NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE AND SELL

SECTION 1.1 Agreement To Purchase and Sell. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Originator, severally and for itself, agrees to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer agrees to purchase from such Originator, from time to time on or after the Closing Date, but before the Purchase and Contribution Termination Date (as defined in Section 1.4), all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in and to:

(a) each Receivable (other than Contributed Receivables as defined in Section 3.1(a)) of such Originator that existed and was owing to such Originator at the closing of such Originator’s business on the Cut-Off Date (as defined below);

(b) each Receivable (other than Contributed Receivables) generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-Off Date to but excluding the Purchase and Contribution Termination Date;

(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 of which gave rise to such Receivable;

(d) all instruments and chattel paper that may evidence such Receivable;

(e) all letter of credit rights and 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;

(f) solely to the extent applicable to such Receivable, all of such Originator’s rights, interests and claims under the related Contracts and all guaranties, indemnities, insurance and other agreements (including the related Contract) or arrangements of whatever character from time to time supporting or securing payment of such Receivable or otherwise relating to such Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise;

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

(h) all Collections and other proceeds (as defined in the UCC) of any of the foregoing that are or were received by such Originator on or after the Cut-Off Date, including all funds which either are received by such Originator, the Buyer or the Servicer from or on behalf of the Obligors in payment of any amounts owed (including invoice price, finance charges,

interest and all other charges) in respect of any of the above Receivables or are applied to such amounts owed by the Obligors (including any insurance payments that such Originator, the Buyer or the Servicer applies in the ordinary course of its business to amounts owed in respect of any of the above Receivables, and net proceeds of sale or other disposition of Returned Goods or other collateral of the Obligors in respect of any of the above Receivables or any other parties directly or indirectly liable for payment of such Receivables).

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 Originators 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, including with respect to any Contributed Receivable, 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”.

As used herein, “Cut-Off Date” means (a) with respect to each Originator party hereto on the date hereof, May 31, 2022, and (b) with respect to any additional Originator that becomes a party hereto after the date hereof, the Business Day immediately prior to the date on which such Originator becomes a party hereto or such other date as the Buyer and such Originator agree to in writing.

SECTION 1.2 Timing of Purchases.

(a) Closing Date Purchases. Effective on the Closing Date, each Originator hereby sells to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Receivable (other than Contributed Receivables) that existed and was owing to such Originator at the Cut-Off Date, (ii) each Receivable (other than Contributed Receivables) generated by such Originator from and including the 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 Contribution Termination Date, each Receivable and the Related Rights generated by each 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 reflect all capital contributions in accordance with Article III.

SECTION 1.4 Purchase and Contribution Termination Date. The “Purchase and Contribution Termination Date” shall be the earliest to occur of (a) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated by any Contributing Originator pursuant to Section 3.1(e), (b) the date the Purchase Facility is terminated by Buyer (with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and (c) the Final Payout Date.

SECTION 1.5 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of each Originator and the Buyer that each conveyance by such Originator to the Buyer of the Receivables pursuant to this Agreement, including all Receivables, if any, constituting general intangibles as defined in the UCC, and all Related Rights be a true sale and/or contribution and be construed as a valid and perfected sale (or contribution) and an absolute and irrevocable assignment (without recourse except as provided herein) of such Receivables and Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer (rather than the grant of a security interest to secure a debt or other obligation of such Originator), providing the Buyer with the full risk and benefit of ownership of the Receivables and Related Rights, and that the right, title and interest in and to such Receivables and Related Rights conveyed to the Buyer be prior to the rights of and enforceable against all other Persons at any time, including lien creditors, secured lenders, purchasers and any Person claiming through such Originator. 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 (or contribution) and absolute assignment of such Receivables and Related Rights, then, it is the intent of each Originator and the Buyer that, (i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC and (ii) for the purpose of securing all obligations of such Originator hereunder, 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: (A) the Receivables and the Related Rights now existing and hereafter arising or created by such Originator transferred or purported to be transferred hereunder, (B) all monies due or to become due and all amounts received with respect thereto and (C) all books and records of such Originator to the extent related to any of the foregoing.

ARTICLE II

PURCHASE RECORDS; CALCULATION OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 2.1 Purchase Records. On the Closing Date and on or prior to each date when an Information Package is due to be delivered under the Receivables Purchase Agreement (each such date, a “Monthly Purchase Record Date”), the Servicer shall record in its books and records, which it shall maintain and make available to the Buyer and the Originators upon request, the following information (the “Purchase Records”):

(a) Receivables purchased by the Buyer from any Originator, or contributed to the capital of the Buyer by any Contributing Originator, on the Closing Date (in the case of the Purchase Records to be recorded on the Closing Date);

(b) Receivables purchased by the Buyer from any Originator, or contributed to the capital of the Buyer by any Contributing Originator, during the calendar month ended immediately preceding such Monthly Purchase Record Date (in the case of each Monthly Purchase Record Date after the Closing Date); and

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, no failure by the Servicer to maintain any Purchase Records, or the existence of any error therein, shall derogate from the Buyer’s and its assigns’ right, title and interest in, to or under any Receivables or Related Rights conveyed or purported to be conveyed to Buyer hereunder.

SECTION 2.2 Calculation of Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator on any Payment Date in accordance with the terms of Article III for the Receivables and the Related Rights that are purchased hereunder from such Originator shall be (i) determined in accordance with the following formula and (ii) subject to the reductions as provided in Sections 3.3(a) and (b):


PP	=	OB x FMVD

where:

PP	=	Purchase Price for each Receivable (and its Related Rights) as calculated on the relevant Payment Date.

OB	=	The Outstanding Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date.

FMVD	=	Fair Market Value Discount, as measured on such Payment Date, which is equal to the quotient (expressed as a percentage) of (a) one, divided by (b) the sum of (i) one, plus (ii) the product of (A) the Prime Rate on such Payment Date, times (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Days’ Sales Outstanding (calculated as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Payment Date) and the denominator of which is 365 or 366, as applicable.

“Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter on which any Receivable is generated by an Originator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, sale and/or contribution of Receivables and Related Rights, and the application of proceeds with respect thereto, shall occur on a daily basis in accordance with Section 1.2(b) and Sections 3.1 and 3.2; provided that (x) settlement as to the reporting or presentation of such transactions shall occur on the Monthly Purchase Record Date and (y) amounts owing to such Originator shall be payable at any time upon demand by the applicable Originator.

“Prime Rate” has the meaning assigned to such term in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

ARTICLE III

CONTRIBUTIONS AND PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE

SECTION 3.1 Initial Contribution of Receivables and Initial Purchase Price Payment.

(a) On the Closing Date, each applicable Contributing Originator shall, and hereby does, contribute to the capital of the Buyer certain Receivables and Related Rights

consisting of each Receivable and Related Rights of the applicable Contributing Originators that exists and is owing to the applicable Contributing Originators on the Closing Date such that the equity (taking into account any cash contributions made on or prior to the Closing Date) held by the Contributing Originators in the Buyer, after giving effect to such contribution of Receivables (the value of which shall be determined based on the Purchase Price definition) and Related Rights, shall be at least equal to the Required Capital Amount. Each Receivable and Related Rights contributed by any Contributing Originator to the capital of the Buyer hereunder is herein referred to as a “Contributed Receivable”.

(b) 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, including after giving effect to any advances made to the Buyer under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, partially in cash (in an amount to be agreed between the Buyer and such Originator and set forth in the initial Purchase Records) and, solely in the case of any Contributing Originator if elected by such Contributing Originator in its sole discretion, by accepting a contribution to the Buyer’s capital and (ii) the remainder by accepting a Subordinated Loan from the Servicer on behalf of such Originator that was made under the intercompany loan agreement in the form of Exhibit B (such intercompany loan agreement, as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercompany Loan Agreement”) with an initial principal amount equal to the aggregate remaining Purchase Price payable to the Originators not paid in cash or, in the case of the Contributing Originators, contributed to the Buyer’s capital.

(c) From time to time after the Closing Date, any Contributing Originator may (in its discretion) contribute to the capital of the Buyer additional Receivables and Related Rights, in lieu of selling such Receivables and Related Rights to Buyer pursuant to Section 1.1. In addition, if on any Business Day the Buyer’s Net Worth would be less than the Required Capital Amount after utilizing all the Buyer’s available cash and the Buyer’s incurrence of any necessary Subordinated Loans in order to pay in full the Purchase Price then due to the Originators hereunder, then the Contributing Originators shall, and hereby do (as of such time) contribute to the capital of the Buyer any additional Receivables and Related Rights then owing to such Contributing Originator (together with cash of such Contributing Originator if it lacks sufficient Receivables and Related Rights at such time) to the extent necessary to prevent the Buyer’s Net Worth from becoming less than the Required Capital Amount.

(d) The Contributing Originators and Servicer shall maintain records of all contributions to the capital of the Buyer hereunder. Notwithstanding such records (or lack thereof), any contributions of Receivables, Related Rights or cash to the capital of the Buyer that are required to be made by the Contributing Originators pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be made automatically and irrevocably on each day from the Closing Date until the Purchase and Contribution Termination Date.

(e) At any time when the Buyer’s Net Worth would be less than the Required Capital Amount absent additional capital contributions by the Contributing Originators pursuant to Section 3.1(c), any Contributing Originator may, with thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent, declare the Purchase Facility terminated; provided,

however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, no such declaration shall become effective until both the Buyer and the Administrative Agent have received such thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof from any Contributing Originator.

(f) Each Originator hereby authorizes the Servicer, and irrevocably appoints the Servicer as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of such Originator, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to (i) enter into the Intercompany Loan Agreement, (ii) enter into any amendment or waiver of the Intercompany Loan Agreement from time to time and (iii) take any and all other actions under or in connection with the Intercompany Loan Agreement or any Subordinated Loan, in each case, in the name and on behalf of such Originator. As used herein, “Subordinated Loan” has the meaning set forth in the Intercompany Loan Agreement.

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 the Purchase Price to each Originator for the Receivables and the Related Rights generated by such Originator and sold to the Buyer pursuant to Sections 1.1 and 1.2 on such Payment Date as follows:

(a) First, in cash to such Originator to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor, including pursuant to any Release or any available cash proceeds of Capital under the Receivables Purchase Agreement on or prior to such Payment Date (and such payment is not prohibited under the Receivables Purchase Agreement);

(b) Second, solely in the case of the Contributing Originators, if elected by any Contributing Originator 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 to its capital in an amount equal to such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price designated as a contribution to Buyer’s capital; and

(c) Third, to the extent any portion of the Purchase Price remains unpaid, a Subordinated Loan shall automatically be made by the Servicer on behalf of and for the benefit of such Originator to the Buyer with an initial principal amount equal to the lesser of (x) such remaining unpaid portion of such Purchase Price and (y) the maximum amount 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 any cash payments among the Originators in such a way as to minimize to the greatest extent practicable the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Subordinated Loans and (y) if on any Payment Date, the entire Purchase Price for any Receivable is not paid by the Buyer as a result of any of the limitations set forth above, then the Contributing Originators shall, and hereby do as of such Payment Date, automatically contribute to the capital of the Buyer any additional Receivables and Related Rights of the Contributing Originators (together with cash of the Contributing Originators if the Contributing Originators then lacks sufficient Receivables) to the extent necessary to permit the Buyer to satisfy its obligation to pay such Purchase Price in full.

“Net Worth” has the meaning set forth under “Seller’s Net Worth” in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

All amounts paid by the Buyer to any Originator shall be allocated first to the payment of any Purchase Price then due and unpaid, second to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Subordinated Loans made by the Servicer for the benefit of such Originator and third to the repayment of the outstanding principal amount on the Subordinated Loans made by the Servicer for the benefit of such Originator to the extent of such outstanding principal amount thereof as of the date of such payment, in each case before such amounts may be allocated for any other purpose.

The Servicer shall make all appropriate record keeping entries with respect to the Intercompany Loan Agreement to reflect (x) the foregoing payments and reductions made pursuant to Section 3.3 and (y) the portion of aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Intercompany Loan Agreement payable for the benefit of each Originator. The Servicer’s books and records shall constitute rebuttable presumptive evidence of (x) the principal amount of, and accrued interest on, under the Intercompany Loan Agreement at any time and (y) the respective portions of aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Intercompany Loan Agreement payable for the benefit of each Originator at any time.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3.3, any payments made by the Buyer in reduction of the outstanding principal balance under, or accrued and unpaid interest under the Intercompany Loan Agreement shall be allocated to the principal and interest payable for the benefit of the respective Originators ratably in accordance with the respective amounts of principal or interest, as applicable, payable for their benefit under the Intercompany Loan Agreement.

Each Originator acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Intercompany Loan Agreement and agrees to be bound by, and to comply with, all the terms of the Intercompany Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, the subordination provisions set forth therein.

If, on any Business Day, the Buyer is unable to pay the Purchase Price for Receivables and Related Rights pursuant to this Section 3.2, then the Originators shall on such Business Day provide written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.

(a) If, (i) on the day of purchase of any Receivable from an Originator hereunder, any of the representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.5, 5.12, 5.13, 5.21, 5.23, 5.26 or 5.27 are not true with respect to such Receivable or (ii) as a result of any action or inaction (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor) of such Originator, on any subsequent day, any of such representations or warranties set forth in Sections 5.5, 5.12, 5.13, 5.21, 5.23, 5.26 or 5.27 is no longer true with respect to such Receivable, then the Purchase Price for such Receivable shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below; provided that, if the Buyer thereafter receives payment on account of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, the Buyer promptly shall deliver such funds to such Originator.

(b) If, on any day, the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable purchased or contributed hereunder is either (i) reduced or canceled as a result of (A) any Returned Goods, defective, rejected or foreclosed goods or services, any cash or other discount, or any failure by an Originator to deliver any goods or perform any services or otherwise perform under the underlying Contract or invoice, (B) any change in or cancellation of any of the terms of such Contract or invoice or any other adjustment by an Originator, the Servicer or the Buyer which reduces the amount payable by the Obligor on the related Receivable, (C) any rebates, warranties, allowances or charge-backs or (D) any setoff or credit in respect of any claim by the Obligor thereof (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction), or (ii) subject to any specific dispute, offset, counterclaim or defense whatsoever (other than solely as a result of the failure to collect such Receivable due to a discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceeding or other credit related reasons with respect to the relevant Obligor), then the Purchase Price with respect to such Receivable shall be reduced by the amount of such net reduction or dispute and shall be accounted to such Originator as provided in clause (c) below.

(c) Any reduction in the Purchase Price of any Receivable pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above shall be applied as a credit for the account of the Buyer against the Purchase Price of Receivables subsequently purchased by the Buyer from such Originator hereunder; provided, however, if, on such day, there have been no purchases of Receivables from such Originator (or insufficiently large purchases of Receivables) to create a Purchase Price sufficient to so apply such credit against, the amount of such credit:

(i) to the extent of any outstanding principal balance under the Subordinated Loans made by the Servicer for the benefit of such Originator, shall be deemed to be a payment under, and shall be deducted from the outstanding principal amount of, the Subordinated Loans made by the Servicer for the benefit of such Originator; and

(ii) after making any deduction pursuant to clause (i) above, shall be paid in cash to the Buyer by such Originator in the manner and for application as described in the following proviso:

provided, further, that at any time (x) when an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default exists under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or (y) on or after the Termination Date or the Purchase and Contribution Termination Date, the amount of any such credit shall be paid by such Originator to the Buyer in cash by deposit of immediately available funds into a Collection Account for application by the Servicer to the same extent as if Collections of the applicable Receivable in such amount had actually been received on such date.

Each Originator will, at such Originator’s expense, during regular business hours with reasonable prior written notice (i) permit the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser or their respective agents or representatives to (A) examine and make copies of and abstracts from all books and records relating to the Pool Receivables or other Sold Assets and Seller Collateral, (B) visit the offices and properties of such Originator for the purpose of examining such books and records, and (C) discuss matters relating to the Pool Receivables, the other Sold Assets and Seller Collateral or such Originator’s performance hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party with any of the officers, directors, employees or independent public accountants of such Originator (provided that representatives of such Originator are present during such discussions) having knowledge of such matters and (ii) without limiting the provisions of clause (i) above, during regular business hours, at such Originator’s expense, upon reasonable prior written notice from the Buyer or the Administrative Agent, permit certified public accountants or other auditors acceptable to the Buyer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to conduct a review of its books and records with respect to the Pool Receivables and other Sold Assets and Seller Collateral; provided, that such Originator shall be required to reimburse the Administrative Agent for only one (1) such review pursuant to clause (ii) above in any twelve-month period, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

If any payments on the Pool Receivables or other Collections are received by such Originator in any manner other than directly in a Collection Account or Lock-Box, it shall hold such payments in trust for the benefit of the Buyer (and the Administrative Agent, the Purchasers and the other Secured Parties as the Buyer’s assignees) and promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after receipt) remit such funds into a Collection Account.

Except as otherwise permitted by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, no Originator will, or will permit the Servicer to, alter the delinquency status or adjust the Outstanding Balance or otherwise modify the terms of any Pool Receivable in any material respect, or amend, modify or waive, in any material respect, any term or condition of any related Contract. Each Originator shall at its expense, timely and fully perform and comply in all material respects with all provisions, covenants and other promises required to be observed by it under the Contracts related to the Pool Receivables, and timely and fully comply with the Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Pool Receivable and the related Contract.

(i) Fundamental Changes. Each Originator shall not make any change in such Originator’s name, location or make 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 Agreement or the Receivables Purchase Agreement “seriously misleading” as such term (or similar term) is used in the applicable UCC, in each case, unless the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser have each (A) received thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof, (B) consented in writing thereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (C) received executed copies of all documents, certificates and opinions (including opinions relating to bankruptcy and UCC matters) as the Buyer or the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request and (D) been reasonably satisfied that all other action to perfect and protect the interests of the Buyer and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Purchasers, in and to the Receivables to be sold or contributed by it hereunder and other Related Rights, as reasonably requested by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent shall have been taken by, and at the expense of, such Originator (including the filing of any UCC financing statements, the receipt of certificates and other requested documents from public officials and all such other actions required pursuant to Section 7.3).

(j) Change in Credit and Collection Policy. No Originator will make, or direct the Servicer to make, any material change in the Credit and Collection Policy without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Promptly following any change in the Credit and Collection Policy, each Originator will deliver a copy of the updated Credit and Collection Policy to the Buyer, Administrative Agent and each Purchaser.

(k) Books and Records. Each Originator will maintain and implement (or cause the Servicer to maintain and implement) administrative and operating procedures (including (i) an ability to recreate records evidencing Pool Receivables and related Contracts in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof and (ii) procedures to identify and track sales with respect to, and collections on, Excluded Receivables), and keep and maintain (or cause the Servicer to keep and maintain) all documents, books, records, computer tapes and disks and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the collection of all Pool Receivables and the identification and reporting of all Excluded Receivables (including records adequate to permit the daily identification of each Pool Receivable and Excluded Receivable and all Collections of and adjustments to each existing Pool Receivable and Excluded Receivable).

(l) Ownership Interest, Etc. Each Originator shall (and shall cause the Servicer to), at its expense, take all action necessary or reasonably desirable to establish and maintain a valid and enforceable ownership or security interest in the Pool Receivables, the Related Rights and Collections with respect thereto, and a first priority perfected security interest in the Sold Assets and Seller Collateral, in each case free and clear of any Adverse Claim (other than Permitted Adverse Claims), in favor of the Buyer (and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), as the Buyer’s assignee), including taking such action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of the Buyer (and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), as the Buyer’s assignee) as the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may reasonably request. In order to evidence the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, each Originator shall, from time to time take such action, or execute and deliver such instruments as may be necessary (including such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent) to maintain and perfect, as a first-priority interest, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Receivables, Related Security and Collections. Each Originator shall, from time to time and within the time limits established by law, prepare and present to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent’s authorization and approval, all financing statements, amendments or continuations, or other filings necessary to continue, maintain and perfect the Buyer’s and the Administrative Agent’s security interest as a first-priority interest. The Administrative Agent’s approval of such filings shall authorize such Originator to file such financing statements under the UCC without the signature of such Originator, any other Originator, the Buyer or the Administrative Agent where allowed by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything else in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, each Originator shall not have any authority to file a termination, partial termination, release, partial release, or any amendment that deletes the name of a debtor or excludes collateral of any such financing statements filed in connection with the Transaction Documents, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(m) Further Assurances. Each Originator hereby authorizes and hereby agrees from time to time, at its own expense, promptly to execute (if necessary) and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further actions, that may be reasonably necessary or

desirable, or that the Buyer, the Servicer, any Purchaser or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the purchases and contributions made hereunder or under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and/or security interest granted pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to enable the Buyer or the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) to exercise and enforce their respective rights and remedies hereunder, under the Receivables Purchase Agreement or under any other Transaction Document. Without limiting the foregoing, such Originator hereby authorizes, and will, upon the request of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent, at such Originator’s own expense, execute (if necessary) and file such financing statements or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments and documents, that may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or that the Buyer or Administrative Agent may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or evidence any of the foregoing.

(a) such Originator shall not be involved in the day to day management of the Buyer;

(b) such Originator shall maintain separate records and books of account from the Buyer and otherwise will observe corporate formalities and have a separate area from the Buyer for its business (which may be located at the same address as the Buyer, and, to the extent that it and the Buyer have offices in the same location, there shall be a fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs between them, and each shall bear its fair share of such expenses);

(c) the financial statements and books and records of such Originator shall be prepared after the date of creation of the Buyer to reflect and shall reflect the separate existence of the Buyer; provided, that the Buyer’s assets and liabilities may be included in a consolidated financial statement issued by an Affiliate of the Buyer; provided, however, that any such consolidated financial statement or the notes thereto shall make clear that the Buyer’s assets are not available to satisfy the obligations of such Affiliate;

requested in accordance with this Agreement that an Originator reimburse such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any proceeding, such Originator shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without such Originator’s written consent if (x) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such Originator of such request for reimbursement and (y) such Originator shall not have reimbursed such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement) and (v) Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Amounts resulted from disputes arising solely among Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Parties (other than the Administrative Agent or the Structuring Agent) and that do not involve any act or omission by any Originator or any of their Affiliates).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely for purposes of such Originator’s indemnification obligations in this Article IX, any representation, warranty or covenant qualified by the occurrence or non-occurrence of a material adverse effect or similar concepts of materiality shall be deemed to be not so qualified.

If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Originators, jointly and severally, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of such Originator and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of such Originator and its Affiliates and such Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of such Originator under this Section 9.1 shall be in addition to any liability which such Originator may otherwise have (without duplication), shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to the Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, permitted assigns, heirs and personal representatives of such Originator and the Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Parties. Any indemnification or contribution under this Section 9.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.1 Amendments, etc.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement may from time to time be amended, modified or waived, if such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing and executed by the Buyer, the Servicer and each Originator, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Purchasers.

(b) No failure or delay on the part of the Buyer, the Servicer, any Originator, the Administrative Agent or any third-party beneficiary 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 notice to or demand on the Buyer, the Servicer or any Originator in any case shall entitle it to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No waiver or approval by the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or the Servicer under this Agreement shall, except as may otherwise be stated in such waiver or approval, be applicable to subsequent transactions. No waiver or approval under this Agreement shall require any similar or dissimilar waiver or approval thereafter to be granted hereunder.

(c) The Transaction Documents contain a final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter thereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

SECTION 10.2 Notices, etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including facsimile or electronic mail communication) and shall be delivered or sent by facsimile, electronic mail, or by overnight mail, to the intended party at the mailing or electronic mail address or facsimile number of such party set forth under its name on Schedule IV hereof or at such other address or facsimile number as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto or in the case of the Administrative Agent or any Purchaser, at their respective address for notices pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. All such notices and communications shall be effective (i) if delivered by overnight mail, when received, and (ii) if transmitted by facsimile or electronic mail, when sent, receipt confirmed by telephone or electronic means.

SECTION 10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Without limiting the foregoing, Harsco and each Originator hereby authorizes the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser (collectively, the “Set-off Parties”), at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off, against any obligations of Harsco or such Originator to such Set-off Party arising in connection with the Transaction Documents (including amounts payable pursuant to Section 9.1) that are then due and payable or that are not then due and payable but have accrued, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and any and all indebtedness at any time owing by, any Set-off Party to or for the credit or the account of Harsco or such Originator.

SECTION 10.4 Binding Effect; Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Buyer and each Originator and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Originator nor the Servicer may assign any of its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and each Purchaser, except as otherwise herein specifically provided. This Agreement shall create and constitute the continuing obligations of the parties hereto in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the parties hereto shall agree. The rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made by any Originator pursuant to Article V and the indemnification and payment provisions of Article IX and Section 10.6 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

THIS 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), EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION OF A SECURITY INTEREST OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 10.6 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. In addition to the obligations of the Originators under Article IX, each Originator, severally and for itself alone, and Harsco, jointly and severally with each Originator, agrees to pay on demand:

(a) to the Buyer (and any successor and permitted assigns thereof) and any third-party beneficiary of the Buyer’s rights hereunder all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement (together with all amendments, restatements, supplements, consents and waivers, if any, from time to time hereto), including (i) the reasonable and documented Attorney Costs for the Buyer (and any successor and permitted assigns thereof) and any third-party beneficiary of the Buyer’s rights hereunder with respect thereto and with respect to advising any such Person as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) subject to Section 6.1(e), reasonable and documented out-of-pocket accountants’, auditors’ and consultants’ fees and expenses for the Buyer (and any successor and permitted assigns thereof) and any third-party beneficiary of the Buyer’s rights hereunder incurred in connection with the administration and maintenance of this Agreement or advising any such Person as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement or as to any actual or reasonably claimed breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(b) to the Buyer (and any successor and permitted assigns thereof) and any third-party beneficiary of the Buyer’s rights hereunder all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented Attorney Costs), of any such Person incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of their respective rights or remedies under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; and

(c) all Other Taxes payable in connection with the execution, delivery, filing and recording of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to indemnify each Purchase and Contribution Indemnified Party against any liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omitting to pay such Taxes.

SECTION 10.7 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. (a) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT

PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT THEY MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES OF SUCH PROCESS TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS SPECIFIED IN SCHEDULE IV. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION 10.7 SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

SECTION 10.8 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, 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 AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

SECTION 10.9 Captions and Cross References; Incorporation by Reference. The various captions (including the table of contents) in this Agreement are included for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. References in this Agreement to any underscored Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit are to such Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit of this Agreement, as the case may be. The Schedules and Exhibits hereto are hereby incorporated by reference into and made a part of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.10 Execution in Counterparts. This 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.

SECTION 10.11 Acknowledgment and Agreement. By execution below, each Originator expressly acknowledges and agrees that all of the Buyer’s rights, title, and interests in, to, and under this Agreement (but not its obligations), shall be collaterally assigned by the Buyer to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and each Originator consents to such collateral assignment. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Purchasers and the Administrative Agent are third-party beneficiaries of the rights of the Buyer arising hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which any Originator is a party, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Administrative Agent, and not the Buyer, shall have the sole right to exercise all such rights and related remedies.

SECTION 10.12 No Proceeding. Each Originator hereby agrees that it will not institute, or join any other Person in instituting, against the Buyer any Insolvency Proceeding for at least one year and one day following the Final Payout Date. Each Originator further agrees that notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Buyer shall not, and shall not be obligated to, pay any amount in respect of any Subordinated Loan, the Intercompany Loan Agreement or otherwise to such Originator pursuant to this Agreement unless the Buyer has received funds which may, subject to Section 3.01 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, be used to make such payment. Any amount which the Buyer does not pay pursuant to the operation of the preceding sentence shall not constitute a claim (as defined in §101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against, or corporate obligation of, the Buyer by such Originator for any such insufficiency unless and until the provisions of the foregoing sentence are satisfied. The agreements in this Section 10.12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.13 Mutual Negotiations. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are the product of mutual negotiations by the parties thereto and their counsel, and no party shall be deemed the draftsperson of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any provision hereof or thereof or to have provided the same. Accordingly, in the event of any inconsistency or ambiguity of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, such inconsistency or ambiguity shall not be interpreted against any party because of such party’s involvement in the drafting thereof.

SECTION 10.14 Limited Recourse. Except as explicitly set forth herein and in the Performance Guaranty, the obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party are solely the obligations of the Buyer. No recourse under any Transaction Document shall be had against, and no liability shall attach to, any officer, employee, director, or beneficiary, whether directly or indirectly, of the Buyer. The agreements in this Section 10.14 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.15 Joint and Several Liability. Each of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, indemnities and other undertakings of any Originator hereunder shall be made jointly and severally, and are joint and several liabilities of each of the Originators hereunder.

SECTION 10.16 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to this Agreement and any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including Joinder Agreements, amendments or other waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 10.17 Severability. Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
