(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Purchase shall convey to each Facility Agent (for the benefit of its Purchasers), to the extent of its Purchase Group Percentage of the Receivable Interests, an undivided ownership interest in the Receivables, Related Security, Collections and Proceeds in respect thereof and that such transaction shall not constitute a secured loan.

It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Issuance or Modification of a Letter of Credit shall convey to each Facility Agent (for the benefit of it related LC Bank(s) and Purchasers), to the extent of its Purchase Group Percentage of the Receivable Interest, a first priority security interest in the Collateral, securing repayment of all Reimbursement Obligations and Participation Advances and all other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents, the Purchasers and the LC Banks hereunder. “Collateral” shall mean the Seller’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (a) (i) the Receivables, (ii) the Related Security with respect to such Receivables, (iii) all Collections, and (iv) the Lockboxes, Lockbox Accounts, the Depositary Accounts and the LC Cash Collateral Account and (b) all Proceeds of any of the foregoing.

Each Purchase Notice shall specify (a) the Purchase Price requested to be paid to the Seller and the allocation among the Purchase Groups (which shall be based on their respective Purchase Group Percentages) and (b) the date of such requested Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, for any Purchase Group that includes a Conduit Purchaser, if any Conduit Purchaser in such Purchase Group chooses not to purchase (through its related Facility Agent) an Incremental Purchase, the applicable Committed Purchaser in such Conduit Purchaser’s Purchase Group shall purchase (through the related Facility Agent) such Incremental Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Incremental Purchases shall be allocated among the Facility Agents pro rata in accordance with the respective Purchase Group Percentages. No Facility Agent shall have any obligation to make an Incremental Purchase on any day if the conditions set forth in Section 3.03 hereof are not satisfied. No Facility Agent, on behalf of its related Purchaser(s), shall make any such Purchase at or after the Termination Date. Each Incremental Purchase shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000 or any higher multiple of $1,000,000. Each Facility Agent shall purchase its related Purchase Group Percentage of each Incremental Purchase. Reimbursement Purchases will be made on the same terms as are set forth in this Section 2.02, except that (i) one Business Day’s notice will be permissible, (ii) the minimum amount of a Reimbursement Purchase shall be $1,000,000 and (iii) the Purchase Notice shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent.

-33-


Purchase Price for such Incremental Purchase. The Purchase Price of the initial Incremental Purchase shall equal the initial Aggregate Net Investment; each Facility Agent, on behalf of its Purchase Group, shall pay its Purchase Group Percentage of such initial Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of each subsequent Incremental Purchase shall equal the amount by which the Aggregate Net Investment is increased by such Incremental Purchase and shall be funded by the Facility Agents, pro rata on the basis of their respective Purchase Group Percentages. Each Purchase Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on the Seller and Seller shall pay Break Funding Costs under Section 2.07(c) incurred as a result of any failure by the Seller to complete such Incremental Purchase

(b) On the day of each Reimbursement Purchase, the Facility Agents, on behalf of the applicable Purchaser(s) shall pay to the applicable LC Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the Purchase Price for such Reimbursement Purchase. The Purchase Price for a Reimbursement Purchase shall be equal to the amount drawn under the Letter of Credit. Each Facility Agent, on behalf of its Purchase Group, shall pay its Purchase Group Percentage of the Purchase Price for each Reimbursement Purchase. The Aggregate Net Investment shall be increased by the amount of each Purchase Price for a Reimbursement Purchase.

Section 2.04. Payments to Seller. The Purchase Price for each Purchase and all other amounts paid by any Facility Agent or the Administrative Agent hereunder to the Seller shall be made to the Servicer’s account designated by the Seller to the Facility Agents and the Administrative Agent on the Closing Date or to such other account as the Seller may hereafter designate to the Administrative Agent in writing.

Section 2.05. Reinvestment Purchases. Subject to Section 3.03 hereof, on each Business Day occurring after the initial Incremental Purchase or Reimbursement Purchase, whichever first occurs hereunder, and prior to the Termination Date, the Seller hereby sells as set forth in Section 2.01 to the Facility Agents, for the benefit of the applicable Purchaser(s), and each Facility Agent shall, on behalf of the related Purchaser(s), purchase from the Seller undivided percentage ownership interests in each and every Receivable Interest not previously purchased to the extent that Collections are available for such Purchase in accordance with Section 2.08(a) hereof (each, a “Reinvestment Purchase”), such that after giving effect to such Purchase (and for each Facility Agent that is making such Reinvestment Purchase), (i) the amount of the Aggregate Net Investment of such Facility Agents, for the benefit of their respective Purchaser(s), at the end of each such day shall be equal to the amount of the Aggregate Net Investment of such Facility Agents, for the benefit of the related Purchaser(s), at the end of the day immediately preceding such day, plus the Purchase Price paid with respect to any Incremental Purchase or Reimbursement Purchase made on such day, if any, minus the reduction in Aggregate Net Investment pursuant to Section 2.08(b), 2.09, 2.15(b) or 2.16 hereof made on such day, if any, and (ii) such Facility Agent’s (for the benefit of its related Purchaser(s)) Purchase Group Net Investment, at the end of each such day shall be equal to the amount of its Purchase Group Net Investment at the end of the day immediately preceding such day, plus its Purchase Group Percentage of the Purchase Price paid with respect to any Incremental Purchase or Reimbursement Purchase made on such day, if any, minus its pro rata portion of the reduction in the Aggregate Net Investment pursuant to Section 2.08(b), 2.09, 2.15(b) or 2.16 hereof made on such day. Subject to the terms and

 

-34-


conditions hereof, each such Reinvestment Purchase shall be allocated among the Facility Agents pro rata in accordance with the Purchase Group Percentage of the related Purchase Group.

Section 2.06. [Reserved]

Section 2.07. Yield and Fees; Break Funding Costs. (a) The Seller shall pay the Facility Agents (for distribution to the Purchasers and LC Banks, as applicable) Yield due on their Net Investment or Participation Advances, as applicable, on each Settlement Date. On the Business Day before each Settlement Date, each Facility Agent will provide the Seller and the Servicer with an invoice showing (a) the Yield due on the Net Investment funded by the Purchaser(s) in its Purchase Group and (b) the Yield due on the Reimbursement Obligations owed by the Seller to the LC Banks and Purchaser(s) in its Purchase Group, in each case, on such Settlement Date.

(b) The Seller shall pay the Facility Agents (for distribution to the Purchasers and LC Banks, as applicable) and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the non-refundable fees set forth in the Transaction Fee Letters on Settlement Dates. For each Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent and each Facility Agent will provide the Seller and Servicer with an invoice showing the fees due to it and/or the Purchasers and LC Banks in its Purchase Group on such Settlement Date.

(c) The Seller shall pay Break Funding Costs to the Facility Agent for any Purchaser whose funding of its portion of Net Investment gives rise to Break Funding Costs on any Reduction Date. The Facility Agent for such Purchaser shall provide a certificate to the Seller and Servicer showing the calculation of such Break Funding Costs and the basis therefor. Break Funding Costs in connection with the payment of an Optional Reduction Amount or a Mandatory Reduction Amount shall be due and payable at the time such Optional Reduction Amount and Mandatory Reduction Amount is paid. Break Funding Costs in connection with the reduction of Net Investment without the required notice or due to an assignment by a Conduit Purchaser to its Support Provider shall be due and payable on the date of such reduction or assignment. Break Funding Costs in connection with the failure to make a requested Incremental Purchase shall be due and payable on the day such Incremental Purchase was requested to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Break Funding Costs shall be payable until one Business Day after the Seller shall have received from the applicable Facility Agent the certificate specified above.

(d) All payments made by the Seller or the Servicer to any Facility Agent shall be made to the account designated by such Facility Agent on Schedule I hereto.

(e) The calculations of amounts owing to any Facility Agent (for itself or on behalf of its Purchase Group) or to the Administrative Agent in any invoice or certificate provided in this Section 2.07 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.08. Settlements and Other Payment Procedures. (a) The Servicer shall, on each day before a Termination Date on which Collections of Receivables are received or deemed received by it:

 

-35-


(i) set aside on its books and records and hold in trust from the Percentage Interest in such Collections, an amount equal to (A) with respect to each Purchase Group, the aggregate amount of Yield, Used Fee, Unused Fee and other fees, costs, expenses and indemnity amounts accrued through, or payable on, such day for such Purchase Group, (B) with respect to each LC Bank to which Reimbursement Obligations are due and owing and each Purchase Group that has a Participation Advance outstanding, an amount equal to accrued and unpaid Yield on any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations owed to such LC Bank, (C) with respect to each LC Bank that has issued Letters of Credit, all fees, including the Letter of Credit Fronting Bank Fee, accrued and unpaid to such LC Bank, (D) with respect to the Administrative Agent, any accrued and unpaid Administrative Agent Fees, and (F) with respect to the Servicer, any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees;

(ii) with respect to any LC Bank to which Reimbursement Obligations are owed (whether or not Participation Advances with respect to such Reimbursement Obligations have been made), set aside the entire amount of such Reimbursement Obligations owed;

(iii) with respect to any Non-Extending Purchase Group on and after the applicable Non-Extension Date (so long as a Termination Event shall not have occurred), set aside its ratable share of Collections as described in Section 2.16 hereof;

(iv) if the Seller has provided timely notice of an optional reduction of the Aggregate Net Investment or a Mandatory Reduction Amount is due and unpaid, set aside from such Collections the Optional Reduction Amount and Mandatory Reduction Amount, as applicable, and any associated Break Funding Costs due and payable;

(v) apply all or a portion of the remainder of the Percentage Interest in such Collections, such that the Aggregate Net Investment after such receipt and Reinvestment Purchases is the same as before such receipt and Reinvestment Purchases; and

(vi) release any remaining Collections to the Seller;

and on each Settlement Date, Distribution Date, Reduction Date or other day on which due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, pay the amounts set aside above to the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents (on behalf of their Purchase Groups), the Purchasers or the LC Banks, as the case may be.

(b) On the Termination Date and each Business Day thereafter, all Collections received or deemed received shall be applied in the following order of priority (whether or not such funds are sufficient to pay in full all such amounts and pro rata within each level based on the amounts due at such level):

 

-36-


FIRST, to the Servicer (if other than the Originator) in payment of all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee and all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses owed to it, if any, in connection with the servicing, administering and collecting the Receivables;

SECOND, on a pro rata basis (a) to each Facility Agent, the accrued and unpaid Yield due on its Purchase Group’s Net Investment and (b) to any LC Bank, for further distribution to the Facility Agents who made, on behalf of their respective Purchasers, Participation Advances with respect thereto, accrued and unpaid Yield on any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations;

THIRD, on a pro rata basis, (a) to each Facility Agent, the accrued and unpaid Used Fees and Unused Fees due to its related Purchase Group, (b) to each LC Bank, all accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fronting Bank Fees due to it and (c) to the Administrative Agent, all accrued and unpaid Administrative Agent Fees due to the Administrative Agent;

FOURTH, to the LC Cash Collateral Account, the amount necessary to cause the amount therein to equal the Required LC Cash Collateral Amount;

FIFTH, to any LC Bank, in payment in full of any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations owed to it, for further distribution by such LC Bank to the Facility Agents who made, on behalf of their respective Purchasers, Participation Advances with respect thereto;

NINTH, to the Administrative Agent, in payment of expenses owed to it by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement; and

TENTH, to the Servicer (if the Originator), any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fee and out-of-pocket costs and expenses due to it.

(c) After the Aggregate Net Investment, Reimbursement Obligations, Participation Advances, Yield, fees and any other Aggregate Unpaids have been paid in full and, if required hereunder, the LC Cash Collateral Account has been funded to the Required LC Cash Collateral Amount, all additional Collections with respect to the Receivable Interest shall be paid to the Seller for its own account.

 

-37-


(d) For the purposes of this Section 2.08:

(i) if, on any day, there arises a Deemed Collection with respect to any Receivable, the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Receivable in the amount of such Deemed Collection;

(ii) except as otherwise required by applicable Law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates its payment for application to specific Receivables; and

(iii) if and to the extent any Purchaser or LC Bank shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor any amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by the Seller and, accordingly, such Purchaser or LC Bank, as applicable, shall have a claim against the Seller for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

(e) The funds deposited into the LC Cash Collateral Account pursuant to (i) Section 2.08, Section 2.09 or Section 2.12 may be applied as set forth in (i) Section 2.11(b) to satisfy the Seller’s Reimbursement Obligations or (ii) in Sections 2.12(a) or (c) to satisfy a Defaulting Purchaser’s obligations to fund its portion of Reimbursement Purchases and Participation Advances. If on any day the amount on deposit in LC Cash Collateral Account exceeds the Required LC Cash Collateral Amount, the Administrative Agent shall, on the second Business Day after the next Monthly Report Date, withdraw such excess funds on deposit in the LC Cash Collateral Account, and pay the same to the Seller.

(f) Notwithstanding that Reinvestment Purchases are only made on Business Days pursuant to Section 2.05 and that Collections are only allocated and applied by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 2.08 on Business Days, the Seller and the Servicer agree that at all times Collections held by the Servicer or the Seller or in any Lockbox, Lockbox Account or Depositary Account shall be deemed to be held in trust for the benefit of the Facility Agents (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC Banks) and the Seller (if held by the Servicer or in any Lockbox, Lockbox Account or Depositary Account), to the extent of their respective interests therein.

Section 2.09. Mandatory Reduction of Aggregate Exposure Amount. If, on any day, the Percentage Interest exceeds 100% (95% if a Downgrade Event exists and is continuing), the Servicer or the Seller shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents and shall specify the Mandatory Reduction Amount. On the second Business Day (first Business Day, if a Downgrade Event exists and is continuing) after the date of such notification, the Seller shall pay the Mandatory Reduction Amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such funds (i) first, to each LC Bank owed any Reimbursement Obligations(s) (for further distribution to each Facility Agent whose Purchasers funded

 

-38-


Participation Advances to such LC Bank), its pro rata share (based on such LC Banks’ Reimbursement Obligation(s) as a percentage of the aggregate amount of Reimbursement Obligations owed to LC Banks) of such Mandatory Reduction Amount (but in no event in excess of the Reimbursement Obligations(s) owed to each such LC Bank), (ii) second, to pay to each Facility Agent, its Purchase Group’s Purchase Group Percentage of any remaining Mandatory Reduction Amount to repay all or a portion of the related Purchase Group’s Net Investment, and (iii) to the LC Cash Collateral Account, any remaining Mandatory Reduction Amount. On any day on which a Mandatory Reduction Amount is due and payable, the Seller shall also be obligated to pay to each Purchaser any Break Funding Costs incurred by such Person in connection with the payment of such Mandatory Reduction Amount.

Section 2.10. Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each LC Bank, in reliance on the agreements of the Facility Agents set forth in Section 2.11, agrees to issue standby and documentary letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Seller on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to the Termination Date (or, in the case of an LC Bank in a Non-Extending Purchase Group, the applicable Non-Extension Date) in such form as may be approved from time to time by such LC Bank; provided that no LC Bank shall have any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such Issuance, (i) without the consent of the applicable LC Bank, the LC Obligations owed to such LC Bank at such time would exceed such LC Bank’s LC Bank Sublimit, (ii) the Percentage Interest would exceed 100% (95% if a Downgrade Event exists and is continuing), (iii) in the event that the Scheduled Termination Date shall have been extended pursuant to Section 2.16 with respect to some but not all of the Purchase Groups, the portion of the LC Obligations attributable to Letters of Credit with expiry dates after the next Non-Extension Date will exceed the portion of the Maximum Net Investment attributable to the Maximum Net Investment of the Purchase Groups that are not Non-Extending Purchase Groups or (iv) any Committed Purchaser is a Defaulting Purchaser, unless (x) arrangements with respect to such Defaulting Purchaser have been made which are reasonably satisfactory to such LC Bank to mitigate such LC Bank’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Purchaser (as to both existing Letters of Credit and any proposed new Issuance), (y) the Seller has fulfilled the requirements set forth in Section 2.12(a), or (z) such Defaulting Purchaser has assigned all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to Assignee(s) in accordance with Sections 11.02 and 11.08 hereof. Each Letter of Credit shall (A) be denominated in Dollars, (B) have a face amount of at least $1,000,000, (C) expire no later than the earlier of (1) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (2) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date (or, in the case of an LC Bank in a Non-Extending Purchase Group, the applicable Non-Extension Date), provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (2) above) and (D) provide for the payment of sight drafts or other written demands for payment no earlier than the next Business Day after being presented for honor thereunder (as long as presented by 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Business Day, and, if presented after 2:00 P.M., the second Business Day after being presented) in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein.

 

-39-


(b) The Seller may from time to time request that an LC Bank Issue or Modify a Letter of Credit, as the case may be, by delivering to such LC Bank, at its address for notices specified on Schedule I hereto (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by such LC Bank) and the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such LC Bank, and a Letter of Credit Request. Additionally, the Seller shall furnish to the applicable LC Bank such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such LC Bank may request. Upon receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, such LC Bank will also provide a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent and, following receipt, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Facility Agents thereof. Such LC Bank will process such Letter of Credit Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures. Unless such LC Bank has knowledge, or has received written notice from any Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Seller at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of the applicable Issuance or Modification, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 3.03 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such LC Bank shall promptly Issue or Modify the Letter of Credit, as the case may be, requested by such Letter of Credit Application and related documentation (but in no event shall such LC Bank be required to Issue or Modify any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of Credit Application therefor and all related documentation) by Issuing the original of such Letter of Credit (or requested Modification, if applicable) to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such LC Bank and the Seller. Such LC Bank shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit or any amendment thereto to the Seller promptly following the Issuance or Modification thereof. Such LC Bank shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Facility Agents, notice of the Issuance or Modification, as applicable, of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof), each increase or decrease in the amount of such Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof) and the termination of such Letter of Credit.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained herein, no LC Bank shall be under any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit if: (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such LC Bank from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such LC Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such LC Bank (x) shall prohibit, or request that such LC Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, (y) shall impose upon such LC Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such LC Bank is not otherwise entitled to be compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or (z) shall impose upon such LC Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such LC Bank in good faith deems material to it; provided that, in the cases of clauses (y) and (z), such LC Bank shall have provided written notice to the Seller of its refusal to issue any Letter of Credit and the specific reasons therefor and the Seller shall not have compensated such LC Bank for the imposition of such restriction, reserve or capital requirement or reimbursed such LC Bank for such loss, cost or expense, as applicable; (ii) the Issuance of such Letter of Credit would otherwise conflict with, or cause such LC Bank or any Purchase Group to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Law; or (iii) the Issuance of such Letter of Credit would

 

-40-


violate one or more policies of such LC Bank applicable to letters of credit generally. An LC Bank shall not be obligated to Modify any Letter of Credit if (A) such LC Bank would have no obligation at such time to Issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

(d) The Seller shall authorize and direct each LC Bank to name the Seller as the “Applicant” or “Account Party” of each Letter of Credit; provided, that any such Letter of Credit may indicate that it is issued “on behalf of Phillips 66 Company or an Affiliate of Phillips 66 Company”. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit Issued or otherwise outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of a Person other than the Seller, the Seller shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable LC Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit as provided in this Agreement.

(e) If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant LC Bank shall promptly notify the Seller and the Administrative Agent of the date and the amount thereof and whether such LC Bank has made or will make a payment thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Seller of its obligation to reimburse such LC Bank with respect to any drawing under a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Facility Agents thereof. The responsibility of such LC Bank to the Seller in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

(f) To the extent that any provision of any Letter of Credit Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 2.10, the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall apply.

(g) For purposes of determining the “Stated Amount” of a Letter of Credit at any time hereunder, such amount shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount (including any automatic increases provided by its terms) of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

(h) The Seller shall cause the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder and all Reimbursement Obligations under clause (i) of that definition to be secured at all times by the Receivable Interest, and shall on every Business Day make such further grant, assignment, transfer and conveyance to the Facility Agents, for the benefit of the related Purchasers and LC Banks, in the Receivables, Related Security and Collections, as is necessary (if any) to cause such Receivable Interest to be so maintained.

(i) All payments made by an LC Bank pursuant to any Letter of Credit shall be made from funds of such LC Bank, and not from the funds of any other Person.

 

-41-


Section 2.11. Letter of Credit Reimbursements; Participations and Payments. (a) In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the applicable LC Bank will promptly notify the Seller and the Administrative Agent of such request on the date such request is made, and the Administrative Agent shall, in turn, promptly advise the Facility Agents thereof. Upon its receipt of such notice, (i) the Seller will be deemed to have requested that a Purchase (each such Purchase, a “Reimbursement Purchase”) be made on the date of the required drawing in the amount paid by such LC Bank under such Letter of Credit in respect of such drawing on such date and (ii) the Administrative Agent will deliver promptly to the Facility Agents a Purchase Notice with respect to the Reimbursement Purchase. If the conditions precedent to a Reimbursement Purchase set forth in Section 3.03 are satisfied, a Reimbursement Purchase will be made by each Facility Agent (on behalf of its related Purchasers) by delivering its portion of such Reimbursement Purchase (or, in the case of a Defaulting Purchaser, by the Administrative Agent using funds in the LC Cash Collateral Account, if available, to fund such Defaulting Purchaser’s portion of the Reimbursement Purchase as provided in Section 2.12(a)) in such amount as determined in accordance with, and pursuant to, the terms set forth in Section 2.02 hereof, directly to the applicable LC Bank pursuant to the remittance instructions provided by the applicable LC Bank.

(b) If a Reimbursement Purchase cannot occur because the conditions precedent therefor are not met, then the Seller will have a Reimbursement Obligation to reimburse such LC Bank at or prior to 11:00 A.M., New York time on the date on which such draw is required to be paid, in an amount equal to the amount paid by such LC Bank under such Letter of Credit in respect of such drawing. The Seller shall use its own funds available therefor to satisfy its Reimbursement Obligation; provided that on and after the Termination Date, the Administrative Agent shall apply funds on deposit in the LC Cash Collateral Account to pay the applicable LC Bank the Reimbursement Obligation owed to it. If the Seller shall not have satisfied its Reimbursement Obligation, the applicable LC Bank shall promptly, notify the Administrative Agent, the Seller and the Facility Agents of such non-payment by the Seller of its Reimbursement Obligation and that it is requesting that each Facility Agent (on behalf of its related Purchaser(s)) fund a Participation Advance in an amount equal to its ratable share of such unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligation (or, in the case of a Defaulting Purchaser, by directing the Administrative Agent to apply funds in the LC Cash Collateral Account, if available, to fund such Defaulting Purchaser’s portion of such Participation Advance as provided in Section 2.12(a)) and pursuant to the remittance instructions provided by the applicable LC Bank. Any such notice given by an LC Bank may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing; provided, that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. Each Purchaser may make a Participation Advance by making available to the applicable LC Bank by 5:00 P.M., New York time on such Business Day, an amount in immediately available funds equal to its ratable share of such unreimbursed Reimbursement Obligation; provided, that, in no event shall any Facility Agent make a Participation Advance in the event that, after giving effect to the making of such Participation Advance, the related Purchase Group’s Exposure Amount would exceed such Purchase Group’s Maximum Net Investment. The requirement to make Participation Advances hereunder shall continue until the last to occur of any of the following events: (i) each LC Bank ceases to be obligated to Issue or cause to be Issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (ii) no Letter of Credit Issued hereunder remains

 

-42-


outstanding and uncancelled; and (iii) all Persons (other than the Seller or any Affiliate) have been fully reimbursed for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit. No Participation Advance shall reduce the then outstanding Reimbursement Obligations owed by the Seller to the applicable LC Bank. The Seller shall have an absolute obligation to reimburse such LC Bank, for its benefit and the benefit of each Purchaser that makes a Participation Advance to such LC Bank, in the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation, plus all Yield thereon. To the extent that (A) the Committed Purchaser is the LC Bank to which any Reimbursement Obligation is owed does not make its Participation Advance under this Section 2.11(b) or (B) any Committed Purchaser does not make such Participation Advance hereunder, the aggregate amount of such unfunded Participation Advances shall be deemed to be Participation Advances of such LC Bank until such time (if at all) that any such Defaulting Purchaser funds such Participation Advance to such LC Bank.

(c) If an LC Bank receives funds from or for the account of the Seller in payment of any Reimbursement Obligations with respect to which a Participation Advance has been made, such LC Bank will pay to each Facility Agent (for the benefit of its related Purchaser(s)) that has made such Participation Advance such Facility Agent’s ratable allocation of such funds (based on the outstanding Participation Advances of the Purchaser(s) in such Facility Agent’s Purchase Group), which shall also include all interest that has accrued with respect thereto received by such LC Bank; it being understood that such LC Bank shall retain a ratable amount of such funds that relate to the Participation Advances deemed made by such LC Bank’s Purchase Group. If an LC Bank is required at any time to return to the Seller or any other Person, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any insolvency proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Seller to such LC Bank pursuant to this Agreement in reimbursement of a payment made under any Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon and with respect to which a portion of such payment was paid by such LC Bank to the Facility Agents (on behalf of their respective Purchasers) pursuant to this Section, each Purchaser that has received a portion of such payment shall, on demand of such LC Bank, forthwith return to such LC Bank its ratable amount (based on the amount of such payment received by such Facility Agent) of any amounts so returned by such LC Bank.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, prior to the date on which a drawing occurs on any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”), no Yield shall accrue or be payable on the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit, but fees with respect thereto shall be payable in accordance with the Fee Letter and each LC Bank Fee Letter. Following the Drawing Date of any Letter of Credit (and until a Reimbursement Purchase or payment or satisfaction in full of the Reimbursement Obligation arising as a result of such drawing), Yield shall accrue and be payable on the outstanding unpaid amount of such Reimbursement Obligation for each day from and including the date such Reimbursement Obligation arose to but excluding the date that Seller reimburses such Reimbursement Obligation in full (or such time that Reimbursement Purchases are made to satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation in full) at the applicable Yield. Interest on each Participation Advance shall accrue and be payable thereon for each day from and including the date such Participation Advance is made to but excluding the date that the Seller reimburses its Reimbursement Obligation for which such Participation Advance relates in full (or such time that Reimbursement Purchases are made to satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation in full) at the applicable Yield.

 

-43-


(e) The Seller’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Seller may have or have had against any LC Bank, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Seller also agrees with each LC Bank that no LC Bank shall be responsible for, and the Seller’s Reimbursement Obligations shall not be affected by, among other things, (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Transaction Document or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any LC Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.11(e), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Seller’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents, the Purchasers nor the LC Banks, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any LC Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the relevant LC Bank from liability to the Seller to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Seller to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Seller that are caused by such LC Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an LC Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such LC Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an LC Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(f) If any Letter of Credit remains outstanding and undrawn (either in full or in part) on the Termination Date, effective as of such date, the Seller shall have a Reimbursement Obligation with respect to all such Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of outstanding and undrawn Letters of Credit on such day, together with the associated Fee Collateral Amount, and the Seller agrees to satisfy such Reimbursement Obligation by depositing such amount into the LC Cash Collateral Account.

Section 2.12. Defaulting Purchasers. (a) If any Committed Purchaser becomes a Defaulting Purchaser at any time when there are undrawn Letters of Credit outstanding, then the Seller shall (i) within three (3) Business Days

 

-44-


following notice by any LC Bank, cash collateralize for the benefit of the LC Banks a portion of the amount of the then outstanding Letters of Credit equal to such Defaulting Purchaser’s ratable share of such undrawn Stated Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit by depositing such amount into the LC Cash Collateral Account, and (ii) maintain funds in the LC Cash Collateral Account to cash collateralize such Defaulting Purchaser’s ratable share of undrawn Stated Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit (including increased amounts due to newly-issued Letters of Credit and reductions due to terminations of Letters of Credit). The Administrative Agent shall (1) apply funds deposited into the LC Cash Collateral Account pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) to satisfy a Defaulting Purchaser’s obligation to fund it portion of a Reimbursement Purchase pursuant to Section 2.11(a) or Participation Advance pursuant to Section 2.11(b) hereof and (2) transfer funds in the LC Cash Collateral Account in excess of the Required LC Cash Collateral Amount to the Seller as provided in Section 2.08(e) hereof.

(b) If the Seller has satisfied its obligations under Section 2.12(a), the Seller shall not be required to pay such Defaulting Purchaser the portion of the Used Fee or Unused Fee pursuant to the Fee Letter with respect to the amount of the undrawn Letters of Credit that is so cash collateralized by the Seller.

(c) Except for the portion of any fees not otherwise payable to such Defaulting Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.12(b), no amount payable by the Seller for the account of a Defaulting Purchaser under this Agreement (whether on account of Net Investment, Yield, indemnity payments or other amounts) shall be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Purchaser (or its Facility Agent), but instead shall be deposited to the LC Cash Collateral Account until the amount therein is equal to the amount of such Defaulting Purchaser’s ratable share of the Stated Amount of the undrawn Letters of Credit that is not cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.12(a), and to the extent of any remaining amounts, to pay to such Defaulting Purchaser amounts owed to it.

Section 2.13. Payments and Computations, Etc. All per annum fees payable under this Agreement shall be calculated for the actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Seller or the Servicer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof in immediately available funds no later than the time specified in the applicable provision of this Agreement, or, if not so specified, by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the day when due. All such amounts shall be paid or deposited to the applicable party or account, as applicable, at the address listed on Schedule I hereto (or in the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement); provided, that, if such amounts are payable to any Purchasers or LC Banks, they shall be paid or deposited in the applicable Facility Agent’s account indicated on Schedule I hereto (or in the applicable Assignment and Assumption Agreement), until otherwise notified by such party. The Seller shall, to the extent permitted by Law, pay interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder at a rate equal to the Default Rate. All computations of Yield 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 other than computations of interest calculated by reference to the Alternate Base Rate which shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable.

 

-45-


Section 2.14. Increased Costs. The Seller will indemnify each Purchaser (and any of its Support Providers and LC Bank if any Regulatory Change (i) subjects such Person (each an “Affected Person”) to any charge on or with respect to such Affected Person’s obligations in connection with the Facility, or on or with respect to the Receivables, or subjects any such Affected Person to Tax on its Exposure Amount or its obligation to fund a portion of the Aggregate Exposure Amount (except for Taxes subject to indemnification and Excluded Taxes), (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or liabilities of any Affected Person, or credit extended by any Affected Person in connection with the Facility or (iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Affected Person of performing its obligations in connection with the Facility, or to reduce the rate of return on any Affected Person’s capital as a consequence of its obligations in connection with the Facility, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Affected Person in connection with this Facility, or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it. The Seller will promptly pay to the Facility Agent for the Affected Person such indemnity amount as shall be specified to the Seller in a certificate of the Affected Person (or its Facility Agent, on its behalf) setting forth the calculations of such amount, together with the basis therefor. Any such certificate submitted by or on behalf of the Affected Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.15. Optional Reduction of Maximum Net Investment; Optional Reduction of Aggregate Net Investment. (a) The Seller may at any time and from time to time reduce in whole or in part the Maximum Net Investment (but not below the Aggregate Exposure Amount) by giving the Facility Agents written notice thereof at least five Business Days before such reduction is to take place; provided, however, that any partial reduction shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or any higher multiple of $1,000,000. Any reduction in the Maximum Net Investment shall be allocated ratably among the Purchase Groups. The Seller shall pay each Facility Agent any accrued and unpaid Unused Fee on the date of such reduction with respect to the reduction amount.

(b) The Seller may reduce, in whole or in part, the Aggregate Net Investment (the amount of such reduction, the “Optional Reduction Amount”) by giving the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents written notice thereof at least five (5) business days before such optional reduction. Each such written notice shall specify the requested Optional Reduction Amount and the requested optional reduction date (each, an “Optional Reduction Date”). If the Seller has delivered such notice, then on the requested Optional Reduction Date, the Servicer shall apply Collections that would have been used for Reinvestment Purchases to pay the Facility Agents (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers) their ratable shares of the reduction amount, together with any applicable Break Funding Costs. Each partial reduction shall be in minimum increments of $5,000,000 or any higher multiple of $1,000,000.

Section 2.16. Procedures for Extension of Scheduled Termination Date; Non-Extending Purchase Groups. (a) So long as no Termination Event or Potential

 

-46-


Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, no more than 90 and no less than 45 days prior to the then- current Scheduled Termination Date, the Seller may request that each Facility Agent consent to the extension of the Scheduled Termination Date for an additional period as provided in this Section 2.16, which decision shall be made by each Facility Agent (after consultation with its Purchase Group) in its sole discretion. Each Facility Agent shall notify the Seller of its willingness or its determination not to consent to such extension of the Scheduled Termination Date as soon as practical after receiving such notice, and in any event by the thirtieth day preceding the then current Scheduled Termination Date (the “Response Date”). Any Facility Agent which notifies the Seller of its Purchase Group’s determination not to extend or which does not expressly notify the Seller that it is willing to extend prior to the Response Date shall be deemed to have a “Non-Extending Purchase Group” after the then current Scheduled Termination Date (each such date, a “Non-Extension Date”). If any Facility Agents have agreed by the Response Date to the extension of the Scheduled Termination Date, the Scheduled Termination Date will be extended as provided in the preceding sentence for such Facility Agents and their Purchase Groups, and on the Non-Extension Date (prior to extension), (i) the Maximum Net Investment (and the LC Sub-Facility) will be reduced by the amount of the Non-Extending Purchase Group’s Purchase Group Maximum Net Investment and (ii) the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the Non-Extending Purchase Group, a ratable percentage of Collections (based on the Exposure Amount of such Non-Extending Purchase Group as a percentage of the Aggregate Exposure Amount). If the amount so set aside on such Non-Extension Date is not adequate to repay the Non-Extending Purchase Group’s Net Investment, together with Yield thereon and other Aggregate Unpaids due to it, then on each Business Day after the Non-Extension Date, unless a Termination Event shall have occurred, the Servicer shall allocate to the Non-Extending Purchase Group its ratable portion of Collections (up to such Net Investment, Yield and other amounts) and on each Distribution Date after the Non-Extension Date, shall pay to the Facility Agent for the Non-Extending Purchase Group the Non-Extending Purchase Group’s Net Investment, Yield thereon and other Aggregate Unpaids due them until such amounts have been paid in full. The Facility Agent for a Non-Extending Purchase Group shall not be obligated to make any Purchases or Issue or Modify Letters of Credit on and after its Non-Extension Date.

Section 2.17. Facility Termination. Subject to other provisions of this Agreement requiring earlier termination, the Facility Agents’ obligations (on behalf of their respective Purchasers) to make Purchases hereunder and LC Banks’ obligations to Issue or Modify (and honor draws under) the Letters of Credit hereunder shall terminate at Facility Termination.

To the extent Collections are transferred to or otherwise received by the Servicer, the Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to receive and hold in trust such Collections for the Facility Agents (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC and LC Banks) and Seller (to the extent of their respective interests) to be allocated and distributed as provided in this Agreement.

(b) Subject to the rights retained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.09 hereof, each of the Seller, the Purchasers, the LC Banks, the Facility Agents and the Administrative Agent hereby appoint the Servicer to enforce its respective rights and interests in and to the Receivable Interest. If any Person succeeds the initial Servicer as a Servicer, the replaced Servicer shall promptly deliver to such successor Servicer and the replaced Servicer shall hold in trust for the Administrative Agent, the Purchasers, the LC Banks, the Facility Agents and the Seller, in accordance with their respective interests, all documents instruments and records (including computer tapes or disks) that are reasonably necessary to service or collect the Receivables.

-52-


expense, take all actions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent necessary to perfect or protect the Facility Agents’ (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC Banks) right, title and interest in the Receivable Interest, together with Related Security and all Collections with respect thereto, against all Persons whomsoever or to enable the Facility Agents or the Administrative Agent to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder.

The Servicer shall at its own expense prepare and maintain such Records in electronically-readable form in such format as the Servicer customarily maintains its records; provided, however, that upon a Complete Servicing Transfer with respect to the Servicer, the replaced Servicer shall within 10 Business Days of such Complete Servicing Transfer prepare such Records in such format as may be required to permit or facilitate the transfer of such Records to the successor Servicer.

Section 4.05. Information. The Servicer will, or will cause the Originator to furnish to the Administrative Agent such information with respect to the Receivables (including but not limited to the Originator’s standards and procedures for selling goods or services on credit) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in consultation with the Facility Agents. The Servicer will also furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Facility Agent all material modifications, adjustments or supplements to the Credit and Collection Policy; provided, however, the Servicer shall not, without each Facility Agent’s prior written consent, alter or consent to the alteration of the Credit and Collection Policy as in effect from time to time unless such alteration would not impair the collectability of any Receivables in any material respect or would not otherwise be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

-53-


Section 4.06. Audits; Agreed-Upon Procedures. (a) Each of the Seller and the Servicer will, from time to time during regular business hours as requested by the Administrative Agent or any Facility Agent upon reasonable notice and subject to any applicable restrictions or limitations on access to any facility or information that is classified or restricted by contract or by law, regulation or governmental guidelines, and at the sole cost of such Seller Party, permit the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents or their respective agents or representatives (i) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from all Records in the possession or under the control of such Person relating to the Receivables and the Related Security, including, without limitation, the related Contracts, and (ii) to visit the offices and properties of such Person for the purpose of examining such materials described in clause (i) above, and to discuss matters relating to such Person’s financial condition or the Receivables and the Related Security or any Person’s performance under any of the Transaction Documents or any Person’s performance under the Contracts and, in each case, with any of the officers or employees of Seller or Servicer having knowledge of such matters; provided, that as long as no Termination Event or Downgrade Event shall have occurred, (A) the Seller and the Servicer shall only be responsible for the cost of one (1) such visit during any calendar year and (B) the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents hereby agree to coordinate their due diligence visits.

(b) At the Administrative Agent’s request, the Servicer shall cause FTI Consulting or another firm selected by the Administrative Agent, to furnish an annual report to the Facility Agents pursuant to procedures agreed upon by the Seller, the Servicer and the Facility Agents; provided, that the Administrative Agent may, and shall if so directed by the Required Facility Agents, request that additional procedures be performed and reports be provided if there shall have occurred a Termination Event or a Potential Termination Event. Each such report shall be paid for by the Servicer.

Section 4.07. No Impairment. The Servicer will not take any action or cause any action to be taken to impair the rights of any Facility Agents (for the benefit of the Purchasers and LC Banks) in the Receivable Interest.

Section 4.08. Administration and Collections.

(a) General. Until a Complete Servicing Transfer shall have occurred, the Servicer will be responsible for the administration, servicing and collection of the Receivables.

-54-


(c) Enforcement Proceedings. In the event of a default under any Receivable when a Termination Event does not exist, the Servicer shall, at the Seller’s sole expense, to the full extent permitted by Law, have the power and authority, on behalf of the Seller and each Facility Agent (for the benefit of its related Purchasers and LC Banks), to take or cause to be taken any action in respect of any such Receivable as the Servicer may deem advisable; provided, however, that the Servicer shall take no enforcement action (judicial or otherwise) with respect to such Receivable except in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy or otherwise with the written consent of the Facility Agents. The Servicer will apply or will cause to be applied at all times when a Termination Event does not exist the same standards and follow the same procedures with respect to deciding to commence, and in prosecuting, litigation on such Receivable as is applied and followed with respect to like accounts serviced by it that are not owned by the Facility Agents’ (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC Banks). In no event shall the Servicer or the Seller, as the case may be, be entitled to make or authorize any Person to make any Facility Agent, Purchaser or LC Bank a party to any litigation without such Facility Agent’s, Purchaser’s or LC Bank’s, as the case may be, express prior written consent.

(d) Facility Agents’ Rights to Enforce Receivables. At any time after the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Facility Agents may, but shall have no obligation to, take any action or commence any proceeding to realize upon any Receivable, including, but not limited to, delivery to an Obligor of notice of the Facility Agents’ (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC Banks) interest in the Receivables, any such action or commencement of proceeding to be at the sole expense of the Seller. At such time as the Servicer has any obligation to pursue the collection of Receivables and the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents or any Purchaser or LC Bank possesses any documents necessary therefor, the Administrative Agent or such Facility Agent, Purchaser or LC Bank, as the case may be, agrees to furnish such documents to the Servicer, to the extent and for the period necessary for the Servicer to comply with its obligations hereunder.

Section 4.09. Complete Servicing Transfer.

(a) General. If at any time a Termination Event shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Facility Agents shall, by notice in writing to the Seller and the Servicer terminate the Servicer’s capacity as Servicer in respect of the Receivables (such termination referred to herein as a “Complete Servicing Transfer”). After a Complete Servicing Transfer, the Administrative Agent (or its designee approved by the Facility Agents) may itself administer, service and collect the Receivables, and in such event, may retain the Servicing Fee for its own account, in any manner it sees fit, including, without limitation, by compromise, extension or settlement of such Receivables. Alternatively, the Facility Agents may engage affiliated or unaffiliated contractors to perform all or any part of the administration, servicing and collection of the Receivables and require the Seller to pay to such contractors all or a portion of the Servicing Fee in consideration thereof.

 

-55-


(b) Transition. The Servicer, promptly but in no event later than ten Business Days after receiving a notice pursuant to Section 4.09(a) hereof, shall, at the Seller’s sole expense, (x) deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents or their designated agents (i) a schedule of the Receivables serviced by the Servicer in which the Facility Agents (for the benefit of their respective Purchasers and LC Banks) have a Receivable Interest indicating as to each such Receivable information as to the related Obligor, the Outstanding Balance as of such date of such Receivable and the location of the evidences of such Receivable, together with such other information as the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents may reasonably request and (ii) all evidence of such Receivables and such other Records related thereto (including, without limitation, true copies of any computer tapes and data in computer memories), (y) permit the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents access to the Servicer’s premises, equipment and files and other Records relating to the Receivables and (z) to the extent not prohibited by contract or applicable Law, take all actions as are necessary to transfer or cause to be transferred to the Administrative Agent or its designated agent any software that relates to, and is necessary for the servicing of, such Receivables, in each case as the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents may reasonably deem necessary to enable them to protect and enforce their rights and the rights of the Purchasers and LC Banks in the Receivable Interest.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent’s liability shall extend to all amounts which constitute part of the Obligations and would be owed by Phillips 66 Co. to the Seller or any Beneficiary under any Transaction Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving Phillips 66 Co. as debtor. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of the Parent under this Parent Undertaking do not include losses in respect to Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor.

Section 5.02. Guaranty Absolute. The Parent guarantees that the Obligations will be performed or paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the applicable Transaction Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent or any Beneficiary with respect thereto. The obligations of the Parent under this Parent Undertaking are independent of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Parent to enforce this Parent Undertaking, irrespective of whether any action is brought against Phillips 66 Co. or whether Phillips 66 Co. is joined in any such action or actions.

-59-


(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Transaction Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Obligations resulting from additional Purchases or Issuances/Modifications of Letters of Credit or otherwise;

(c) any failure or omission to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or any collateral securing the Obligations or any part thereof;

(g) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Provider may have at any time against Phillips 66 Co. in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction;

(h) any assignment or transfer of the Obligations or any part thereof permitted under the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(i) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Phillips 66 Co. or any of its Subsidiaries; or

(j) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Phillips 66 Co. or a guarantor.

Section 5.03. Waiver. (a) The Parent hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations and this Parent Undertaking and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against Phillips 66 Co. or any other Person or entity or any collateral.

(b) The Parent hereby waives any right to revoke this Parent Undertaking, and acknowledges that this Parent Undertaking is continuing in nature and applies to all Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

(c) The Parent acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Transaction Documents and that the waivers set forth in this Section 5.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 5.04. Subrogation. The Parent will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Parent Undertaking, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until all the Obligations and other amounts payable under this Parent Undertaking shall have been paid in full and the Facility Termination shall have occurred. If any amount shall be paid to the Parent on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Parent Undertaking and (y) the date after the Termination Date that all Aggregate Unpaids are paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Transaction Document or to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for any Obligations thereafter existing. If (i) the Parent shall make payment to the Beneficiaries of all or any part of the Obligations, (ii) all the Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Parent Undertaking shall be paid in full and (iii) the date after the Termination Date that all Aggregate Unpaids are paid in full shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents on behalf of their respective Beneficiaries will, at the Parent’s request, execute and deliver to the Parent appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Parent of an interest in the Obligations resulting from such payment by the Parent.

No course of dealing and no delay or failure of any Purchaser, any LC Bank, any Facility Agent or the Administrative Agent in exercising any right, power or privilege under the Transaction Documents shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Facility Agents, Purchasers and the LC Banks under the Transaction Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent, any Facility Agent, any Purchaser or any LC Bank would otherwise have.

Section 11.04. No Discharge. The respective obligations of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer and the Parent under the Transaction Documents shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by (a) any exercise or nonexercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of the Transaction Documents or applicable Law, including, without limitation, any failure to set-off or release in whole or in part by the Administrative Agent, any Facility Agent, any Purchaser or any LC Bank of any balance of any deposit account or credit on its books in favor of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer or the Parent, as the case may be, or any waiver, consent, extension,

 

-92-


indulgence or other action or inaction in respect of any thereof, or (b) any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which could operate as a discharge of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer or the Parent as a matter of Law.

Section 11.05. Set-Off. In case a Termination Event shall occur and be continuing, each Purchaser and LC Bank shall each have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, without notice to the Seller, the Originator, or the Servicer or the Parent, as the case may be, to set-off against and to appropriate and apply to any amount owing by the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer or the Parent hereunder which has become due and payable, any debt owing to, and any other funds held in any manner for the account of, such Person by a Purchaser or an LC Bank or by any holder of any assignment, including, without limitation, all funds in all deposit accounts (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally credited, or otherwise), now or hereafter maintained by such Person with a Purchaser or an LC Bank or a Collateral Agent (it being understood that no such set-off with respect to either the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer or the Parent shall be applied to any amounts owing by any other Person hereunder). Such right shall exist whether or not such debt owing to, or funds held for the account of, the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer or the Parent is or are matured other than by operation of this Section 11.05 and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty or any other security, right or remedy available to any Purchaser or LC Bank. Each Facility Agent agrees that if its Purchase Group shall, by reason of any of its related Purchasers and LC Banks exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a portion of the Aggregate Net Investment or Participation Advance which exceeds such Purchase Group’s Percentage of the Aggregate Exposure Amount, such Facility Agent shall, on behalf of its Purchase Group, purchase participations (and each Purchaser and LC Bank in such Facility Agent’s Purchase Group shall immediately reimburse the Facility Agent based on its interests in such Aggregate Exposure Amount) in the portion of the Aggregate Exposure Amount funded by each other Purchase Group, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all reductions in the Aggregate Exposure Amount shall be shared by the Purchase Groups ratably in accordance with their respective Purchase Group Percentages. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition or restriction of any Purchaser’s or LC Bank’s or any holder’s rights of set-off or other rights under applicable Law.

Section 11.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that the Seller, the Parent or any Obligor makes a payment to a Purchaser or an LC Bank, or a Purchaser or LC Bank exercises its rights of set-off, and such payment or set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by, or is required to be refunded, rescinded, returned, repaid or otherwise restored to the Seller, the Parent, such Obligor, a trustee, a receiver or any other Person under any Law, including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, any state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall, to the extent of any such restoration, be reinstated, revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred. The provisions of this Section 11.06 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

-93-


Section 11.07. Tax Forms. (a) Each Purchaser and each LC Bank agrees to provide the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agent for such Purchaser and LC Bank with (A) (x) two appropriately executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form, on the date hereof (or, if later, on the date on which it becomes a Purchaser or LC Bank under this Agreement) certifying that such Purchaser or LC Bank is exempt from U.S. backup withholding or (y) two appropriate executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or alternatively, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN), or any successor forms, (i) on the date hereof (or, if later, the date on which it becomes an Purchaser or LC Bank under this Agreement), and (ii) upon the occurrence of any event that would require the amendment or resubmission of any such Form previously provided hereunder and (B) any other forms, certificates or information in connection therewith requested by the Seller, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent or the Facility Agent for such Purchaser or LC Bank.

(b) If a payment made to a Purchaser under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Purchaser were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Seller or Servicer such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Seller, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Seller, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Purchaser has complied with such Purchaser’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes of this clause (b), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Section 11.08. Replacement of Purchase Groups. If (i) any Conduit Purchaser’s Commercial Paper ceases to have a short-term debt rating of “A-1” or better by S&P, “P-1” or better by Moody’s and “F-1” or better from Fitch Ratings (but only if such Conduit Purchaser’s Commercial Paper is then rated by such Rating Agency) or (ii) any Purchase Group includes a Defaulting Purchaser, as long as no Potential Termination Event or Termination Event then exists (or would occur after giving effect to any termination of a Purchase Group), upon notice to the related Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent, the Seller shall have the right to terminate the interests, rights and obligations of such Purchaser and its Purchase Group or require each Purchaser in such Facility Agent’s Purchase Group to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.02 hereof), all of its respective interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations; provided, that each member of such terminated or assigning Purchase Group shall have received payment of an amount equal to all outstanding Net Investment, Participation Advances, Yield in respect thereof, accrued and unpaid fees and all other Aggregate Unpaids payable to it hereunder, from the Seller or the assignee, as the case may be; and provided further, that (i) if the Purchase Group proposed to be terminated without replacement includes an LC Bank whose Letters of Credit would remain outstanding after such termination, such termination will be permissible only if the

 

-94-


Aggregate Exposure Amount would not exceed the Maximum Net Investment, in each case, after giving effect to the termination of such Purchase Group and the associated repayments to it and reduction of its Purchase Group Maximum Net Investment and the Maximum Net Investment and (ii) if such terminated or assigning Purchase Group includes an LC Bank whose Letters of Credit will remain outstanding after such termination or assignment, as applicable, such LC Bank (a) will remain a party hereto and shall continue to have the rights and obligations of an LC Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination or assignment, other than the right to receive the Used Fee or the Unused Fee, and (b) will have no LC Bank Sublimit and no obligation to issue additional Letters of Credit. The Seller agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Letters of Credit issued by a LC Bank which is a member of a terminated or assigning Purchase Group to be terminated and replaced.

Section 11.09. No Petition. Each party hereto agrees, for the benefit of the holders of the privately or publicly placed indebtedness of borrowed money of any Conduit Purchaser not, prior to the date which is one (1) year and one (1) day after the payment in full of all such indebtedness, to acquiesce, petition or otherwise, directly or indirectly, invoke, or cause such Conduit Purchaser to invoke, the process of any Official Body for the purpose of (a) commencing or sustaining a case against such Conduit Purchaser under any federal or state bankruptcy insolvency or similar law (including the Federal Bankruptcy Code), (b) appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official for such Conduit Purchaser or any substantial part of the property of such Person, or (c) ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of such Conduit Purchaser.

Section 11.10. No Recourse. The obligations of each Conduit Purchaser, under this Agreement shall be payable solely out of the funds of such Conduit Purchaser available for such purpose and shall be solely the corporate or limited liability company obligations of such Conduit Purchaser. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing by a Conduit Purchaser in respect of this Agreement or for the payment of any fee hereunder or for any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this Agreement against any Affected Party, any Facility Agent, or the Administrative Agent, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, or any stockholder, employee, officer, director, incorporator or beneficial owner of any of the foregoing.

Section 11.11 Holidays. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement, if any payment due hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall instead be due on the next Business Day.

Section 11.12. Records. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement to the contrary, all amounts calculated or due hereunder shall be determined from the records of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Facility Agent, which determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 11.13. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate on the date of Facility Termination; provided, however, that (i) the indemnification and payment provisions set forth in Sections 2.14, 4.12 and 11.06 and Article X hereof and (ii) the agreement set forth in Section 11.09 hereof shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.14. Notices. (a) All notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications (collectively “notices”) under the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing (including telexed, facsimile or electronic communication) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereunder and shall be sent by first-class mail, first-class express mail, electronic mail or courier, or by telex or facsimile, in all cases with charges prepaid. All notices shall be sent to the applicable party at the notice addresses appearing on the signature page hereof (in the case of the Seller, Phillips 66 Co., the Parent and the Administrative Agent) or on Schedule I hereto (in the case of the Facility Agents, the Purchasers and the LC Banks) or in accordance with the last unrevoked written direction from such party to the other parties hereto.

(b) All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. Notices sent by e-mail shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient.

Section 11.15. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.

Section 11.16. Prior Understandings. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements, whether written or oral.

Section 11.17. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each party hereto hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of adjudicating any claim or controversy arising in connection with any of the Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, and for such purpose, to the extent they may lawfully do so, waive any objection which each may now or hereafter have to such jurisdiction or to venue therein and any claim of inconvenient forum with respect thereto.

Section 11.18. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 11.19. Confidentiality. Phillips 66 Co., the Seller and the Parent agree to keep the information contained in the Transaction Documents that relates to Yield, fees and other pricing terms strictly confidential. Each Purchaser, each LC Bank, each Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent shall keep all non-public information obtained pursuant to the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or effected in connection herewith or therewith confidential and will not disclose such information to outside parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party hereto may make disclosure (i) if it is obligated to do so pursuant to a request or order under any Law or pursuant to a subpoena or other legal process; (ii) if it is requested to do so by any regulatory authority; (iii) in the case of the Facility Agents, the Purchasers and the LC Banks, to bank examiners, and to potential assignees and participants; (iv) to its Affiliates, to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, agents, auditors, counsel and other advisors; (v) in connection with any litigation or dispute or the exercise of any remedies under the Transaction Documents; or (vi) to any rating agency, subject to, in the case of each of clause (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi), reasonable efforts to cause the recipient of such proprietary information to keep it confidential.

Section 11.20. USA Patriot Act. Each Committed Purchaser that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer and the Parent that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer and the Parent, which information includes the name and address of each of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer and the Parent and other information that will allow such Committed Purchaser to identify each of the Seller, the Originator, the Servicer and the Parent in accordance with the Act.

Section 11.21. Additional Branches. At such time as Originator adds a new branch and the Seller acquires Receivables generated by that new branch, as long as that new branch is in a line of business which Originator has on the Closing Date, the Required Facility Agents will promptly determine, after receipt from the Seller and Originator of appropriate data and conducting of any necessary due diligence, whether such new branch is an Eligible Branch or an Ineligible Branch; provided, however, that a new branch in the refined products business will automatically be listed as an Eligible Branch if, at the time the status of such branch is first determined by the Required Facility Agents, the Receivables generated by that new branch are less than 2.5% of the Receivables generated by Originator’s other Eligible Branches. Schedule IV to this Agreement will be automatically updated to reflect the addition of any new branch and its status. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) until the determination of the status of a new branch, such branch shall be deemed to be an Ineligible Branch and (ii) any new branch which is in a line of business which Originator does not have on the Closing Date shall not be an Eligible Branch.
