Unless otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement are defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), among the Buyer, as seller, NCR Atleos Canada Receivables LP, as Canadian Guarantor, Cardtronics USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cardtronics”), as an initial Servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), Cardtronics Canada Holdings Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada, as Canadian Servicer, the Persons from time to time party thereto as Purchasers and as Group Agents, PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Structuring Agent.

The Originators, in order to finance their respective businesses, wish to sell and/or, in the case of Cardtronics, contribute Receivables and the Related Rights to the Buyer, and the Buyer is willing to purchase and/or accept such Receivables and the Related Rights from the Originators, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
4.

(c) all of such Originator’s interest in any goods (including returned goods), and documentation of title evidencing the shipment or storage of any goods (including returned goods), the sale or license of which gave rise to such Receivable;
(d) all instruments and chattel paper that may evidence such Receivable;
(e) all other security interests or liens and property subject thereto from time to time purporting to secure payment of such Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise, together with all UCC financing statements or similar filings relating thereto;

(g) all books and records of such Originator with respect to the foregoing, and all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to each Lock-Box and all Lock-Box Accounts, into which any Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property or financial assets (as defined in Article 8 of the UCC) acquired with any such Collections; and

All purchases and contributions hereunder shall be made without recourse, but shall be made pursuant to, and in reliance upon, the representations, warranties and covenants of the applicable Originator set forth in this Agreement. No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable is intended to be assumed by the Buyer hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. The property, proceeds and rights described in clauses (c) through (h) above are herein referred to as the “Related Rights”, and the Buyer’s foregoing agreement to purchase Receivables and Related Rights is herein called the “Purchase Facility.”
SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases.
(a) Closing Date Purchases. Effective on the Closing Date, each Originator hereby sells and/or, in the case of Cardtronics, contributes, to the Buyer, and the Buyer purchases and/or receives, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Receivable that existed and was owing to such Originator at the related Cut-Off Date, (ii) each Receivable generated by such Originator from and including the related Cut-Off Date, to and including the Closing Date, and (iii) all Related Rights with respect thereto.
(b) Subsequent Purchases. After the Closing Date, until the Purchase and Sale Termination Date for the applicable Originator, each Originator hereby sells and/or in the case of Cardtronics, contributes, to the Buyer, and the Buyer purchases and/or receives, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under each Receivable created after the Closing Date, and each Receivable and the Related Rights generated by such Originator shall be, and shall be deemed to have been, sold or contributed, as applicable, by such Originator to the Buyer immediately (and without further action) upon the creation of such Receivable.
SECTION 1.3 Consideration for Purchases. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to make Purchase Price payments to the Originators and to accept all capital contributions, in each case, in accordance with Article III.
SECTION 1.4 Purchase and Sale Termination Date. The “Purchase and Sale Termination Date” with respect to any Originator shall be the earlier to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated with respect to such Originator pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and (b) the first Payment Date to occur following the day on which such Originator shall have given written notice to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent at or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) that such Originator desires to terminate this Agreement.
SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties; Recharacterization. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Buyer that each conveyance of the Receivables and the Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer under this Purchase Facility be absolute and irrevocable and provide Purchaser with the full benefits of ownership of such Receivables and Related Rights, and each Originator hereby relinquishes all title and control over such Receivables and Related Rights upon each such conveyance. However, if, contrary to the mutual intent of the parties, any conveyance of Receivables, including without limitation any Receivables constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights is not construed to be both a valid and perfected sale and absolute assignment of such Receivables and Related Rights, and a conveyance of such Receivables and Related Rights that is prior to the rights of and enforceable
3

against all other Persons at any time, including without limitation lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator, then, it is the intent of such Originator and the Buyer that this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC. Each Originator shall be deemed to have granted to the Buyer as of the date of this Agreement, and such Originator hereby grants to the Buyer a security interest in, to and under all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to all Receivables, the Related Rights and all proceeds thereof, in each case, now existing and hereafter arising, which security interest shall secure the payment of an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Receivables conveyed by such Originator to the Buyer hereunder and any other payment obligation of such Originator to the Buyer hereunder (such Originator’s “Originator Obligations”). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Originator and the Buyer hereby authorize the filing of one or more financing statements with an indication or description of the property conveyed hereunder (which may describe such property in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C and identifying the Buyer as assignor and the Administrative Agent as the assignee), and such amendments thereto and continuations and assignments thereof, in each jurisdiction the Buyer or the Administrative Agent deems necessary and appropriate to perfect their respective ownership and security interests in the property conveyed hereunder and the proceeds thereof.
SECTION 1.6 Excluded Receivables. Each Originator may from time to time, by written notice to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Group Agents, propose to designate one or more Obligors, the Receivables of which will cease to be sold (or contributed) to the Buyer by such Originator from and after a specified date. If the Administrative Agent and the Group Agents consent to such proposed exclusion in writing, Receivables owed by any such Obligor (each, an “Excluded Obligor”) created on or after the date specified in such written consent, or if no date is specified, from and after the fifth Business Day after the date of such written consent (such date, the “Exclusion Date” for such Excluded Obligor) shall not be sold (or contributed) by such Originator to the Buyer hereunder (each such Receivable, an “Excluded Receivable”). It is acknowledged and agreed that collections on Excluded Receivables shall not constitute Collections and shall be subject to the provisions of the Transaction Documents regarding the commingling of Collections with other funds. With the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Group Agents, an Originator may designate any Excluded Obligor to cease to be an Excluded Obligor as of a specified date, and Receivables owed by such former Excluded Obligor created on or after such specified date shall not constitute Excluded Receivables.”

CONTRIBUTIONS AND PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE
CONTRIBUTIONS AND PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE
SECTION 3.1 Initial Purchase Price Payment. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the purchase to be made from such Originator on the Closing Date (i) to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor, partially in cash (in an amount to be agreed between the Buyer and such Originator and set forth in the initial Purchase Record) and, solely in the case of Cardtronics if elected by Cardtronics in its sole discretion, by accepting a contribution from Cardtronics to the Buyer’s capital and (ii) the remainder by an increase in the principal amount of a subordinated loan incurred pursuant to the terms of a subordinated loan agreement entered into with such Originator in the form of Exhibit A (to the extent the Buyer has not previously entered into such a subordinated loan agreement with such Originator) (each such subordinated loan agreement, as it may be amended, supplemented, endorsed or otherwise modified from time to time, together with all other subordinated loan agreements entered into from time to time in substitution or renewal thereof in accordance with the Transaction Documents, each being herein called a “Subordinated Loan Agreement”) with an initial principal amount (or in the case of any outstanding Subordinated Loan (as defined in the applicable Subordinated Loan Agreement), an increase in the principal amount) equal to the remaining Purchase Price payable by such Originator with that was not paid in cash or, in the case of Cardtronics, that was not contributed to the Buyer’s capital.
SECTION 3.2 Subsequent Purchase Price Payments. On each Payment Date subsequent to the Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer shall pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables and the Related Rights generated by such Originator on such Payment Date:
(a) First, in cash to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement);
(b) Second, solely in the case of Cardtronics, if elected by Cardtronics in its sole discretion, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, by accepting a contribution of such Receivable and the Related Rights by Cardtronics to its capital in an amount equal to such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price; and
(c) Third, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, the principal amount outstanding under the applicable Subordinated Loan shall be automatically increased by an amount equal to the lesser of (x) such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price and (y) the maximum increase in the principal balance of the applicable Subordinated Loan that could be made without rendering the Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount;
provided, however, that (x) if more than one Originator is selling Receivables to the Buyer on the date of such purchase, the Buyer shall make cash payments among the Originators in such a way as to minimize to the greatest extent practicable the aggregate principal amounts of the Subordinated Loans and (y) if on any Business Day, the entire Purchase Price for any Receivable
6
1752800232
is not paid by the Buyer as a result of any of the limitations set forth above, any remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price shall be contributed to the Buyer in exchange for a limited liability company interest in the amount of such unpaid portion in accordance with the terms of the Buyer’s organizational documents; provided, further, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to require Cardtronics to make any capital contribution to the Buyer.
“Net Worth” has the meaning set forth under “Seller’s Net Worth” in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
On each Monthly Settlement Date, based on the most recent Purchase Records, the Buyer and each Originator shall determine the net amount of cash payments made by the Buyer to such Originator during the related Fiscal Month in respect of the Purchase Price for Receivables acquired from such Originator, after giving effect to Section 3.4 hereof and Section 3.01 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the amount of the increase or decrease in such Originator's Subordinated Loan, and in the case of Cardtronics, the portion of such Purchase Price allocable to a capital contribution, and the Buyer shall report or cause to be reported the foregoing determinations to the Administrative Agent.
Interest and principal on each Subordinated Loan shall be paid by the Buyer in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. Each Originator is authorized by the Buyer to make appropriate notations on its Subordinated Loan to reflect the date and amount of each advance thereunder and the date and amount of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notations shall not affect any obligation of the Buyer thereunder. Each Originator acting as a lender in respect of any Subordinated Loan agrees that such Subordinated Loan shall be deemed to be terminated upon the final payment thereof after the occurrence of such Purchase and Sale Termination Date with respect Originator to such Originator.
SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.
(a) If, on the day of purchase or contribution of any Receivable from an Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.1(k), (l), (m), (x), (z) or (bb) are not true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price for such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Purchase Price minus the amount of Collections received by the Buyer thereon, and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below; provided, that if the Buyer thereafter receives payment on account of any such Receivable, the Buyer promptly shall deliver such funds to such Originator. Upon payment by the Originator or other application of such credit in accordance with clause (c) below, all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivable and any Related Rights (including any related returned goods) shall be reconveyed to the applicable Originator, and any related interest of Buyer in such Receivable and such Related Rights shall be deemed released and relinquished, in each case without further action by any Person.
(b) If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable sold or contributed by an Originator hereunder is reduced or adjusted as a result of (i) defective, rejected or returned goods or services, (ii) any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo,
7
1752800232
discount, warranty payment or other voluntary reduction in the amounts actually owed by the applicable Pool Obligor made by such Originator or any of its Affiliates (other than as a result of the receipt of Collections), (iii) any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between any Pool Obligor and such Originator or any of its Affiliates (whether arising from the transaction giving rise to a Pool Receivable or any unrelated transaction) or (iv) any correction to the reported Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable as of the date of its sale or contribution hereunder due to such reported Outstanding Balance being in excess of its actual Outstanding Balance as of such date, then, in any such case, to the extent it would not constitute reimbursement for any Credit Risk Losses and except as provided in the following paragraph, the Purchase Price with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by the amount of such net reduction or adjustment and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below. Upon payment by the Originator or other application of such credit in accordance with clause (c) below, all of Buyer’s right, title and interest in and to any returned goods or any other Related Rights specific to the portion of the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable that was so reduced shall be reconveyed by the Buyer to the applicable Originator, and any related interest of Buyer in such returned goods or other Related Rights shall be deemed released and relinquished, in each case without further action by any Person.
If (x) a Pool Receivable (or any portion thereof) is cancelled and the related Outstanding Balance of such Receivable (or portion thereof) is reduced to zero by an Originator in accordance with its customary credit and rebilling practices, (y) such Originator simultaneously generates a new Receivable (or portion thereof) payable by the same Obligor for the sale of goods, performance of services or license of software giving rise to the cancelled or reduced Pool Receivable in accordance with such Originator’s customary credit and rebilling practices, and such Originator sells or contributes such new Receivable (or portion thereof) to the Buyer hereunder and (z) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has not occurred with respect to such Originator, then the Buyer shall receive a credit against the Purchase Price otherwise payable by it for such new Receivable (or portion thereof) in an amount equal to the Purchase Price paid by the Buyer hereunder for the cancelled portion of such Receivable, and the amount of the related net reduction or adjustment to be accounted for as provided in clause (c) below shall be equal to the amount, if any, by which such new Receivable’s Outstanding Balance (or portion thereof) related to the sale of such goods, performance of such services or license of such software is less than the Outstanding Balance of such cancelled Pool Receivable (or portion thereof).
(c) For so long as: (A) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has not occurred with respect to such Originator, (B) no Termination Event has occurred and is continuing under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, (C) no Capital Coverage Deficit exists and (D) the Buyer’s Net Worth is at least equal to the Required Capital Amount, any reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall, at the option of the related Originator:
(i) be applied as a credit for the account of the Buyer against the Purchase Price of Receivables acquired by the Buyer from such Originator
8
1752800232
hereunder during the Fiscal Month in which such reduction of the Purchase Price occurred;
(ii) be applied as a repayment of principal to the outstanding principal balance under the Subordinated Loan payable to such Originator;
(iii) be paid in cash to the Buyer by deposit of immediately available funds into a Lock-Box Account as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in such amount had actually been received on such date; or
(iv) any combination of the foregoing.
In all other cases (including if (A) the Purchase and Sale Termination Date has occurred with respect to the applicable Originator, (B) a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, (C) a Capital Coverage Deficit exists or (D) the Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount), any such reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable shall be paid solely in cash by the applicable Originator in accordance with clause (iii) above.
SECTION 3.4 Return of Certain Payments. If any Originator receives any cash payments or cash distributions from the Buyer or from Collections during any Fiscal Month (including in respect of the purchase price for Receivables, payments of principal or interest on any Subordinated Loans or dividends) at any time during which a Capital Coverage Deficit existed or resulted from such payments or distributions, such Originator shall return the amount of all such payments and distributions to the Buyer on the first Monthly Settlement Date following such Fiscal Month to be treated as Collections and applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that each Originator may net from the amount it is required to return to the Buyer, the amount (if any) that would otherwise be paid by the Buyer to such Originator on such Monthly Settlement Date in accordance with Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement from available Collections (including Collections returned to the Buyer by Originators pursuant to this paragraph and by the Servicer pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement). If any delay by an Originator to pay over such amounts causes the Buyer to incur the obligation to pay additional interest or fees in respect of such amounts under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, such Originator shall additionally pay over to the Buyer, to treated as Collections and applied in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, an amount sufficient to compensate the Buyer for the amount of such interest and fees.

(q) No Sanctions. No: (a) Covered Entity: (i) is a Sanctioned Person, nor any employees, officers, directors, affiliates, consultants, brokers or agents acting on a Covered Entity’s behalf in connection with this Agreement is a Sanctioned Person; (ii) directly, or indirectly through any third party, engages in any transactions or other dealings with any Sanctioned Person or Sanctioned Jurisdiction, or which otherwise are prohibited by any Applicable Laws of the United States or Applicable Laws of other applicable jurisdictions relating to economic sanctions and other Anti-Terrorism Laws; (b) Receivables or Related Rights are Embargoed Property.[Reserved].

Neither such Originator nor any Affiliate of such Originator acting on its behalf has delivered any Transaction Information to any Rating Agency without providing such Transaction Information to the applicable Group Agent prior to delivery to such Rating Agency. Neither such Originator nor any Affiliate of such Originator acting on its behalf has participated in any oral communications any Rating Agency in which such Originator or such Affiliate has provided any Transaction Information without the participation of the applicable Group Agent.
(s) Financial Condition. The consolidated balance sheets of such Originator and its consolidated Affiliates as of June 30, 2023 and the related statements of income and shareholders’ equity of such Originator and its consolidated Affiliates for the fiscal quarter then ended, copies of which have been furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Group Agents, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of such Originator and its consolidated Affiliates for the period ended on such date, all in accordance with GAAP.
(t) Bulk Sales Act. No transaction contemplated by this Agreement requires compliance by such Originator with any bulk sales act or similar law.

(v) Opinions. The factual statements contained in the opinions delivered by Skadden, Arps, Slate Meagher & Flom LLP on the Closing Date (or at any date thereafter on which such an opinion is delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Group Agents) with respect to “true sale” and “substantive consolidation” matters are, in each case, true and correct in all material respects with respect to such Originator, including that, no transfer is being made hereunder (A) with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any Person, (B) when the related Originator is insolvent or expects to become insolvent as a result of the transfers of its Receivables to Buyer, (C) when the related Originator is engaged or expected to engage in a business for which its remaining property represents an unreasonably small capitalization or (D)
15
1752800232
when the related Originator intends to incur or believes that it will incur indebtedness that it will not be able to repay at maturity.
(w) ERISA.
(i) Such Originator and its ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the provisions of the Code relating to Pension Plans and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder and any similar applicable non-U.S. law, except for such noncompliance that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Reportable Event has occurred during the past five years other than a Reportable Event that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The excess of the present value of all benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan (based on the assumptions used to determine required minimum contributions under Section 412 of the Code with respect to such Pension Plan), over the value of the assets of such Pension Plan, determined as of the most recent annual valuation date applicable thereto for which a valuation has been completed, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and the excess of the present value of all benefit liabilities of all underfunded Pension Plans (based on the assumptions used to determine required minimum contributions under Section 412 of the Code with respect to each such Pension Plan), over the value of the assets of all such underfunded Pension Plans, determined as of the most recent annual valuation dates applicable thereto for which valuations have been completed, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither such Originator nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has received any written notification that any Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or has been terminated within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA, or has knowledge that any Multiemployer Plan is reasonably expected to be in reorganization or to be terminated, where such reorganization or termination has had or would reasonably be expected to have, through increases in the contributions required to be made to such Pension Plan or otherwise, a Material Adverse Effect.
(ii) Such Originator and its ERISA Affiliates are in compliance (i) with all applicable provisions of law and all applicable regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to any employee pension benefit plan governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States and (ii) with the terms of any such plan, except, in each case, for such noncompliance that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(x) No Fraudulent Conveyance. With respect to each Receivable transferred to Buyer by such Originator hereunder, the applicable Purchase Price received by such Originator constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by such Originator of any Receivable hereunder is or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Code in the
16
1752800232
event of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to such Originator. No transfer of any Receivable by such Originator hereunder: (i) is made with any intent on the part of such Originator to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which such Originator is or will become indebted on or after the date of transfer, (ii) is made at a time such Originator is not Solvent, (iii) would render the Originator not Solvent as a result of such transfer, (iv) would cause such Originator to have an unreasonably small amount of capital, (v) would cause such Originator to be unable to pay its debts as they become due or (vi) is made with any intent on the part of such Originator to evade any applicable laws or public policy.
(y) Ordinary Course of Business. Each of the Originators and the Buyer represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of Collections by or on behalf of such Originator to the Buyer under this Agreement will have been (i) in payment of a debt incurred by such Originator in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Originator and the Buyer and (ii) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of such Originator and the Buyer.
(z) Good Title. Immediately preceding its sale or contribution of each Receivable hereunder, such Originator was the owner of such Receivable sold or contributed or purported to be sold or contributed, as the case may be, free and clear of any Adverse Claims, and each such sale or contribution hereunder constitutes a valid sale, transfer and assignment of all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables sold or contributed by it, free and clear of any Adverse Claims.
(aa) Perfection. On or before the date hereof and before the generation by such Originator of any new Receivable to be sold, contributed or otherwise conveyed hereunder, all financing statements and other documents, if any, required to be recorded or filed in order to perfect and protect the Buyer’s ownership interest in such Receivable have been duly filed in each filing office necessary for such purpose (or solely with respect to Receivables sold or contributed on the Closing Date and the initial sales and contributions hereunder, will be recorded or filed on or prior to the fifth Business Day following the Closing Date). Upon the creation of each new Receivable sold, contributed or otherwise conveyed or purported to be conveyed hereunder and on the Closing Date for then existing Receivables, the Buyer shall have a valid and perfected first priority ownership or security interest in each Receivable sold to it hereunder, free and clear of any Adverse Claim.
(bb) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Receivable sold or contributed by such Originator hereunder arises under a Contract that is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the outstanding balance of such Receivable, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

Each Originator will, and will cause the Servicer to, maintain such books and records necessary to identify Collections received from time to time on Pool Receivables and necessary to segregate such Collections received from other property of the Servicer and the Originators. If any Collections are received by an Originator other than in a Lock-Box Account, it shall hold such payments in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after receipt) remit such funds into a Lock-Box Account.

Each Originator shall comply in all material respects with all provisions required to be observed by it under the Credit and Collection Policy and the related Contract that are applicable with respect to each Pool Receivable conveyed by it hereunder.
(i) Fundamental Changes. Each Originator shall provide the Buyer and the Administrative Agent at least 30 days’ (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in writing) prior written notice before making any change in such Originator’s name, location or making any other change in such Originator’s identity or corporate structure that could impair or otherwise render any UCC financing statement filed in connection with this
19
1752800232
Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement “seriously misleading” as such term (or similar term) is used in the applicable UCC; each notice to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent pursuant to this sentence shall set forth the applicable change and the proposed effective date thereof.
(j) Change in Credit and Collection Policy. Except to the extent required by Applicable Law (in which case the applicable Originator shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent), no Originator will make any change in the Credit and Collection Policy that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect without the prior written consent of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Majority Group Agents.

10. Subordination Provisions. The Buyer covenants and agrees, and the Originator and any other holder of the Subordinated Loans (collectively, the Originator and any such other holder are called the “Holder”), by its acceptance of the Subordinated Loans, likewise covenants and agrees on behalf of itself and any Holder, that the payment of the principal amount of and interest on the Subordinated Loans is hereby expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment and performance of the Senior Interests to the extent and in the manner set forth in the following clauses of this paragraph 9:
(a) No payment or other distribution of the Buyer’s assets of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities, or other rights or property, shall be made on account of the Subordinated Loans except to the extent such payment or other distribution is (i) permitted under Section 7.01(s) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or (ii) made pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of paragraph 6 of the Subordinated Loans;
(b) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to the Buyer, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Buyer or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Buyer other than as permitted by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (such proceedings being herein collectively called “Bankruptcy Proceedings”), the Senior Interests shall first be paid and performed in full and in cash before the Originator shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of the
Exhibit A-3
1752800232
Subordinated Loans. In order to implement the foregoing: (i) all payments and distributions of any kind or character in respect of the Subordinated Loans to which the Holder would be entitled except for this clause (b) shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders); (ii) the Holder shall promptly file a claim or claims, in the form required in any Bankruptcy Proceedings, for the full outstanding amount of the Subordinated Loans, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause said claim or claims to be approved and all payments and other distributions in respect thereof to be made directly to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash; and (iii) the Holder hereby irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent (acting on behalf of the Purchasers), may in the name of the Holder or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent in any such Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to any and all claims of the Holder relating to the Subordinated Loans, in each case until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash;
(c) In the event that the Holder receives any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from the Buyer or from any other source whatsoever, in respect of the Subordinated Loans, other than as expressly permitted by the terms of this Subordinated Loan Agreement or the Transaction Documents, such payment or other distribution shall be received in trust for the Senior Interest Holders and shall be turned over by the Holder to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) forthwith. The Holder will mark its books and records so as clearly to indicate that the Subordinated Loans are subordinated in accordance with the terms hereof. All payments and distributions received by the Administrative Agent in respect of the Subordinated Loans, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first to the payment of any and all expenses (including Attorney Costs) paid or incurred by the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon the Subordinated Loans, and any balance thereof shall, solely as between the Originator and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by the Administrative Agent (in the order of application set forth in Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) toward the payment of the Senior Interests; but as between the Buyer and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Interests;
(d) Notwithstanding any payments or distributions received by the Senior Interest Holders in respect of the Subordinated Loans, while any Bankruptcy Proceedings are pending the Holder shall not be subrogated to the then existing rights of the Senior Interest Holders in respect of the Senior Interests until the Senior Interests have been paid and performed in full and in cash. If no Bankruptcy Proceedings are pending, the Holder shall only be entitled to exercise any subrogation rights that it may acquire (by reason of a payment or distribution to the Senior Interest Holders in respect of the Subordinated
Exhibit A-4
1752800232
Loans) to the extent that any payment arising out of the exercise of such rights would be permitted under Section 7.01(r) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement;
(e) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the Senior Interest Holders on the other hand. Nothing contained in these Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Subordinated Loan Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as between the Buyer, its creditors (other than the Senior Interest Holders) and the Holder, the Buyer’s obligation, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay the Holder the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Loans as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof or to affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Buyer (other than the Senior Interest Holders);
(f) The Holder shall not, until the Senior Interests have been paid and performed in full and in cash, (i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of the Buyer, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than the Senior Interests, the Subordinated Loans or any rights in respect hereof or (ii) convert the Subordinated Loans into an equity interest in the Buyer, unless the Holder shall, in either case, have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent;
(g) The Holder shall not, without the advance written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceedings with respect to the Buyer until at least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash;
(h) If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) of any Senior Interest is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior Interest Holder (whether in connection with Bankruptcy Proceedings or otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made;
(i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, without notice to the Holder, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property to secure any of the Senior Interests; (ii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests in accordance with the Transaction Documents, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iii) amend, supplement, amend and restate, or otherwise modify any Transaction Document, subject to the terms thereof; and (iv) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether
Exhibit A-5
1752800232
or not longer than the original period), or release or compromise any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property;
(j) The Holder hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon, the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any security therefor;
(k) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Documents to which such Persons are party, but without notice to the Holder, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior Interests, or any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Senior Interests shall be and remain Senior Interests for the purposes of these Subordination Provisions, and every immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Interests or of any interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Interests shall be entitled to the benefits of these Subordination Provisions to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were the assignor or transferor; and
(l) These Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and the Administrative Agent may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.
11. General. No failure or delay on the part of the Originator in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Subordinated Loan Agreement shall in any event be effective unless (i) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by the Buyer and the Holder and (ii) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.
12. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Subordinated Loan Agreement to the contrary, the Buyer shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder at a rate in excess of the maximum nonusurious interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received under applicable federal or state law (such maximum rate being herein called the “Highest Lawful Rate”). If the effective rate of interest which would otherwise be payable on the Subordinated Loans would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, or if the holder of the Subordinated Loans shall receive any unearned interest or shall receive monies that are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective rate of interest payable by the Buyer on the Subordinated Loans to a rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then (i) the amount of interest which would otherwise be payable by the Buyer on the Subordinated Loans shall be reduced to the amount allowed by Applicable Law, and (ii) any unearned interest paid by the Buyer or any interest paid by the Buyer in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate shall be
Exhibit A-6
1752800232
refunded to the Buyer. Without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received by the Originator under this Subordinated Loan that are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to the Originator (such Highest Lawful Rate being herein called the “Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate”) shall be made, to the extent permitted by usury laws applicable to the Originator (now or hereafter enacted), by amortizing, prorating and spreading in equal parts during the actual period during which any amount has been outstanding hereunder all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received by the Originator in connection herewith. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to the Originator on any date shall be computed at the Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to the Originator would be less than the amount of interest payable to the Originator computed at the Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate, then the amount of interest payable to the Originator in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Originator’s Maximum Permissible Rate until the total amount of interest payable to the Originator shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to the Originator if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to the provisions of the foregoing sentence.
13. Assignability. The Originator may not sell, transfer or assign (by operation of law or otherwise) this Subordinated Loan Agreement or any of the Subordinated Loans, unless (i) such assignment is from the Originator to a surviving Originator in connection with a merger or consolidation between such Originators or (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have otherwise given its prior written consent thereto in its sole discretion.
14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SUBORDINATED LOAN AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF).
15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO AND ANY HOLDER THAT ACQUIRES ANY INTEREST IN ANY SUBORDINATED LOANS HEREBY WAIVE, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS SUBORDINATED LOAN AGREEMENT, THE SUBORDINATED LOANS OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.
16. Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Subordinated Loan Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Subordinated Loan Agreement.

17. Execution in Counterparts. This Subordinated Loan Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart hereof by facsimile or other electronic means shall be equally effective as delivery of an originally executed counterpart.
