SECTION 2.01. Facility.

On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and without recourse (except to the extent as is specifically provided herein), the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Sellers all Receivables in existence on the date hereof and all Receivables created by any Seller during the period from the date hereof to the Facility Termination Date as such Receivables arise, other than any Receivables transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.04(b).

SECTION 2.02. Purchases.

(a) Each Seller hereby sells, transfers, absolutely assigns, conveys and sets over to the Purchaser, effective on the Closing Date and on each Applicable Daily Settlement Date occurring after the Closing Date and prior to the Facility Termination Date, all Receivables owned by such Seller as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Closing Date or Applicable Daily Settlement Date (each, a “Purchase”).

(b) The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Receivables (together with the Related Security) payable on the Closing Date or any Daily Settlement Date shall be an amount equal to the fair market value of such Receivables, as agreed between the relevant Seller and the Purchaser. The Purchase Price for the Transferred Receivables sold by each Seller to the

Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid on the Closing Date and each Daily Settlement Date (i) in cash, and (ii) in the sole discretion of the relevant Seller, as capital contributed by that Seller to the Purchaser, or any combination of the foregoing.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Transaction Document to the contrary, as of the Closing Date and each Daily Settlement Date, if the fair market value of any Transferred Receivable exceeds the Purchase Price for such Transferred Receivable previously agreed between the relevant Seller and the Purchaser, then such excess shall be deemed to be a contribution to the capital of the Purchaser by the relevant Seller as of such date and shall increase that Seller’s beneficial ownership interest in the Purchaser accordingly.

(d) Each Seller shall, upon each request of the Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, confirm each Purchase hereunder on any Applicable Daily Settlement Date by a certificate of assignment executed by such Seller, a copy of which certificate shall be provided by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. Upon each Purchase of Receivables, the ownership of each such Receivable shall be vested in the Purchaser, and no Seller shall take any action inconsistent with such ownership or claim any ownership interest in any such Receivable.

(e) Each Seller shall indicate in its records that the ownership of each Applicable Transferred Receivable is held by the Purchaser or its assignee. In addition, such Seller shall respond to any inquiries with respect to ownership of an Applicable Transferred Receivable by stating that it is no longer the owner of such Receivable and that ownership of such Applicable Transferred Receivable is held by the Purchaser or its assignee. Each Seller will furnish to the Purchaser from time to time with statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Applicable Transferred Receivables and with such other reports in connection with such Transferred Receivables as the Purchaser may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

SECTION 2.03. Transfer of Collections.

(a) On the Closing Date and each Applicable Daily Settlement Date, each Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited into a Lock-Box Account any Collections of Applicable Transferred Receivables received by such Seller on such date or deemed to have been received by such Seller on such date pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and/or Section 2.04(b) and then held by such Seller, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, in the event any payment is received by a Seller in the form of a negotiable instrument or cash or cash equivalent delivered to such Seller’s offices (notwithstanding item (xix) in the definition of Eligible Receivables), the relevant Seller shall not be obliged to deposit such funds on the same date but shall take reasonable steps to ensure that such funds are promptly deposited into a Lock-Box Account.

(b) In the event that a Seller believes that cash and cash proceeds due to such Seller which are not Collections of Transferred Receivables have been deposited into an account of the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s assignee, such Seller shall so advise the Purchaser and, promptly following such identification, the Purchaser shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, to such Seller, all cash and cash proceeds so deposited which are identified, to the Purchaser’s satisfaction, to be cash and cash proceeds of Receivables of such Seller which are not Transferred Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the

Purchaser shall return or cause to be returned to the relevant Seller any Collections deposited in a Lock-Box Account in respect of any Receivables arising prior to the Closing Date and not transferred hereunder.

(c) The parties hereto understand and agree that the Purchaser intends, contemporaneously with each purchase of Receivables hereunder, to sell fractional ownership interests in such Receivables as Receivable Interests to the Conduit Purchaser pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

SECTION 2.04. Settlement Procedures.

(a) If on any day the outstanding balance of any Transferred Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected or returned merchandise or services or any cash discount, discount for quick payment or other adjustment by a Seller or any set-off, such Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Transferred Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment (each, an “Originator Deemed Collection”). Such Seller shall pay to the Purchaser, in the manner provided in Section 2.03(a), within three (3) Business Days, all Originator Deemed Collections deemed to have been received pursuant to this subsection.

(b) Upon discovery by any Seller (the “Affected Seller”) or the Purchaser that at the time of purchase, a Transferred Relevant Receivable sold by the Affected Seller hereunder was not an Eligible Receivable, such party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other party, as soon as practicable and in any event within three (3) Business Days following such discovery. The Affected Seller shall, upon not less than two (2) Business Days’ notice from the Purchaser or its assignee or designee, purchase such Transferred Relevant Receivable for a repurchase price equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Transferred Relevant Receivable or replace such Transferred Relevant Receivable with an equivalent Eligible Receivable, each to occur on the next succeeding Applicable Daily Settlement Date. If such Transferred Relevant Receivable is replaced, with respect to any portion of the outstanding principal balance of the replacement Receivable in excess of the outstanding principal balance of the Transferred Relevant Receivable being replaced, the Purchaser shall pay to the Affected Seller an amount equal to such portion. Each repurchase of a Transferred Relevant Receivable shall include repurchase of the Related Security with respect to such Transferred Relevant Receivable. The proceeds of any repurchase shall be deemed to be a Collection in respect of such Transferred Relevant Receivable. The Affected Seller shall pay to the Purchaser on or prior to the next Applicable Daily Settlement Date the repurchase price required to be paid pursuant to this subsection as provided in Section 2.03(a).

(c) Except as stated in subsection (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.04 or as otherwise required by law or the underlying Contract, all Collections from an Obligor of any Transferred Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor designated by such Obligor or, if no Receivables are so designated, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.

SECTION 2.05. Payments and Computations, Etc.

All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller or the Purchaser hereunder shall be paid or deposited no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due in same day funds to the account of the recipient of such funds as set forth in a written notice delivered from time to time by the Purchaser to the Sellers or the applicable Seller to the Purchaser.

(a) Each of the Sellers and the Purchaser shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited when due hereunder by such Person. Such interest shall be payable to the party to whom such amount is due and at an interest rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate, payable on demand.

(b) All computations of interest and all computations of fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed (unless the interest rate is the Alternate Base Rate, in which case 365 days shall be used). 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 succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.

SECTION 2.06. Security Interest.

The parties hereto intend that the purchase and sale of Receivables from each Seller to the Purchaser be treated as a sale of such Receivables and the proceeds thereof. However, if a determination is made that such transfer shall not be so treated, this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement and the transactions effected hereby shall be deemed to constitute a secured financing in each case under applicable law and to that end, as collateral security for the performance by the relevant Seller of all the terms, covenants and agreements on the part of such Seller (whether as a Seller or otherwise) to be performed under this Agreement and any document delivered in connection with this Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, including the punctual payment when due of all obligations of the relevant Seller hereunder or thereunder, whether for indemnification payments, fees, expenses or otherwise, each Seller hereby assigns to the Purchaser a security interest in all of such Seller’s right, title and interest in and to (a) all of its Receivables, the Related Security with respect thereto and the Collections (the “Receivables Collateral”) thereon, (b) subject to the prior rights of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) under and/or in connection with the Security Agreements, all “deposit accounts”, “securities accounts”, “security entitlements” and “investment property” (as such terms are defined in the UCC) constituting or relating to the foregoing, and (c) to the extent not included in the foregoing, all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing. Each Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such action as may be necessary to ensure that such security interest will be a perfected first priority security interest in favor of the Purchaser under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

Each Seller represents and warrants as follows:

(a) It is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and is duly qualified to do business in every jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires it to be so qualified except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the operations or financial condition of such Seller or its ability to perform its obligations hereunder.

(a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Each Seller will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and preserve and maintain its corporate existence, rights, franchises, qualifications and privileges except to the extent that the failure so to comply with such laws, rules and regulations or the failure so to preserve and maintain such existence, rights, franchises, qualifications, and privileges would not materially adversely affect the collectibility of the Transferred Receivables or the ability of such Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Offices, Records and Books of Account. No Seller will change its legal name, state or form of organization, tax identification number or chief executive office unless (i) such Seller shall have provided the Purchaser with at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof and (ii) no later than the effective date of such change, all actions reasonably requested by the Purchaser to protect and perfect its interest in the Transferred Receivables have been taken and completed. Each Seller will also maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures (including, without limitation, an ability to recreate records evidencing Applicable Transferred Receivables and related Contracts in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all Applicable Transferred Receivables (including, without limitation, records adequate to permit the identification, immediately upon the transfer of each Applicable Transferred Receivable and at all times thereafter, of each new Applicable Transferred Receivable and all Collections of and adjustments to each existing Applicable Transferred Receivable). Each Seller shall make a notation in its books and records, including its computer files, to indicate which Receivables have been sold to the Purchaser hereunder.

(c) Performance and Compliance with Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. Each Seller will, at its expense, timely and fully perform and comply with all material provisions, covenants and other promises required to be observed by it under the Contracts related to the Applicable Transferred Receivables where:

(i) before an Event of Termination that is continuing, such non-performance or non-compliance would reasonably be expected to give rise to any dispute, set-off, counterclaim or other claim on the part of the relevant Obligor (1) that is more than 1% of the Discount Protection Amount applying at such time (or together with all such disputes, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims in aggregate, are more than 2% of the Discount Protection Amount applying at such time), or (2) in respect of which a corresponding amount has been deposited by the Purchaser in the Securities Account pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement; or

(ii) at all times following a Event of Termination that is continuing, such non-performance or non-compliance would reasonably be expected to give rise to any dispute, set-off, counterclaim or other claim on the part of the relevant Obligor; and

each Seller will, at its expense, timely and fully perform and comply in all material respects with the Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each Applicable Transferred Receivable and the related Contract.

(d) Sales, Liens, Etc. Except for the sales of Receivables contemplated herein, no Seller will sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to, any Applicable Transferred Receivable, Related Security, related Contract or Collections, or upon or with respect to any account to which any Collections of any Applicable Transferred Receivable are sent, or assign any right to receive income in respect thereof, provided, however, that the provisions of this paragraph shall not prevent the existence of inchoate liens for taxes, assessments and governmental charges or claims not yet due or being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings.

(e) Extension or Amendment of Transferred Receivables. Except in the case of the GI Seller in its capacity as Servicer as permitted by Section 6.02(c) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, no Seller will extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Applicable Transferred Receivable without the consent of the Purchaser and the Administrative Agent.

(f) Change in Business or in Credit and Collection Policy. No Seller will make any change in either (i) the character of its business or (ii) the Credit and Collection Policy if such change would impair or delay in any material respect the collectibility of the Transferred Receivables taken as a whole. In the event that any Seller makes any change to its Credit and Collection Policy it shall, contemporaneously with such change, provide the Administrative Agent with an updated Credit and Collection Policy and summary of material changes.

(g) Audits. Each Seller will during regular business hours at any time following the occurrence of an Event of Termination and otherwise upon two Business Days prior written request from the Purchaser or the Administrative Agent, permit the Purchaser, or its agents, representatives or assigns, or the Administrative Agent under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, or its agents or representatives (including independent public accountants) in each case at such Seller’s expense:

(i) to conduct an annual audit of the Applicable Transferred Receivables, the Related Security and the related books and records and collections systems of such Seller, such audit to be conducted and reported in conjunction with the timing requirements applicable with regard to the conduct, preparation and delivery of the Agreed Upon Procedures report contemplated by Clause 6.06(c) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement;

(ii) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books, records and documents (including, without limitation, computer tapes and disks) in the possession or under the control of such Seller relating to Applicable Transferred Receivables and the Related Security, including, without limitation, the Contracts; and

(iii) to visit the offices and properties of such Seller for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause (ii) above, and to discuss matters relating to Applicable Transferred Receivables and the Related Security or such Seller’s performance hereunder with any of the officers or employees of such Seller having knowledge of such matters.

(h) Marking of Records. At its expense, each Seller will mark its master data processing records evidencing Applicable Transferred Receivables with a legend or otherwise mark its records to indicate that such Applicable Transferred Receivables have been sold in accordance with this Agreement.

(i) Further Assurance. Each Seller agrees from time to time at its expense, promptly to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further actions that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Purchaser or its assignee(s) may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the sale of Receivables under this Agreement, or to enable the Purchaser or its assignee(s) to exercise and enforce its respective rights and remedies under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, notices of the sale of Receivables hereunder will only be sent to the Obligors after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Termination. Without limiting the foregoing, each Seller will, upon the request of the Purchaser or its assignee(s), (x) execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments and documents, that may be necessary or desirable to perfect, protect or evidence such Applicable Transferred Receivables, and (y) if an Event of Termination has occurred, deliver to the Purchaser all records relating to such Contracts and the Applicable Transferred Receivables, whether in hard copy or in magnetic tape or diskette format (which if in magnetic tape or diskette format shall be compatible with the Administrative Agent’s computer equipment).

(j) Reporting Requirements. Each Seller will provide to the Purchaser the following:

(i) as soon as possible and in any event within five days after a Seller becoming aware of the occurrence of each Event of Termination or Potential Event of Termination, a statement of the chief financial officer or treasurer of such Seller setting forth details of such Event of Termination or Potential Event of Termination and the action that such Seller has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto;

(ii) at least 30 days prior to any change in the legal name or jurisdiction or form of organization or its tax identification number or any move of its chief executive office, a notice setting forth the new name or jurisdiction or form of organization and the effective date thereof; and

(iii) such other information respecting the Applicable Transferred Receivables or the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of such Seller as the Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request.

(k) Separate Records. Each Seller will: (i) maintain separate corporate records and books of account from those of the Purchaser; (ii) conduct its business from an office separate from that of the Purchaser; (iii) ensure that all oral and written communications, including

without limitation, letters, invoices, purchase orders, contracts, statements and applications, will be made solely in its own name; (iv) have stationery and other business forms and a telephone listing separate from that of the Purchaser; (v) not engage in any transaction with the Purchaser except as contemplated by this Agreement or as permitted by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Administration Agreement or other Transaction Documents; (vi) continuously maintain as official records the resolutions, agreements and other instruments underlying the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (vii) disclose on its annual financial statements the effects of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with GAAP.

(l) Agreement. No Seller will amend, waive or modify any provision of this Agreement (including any amendment which would add any additional sellers) or waive the occurrence of any default under this Agreement or consent to any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement without in each case the prior written consent of the Conduit Purchaser and the Administrative Agent, which consent may be conditioned on receipt of confirmation by the Rating Agencies of the current ratings on the Conduit Purchaser’s commercial paper notes. Each Seller will perform all of its obligations under this Agreement and will enforce this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

(m) Transfers. No Seller will take any action:

(i)		while no Event of Termination is continuing, that would reasonably be expected to result in or otherwise cause any Transferred Receivable which was an Eligible Receivable at the time of transfer to become a non-Eligible Receivable to the extent that Transferred Receivable has an Outstanding Balance that is more than 1% of the Discount Protection Amount applying at such time (or, together with all such Transferred Receivables, has an aggregate Outstanding Balance that is more than 2% of the Discount Protection Amount applying at such time), unless in either such case a corresponding amount has been deposited by the Seller in the Securities Account pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i); or

(ii)		while an Event of Termination is continuing, that would reasonably be expected to result in or otherwise cause any Transferred Receivable which was an Eligible Receivable at the time of transfer to become a non-Eligible Receivable.
