(ii)                                  all Related Security with respect to the Receivables referred to in clause (i) above; and

3

(iii)                               all income and Proceeds of the foregoing.

(b)                                 Either the Sellers, on the one hand, or the Buyer, on the other hand, may, in their respective sole discretion at any time after March 30, 2009 terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to the non-terminating party (i.e., the Sellers or the Buyer, as the case may be) not less than 30 days prior to the Termination Effective Date.

(c)                                  The applicable Seller shall, on or prior to each Purchase Date, execute and deliver to the Buyer a certificate of assignment (the “Sale Assignment”) in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

(d)                                 Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and purchase of Sale Assets under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Sellers; however, it being understood that the applicable Seller shall be liable to the Buyer for all representations, warranties and covenants made by such Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(e)                                  The Buyer, the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Guarantor, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian shall not have any obligation or liability to any Obligor (including any obligation to perform any of the obligations of the Sellers (including any obligation with respect to any other related agreements)). No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the Buyer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Guarantor, the Backup Servicer or the Collateral Custodian, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed.

(f)                                    In connection with each Purchase of Sale Assets hereunder (other than the initial Purchase), the applicable Seller shall have delivered the Required Receivable File to the Collateral Custodian, no later than 2:00 p.m. (I) two (2) Business Days prior to the related Funding Date with respect to Receivables acquired from “Sellers” (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) of Receivables included in the Sale Assets on a prior Purchase Date and (II) five (5) Business Days prior to the related Purchase Date with respect to all other Receivables acquired from “Sellers” (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) of Receivables not previously included in the Sale Assets.

(g)                                 It is the intention of the parties hereto that the conveyances of all right, title and interest of the applicable Seller in and to any Sale Assets to the Buyer as provided in this Section 2.1 shall constitute absolute transfers conveying good title, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) and that the Sale Assets shall not be part of the bankruptcy estate of such Seller in the event of an Insolvency Event with respect to such Seller. Furthermore, it is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Receivables and the other Sale Assets to the Buyer to secure a debt or other obligation of the applicable Seller. If, however, notwithstanding the intention of the parties, any conveyance provided for in this Section 2.1 is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be a transfer for security (an “Inconsistent Determination”), then this Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC and the applicable Seller hereby grants to the Buyer a “security interest” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the related Sale Assets, now existing and hereafter created, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of such Sale Assets together with all of the other

4

obligations of such Seller hereunder. The Buyer shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other Applicable Law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. In connection herewith, the Buyer shall be permitted to file (at its own expense) protective UCC financing statements necessary for the Buyer to have a perfected security interest in the Sale Assets in the event of an Inconsistent Determination (each a “Protective Filing”). Furthermore, automatically upon an Inconsistent Determination and without any further action by the applicable Seller or the Buyer, or any amendment to this Agreement being required, each representation or warranty by such Seller attesting as to the valid conveyance of Sale Assets shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that such Seller has granted the Buyer a valid and continuing security interest in the Sale Assets, free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Liens).

Section 2.2.           Purchase Price.

The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for each item of Sale Assets sold to the Buyer by a Seller under this Agreement shall be a dollar amount equal to the purchase price paid by such Seller for the applicable Receivables under such Seller’s Sale Agreement, in each case to be paid in accordance with Section 2.3.

Section 2.3.           Payment of Purchase Price.

(a)                                  The Purchase Price for any Sale Assets sold by a Seller to the Buyer on any Purchase Date shall be paid in a combination of (i) immediately available funds and (ii) if the Buyer lacks sufficient funds to pay the full amount of such Purchase Price (after taking into account the proceeds the Buyer expects to receive pursuant to the Credit Agreement), cash paid by CLST Asset II, LLC or other members of the Buyer in connection with a capital contribution by such member(s) to the Buyer.

(b)                                 The applicable Seller, in connection with each delivery of a Sale Assignment hereunder relating to any Sale Assets, shall be deemed to have certified, with respect to such Sale Assets, that its representations and warranties contained in Article IV are true and correct in all material respects as of the related Purchase Date (except to the extent such representations and warranties relate to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).

(c)                                  Upon the payment of the Purchase Price for any Purchase, title to the Sale Assets included in such Purchase shall rest in the Buyer, whether or not the conditions precedent to such Purchase and the other covenants and agreements contained herein were in fact satisfied; provided that the Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any claim it may have under this Agreement for the failure by the applicable Seller in fact to satisfy any such condition precedent, covenant or agreement.

Section 8.15.        Assignment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement may not be assigned by the Buyer or a Seller except as permitted by this Section 8.15 or by the Credit Agreement.  Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Buyer will, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, assign all of its right, title and interest in this Agreement to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Secured Parties, to which assignment each Seller hereby expressly consents.  Upon assignment, each Seller agrees to perform its obligations hereunder for the benefit of the Administrative Agent as agent for the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, shall be a third party beneficiary hereof.  The Administrative Agent as agent for the Secured Parties upon such assignment may enforce the provisions of this Agreement, exercise the rights of the Buyer and enforce the obligations of each Seller hereunder without joinder of the Buyer.

Section 8.16.        No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Buyer or a Seller, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exhaustive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.  Any waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 8.17.        Subordination.

Each Seller shall have the right to receive, and the Buyer shall make, any and all payments relating to any indebtedness, obligation or claim such Seller may from time to time hold or otherwise have against the Buyer or any assets or properties of the Buyer, whether arising hereunder or otherwise existing; provided that after giving effect to any such payment, there may not be a Borrowing Base Deficiency.  Each Seller hereby agrees that at any time during which the condition set forth in the proviso of the preceding sentence shall not be satisfied, such Seller shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment of any indebtedness or obligation of the Buyer owing to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under the Credit Agreement.

Section 8.18.        Survival of Certain Provisions.

Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, each Seller’s representations, covenants and obligations set forth in Articles IV, V, VI, and VII create and constitute the continuing obligation of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Collection Date; provided that the rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made or deemed made by each Seller pursuant to Articles III and IV, and the provisions of Sections 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9 and 8.14 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
