• The Backup Servicer (a) Prior to assuming any of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder the Backup Servicer shall only be required to perform those duties specifically imposed upon it by the provisions of this Agreement and the Backup Servicing Agreement, and no implied obligations shall be read into this Agreement and therein against the Backup Servicer. Such duties generally relate to following the provisions herein and therein which would permit the Backup Servicer to assume some or all of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder (as modified or limited herein or in the Backup Servicing Agreement) with reasonable dispatch, following written notice. The Backup Servicer, prior to assuming any of the Servicer’s duties hereunder, may not resign hereunder unless it arranges for a successor Backup Servicer reasonably acceptable to the Servicer and the Seller, with not less than thirty (30) days’ notice delivered to the Servicer and the Seller. The Backup Servicer shall have no obligations or duties under any agreement to which it is not a party, including but not limited to the various agreements named herein.

• Backup Servicer If a Servicer Default shall occur, then the Controlling Holders may, by notice to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Backup Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Servicer of such notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Pledged Assets or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer appointed by the Controlling Holders pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer appointed hereunder is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the Servicer under this Agreement. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Lenders and the Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, providing notification to the Obligors of the assignment of the servicing function, providing the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, at the Servicer’s expense, with all records, in electronic or other form, reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, in such form as the Backup Servicer may reasonably request and at such times as the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer may reasonably request, to enable such Person to assume the servicing functions hereunder and the transfer to such Person for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time should be or should have been deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account or thereafter be received by the Servicer with respect to the Pledged Receivables. Additionally, the Servicer agrees to cooperate in providing, at the Servicer’s expense, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer as successor Servicer, with reasonable access (including at the premises of the Servicer) to Servicer’s employees and any and all books, records or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder. Neither any Lender nor the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer shall be deemed to have breached any obligation hereunder as a result of a failure to make or delay in making any distribution as and when required hereunder caused by the failure of the Servicer to remit any amounts received by it or to deliver any documents held by it with respect to the Pledged Assets. The Backup Servicer (including as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer hereunder. The Active Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) on and after the date, if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this Section. The Standby Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(a) prior to the date, if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this Section. Any obligations of LEAF Financial under any Transaction Document other than in its capacity as Servicer shall continue in effect notwithstanding LEAF Financial’s termination as Servicer. On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination (with a copy delivered to the Backup Servicer) pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer shall be (and the Backup Servicer hereby agrees to be) the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject thereafter to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Section 6.13 shall not be considered a default by the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer hereunder; provided, further, however, that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer, as successor Servicer, shall have (i) no liability with respect to any obligation which was required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer shall pay any income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, and (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including the original Servicer. The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, neither the Backup Servicer nor any other successor Servicer shall have any liability relating to the representations and warranties of the Servicer contained in Article IV. Notwithstanding the above, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (or, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, the Primary Lender under the related Loan Agreement) may, or shall, if the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer is unable to so act, appoint itself, or appoint any other established servicing institution acceptable to the Lenders in their sole discretion, as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, and after the Lenders notify the Servicer to discontinue performing servicing functions under this Agreement, the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer (or Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (or, following the Collateral Split Effective Date, the Primary Lender under the related Loan Agreement) if there is no Backup Servicer or other successor Servicer) shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Lenders may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Pledged Receivables as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that, except as provided herein, no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer hereunder, unless (i) agreed to by the Lenders and (ii) such compensation shall be on commercially competitive terms and rates. The Borrower, the Lenders and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The parties hereto agree that in no event will the Backup Servicer or any other successor Servicer be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages. Each of the Backup Servicer and any other successor Servicer hereby agrees that it shall, and shall take all actions necessary so that it shall at all times be ready to, assume all the rights and powers and all of the responsibilities, obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder, within ten (10) Business Days of receiving from a Lender a notice requesting the Backup Servicer or such other successor Servicer to do so.

If any error, inaccuracy, commission or incorrect or nonstandard practice or procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such Errors cause Lyon Financial Services, Inc. to make or continue any errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no liability for such Continued Errors; provided, however, that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. agrees to use its best efforts to prevent Continued Errors. In the event that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall, with the prior consent of the Lenders, use commercially reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile any affected data to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors. Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended as Servicer Advances in accordance with Section 2.04(a) hereof.

The Custodian or its successors in acting hereunder shall be authorized to act as custodian in the Cayman Islands and shall be subject at all times and in all respects to the direction of the Depositary for the Deposited Property for which the Custodian acts as custodian and shall be responsible solely to it. If any Custodian resigns or is discharged from its duties hereunder with respect to any Deposited Property and no other Custodian has previously been appointed hereunder, the Depositary shall promptly appoint a substitute custodian. The Depositary shall require such resigning or discharged Custodian to Deliver, or cause the Delivery of, the Deposited Property held by it, together with all such records maintained by it as Custodian with respect to such Deposited Property as the Depositary may request, to the Custodian designated by the Depositary.

Immediately upon any such change, the Depositary shall give notice thereof in writing to all Holders of ADSs, each other Custodian and the Company. Citibank may at any time act as Custodian of the Deposited Property pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, in which case any reference to Custodian shall mean Citibank solely in its capacity as Custodian pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Deposit Agreement or any ADR to the contrary, the Depositary shall not be obligated to give notice to the Company, any Holders of ADSs or any other Custodian of its acting as Custodian pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. Upon the appointment of any successor depositary, any Custodian then acting hereunder shall, unless otherwise instructed by the Depositary, continue to be the Custodian of the Deposited Property without any further act or writing, and shall be subject to the direction of the successor depositary. The successor depositary so appointed shall, nevertheless, on the written request of any Custodian, execute and deliver to such Custodian all such instruments as may be proper to give to such Custodian full and complete power and authority to act on the direction of such successor depositary.

With respect to each Serviced Loan Combination, the Custodian shall also hold the portion of such Mortgage File that relates to the Serviced Companion Loan in such Loan Combination in trust for the use and benefit of the related Serviced Companion Loan Holder.

Any Custodian may resign and be discharged from its duties hereunder by notice of such resignation delivered to the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the date on which such resignation is to become effective.

• Servicer and Backup Servicer Not to Resign Subject to the provisions of Section 8.4, neither the Servicer nor the Backup Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties imposed on it by this Agreement as Servicer or Backup Servicer except upon a determination that by reason of a change in legal requirements the performance of its duties under this Agreement would cause it to be in violation of such legal requirements in a manner which would have a material adverse effect on the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, if the Majority Noteholders do not elect to waive the obligations of the Servicer or the Backup Servicer, as the case may be, to perform the duties which render it legally unable to act or to delegate those duties to another Person.
