ARTICLE II.

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF ADVANCES

Section 2.01. Advances.

(a) Revolving Credit Advances. (i) From and after the Effective Date and until the Commitment Termination Date and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) severally agrees to make its Pro Rata Share of (i) Tranche A advances (each such advance hereunder, a “Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance”) and (ii) Tranche B advances (each such advance hereunder, a “Tranche B Revolving Credit Advance” and together with the Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances, the “Revolving Credit Advances”) to the Borrower from time to time. The Outstanding Principal Amount of all Advances shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (x) the Aggregate Commitment and (y) the sum of the Tranche A Borrowing Base and the Tranche B Borrowing Base. The Outstanding Principal Amount of Revolving Credit Advances made by each Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. The Outstanding Principal Amount of all Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances shall not at any time exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base. The Outstanding Principal Amount of Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances made by each Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A Borrowing Base. The Outstanding Principal Amount of all Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances shall not at any time exceed the Tranche B Borrowing Base. The Outstanding Principal Amount of Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances made by each Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Tranche B Borrowing Base. Except to the extent provided in Section 2.06(c), no Lender shall make any Revolving Credit Advances if, after giving effect thereto, a Funding Excess would exist. The Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Credit Advances hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(ii) The Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) that makes a request therefor, (a) a note to evidence the Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances which may be made hereunder from time to time by such Lender and (b) a note to evidence the Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances which may be made hereunder from time to time by such Lender. Each such note shall be (x) in the principal amount of the applicable Commitment of the applicable Lender, (y) dated as of the date of issuance thereof, and (z) substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.01(a)(ii)-A (each, a “Tranche A Revolving Note”) or Exhibit 2.01(a)(ii)-B (each, a “Tranche B Revolving Note”). Each Tranche A Revolving Note shall represent the obligation of the Borrower to pay the amount of each Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of all outstanding Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances made to the Borrower, together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.06. Each Tranche B Revolving Note shall represent the obligation of the Borrower to pay the amount of the applicable Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of all outstanding Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances made to the Borrower, together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.06. The Outstanding Principal Amount of Revolving Credit Advances and all other accrued and unpaid Borrower Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(b) Swing Line Advances. (i) From and after the Effective Date and until the Commitment Termination Date and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make advances (each such advance hereunder, a “Swing Line Advance”) to the Borrower from time to time. The aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loan shall not at any time exceed the Swing Line Commitment. Under no circumstances shall the Swing Line Lender make a Swing Line Advance if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loan would exceed the Swing Line Commitment. The Swing Line Lender shall not make any Swing Line Advance, if after giving effect thereto, a Tranche A Funding Excess would exist. The Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Advances hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received at least one Business Day’s prior written notice from the Lenders instructing it not to make a Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall, notwithstanding the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 3.01 or 3.02, be entitled to fund such Swing Line Advance, and to have the Lenders make Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iii) or purchase participating interests in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iv). The Borrower shall repay the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loan in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date.

(ii) The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Swing Line Lender a note to evidence the Swing Line Loan. Such note shall be in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.01(b)(ii) (the “Swing Line Note”). The Swing Line Note shall represent the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Swing Line Loan, together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 2.06. The Swing Line Loan and all other accrued and unpaid Borrower Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date.

(iii) The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time no less frequently than once per month, shall on behalf of the Borrower (and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so act on its behalf) request each Lender (excluding the Swing Line Lender) to make a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance to the Borrower in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the Swing Line Loan (the “Refunded Swing Line Loan”) outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless the Commitment Termination Date has occurred (in which event the procedures of subsection (iv) below shall apply) and regardless of whether the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 to the making of a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance are then satisfied, each Lender shall disburse directly to the Administrative Agent, its Pro Rata Share of a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance on behalf of the Swing Line Lender, prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time), in immediately available funds on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which such notice is given; provided that (i) no Lender shall be required to make such a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance if the Swing Line Advance to be financed was made in violation of the fourth sentence of Section 2.01(b)(i) and the Tranche A Funding Excess resulting therefrom has not yet been cured, (ii) no Lender shall be required to make such a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance if, after giving effect to such Tranche A

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Revolving Credit Advance, the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances made by such Lender would exceed such Lender’s Commitment and (iii) no Lender shall be required to make such a Revolving Credit Advance after the Final Advance Date. The proceeds of such Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances shall be immediately paid to the Swing Line Lender and applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loan.

(iv) If, prior to refunding a Swing Line Loan with a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(iii), the Commitment Termination Date or one of the events described in Sections 8.01(d) or (e) has occurred, then, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01(b)(v) below, each Lender shall, on the date such Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance was to have been made for the benefit of the Borrower, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participation interest in the Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan. Upon request by the Swing Line Lender, each Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation interest.

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iii) and to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iv) shall, except to the extent described in the proviso set forth in the second to last sentence of Section 2.01(b)(iii), be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event; (C) any inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time; or (D) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount required pursuant to Sections 2.01(b)(iii) or (b)(iv), as the case may be, the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Rate for the first two Business Days and at the Index Rate thereafter.

Section 2.02. Optional Changes in Aggregate Commitment.

(a) So long as no Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may, not more than twice during each calendar year, reduce the Aggregate Commitment permanently; provided, that (i) the Borrower shall give ten Business Days’ prior written notice of any such reduction to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.02(a) (each such notice, a “Commitment Reduction Notice”), (ii) any partial reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess of $10,000,000 and (iii) no such

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

partial reduction shall reduce the Aggregate Commitment below the greater of (x) the Outstanding Principal Amount at such time and (y) $50,000,000. Any such reduction in the Aggregate Commitment shall result in (i) a reduction in each Lender’s Commitment in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which the Aggregate Commitment is being reduced and (ii) a proportional reduction in the L/C Sublimit, the Swing Line Commitment and the Tranche B Sublimit; provided, however, that no such partial reduction shall reduce the L/C Sublimit below the aggregate outstanding amount of Letter of Credit Obligations or reduce the Swing Line Commitment below the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loan.

(b) The Borrower may, at any time, on at least 30 days’ prior written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, irrevocably terminate the Aggregate Commitment; provided, that (i) such notice of termination shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.02(b) (the “Commitment Termination Notice”) and (ii) the Borrower shall reduce the aggregate outstanding amount of Advances to zero, cash collateralize or provide a back-up letter of credit with respect to all Letter of Credit Obligations in accordance with Section 2.11, and make all payments required by Section 2.03(h) at the time and in the manner specified therein. Upon such termination, the Borrower’s right to request that (1) any Lender make Revolving Credit Advances or incur Letter of Credit Obligations or (2) the Swing Line Lender make Swing Line Advances hereunder, shall in each case simultaneously terminate and the Commitment Termination Date shall automatically occur.

(c) Each written notice required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 2.02(a) and (b) shall be irrevocable and shall be effective (i) on the day of receipt if received by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day and (ii) on the immediately succeeding Business Day if received by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders after such time on such Business Day or if any such notice is received on a day other than a Business Day (regardless of the time of day such notice is received). Each such notice of termination or reduction shall specify, respectively, the amount of, or the amount of the proposed reduction in, the Aggregate Commitment.

Section 2.03. Procedures for Making Advances.

(a) Borrowing Requests. Except as provided in Sections 2.06(c) and 2.11(b)(ii), each Borrowing shall be made upon notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in the manner provided herein. Any such notice must be given in writing so that it is received no later than (1) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Advance Date set forth therein. Each Borrowing requested pursuant to a Borrowing Request shall be (a) in the form of a Swing Line Advance until such Swing Line Advance is refunded or otherwise refinanced in accordance with Section 2.01(b)(iii) or (b)(iv) or (b) in the form of Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances. Each request for a Borrowing (a “Borrowing Request”) shall (i) be substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.03(a), (ii) be irrevocable and (iii) specify the amount of the requested Borrowing (which shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000) and the proposed Advance Date (which shall be a Business Day), and shall include such other information as may be required by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. The

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Administrative Agent shall review the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered in connection with each Borrowing Request to confirm whether a Funding Excess exists or would exist after giving effect to the Borrowing requested in the related Borrowing Request. If, in connection with such review, the Administrative Agent determines that a Funding Excess exists or would exist after giving effect to the Borrowing requested in the related Borrowing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Unless a LIBOR Rate Disruption Event shall have occurred, each Advance shall be a LIBOR Rate Advance.

(b) Advances; Payments.

(i) (A) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receipt of a Borrowing Request and in any event prior to 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date such Borrowing Request is deemed received, by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of communication notify (i) the Swing Line Lender of its receipt of a Borrowing Request relating to a request for Swing Line Advances or (ii) the Lenders of its receipt of a Borrowing Request relating to a request for Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances, and (B) (i) the Swing Line Lender (in the case of Swing Line Advance) or (ii) the Lenders (in the case of Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances) shall make the amount of such Swing Line Advance or Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances, as applicable, available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent’s account as set forth in Annex W not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested Advance Date. After receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion in accordance with Section 2.03(c), before receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof (including, without limitation, the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02), the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Borrower by deposit into the Borrower Account (or, in the case of Revolving Credit Advances made pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii), shall apply in accordance with such Section) on the Advance Date therefor, the lesser of (x) the amount of the requested Borrowing and (y) (i) in the case of any requested Swing Line Advance, the amount of Tranche A Funding Availability and (ii) in the case of any requested Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances, the amount of Tranche B Funding Availability. All payments by each Lender under this Section 2.03(b)(i) shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(ii) On each Interest Payment Date, the Administrative Agent will advise each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) by telephone or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees (to the extent payable to all Lenders) paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Revolving Credit Advance. Provided that such Lender has made all payments required to be made by it and purchased all participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Related Documents as of such Interest Payment Date, the Administrative Agent will pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees (to the extent payable to all Lenders) with respect to each applicable Revolving Credit Advance, paid by the Borrower since the previous Interest Payment Date for the benefit of that Lender. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in Annex W or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on each Interest Payment Date.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(iii) On each Interest Payment Date, the Administrative Agent will advise the Swing Line Lender of the amount of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender with respect to the Swing Line Loan. The Administrative Agent will pay to the Swing Line Lender the amount of principal, interest and Fees paid by the Borrower since the previous Interest Payment Date for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer or by book balance to the Swing Line Lender’s account (as specified by the Swing Line Lender in Annex W or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on each Interest Payment Date.

(c) Availability of Lenders’ Advances. The Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) will make its Pro Rata Share of each Borrowing of Revolving Credit Advances available to the Administrative Agent on each Advance Date. If the Administrative Agent has made available to the Borrower such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such Borrowing but such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to the Administrative Agent by such Lender when due, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately repay such amount to the Administrative Agent. Nothing in this Section 2.03(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Related Documents shall be deemed to require the Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. To the extent that the Administrative Agent advances funds to the Borrower on behalf of any Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Revolving Credit Advance is made, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such Revolving Credit Advance from the date of such Revolving Credit Advance to the date such Revolving Credit Advance is reimbursed by the applicable Lender.

(d) Return of Payments. (i) If the Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and such related payment is not received by the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(ii) If at any time any amount received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement must be returned to the Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Related Document, the Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Lender will repay to the Administrative Agent on demand any portion of such amount that the Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as the Administrative Agent is required to pay to the Borrower or such other Person, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(e) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Lender (each such Lender, a “Non-Funding Lender”) to make any Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it, but neither any Other Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such Non-Funding Lender. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Related Document or constitute a “Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Requisite Lenders” hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Related Document unless and until such Non-Funding Lender shall have cured in full its failures to make Revolving Credit Advances hereunder.

(f) Dissemination of Information. The Administrative Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with (i) copies of all notices and other documents provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.02, (ii) any notice of an Incipient Termination Event or Termination Event received by the Administrative Agent from, or delivered by the Administrative Agent to, the Borrower, (iii) notice of any Termination Event of which the Administrative Agent has actually become aware and (iv) notice of any action taken by the Administrative Agent following any Termination Event; provided, however, that, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so.

(g) Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement, the Tranche A Revolving Notes, the Tranche B Revolving Notes or the Swing Line Note (including exercising any rights of set-off) without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of the Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement, the Tranche A Revolving Notes, the Tranche B Revolving Notes and the Swing Line Note shall, subject to any provision herein requiring that each Lender consent to a particular action, be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders.

(h) Principal Repayments. The Borrower may at any time repay outstanding Advances hereunder; provided that (i) the Borrower shall give not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice of any such repayment to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.03(h) (each such notice, a “Repayment Notice”), (ii) each such notice shall be irrevocable, (iii) each such notice shall specify the amount of the requested repayment and the proposed date of such repayment (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) any such repayment shall be applied first to the Swing Line Loan until the Outstanding Principal Amount thereof has been

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

reduced to zero, and second to the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances (provided, that if a Funding Excess exists and any outstanding Swing Line Advances were made in violation of the fourth sentence of Section 2.01(b)(i) or were funded after the Commitment Termination Date, then such Swing Line Advance will be repaid after the Revolving Credit Advances) and (v) any such repayment must be accompanied by payment of all interest accrued and unpaid on the portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Advances to be repaid through but excluding the date of such repayment. Any such notice of repayment must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of the proposed repayment; provided, further, that the foregoing requirements shall not apply to repayment of the outstanding principal amount of Advances as a result of the application of Collections pursuant to Section 2.08.

Section 2.04. Pledge and Release of Transferred Receivables.

(a) Pledge. The Borrower shall indicate in its Records that the Transferred Receivables have been pledged hereunder and that the Administrative Agent has a lien on and security interest in all such Transferred Receivables for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Servicer to, hold all Contracts and other documents relating to such Transferred Receivables in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties in accordance with their interests hereunder.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(h) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made in accordance with this Section 2.08 without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, Charges or withholdings, excluding taxes imposed on or measured by the net income, gross receipts or franchise taxes of any Affected Party by the jurisdictions under the laws of which such Affected Party is organized or by any political subdivisions thereof (such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, Charges and withholdings being “Indemnified Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.08) the Affected Party entitled to receive any such payment receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

Section 2.09. Capital Requirements; Additional Costs.

(a) If any Affected Party shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of or any change in, or any change in the administration or interpretation of, any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by such Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Affected Party against commitments made by it under this Agreement or any other Related Document and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Affected Party’s capital as a consequence of its commitments hereunder or thereunder, then the Borrower shall from time to time upon demand by the Administrative Agent pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Affected Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Party for such reduction together with interest thereon from the date of any such demand until payment in full at the applicable Index Rate. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by the Affected Party to the Borrower shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto (absent manifest error) for all purposes.

(b) If, due to any Regulatory Change, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Party of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any commitment hereunder or under any other Related Document, including with respect to any Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations or other Outstanding Principal Amount, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Affected Party hereunder or thereunder, including with respect to any Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations or other Outstanding Principal Amount (any such increase in cost or reduction in amounts receivable are hereinafter referred to as “Additional Costs”), then the Borrower shall, from time to time upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Affected Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Party for such Additional Costs together with interest thereon from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at the applicable Index Rate. Each Affected Party agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstance referred to above that would result in any such Additional Costs, it shall, to the extent not inconsistent with its internal policies of general application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(b).

(c) Determinations by any Affected Party for purposes of this Section 2.09 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of making, funding or maintaining any commitments hereunder or under any other Related Documents or on amounts payable to it hereunder or thereunder or of the additional amounts required to compensate such Affected Party in respect of any Additional Costs shall be set forth in a written notice to the Borrower in reasonable detail and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Borrower (absent manifest error) for all purposes.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain any LIBOR Rate Advance, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such LIBOR Rate Advance at another branch or office of that Lender without, in that Lender’s opinion, adversely affecting it or its Advances or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Advances shall terminate and (ii) Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding LIBOR Rate Advances owing to such Lender, together with interest accrued thereon, unless Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such notice and demand, converts all such LIBOR Rate Advances into Index Rate Advances.

(e) Promptly after any Affected Party has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.09, such Affected Party shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation or Additional Costs pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Party’s right to demand such compensation or Additional Costs; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Affected Party pursuant to this Section 2.09 for any increased costs or reduction or other Additional Costs incurred more than 90 days prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Change or other governmental action giving rise to such increased costs or reductions or Additional Costs and of such Affected Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

Section 2.10. [RESERVED].

Section 2.11. Letter of Credit Facility. From and after the Effective Date until the Commitment Termination Date, and subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.11, the Borrower shall have the right to request the issuance of Letters of Credit for the benefit of itself, any Originator or any Subsidiary of an Originator, and the Lenders agree to incur or purchase participations in, Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of the Borrower.

(a) Issuance. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to incur, upon the request of the Borrower and for Borrower’s account, Letter of Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued by either (x) an L/C Issuer which is also a Lender hereunder, in which case such Letters of Credit shall not be guaranteed by the Administrative Agent and draws on such Letters of Credit shall be reimbursable by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.11(b) below, or (y) an L/C Issuer which is not a Lender (a “Third-Party L/C Issuer”), in which case such Letters of Credit will be guaranteed by the Administrative Agent and draws on such Letters of Credit will be reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11(b) below, and if the Borrower fails to do so, by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of a guaranty by the Administrative Agent (the “L/C Guaranty”) and any payment by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the applicable L/C

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Guaranty shall be repaid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of Section 2.11(b) below. The aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (i) the L/C Sublimit, and (ii) the excess (if any) of (1) the lesser of (A) the Aggregate Commitment and (B) the sum of the Tranche A Borrowing Base and the Tranche B Borrowing Base, over (2) the aggregate outstanding amount of Advances. No such Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date that is more than one year following the date of issuance thereof unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (including with respect to customary evergreen provisions), and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date that is later than the Commitment Termination Date.

(ii) Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put the Administrative Agent or such L/C Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the L/C Issuer.

(b) Reimbursement Obligations; Advances and Participations. (i) The Borrower hereby agrees to pay (either out of its own funds or with the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Advance) to the applicable L/C Issuer or, with respect to a Letter of Credit issued by a Third-Party L/C Issuer, to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the related L/C Guaranty, on demand any amounts drawn under any Letter of Credit, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person. In the event the Borrower does not pay any Reimbursement Obligation in cash out of its own funds on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises, it shall be deemed to have made a request for (i) Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances to the extent of Tranche A Funding Availability and (ii) Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances to the extent that the Reimbursement Obligations is greater than Tranche A Funding Availability at such time to be made in respect of such Reimbursement

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Obligation pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii) below. Each Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest from the date of the relevant drawing until the earlier of (x) the date on which the Borrower pays such Reimbursement Obligation in full in cash and (y) the date on which Revolving Credit Advances in respect of such Reimbursement Obligations are made in accordance with Section 2.11(b)(ii) below, at the Index Rate in effect at such time.

(ii) In the event that any Letter of Credit is drawn and the Borrower does not pay the Reimbursement Obligation in full in cash on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that the Lenders make (i) Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances to the extent of Tranche A Funding Availability and (ii) Tranche B Revolving Credit Advances to the extent that the Reimbursement Obligations are greater than Tranche A Funding Availability in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation on the Business Day following the date on which such drawing was made (such date, the “Reimbursement Date”). The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to deliver notice of such deemed request on behalf of the Borrower, and each Lender shall, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Reimbursement Date (so long as it received notice of such drawing by no later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the Reimbursement Date), make available to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable), as (i) a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance up to its Pro Rata Share of Tranche A Funding Availability and (ii) a Tranche B Revolving Credit Advance to the extent that its Pro Rata Share of the Reimbursement Obligation is greater than Tranche A Funding Availability, its Pro Rata Share of such Reimbursement Obligation. In addition, if and to the extent the Borrower has paid a Reimbursement Obligation and such payment is thereafter rescinded or set aside for any reason, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders, each Lender shall, by no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on Business Day following the date on which such notice is received, make available to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable), as (i) a Tranche A Revolving Credit Advance up to its Pro Rata Share of Tranche A Funding Availability and (ii) a Tranche B Revolving Credit Advance to the extent that its Pro Rata Share of the Reimbursement Obligation is greater than its Pro Rata Share of Tranche A Funding Availability, its Pro Rata Share of such Reimbursement Obligation. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances in accordance with this Section 2.11(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event (unless any of the events described in Sections 9.01(d) or (e) has occurred (in which event the procedures of subsection (iv) below shall apply)); (C) any inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time; or (D) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, its Pro Rata Share of any such Revolving Credit Advances shall

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share thereof, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such payment.

(iii) If it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Lender to make or the Borrower to incur Revolving Credit Advances as contemplated by subsection (b)(ii) above because of a Termination Event described in Sections 8.01(d) or (e) or otherwise or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Lender to be deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the Reimbursement Obligations owed to an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, or if the L/C Issuer is a Lender, then (1) immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the Administrative Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then outstanding and (2) thereafter, immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the Administrative Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation in such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or disbursements made under the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in this Agreement with respect to Revolving Credit Advances.

In the event that any Letter of Credit expires or is surrendered without being drawn (in whole or in part) then, in such event, the foregoing commitment to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii) and to purchase participation interests pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(iii) shall expire and the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations shall be automatically reduced by the amount of the Letter of Credit which is no longer outstanding.

(c) Cash Collateral. (i) If the Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to this Agreement, on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower will (A) pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and the Lenders cash or cash equivalents acceptable to the Administrative Agent (“Cash Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 102% of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (B) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guarantee of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount equal to 102% of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of the Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each such Cash Collateral Account shall constitute part of the Collateral in accordance with Section 8.01.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(iii) From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by the Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment Termination Date, the Administrative Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by the Borrower in respect of Reimbursement Obligations and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower, to any other Borrower Obligations then due and payable.

(ix) the fact that a Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event has occurred and is continuing.

(g) Indemnification; Nature of Lenders’ Duties. (i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in the Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable allocated costs of internal counsel) that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(ii) As between the Administrative Agent and any Lender and the Borrower, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit, by beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that in the case of any payment by the Administrative Agent under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, the Administrative Agent shall be liable to the extent such payment was made as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they may be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder or under the Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in no event shall the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, any Lender or any L/C Issuer be responsible for any special, indirect or consequential damages.

(iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any waivers, covenants or indemnities made by the Borrower in favor of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer.

Section 2.12. Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Event of Termination or Incipient Event of Termination, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Commitment by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $75,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders).

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may also invite additional Persons to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained herein and the other Related Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no Termination Event or Incipient Termination Event exists. The Borrowers shall prepay any Tranche A Revolving Credit Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Committed Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section.

(f) Tranche B Sublimit and L/C Sublimit. With the consent of each Lender, the Tranche B Sublimit and/or the L/C Sublimit may be increased on any Increase Effective Date in an amount not to exceed the amount of the increase in the Aggregate Commitment on such Increase Effective Date.

(g) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 4.01. Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. To induce each Lender to make Advances and to incur Letter of Credit Obligations from time to time and the Administrative Agent to take any action required to be performed by it hereunder, the Borrower makes the following representations and warranties to each Lender and the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date and each Advance Date and each date on which Letter of Credit Obligations are incurred, each and all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(a) Existence; Compliance with Law. The Borrower (i) is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, is a “registered organization” as defined in the UCC of such jurisdiction and is not organized under the laws of any other jurisdiction; (ii) is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction where its ownership or lease of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification; (iii) has the requisite power and authority and the legal right to own, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber and operate its properties, to lease the property it operates under lease, and to conduct its business, in each case, as now, heretofore and proposed to be conducted; (iv) has all licenses, permits, consents or approvals from or by, and has made all filings with, and has given all notices to, all Governmental Authorities having jurisdiction, to the extent required for such ownership, operation and conduct; (v) is in compliance with its limited liability company agreement; and (vi) subject to specific representations set forth herein regarding ERISA, tax and other laws, is in compliance with all applicable provisions of law, except where the failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The state of organization and the organization identification number of the Borrower and current location of the Borrower’s chief executive office, principal place of business, other offices, the premises within which any Borrower Collateral is stored or located, and the locations of its records concerning the Borrower Collateral (including originals of the Borrower Assigned Agreements) are set forth in Schedule 4.01(b) and none of such locations has changed within the past 12 months (or such shorter time as the Borrower has been in existence). During the prior five years (or such shorter time as the Borrower has been in existence), except as set forth in Schedule 4.01(b), the Borrower has not been known as or used any fictitious or trade name. In addition, Schedule 4.01(b) lists the federal employer identification number of the Borrower.

(c) Power, Authorization, Enforceable Obligations. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement and the other Related Documents to which

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

it is a party, and the creation and perfection of all Liens and ownership interests provided for herein and therein: (i) are within the Borrower’s limited liability company power; (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary or proper actions; (iii) do not contravene any provision of the Borrower’s certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement; (iv) do not violate any law or regulation, or any order or decree of any court or Governmental Authority; (v) do not conflict with or result in the breach or termination of, constitute a default under or accelerate or permit the acceleration of any performance required by, any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease, agreement or other instrument to which the Borrower or any Originator is a party or by which the Borrower or any Originator or any of the property of the Borrower or any Originator is bound; (vi) do not result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim upon any of the property of the Borrower or any Originator; and (vii) do not require the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any other Person, except those which have been duly obtained, made or complied with prior to the Effective Date as provided in Section 3.01(b). The exercise by each of the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent of any of its rights and remedies under any Related Document to which it is a party do not require the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or any other Person, except those which will have been duly obtained, made or complied with prior to the Closing Date as provided in Section 3.01(b). On or prior to the Effective Date, each of the Related Documents to which the Borrower is a party shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and each such Related Document shall then constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

(d) No Litigation. No Litigation is now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, overtly threatened in writing against the Borrower that (i) challenges the Borrower’s right or power to enter into or perform any of its obligations under the Related Documents to which it is a party, or the validity or enforceability of any Related Document or any action taken thereunder, (ii) seeks to prevent the transfer, sale, pledge or contribution of any Receivable or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement or the other Related Documents, or (iii) is reasonably likely to be adversely determined and, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

and no third party is in default under any material contract, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower is a party. Since the date of the Borrower’s organization, no event has occurred with respect to the Borrower that alone or together with other events could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(g) Ownership of Property; Liens. None of the properties and assets (including the Transferred Receivables) of the Borrower are subject to any Adverse Claims other than Permitted Encumbrances not attaching to Transferred Receivables, and there are no facts, circumstances or conditions known to the Borrower that may result in (i) with respect to the Transferred Receivables, any Adverse Claims (including Adverse Claims arising under environmental laws) and (ii) with respect to its other properties and assets, any Adverse Claims (including Adverse Claims arising under environmental laws) other than Permitted Encumbrances. The Borrower has received all assignments, bills of sale and other documents, and has duly effected all recordings, filings and other actions necessary to establish, protect and perfect the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the Transferred Receivables and its other properties and assets. No effective financing statement or other similar instrument is of record in any filing office listing the Borrower or any Originator as debtor and covering any of the Transferred Receivables or the other Borrower Collateral except with respect to the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, and the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.01 are and will be at all times fully perfected first priority Liens in and to the Borrower Collateral.

(h) Ventures, Subsidiaries and Affiliates; Outstanding Stock and Indebtedness. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries, and is not engaged in any joint venture or partnership with any other Person. The Borrower has no Investments in any Person other than Permitted Investments. The Member is the only member of the Borrower. There are no outstanding rights to purchase or options, warrants or similar rights or agreements pursuant to which the Borrower may be required to issue, sell, repurchase or redeem some or all of its membership interests. Other than the Subordinated Loans, the Borrower has no outstanding Debt on the Effective Date.

(i) Taxes. All tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by the Borrower and all material tax returns, reports and statements, including information returns, required by any Governmental Authority to be filed by the Member, the Servicer or any Originator, have in each case been filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority and all Charges have been paid prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment thereof (or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss has been paid), excluding Charges or other amounts being contested in accordance with Section 5.01(e), unless the failure to file any such return, report or statement, or the failure to pay any such charges or fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss, could reasonably not be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Effective Date, neither the Borrower nor any of its Affiliates included in the Parent Group has agreed or been requested to make any adjustment under IRC 481(a), by reason of a change in accounting method or otherwise, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(l) Brokers. No broker or finder acting on behalf of the Borrower was employed or utilized in connection with this Agreement or the other Related Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and the Borrower has no obligation to any Person in respect of any finder’s or brokerage fees in connection therewith.

(m) Margin Regulations. The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security,” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). The Borrower owns no Margin Stock, and no portion of the proceeds of the Advances made hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Debt that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any portion of such proceeds to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. The Borrower will not take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Related Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

(n) Nonapplicability of Bulk Sales Laws. No transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any of the Related Documents requires compliance with any bulk sales act or similar law.

The making of Advances and the incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations by the Lenders hereunder, the application of the proceeds thereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Documents will not violate any provision of any such statute or any rule, regulation or order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(p) Nonconsolidation. The Borrower is operated in such a manner that the separate corporate existence of the Borrower, on the one hand, and any member of the Parent Group, on the other hand, would not be disregarded in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of any member of the Parent Group and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

or its representatives at any time on demand of the Administrative Agent. Prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event and upon notice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall, and shall cause the Servicer to, permit any representative of the Administrative Agent to inspect such books and records and shall provide photocopies thereof to the Administrative Agent as more specifically set forth in Section 7.05(b).

If (i) the Administrative Agent in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ any Lender’s rights or interests in the Transferred Receivables, the Borrower Assigned Agreements or any other Borrower Collateral insecure or the Administrative Agent in good faith believes that an Incipient Termination Event or a Termination Event is imminent or (ii) an Incipient Termination Event or a Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, then the Borrower shall, and shall cause the Servicer to, at its own expense, provide such access at all times without prior notice from the Administrative Agent and provide the Administrative Agent with access to the suppliers and customers of the Borrower and the Servicer. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Servicer to, make available to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, as quickly as is possible under the circumstances, originals or copies of all books and records, including Records, that the Administrative Agent may request.

The Administrative Agent shall provide prompt notice to the Borrower and the Servicer of any such notification of pledge or direction of payment to the Obligors under any Transferred Receivables.

(e) Performance of Borrower Assigned Agreements. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Servicer to, (i) perform and observe all the terms and provisions of the Borrower Assigned Agreements to be performed or observed by it, maintain the Borrower Assigned Agreements in full force and effect, enforce the Borrower Assigned Agreements in accordance with their terms and take all action as may from time to time be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to accomplish the foregoing, and (ii) upon the reasonable request of and as directed by the Administrative Agent, make such demands and requests to any other party to the Borrower Assigned Agreements as are permitted to be made by the Borrower or the Servicer thereunder.

(f) License for Use of Software and Other Intellectual Property. Unless expressly prohibited by the licensor thereof or any provision of applicable law, if any, the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent (on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties) a limited license to use, without charge, the Borrower’s and the Servicer’s computer programs, software, printouts and other computer materials, technical knowledge or processes, data bases, materials, trademarks, registered trademarks, trademark applications, service marks,

REMEDIES

Section 9.01. Actions Upon Termination Event. If any Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have declared the Commitment Termination Date to have occurred or the Commitment Termination Date shall be deemed to have occurred pursuant to Section 8.01, then the Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the Borrower Collateral, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies granted to it hereunder, under any other Related Document or under any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Borrower Obligations or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (such rights and remedies to be cumulative and nonexclusive), and, in addition, may take the following actions:

(a) The Administrative Agent may, without notice to the Borrower except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, (i) charge, offset or otherwise apply amounts payable to the Borrower from the Agent Account, the Borrower Account, the Concentration Account or any Collection Account against all or any part of the Borrower Obligations and (ii) without limiting the terms of Section 7.05(d), notify any Obligor under any Transferred Receivable or obligors under the Borrower Assigned Agreements of the transfer of the Transferred Receivables to the Borrower and the pledge of such Transferred Receivables or Borrower Assigned Agreements, as the case may be, to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties hereunder and direct that payments of all amounts due or to become due to the Borrower thereunder be made directly to the Administrative Agent or any servicer, collection agent or lockbox or other account designated by the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Administrative Agent may, without notice except as specified below, solicit and accept bids for and sell the Borrower Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or any of the Lenders’ or Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem to be commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on the Borrower’s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any of the Borrower’s premises without charge for such sales at such time or times as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary or advisable. The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, ten days’ notice to the Borrower of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Borrower Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Every such sale shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever of the Borrower in and to the Borrower Collateral so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against each Originator, the Borrower, any Person claiming any right in the Borrower Collateral sold through

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

any Originator or the Borrower, and their respective successors or assigns. The Administrative Agent shall deposit the net proceeds of any such sale in the Agent Account and such proceeds shall be applied against all or any part of the Borrower Obligations.

(c) Upon the completion of any sale under Section 9.01(b), the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale on the date thereof, or within a reasonable time thereafter if it shall be impracticable to make immediate delivery, all of the Borrower Collateral sold on such date, but in any event full title and right of possession to such property shall vest in such purchaser or purchasers upon the completion of such sale. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative Agent or by any such purchaser, the Borrower shall confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to such purchaser all proper instruments of conveyance and transfer and releases as may be designated in any such request.

(d) At any sale under Section 9.01(b), any Lender or the Administrative Agent may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

(e) The Administrative Agent may (but in no event shall be obligated to) exercise, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower, any and all rights and remedies of the Borrower under or in connection with the Borrower Assigned Agreements or the other Borrower Collateral, including any and all rights of the Borrower to demand or otherwise require payment of any amount under, or performance of any provisions of, the Borrower Assigned Agreements. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the occurrence of any Event of Servicer Termination, have the right to name any Successor Servicer (including itself) pursuant to Article VIII of the Sale Agreement.

Section 9.02. Exercise of Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between any Originator, the Borrower or the Servicer, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, on the other hand, shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have at law or in equity. No notice to or demand on any party hereto shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the party providing such notice or making such demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 9.03. Power of Attorney. On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall execute and deliver a power of attorney substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.03 (a “Power of Attorney”). The Power of Attorney is a power coupled with

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement has terminated in accordance with its terms and all of the Borrower Obligations are indefeasibly paid or otherwise satisfied in full. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent under each Power of Attorney are solely to protect the Liens of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders upon and interests in the Borrower Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent shall not be accountable for any amount other than amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and none of the Administrative Agent’s officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be responsible to the Borrower, any Originator, the Servicer or any other Person for any act or failure to act, except to the extent of damages attributable to their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in any other Related Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any powers pursuant to any Power of Attorney unless a Termination Event or Servicer Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing.

Section 9.04. Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement shall create a continuing Lien in the Borrower Collateral until the date such security interest is released by Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Section 11.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of the Borrower and its own decision to enter into this Agreement.

Section 11.06. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to each of the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning the Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution which commercial bank or financial institution is organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof which has a long-term debt rating from S&P of “A–” or better and ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ of “A3” or better and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000.

Section 11.07. Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Termination Event, each Lender and each holder of any Note is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived (but subject to Section 2.03(b)(i)), to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of the Borrower (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Borrower) and any other properties or assets any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Borrower Obligations which are not paid when due. Any Lender or holder of any Note exercising a right to set off or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Borrower Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrower Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so set off or otherwise received with each other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Each Lender’s obligation pursuant to this Section 11.07 is in addition to and not in limitation of its obligations to purchase a participation equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.01(b) or to purchase a participation equal to its Pro Rata Share of Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to Section 2.11(b). The Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender or holder may exercise its right to set off with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Borrower Obligations and may sell participations in such amount so set off to other Lenders and holders and (b) any Lender or holders so purchasing a participation in the Advances made or Letter of Credit Obligations incurred or other Borrower Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of set off, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations and the other Borrower Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the set-off amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has exercised the right of set-off, the purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest.

Section 12.02. Binding Effect; Assignability.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns. The Borrower may not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey any of its rights or obligations hereunder or interests herein without the express prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by the Borrower without the prior express written consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be void.

(b) The Borrower hereby consents to any Lender’s assignment or pledge of, and/or sale of participations in, at any time or times after the Effective Date of the Related Documents, Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations and any Commitment or of any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies, powers or duties thereunder (including, without limitation, an assignment by the Swing Line Lender of all or any portion of its Swing Line Commitment), whether evidenced by a writing or not, made in accordance with this Section 12.02(b). Any assignment by a Lender shall (i) require the execution of an assignment agreement (an “Assignment Agreement”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 12.02(b) or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and acknowledged by, the Administrative Agent and other than in the case of an assignment by a Lender to one of its Affiliates, the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (ii) if a partial assignment, be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and, after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assigning Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000; (iii) require the delivery to the Administrative Agent by the assignee or participant, as the case may be, of any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States tax withholding matters, and (iv) other than in the case of an assignment by a Lender to one of its Affiliates, include a payment to the Administrative Agent by the assignor or assignee Lender of an assignment fee of $3,500. In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 12.02, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as it would if it were a Lender hereunder. The assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

such assignment. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment made in accordance with this Section 12.02(b) will give rise to a direct obligation of the Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall thereupon be a “Lender” for all purposes. In all instances, each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances and incur Letter of Credit Obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of a Tranche A Revolving Note, Tranche B Revolving Note or the Swing Line Note, the Borrower shall, upon the request of such Lender, execute new Revolving Notes or Swing Line Notes in exchange for the Tranche A Revolving Notes, the Tranche B Revolving Notes or Swing Line Notes, as the case may be, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.02(b), any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Related Documents to any Federal Reserve Bank or to any holder or trustee of such Lender’s securities; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment to any Federal Reserve Bank, holder or trustee shall release such Lender from such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any other Related Document and no such holder or trustee shall be entitled to enforce any rights of such Lender hereunder unless such holder or trustee becomes a Lender hereunder through execution of an Assignment Agreement as set forth above.

(c) In addition to the foregoing right, any Lender may, without notice to or consent from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, (x) grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Advance that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder); (y) assign to an SPV all or a portion of its rights (but not its obligations) under the Related Documents, including a sale of any Advances or other Borrower Obligations hereunder and such Lender’s right to receive payment with respect to any such Borrower Obligation and (z) sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Related Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Advances); provided, however, that (x) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Advances hereunder, and none shall be liable to any Person for any obligations of such Lender hereunder (it being understood that nothing in this Section 12.02(c) shall limit any rights the Lender may have as against such SPV or participant under the terms of the applicable option, sale or participation agreement between or among such parties); and (y) no such SPV or holder of any such participation shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to, any Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Advance in which such holder participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the Borrower Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Related Documents). Solely for purposes of Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 9.01, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each such sale or participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of the Borrower to the participant or SPV and each such participant or SPV shall be considered to be a “Lender” for purposes of such sections. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, such Lender’s rights and obligations, and

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

the rights and obligations of the other Lenders and the Administrative Agent towards such Lender under any Related Document shall remain unchanged and none of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (other than the Lender selling a participation or assignment to an SPV) shall have any duty to any participant or SPV and may continue to deal solely with the assigning or selling Lender as if no such assignment or sale had occurred.

(d) Except as expressly provided in this Section 12.02, no Lender shall, as between the Borrower and that Lender, or between the Administrative Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Advances, the Letter of Credit Obligations, the Tranche A Revolving Notes, the Tranche B Revolving Notes, the Swing Line Note or other Borrower Obligations owed to such Lender.

(e) The Borrower shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this Section 12.02 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be reasonably requested and the participation of management in meetings with potential assignees or participants. The Borrower shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests in connection with an initial syndication of the Commitments hereunder, assist in the preparation of informational materials for such syndication.

(f) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, the Originator, the Parent, the Servicer and/or the Receivables in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants). Each Lender shall obtain from all prospective and actual assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 12.05.

Section 12.03. Termination; Survival of Borrower Obligations Upon Commitment Termination Date.

(a) This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Related Document, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of any commitment made by any Affected Party under this Agreement shall in any way affect or impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of the Borrower or the rights of any Affected Party relating to any unpaid portion of the Borrower Obligations, due or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of which is required after the Commitment Termination Date. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Related Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon the Borrower and all rights of any Affected Party hereunder, all as contained in the Related Documents, shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination or cancellation and shall

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided, that the rights and remedies provided for herein with respect to any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Borrower pursuant to Article IV, the indemnification and payment provisions of Article X and Sections 11.05, 12.05, 12.14 and 12.15 shall be continuing and shall survive the Termination Date.

Section 12.04. Costs, Expenses and Taxes. (a) The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the other Related Documents (including the reasonable fees and expenses of all of its special counsel, advisors, consultants and auditors retained in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby and advice in connection therewith). The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including the fees, costs and expenses of counsel or other advisors (including environmental and management consultants and appraisers) for advice, assistance, or other representation in connection with:

(i) the forwarding to the Borrower or any other Person on behalf of the Borrower by any Lender of any proceeds of Advances made by such Lender hereunder;

(ii) the issuance of Letters of Credit on behalf of the Borrower;

(iii) any amendment, modification or waiver of, consent with respect to, or termination of this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents or advice in connection with the administration hereof or thereof or their respective rights hereunder or thereunder;

(iv) any Litigation, contest or dispute (whether instituted by the Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person as a party, witness, or otherwise) in any way relating to the Borrower Collateral, any of the Related Documents or any other agreement to be executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith, including any Litigation, contest, dispute, suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or review thereof, in connection with a case commenced by or against the Borrower, the Servicer or any other Person that may be obligated to any Lender or the Administrative Agent by virtue of the Related Documents, including any such Litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action arising in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby during the pendency of one or more Termination Events;

(v) any attempt to enforce any remedies of a Lender or the Administrative Agent against the Borrower, the Servicer or any other Person that may be obligated to them by virtue of any of the Related Documents, including any such attempt to enforce any such remedies in the course of any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby during the pendency of one or more Termination Events;

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

(vi) any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby during the pendency of one or more Termination Events; and

(vii) efforts to (A) monitor the Advances, Letter of Credit Obligations or any of the Borrower Obligations, (B) evaluate, observe or assess the Originators, the Parent, the Borrower, the Member or the Servicer or their respective affairs, and (C) verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the Borrower Collateral;

including all reasonable attorneys’ and other professional and service providers’ fees arising from such services, including those in connection with any appellate proceedings, and all reasonable expenses, costs, charges and other fees incurred by such counsel and others in connection with or relating to any of the events or actions described in this Section 12.04, all of which shall be payable, on demand, by the Borrower to the applicable Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such reasonable expenses, costs, charges and fees may include: fees, costs and expenses of accountants, environmental advisors, appraisers, investment bankers, management and other consultants and paralegals; court costs and expenses; photocopying and duplication expenses; court reporter fees, costs and expenses; long distance telephone charges; air express charges; telegram or facsimile charges; secretarial overtime charges; and reasonable expenses for travel, lodging and food paid or incurred in connection with the performance of such legal or other advisory services.

other Related Documents without the prior written consent of the Borrower, the Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless such news release or public announcement is required by law, in which case the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender, as the case may be, shall consult with the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lenders specifically referenced therein prior to the issuance of such news release or public announcement. The Borrower may, however, disclose the general terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Documents to trade creditors, suppliers and other similarly-situated Persons so long as such disclosure is not in the form of a news release or public announcement.

(c) The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), and will not use such confidential Information for any purpose or in any matter except in connection with this Agreement, except that Information may be disclosed (1) to (i) each Affected Party (ii) its and each Affected Party’s and their respective Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and to not disclose or use such Information in violation of Regulation FD (17 C.F.R. § 243.100-243.103)) and (iii) industry trade organizations for inclusion in league table measurements, (2) any regulatory authority (it being understood that it will to the extent reasonably practicable provide the Borrower with an opportunity to request confidential treatment from such regulatory authority), (3) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (4) to any other party to this Agreement, (5) to the extent required in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Related Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (6) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of (or participant in), or any prospective assignee of (or participant in), any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (7) with the consent of the Borrower or (8) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or any other confidentiality agreement to which it is party with the Borrower or the Parent or any subsidiary thereof or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Parent or any subsidiary thereof. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower and Servicer relating to the Borrower, the Servicer, the Parent or any subsidiary thereof or their businesses, or any Obligor, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Borrower or Servicer; provided that in the case of information received from the Borrower or Servicer after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 12.06. Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement and the other Related Documents constitute the complete agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and may not be modified, altered or amended except as set forth in Section 12.07.

Section 12.07. Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and by the Requisite Lenders or, to the extent required under clause (b) below, by all affected Lenders and the Swing Line Lender or the L/C Issuers, as applicable, and, to the extent required under clause (b) or clause (c) below, by the Administrative Agent. Except as set forth in clause (b) below, all amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of any Lenders without specifying the required percentage of Lenders shall require the written consent of the Requisite Lenders.

(b) (i) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby, do any of the following: (1) increase the principal amount of any Lender’s Commitment; (2) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or Fees payable with respect to any Advance or Letter of Credit Obligation incurred made by any affected Lender; (3) extend any scheduled payment date or final maturity date of the principal amount of any Advance of any affected Lender; (4) waive, forgive, defer, extend or postpone any payment of interest or Fees as to any affected Lender; (5) change the percentage of the Aggregate Commitments or of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount which shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; (6) release all or substantially all of the Borrower Collateral; or (7) amend or waive this Section 12.07 or the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” insofar as such definition affects the substance of this Section 12.07. Furthermore, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (x) affects the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Related Document unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, (y) affects the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement or modifies or amends any other provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document relating the Swing Line Loan, Swing Line Advances or the Swing Line Lender unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender, or (z) affects the rights or duties of any L/C Issuer under this Agreement or modifies or amends any other provision of this Agreement or any other Related Document relating to Letter of Credit Obligations, the issuance of Letters of Credit or any L/C Issuer unless in writing and signed by (or with the prior written consent of) each L/C Issuer.

(ii) Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be required for the Administrative Agent to take additional Borrower Collateral pursuant to any Related

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Document. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the holder of such Note. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 12.07 shall be binding upon each holder of a Note at the time outstanding and each future holder of a Note.

(iii) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall waive any of the provisions set forth in Section 4.01(v) or Section 5.01(g) if such waiver would adversely affect the Ratings.

(i) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described this clause (i) or in clause (ii) below being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), or

(ii) requiring the consent of Requisite Lenders, the consent of Lenders holding 51% or more of the Aggregate Commitments is obtained, but the consent of Requisite Lenders is not obtained,

then, so long as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower’s request the Administrative Agent, or a Person acceptable to the Administrative Agent, shall have the right with the Administrative Agent’s consent and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to the Administrative Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Advances held by the Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement.

(d) Upon indefeasible payment in full in cash and performance of all of the Borrower Obligations (other than indemnification obligations under Section 10.01), termination of the Aggregate Commitment and a release of all claims against the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and so long as no suits, actions, proceedings or claims are pending or threatened against any Indemnified Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are Indemnified Liabilities, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower termination statements and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the Liens securing payment of the Borrower Obligations.

Section 12.08. No Waiver; Remedies. The failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Borrower or the Servicer of any provision of this Agreement, any Receivables

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Assignment or any other Related Document shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of any Lender or the Administrative Agent thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall not suspend, waive or affect any other breach or default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a different type. None of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of the Borrower or the Servicer contained in this Agreement, any Receivables Assignment or any other Related Document, and no breach or default by the Borrower or the Servicer hereunder or thereunder, shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by any Lender or the Administrative Agent unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other duly authorized signatory of the applicable Lenders and the Administrative Agent and directed to the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, specifying such suspension or waiver. The rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Related Documents shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent may have hereunder, thereunder, under any other agreement, by operation of law or otherwise. Recourse to the Borrower Collateral shall not be required.

Section 12.09. GOVERNING LAW; CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER RELATED DOCUMENT (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY RELATED DOCUMENT EXPRESSLY PROVIDES TO THE CONTRARY) AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS (INCLUDING 735 ILCS SECTION 105/5-1 ET. SEQ. BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION, EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR PRIORITY OF THE INTERESTS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN THE RECEIVABLES OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER, IN RESPECT THEREOF, ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THEM PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER RELATED DOCUMENT; PROVIDED, THAT EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS;

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

PROVIDED FURTHER THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE BORROWER COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE BORROWER OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF THE LENDERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. EACH PARTY HERETO SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH PARTY AT THE ADDRESS PROVIDED FOR IN SECTION 12.01 HEREOF AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAIL, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

(c) BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER RELATED DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

Section 12.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement.

Section 12.11. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 12.12. Section Titles. The section, titles and table of contents contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

Section 12.13. Further Assurances.

(a) The Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, at its sole cost and expense, upon request of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all further instruments and documents and take such further action that may be necessary or desirable or that any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent may request to (i) perfect, protect, preserve, continue and maintain fully the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of itself and the Lenders under this Agreement, (ii) enable the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under this Agreement or any of the other Related Documents or (iii) otherwise carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement or any other Related Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, upon request of any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, (A) execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices that may be necessary or desirable or that any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent may request to perfect, protect and preserve the Liens granted pursuant to this Agreement, free and clear of all Adverse Claims, (B) ▇▇▇▇, or cause the Servicer to ▇▇▇▇, each Contract evidencing each Transferred Receivable with a legend, acceptable to each Lender and the Administrative Agent evidencing that the Borrower has purchased such Transferred Receivables and that the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has a security interest in and lien thereon, (C) ▇▇▇▇, or cause the Servicer to ▇▇▇▇, its master data processing records evidencing such Transferred Receivables with such a legend and (D) notify or cause the Servicer to notify Obligors of the Liens on the Transferred Receivables granted hereunder.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, to file one or more financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relating to all or any part of the Transferred Receivables, including Collections with respect thereto, or the Borrower Collateral without the signature of the Borrower or, as applicable, the Lenders, as applicable, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including, for administrative convenience, financing statements with respect to the Borrower describing the collateral covered by any such UCC-1 financing statement as “all assets” or language similar thereto). A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of any notice or financing statement covering the Transferred Receivables, the Borrower Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a notice or financing statement where permitted by law.

Receivables Funding and Administration Agreement

Section 12.14. No Proceedings. Each of Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that, from and after the Closing Date and until the date one year plus one day following the Termination Date, it will not, directly or indirectly, institute or cause to be instituted against the Borrower any proceeding of the type referred to in Sections 8.01(d) and 8.01(e). This Section 12.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.15. Limitation on Payments. Notwithstanding any provision in any other section of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts payable to Lender or any other Affected Party pursuant to Sections 2.09 and 10.01 of this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Borrower except as to any Collections and other amounts and/or proceeds of the Receivables (collectively, the “Available Amounts”) required to be distributed to the Lenders, to the extent that such amounts are available for distribution. In the event that amounts payable to a Lender or any other Affected Party pursuant to this Agreement exceed the Available Amounts, the excess of the amounts due hereunder over the Available Amounts paid shall not constitute a “claim” under Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code against the Borrower until such time as the Borrower has Available Amounts. The foregoing shall not operate to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Affected Party to enforce any claims of Borrower or its assigns against the Originators under the Sale Agreement or any other Related Document.
