RECEIVABLES SALE AND CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (U.S.)

THIS RECEIVABLES SALE AND CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (U.S.) (as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of October 11, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), is by and between (a) SCP Distributors LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SCP Distributors”), Horizon Distributors, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Superior Pool Products LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Poolfx Supply LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (each of the foregoing, together with its successors, an “Originator” and collectively, the “Originators”), and (b) Superior Commerce LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Buyer” or the “SPE”). Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I hereto or, if not defined in Exhibit I hereto, the meanings assigned to such terms in the RPA (as hereinafter defined), as applicable.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Each of the Originators now owns, and from time to time hereafter will own, Receivables. Each of the Originators wishes to sell and assign, and, as applicable, contribute, to the Buyer, and the Buyer wishes to purchase and acquire from such Originators, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to such Receivables, together with the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto.

Each of the Originators and the Buyer intend the transactions contemplated hereby to be true sales or, as applicable, outright contributions of Receivables from such Originator to the Buyer, providing the Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of the Receivables originated by such Originator, and none of the Originators nor the Buyer intend these transactions to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from the Buyer to any Originator.

Following the sale or contribution of Receivables by the Originators, as applicable, the SPE will sell undivided interests in the Receivables and the associated Related Security and Collections pursuant to that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of October 11, 2013 (as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, supplemented, restated, amended and restated or otherwise modified, the “RPA”) among the SPE, as Seller, SCP Distributors LLC, as initial Servicer, the purchasers from time to time party thereto (the “Purchasers”), and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Purchasers (the “Administrative Agent”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

CONTRIBUTIONS AND SALES

Section 1.1.Initial Contribution. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, SCP Distributors hereby contributes to the capital of the Buyer, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement), and the Buyer hereby accepts as a capital contribution from SCP Distributors, all of SCP Distributors’ right, title and interest in and to SCP Distributors’ Receivables existing as of the close of business on the Cut-Off Date having an aggregate Outstanding Balance of at least $4,174,759 (the “Initial Contributed Receivables” and, together with the Additional Contributed Receivables, as hereinafter defined, “Contributed Receivables”) together with all Related Security relating thereto and all Collections thereof.

Section 1.2.Purchases of Receivables; Intention of the Parties.

(a) Effective on the Closing Date, in consideration of the Purchase Price and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, each of the Originators hereby sells, assigns, transfers, sets-over and otherwise conveys to the Buyer, without recourse (except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement), and the Buyer hereby purchases from such Originator, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to (i) all Receivables (other than, if applicable, Contributed Receivables) originated by such Originator and existing as of the close of business on the Cut-Off Date, (ii) all Receivables (other than, if applicable, Contributed Receivables) originated by such Originator thereafter through and including the Termination Date, and (iii) all Related Security and Collections of the aforementioned Receivables, in each case, whether now owned and existing or hereafter arising or acquired. The Buyer shall be obligated to pay the Purchase Price for the Receivables purchased from each Originator hereunder in accordance with Section 1.3. In connection with each acquisition of Receivables hereunder, the Buyer may request that each Originator deliver, and such Originator shall deliver, such approvals, opinions, information, reports or documents as the Buyer reasonably requests.

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each sale or contribution of any Receivables by an Originator shall constitute a true sale or contribution which is absolute and irrevocable and provides the Buyer with the full benefits of ownership of such Receivables and the associated Related Security and Collections. Except for the Purchase Price Credits owed pursuant to Section 1.4, each sale and contribution of Receivables hereunder is made without recourse to any Originator; provided, however, that (i) each Originator shall be liable to the Buyer for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by such Originator pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Documents to which such Originator is a party, and (ii) such sale does not constitute and is not intended to result in an assumption by the Buyer or any assignee thereof of any obligation of any Originator or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or the other Related Security or any other obligations of any Originator. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that each sale and contribution of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a true sale or contribution of such Receivables rather than a loan secured thereby, each of the Originators agrees that it has marked, in accordance with Section 4.1(e)(ii), its general ledger relating to the Receivables originated by it with a legend reasonably acceptable to the Buyer and to the Administrative Agent (as the Buyer’s assignee), evidencing that the Buyer has acquired such Receivables as provided in this Agreement and noting in its financial statements that its Receivables have been sold to the Buyer or its assigns. Upon the request of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent (as the Buyer’s assignee), each of the Originators will execute (if required) and file or authorize the filing of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain the perfection of the Buyer’s ownership of the Receivables

originated by such Originator and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, or as the Buyer or the Administrative Agent (as the Buyer’s assignee) may reasonably request.

Section 1.3.Payment for the Receivables.

(a) The Purchase Price for Receivables originated by each Originator and in existence as of the close of business on the Cut-Off Date (other than Initial Contributed Receivables) shall be paid by the Buyer to the applicable Originator on the Closing Date in the following manner:

(i)By delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds made available to the SPE by the Administrative Agent under the RPA or other cash on hand; and

(ii)The balance, by delivery of the proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from such Originator to Buyer (each, a “Subordinated Loan”) in an amount that is not to exceed the least of (A) the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price, (B) the maximum Subordinated Loan that could be borrowed without rendering Buyer’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount, and (C) fifteen percent (15%) of such Purchase Price.

Each Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to endorse on the schedule attached to its Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of the Buyer thereunder.

(b) The Purchase Price for each Receivable coming into existence after the close of business on the Cut-Off Date (other than Contributed Receivables) shall be due and owing in full by the Buyer to the applicable Originator or its designee on the date each such Receivable comes into existence and shall be payable not later than the Settlement Date immediately following the end of the Calculation Period in which such Receivable came into existence in the manner provided in the following paragraphs (c) and (d).

(c) The Purchase Price for each Receivable described in the preceding paragraph (b) shall be payable by the Buyer to the applicable Originator on the Settlement Date immediately following the end of the Calculation Period in which such Receivable came into existence in the following manner:

first, by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds then available to the Buyer pursuant to the RPA or from other cash on hand;

second, by delivery of the proceeds of a Subordinated Loan, provided that the making of any such Subordinated Loan shall be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 1.3(a)(ii); and

third, solely in the case of Receivables originated by SCP Distributors, by accepting a contribution to the Buyer’s capital in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price (with any Receivables paid for in the manner described in this clause third being hereinafter referred to as “Additional Contributed Receivables”).

Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.3(a)(ii), each Originator irrevocably agrees to advance each Subordinated Loan requested by the Buyer on or prior to the Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the applicable Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which the Buyer is not required under the RPA to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Administrative Agent or the Purchasers.

(d) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable (other than an Additional Contributed Receivable) coming into existence after the close of business on the Cut-Off Date shall be due and owing in full by the Buyer to the applicable Originator on the date such Receivable comes into existence, settlement of the Purchase Price between the Buyer and such Originator shall be effected on Settlement Dates with respect to all Receivables coming into existence during the same Calculation Period and based on the information contained in the Settlement Report delivered by the Servicer pursuant to the RPA for the Calculation Period then most recently ended. Although settlement shall be effected on Settlement Dates, increases or decreases in the amount owing under the Subordinated Notes pursuant to Section 1.3(c) and any contribution of capital by SCP Distributors to Buyer made pursuant to Section 1.3(c) shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the last Business Day of the Calculation Period to which such settlement relates.

Section 1.4.Purchase Price Credit Adjustments.

(a) If, on any day, (i) a Receivable is subject to a Dispute, then such Receivable shall become a Disputed Receivable and the Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) from the applicable Originator in an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable; or (ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result of (A) any cash discount, rebate, refund or other adjustment by such Originator, (B) any setoff, recoupment, defense or counterclaim in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related or an unrelated transaction), (C) any mistake by such Originator or the Servicer in computing or reporting the Outstanding Balance thereof, or (D) any governmental or regulatory action, then, on such day, such Receivable shall become a Disputed Receivable and the Buyer shall be entitled to a Purchase Price Credit from such Originator in the amount of such reduction or cancellation. Without limiting the foregoing, if, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable is reduced as a result of any return of goods, discounts, credits, allowances or anticipation reductions taken by an Obligor, such Receivable shall become a Disputed Receivable and the Buyer shall be entitled to a Purchase Price Credit from such Originator in the amount of such return, discount, credit, allowance or anticipation reduction.

(b) If, on any day, any of the representations or warranties of any Originator set forth in Section 2.1(i), Section 2.1(j), Section 2.1(r), Section 2.1(s) or Section 2.1(t) proves to have been untrue when made with respect to any Receivable sold by such Originator to the Buyer, then, on such day, each such Receivable shall become a Disputed Receivable and the Buyer shall be entitled to a Purchase Price Credit from such Originator in an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable.

(c) Each Purchase Price Credit shall be payable to the Buyer by the applicable Originator out of funds not constituting Collections on or before the next succeeding Settlement Date, together with interest until paid, payable monthly in arrears at a rate per annum equal to LMIR (or, if LMIR is not available or has been suspended in accordance with the RPA, the Alternate Base Rate). Purchase Price Credits and interest thereon owing may be netted against the amount of Subordinated Loans and/or against the amount of any Purchase Price then payable by the Buyer to the applicable Originator.

Section 1.5.Payments and Interest Computations. All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Buyer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account designated from time to time by each Originator or as otherwise directed by such Originator. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Originator hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof on the day when due in immediately available funds to the account designated from time to time by the Buyer or as otherwise directed by the Buyer. In the event that any payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. All computations of interest payable 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.

Section 1.6.Transfer of Records.

(a) In connection with its sale of Receivables by an Originator hereunder, such Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to the Buyer all of such Originator’s right and title to and interest in the Records relating to such Receivables, without the need for any further documentation in connection with the purchase. In connection with such transfer, such Originator hereby grants to the Buyer, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by such Originator to account for the Receivables, to the extent necessary to administer its Receivables, whether such software is owned by such Originator or is owned by others and used by such Originator under license agreements with respect thereto, provided that should the consent of any licensor of such software be required for the grant of the license described herein, to be effective, such Originator hereby agrees that upon the request of the Buyer (or the Administrative Agent as its assignee), such -Originator will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such third-party licensor. The license granted hereby shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms.

(b) Each of the Originators (i) shall take such action requested by the Buyer and/or the Administrative Agent (as the Buyer’s assignee), from time to time hereafter, that may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Buyer has an enforceable ownership interest, and each of its assigns has an enforceable Security Interest, in the Records relating to the Receivables purchased from such Originator hereunder, and (ii) shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Servicer each has an enforceable right (whether by license, sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used to account for such Receivables and/or to recreate such Records.

Section 1.7.Characterization; Assignment to the Administrative Agent.

(a) If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 1.2(b), the sale by any Originator to the Buyer of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not a sale, or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable, then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law. For this purpose and without being in derogation of the parties’ intention that each sale of Receivables by an Originator hereunder shall constitute a true sale, such Originator hereby grants to the Buyer a continuing Security Interest in all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under all Receivables now existing and hereafter arising, all Collections and Related Security with respect thereto, each Post Office Box, Lock-Box, Lock-Box Account and Collection Account, and all proceeds of the foregoing, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the Purchase Price of the Receivables conveyed by such Originator together with all other obligations of such Originator hereunder, which Security Interest shall be prior to all other Adverse Claims thereto. The Buyer and its assigns shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which they may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

(b) Each Originator acknowledges that the Buyer shall assign to the Administrative Agent and its assigns, all of the Buyer’s rights, remedies, powers and privileges hereunder and that the Administrative Agent may further assign such rights, remedies, powers and privileges to the extent permitted in the RPA. Each Originator agrees that the Administrative Agent, as the assignee of the Buyer, shall, subject to the terms of the RPA, have the right to enforce this Agreement and to exercise directly all of the Buyer’s rights and remedies under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to give or withhold any consents or approvals of the Buyer to be given or withheld hereunder, and, in any case, without regard to whether specific reference is made to the Buyer’s assigns in the provisions of this Agreement which set forth such rights and remedies) and each Originator agrees to cooperate fully with the Administrative Agent in the exercise of such rights and remedies. Each Originator further agrees to give to the Administrative Agent copies of all notices it is required to give to the Buyer hereunder.

The Originators will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the overall percentage of Collections made to Sales Centers does not materially increase.

(j)Insurance. Such Originator will maintain or cause to be maintained with financially sound and reputable insurers, insurance against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by reputable companies in the same or similar businesses, such insurance to be of such types and in such amounts as is customary for such companies under similar circumstances.

(a)Accounting for Purchase. Such Originator will not account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise) the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than the sale or contribution, as applicable, of the Receivables and the Related Security by such Originator to the Buyer except to the extent that such transactions are not recognized on account of consolidated financial reporting in accordance with GAAP.
