(ii) the Obligor of which is not the Obligor on Defaulted Receivables, the aggregate Outstanding Balance of which exceeds 50% of such Obligor’s total Receivables,

(iii) which is not, on any date of determination, a Defaulted Receivable, a Charged-Off Receivable, or, if a Delinquency Trigger Event has occurred, a Delinquent Receivable,

(iv) which by its terms is due and payable within 30 days of the original billing date therefore and has not had its payment terms extended, provided that Receivables due and payable between 31 and 90 days of the original billing date in an aggregate amount not to exceed 15% of total Receivables may be included in Eligible Receivables,

(v) which is an “account” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions,

(vi) which is denominated and payable only in United States dollars in the United States,

(vii) which arises under an invoice, which, together with such Receivable, is in full force and effect and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms subject to no offset, counterclaim or other defense,

(viii) which arises under an invoice which (A) does not require the Obligor under such invoice to consent to the transfer, sale or assignment of the rights and duties of the applicable Originator or any of its assignees under such invoice and (B) does not contain a confidentiality provision that purports to restrict the ability of the Administrative Agent to exercise its rights, on behalf of the Purchasers, under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, its right to review such invoice,

(ix) which arises under an invoice that contains an obligation to pay a specified sum of money, contingent only upon the sale of propane, propane appliances or other related goods or the provision of services by the applicable Originator,

(x) which, together with the invoice related thereto, does not contravene any law, rule or regulation applicable thereto (including, without limitation, any law, rule and regulation relating to truth in lending, fair credit billing, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy) and with respect to which no part of the invoice related thereto is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation,

(xi) which satisfies all material requirements of the applicable Credit and Collection Policy,

(xii) which was generated in the ordinary course of the applicable Originator’s business,

(xiii) which arises solely from the sale of propane, propane appliances or other related goods or the provision of services to the related Obligor by the applicable Originator, and not by any other Person (in whole or in part),

(xiv) as to which the Administrative Agent has not notified Seller that the Administrative Agent has determined, in the exercise of its commercially reasonable credit judgment, that such Receivable or class of Receivables is not acceptable as an Eligible Receivable,

(xv) which is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim, any other defense (including defenses arising out of violations of usury laws) of the applicable Obligor against the applicable Originator or any other Adverse Claim, and the Obligor thereon holds no right as against such Originator to cause such Originator to repurchase the propane, propane appliances or other related goods the sale of which shall have given rise to such Receivable (except with respect to sale discounts effected pursuant to the invoice, or defective goods returned in accordance with the terms of the invoice),

(xvi) as to which the applicable Originator has satisfied and fully performed all obligations on its part with respect to such Receivable required to be fulfilled by it, and no further action is required to be performed by any Person with respect thereto other than payment thereon by the applicable Obligor,

(xvii) in which Seller’s ownership interest therein is free and clear of any Adverse Claim other than a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, and

(xviii) which is reported on PeopleSoft or Navision or such other similar system that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receivables associated with the “level-pay program” shall be Eligible Receivables to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Receivables does not exceed 20% of total Retail Receivables. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) Receivables associated with the “level-pay program” shall be counted towards the percentage in the preceding sentence and shall be Eligible Receivables only if the account balance of the Obligor participating in the level-pay program is a debit, and (b) anything contained in the representations, covenants or indemnities of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event will the failure to perfect the Administrative Agent’s security interest in Eligible Receivables permitted under clause (i)(a), (i)(b) or (i)(c) of this definition under foreign law, the Federal Assignment of Claims Act or similar legislation, as applicable, give rise to an Amortization Event or to Indemnified Amounts.

“Interim Reporting Date” means (a) the third Business Day of each calendar week, (b) the eighth Business Day of each calendar month beginning on or after May 1, 2012, (c) each Business Day following not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice from the Administrative Agent that it desires daily reporting, and (d) each other Business Day selected by the Servicer.

“Scheduled Termination Date” means the earlier to occur of (a) the stated maturity date under the Credit Agreement (or any replacement thereof and as the same may be modified from time to time regardless of whether the Agents under this Agreement consent to such modification), and (b) July 29, 2019.

“Unused Fee” means, on each Monthly Payment Date, a fully-earned and non-refundable fee payable by the Seller to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Purchasers, equal to 0.35% per annum multiplied by the average daily excess, if any, during the Accrual Period then most recently ended of (i) the Aggregate Commitments over (ii) the Aggregate Capital outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event may any reduction in the Aggregate Commitment become effective for purposes of computing the Unused Fee if, after giving effect to such reduction, the Aggregate Capital outstanding would exceed the Aggregate Commitments as so reduced.

1.3. The definition of “Servicer Compliance Certificate” set forth in Exhibit I to the Agreement is hereby deleted.

1.4. Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in Annex I hereto.
