SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Buyer that each conveyance of the Receivables and the Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer under this Purchase Facility be absolute and irrevocable and provide Purchaser with the full benefits of ownership of such Receivables and Related Rights, and each Originator hereby relinquishes all title and control over such Receivables and Related Rights upon each such conveyance.

Without limiting the forgoing, each Originator shall promptly, and in any such event within ten (10) Business Days after the first sale of Quebec Receivables by such Originator to the Buyer hereunder, cause an application for registration to be prepared and registered with the Register of Personal and Movable Real Rights (Quebec) in respect of the Quebec Assignment Agreement delivered by such Originator and cause Quebec counsel to deliver a post-registration opinion confirming that all such registrations have been duly effected.

PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 3.1 Initial Closing Date Purchase Price Payment.

(a)    On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the purchase to be made from such Originator on the Initial Closing Date (i) by issuing limited partnership interests in the Buyer to such Originator and by adding to such Originator’s capital account in the Buyer an amount equal to the Purchase Price payable to such Originator (or a portion thereof), and/or (ii) by issuing a promissory note in the form of Exhibit B to such Originator (each such promissory note, as it may be amended, supplemented, endorsed or otherwise modified from time to time, together with all promissory notes issued from time to time in substitution therefor or renewal thereof in accordance with the Transaction Documents, each being herein called a “Subordinated Note”) with an initial principal amount equal to the remaining Purchase Price payable to such Originator that was not satisfied by way of an increase in the Originator’s capital account in the Buyer.

SECTION 3.2 Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Initial Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer shall pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables and the Related Rights generated by such Originator on such Payment Date:

(a)    First, in cash to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement);

(b)    Second, solely to the extent that such Originator is or will become a limited partner of the Buyer, if any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the Buyer may elect to satisfy all or any portion of the remaining Purchase Price payable to such Originator by issuing limited partnership interests in the Buyer to such Originator and by adding to such Originator’s capital account in the Buyer an amount equal to such remaining unpaid Purchase Price (or a portion thereof); and

(c)    Third, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Subordinated Note shall be automatically increased by an amount equal to such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price;

provided, however, that if more than one Originator is selling Receivables to the Buyer on the date of such purchase, the Buyer shall make cash payments among the Originators in such a way as to minimize to the greatest extent practicable the aggregate principal amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Notes.

On each Monthly Settlement Date, based on the most recent Purchase Records, the Buyer and each Originator shall determine the net amount of cash payments made by the Buyer to such

6

Originator during the related Fiscal Month in respect of the Purchase Price for Receivables acquired from such Originator, after giving effect to Section 3.4 hereof and Section 3.01 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the amount of the increase or decrease in such Originator’s Subordinated Note, and in the case of any Originator that is a limited partner of the Buyer, the portion of such Purchase Price allocable to a capital contribution, and the Buyer shall report or cause to be reported the foregoing determinations to the Administrative Agent.

Interest and principal on each Subordinated Note shall be paid by the Buyer in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. Each Originator is authorized by the Buyer to make appropriate notations on its Subordinated Note to reflect the date and amount of each advance thereunder and the date and amount of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notations shall not affect any obligation of the Buyer thereunder. Each holder of a Subordinated Note agrees to ▇▇▇▇ the Subordinated Note “CANCELED” and return such Subordinated Note to the Buyer upon the final payment thereof after the occurrence of the Purchase and Sale Termination Date of the related Originator to whom such Subordinated Note was originally issued.

SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.

(a)    If, on the day of purchase of any Receivable from an Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.1(k), (l), (m), (v), (w) or (bb) are not true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price for such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Purchase Price minus the amount of Collections received by the Buyer thereon, and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below; provided, that if the Buyer thereafter receives payment on account of any such Receivable, the Buyer promptly shall deliver such funds to such Originator. Upon payment by the Originator or other application of such credit in accordance with clause (c) below, all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivable and any Related Rights (including any related returned goods) shall be reconveyed to the applicable Originator, and any related interest of Buyer in such Receivable and such Related Rights shall be deemed released and relinquished, in each case without further action by any Person.

(b)    If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable sold by an Originator hereunder is reduced or adjusted as a result of (i) defective, rejected or returned goods or services, (ii) any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo, discount, warranty payment or other voluntary reduction in the amounts actually owed by the applicable Pool Obligor made by such Originator or any of its Affiliates (other than as a result of the receipt of Collections), (iii) any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between any Pool Obligor and such Originator or any of its Affiliates (whether arising from the transaction giving rise to a Pool Receivable or any unrelated transaction) or (iv) any correction to the reported Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable as of the date of its sale hereunder due to such reported Outstanding Balance being in excess of its actual Outstanding Balance as of such date, then, in any such case, to the extent it would not constitute reimbursement for any Credit Risk Losses and except as provided in the following paragraph, the Purchase Price with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by the amount of such net reduction or adjustment and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below. Upon payment by the Originator or other application of such credit in accordance with clause (c) below, all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and to any returned goods or any other

7

Related Rights specific to the portion of the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable that was so reduced shall be reconveyed by the Buyer to the applicable Originator, and any related interest of Buyer in such returned goods or other Related Rights shall be deemed released and relinquished, in each case without further action by any Person.

If (x) a Pool Receivable (or any portion thereof) is cancelled and the related Outstanding Balance of such Receivable (or portion thereof) is reduced to zero by an Originator in accordance with its customary credit and rebilling practices, (y) such Originator simultaneously generates a new Receivable (or portion thereof) payable by the same Obligor for the sale of goods, performance of services or license of software giving rise to the cancelled or reduced Pool Receivable in accordance with such Originator’s customary credit and rebilling practices, and such Originator sells such new Receivable (or portion thereof) to the Buyer hereunder and (z) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has not occurred with respect to such Originator, then the Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price otherwise payable by it for such new Receivable (or portion thereof) in an amount equal to the Purchase Price paid by the Buyer hereunder for the cancelled portion of such Receivable, and the amount of the related net reduction or adjustment to be accounted for as provided in clause (c) below shall be equal to the amount, if any, by which such new Receivable’s Outstanding Balance (or portion thereof) related to the sale of such goods, performance of such services or license of such software is less than the Outstanding Balance of such cancelled Pool Receivable (or portion thereof).

(c)    For so long as: (A) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has not occurred with respect to such Originator, (B) no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and (C) no Capital Coverage Deficit exists, any reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall, at the option of the related Originator:

(i)    be applied as a credit for the account of the Buyer against the Purchase Price of Receivables acquired by the Buyer from such Originator hereunder during the Fiscal Month in which such reduction of the Purchase Price occurred;

(ii)    be applied as a repayment of principal to the outstanding principal balance under the Subordinated Note payable to such Originator;

(iii)    be paid in cash to the Buyer by deposit of immediately available funds into a Lock-Box Account as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in such amount had actually been received on such date; or

(iv)    any combination of the foregoing.

In all other cases (including if (A) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has occurred with respect to the applicable Originator, (B) a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or (C) a Capital Coverage Deficit exists), any such reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable shall be paid solely in cash by the applicable Originator in accordance with clause (iii) above.

8

SECTION 3.4 Return of Certain Payments. If any Originator receives any cash payments or cash distributions from the Buyer or from Collections during any Fiscal Month (including in respect of the purchase price for Receivables, payments of principal or interest on any Subordinated Note or dividends) at any time during which a Capital Coverage Deficit existed or resulted from such payments or distributions, such Originator shall return the amount of all such payments and distributions to the Buyer on the first Monthly Settlement Date following such Fiscal Month to be treated as Collections and applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that each Originator may net from the amount it is required to return to the Buyer, the amount (if any) that would otherwise be paid by the Buyer to such Originator on such Monthly Settlement Date in accordance with Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement from available Collections (including Collections returned to the Buyer by Originators pursuant to this paragraph and by the Canadian Servicer pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement). If any delay by an Originator to pay over such amounts causes the Buyer to incur the obligation to pay additional interest or fees in respect of such amounts under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, such Originator shall additionally pay over to the Buyer, to treated as Collections and applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, an amount sufficient to compensate the Buyer for the amount of such interest and fees.

(c)    If for any reason any indemnification to which an Originator Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled pursuant to the terms of Section 9.1(a) is unavailable to such Originator Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the applicable Originator shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Originator Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of such Originator and its Related Indemnified Parties on the one hand and such Originator Indemnified Party and its Affiliates on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Originator and its Affiliates and such Originator Indemnified Party and its Related Indemnified Parties with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of each Originator under this Section shall, to the extent not duplicative, be in addition to any liability which such Originator may otherwise have.

(d)    All amounts owed by any Originator under this Section 9.1 shall be paid by such Originator by the Monthly Settlement Date following the Fiscal Month during which such Originator has received the written demand of the related Originator Indemnified Amounts from the applicable Originator Indemnified Party. Any indemnification or contribution under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
