Accounts Receivable Financing Program

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING PROGRAM

Under its accounts receivable financing facility (the “ABS Facility”), USF sells, on a revolving basis, 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 right, title and interest in the eligible receivables to the administrative agent, for the benefit of the lenders. The Company consolidates the Receivables Company and, consequently, the transfer of the eligible receivables is a transaction internal to the Company and the eligible receivables have not been derecognized from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of June 29, 2019 and December 29, 2018 was approximately $1.0 billion of receivables held as collateral in support of the ABS Facility. See Note 10, Debt, for a further description of the ABS Facility.
