• Assignment and Subcontracting This Agreement shall extend to and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not be assignable by the Trust without the prior written consent of GFS. GFS may subcontract any or all of its responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement to one or more companies, trusts, firms, individuals or associations, which may or may not be affiliated persons of GFS and which agree to comply with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that any such subcontracting shall not relieve GFS of its responsibilities hereunder. GFS may pay such persons for their services, but no such payment will increase fees due from the Trust hereunder.

• Assignment and Conveyance 1. The Assignor hereby conveys, sells, grants, transfers and assigns to the Assignee all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor, as purchaser, in, to and under (a) those certain Mortgage Loans listed on the schedule (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule") attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Mortgage Loans") and (b) except as described below, that certain Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated as of [DATE], between the Assignor, as purchaser (the "Purchaser"), and the Company, as seller, solely insofar as the Purchase Agreement relates to the Mortgage Loans.

Recognition of the Company

• Assignment and Succession The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon its respective successors and assigns, and the Executive’s rights and obligations hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon his Designated Successors. The Executive may not assign any obligations or responsibilities he has under this Agreement.

• Assignment and Participation It is understood and agreed that each Bank shall have the right to assign at any time all or any portion of its Commitment and interests in the risk relating to the Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit hereunder in an amount equal to or greater than $2,500,000 (which assignment shall be of an equal percentage of its Commitment, the Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent) to any Eligible Assignees with the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and, if no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrowers, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may assign without the consent of the Borrowers such portion of its Commitment and interests in the risk relating to the Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit necessary to reach its desired hold level. Any Bank may at any time, and from time to time, assign to any Bank Affiliate of such Bank all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. It is further agreed that each assignee which executes and delivers to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers hereunder an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto together with an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 payable by the assigning Bank to the Administrative Agent, shall, on the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, become a party to this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents for all purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and its portion of the Commitment, the Loans and Letters of Credit shall be as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance. The Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement. Upon the execution and delivery of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Borrowers shall issue to the assignee a Note in the amount of such assignee’s Commitment, dated the date of the assignment and otherwise completed in substantially the form of Exhibit B and to the extent any assigning Bank has retained a portion of its obligations hereunder, an appropriate replacement Note to the assigning Bank reflecting its assignment; (b) the Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrowers, the Banks and such assignee a schedule reflecting such changes; and (c) this Credit Agreement shall be appropriately amended to reflect (i) the status of the assignee as a party hereto and (ii) the status and rights of the Banks hereunder. Each Bank shall also have the right to grant participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions in its Commitment, the Loans and outstanding Letters of Credit. The documents evidencing any such participation shall limit such participating bank or financial institutions voting rights solely to those matters set forth in §14.8 which require the vote of each Bank directly affected thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment or participation shall operate to increase the Commitment hereunder or otherwise alter the substantive terms of this Credit Agreement, and no Bank which retains a Commitment hereunder shall have a Commitment of less than $2,500,000, as such amount may be reduced upon reductions in the Total Commitment pursuant to §2.2 hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §18, any Bank (a “Granting Bank”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”) of such Granting Bank, identified as such in writing from time to time delivered by the Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Credit Agreement, provided that (a) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPV, (b) the Granting Bank’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (c) the Granting Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement and (d) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Bank. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any expense reimbursement, indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Credit Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Bank). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the later of (i) the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPV and (ii) the Maturity Date, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §18, any SPV may (A) with notice to, but (except as specified below) without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Bank or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPV to fund the Loans made by such SPV or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPV to fund such Loans and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans (other than financial statements referred to in §5.4 or §6.4) to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. In no event shall the Borrowers be obligated to pay to an SPV that has made a Loan any greater amount than the Borrowers would have been obligated to pay under this Agreement if the Granting Bank had made such Loan. An amendment to this paragraph without the written consent of an SPV shall be ineffective insofar as it alters the rights and obligations of such SPV. Anything contained in this §18 to the contrary notwithstanding, any Bank may at any time pledge, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Credit Agreement (including all or any portion of its Notes) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. 341. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Bank from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

Any assignment by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that any assignment to Black Diamond Capital Management or any of its Affiliates shall require the consent of Borrower so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 8.1(a)(i), 8.1(a)(ii), 8.1(h) or 8.1(i) has occurred and is then continuing), and the execution of an assignment agreement (an "Assignment Agreement") substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.1(a) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) after giving effect to any such partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall have Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the assigning Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $2,500,000; and (iv) include a payment to Agent of an assignment fee of $3,500. In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all

Tenant shall not assign this Lease without the exclusive prior written consent of Landlord and any mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may assign this Lease to any person which is a successor to Tenant as permitted by the terms of the Note Agreement. If this Lease is assigned, Lessor may collect Base Rent and Additional Rent directly from such assignee. If any part of the Demised Premises is sublet and any Event of Default exists hereunder, Landlord may collect Base Rent and Additional Rent from such subtenant. Any assignment or sublease shall require the assignee or subtenant to comply with all terms of this Lease except for any sublease term, which shall be at Tenant's discretion (but in no event extend beyond the term of this Lease), and a duplicate original of such sublease or assignment shall be delivered to Landlord at least ten (10) days prior to the commencement of such sublease or assignment. Any assignee shall assume, by instrument in form and content satisfactory to Landlord, the due performance of all of Tenant's obligations under this Lease, including any accrued obligations at the time of the effective date of the assignment, and such assumption agreement shall state that the same is made by the assignee for the express benefit of Landlord as a third party beneficiary thereof. Each sublease permitted hereby shall be subject and subordinate to all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease and to all of the rights of Landlord hereunder; and in the event this Lease shall terminate before the expiration of such sublease, the sublessee thereunder will, at Landlord's option, attorn to Landlord and waive any rights the sublessee may have to terminate the sublease or to surrender possession thereunder, as a result of the termination of this Lease. No sublease shall be permitted hereby unless as a condition to effectiveness thereof, Tenant shall have assigned to Landlord and Landlord shall have effectively assigned to mortgagee such sublease. Tenant agrees to pay on behalf of Landlord any and all costs of Landlord or otherwise occasioned by such assignment or subletting, including without limitation, the cost of any alteration, addition, improvement or other renovation or refurbishment to the Demised Premises made in connection with such assignment or subletting and any cost imposed by any governmental authority in connection with any of the foregoing. No assignment or sublease shall be made unless any guarantor of the Tenant's obligations or any party responsible for Tenant's obligations shall give its written consent to such assignment or sublease and confirm that its obligations shall not be affected by such assignment or sublease, and, provided, further, that if any modification to the Lease is proposed to be made after such assignment or sublease, then, at Landlord's or mortgagee's option, all prior assignors and sublessors, and all such obligated parties, shall be required to confirm in writing their approval of such modification, and that their obligations continue as to the Lease as so modified. No assignment or subletting under this paragraph shall relieve Tenant (or any guarantor of Tenant's obligations under the Lease or any assignee) of its obligations hereunder. Any assignment or subletting of this Lease which is not in compliance with the provisions of this paragraph shall be of no effect and void. Except as permitted hereby, Tenant shall not transfer, sublet, assign or otherwise encumber its interest in the Lease or the Demised Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Lease to the contrary and notwithstanding any consent by Landlord to any sublease of the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, or to any assignment of this Lease or of Tenant's interest or estate in the Demised Premises, no sublessee shall assign its sublease nor further sublease the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, and no assignee shall further assign or sublet its interest in this Lease or its interest or estate in the Demised Premises, or any portion thereof, without Landlord's prior written consent in each and every instance which consent may be withheld or delayed as above provided. No such further assignment or subleasing shall relieve Tenant from any of Tenant's obligations in this Lease contained.
