The Issuer shall reimburse the Noteholders for reasonable and documented expenses related to such visits and inspections. Each Securitization Party and each Noteholder and the representative of any such regulatory authority designated by the related Noteholder to view such information shall and shall cause their representatives to hold in confidence all such information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law (and all reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to the extent that such Noteholder and the Issuer may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with their obligations hereunder.

Each Securitization Party will save each holder of a Note to the extent permitted by applicable law harmless against any loss or Liability resulting from nonpayment or delay in payment of any such tax or fee required to be paid by any Securitization Party hereunder.

Section 8.3.Indemnification. Each Securitization Party agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold each holder of the Notes and each of its Related Parties (each an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any damage, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) which such Indemnitee may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (a) any breach by such Securitization Party, of any warranty,

covenant, term or condition in, or the occurrence of any default under, this Agreement, together with all expenses resulting from the compromise or defense of any claims or liabilities arising as a result of any such breach or default, (b) any legal action commenced to challenge the validity or enforceability of this Agreement and (c) enforcing or defending (or determining whether or how to enforce or defend) the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that with respect to any legal or other expenses incurred by Indemnitees in connection with investigating or defending such damage, loss, cost or expense as such are incurred, including but not limited to each Indemnitee’s reasonable costs of defending itself against any claim or bringing any claim to enforce the indemnification or other obligations of a Securitization Party, such legal or other expenses shall be reimbursed to such Indemnitee by the Securitization Parties; provided further, that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to Losses or related legal or other expenses to the extent they represent Losses on the Notes or the Loan Assets arising out of any credit related reasons (including discharge in bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings) with respect to any underling obligor on a receivable or other payment instrument that is part of the collateral. For purposes of this Section 8.3, any claim of, and losses resulting from, any breach of any representation or warranty or covenant made by a Securitization Party in this Agreement or the other Basic Documents shall be determined without regard to any materiality, context of disclosure, knowledge or other similar qualification contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation, warranty or covenant. The rights and remedies provided for in this Section 8.3 without prejudice to any additional indemnities the Indemnitees may have under any other Basic Document including with respect to any indemnification obligations incurred in favor of the Noteholders by any Securitization Party, are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Purchaser Indemnified Person at law or in equity. In addition, each of Securitization Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Placement Agent Party and each of their related entities, direct or indirect equity holders, members, directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants and legal counsel and each of its and their respective heirs, successors and assigns (each, a “Placement Agent Indemnified Person”) on the same terms, mutatis mutandis, as the indemnity provided by the applicable Securitization Parties under the applicable engagement letter originally entered into between Parent and the Placement Agent. The rights of each Purchaser or the Placement Agent Party as set forth in this Section 8.3 shall be in addition to any rights of any Purchaser or Placement Agent Party hereunder.

Section 8.4.Survival. The obligations of the Securitization Parties under this Section 8 shall survive the payment or transfer of any Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Indenture, any other Basic Document or the Notes, and the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Placement Agent. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnitee or Placement Agent Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

All statements contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of any Securitization Party to the Indenture Trustee or any holder pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of such Securitization Party, made jointly and severally, under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the Notes and any Basic Document embody the entire agreement and understanding between each Purchaser and the Securitization Parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, including as documented in any engagement letter (except as specifically set forth therein), relating to the subject matter hereof.

Section 10.AMENDMENT AND WAIVER.

Section 10.1.Requirements. This Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of the Securitization Parties and the Required Holders, except that:

(a)no amendment or waiver of any of Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 14 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used therein), will be effective as to any Purchaser unless consented to by such Purchaser in writing;

(b)to the extent any amendment or waiver will have a disproportionate impact on the Class A Notes or the Class B Notes, respectively, the consent of the holders of at least 50% in principal amount of the Class A Notes or Class B Notes, as applicable, at the time outstanding (exclusive of Notes then owned by the Securitization Parties or any of their Affiliates) shall be required; and

(c)no amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of each Purchaser and the holder of each Note at the time outstanding, (i) change the percentage of the principal amount of the Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any amendment or waiver, or (ii) amend any of this Section 10 or Section 13;

(d)no amendment or waiver to any Section, term or provision hereof which would adversely affect any right or remedy of the Placement Agent shall be effective unless the same shall be consented to in writing by the Placement Agent; and

The Securitization Parties will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 10 to each holder of a Note promptly following the date on which it is executed and delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of Notes.

Any consent given pursuant to this Section 10 by a holder of a Note that has transferred or has agreed to transfer its Note to (i) the Securitization Parties, (ii) any Securitization Party or any other Affiliate or (iii) any other Person in connection with, or in anticipation of, such other Person acquiring, making a tender offer for or merging with any Securitization Party and/or any of its Affiliates (either pursuant to a waiver under Section 10.1(c)), in each case in connection with such consent, shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder, and any amendments effected or waivers granted or to be effected or granted that would not have been or would not be so effected or granted but for such consent (and the consents of all other holders of Notes that were acquired under the same or similar conditions) shall be void and of no force or effect except solely as to such holder.

Section 10.3.Binding Effect, Etc. Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 10 applies equally to all holders of Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any Note and upon the Securitization Parties without regard to whether such Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between any Securitization Party and any holder of a Note and no delay in exercising any rights hereunder or under any Note or any other Basic Document shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such Note.

Section 10.4.Notes Held by any Securitization Party, Etc. Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or consent to be given under this Agreement, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, Notes directly or indirectly owned by any Securitization Party or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

Section 12.REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS.

This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including without limitation (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the Notes themselves), and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, electronic, digital, or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. Each Securitization Party agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 12 shall not prohibit the Securitization Parties or any other holder of Notes from contesting any such reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction.

Section 13.CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

For the purposes of this Section 13, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser or the Placement Agent by or on behalf of any Securitization Party or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise

adequately identified when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of such Securitization Party or such Subsidiary, provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on such Purchaser’s behalf, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through disclosure by any Securitization Party or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Section 5.5 hereof that are otherwise publicly available. Each Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser, provided that such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, trustees and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of the investment represented by its Notes), (ii) its auditors, financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with this Section 13, (iii) any other holder of any Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which it sells or offers to sell such Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by this Section 13), (v) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vi) the NAIC or the SVO or, in each case, any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio, or (vii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s Notes, this Agreement or any other Basic Document. Each holder of a Note, by its acceptance of a Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 13 as though it were a party to this Agreement. The Securitization Parties and the Purchasers hereby agree that, on the Closing Date, any existing confidentiality agreements between the Securitization Parties and any Purchaser (or any of Affiliates, representatives or investment advisors of any Purchaser and their respective Affiliates and representatives) shall be terminated and the provisions of this Section 13 shall take the place thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Purchaser and the Placement Agent may, only after the Securitization Parties have made such information public, place customary advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of customary information on the internet or worldwide web, and circulate similar promotional materials, in each case, after the Closing Date in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing the names of the Securitization Parties and their affiliates, and the amount, type and closing date of the Notes and the Contemplated Transactions, at its own expense; provided, however, that no such tombstone, promotional announcement or other marketing material will disclose the name of any Purchaser without such Purchaser’s prior written consent acting in its sole discretion.

In the event that as a condition to receiving access to information relating to the Securitization Parties or their Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, any Purchaser or holder of a Note is required to agree to a confidentiality undertaking (whether through IntraLinks, another secure website, a secure virtual workspace or otherwise) which is different from this Section 13, this Section 13 shall not be amended thereby and, as between such Purchaser or such holder and Securitization Parties, this Section 13 shall supersede any such other confidentiality undertaking.

Section 14.SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER.

Each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any one of its affiliates, managed accounts, Related Funds or another Purchaser or any one of such other Purchaser’s affiliates, managed accounts or Related Funds (a “Substitute Purchaser”) as the purchaser of the Notes that it has agreed to purchase hereunder or as the holder of a Note that it has already purchased, by written notice to the Issuer, which notice shall be signed by both such Purchaser and such Substitute Purchaser, shall contain such Substitute Purchaser’s agreement to be bound by this Agreement and shall contain a confirmation by such Substitute Purchaser of the accuracy with respect to it of the representations set forth in Section 6 hereof. Upon receipt of such notice, any reference to such Purchaser in this Agreement (other than in this Section 14), shall be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser in lieu of such original Purchaser. In the event that such Substitute Purchaser is so substituted as a Purchaser hereunder and such Substitute Purchaser thereafter transfers to such original Purchaser all of the Notes then held by such Substitute Purchaser, upon receipt by the Issuer of notice of such transfer, any reference to such Substitute Purchaser as a “Purchaser” in this Agreement (other than in this Section 14), shall no longer be deemed to refer to such Substitute Purchaser, but shall refer to such original Purchaser, and such original Purchaser shall again have all the rights of an original holder of the Notes under this Agreement.

Section 15.MISCELLANEOUS.

Section 15.1.Successors and Assigns. All covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns (including any subsequent holder of a Note) whether so expressed or not, except that, subject to Section 10.2(b) hereof, the Securitization Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes without the prior written consent of each holder. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the Placement Agent and the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 15.2.Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by law) not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 15.3.Construction, Etc. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

Defined terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) subject to Section 15.1 hereof, any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Sections and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Sections of, and Schedules to, this Agreement, and (e) any reference to any law or regulation herein shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.

Section 15.4.Counterparts; Electronic Contracting. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile and other electronic means of transmission), each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto.

The parties agree to electronic contracting and signatures with respect to this Agreement and the other Basic Documents (other than the Notes). Delivery of an electronic signature to, or a signed copy of, this Agreement and such other Basic Documents (other than the Notes) by facsimile, email or other electronic transmission shall be fully binding on the parties to the same extent as the delivery of the signed originals and shall be admissible into evidence for all purposes. The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents (other than the Notes) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Securitization Parties, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws

based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Purchaser shall request manually signed counterpart signatures to any Basic Document, the Securitization Parties hereby agree to use their reasonable endeavors to provide such manually signed signature pages as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within thirty (30) days of such request or such longer period as the requesting Purchaser and the Securitization Parties may mutually agree).

The parties agree to electronic contracting and signatures with respect to each Note delivered hereunder in registered form. Delivery of an electronic signature to, or a signed copy of, any Note in the name of a particular Purchaser by facsimile, email or other electronic transmission shall be fully binding on the Issuer to the same extent as the delivery of the signed original of any such Note and shall be admissible into evidence for all purposes, and the Issuer hereby expressly waive any defense related to a Purchaser’s failure to present an original Note. The Issuer further agrees that it shall produce a manually signed Note for delivery to each Purchaser in accordance with the instructions provided by such Purchaser as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within five (5) Business Days of such request or such longer period as the requesting Purchaser and the Issuer may mutually agree).

Section 15.5.Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND THE RIGHTS OF THE PARTIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK EXCLUDING CHOICE-OF-LAW PRINCIPLES OF THE LAW OF SUCH STATE THAT WOULD PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH STATE.

Section 15.6.Jurisdiction and Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.
