WHEREAS, the parties hereto mutually desire to amend the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Amendments to Note Purchase Agreement. The Company and the undersigned holders of the Notes hereby agree that as of the Effective Date (as defined in Section 2 below), without any further action, the Note Purchase Agreement shall be amended as follows:

1.1. Section 7.1. Section 7.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement is amended by adding the following new paragraph (i):

(i) Supplemental Financial Reporting – at all times after the Effective Date, except as otherwise required by Section 8.7(a), (a) within 10 Business Days after the end of each fiscal month of the Company, written notice of any Monetization Event of the Company or any Subsidiary (other than a Non-Recourse Financing Subsidiary) during the previous fiscal month, together with a forecast of the Monetization Events expected to occur in the then-current fiscal month and (b) at least 15 days prior written notice of the Company’s intent to notify the 2006-1 CLO Trustee under the 2006-1 CLO Indenture of the termination of the Reinvestment Period (as defined in the 2006-1 CLO Indenture) pursuant to subsection (c) of the definition thereof.

1.2. Section 8.7. The Note Purchase Agreement shall be amended by adding the following new Section 8.7 as follows:

Section 8.7 Monetization Repurchase Events.

The occurrence of Monetization Events shall require the Company to make Monetization Payment Offers as set forth in this Section 8.7.

(a) Notice of Monetization Event. At least five Business Days before each Monetization Payment Offer Date, the Company shall give written notice setting forth each Monetization Event which has occurred since the previous Monetization Payment Notice Date to each holder of Notes. Such notice shall contain and constitute a Monetization Payment Offer as further described in subparagraph (b) of this Section 8.7 and shall be accompanied by the certificate described in subparagraph (e) of this Section 8.7.

(b) Offer to Purchase Notes. Each Monetization Payment Offer shall be an offer to purchase, in accordance with and subject to this Section 8.7 (and without duplication of any Monetization Payment Offer under and as defined in Section 8.7 of the Series 2005-A Notes), an aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the Monetization Payment Offer Price in an amount equal to the Series 2007-A Monetization Payment Offer Amount.

(c) Acceptance; Notice of Acceptance. A holder of Notes may accept or decline a Monetization Payment Offer made pursuant to this Section 8.7 by causing a notice of such acceptance or rejection to be delivered to the Company at least 3 Business Days prior to the Monetization Payment Offer Date. A failure by a holder of Notes to respond to any Monetization Payment Offer made pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be deemed to constitute an acceptance of such Monetization Payment Offer by such holder.

(d) Repurchase. On each Monetization Payment Offer Date, in addition to the Monetization Payment Offer Price, the Company shall also pay accrued interest on the Notes purchased in connection with the relevant Monetization Payment Offer through and including the Monetization Payment Offer Date. For the avoidance of doubt, on any relevant Monetization Payment Offer Date, the sum of the Series 2005-A Monetization Payment Offer Amount and the Series 2007-A Monetization Payment Offer Amount shall equal the Available Monetization Proceeds. The Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be purchased without any Make-Whole Amount. The purchase shall be made on the Monetization Payment Offer Date.

(e) Officer’s Certificate. Each Monetization Payment Offer pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be accompanied by a certificate, executed by a Responsible Officer of the Company and dated the date of such offer, specifying: (i) the Monetization Payment Offer Date; (ii) that such Monetization Payment Offer is made pursuant to this Section 8.7; (iii) the Available Monetization Proceeds for which such Monetization Payment Offer was made; and (iv) that the conditions of this Section 8.7 have been fulfilled.

(f) Allocation of Available Monetization Proceeds. If a Monetization Payment Offer pursuant to this Section 8.7 has been accepted by only one holder of the Notes, all of the Series 2007-A Monetization Payment Offer Amount will be applied on the Monetization Payment Offer Date to the payment of the principal of the Notes of such holder, and if more than one holder has accepted such offer, all of the Series 2007-A Monetization Payment Offer Amount will be applied on the Monetization Payment Offer Date to the principal of the Notes at the time outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts of such holders.

1.3. Section 10.1. Section 10.1 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

(b) Section 10.5 of the Note Purchase Agreement shall be amended by adding the following new subsection (e) as follows:

(e) After the commencement of the Amortization Period under and as defined in the CLFT Sale and Servicing Agreement or the acceleration of maturity as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under and as defined in the 2006-1 CLO Indenture, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets to either CLFT or 2006-1 CLO, respectively; provided, however that the Company may and may permit their Subsidiaries to engage in transactions in order to facilitate substitutions of collateral in compliance with the documents governing such facilities and otherwise in the ordinary course of business of the Company or such Subsidiary (such transaction being referred to herein as a “Permitted Substitution”) so long as the total amount of Permitted Substitutions with respect to either CLFT or 2006-1 CLO, respectively, does not, in any 12 month period, exceed (i) $15,000,000 at any time prior to the date that the Company has offered at least $35,000,000 in Monetization Payment Offers (collectively to the holders of the Notes and the Series 2005-A Notes) and (ii) $30,000,000 at any time following the date that the Company has offered at least $35,000,000 in Monetization Payment Offers (collectively to the holders of the Notes and the Series 2005-A Notes).
