RECITALS

WHEREAS, Bank and Company have entered into that certain Back-Up Originator Revolving Loan Product Program Agreement of even date herewith (as modified and amended, the “Program Agreement”) pursuant to which, and effective as of the Program Start Date (as defined in the Program Agreement), Company will market and Bank will originate Accounts (as defined in the Program Agreement) to qualifying consumers identified by Company to enable consumers to purchase Company’s Merchandise; and

WHEREAS, Pursuant to the Program Agreement, the Company may cause the Existing Bank (as defined in the Program Agreement) to transfer, assign, and convey the Existing Accounts (as defined in the Program Agreement) from the Existing Bank to the Bank; and

WHEREAS, Bank desires to sell to the Company and the Company desires to purchase from the Bank the Fingerhut Receivables generated by the Bank pursuant to the Program Agreement, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals and the terms, conditions and mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Company agree as follows:

Definitions; Effectiveness of Certain Provisions.

	(a)		Definitions. The terms used in this Agreement shall be defined as set forth in Schedule 1 and this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the rules of construction set forth in Schedule 1.

	(b)		Effectiveness of Certain Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties’ respective obligations under Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement shall not be effective until the Program Start Date.

Purchase of Receivables; Payment to Bank; Reporting to Bank.

(a)

During the Term of this Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Bank hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets-over, and otherwise conveys to Company, without recourse and with servicing released, on each Closing Date, one hundred percent (100%) of the Receivables existing and arising under the Accounts and, as applicable, the Existing Accounts. All of the

			foregoing shall be in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2. In consideration for Bank’s agreement to sell, transfer, assign, set-over and convey to Company all Receivables existing and arising under the Accounts and, as applicable, the Existing Accounts during the Term of this Agreement, Company hereby purchases one hundred percent (100%) of such Receivables from Bank by paying Bank the Purchase Price on each Closing Date in accordance with subsection 2(b) below.

	(b)		Bank shall prepare and deliver to Company a Daily Purchase Statement, in a form to be agreed to by the Parties, by e-mail or as otherwise mutually agreed, no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on each Business Day, which sheet shall relate to the Receivables Bank is selling to Company on such Business Day consistent with subsection 2(a) of this Agreement. No later than 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the same Business Day that Bank provides the related Daily Purchase Statement to Company, Company shall effect payment to Bank of the Purchase Price calculated herein and as described on the applicable Daily Purchase Statement. The payment of the Purchase Price shall be made by wire or other transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Bank (the “Purchase Price Account”). Prior to the first Closing Date, Bank shall provide to Company the designated Purchase Price Account name and number. Failure to strictly adhere to the times referenced in this paragraph, provided that payment is made on the same Business Day, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

	(c)		In the event Company does not pay Bank the Purchase Price on any given Closing Date, in addition to any other remedies available to Bank under this Agreement and by law, Bank shall have the right to withdraw from the Collateral Account an amount equal to the Purchase Price and deposit such amount into the Purchase Price Account.

	(d)		To the extent that any Records pertaining to a purchased Receivable are in Bank’s possession, upon Company’s request, Bank agrees to cause such Records to be delivered to Company, at Company’s cost, on each applicable Closing Date.

Ownership of Receivables, Accounts, and Existing Accounts; Covenants of the Bank.

(a)

On and after each Closing Date, Company shall be the sole owner for all purposes (e.g., tax, accounting and legal) of the Receivables purchased from Bank on such date and Company shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges, and remedies applicable to said ownership interest, including, without limitation, the right to pledge, transfer, sell, assign, exchange, or collect and receive payments under the Receivables. Bank does not assume and shall not have any liability to Company for the repayment of any Receivables. Bank and Company each intend the transfer of the Receivables under this Agreement to be a true sale by Bank to Company that is absolute and irrevocable. At any time and from time to time, Bank will promptly and duly execute and deliver or will promptly cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as are reasonably requested by Company to confirm the sale of the

			Receivables and/or for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the UCC or other applicable state law in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the transfer of ownership of the Receivables. However, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, if a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the conveyance of the Receivables is not a true sale of the Receivables from Bank to Company, then (i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be and hereby is a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC, and (ii) the conveyance by Bank provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be, and Bank hereby grants to Company, a first priority security interest in and to all of Bank’s right, title, and interest in the Receivables to secure all obligations now or hereafter arising from Bank to Company. Bank also hereby authorizes Company to file any such financing or continuation statement with respect to such grant. Further, Bank will promptly and duly execute and deliver or will promptly cause to be executed or delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as are reasonably requested by Company to effect the servicing of the Accounts, the Existing Accounts, and Receivables. At any time and from time to time, Company will promptly and duly execute and deliver or will promptly cause to be executed or delivered, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as are reasonably requested by Bank for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement.

	(b)		During such time as Bank owns the Receivables related to the Accounts and, as applicable, the Existing Accounts, Company shall ensure that all refunds, adjustments, and credits provided by Company for Merchandise under its customer satisfaction policy, which are purchased via an extension of credit with respect to an Account or Existing Account, shall be disbursed to Bank within three (3) Business Days after the refund is made by Company. Bank hereby assigns to Company, with respect to each Receivable purchased pursuant to this Agreement, all of Bank’s rights to any such refunds, credits or adjustments and the interest accruing on each of such Receivables at the time of the sale of such Receivable to Company.

	(c)		Bank shall retain ownership of the Accounts and, as applicable, the Existing Accounts after each Closing Date. Company agrees to make entries on its books and records to clearly indicate the Bank’s ownership of the Accounts and Existing Accounts as of each Closing Date. Bank does not assume and shall not have any liability to Company or its assignees for the Borrower’s failure to make any payment under any Receivable; provided that the Bank shall make the payments, in respect of the Receivables received by it, as provided in Section 4(d)(iii) hereof. For avoidance of doubt, Bank shall not retain any ownership interest in any Closed-End Loan Accounts purchased by Company as a Receivable pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

	(d)		Bank hereby covenants that:

(i)

Bank will take no action to cause any Account, Existing Account, or

			Receivable to be evidenced by any “instrument” or “chattel paper” (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State). Bank will take all actions reasonably requested by Company for the purpose of ensuring that any Account or Existing Account not be anything other than an “account” or a “general intangible” or a “payment intangible” and/or any Receivable not be anything other than a “general intangible” or an “account” (as defined in the UCC as in effect in the Relevant UCC State) or under any revision to the law under the Relevant UCC State.

	(ii)		Except for the rights expressly granted to Company under the Program Documents, during the Term hereof, Bank will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, any Account, Existing Account, or any Receivable, or any interest therein.

	(iii)		If Bank receives or collects any funds in repayment of a Receivable sold to Company after the applicable Closing Date for such Receivable, Bank shall promptly send an e-mail notice of any such receipts to Company, and simultaneously send such funds by wire transfer (or other means as agreed to by Parties) to an account designated for this purpose by Company. Bank hereby agrees and acknowledges that any payments so collected by Bank shall be held in trust for Company and shall be delivered promptly to Company.

Confidentiality.

	(a)		Each Party agrees that Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall be used by each other Party (the “Restricted Party”) solely in the performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights pursuant to the Program Documents. Except as required by Applicable Laws or legal process, the Restricted Party shall not disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to third parties; provided, however, that the Restricted Party may disclose Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party (i) to the Restricted Party’s Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors for the sole purpose of fulfilling the Restricted Party’s obligations under this Agreement (as long as the Restricted Party exercises commercially reasonable efforts to prohibit any further disclosure by its Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors), provided that in all events, the Restricted Party shall be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder by any of its Affiliates, agents (other than Company as agent for Bank), representatives or subcontractors, (ii) to the Restricted Party’s auditors, accountants and other professional advisors, or to a Regulatory Authority, (iii) to the Administrative Agent, other lenders to Bluestem and Bluestem’s other financing sources, or (iv) to any other third party as mutually agreed by the Parties.

	(b)		A Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that:

	(1)		is generally available to the public;

	(2)		has become publicly known, without fault on the part of the Restricted Party, subsequent to the Restricted Party acquiring the information;

	(3)		was otherwise known by, or available to, the Restricted Party prior to April 28, 2008; or

	(4)		becomes available to the Restricted Party on a non-confidential basis from a Person, other than a Party to this Agreement, who is not known by the Restricted Party after reasonable inquiry to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Disclosing Party or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to the Restricted Party.

	(c)		Upon written request or upon the termination of this Agreement, each Restricted Party shall return to the Disclosing Party all Confidential Information in its possession that is in written form, including by way of example, but not limited to, reports, plans, and manuals; provided, however, that a Restricted Party may maintain in its possession all such Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party required to be maintained under Applicable Laws relating to the retention of records for the period of time required thereunder.

	(d)		In the event that a Restricted Party is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information of the other Party, the Restricted Party will provide the Disclosing Party with

prompt notice of such request(s) so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Restricted Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that the Disclosing Party does not seek such a protective order or other remedy, or such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Disclosing Party grants a waiver hereunder, the Restricted Party may furnish that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party which the Restricted Party is legally compelled to disclose and will exercise such efforts to obtain reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party so furnished as the Restricted Party would exercise in assuring the confidentiality of any of its own Confidential Information.

11.

Indemnification.

	(a)		Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Bank and its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, members, employees, representatives, shareholders, agents and attorneys of such entities (the “Bank Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, actions, liability, judgments, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (“Losses”) that may arise from Bank’s participation in the Fingerhut Program as contemplated by the Program Documents (including Losses arising from a violation of Applicable Law or a breach by Company or its agents or representatives of any of Company’s obligations or undertakings under the Program Documents and notwithstanding any materiality qualifier made in connection with any of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth herein), unless such Loss results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Bank.

	(b)		The Bank Indemnified Parties are sometimes referred to herein as the “Indemnified Parties,” and Company, as the indemnitor hereunder, is sometimes referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party.”

	(c)		Any Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party, in writing, of any notice of the assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any third party of any legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, or if the Indemnified Party determines the existence of any such claim or the commencement by any third party of any such legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, whether or not the same shall have been asserted or initiated, in any case with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is or may be obligated to provide indemnification (an “Indemnifiable Claim”), specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Loss, and, if known, the amount, or an estimate of the amount, of the Loss, provided that failure to promptly give such notice shall only limit the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the actual prejudice, if any, suffered by such Indemnifying Party as a result of such failure. The Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable thereafter information and documentation reasonably requested by such Indemnifying Party

to defend against the claim asserted.

	(d)		The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of any notification of an Indemnifiable Claim (a “Claim Notice”) to notify the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim and, through counsel of its own choosing, and at its own expense, to commence the settlement or defense thereof and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith if such cooperation is so requested and the request is reasonable; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall hold the Indemnified Party harmless from all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the Indemnified Party’s cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party assumes responsibility for the settlement or defense of any such claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate at its expense in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party (subject to the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that, in the event that both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are defendants in the proceeding and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably determined and notified the Indemnifying Party that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, then the fees and expenses of one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in the aggregate shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party; and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Indemnifiable Claim without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed for any reason if the settlement involves only the payment of money, and which consent may be withheld for any reason if the settlement involves more than the payment of money, including any admission by the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any such Indemnifiable Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle such claim without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) where such Indemnifiable Claim involves a Bank’s Regulatory Authority, Bank shall retain the right to control the settlement or defense thereof whether Bank is an Indemnifying Party or and Indemnified Party, and (ii) if Bank is the Indemnified Party, Bank shall be entitled to the Indemnifying Party’s cooperation and indemnification, including out-of-pocket expenses, and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by Bank.

	(e)		If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice that it elects to undertake the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim described therein, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to contest vigorously any such Indemnifiable Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party, to contest, settle or compromise the Indemnifiable Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided that the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party at least five (5) Business Days prior to any compromise or settlement of any such Indemnifiable Claim. No action taken by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this

Neither Party shall be entitled to assign or transfer any interest under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that Bank may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations arising hereunder to the surviving entity in a merger, sale, acquisition, or consolidation in which it participates.

Notwithstanding the prohibition on assignment in the second sentence of this Section 12, Bank hereby acknowledges and consents to (i) the sale, transfer and assignment by Company of all of its right, title and interest (but excluding all of Company’s obligations, including, without limitation, Company’s obligations under Section 34 hereof) in, to and under the Receivables, the Account Agreements and the Program Documents, whether now existing or hereafter acquired (the “Assigned Interests”), pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement (“RPA”), dated as of August 20, 2010 between Company and Fingerhut Receivables I, LLC (“Fingerhut Receivables LLC”), as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, or refinanced, restated or replaced (with the same or different financing sources), from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in connection with the Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) dated as of August 20, 2010 by and among ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank USA, as administrative agent (in such capacity, and including any successor thereto, the “Administrative Agent”), collateral agent (in such capacity, and including any successor thereto, the “Collateral Agent”), joint lead arranger, joint bookrunner, syndication agent and documentation agent and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities Inc., as joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, or refinanced, restated or replaced (with the same or different financing sources), from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the grant of a security interest by Fingerhut Receivables LLC of in all of its right, title and interest in the Assigned Interests to the Collateral Agent, and the enforcement of such security interest by the Collateral Agent, in each case pursuant to the Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) dated as of August 20, 2010 between Collateral Agent and Fingerhut Receivables LLC, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, or refinanced, restated or replaced (with the same or different financing sources), from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in exercising such rights in the Assigned Interests permitted by the RPA and the Security Agreement, neither Fingerhut Receivables LLC nor the Collateral Agent shall have any greater right, title and interest than Company’s right, title and interest in the Assigned Interests, and the Bank shall have any and all rights and defenses against Fingerhut Receivables LLC and the Collateral Agent as it would have had against the Company.

16.		Relationship of Parties. Bank and Company agree that in performing their responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, they are in the position of independent contractors. This Agreement is not intended to create, nor does it create and shall not be construed to create, a relationship of partner or joint venturer or any association for profit between and among Bank and Company.

17.		Retention of Records. Any Records with respect to Receivables purchased by Company pursuant hereto retained by Bank shall be held as custodian for the benefit of the account of Bank and Company as owners thereof. Bank shall provide copies of Records to Company upon reasonable request of Company.

18.		Force Majeure. If any Party shall be unable to carry out the whole or any part of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event, then the performance of such obligations under this Agreement of such Party as they are affected by such cause shall be excused during the continuance of the inability so caused, except that should such inability not be remedied within thirty (30) days after the date of such cause, either Party not so affected may at any time after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, during the continuance of such inability, terminate this Agreement on giving written notice to the other Party and without payment of a termination fee or other penalty. A “Force Majeure Event” as used in this Agreement shall mean an unanticipated event that is not reasonably within the control of the affected Party or its subcontractors (including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of governmental authorities, strikes, war, riot and any other causes of such nature), and which by exercise of reasonable due diligence, such affected Party or its subcontractors could not reasonably have been expected to avoid, overcome or obtain, or cause to be obtained, a commercially reasonable substitute therefor. No Party shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder if its failure of performance is due to removable or remediable causes which such Party fails to remove or remedy using commercially reasonable efforts within a reasonable time period. Either Party rendered unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event shall give prompt notice of such fact to the other

		Party, followed by written confirmation of notice, and shall exercise due diligence to remove such inability with all reasonable dispatch. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bank shall have the right to suspend payments of the Settlement Amounts due to Company (as required under Section 8(a) of the Program Agreement) during the period commencing with the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event resulting in Company’s monetary default, including its failure to maintain the Required Balance in the Collateral Account, and ending when such Force Majeure Event has been cured.

19.		Agreement Subject to Applicable Laws. If (a) either Party has been advised by legal counsel of a change in Applicable Laws or any judicial decision of a court having jurisdiction over a Party or any interpretation of a Regulatory Authority that, in the view of such legal counsel, would have a materially adverse effect on the rights or obligations of such Party under this Agreement or the financial condition of such Party, (b) either Party shall receive a request of any Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over such Party, including any letter or directive of any kind from any such Regulatory Authority, that prohibits or restricts such Party from carrying out its obligations under this Agreement, or (c) either Party has been advised by legal counsel that such Party’s or the other Party’s continued performance under this Agreement would violate Applicable Laws, then the affected Party shall provide written notice to the other Party of such advisement or request and the Parties shall meet and consider in good faith any modifications, changes or additions to the Fingerhut Program or the Program Documents that may be necessary to eliminate such result. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program Documents, including Section 9 hereof, if the Parties are unable to reach agreement regarding such modifications, changes or additions to the Fingerhut Program or the Program Documents within ten (10) Business Days after the Parties initially meet, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon five (5) days’ prior written notice to the other Party. A Party shall be able to suspend performance of its obligations under this Agreement, or require the other Party to suspend its performance of its obligations under this Agreement, upon providing the other Party with advance written notice, if any event described in subsection 19(a), (b) or (c) above occurs.

20.		Expenses. Each Party shall bear the costs and expenses of performing its obligations under this Agreement, unless expressly provided otherwise in the Program Documents. Each Party shall be responsible for payment of any federal, state, or local taxes or assessments associated with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. Company shall reimburse Bank for all third party bank fees incurred by Bank in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Within ten (10) days after receipt of notice, Company shall reimburse Bank for all of Bank’s closing costs and legal fees reasonably incurred in the due diligence, negotiation and drafting of the Program Documents. Within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Bank, Company shall reimburse Bank for the monthly costs associated with the transfer of funds from the Collateral Account to Company. Within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Bank, Company shall reimburse Bank for all of Bank’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses for any third-party professional services related to the Program, including the services of any third-party compliance specialists in connection with Bank’s preparation of policies and procedures and Bank’s review of the Program, including examinations, inspections, and audits made in accordance with the terms of the Program Documents.

21.		Examination. Each Party agrees to submit to any examination that may be required by a Regulatory Authority having jurisdiction over the other Party, during regular business hours and upon reasonable prior notice.

22.		Inspection; Reports. Each Party, upon reasonable prior notice from the other Party, agrees to submit to an inspection of its books, records, accounts, and facilities relevant to the Fingerhut Program, from time to time, during regular business hours subject, in the case of Bank, to the duty of confidentiality it owes to its customers and banking secrecy and confidentiality requirements otherwise applicable under Applicable Laws. Except as otherwise provided herein, all reasonable expenses of inspection shall be borne by the Party conducting the inspection. Notwithstanding the obligation of each Party to bear its own expenses of inspection, Company shall reimburse Bank for reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Bank in the performance of on-site reviews of Company’s financial condition, operations, internal controls, and other matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Program Agreement. Company shall store all documentation and electronic data related to its performance under this Agreement consistent with its existing document and data storage retention practices as of the date hereof and shall make such documentation and data available during any inspection by Bank or its designee. From time to time upon Bank’s request, Company shall report to Bank regarding the performance of its obligations, including the performance of its Account and Existing Accounts servicing obligations according to the service level standards.

23.		Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. Except as preempted or controlled by federal law, this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, without giving effect to the rules, policies, or principles thereof with respect to conflicts of laws. THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING HEREUNDER.

24.		Manner of Payments. Unless the manner of payment is expressly provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by either ACH or wire transfer to the bank accounts designated by the respective Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Party shall be excused from making any payment required of it under this Agreement as a result of a breach or alleged breach by the other Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other agreement, provided that the making of any payment hereunder shall not constitute a waiver by the Party making the payment of any rights it may have under the Program Documents or by law.

25.		Brokers. Neither Party has agreed to pay any fee or commission to any agent, broker, finder, or other person for or on account of services rendered as a broker or finder in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that would give rise to any valid claim against the other Party for any brokerage commission or finder’s fee or like payment.

26.		Entire Agreement. The Program Documents, including exhibits, constitute the entire

		agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter thereof, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous negotiations or oral or written agreements with regard to the same subject matter.

27.		Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended orally, but only by a written instrument signed by all Parties. The failure of any Party to require the performance of any term of this Agreement or the waiver by any Party of any default under this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent enforcement of such term and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. All waivers must be in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be enforced.

28.		Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining portions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering such provision or any other provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any other jurisdiction.

29.		Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge that each Party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments thereto, and the same shall be construed neither for nor against either Party, but shall be given a reasonable interpretation in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and the intent of the Parties.

30.		Jurisdiction; Venue. The Parties consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts in Salt Lake City, Utah for any court action or proceeding.

31.		Headings. Captions and headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be deemed part of this Agreement.

32.		Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by the Parties in any number of counterparts, and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which counterpart shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

33.		Waiver. Bank agrees that notwithstanding any claim, counterclaim, right of setoff or defense which it may have against Company due to a breach by Company of this Agreement or the Program Agreement, or for any other reason, and notwithstanding the bankruptcy or insolvency of Company or any other event whatsoever, in no event shall Bank assert any interest in any Receivable for which the Purchase Price for such Receivable has been paid to Bank or take any action which would reduce or delay receipt of any payment made by a Borrower with respect thereto.

34.		Collateral Account.

(a)

Establishment of Collateral Account. On the Program Start Date, Company shall provide Bank with [*] as cash collateral

[*]

Indicates confidential portions omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission

			for Company’s obligations under this Agreement (the “Minimum Collateral Deposit Amount”). Bank shall deposit such amount in a deposit account (“Collateral Account”) at Bank. The Collateral Account shall be a segregated deposit account that shall hold only the funds provided by Company to Bank as collateral. At all times after the Program Start Date, Company shall maintain funds in the Collateral Account equal to the sum of: (x) Minimum Collateral Deposit Amount; and (y) one hundred percent (100%) of the average daily (calculated on Business Days) outstanding principal balance of Receivables owned by Bank during the preceding calendar month (the “Required Balance”). The Required Balance shall be calculated monthly as of the first Business Day of each month during the Term. In the event the actual balance in the Collateral Account is less than the Required Balance, Company shall, within one (1) Business Day of such deficiency, make a payment into the Collateral Account in an amount equal to the difference between the Required Balance and the actual balance in such account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon no less than three (3) Business Days notice to Company, Bank shall have the right to change the calculation period for determining the Required Balance from monthly to weekly. In the event the actual balance in the Collateral Account is more than the Required Balance, Bank shall, within one (1) Business Day, make a payment to Company in an amount equal to the difference between the Required Balance and the actual balance in such account.

	(b)		Security Interest. To secure Company’s obligations under this Agreement, Company hereby grants Bank a security interest in the Collateral Account and the funds therein or proceeds thereof, and agrees to take such steps as Bank may reasonably require to perfect or protect such first priority security interest. Bank shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under Applicable Laws with respect to the Collateral Account and the funds therein or proceeds thereof, and shall be entitled to exercise those rights and remedies in its discretion.

	(c)		Withdrawals.

	(1)		Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Bank under this Agreement, Bank shall have the right to withdraw amounts from the Collateral Account to fulfill any monetary obligations of Company arising under this Agreement or the Program Agreement (including but not limited to purchasing Receivables, payment of fees and legal expenses, reimbursement of costs, and indemnification) on which Company has defaulted in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, either during the Term or following termination of either of the aforementioned agreements.

	(2)		Except as otherwise provided herein, Company shall not have any right to withdraw amounts from the Collateral Account. On the last Friday of each month, provided that if a Friday is not a Business Day, then on the next Business Day, at Company’s option, Company may provide to Bank a report setting forth a calculation for the Required Balance and the extent to which the actual amount held in the Collateral Account at such time

			exceeds the Required Balance. Within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such a report from Company, Bank shall withdraw from the Collateral Account any amount held therein that exceeds the Required Balance as of the date of such report and pay such amount to an account designated by Company.

	(3)		Termination of Collateral Account. Bank shall release any funds remaining in the Collateral Account within thirty (30) Business Days after the latest to occur of: (i) termination of this Agreement; (ii) the end of the period described in Section 13(e) of the Program Agreement; or (iii) the date when obligations of Company under the Program Documents have been satisfied in full by Company.

35.		Survival. All representations, warranties, covenants, guaranties and indemnifications contained in this Agreement, including without limitation Section(s) 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 30, 33, 34, and 35 shall survive the sale, transfer, assignment, set-over, and conveyance of the Receivables and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

36.		Charged-Off Accounts. Bank shall transfer, assign, set-over, and otherwise convey to Company, for no fee, all Accounts and Existing Accounts opened or acquired pursuant to the Fingerhut Program that have been charged-off by Bank in accordance with Bank’s policies and procedures regarding charge-offs.
