(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, Seller may, at its option, from time to time during the period from the date hereof to but not including the Facility Termination Date, sell and assign Purchaser Interests to the Agent, for the benefit of Fifth Third, and simultaneously to the Agent for the benefit of one or more of the Purchasers in Jupiter’s Purchaser Group, whereupon from time to time (i) Fifth Third shall instruct the Agent to purchase on Fifth Third’s behalf, and (ii) Jupiter may, at its option, instruct the Agent to purchase on Jupiter’s behalf, or if Jupiter shall decline to purchase, the Agent shall purchase, on behalf of the Financial Institutions, Purchaser Interests;provided, however,that (A) the Purchase Prices for the Purchaser Interests sold on any given Business Day shall be ratable in accordance with each Purchaser Group’s respective Percentage, and (B) in no event shall the aggregate Capital outstanding hereunder from either Purchaser Group exceed the lesser of (1) such Group’s Group Purchase Limit and (2) the Commitment Availability for such Purchaser Group. Seller hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective Percentages, and the Agent hereby acquires, all of Seller’s now owned and existing and hereafter arising or acquired right, title and interest in and to the Purchaser Interests.

Section 1.2Increases. Seller shall provide the Agent with at least one (1) Business Day’s prior notice in a form set forth as Exhibit II hereto of each Incremental Purchase (a“Purchase Notice”), and the Agent will promptly forward a copy of each such Purchase Notice to the Purchasers. Each Purchase Notice shall be subject to Section 6.2 hereof and, except as set forth below, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested Purchase Price (which shall not be less than $1,000,000) and date of purchase and, in the case of an Incremental Purchase to be funded by a through the purchase of a Liquidity Interest, the requested Discount Rate and Tranche Period.

Section 1.3Decreases. Seller shall provide the Agent (who will promptly forward a copy of each such notice to the Purchasers) prior written notice (a“Reduction Notice”) in conformity with the Required Notice Period of any proposed reduction of Aggregate Capital from Asset Interest Collections. Such Reduction Notice shall designate (i) the date (the“Proposed Reduction Date”) upon which any such reduction of Aggregate Capital shall occur (which date shall give effect to the applicable Required Notice Period), (ii) the amount of Aggregate Capital to be reduced (the“Aggregate Reduction”) which shall be applied ratably to the Purchaser Interests of each Purchaser in accordance with the amount of Capital (if any) owing to such Purchaser in each case divided by the Aggregate Capital at such time, and (iii) each Purchaser’s portion of such Aggregate Reduction. Only one (1) Reduction Notice shall be outstanding at any time.

Section 1.4Payment Requirements. All amounts to be paid or deposited by any Seller Party pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the day when due in immediately available funds, and if not received before 12:00 noon (Chicago time) shall be deemed to be received on the next succeeding Business Day.

ARTICLE II.
PAYMENTS AND ASSET INTEREST COLLECTIONS

Section 2.1Payments. Notwithstanding any limitation on recourse contained in this Agreement, Seller shall immediately pay to each Purchaser Group when due on a full recourse basis: (i) such fees as are set forth in the Fee Letters (which fees, in the case of the Jupiter Group, shall be sufficient to pay all fees owing to the Financial Institutions), (ii) all CP Costs, (iii) all amounts payable as Yield, (iv) all amounts payable as Deemed Collections (which shall be immediately due and payable by Seller and applied to reduce outstanding Aggregate Capital hereunder in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof), (v) all amounts required

pursuant to Section 2.6, (vi) all amounts payable pursuant to Article X, if any, (vii) all Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Pool Receivables, (viii) all Broken Funding Costs, and (ix) all Default Fees (collectively, the“Recourse Obligations”). If Seller fails to pay any of the Recourse Obligations when due, Seller agrees to pay, on demand, the Default Fee in respect thereof until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Agreement or any Fee Letter shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amounts hereunder in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. If at any time Seller receives any Asset Interest Collections or is deemed to receive any Asset Interest Collections, Seller shall immediately pay such Asset Interest Collections or Deemed Collections to the Servicer for application in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and, at all times prior to such payment, such Asset Interest Collections or Deemed Collections shall be held in trust by Seller for the exclusive benefit of the Purchasers and the Agent.

Section 2.2Asset Interest Collections Prior to Amortization. Prior to the Amortization Date, any Asset Interest Collections and Deemed Collections received by the Servicer and all Asset Interest Collections received by the Servicer shall be set aside and held in trust by the Servicer for the payment of any accrued and unpaid Aggregate Unpaids or for a Reinvestment as provided in this Section 2.2. If at any time any Asset Interest Collections are received by the Servicer prior to the Amortization Date, (a) the Servicer shall set aside the Termination Percentage (hereinafter defined) of Asset Interest Collections evidenced by the Purchaser Interests of each Terminating Financial Institution and (b) Seller hereby requests and the applicable Purchasers (other than any Terminating Financial Institutions) hereby agree to make, simultaneously with such receipt, a reinvestment (each, a“Reinvestment”) with that portion of the balance of each and every Asset Interest Collection received by the Servicer that is part of any Purchaser Interest (other than any Purchaser Interests of Terminating Financial Institutions), such that after giving effect to such Reinvestment, the amount of Capital of such Purchaser Interest immediately after such receipt and corresponding Reinvestment shall be equal to the amount of Capital immediately prior to such receipt. On each Settlement Date prior to the occurrence of the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall remit to the Agent’s account for the ratable benefit of the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective Percentages, the amounts set aside during the preceding Settlement Period that have not been subject to a Reinvestment and apply such amounts (if not previously paid in accordance with Section 2.1)first,to reduce unpaid CP Costs, Yield and other Recourse Obligations, ratably between the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective amounts of such Recourse Obligations, andsecond,to reduce the Capital of all Purchaser Interests of Terminating Financial Institutions, applied ratably to each Terminating Financial Institution according to its respective Termination Percentage. If such Capital, CP Costs, Yield and other Recourse Obligations shall be reduced to zero, any additional Asset Interest Collections received by the Servicer (i) if applicable, shall be remitted to Agent’s account for the ratable benefit of the Purchaser Groups in accordance with their respective Percentages, no later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) to the extent required to fund any Aggregate Reduction on such Settlement Date and (ii) any balance remaining thereafter shall be remitted from the Servicer to Seller on such Settlement Date. Each Terminating Financial Institution shall be allocated a ratable portion of the Jupiter Group’s Percentage of Collections from the date of any assignment by Jupiter to the Financial Institutions pursuant to a Funding Agreement (the“Termination Date”) until such Terminating Financing Institution’s

Capital shall be paid in full. This ratable portion shall be calculated on the Termination Date of each Terminating Financial Institution as a percentage equal to (i) Capital of such Terminating Financial Institution outstanding on its Termination Date, divided by (ii) the aggregate Capital outstanding from the Jupiter Group on such Termination Date (the“Termination Percentage”). Each Terminating Financial Institution’s Termination Percentage shall remain constant prior to the Amortization Date. On and after the Amortization Date, each Termination Percentage shall be disregarded, and all Purchasers’ Capital shall be reduced ratably in accordance with Section 2.4.

Section 2.3Asset Interest Collections Following Amortization. On the Amortization Date and on each day thereafter, Seller shall remain liable on a full-recourse basis to pay the Recourse Obligations pursuant to Section 2.1, and the Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust, for the holder of each Purchaser Interest, all Asset Interest Collections received on such day. On and after the Amortization Date, the Servicer shall, at any time upon the request from time to time by (or pursuant to standing instructions from) the Agent or Fifth Third (i) remit to the Agent, for the ratable account of the Purchasers, the amounts set aside pursuant to the preceding sentence, and (ii) apply such amounts to reduce the Capital associated with each such Purchaser Interest and any other Aggregate Unpaids in accordance with Section 2.4.

Section 2.4Application of Asset Interest Collections. If there shall be insufficient funds on deposit for the Servicer to distribute funds in payment in full of the aforementioned amounts pursuant to Section 2.2 or 2.3 (as applicable), the Servicer shall distribute funds:

first,to the payment of the Servicer’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with servicing, administering and collecting the Pool Receivables, including the Servicing Fee, if Seller or one of its Affiliates is not then acting as the Servicer,

second,to the reimbursement of the Agent’s and Purchasers’ costs of collection and enforcement of this Agreement,

third,ratably to the payment of all accrued and unpaid fees under the Fee Letters, CP Costs and Yield,

fourth,(to the extent applicable) to the ratable reduction of the Aggregate Capital (without regard to any Termination Percentage),

fifth,for the ratable payment of all other unpaid Recourse Obligations, provided that to the extent such Recourse Obligations relate to the payment of Servicer costs and expenses, including the Servicing Fee, when Seller or one of its Affiliates is acting as the Servicer, such costs and expenses will not be paid until after the payment in full of all other Recourse Obligations, and

sixth,after the Aggregate Unpaids have been indefeasibly reduced to zero, to Seller.

Asset Interest Collections applied to the payment of Aggregate Unpaids shall be distributed in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, and, giving effect to each of the priorities set forth above in this Section 2.4, shall be shared ratably (within each priority) among the Agent and the Purchasers in accordance with the amount of such Aggregate Unpaids owing to each of them in respect of each such priority.

Section 2.5Payment Rescission. No payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids shall be considered paid or applied hereunder to the extent that, at any time, all or any portion of such payment or application is rescinded by application of law or judicial authority, or must otherwise be returned or refunded for any reason. Seller shall remain obligated for the amount of any payment or application so rescinded, returned or refunded, and shall promptly pay to the Agent (for the account of the applicable Person or Persons who suffered such rescission, return or refund) the full amount thereof, plus the Default Fee from the date of any such rescission, return or refunding.

Section 2.6Maximum Purchaser Interests. Seller shall ensure that the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers shall at no time exceed in the aggregate 100%. If the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests of the Purchasers exceeds 100%, Seller shall pay to the Agent’s account for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers in accordance with their Percentages within one (1) Business Day an amount to be applied to reduce the aggregate Capital, such that after giving effect to such payments, the aggregate of the Purchaser Interests equals or is less than l00%.

Section 2.7Clean-up Call. In addition to Sellers rights pursuant to Section 1.3, the Servicer shall have the right (after providing written notice to the Agent in accordance with the Required Notice Period), to direct the Seller at any time following the reduction of the Aggregate Capital to a level that is less than 10.0% of the original Purchase Limit, repurchase from the Purchasers all, but not less than all, of the then outstanding Purchaser Interests (a“Clean-up Call”). The Agent will promptly forward a copy of each such notice to the Purchasers. The aggregate purchase price in respect thereof shall be an amount equal to the Aggregate Unpaids through the date of such repurchase, payable in immediately available funds. Such repurchase shall be without representation, warranty or recourse of any kind by, on the part of, or against any Purchaser or the Agent, except that the Agent and the Purchasers shall represent and warrant that the Purchasers Interests are free and clear of any Adverse Claim created by any of them. Upon such payment in full of the Aggregate Unpaids following a Clean-up Call, the Commitments and this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, except for provisions which expressly survive termination.

ARTICLE III.
CP FUNDING

Section 3.1CP Costs. Seller shall pay CP Costs with respect to the Capital associated with each Purchaser Interest (a) of Jupiter for each day that any Capital in respect of such Purchaser Interest is outstanding and (b) of Fifth Third for each day that any Capital in respect of such Purchaser Interest is outstanding during a CP Availability Period. Each such Purchaser Interest funded substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper shall accrue CP Costs each day on a pro rata basis, based upon the percentage share the Capital in respect of such

Purchaser Interest represents in relation to all assets held by Jupiter or Fountain Square, as applicable, and funded substantially with Pooled Commercial Paper.

Section 3.2CP Costs Payments. On each applicable Settlement Date, Seller shall pay to the Agent’s account (for the benefit of Jupiter and Fifth Third) an aggregate amount equal to all accrued and unpaid CP Costs in respect of the Capital associated with all Purchaser Interests of Jupiter or Fifth Third, as the case may be, for the immediately preceding Accrual Period in accordance with Article II.

Section 3.3Calculation of CP Costs. On or before the 5th Business Day of each calendar month hereafter while Jupiter has any Purchaser Interest outstanding and Fifth Third has funding available from Fountain Square, (a) the Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs owing to Jupiter for the applicable Accrual Period, and (b) Fifth Third shall calculate the aggregate amount of CP Costs owing to Fifth Third for the applicable Accrual Period, and Fifth Third shall notify the Agent of Fifth Third’s CP Costs for such Accrual Period. Within two (2) Business Days thereafter, the Agent shall notify Seller of the CP Costs for each of Jupiter and Fifth Third for such Accrual Period.

ARTICLE IV.
LIQUIDITY FUNDING

Section 4.1Liquidity Funding. Each Liquidity Interest shall accrue Yield for each day during its Tranche Period at either the LIBO Rate or the Base Rate in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Until Seller gives notice to the Agent (who will promptly forward a copy of each such notice to the Committed Purchasers) of another Discount Rate in accordance with Section 4.4 hereof, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred by Jupiter to the Financial Institutions pursuant to a Funding Agreement and for any Fifth Third Liquidity Interest shall be the Base Rate. If the Financial Institutions acquire by assignment from Jupiter any Purchaser Interest pursuant to a Funding Agreement, each Purchaser Interest so assigned shall each be deemed to have a new Tranche Period commencing on the date of any such assignment. If the CP Availability Period ends, Fifth Third shall promptly notify the Agent and the Seller Parties of such termination, and each Purchaser Interest of Fifth Third shall be deemed to have a new Tranche Period commencing on the date the CP Availability Period ended.

Section 4.2Yield Payments. On the Settlement Date for each Liquidity Interest, Seller shall pay to the Agent (for the benefit of the Financial Institutions or Fifth Third, as applicable) an aggregate amount equal to the accrued and unpaid Yield for the entire Tranche Period of each such Liquidity Interest in accordance with Article II.

Section 4.3Selection and Continuation of Tranche Periods.

(a) With consultation from (and approval by) the Agent, Seller shall from time to time request Tranche Periods for the Liquidity Interests, provided that, at any time any Liquidity Interest is outstanding, Seller shall always request Tranche Periods from such Purchaser such that at least one Tranche Period shall end on the date specified in clause (A) of the definition of Settlement Date.

(b) Seller, on the one hand, and as applicable, the Agent or Fifth Third, on the other hand, upon notice to and consent by the other received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of a Tranche Period (the“Terminating Tranche”) for any Purchaser Interest, may, effective on the last day of the Terminating Tranche: (i) divide any such Purchaser Interest into multiple Purchaser Interests of the same Purchaser Group, (ii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with one or more other Purchaser Interests of the same Purchaser Group that have a Terminating Tranche ending on the same day as such Terminating Tranche or (iii) combine any such Purchaser Interest with a new Purchaser Interests of the same Purchaser Group to be purchased on the day such Terminating Tranche ends, provided, that in no event may a Purchaser Interest of Jupiter be combined with a Purchaser Interest of the Financial Institutions or of Fifth Third, and in no event may a Purchaser Interest of Fifth Third be combined with a Purchaser Interest of anyone in the Jupiter Group.

Section 4.4Liquidity Interest Discount Rates. Seller may select the LIBO Rate or the Base Rate for each Liquidity Interest. Seller shall by 12:00 noon (Chicago time): (i) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the LIBO Rate is being requested as a new Discount Rate and (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the expiration of any Terminating Tranche with respect to which the Base Rate is being requested as a new Discount Rate, give the Agent (who will promptly forward a copy of each such notice to the applicable Committed Purchasers) irrevocable notice of the new Discount Rate for the Purchaser Interest associated with such Terminating Tranche. Until Seller gives notice in accordance with the preceding sentence of another Discount Rate, the initial Discount Rate for any Purchaser Interest transferred to the Financial Institutions pursuant to a Funding Agreement, and of any Purchaser Interest of Fifth Third outstanding when the CP Availability Period ends, shall be the Base Rate.

Section 4.5Suspension of the LIBO Rate.

(a) If any Committed Purchaser notifies Seller that it has determined that funding its Liquidity Interest at a LIBO Rate would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any governmental or regulatory authority, whether or not having the force of law, or that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund its Liquidity Interests at such LIBO Rate are not available or (ii) such LIBO Rate does not accurately reflect the cost of acquiring or maintaining a Liquidity Interest at such LIBO Rate, then the Committed Purchaser(s) in the applicable Purchaser Group shall suspend the availability of such LIBO Rate and require Seller to select the Base Rate for any Liquidity Interest accruing Yield at such LIBO Rate.

(b) If less than all of the Financial Institutions give a notice to the Agent pursuant to Section 4.5(a), each Financial Institution which gave such a notice shall be obliged, at the request of Seller, Jupiter or the Agent, to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to (i) another Financial Institution or (ii) another funding entity nominated by Seller or the Agent that is acceptable to Jupiter and willing to participate in this Agreement through the Liquidity Termination Date in the place of such notifying Financial Institution;provided that (i) the notifying Financial Institution receives payment in full, pursuant to an Assignment Agreement, of an amount equal to such notifying Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the Capital and Yield owing to all of the Financial Institutions and all accrued but unpaid fees and other costs and expenses payable in respect of its Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Interests of the Financial Institutions, and (ii) the replacement Financial Institution otherwise satisfies the requirements of Section 12.1(b).

Such Equity Interests are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire securities of Seller.

(p) Not a Regulated Entity. Such Seller Party is not an“investment company”within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute. Such Seller Party is not subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, the Interstate Commerce Act, any state public utilities code, or any other Federal or state statute or regulation limiting its ability to incur Indebtedness or to sell interests in the Pool Receivables or the Asset Interest.

(q) Compliance with Law. Such Seller Party has complied with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, writs, judgments, injunctions, decrees or awards to which it may be subject, except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Pool Receivable, together with the Contract related thereto, does not contravene any laws, rules or regulations applicable thereto (including,without limitation, laws, rules and regulations relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy), and no part of such Contract is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation, except where such contravention or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(s) Payments to Originator. Seller has given reasonably equivalent value to Originator in consideration for the Asset Interest and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt.

(t) Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract with respect to each Pool Receivable is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the Pool Receivable created thereunder and any accrued interest thereon, enforceable against the Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(u) Eligible Receivables. Each Receivable included in the Asset Interest is an Eligible Receivable.

(v) Net Asset Interest Balance. Seller has determined that, immediately after giving effect to each purchase hereunder, the Net Asset Interest Balance will at least equal 1.2 times the Aggregate Capital then outstanding.

(w) Accounting. The manner in which such Seller Party accounts for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Receivable Interest Sale Agreement does not jeopardize the true sale analysis.

Section 5.2Financial Institution Representations and Warranties. Each Financial Institution hereby represents and warrants to the Agent and Jupiter that:

(a) Existence and Power. Such Financial Institution is a corporation or a banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, and has all power to perform its obligations hereunder.

This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Financial Institution.

(c) Governmental Authorization. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required for the due execution and delivery by such Financial Institution of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder.

(d) Binding Effect. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Financial Institution enforceable against such Financial Institution in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 8.1Designation of Servicer. The servicing, administration and collection of the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the“Servicer") so designated from time to time in accordance with Article VI of the Receivable Interest Sale Agreement and this Article VIII. Ferrellgas is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Agent and Fifth Third, acting jointly, may designate as Servicer any Person to succeed Ferrellgas or any successor Servicer;provided, however,that unless an Amortization Event (or another event of the type described in the definition of“Amortization Date”has occurred), replacement of the Servicer shall not result in the occurrence of the Amortization Date.

Section 8.2Certain Duties of Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall administer the Asset Interest Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II. The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the account of Seller and the Purchasers their respective shares of the Asset Interest Collections in accordance with Article II. The Servicer shall, upon the request of the and Agent and Fifth Third, acting jointly, segregate, in a manner acceptable to the Agent and Fifth Third all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to time constituting Asset Interest Collections from the general funds of the Servicer or Seller prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II. If the Servicer shall be required to segregate Asset Interest Collections pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Servicer shall segregate and deposit with a bank designated by the Agent and Fifth Third such allocable share of Asset Interest Collections of Receivables set aside for the Purchasers on the first Business Day following receipt by the Servicer of such Asset Interest Collections, duly endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer.

(b) The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as the Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Asset Interest Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable, Defaulted Receivable or Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Agent or the Purchasers under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, from and after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Agent (acting in consultation with Fifth Third) shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Pool Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.

(c) The Servicer shall hold in trust for Seller and the Purchasers all Records that (i) evidence or relate to the Asset Interest or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Asset Interest and shall, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Agent following the occurrence of an Amortization Event, deliver or make available to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, all such Records, at a place selected by the Agent. The Servicer shall, from time to time at the request of any Purchaser, furnish to the Purchasers (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Purchasers pursuant to Article II.

(d) Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any indebtedness owed by it to Originator or Seller shall, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Agent, be applied as a Collection of any Pool Receivable of such Obligor (starting with the oldest such Pool Receivable) to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder before being applied to any other receivable or other obligation of such Obligor.

Section 8.3Collection Notices. The Agent is authorized at any time to date and to deliver to Wells Fargo Bank the Collection Notices;provided, however,that nothing herein shall be deemed to give the Agent or any Purchaser any claim to, Adverse Claim on or right to retain any amounts deposited into the Servicer’s Concentration Account or the Facility Account which do not constitute Asset Interest Collections andprovided, further,that unless an Amortization Event (or another event of the type described in the definition of“Amortization Date”has occurred), delivery of the Collection Notices shall not result in the occurrence of the Amortization Date. Effective when the Agent delivers such notices, Servicer hereby transfers to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, the exclusive control of the Servicer’s Concentration Account, and Seller hereby transfers to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, the exclusive ownership and control of the Facility Account. Each of the Seller Parties hereby authorizes the Agent, and agrees that the Agent shall be entitled: (i) at any time after delivery of the Collections Notices, to endorse such Seller Party’s name on checks and other instruments representing Asset Interest Collections, (ii) at any time after the earlier to occur of an Amortization Event or replacement of the Servicer, to enforce the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and (iii) at any time after delivery of the Collections Notices, to take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Asset Interest Collections to come into the possession of the Agent rather than such Seller Party.

Section 8.4Responsibilities of Seller. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Agent and the Purchasers of their rights hereunder shall not release the Servicer, Originator or Seller from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Purchasers shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Seller.

Section 8.5Reports. The Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent (i) on the 18th day of each month hereafter or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each, a“Monthly Reporting Date”), a Monthly Report and (ii) at such times as the Agent or Fifth Third shall reasonably request, a listing by Obligor of all Pool Receivables together with an aging of all Pool Receivables. Additionally, at such more frequent

times as the Agent or Fifth Third shall reasonably request, upon five (5) days’ notice, the Servicer will furnish (x) a report calculating the amount of Eligible Receivables as of such date based on the information available to determine sales, credits, charge-offs and collections since the most recent Monthly Report, or (y) such other form of report in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and Fifth Third with respect to the amount of Eligible Receivables based on available information. At any time that the Agent or Fifth Third shall request upon not less than five (5) days’ notice, the Servicer shall prepare and forward to the Agent an interim report setting forth all of the items covered in a Monthly Report, as of the date of such request, and in the same format as a Monthly Report.

(vi) the commingling of Asset Interest Collections at any time with other funds;

(vii) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to or arising from this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the transactions

Notwithstanding any such sale by a Financial Institution of a participating interest to a Participant, such Financial Institution’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Financial Institution shall remain solely responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Seller Parties, Jupiter, the Agent and Fifth Third shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Financial Institution in connection with such Financial Institution’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Each Financial Institution agrees that any agreement between such Financial Institution and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict such Financial Institution’s right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described inSection 14.l(b)(i).

(b) Fifth Third may, in the ordinary course of its business at any time sell to one or more Participants, including without limitation Fountain Square, participating interests in its Purchaser Interests or any other interest of Fifth Third hereunder.

Fifth Third agrees that any agreement between Fifth Third and any such Participant in respect of such participating interest shall not restrict Fifth Third’s right to agree to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to this Agreement, except for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification described inSection 14.l(b)(i).

ARTICLE XIII.
FUNDING AGREEMENT

Section 13.1Funding Agreement Fundings. The parties hereto acknowledge that each Conduit may assign all or any portion of its Purchaser Interests to the Financial Institutions in its Purchaser Group at any time pursuant to a Funding Agreement to finance or refinance the necessary portion of its Purchaser Interests through a funding under such Funding Agreement to the extent available. The fundings under such Funding Agreement will accrue Yield in accordance with Section 4.1. Regardless of whether a funding of Purchaser Interests by such Financial Institutions constitutes the direct purchase of a Purchaser Interest hereunder, an assignment under a Funding Agreement of a Purchaser Interest originally funded by such Conduit or the sale of one or more participations or other interests under a Funding Agreement in such Purchaser Interest, each Financial Institution participating in a funding of a Purchaser Interest pursuant to a Funding Agreement shall have the rights and obligations of a “Purchaser” hereunder with the same force and effect as if it had done so directly.

Section 13.2Terminating Financial Institutions.

(a) Each Financial Institution hereby agrees to deliver written notice to the Agent not more than 30 Business Days and not less than 5 Business Days prior to the Liquidity Termination Date indicating whether such Financial Institution intends to renew its Commitment hereunder. If any Financial Institution fails to deliver such notice on or prior to the date that is 5 Business Days prior to the Liquidity Termination Date, such Financial Institution will be deemed to have declined to renew its Commitment (each Financial Institution which has declined or has been deemed to have declined to renew its Commitment hereunder, a“Non- Renewing Financial Institution”). The Agent shall promptly notify Jupiter of each Non-Renewing Financial Institution and Jupiter, in its sole discretion, may (A) to the extent of Commitment Availability, declare that such Non-Renewing Financial Institution’s Commitment shall, to such extent, automatically terminate on a date specified by Jupiter on or before the Liquidity Termination Date or (B) upon one (1) Business Days’ notice to such Non-Renewing Financial Institution assign to such Non-Renewing Financial Institution on a date specified by Jupiter such Non-Renewing Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchaser Interests then held by Jupiter, subject to, and in accordance with, Section 13.1. In addition, Jupiter may, in its sole discretion, at any time (x) to the extent of Commitment Availability, declare that any Affected Financial Institution’s Commitment shall automatically terminate on a

date specified by Jupiter or (y) assign to any Affected Financial Institution on a date specified by Jupiter such Affected Financial Institution’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate Purchaser Interests then held by Jupiter, subject to, and in accordance with, Section 13.1 (each Affected Financial Institution or each Non-Renewing Financial Institution is hereinafter referred to as a “Terminating Financial Institution”). The parties hereto expressly acknowledge that any declaration of the termination of any Commitment, any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.2 and the order of priority of any such termination or assignment among Terminating Financial Institutions shall be made by Jupiter in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b) Upon any assignment to a Terminating Financial Institution as provided in this Section 13.2, any remaining Commitment of such Terminating Financial Institution shall automatically terminate. Upon reduction to zero of the Capital of all of the Purchaser Interests of a Terminating Financial Institution (after application of Asset Interest Collections thereto pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3) all rights and obligations of such Terminating Financial Institution hereunder shall be terminated and such Terminating Financial Institution shall no longer be a“Financial Institution”hereunder; provided, however, that the provisions of Article X shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to Purchaser Interests held by such Terminating Financial Institution prior to its termination as a Financial Institution.

ARTICLE XIV.
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 14.1Waivers and Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of the Agent or any Purchaser in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b) No provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented, modified or waived except in writing in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.1(b). Seller, Jupiter and the Agent, at the direction of the Required Committed Purchasers, may enter into written modifications or waivers of any provisions of this Agreement, provided, however, that no such modification or waiver shall:

transfer by Seller of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (G) change the definition of“Eligible Receivable”or“Purchase Price,”or (H) amend or modify any defined term (or any defined term used directly or indirectly in such defined term) used in clauses (A) through (G) above in a manner that would circumvent the intention of the restrictions set forth in such clauses; or

(ii) without the written consent of the then Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement if the effect thereof is to affect the rights or duties of such Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of any Committed Purchaser but with the consent of Seller, the Agent may amend this Agreement solely to add additional Persons as Committed Purchasers hereunder and (ii) the Agent, Jupiter and the Required Committed Purchasers may enter into amendments to modify any of the terms or provisions of Article XI, Article XII, Section 14.13 or any other provision of this Agreement without the consent of the Seller Parties, provided that such amendment has no negative impact upon either of the Seller Parties. Any modification or waiver made in accordance with this Section 14.1 shall apply to each of the Purchasers equally and shall be binding upon the Seller Parties, the Purchasers and the Agent.

Section 14.2Notices. Except as provided in this Section 14.2, all communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telecopy or electronic facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to the other parties hereto at their respective addresses or telecopy numbers set forth on the signature pages hereof or at such other address or telecopy number as such Person may hereafter specify for the purpose of notice to each of the other parties hereto.

Seller agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written confirmation of each telephonic notice signed by an authorized officer of Seller; provided, however, the absence of such confirmation shall not affect the validity of such notice. If the written confirmation differs from the action taken by the Agent or any Purchaser, as the case may be, the records of the Agent or such Purchaser, as applicable, shall govern absent manifest error.

Section 14.3Ratable Payments. If any Purchaser, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it with respect to any portion of the Aggregate Unpaids owing to such Purchaser (other than payments received pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Purchaser entitled to receive a ratable share of such Aggregate Unpaids, such Purchaser agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such Aggregate Unpaids held by the other Purchasers so that after such purchase each Purchaser will hold its ratable proportion of such Aggregate Unpaids; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such

Purchaser, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

Section 14.4Protection of Ownership Interests of the Purchasers.

At any time after the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Agent may, or the Agent may direct Seller or the Servicer to, notify the Obligors of Pool Receivables, at Seller’s expense, of the ownership or security interests of the Purchasers under this Agreement and may also direct that payments of all amounts due or that become due under any or all Receivables be made directly to the Agent or its designee. Seller or the Servicer (as applicable) shall, at any Purchaser’s request, withhold the identity of such Purchaser in any such notification.

(b) If any Seller Party fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder: (i) the Agent or any Purchaser may (but shall not be required to) perform, or cause performance of, such obligations, and the Agent’s or such Purchaser’s costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Seller as provided in Section 10.3, (ii) each Seller Party irrevocably authorizes the Agent at any time and from time to time in the sole discretion of the Agent, and appoints the Agent as its attorney-in-fact, to act on behalf of such Seller Party (A) to execute on behalf of Seller as debtor and to file financing statements necessary or desirable in the Agent’s sole discretion to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interest of the Purchasers in the Pool Receivables and (B) to file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement with respect to the Asset Interest as a financing statement in such offices as the Agent in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to perfect and to maintain the perfection and priority of the interests of the Purchasers in the Asset Interest.

(c) Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that each of them and each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, except where confidentiality is reasonably necessary to comply with U.S. federal or state securities laws.

Section 14.6Bankruptcy Petition.
