitted Sub-Servicers”), certain of its duties and responsibilities as
Master Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such Originator. Without the
prior written consent of the Agent and the Required Funding Agents, Ralcorp shall not be permitted
to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Master Servicer to any Person other than (i)
the other Originators, and (ii) with respect to certain Charged-Off Receivables, outside collection
agencies in accordance with its customary practices. No Permitted Sub-Servicer shall be permitted
to

 

26

 

further
delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Master Servicer delegated to it by Ralcorp. If at any time following
the occurrence of an Amortization Event the Agent shall, in accordance with the foregoing clause
(a), designate as Master Servicer any Person other than Ralcorp, all duties and responsibilities
theretofore delegated by Ralcorp to the Permitted Sub-Servicers may, at the discretion of the Agent
(with the consent of the Required Funding Agents), be terminated forthwith on notice given by the
Agent to Ralcorp and to Seller.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) Ralcorp shall be and remain primarily
liable to the Agent, the Funding Agents and the Purchasers for the full and prompt performance of
all duties and responsibilities of the Master Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Agent, the Funding
Agents and the Purchasers shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Ralcorp in matters relating to
the discharge by the Master Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. None of the
Agent, the Funding Agents or the Purchasers shall be required to give notice, demand or other
communication to any Person other than the Master Servicer in order for communication to the Master
Servicer and its Permitted Sub-Servicers or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished.
Ralcorp, at all times that it is the Master Servicer, shall be responsible for providing the
Permitted Sub-Servicers or other delegates of the Master Servicer with any notice given to the
Master Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Duties of Master Servicer.

(a) The Master 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 with applicable laws,
rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and
Collection Policy.

(b) The Master Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a
Lock-Box or Collection Account. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.1(j) of this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause each Lock-Box and Collection Account to be subject at
all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect. In the case of any
remittances received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the
satisfaction of the Master Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the
Receivables or the Related Security, the Master Servicer shall promptly remit such items to the
Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances. From and after the date the Agent
delivers to any Collection Bank a Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, the Agent may,
and shall upon the direction of the Required Funding Agents, request that the Master Servicer, and
the Master Servicer thereupon promptly shall, instruct all Obligors with respect to the
Receivables, to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the Agent and,
at all times thereafter, Seller and the Master Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and
shall not permit any other Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any
cash or payment item other than Collections.

(c) The Master Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures
described herein and in Article II. The Master Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the
account of Seller and the Purchasers their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with
Article II. The Master Servicer shall, upon the request of the Agent or any Funding Agent,

 

27

 

segregate,
in a manner acceptable to the Agent and the Funding Agents, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from
the general funds of the Master Servicer or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance
with Article II. If the Master Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the
preceding sentence, the Master Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the
Agent (with the consent of the Required Funding Agents) such allocable share of Collections of
Receivables set aside for the Purchasers on the first Business Day following receipt by the Master
Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(d) The Master Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the
maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Master
Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such
extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or
Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent, the Funding Agents or the Purchasers under
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent shall have
the absolute and unlimited right (with the consent of the Required Funding Agents) to direct the
Master Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to
foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) The Master Servicer shall hold in trust for Seller and the Purchasers all Records that (i)
evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are
otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon
demand of the Agent, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records, at a place selected
by the Agent. The Master Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn
over to Seller any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness
not constituting Receivables. The Master Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of any
Purchaser, furnish to the Purchasers (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts
set aside for the Purchasers pursuant to Article II.

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to any Originator or
Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or
law and unless otherwise instructed by the Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of
such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and
payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such
Obligor.

Section 8.3 Collection Notices. The Agent is authorized at any time after the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Amortization Event (with the consent of the Required
Funding Agents), to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. Seller
hereby transfers to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers, effective when the Agent delivers
such notice, the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-Box and the Collection Accounts. In
case any authorized signatory of Seller whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement
shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall
nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. Seller hereby authorizes the
Agent, and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled after the occurrence of an Amortization Event
(with the consent of the Required Funding Agents) to (i) endorse Seller’s name on checks and other
instruments representing Collections, (ii) enforce the Receivables, the
related Contracts and the Related Security and (iii) take such action as shall be necessary or
desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables
to come into the possession of the Agent rather than Seller.

 

28

 

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Seller. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent, the Funding Agent and the Purchasers of their rights
hereunder shall not release the Master Servicer, any Originator or Seller from any of their duties
or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Purchasers
shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor
shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Seller.

Section 8.5 Reports. The Master Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent and
the Funding Agents (i) on the 24th day of each month or if any such date is not a Business Day, on
the next succeeding Business Day thereafter (each such date, a “Monthly Reporting Date”)) and at
such times as the Agent shall request, a Monthly Report and (ii) at such times as the Agent or any
Funding Agent shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such
Receivables.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fees. In consideration of Ralcorp’s agreement to act as Master
Servicer hereunder, the Purchasers hereby agree that, so long as Ralcorp shall continue to perform
as Master Servicer hereunder, Seller shall pay over to Ralcorp, a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on the
first calendar day of each month, in arrears for the immediately preceding month, equal to 0.325%
of aggregate new Receivables (i.e., gross sales) during such period, as compensation for its
servicing activities.

Seller to pay any Indebtedness when due in an aggregate principal amount of $10,750 or more; or the

ARTICLE X

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 10.1 Indemnities by The Seller Parties. Without limiting any other rights
that the Agent or any Purchaser may have hereunder or under applicable law, (A) Seller hereby
agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) the Agent, each Funding Agent and each Purchaser and
their respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees (each an “Indemnified Party”)
from and against any and all damages (excluding consequential and special damages), losses, claims,
taxes, liabilities, costs, expenses and for all other amounts payable, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees (which attorneys may be employees of the Agent, such Funding Agent or such
Purchaser) and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified
Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of this
Agreement or the acquisition, either directly or indirectly, by a Purchaser of an interest in the
Receivables, and (B) the Master Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each
Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts awarded against or reasonably incurred by any of them
arising out of the Master Servicer’s activities as Master Servicer hereunder, excluding, however,
in all of the foregoing instances under the preceding clauses (A) and (B):

(a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification;

(b) Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses in respect of
Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack
of creditworthiness of the related Obligor; or

(c) taxes imposed by the jurisdiction in which such Indemnified Party’s
principal executive office is located, on or measured by the overall net income of
such Indemnified Party to the extent that the computation of such taxes is
consistent with the characterization for income tax purposes of the acquisition by
the Purchasers of Purchaser Interests as a loan or loans by the Purchasers to Seller
secured by the Receivables, the Related Security, the Collection Accounts and the
Collections;

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of any Seller
Party or limit the recourse of the Purchasers to any Seller Party for amounts otherwise
specifically provided to be paid by such Seller Party under the terms of this Agreement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, Seller shall indemnify the Agent, the
Funding Agents and the Purchasers for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation,
losses in respect of uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would
constitute recourse to Seller or the Master Servicer) relating to or resulting from:

 

32

 

(i) any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party or any Originator (or any
officers of any such Person) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other
Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person
pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false or incorrect when made or deemed
made;

(ii) the failure by Seller, the Master Servicer or any Originator to comply with any
applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to any Receivable or Contract related
thereto, or the nonconformity of any Receivable or Contract included therein with any such
applicable law, rule or regulation or any failure of any Originator to keep or perform any
of its obligations, express or implied, with respect to any Contract;

(iii) any failure of Seller, the Master Servicer or any Originator to perform its
duties, covenants or other obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document;

(iv) any products liability, personal injury or damage suit, or other similar claim
arising out of or in connection with merchandise, insurance or services that are the subject
of any Contract or any Receivable;

(v) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the
Obligor) of the 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 merchandise or service related to such
Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such merchandise or services;

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

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use
of the proceeds of an Incremental Purchase or a Reinvestment, the ownership of the Purchaser
Interests or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to Seller, the
Master Servicer or any Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a
result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(viii) any inability to litigate any claim against any Obligor in respect of any
Receivable as a result of such Obligor being immune from civil and commercial law and suit
on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from any legal action, suit or proceeding;

(ix) any Amortization Event described in Section 9.1(d);

 

33

 

(x) any failure of Seller to acquire and maintain legal and equitable title to, and
ownership of, any Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto
from the applicable Originator, free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other than as created
hereunder); or any failure of Seller to give reasonably equivalent value to such Originator
under the Receivables Sale Agreement in consideration of the transfer by such Originator of
any Receivable, or any attempt by any Person to void such transfer under statutory
provisions or common law or equitable action;

(xi) any failure to vest and maintain vested in the Agent for the benefit of the
Purchasers, or to transfer to the Agent for the benefit of the Purchasers, legal and
equitable title to, and ownership of, a first priority perfected undivided percentage
ownership interest (to the extent of the Purchaser Interests contemplated hereunder) or
security interest in the Receivables, the Related Security and the Collections, free and
clear of any Adverse Claim (except as created by the Transaction Documents);

(xii) the failure to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other
similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other
applicable laws with respect to any Receivable, the Related Security and Collections with
respect thereto, and the proceeds of any thereof, whether at the time of any Incremental
Purchase or Reinvestment or at any subsequent time;

(xiii) any action or omission by any Seller Party which reduces or impairs the rights
of the Agent, the Funding Agents or the Purchasers with respect to any Receivable or the
value of any such Receivable;

(xiv) any attempt by any Person to void any Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment
hereunder under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action; and

(xv) the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Net Receivables
Balance as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable at the time so included.

Section 10.2 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) If any Regulatory Change (i) subjects any Purchaser or any Funding Source to any charge or
withholding on or with respect to any Funding Agreement or this Agreement or a Purchaser’s or
Funding Source’s obligations under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or on or with respect to
the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Purchaser or any Funding
Source of any amounts payable under any Funding Agreement or this Agreement (except for changes in
the rate of tax on the overall net income of a Purchaser or Funding Source or taxes excluded by
Section 10.1) or (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, fee,
tax, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or liabilities of a Funding Source or a Purchaser, or credit extended by a
Funding Source or a Purchaser pursuant to a Funding Agreement or this Agreement or (iii) imposes
any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to a Funding

 

34

 

Source or a Purchaser
of performing its obligations under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or to reduce the rate of return on a Funding Source’s or
Purchaser’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Funding Agreement or this
Agreement, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Funding Source or a
Purchaser under a Funding Agreement or this Agreement, or to require any payment calculated by
reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by
the Administrative Agent, Seller shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
relevant Funding Source or Purchaser, such amounts charged to such Funding Source or Purchaser or
such amounts to otherwise compensate such Funding Source or such Purchaser for such increased cost
or such reduction. The term “Regulatory Change” shall mean (i) the adoption after the date
hereof of any applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation
regarding capital adequacy) or any change therein after the date hereof, (ii) any change after the
date hereof in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central
bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
central bank or comparable agency, or (iii) the compliance, whether commenced prior to or after the
date hereof, by any Liquidity Provider or Lender with either (x) the requirements of the final rule
titled “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines; Capital Adequacy Guidelines; Capital Maintenance: Regulatory
Capital; Impact of Modifications to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; Consolidation of
Asset-Backed Commercial Paper Programs; and Other Related Issues”, adopted by the United States
bank regulatory agencies on December 15, 2009 (the “FAS 166/167 Capital Guidelines”), or
any existing or future guidance, interpretations or directives from the U.S. bank regulatory
agencies relating to the FAS 166/167 Capital Guidelines (whether or not having the force of law),
or any rules or regulations promulgated in connection therewith by any U.S. bank regulatory agency
or (y) the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any
regulations, rules, guidelines or directives issued or promulgated thereunder or in connection
therewith.

(b) A certificate of the applicable Purchaser or Funding Source setting forth the amount or
amounts necessary to compensate such Purchaser or Funding Source pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
Section 10.2 shall be delivered to the Seller and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.

(c) If any Purchaser or any Funding Source has or anticipates having any claim for
compensation from the Seller pursuant to clause (iii) of the definition of Regulatory Change
appearing in paragraph (a) of this Section 10.2, and such Purchaser or Funding Source
believes that having the facility publicly rated by one credit rating agency would reduce the
amount of such compensation by an amount deemed by such Purchaser or Funding Source to be material,
such Purchaser or Funding Source shall provide written notice to the Seller and the Servicer (a
“Ratings Request”) that such Purchaser or Funding Source intends to request a public rating
of the facility from one credit rating agency selected by such Purchaser or Funding Source and
reasonably acceptable to the Seller, of at least A (the “Required Rating”). The Seller and
the Servicer agree that they shall cooperate with such Purchaser’s or Funding Source’s efforts to
obtain the Required Rating, and shall provide the applicable credit rating agency (either directly
or through distribution to the Administrative Agent, Purchaser or Funding Source), any information
requested by such credit rating agency for purposes of providing and monitoring the Required
Rating. The Purchasers shall pay the initial fees payable to the credit rating agency for

 

35

 

providing
the rating and all ongoing fees payable to the credit rating agency for their continued monitoring of the rating and all legal fees of counsel to the Agent or the Purchasers in
connection with obtaining or maintaining the rating. Nothing in this Section 10.2(c) shall
preclude any Purchaser or Funding Source from demanding compensation from the Seller pursuant to
Section 10.2(a) hereof at any time and without regard to whether the Required Rating shall
have been obtained, or shall require any Purchaser or Funding Source to obtain any rating on the
facility prior to demanding any such compensation from the Seller.

Section 10.3 Other Costs and Expenses. Subject to any limitations which may be agreed
between Seller, the Funding Agents and the Agent in writing, Seller shall pay to the Agent and each
Funding Agent on demand all costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it or, in the case of a
Funding Agent, the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and
the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including without limitation, the cost of any
Conduit’s auditors auditing the books, records and procedures of Seller, reasonable fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of legal counsel (which such counsel may be employees of the Agent, such
Funding Agent or any Purchaser) with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Agent, such
Funding Agent or any such Purchaser as to its rights and remedies under this Agreement. Seller
shall pay to the Agent and each Funding Agent on demand any and all costs and expenses incurred by
it or, in the case of a Funding Agent, the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, if any, including
reasonable counsel fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the
other documents delivered hereunder and in connection with any restructuring or workout of this
Agreement or such documents, or the administration of this Agreement following an Amortization
Event.

ARTICLE XI

THE AGENT AND FUNDING AGENTS

Section 11.1 Authorization and Action. Each Purchaser hereby designates and appoints
its related Funding Agent and the Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under each other
Transaction Document, and authorizes its related Funding Agent and the Agent to take such actions
as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Funding Agent or the
Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents together with such powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, or any fiduciary
relationship with any Purchaser, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities on the part of the Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document or otherwise exist for the Agent. In performing its functions and duties
hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, the Agent shall act solely as agent for the
Purchasers and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship
of trust or agency with or for any Seller Party or any of such Seller Party’s successors or
assigns. In performing their functions and duties hereunder, the Funding Agents shall act solely
as the agent for the respective Conduits and Committed Purchasers in the related Purchaser Group
and do not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or
agency with or for the other Purchasers, Seller, the Master Servicer, any Originator, any Affiliate
thereof or any of their respective successors and assigns. Neither the Agent nor any Funding Agent
shall be required to take any action that exposes the Agent or such Funding Agent to personal
liability or that is contrary to this

 

36

 

Agreement, any other Transaction Document or applicable law. The appointment and authority of
the Agent and the Funding Agents hereunder shall terminate upon the indefeasible payment in full of
all Aggregate Unpaids. Each Purchaser hereby authorizes the Agent to (i) file each of the UCC
financing or continuation statements (and amendments thereto and assignments or terminations
thereof) and (ii) execute each of the Collection Account Agreements on behalf of such Purchaser
(the terms of which shall be binding on such Purchaser).

Section 11.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement and each other Transaction Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall
be entitled to rely on advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care.

Section 11.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any Funding Agent nor any
of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (i) liable for any action
lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Transaction Document (except for its, their or such Person’s own gross negligence or
willful misconduct), (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Purchasers for any recitals,
statements, representations or warranties made by any Seller Party contained in this Agreement, any
other Transaction Document or any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or
provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement, or any other Transaction
Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement, or any other Transaction Document or any other document furnished in connection
herewith or therewith, or for any failure of any Seller Party to perform its obligations hereunder
or thereunder, or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article VI, or for the
perfection, priority, condition, value or sufficiency of any collateral pledged in connection
herewith, (iii) under any obligation to any Purchaser to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of,
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of
the Seller Parties, or (iv) deemed to have knowledge of any Amortization Event or Potential
Amortization Event unless the Agent or such Funding Agent, as applicable, has received notice from
Seller or a Purchaser.

Section 11.4 Reliance by Funding Agents and Agent. Each of the Agent and each Funding

all of the Purchasers, as applicable, in the case of the Agent, or the Purchasers in its Purchaser
Group, in the case of such Funding Agent, as it deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified
to its satisfaction by the Funding Agents, in the case of the Agent, or its related Purchasers, in
the case of such Funding Agent, provided, that unless and until the Agent or such Funding Agent
shall have received

refrain from taking any action, as the Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Purchasers or as such Funding Agent shall deem
advisable and in the best interests of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group. The Agent shall in

of the Required Funding Agents or all of the Purchasers, as applicable, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Purchasers. Each
Funding Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in
accordance with a request of any Purchaser in its Purchaser Group and such request and any action
taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Purchasers in its Purchaser
Group.

Purchaser expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent, nor any Funding Agent, nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any
representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent or any Funding Agent hereafter
taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of any Seller Party, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent or any Funding Agent. Each
Purchaser represents and warrants to the Agent and the Funding Agents that it has and will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any Funding Agent or any other Purchaser and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions
and creditworthiness of Seller and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement, the other
Transaction Documents and all other documents related hereto or thereto.

reimburse and indemnify the Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and
agents ratably according to its Purchaser Group’s Percentage, to the extent not paid or reimbursed
by the Seller Parties (i) for any amounts for which the Agent, acting in its capacity as Agent, is
entitled to reimbursement by the Seller Parties hereunder and (ii) for any other expenses incurred
by the Agent, in its capacity as Agent and acting on behalf of the Purchasers, in connection with
the administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Each
Committed Purchaser agrees to reimburse and indemnify its related Funding Agent and its officers,
directors, employees, representatives and agents ratably according to its Pro Rata Share, to the
extent not paid or reimbursed by the Seller Parties (i) for any amounts for which such Funding
Agent, acting in its capacity as Funding Agent, is entitled to reimbursement by the Seller Parties
hereunder and (ii) for any other expenses incurred by such Funding Agent, in its capacity as
Funding Agent and acting on behalf of the Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, in connection with the
administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Agent and the Agent and their respective Affiliates may engage make loans to, accept deposits from

Funding Agent or the Agent, as applicable, were not the Agent or Funding Agent hereunder. With
respect to the acquisition of Purchaser Interests pursuant to this Agreement, each Funding Agent
and the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement in its individual capacity
as any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not a Funding Agent or the Agent, as
applicable, and the terms “Funding Agent” (in respect of the
Agent), “Committed Purchaser,” “Purchaser,” “Committed Purchasers” and “Purchasers” shall

appointed pursuant hereto and (y) thirty (30) days after the date of such notice. If any such
party shall resign as Agent or Funding Agent under this Agreement, then, in the case of the Agent,
the Required Funding Agents and in the case of any Funding Agent, its related Conduits, during such
five-day period shall appoint a successor agent, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to
the rights, powers and duties of the Agent or applicable Funding Agent and references herein to the

Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement on the date described in the first sentence of this

resignation hereunder as Agent, the retiring Agent or Funding Agent, as applicable, shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and
the provisions of this Article XI and Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit with

ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

Section 12.1 Assignments.

(a) Seller and each Committed Purchaser hereby agree and consent to the complete or partial
assignment by each Conduit of all or any portion of its rights under, interest in, title to and
obligations under this Agreement (i) to a Funding Source pursuant to a Funding Agreement, (ii) to
any other issuer of Commercial Paper sponsored or administered by the Funding Agent of such
Conduit’s Purchaser Group and with a short-term debt rating of A-1 or better by Standard & Poor’s
Ratings Group and P-1 by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. or (iii) to any other Person; provided,
that, prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, such Conduit may not make any such
assignment pursuant to this clause (iii), except in the event that the circumstances described in
Section 12.1(c) occur, without the consent of Seller (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), and upon such assignment, such Conduit shall be released from
its obligations so assigned. Further, Seller and each Committed Purchaser hereby agree that any
assignee of any Conduit of this Agreement or all or any of the Purchaser Interests of such Conduit
shall have all of the rights and benefits under this Agreement as if the term “Conduit” explicitly
referred to such party, and no such assignment shall in any way impair the rights and benefits of
such Conduit hereunder. Neither Seller nor the Master Servicer shall have the right to assign its
rights or obligations under this Agreement.

 

39

 

(b) Any Committed Purchaser may at any time and from time to time assign to one or more
Persons (each a “Purchasing Committed Purchaser” and collectively, the
“Purchasing Committed Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement pursuant to an assignment agreement, substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit VII hereto (an “Assignment Agreement”) executed by such Purchasing
Committed Purchaser and such selling Committed Purchaser. The consent of its related Conduits
shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment. Except for an assignment
pursuant to Section 12.1(c), unless an Amortization Event shall have occurred and be
continuing, the consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall also be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment. Each assignee of a
Committed Purchaser must (i) have a short-term debt rating of A-1 or better by Standard & Poor’s
Ratings Group and P-1 by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. and (ii) agree to deliver to the Agent and
the related Funding Agent, promptly following any request therefor by the applicable Funding Agent
or any related Conduit, an enforceability opinion in form and substance satisfactory to such
Funding Agent and its related Conduits. Upon delivery of the executed Assignment Agreement to such
Funding Agent, such selling Committed Purchaser shall be released from its obligations hereunder to
the extent of such assignment. Thereafter the Purchasing Committed Purchaser shall for all
purposes be a Committed Purchaser party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and
obligations of a Committed Purchaser under this Agreement to the same extent as if it were an
original party hereto and no further consent or action by Seller, the Purchasers, the Funding
Agents or the Agent shall be required.

(c) Each of the Committed Purchasers agrees that in the event that it shall cease to have a
short-term debt rating of A-1 or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group and P-1 by Moody’s
Investor Service, Inc. (an “Affected Committed Purchaser”), such Affected Committed
Purchaser shall be obliged, at the request of any Conduit or the Funding Agent of its Purchaser
Group, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (x) another Committed Purchaser or
(y) another funding entity nominated by such Funding Agent and acceptable to its related Conduits,
and willing to participate in this Agreement through the Facility Termination Date in the place of
such Affected Committed Purchaser; provided, that the Affected Committed Purchaser receives payment
in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such Committed Purchaser’s Pro
Rata Share of its Purchaser Group’s Percentage of the Aggregate Capital, Term-out Period Advances
and Yield owing to the Committed Purchasers and all accrued but unpaid fees and other costs and
expenses payable in respect of such Pro Rata Share or its Term-out Period Advances.

Section 12.2 Participations. Any Committed Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of
its business at any time sell to one or more Persons (each, a “Participant”) participating
interests in its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Committed Purchasers in its
Purchaser Group or any other interest of such Committed Purchaser hereunder. Notwithstanding any
such sale by a Committed Purchaser of a participating interest to a Participant, such Committed
Purchaser’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Committed
Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and
Seller, the Purchasers, the Funding Agents and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Committed Purchaser in connection with such Committed Purchaser’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement. Each Committed Purchaser agrees that any agreement between such Committed
Purchaser and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict
such Committed Purchaser’s right to agree to any
amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment,
supplement, waiver or modification described in Section 14.1(b)(i).

 

40

 

Section 12.3 Federal Reserve. Any Committed Purchaser may at any time pledge or grant

Purchaser Interest and any rights to payment of Capital and Yield) under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Committed Purchaser to a Federal Reserve Bank, and the foregoing provisions of
this Article XII shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided, that
no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a Committed Purchaser from any of its
obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Committed Purchaser as a
party hereto.

Person whom such Funding Agent in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of Seller. Seller
agrees to deliver promptly to each Funding Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice
signed by an authorized officer of Seller; provided, however, the absence of such confirmation
shall not affect the validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs from the action
taken by any Funding Agent, the records of such Funding Agent shall govern absent manifest error.

payment made to it with respect to any portion of the Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Purchaser
(other than payments received pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3) in a greater
proportion than that received by any other Purchaser entitled to receive a ratable share of such
Aggregate Unpaids, such Purchaser agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without
recourse or warranty a portion of such Aggregate Unpaids held by the other Purchasers so that after
such purchase each Purchaser will hold its ratable proportion of such Aggregate Unpaids; provided
that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Purchaser, such

Conduits and for the Committed Purchasers in its Purchaser Group, (iii) as issuing and paying agent
for the Commercial Paper issued by one or more Conduits, (iv) to provide credit or liquidity
enhancement for the timely payment for the Commercial Paper of one or more Conduits and (v) to

Purchaser hereby acknowledges and consents to any and all JPMorgan Roles and agrees that in
connection with any JPMorgan Role, JPMorgan may take, or refrain from taking, any action that it,
in its discretion, deems appropriate, including, without limitation, in its role as Agent
hereunder.

(b) Each of the Purchasers acknowledges that its Funding Agent acts, or may in the future act,
(i) as administrative agent for any Conduit or Committed Purchaser, (ii) as issuing and paying
agent for the Commercial Paper of any Conduit, (iii) to provide credit or liquidity enhancement for
the timely payment for the Commercial Paper of any Conduit and (iv) to provide other services from
time to time for any Conduit or Committed Purchaser (collectively, the “Funding Agent

action that it, in its discretion, deems appropriate, including, without limitation, in its role as

pursuant to an agreement with a Funding Source.

(c) Ralcorp and the Seller hereby acknowledge and agree that any Funding Agent or any

Commercial Paper issued by any Conduit for its own account, regardless of any difference between
the discount or yield on such Commercial Paper and the applicable LIBO Rate.

Section 14.14 Characterization.

(a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each purchase hereunder shall constitute
and be treated as an absolute and irrevocable sale, which purchase shall provide the applicable
Purchaser with the full benefits of ownership of the applicable Purchaser Interest. Except as
specifically provided in this Agreement, each sale of a Purchaser Interest hereunder is made
without recourse to Seller; provided, however, that (i) Seller shall be liable to each Purchaser,
each Funding Agent and the Agent for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities
made by Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and
is not intended to result in an assumption by any Purchaser, any Funding Agent or the Agent or any
assignee thereof of any obligation of Seller or any Originator or any other Person arising in
connection with the Receivables, the Related Security, or the related Contracts, or any other
obligations of Seller or any Originator.

 

46

 

(b) In addition to any ownership interest which the Agent may from time to time acquire
pursuant hereto, Seller hereby grants to the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers a
valid and perfected security interest in all of Seller’s right, title and interest in, to
and under all Receivables now existing or hereafter arising, the Collections, each Lock-Box,
each Collection Account, all Related Security, all other rights and payments relating to such
Receivables, and all proceeds of any thereof prior to all other liens on and security interests
therein to secure the prompt and complete payment of the Aggregate Unpaids. The Agent and the
Purchasers shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies that they may have under this
Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other
applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

(c) If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed above, any sale or transfer by
Seller hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale or such sale shall for any
reason be ineffective or unenforceable (any of the foregoing being a “Recharacterization”), then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other
applicable law. In the case of any Recharacterization, Seller represents and warrants that each
remittance of Collections to the Agent or the Purchasers hereunder will have been (i) in payment of
a debt incurred in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs and (ii) made in the
ordinary course of business or financial affairs.

(d) Seller hereby authorizes the Agent to file a financing statement naming Seller as debtor
or seller that describes the collateral as “all assets whether now existing or hereafter arising”
or words of similar effect.

Section 14.15 Limited Recourse.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligations of any Conduit
under this Agreement are solely the obligations of such Conduit and, in the case of obligations of
such Conduit other than Commercial Paper, shall be payable at such time as funds are received by or
are available to such Conduit in excess of funds necessary to pay in full all outstanding
Commercial Paper of such Conduit and, to the extent funds are not available to pay such
obligations, the claims relating thereto shall not constitute a claim against such Conduit but
shall continue to accrue. Each party hereto agrees that the payment of any claim (as defined in
Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code) of any such party against a Conduit shall be
subordinated to the payment in full of all Commercial Paper of such Conduit.

(b) No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of any Conduit contained in this
Agreement shall be had against any member, manager, officer, director, employee or agent of such
Conduit, the Agent, the Funding Agents or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such
capacity) by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue
of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is solely
an obligation of such Conduit individually, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to
or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, employee or agent of
such Conduit, the Agent, the Funding Agents or any of their Affiliates (solely by virtue of such
