PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility

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 one or more of the Purchasers. In accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Relevant Conduits in their respective Conduit Groups may collectively, at their option, instruct the Agent to purchase on their behalf, or if either of the Relevant Conduits shall decline to purchase, the Agent shall purchase, on behalf of the Committed Purchasers in the related Conduit Group, Purchaser Interests from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at such time the lesser of (i) the Purchase Limit and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Facility Termination Date. Furthermore, with respect to each Conduit Group, the product of (x) the Purchase Pro Rata Share of such Conduit Group and (y) the amount of the Purchaser Interests so purchased by the Purchasers in such Conduit Group from time to time in an aggregate amount shall not exceed at such time the lesser of (a) the related Group Purchase Limit and (b) the aggregate amount of the related Commitments for such Conduit Group during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Facility Termination Date.

Section 1.2 Increases

Seller shall provide the Funding Agents with at least one Business Days’ prior notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Incremental Purchase (a “Purchase Notice”), with a written copy thereof delivered simultaneously to the Agent. 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 (which shall be at least $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof) and date of purchase and, in the case of an Incremental Purchase to be funded by the Committed Purchasers, the requested Discount Rate and Tranche Period. Following receipt of a Purchase Notice, the Funding Agents will determine whether the Relevant Conduits in their respective Conduit Groups agree to make the purchase. Without the prior approval of the Relevant Conduit in each Conduit Group, Seller shall not request more than three proposed purchases in any calendar month and, unless approved by each Relevant Conduit in its sole discretion, any such requests in excess of three in any calendar month shall be void. If the Relevant Conduit in a Conduit Group declines to make a proposed purchase, Seller may cancel the Purchase Notice (with a written copy of the notice of such cancellation delivered simultaneous to the Agent) 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 Conduit Group. On the date of each Incremental Purchase, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, each Funding Agent on behalf of the Relevant Conduit or the Committed Purchasers in each Conduit Group, as applicable, shall deposit to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time), an amount equal to (i) in the case of the Relevant Conduit, the relevant Purchase Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests such Relevant Conduit is then purchasing or (ii) in the case of a Committed Purchaser, such Committed Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the relevant Purchase Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchase Price of the Purchaser Interests the Committed Purchasers in the related Conduit Group are purchasing. A default by a Purchaser in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement shall not relieve the other Purchasers of their obligations hereunder.

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, with a copy of such Reduction Notice delivered simultaneously to the Agent. 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 each Conduit Group in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to such Conduit Group (ratably, based on their respective Reduction Pro Rata Shares). The Reduction Pro Rata Share of such Aggregate Reduction with respect to a Conduit Group shall in turn be applied ratably to the Purchaser Interests of the Conduit(s) and the Committed Purchasers in such Conduit Group in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to such Conduit(s), on the one hand, and the amount of Capital (if any) owing to such Committed Purchasers (ratably, based on their respective Pro Rata Shares), on the other hand. Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time. No Aggregate Reduction will be made following the occurrence of the Amortization Date without the consent of the Agent and each Funding Agent.

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 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 p.m. (New York 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 relevant Funding Agent, for the account of such Purchaser, at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (in the case of a Purchaser in the Conduit Group with Mizuho Corporate Bank Ltd. as a Funding Agent) or ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ or an account or address designated from time to time by BTMU (in the case of a Purchaser in the Conduit Group with BTMU as a Funding Agent), as applicable, until the applicable Seller Party is otherwise notified in writing by the relevant Funding Agent. Upon notice to Seller, the relevant Funding Agent may debit the Facility Account for all relevant amounts due and payable hereunder. 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. 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 Restated Agreement

Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each reference to the Original Agreement in any other Transaction Document, and any document, instrument or agreement executed and/or delivered in connection with the Original Agreement or any other Transaction Document, shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement. The other Transaction Documents and all agreements, instruments and documents executed or delivered in connection with the Original Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall each be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary, if any, to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement, as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time. The effect of this Agreement is to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety, and to the extent that any rights, benefits or provisions in favor of the Agent or any Purchaser existed in the Original Agreement and continue to exist in this Agreement without any written waiver of any such rights, benefits or provisions prior to the date hereof, then such rights, benefits or provisions are acknowledged to be and to continue to be effective from and after April 4, 2000. This Agreement is not a novation. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that any and all rights, remedies and payment provisions under the Original Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all rights, remedies and payment provisions with respect to (i) any representation and warranty made or deemed to be made pursuant to the Original Agreement, or (ii) any indemnification provision, shall continue and survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, it being understood that any breach of a representation or warranty or occurrence of an Amortization Event that was disclosed to the Agent and Funding Agents prior to the date hereof and that is no longer continuing after giving effect to the revisions effected by this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by the due execution of this Agreement by the parties hereto. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that any and all amounts owing as or for Capital, Yield, CP Costs, fees, expenses or otherwise under or pursuant to the Original Agreement, immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, shall be owing as or for Capital, Yield, CP Costs, fees, expenses or otherwise, respectively, under or pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE II

PAYMENTS AND COLLECTIONS

Section 2.1 Payments

Notwithstanding any limitation on recourse contained in this Agreement, Seller shall immediately pay to each Funding Agent (or to an account designated by such Funding Agent) when due, for the account of the Purchaser or Purchasers in the relevant Conduit Group on a full recourse basis, (i) such relevant fees as set forth in the Fee Letter (which fees shall be sufficient to pay all fees owing to the relevant Committed Purchasers), (ii) all relevant CP Costs, (iii) all relevant amounts payable as Yield, (iv) all relevant 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 relevant amounts payable to reduce the Purchaser Interest, if required, pursuant to Section 2.6, (vi) all relevant amounts payable pursuant to Article X, if any, (vii) all relevant Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables, (viii) all relevant Broken Funding Costs and (ix) all relevant 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 ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ receives any Collections or is deemed to receive any Collections, Seller shall immediately pay such Collections or Deemed Collections to 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 Funding Agents.

Section 2.2 Collections Prior to Amortization

Prior to the Amortization Date, any Collections and/or Deemed Collections received by Servicer shall be set aside and held in trust by Servicer for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section 2.2. If at any time any Collections and/or Deemed Collections are received by Servicer prior to the Amortization Date, (i) Servicer shall set aside the Termination Percentage (hereinafter defined) of Collections evidenced by the Purchaser Interests of each Terminating Committed Purchaser and (ii) Seller hereby requests and the Purchasers (other than any Terminating Committed Purchasers) hereby agree to make, simultaneously with such receipt, a reinvestment (each a “Reinvestment”) with that portion of the balance of each and every Collection and Deemed Collection received by Servicer that is part of any Purchaser Interest (other than any Purchaser Interests of Terminating Committed Purchasers), 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. On each Settlement Date prior to the occurrence of the Amortization Date, Servicer shall remit to the account of, or designated by, each Funding Agent the relevant portion of the amounts set aside during the preceding Settlement Period that have not been subject to a Reinvestment and apply such amounts (if not previously paid in accordance with Section 2.1) first, to reduce the relevant unpaid Obligations and second, to reduce the Capital of all Purchaser Interests of Terminating Committed Purchasers in the relevant Conduit Group, applied ratably to each Terminating Committed Purchaser according to its respective Termination Percentage. If such Capital and Obligations shall be reduced to zero with respect to the Purchasers in a Conduit Group, any additional Collections received by Servicer (i) if applicable, shall be remitted to an account designated by the relevant Funding Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) to the extent required to fund such Conduit Group’s Reduction Pro Rata Share of any Aggregate Reduction on such Settlement Date and (ii) any balance remaining thereafter shall be remitted from Servicer to Seller on such Settlement Date. Each Terminating Committed Purchaser shall be allocated a ratable portion of Collections from the Liquidity Termination Date that such Terminating Committed Purchaser did not consent to extend (as to such Terminating Committed Purchaser, the “Termination Date”) until such Terminating Financing Institution’s Capital shall be paid in full. This ratable portion shall be calculated on the Termination Date of each Terminating Committed Purchaser as a percentage equal to (i) Capital of such Terminating Committed Purchaser outstanding on its Termination Date, divided by (ii) the Aggregate Capital outstanding on such Termination Date (the “Termination Percentage”). Each Terminating Committed Purchaser’s Termination Percentage shall remain constant prior to the Amortization Date. On and after the Amortization Date, each Termination Percentage shall be disregarded, and each Terminating Committed Purchaser’s Capital shall be reduced ratably with all Committed Purchasers in accordance with Section 2.3.

Section 2.3 Collections Following Amortization

On the Amortization Date and on each day thereafter, Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the holder of each Purchaser Interest, all Collections received on such day and an additional amount, from Seller’s assets, 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, Servicer shall, at any time upon the request from time to time by (or pursuant to standing instructions from) any Funding Agent (i) remit to an account designated by such Funding Agent the relevant portion of the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (ii) apply such relevant amounts to reduce the Capital associated with each such Purchaser Interest held by a Purchaser in the relevant Conduit Group and any other relevant Aggregate Unpaids.

Section 2.4 Application of Collections

If there shall be insufficient funds on deposit for Servicer to distribute funds in payment in full of the aforementioned amounts pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 (as applicable), Servicer shall distribute such funds:

first, to the payment of 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 Servicer,

second, to the reimbursement of the Agent’s costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

third, for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Obligations , provided that to the extent such Obligations relate to the payment of Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, when Seller or one of its Affiliates is acting as Servicer, such costs and expenses will not be paid until after the payment in full of all other Obligations,

fourth, (to the extent applicable) to the ratable reduction of the Aggregate Capital (without regard to any Termination Percentage) and

fifth, after the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Seller.

Collections applied to the payment of Aggregate Unpaids shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth in Section 2.4 above, shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent and the Purchasers in accordance with the amount of such Aggregate Unpaids owing to each of them in respect of each such priority.

Section 2.5 Payment Recission

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 the relevant Funding Agent (for application to the Person or Persons who suffered such recission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus the related Default Fee from the date of any such recission, return or refunding.

Section 2.6 Maximum Purchaser Interests

Seller shall ensure that the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers shall at no time exceed in the aggregate 100%. If the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers exceeds 100%, Seller shall pay to each Funding Agent within three (3) Business Days an amount to be applied to reduce its Conduit Group’s Reduction Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Capital, such that after giving effect to such payment the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests equals or is less than 100%.

Section 2.7 Clean Up Call

In addition to Seller’s rights pursuant to Section 1.3, Seller shall have the right (after providing written notice to the Funding Agents (with a copy thereof 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 100.0% of the original Purchase Limit, to repurchase 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 to the Funding Agents. 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.

ARTICLE III

CONDUIT FUNDING

Section 3.1 CP Costs

Seller shall pay the relevant CP Costs with respect to the Capital associated with each Purchaser Interest of each Conduit for each day that any Capital in respect of such Purchaser Interest is outstanding. Each Purchaser Interest funded substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper will accrue CP Costs each day on a pro rata basis, based upon the percentage share the Capital in respect of such Purchaser Interest represents in relation to all assets held by the relevant Conduit and funded substantially with its Pooled Commercial Paper.

Section 3.2 CP Costs Payments

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

Section 3.3 Calculation of CP Costs

On the tenth calendar day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, each Funding Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of the relevant CP Costs for the applicable Accrual Period and shall notify Seller of such aggregate amount.

ARTICLE IV

COMMITTED PURCHASER FUNDING

Section 4.1 Committed Purchaser Funding

Each Committed Purchaser Interest shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Prime Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Seller gives notice to the Agent of another Discount Rate in accordance with Section 4.4, the initial Discount Rate for any Committed Purchaser Interest shall be the Prime Rate. If any Funding Source acquires by assignment from a Conduit any Purchaser Interest pursuant to any Funding Agreement, each Purchaser Interest so assigned shall each be deemed to have a new Tranche Period commencing on the date of any such assignment and shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Prime Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof as if each such Purchaser Interest was held by a Committed Purchaser, and with respect to each such Purchaser Interest, the assignee thereof shall be deemed to be a Committed Purchaser solely for the purposes of Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5.

Section 4.2 Yield Payments

On the Settlement Date for each Committed Purchaser Interest , Seller shall pay to each Funding Agent (for the benefit of the Committed Purchasers in the relevant Conduit Group) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Yield for the entire Tranche Period of each such Purchaser Interest held by a Purchaser in such Conduit Group in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3 Selection and Continuation of Tranche Periods

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the relevant Funding Agent, Seller shall from time to time request Tranche Periods for the Committed Purchaser Interests in a Conduit Group, provided that, if at any time the Committed Purchasers shall have a Purchaser Interest, 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.

(b) Seller or the relevant 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, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Purchaser Interest into multiple Purchaser Interests, (ii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with one or more other Purchaser Interests that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche or (iii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with a new Purchaser Interests to be purchased on the day such Terminating Tranche ends, provided, that in no event may a Purchaser Interest of a Conduit be combined with a Committed Purchaser Interest or of another Conduit, and in no event may a Committed Purchaser Interest be combined with a Purchaser Interest of a Purchaser in a different Conduit Group.

Section 4.4 Committed Purchaser Discount Rates

Seller may select the LIBO Rate or the Prime Rate for each Committed Purchaser Interest. Seller shall by 12:00 p.m. (New York time): (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate is 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 Prime Rate is being requested as a new Discount Rate, give the relevant Funding Agent irrevocable notice of the new Discount Rate for the Purchaser Interest associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Seller gives notice to the relevant Funding Agent of another Discount Rate, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred to the Committed Purchasers pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof (or assigned or transferred to any Funding Source or to any other Person) shall be the Prime Rate.

Section 4.5 Suspension of the LIBO Rate

(a) If any Committed Purchaser notifies the relevant Funding Agent and the Agent that it has determined that funding its Pro Rata Share of the Committed Purchaser Interest 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 at such LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) such LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Purchaser Interest at such LIBO Rate, then the relevant Funding Agent shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require Seller to select the Prime Rate for any Purchaser Interest accruing Yield at such LIBO Rate.

(b) If less than all of the Committed Purchasers give a notice to the relevant Funding Agent pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Committed Purchaser which gave such a notice shall be obliged, at the request of Seller, a Conduit in the same Conduit Group or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (i) another Committed Purchaser in the same Conduit Group or (ii) another funding entity nominated by Seller or the Agent that is acceptable to such Conduit 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 and Yield owing to all of the Committed Purchasers in the same Conduit Group and all accrued 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 the same Conduit Group, and (ii) the replacement Committed Purchaser otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section 12.1(b).

Section 4.6 Extension of Liquidity Termination Date.

(a) Seller may request one or more 364-day extensions of the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect by giving written notice of such request to the Agent (each such notice an “Extension Notice”) at least 60 days prior to the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect. After the Agent’s receipt of any Extension Notice, the Agent shall promptly advise each Committed Purchaser of such Extension Notice. Each Committed Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, by a revocable notice (a “Consent Notice”) given to the Agent on or prior to the 30th day prior to the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect (such period from the date of the Extension Notice to such 30th day being referred to herein as the “Consent Period”), consent to such extension of such Liquidity Termination Date; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 4.6(b), such extension shall not be effective with respect to any of the Committed Purchasers if any one or more Committed Purchasers: (i) notifies the Agent during the Consent Period that such Committed Purchaser either does not wish to consent to such extension or wishes to revoke its prior Consent Notice or (ii) fails to respond to the Agent within the Consent Period (each Committed Purchaser that does not wish to consent to such extension or wishes to revoke its prior Consent Notice or fails to respond to the Agent within the Consent Period is herein referred to as a “Non-Renewing Committed Purchaser”). If none of the events described in the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii) occurs during the Consent Period and all Consent Notices have been received, then, the Liquidity Termination Date shall be irrevocably extended until the date that is 364 days after the Liquidity Termination Date then in effect. The Agent shall promptly notify Seller of any Consent Notice or other notice received by the Agent pursuant to this Section 4.6(a).

ARTICLE VIII

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

Section 8.1 Designation of Servicer

(a) The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person so designated as “Servicer” from time to time in accordance with this Section 8.1. Energizer Battery, Inc. is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Potential Amortization Event or an Amortization Event, the Agent may designate as Servicer any Person to succeed Energizer Battery, Inc. or any successor Servicer as “Servicer” hereunder. With the prior written consent of the Agent and upon the assumption of all of the duties and obligations of “Servicer” hereunder by a successor Servicer acceptable to the Agent, Energizer Battery, Inc. may resign as Servicer.

(b) In the ordinary course of business and with the prior consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Servicer may delegate any of its other duties or responsibilities as Servicer to any Person who agrees to conduct such duties or responsibilities in accordance with the Contracts, the Credit and Collection Policy and this Agreement. The Servicer may, from time to time, delegate all of Servicer’s duties and responsibilities as Servicer with respect to the Receivables purchased by Seller from Originator and which Originator has purchased from any Original Seller pursuant to the Transfer Agreement. Each Original Seller, as delegatee, shall agree, in form and substance acceptable to the Agent, to conduct such duties or responsibilities in accordance with the Contracts, the Credit and Collections Policy the Receivables Sale Agreement, the Transfer Agreement and this Agreement. The fees of any Person to whom such duties or responsibilities are delegated shall be for the sole account of Servicer. Any delegation shall not relieve Servicer of its duties, responsibilities or liabilities hereunder and shall not constitute a resignation under Section 8.1(a). Any Collections or other amounts due to the Agent or Purchasers hereunder held by any such delegate shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be treated as held by Servicer in trust for the holders of the Purchaser Interests. Each agreement by which Servicer delegates any of its duties or responsibilities to any other Person (including, without limitation, Seller) shall state that if at any time the Agent shall designate as Servicer any Person other than such delegating Servicer, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by such Servicer to such Person may, at the discretion of the Agent, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Agent to such delegating Servicer and such Person. If Servicer shall delegate any duties or responsibilities to Seller, Seller shall not be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of such duties or responsibilities.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) Servicer shall be and remain primarily liable to the Agent and the Purchasers for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Agent and the Purchasers shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Servicer in matters relating to the discharge by Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder. The Agent and the Purchasers shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Servicer in order for communication to Servicer and its sub-servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished. Servicer shall be responsible for providing any sub-servicer or other delegate of Servicer with any notice given to Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Duties of Servicer

(a) 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) Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account. Servicer shall effect a Collection Account Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit VI with each bank maintaining a Collection Account at any time. In the case of any remittances received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, 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 request that Servicer, and 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 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) Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. 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. Servicer shall, upon the request of the Agent, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agent, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of Servicer or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Agent such allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for the Purchasers on the first Business Day following receipt by Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(d) 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 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 or the Purchasers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) 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 at any time following a Potential Amortization Event, deliver or make available to the Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Agent. 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 and belonging to Seller. 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 Originator, any Original Seller or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law or unless otherwise permitted 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 during the continuance of a Potential Amortization Event, 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 to, following the delivery of the Collection Notices, (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.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Seller

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent and the Purchasers of their rights hereunder shall not release Servicer, Originator, any Original Seller 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

Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent and each Funding Agent (i) on the tenth day of each month and at such times as the Agent shall request, a Monthly Report and (ii) at such times as the Agent shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables and (iii) on the twenty-second day of each month and at such times as the Agent shall request, an Interim Report.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fees

In consideration of Energizer Battery, Inc.’s agreement to act as Servicer hereunder, the Purchasers hereby agree that, so long as Energizer Battery, Inc. shall continue to perform as Servicer hereunder, Seller shall pay over to Energizer Battery, Inc., as compensation for its servicing activities, a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on the first calendar day of each month, in arrears for the immediately preceding month, at such rate as Energizer Battery, Inc. and Seller shall agree upon from time to time on fair and reasonable basis and no less favorable to Energizer Battery, Inc. or Seller than a rate Energizer Battery, Inc. or Seller could obtain in an arm’s-length transaction for servicing with a Person other than Energizer Battery, Inc. or Seller.

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, each Funding Source and each Purchaser and their respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees (each an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all 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, such Funding Source 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) Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of Servicer’s activities as Servicer hereunder excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances under the preceding clauses (A) and (B):

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 each Indemnified Party for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to Seller or Servicer) relating to or resulting from:

(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, Servicer, Provider, Originator or any Original Seller in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

Section 10.2 Increased Cost and Reduced Return

If after April 4, 2000, any Funding Source shall be charged any fee, expense or increased cost on account of the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy), any accounting principles or any change in any of the foregoing, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), any governmental authority, any central bank or any 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 or agency (a “Regulatory Change”): (i) that subjects any Funding Source to any charge or withholding on or with respect to any Funding Agreement or a Funding Source’s obligations under a Funding Agreement, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Funding Source of any amounts payable under any Funding Agreement (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of a Funding Source or taxes excluded by Section 10.1) or (ii) that 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 a Funding Source, or credit extended by a Funding Source pursuant to a Funding Agreement or (iii) that imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to a Funding Source of performing its obligations under a Funding Agreement, or to reduce the rate of return on a Funding Source’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Funding Agreement, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Funding Source under a Funding 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 Agent, Seller shall pay to the relevant Funding Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Funding Source with respect to such Funding Agent’s Conduit Group, such amounts charged to such Funding Source or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Funding Source for such increased cost or such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, if the issuance of FASB Interpretation No. 46, or any other change in accounting standards or the issuance of any other pronouncement, release or interpretation, causes or requires the consolidation of all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of Company or Seller with the assets and liabilities of the Agent, any Committed Purchaser or any other Funding Source, such event shall constitute a circumstance on which such Funding Source may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section.

Section 10.3 Other Costs and Expenses

Seller shall pay to the Agent (in the case of costs and expenses incurred by the Agent) or the relevant Funding Agent (in the case of costs and expenses incurred by the Purchasers in the related Conduit Group) on demand any and all costs and expenses of the Agent and the Purchasers, 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.

However, if Other Costs are attributable to Other Sellers and not attributable to Seller, such Other Sellers shall be solely liable for such Other Costs. All allocations to be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Article X shall be made by the relevant Conduit in its sole discretion on a reasonable basis and shall be binding on Seller and Servicer.

Further, Seller, Servicer, the Agent and each Committed Purchaser hereby agree that any assignee of such 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 terms “WCMC,” “Gotham,” “Victory”, and/or “Conduit,” as applicable, explicitly referred to such party (provided that the Purchaser Interests of any such assignee shall accrue Yield pursuant to Section 4.1), and no such assignment shall in any way impair the rights and benefits of such Conduit hereunder. Neither Seller nor Servicer shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Any Committed Purchaser may at any time and from time to time assign to one or more Persons (“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 (the “Assignment Agreement”) executed by such Purchasing Committed Purchaser and such selling Committed Purchaser. The consent of each Conduit shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment; and, in the event of any such assignment by any Committed Purchaser, other than to an Affiliate of such Committed Purchaser, another Committed Purchaser or an Affiliate of another Committed Purchaser, the consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be required prior to the effectiveness of any such assignment.

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, each Conduit, the relevant Funding Agent 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).
