CONTRIBUTION

Section 2.1.            Contribution on the Closing Date.

(a)           Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Contributor hereby irrevocably contributes, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to Contributee, without recourse (except as set forth in Section 4.4), and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Contributee acquires, accepts and receives as a capital contribution from Contributor, all right, title and interest of Contributor in the Contributed Assets (each of the transactions described in this Section 2.1, a “Contribution” with “Contribute” and “Contributed” having meanings correlative thereto).  Contributor hereby relinquishes all legal and equitable interests in the Contributed Assets upon the Closing Date.

(b)           Contributor may, from time to time, elect to Contribute additional Contributed Assets.  Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Contributee shall acquire, accept and receive as a capital contribution from Contributor, all right, title and interest of Contributor in any additional Contributed Assets.  Contributor hereby relinquishes all legal and equitable interests in the additional Contributed Assets upon each Contribution Date.  On each Contribution Date, Schedule 1 hereto shall be amended by adding any additional Contributed Assets as of such Contribution Date.

(c)           Effective from and after the Contributions, Contributee hereby assumes from Contributor and agrees to perform all continuing obligations (then existing or thereafter arising) of Contributor under the Contributed Assets. The Contributed Assets transferred hereby will be held by Contributee free and clear of any lien or encumbrance of any Person claiming through or under Contributor. Contributor hereby agrees to protect and defend Contributee’s ownership interest and other rights in the Contributed Assets against any claim arising from the prior ownership of Contributor or any of its predecessors-in-interest.

3

Section 2.2.            Further Assurances.

(a)           Contributor shall from time to time, execute and deliver such documents, instruments, agreements, financing statements, and shall take all such other actions as are reasonably requested by Contributee or its assignees or the Administrative Agent from time to time hereafter that may be reasonably necessary, appropriate or desirable to ensure that Contributee and its assignees have an enforceable ownership interest or, solely if Section 2.3(b) hereof is applicable, an enforceable and perfected security interest, in each case in the Contributed Assets (as applicable).

Section 2.3.            Intent; Savings Clause.

(a)           This Agreement is intended to effect an absolute, irrevocable transfer, conveyance, assignment and contribution, without recourse (except as set forth in Section 4.4) of the Contributed Assets by Contributor to Contributee, and immediately after giving effect to the transfer contemplated by Section 2.1(a) on the Closing Date or Section 2.1(b) on any Contribution Date, Contributor will have no further interest (legal or equitable) in the Contributed Assets and the Contributed Assets will not be property of Contributor’s estate in the event of a bankruptcy of Contributor and Contributee shall have the absolute right to take whatever action it may deem appropriate with respect to any Contributed Asset.  The parties agree to treat each transfer pursuant to Section 2.1 for all purposes (including financial accounting purposes) as an absolute transfer on all relevant books, records, financial statements and other documents.

(b)           If, notwithstanding Section 2.3(a), the transfer of the Contributed Assets on any Contribution Date pursuant to this Agreement is recharacterized by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise as a collateral transfer for security or as a financing transaction (a “Recharacterization Event”), Contributor intends that Contributee have a first priority perfected security interest in, and a lien on, the Contributed Assets to secure an obligation of Contributor to Contributee in an amount equal to the aggregate face value of the Contributed Assets plus accrued interest.

(c)           Accordingly, if a Recharacterization Event occurs, Contributor shall be deemed to have granted, and Contributor does hereby grant, to Contributee a security interest in all of Contributor’s right title and interest in, to, and under the Contributed Assets, all books and records related thereto and the income and any proceeds resulting therefrom, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement for such purpose.

(d)           If a Recharacterization Event occurs, Contributee will have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (including the rights of a secured party obtaining a lien under Section 9-608 of the UCC) and Contributor will have all the rights of a debtor granting a lien under the UCC (including the rights of a debtor granting a lien under Section 9-623).

(e)           For purposes of complying with the requirements of the Asset-Backed Securities Facilitation Act of the State of Delaware, 6 Del. C. § 2701A, et seq. (the

4

“Securitization Act”), each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, including but not limited to, Section 9-623 of the UCC:

(i)            Any property, assets or rights purported to be transferred, in whole or in part, by Contributor pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to no longer be the property, assets or rights of Contributor;

(ii)           None of Contributor, its respective creditors or, in any insolvency proceeding with respect to Contributor or Contributor’s property, a bankruptcy trustee, receiver, debtor, debtor in possession or similar person, to the extent the issue is governed by Delaware law, shall have any rights, legal or equitable, whatsoever to reacquire, reclaim, recover, repudiate, disaffirm, redeem or recharacterize as property of Contributor any property, assets or rights purported to be transferred, in whole or in part, by Contributor pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii)          In the event of a bankruptcy, receivership or other insolvency proceeding with respect to any Contributor or any Contributor’s property, to the extent the issue is governed by Delaware law, such property, assets and rights shall not be deemed to be part of such Contributor’s property, assets, rights or estate; and

(iv)          The transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the LLC Agreement and the Credit Agreement constitute a “securitization transaction” as such term is used in the Securitization Act.

Section 2.4.            Subsequent Transfer; Acknowledgment and Agreement of Contributee.

(a)           Contributor acknowledges and agrees that, as of each Contribution Date, (i) Contributee will pledge the Contributed Assets and its rights under this Agreement in the manner contemplated under the Credit Documents and (ii) the representations, warranties, covenants and indemnifications contained in this Agreement and the rights of Contributee under this Agreement are intended to benefit the Administrative Agent.

(b)           Contributor hereby consents to the pledges to occur on any Contribution Date which are described in the foregoing clause (a).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that Administrative Agent is and will be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with full right, power and authority to exercise Contributee’s rights and remedies and enforce Contributor’s obligations under this Agreement, in each case subject to and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Section 2.5.            Authorization to File Financing Statements.

Contributor hereby authorizes the filing of any financing statements or continuation statements, and amendments to financing statements, in any jurisdictions and with any filing

5

offices as Contributee (with notice to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of amendments, with the consent of the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interest granted to Contributee pursuant to Section 2.3, and to perfect the conveyance of the Contributed Assets pursuant to the Contribution.  Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described in this Agreement or in any other security agreement, assignment, transfer document or pledge agreement entered into by the parties in connection herewith.
