AND PURCHASE AND CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
(Ferguson Receivables, LLC)
This Omnibus Amendment (this “Amendment”) is entered into by the undersigned parties as of December 8, 2021, and amends the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of July
31, 2013, as previously amended, supplemented or modified through the date hereof (the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), among FERGUSON RECEIVABLES, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”), FERGUSON ENTERPRISES, LLC (formerly Ferguson Enterprises, Inc.), a Virginia limited liability company (the “Servicer”), the Originators party thereto from time to time, the Conduit Purchasers listed on Schedule I thereto from time to time, the Committed Purchasers listed on Schedule I thereto from time to time, the LC Banks listed on Schedule III thereto from time to time, the Facility Agents listed on Schedule I thereto from time to time, ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as the administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and FERGUSON PLC (formerly Wolseley plc),
a company incorporated in Jersey and having registration number 128484 (the “Parent”) and the Purchase and Contribution Agreement dated as of July 31, 2013, as previously amended, supplemented or modified through the date hereof (the “Purchase and Contribution Agreement”), between the Seller, Ferguson and the other Originators.
Preliminary Statement: The Seller and the Servicer have requested the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents to increase the size of the Facility and to make certain other amendments to the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Purchase and Contribution Agreement, and the Administrative Agent and the Facility Agents signatory hereto are willing to agree to such increase and amendments in accordance
with the terms hereof. Therefore, the parties hereto agree as follows:
Defined Terms; References. Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein has the meaning given such term in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. The Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Purchase and Contribution Agreement are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Amendment Documents”. Unless the context of this Amendment otherwise clearly requires, references to the plural include the singular, references to the part include the whole and the words “include”, “including” and “includes” shall be deemed to be followed by “without limitation”. Each reference to “hereof”, “hereunder”, “herein” and “hereby”, and similar terms
in this Amendment refer to this Amendment as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Amendment. All references to an Amendment Document in any other document or instrument shall be deemed to mean the applicable Amendment Document, as amended by this Amendment. This Amendment shall not constitute a novation of either Amendment Document, but shall constitute an amendment to each of them. The parties hereto agree to be bound by the terms and obligations of the Amendment Documents, as amended by this Amendment, as though the terms and obligations of each Amendment Document were set forth herein.

The following proviso is hereby added to the end of the first sentence of Section 7.02(l) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement to allow the commingling of certain Collections of Acquisition Receivables and Section 7.02(l) now reads as follows:

an aggregate amount not in excess of $15,000,000 (as determined on the last day of each Calculation Period and reported in the related Monthly Report) until the applicable Inclusion Date for such Acquisition Receivables (after which Inclusion Date, no such limit will apply).
