Termination of Agent The Agent may be terminated at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice from the Lead Securitization Noteholder. In the event that the Agent is terminated pursuant to this Section 31, all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be terminated, other than any rights or obligations that accrued prior to the date of such termination. The Agent may resign at any time upon notice, so long as a successor Agent, reasonably satisfactory to the Noteholders, has agreed to be bound by this Agreement and perform the duties of the Agent hereunder. GSBI, as Initial Agent, may transfer its rights and obligations to a Servicer, as successor Agent, at any time without the consent of any Noteholder. GSBI, as Initial Agent, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause such Servicer to act as successor Agent, and, if such Servicer declines to act in such capacity, shall promptly and diligently attempt to cause a similar servicer to act as successor Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Noteholders hereby agree that, simultaneously with the closing of the Lead Securitization, the Certificate Administrator shall be deemed to have been automatically appointed as the successor Agent under this Agreement in place of the Initial Agent or any successor thereto prior to such Securitization without any further notice or other action. The termination or resignation of the Certificate Administrator, as Certificate Administrator under the Servicing Agreement, shall be deemed a termination or resignation of such Certificate Administrator as Agent under this Agreement.

Appointment Authority and Duties of Agent 13.1.1. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and designates BofA as Agent to act as herein specified. Agent may, and each Lender by becoming a party to this Agreement shall be deemed irrevocably to have authorized Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is or is intended to be a party and all amendments hereto and all Security Documents at any time executed by any Obligor, for its benefit and the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders and, except as otherwise provided in this Section 13, to exercise such rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such other rights and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by Agent or the Required Lenders of any of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver, as Agent, each Loan Document (including each Lien Waiver and Subordination Agreement) and accept delivery of each such agreement by any Obligor or any other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by this Agreement or the Security Documents and, subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, for all other purposes stated therein, provided that Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender to act as a collateral sub-agent for Agent and the other Lenders for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens with respect to an Obligor’s Deposit Accounts maintained with, and all cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender; (d) subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, manage, supervise or otherwise deal with the Collateral; and (e) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms of this Agreement and subject to the direction of the Required Lenders, exercise all remedies given to Agent with respect to any of the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship with any Lender (or any Lender’s participants). Unless and until its authority to do so is revoked in writing by Required Lenders, Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory (basing such determination in each case upon the meanings given to such terms in Section 1), or whether to impose or release any reserve, and to exercise its own Credit Judgment in connection therewith, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Agent from any liability to Lenders or any other Person for any errors in judgment.
13.1.2. Agent (which term, as used in this sentence, shall include reference to Agent’s officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and Affiliates and to the officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents of Agent’s Affiliates) shall not: (a) have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (b) be required to take, initiate or conduct any Enforcement Action (including any litigation, foreclosure or collection proceedings hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents) except to the extent directed to do so in writing by the Required Lenders during the continuance of any Event of Default. The conferral upon Agent of any right hereunder shall not imply a duty on Agent’s part to exercise any such right unless instructed to do so by the Required Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.
13.1.3. Agent may perform any of its duties by or through its agents and employees and may employ one or more Agent Professionals and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care. Obligors shall promptly (and in any event, on demand) reimburse Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including all Extraordinary Expenses) incurred by Agent pursuant to any of the provisions hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents or in the execution of any of Agent’s duties hereby or thereby created or in the exercise of any right or power herein or therein imposed or conferred upon it or Lenders (excluding, however, general overhead and other in-house expenses, except as expressly permitted hereunder), and each Lender agrees promptly to pay to Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of any such reimbursement for expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) that is not timely made by Obligors to Agent.
13.1.4. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges conferred upon Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents may be exercised by Agent without the necessity of the joinder of any other parties unless otherwise required by Applicable Law. If Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents pursuant to or in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders except for Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any action taken by it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Agent shall not be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to Applicable Law or the terms of any of the Loan Documents or that would in its reasonable opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to personal liability.
13.1.5. Agent shall promptly, upon receipt thereof, forward to each Lender (i) copies of any significant written notices, reports, certificates and other information received by Agent from any Obligor (but only if and to the extent such Obligor is not required by the terms of the Loan Documents to supply such information directly to Lenders) and (ii) copies of the results of any field audits or other examinations made or prepared by or on behalf of Agent with respect to Obligors or the Collateral (each, a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”).
