ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING PROGRAM

Under its accounts receivable financing facility dated as of August 27, 2012, as amended (the “2012 ABS Facility”), USF sells, on a revolving basis, its eligible receivables to a wholly owned, special purpose, bankruptcy remote subsidiary (the “Receivables Company”). The Receivables Company, in turn, grants a continuing security interest in all of its rights, title and interest in the eligible receivables to the administrative agent, for the benefit of the lenders as defined by the 2012 ABS Facility. The Company consolidates the Receivables Company and, consequently, the transfer of the receivables is a transaction internal to the Company and the receivables have not been derecognized from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2018 and December 30, 2017 was $1,008 million and $964 million, respectively, of receivables held as collateral in support of the 2012 ABS Facility. See Note 11, Debt, for a further description of the 2012 ABS Facility.
