(a) On the basis of the representations and warranties and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents, the Issuer agrees to deliver on the Closing Date, to each of the Persons set forth on Schedule 2, a Note with a maximum aggregate principal amount of up to the amount set forth opposite such Person’s name on Schedule 2. The Notes shall be duly executed by the Issuer, duly authenticated by the Indenture Trustee and registered in the name of each of the Persons set forth on Schedule 2 or its nominee. In connection with any transfer of a Note made in accordance with Section 202 of the Supplement (including the related Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment), the Issuer agrees to deliver a Note in the name of such transferee or its nominee on behalf of such transferee in the maximum aggregate principal amount determined pursuant to the related Assignment and Acceptance. Any such assignment of a Series 2011-1 Note and all or a portion of the Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment of a Series 2011-1 Noteholder may be effected by the execution and delivery to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of an Assignment and Acceptance. The actual unpaid principal balance of the Notes will be increased and decreased from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof, the Supplement and the Indenture.

(b) The Issuer may request (each such request to be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, a “Funding Notice”), by delivery of a Funding Notice to the Administrative Agent that the Purchasers make a Series 2011-1 Advance, each such Funding Notice to be irrevocable when given and shall be on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Section 205(b) of the Supplement.

(c) The Issuer may, within 60 days, but no later than 45 days (or such shorter period as may be approved by the parties hereto), prior to the then current Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date, by written notice to each Deal Agent, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee and the Series Enhancer, if any, for Series 2011-1, request the Purchasers to extend the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date for an additional period of up to 364 days from the then current Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date. Each of the Purchasers shall make a determination, in its sole discretion and after a full credit review, within 30 days of its receipt of the Issuer’s request, as to whether or not it will agree to extend the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date; provided, however, that the failure of any Purchaser to make a timely response to the Issuer’s request for extension of the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date shall be deemed to constitute a refusal by such Purchaser to extend the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date. Any such renewal shall become effective only upon written confirmation to the Issuer by each Deal Agent on behalf of the consenting Purchaser of its agreement to so renew, upon receipt by each Deal Agent of any fees required to be paid in connection with such renewal, and receipt by the Issuer and such Deal Agent of the written consent of the Series Enhancer for Series 2011-1, if any, to such extension of the Scheduled Commitment Expiration Date.

Section 2.2 Acceptance and Custody of Notes.

Each notice of reduction or termination pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may on any Business Day reduce to zero and terminate the Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment in connection with a refinancing of the Notes upon (a) at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Indenture Trustee, specifying the proposed Payment Date of such termination, and (b) payment in full of (i) the principal of, and interest on, the Notes and (ii) Breakage Costs, if any, and all other Outstanding Obligations of the Issuer under the Supplement and this Agreement.

(b) The then unused Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association shall be reduced on each Mandatory Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment Reduction Date occurring after the Closing Date by the Mandatory Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment Reduction Amount for such Mandatory Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment Reduction Date; provided, that in no event shall the Series 2011-1 Note Existing Commitment of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association be less than zero.

Section 2.4 Payments, Computations, Etc.

(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, in the Indenture or the Supplement, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Issuer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due in lawful money of the

Such interest shall be retained by the Deal Agents except, in each case, to the extent that such failure to make a timely payment or deposit has continued beyond the date for distribution by the Deal Agents of such overdue amount to the related Series 2011-1 Noteholders, in which case such interest accruing after such date shall be for the account of, and distributed by the Deal Agents to, such related Series 2011-1 Noteholders. All computations of interest and other fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of interest calculated at the Base Rate, 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of any interest or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be.

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1 Indemnities by the Issuer.

Without limiting any other rights which the Deal Agents, the Purchasers or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees and/or agents thereof or their respective successors and assigns may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Issuer hereby agrees to indemnify each of the Deal Agents, the Purchasers and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents thereof (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket costs of defense and legal fees and expenses) which may be incurred or suffered by such Indemnified Party, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) as a result of claims, actions, suits or judgments asserted or imposed against an Indemnified Party and arising out of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby or the ownership or security interest in any Transferred Assets as contemplated herein including, without limitation, as a result of (i) an action or inaction by the Issuer that is contrary to the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, (ii) a breach by the Issuer of any of its covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party, (iii) any information provided by the Issuer in writing being untrue in any material respect as of the date provided, and (iv) any representation or warranty of the Issuer proven to have been false or misleading in any material respect when made or deemed made in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document.

Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the assertion of a claim or the commencement of a proceeding by a third party with respect to any matter referred to in this Section 6.1 which could be the subject of an indemnification claim against the Issuer hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer and thereafter shall keep the Issuer reasonably informed with respect thereto; provided, however, that failure of an Indemnified Party to give the Issuer written notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Issuer of its obligations hereunder unless the Issuer is materially and adversely prejudiced thereby and, in any such instance, the indemnification obligation of the Issuer to such Indemnified Party shall only be reduced by the amount of incremental costs or losses to the Issuer related to the failure to deliver such notice in a timely manner. If any such proceeding (including any litigation, arbitration or similar proceeding) shall be brought against any Indemnified Party, the Issuer or the Manager shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof at the Issuer’s or the Manager’s expense with counsel chosen by the Issuer or the Manager and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party may at its own expense retain separate counsel to participate in such defense. The Issuer and the Manager shall not be liable under this Article VI for any amount paid in settlement of such claims or proceedings without the consent of the Issuer or the Manager unless such consent is unreasonably withheld. All Indemnified Amounts shall be paid to the appropriate Indemnified Party within 30 days after such Indemnified Party’s written demand for such amount.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Issuer’s obligations to make payments under this Section 6.1 shall be limited solely to funds available from time to time for such purpose pursuant to Section 302 or Section 806 of the Indenture and to the extent they are not so paid, such obligations shall not constitute a “claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against the Issuer.

ARTICLE VII

THE DEAL AGENT

Section 7.1 Authorization and Securities Action.

Each Purchaser hereby designates and appoints its related Deal Agent as a Deal Agent hereunder, and authorizes its related Deal Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Deal Agents by the terms of this Agreement together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Each Purchaser represents and warrants to the Deal Agents that it has made and will make, independently and without reliance upon the Deal Agents or any other Purchaser and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Issuer and the Manager and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement.

Section 7.6 Deal Agent in its Individual Capacity.

Any of the Deal Agents and their Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer as though the Deal Agents were not the Deal Agents hereunder.

After any retiring Deal Agent’s resignation hereunder as Deal Agent, the provisions of Article VI and Article VII hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Deal Agent under this Agreement.

(b) such Person shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, debt arrangement, dissolution or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or the like, for such Person or any substantial part of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail to, or admit in writing its inability to, pay its debts generally as they become due.

Section 8.10 Recourse Against Certain Parties.

Section 8.12 Confidentiality.

In addition, the Purchasers and the Deal Agents may disclose any such nonpublic information pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law).

Section 8.13 Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Integration.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Execution and delivery of this Agreement by facsimile signature shall constitute execution and delivery of this Agreement for all purposes hereof with the same force and effect as execution and delivery of a manually signed copy hereof.

This Agreement contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.
