Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1996
(1) General
-------
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the summary
of significant accounting policies and notes thereto included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The information furnished is
unaudited but reflects all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring
accruals which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a
fair statement of the results for these interim periods. Interim results
are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full year.
(2) Long-Term Debt
--------------
During April 1996, the Company executed amendments to the August 1993
Financing and Security Agreement ("Credit Facility") eliminating the $60
million fixed rate portion and increasing the amount of borrowings the
Company may allocate to LIBOR tranches up to $165 million. The amount of
the Credit Facility remained at $175 million, with the interest rate on the
remaining $10 million at prime. The amendment also extended the maturity
date of the Credit Facility to April 1, 1998. In addition, during April
1996, the Company entered into an agreement for a $75 million receivable
securitization whereby a portion of trade receivables are pledged to a
third party as collateral, increasing its financing capability to $250
million. The interest rate applicable to the receivable securitization is
based upon the bank's commercial paper rate plus 55 basis points, and
matures on April 1, 1998, subject to certain conditions.
(3) Contingencies
-------------
The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in
the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations, taken
as a whole.
(3) Reclassifications
-----------------
Certain amounts in the 1995 condensed consolidated financial statements
have been reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation, the most
significant of which is the reclassification of direct expenses related to
the service business from operating expense to cost of goods sold.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Product revenue, which is primarily derived from the sale of personal
computer hardware, software and peripherals to corporate customers, increased
25% to $378.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, compared to $302.4
million in 1995. This increase in product revenue reflects higher demand for
personal computers, particularly related to the current Pentium upgrade cycle
occurring in large corporations, as well as increased demand for laptops. Also
favorably impacting the Company's net product revenue was corporate customers
continuing to consolidate the number of suppliers to only one or two. Product
demand has continued to be strong into the second quarter of 1996.
Product gross margin as a percentage of product net revenues for the first
quarter 1996 was 10.1%, down from 10.5% from the same period in 1995. This
decrease is principally due to increased pricing pressures from competition.
Future product margins will be influenced by manufacturers' pricing strategies
together with competitive pressures from other resellers in the industry.
Service revenue for the first quarter 1996 increased 67% to $32.9 million
compared to $19.7 million in 1995. Service revenue is primarily derived from
systems integration services, including product configuration, field
engineering, network management, help desk services and network project
management. Service revenue reflects revenue generated by the actual
performance of specific services and does not include product sales associated
with service projects. The increase in service revenue reflects the Company's
continued focus on expanding its network and technology services at competitive
prices as well as the impact of various small service acquisitions which
occurred after the first quarter of 1995. Although the Company anticipates
service revenue growth in the second quarter of 1996, the Company expects such
growth will be at a slower pace when compared to the first quarter of 1996.
Service gross margin as a percentage of service net revenue for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 increased to 37.2% in 1996 from 28.3% in 1995, primarily as
a result of the impact of acquisitions previously mentioned and an increase in
higher-end, higher margin services performed for customers.
As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 increased to 9.4% compared to 8.8% in 1995, to support the
continued revenue growth and expansion of the service business. Service
expense, which increased both as a percentage of net revenues and in absolute
dollars, primarily reflects costs related to the infrastructure built in 1995
necessary to manage and expand the service business and the investment in
development of certain aspects of the service business which should enable the
Company to increase its service offerings. Selling expense, as a percentage of
net revenues, for the first quarter 1996 decreased when compared to 1995
primarily as a result of continued improvement in product sales productivity.
General and administrative expense, as a percentage of net revenue, increased
from 2.5% to 2.7% primarily due to the continued investment in the Company's
information system resources required to enhance customer satisfaction,
particularly in the service business. The Company's operating expenses are
reported net of reimbursements by certain manufacturers for specific training,
promotional and marketing programs. These reimbursements offset the expenses
incurred by the Company.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased in absolute dollars but
remained constant as a percentage of net revenue for the first quarter 1996.
The dollar increase reflects amortization expense associated with the Company's
recent acquisitions, as well as increased depreciation expense related to fixed
asset purchases in 1996 and 1995.
Interest expense decreased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1996, due to a lower effective
interest rate and the conversion in October 1995 of the Company's $18.5 million
9% Convertible Subordinated Notes ("Notes"), which were converted into 8.4
million shares of the Company's common stock. The conversion of the Notes will
save interest expense of almost $1.7 million annually.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
As a result of the factors discussed above, net earnings for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 increased 50% to $5.8 million from the same period
in 1995. Future improved profitability will depend on the Company's ability to
retain and hire quality service personnel, increased focus on providing
technical service and support to customers, competition, manufacturer product
pricing changes, as well as the Company's control of operating expenses, product
availability, and effective utilization of vendor programs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
During recent years, the Company has utilized operating earnings, the bank
credit facility, equity financing and long-term subordinated notes to fund its
significant revenue growth and related operating asset requirements. At March
31, 1996 approximately $136 million of the bank credit facility was outstanding,
with an additional $39 million available for borrowing. During April 1996, the
Company executed amendments to the August 1993 Financing and Security Agreement
("Credit Facility") eliminating the $60 million fixed rate portion and
increasing the amount of borrowings the Company may allocate to LIBOR tranches
up to $165 million. The amount of the Credit Facility remained at $175 million,
with the interest rate on the remaining $10 million at prime. The amendment also
extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility to April 1, 1998. In addition,
during April 1996, the Company entered into an agreement for a $75 million
receivable securitization, whereby a portion of trade receivables are pledged to
a third party as collateral, increasing its financing capability to $250
million. The interest rate applicable to the receivable securitization is based
upon the bank's commercial paper rate plus 55 basis points, and matures on April
1, 1998, subject to certain conditions.
Working capital at March 31, 1996 is $250 million compared to $225 million
at December 31, 1995 resulting in an increase in the working capital ratio from
1.9 to 2.0. The increase in working capital was principally due to higher
levels of inventory allocated to specific customers, partially offset by a
corresponding increase in accounts payable.
The business is not capital asset intensive, and capital expenditures in
any year normally would not be significant in relation to total assets. Capital
asset requirements are generally funded through internally generated funds, the
bank credit facility or leasing sources. Capital expenditures are expected to
be approximately $7 million in 1996, of which approximately $1.4 million was
spent during the first quarter. There are no material capital asset purchase
commitments at March 31, 1996.

insolvency proceeding, by or against Pledgor under the United States Bankruptcy
Code or any other applicable law; or (f) any repudiation by Pledgor, or
impairment of, Secured Party's rights under this Agreement.
8. Remedies. Should any Event of Default occur, and during the
continuation thereof, Secured Party may from time to time in its discretion,
without limitation and without notice except as expressly provided in any of the
NationsBank Security Agreement take any of the following actions, provided,
however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary otherwise contained
herein or otherwise in any of the Loan Documents, Lender's exercise of any
remedy to foreclose, sell or otherwise dispose of the Pledged Shares shall be
additionally conditioned upon termination of the RPA and the TAA, respectively:
(a) exercise in respect of the Collateral all the rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Code; (b) reduce its claim to judgment or foreclose or
otherwise enforce, in whole or in part, the security interest, pledge and lien
granted hereunder by any available judicial procedure; (c) sell or otherwise
dispose of, at Secured Party's office, or on the premises of Pledgor, or
elsewhere, the Collateral, in whole or in part, by public or private
proceedings, and by way of one or more contracts (it being agreed that the sale
or other disposition of any part of the Collateral shall not exhaust Secured
Party's power of sale, but sales or other dispositions may be made from time to
time until all of the Collateral has been sold or disposed of or until the
Obligations have been paid and performed in full); (d) buy the Collateral, or
any portion thereof, at any public sale; (e) buy the Collateral, or any portion
thereof, at any private sale if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in
a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed
standard price quotations; or (f) apply for the appointment of a receiver for
the Collateral. Pledgor agrees that in the event Pledgor is entitled to receive
any notice of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral, notice shall be
deemed reasonable if deposited in the United States Mail, postage prepaid, or
courier delivered or telecopied, addressed to Pledgor's address for notice
specified herein, five (5) days prior to the date of any public sale, or the
date after which a private sale, of any of such Collateral is to be held.
Secured Party shall not be obligated to proceed with any such sale, regardless
of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party may adjourn any public or
private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed
therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and
place to which it was so adjourned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party
shall not pledge the Collateral to any person without the prior written consent
of Pledgor.
9. Disposition of the Collateral Upon Default. In exercising any
remedies of sale or disposition allowed by paragraph 8, Pledgor recognizes that
Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the
securities pledged as Collateral because of restrictions in applicable federal
and state securities laws and that Secured Party may determine to make one or
more private sales of any such securities to a restricted group of purchasers
who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities
for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or
resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges that each such private sale may be at
prices and other terms less favorable than what might have been obtained at a
public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that each such private
sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and
that Secured Party shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any such
securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer to register
such securities for public sale under any federal or state securities laws.
Pledgor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such securities
which has been made privately in the manner described above to not less than
five (5) bona fide offerees shall be deemed to involve a "public sale" for the
purposes of Section 9.504(c) of the Code, notwithstanding that such sale may not
constitute a "public offering" under any federal or state securities laws and
that Secured Party may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities.
Any purchaser at a sale conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall
hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of
the Pledgor. Each and every purchaser of any of the Collateral shall be vested
with all shareholder's ownership rights including, without limitation, all
voting, dividend and distribution rights. Pledgor agrees that Secured Party may
purchase the Collateral or any part thereof at any sale conducted in good faith
in accordance herewith provided that at least five (5) days prior notice of such
sale has been furnished to Pledgor. Secured Party acknowledges that its right
to exercise any remedies of sale or disposition of the Pledged Shares is
expressly conditioned as provided by paragraph 8.

10. Interest Payments and Collateral Substitution. Upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default, all rights, if any, of Pledgor to receive and retain
interest payments, dividends and other distributions on the Collateral shall
automatically be suspended, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested
with Secured Party, until such time as may be agreed otherwise by Secured Party
in writing. All interest payments, dividends or other distributions which may
be received by Pledgor at any time when the receipt of same by Pledgor is
prohibited by this Agreement shall be received by Pledgor and held in trust for
the benefit of Secured Party and shall be segregated from other property of
Pledgor and forthwith delivered to Secured Party in the form received (properly
endorsed or assigned if requested by Secured Party), to be held by Secured Party
as Collateral.
11. Indemnity. Pledgor hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold harmless
---------
each of Secured Party and its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents
and representatives (each an "Indemnified Person") from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, claims, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
(collectively, the "Claims") which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against, any Indemnified Person (whether or not caused by any Indemnified
Person's ordinary negligence) arising in connection with this Agreement or the
Collateral (including without limitation, the enforcement of this Agreement and
defense of any Indemnified Person's actions and/or inactions in connection with
this Agreement), except to the limited extent the Claims against an Indemnified
Person are caused by such Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. If Pledgor or any third party ever alleges such gross negligence or
willful misconduct by any Indemnified Person, the indemnification provided for
in this paragraph shall nonetheless be paid upon demand, subject to later
adjustment or reimbursement, until such time as a court of competent
jurisdiction enters a final judgment as to the extent and effect of the alleged
gross negligence or willful misconduct. The indemnification provided for in
this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall extend
and continue to benefit each individual or entity who is or has at any time been
an Indemnified Person hereunder. It is agreed that Secured Party shall have no
obligation to take necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties, if
any.
12. Costs and Expenses. Pledgor will upon demand pay to Secured Party the
amount of any and all costs, fees and expenses (including without limitation,
attorneys' fees and expenses), which Secured Party may reasonably incur in
connection with the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of,
collection from, or other realization upon, the Collateral, or the exercise or
enforcement of any of the rights of Secured Party under this Agreement.
13. No Commitment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an
obligation on the part of Secured Party to extend or continue to extend credit
for the benefit of Pledgor other than as expressly provided by the NationsBank
Security Agreement.
14. Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all notices,
requests, demands or other communications required or permitted to be given
pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and given by (i) personal
delivery, (ii) telecopy or other electronic transmission, (iii) expedited
delivery service with proof of delivery, or (iii) mail, postage prepaid,
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, sent to the intended
addressee at the address set forth below or to such different address as the
addressee shall have designated by written notice sent pursuant to the terms
hereof and shall be deemed to have been received either, in the case of personal
delivery or telecopy or other electronic transmission, at the time of receipt,
or in the case of expedited delivery service, as of the date of first attempted
delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or in the case of
mail, upon deposit in a depository receptacle under the care and custody of the
appropriate postal authority.
Secured Party: As specified for NationsBank by the NationsBank Security
-------------
Agreement.
Pledgor: As specified by the NationsBank Security Agreement.
-------
Either party shall have the right to change its address for notice hereunder to
any other address by notice to the other party of such new address at least
thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such new address.
15. Waivers. In connection with all matters pertaining to this Agreement,
Pledgor hereby waives: (1) notice of acceptance hereof; (2) notice of
presentment for payment, demand, protest and notice thereof, notice of intention
to accelerate and notice of acceleration as to any promissory notes or other
instruments from time to time evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof,
except to the extent, if any, specifically provided otherwise by the NationsBank
Security Agreement; (3) all other notices (except if such notice is specifically
required to be given to Pledgor hereunder) and demands to which Pledgor might
otherwise be entitled, except to the extent, if any, specifically provided
otherwise by the NationsBank Security Agreement; (4) any rights to assert
against Secured Party any defense (legal or equitable), set-off, counterclaim or
claim which Pledgor may now or at any time hereafter have against any other
party liable to Secured Party; (5) any defense, set-off, counterclaim or claim
of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future
lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity or enforceability of the Obligations
or any security therefor; and (6) any right or defense arising by reason of any
claim or defense based upon election of remedies by Secured Party.
16. Non-impairment; Non-waiver. The lien, security interest and other
security rights of Secured Party hereunder shall not be impaired by (i) any
renewal, extension, increase or modification with respect to the Obligations,
(ii) any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or
4
<PAGE>
substitution which Secured Party may grant with respect to the Collateral, or
(iii) any release or indulgence granted to Pledgor or any endorser, guarantor or
surety of the Obligations. The taking of additional security by Secured Party
shall not release or impair the lien, security interest or other security rights
of Secured Party hereunder or affect the obligations of Pledgor hereunder.
Secured Party may waive any Event of Default without waiving any other prior or
subsequent Event of Default. Secured Party may remedy any default without
waiving the Event of Default remedied. Neither the failure by Secured Party to
exercise, nor the delay by Secured Party in exercising, any right or remedy upon
any Event of Default shall be construed as a waiver of such Event of Default or
as a waiver of the right to exercise any such right or remedy at a later date.
No single or partial exercise by Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder
shall exhaust the same or shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof,
and every such right or remedy hereunder may be exercised at any time. No
waiver of any provision hereof nor consent to any departure by Pledgor therefrom
shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Secured
Party and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instances, for the purpose for which given and to the extent therein specified.
No notice to nor demand on Pledgor in any case shall of itself entitle Pledgor
to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
Pledgor consents and agrees that, without notice to or by Pledgor and without
affecting or impairing the obligations of Pledgor hereunder, Secured Party may,
by action or inaction: (a) compromise, settle, extend the duration or the time
for the payment of, or discharge the performance of, or may refuse to or
otherwise not enforce the NationsBank Security Agreement; (b) release all or any
one or more parties to the NationsBank Security Agreement or grant other
indulgences to Pledgor in respect thereof; (c) amend or modify in any manner and
at any time (or from time to time) the NationsBank Security Agreement; or (d)
release or substitute any Person from time to time liable on the Obligations, or
any portion thereof, or enforce, exchange, release or waive any security for the
Obligations or any other guaranty of the Obligations, or any portion thereof.
17. Noncontravention. Execution, delivery and performance by Pledgor of
this Agreement does not, and will not, violate or contravene any provision of
Pledgor's corporate charter or bylaws or any other agreement governing or
affecting Pledgor.
18. No Election. Secured Party shall have the right to seek recourse
under this Agreement to the fullest extent provided for herein, and no election
by Secured Party to proceed in one form or action or proceeding, or against any
party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Secured Party's right
to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties
unless Secured Party has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically,
but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by
Secured Party under any document or instrument evidencing the Obligations shall
serve to diminish the liability of Pledgor under this Agreement except to the
extent that Secured Party finally and unconditionally shall have realized
indefeasible payment by such action or proceeding.
19. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding on Pledgor
and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Secured Party
and its successors and assigns. Secured Party's rights under this Agreement may
be transferred in connection with any transfer of the Obligations, or any part
thereof, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by the NationsBank Security
Agreement. Pledgor's rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned or
otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of Secured Party.
20. Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder
are cumulative of each other and of every other right or remedy which Secured
Party may otherwise have at law or in equity or under the NationsBank Security
Agreement, and the exercise of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not
prejudice or impair the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other rights or
remedies.
21. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present
or future laws, such provision shall be fully severable, shall not impair or
invalidate the remainder of this Agreement and the effect thereof shall be
confined to the provision held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable.
22. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of
Secured Party and Pledgor with respect to the Collateral, and may not be
modified or amended except in writing signed by all parties.
23. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF TEXAS.
24. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT NO PARTY SHALL
REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION BETWEEN THEM CONCERNING THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY CLAIMS OR TRANSACTIONS IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, IN EITHER A
STATE OR FEDERAL COURT, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY BEING EXPRESSLY WAIVED. THE
PARTIES EACH ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SUCH WAIVER IS MADE WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE AND
UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATURE OF THE RIGHTS AND BENEFITS WAIVED HEREBY, AND WITH
THE BENEFIT OF ADVICE OF COUNSEL OF ITS CHOOSING.
THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR

Recitals
--------
CompuCom and NationsBank are parties to the NationsBank FSA which provides
for a credit facility for loans by NationsBank to CompuCom, from time to
time, secured by (among other collateral) all of CompuCom's Receivables now
owned and hereafter acquired, on the terms provided therein.
CFI is a special purpose, bankruptcy remote, wholly owned subsidiary of
CompuCom, formed and operating for the sole purpose of entering into and
performing (i) this Agreement, (ii) the RPA, pursuant to which CompuCom
will sell to CFI and CFI will purchase from CompuCom, from time to time,
the RPA Interest, (iii) the TAA, pursuant to which CFI will transfer to EFC
and EFC will accept from CFI, from time to time, a portion of the RPA
Interest, and (iv) various related agreements.
CompuCom, NationsBank, CFI and EFC wish to establish a means by which
CompuCom may utilize its Receivables to access working capital sources via
both the NationsBank FSA and the RPA, as CompuCom shall determine in
accordance with this Agreement, the NationsBank FSA and the RPA, and
contemporaneous means by which the interests of the Beneficial Secured
Parties may be administered on terms, and in a manner, mutually agreeable
to Administrative Secured Party, CompuCom and the Beneficial Secured
Parties.
CompuCom and CFI intend that the transaction contemplated by the RPA create
an absolute transfer to CFI from CompuCom of the RPA Interest in effect
from time to time. In that regard, CFI has entered into this Agreement to
provide a means for administration of the Receivables, the Related Security
and Collections
7
<PAGE>
in a manner consistent with its rights therein and the rights of
NationsBank therein. This agreement provides for the grant by CompuCom to
Administrative Secured Party, for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured
Parties as provided herein, of a security interest in the Collateral as a
whole (and not just the portion thereof as might separately secure the
NationsBank Secured Obligations) because CFI has requested that, in the
event of any possible recharacterization by a court of competent
jurisdiction of the transactions contemplated by the RPA not as an absolute
transfer to CFI of the RPA Interest but rather as a financing (despite the
expressed intent of CompuCom and CFI), CFI have the equivalent benefit of a
security interest in that portion of the Receivables, the Related Security
and the Collections as might separately secure the payment to CFI of any
loan deemed to have been made to CompuCom by CFI pursuant to any such
recharacterization. As a means to address administrative impracticabilities
caused by the nature of trade accounts receivable and intercreditor matters
regarding the rights of NationsBank on the one hand and CFI on the other,
this Agreement provides for the grant by CompuCom to Administrative Secured
Party, for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured Parties, of a security
interest in all of the Receivables, the Related Security and the
Collections, to secure both the CFI Secured Obligations and the NationsBank
Secured Obligations as well as to provide for the administration of the
Collateral in a manner which is acceptable to all parties, consistent with
CFI's rights therein and the rights of NationsBank therein.
Therefore, the undersigned parties have determined to enter into certain
agreements and arrangements according to the terms and provisions as set
forth hereinbelow.
THEREFORE, for value received and other valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of the mutual
benefits provided herein, the undersigned parties hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST;
APPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTRATOR; COLLATERAL COVENANTS
1.1 Security Interest.
a. Grant of Security Interest. CompuCom hereby grants to
--------------------------
Administrative Secured Party, for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured
Parties according to their respective Pro Rata Percentages, a continuing
security interest, collateral assignment and lien in and to the Collateral
to secure full payment and performance of the Secured Obligations.
b. Priority. Subject to paragraph 9.3, the security interest,
--------
collateral assignment and lien in the Collateral granted to Administrative
Secured Party for the benefit of Beneficial Secured Parties under this
Agreement at all times shall be and remain first, prior and senior to any
other interests in the Collateral. CompuCom represents to Administrative
Secured Party that no other security interests, liens, financing statements
or other encumbrances exist
8
<PAGE>
or shall be allowed to exist with respect to any of the Collateral, except
the Permitted Subordinated Interests and perfected rights, if any, in
returned inventory in favor of any Person who is a seller of inventory to
CompuCom, existing as of the Effective Date.
1.2 Administrative Secured Party Appointed as Administrator. The
Beneficial Secured Parties hereby appoint Administrative Secured Party as
administrator to collect, receive and administer all Collections, on the
Beneficial Secured Parties' joint behalf, as provided by Article II and in
accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. Until termination of
this Agreement (i) each Beneficial Secured Party irrevocably appoints
Administrative Secured Party as its nominee and attorney in fact with full power
coupled with an interest, to exercise and enforce any and all rights or remedies
in respect of its interests in the Receivables, whether under this Agreement,
the FSA (in the case of NationsBank), the RPA (in the case of CFI), the TAA (in
the case of CFI or EFC), or otherwise. Administrative Secured Party may
exercise or refrain from exercising any and all such rights or remedies as it
may determine in its discretion as provided, and subject to, the provisions of
Article VIII, subject to all other terms of this Agreement, and all Collections
received by Administrative Secured Party in the exercise of any such rights or
remedies shall be deemed received for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured
Parties according to their respective Pro Rata Percentages as of the time of
receipt thereof and administered according to the provisions of Article II and
the other provisions of this Agreement. The rights delegated and appointed to
Administrative Secured Party under this paragraph 1.2 are separate, distinct
and independent of Administrative Secured Party's rights as a secured party
arising under paragraph 1.1(a).
1.3 Receivables. CompuCom hereby represents, warrants and agrees as
follows (such representations, warranties and covenants being deemed made daily
by CompuCom to Administrative Secured Party for the benefit of the Beneficial
Secured Parties until this Agreement has been terminated): (a) CompuCom is the
sole owner of and has full unrestricted power and right to grant to
Administrative Secured Party a continuing security interest, collateral
assignment and pledge of all Receivables free from any lien, security interest
or encumbrance, other than Permitted Subordinated Interests; (b) each Receivable
is in existence, unconditional and valid, and arose from a bona fide outright
sale of inventory or performance of services in the ordinary course of business,
for liquidated amounts and maturing as set forth on its face and such inventory
has been shipped to, or such services have been performed for, the respective
Account Debtors; (c) no Receivable is or will be subject to any sale,
assignment, claim or security interest of any character, other than the
Permitted Subordinated Interests, and CompuCom will not make any sale or other
assignment thereof or create any other security interest therein; (d) except as
disclosed to Administrative Secured Party in writing, CompuCom has no knowledge
that any Receivable is subject to any claim for credit, deduction, allowance or
adjustment by an Account Debtor, or to any defense, dispute, setoff or
counterclaim, and no extension or indulgence has been granted by CompuCom with
respect thereto; and (e) CompuCom believes and expects that each Receivable will
be paid in full at maturity. CompuCom represents, warrants and confirms that
the existing security interest in certain inventory previously granted by
CompuCom to each of Apple Computer, Inc. and Compaq Computer Corporation,
respectively, in each case, is limited by agreement such that the security
interest in proceeds of such inventory is limited only to cash proceeds and
insurance proceeds and excludes all other proceeds (CompuCom will endeavor to
deliver to Administrative Secured Party, as soon as reasonably possible
following execution of this Agreement, a written statement from each such
secured party confirming that its security interest in proceeds of such
inventory is so limited,
9
<PAGE>
provided, that any failure or delay in delivering any such statement, in and of
itself, shall not impair the foregoing representation, warranty and confirmation
by CompuCom or Administrative Secured Party's reliance thereon).
1.4. Adjustment and Compromise of Receivables. CompuCom agrees that it
will not settle, adjust, compromise, discharge or extend the time for payment of
any Receivable except in compliance with CompuCom's credit policy and involving
an amount not in excess of $2,000,000.00, without Administrative Secured Party's
consent.
1.5 Books and Records. CompuCom represents and warrants to Administrative
Secured Party that all Books and Records are located at CompuCom's chief
executive office designated for CompuCom in the "Definitions" of this Agreement,
and at such other locations, if any, as may be specified in Exhibit 1.5.
CompuCom agrees that it will not maintain any Books and Records at any location
other than as designated in Exhibit 1.5 unless it gives Administrative Secured
Party at least 30 days prior written notice and first executes such financing
statements and other documents as Administrative Secured Party may request in
connection therewith, provided that, if any such location is a leased location
CompuCom shall first cause each owner or landlord thereof to execute and deliver
to Administrative Secured Party a Collateral Access and Waiver Agreement.
CompuCom shall immediately notify Administrative Secured Party upon receipt of
any notice from any Person claiming past due rent, fees or other charges in
respect of any location where any Books and Records are located. CompuCom will
not deliver possession of any Books and Records to any Person (other than
pursuant to valid judicial process) without the prior written consent of
Administrative Secured Party.
1.6 Perfection and Protection. CompuCom shall perform, at its expense,
all action requested by Administrative Secured Party at any time to perfect,
maintain, protect, and enforce Administrative Secured Party's security interests
in the Collateral, including without limitation executing and filing financing
statements and amendments thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to
Administrative Secured Party; delivering to Administrative Secured Party any
proceeds of Collateral the possession of which is required for continued
perfection of Administrative Secured Party's security interests, duly endorsed
or assigned to Administrative Secured Party without restriction, as may be
required for such purpose; placing notations on books of account to disclose
Administrative Secured Party's security interests; and such other steps as are
deemed necessary by Administrative Secured Party to maintain its security
interests. So long as this Agreement is in effect and until all Secured
Obligations have been fully satisfied, Administrative Secured Party's security
interest and lien hereunder shall continue in full force and effect in all
Collateral.
1.7 Examinations; Inspections. Administrative Secured Party or its
designee shall have the right without hindrance or delay, during normal business
hours and without necessity of prior notice, to examine and inspect the
Collateral. Administrative Secured Party is authorized to discuss CompuCom's
affairs with any employees of CompuCom, as Administrative Secured Party may deem
necessary in relation to the Collateral. CompuCom agrees to pay Administrative
Secured Party's customary fees and disbursements relating to any such
examinations or inspections. Administrative Secured Party shall have full
access to all records available to CompuCom from any credit reporting service,
bureau or similar service and shall have the right to examine and make copies of
any such records. Administrative Secured Party may exhibit a copy of this
Agreement to such service and such
10
<PAGE>
service shall be entitled to rely on the provisions hereof in providing access
to Administrative Secured Party as provided herein.
1.8 Right to Cure. Administrative Secured Party in its sole discretion
may pay any amount or take any action in order to preserve, protect and maintain
the Collateral and Administrative Secured Party's security interest therein,
including without limitation, payment of any landlord's claim or other
encumbrance or claim asserted against the Collateral (provided that with respect
to any payment or obligation owing by CompuCom to any Person other than
Administrative Party, CompuCom shall have first had the opportunity to make any
such payment or perform any such obligation). All such payments and all out-of-
pocket costs and expenses made or incurred by Administrative Secured Party shall
be payable by CompuCom to Administrative Secured Party on demand. Any payment
made or other action taken by Administrative Secured Party under this paragraph
shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or
exercise any other remedy hereunder.
1.9 Preservation of Rights. To the extent allowed by law, neither
Administrative Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees, and
agents shall be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any
Collateral or for any act or failure to act with respect to the Collateral, or
for any loss or damage thereto or any diminution in the value thereof, or for
any act by any other Person. In the case of any instruments and chattel paper
included within any proceeds of the Collateral, Administrative Secured Party
shall have no duty or obligation to preserve rights against prior parties. The
Secured Obligations shall not be affected by any failure of Administrative
Secured Party to take any steps to perfect its security interests or to collect
or realize upon the Collateral, nor shall loss of or damage to the Collateral
release CompuCom from any of the Secured Obligations. Unless otherwise
expressly agreed by Administrative Secured Party and the Beneficial Secured
Parties, no (i) modification or amendment of the terms of any Administration
Documents, (ii) compromise, forbearance or grant of renewals, extensions,
indulgences or releases with respect to any Administration Documents, the
Collateral or the Secured Obligations or (iii) other action with respect to the
Collateral or any Person directly or indirectly obligated in connection
therewith shall impair the Secured Obligations, or Administrative Secured
Party's or the Beneficial Secured Parties' interests in the Collateral or any
rights under the Administration Documents.
1.10 Special Rights; Power of Attorney. CompuCom hereby irrevocably
appoints Administrative Secured Party as CompuCom's agent and attorney-in-fact,
for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured Parties, from time to time in
Administrative Secured Party's discretion, to take any action necessary to
preserve and protect the Collateral and Administrative Secured Party's interests
under the Administration Documents. CompuCom hereby authorizes and appoints
Administrative Secured Party as attorney in fact to sign and file any financing
statement or other document necessary to perfect Administrative Secured Party's
security interest in the Collateral. Administrative Secured Party shall have
the right at any time to take any of the following actions, in its own name or
in the name of CompuCom, whether or not an Event of Default is in existence:
(i) make written or verbal requests for verification of amounts owing on
Receivables from any or all Persons which Administrative Secured Party believes

relating to the Receivables or other Collateral to which CompuCom has access;
and (ix) take all other action allowed by law as may be necessary to carry out
the Administration Documents and give effect to Administrative Secured Party's
rights thereunder. In addition, Administrative Secured Party shall have the
right to take any of the following actions, in its own name or in the name of
CompuCom, at any time when any Event of Default is in existence, whether or not
Administrative Secured Party has taken any action to exercise any remedies under
the Administration Documents: (x) notify any Person which Administrative Secured
Party believes may be an Account Debtor to make payments directly to
Administrative Secured Party; (xi) settle, adjust, compromise or discharge
Receivables or extend time of payment upon such terms as Administrative Secured
Party may determine; (xii) take action in Administrative Secured Party's name or
CompuCom's name to enforce collection of Receivables; (xiii) open mail addressed
to CompuCom to take possession of and dispose of checks or other proceeds of
Receivables in accordance with this Agreement; and (xiv) direct the U.S. Postal
service to change the address to which CompuCom's mail is delivered. Should
Administrative Secured Party at any time elect to exercise its right of
verification or notification with respect to the Receivables as provided in

have the right in its sole discretion to direct such request for verification,
or notification, as the case may be, to all Persons which Administrative Secured
Party believes may have transacted business with CompuCom at any time, whether
or not such Persons are then indebted to CompuCom, and Administrative Secured
Party is hereby released and discharged from any liability by reason of any such
request for verification or notification. Costs and expenses incurred by
Administrative Secured Party in connection with any of such actions by
Administrative Secured Party, including reasonable attorneys' fees and out-of-
pocket expenses, shall be reimbursed by CompuCom to Administrative Secured Party
on demand.

Account and will cause all invoices evidencing Receivables to be noted with
a legend stating that payment thereon is to be made to CompuCom at the
Lockbox or a designated Agency Account. CompuCom will cause all
Collections to be delivered to the Lockbox or an Agency Account, or
otherwise delivered directly to Administrative Secured Party for deposit to
the Concentration Account (provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing,
CompuCom may allow any Account Debtor to make payment on any Receivable by

12
<PAGE>
available cash equivalent by deposit directly to the Concentration Account,
for the account of CompuCom, with contemporaneous notice thereof to

and the Beneficial Secured Parties, all deposits to the Concentration

as follows (subject to prior payment of Secured Obligations due and payable
by CompuCom to Administrative Secured Party as provided by the
Administration Documents):
(1) A percentage of each dollar thereof equal to the RPA
Interest Percentage as of the time of disbursement shall be deposited

Interest Percentage as of the time of disbursement shall be deposited
to the NationsBank Account.
(d) All Collections at all times shall be subject to an express trust
in favor of Administrative Secured Party for the benefit of the Beneficial

exercise dominion over any Collections. CompuCom agrees that it will not
commingle proceeds of Collections with any other funds, and that no
deposits will be made to the Lockbox, any Agency Account or the
Concentration Account other than Collections. All amounts from time to
time deposited to the Lockbox, any Agency Account or the Concentration
Account are for the benefit of the Beneficial Secured Parties and shall
remain subject to Administrative Secured Party's interests under this
Agreement.
2.2 Certification of RPA Interest and CompuCom Interest.

---------------------
shall deliver to Administrative Secured Party an Ownership Certification,
dated effective as of a specified Business Day (which shall be on or after
the date of delivery thereof) therein certifying the RPA Interest
Percentage and the CompuCom Interest Percentage, respectively, as of such

Certification, the RPA Interest Percentage and the CompuCom Interest
Percentage each shall be deemed to be as specified in such Ownership
Certification, and Administrative Secured Party shall be entitled to rely
thereon in connection with its administration of this Agreement until such
time, if any, as any subsequent Ownership Certification is actually
delivered to Administrative Secured Party and becomes effective as provided
in paragraph 2.2(b).
(b) After the Effective Date. Subject to at least two Business Days
------------------------
prior written notice to Administrative Secured Party of its intention to do
so, CompuCom may effect a
13
<PAGE>
change in the RPA Interest Percentage and the CompuCom Interest Percentage,
for purposes of this Agreement, by delivering to Administrative Secured
Party an Ownership Certification, dated as of a Business Day subsequent to
expiration of such notice period, therein certifying the RPA Interest
Percentage and the CompuCom Interest Percentage, respectively, as of such
day. Provided that no Event of Default is then in existence and provided
further, that any such change in the CompuCom Interest Percentage and the
RPA Interest Percentage to be effected thereby does not create an Event of
Default, such Ownership Certification shall become effective as of the day
specified therein (which shall be on or after the beginning of the third
Business Day following the Business Day of Administrative Secured Party's
receipt of the foregoing notice), whereupon the RPA Interest Percentage and
the CompuCom Interest Percentage each shall be deemed to be as specified
therein, and Administrative Secured Party shall be entitled to rely thereon
in connection with its administration of this Agreement until such time, if
any, as any subsequent Ownership Certification is actually delivered to
Administrative Secured Party and becomes effective as provided in this
paragraph 2.2(b).
(c) Upon and Following Termination of RPA. Notwithstanding any
-------------------------------------
Ownership Certification, the RPA Interest Percentage in all Receivables
created on or after the effective date of any termination of the RPA
automatically shall be zero percent (0.00%) and the CompuCom Interest
Percentage therein shall be one hundred percent (100.00%). At
Administrative Secured Party's option in its sole discretion,
Administrative Secured Party may cause all Collections received in respect
of Receivables created on or after the effective date of termination of the
RPA to be segregated and deposited to a separate account for collection and
transfer to the NationsBank Account in accordance with paragraph 2.1(c)(2).
It is understood and agreed that the RPA Interest Percentage in effect at
the time of any such termination of the RPA shall remain in effect as to
all Receivables created prior to the effective time of any such termination
of the RPA.
(d) Receivables Subject to Reconveyance. Notwithstanding any
-----------------------------------
Ownership Certification, the RPA Interest Percentage in Receivables, if
any, with respect to which the RPA Interest is reconveyed in full by CFI to
CompuCom pursuant to the RPA, at any time, shall be zero percent (0.0%) and
the CompuCom Percentage Interest therein shall be one hundred percent
(100.0%). CompuCom and CFI shall notify Administrative Secured Party and
NationsBank in writing prior to effecting any such reconveyance, therein
describing the Receivable(s) which are to be the subject thereof. At
Administrative Secured Party's request, CompuCom will assist Administrative
Secured Party in identifying Collections in respect of such Receivables
and, at Administrative Secured Party's option in its discretion,
Administrative Secured Party may cause all Collections at any time received
in respect of such Receivables to be segregated and deposited to a separate
account for collection and transfer to the NationsBank account in
accordance with paragraph 2.1(c)(2).
2.3 Fees.

-----
collection time required for collection of checks and other items
administered under paragraph 2.1(c), CompuCom shall pay to Administrative
Secured Party, for its own account, as of the last day

20
<PAGE>
Agreement, or the taking of any action by any party to this Agreement to

ARTICLE VII. REMEDIES
7.1 Remedies. Should an Event of Default occur at any time,
Administrative Secured Party may at its option take any or all of the following
actions: (a) notify Account Debtors to make all payments on Receivables directly
to Administrative Secured Party at such address as Administrative Secured Party
shall designate; (b) make demand for payment on Account Debtors and take action
(including without limitation, filing suit) to enforce payment of Receivables,
in the name of Administrative Secured Party (on behalf of the Beneficial Secured
Parties) or CompuCom, as Administrative Secured Party shall determine in its
discretion; (c) take any other action to enforce the collection rights of a
secured party under the Texas UCC; and (d) exercise, enforce and avail itself of
any and all other rights or remedies as may be available under this Agreement or
any other Administration Documents or as otherwise may be available under the
Texas UCC or other applicable law. Administrative Secured Party at all times
shall have the collection rights and all other rights and remedies of a secured
party under the Texas UCC, including but not limited to the right to take
possession of Collections and enforce direct payment of Receivables. To the
extent necessary to protect and enforce its rights under the Administration
Documents, Administrative Secured Party is expressly authorized to receive,
open, and dispose of mail addressed to CompuCom and endorse notes, checks,
drafts, money orders, or other evidences of payment, on behalf of and in the
name of CompuCom. Administrative Secured Party may demand, collect, receipt
for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose or otherwise realize upon
the Receivables as Administrative Secured Party may determine in its discretion.
In collecting or pursuing collection of Receivables, Administrative Secured
Party may utilize CompuCom's books and records, premises, telephones,
telecopiers, copiers, and other facilities, or the services of CompuCom's
personnel, at CompuCom's cost and expense, as may be necessary for prompt and
expedient collection. CompuCom agrees that Administrative Secured Party's use
of such facilities or personnel is a commercially reasonable method of pursuing
timely collection and enforcement of Receivables and that, in taking any such
action, Administrative Secured Party is acting solely in its capacity as a
secured party under the Texas UCC and as attorney in fact and administrator, as
provided by this Agreement. Administrative Secured Party may give verbal or
written notice to any Person who Administrative Secured Party reasonably
believes is or may be an Account Debtor on Receivables and thereby demand
payment of all amounts which may be or become due by such Person on Receivables.
In taking possession of any Collateral, Administrative Secured Party is
authorized to enter upon any premises owned or leased by CompuCom where any
Collateral is located. At its option, Administrative Secured Party may require
CompuCom to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Administrative
Secured Party at a place to be designated by Administrative Secured Party which
is reasonably convenient to both Administrative Secured Party and CompuCom.
CompuCom agrees that Administrative Secured Party shall be entitled to collect
or dispose of any Collateral on CompuCom's premises. Unless the Collateral is
perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily
sold on a recognized market, Administrative Secured Party will give CompuCom
reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of
the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof
is to be made. For this purpose, it is agreed that at least five (5) days
notice of the time of sale or other intended disposition of Collateral delivered
in accordance with
21
<PAGE>
paragraph 10.3 shall be deemed to be reasonable notice in conformity with the
Texas UCC. Administrative Secured Party may adjourn or otherwise reschedule any
public sale by announcement at the time and place specified in the notice of
such public sale, and such sale may be made at the time and place as so
announced without necessity of further notice. Administrative Secured Party
shall not be obligated to sell or dispose of any Collateral, or to pursue any
particular manner of collection or disposition, notwithstanding any prior notice
of intended disposition. With respect to any instruments or chattel paper at any
time included within the Collateral, Administrative Secured Party shall not have
any duty or obligation to take steps to preserve rights against prior parties.
7.2 Cash Collateral; Injunctive Relief. All cash proceeds of Collateral
from time to time existing, including without limitation all Collections, at all
times shall be and remain subject to Administrative Secured Party's continuing
security interest, lien and administration under this Agreement, and shall be
subject to an express trust for the benefit of Administrative Secured Party, for
the benefit of the Beneficial Secured Parties. Except as may be specifically
allowed otherwise by this Agreement, CompuCom is expressly prohibited from
using, spending, retaining or otherwise exercising any dominion over such
proceeds, and all such proceeds shall be promptly turned over to Administrative
Secured Party in the form in which they are received by CompuCom, either by
mailing or delivering the same to Administrative Secured Party not later than
the Business Day following receipt thereof by CompuCom. CompuCom acknowledges
and agrees that an action for damages against CompuCom for any breach of the
prohibitions and obligations of this paragraph shall not be an adequate remedy
at law. In the event of any such breach, CompuCom agrees, to the fullest extent
allowed by law, that Administrative Secured Party shall be entitled to
injunctive relief to restrain such breach and require compliance with the
requirements of this Agreement.
7.3 Application of Proceeds; Deficiency. After deducting all costs, fees
and expenses of collection and enforcement for which CompuCom is obligated to
Administrative Secured Party pursuant to the Administration Documents or
applicable law, any remaining Collections or other proceeds of collection, sale
or disposition of the Collateral shall be deposited to the Concentration Account
and administered according to paragraph 2.1(c), and the excess, if any,
remaining after expiration of the Contract Term shall be held or disbursed by
Administrative Secured Party by mutual agreement among CompuCom, Administrative
Secured Party and the Beneficial Secured Parties or, in the absence of such
mutual agreement, in accordance with applicable law. CompuCom expressly agrees
that it shall remain liable for all Secured Obligations, if any, remaining after
liquidation or other disposition of the Collateral (provided, that the foregoing
shall not be construed to create any liability of CompuCom under the RPA except
as expressly provided therein).
7.4 Waiver of Notices. CompuCom expressly waives any notices from
Administrative Secured Party or the Beneficial Secured Parties except as
otherwise expressly provided for and required by this Agreement.
7.5 Setoff. CompuCom irrevocably authorizes Administrative Secured Party
to charge any account of CompuCom maintained with Administrative Secured Party
with such amount as may be necessary from time to time to pay any Secured
Obligations. CompuCom agrees that Administrative Secured Party shall have a
contractual right to setoff any and all deposits or other sums at any time
credited by or due from Administrative Secured Party to CompuCom against any
part of the Secured Obligations. Such right of setoff may be exercised at any
time by Administrative
22
<PAGE>
Secured Party without prior notice, irrespective of whether an Event of Default
exists or whether the Secured Obligations have fully matured. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as the same shall remain in
existence and is not cured or waived, Administrative Secured Party shall be
entitled in its discretion, without prior notice, to hold any such deposits or
other sums (and return checks or other items presented for payment against same,
and otherwise deny access to same) pending acceleration of any Secured
Obligations. All amounts, if any, charged or set off by Administrative Secured
Party against any Collections shall be deposited to the Concentration Account
and administered as provided by paragraph 2.1(c).
7.6 Performance by Administrative Secured Party. Should CompuCom fail to
perform any covenant, duty, or agreement required by the Administration
Documents (including without limitation, payment and discharge of any taxes,
liens or encumbrances affecting or potentially affecting the Collateral)
Administrative Secured Party may in its sole discretion perform or attempt to
perform or cause performance of same on behalf of CompuCom at CompuCom's
reasonable cost and expense, provided that Administrative Secured Party shall
have no obligation or duty to take any such action. CompuCom agrees to
reimburse Administrative Secured Party for such reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses on demand and until paid.
7.7 Non-waiver. Forbearance or indulgence by Administrative Secured Party
of any Event of Default or any other event or condition which is or would be the
subject of a required notice under paragraph 5.10, at any time from time to
time, shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights of Administrative Secured Party
under the Administration Documents. The acceptance by Administrative Secured
Party or the Beneficial Secured Parties, at any time and from time to time, of
any partial payment of the Secured Obligations shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of any Event of Default then existing. No delay or omission by
Administrative Secured Party in exercising any right or remedy shall impair such
right or remedy, or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such rights or remedies preclude other or further
exercise thereof. Administrative Secured Party shall not be required or
obligated to file suit or otherwise pursue any Account Debtor or other Person
for enforcement or collection of any Receivables or to otherwise take any action
to realize upon any of the Collateral.
7.8 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies specified in this Article VII are
cumulative with and in addition to all other rights and remedies provided by
this Agreement and the other Administration Documents, or by applicable law.
ARTICLE VIII. ADMINISTRATION

independent public accountants, and other experts or consultants and shall
not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith in
accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, experts or
consultants, and may rely and act upon any resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter or other document or instrument or writing,
or any telecopy, fax, telegram, telex or teletype, or any court order, or
any conversation, which it believes to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed or made by the proper Person. Administrative Secured Party

Secured Party from any Beneficial Secured Party, and any directive, consent
or refusal of consent given to Administrative Secured Party by any
Beneficial Secured Party, shall be communicated as provided in paragraph
10.3. In the event any consent requested by Administrative Secured Party
is not granted or refused within ten (10) days after it is requested by
Administrative Secured Party, the same shall be deemed to have been
granted.
(e) Limitation of Administrative Secured Party's Liability. Neither
------------------------------------------------------
Administrative Secured Party nor any of its officers, directors, employees,
attorneys or agents shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken in connection with the Administration Documents in conformity with
instructions or consents of any Beneficial Secured Party, or based upon
26
<PAGE>
its belief that such action or inaction is within the discretion or power
conferred to Administrative Secured Party under the Administration
Documents, nor shall Administrative Secured Party or any of such officers,
directors, employees, attorneys or agents be liable for the consequences of
any error of judgment, except for gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
Administrative Secured Party shall not be responsible to the Beneficial
Secured Parties for the due execution, validity, effectiveness,
enforceability, or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the other
Administration Documents, or for any recitals, representations or
warranties, reports, statements contained in the Administration Documents
or furnished in connection therewith, or for the perfection or value of any
Collateral or for any failure by any other Person to perform any
obligations under the Administration Documents. Administrative Secured
Party shall have no liability to any Beneficial Secured Party with respect
to ascertaining or confirming performance or observation by CompuCom of any
terms, covenants or conditions of any Administration Documents.
(f) Expenses. Each Beneficial Secured Party severally agrees to
--------
reimburse Administrative Secured Party promptly upon demand for its Pro
Rata Percentage share of any and all out-of-pocket expenses (including
reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Administrative Secured Party in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement of the Administration Documents, and
legal advice in respect of rights or obligations thereunder (whether in
connection with negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) to the
extent that any such expenses are not paid or reimbursed to Administrative
Secured Party by CompuCom or from other sources within 60 days after
request for payment or reimbursement is made to CompuCom (provided that any
such payment by any Beneficial Secured Party to Administrative Secured
Party shall be without prejudice to the right to contest such Beneficial
Secured Party's obligation to make such payment, and provided further, that
EFC shall make any such reimbursement only to the extent that it has
received sufficient funds from all sellers of accounts to it in excess of
the amount necessary to pay matured and maturing commercial paper). To the
extent any such expenses are recovered by Administrative Secured Party from
CompuCom or other sources after any such amounts have been paid to
Administrative Secured Party by any Beneficial Secured Party(ies), the
amount so recovered shall be refunded by Administrative Secured Party to
each such paying Beneficial Secured Party ratably according to its
respective payments.
(g) Indemnification. Each Beneficial Secured Party hereby severally
---------------
indemnifies, in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage, and holds harmless
Administrative Secured Party from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses and/or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, asserted against, or incurred by Administrative Secured Party
in any way with respect to any Administration Documents (including without
limitation as may arise as a result of any order of a court of competent
jurisdiction pursuant to which Administrative Secured Party is required to
refund, repay or otherwise return any Collections to any other Person) or
any action taken or omitted by Administrative Secured Party under the
Administration Documents, except to the extent the same is caused by gross
negligence or wilful misconduct by Administrative Secured Party (it being
acknowledged that it is the express intention of Administrative Secured
Party and the Beneficial Secured Parties that
27
<PAGE>
such indemnification and hold harmless obligations shall include any such
actions or inactions which are a result of negligence other than gross
negligence), provided, that EFC's obligation to make payment under the
foregoing indemnity is limited to the extent that it has received
sufficient funds from all sellers of accounts to it in excess of the amount
necessary to pay matured and maturing commercial paper). Prior to
compliance with any instructions by the Beneficial Secured Parties under
the Administration Documents, Administrative Secured Party shall be
entitled to request further assurance of any such indemnification in form
satisfactory to Administrative Secured Party, and unless and until such
further assurance is provided to Administrative Secured Party,
Administrative Secured Party shall have no obligation to comply with such
instructions and may disregard same.
(h) Replacement of Administrative Secured Party. Subject to the
-------------------------------------------
following, Administrative Secured Party may resign as Administrative
Secured Party at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to
the Beneficial Secured Parties and CompuCom, and Administrative Secured
Party may be removed upon written notice by unanimous consent of the
Beneficial Secured Parties. Should Administrative Secured Party give any
such notice of its resignation as Administrative Secured Party, or should
the Beneficial Secured Parties give any such notice of removal, then the
Beneficial Secured Parties collectively shall forthwith appoint another
Person, acceptable to them and to CompuCom (such acceptance not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), to become Administrative Secured Party,
whereupon such newly appointed Person shall thereafter be Administrative
Secured Party and CompuCom and the Beneficial Secured Parties shall execute
such documents as any Beneficial Secured Party may reasonably request to
reflect such change. Any resignation or removal of Administrative Secured
Party shall become effective upon the appointment of a successor
Administrative Secured Party (provided, that if the Beneficial Secured
Parties fail for any reason to appoint a successor within sixty (60) days
after written notice of such resignation or removal, Administrative Secured
Party shall thereafter have no obligation to act as Administrative Secured
Party hereunder). Any Person appointed as successor Administrative Secured
Party as provided above shall be deemed to accept such appointment, and
such successor Administrative Secured Party shall thereupon succeed to and
become vested with all rights, powers, privileges, immunities, and duties
of the resigning or removed Administrative Secured Party, and the resigning
or removed Administrative Secured Party shall be discharged from its duties
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Administration
Documents. After any Administrative Secured Party's resignation or removal
as Administrative Secured Party, the provisions of this Article VIII shall
continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Secured Party.
NationsBank has been appointed as Administrative Secured Party, and has
accepted such appointment, subject to the terms of this Agreement, as of
the Effective Date. As of the Effective Date, NationsBank has assigned
administration of its functions as Administrative Secured Party to
NationsBank Business Credit, an unincorporated division of NationsBank, and
at EFC's request hereby agrees that it will not transfer such
administration to any other division unless such division is acceptable to
Beneficial Secured Parties (such acceptance not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed).
(i) Rights of Administrative Secured Party as Beneficial Secured
------------------------------------------------------------
Party. Any Beneficial Secured Party who serves as Administrative Secured
Party shall nonetheless
28
<PAGE>
continue to have the same rights as a Beneficial Secured Party, in its
individual corporate capacity as a Beneficial Secured Party, as any other
Beneficial Secured Party and may exercise the same as though it were not
acting as Administrative Secured Party, and unless the context indicates
otherwise, to the extent that Administrative Secured Party in its
individual capacity is a Beneficial Secured Party, the term "Beneficial
Secured Party" or "Beneficial Secured Parties," wherever used in the
Administration Documents shall include the Administrative Secured Party in
its individual corporate capacity as a Beneficial Secured Party.
(j) Independent Credit Decisions. Each Beneficial Secured Party
----------------------------
represents, warrants and agrees that it has made its own underwriting
analysis of CompuCom and its own evaluation and valuation of the Collateral
and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement independently
and without reliance on Administrative Secured Party or any other
Beneficial Secured Party and based on such documents and information as it
has deemed appropriate. Each Beneficial Secured Party further acknowledges
and agrees that it will continue to make its own analysis and decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other
Administration Documents, independently and without reliance upon
Administrative Secured Party or any other Beneficial Secured Party and
based upon such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at
the time. Each Beneficial Secured Party acknowledges that it shall have no
right to rely upon Administrative Secured Party to inform it of the
financial conditions or creditworthiness of CompuCom or the condition,
value, marketability or other conditions in respect of the Collateral.
Upon written request by any Beneficial Secured Party, Administrative
Secured Party will make any documents, reports or other information
received by Administrative Secured Party from CompuCom and designated in
such request available to such Beneficial Secured Party. Otherwise, except
as specifically provided in this Agreement, Administrative Secured Party
shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Beneficial Secured
Party with any credit or other financial information concerning the
affairs, financial condition or business of CompuCom or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates.
(k) Several Commitments. Administrative Secured Party shall not be
-------------------
liable to CompuCom or any Beneficial Secured Party for any act or omission
by any Beneficial Secured Party, and no Beneficial Secured Party shall be
responsible to CompuCom or any other Beneficial Secured Party for any act
or omission of any other Beneficial Secured Party.
(l) Collection Administration: Lockbox; Agency Accounts. On and after
---------------------------------------------------
the Effective Date and continuing through the end of the Contact Term, for
so long as NationsBank is serving in the capacity as Administrative Secured
Party, it is agreed that (i) the lockbox presently established and
operating in connection with the NationsBank FSA shall be deemed to be the
Lockbox and (ii) each agency account presently established and operating in
connection with the NationsBank FSA shall be deemed to be an Agency
Account, and all Collections during any such period, from time to time,
received or deposited thereto, respectively, shall be deemed to have been
received by Administrative Secured Party solely pursuant, and subject to,
the terms of this Agreement.
29
<PAGE>
(m) Benefits. CompuCom expressly acknowledges and agrees to the
--------
provisions of this Article VIII, provided, that none of the provisions of
this Article shall inure to the benefit of CompuCom or any Person other
than Administrative Secured Party and the Beneficial Secured Parties.
CompuCom shall not be entitled to rely upon, or to raise as a defense, any
failure of Administrative Secured Party or any Beneficial Secured Party to
comply with such provisions. Subject to the requirements of paragraph
8.1(d)1, CompuCom shall be entitled to rely on actions, agreements and
consents of Administrative Secured Party in connection with administering
the Administration Documents as the actions, agreements and consents of all
Beneficial Secured Parties.
ARTICLE IX. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

9.1 Equal Dignity. The rights and interests pertaining to the CompuCom
Interest and the RPA Interest, under this Agreement or otherwise, are of equal

and other proceeds of Receivables at any time received by Administrative Secured

a. As among Administrative Secured Party and the Beneficial Secured
Parties only and subject to paragraph 9.3(e), NationsBank agrees that all
valid and perfected rights and interests pertaining to the CompuCom
Interest and the RPA Interest under this Agreement are and shall be first,
senior and prior to any other rights now or hereafter claimed therein by
NationsBank, whether under the NationsBank FSA or otherwise, and all
security interests, collateral assignments, pledges, liens, mortgages,
rights or other interests now or hereafter claimed by NationsBank with

Party under this Agreement) shall be and hereby are expressly subordinated
and made junior to all such valid and perfected rights and interests
pertaining to the CompuCom Interest and the RPA Interest under this
Agreement.
b. All sales and transfers of the RPA Interest under the RPA are
expressly subject to the interests granted or delegated to Administrative
Secured Party under this Agreement. As among Administrative Secured Party

collateral assignments, pledges, liens, mortgages, rights or other
interests now or hereafter claimed by CFI with respect to the Collateral

assignments, pledges, liens, mortgages, rights or other interests now or
hereafter claimed by EFC (or any assignee of EFC under the TAA) with
respect to the Collateral (other than EFC's interest as a Beneficial

subject to the rights and interests of Administrative Secured Party under
this Agreement. EFC agrees that it will not sell or transfer any portion
of the RPA Interest to any Person (except assignments of EFC's rights

benefit of the Beneficial Secured Parties according to their respective Pro
Rata Percentages and shall be paid forthwith to Administrative Secured
Party, for the account of the Beneficial Secured Parties, for deposit to

irrespective of the time or order of filing of financing statements with
respect thereto, provided, that such subordinations, priorities and
agreements are solely for the respective benefit of Administrative Secured
Party and the Beneficial Secured Parties, as a separate contractual
agreement among themselves only, and shall not in any event operate,
entitle or be construed to allow any other Person (specifically including
without limitation any trustee in bankruptcy) to any rights or priority
over Administrative Secured Party or the Beneficial Secured Parties, or any
of them. The subordinations, priorities and agreements specified in
paragraph 9.3(a), paragraph 9.3(b) and paragraph 9.3(c) shall not be
effective to the extent, if any, that any rights or interests pertaining to

and obligations under this Agreement (provided, that the foregoing shall
not impair any condition or requirement imposed upon CompuCom by any
Beneficial Secured Party pursuant to the FSA, the RPA or the TAA,
respectively).

EFC each agrees, for itself and its successors and assigns, that it will
not take any action to foreclose, repossess, marshal, control, or exercise
remedies or other rights with respect to any Collateral, whether pursuant
to the NationsBank FSA, the RPA or the TAA, respectively, or otherwise
(subject to NationsBank's prior rights in respect of returned inventory
under the FSA as provided in paragraph 9.3(h)), provided, that the
foregoing shall not prohibit or restrict NationsBank, CFI or EFC from
asserting and protecting their respective interests in the Collateral in
any bankruptcy proceeding, subject at all times however, to all other terms
and provisions of this Agreement.
h. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement regarding
rights and relative priorities of interests among Administrative Secured
Party and the Beneficial Secured Parties, it is agreed that all rights and
interests, if any, of Administrative Secured Party, CFI and EFC,

RPA Interest pursuant to the RPA, and any contemporaneous or subsequent

to service, administer and collect the Receivables, subject at all times,
however, to the administration of Collections as provided in Article II and
all other rights, interests and remedies of Administrative Secured Party

conflict therewith, (ii) following the occurrence and during the existence
of any Event of Default, any Person other than CompuCom who is appointed to
service Receivables under the RPA or who is appointed as "Collection Agent"
under the TAA shall be a Person that is acceptable to Administrative

prior written consent of Administrative Secured Party, neither CompuCom,

notify any Account Debtor of CompuCom's transfer to CFI of the RPA Interest
or of CFI's transfer of a portion thereof to EFC.

this Agreement, each of NationsBank, CFI and EFC agrees that, upon request, it
will provide to Administrative Secured Party any information available to it in

consents to the providing of any such information for such purpose.
9.6 Payments by Administrative Secured Party. Administrative Secured
Party shall have no further duty or obligations in respect of any Collections
following administration and transfer thereof in compliance with the
requirements of paragraph 2.1. Each Beneficial Secured Party, severally
according to its respective Pro Rata Percentage, agrees to promptly reimburse
Administrative Secured Party for any checks or items deposited to the
Concentration Account and transferred to such Beneficial Secured Party pursuant
to paragraph 2.1 which are returned unpaid for any reason, provided, that EFC
shall make any such reimbursement only to the extent that it has received
sufficient funds from all sellers of accounts to it in excess of the amount
necessary to pay matured and maturing commercial paper. In the event EFC, CFI,
or any Person claiming through or under either of them, including any assignee
under the TAA, at any time makes demand upon Administrative Secured Party for
payment of any amount in respect of Collections relative to the RPA Interest,
Administrative Secured Party shall be fully protected in depositing such amount
to the CFI Account or, at Administrative Secured Party's option in its sole
discretion, making such payment jointly payable to CFI and any such claimant and

instances, Administrative Secured Party shall be fully released and discharged
from further duty or obligation in respect of such amount.

amendment in any jurisdiction deemed necessary by Administrative Secured Party
to perfect Administrative Secured Party's interests under this Agreement. A
carbon, photographic or other reproduction, including photocopy, telecopy or
electronic transmission, of this Agreement or any financing statement shall be
sufficient as a financing statement and may be filed as an original.
10.14 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all documents and instruments
executed in connection herewith, shall be governed by and construed according to
the laws of the State of Texas, provided, that to the extent federal law would
allow a higher rate of interest than would be allowed by the laws of the State
of Texas, then with respect to the provisions of any law which purports to limit
the amount of interest that may be contracted for, charged or received in
connection with any of the Obligations, such federal law shall apply.
10.15 Entirety and Amendments. This Agreement embodies the entire
agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and may be
modified or amended only by an instrument in writing executed by an authorized

the benefit of CompuCom, Administrative Secured Party and the Beneficial Secured
Parties, and their respective successors in interest. CompuCom may not assign
any right, power, duty, or obligation under this Agreement, or any document or
instrument executed in connection herewith, without the prior written consent of
Administrative Secured Party and each Beneficial Secured Party. Neither CFI nor
EFC may assign any right, power, duty, or obligation under this Agreement, or

written consent of Administrative Secured Party (except assignments to the
limited extent provided in the RPA and TAA as of the Effective Date, provided
that any such portions of the RPA Interests assigned pursuant to any such
assignments at all times shall be and remain subject to Administrative Secured
Party's rights and interests under this Agreement). This Agreement is intended
for the benefit of CompuCom, Administrative Secured Party, the Beneficial
Secured Parties (and any Person properly claiming through any of them as an
assignee to the limited extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement), and may
not be relied upon by any other Person.
10.17 Exhibits. All exhibits referenced herein, and attached hereto, are
incorporated in this Agreement and made a part hereof for all purposes.
10.18. Descriptive Titles. The descriptive titles "Administrative Secured
Party" and "Beneficial Secured Party" are for convenience only and shall not
themselves be construed to limit the rights and powers granted to Administrative
Secured Party or Beneficial Secured Parties under this Agreement.
10.19 Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies of Administrative
Secured Party under the Administration Documents are cumulative, and are in
addition to rights and remedies available to Administrative Secured Party by
applicable law. Such rights and remedies may be exercised concurrently or
successively, at such times as Administrative Secured Party may determine in its
discretion. CompuCom waives any right to require marshaling. If Administrative
Secured Party, in its individual corporate capacity, and CompuCom are parties to
any prior agreement, either written or oral, relating to the Collateral, the
terms of this Agreement shall supersede the terms of such prior agreements as to
transactions respecting the Collateral on or after the Effective Date, but all
security agreements, financing statements, guaranties, other contracts and
notices for the benefit of Administrative Secured Party, in its individual
corporate capacity, in connection with any such prior agreement shall continue
in full force and effect (subject to the terms of this Agreement) to secure all
obligations under the terms thereof unless Administrative Secured Party
specifically releases its rights thereunder by separate release in writing
executed by Administrative Secured Party.
10.20 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under any present or future laws effective
during the Contract Term, such provisions shall be fully severable, and this
Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or
unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement. In such
case, the
39
<PAGE>
remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and
shall not be effected thereby.
10.21 Multiple Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in one or more multiple originals, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
Agreement.
10.22 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations, and
warranties made by CompuCom herein shall survive the execution, delivery, and
closing of this Agreement, and all documents executed in connection herewith,
and shall not be affected by any investigation made by any party.
THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES
AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR
SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

ARTICLE II
PURCHASE, CONVEYANCE AND SERVICING OF RECEIVABLES
SECTION 2.1. Sale. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions
----
set forth herein, the Seller hereby sells, assigns, transfers and conveys to the
Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby purchases from the Seller, on the terms and
subject to the conditions specifically set forth herein, an undivided interest
in, to and under all of the Seller's right, title and interest, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, in, to and under the Receivables outstanding on the
Closing Date and thereafter originated by the Seller through any Termination
Date (but not thereafter), together with all Related Security and Collections
with respect thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing. Such undivided interest
(the "RPA Interest"), expressed as a dollar amount, shall be equal to the
------------
aggregate unpaid balance of the Receivables from time to time multiplied by the
RPA Interest Percentage, which percentage shall be determined from time to time
as provided in Section 3.3. The foregoing sale, assignment, transfer and
conveyance does not constitute an assumption by the Purchaser of any obligations
of the Seller or any other Person to Obligors or to any other Person in
connection with the Receivables or under any Related Security or other agreement
and instrument relating to the Receivables.
(b) In connection with the foregoing sale, the Seller agrees to
record and file on or prior to the Closing Date, at its own expense, a financing
statement or statements with respect to the RPA Interest and the other property
described in Section 2.1(a) sold by the Seller hereunder meeting the
requirements of applicable state law in such manner and in such jurisdictions as
are necessary to perfect and protect the interests of the Purchaser created
hereby under the UCC (subject, in the case of Related Security constituting
returned inventory, to the applicable provisions of Section 9-306 of the UCC,
the Inventory Financing Agreements) against all creditors of and purchasers from
the Seller, and to deliver either the originals of such financing statements or
file-stamped copies of such financing statements or other evidence of such
filings to the Purchaser on the Closing Date.
4
<PAGE>
(c) The Seller agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will
promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents and take all actions
as may be necessary or as the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to
perfect or protect the interest of the Purchaser in the RPA Interest purchased
hereunder or to enable the Purchaser to exercise or enforce any of its rights
hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller will, in order to
accurately reflect this purchase and sale transaction, execute and file such
financing or continuation statements or amendments thereto or assignments
thereof (as permitted pursuant hereto) as may be requested by the Purchaser and
mark its master data processing records and other documents with a legend
describing the purchase by the Purchaser. The Seller shall, upon request of the
Purchaser, obtain such additional search reports as the Purchaser shall request.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Purchaser shall be
permitted to sign and file continuation statements and amendments thereto and
assignments thereof without the Seller's signature. Carbon, photographic or
other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement shall be
sufficient as a financing statement.
(d) It is the express intent of the Seller and the Purchaser that the
conveyance of the RPA Interest by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement be construed as a sale of such RPA Interest by the Seller to the
Purchaser. Further, it is not the intention of the Seller and the Purchaser
that such conveyance be deemed a grant of a security interest in the Receivables
by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the
Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties,
the RPA Interest is construed to constitute property of the Seller, then
(i) this Agreement also shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security
agreement within the meaning of the UCC; and (ii) the conveyance by the Seller
provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be, and the Seller hereby
grants to the Purchaser, a security interest in, to and under all of the
Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables outstanding
on the Closing Date and thereafter originated by the Seller, together with all
Related Security and Collections with respect thereto and all proceeds of the
foregoing, to secure the rights of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement or
as may be determined in connection therewith
5
<PAGE>
by applicable law (collectively, the "Secured Obligations"). The Seller and the
-------------------
Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions
as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a
security interest in the Receivables, such security interest would be deemed to
be a perfected security interest in favor of the Purchaser under applicable law
and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement (subject
only to the security interest and rights in favor of the Administrative Secured
Party under the Master Security and Administration Agreement as provided
therein).
(e) The RPA Interest purchased by the Purchaser hereunder at all
times shall be subject to the security interest and rights in favor of the
Administrative Secured Party under the Master Security and Administration
Agreement as provided therein. All terms and provisions of the Master Security
and Administration Agreement which are binding or otherwise applicable to the
Seller, the Purchaser or the interests of either of them in the Receivables sold
hereunder or any portion thereof, and all rights and remedies with respect
thereto, are binding and applicable to the Seller and the Purchaser,
respectively. Neither the Seller nor the Purchaser shall be entitled to take or
cause to be taken any action with respect to the Receivables or any portion
thereof which otherwise is or would be prohibited or restricted by the Master
Security and Administration Agreement.
SECTION 2.2. Servicing of Receivables. The servicing, administering
------------------------
and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by the Seller, who hereby
agrees to perform, take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary
or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, all in accordance
with applicable laws, rules and regulations and the Master Security and
Administration Agreement, and with the care and diligence which the Seller
employs in servicing similar receivables for its own account, in accordance with
the Credit and Collection Policy. The Purchaser hereby appoints the Seller as
its agent to enforce the Purchaser's rights and interests in, to and under the
Receivables, the Related Security and the Collections with respect thereto. The
Seller shall hold in trust for the Purchaser, in accordance with its interests,
all Records which evidence or relate to the RPA Interest or Related Security,
Collec-
6
<PAGE>
tions and proceeds with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, from and after the occurrence of a Termination Event
or a Potential Termination Event (each as defined in the Transfer Agreement),
unless otherwise provided in the Master Security and Administration Agreement,
NationsBank, N.A., as Agent, shall have the absolute and unlimited right to
terminate the Seller's servicing activities described in this Section 2.2. In
consideration of the foregoing, the Purchaser agrees to pay the Seller a
servicing fee of 0.50 percent per annum on the RPA Interest Percentage of the
aggregate Outstanding Balance of Receivables, payable monthly, for its
performance of the duties and obligations described in this Section 2.2. The
provisions of this Section 2.2 are expressly subject to the Master Security and
Administration Agreement.

ARTICLE III
CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT; RPA INTEREST
SECTION 3.1. Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the RPA Interest
--------------
and related property conveyed to the Purchaser by the Seller under this
Agreement shall be a dollar amount equal to (a) for the RPA Interest sold by
Seller on the Closing Date, the product of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Balance
of the Receivables as of the Closing Date, (ii) the initial RPA Interest
Percentage and (iii) one minus the then applicable Purchase Discount, and
-----
(b) for any portion of the RPA Interest sold by the Seller on any date
thereafter, the product of (i) the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the
Receivables with respect to which such RPA Interest is sold on such date,
(ii) the RPA Interest Percentage in effect for such day and (iii) one minus the
Purchase Discount
-----
applicable on such date.
SECTION 3.2. Payment of Purchase Price. (a) The Purchase Price for
-------------------------
the RPA Interest shall be paid or provided for on the Closing Date with respect
to the RPA Interest in Receivables existing on the Closing Date and on the last
Business Day of each calendar month thereafter during which the RPA Interest is
sold hereunder in Receivables thereafter originated by the Seller, as the case
may be, by payment in immediately available funds of $111,579,000. The balance
of such Purchase Price shall be paid by capital contributed by the Seller to
Purchaser in the form of a contribution of the RPA Interest.
(b) The Purchase Price for any portion of the RPA Interest sold by
the Seller on any date after the date hereof shall be paid either (i) in cash or
(ii) if Purchaser does not have sufficient cash to pay the Purchase Price, by
means of (A) an advance under the Subordinated Note (each, an "Advance") or
-------
(B) with the consent of the Seller, capital contributed by the Seller to
Purchaser in the form of a contribution of the additional RPA Interest or
(iii) with the consent of the Seller, any combination of the foregoing. In the
event Purchaser does not have sufficient cash to pay the Purchase Price due on
any Purchase Date and the Seller is not willing to consent to the payment of
such insufficiency by means of a capital contribution, such insufficiency shall
be evidenced by the making of an Advance on such Purchase
8
<PAGE>
Date in an original principal amount equal to such cash shortfall owed to the
Seller; provided, however, that the Seller shall not make an Advance to
-------- -------
Purchaser to the extent that the aggregate amount of outstanding Advances would
be an amount such that the net worth of the Purchaser would be less than 7.0% of
the RPA Interest (the "Advance Limit"). All Advances made by the Seller to
-------------
Purchaser shall be evidenced by a single subordinated note, duly executed on
behalf of Purchaser, in substantially the form of Exhibit B annexed hereto,
delivered and payable to the Seller in a principal amount equal to the Advance
Limit thereunder (the "Subordinated Note"). The Seller is hereby authorized by
-----------------
Purchaser to endorse on the schedule attached to the Subordinated Note (or a
continuation of such schedule attached thereto and made a part thereof) an
appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each Advance, as well as
the date and amount of each payment with respect thereto; provided, however,
-------- -------
that the failure of any Person to make such a notation shall not affect any
obligations of Purchaser thereunder. Any such notation shall be conclusive and
binding as to the date and amount of such Advance, or payment of principal or
interest thereon, absent manifest error. The RPA Interest with respect to which
the Purchase Price therefor is paid pursuant to either clause (i) or clause
(ii)(A) above is referred to herein as the "Purchased RPA Interest", and the RPA
----------------------
Interest with respect to which the Purchase Price therefor is paid pursuant to
clause (ii)(B) above is referred to herein as the "Contributed RPA Interest".
------------------------
The Purchased RPA Interest and the Contributed RPA Interest are collectively
referred to herein as the "Transferred RPA Interest".
------------------------
(c) The terms and conditions of the Subordinated Note and all
Advances thereunder shall be as follows:
(i) Repayment of Advances. All amounts paid by the Purchaser
---------------------
with respect to the Advances shall be allocated first to the repayment of
accrued interest until all such interest is paid, and then to the outstanding
principal amount of the Advances. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement,
the Purchaser may borrow, repay and reborrow Advances on and after the date
hereof and prior to the termination of this Agreement, subject to the terms,
provisions and limitations set forth herein, including, without limitation, the
require-
9
<PAGE>
ment that no Advance be made to the extent that after giving effect
thereto the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances would exceed
the Advance Limit.
(ii) Interest. The Subordinated Note shall bear interest from
--------
its date on the outstanding principal balance thereof at a rate per annum equal
to 5.00%. Interest on each Advance shall be computed based on the number of days
elapsed in a year of 360 days.
(iii) Sole and Exclusive Remedy/Subordination. The Purchaser
---------------------------------------
shall be obligated to repay Advances to the Seller only to the extent of funds
available to the Purchaser from Collections on the RPA Interest and, to the
extent that such payments are insufficient to pay all amounts owing to the
Seller under the Subordinated Note, the Seller shall not have any claim against
the Purchaser for such amounts and no further or additional recourse shall be
available against Purchaser. The Subordinated Note shall be fully subordinated
to any rights of Enterprise and its permitted assigns pursuant to the Transfer
Agreement, and shall not evidence any rights in the RPA Interest.
(iv) Offsets, etc. The Purchaser may offset any amount due and
------------
owing by the Seller against any amount due and owing by Purchaser to the Seller
under the terms of the Subordinated Note.
SECTION 3.3. Determination of the RPA Interest. (a) By delivery of
---------------------------------
the initial Ownership Certification under the Master Security and Administration
Agreement, the Seller shall notify the Purchaser and the Administrative Secured
Party of the initial RPA Interest Percentage. The RPA Interest Percentage as in
effect at any time shall represent the interest of the Purchaser in, to and
under each and every Receivable existing at such time.
(b) The RPA Interest Percentage shall remain constant until such time
as the Purchaser and the Seller mutually agree to a change in such percentage,
it being understood that neither the Purchaser nor the Seller shall be under any
obligation to agree to any change in such percentage at any time. Without
limiting the foregoing, no decrease in the RPA Interest Percentage shall be made
if, after giving effect thereto, a Termination
10
<PAGE>
Event under and as defined in the Transfer and Administration Agreement would
exist, and no increase to the RPA Interest Percentage shall be made if, after
giving effect thereto, an Event of Default under and as defined in the Financing
and Security Agreement would exist.
SECTION 3.4. Monthly Report. On the last Business Day of each
--------------
calendar month, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a monthly report,
substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, showing (i) the
aggregate Purchase Price of the RPA Interest in Receivables acquired or
generated by the Seller in the preceding month and (ii) the aggregate
Outstanding Balance of such Receivables that are Eligible Receivables.

financial condition of the Seller and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or
materially adversely affect the ability of Seller to perform its obligations
under this Agreement.
(h) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any sale hereunder will be

the Purchaser harmless from and against any and all loss, liability, damage,
judgment, claim, deficiency, or expense (including interest, penalties,

claim, deficiency, or expense arises out of or is based upon a
20
<PAGE>
breach by the Seller of its representations, warranties and covenants contained
herein, or any information certified in any schedule or certificate delivered by
the Seller hereunder or in connection with the Conveyance Papers, being untrue
in any material respect at any time. The obligations of the Seller under this

Agreement for a period of three (3) years following the Termination Date,
regardless of any investigation made by the Purchaser.

-----
notice upon becoming aware that the Seller is not in compliance in all material

------------------
in which has been sold by the Seller hereunder and which has been reported by
the Seller as an Eligible Receivable, shall fail to meet the conditions set
forth in the definition of Eligible Receivable or for which any representation

--------------
the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable an interest in which has been sold by
the Seller hereunder is either (x) reduced as a result of defective, rejected or
returned goods or other dilution factor, any billing adjustment or other
adjustment, or (y) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff or offset in
respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or
a related transaction or an
22
<PAGE>
unrelated transaction), then the Seller shall be deemed to have received on such
day a collection of such Receivable in the amount of such reduction,
cancellation or payment made by the Obligor and shall on such day pay to the

cancellation.

of selection granted to the Company hereby. The Tranche Rate applicable to any
such Purchased Interest may be the BR Rate, the CD Rate or the Eurodollar Rate,

Discount, second, in payment of all fees and expenses payable to the Company

adjustment or other adjustment, or (y) reduced or canceled as a result of a
setoff or offset in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim
arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction),
the Transferor shall be deemed (for the limited purposes of this Agreement) to
have received on such day a collection of such Receivable in the amount of the
RPA Interest Percentage of such reduction or cancellation, and the Transferor
shall pay to the Collection Agent an amount equal to the Percentage Factor of
the RPA Interest in such reduction or cancellation, and such amount shall be

or 2.6, as applicable. The Net Investment shall be reduced by the amount of such
payment actually received by the Company.

Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Percentage Factor of the RPA Interest in
the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable and such amount shall be allocated to

by the Company.

Account all amounts received by the Collection Agent with respect to the RPA
Interest in Collections; provided, however, the Collection Agent shall be

Account shall be retained in the Collection Account and be available to make any

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTIONS
SECTION 6.1. Appointment of Collection Agent. The servicing,
-------------------------------
administering and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such
Person (the "Collection Agent") so designated from time to time in accordance
-----------------
with this Section 6.1. Until the Agent gives notice to CompuCom of the
designation of a new Collection Agent, CompuCom is hereby designated as, and
hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Collection Agent
pursuant to the terms hereof. The Agent may, only upon the occurrence of a
default in the performance of the Collection Agent's obligations hereunder or
any other Termination Event designate as Collection Agent any Person (including
itself) to succeed CompuCom or any successor Collection Agent, on the condition
in each case that any such Person so designated shall agree to perform the
duties and obligations of the Collection Agent pursuant to the terms hereof.
Upon the occurrence of a Potential Termination Event or Termination Event, the
Agent may notify any Obligor of the Transferred Interest. The provisions of this
Section 6.1 are expressly subject to the provisions of the Master Security and
Administration Agreement.
SECTION 6.2. Duties of Collection Agent.
--------------------------
(a) The Collection Agent shall take or cause to be taken all
such action as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from
time to time, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and
Collection Policy. Each of the Transferor, the Company and the Bank Investors
hereby appoints as its agent the Collection Agent, from time to time designated
pursuant to Section 6.1, to enforce its respective rights and interests in and
under the Receivables, the Related Security and the Contracts. The Collection
Agent shall set aside for the account of the Transferor and the Company their
respective allocable shares of the Collections received by the Collection Agent
in respect of the RPA Interest in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.6. The
Collection Agent shall segregate and deposit to the Company's account the
Company's
54
<PAGE>
allocable share of Collections received by the Collection Agent in respect of
the RPA Interest when required pursuant to Article II hereof. So long as no
Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collection Agent
may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of
Receivables, but not beyond sixty (60) days, and extend the maturity or adjust
the Outstanding Balance as the Collection Agent may determine to be appropriate
to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or
-------- -------
adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent
Receivable or a Defaulted Receivable. The Collection Agent shall hold in trust
for the Transferor and the Company in accordance with their respective
interests, all Records which evidence or relate to Receivables or Related
Security. Subject to the provisions of the Master Security and Administration
Agreement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent
shall have the right, acting in its reasonable discretion, to direct the
Collection Agent (whether the Collection Agent is CompuCom or any other Person)
to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Receivable
or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.
(b) The Collection Agent shall hold, for the benefit of the
Transferor, Collections allocable to its portion of the RPA Interest received
minus the Percentage Factor of such Collections. On the last day of each Tranche
- -----
Period, the Collection Agent shall deduct from such Collections and pay to the
Company in reduction of the Net Investment any amounts due under Section 2.9
hereof and unpaid from the Transferor and turn the remainder of such Collections
over to the Transferor. In addition, the Collection Agent shall, as soon as
practicable following receipt thereof, turn over to the Transferor any
collections allocable to the RPA Interest of any indebtedness of any Obligor
which is not a Receivable. If CompuCom is not the Collection Agent, the
Collection Agent, by giving three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to the
Agent, may revise the percentage used to calculate the Servicing Fee so long as
the revised percentage will not result in a Servicing Fee that exceeds 110% of
the reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such
Collection Agent incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations
hereunder as documented to the reasonable satis-
55
<PAGE>
faction of the Company. The Collection Agent, if other than CompuCom, shall as
soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to CompuCom all Records in its
possession which evidence or relate to indebtedness allocable to the RPA
Interest of an Obligor which is not a Receivable.
(c) On or before 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the
Collection Agent, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 1996, the
Collection Agent shall cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may
also render other services to the Collection Agent or the Transferor) to furnish
a report to the Agent to the effect that they have (i) compared the information
contained in the Investor Reports delivered during such fiscal year with the
information contained in the Contracts and the Collection Agent's records and
computer systems for such period, and that, on the basis of such examination and
comparison, such firm is of the opinion that the information contained in the
Investor Reports reconciles with the information contained in the Contracts and
the Collection Agent's records and computer system and that the servicing of the
Receivables has been conducted in compliance with this Agreement, (ii) conducted
a confirmation of a sample, based on a sample size provided by the Agent or
otherwise agreed to by the Agent, of the Receivables and verified that the
Collection Agent's records and computer system used in servicing the Receivables
contained correct information with regard to due dates and outstanding balances,
(iii) verified that the Receivables treated by the Collection Agent as Eligible
Receivables and the calculation of the Net Receivables Balance in fact satisfied
the requirements of the definition thereof contained herein, except, in each
case for (a) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial (which
exceptions need not be enumerated) and (b) such other exceptions as shall be set
forth in such statement, and (iv) obtained no knowledge of any Termination Event
or Potential Termination Event, or if, in the opinion of such accountants, any
Termination Event or Potential Termination Event shall exist, stating the nature
and status thereof
(d) The provisions of this Section 6.2 are expressly subject to the
terms of the Master Security and Administration Agreement.

(ii) Each of the Transferor and the Collection Agent shall, at

Party or, if no Person is acting in such capacity, to the Agent or its
designee.
(iii) Each of the Transferor and the Collection Agent shall,
at the Administrative Secured Party's request, (A) assemble all of the

selected by the Agent or its designee, and (B) segregate all cash, checks

endorsed or with duly executed instruments of transfer, to the
Administrative Secured Party or, if no Person is acting in such capacity,
to the Agent or its designee.
(iv) Each of the Transferor and the Collection Agent hereby
authorizes the Agent to take any and all steps in each of the Transferor's
and the Collection Agent's name and on behalf of each of the Transferor and
CompuCom necessary or desirable, in the determination of the Agent, to
collect all amounts due under the RPA Interest, including, without
57
<PAGE>
limitation, if no Person is acting as Administrative Secured Party,
endorsing the Transferor's name on checks and other instruments
representing Collections and enforcing such Receivables and the related
Contracts.
SECTION 6.4. Responsibilities of each of the Transferor and CompuCom.
-------------------------------------------------------
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each of the Transferor and
CompuCom shall (i) perform all of its obligations under the Contracts related to
the Receivables to the same extent as if interests in such Receivables had not
been sold hereunder and the exercise by the Company of its rights hereunder
shall not relieve each of the Transferor and CompuCom from such obligations and
(ii) pay when due any taxes, including without limitation, any sales taxes
payable in connection with the Receivables and their creation and satisfaction.
Neither the Company nor any Bank Investor shall have any obligation or liability
with respect to any Receivable or related Contracts, nor shall it be obligated
to perform any of the obligations of the Transferor or CompuCom thereunder.

advance funds under the Liquidity Provider Agreement or the credit support
furnished by the Credit Support Provider or otherwise in respect of this

Indemnified Party with respect to this Agreement, the Transferred Interest, the
Receivables, the obligations hereunder, the funding of any purchases hereunder,
the Liquidity Provider Agreement or the Credit Support Agreement, by an amount
deemed by such Indemnified Party to be material, then, within ten (10) days
after demand by the Agent, the Transferor or CompuCom shall pay to the Agent
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Indemnified Party for
such increased cost or reduction.

66
<PAGE>
the interpretation thereof by any Official Body, or any directive regarding
capital adequacy (in the case of any bank regulatory guideline, whether or not
having the force of law) of any such Official Body, has or would have the effect
of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Indemnified Party (or its
parent) as a consequence of such Indemnified Party's obligations hereunder or
with respect hereto to a level below that which such Indemnified Party (or its
parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive
(taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an
amount deemed by such Indemnified Party to be material, then from time to time,
within ten (10) days after demand by the Agent, the Transferor and CompuCom
shall pay to the Agent such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Indemnified Party (or its parent) for such reduction.
(c) The Agent will promptly notify each of the Transferor and
CompuCom of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date
hereof, which will entitle an Indemnified Party to compensation pursuant to this
Section. A notice by the Agent claiming compensation under this Section and
setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it on behalf of an
Indemnified Party hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error. In determining such amount, the Agent and any applicable Indemnified
Party may use any reasonable averaging and attributing methods.
(d) Anything in this Section 8.2 to the contrary notwithstanding,
if the Company enters into agreements for the acquisition of interests in

ARTICLE IX
THE AGENT AND THE BANK COMMITMENT
SECTION 9.1. Authorization and Action. (a) The Company and each
------------------------
Bank Investor hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as
agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are
delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the
generality, of the foregoing, the Company and each Bank Investor hereby appoints
the Agent as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and
documents, and take all further action that the Agent may deem necessary or
appropriate or that the Company or a Bank Investor may reasonably request in
order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interests transferred or to
be transferred from time to time by the Transferor hereunder, or to enable any
of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, the execution by the Agent as secured
party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments
thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Receivables now
existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be
necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. The Company and
the Bank Investors may direct the Agent to take any such incidental action
hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions
specifically delegated to the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall not be required
to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to
refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from
acting) upon the direction of the Company or a Bank Investor; provided, however,
-------- -------
that Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder if the taking of
such action, in the reasonable determination of the Agent, shall be in violation
of any applicable law, rule or regulation or contrary to any provision of this
Agreement or shall expose the Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. Upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Termination Event or Potential
Termination Event, the Agent shall take no action hereunder (other than
ministerial actions or such actions as are specifically provided for herein)
without the prior consent of the Majority Investors. Unless other-
70
<PAGE>
wise provided herein, the Agent shall not authorize the release of any property
conveyed to the Agent by the Company or the Transferor hereunder without the
prior consent of all Bank Investors. The Agent shall not, without the prior
written consent of all Bank Investors, agree to (i) amend, modify or waive any
provision of this Agreement in any way which would (A) reduce or impair
Collections or the payment of Discount or fees payable under the related fee
letter or delay the scheduled dates for payment of such amounts, (B) increase
the Servicing Fee, (C) modify any provisions of this Agreement relating to the
timing of payments required to be made by the Transferor or the application of
the proceeds of such payments, or (D) the appointment of any Person (other than
the Agent) as successor Collection Agent. The Agent shall not agree to any
amendment of this Agreement which increases the dollar amount of a Bank
Investor's Commitment without the prior consent of such Bank Investor. In
addition, the Agent shall not agree to any amendment of this Agreement not
specifically contemplated by the two preceding sentences without the consent of
the related Majority Investors. "Majority Investors" shall mean, at any time,
------------------
Persons consisting of Bank Investors which hold Commitments aggregating in
excess of 51% of the Maximum Net Investment as of such date. In the event the
Agent requests the Company's or a Bank Investor's consent pursuant to the
foregoing provisions and the Agent does not receive a consent (either positive
or negative) from the Company or such Bank Investor within ten (10) Business
Days of the Company's or Bank Investor's receipt of such request, then the
Company or such Bank Investor (and its percentage interest hereunder) shall be
disregarded in determining whether the Agent shall have obtained sufficient
consent hereunder.
(b) The Agent shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it by
this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as
a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.
SECTION 9.2. Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Agent nor any of
----------------------
its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by it or them as Agent under or in connection with
this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limiting the
71
<PAGE>
foregoing, the Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for
the Transferor or CompuCom), independent public accountants and other experts
selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be
taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel,
accountants or experts; (ii) shall make no warranty or representation to the
Company or any Bank Investor and shall not be responsible to the Company or any
Bank Investor for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Transferor, the Collection Agent
or CompuCom or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the
Transferor, the Collection Agent or CompuCom; (iv) shall not be responsible to
the Company or any Bank Investor for the due execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (v) shall incur no
liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice
(including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or
writing (which may be by telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent
by the proper party or parties.
SECTION 9.3. Credit Decision. The Company and each Bank Investor
---------------
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any
of the Agent's Affiliates' any (other) Bank Investor or the Company (in the case
of any Bank Investors) and based upon such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this
Agreement and, if it so determines, to accept the transfer of any undivided
ownership interest in Receivables hereunder. The Company and each Bank Investor
also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent, any of the Agent's Affiliates, any (other) Bank Investor or the Company
(in the case of any Bank Investors) and based on such documents and information
as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement.
72
<PAGE>
SECTION 9.4. Indemnification of the Agent. The Bank Investors
----------------------------
agree to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Transferor),
ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under
this Agreement; provided that the Bank Investors shall not be liable for any
--------
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's
gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing,
the Bank Investors agree to reimburse the Agent, ratably in accordance with
their Pro Rata Shares, promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses
(including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through
negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of
rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that such
expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Bank
Investors hereunder and to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such
expenses by the Transferor.
SECTION 9.5. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by
---------------
giving written notice thereof to each Bank Investor, the Company and the
Transferor and may be removed at any time with cause by the Majority Investors.
Upon any such resignation or removal, the Bank Investors acting jointly shall
appoint a successor Agent. Each Bank Investor agrees that it shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the appointment of a successor
Agent. If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Bank
Investors, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days
after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Majority
Investors' removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf
of the Bank Investors, appoint a successor Agent which successor Agent shall be
either (i) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of
any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 or (ii) an Affiliate of such a bank.
73
<PAGE>
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent,
such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
After any retiring Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the
provisions of this Article IX shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken
or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

---------------------
to a Bank Investor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received
by the Agent on behalf of the Bank Investors shall be paid by the Agent to the
Bank Investors (at their respective accounts specified in their respective
Assignments) in accordance with their respective related pro rata interests in
--- ----
the Net Investment on the Business Day received by the Agent, unless such
amounts are received after 12:00 noon (New York time) on such Business Day, in
which case the Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to the
Bank Investors on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts
to the Bank Investors in accordance with their respective related pro rata
--- ----
interests in the Net Investment not later than the following Business Day.
SECTION 9.7. Bank Commitment; Assignment to Bank Investors.
---------------------------------------------
(a) Bank Commitment. At any time on or prior to the Commitment
---------------
Termination Date, in the event that the Company does not effect an Incremental
Transfer as requested under Section 2.2, then, at any time thereafter, the
Transferor shall have the right to require the Company to assign its interest in
whole to the Bank Investors pursuant to an assignment and assumption agreement
(an "Assignment") in accordance with this Section 9.7. In addition, at any time
----------
on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, (i) upon the occurrence of a
Termination Event or (ii) the Company elects to give notice of a Reinvestment
Termination Date, the Transferor hereby requests and directs that the Company
assign its interest in whole to the Bank Investors pursuant to this Section 9.7,
and the Transferor agrees to pay the amounts described in Section 9.7(d) below.
Provided that (i) the
74
<PAGE>
Net Asset Test is satisfied and (ii) the Transferor shall have paid to the
Company all amounts due as described in Section 9.7(d) (which amount may be
deemed paid by the Transferor through an increase in the Net Investment), upon
any such election by the Company or any such request by the Transferor, the
Company shall make such assignment and the Bank Investors shall accept such
assignment and shall assume all of the Company's obligations hereunder. In
connection with any assignment from the Company to the Bank Investors pursuant
to this Section 9.7, each Bank Investor shall, on the date of such assignment,
pay to the Company an amount equal to its Assignment Amount. In addition, at any
time on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Transferor shall have
the right to request funding under this Agreement directly from the Bank
Investors; provided that at such time all conditions precedent set forth herein
--------
for an Incremental Transfer shall be satisfied, and provided further that, in
-------- -------
connection with such funding by the Bank Investors, the Bank Investors accept
the assignment of all of the Company's interest in the Net Investment and assume
all of the Company's obligations hereunder.
(b) Assignment. Upon any assignment pursuant to Section 9.7(a), the
----------
Company shall deliver to each Bank Investor an Assignment, duly executed,
assigning to each such Bank Investor a pro rata interest in the Net Investment
--- ----
plus amounts unpaid pursuant to Section 9.7(d) (which amounts may be applied to
increase the Net Investment), and the Company shall promptly execute and deliver
all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the
assignee may reasonably request, in order to protect, or more fully evidence the
assignee's right, title and interest in and to such interest and to enable the
Agent, on behalf of such assignee, to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder.
Upon any such assignment, (i) the assignee shall have all of the rights and
obligations of the Company hereunder with respect to such interest for all
purposes of this Agreement (it being understood that the Bank Investors, as
assignees, shall (x) be obligated to effect Incremental Transfers under Section
2.2 in accordance with the terms thereof unless a Termination Event has
occurred, notwithstanding that the Company was not so obligated and (y) not have
the right to elect the commencement of the amortization of the Net Investment
pursuant to the definition of "Termination Date", notwithstanding that the
75
<PAGE>
Company had such right) and (ii) the Company shall relinquish its rights with
respect to such interest for all purposes of this Agreement. No such assignment
shall be effective unless a fully executed copy of the related Assignment shall
be delivered to the Agent and Transferor. All reasonable costs and expenses of
the Company and assignee incurred in connection with any assignment hereunder
shall be borne by the Transferor and not by the Company or any such assignee.
No Bank Investor may assign all or any portion of its interest in the Net
Investment, the RPA Interest, Collections, Related Security and Proceeds with
respect thereto and its rights and obligations hereunder to any Person unless
approved in writing by the Agent. No Bank Investor shall assign any portion of
its Commitment hereunder without also simultaneously assigning an equal portion
of its interest in the Liquidity Provider Agreement.
(c) Effects of Assignment. By executing and delivering an Assignment,
---------------------
the assignor and assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and
the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such
Assignment, the assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations
made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any such other instrument
or document; (ii) the assignor makes no representation or warranty and assumes
no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Transferor or
the performance or observance by the Transferor of any of its obligations under
this Agreement, or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto;
(iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and
such other instruments, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate
to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and
to purchase such interest; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without
reliance upon the Agent, or any of its Affiliates, or the assignor and based on
such agreements, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the
time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action
under this Agreement; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to
take such action as agent on its behalf and
76
<PAGE>
to exercise such powers under this Agreement and any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto as are delegated to the Agent by
the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto and to enforce its respective rights and interests in and
under this Agreement, the Receivables and the Related Security; (vi) such
assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by
it as the assignee of the assignor; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will
not institute against the Company any proceeding of the type referred to in
Section 10.9 prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment
in full of all Commercial Paper issued by the Company.
(d) Transferor's Obligation to Pay Certain Amounts. The Transferor
----------------------------------------------
shall pay to the Company, prior to any assignment by the Company to the Bank
Investors pursuant to this Section 9.7, an aggregate amount equal to all
Discount accrued with respect to each Tranche Period, all Discount to accrue
through the end of each outstanding Tranche Period plus all other Aggregate
Unpaids (other than the Net Investment). To the extent that such Discount
relates to interest or discount on Commercial Paper issued to fund the Net
Investment, if the Transferor fails to make payment of such amounts at or prior
to the time of assignment by the Company to the Bank Investors, such amount
shall be paid by the Bank Investors to the Company as additional consideration
for the interests assigned to the Bank Investors, and the amount of the "Net
Investment" hereunder held by the Bank Investors shall be increased by an amount
equal to the additional amount so paid by the Bank Investors.
(e) Administration of Agreement After Assignment; Discount. After
------------------------------------------------------
any assignment by the Company to the Bank Investors pursuant to this Section
9.7, all rights of the Collateral Agent set forth herein shall be deemed to be
afforded to the Agent on behalf of the Bank Investors instead of either such
party. After any such assignment, Discount hereunder shall be determined in
accordance with the terms of the Fee Letter dated the date hereof (as such
letter may be amended from time to time) between the Transferor and the Agent.
77
<PAGE>
(f) Payments. After any assignment by the Company to the Bank
--------
Investors pursuant to this Section 9.7, all payments to be made hereunder by the
Transferor or the Collection Agent to the Bank Investors shall be made to the
Agent's account as such account shall have been notified to the Transferor and
the Collection Agent.
(g) Downgrade of Bank Investor. If the short-term debt
--------------------------
rating of a Bank Investor shall be A-2 or P-2 from Standard & Poor's or Moody's,
respectively, with negative credit implications, such Bank Investor, upon
request of the Agent, shall, within thirty (30) days of such request, assign its
rights and obligations hereunder to another financial institution (which
institution's short-term debt shall be rated at least A-2 and P-2 from Standard
& Poor's and Moody's, respectively, and which shall not be so rated with
negative credit implications). If the short-term debt rating of a Bank Investor
shall be A-3 or P-3, or lower, from Standard & Poor's or Moody's, respectively,
such Bank Investor, upon request of the Agent, shall, within five (5) Business
Days of such request, assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another
financial institution (which institution's short- term debt shall be rated at
least A-2 and P-2 from Standard & Poor's and Moody's, respectively, and which
shall not be so rated with negative credit implications). In either such case,
if any such Bank Investor shall not have assigned its rights and obligations
under this Agreement within the applicable time period described above, the
Company shall have the right to require such Bank Investor to accept the
assignment of such Bank Investor's Pro Rata Share of the Net Investment, and
such assignment shall occur in accordance with the applicable provisions of this
Section 9.7. Such Bank Investor shall be obligated to pay to the Company, in
connection with such assignment, in addition to the Pro Rata Share of the Net
Investment, an amount equal to a pro rata portion of the interest component of
all outstanding Commercial Paper issued to fund the Net Investment, as
reasonably determined by the Agent.
SECTION 9.8. Master Security and Administration Agreement. The
--------------------------------------------
interest in the RPA Interest transferred under this Agreement at all times shall
be subject to the security interest and rights in favor of the Administrative
Secured Party under the Master Security and Administration Agreement as provided
therein. All
78
<PAGE>
terms and provisions of the Master Security and Administration Agreement
which are binding or otherwise applicable to the Company or the Transferred
Interest or any portion thereof, and all rights and remedies with respect
thereto, are binding and applicable to Agent, any successor Agent, the
Collection Agent, any successor Collection Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
successor Collateral Agent, the Bank Investors, the Liquidity Provider and the
Credit Support Provider, respectively, and all interests of any such Persons, to
the extent of their respective interests now or hereafter arising under or in
connection with this Agreement. Neither the Agent, any successor Agent, the
Collection Agent, any successor Collection Agent, the Collateral Agent, any
successor Collateral Agent, the Bank Investors, the Liquidity Provider or the
Credit Support Provider, respectively, shall be entitled to take or cause to be
taken any action with respect to the Receivables or any portion thereof which
otherwise is or would be prohibited or restricted by the Master Security and
Administration Agreement.

Dear COMPUCOM SYSTEMS, INC.,
In HP's quest to simplify the contracting and negotiating process, your 1996 HP
Agreement and Addendum is based substantially on your 1995 Agreement and
Addendum.
In fact, the text of the 1995 Agreement, Addendum and Exhibit L as negotiated
between HP and you is carried forward and repeated in 1996, except for those
modifications indicated in this letter. All other terms and conditions of your
1995 Agreement remain unchanged.
Included with this letter are the new companion documents which form a part of
your 1996 Agreement, the Operations Policy Manual, Product Acquisition and
Resale Categories and Product Exhibits.
Amendments to your U.S. Reseller Agreement:
- -------------------------------------------
Section 2.A.3
Status Change: Modify to read as follows:
"Undergo a merger, acquisition, consolidation or other reorganization with the
result that any entity controls 50% or more of Reseller's capital stock or
assets after such transaction; or"
Section 10
Price Adjustments; Price Protection: Deleted and moved to the Operations Policy
Manual (OPM) as modified
Section 16
Reseller Record Keeping: Modify to read as follows:
"HP or HP's designate will be given prompt access during normal business hours,
either on sight or through other means specified by HP to Reseller's customer
records of account specifically related to HP Products as HP believes are
reasonably necessary to verify and audit Reseller's compliance with this
Agreement"
Amendment to your U.S. Dealer Addendum:
- ---------------------------------------
Section 3.E
Dealer Responsibilities: Deleted and moved as modified to the HP Product
Acquisition and Resale Categories.
<PAGE>
Section 5
Volume Commitment Levels: Modify to read as follows:
DEALERS AT LEVEL I DISCOUNT

A. Dealer volume commitment levels are described on the attached Product
Exhibits and are based upon 12 month purchase volume levels.
DEALERS AT LEVEL II DISCOUNT
- ----------------------------
B. Dealer volume commitment levels are described on the attached Product
Exhibits and are based upon 12 month purchase, sell-through volume levels.
If the term of this Agreement or any new Addendum or Product Exhibit is less
than 12 months, an applicable 12 month volume commitment level will be
calculated for Dealer by projection over a full 12 month term.
Section 6
Dealer Order Milestones: Modify to read as follows:
A. Unless otherwise specified in the Product Exhibits, as of 5 months after
the effective date of this Agreement, HP will review Dealer's progress
towards its volume commitment.
DEALERS AT LEVEL I DISCOUNT
- ---------------------------
1. If Dealer's orders in those first 5 months represent less than 35% of its
12 month volume commitment level, HP may terminate all or any part of this
Agreement.
2. If Dealer's orders sell-through in the first 5 months is 42% or more of the
12 month volume commitment level required for greater Dealer discounts,
then Dealer orders during the remaining term of this Agreement will be
subject to those greater discounts.
3. If Dealer later cancels any order that resulted in HP granting Dealer a
higher discount level, HP may reduce Dealer's discount to the level which
would have applied had all orders never been placed.
DEALERS AT LEVEL II DISCOUNT
- ----------------------------
4. If Dealer's orders sell-through in those first 5 months represent less than
35% of its month volume commitment level, then Dealer's orders during the
remaining term of this Agreement will be subject to the lower Dealer
discounts corresponding to the 12 months volume commitment level projected
by Dealer's orders in those first 5 months. If the projected orders are
below HP's minimum volume commitment level, HP may terminate all or any
part of this Agreement.
B. Dealer discounts for orders during the first 5 months of this Agreement
will not be affected by the milestone adjustments above.
Product Exhibit(s):

Effective March 1, 1996 the U201 and U301 Product Exhibits will be merged
together into the U201 Full Line Reseller Exhibit. The 10M commitment level
will continue to be based on order. The 135M commitment level will be changed
from order based to sell-through based.

EXHIBIT 10.9
COMPUCOM SYSTEMS, INC.
401(K) MATCHED SAVINGS PLAN
AMENDMENT 1996-1
WHEREAS, CompuCom Systems, Inc. (the "Company") maintains the CompuCom
Systems, Inc. 401(k) Matched Savings Plan (the "Plan") for its eligible
employees;
WHEREAS, Section 14.1 of the Plan provides that the Plan may be
amended at any time and from time to time by or pursuant to a resolution of the
board of directors of the Company (the "Board");
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to make certain desirable changes to the
Plan.
NOW, THEREOF, the Plan is amended effective May 1, 1996 as follows:
1. Section 1.4 of the Plan is amended by adding an "(a)" after the
words "shall mean," and by adding to the end thereof a new subsection (b) to
read as follows:
(b) Effective May 1, 1996, solely for purposes of determining an
Eligible Employee's eligibility to participate in the Plan under
Article II hereof, a "Break in Service" shall mean a 12-consecutive-
month period beginning on an Employee's Termination Date or any
anniversary thereof and ending on the next succeeding anniversary of
such Termination Date during which the Employee is not credited with
at least one Hour of Service. An Employee shall not incur a Break in
Service for the 12-consecutive-month period during which he becomes a
Participant, dies, retires, or becomes disabled. Further, solely for
the purpose of determining whether a Participant has incurred a Break
in Service, Hours of Service shall be recognized for Authorized Leaves
of Absence.
In the case of an Employee who is absent from work for a "maternity or
paternity leave of absence," as defined in subsection (a) above, the
12-consecutive-month period beginning on the first anniversary of the
first day of such absence shall not constitute a Break in Service.
2. Section 1.34 of the Plan is amended by adding an "(a)" after the
words "shall mean," and by adding to the end thereof a new subsection (b) to
read as follows:
(b) Effective May 1, 1996, for purposes of Article II, "Reemployment
Commencement Date" shall mean, with respect to any person, the first
date following a Break in Service, as defined in subsection 1.4(b), on
which that person performs an Hour of Service.
<PAGE>
3. Section 1.37 of the Plan is amended by adding an "(a)" after the
words "shall mean," and by adding to the end thereof a new subsection (b) to
read as follows:
(b) Effective May 1, 1996, for purposes of Section 2.1(b),
"Termination Date" shall mean the earlier of (a) the date an Employee
dies or retires, quits or is discharged from the Employer and all
Affiliated Companies, or (b) the first anniversary of the date that
the Employee is otherwise first absent from work from the Employer and
all Affiliated Companies (with or without pay) for any other reason.
4. Section 2.1 of the Plan is amended by adding an "(a)" before the
current paragraph, and by adding to the end thereof a new subsection "(b)" to
read as follows:
(b) Effective May 1, 1996, each Eligible Employee shall become a
Participant eligible to participate in the Plan as of the Entry Date
following his completion of 6 months of service with the Company or an
Affiliated Company beginning with his Employment Commencement Date or
Reemployment Commencement Date. For purposes of this subsection (b),
any one consecutive period of service of 30 days is deemed a month.
The following additional rules shall apply in calculating an Eligible
Employee's 6 months of service under this subsection (b):
(1) If an Employee retires, quits or is discharged, the period
commencing on the Employee's Termination Date and ending on the
first date on which he again performs an Hour of Service shall be
taken into account, if such date is within twelve (12)
consecutive months of the date on which he last performed an Hour
of Service;
(2) If the Employee is absent from work for a reason other than
one specified in Section 2.1(b)(1) and within twelve (12) months
of the first day of such absence, the Employee retires, quits or
is discharged, the period commencing on the first day of such
absence and ending on the first day he again performs an Hour of
Service shall be taken into account, if such day is within twelve
(12) months of the date his absence began.
5. The first sentence of Section 2.3 of the Plan is amended to read
as follows:
A Participant or an Eligible Employee who has completed one Year
of Service, or effective May 1, 1996, 6 months of service with
the Company or an Affiliated Company, as of his Termination Date,
and who is subsequently reemployed by the Employer, shall resume
or
-2-
<PAGE>
become a Participant on the first day of the calendar month
coinciding with or next following his Reemployment Commencement
Date.
6. The first paragraph of Section 3.3 of the Plan is amended by
adding thereto a new last sentence to read as follows:
Effective May 1, 1996, the preceding sentence shall cease being
effective.
7. Section 10.3 of the Plan is amended by adding thereto a new
second sentence following the current first sentence, to read as follows:
Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective May 1, 1996, a
Participant, former Participant or Beneficiary of a deceased
Participant, who is a party-in-interest, as that term is defined
in section 3(14) of ERISA, and who has a vested account balance
of at least $2,000 as of the date of requesting a loan, may
request a loan.
8. All other aspects of the Plan shall remain unchanged by this
Amendment.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and as evidence of the adoption of the foregoing
Amendment, the Company has duly authorized the undersigned officer to execute
this amendment on behalf of the Company this 1st day of May, 1996.
