No obligation or liability to any Obligor on any Receivable or any related Contract is intended to be assumed by the Buyer (or its assignees) hereunder, and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed.

As used herein:

“Cut-Off Date” means (a) with respect to each Originator party hereto as of the date hereof, November 30, 2022, and (b) with respect to any other Originator that first becomes a party hereto after the date hereof, the Business Day prior to the date on which such Originator becomes a party hereto or such other date as the Buyer and such Originator agree to in writing.

“Neenah” means Neenah, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an Originator party hereto.

“Related Rights” means, with respect to any Receivable:

(d) any goods (including Returned Goods), and documentation of title evidencing the shipment or storage of any goods (including Returned Goods), the sale of which gave rise to such Receivable;

(e) all instruments and chattel paper that evidence such Receivable;

(f) all letter of credit rights and other security interests or liens and property subject thereto from time to time purporting to secure payment of such Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise, together with all UCC financing statements or similar filings relating thereto;

(g) all rights, interests and claims under the related Contracts and all guaranties, indemnities, insurance and other agreements (including the related Contract) or arrangements of whatever character from time to time, in each case, supporting or securing payment of such Receivable or otherwise relating to such Receivable, whether pursuant to the Contract related to such Receivable or otherwise;

(h) all books and records to the extent related to any of the foregoing, and all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, title and interest (but not obligations) in and to each Lock-Box and all Collection Accounts, into which any Collections or other proceeds with respect to such Receivables may be deposited, and any related investment property acquired with any such Collections or other proceeds (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC); and

(i) all Collections and other proceeds (as defined in the UCC) of such Receivable and any of the foregoing.

SECTION 1.2 Timing of Sales and Contributions.

Effective on the Closing Date, each Originator hereby sells to, and Mativ hereby contributes to the capital of, the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases and accepts, such Originator’s entire right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Receivable that existed and was owing to such Originator at the Cut-Off Date, (ii) each Receivable generated by such Originator from and including the Cut-Off Date, to and including the Closing Date, and (iii) all Related Rights with respect thereto.

(c) the calculations of the Purchase Price for any Receivables as provided in Section 3.3(a) and (b); and

(d) the calculations of the increase in the capital account of MativNeenah in the Buyer for contributions, and the decrease in the capital account of MativNeenah in the Buyer for any distributions made during the calendar month immediately preceding such Monthly Purchase Record Date,

For the avoidance of doubt, no failure by any Servicer to maintain any Purchase Records, or the existence of any error therein, shall derogate from the Buyer’s and its assigns’, right, title and interest in, to or under any Receivables or Related Rights conveyed or purported to be conveyed, whether by purchase or contribution, to Buyer hereunder.

SECTION 2.2 Purchase Price Calculation.

(a) The “Purchase Price” to be paid to each Originator on any Payment Date in accordance with the terms of Article III for the Receivables and the Related Rights that are purchased hereunder from such Originator (other than MativNeenah) shall be an amount equal to, with respect to each Receivable, the product of (i) lesser of (x) the face value, and (y) value assigned on the books and records of the applicable Originator, for such Receivable, multiplied by (ii) the Fair Market Value Discount. For such purpose “Fair Market Value Discount” shall be a percentage calculated to provide Buyer with a reasonable return on its investment in the Receivables after taking account of the time value of money based upon the anticipated dates of collection of the Receivables and the cost to Buyer of financing its investment in the Receivables during such period and the risk of nonpayment by the Obligors. The Originators and Buyer may agree from time to time to change the Fair Market Value Discount based on changes in one or more of such factors; provided that any change to the Fair Market Value Discount shall take effect as of the first day of a fiscal month, shall apply only prospectively and shall not affect the Purchase Price payment in respect of Receivables which came into existence during any calendar month ending prior to the calendar month during which the Originators and Buyer agree to make such change. As of the Closing Date, the Fair Market Value Discount is 99.00%.

(b) The increase in the Mativ’sNeenah’s capital account on any Payment Date in accordance with the terms of Article III for the Receivables and the Related Rights that are contributed by MativNeenah shall be an amount equal to the Purchase Price for such Receivable.

(c) “Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originators are open for business.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the sale and/or contribution of Receivables and the application of proceeds with respect thereto shall occur daily; provided that settlement as to the reporting or presentation of such transactions shall occur on the Monthly Purchase Record Date.

ARTICLE III

PURCHASE PRICE PAYMENTS AND CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

SECTION 3.1 Purchase Price Payments and Capital Contributions. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Buyer agrees to pay to each Originator the Purchase Price for the Receivables sold to the Buyer by such Originator on each Payment Date as follows (and in the following order of priority):

(a) first, the Buyer shall pay such Purchase Price to each Originator selling Receivables in cash to the extent the Buyer has cash available therefor (including after giving effect to any Investments made under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the receipt of Collections available for such purpose in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including pursuant to a Release);

(b) second, if the Seller’s Net Worth is then less than the Required Capital Amount (after giving effect to any capital contributions made by MativNeenah to the Buyer on such Payment Date), the Buyer shall set aside the amount of its cash available therefor (including after giving effect to cash payments made pursuant to clause (a) above and any Investments made under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the receipt of Collections available for such purpose in accordance with the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including pursuant to a Release) necessary to repay any Subordinated Loans on the next-occurring Settlement Date in an amount sufficient to cause the Seller’s Net Worth to no longer exceed the Required Capital Amount, which cash the Buyer (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall hold in trust for distribution (as Collections) in accordance with Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement on such next-occurring Settlement Date;

(c) third, to the extent any Purchase Price payment remains due to the Originators selling Receivables after giving effect to clauses (a) and (b) above on such Payment Date, a Subordinated Loan shall automatically be made by Neenah to the Buyer under the Subordinated Loan Agreement in an initial principal amount equal to the amount of such remaining Purchase Price payment, and Neenah (on the Buyer’s behalf) shall pay (and shall be deemed to have paid) the proceeds of such Subordinated Loan to such Originators in payment of such Purchase Price; and

(d) fourth, with respect to Receivables originated by Mativ, MativNeenah, Neenah hereby irrevocably does without further action contribute to the capital of the Buyer all such Receivables (together with their Related Rights), and the value of Mativ’sNeenah’s membership interests in the Buyer shall increase by the Purchase Price relating to such Receivables.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Collections or other cash shall be deemed available to the Buyer to make any payment contemplated by this Section unless such Collections or other cash are available to the Buyer for such purpose pursuant to the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

6

MativNeenah, as owner of all Equity Interests in the Buyer and as Servicer, shall cause any Collections that are Released to the Buyer from time to time pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement to be applied by or on behalf of the Buyer in accordance with this Section 3.1.

SECTION 3.2 [Reserved].

SECTION 3.3 Settlement as to Specific Receivables and Dilution.

(a) If on any day:

(i) any of the representations or warranties of an Originator set forth in Sections 5.8, 5.13, 5.22, 5.23, 5.24, 5.25, 5.28 or 5.29 are not true with respect to any Pool Receivable conveyed to the Buyer hereunder; or

(ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Pool Receivable conveyed to the Buyer hereunder is reduced or is cancelled as a result of (A) any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, (B) any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo, discount or other adjustment made by the Originators, any other Seller-Related Party or any Affiliate thereof, or (C) any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between any Seller-Related Party or any Affiliate thereof and an Obligor;

then, in either case, the applicable Originator shall be deemed to have received a Collection on such Pool Receivable on such day in an amount equal to (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the affected Pool Receivable’s Outstanding Balance in full, and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, amount equal to the positive difference between (A) such Pool Receivable’s Outstanding Balance prior to such reduction or cancelation and (B) such Pool Receivable’s Outstanding Balance after such reduction or cancelation. Collections deemed to have been received by the Originators pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) are referred herein to as “Deemed Collections.”

(b) If an Originator is deemed to receive any Deemed Collections pursuant to Section 3.3(a), then such Originator shall within two (2) Business Days thereof pay in cash to a Collection Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent at such time) for the benefit of the Buyer and the Purchaser Parties (as Buyer’s assignees) an amount equal to:

(i) if the Termination Date has not occurred and no Event of Default or Potential Default has occurred and is continuing, the lesser of (x) the full amount of such Deemed Collections and (y) the amount necessary (by applying such amount as a Collection pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement) to eliminate any Capital Coverage Amount Deficit (as defined therein) that exists at such time; or

SECTION 5.5 Litigation and Other Proceedings. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending, or to such Originator’s knowledge threatened, against such Originator before any Governmental Authority: (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Document, (B) seeking to prevent the grant of a security interest in any Receivable or Related Right by such Originator to the Buyer, the ownership or acquisition by the Buyer of any Receivable or Related Right or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (C) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the performance by such Originator of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (D) individually or in the aggregate for all such actions, suits, proceedings and investigations that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 5.6 No Consents. Such Originator is not required to obtain the consent of any other party or any consent, license, approval, registration, authorization or declaration of or with any Governmental Authority in connection with the execution, delivery, or performance of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party that has not already been obtained, except where the failure to obtain such consent, license, approval, registration, authorization or declaration could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 5.7 Governmental Approvals. Except where the failure to obtain or make such authorization, consent, order, approval or action could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of, or other actions by, any Governmental Authority that are required to be obtained by such Originator in connection with the grant of a security interest in the Receivables and the Related Rights to the Buyer hereunder or the due execution, delivery and performance by such Originator of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the consummation by such Originator of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect.

SECTION 5.8 Valid Sale. Each sale (or, in the case of MativNeenah , contribution) of Receivables and the Related Rights made by each Originator pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a valid sale (or, in the case of MativNeenah, contribution), transfer and assignment of Receivables and Related Rights to the Buyer, enforceable against creditors of, and purchasers from, such Originator, except (i) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (ii) as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of

termination of a Collection Account, the Administrative Agent shall have consented to such change in writing.

(x) Ownership of Buyer. MativNeenah shall at all times own 100% of the Equity Interests of the Buyer free and clear of all Adverse Claims.

SECTION 6.2 Separateness Covenants. Each Originator hereby acknowledges that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are being entered into in reliance upon the Buyer’s identity as a legal entity separate from such Originator and its Affiliates. Therefore, from and after the date hereof, such Originator shall take all reasonable steps necessary to make it apparent to third Persons that the Buyer is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of such Originators and any other Persons, and is not a division of any Originator, its Affiliates or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to and consistent with the other covenants set forth herein, each Originator shall take such actions as shall be required in order that:

(a) such Originator (other than MativNeenah , solely in accordance with its rights and obligations under the Buyer’s limited liability company agreement) shall not be involved in the day to day management of the Buyer;

(b) such Originator shall maintain separate records and books of account from the Buyer and otherwise will observe corporate formalities and have a separate area from the Buyer for its business (which may be located at the same address as the Buyer, and, to the extent that it and the Buyer have offices in the same location, there shall be a fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs between them, and each shall bear its fair share of such expenses);

(c) the financial statements and books and records of such Originator shall be prepared after the date of creation of the Buyer to reflect and shall reflect the separate existence of the Buyer; provided, that the Buyer’s assets and liabilities may be included in a consolidated financial statement issued by an Affiliate of the Buyer; provided, however, that any such consolidated financial statement or the notes thereto shall make clear that the Buyer’s assets are not available to satisfy the obligations of such Affiliate;

(d) except as permitted by the Receivables Purchase Agreement, (i) such Originator shall maintain its assets (including deposit accounts) separately from the assets (including deposit accounts) of the Buyer and (ii) such Originator’s assets, and records relating thereto, have not been, are not, and shall not be, commingled with those of the Buyer;

(e) such Originator shall not act as an agent for the Buyer (except in the capacity of Servicer or a Sub-Servicer);

(f) such Originator shall not conduct any of the business of the Buyer in its own name (except in the capacity of Servicer or a Sub-Servicer);
