The purchase and sale of Receivables pursuant to this Agreement shall be promptly notified to the Obligors.

2.2 Eligible Receivables to be purchased and sold will be those specified in accordance with the procedure set forth in Section 3 below, including those to be purchased on the Restatement Date.

2.3 In connection with each sale of Eligible Receivables to Purchasers, each Company shall sell, transfer, and assign to each Purchaser an undivided fifty percent (50%) interest (or, to the extent provided in Section 2.7 below, a one hundred percent (100%) interest to any Funding Purchaser) in all of such Company’s rights, title and interests in and to such Receivables, absolutely and without reservation by such Company of any ownership or other interests, including without limitation, all Invoices evidencing or otherwise relating to such Receivables and Purchased Assets.

2.4 Eligible Receivables shall be offered for sale by the Companies pursuant to this Agreement not more frequently than twice each calendar month after the Restatement Date unless otherwise agreed by Purchasers. Unless otherwise agreed by Tech Data and Purchasers, the Purchase Date[s] for each calendar month shall be the date[s] set forth on Schedule 1 (unless any such date does not fall on a Business Day, in which event such Purchase Date shall occur on the immediately following Business Day).

2.5 Each Company shall offer for sale to Purchasers only those Receivables that are Eligible Receivables.

2.6 In addition to the other provisions of this Agreement and applicable Laws, each Company hereby assigns all of its rights under each Guaranty to Purchasers’ Agent for the benefit of Purchasers and of Purchasers’ Agent. Upon request from Purchasers’ Agent, each Company will execute and deliver a written confirmation of such assignment of any such Guaranty, in form and substance satisfactory to Purchasers’ Agent.

2.7 The obligations of Purchasers hereunder to purchase Eligible Receivables are several, based on their respective Purchase Commitment Percentages, and not joint; provided , however , that if any Purchaser (a “ Non-Funding Purchaser ”) shall fail to purchase its Purchase Commitment Percentage of any Eligible Receivable as required herein, the other Purchaser (a “ Funding Purchaser ”) shall, to the extent otherwise required herein, purchase a one hundred percent (100%) interest in such Eligible Receivable, but in no event shall such Funding Purchaser make any such purchase where the aggregate amount of such Funding Purchaser’s ownership interests in the Purchased Receivables from all the Companies purchased by such Funding Purchaser hereunder and outstanding at any time would exceed such Funding Purchaser’s Purchase Commitment; and provided , further , that nothing in this Section shall be deemed to limit or restrict any rights or remedies of any Company under this Agreement with respect to such Non-Funding Purchaser for any breach or default by such Non-Funding Purchaser of its obligations hereunder.

Section 3. Transmission of Receivables Information and Purchase Procedure.

3.1 Tech Data, on behalf of itself and each other Company offering Eligible Receivables for purchase, shall deliver to each Purchaser before 2:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia

 

15

 


time) not later than one Business Day immediately preceding each proposed Purchase Date, or at mutually agreed upon intervals, a Receivables List. If agreed to by a Purchaser, delivery of the Receivables List may be satisfied as to such Purchaser, in whole or in any part, through direct electronic or Internet access by such Purchaser to each selling Company’s systems and databases (or that of such Company’s third party provider of Receivables services, if such access is approved by the third party provider) to view or retrieve the information specified above, at no cost to such Purchaser. Each Company shall timely deliver to Purchasers, in a mutually acceptable form, all other data or information otherwise requested by Purchasers’ Agent, on behalf of any Purchaser, in order to purchase such Eligible Receivables under this Agreement.

3.2 Each Purchaser shall have the right to inspect, during each Company’s normal business hours upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior notice, and to request and obtain copies of, each Company’s Books and Records relating to Eligible Receivables, in each case with such notice or request to be given or made by Purchasers’ Agent on behalf of any Purchaser.

3.3 The Books and Records maintained by each Company relating to Purchased Receivables and the collection by each Company of Purchased Receivables shall be clearly identifiable for all purposes (including audit purposes) and shall clearly reflect that all rights, title and interests in the Purchased Receivables have been sold, transferred and assigned. Such Books and Records shall include information sufficient to permit identification of the respective percentage interests owned by the Purchasers in the Purchased Receivables and the particular Purchased Receivables to which amounts collected in respect of the Purchased Receivables and other Purchased Assets are attributable. Each Purchaser (including its auditors, legal counsel or accountants retained by such Purchaser) may inspect and request copies of such Books and Records relating to Purchased Receivables at any time at each Company’s offices during normal business hours and upon notice given by Purchasers’ Agent, on behalf of any Purchaser, at least one (1) Business Day in advance to such Company. Each Company shall (i) bear responsibility for ensuring that Purchasers have the right to inspect, obtain copies, and gain access to any such Books and Records held or maintained by any third party, and (ii) bear any loss occasioned by any Purchaser’s inability to obtain access to information with respect to such Purchased Receivables from the Books and Records.

3.4 The payment for the purchase and sale of the Purchased Receivables shall occur pursuant to Section 4 hereof. The Purchase Date for each sale of Eligible Receivables shall be deemed to occur on the date Purchasers’ Agent enters the purchase of such Eligible Receivables in its books and records (including entries which may be made electronically to books and records kept on Purchasers’ Agent’s computer systems). If any Company fails to deliver to Purchasers’ Agent any documents evidencing any of the Purchased Receivables, including documentation of the Invoice and delivery tracking numbers with respect to any such Purchased Receivables (and which each such Company shall hold as bailee for Purchasers’ Agent and Purchasers), immediately upon request (or, in the case of documentation evidencing the actual delivery of Goods giving rise to such Eligible Receivables, as soon as practicable following such request by Purchasers’ Agent, but in any event not later than 15 days following such request), then Purchasers may require such Company to repurchase such Receivables in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5 .

Section 4. Payment and Purchase Price.

4.1 The purchase of Receivables by Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement on each Purchase Date shall vest in Purchasers full legal, equitable and beneficial title in and to each Receivable purchased on such Purchase Date on the terms and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with each such Purchaser to receive and hold an undivided interest therein equal to its Purchase Commitment Percentage (or, to the extent provided in Section 2.7 above, a one-hundred percent (100%) interest therein to be held by any Funding Purchaser). The entry of the purchase of such Receivables by Purchasers’ Agent in its books and records shall constitute conclusive evidence of the transfer of ownership of such Receivables to the respective Purchasers as provided in this Agreement.

4.2 Purchasers’ Agent, upon written direction from each Purchaser and on behalf of each Purchaser from the funds made available by it to Purchasers’ Agent, shall pay the Purchase Price in Dollars, as set forth in Section 4.3 , to Tech Data for the account of the selling Company for the Receivables being purchased. Tech Data shall, on behalf of each of the Companies, pay the Program Fee in Dollars directly to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of each Purchaser, as set forth in Section 4.3 , on each Settlement Date when (i) no Eligible Receivables are offered by any Company for sale to Purchasers hereunder, or (ii) the aggregate amount of Eligible Receivables offered by all Companies for sale to Purchasers is less than $1,000,000.

4.3 The parties shall adhere to the following settlement procedures, unless otherwise agreed by Purchasers, for so long as this Agreement remains in effect or any Receivables Balance remains outstanding, as follows with respect to the Purchase Price, Program Fee, Repurchase Receivables, and Commercial Disputes:

 

  (1) The Servicer shall deliver to each Purchaser, at least one Business Day prior to each Settlement Date (and at such other times as may be requested by Purchasers), an accounts aging trial balance report (the “ Receivables Report ”) in such form and with such detail as approved by Purchasers for all Purchased Receivables, and the Servicer and each of the Companies shall deliver to each Purchaser any other reports or other information with respect to such Purchased Receivables as may be reasonably requested by Purchasers’ Agent, on behalf of any Purchaser.

 

  (2) The Servicer shall pay to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, on or before each Settlement Date, (i) all amounts the Servicer has collected (including any proceeds of credit insurance received in respect of any Purchased Receivables) since the preceding Settlement Date on account of Purchased Receivables or otherwise for the benefit of Purchasers, (ii) the Program Fee, if any, payable to Purchasers in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Interests, and (iii) all other amounts otherwise owed by any Company to Purchasers as of such Settlement Date.

 

17

 


  (3) Each Company shall identify and hold in trust for Purchasers all amounts remitted or paid to such Company, if any, on account of each Purchased Receivable from such Company as the property of Purchasers (including any proceeds of credit insurance received in respect of any Purchased Receivables), and shall immediately deposit all such funds in the Purchasers Deposit Account from time to time, subject to reconciliation on each subsequent Settlement Date.

 

  (4) Purchasers’ Agent shall promptly notify each Purchaser of the amount of its share, based on Section 2.7 , of the amounts to be paid to or for the account of any Company in respect of the Purchase Price for the Receivables to be purchased hereunder and the Discount Percentage applicable thereto. Each Purchaser shall make such amount available to the Purchasers’ Agent in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 Noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the applicable Settlement Date. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions to such purchase, the Purchasers’ Agent shall make available to Tech Data for the account of the applicable Companies the amounts received by the Purchasers’ Agent from Purchasers. If Purchasers’ Agent shall have received written direction from a Purchaser on or prior to 10:00 a.m. on any Settlement Date that such Purchaser will make available to Purchasers’ Agent such Purchaser’s share of the applicable Purchase Price, Purchasers’ Agent may assume that such Purchaser has made such share available on such date and may, in reliance on such assumption, make available to Tech Data, for the account of the applicable Companies, a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Purchaser has not in fact made its share of the applicable Purchase Price available to Purchasers’ Agent, then the applicable Purchaser agrees to pay to Purchasers’ Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Tech Data, for the account of the applicable Companies, to but excluding the date of payment to Purchasers’ Agent, at (i) the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Rate, and (y) an overnight rate determined by Purchasers’ Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry customs and practices for interbank compensation; provided , however , that if such amount remains unpaid for a period longer than two (2) Business Days, such interest rate shall increase to an amount equal to the Base Rate plus an additional one percent (1.00%) per annum.

 

  (5)

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Company hereunder shall be made to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of the respective Purchasers to which such payment is owed, at Purchasers’ Agent’s designated office in immediately available funds on the applicable Settlement Date or as otherwise due hereunder. Purchasers’ Agent will promptly distribute to each Purchaser its applicable share of such payment in like funds. Unless Purchasers’ Agent shall receive notice from a

 

18

 


 

Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to Purchasers’ Agent for the account of Purchasers that such Company will not make such payment, Purchasers’ Agent may assume that such Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to Purchasers the amount due. In such event, if such Company has not in fact made such payment, then each Purchaser severally agrees to repay to Purchasers’ Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Purchaser in immediately available funds with interest thereon, from each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it, to but excluding the date of payment to Purchasers’ Agent, at the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Rate, and (ii) an overnight rate determined by Purchasers’ Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry customs and practices for interbank compensation.

 

  (6) The obligations owed by the parties to one another as of each Settlement Date shall be netted against one another. All payments to be made by Purchasers’ Agent on behalf of Purchasers to any Company, and all payments to be made by any Company to Purchasers’ Agent for the account of Purchasers hereunder, shall be made in Dollars in same day funds in time to be credited in accordance with normal banking procedures on the day when such payment is due and payable in accordance with the most current written wire instructions previously provided by one party to the other parties.

 

  (7) Whenever any payment to be made by one party to the other shall become due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be due on the immediately following Business Day, including as provided in Section 2.4 .

Section 5. Risk of Loss.

5.1 Except as specified herein below, Purchasers are assuming the risk of loss or non-payment, relative to Purchased Receivables, which is due solely to the respective Obligors’ Financial Inability to Pay on the date payment is due. Each Company retains all risk of loss or non-payment due in whole or in part to any Commercial Dispute.

5.2 If an Obligor does not pay all or any portion of a Purchased Receivable when such Purchased Receivable is due and payable on account of a Commercial Dispute (other than on account of a Commercial Dispute described in clause (iii) of the definition of “Commercial Dispute”), the selling Company may attempt to resolve with such Obligor the non-payment during the sixty (60) day period immediately following the earlier of (i) the date such Company became aware of the Commercial Dispute, and (ii) the Due Date for such Purchased Receivable. The selling Company shall notify Purchasers’ Agent of any settlement of Commercial Disputes known to it after reasonable investigation and the applicable Receivable Adjustments, if any. The selling Company shall pay to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, the amount of any such Receivable Adjustment in Dollars on the next Settlement Date. In the event that

 

19

 


such Company pays to Purchasers’ Agent the Receivable Adjustment and Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers receive payment in full of the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchased Receivable, then any further payments received by Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers on such Purchased Receivable (but not to exceed the amount of Receivable Adjustment actually paid by such Company to Purchasers’ Agent) shall be remitted to such Company and such Receivable Adjustment shall not be considered as an Adjustment for any further purpose under this Agreement. Neither Purchasers’ Agent nor any Purchaser shall have any duty to investigate the bona fide nature or the validity of any Commercial Dispute.

5.3 If a Purchased Receivable subject to a Commercial Dispute (other than a Commercial Dispute limited to the type described in clause (iii) of the definition of “Commercial Dispute”) has been outstanding for more than sixty (60) days past the applicable Due Date, then Purchasers’ Agent, upon written direction from Purchasers and on behalf of Purchasers, may require the selling Company to repurchase the Unresolved Dispute Amount. For Commercial Disputes limited to the type described in clause (iii) of the definition of “Commercial Dispute”, Purchasers’ Agent, upon written direction from Purchasers and on behalf of Purchasers, may require the selling Company to repurchase the Unresolved Dispute Amount after it has been outstanding for more than one hundred twenty (120) days past the Due Date. Subject to this Section 5.3 , such Company shall repay to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, the Unresolved Dispute Amount in Dollars on the next Settlement Date and upon such repurchase such Unresolved Dispute Amount shall not be considered as an Adjustment for any further purpose under this Agreement. If the Unresolved Dispute Amount is paid by such Company, and Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers receive further payments of the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchased Receivable which, combined with the Unresolved Dispute Amount paid by such Company to Purchasers’ Agent for such Purchased Receivable, equal to or exceeds the Invoice Amount (less applicable Adjustments) with respect to such Purchased Receivable, then further payments received by Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers on such Purchased Receivable (but not to exceed the Unresolved Dispute Amount actually paid by such Company to Purchasers’ Agent) shall be remitted to such Company or to Tech Data on behalf of such Company. If the entire Purchased Receivable balance is repaid by such Company, it becomes a Repurchase Receivable (as provided below), and each Purchaser, upon payment, shall transfer its undivided interest in the Repurchase Receivable and the rights appurtenant thereto to such Company without any warranties, representations, or recourse whatsoever, other than a representation and warranty that such Purchaser has not transferred its undivided interest in the Repurchase Receivable to any other third party and that such Repurchase Receivable is not subject to any security interest, lien or encumbrance granted or created by such Purchaser; provided , however , that such transfer shall not affect, and any Repurchase Receivable so transferred shall continue to be subject to, the security interest granted pursuant to Section 8.3 of this Agreement. In the event such Company pays Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, the amount necessary when added to other sums received for such Repurchase Receivable, equal to the Invoice Amount (less applicable Adjustments) of the Repurchase Receivable, then any further payments received by Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers thereafter on such Receivable shall be remitted to such Company or to Tech Data on behalf of such Company. This repayment obligation shall apply only as set forth in this Section 5.3 . In the event that such Company repays Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, the entire balance owing under the Purchased Receivable as provided in this

 

20

 


paragraph, and Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers receive further payments of the remaining unpaid portion of such Purchased Receivable from the Obligor, then further payments received by Purchasers’ Agent or Purchasers on such Receivable shall be remitted to such Company or to Tech Data on behalf of such Company. Purchasers’ Agent and Purchasers shall cooperate with such Company’s efforts to resolve and obtain payment of an Unresolved Dispute Amount.

5.4 The Servicer will direct the collection process to collect or resolve all Unresolved Dispute Amounts in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policies and Procedures.

5.5 If any Purchased Receivable shall be an amount less than that specified in the Receivables List (after giving effect to any Adjustments known on the Purchase Date) by reason of a credit issued by the selling Company or a reduction taken by an Obligor in respect of a discount or other claim, then such Company shall pay such difference to Purchasers’ Agent, for the account of Purchasers, on the next Settlement Date, or Purchasers’ Agent may, upon written direction from Purchasers at their option, deduct such payment from any payment due from Purchasers under this Agreement.

5.6 If any warranty made by any Company pursuant to this Agreement (including the warranties set forth in Section 7 below) in respect of any Purchased Receivables proves to have been inaccurate or false when deemed made hereunder, then without limiting Purchasers’ rights and remedies under this Agreement, such Purchased Receivables shall be repurchased by the selling Company on the next Settlement Date for the full amount thereof then owing to Purchasers in respect thereof.

5.7 If any Company owes Purchasers or Purchasers’ Agent any amount under this Agreement, Purchasers or Purchasers’ Agent may, in their or its sole discretion, deduct, offset or recoup the amount due and payable from any amount due or to become due under this Agreement from Purchasers or Purchasers’ Agent, including without limitation, the payment of the Purchase Price of any Purchased Receivables thereafter purchased by Purchasers, in their or its sole discretion, without any form of prior notice, and such action shall constitute payment of the such Purchase Price for purposes of this Agreement.
