      Dear
Messrs. Wiener and Calabria:

    

    

    This
letter agreement (this “Agreement”) is intended to confirm certain
understandings and agreements among EasyLink Services International Corporation
(“EasyLink”), on the one hand, and Burnham Asset Management Corp., Burnham
Securities Inc. and their affiliates (collectively, “Burnham”), on the other
hand, with respect to Burnham’s “Beneficial Ownership” of “Corporation
Securities” (as such terms, and the other capitalized terms not defined herein,
are defined in that certain Stockholder Rights Agreement, by and between the
Company and American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC, as rights agent,
dated as of August 25, 2009 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Rights
Agreement”)).

     

    The
parties acknowledge that in response to Burnham’s request to be deemed an
“Exempted Person” under the Rights Agreement following a change in Burnham’s
Beneficial Ownership of Corporation Securities that, absent action taken by
EasyLink’s Board of Directors, would have caused Burnham to become an “Acquiring
Person” under the Rights Agreement, EasyLink’s Board of Directors has determined
that such occurrence would not jeopardize, endanger or limit the availability to
EasyLink of its “Tax Benefits” and that the determination to deem Burnham to be
an Exempted Person was in the best interests of EasyLink and its
stockholders.

     

    Burnham
hereby agrees that, from the date hereof until the termination of the Rights
Agreement, Burnham (together with its “Affiliates” and “Associates”) shall not
increase its Beneficial Ownership of Corporation Securities, and Burnham shall
cause its Affiliates and Associates not to increase their Beneficial Ownership
of Corporation Securities, to an amount in excess of 9.9% of outstanding
Corporation Securities.

     

    This
Agreement, together with the Rights Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement
among the parties with respect to the subject matter herein and supersedes any
prior agreement or understanding among the parties hereto.  This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Georgia without regard to principles of conflicts of law that would
apply the laws of a different jurisdiction.  In case any provision in
this Agreement shall be deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall
not in any way be affected or impaired hereby.  This Agreement may be
executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
all of which together shall constitute one agreement, and any facsimile, e-mail
or other electronic transmission of a counterpart hereto shall constitute an
original hereof.

means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in such other state or
jurisdiction for purposes of the provisions hereof relating to such attachment,
perfection, priority or enforcement of a Lien in such Collateral.  To
the extent this Agreement defines the term “Collateral” by reference to terms
used in the Uniform Commercial Code, each of such terms shall have the broadest
meaning given to such terms under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in

respect to each Purchased Account and the Related Rights with respect thereto,
an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the sum of Prime Rate plus two and one half
of one percent (2.50%) per annum, or (ii) the lawful maximum, if any, in effect
from time to time for advances to customers of the type, in the amount, for the
purposes and otherwise of the kind herein contemplated.  Upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Termination, with respect
to each Purchased Account and the Related Rights with respect thereto, the WFBC
Discount shall be equal to the sum of Prime Rate plus five and one half of one
percent (5.50%) per annum, or such lesser amount as WFBC in its sole discretion
may determine (but in no event shall such fee be more than the lawful maximum,
if any, in effect from time to time for advances of the type, in the amount, for
the purposes and otherwise of the kind herein contemplated).  The WFBC
Discount shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual
number of days elapsed.  WFBC may increase the WFBC Discount if WFBC’s
cost of funds increases for any reason.  Such change shall be
effective upon the actual change in WFBC’s cost of funds.

     

    2.56         “WFBC Discount Fee” shall have
the meaning set forth in Section 3.08(a).

    3.01         Purchase and Assignment of
Accounts.  Pursuant to the terms herein and in consideration
for amounts paid to the Customer on the date hereof as well as amounts paid to
the Customer during the term hereof, the Customer hereby agrees to sell,
transfer and assign to WFBC, with recourse, as absolute owner, and WFBC hereby
agrees to purchase from the Customer, during the period from the Closing Date to

Assignment and Schedule of Accounts acceptable to WFBC in its sole discretion,
all of the Customer’s right, title and interest in and to the
following:

     

     (a)           Each
Acceptable Account generated by the Customer which is offered for sale, transfer
and assignment by the Customer pursuant to an Assignment and Schedule of
Accounts delivered to WFBC by the Customer and accepted by WFBC in its sole
discretion (collectively, the “Purchased Accounts” and each, a “Purchased
Account”);

     

     (b)           All
rights of action (including all rights of stoppage in transit, replevin,
repossession, reclamation, setoff, detinue, repurchase and all other rights of
action of a consignor, consignee, unpaid vendor, mechanic, artisan or other
lienor) accrued or to accrue on each Purchased Account, including full power to
collect, sue for, compromise, assign, in whole or in part, or in any other
manner enforce collection thereof in the Customer’s name or
otherwise;

     

     (c)           All
right, title and interest of the Customer in and to the Records, the Related
Security, all agreements, documents or instruments relating to the Purchased
Accounts and the proceeds thereof, and all deposits and other security for the
obligation of any Person under or relating to the Purchased Accounts, in each
case whether presently existing or hereafter arising, now owned or hereafter
acquired;

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          9

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

     (d)           All
inventory and goods relating to, or which by sale have resulted in, Purchased
Accounts, including all returned inventory and goods; and

     

     (e)           All
proceeds of the foregoing in any form (collectively, with the assets described
in Section 3.01(b), Section 3.01(c), and Section 3.01(d), the “Related
Rights”).

     

    The
foregoing sales, transfers and assignments do not constitute, and are not
intended to result in, an assumption by WFBC of any liability or obligation of
the Customer or any other Person in connection with the Purchased Accounts, the
Related Rights or under any agreement or instrument relating
thereto.

     

    3.02         Approval.  WFBC shall not
purchase an Account and the Related Rights with respect thereto unless such
Account is first submitted to WFBC by the Customer for approval.  WFBC is
not obligated to buy from the Customer any Account and the Related Rights with
respect thereto that WFBC does not deem acceptable in its sole
discretion.

     

    3.03         Required Forms.  When the
Customer offers an Account and the Related Rights with respect thereto to WFBC
for sale, transfer and assignment, WFBC shall receive (a) an Assignment and
Schedule of Accounts, in a form satisfactory to WFBC in its sole discretion and
signed by an authorized representative of the Customer, (b) an original invoice
or an electronic equivalent thereof, either of which must be in a form
acceptable to WFBC in its sole discretion, (c) a copy of the bill of lading if
applicable, (d) proof of delivery, (e) contract, purchase order, or purchase
order number which corresponds with such invoice, as appropriate to the business
of the Customer, (f) notification of assignment and waiver of offset signed by
the applicable Account Debtor in a form acceptable to WFBC in its sole
discretion, and (g) any other document which WFBC may require.

     

    3.04         Purchase.  Upon approval
and acceptance by WFBC of an Account and the Related Rights with respect thereto
for the sale, transfer and assignment to WFBC of such Account and such Related
Rights, WFBC shall purchase and the Customer shall sell, transfer and assign to
WFBC such Account and such Related Rights.

     

    3.05         Purchase Price.  As
consideration for the sale, transfer and assignment to WFBC of an Account and
the Related Rights with respect thereto, WFBC shall pay to the Customer the
Purchase Price for such Account and such Related Rights on the terms and
conditions as stated herein.

     

    3.06         Payment of Purchase
Price.  Upon the sale, transfer and assignment of an Account and the
Related Rights with respect thereto to WFBC, and receipt of all documents and
forms described in Section 3.03 and upon fulfillment of all conditions precedent
to such sale, transfer and assignment as more fully set forth herein, WFBC shall
pay the Purchase Price for such Purchased Account and such Related Rights to the
Customer as follows, as determined by WFBC in its sole
discretion:  (i) WFBC shall pay such Purchase Price to the Customer or
to any third party at the Customer’s written direction to WFBC, or (ii) WFBC
shall advance such Purchase Price to the Collected Reserve Account.

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          10

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    3.07         Repurchase of
Accounts.  The Customer shall (a) repurchase any and all
Purchased Accounts and the Related Rights with respect thereto, whether disputed
or undisputed, as may be requested by WFBC, from time to time in its sole
discretion, and (b) pay on demand the Repurchase Price for such Purchased
Accounts and the Related Rights with respect thereto.  In any event
where repurchase is required under this Agreement, WFBC, at its discretion, may
charge the Repurchase Price to the Customer’s Collected Reserve Account which
may create a deficit balance in the Collected Reserve Account.

     

    3.08         Fees.

     

     (a)           WFBC Discount Fee.  The
Customer shall pay WFBC a fully earned fee equal to the product of the WFBC
Discount multiplied by the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Purchased
Accounts (the “WFBC Discount Fee”).  The WFBC Discount Fee shall accrue
daily and shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each month and
on the Final Termination Date.

     

     (b)           Audit Fees.  The Customer
shall pay WFBC, on demand, audit fees in connection with any audits or
inspections conducted by WFBC of the Purchased Accounts, the Related Rights, the
Collateral or the Customer’s operations or business, at the rates established
from time to time by WFBC as its audit fees, together with all actual out of
pocket costs and expenses incurred in conducting any such audit or inspection;
provided that the Customer shall not, with the exception of fees, costs, and
expenses incurred during the continuation of an Event of Termination, be
required to reimburse WFBC for more than two (2) such audits or inspections in
any calendar year.

     

     (c)           WFBC Processing Fee.  The
Customer shall pay WFBC a fully earned monthly processing fee equal to
$1,000.00, which fee shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of
each month and on the earlier of the Final Termination Date and the date on
which WFBC no longer has any obligations under the Rosenthal Agreement, as
determined by WFBC in its reasonable discretion.

     

    3.09         Mandatory
Payments.  Unless WFBC shall otherwise consent in a written
agreement that sets forth the terms and conditions which WFBC in its discretion
may deem appropriate, if the Purchased Amount is at any time greater than the
Facility Maximum, the Customer shall pay to WFBC, upon demand, the amount
necessary to eliminate such excess.  Any such payment received by WFBC
under this Agreement may be applied to the amounts owing to WFBC from the
Customer, in such order and in such amounts as WFBC in its sole discretion may
determine from time to time.

     

    3.10         Collected Reserve Account and
Reporting and Statement of Account. 

     

     (a)           After
collection by WFBC of a Purchased Account and the Related Rights with respect
thereto, if any, WFBC shall credit the Collected Reserve Account with the amount
collected on such Purchased Account and such Related Rights less:  (i)
the Purchase Price, and (ii) any fees, expenses or charges owed to WFBC as more
fully described herein.  Any fee, charge or other obligation of the
Customer under this Agreement or any Related Document may be charged against the
Collected Reserve Account in WFBC’s sole discretion.  Provided no
Event of Termination has occurred and is continuing, or any event has occurred
which with the passage of time or notice would be an Event of Termination, any
available balance held in the Collected Reserve shall be released twice weekly
to the Customer or to any third party, at the Customer’s written direction to
WFBC.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Termination, or the continuation of an event which with the passage of time or
notice would become an Event of Termination, WFBC may hold any balance in the
Collected Reserve Account as Collateral for any obligations of the Customer to
WFBC and WFBC may charge any such obligations against the Collected Reserve
Account in its sole discretion.

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          11

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

     (b)           On
a weekly basis, or as otherwise determined by WFBC at its sole discretion, WFBC
shall prepare, and make available to the Customer through WFBC’s online
reporting system referred to as “Commercial Electronic Office” or any
replacement thereof, an accounting of the purchases, collections, and amounts
credited to or charged against the Collected Reserve Account during that week or
other period.  Should such a statement of account indicate a deficit
balance, such balance shall be due and payable and the Customer shall
immediately pay to WFBC the amount of such deficit plus accrued interest on such
deficit balance.  Interest shall accrue on any deficit balance at the
annual rate of eighteen percent (18%), calculated on a daily basis, not to
exceed the applicable legal limit, until such deficit is paid in
full.

     

    3.11         Termination of this Agreement by
Customer.  The Customer may terminate this Agreement at any
time if it (a) gives WFBC at least thirty (30) days advance written notice prior
to the proposed Termination Date and (b) pays WFBC applicable termination fees
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  If the Customer
terminates this Agreement, on such Termination Date, (x) all amounts due
hereunder shall be immediately due and payable and (y) the Customer shall
repurchase all outstanding Purchased Accounts and the Related Rights with
respect thereto and immediately pay the Repurchase Price for such Purchased
Accounts and the Related Rights with respect thereto.

     

    3.12         Sole Property.  Once
WFBC has purchased an Account, any and all payments from whatever source as to
such Purchased Account are the sole property of WFBC.

     

    3.13         Credit Risk.  The
purchase of Accounts hereunder shall be on a full recourse to Customer
basis.

     

    3.14         Miscellaneous
Payments.  Should WFBC receive a duplicate payment on a
Purchased Account or other payment which is not identified, WFBC shall carry
these sums as open items in its accounting, shall return any duplicate payment
to the Account Debtor or apply such unidentified payment pursuant to the terms
hereof upon proper identification and documentation and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to notify the Customer thereof (provided that WFBC’s failure
to do so shall not be a breach of this Agreement).  In the event WFBC
receives payment on an Account which has not been purchased hereunder and can be
identified as being the property of the Customer, such payment will be credited
to the Collected Reserve Account and released in accordance with this
Agreement.

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          12

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    3.15         Misdirected Payments. 
With respect to misdirected payments, whenever any payment on any Purchased
Account comes into the Customer’s possession, the Customer shall hold such
payment in trust and safekeeping, as the property of WFBC, and immediately turn
over to WFBC such payment in the same form as it was received by the Customer to
WFBC. The Customer shall pay a misdirected payment fee in the amount of fifteen
percent (15%) of the amount of any payment on account of a Purchased Account
which has been received by the Customer and not delivered in kind to WFBC on the
next Business Day following the date of receipt by the Customer.  Further,
the Customer shall segregate and hold in trust and safekeeping, as the property
of WFBC, and immediately turn over to WFBC, any goods or inventory returned to,
reclaimed or repossessed by the Customer which constitute Related Rights related
to a Purchased Account.

     

    3.16         Repayment of Account
Debtor.  In the event WFBC is required to repay any Account
Debtor for a payment received by WFBC on an Account or Related Right, the amount
of the repayment by WFBC shall be an obligation of the Customer to WFBC whether
or not this Agreement has been terminated.  In the event the Customer
receives a payment from WFBC to which the Customer has no rights, repayment of
the funds to WFBC is an obligation of the Customer to WFBC whether or not this
Agreement has been terminated.  In either event, if the obligation is
not paid upon five (5) days notice of the obligation to pay from WFBC to the
Customer, WFBC may file a financing statement in connection with the security
interest granted herein (if necessary) or otherwise perfect its interest in the
Collateral and exercise any and all rights it has under this Agreement, any
Related Document or otherwise to collect the amounts due.

     

    3.17         Hold Harmless.  The
Customer shall hold WFBC harmless against any Account Debtor ill will arising
from WFBC’s collecting or attempting to collect on any Purchased Account and the
Related Rights with respect thereto, provided that WFBC acts in a commercially
reasonable manner.

     

    3.18         Book Entry.  The
Customer shall, immediately upon sale to WFBC of each Account and the Related
Rights with respect thereto, make proper entries on its books and records
disclosing the absolute sale of such Accounts to WFBC on said books and records
and other documents as so directed by WFBC.

     

    3.19         Third Party
Information.  In the event WFBC provides financial information
to the Customer regarding a third party, whether by setting a Purchase Limit, at
the request of the Customer or otherwise, the Customer understands that WFBC is
not making any representations or warranties or expressing an opinion as to the
creditworthiness of any such third party.

     

    3.20         Payment Terms.

     

     (a)           All
accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, default interest, costs and any other amounts
due from the Customer shall be due and payable (i) on the date set forth herein
or, if no date is set forth herein, upon demand by WFBC, and (ii) on the Final
Termination Date.  Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be
stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment may be made
on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such
case be included in the computation of the fees, expenses, interest, costs and
any other amounts due hereunder, as the case may be.

     

     (b)           All
amounts to be paid by or deposited hereunder will be paid or deposited not later
than 1:00 p.m. (Denver, Colorado time) on the day when

calculated for the actual days elapsed based on a 360 day year.

    (c)           Amounts
due to WFBC hereunder shall be remitted to WFBC in United States
Dollars.

     

    (d)           The

Customer will pay on demand to WFBC interest (before and after default and
before and after judgment, with interest on overdue interest at the same rate)
on all amounts not paid to or deposited when due hereunder (other than amounts
due under Section 3.10(b)) at a rate equal to Prime Rate plus five and one half
of one percent (5.50%) per annum calculated daily.

     

    (f)           The
Customer will make all payments required to be made by it hereunder without
deduction or setoff regardless of any defense or counterclaim.

     

    (g)           The
Customer acknowledges that (i) WFBC may maintain records of the Purchased
Amount, all Purchased Accounts, all proceeds of Collateral and all amounts paid
by the Customer to WFBC hereunder, including all fees, interest, costs and
expenses; (ii) such records shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence
thereof and (iii) the failure of WFBC to maintain any such records shall not

Interest/Collateral.  As further inducement for WFBC to enter
into this Agreement, the Customer hereby pledges, assigns and grants to WFBC a
Lien and security interest in the Collateral as security for the payment and
performance of any and all obligations and liabilities whatsoever of the
Customer to WFBC under this Agreement or any Related
Document.  Following request by WFBC, the Customer shall grant WFBC a
Lien and security interest in all Collateral consisting of commercial tort
claims that it may have against any Person.

     

    7.02         Security
Documents.  The Customer authorizes WFBC, at the Customer’s
expense, to file financing statements describing the Purchased Accounts, the
Related Rights and the Collateral to perfect WFBC’s Lien in the Purchased
Accounts, the Related Rights and the Collateral, and WFBC may describe the
Collateral as “all personal property” or “all assets” or describe specific items
of Collateral including commercial tort claims, as WFBC may consider necessary
or useful to perfect WFBC’s Lien in the Purchased Accounts, the Related Rights
and the Collateral.  All financing statements filed before the date of
this Agreement to perfect such Lien were authorized by the
Customer.  Following the Final Termination Date, WFBC will, at the
Customer’s expense and within the time periods required under applicable law,
release or terminate any and all filings or other agreements that perfect its
Liens in the Purchased Accounts, the Related Rights and the
Collateral.

    (q)           Exercise
any other rights and remedies available to the Customer with respect to the
Purchased Accounts, the Related Rights or the Collateral.

     

    (r)           Exercise
any other rights and remedies available to it by law or agreement.

     

    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination described in

due and payable automatically without presentment, demand, protest or notice of
any kind.

     

    10.02      Sale of
Collateral.  During the continuation of an Event of
Termination, if WFBC sells any of the Collateral on credit, the amounts payable
to WFBC hereunder will be reduced only to the extent of payments actually
received.  If the purchaser fails to pay for any Collateral, WFBC may
resell such Collateral and shall apply any proceeds actually received to the
amounts payable by the Customer to WFBC.

     

    10.03      Certain
Notices.  During the continuation of an Event of Termination,
if notice to the Customer of any intended disposition of Purchased Accounts,
Related Rights or Collateral or any other intended action is required by law in
a particular instance, such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable if
given (in the manner specified in Section 11.18) at least ten calendar days
before the date of intended disposition or other action.

    Miscellaneous
Provisions

     

    11.01      Binding on Future
Parties.  This Agreement inures to the benefit of and is
binding upon the successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided,
however, that the Customer shall not assign its rights hereunder or any interest
herein without WFBC’s prior written consent which may be withheld in its sole
discretion.

     

    11.02      Participations.  WFBC
may sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests
in the interests of WFBC hereunder.  WFBC shall remain solely
responsible for performing its obligations hereunder, and the Customer shall
continue to deal solely and directly with WFBC in connection with WFBC’s rights
and obligations hereunder.  Each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 11.07 and shall have the right of setoff through its
participation in amounts owing hereunder to the same extent as if it were
WFBC.  If any Participant has the right to deal directly with the
Customer regarding the Customer’s rights and obligations hereunder, the Customer
may terminate this Agreement with thirty (30) days prior written notice to
WFBC.

     

    11.03      Cumulative
Rights.  No failure or delay by WFBC in exercising any right,
power or remedy under this Agreement, any Related Document or any Related Right
shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under this Agreement, any
Related Document or any Related Right.  The remedies provided herein
are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          30

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

    

    11.04      Setoff.  WFBC may,
at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion and without demand or
notice to anyone, setoff any liability owed to the Customer by WFBC against any
amounts payable to WFBC by the Customer, whether or not due; provided that WFBC
will make commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Customer after such
setoff, unless such setoff is made (a) against the Collected Reserve Account or
otherwise in WFBC’s normal course of business consistent with past practices or
(b) during the continuation of an Event of Termination; provided, further, that
WFBC’s failure to so notify the Customer shall not be a breach of this
Agreement.

     

    11.05      Waiver.  WFBC may
not waive its rights and remedies unless the waiver is in writing and signed by
WFBC.  A waiver by WFBC of a right or remedy under this Agreement on
one occasion is not a waiver of the right or remedy on any subsequent
occasion.

     

    11.06      Failure to
Perform.  If the Customer fails to perform any of its
agreements or obligations hereunder or under any Related Document or any Related
Right, WFBC may (but will not be required to) itself perform, or cause to be
performed, such agreement or obligation.

     

    11.07      Indemnity.

     

    (a)           In
addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 11.19, the Customer
shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless WFBC, and any of its participants,
parent entities, subsidiary entities, affiliated entities, successor entities,
and all present and future officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents
of the foregoing (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities,
losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, claims, costs and expenses of any
kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel) arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, any Related
Document, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, any Purchased
Account, any Related Rights, any Collateral, any action taken or omitted by any
of the Indemnitees, any actions to be performed by the Customer hereunder or
otherwise, or in connection with any of the foregoing, any investigative,
administrative or judicial proceedings, whether or not such Indemnitee shall be
designated a party thereto, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against any such Indemnitee, the purchase of Accounts, the use or intended use
of the proceeds of the payments made to the Customer, or any of the following
(collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”):

     

    (i)           any
representation or warranty made or deemed to be made by the Customer (or any of
the Customer’s officers) in or in connection with this Agreement or any Related
Document, which was incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made
or delivered;

     

    (ii)          the
failure of the Customer to perform or observe any of its covenants, duties or
obligations hereunder or under any of the Related Documents;

     

    (iii)         the
failure by the Customer to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation,
order, injunction, award or decree with respect to any Purchased Account or
Related Rights, including any applicable bulk sales legislation, or the
nonconformity thereof with any applicable law, rule, regulation, order,
injunction, award or decree;

     

    (iv)         the
return or transfer by WFBC to the Customer of any payments received by WFBC
pursuant hereto to which WFBC is entitled pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement;

     

    
      
        
           

        

        
          31

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

    

     

    (v)          any
loss of a perfected Lien or ownership interest (or in the priority of such Lien
or ownership interest) as a result of any commingling by the Customer of funds
to which WFBC is entitled hereunder with any other funds;

     

    (vi)         any
dilution, claims, disputes, damages, offsets, penalties, losses or defenses
arising from any Purchased Account or Related Rights or any claims, disputes,
offsets or defenses in connection with any merchandise or services which are the
subject of the Related Rights, including any product liability claim or personal
injury or property damage suit (provided, however, that nothing contained in
this subsection shall limit the liability of the Customer or limit the recourse
of WFBC to the Customer for any amounts otherwise specifically provided to be
paid by the Customer hereunder);

     

    (vii)     
  any failure of (a) any agreement with an Account Debtor to contain
an enforceable right of assignment and an express right to make information of
such Account Debtor available to the Customer’s assignees and their agents; and
(b) the Customer to bring such rights to the attention of the related Account
Debtor in compliance with applicable law; and

     

    (viii)       any
claims, demands, expenses, loss or damage resulting from or growing out of
honoring or relying on the signature or other authority (whether or not properly
used) of any officer or person whose name and signature was certified pursuant
to Section 8.02, or refusing to honor any signature or authority not so
certified.

     

    Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Customer shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee
for (A) any Indemnified Liability caused directly by the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (B) any overall net income taxes
imposed on such Indemnitee by the jurisdiction under the law of which such
Indemnitee is organized or otherwise considered doing business or any political
subdivision thereof.

     

    (b)           If
any investigative, judicial or administrative proceeding arising from any of the
foregoing is brought against any Indemnitee, upon such Indemnitee’s request, the
Customer and counsel, designated by the Customer and satisfactory to the
Indemnitee, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding to the extent
and in the manner directed by the Indemnitee, at the Customer’s cost and
expense.  Each Indemnitee will use commercially reasonable efforts to
cooperate in the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding.  If
the foregoing undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless may be held to
be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Customer
shall nevertheless make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction
of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable
law.

     

    (c)           The
obligations of the Customer under this Section 11.07 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the discharge of the other obligations of the
Customer hereunder.

    11.08       Increased Cost and Reduced
Return.  After the date of this Agreement, if the adoption of
any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by WFBC
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any
such governmental authority (a) subjects WFBC to any charge or withholding on or
in connection with this Agreement or any Related Document or any Purchased
Account, (b) changes the basis of taxation of payments to WFBC in respect of any
amounts payable under this Agreement or any Related Document (except for changes
in the rate of tax on the overall net income before tax of WFBC), (c) imposes,
modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special
deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or any credit extended by WFBC, (d) has the effect of reducing the
rate of return on WFBC’s capital to a level below that which WFBC could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration
WFBC’s policies concerning capital adequacy) or (e) imposes any other condition,
and the result of any of the foregoing is (x) to impose a cost on, or increase
the cost to WFBC of its purchasing, maintaining or funding any interest acquired
under this Agreement or any Related Document, (y) to reduce the amount of any
sum received or receivable by, or to reduce the rate of return of WFBC under
this Agreement or any related transaction document or (z) to require any payment
calculated by reference to the amounts received by it hereunder, then, upon
demand by WFBC, the Customer shall pay to WFBC (with respect to amounts owed to
it) such additional amounts as will compensate WFBC for such increased cost or
reduction.

validly have agreed to by contract on the date hereof under applicable
law.  It is further agreed that any excess actually received by WFBC
shall be credited against any amount owing hereunder.

parties agree that this Agreement has been mutually negotiated at arm’s length
