AMENDED AND RESTATED

RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED RECEIVABLES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of June 27, 2007 made by and between CARTUS RELOCATION CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as originator and seller (the “Seller”) and KENOSIA FUNDING, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, as buyer (“the Issuer”).

WHEREAS, the Seller and Issuer entered into that certain Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2002 (as amended, supplemented or modified prior to the effectiveness hereof, the “Original Receivables Purchase Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have determined that the Original Receivables Purchase Agreement should be amended and restated in full to reflect all amendments entered into prior to the date hereof, including name changes, and to correct minor mistakes;

WHEREAS, this Agreement therefore amends and restates the Original Receivables Purchase Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Seller has purchased certain Receivables and Related Assets from Cartus Corporation (“Cartus”) and from time to time hereafter will create, and will purchase from Cartus, additional Receivables and Related Assets; and

WHEREAS, the Seller wishes to sell Receivables and Related Assets that it now owns and CRC Receivables and CRC Related Assets that it from time to time hereafter will own to the Issuer, and the Issuer is willing to purchase such CRC Receivables and CRC Related Assets from the Seller from time to time, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Issuer will pledge the same, together with all its other assets and properties now owned or hereafter acquired, to The Bank of New York (the “Trustee”) as security for the timely payment as and when due or to become due to any Series 2002-1 Noteholder, including Atlantic Asset Securitization LLC, as successor to Gotham Funding Corporation, and certain liquidity providers to Atlantic Asset Securitization LLC, of all principal and interest due on the Series 2002-1 Notes and of all other amounts due pursuant to the Transaction Documents;

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

SALE AND PURCHASE OF ASSETS

Section 2.1 Sale and Purchase.

(a) Agreement. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Issuer agrees to buy, and the Seller agrees to sell, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the following:

(i) all Cartus Purchased Assets owned by the Seller on the Closing Date or thereafter purchased, and all rights of the Seller under the CRC Purchase Agreement with respect to the Cartus Purchased Assets (collectively, the “Seller Purchased Assets”);

(ii) all Receivables arising out of or with respect to Direct Expenses, Equity Payments, Mortgage Payments and Mortgage Payoffs made by the Seller in respect of Home Purchase Contracts to which CRC is a party from and after the Closing Date (collectively, the “Seller Receivables”);

(iii) all Related Property with respect to the Seller Receivables (collectively, the “Seller Related Property”);

(iv) all CRC Collections;

(v) all proceeds of and earnings on any of the foregoing; and

(vi) to the extent not described in clauses (ii) or (iii), all of the right, title and interest CRC has in, to or under CRC Designated Receivables, including all Related Property with respect thereto and all proceeds thereof, including all rights, if any, to reimbursement of, or interest on, such CRC Designated Receivables.

The items listed above in clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), whenever and wherever arising, are collectively referred to herein as the “Seller Related Assets.” The Seller Purchased Assets, the Seller Receivables and the Seller Related Assets, together with the property described in clause (vi) above, are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Seller Assets”.

As used herein, “CRC Purchased Assets” means Seller Purchased Assets that are being purchased or have been Purchased by the Issuer hereunder; “CRC Receivables” means Seller Receivables that are being purchased or have been Purchased by the Issuer hereunder; “CRC Related Property” means Seller Related Property that is being purchased or has been Purchased by the Issuer hereunder; “CRC Related Assets” means Seller Related Assets that are being purchased or have been Purchased by the Issuer hereunder; and “KF Purchased Assets” means Seller Assets that are being purchased or have been Purchased by the Issuer hereunder.

Schedule 2.1 sets forth a list of all CRC Home Purchase Contracts as of the Closing Date. Each new Home Purchase Contract that is not a CRC Excluded Contract and that is entered into by the Seller during any month shall be added to the CRC Home Purchase Contracts and shall be reported on or after the last day of such month by delivering a written notice in the form of Exhibit 2.1 to the Issuer or its designee, whereupon Schedule 2.1 shall be amended by the Seller to add such new Home Purchase Contract to the list of CRC Home Purchase Contracts set forth therein. On or prior to the date of the delivery of any such notice, the Seller shall indicate, or cause to be indicated, in its computer files, books and records that the CRC Receivables and other KF Purchased Assets then existing and thereafter created pursuant to or in connection with each such CRC Home Purchase Contract are being transferred to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Treatment of Certain Receivables and CRC Related Assets. It is expressly understood that (i) each Pool Receivable sold to the Issuer hereunder, together with all other Cartus Purchased Assets and all CRC Related Assets then existing or thereafter created and arising with respect thereto, will thereafter be the property of the Issuer (or its assignees), without the necessity of any further purchase or other action by the Issuer (other than satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein) and (ii) the change of a Receivable’s status from that of Unsold Home Receivable to Unbilled Receivable or from Unbilled Receivable to Billed Receivable shall not be deemed the creation of a new Receivable for any purpose.

Section 2.2 Purchases. On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall purchase all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all Seller Assets existing as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Business Day. On each Business Day thereafter until the KF Termination Date, the Issuer shall purchase all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to all Seller Assets existing as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Business Day that were not previously purchased by the Issuer hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Insolvency Proceeding is pending with respect to either the Seller or the Issuer prior to the Termination Date, the Seller shall not sell, and the Issuer shall not buy, any KF Purchased Assets hereunder unless and until such Insolvency Proceeding is dismissed or otherwise terminated.

Section 2.3 No Assumption. The sales and Purchases of KF Purchased Assets do not constitute and are not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Issuer or its successors and assigns of any obligation of Cartus, the Seller or any other Person in connection with the KF Purchased Assets (other than any such obligations as may arise solely from the ownership of the Pool Receivables) or under the related Contracts or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, including without limitation any obligation to any Obligors or Transferred Employees. None of the Servicer, the Issuer or the Issuer’s assignees shall have any obligation or liability to any Obligor, Transferred Employee or other customer or client of Cartus (including without limitation any obligation to perform any of the obligations of Cartus under any Relocation Management Agreement, Cartus Home Purchase Contract, Cartus Related Property or any other agreement or any obligation of the Seller under any CRC Home Purchase Contract), except such obligations as may arise from the ownership of the Pool Receivables. Except as expressly provided in Section 3.05(k) of the Servicing Agreement, no such obligation

 

3


or liability to any Obligor, Transferred Employee or other customer or client of Cartus is intended to be assumed by the Servicer or its successors and assigns hereunder or under the Servicing Agreement, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed.

Section 2.4 No Recourse. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and Purchase of the KF Purchased Assets under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Seller; provided, however, that the Seller shall be liable to the Issuer and the Issuer’s assigns pursuant to the Transaction Documents for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by it pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party (it being understood that such obligations of the Seller will not arise solely on account of the credit-related inability of an Obligor to pay a Receivable).

Section 2.5 True Sales. The Seller and the Issuer intend the transfers of KF Purchased Assets hereunder to be true sales by the Seller to the Issuer that are absolute and irrevocable and to provide the Issuer with the full benefits of ownership of the KF Purchased Assets, and neither the Seller nor the Issuer intends the transactions contemplated hereunder to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from the Issuer to the Seller, secured by the KF Purchased Assets.

Section 2.6 Servicing of KF Purchased Assets. Consistent with the Issuer’s ownership of all KF Purchased Assets and subject to the terms of the Pool Relocation Management Agreements, as between the parties to this Agreement, the Issuer shall have the sole right to service, administer and collect all KF Purchased Assets, to assign such right and to delegate such right to others. In consideration of the Issuer’s purchase of the KF Purchased Assets and as more fully set forth in Section 11.12, the Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer intends to assign for the benefit of the Issuer and its successors and assigns the rights and interests granted by the Seller to the Issuer hereunder, and agrees to cooperate fully with the Issuer and its successors and assigns in the exercise of such rights.

Section 2.7 Financing Statements. In connection with the transfer described above, the Seller agrees, at its expense, to record and file financing statements (and continuation statements when applicable) with respect to the KF Purchased Assets conveyed by the Seller meeting the requirements of applicable law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect and maintain the perfection of the transfer and assignment of its interest in the KF Purchased Assets to the Issuer, and to deliver a file stamped copy of each such financing statement or other evidence of such filing to the Issuer as soon as practicable after the Closing Date; provided, however, that prior to recordation pursuant to Section 8.3 or the sale of a Home to an Ultimate Buyer, record title to such Home may remain in the name of the related Transferred Employee and no recordation in real estate records of the conveyance pursuant to the related Home Purchase Contract or Home Sale Contract shall be made except as otherwise required or permitted under Section 3.06(e) of the Servicing Agreement.

(b) With respect to the Purchase of any KF Purchased Assets by the Issuer from the Seller pursuant to Article II, (i) on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall pay to the Seller a purchase price equal to $49,901,207 and (ii) thereafter the Issuer shall pay to the Seller a purchase price equal to the fair market value of each KF Purchased Asset purchased by the Buyer (each such purchase price, the “Receivables Purchase Price”), which will be a purchase price reflecting such factors as the Seller and the Issuer mutually agree will result in a Receivables Purchase Price determined to be the fair market value of such KF Purchased Assets.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENT OF RECEIVABLES PURCHASE PRICE

Section 4.1 Receivables Purchase Price Payments. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer shall pay to the Seller on the Closing Date the Receivables Purchase Price for the KF Purchased Assets sold on such date. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Issuer shall pay to the Seller, on each other Business Day on which any KF Purchased Assets are purchased from the Seller by the Issuer pursuant to Article II, the Receivables Purchase Price for such KF Purchased Assets.

Section 4.2 Payments and Computations, Etc. All amounts to be paid by the Seller to the Issuer hereunder shall be paid in accordance with the terms hereof no later than close of business on the day when due in United States dollars in immediately available funds to an account specified in writing from time to time by the Issuer or its designee. Payments received by the Issuer after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. If any payment becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. The Seller shall pay to the Issuer, on demand, interest on all amounts not paid when due hereunder at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum; provided, however, that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All payments made under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim.

Section 4.3 Seller Adjustments.

(a) With respect to any Seller Receivable created by the Seller and purchased by the Issuer from the Seller, if on any day the Issuer (or its assigns), the Servicer or the Seller determines that (i) such Seller Receivable (A) was not identified by the Seller as other than an Eligible Receivable on the Business Day such Receivable was sold hereunder or (B) was otherwise treated by the Seller as or represented by the Seller to be an Eligible Receivable in any Monthly Originator Report or Weekly Activity Report, as applicable, but was not in fact an

 

5


Eligible Receivable on such date or (ii) any of the representations or warranties set forth in Section 6.1(d) or 6.1(k) was not true when made with respect to such Receivable or the related Equity Related Assets (each such Seller Receivable described in clause (i) or clause (ii), a “Seller Noncomplying Asset”), then the Seller shall pay the aggregate Unpaid Balance of such Seller Receivables (such payment, a “Seller Noncomplying Asset Adjustment”) to the Issuer in accordance with Section 4.3(c).

(b) If on any day the Unpaid Balance of any Seller Receivable is reduced as a result of any Concession made by the Seller, then the Seller shall pay to the Issuer the amount of such reduction (such payment, a “Seller Dilution Adjustment”) to the Issuer in accordance with Section 4.3(c).

(c) On each Business Day, the Seller shall pay to the Issuer, in cash in accordance with Section 4.2, an amount (a “Seller Adjustment”) equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate Seller Dilution Adjustment, if any, for each day from and including the immediately preceding Business Day plus (B) the Seller Noncomplying Asset Adjustment, if any, for each day from and including the immediately preceding Business Day. The Seller Receivables that gave rise to any Seller Dilution Adjustment and any related Seller Related Assets shall remain the property of the Issuer. From and after the day on which any Seller Noncomplying Asset Adjustment is made, any collections received by the Issuer that are identified as proceeds of the Seller Receivables that gave rise to such Noncomplying Asset Adjustment and any Seller Related Property with respect to such Receivable shall be promptly returned to the Seller. The Issuer hereby directs the Seller to deposit all such Seller Adjustments directly into the Collection Account.”

(d) The Seller shall pay to the Issuer in cash, on the date of receipt by the Seller, any payment received by the Seller in respect of “Originator Adjustments” under Section 4.3 of the Purchase Agreement.

The proceeds of the sales hereunder will not be used, directly or indirectly, to purchase or carry margin stock or to extend credit to others for such purposes.

(i) Taxes. The Seller has filed (or there have been filed on its behalf as a member of a consolidated group) all tax returns and reports required by law to have been filed by it and has paid all taxes, assessments and governmental charges thereby shown to be owing by it, other than any such taxes, assessments or charges that are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been set aside on its books and that have not given rise to any Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

(iii) Immediately prior to the sale of a KF Purchased Asset hereunder on such date, no effective financing statement or other instrument similar in effect that covers all or part of any KF Purchased Asset or any interest therein is on file in any recording office except such as may be filed (A) in favor of Cartus in accordance with the Pool Relocation Management Agreements, (B) in favor of the Seller in accordance with the CRC Purchase Agreement, (C) in favor of the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement, (D) in favor of the Issuer’s successors and assigns pursuant to the Servicing Agreement or the Indenture or otherwise filed by or at the direction of the Issuer’s successors and assigns or (E) to evidence any Mortgage on a Cartus Home or CRC Home created by a Transferred Employee.

(iv) The Receivables Purchase Price constitutes reasonably equivalent value for the KF Purchased Assets conveyed in consideration therefor on such date, and no purchase of an interest in such KF Purchased Assets by the Issuer from the Seller constitutes a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance under the United States

 

9

Neither the Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate that is a subsidiary of Realogy is, or at any time during the past five years was, a member of, or makes, or has at any time during the past five years made, contributions to, any Multiemployer Plan. No ERISA Affiliate that is not a subsidiary of Realogy is, or at any time during the past five years was, a member of, or makes, or has at any time during the past five years made, contributions to, any Multiemployer Plan, in each case where any such action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

INDEMNIFICATION; SECURITY INTEREST

Section 10.1 Indemnities by the Seller. Without limiting any other rights that any CRC Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller agrees to indemnify the Issuer and each of its successors, permitted transferees and assigns, and all officers, directors, shareholders, controlling Persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing Persons, a “CRC Indemnified Party”), from and against any and all damages, losses, claims (whether on account of settlements or otherwise), actions, suits, demands, judgments, liabilities (including penalties), obligations or disbursements of any kind or nature and related costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) awarded against or incurred by any of them, arising out of or as a result of any of the following (all of the foregoing, collectively, “CRC Indemnified Losses”):

(a) any representation or warranty made by the Seller under any of the Transaction Documents, or any information or report delivered by the Seller with respect to the Seller or the KF Purchased Assets, having been untrue or incorrect in any respect when made or deemed to have been made;

 

23


(b) the failure by the Seller to comply with any material applicable Requirement of Law with respect to any KF Purchased Asset or any failure of a KF Purchased Asset to comply with any such material Requirement of Law as of the date of the sale of such KF Purchased Asset hereunder;

(c) the failure to vest and maintain in the Issuer a valid ownership or security interest in the KF Purchased Assets, free and clear of any Lien arising through or under it (including without limitation any such failure arising from a circumstance described in the definition of Permitted Exceptions);

(d) any failure of the Seller to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Documents or any Contract, in each case to which it is a party;

(e) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other applicable laws with respect to the transfer of any KF Purchased Assets to the Issuer, whether at the time of any sale or at any subsequent time;

(f) the failure by the Seller to pay when due any taxes owing by it (including without limitation sales, excise or property taxes) payable in connection with the KF Purchased Assets, other than any such taxes, assessments or charges that are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP have been set aside on its books and that have not given rise to any Liens (other than Permitted Liens);

(g) any reduction in the Unpaid Balance of any CRC Receivable included in the KF Purchased Assets as a result of any Concession made by the Seller or for which the Seller is entitled to be indemnified under the CRC Purchase Agreement;

(h) any product liability, strict liability or personal injury claim in connection with the service (other than services provided by the Issuer or its assignees) that is the subject of any CRC Receivable or CRC Related Property; and

(i) any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to any use by the Seller of the proceeds of any Purchase made hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing (and with respect to clause (ii) below, without prejudice to the rights that the Issuer may have pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement or the provisions of any of the other Transaction Documents), in no event shall any CRC Indemnified Party be indemnified for any CRC Indemnified Losses (i) resulting from negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such CRC Indemnified Party, (ii) to the extent the same includes losses in respect of KF Purchased Assets and reimbursement therefor that would constitute credit recourse to the Seller for the amount of any KF Purchased Asset not paid by the related Obligor or (iii) resulting from the action or omission of the Servicer.

If for any reason the indemnification provided in this Section 10.1 is unavailable to a CRC Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold a CRC Indemnified Party harmless, then

 

24


the Seller shall contribute to the maximum amount payable or paid to such CRC Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such CRC Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Seller on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such CRC Indemnified Party and the Seller, and any other relevant equitable considerations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any representations, warranties and covenants made by the Seller in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents that are qualified by or limited to events or circumstances that have, or are reasonably likely to have, given rise to a Material Adverse Effect shall (solely for purposes of the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 10.1) be deemed not to be so qualified or limited.

The Issuer acknowledges that, in the event that the Seller does not have available funds to pay any indemnified amounts owing under this Article X, the excess of the amounts due under this Article X over such funds shall not constitute a “claim” under Section 101(5) of the federal Bankruptcy Code against the Seller until such time as the Seller has such funds; provided, that nothing in this paragraph shall limit the obligations of the Seller or the rights of the Issuer as assignee of the Seller to enforce any claims that may be owing to the Seller under the CRC Purchase Agreement.

Section 10.2 Security Interest. Without prejudice to the provisions of Section 2.1 providing for the absolute transfer of the Seller’s interest in the KF Purchased Assets and the proceeds thereof to the Issuer in order to secure the prompt payment and performance of all obligations of the Seller to the Issuer and the Issuer’s assignees arising in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent, the Seller hereby assigns and grants to the Issuer a first priority security interest in the Seller’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, if any, in, to and under all of the KF Purchased Assets and the proceeds thereof.
