PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS. Certain terms that are capitalized and used throughout this Agreement are defined in Exhibit I. References in the Exhibits hereto to the “Agreement” refer to this Agreement, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.
In consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT; JOINDER OF PARTIES; REBALANCING
(a)    Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety, as of the Closing Date, the Third Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 13, 2009 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Original Agreement”), among the Seller, the Servicer, the various Conduit Purchasers, Committed Purchasers and Purchaser Agents from time to time party thereto and the Administrator. Notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Original Agreement by this Agreement, (i) the Seller and Servicer shall continue to be liable to each of the parties to the Original Agreement or any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person (as such terms are defined in the Original Agreement) for fees and expenses which are accrued and unpaid under the Original Agreement on the date hereof and all agreements to indemnify such parties in connection with events or conditions arising or existing prior to the effective date of this Agreement, (ii) the security interest created under the Original Agreement in favor of the Administrator shall remain in full force and effect under this Agreement and (iii) all Investment and Discount outstanding or owing under the Original Agreement shall be and constitute Investment and Discount outstanding or owing under this Agreement. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each reference to the Original Agreement in any other document, instrument or agreement shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, unless expressly herein stated to the contrary, is intended to amend, modify or otherwise affect any other instrument, document or agreement executed and/or delivered in connection with the Original Agreement.
(b)    Joinder of Parties. Effective as of the date hereof, (i) Liberty Street Funding LLC hereby becomes a party to this Agreement as a Conduit Purchaser hereunder with all the rights,

 
 
 




interests, duties and obligations of a Conduit Purchaser hereunder, (ii) each of The Bank of Nova Scotia and Branch Banking and Trust Company hereby becomes a party to this Agreement as a Committed Purchaser hereunder with all the rights, interests, duties and obligations of a Committed Purchaser hereunder, (iii) Branch Banking and Trust Company, as a Committed Purchaser, shall constitute the sole member of a new Purchaser Group, which does not initially include a Conduit Purchaser, and Branch Banking and Trust Company hereby appoints itself as the Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group, (iv) The Bank of Nova Scotia, as a Committed Purchaser and Liberty Street Funding LLC, as its related Conduit Purchaser, shall constitute the members of a new Purchaser Group, and The Bank of Nova Scotia and Liberty Street Funding LLC hereby appoint The Bank of Nova Scotia as the Purchaser Agent for such Purchaser Group, and (v) each of Branch Banking and Trust Company and The Bank of Nova Scotia hereby becomes a party to this Agreement as a Purchaser Agent hereunder with all the rights, interests, duties and obligations of a Purchaser Agent hereunder.
(c)    Initial Purchases; Rebalancing. Concurrently herewith, the Seller is requesting that the Purchasers fund a new Purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to a Purchase Notice delivered in accordance with Section 1.2(a). Such Purchase Notice provides that each Purchaser Group will fund a non-ratable portion of the aggregate Purchase such that, after giving effect to such Purchase, each Purchaser Group’s outstanding Investment will be equal to its Ratable Share of the Aggregate Investment.
(d)    Certain Consents. The parties hereto hereby consent to the joinder of Branch Banking and Trust Company, Liberty Street Funding LLC and The Bank of Nova Scotia as parties hereto on the terms set forth in clause (b) above, to the non-ratable funding of the foregoing initial Purchase on the terms set forth in clause (c) above, in each case, as set forth above on a one-time basis.
ARTICLE I.
AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE PURCHASES
Section 1.1.    Purchase Facility.
(a)    On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Seller may, from time to time before each applicable Facility Termination Date, request that the Purchasers ratably (based on the Ratable Share in their respective Purchaser Groups) make investments with regard to the Purchased Interest from the Seller from time to time from the date hereof to each applicable Facility Termination Date in accordance with Section 1.2. Each purchase requested by the Seller pursuant to Section 1.2(a) (each, a “Purchase”) shall be made ratably by the Purchasers (based on the Ratable Share in their respective Purchaser Groups), and each Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of each Purchase shall be made and funded (i) if such Purchaser Group contains a Conduit Purchaser and such Conduit Purchaser elects (in its sole discretion) to make and fund such portion of such Purchase, by the Conduit Purchaser in such Purchaser Group or (ii) if such Purchaser Group does not contain a Conduit Purchaser or if the Conduit Purchaser in such Purchaser Group declines (in its sole discretion) to make or fund such portion of such Purchase, by the Committed Purchaser in such Purchaser Group. Subject to Section 1.4(b) concerning reinvestments, at no time will any Conduit Purchaser have any obligation to make any Purchase or reinvestment. Each Committed Purchaser

 
2
 




severally hereby agrees, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, to make Purchases before its applicable Facility Termination Date that are requested pursuant to Section 1.2(a), based on the Ratable Share of its applicable Purchaser Group; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall any Purchaser make any Purchase or reinvestment hereunder if, after giving effect to such Purchase or reinvestment (i) the Group Investment of such Purchaser’s Purchaser Group would exceed the Group Commitment of such Purchaser’s Purchaser Group, (ii) the Aggregate Investment would (after giving effect to all Purchases and reinvestments on such date) exceed the Purchase Limit or (iii) the Purchased Interest would exceed 100%.
(b)    The Seller may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, reduce the unfunded portion of the Purchase Limit in whole or in part (but not below the amount which would cause the Group Investment of any Purchaser Group to exceed its Group Commitment (after giving effect to such reduction)); provided that each partial reduction shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and unless terminated in whole, the Purchase Limit shall in no event be reduced below $150,000,000. Such reduction shall at the option of the Seller be applied either (i) ratably to reduce the Group Commitment of each Purchaser Group or (ii) to terminate the Group Commitment of any one Purchaser Group.
(c)    The Seller may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ (but not greater than forty-five (45) days’) prior written notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, repay in whole (but not in part) the entire Aggregate Investment (and all accrued and unpaid Discount thereon) by making a cash payment of such amount to the Administrator for the benefit of the Purchasers. Such payments shall be made to the Administrator for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers (ratably based on the Investments outstanding at such time) and the Investment (and accrued and unpaid Discount) of each Purchaser shall only be deemed to be reduced by such payment when such payment is finally so paid to such Purchaser in full in cash. All payments as repayments made pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to any applicable Termination Fee payable to any Purchaser at such time in connection therewith.
Section 1.2.    Making Purchases.
(a)    Each Purchase (but not reinvestment) of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder may be made on any Business Day upon the Seller’s irrevocable written notice in the form of Annex B (each, a “Purchase Notice”) delivered to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent in accordance with Section 6.2 (which notice must be received by the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent before 11:00 a.m., New York City time) at least two Business Days before the requested Purchase Date, which notice shall specify: (A) the date of such Purchase (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the aggregate amount requested to be paid to the Seller (such aggregate amount, which shall not be less than $500,000 or such lesser amount as agreed to by the Administrator and the Majority Purchaser Agents) and (C) the pro forma calculation of the Purchased Interest after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Investment.
(b)    Funding Purchases.

 
3
 




(i)    Not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of each Purchase of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest hereunder, each applicable Purchaser shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Exhibit II, deliver to the Administrator by wire transfer of immediately available funds at the account from time to time designated in writing by the Administrator, an amount equal to the portion of Investment relating to the undivided percentage ownership interest then being funded by such Purchaser. On the date of each Purchase, the Administrator will make available to the Seller, in same day funds at the account from time to time designated in writing by the Seller to the Administrator, the amount of Investment to be funded in accordance with this Agreement by all Purchasers in respect of such Purchase.
(ii)    Unless the Administrator shall have received notice from a Purchaser or Purchaser Agent prior to the proposed Purchase Date of any Purchase that such Purchaser’s or Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group will not make available to the Administrator such Purchaser Group’s share of such Purchase, the Administrator may assume that such Purchaser Group has made such share available on such date in accordance with the foregoing clause (b)(i) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Seller a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Purchaser Group has not in fact made its share of the applicable Purchase available to the Administrator, then the Committed Purchaser in such Purchaser Group and the Seller severally agree to pay to the Administrator forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Seller to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrator, at (i) in the case of such Committed Purchaser, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrator in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Seller, the Base Rate. If such Committed Purchaser pays such amount to the Administrator, then such amount shall constitute such Committed Purchaser’s Investment included in such Purchase. If the Seller and such Committed Purchaser shall pay such interest to the Administrator for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrator shall promptly remit to the Seller the amount of such interest paid by the Seller for such period. Any such payment by the Seller shall be without prejudice to any claim the Seller may have against a Committed Purchaser that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrator.
(c)    Effective on the date of each Purchase pursuant to this Section 1.2 and each reinvestment pursuant to Section 1.4, the Seller hereby sells and assigns to the Administrator for the benefit of the Purchasers (ratably, according to each such Purchaser’s Investment) an undivided percentage ownership interest in: (i) each Pool Receivable then existing, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, and (iii) all Collections with respect to, and other proceeds of, such Pool Receivables and Related Security.
(d)    To secure all of the Seller’s obligations (monetary or otherwise) under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, whether now or hereafter existing or arising, due or to become due, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, the Seller hereby grants to the Administrator, for the benefit of the Purchasers, a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest (including any undivided interest of the Seller) in, to and under all of the

 
4
 




following, whether now or hereafter owned, existing or arising: (i) all Pool Receivables, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iii) all Collections with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iv) the Lock-Box Accounts and all amounts on deposit therein, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such Lock-Box Accounts and amounts on deposit therein, (v) all rights (but none of the obligations) of the Seller under the Sale Agreement and (vi) all proceeds of, and all amounts received or receivable under any or all of, the foregoing (collectively, the “Pool Assets”). The Administrator, for the benefit of the Purchasers, shall have, with respect to the Pool Assets, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Administrator and the Purchasers, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC. The Seller hereby authorizes the Administrator (for the benefit of the Purchasers) to file financing statements in each jurisdiction the Administrator deems necessary and appropriate to perfect its security interest in the Pool Assets, describing the collateral covered thereby as “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the collateral described in this Agreement.
(e)    Except with respect to the increases in Commitments contemplated by Section 1.11, the Seller may, with the written consent of the Administrator and each Purchaser, add additional Persons as Purchasers (either to an existing Purchaser Group or by creating new Purchaser Groups) or cause an existing Purchaser to increase its Commitment in connection with a corresponding increase in the Purchase Limit; provided, however, that the Commitment of any Purchaser may only be increased with the consent of such Purchaser, such consent to be in such Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion. Each new Purchaser (or Purchaser Group) and each Purchaser increasing its Commitment shall become a party hereto or increase its Commitment, as the case may be, by executing and delivering to the Administrator and the Seller an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex D hereto (which Assumption Agreement shall, in the case of any new Purchaser or Purchasers be executed by each Person in such new Purchaser’s Purchaser Group).
(f)    Each Committed Purchaser’s obligation hereunder shall be several, such that the failure of any Committed Purchaser to make a payment in connection with any Purchase hereunder shall not relieve any other Committed Purchaser of its obligation hereunder to make payment for any Purchase. Further, in the event any Committed Purchaser fails to satisfy its obligation to make a Purchase as required hereunder, upon receipt of notice of such failure from the Administrator (or any relevant Purchaser Agent), subject to the limitations set forth herein, the non-defaulting Committed Purchasers in such defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group shall purchase the defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of the related Purchase pro rata in proportion to their relative Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to the Commitment Percentage of the defaulting Committed Purchaser; it being understood that a defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of any Purchase shall be first put to the Committed Purchasers in such defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Purchaser Group and thereafter if there are no other Committed Purchasers in such Purchaser Group or if such other Committed Purchasers are also defaulting Committed Purchasers, then such defaulting Committed Purchaser’s Commitment Percentage of such Purchase shall be put to each other Purchaser Group ratably and applied in accordance with this paragraph (f)). Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph (f) to the contrary, no Committed Purchaser shall be required to make a Purchase pursuant

 
5
 




to this paragraph for an amount which would cause the aggregate Investment of such Committed Purchaser (after giving effect to such Purchase) to exceed its Commitment.
Section 1.3.    Purchased Interest Computation. The Purchased Interest shall be initially computed on the date of the initial Purchase hereunder. Thereafter, until the Facility Termination Date, such Purchased Interest shall be automatically recomputed (or deemed to be recomputed) on each Business Day other than a Termination Day. From and after the occurrence of any Termination Day, the Purchased Interest shall (until the event(s) giving rise to such Termination Day are satisfied or are waived in accordance with the terms hereof) be deemed to be 100%. The Purchased Interest shall become zero when the Aggregate Investment thereof and Aggregate Discount thereon shall have been paid in full, all the amounts owed by the Seller and the Servicer hereunder to each Purchaser, the Administrator and any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person are paid in full, and the Servicer shall have received the accrued Servicing Fee thereon.
Section 1.4.    Settlement Procedures.
(a)    The collection of the Pool Receivables shall be administered by the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement. The Seller shall provide to the Servicer on a timely basis all information needed for such administration, including notice of the occurrence of any Termination Day and current computations of the Purchased Interest.
(b)    The Servicer shall, on each day on which Collections of Pool Receivables are received (or deemed received) by the Seller or the Servicer:
(i)    set aside and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator (with the consent or at the direction of a Simple Majority of the Purchasers), segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator if, at the time of such request, there exists an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event or if the failure to so segregate reasonably could be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect) for the benefit of each Purchaser Group, out of such Collections, first, an amount equal to the Aggregate Discount accrued through such day for each Portion of Investment and not previously set aside, second, an amount equal to the fees set forth in each Purchaser Group Fee Letter accrued and unpaid through such day, and third, to the extent funds are available therefor, an amount equal to the aggregate of each Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of the Servicing Fee accrued through such day and not previously set aside;
(ii)    subject to Section 1.4(f), if such day is not a Termination Day, remit to the Seller, ratably, on behalf of each Purchaser Group, the remainder of such Collections. Such remainder shall, to the extent representing a return on the Aggregate Investment, ratably, according to each Purchaser’s Investment, be automatically reinvested in Pool Receivables, and in the Related Security, Collections and other proceeds with respect thereto; provided, however, that if the Purchased Interest would exceed 100%, then the Servicer shall not reinvest, but shall set aside and hold in trust for the benefit of the Purchasers (and shall, at the request of the Administrator (with the consent or at the direction of a Simple Majority of the Purchasers), segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator if, at the time of such request, there exists an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event

or if the failure to so segregate reasonably could be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect) a portion of such Collections that, together with the other Collections set aside pursuant to this paragraph, shall equal the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%; provided, further, that if the Facility Termination Date has been extended pursuant to Section 1.10 and any Purchaser (or its Purchaser Agent) has provided notice (an “Exiting Notice”) to the Administrator, the Seller and the Servicer of such Purchaser’s refusal, pursuant to Section 1.10, to extend its (or its Committed Purchaser’s) Commitment hereunder (an “Exiting Purchaser”) then such Collections shall not be reinvested and shall instead be held in trust for the benefit of such Purchaser and applied in accordance with clause (iii) below;
(iii)    if such day is a Termination Day (or any day following the provision of an Exiting Notice), set aside, segregate and hold in trust (and shall, at the request of the Administrator (with the consent or at the direction of a Simple Majority of the Purchasers), segregate in a separate account approved by the Administrator) for the benefit of each Purchaser Group the entire remainder of the Collections (or in the case of an Exiting Purchaser, an amount equal to such Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections based on its Investment; provided, that solely for the purpose of determining such Purchaser’s ratable share of such Collections, such Purchaser’s Investment shall be deemed to remain constant from the date of the provision of an Exiting Notice until the date such Purchaser’s Investment has been paid in full; it being understood that if such day is also a Termination Day, such Exiting Purchaser’s Investment shall be recalculated taking into account amounts received by such Purchaser in respect of this parenthetical and thereafter Collections shall be set aside for such Purchaser ratably in respect of its Investment (as recalculated)); provided, that if amounts are set aside and held in trust on any Termination Day of the type described in clause (a) of the definition of “Termination Day” (or any day following the provision of an Exiting Notice) and, thereafter, the conditions set forth in Section 2 of Exhibit II are satisfied or waived by the Administrator and a Simple Majority of the Purchasers (or in the case of an Exiting Notice, such Exiting Notice has been revoked by the related Exiting Purchaser and written notice thereof has been provided by such Exiting Purchaser or its Purchaser Agent to the Administrator, the Seller and the Servicer), such previously set-aside amounts shall, to the extent representing a return on Aggregate Investment (or the Investment of the Exiting Purchaser) and ratably in accordance with each Purchaser’s Investment, be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) on the day of such subsequent satisfaction or waiver of conditions or revocation of such Exiting Notice; and
(iv)    release to the Seller (subject to Section 1.4(f)) for its own account any Collections in excess of: (x) amounts required to be reinvested in accordance with clause (ii) or the proviso to clause (iii) plus (y) the amounts that are required to be set aside pursuant to clause (i), the proviso to clause (ii) and clause (iii) plus (z) the Seller’s Share of the Servicing Fee accrued and unpaid through such day and all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Servicer for servicing, collecting and administering the Pool Receivables.

Within three Business Days of the last day of each Yield Period with respect to any Portion of Investment, the applicable Purchaser Agent will notify the Servicer and the Administrator by e-mail of the amount of the Discount accrued with respect to such Portion of Investment during the related Yield Period.
(d)    The Servicer shall distribute the amounts described (and at the times set forth) in Section 1.4(c), as follows:
(i)    if such distribution occurs on a day that is not a Termination Day and the Purchased Interest does not exceed 100%, first to the Administrator for distribution to each Purchaser Agent ratably according to the Discount accrued during such Yield Period (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of all accrued Discount and fees (other than Servicing Fees) with respect to each Portion of Investment maintained by such Purchasers; it being understood that each Purchaser Agent shall distribute such amounts to the Purchasers within its Purchaser Group ratably according to Discount and fees, and second, if the Servicer has set aside amounts in respect of the Servicing Fee pursuant to clause (b)(i) and has not retained such amounts pursuant to clause (c), to the Servicer’s own account (payable in arrears on each Settlement Date) in payment in full of the aggregate of each Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of accrued Servicing Fees so set aside, and
(ii)    if such distribution occurs on a Termination Day or on a day when the Purchased Interest exceeds 100%, first, if WESCO or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, to the Servicer’s own account in payment in full of all accrued Servicing Fees, second, to the Administrator for distribution to each Purchaser Agent ratably according to Investment (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of all such accrued Discount with respect to each Portion of Investment funded or maintained by the Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group, third, to the Administrator for distribution to each Purchaser Agent (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) ratably according to the fees accrued (other than Servicing Fees) in payment in full of all such accrued fees (other than Servicing Fees) with respect to each Portion of Investment maintained by such Purchasers, fourth, to the Administrator for distribution to each Purchaser Agent ratably according to the aggregate of the Investment of each Purchaser in each such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group (for the benefit of the relevant Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group) in payment in full of each Purchaser’s Investment (or, if such day is not a Termination Day, the amount necessary to reduce the Purchased Interest to 100%); it being understood that each Purchaser Agent shall distribute the amounts described

in the second, third and fourth clauses of this Section 1.4(d)(ii) to the Purchasers within its Purchaser Group ratably according to Investment or, in the case of the third clause of this Section 1.4(d)(ii), fees (not including the Servicing Fee), fifth, if the Aggregate Investment and accrued Aggregate Discount with respect to each Portion of Investment for all Purchaser Groups have been reduced to zero, and all accrued Servicing Fees payable to the Servicer (if other than WESCO or an Affiliate thereof) have been paid in full, to the Administrator for distribution ratably to each Purchaser Agent (for the benefit of the Purchasers within such Purchaser Group) the Administrator, each Indemnified Party and each Affected Person, in payment in full of any other amounts owed thereto by the Seller or Servicer hereunder, and sixth, to the Servicer’s own account (if the Servicer is WESCO or an Affiliate thereof) in payment in full of the Aggregate of each Purchaser Group’s Ratable Share of all accrued Servicing Fees.
After the Aggregate Investment, Aggregate Discount, fees payable pursuant to each Purchaser Group Fee Letter and Servicing Fees with respect to the Purchased Interest, and any other amounts payable by the Seller and the Servicer to each Purchaser Group, the Administrator or any other Indemnified Party or Affected Person hereunder, have been paid in full, all additional Collections with respect to the Purchased Interest shall be paid to the Seller for its own account. Each Purchaser Agent hereby covenants and agrees to timely provide the Administrator with all information necessary for the Administrator to make the allocations to the Purchaser Agents required to be made by the Administrator pursuant to Sections 1.4(d) and 1.4(f), including the applicable account of each Purchaser Agent for which amounts should be distributed.
(e)    For the purposes of this Section 1.4:
(i)    if on any day the Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, discount or other adjustment made by the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, or the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer, or any setoff or dispute between the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, or the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer and an Obligor, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment;
(ii)    if on any day any of the representations or warranties in Section 1(g) or (m) of Exhibit III is not true with respect to any Pool Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full;
(iii)    except as provided in clause (i) or (ii), or as otherwise required by Applicable Law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates in writing its payment for application to specific Receivables; and
(iv)    if and to the extent the Administrator, any Purchaser Agent or any Purchaser shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor (or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any Insolvency Proceeding) any amount received by it hereunder, such

 
9
 




amount shall be deemed not to have been so received by such Person but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, such Person shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.
(f)    If at any time the Seller shall wish to cause the reduction of Aggregate Investment (but not to commence the liquidation, or reduction to zero, of the entire Aggregate Investment), the Seller may do so as follows:
(i)    the Seller shall give the Administrator, each Purchaser Agent and the Servicer at least two Business Days’ prior written notice thereof for any reduction of Aggregate Investment (such notice to include the amount of such proposed reduction and the proposed date on which such reduction will commence);
(ii)    on the proposed date of commencement of such reduction and on each day thereafter, the Servicer shall cause Collections not to be reinvested until the amount thereof not so reinvested shall equal the desired amount of reduction; and
(iii)    the Servicer shall hold such Collections in trust for the benefit of each Purchaser ratably according to its Investment, for payment to the Administrator (for the account of such Purchaser) on the next Settlement Date, and the Aggregate Investment (together with the Investment of any related Purchaser) shall be deemed reduced in the amount to be paid to the Administrator (for the account of such Purchaser) only when in fact finally so paid;
; provided, that:
(A)    the amount of any such reduction shall be not less than $500,000 in the aggregate for all Purchaser Groups (unless the Aggregate Investment at the time of such reduction is less than $500,000, in which case such reduction shall be in the amount required to reduce the Aggregate Investment to zero); and
(B)    with respect to any Portion of Investment, the Seller shall choose a reduction amount, and the date of commencement thereof, so that to the extent practicable such reduction shall commence and conclude in the same Yield Period.
Section 1.5.    Fees. The Seller shall pay to the Administrator for distribution to each Purchaser Agent for the benefit of the related Purchasers, certain fees in the amounts and on the dates set forth in those certain fee letters, each such letter (as amended or amended and restated through the date hereof and as amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Purchaser Group Fee Letter”), in each case among the Seller, the Servicer, the related Purchaser Agent and the related Purchasers.
Section 1.6.    Payments and Computations, Etc.

 
10
 




(a)    All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made without reduction for offset or counterclaim and shall be paid or deposited no later than noon (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the applicable account from time to time designated by the Administrator. All amounts received after noon (New York City time) will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Except as expressly set forth herein (including, without limitation, as set forth in Sections 1.4(b)(ii) or (iii) with respect to Collections held in trust for Exiting Purchasers), the Administrator shall promptly (and, if reasonably practicable, on the day it receives such amounts) distribute to the applicable Purchaser Agent amounts received by it hereunder for the benefit of the Purchasers within such Purchaser Agent’s Purchaser Group, and such Purchaser Agent shall promptly thereafter distribute such amounts received by it to the Purchasers within its Purchaser Group ratably (x) in the case of such amounts paid in respect of Discount and Fees, according to the Discount and Fees payable to such Purchasers and (y) in the case of such amounts paid in respect of Investment (or in respect of any other obligations other than Discount and Fees), according to the outstanding Investment funded by such Purchasers. Unless the Administrator shall have received notice from Seller prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrator for the account of any Purchasers hereunder that the Seller (or the Servicer on its behalf) will not make such payment (including because Collections are not available therefor), the Administrator may assume that the Seller has made or will make such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Purchaser Agents the amount due. In such event, if the Seller (or the Servicer on its behalf) has not in fact made such payment, then each Purchaser Agent severally agrees to repay to the Administrator forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Purchaser Agent, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrator, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrator in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(b)    The Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, when due hereunder, at an interest rate equal to 2.00% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand.
(c)    All computations of interest under clause (b) and all computations of Discount, fees and other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 (or 365 or 366, as applicable, with respect to Discount or other amounts calculated by reference to the Base Rate) days for the actual number of days elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.
Section 1.7.    Increased Costs.
(a)    If any Purchaser Agent, Purchaser, Liquidity Provider, the Administrator or any other Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates (each an “Affected Person”) reasonably determines that the existence of or compliance with: (i) any law or regulation or any

 
11
 




change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, in each case adopted, issued or occurring after the date hereof, or (ii) any request, guideline or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued or occurring after the date of this Agreement, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Affected Person, and such Affected Person determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of any commitment to make purchases of (or otherwise to maintain the investment in) Pool Receivables related to this Agreement or any related liquidity facility, credit enhancement facility or other commitments of the same type, then, upon demand by such Affected Person (with a copy to the Administrator), the Seller shall promptly pay to the Administrator, for the account of such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Affected Person reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of any of such commitments. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(b)    If, due to either: (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Affected Person of agreeing to purchase or purchasing, or maintaining the ownership of, the Purchased Interest or any portion thereof in respect of which Discount is computed by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR, then, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person, from time to time as specified by such Affected Person, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Person for such increased costs. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Seller and the Administrator by such Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c)    If such increased costs affect the related Affected Person’s portfolio of financing transactions, such Affected Person shall use reasonable averaging and attribution methods to allocate such increased costs to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 1.7, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or any Governmental Authority, any central bank of any jurisdiction, comparable agency or other Person, in each case pursuant to, or implementing, the accord know as Basel II or Basel III, are, in the case of each of clause (i) and clause (ii) above, deemed to have been introduced or adopted after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
Section 1.8.    Requirements of Law.
If any Affected Person reasonably determines that the existence of or compliance with: (a) any law or regulation or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, in each case adopted, issued or occurring after the date hereof, or (b) any request, guideline or directive

 
12
 




from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued or occurring after the date of this Agreement:
(i)    does or shall subject such Affected Person to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any increase in the Purchased Interest or any portion thereof or in the amount of such Person’s Investment relating thereto, or does or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to such Affected Person on account of Collections, Discount or any other amounts payable hereunder (excluding taxes imposed on the overall pre-tax net income of such Affected Person, and franchise taxes imposed on such Affected Person, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Affected Person is organized or a political subdivision thereof),
(ii)    does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, purchases, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Affected Person that are not otherwise included in the determination of the Euro-Rate, the LMIR or the Base Rate hereunder, or
(iii)    does or shall impose on such Affected Person any other condition,
and the result of any of the foregoing is: (A) to increase the cost to such Affected Person of acting as Administrator or as a Purchaser Agent, or of agreeing to purchase or purchasing or maintaining the ownership of undivided percentage ownership interests with regard to the Purchased Interest (or interests therein) or any Portion of Investment, or (B) to reduce any amount receivable hereunder (whether directly or indirectly), then, in any such case, upon demand by such Affected Person, the Seller shall promptly pay to such Affected Person additional amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Person for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable. All such amounts shall be payable as incurred. A certificate from such Affected Person to the Seller and the Administrator certifying, in reasonably specific detail, the basis for, calculation of, and amount of such additional costs or reduced amount receivable shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error; provided, however, that no Affected Person shall be required to disclose any confidential or tax planning information in any such certificate; provided, further, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 1.8, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder, and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or any Governmental Authority, any central bank of any jurisdiction, comparable agency or other Person, in each case pursuant to, or implementing, the accord know as Basel II or Basel III, are, in the case of each of clause (i) and clause (ii) above, deemed to have been introduced or adopted after the date hereof, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
Section 1.9.    Inability to Determine Euro-Rate or LMIR.
(a)    If the Administrator (or any Purchaser Agent) determines before the first day of any Yield Period (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, by reason of

 
13
 




circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market (in respect of such Person’s Purchaser Group or otherwise), deposits in dollars (in the relevant amounts for such Yield Period) are not being offered to such Person in the interbank eurodollar market for such Yield Period, or adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Euro-Rate or the LMIR for such Yield Period, then the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent shall give notice thereof to the Seller. Thereafter, until the Administrator or such Purchaser Agent notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, no Portion of Investment shall be funded by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR and the Discount for any outstanding Portions of Investment then funded by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR shall, on the last day of the then current Yield Period, be converted to the rate determined by reference to the Base Rate.
(b)    If, on or before the first day of any Yield Period, the Administrator shall have been notified by any Purchaser, Purchaser Agent or Liquidity Provider that, such Person has determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, any enactment, promulgation or adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by a governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Person with any guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Person to fund or maintain any Portion of Investment at an interest rate based upon the Euro-Rate or the LMIR, the Administrator shall notify the Seller thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, until the Administrator notifies the Seller that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply, (a) no Portion of Investment shall be funded at the rate determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR and (b) the Discount for any such outstanding Portions of Investment shall be converted to a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate either on the last day of the then current Yield Period if such Person may lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Investment by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR to such day, or immediately, if such Person may not lawfully continue to maintain such Portion of Investment by reference to the Euro-Rate or the LMIR to such day.
Section 1.10.    Extension of Termination Date. The Seller may advise the Administrator and each Committed Purchaser in writing of its desire to extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date with respect to such Purchaser; provided that such request is made not more than 90one-hundred twenty (120) days prior to, and not less than sixty (60) days prior to, the then current Scheduled Commitment Termination Date with respect to such Purchaser. In the event that the applicable Purchaser is agreeable to such extension, the Administrator shall so notify the Seller in writing (it being understood that the Purchasers may accept or decline such a request in their sole discretion and on such terms as they may elect) not less than 30 days prior to its then current Scheduled Commitment Termination Date and the Seller, the Administrator, the Purchaser Agents and the Purchasers shall enter into such documents as the Purchasers may deem necessary or appropriate to reflect such extension, and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Purchasers, the Administrator and the Purchaser Agents in connection therewith (including reasonable Attorney Costs) shall be paid by the Seller. In the event a Purchaser declines the request for such extension, the Administrator shall so notify the Seller and each Purchaser Agent of such determination; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrator to notify the Seller of the determination to decline such extension shall not affect the understanding and agreement that the

 
14
 




Purchaser shall be deemed to have refused to grant the requested extension in the event the Administrator fails to affirmatively notify the Seller, in writing, of their agreement to accept the requested extension.
Section 1.11.    Increase in Commitments.
(a)    Requests for Increase. So long as no Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, upon notice to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, the Servicer (on behalf of the Seller) may from time to time (i) request an increase in the Commitment with respect to any existing Committed Purchaser (with the consent of the Administrator) or (ii) request that additional Persons be added as Committed Purchasers subject to the provisions of Section 1.2(e), in each case at any time following the Closing Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date with respect to such Committed Purchaser or other Person, as applicable, such increase in such existing Committed Purchaser’s Commitment or new Commitment of such new Committed Purchaser to be an amount (for all such requests or additions) not exceeding $100,000,000200,000,000 (it being understood and agreed that, for the avoidance of doubt, at no time shall the aggregate of all Commitments exceed $650,000,000800,000,000); provided, that each request for an increase or addition of a Person pursuant to Section 1.2(e) shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 above such minimum amount. At the time of sending such notice with respect to any existing Committed Purchaser, the Servicer (in consultation with the Administrator and the Purchaser Agent related to such Committed Purchaser) shall specify the time period within which such Committed Purchaser and the Administrator are requested to respond to the Servicer’s request (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Administrator and such Committed Purchaser and its related Purchaser Agent).
(b)    Elections to Increase. In respect of any existing Committed Purchaser, each of such Committed Purchaser being asked to increase its Commitment and the Administrator shall notify the Seller and the Servicer within the applicable time period whether or not such Person agrees, in its respective sole discretion, to the increase to such Committed Purchaser’s Commitment. Any such Person not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to consent to an increase in such Committed Purchaser’s Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, only the consent of the Committed Purchaser then being asked to increase its Commitment and the Administrator shall be required in order to approve any such request.
(c)    Effective Date. If the Commitment of any existing Committed Purchaser is increased in accordance with this Section 1.11, the Administrator and the Purchaser Agent for such Committed Purchaser shall determine the effective date with respect to such increase (such date, the “Commitment Increase Effective Date”).
(d)    Notification by the Administrator. The Administrator shall notify each Purchaser Agent, the Seller and the Servicer of the Administrator’s and such Committed Purchaser’s response to each request made hereunder, the amount of such increase (if any) and the related Commitment Increase Effective Date.

 
15
 




(e)    Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to each such increase, the Servicer shall deliver to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, a certificate of the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of each of the Seller and the Servicer, dated as of the Commitment Increase Effective Date, (i) certifying and attaching (x) the resolutions of the Board of Directors of such Person adopted by such Board of Directors approving or consenting to such Commitment increase and authorizing the execution, delivery and performance by such Person of the amendment to this Agreement contemplated in Section 1.11(c), as applicable (it being understood that such resolutions may be dated as of a date prior to the Commitment Increase Effective Date), and (y) all documents evidencing all other necessary corporate action and governmental approvals, if any, with respect to such Commitment increase and such amendment to this Agreement (it being understood that such documents may be dated as of a date prior to the Commitment Increase Effective Date) and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (x) the representations and warranties of such Person contained in Exhibit III are true and correct as of the Commitment Increase Effective Date and (y) no Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event exists or shall exist.
(f)    Conflicting Provisions. This Section 1.11 shall supersede any provisions in Section 6.1 to the contrary.
Section 1.12.    Successor Euro-Rate or LMIR.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Administrator determines in good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that either (i) (A) the circumstances set forth in Section 1.9 have arisen and are unlikely to be temporary, or (B) the circumstances set forth in Section 1.9 have not arisen but the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of the Euro-Rate or LMIR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrator has made a public statement identifying the specific date after which the Euro-Rate or LMIR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (either such date, a “LIBOR Termination Date”), or (ii) a rate other than the Euro-Rate or LMIR has become a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in U.S. dollars in the U.S. market, then the Administrator shall give notice thereof to the Seller and the Servicer, and the Administrator, the Seller and the Servicer shall endeavor to establish a replacement index for the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, and make adjustments to applicable margins and related amendments to this Agreement as referred to below such that, to the extent practicable, the all-in Discount based on the replacement index will be substantially equivalent to the all-in Discount based on the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, in effect prior to its replacement.
(b)    The Administrator, the Seller and the Servicer shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect the replacement index, the adjusted margins and such other related amendments as may be appropriate, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrator, for the implementation and administration of the replacement index-based rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, Section 6.1), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date a draft of the amendment is provided to the Purchasers, the Seller and the Servicer

 
16
 




unless the Administrator receives, on or before such tenth (10th) Business Day, a written notice from the Majority Purchasers stating that such Majority Purchasers, the Seller or the Servicer object to such amendment.
(c)    Selection of the replacement index, adjustments to the applicable margins, and amendments to this Agreement (i) will be determined with due consideration to the then-current market practices for determining and implementing a rate of interest for newly originated loans in the United States and loans converted from a rate based on the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, to a replacement index-based rate, and (ii) may also reflect adjustments to account for (A) the effects of the transition from the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, to the replacement index and (B) yield- or risk-based differences between the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, and the replacement index.
(d)    Until an amendment reflecting a new replacement index or adjustments to applicable margins in accordance with this Section 1.12 is effective, any Portion of Investment for which Discount is determined by reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR will, subject to Section 1.9, continue to accrue Discount with reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR (or Base Rate if applicable pursuant to Section 1.9), as applicable, provided however, that if the Administrator determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive, absent manifest error) that a LIBOR Termination Date has occurred, then following the LIBOR Termination Date, any Portion of Investment for which Discount would otherwise be determined with reference to the Euro-Rate or LMIR, as applicable, shall automatically begin accruing Discount with reference to the Base Rate until such time as an amendment reflecting a replacement index and related matters as described above is implemented.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the replacement index is less than zero, at such times, such index shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.
(f)    This Section 1.12 provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest in the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances. Without limiting the provisions set forth in Article V, the Administrator does not warrant or accept any responsibility for and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of the Euro-Rate or LMIR or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate therefor.

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTIONS
Section 4.1.    Appointment of the Servicer.
(a)    The servicing, administering and collection of the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by the Person so designated from time to time as the Servicer in accordance with this Section. Until the Administrator gives notice to WESCO (in accordance with this Section 4.1) of the designation of a new Servicer, WESCO is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Administrator may (with the consent of the Majority Purchasers) or shall (at the direction of the Majority Purchasers) designate as Servicer any Person (including itself) to succeed WESCO or any successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that any such Person so designated shall agree to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.
(b)    Upon the designation of a successor Servicer as set forth in clause (a), WESCO agrees that it will terminate its activities as Servicer hereunder in a manner that the Administrator determines will facilitate the transition of the performance of such activities to the new Servicer, and WESCO shall cooperate with and assist such new Servicer. Such cooperation shall include access to and transfer of related records (including all Contracts) and use by the new Servicer of all licenses, hardware or software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security.
(c)    WESCO acknowledges that, in making their decision to execute and deliver this Agreement, the Administrator and each Purchaser Group have relied on WESCO’s agreement to act as Servicer hereunder. Accordingly, WESCO agrees that it will not voluntarily resign as Servicer.
(d)    The Servicer may delegate its duties and obligations hereunder to any subservicer (each a “Sub-Servicer”); provided, that, in each such delegation: (i) such Sub-Servicer shall agree in writing to perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the Servicer shall remain primarily liable for the performance of the duties and obligations so delegated, (iii) the Seller, the Administrator and each Purchaser Group shall have the right to look solely to the Servicer for performance, and (iv) the terms of any agreement with any Sub-Servicer shall provide that the Administrator may terminate such agreement upon the termination of the Servicer hereunder by giving notice of its desire to terminate such agreement to the Servicer

(and the Servicer shall provide appropriate notice to each such Sub-Servicer); provided, however, that if any such delegation is to any Person other than an Originator or an Affiliate thereof, the Administrator and the Majority Purchasers shall have consented in writing in advance to such delegation.
Section 4.2.    Duties of the Servicer.
(a)    The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or advisable to administer and collect each Pool Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with this Agreement and all Applicable Laws, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policies. The Servicer shall set aside, for the account of each Purchaser Group, the amount of the Collections to which each such Purchaser Group is entitled in accordance with Article I. The Servicer may, in accordance with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Pool Receivable (but not beyond 30 days or beyond 90 days from the original invoice date) and extend the maturity or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Defaulted Receivable as the Servicer may determine to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that: (i) such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Pool Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or a Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of the Administrator or any Purchaser Group under this Agreement and (ii) if a Termination Event has occurred and WESCO or an Affiliate thereof is serving as the Servicer, WESCO or such Affiliate may make such extension or adjustment only upon the prior approval of the Administrator (with the consent of the Majority Purchasers). The Seller shall deliver to the Servicer and the Servicer shall hold for the benefit of the Seller and the Administrator (individually and for the benefit of each Purchaser Group), in accordance with their respective interests, all records and documents (including computer tapes or disks) with respect to each Pool Receivable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrator may direct the Servicer (whether the Servicer is WESCO or any other Person) to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Pool Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security; provided, however, that no such direction may be given unless either: (A) a Termination Event has occurred or (B) the Administrator believes in good faith that failure to commence, settle or effect such legal action, foreclosure or repossession could adversely affect Receivables constituting a material portion of the Pool Receivables.
(b)    The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following actual receipt of collected funds, turn over to the Seller the collections of any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, less, if WESCO or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, all reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Servicer of servicing, collecting and administering such collections. The Servicer, if other than WESCO or an Affiliate thereof, shall, as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Seller all records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, and copies of records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is a Pool Receivable.

The Seller hereby agrees that if the Administrator at any time takes any action set forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrator shall have exclusive control (for the benefit of the Purchasers) of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Pool Receivables and the Seller hereby further agrees to take any other action that the Administrator or any Purchaser Agent may reasonably request to transfer such control. Any proceeds of Pool Receivables received by the Seller or the Servicer thereafter shall be sent immediately to the Administrator. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that if at any time the Administrator takes control of any Lock-Box Account, the Administrator shall not have any rights to the funds therein in excess of the unpaid amounts due to the Administrator, the Purchaser Groups, any Indemnified Party or any other Person hereunder, and the Administrator shall distribute or cause to be distributed such funds in accordance with Section 4.2(b) and Article I (in each case as if such funds were held by the Servicer thereunder). The Administrator hereby agrees that, if, at any time following its exercise of its Lock-Box Rights, to the extent such Lock-Box Rights are being exercised by the Administrator due solely to the occurrence of the event in clause (iii) above and such event has been cured for a period of not less than 60 consecutive days, unless consented to in writing by the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, upon notice of such cure to the Administrator and each Purchaser Agent, the Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller and the Servicer to cease exercising such Lock-Box Rights within a reasonable period of time; provided, however, that if, at any time the Administrator ceases to exercise its Lock-Box Rights in accordance with this sentence, such cessation shall not preclude the Administrator from exercising any or all of its Lock-Box Rights at any time following such date.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Seller may not 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, the Purchaser Agents and the Purchasers.
(b)    Participations. Any Purchaser may sell to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”) participating interests in the interests of such Purchaser hereunder; provided, however, 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.

 
29
 




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 Committed Purchasers. Any Committed Purchaser may assign to one or more Persons (each a “Purchasing Committed Purchaser”), reasonably acceptable to the related Purchaser Agent in its sole discretion, any portion of its Commitment pursuant to a supplement hereto, substantially in the form of Annex E with any changes as have been approved by the parties thereto (a “Transfer Supplement”), executed by each such Purchasing Committed Purchaser, such selling Committed Purchaser, such related Purchaser Agent.

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 Committed Purchaser to the selling Committed Purchaser of the agreed purchase price, such selling Committed Purchaser shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment and such Purchasing Committed Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Committed Purchaser party hereto and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Committed Purchaser hereunder to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto. The amount of the Commitment of the selling Committed Purchaser allocable to such Purchasing Committed Purchaser shall be equal to the amount of the Commitment of the selling Committed Purchaser transferred regardless of the purchase price paid therefor. The Transfer Supplement shall be an amendment hereof only to the extent necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Committed Purchaser as a “Committed Purchaser” and any resulting adjustment of the selling Committed Purchaser’s Commitment.
(d)    [Reserved].
(e)    Assignment by Conduit Purchasers. Each party hereto agrees and consents (i) to any Conduit Purchaser’s assignment, participation, grant of security interests in or other transfers of any portion of, or any of its beneficial interest in, the Purchased Interest (or portion thereof), including without limitation to any collateral agent in connection with its commercial paper program and (ii) to the complete assignment by any Conduit Purchaser of all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Person, and upon such assignment such Conduit Purchaser shall be released from all obligations and duties, if any, hereunder. Any assigning Conduit Purchaser shall deliver to any assignee a Transfer Supplement, duly executed by such Conduit Purchaser, assigning any portion of its interest in the Purchased Interest to its assignee. Such Conduit 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 Purchased Interest and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights of such Conduit Purchaser hereunder.

To the extent, if any, that the Seller (or any Affiliate thereof) shares items of expenses not reflected in the Servicing Fee or the manager’s fee, such as legal, auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be allocated to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to the actual use or the value of services rendered; it being understood that WESCO shall pay all expenses relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, including legal, agency and other fees;

(k) The Seller’s assets will be maintained in a manner that facilitates their identification and segregation from those of WESCO or any Affiliate thereof;
(l) The Seller will strictly observe corporate formalities in its dealings with WESCO or any Affiliate thereof, and funds or other assets of the Seller will not be commingled with those of WESCO or any Affiliate thereof except as permitted by this Agreement in connection with servicing the Pool Receivables. The Seller shall not maintain joint bank accounts or other depository accounts to which WESCO or any Affiliate thereof (other than WESCO in its capacity as the Servicer) has independent access. The Seller is not named, and has not entered into any agreement to be named, directly or indirectly, as a direct or contingent beneficiary or loss payee on any insurance policy with respect to any loss relating to the property of WESCO or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of WESCO. The Seller will pay to the appropriate Affiliate the marginal increase or, in the absence of such increase, the market amount of its portion of the premium payable with respect to any insurance policy that covers the Seller and such Affiliate;
(m) The Seller will maintain arm’s-length relationships with WESCO (and any Affiliate thereof). Any Person that renders or otherwise furnishes services to the Seller will be compensated by the Seller at market rates for such services it renders or otherwise furnishes to the Seller. Neither the Seller nor WESCO will be or will hold itself out to be responsible for the debts of the other or the decisions or actions respecting the daily business and affairs of the other. The Seller and WESCO will immediately correct any known misrepresentation with respect to the foregoing, and they will not operate or purport to operate as an integrated single economic unit with respect to each other or in their dealing with any other entity; and
