(b) AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ABDC”), as initial Servicer (the Servicer together with Seller, the “Seller Parties” and each, a “Seller Party”),

(d) MUFG Bank, Ltd. (f/k/a The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd.), as administrator for each Purchaser Group (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrator”).

Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

1. Seller desires to transfer and assign Receivable Interests from time to time.

2. The Purchasers desire to purchase Receivable Interests from Seller from time to time.

3. MUFG Bank, Ltd., has been requested and is willing to act as Administrator on behalf of the Purchasers and their assigns in accordance with the terms hereof.

4. The Seller, the Servicer, the Purchaser Agents and Purchasers party hereto and the Administrator have previously entered into that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 10, 2003 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified through the date hereof, the “Original Agreement”).

5. The parties hereto desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

In consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS

Section 1.1 Purchase Facility.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Article VI), from time to time prior to the applicable Facility Termination Date, Seller may request that the Uncommitted Purchasers, or, if an Uncommitted Purchaser (in its sole discretion) denies such request or is unable to fund (in which case it shall provide notice of such denial or inability to the Seller, the Administrator and its Purchaser Agent), request that the Related Committed Purchasers, purchase from Seller undivided ownership interests in the Receivables and the associated Related Security and Collections (which interest shall be held by the Administrator on behalf of the applicable Purchasers). Each Uncommitted Purchaser may (in its sole discretion), and each Related Committed Purchaser severally hereby agrees to, make Incremental Purchases, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof before the applicable Facility Termination Date, ratably based on the applicable Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of each Incremental Purchase requested pursuant to Section 1.2 (and, in the case of each Related Committed Purchaser, its Commitment Percentage of its Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of such Purchase); provided that no Purchase shall be made by any Purchaser if, after giving effect thereto, either (i) if such Purchaser is a Related Committed Purchaser, such Purchaser’s aggregate Invested Amount would exceed its Available Commitment, (ii) the Group Invested Amount would exceed the Group Commitment for such Purchaser’s Purchaser Group, or (iii) the aggregate of the Receivable Interests would exceed 100%. It is the intent of the Conduit Purchasers to fund any Purchases hereunder through the issuance of Commercial Paper. If for any reason any Conduit Purchaser is unable, or determines that it is undesirable, to issue Commercial Paper to fund or maintain its investment in the Receivable Interests, or is unable for any reason to repay such Commercial Paper upon the maturity thereof, such Conduit Purchaser may avail itself of a Liquidity Funding to the extent available. If any Purchaser funds or refinances its investment in a Receivable Interest through any means other than the issuance of Commercial Paper, in lieu of paying CP Costs on the Invested Amount pursuant to Article III hereof, Seller will pay Yield thereon at the applicable Yield Rate in accordance with Article IV hereof. Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a commitment of any Conduit Purchaser to issue Commercial Paper.

(b) Seller may, once monthly, during each of the first and fourth calendar quarters of each year (the “Accordion Period”):

(X) upon at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice in substantially the form of Exhibit XIV hereto (a “Purchase Limit Increase Request”) to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, request that each Purchaser Group increase its respective existing Group Commitment; provided that:

(i) such requested increase shall be in an amount not less than $50,000,000 in the aggregate and the Purchase Limit after giving effect to such increases shall not exceed the sum of (A) the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit and (B) $250,000,000 without the prior written consent of all Purchaser Agents,

(ii) each Purchaser Agent (on behalf of the related Purchaser Group) shall, in its sole discretion, make a determination whether or not to grant any request to increase its Purchaser Group’s Group Commitment under this clause (b) and shall notify the Seller and the Administrator in writing of such determination within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a Purchase Limit Increase Request; provided that if any Purchaser Agent fails to so notify the Seller or the Administrator, the applicable Purchasers shall be deemed to have refused to consent to such Purchase Limit Increase Request,

(iii) the Seller’s request for the increases in the respective Group Commitments of the Purchaser Groups shall be ratable with respect to each such Purchaser Group (according to the then existing Group Commitments of all such Purchaser Groups), and if Purchaser Groups holding less than 100% of the aggregate Group Commitments of all Purchaser Groups consent to such increase in their respective Group Commitment, the Seller may request increases in the Group Commitments of the Purchaser Groups who have consented (any such Purchaser Group, an “Increasing Purchaser Group”) (by written notice to the Purchaser Agents for the Increasing Purchaser Groups), on a ratable basis (based on the then existing Group Commitments of all such Increasing Purchaser Groups), unless otherwise consented to in writing by all the Purchaser Agents for such Increasing Purchaser Groups and at the sole discretion of the Purchaser Agents for each such Increasing Purchaser Group,

(iv) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) to the extent the Aggregate Invested Amount is at any time equal to or less than the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit, all Incremental Purchases shall be made during such time ratably according to each Purchaser’s Ratable Share of the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit prior to giving effect to any increases under this clause (b) and (B) so long as the Aggregate Invested Amount is greater than the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit, all Incremental Purchases with respect to the Accordion Purchase Limit shall be made ratably according to each Purchaser’s Accordion Ratable Share of the Accordion Purchase Limit,

(v) on the first day of the second calendar quarter of each year, (A) the Purchase Limit, if greater than the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, shall automatically be reduced to the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit and each Purchaser Group’s Group Commitment will revert to the amount shown on its signature page herein and (B) if the aggregate Accordion Invested Amount is greater than zero after giving effect to such automatic reduction pursuant to this sub-clause (v), the Seller shall pay to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the related Purchasers in the Increasing Purchaser Groups immediately an amount to be applied to reduce such Purchaser’s Accordion Invested Amount (ratably, according to each Purchaser’s Accordion Invested Amount), such that after giving effect to such payment, the aggregate Accordion Invested Amount is equal to zero, and

(vi) the Seller shall (and shall cause the Servicer to) deliver all documents, instruments, reports, opinions and agreements as the Administrator and any Purchaser Agent may reasonably request in connection with making a determination as to whether or not to grant any request under this clause (b), including, on or prior to the effectiveness of any increase pursuant to this clause (b), a confirmation regarding such increase for each Increasing Purchaser Group, substantially in the form of Exhibit XVI hereto (an “Accordion Confirmation”) and executed by the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrator and the Purchaser Agent for each such Increasing Purchaser Group, an executed copy of which shall be circulated to each Purchaser Agent by the Administrator, or

(Y) upon at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice in substantially the form of Exhibit XV hereto (a “Purchase Limit Decrease Notice”) to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, the Seller may request a reduction in the Purchase Limit to an amount no less than the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit (ratably, based on such Purchaser Group’s Accordion Invested Amount after giving effect to any increases under this clause (b)) and such decrease shall be in an amount not less than $50,000,000 in the aggregate, and, if the Aggregate Invested Amount would exceed the Purchase Limit after giving effect to such optional reduction pursuant to this clause (b), the Seller shall pay to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the related Purchasers immediately upon such optional reduction an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Invested Amount (ratably, according to each Purchaser’s aggregate Accordion Invested Amount), such that after giving effect to such payment, the Aggregate Invested Amount is equal to the Purchase Limit.

(c) Seller may, upon at least 15 days’ notice to the Administrator (which shall promptly forward a copy to each Purchaser Agent), terminate the purchase facility in whole or reduce, in whole or in part, the unused portion of the Purchase Limit (but not below the amount which would cause the Group Invested Amount of any Purchaser Group to exceed its Group Commitment (after giving effect to such reduction) and, unless terminated in whole, not below $100,000,000); provided that each partial reduction of the Purchase Limit shall be in an amount equal to $10,000,000 (or a larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof). Such reduction shall, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Seller, the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent be applied ratably to reduce the Group Commitment of each Purchaser Group; provided that if the Seller requests such reduction or termination during an Accordion Period and the Purchase Limit is then greater than the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit, the Purchase Limit shall first be reduced to equal the Non-Accordion Purchase Limit in accordance with Section 1.1(b) prior to effecting any reduction or termination under this clause (c).

(d) If any Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser, then the Seller may, at its sole expense and effort, upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to such Defaulting Purchaser, the related Defaulting Purchaser Group, the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, (i) join a new Purchaser Group to the Agreement and require the Defaulting Purchaser Group to assign and delegate, without recourse, all of their respective interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Transaction Documents to such new Purchaser Group (and in accordance with and subject to the terms and provisions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation Article XII hereof); provided, that, in connection with such assignment, such Defaulting Purchaser Group shall have received an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Invested Amount, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents from the assignees (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Seller (in the case of all other amounts) (the “Defaulting Purchaser Group Payoff Amount”) or (ii) declare the Facility Termination Date for such Defaulting Purchaser Group to have occurred, whereupon each Purchaser in such Defaulting Purchaser Group shall be an Exiting Purchaser for all purposes hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of any such assignment contemplated in clause (i) above, the members of the Defaulting Purchaser Group shall cease to be parties to this Agreement and shall have no further rights, obligations or interest under the Transaction Documents (other than any rights, obligations or interests that by their terms expressly survive any termination thereof). The Defaulting Purchaser Group’s receipt of payment in full of the Defaulting Purchaser Group Payoff Amount in connection with any such assignment contemplated in clause (i) above will constitute payment in full and satisfaction in full of all of the Seller’s obligations to the Defaulting Purchaser Group under the Transaction Documents (other than with respect to the indemnification and other liabilities and obligations which by their terms expressly survive any termination thereof).

(e) If, prior to the date of any assignment contemplated by clause (d)(i) above or declared Facility Termination Date contemplated by clause (d)(ii) above, a Defaulting Purchaser (i) makes the Incremental Purchase the prior failure of which to make caused such Purchaser to become a Defaulting Purchaser or (ii) the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and the Seller agree in writing in their discretion that such Purchaser should no longer be deemed a Defaulting Purchaser, the Administrator will, in either case, so notify the parties hereto, and, upon the date of such Incremental Purchase or the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Defaulting Purchaser shall cease to be a Defaulting Purchaser and its related Defaulting Purchaser Group shall cease to be a Defaulting Purchaser Group.

Section 1.2 Incremental Purchases. Seller shall provide the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent with at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Incremental Purchase (each, a “Purchase Notice”) by 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day prior to the Purchase Date. Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price (which shall not be less than $500,000, or a larger integral multiple of $100,000, with respect to each Purchaser Group) and the Purchase Date. Following receipt of a Purchase Notice, the applicable Purchaser Agent will determine whether the related Uncommitted Purchaser will fund the requested Incremental Purchase. If such Uncommitted Purchaser (in its sole discretion) elects not to fund an Incremental Purchase, the Incremental Purchase shall be funded ratably by its Related Committed Purchasers (in accordance with such Related Committed Purchasers’ Available Commitments). On each Purchase Date, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, each applicable Purchaser shall deposit to the Facility Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time), an amount equal to such Purchaser’s portion (based on each Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share and, if applicable, such Purchaser’s Available Commitment) of the requested Purchase Price.

Section 1.3 Decreases. Seller shall provide the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent with prior written irrevocable notice in the form set forth as Exhibit XII hereto (a “Reduction Notice”) of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Invested Amount at least one Business Day prior to any such proposed reduction. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date (the “Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Invested Amount shall occur, and (ii) the amount of Aggregate Invested Amount to be reduced (the “Aggregate Reduction”) which shall be applied to all Receivable Interests (ratably, according to each Purchaser’s aggregate Invested Amount).

Section 1.4 Deemed Collections; Purchase Limit.

(a) If on any day:

(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or cancelled as a result of any credit issued for returned or repossessed goods, any shortages, any pricing adjustment, any volume rebate or any other allowance, adjustment or deduction by any Originator or any Affiliate thereof, or as a result of any governmental or regulatory action, or

(ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff or disputed item in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an unrelated transaction), or

(iii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced on account of the obligation of any Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or

(iv) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is less than the amount included in calculating the Net Pool Balance for purposes of any Settlement Report (for any reason other than receipt of Collections or such Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), or

(v) any of the representations or warranties of Seller with respect to any Receivable set forth in Article V were not true when made,

then, on such day, Seller shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Receivable (A) in the case of clauses (i) through (iv) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount included in calculating such Net Pool Balance, as applicable; and (B) in the case of clause (v) above, in the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and, not later than one (1) Business Day thereafter shall pay to the Collection Account the amount of any such Collection deemed to have been received in the same manner as actual cash collections are distributed under the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Seller shall ensure that the Aggregate Invested Amount at no time exceeds the Purchase Limit. If at any time the Aggregate Invested Amount exceeds the Purchase Limit, Seller shall pay to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the related Purchasers immediately an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Invested Amount (ratably, according to each Purchaser’s aggregate Invested Amount), such that after giving effect to such payment the Aggregate Invested Amount is less than or equal to the Purchase Limit.

(c) Seller shall also ensure that the aggregate of the Receivable Interests shall at no time exceed 100%. If the aggregate of the Receivable Interests exceeds 100%, Seller shall pay to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the related Purchasers on or before the next Business Day an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Invested Amount (ratably, according to each Purchaser’s aggregate Invested Amount), such that after giving effect to such payment the aggregate of the Receivable Interests equals or is less than 100%.

Section 1.5 Payment Requirements and Computations. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day. If such amounts are payable to or for the account of any Purchaser, such amounts shall be paid to the account from time to time specified by the related Purchaser Agent to the Seller and the Servicer. All computations of CP Costs, Yield, per annum fees calculated as part of any CP Costs, per annum fees hereunder and per annum fees under the Fee Letters shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Fee Letter to the contrary, “Unused Fees” shall not accrue with respect to any Defaulting Purchaser on any day such Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof (without prejudice to the rights of any Purchasers other than such Defaulting Purchaser in respect of such “Unused Fees”); for the avoidance of doubt, (a) “Unused Fees” shall accrue with respect to any Defaulting Purchaser that is a Defaulting Purchaser solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition thereof, and (b) any “Unused Fees” that have accrued under any Fee Letter with respect to a Defaulting Purchaser prior to the date such Purchaser became a Defaulting Purchaser pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof shall be payable as and when required in accordance with the terms thereof.

Section 1.6 [Reserved].

Section 1.7 Sharing of Payments, etc. If any Uncommitted Purchaser or any Related Committed Purchaser (for purpose of this Section 1.7 only, a “Recipient”) shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) on account of any interest in the Receivable Interest owned by it in excess of its ratable share thereof, such Recipient shall forthwith purchase from the Uncommitted Purchasers and/or the Related Committed Purchasers entitled to a share of such amount participations in the percentage interests owned by such Persons as shall be necessary to cause such Recipient to share the excess payment ratably with each such other Person entitled thereto; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Recipient, such purchase from each such other Person shall be rescinded and each such other Person shall repay to the Recipient the purchase price paid by such Recipient for such participation to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such other Person’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such other Person’s required payment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the Recipient) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Recipient in respect of the total amount so recovered.

In addition to Seller’s rights pursuant to Section 1.3, Seller shall have the right (after providing the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent with at least two (2) Business Days prior notice), at any time following the reduction of the Aggregate Invested Amount to a level that is less than 10.0% of the original Purchase Limit, to repurchase all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Receivable Interests plus any Broken Funding Costs. The purchase price in respect thereof shall be an amount equal to the Aggregate Unpaids through the date of such repurchase, payable in immediately available funds in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

Section 3.3 CP Costs Payments. On each Settlement Date, Seller shall pay to the applicable Purchaser Agent (for the benefit of the related Conduit Purchaser) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the portion of the Invested Amounts of all Receivable Interests funded by such Conduit Purchaser with Commercial Paper or otherwise funded by Reliant Trust for the Calculation Period then most recently ended in accordance with Article II.

ARTICLE IV.

Bank Rate Fundings

Section 4.1 Bank Rate Fundings.

(a) Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the portion of outstanding Invested Amount of each Receivable Interest funded with Bank Rate Fundings shall accrue Yield for each day during its Interest Period at the applicable Yield Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. If any undivided interest in a Receivable Interest initially funded with Commercial Paper is sold (or otherwise participated) to the Liquidity Providers pursuant to a Liquidity Agreement, such undivided interest in such Receivable Interest shall be deemed to have an Interest Period commencing on the date of such sale.

(b) In connection with the use or administration of Daily One Month Term SOFR, the Administrator will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Administrator will promptly notify the Seller and the Purchaser Agents of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Daily One Month Term SOFR.

Section 4.2 Yield Payments. On the Settlement Date for each Receivable Interest that is funded with a Bank Rate Funding, Seller shall pay to each applicable Purchaser Agent (for the benefit of its Purchaser Group) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Yield thereon for the entire Interest Period of each related Bank Rate Funding in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3 [Reserved].

Section 4.4 Inability to Determine Rates; Change in Legality.

(a) Subject to Section 4.6, if, on any day with respect to any Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts:

(i) the Administrator determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Daily One Month Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or

(ii) the Required Purchaser Agents determine that for any reason in connection with any request for Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Daily One Month Term SOFR for any day with respect to Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the applicable Purchasers of funding such Purchase, and the Required Purchaser Agents have provided notice of such determination to the Administrator,

the Administrator will promptly so notify the Seller and each Purchaser.

Upon notice thereof by the Administrator to the Seller, any obligation of the Purchasers to fund Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts, and any right of the Seller to continue Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts or to convert Base Rate Invested Amounts to Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts) until the Administrator (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Purchaser Agents) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Seller may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts (to the extent of the affected Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts) or, failing that, the Seller will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Purchase of or conversion to Base Rate Invested Amounts in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Invested Amounts on such day. Upon any such conversion, the Seller shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted. Subject to Section 4.6, if the Administrator determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Daily One Month Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Invested Amounts shall be determined by the Administrator by reference to clause (a)(ii) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” until the Administrator revokes such determination.

(b) If any Purchaser determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Official Body has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Purchaser or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Purchases whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Daily One Month Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Daily One Month Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by such Purchaser to the Seller (through the Administrator), (a) any obligation of the Purchasers to fund Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts, and any right of the Seller to continue Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts or to convert Base Rate Invested Amounts to Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts, shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate on which Base Rate Invested Amounts shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrator by reference to clause (a)(ii) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”, in each case until such Purchaser notifies the Administrator and the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Seller shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Purchaser (with a copy to the Administrator), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts to Base Rate Invested Amounts (the interest rate on which Base Rate Invested Amounts of such Purchaser shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrator by reference to clause (a)(ii) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”) immediately, and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrator shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate by reference to clause (a)(ii) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate,” in each case until the Administrator is advised in writing by each affected Purchaser that it is no longer illegal for such Purchaser to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Daily One Month Term SOFR or Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Seller shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Section 4.5 Default Rate. From and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, all Bank Rate Fundings shall accrue Yield at the Default Rate.

Section 4.6 Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrator and the Seller may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the Administrator has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Purchasers and the Seller so long as the Administrator has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from the Required Purchaser Agents. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 4.6(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrator will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrator will promptly notify the Seller and the Purchasers of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrator will promptly notify the Seller of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (y) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrator or, if applicable, any Purchaser (or group of Purchasers) pursuant to this Section 4.6, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.6.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrator may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrator may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Seller's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period (i) the Seller may revoke any pending request for a Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts, conversion to or continuation of Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Seller will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Purchase of or conversion to Base Rate Invested Amounts, and (ii) any outstanding affected Daily One Month Term SOFR Invested Amounts will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Invested Amounts. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate.

(f) Rates. The Administrator does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability to the Seller hereunder, or otherwise for, any loss, damage or claim arising from or relating to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, or Daily One Month Term SOFR or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Daily One Month Term SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrator and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Daily One Month Term SOFR or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Seller. The Administrator may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Alternate Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Daily One Month Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Seller, any Purchaser or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(g) Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section 4.6:

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if such Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark (or component thereof) that is or may be used for determining the length of an interest period pursuant to this Agreement or (y) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark (or component thereof) that is or may be used for determining any frequency of making payments of interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 4.6.

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Term SOFR Reference Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 4.6.

“Benchmark Replacement” means with respect to any Benchmark Transition Event, the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrator and the Seller giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement to the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, if such Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than the Floor, such Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrator and the Seller giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time.

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1)

in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(2)

in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event”, the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be non-representative; provided that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (3) and even if any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date;

For the avoidance of doubt, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1)

a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2)

a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(3)

a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date will not be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Start Date” means, in the case of a Benchmark Transition Event, the earlier of (a) the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and (b) if such Benchmark Transition Event is a public statement or publication of information of a prospective event, the 90^th day prior to the expected date of such event as of such public statement or publication of information (or if the expected date of such prospective event is fewer than 90 days after such statement or publication, the date of such statement or publication).

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, the period (if any) (a) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance with this Section 4.6 and (b) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance with this Section 4.6.

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 5.1 Representations and Warranties of the Seller. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser, as to itself, as of the date hereof and as of the date of each Incremental Purchase and the date of each Reinvestment that:

(a) Organization and Qualification. The Seller’s only jurisdiction of organization is correctly set forth in the preamble of this Agreement. The Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation. The Seller is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of its properties or the nature of its activities (including transactions giving rise to Receivables), or both, requires it to be so qualified or, if not so qualified, the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

(b) Authority. The Seller has the legal power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents, to make the sales provided for herein and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(c) Execution and Binding Effect. Each of the Transaction Documents to which the Seller is a party has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Seller and (assuming the due and valid execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto), constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar Laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by general principles of equity, and will vest absolutely and unconditionally in the Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a valid undivided security interest in the Receivables purported to be assigned thereby, subject to no Liens whatsoever.

Section 5.2 Representations and Warranties of the Seller With Respect to Each Sale of Receivables. By selling undivided ownership interests in Receivables to the Purchasers, either by Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment, the Seller represents and warrants to the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser as of the date of such sale of an Incremental Purchase or Reinvestment (in addition to its other representations and warranties contained herein or made pursuant hereto) that:

(a) Purchase Notice. If such sale relates to an Incremental Purchase, all information set forth on the related Purchase Notice is true and correct as of the date of such Incremental Purchase.

(b) Assignment. This Agreement vests in the Administrator, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Receivable Interest in the Receivables, and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and constitutes a valid sale of or grant of a security interest in the Receivable Interest, enforceable against all creditors of and purchasers from the Seller.

(c) No Liens. Each Receivable, together with the related Contract and all purchase orders and other agreements related to such Receivable, is owned by the Seller free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein, and is not subject to any Dispute, except as provided herein. When each of the Purchasers makes a purchase of a Receivable Interest in such Receivable, it shall have acquired and shall continue to have maintained an undivided percentage ownership interest to the extent of its percentage of the Receivable Interest in such Receivable and in the Related Security and the Collections with respect thereto free and clear of any Lien, except as provided herein. The Seller has not and will not prior to the time of the sale of any such interest to the Purchasers have sold, pledged, assigned, transferred or subjected, and will not thereafter sell, pledge, assign, transfer or subject, to a Lien any of the Receivables, the Related Security or the Collections, other than the assignment of Receivable Interests therein to the Administrator, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Filings. On or prior to each Purchase and each recomputation of the Receivable Interest, all financing statements and other documents required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect and protect the Receivable Interest against all creditors of and purchasers from the Seller and all other Persons whatsoever will have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose and all filing fees and taxes, if any, payable in connection with such filings shall have been paid in full.

(g) Nature of Receivables. Each Receivable is, or will be, an eligible asset within the meaning of Rule 3a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time.

(h) Bona Fide Receivables. Each Receivable is an obligation of an Obligor arising out of a past, current or future sale or performance by the Applicable Originator, in accordance with the terms of the Contract giving rise to such Receivable. The Seller has no knowledge of any fact that should have led it to expect at the time of the initial creation of an interest in any Receivable hereunder that such Receivable would not be paid in full when due except with respect to any Dilution. Each Receivable classified as an “Eligible Receivable” by the Seller in any document or report delivered hereunder satisfies the requirements of eligibility contained in the definition of Eligible Receivable.

The Servicer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation. The Servicer is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of its properties or the nature of its activities, or both, requires it to be so qualified or, if not so qualified, the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Servicer and (assuming the due and valid execution and delivery thereof by the other parties thereto), constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar Laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by general principles of equity, and will vest absolutely and unconditionally in the Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) an ownership or security interest in the Receivables purported to be assigned thereby, subject to no Liens whatsoever. Upon the filing of the necessary financing statements under the UCC as in effect in the jurisdiction whose Law governs the perfection of the Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) ownership or security interests in the Receivables, such interests will be perfected under Article 9 of such UCC, prior to and enforceable against all creditors of and purchasers from the Seller and all other Persons whatsoever (other than for the Administrator, for benefit of the Secured Parties, and their successors and assigns).

(d) Authorizations and Filings. No authorization, consent, approval, license, exemption or other action by, and no registration, qualification, designation, declaration or filing with, any Official Body is or will be necessary or, in the opinion of the Servicer, advisable in connection with the execution and delivery by the Servicer of this Agreement, the consummation by the Servicer of the transactions herein or therein contemplated or the performance by the Servicer of or the compliance by the Servicer with the terms and conditions hereof or thereof, to ensure the legality, validity or enforceability hereof, or to ensure that the Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) will have an ownership and security interest in and to the Receivables which is perfected and prior to all other Liens (including competing ownership or security interests), other than the filing of financing statements under the UCC in the jurisdictions of each Originator’s Location and of the Seller’s Location.

(e) Absence of Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery by the Servicer of this Agreement, nor the consummation by the Servicer of the transactions herein contemplated, nor the performance by the Servicer of or the compliance by the Servicer with the terms and conditions hereof, will (i) violate any Law or (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of or a default under (A) the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Servicer or (B) any agreement or instrument, including, without limitation, any and all indentures, debentures, loans or other agreements to which the Servicer is a party or by which it or any of its properties (now owned or hereafter acquired) may be subject or bound, which would have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Servicer or result in rendering any debt in excess of $10,000,000 evidenced thereby due and payable prior to its maturity or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien pursuant to the terms of any such instrument or agreement upon any property (now owned or hereafter acquired) of the Servicer. The Servicer has not entered into any agreement with any Obligor prohibiting, restricting or conditioning the assignment of any portion of the Receivables.

(f) No Amortization Event. No event has occurred and is continuing and no condition exists which constitutes a Amortization Event.

(g) Accurate and Complete Disclosure. No information furnished by a Responsible Officer of the Servicer to the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby is false or misleading in any material respect as of the date as of which such information was furnished (including by omission of material information necessary to make such information not misleading).

(h) No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or to the knowledge of the Servicer, threatened, before any Official Body (A) asserting the invalidity of the Transaction Documents, (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or (C) seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect (i) the performance by either the Seller or the Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) the validity or enforceability of the Transaction Documents, the Contracts or any material amount of the Receivables.

(i) No Change in Ability to Perform. Since the date on which the Servicer accepted its duties hereunder, there has been no material adverse change in the ability of the Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder.

(j) Credit and Collection Policy. The Credit and Collection Policy has been complied with in all material respects in regard to each Receivable and related Contract.

(k) Financial Condition. The consolidated balance sheet of the AmerisourceBergen and its Consolidated Subsidiaries (which shall include the Servicer) as at the most recent Fiscal Year end and the related statements of income and cash flows of AmerisourceBergen and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended, certified by Ernst & Young LLP, independent accountants, or another nationally recognized firm of independent accountants, are available as a matter of public record. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of AmerisourceBergen and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as at most recent fiscal quarter end and the related unaudited statements of income and cash flows of AmerisourceBergen and its Consolidated Subsidiaries for the periods then ended are available as a matter of public record.

(l) Litigation. As of October 28, 2011, no injunction, decree or other decision has been issued or made by any Official Body that prevents, and to the knowledge of the Servicer, no threat by any Person has been made to attempt to obtain any such decision that would have a material adverse effect on, the conduct by the Servicer of a significant portion of its business operations or any portion of its business operations affecting the Receivables, and no litigation, investigation or proceeding asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, seeking to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or seeking any determination or ruling that might materially and adversely affect (A) the performance of the Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement, or (B) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Contracts or any material amount of the Receivables.

(m) Insurance. The Servicer currently maintains insurance with respect to its properties and businesses and causes its Subsidiaries to maintain insurance with respect to their properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by corporations engaged in the same or similar business and similarly situated, of such types and in such amounts as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by such other corporations including, without limitation, workers’ compensation insurance.

(n) ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, operations or properties of Performance Guarantor and ERISA Affiliates taken as a whole. Any excess of the accumulated benefit obligations under one or more Pension Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715) over the fair market value of the assets of such Pension Plan or Pension Plans is in an amount that could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, operations or properties of Performance Guarantor and ERISA Affiliates taken as a whole.

(o) Sanctioned Persons. None of the Servicer, any Subsidiary thereof or, to the knowledge of the Servicer, any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees, is a Sanctioned Person.

ABDC is hereby designated as, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Required Purchaser Agents may at any time following the occurrence of an Amortization Event designate as Servicer any Person to succeed ABDC or any successor Servicer; provided that the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

(b) ABDC may delegate, and ABDC hereby advises the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser that it has delegated, to the other Originators, as sub-servicers of the Servicer, certain of its duties and responsibilities as Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such other Originator. Without the prior written consent of the Required Purchaser Agents (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), ABDC shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Servicer to any Person other than (i) Seller, (ii) the other Originators, and (iii) with respect to certain Defaulted Receivables, outside collection agencies in accordance with its customary practices. Neither Seller nor any Originator shall be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of the Servicer delegated to it by ABDC. If at any time the Required Purchaser Agents shall designate as Servicer any Person other than ABDC, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by ABDC to Seller or the other Originators may, at the discretion of the Required Purchaser Agents, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Required Purchaser Agents to ABDC and to Seller and the other Originators.

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

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, (i) the Excluded Obligor Receivables shall be excluded from the calculations of (x) “Adjusted Dilution Ratio,” “Credit Memo Lag Time,” “Days Sales Outstanding,” “Default Horizon Ratio,” “Default Ratio,” “Delinquency Ratio,” “Dilution Horizon Ratio,” “Dilution Ratio,” “Dilution Reserve,” “Dilution Volatility Component,” “Loss Reserve,” “Net Pool Balance,” “Rebate Reserve,” “Required Reserve,” “Required Reserve Factor Floor,” “Servicing Fee,” “Servicing Reserve” and “Yield Reserve,” (y) any components of the calculations and terms described in clause (x) above and (z) each other item required to be reported on for purposes of any Settlement Report and Interim Settlement Report (other than the Outstanding Balance thereof as set forth in any such Settlement Report and Interim Settlement Report), in each case, for all purposes of this Agreement, any Settlement Report, any Interim Settlement Report and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) the Excluded Obligor Included Receivables constitute a portion of the Purchased Assets for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 8.2 Duties of Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

(b) The Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account. The Servicer shall (on or prior to the Closing Date with respect to each Lock-Box or Collection Account listed in the Account Disclosure Letter) effect a Collection Account Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit V (in each case, with such other changes as the Administrator may otherwise consent) with each bank party to a Collection Account at any time. In the case of any remittances received in any Lock-Box or Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of the Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Receivables or the Related Security, the Servicer shall promptly remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances. From and after the date the Administrator delivers to any Collection Bank a Collection Notice pursuant to Section 8.3, the Administrator may request that the Servicer, and the Servicer thereupon promptly shall instruct all Obligors with respect to the Receivables, to remit all payments thereon to a new depositary account specified by the Administrator and, at all times thereafter, Seller and the Servicer shall not deposit or otherwise credit, and shall not permit any other Person to deposit or otherwise credit to such new depositary account any cash or payment item other than Collections.

(c) The Servicer shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein. The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Seller and each Purchaser their respective shares of the Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, upon the request of the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent and after an Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Servicer shall be required to segregate Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Administrator such allocable share of Collections of Receivables set aside for each Purchaser on the first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(d) The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Required Purchaser Agents shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(e) The Servicer shall hold in trust for Seller and the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent, deliver or make available to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent all such Records, at a place selected by the Administrator. The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following receipt thereof turn over to Seller any cash collections or other cash proceeds received with respect to Indebtedness not constituting Receivables. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent, furnish to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for each Purchaser pursuant to Article II.

(f) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to any Originator or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Required Purchaser Agents, be applied as a Collection of any Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

Section 8.3 Collection Notices. The Administrator is authorized at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event or an Unmatured Amortization Event to date and to deliver to the Collection Banks the Collection Notices. Seller hereby transfers to the Administrator for the benefit of the Secured Parties, effective when the Administrator delivers such notice, the exclusive ownership and control of each Lock-Box and the Collection Accounts and, in connection therewith, agrees to cause each Collection Bank to modify the name on each Lock-Box and Collection Account as requested by the Administrator. In case any authorized signatory of Seller whose signature appears on a Collection Account Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force. Seller hereby authorizes the Administrator, and agrees that the Administrator shall be entitled (i) at any time after delivery of the Collection Notices, to endorse Seller’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections, (ii) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security, and (iii) at any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, to take such action as shall be reasonably necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Administrator rather than Seller.

Section 8.4 Responsibilities of Seller. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Administrator, on behalf of Secured Parties, of the Administrator’s rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, any Originator or Seller from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Seller or any Originator thereunder.

Section 8.5 Settlement Reports.

(a) The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Administrator (with an electronic copy to each Purchaser Agent) (i) on each Settlement Reporting Date, a Settlement Report (certified by an Authorized Officer of the Servicer) and an electronic file of the data contained therein and (ii) at such times as the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent shall request, a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables; provided that, (i) if an Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent may request that the Servicer deliver a Settlement Report more frequently than monthly, but no more frequently than weekly, and (ii) if ABDC fails to have debt ratings at or above BBB- by Standard & Poor’s, Baa3 by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ or BBB- by Fitch, the Servicer shall, until such time as ABDC has debt ratings at or above BBB- by Standard & Poor’s, Baa3 by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and BBB- by Fitch or as otherwise consented to in writing by the Administrator and the Required Purchaser Agents, deliver a Settlement Report weekly.

(b) Upon the request of the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent (but not more frequently than every quarter), the Servicer shall provide in writing to the Administrator (which shall promptly forward a copy to each Purchaser Agent) the list of Obligors under Contracts related to the Receivables including, for each Obligor added to the list, the name, address, telephone number and account number of such Obligor and if there have been changes in the name, address, telephone number or account number of any existing Obligor, the revisions shall be provided.

Section 8.6 Servicing Fee. As compensation for the Servicer’s servicing activities on their behalf, the Servicer shall be paid the Servicing Fee in arrears on each Settlement Date out of Collections.

(vi) the commingling of Collections of Receivables at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby, the use of the proceeds of any Purchase, the Purchased Assets or any other investigation, litigation or proceeding relating to Seller, the Servicer or any Originator in which any Indemnified Party becomes involved as a result of any of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(xv) the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Net Pool Balance as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable at the time so included; and

(xvi) any civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC or any other Official Body administering any Anti-Corruption Law or Sanctions, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable documented legal fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by, any Indemnified Party in connection with the Transaction Documents as a result of any action of the Seller or any of its respective Affiliates.

Section 10.2 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the issuance of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Interpretation No. 46, Statements of Financial Accounting Standards Nos. 166 and 167, any future statements or interpretations issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any successor thereto or any other change in accounting standards or the issuance of any other pronouncement, release or interpretation, causes or requires the consolidation of all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of the Seller or any Conduit Purchaser with the assets and liabilities of the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any other Funding Source, such event shall constitute a circumstance on which such Funding Source may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 10.2.

Section 10.3 Other Costs and Expenses. Seller shall pay to the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including without limitation, the cost of its auditors auditing the books, records and procedures of Seller, rating agency fees, reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of independent legal counsel with respect thereto and with respect to providing advice as to their respective rights and remedies under this Agreement but excluding salaries and similar overhead costs of each Purchaser Group and the Administrator (it being understood that, unless otherwise consented to by the Seller, the Administrator and each Purchaser Group shall endeavor to utilize the same counsel to the extent reasonably feasible).

(d) Unless otherwise advised in writing by a Purchaser Agent or by any Purchaser on whose behalf such Purchaser Agent is purportedly acting, each party to this Agreement may assume that (i) such Purchaser Agent is acting for the benefit of each of the Purchasers in respect of which such Purchaser Agent is identified as being the “Purchaser Agent” in the definition of “Purchaser Agent” hereto, as well as for the benefit of each assignee or other transferee from any such Person, and (ii) each action taken by such Purchaser Agent has been duly authorized and approved by all necessary action on the part of the Purchasers on whose behalf it is purportedly acting. Each Purchaser Agent and its Purchaser(s) shall agree amongst themselves as to the circumstances and procedures for removal, resignation and replacement of such Purchaser Agent.

Section 11.5 Notice of Amortization Events. Neither any Purchaser Agent nor the Administrator shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event unless such Purchaser Agent or Administrator has received notice from any Purchaser, Purchaser Agent, the Servicer or the Seller stating that an Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event has occurred hereunder and describing such Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event. In the event that the Administrator receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to each Purchaser Agent whereupon each such Purchaser Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to its Purchasers. In the event that a Purchaser Agent receives such a notice (other than from the Administrator), it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrator. The Administrator shall take such action concerning an Amortization Event or Unmatured Amortization Event as may be directed by the Required Purchaser Agents (unless such action otherwise requires the consent of all Purchaser Agents), but until the Administrator receives such directions, the Administrator may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as the Administrator deems advisable and in the best interests of the Purchasers and Purchaser Agents.

Section 11.6 Non-Reliance on Administrator, Purchaser Agents and Other Purchasers. Each Purchaser expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrator, the Purchaser Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, members, partners, certificateholders, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrator, or any Purchaser Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Seller, Servicer or any Originator, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent, as applicable. Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Administrator and the Purchaser Agents that, independently and without reliance upon the Administrator, Purchaser Agents or any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Seller, Servicer or the Originators, and the Receivables and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any Transaction Document. Except for items specifically required to be delivered hereunder, the Administrator shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Purchaser Agent with any information concerning the Seller, Servicer or the Originators or any of their Affiliates that comes into the possession of the Administrator or any of its officers, directors, members, partners, certificateholders, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

Section 11.7 Administrators and Affiliates. Each of the Purchasers and the Administrator and their Affiliates may extend credit to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, debt, entity or other business with the Seller, Servicer or any Originator or any of their Affiliates. With respect to the acquisition of the Eligible Receivables pursuant to this Agreement, each of the Purchaser Agents and the Administrator shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Purchaser and may exercise the same as though it were not such an agent, and the terms “Purchaser” and “Purchasers” shall include, to the extent applicable, each of the Purchaser Agents and the Administrator in their individual capacities.

Section 11.8 Indemnification. Each Related Committed Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrator (but solely in its capacity as Administrator) and its officers, directors, members, partners, certificateholders, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Seller, the Servicer or any Originator and without limiting the obligation of the Seller, the Servicer, or any Originator to do so), ratably (based on its Commitment) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, settlements, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever (including in connection with any investigative or threatened proceeding, whether or not the Administrator or such Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrator or such Person as a result of, or related to, any of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the execution, delivery or performance of the Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection therewith (but excluding any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, settlements, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrator or such Person as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

Section 11.9 Successor Administrator. The Administrator may, upon at least five (5) days notice to the Seller and each Purchaser and Purchaser Agent, resign as Administrator. Such resignation shall not become effective until a successor agent is appointed by the Required Purchaser Agents and has accepted such appointment. Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Administrator hereunder by a successor Administrator, such successor Administrator shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrator, and the retiring Administrator shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents. After any retiring Administrator’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of Article X and this Article XI shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrator.

Section 11.10 Erroneous Payments. (a) If the Administrator (x) notifies a Purchaser or an Indemnified Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or an Indemnified Party (any such Purchaser, Indemnified Party or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrator has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Administrator) received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrator or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Purchaser, Indemnified Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof) (provided, that, without limiting any other rights or remedies (whether at law or in equity), the Administrator may not make any such demand under this clause (a) with respect to an Erroneous Payment unless such demand is made within five (5) Business Days of the date of receipt of such Erroneous Payment by the applicable Payment Recipient), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrator pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 11.10 and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrator, and such Purchaser or Indemnified Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrator the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrator) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrator in same day funds at the greater of the sum of (i) the Prime Rate plus (ii) 1.0% and a rate determined by the Administrator in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrator to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Purchaser and Indemnified Party and any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Indemnified Party (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrator (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrator (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrator (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Purchaser or Indemnified Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

(i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrator to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Purchaser or Indemnified Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Administrator of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrator pursuant to this clause (ii).

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Administrator pursuant to this clause (b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to the foregoing clause (a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

(c) Each Purchaser and Indemnified Party hereby authorizes the Administrator to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Purchaser or Indemnified Party under any Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrator to such Purchaser or Indemnified Party under any Transaction Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Administrator has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).

(d) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Administrator may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrator shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Purchaser or Indemnified Party, to the rights and interests of such Purchaser or Indemnified Party, as the case may be) under the Transaction Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Recourse Obligations owed by the Seller or any other Seller Party, Purchaser, Administrator, Purchaser Agent or Funding Source; provided that this Section 11.10 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Recourse Obligations of the Seller relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Recourse Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrator; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrator from, or on behalf of (including through the exercise of remedies under any Transaction Document), the Seller for the purpose of making a payment on the Recourse Obligations.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrator for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(f) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 11.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrator, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Purchaser or Indemnified Party, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Recourse Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document.

ARTICLE XII.
ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

Section 12.1 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Assignments.

(a) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, no Seller Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or delegate any of its duties hereunder or under any Transaction Document without the prior consent of the Administrator and the Purchaser Agents.

(b) Participations. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any Purchaser may sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in the interests of such Purchaser hereunder; provided that, no Purchaser shall grant any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Such Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for performing its obligations hereunder, and the Seller, each Purchaser Agent and the Administrator shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Purchaser in connection with such Purchaser’s rights and obligations hereunder. A Purchaser shall not agree with a Participant to restrict such Purchaser’s right to agree to any amendment hereto, except amendments that require the consent of all Purchasers.

(c) Assignments by Certain Related Committed Purchasers. Any Related Committed Purchaser may assign to one or more Persons (each a “Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser”), reasonably acceptable to the related Purchaser Agent, any portion of its Commitment pursuant to a supplement hereto, substantially in the form of Exhibit VIII with any changes as have been approved by the parties thereto (each, a “Transfer Supplement”), executed by each such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser, such selling Related Committed Purchaser, such related Purchaser Agent and the Administrator and so long as no Amortization Event has occurred with the consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Any such assignment by Related Committed Purchaser cannot be for an amount less than $10,000,000. Upon (i) the execution of the Transfer Supplement, (ii) delivery of an executed copy thereof to the Seller, such related Purchaser Agent and the Administrator and (iii) payment by the Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser to the selling Related Committed Purchaser of the agreed purchase price, if any, such selling Related Committed Purchaser shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Related Committed Purchaser party hereto and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Related Committed Purchaser hereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto. The amount of the Commitment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser allocable to such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser shall be equal to the amount of the Commitment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser transferred regardless of the purchase price, if any, paid therefor. The Transfer Supplement shall be an amendment hereof only to the extent necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Related Committed Purchaser as a “Related Committed Purchaser” and any resulting adjustment of the selling Related Committed Purchaser’s Commitment.

(d) Assignments to Liquidity Providers and other Funding Source Providers. Any Conduit Purchaser may at any time grant to one or more of its Liquidity Providers or other Funding Source, participating interests (or voting rights or a security interest and right of foreclosure thereon) in its portion of the Receivable Interests. In the event of any such grant by such Conduit Purchaser of a participating interest to a Liquidity Provider or other Funding Source, such Conduit Purchaser shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder. The Seller agrees that each Liquidity Provider and Funding Source of any Conduit Purchaser hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 1.7.

(e) Other Assignment by Uncommitted Purchasers. Each party hereto agrees and consents (i) to any Uncommitted Purchaser’s assignment, participation, grant of security interests in or other transfers of any portion of, or any of its beneficial interest in, the Receivable Interests (or portion thereof), including without limitation to any collateral agent in connection with its commercial paper program, if any, and (ii) to the complete assignment by any Uncommitted Purchaser of all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Person with prior notice to the other parties hereto, and upon such assignment such Uncommitted Purchaser shall be released from all obligations and duties, if any, hereunder; provided that, such Uncommitted Purchaser may not, without the prior consent of its Related Committed Purchasers (and, in the case of any assignment by an Uncommitted Purchaser that is not a Conduit Purchaser, unless an Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, the Seller), make any such transfer of its rights hereunder unless the assignee (i) if it is a Conduit Purchaser, is principally engaged in the purchase of assets similar to the assets being purchased hereunder, (ii) has as its Purchaser Agent the Purchaser Agent of the assigning Uncommitted Purchaser and (iii) if it is a Conduit Purchaser, issues commercial paper with credit ratings substantially comparable to the ratings of the assigning Conduit Purchaser and, provided, further, that no such consent of the Seller shall be required if the assignee is a Purchaser, an Affiliate of a Purchaser or an Approved Fund. Any assigning Uncommitted Purchaser shall deliver to any assignee a Transfer Supplement with any changes as have been approved by the parties thereto, duly executed by such Uncommitted Purchaser, assigning any portion of its interest in the Receivable Interests to its assignee. Such Uncommitted Purchaser shall promptly (i) notify each of the other parties hereto of such assignment and (ii) take all further action that the assignee reasonably requests in order to evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in such interest in the Receivable Interests and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights of such Uncommitted Purchaser hereunder. Upon the assignment of any portion of its interest in the Receivable Interests, the assignee shall have all of the rights hereunder with respect to such interest (except that the CP Costs therefor shall thereafter accrue at the rate, determined with respect to the assigning Conduit Purchaser, if applicable, unless the Seller, the related Purchaser Agent and the assignee shall have agreed upon a different CP Costs).

(f) Opinions of Counsel. If required by the Administrator or the applicable Purchaser Agent or to maintain the ratings of any Conduit Purchaser, each Transfer Supplement must be accompanied by an opinion of counsel of the assignee as to such matters as the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent may reasonably request.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 13.1 Waivers and Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(ii) without the written consent of the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of any Transaction Document if the effect thereof is to affect the rights (including, without limitation, fees and indemnities) or duties of such Administrator or Purchaser Agent,

and any material amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall require satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

Section 13.2 Notices. Except as provided in this Section 13.2, all communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telecopy or electronic facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to the other parties hereto at their respective addresses or telecopy numbers set forth on the signature pages hereof or at such other address or telecopy number as such Person may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to each of the other parties hereto.

If the written confirmation differs from the action taken by the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent, the records of such Administrator or Purchaser Agent shall govern absent manifest error.

Section 13.3 Protection of Administrator’s Security Interest.

(a) Seller agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents, and take all actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent may request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the Administrator’s security interest in the Purchased Assets, or to enable the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser to exercise and enforce their rights and remedies hereunder. At any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event the Administrator may, or the Administrator may direct Seller or the Servicer to, notify the Obligors of Receivables, at Seller’s expense, of the ownership or security interests of the Administrator (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to the Administrator or its designee. Seller or the Servicer (as applicable) shall, at the Administrator’s request, withhold the identities of the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and each Purchaser in any such notification.

(b) If any Seller Party fails to perform any of its obligations under Section 13.3(a) and notice of such failure is given to the Seller Party, the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser may (but shall not be required to) perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and the costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller as provided in Section 10.3. Each Seller Party irrevocably authorizes the Administrator at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Administrator, and appoints the Administrator as its attorney-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Seller Party (i) to execute on behalf of Seller as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Administrator’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Administrator for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Receivables and (ii) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Receivables as a financing statement in such offices as the Administrator in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the Administrator’s security interest in the Purchased Assets, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Administrator shall provide the Seller with copies of any such filings. This appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Each of the Seller Parties (A) hereby authorizes the Administrator to file financing statements and other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables and Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the signature or other authorization of such Seller Party, in such form and in such offices as the Administrator reasonably determines appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the security interest of the Administrator hereunder, (B) acknowledges and agrees that it is not authorized to, and will not, file financing statements or other filing or recording documents with respect to the Receivables or Related Security (including any amendments thereto, or continuation or termination statements thereof), without the express prior written approval by the Administrator, consenting to the form and substance of such filing or recording document, and (C) approves, authorizes and ratifies any filings or recordings made by or on behalf of the Administrator in connection with the perfection of the security interests in favor of Seller or the Administrator.

In addition, each party hereto hereby agrees that no liability or obligation of any Purchaser hereunder for fees, expenses or indemnities shall constitute a claim (as defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code) against such Purchaser unless such Purchaser has received cash from its portion of the Receivable Interests sufficient to pay such amounts, and such amounts are not necessary to pay outstanding commercial paper notes or other indebtedness of such Purchaser.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW (EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS, TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED THEREIN) AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION OF THE OWNERSHIP INTEREST OF SELLER OR THE OWNERSHIP OR SECURITY INTEREST OF THE ADMINISTRATOR (FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE SECURED PARTIES) IN ANY OF THE COLLATERAL IS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby consents to the sale, transfer and assignment, from time to time, of Defaulted Receivables from the Seller to ABDC pursuant to an Assignment Agreement in form and substance substantially similar to Exhibit XVII (each, a “Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement”), provided that each of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied with respect to such Defaulted Receivables prior to effectiveness of such Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement (such conditions, the “Defaulted Receivables Assignment Conditions”):

(i) the Seller (or the Servicer on its behalf) has delivered to the Administrator an executed officer’s certificate, in form and substance substantially similar to Exhibit XVIII (each, a “Defaulted Receivables Certificate”), that (A) specifically identifies in reasonable detail each of the Defaulted Receivables that are contemplated to be sold, transferred and assigned by the Seller to ABDC pursuant to a Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement (such Receivables, “Subject Defaulted Receivables”), (B) specifies the proposed date of effectiveness of such Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement, that shall be no earlier than ten (10) Business Days following the delivery date of such Defaulted Receivables Certificate and (C) attaches a copy of the proposed Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement;

(ii) as of both the delivery date of such Defaulted Receivables Certificate and the proposed effective date of such Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement, no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from the execution and performance of such Defaulted Receivables Assignment Agreement, that would constitute an Amortization Event or an Unmatured Amortization Event;
