ARTICLE II

ADVANCES

Section 2.1 Advances.

(a) On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Borrower may, by delivery of a Funding Request to the Documentation Agent from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Period, at the Borrower’s option, request that the Lenders make advances (each, an “Advance”) to it in an amount which, at any time, shall not exceed the Availability in effect on the related Funding Date and shall be in an amount equal to $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Documentation Agent shall promptly provide a copy of such Funding Request to the Facility Agent and each Managing Agent, and

- 2 -

each Managing Agent, upon receipt thereof, shall provide a copy thereof to each Lender in its Lender Group.

(b) A Funding Request shall be delivered to the Documentation Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 2.1 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, no Committed Lender shall be obligated to make a share of any Advance in an amount that would result in the aggregate Advances then funded by such Committed Lender exceeding its Commitment then in effect, and no Conduit Lender which is not a Committed Lender shall be obligated to make a share of any Advance in an amount that would result in the aggregate Advances then funded by such Conduit Lender exceeding its Maximum Advance Amount then in effect.

(c) Each Funding Request shall contain the information specified in the form of Funding Request contained in Exhibit A-1 hereto. A Funding Request for Advances shall be irrevocable when delivered, except that to the extent a Funding Request relates to Advances which are designated in the related Funding Request to be applied to fund one or more Pre-Positioned Loans, such Funding Request may be amended or revoked by the Borrower by notice to the Documentation Agent not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date. The Documentation Agent shall promptly provide a copy of any such notice to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Custodian and each Managing Agent, and each Managing Agent, upon receipt thereof, shall promptly provide a copy thereof to each Lender in its Lender Group. No more than five Funding Dates may be designated in any calendar month, and not more than two Funding Dates in any calendar week may be designated for Advances to fund Pre-Positioned Loans.

(d) On the Funding Date with respect to an Advance following (and subject to) prompt notice from the Documentation Agent to the Facility Agent, each Managing Agent and each Lender concerning the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.2 and Article III, (i) each Conduit Lender which is not a Committed Lender may make a portion of such Advance to the Borrower in an amount equal to its Funding Percentage of such Advance, and (ii) each Committed Lender, severally, agrees to make a portion of such Advance to the Borrower in an amount equal to its Funding Percentage of such Advance. Such Advance shall be made by the applicable Lenders by wire transfer of same day funds to the account specified in the relevant Funding Request in accordance with Section 2.1(c) no later than 3:00p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date.

(e) Each Conduit Lender which is not a Committed Lender shall notify the Managing Agent for its Lender Group by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date whether it has elected to make its full pro rata share of an Advance pursuant to Section 2.1(d). In the event that a Conduit Lender shall fail to timely provide such notice, such Conduit Lender shall be deemed to have elected not to make any portion of such Advance. Such Managing Agent shall notify each Committed Lender in its Lender Group on or prior to 1:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date if such Conduit Lender has elected not to make its share of an Advance equal to its Funding Percentage of the requested Borrowing, which notice shall specify (i) the identity of such Conduit Lender, (ii) the portion of the Advance

- 3 -

which such Conduit Lender has elected not to make, and (iii) the respective Liquidity Percentages of such Committed Lenders on such Funding Date (as determined by such Managing Agent in good faith; for purposes of such determination, such Managing Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the most recent information provided by such Conduit Lender or its agent or by the agent for its Support Parties). Subject to receiving such notice and to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.2 and Article III, each of the Committed Lenders in such Lender Group shall make an Advance in an amount equal to its Liquidity Percentage multiplied by the amount of each Advance which any Conduit Lender in such Lender Group has elected not to make at or before 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the applicable Funding Date and otherwise in accordance with Section 2.1(d).

(f) In the event that notwithstanding the fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.2 and Article III with respect to an Advance, a Conduit Lender which is not a Committed Lender elects to make a share of an Advance on a Funding Date by providing the notice required pursuant to Section 2.1(e) but fails to make the proceeds of such Advance available to the Borrower by 2:00 p.m. on such Funding Date pursuant to Section 2.1(d), such Conduit Lender shall be deemed to have rescinded its election to make such share of such Advance, and neither the Borrower nor any other party shall have any claim against such Conduit Lender by reason of its failure to timely make such Advance. In any such case, the Managing Agent for such Conduit Lender’s Lender Group shall give notice of such failure to each Committed Lender in such Lender Group, to the Documentation Agent, the Facility Agent and the Borrower not later than 2:15 p.m. (New York City time), on the Funding Date, which notice shall specify (i) the identity of such Conduit Lender, (ii) the amount of such Advance which it elected, but failed, to make, and (iii) the respective Liquidity Percentages of each of such Committed Lenders on such Funding Date (as determined by such Managing Agent in good faith; for purposes of such determination, such Managing Agent shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the most recent information provided by such Conduit Lender or its agent or by the agent for its Support Parties). Subject to receiving such notice, each Committed Lender in such Lender Group shall make an Advance in an amount equal to its Liquidity Percentage multiplied by each Advance which any Conduit Lender in such Lender Group has been deemed to have rescinded its election to fund at or before 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), on such Funding Date and otherwise in accordance with Section 2.1(d).

(g) The obligation of each Committed Lender to remit its share (if any) of Advances hereunder shall be several from that of each other Lender, and the failure of any Lender to so make any such amount available to the Borrower shall not relieve any other Lender which is a Committed Lender of its obligation hereunder.

Section 2.2 Procedures for Advances; Delivery of Loan Documents.

(a) It shall be a condition precedent to any Advance (other than an Advance designed to fund Pre-Positioned Loans) that each of the delivery requirements set forth in Section 2(a) of the Custody Agreement shall have been satisfied with respect to any Eligible Loan (other than Pre-Positioned Loans) first included in the Collateral since the date of the prior Advance. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Funding Date, the Collateral Custodian shall have delivered to the Facility Agent, the Managing Agents and the

- 4 -

Documentation Agent with respect to each Loan a Custodian Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the Custody Agreement, which shall not be subject to exceptions stated in a related Custodian Exceptions Report.

(b) It shall be a condition precedent to any Advance designed to fund Pre-Positioned Loans that each of the delivery requirements set forth in Section 2(b) of the Custody Agreement that are required to have been satisfied on or prior to the related Funding Date shall have been satisfied with respect to each such Pre-Positioned Loan. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Funding Date, the Collateral Custodian shall have delivered to the Facility Agent, the Managing Agents and the Documentation Agent with respect to each such Pre-Positioned Loan a Custodian Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Custody Agreement, which shall not be subject to exceptions stated in the Custodian Exceptions Report (other than with respect to the delivery of items in the related Loan File which are not required to be delivered on or prior to the Funding Date in accordance with Section 2(b)(v) or 2(b)(vii) of the Custody Agreement).

(c) The parties acknowledge and agree that deliveries of the foregoing documents, instruments and certificates made by the Originator to the Facility Agent, the Documentation Agent or the Collateral Custodian pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or the Custody Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.3 Prepayments.

(a) At any time during the Revolving Period other than a Payment Date, the Borrower may prepay, in accordance with this Section 2.3, all or any portion of the Outstanding Borrowings. The Servicer shall have discretion to determine whether any such repayment is paid from available Interest Collections and/or Principal Collections. The amount of any prepayment shall include any accrued and unpaid Interest and Facility Fees on the amount prepaid and any Breakage Costs related thereto. Any partial prepayment by the Borrower of Advances pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be in a minimum amount of $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Any amount prepaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed during the Revolving Period.

(b) Any prepayment shall be in an amount not to exceed the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate amount in and available from the Collection Account (including the proceeds of any permitted Servicer Advances theretofore made) over (ii) 150% of the aggregate amount necessary on the following Payment Date, in the good faith estimation of the Servicer, to make the required payments under the Priority of Payments (after giving effect to any prepayments under this Section 2.3).

(c) In conjunction with any prepayment, the Borrower shall deliver to the Documentation Agent a Borrower Notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such repayment (or, in each case, such later time as each Lender, in its sole discretion, may agree), specifying the date and amount of the prepayment, a written statement of the amounts estimated by the Servicer to be necessary to make the required

- 5 -

payments under the Priority of Payments under Section 2.3(b)and certifying that, following such prepayment, the Borrower will be in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of any such Borrower Notice, the Documentation Agent shall promptly forward a copy thereof to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Managing Agent and Lender. The amount set forth in any such Borrower Notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. A Borrower Notice relating to any such prepayment shall be irrevocable when delivered.

Section 2.4 Principal Repayments.

The Outstanding Borrowings shall be due and payable on the Legal Final Maturity Date. In addition, Outstanding Borrowings shall be repaid on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and any amount so repaid may, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, be reborrowed hereunder during the Revolving Period.

Section 2.5 The Notes.

(a) The Advances made by any Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note of the Borrower payable to each Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (collectively, the “Notes”). Notes issued to a Lender shall be dated the Second Restatement Effective Date or such later date on which such Person becomes a Lender hereunder and shall be in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment or Maximum Advance Amount (as applicable) and shall otherwise be duly completed. Thereafter, the Advances evidenced by a Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment permitted pursuant to Article XI) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

(b) Each Lender is hereby authorized to enter on a schedule attached to the Note as to which it is the payee the following notations (which may be computer generated) with respect to each Advance made by such Lender: (i) the date and principal amount thereof and (ii) each payment and repayment of principal thereof, and any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded. The failure of a Lender to make any such notation on the schedule attached to the applicable Note shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with their respective terms as set forth herein.

Section 2.6 Interest Payments.

(a) Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance for the period commencing on and including the Funding Date of such Advance until but excluding the date that such Advance shall be paid in full at the applicable Interest Rate for each applicable Accrual Period. Interest on the Outstanding Borrowings shall be payable on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments or as otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.3.

(b) If any Lender shall notify the Documentation Agent and the Calculation Agent that a Eurodollar Disruption Event as described in clause (i) of the definition of “Eurodollar Disruption Event” has occurred, the (i) Documentation Agent shall promptly notify

- 6 -

the Servicer and Borrower and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall in turn so notify the Borrower, whereupon all Advances of such Lender in respect of which Interest accrues at the LIBO Rate shall immediately be converted into Advances in respect of which Interest accrues based on the Alternate Base Rate (but shall on the next Payment Date revert to accruing Interest based on the LIBO Rate upon such Lender’s prompt notice to the Documentation Agent and the Calculation Agent that such Eurodollar Disruption Event shall no longer be continuing, which notice the Calculation Agent shall forward to the Borrower). The Facility Agent shall notify the Calculation Agent and the Borrower of the occurrence of any other date on which Interest on Advances commences to accrue based on the Alternate Base Rate rather than the LIBO Rate as herein provided.

(c) Anything in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the rate of interest payable by any Person under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under Applicable Law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then, so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, the rate of interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, such Person shall continue to pay interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received from such Person is equal to the total interest that would have been received had Applicable Law not limited the interest rate payable under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. In no event shall the total interest received by a Lender under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceed the amount that such Lender could lawfully have received, had the interest due under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents been calculated since the Closing Date at the Maximum Lawful Rate.

Section 2.7 Fees.

(a) On each Payment Date and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, the Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid from the Collection Account to the Paying Agent, for distribution to the Lenders, the Facility Fee and such other fees and amounts payable as specified in the Lenders Fee Letter.

(b) On each Payment Date and in accordance with the Priority of Payments, the Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid from the Collection Account the Servicing Fee, the Backup Servicing Fee, the Custodian Fee and the respective Agents Fees as specified in the Agents/Backup Servicer Fee Letter.

Section 2.8 Priority of Payments.

On each Payment Date, the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower shall direct the Paying Agent to pay to the following Persons, from the Collection Account, to the extent of (i) available funds received with respect to the related Collection Period, (including any amounts transferred on such Payment Date from the Interest Reserve Account pursuant to Section 7.4(g)(iii)), and (ii) Servicer Advances, if any, with respect to such Collection Period or

Section 2.11 Breakage Costs.

The Borrower shall pay, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, to the Paying Agent, for payment to any applicable Lender upon the request of any Lender or Managing Agent on each date on which a prepayment is made in accordance with the Priority of Payments, such amount or amounts as shall, without duplication, compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense (the “Breakage Costs”) incurred by such Lender (as reasonably documented by such Lender and delivered to the Borrower) as a result of (i) any prepayment of an Advance, other than an Advance which bears interest based on the Alternate Base Rate, on a date other than a Payment Date, (ii) any failure to repay or prepay an Advance on a Payment Date that (x) is required to be paid or (y) the Borrower has elected to prepay on such Payment Date, or (iii) any failure on the part of the Borrower to accept or take an Advance as to which a Funding Request shall have been delivered to be made on the Funding Date specified in such Funding Request for any reason, including the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions to the making of such Advance set forth in Section 2.1 or 2.2 or Article III, but excluding (A) a default by any Lender in making its share of such Advance when required under the terms and conditions of this Agreement and (B) a failure of an Advance (or the applicable portion thereof) designated to fund one or more Pre-Positioned Loans to be made on the Funding Date specified in the applicable Funding Request to the extent such Funding Request shall have been amended or revoked in accordance with Section 2.1(c) by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date. Such Breakage Costs to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Advance had such event not occurred, at the Interest Rate that would have been applicable to such Advance, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Accrual Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, for the period that would have been the initial Accrual Period for such Advance), over (ii) the amount of Interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market (whether or not any Advances by such Lender are in fact funded in the eurodollar market). The determination by any Lender of the amount of any such Breakage Costs shall be set forth in a written notice to the Borrower, the Servicer and the Documentation Agent delivered by the applicable Lender prior to the date of such prepayment in the case where notice of such prepayment is delivered to such Lender in accordance with Section 2.3 or within two (2) Business Days following such prepayment in the case where no such notice is delivered (in which case, Breakage Costs shall include interest thereon from the date of such prepayment), or in the case of a failure of an Advance to be made, within two (2) Business Days following the stated Funding Date for such Advance (in which case, Breakage Costs shall include interest thereon from such stated Funding Date), and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.12 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality.

(a) If after the date hereof, any Affected Party shall be charged any fee, expense or increased cost on account of the adoption of any Applicable Law (including any Applicable Law regarding capital adequacy), any accounting principles or any change in any of the foregoing, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, any central bank or any comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority or agency (a “Regulatory Change”): (i) that subjects any Affected Party to any charge or withholding on or with respect to any Transaction Document or an Affected Party’s obligations under a Transaction Document, or on or with respect to the Advances, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Affected Party of any amounts payable under any Transaction Document (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of an Affected Party or taxes excluded by Section 2.13) or (ii) that imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of an Affected Party, or credit extended by an Affected Party pursuant to a Transaction Document or (iii) that imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to an Affected Party of performing its obligations under a Transaction Document, or to reduce the rate of return on an Affected Party’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under a Transaction Document, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under a Transaction Document or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, upon demand by the applicable Lender to the Borrower, with a copy to the Servicer, the Documentation Agent and the applicable Managing Agent, the Borrower shall pay, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, to the Paying Agent, for payment to any applicable Lenders for the benefit of the relevant Affected Party, such amounts charged to such Affected Party or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Affected Party for such increased cost or such reduction.

Section 2.13 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower in respect of any Advance and all payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, unless such withholding or deduction is required by Applicable Law. In such event, the Borrower shall pay, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, to the appropriate taxing authority any such Taxes required to be deducted or withheld and the amount payable to each Lender or Agent (as the case may be) will be increased (such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement, after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including any Taxes on such increase), is equal to the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been deducted or withheld; provided that the foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts will not apply to, and the term “Additional Amount” shall not include, net income or franchise taxes imposed on a Lender or Agent, respectively, with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement, by a taxing jurisdiction in which such Lender or Agent is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes as of the Closing Date (as the case may be). If a Lender or Agent pays any Taxes in respect of which the Borrower is obligated to pay Additional Amounts under this Section 2.13(a), the Borrower shall promptly reimburse such Lender or Agent in full.

(b) The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and Agent, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, for the full amount of Taxes in respect of which the Borrower is required to pay Additional Amounts (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on such Additional Amounts) paid by such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that such Lender or Agent, as appropriate, making a demand for indemnity payment, shall provide the Borrower, at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof, with a certificate from the relevant taxing authority or from a Responsible Officer of such Lender or Agent stating or otherwise evidencing that such Lender or Agent has made payment of such Taxes and will promptly provide a copy of or extract from documentation, if available, furnished by such taxing authority evidencing assertion or payment of such Taxes. This indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefore by notice to the Borrower and the Servicer, with a copy to the Documentation Agent.

(c) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the applicable Agent or Lender at its address set forth under its name on the signature pages hereof, with a copy to the Documentation Agent, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

(d) If a Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, such Lender shall, within 15 days after the date hereof, or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, and at any other time or times required under Applicable Laws or as reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Servicer, the Collateral Custodian, any Managing Agent, the Paying Agent or the Facility Agent, deliver to the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian, the applicable Managing Agent and the Paying Agent (i) two

- 15 -

(or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Laws) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY or Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements that may be required from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or Applicable Laws), as appropriate, to permit the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian, such Managing Agent and the Paying Agent, as applicable, to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes and (ii) upon the obsolescence of or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in, any form or certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.13(d), two copies (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Laws) of such additional, amended or successor forms, certificates or statements as may be required under Applicable Laws to permit the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian, such Managing Agent and the Paying Agent, as applicable, to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender, without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes.

(e) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian, a Managing Agent or the Paying Agent, as applicable, with the appropriate form, certificate or statement described in clause (d) of this section (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date of this Agreement), such Lender, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to indemnification under clauses (a) or (b) of this section with respect to any Taxes.

(f) If, in connection with a Support Agreement, a Conduit Lender is required to compensate a Support Provider in respect of Taxes under circumstances similar to those described in this section, then on the Payment Date after demand made at least ten days prior to such Payment Date by the Lenders, the Borrower shall pay, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, to the Paying Agent, for payment to the applicable Conduit Lender, such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Conduit Lender for any amounts paid by it.

- 16 -

subject such Lender, Affected Party, Funding Source or Support Provider to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender, Affected Party, Funding Source or Support Provider. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or Affected Party in connection any such designation or assignment.

(b) If, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, (i) (A) a Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, (B) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to a Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, or (C) an Affected Party is required to compensate a Funding Source or Support Provider in respect of any such occurrence, and the amount of such compensation or additional amounts, as applicable, are materially in excess (on a basis proportional to outstanding Advances or Commitments, as applicable) of the amounts payable to other Lenders or Affected Parties, as applicable, or (ii) any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto or an Affected Party, as the case may be, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender or Affected Party, as the case may be, and the Facility Agent, require (x) such Lender or the Lender to which such Affected Party relates, as applicable, if consented to by all others Lenders and the Managing Agent in such Lender’s Lender Group or (y) if not so consented, all Lenders and the Managing Agent in such Lender Group, to, assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Article XI), all and not less than all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to an assignee or assignees that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such other Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: (x) each assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to all of its Advances outstanding, accrued Interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it and its Affected Parties hereunder and the other Transaction Documents through (but excluding) the date of such assignment from the assignee (to the extent of such Advances outstanding, accrued Interest thereon and accrued fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (y) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation or additional amounts under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation, additional amounts or payments thereafter and (z) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law. A Lender or other Affected Party shall not be required to make, or cause to be made, any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or Affected Party or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 2.15 Changes in Facility Amount.

(a) On any date prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may request an increase in the Facility Amount, to an amount not exceeding the Maximum Facility Amount, through an increase in like amount of the aggregate Commitments (a “Facility Increase”). Such request shall be made by notice to the Documentation Agent, shall identify the Lenders agreeing to increase their Commitments or additional Persons agreeing to become additional Lenders and shall specify, for each such Lender or other Person, the identity thereof and the amount of its proposed Commitment. The Documentation Agent shall promptly provide a copy of any such

- 17 -

notice to the Facility Agent and each Managing Agent, and each Managing Agent, upon receipt thereof, shall promptly provide a copy thereof to each Lender in its Lender Group. Any Facility Increase shall be subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subsection (c) below, and

(i) to the extent such Facility Increase consists of Lenders increasing their Commitments, such Facility Increase shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of an amendment to this Agreement by the Borrower, the Servicer, the Facility Agent, each such increasing Lender, the Managing Agent for its Lender Group and without the requirement of consent from any other Lender or Agent, and

(ii) to the extent such Facility Increase consists of additional Persons becoming Lenders hereunder, such Facility Increase shall become effective upon the execution and delivery by the Borrower, the Servicer, the Facility Agent, each such Person and the Managing Agent for its Lender Group (and without the requirement of consent from any other Lender or Agent) of an agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C-2 hereto (a “Joinder Agreement”).

(b) Upon the effectiveness of a Joinder Agreement, each additional Person or Persons agreeing to become a Lender thereby shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by Borrower, the Lenders or the Agents. Promptly following the effectiveness of any amendment to this agreement described in clause (a)(i) above or of any Joinder Agreement, the Facility Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register and give prompt notice thereof to each Lender.

(i) unless otherwise consented to by the Facility Agent, the minimum increase in the Facility Amount shall be $5,000,000;

(ii) after giving effect to such increase, the Facility Amount shall not exceed the Maximum Facility Amount;

(iii) all Lenders shall have the pro rata benefit of any increased Interest margins, Facility Fees payable (directly or indirectly) for the benefit of any Lenders which are increasing or assuming new Commitments in connection with such Facility Increase;

(iv) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1 and 7.8 shall be true and correct on and as of the date of such Facility Increase, before and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date;

(v) no event that constitutes a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or would result from such Facility Increase;

- 18 -

(vi) the Borrowing Base Test shall be satisfied;

(vii) the Overcollateralization Ratio Test shall be satisfied;

(viii) the Required Equity Test shall be satisfied;

(ix) each Collateral Quality Test shall be satisfied;

(x) there shall have been no Material Adverse Change with respect to the Borrower or the Servicer since the date of the most recent Advance;

(xi) if the Facility Amount shall exceed $210,000,000 after giving effect to such Facility Increase, the Rating Agency shall have confirmed in writing to the Borrower and the Facility Agent that (i) such Facility Increase will not result in the reduction of its rating of the existing portion of the Rated Facility to below the Required Facility Rating or in a withdrawal of its rating of the existing portion of the Rated Facility, and (ii) its rating of the increased portion of the Rated Facility is at least equal to the Required Facility Rating;

(xii) if any new Advances or repayments of Advances shall occur pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection with any Facility Increase, each Lender shall have received the notice required pursuant to Section 2.15(a) not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such Facility Increase; and

(xiii) the Servicer and the Borrower shall have taken such other action, including delivery of approvals, consents, opinions, documents, and instruments to the Facility Agent as it may reasonably request.

(d) The Borrower shall be entitled at its option and without premium or penalty, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event, to reduce the Facility Amount in whole or in part, by delivering a Borrower Notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Documentation Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such reduction; provided that any partial reduction of the Facility Amount shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (I) the Availability or (II) $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Upon receipt of any such Borrower Notice, the Documentation Agent shall promptly forward a copy thereof to the Facility Agent, each Managing Agent and Lender. Unless otherwise agreed by the Facility Agent and the Lenders, the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced ratably in proportion to such reduction in the Facility Amount. Any request for a reduction or termination pursuant to this Section 2.15(d) shall be irrevocable. The Servicer shall deliver notice of each reduction of the Facility Amount to the Rating Agency.

Section 2.16 Reallocations.

Upon the effectiveness of any non-pro rata Facility Increase or any reallocation of Commitments pursuant to Section 2.15, each Lender shall sell to the other Lenders (as determined by the Facility Agent), and each Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders (as so determined by the Facility Agent), and each Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders (as so

- 19 -

determined by the Facility Agent) an interest in the outstanding Advances, for a purchase price equal to the portion of the principal balance sold and purchased, so that, after giving effect to such sale and purchase, as nearly as practical, the aggregate Advances funded by each Lender Group are proportional to the aggregate Commitments of the Committed Lenders in the Lender Groups.

Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Defaulting Lender’s right to vote in respect of any amendment, consent or waiver of the terms of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or to direct any action or inaction of the Facility Agent or the Documentation Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of the Required Lenders shall be suspended at all times that such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, that, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.17, the foregoing suspension shall not empower Lenders which are not Defaulting Lenders to increase a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, decrease the rate of interest or fees applicable to, or extend the maturity date of such Defaulting Lender’s Advances or other Obligations owing to such Lender, in each case, without such Lender’s consent. No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.17, performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder and the other Transaction Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of the operation of this Section 2.17.

(b) To the extent that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender with respect to an Advance on any Borrowing Date, the Borrower may deliver a notice to all Lenders and Agents, specifying such Borrowing Date, the identity of the Defaulted Lender and the share of such Advance which the Defaulting Lender failed to fund, which notice shall be deemed to be an additional Borrowing Request in respect of such unfunded Advance, and each Committed Lender shall, to the extent of its remaining unfunded Commitment and subject to the continued fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 2.2 and Article III with respect to such Advance, fund its Funding Percentage (recomputed by excluding the Commitment of Defaulting Lenders from the Facility Amount) of such unfunded Advance by not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day following the date of such notice. Nothing in this Section 2.17 shall be interpreted to limit the Borrower’s right to otherwise issue any Borrowing Request.

(c) Until the Defaulting Lender Excess of a Defaulting Lender has been reduced to zero, any payment of the principal of any Outstanding Borrowings to a Defaulting Lender shall, unless the Required Lenders agree otherwise, be applied first, (i) to the pro rata share, and to the extent, of Outstanding Borrowings of the Lenders that funded any defaulted Advances pursuant to Section 2.17(b) and then (ii) to the pro rata share of all remaining Outstanding Borrowings of the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders. Subject to the preceding sentence, any amount paid by or on behalf of the Borrower for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be applied to the making of payments

- 20 -

from time to time in the following order of priority until such Defaulting Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender as provided below: first, to the funding of any portion of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Facility Agent; second, held in a segregated subaccount of the Collection Account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of Advances under this Agreement; and third, after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations, to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(d) During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall not accrue or be required to pay, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive, the portion of Facility Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender in respect of its Unused Commitment at the Unused Rate (as defined in the Lenders Fee Letter) under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents at any time, or with respect to any period, that such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(e) During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Facility Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders and Managing Agents, require such Defaulting Lender, at the cost and expense of the Borrower, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Article XI), (i) all and not less than all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to an assignee or assignees that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such other Lender accepts such assignment) in whole or (ii) all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents with respect to all prospective Commitments, including any unfunded Commitment as of the date of such assignment. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such complete or partial replacement or to assist in finding an assignee. In connection with any such complete or partial assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance. No such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, (A) to the extent that the assignee is assuming all of the interests, rights and obligations of the Defaulting Lender, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Facility Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) the full pro rata share of all Advances held by such Defaulted Lender or members of such Defaulting Lender Group, as applicable, (B) to the extent that the assignee is assuming all of the interests, rights and obligations of the Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender or members of such Defaulting Lender Group, as applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to all of its Advances outstanding, accrued Interest thereon, accrued fees (subject to Section 2.17(d)) and all other amounts, including any Breakage Costs, payable to it and its Affected Parties hereunder

- 21 -

and the other Transaction Documents through (but excluding) the date of such assignment from the assignee or the Borrower, and (C) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(f) In addition to any rights under Section 2.14(b), during any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may (with the consent of the Facility Agent), by giving notice to such Defaulting Lender, its Managing Agent, the Facility Agent and the Documentation Agent, terminate in full the Commitments of all Committed Lenders in such Defaulting Lender Group and repay all Advances owed to the Lenders in such Defaulting Lender Group, together with all accrued Interest thereon, accrued fees (subject to Section 2.17(d)) and all other amounts payable to members of such Defaulting Lender Group and their Affected Parties hereunder and the other Transaction Documents through (but excluding) the date of such termination (a “Defaulting Lender Termination”), so long as on the effective date of such Defaulting Lender Termination and after giving effect thereto and to any repayment of all Advances owed to members of such Defaulting Lender Group in connection therewith, no Default or Event of Default exists (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent to such Defaulting Lender Termination). A Defaulting Lender Termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower or any Agent or Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. Each such notice shall specify the effective date of such Defaulting Lender Termination (the “Defaulting Lender Termination Date”), which shall be not less than 5 Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Facility Agent, the Documentation Agent and each member of such Defaulting Lender Group) after the date on which such notice is delivered to such Defaulting Lender, its Managing Agent, the Facility Agent and the Documentation Agent. On each such Defaulting Lender Termination Date, subject to the concurrent repayment of all outstanding Advances to the Lenders in such Defaulting Lender Group, together with all accrued Interest thereon, accrued fees (subject to Section 2.17(d)) and all other amounts payable to members of such Defaulting Lender Group and their Affected Parties hereunder and the other Transaction Documents through (but excluding) the date of such termination, (i) the Commitment or Maximum Advance Amount, as applicable, of each Lender in such Defaulting Lender Group shall be reduced to zero, (ii) each Lender in such Defaulting Lender Group shall cease to be a “Lender” hereunder (provided that any such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the indemnification provisions contained herein, but only with respect to matters arising prior to the date on which such Lender became a Defaulting Lender), (iii) the Managing Agent of the Defaulting Lender Group shall cease to be a party hereto (provided that any such Managing Agent shall continue to be entitled to the indemnification provisions contained herein, but only with respect to matters arising prior to the applicable Defaulting Lender Termination Date) and (iv) the Commitments or Maximum Advance Amounts, as applicable, of all other Lenders shall remain unchanged. To the fullest extent otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement, the Borrower shall be entitled to submit a Borrowing Request to Lenders that are not part of a Defaulting Lender Group in order to fund payments to a Defaulting Lender Group as contemplated herein.

- 22 -

(g) If the Borrower, Servicer, and the Facility Agent agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Facility Agent will so notify the Lenders, the Managing Agents and the Documentation Agent, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender, if a Lender, will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders and make such other adjustments as the Documentation Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the interest of the Lenders in the Outstanding Borrowings to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Funding Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or forfeited pursuant to Section 2.17(d) while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no cure by a Lender under this subsection of its status as a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(h) The rights and remedies of the Borrower, any Agent or the other Lenders against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.17 are in addition to any other rights and remedies the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise.

(i) Any Lender that fails to timely fund an Advance shall be obligated to promptly (but in any event not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day after the relevant Funding Date) notify the Documentation Agent, the Borrower and the Facility Agent if any such failure is the result of an administrative error or omission by such Lender or force majeure, computer malfunction, interruption of communication facilities, labor difficulties or other causes, in each case to the extent beyond the Lender’s reasonable control. If (i) the Documentation Agent had been notified by the Borrower or the affected Lender that a Lender has failed to timely fund an Advance, (ii) if a Responsible Officer of the Documentation Agent has actual knowledge or has written notice that such Lender is the subject of an Insolvency Proceeding or has publicly announced that it does not intend to comply with its funding obligations under this Agreement or (iii) the Documentation Agent had been notified by the Facility Agent or the affected Lender that a Lender has failed timely to deliver the written confirmation contemplated by clause (a)(iii) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”, the Documentation Agent shall promptly provide notice to the Borrower, the Facility Agent and the Managing Agents of such occurrence.

(ii) The making of the Advances by the Lenders to the Borrower and the business and other activities of the Borrower, including the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof by the Borrower and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a party do not now and will not at any time result in any violations, with respect to the Borrower, of the provisions of the 1940 Act or any rules, regulations or orders issued by the SEC thereunder.

(y) Government Regulations. The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security,” as such terms are defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board as now and from time to time hereafter in effect (such securities being referred to herein as “Margin Stock”). The Borrower owns no Margin Stock, and no portion of the proceeds of any Advance hereunder will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any portion of such proceeds to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. The Borrower will not take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Related Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

Section 4.2 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Lenders and Paying Agent.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants as of the date hereof and as of the date of any Advance funded by such Lender that: (i) it is a Qualified Lender; (ii) any transfer of any Note or any beneficial interest therein by such Lender in violation of the transfer restrictions set forth on such Note will be of no force and effect, will be void ab initio and will not operate to transfer any rights to the transferee; and (iii) the Borrower maintains the right to resell any

In the event that the Borrower shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to engage an Independent Director from one or more of the foregoing firms and shall not have succeeded in such efforts, then any replacement Independent Director shall be a person

- 34 -

accepted by each Syndication Agent (such acceptance to be provided in writing and not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). None of the Borrower, the Originator, any of the Borrower’s members or directors or any of their respective Affiliates shall remove any Independent Director or replace any Independent Director except with an Independent Director satisfying the criteria set forth in this Section 5.1(m), in each case without the prior written consent of each Syndication Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Borrower shall compensate each Independent Director in accordance with the Priority of Payments and the terms of any agreement from time to time with such Independent Director and/or the company employing such Independent Director, as the case may be. No Independent Director shall at any time serve as a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower or the Originator or any of their respective Affiliates. As long as any Advance is outstanding or may be requested, the limited company agreement of the Borrower will require that the directors of the Borrower shall not approve, or take any other action to cause the filing of, a voluntary bankruptcy petition with respect to the Borrower unless each Independent Director shall approve the taking of such action in writing prior to the taking of such action.

(s) Extension or Amendment of Loans. The Borrower will not, except as otherwise permitted in Section 7.4(a), extend, amend or otherwise modify, or permit the Servicer on its behalf to extend, amend or otherwise modify, the terms of any Loan.

(i) as soon as possible and in any event within two (2) Business Days after the occurrence of each Termination Event and each Unmatured Termination Event, a written statement, signed by a Responsible Officer, setting forth the details of such event and the action that the Borrower proposes to take with respect thereto;

(ii) promptly upon request, such other information, documents, records or reports respecting the Transferred Loans or the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower or Originator as the Facility Agent may from time to time reasonably request (factoring into such evaluation of reasonableness, among other things, the cost to the Borrower of furnishing such requested documentation) in order to protect the interests of the Facility Agent or the Secured Parties under or as contemplated by this Agreement; and

(iii) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after its receipt thereof, copies of any and all notices, certificates, documents, or reports delivered to it by the Originator under the Purchase Agreement.

- 36 -

the Overcollateralization Test or the Required Equity Test, (iv) if such acquisition would cause any Collateral Quality Test which was satisfied immediately prior to such acquisition or origination to cease to be satisfied, (v) if such acquisition would not maintain or improve the Borrower’s degree of compliance with any Collateral Quality Test which was not satisfied immediately prior to such acquisition, or (vi) if the Documentation Agent shall not have recalculated the Diversity Score and the Xxxxx’x Asset Correlation Factor with respect to such acquisition in accordance with Section 7.21 hereof. The Borrower will not originate any Loan.

(v) Ratings. The Borrower will ensure that, with respect each Transferred Loan as of its Cut-Off Date, either (i) such Transferred Loan has a Xxxxx’x Rating or (ii) the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall have applied for a Xxxxx’x Credit Estimate to be assigned to such Transferred Loan. With respect to each Transferred Loan having a Xxxxx’x Credit Estimate, the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall apply for an updated Xxxxx’x Credit Estimate to be assigned to such Transferred Loan on or prior to each six-month anniversary of the acquisition of any such Loan and in any event not later than 10 Business Days following any material amendment to the Loan Documents or other documents and provide to the Rating Agency with all information available to the Borrower (and not subject to any confidentiality or other similar restrictions on distribution) reasonably requested by the Rating Agency to perform a renewed credit estimate, and shall pay all expenses associated with such application.

Section 5.2 Hedging Agreement.

If at any time the one-month LIBO Rate is greater than 8%, the Borrower shall within 30 days of receipt of a written request from the Required Lenders with respect to Fixed Rate Loans having in the aggregate an Outstanding Loan Balance not less than 80% of the aggregate Outstanding Loan Balances of Fixed Rate Loans, enter into and maintain an interest rate cap transaction between the Borrower and an interest rate swap counterparty that has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) which interest rate cap shall: (i) have a notional amount and amortization schedule as shall be agreed upon between the Required Lenders and the Borrower, (ii) shall provide for payments to the Borrower to the extent that the LIBO Rate shall exceed a rate agreed upon between the Required Lenders and the Borrower and (iii) shall otherwise be in form and substance mutually satisfactory to the Required Lenders and the Borrower. The Borrower shall promptly deliver a copy of any such interest rate cap to the Rating Agency and the Paying Agent. The Borrower shall not enter into any interest rate cap unless the Rating Agency shall have confirmed in writing to the Borrower and the Facility Agent that entering into such transaction will not result in the reduction of its rating of the Rated Facility to below the Required Facility Rating or in a withdrawal of its rating of the Rated Facility. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the failure of the Borrower to have entered into interest rate caps with respect to the portion of Fixed Rate Loans specified above in this Section 5.2 shall constitute an Optional Redemption Event without further notice or grace periods.

ARTICLE VI

SECURITY INTEREST

Section 6.1 Security Interest.

As collateral security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations, the Borrower hereby assigns, pledges and grants to the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, a lien on and security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under (but none of its obligations under) the Collateral, whether now existing or owned or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower, and wherever located. The assignment under this Section 6.1 does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by the Facility Agent or any of the Secured Parties of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Person in connection with any or all of the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Transferred Loans to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral, and (c) none of the Facility Agent or any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Facility Agent or any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

Section 6.2 Remedies.

In respect of the Collateral and the security interest therein granted pursuant to Section 6.1, the Facility Agent (for itself and on behalf of the other Secured Parties) shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other Applicable Law. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Termination Event, the Facility Agent or its designees may (a) deliver a notice of exclusive control to the Custodian and/or the Securities Custodian; and (b) instruct the Collateral Custodian and/or the Securities Custodian to deliver any or all of the Collateral to the Facility Agent or its designees and otherwise give all instructions and entitlement orders to the Collateral Custodian and/or the Securities Custodian regarding the Collateral. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of (x) an Optional Redemption Event as a result of which the Facility Agent shall have declared the Outstanding Borrowings and other amounts owing by the Borrower under this Agreement to have been accelerated and become immediately due and payable in accordance with Section 8.1(b) or (y) an Event of Default, the Facility Agent or its designees may (i) require that the Borrower or the Servicer immediately take action to liquidate the Collateral to pay amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations; (ii) sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner, all without judicial process or proceedings; (iii) take control of the Proceeds of any such Collateral; (iv) exercise any consensual or voting rights in respect of the Collateral; (v) release, make extensions, discharges, exchanges or substitutions for, or surrender all or any part of the Collateral; (vi) enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Custody Agreement with respect to the Collateral; (vii) institute and prosecute legal and

- 38 -

equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, any of the Collateral; (viii) remove from the Borrower’s, the Servicer’s, the Collateral Custodian’s, the Securities Custodian’s and their respective agents’ place of business all books, records and documents relating to the Collateral, other than copies of such books, records and documents remaining with the Borrower, Servicer, Collateral Custodian, Securities Custodian or agent, as the case may be, that are necessary to continue the conduct of the business of such Person); and/or (ix) endorse the name of the Borrower upon any items of payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim in bankruptcy against an account debtor. For purposes of taking the actions described in this Section 6.2, the Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Facility Agent as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment being coupled with an interest is irrevocable while any of the Obligations remain unpaid), with power of substitution, in the name of the Facility Agent or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Facility Agent, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and without notice to the Borrower; provided that the Facility Agent hereby agrees to exercise such power only so long as a Termination Event, Optional Redemption Event or Event of Default, as applicable, shall be continuing. Any cash proceeds from the exercise of remedies by the Facility Agent under this Section 6.2 shall be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

Section 6.3 Release of Liens.

(a) So long as no Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, at the same time as any Loan that is part of the Collateral matures by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account, the Facility Agent as agent for the Secured Parties will release its interest in such Loan and any Supplemental Interests related thereto. In connection with any such release on or after the occurrence of the above, the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will execute and deliver to the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower any termination statements and any other releases and instruments as the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower may reasonably request in order to effect the release of such Loan and Supplemental Interest; provided, that, the Facility Agent as agent for the Secured Parties will make no representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to any such Loan or Supplemental Interest in connection with such sale or transfer and assignment.

(b) Upon receipt by the Facility Agent of the proceeds of a repurchase of an Ineligible Loan (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) by the Originator pursuant to the terms of Section 7.1 of the Purchase Agreement, the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, shall be deemed to have automatically released its interest in such Ineligible Loan and any Supplemental Interests related thereto without any further action on its part. In connection with any such release on or after the occurrence of such repurchase, the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will execute and deliver to the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower any releases and instruments as the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower may reasonably request in order to effect the release of such Ineligible Loan and Supplemental Interest.

(c) Upon receipt by the Facility Agent of the proceeds of a purchase of a Transferred Loan by the Servicer pursuant to the terms of Section 7.7, the Facility Agent, as

agent for the Secured Parties, shall be deemed to have automatically released its interest in such Transferred Loan and any Supplemental Interests related thereto without any further action on its part. In connection with any such release on or after the occurrence of such purchase, the Facility Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, will execute and deliver to the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower any releases and instruments as the Borrower or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower may reasonably request in order to effect the release of such Transferred Loan and Supplemental Interest.

Section 6.4 Assignment of the Purchase Agreement.

The Borrower hereby assigns to the Facility Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, all of the Borrower’s right and title to and interest in the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower confirms that following a Termination Event the Facility Agent shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Purchase Agreement for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but without any obligation on the part of the Facility Agent, the Secured Parties or any of their respective Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under the Purchase Agreement. The Borrower further confirms and agrees that such assignment to the Facility Agent shall terminate upon the Final Date; provided, however, that the rights of the Facility Agent and the Secured Parties pursuant to such assignment with respect to rights and remedies in connection with any indemnities and any breach of any representation, warranty or covenants made by the Originator pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, which rights and remedies survive the termination of the Purchase Agreement, shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of such assignment.

Section 6.5 Delivery of Loan Files.

(a) The Borrower, or the Servicer on its behalf, shall deliver possession of all “instruments” (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) not constituting part of “chattel paper” (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) that evidence any Transferred Loan set forth on a Loan List, including all Underlying Notes (except in the case of Noteless Loans, Global Note Loans or Participations), and all portions of the Loan Files, to the Collateral Custodian on behalf of the Facility Agent prior to the applicable Funding Dates, in each case endorsed in blank or to the Facility Agent, without recourse; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Pre-Positioned Loan, the Borrower shall make all deliveries required under Section 2(b)(ii) of the Custody Agreement and deliver all other portions of the Loan File in each case endorsed in blank without recourse, where applicable, not later than the applicable date or dates specified in Sections 2(b)(v) and 2(b)(viii) of the Custody Agreement. The Borrower hereby authorizes and directs the Servicer to deliver possession of all such instruments and Loan Files to the Collateral Custodian on behalf of the Facility Agent, and agrees that such delivery shall satisfy the condition set forth in the first sentence of this Section 6.5(a). The Servicer shall also identify on the Loan List (including any amendment thereof), whether by attached schedule or marking or other effective identifying designation, all Transferred Loans that are not evidenced by such instruments.

(b) Prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Facility Agent shall not record the Assignments of Mortgage delivered pursuant to Section 6.5(a) and the definition

- 40 -

of Loan Documents. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Facility Agent shall, if so directed by the Majority Lenders, cause to be recorded in the appropriate offices each Assignment of Mortgage delivered to it with respect to all Transferred Loans. Each such recording shall be at the expense of the Servicer; provided that to the extent the Servicer does not pay such expenses, the Facility Agent shall be reimbursed pursuant to the Priority of Payments.

Section 6.6 Custody of Transferred Loans.

The contents of each Loan File relating to a Transferred Loan shall be held in the custody of the Collateral Custodian under the terms of the Custody Agreement and this Agreement on behalf of the Facility Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

The Servicer agrees to pay all reasonable costs and disbursements in connection with the perfection and the maintenance of perfection, as against all third parties, of the Borrower’s and the Facility Agent’s (on behalf of the Secured Parties) right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (including the security interest in the Collateral related thereto and the security interests provided for herein).

- 45 -

therefrom do not result in the Borrower’s failure to meet the Borrowing Base Test, the Required Equity Test, the Overcollateralization Ratio Test or the Interest Coverage Test or result in the failure to satisfy any Collateral Quality Test or, with respect to each Collateral Quality Test which was not satisfied immediately prior thereto, result in the maintenance or improvement of the Borrower’s degree of compliance with such Collateral Quality Test.

(b) Acceleration. The Servicer shall accelerate the maturity of all or any Scheduled Payments under any Transferred Loan under which a default under the terms thereof has occurred and is continuing (after the lapse of any applicable grace period) promptly after such Loan becomes a Defaulted Loan or such earlier or later time as is consistent with the Management Manual and the terms of such Loan. The Servicer shall provide prompt notice to the Facility Agent and each Managing Agent and Rating Agency of any such acceleration.

(c) Taxes and other Amounts. To the extent provided for in any Transferred Loan, the Servicer will use its best efforts to collect all payments with respect to amounts due for taxes, assessments and insurance premiums relating to such Transferred Loans or the Related Property and remit such amounts to the appropriate Governmental Authority or insurer on or prior to the date such payments are due.

(d) Payments to Collection Account. On or before the Purchase Date in respect of any Transferred Loan, the Servicer shall have instructed the Obligor of such Transferred Loan to make all payments in respect thereof by wire transfer of funds directly to the Collection Account.

(e) Establishment and Maintenance of the Collection Account.

(i) The Borrower or the Servicer on its behalf have heretofore established and shall maintain in the name of the Borrower and assigned to the Facility Agent as agent for the Secured Parties, a segregated corporate trust account (the “Collection Account”) for the purpose of receiving Collections from the Collateral. The Collection Account shall be held by the Securities Custodian in accordance with the Custody Agreement and shall at all times be maintained with a Securities Intermediary which is an office or branch of a depository institution or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any one of the States thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank); provided, however, that at all times such depository institution or trust company shall be a Qualified Institution. The Securities Custodian may establish subaccounts within the Collection Account.

(ii) To the extent there are uninvested amounts deposited in the Collection Account, the Servicer, prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event, and thereafter the Facility Agent, may direct the Securities Custodian to invest all such amounts in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower or by the Facility Agent, as the case may be. Any such Permitted Investments which are made prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event and on any day other than the Business Day immediately preceding a

- 46 -

Payment Date shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date following the date of such investment, and otherwise any such Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the next Business Day immediately following the date of such investment. Any earnings (or losses) on investments of funds in the Collection Account shall be credited (or debited) to the Collection Account. Neither the Facility Agent nor the Securities Custodian shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment of funds in the Collection Account.

(f) Establishment of Tax Reserve Accounts.

(i) In the event that the Borrower is required to establish a cash reserve as contemplated by Section 4.1(k), the Borrower or the Servicer on its behalf shall cause to be established and maintained in the name of the Borrower, a segregated account for such reserve (each, a “Tax Reserve Account”) and shall cause such Tax Reserve Account to be subject to an Account Control Agreement. The Borrower shall on each Payment Date and in accordance with the Priority of Payments deposit sufficient funds therein from the amounts otherwise available to pay any Taxes being contested. Each Tax Reserve Account shall be subject to a security interest in favor of the Facility Agent as agent for the Secured Parties and shall be held by the Securities Custodian in accordance with the Custody Agreement and shall at all times be maintained with a Securities Intermediary which is an office or branch of a depository institution or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any one of the States thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank); provided, however, that at all times such depository institution or trust company shall be a Qualified Institution.

(ii) Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise standing to the credit of, a Tax Reserve Account shall be available at the direction of the Servicer to fund payment of the Tax in respect of which such Tax Reserve Account was established. Upon receipt by the Securities Custodian and the Facility Agent of a certification from the Servicer and an Opinion of Counsel that the Borrower’s contest of the validity of a Tax for which a Tax Reserve Account was established has concluded and that all amounts, if any, payable with respect to such Tax have been paid in full, the Securities Custodian shall at the direction of the Servicer transfer funds on deposit in such Tax Reserve Account to the Collection Account. On each Payment Date, any amounts on deposit in a Tax Reserve Account in excess of the amount required to be held therein in order for the Borrower to remain in compliance with Section 4.1(k) with respect to the related Tax being contested shall be transferred by the Securities Custodian at the direction of the Servicer to the Collection Account.

(iii) To the extent there are uninvested amounts deposited in a Tax Reserve Account, the Servicer, prior to the occurrence of a Termination

- 47 -

Event, and thereafter the Facility Agent may direct the Securities Custodian to invest all such amounts in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower or by the Facility Agent, as the case may be. Any such Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately following the date of such investment. Any earnings (and losses) on investments of funds in a Tax Reserve Account shall be credited (or debited) to such Tax Reserve Account. Neither the Facility Agent nor the Securities Custodian shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment of funds in any Tax Reserve Account.

(g) Establishment and Maintenance of the Interest Reserve Account.

(i) The Borrower or the Servicer on its behalf have heretofore established and shall maintain in the name of the Borrower and assigned to the Facility Agent as agent for the Secured Parties, a segregated corporate trust account (the “Interest Reserve Account”). The Interest Reserve Account shall be held by the Securities Custodian in accordance with the Custody Agreement and shall at all times be maintained with a Securities Intermediary which is an office or branch of a depository institution or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any one of the States thereof or the District of Columbia (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank); provided, however, that at all times such depository institution or trust company shall be a Qualified Institution.

(ii) Deposits shall be made into the Interest Reserve Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and the Borrower may make deposits into the Interest Reserve Account from time to time from its funds not required to be applied in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(iii) On each Payment Date, the Servicer shall direct the Securities Custodian and, at the direction of the Servicer, the Securities Custodian shall transfer funds on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account to the Collection Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the amounts required to be paid from the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (ii) through (vi) and (viii) of Section 2.8 on such Payment Date, over (B) Available Collections for such Payment Date (determined before giving effect to any amounts transferred from the Interest Reserve Account) available for the payment thereof and (ii) the amount then on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account.

(iv) To the extent there are uninvested amounts deposited in the Interest Reserve Account, the Servicer, prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event, and thereafter the Facility Agent may direct the Securities Custodian to invest all such amounts in Permitted Investments selected by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower or by the Facility Agent, as the case may be. Any such Permitted Investments which are made prior to the occurrence of a Termination

- 48 -

Event and on any day other than the Business Day immediately preceding a Payment Date shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date following the date of such investment, and otherwise any such Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the next Business Day immediately following the date of such investment. Any earnings (and losses) on investments of funds in the Interest Reserve Account shall be credited or debited to Interest Reserve Account. Neither the Facility Agent nor the Securities Custodian shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment of funds in the Interest Reserve Account.

(h) Qualified Institutions. In the event the Servicer has received notice from the Facility Agent or otherwise has actual knowledge that a depositary holding any of the Transaction Accounts ceases to be a Qualified Institution, then the Servicer shall give notice thereof to the Facility Agent (if applicable), the Securities Custodian and the Rating Agency and within 60 days shall cause such Transaction Account to become established and maintained with a Qualified Institution.

(i) Account Control Agreements. The Servicer and the Borrower shall at all times cause each Transaction Account to be subject to the provisions of an Account Control Agreement which shall be in full force and effect. The Facility Agent agrees that it shall not deliver a notice of exclusive control pursuant to any Account Control Agreement unless a Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing.

(j) Adjustments. If (i) the Servicer makes a deposit into the Collection Account in respect of a Collection of a Loan in the Collateral and such Collection was received by the Servicer in the form of a check that is not honored for any reason or (ii) the Servicer makes a mistake with respect to the amount of any Collection and deposits an amount that is less than or more than the actual amount of such Collection, the Servicer shall appropriately adjust the amount subsequently deposited into the Collection Account to reflect such dishonored check or mistake. Any Scheduled Payment in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid.

Section 7.5 Servicer Advances.

For each Collection Period, if the Servicer determines that any Scheduled Payment (or portion thereof) that was due and payable pursuant to a Loan included in the Collateral during such Collection Period was not received prior to the end of such Collection Period, the Servicer may, but shall not be obligated to, make an advance in an amount up to the amount of such delinquent Scheduled Payment (or portion thereof) to the extent that the Servicer reasonably expects to be reimbursed for such advance; in addition, if on any day there are not sufficient funds on deposit in the Collection Account to pay accrued Interest on any Advance or Facility Fees, the Servicer may make an advance in the amount necessary to pay such Interest or Facility Fees (in either case, any such advance, a “Servicer Advance”). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Successor Servicer will not be obligated to make any Servicer Advances. The Servicer will deposit any Servicer Advances into the Collection Account on or

- 49 -

prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the related Payment Date, in immediately available funds.

Section 7.6 Realization Upon Defaulted Loans or Charged-Off Loans.

The Servicer will use reasonable efforts to repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of any Related Property with respect to a Defaulted Loan or Charged-Off Loan and will act as sales and processing agent for Related Property that it repossesses. The Servicer will follow the practices and procedures set forth in the Management Manual in order to realize upon such Related Property. Without limiting the foregoing, the Servicer may sell any such Related Property with respect any Defaulted Loan or Charged-Off Loan to the Servicer or its Affiliates for a purchase price equal to the then fair market value thereof; any such sale to be evidenced by a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer delivered to the Facility Agent identifying the Defaulted Loan or Charged-Off Loan and the Related Property, setting forth the sale price of the Related Property and certifying that such sale price is equal to the fair market value of such Related Property. In any case in which any such Related Property has suffered damage, the Servicer will not expend funds in connection with any repair or toward the repossession of such Related Property unless it reasonably determines that such repair and/or repossession will increase the Recoveries by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. The Servicer will remit to the Securities Custodian for deposit into the Collection Account the Recoveries received in connection with the sale or disposition of Related Property with respect to a Defaulted Loan or Charged-Off Loan.

Section 7.7 Servicer Optional Repurchases of Transferred Loans; Releases of Transferred Loans.

(a) The Servicer may, at any time at its sole option, but subject in all cases to compliance with the assumptions set forth in the legal opinion referred to in Sections 3.1(a) of the Existing Loan and Servicing Agreement with respect to substantive consolidation and sale characterization, with respect to any Transferred Loan that it determines, request to purchase any Transferred Loan, together with any Related Property, Insurance Policies, Loan Documents and Supplemental Interests related to such Loan (collectively, the “Repurchased Collateral”), with respect to which (i) the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower has received notice of the related Obligor’s intention to prepay such Transferred Loan in full within a period of not more than 60 days from the date of such notification, (ii) is within 60 days of such Transferred Loan’s maturity date, (iii) the Servicer believes, in the exercise of its reasonable discretion, will likely become a Defaulted Loan or a Charged-Off Loan, or that has become a Defaulted Loan or a Charged-Off Loan, notify the Borrower, the Facility Agent and each Managing Agent that it is requesting to purchase such Repurchased Collateral or (iv) was a Rating Pending Loan after the Third Restatement Effective Date and which Xxxxx’x has assigned a Xxxxx’x Rating Factor of 4,770 or higher; provided, however, that in any Annual Period, with respect to this clause (iv), (A) the Servicer may repurchase no more than two (2) such Transferred Loans and (B) the aggregate Outstanding Balance of such repurchased Transferred Loans shall not exceed 15% of the Collateral Value of all Eligible Loans.

- 50 -

(b) The Servicer may, subject to the consent of the Required Lenders, acting in their sole discretion, and subject in all cases to compliance with the assumptions set forth in the legal opinion referred to in Sections 3.1(a) of the Existing Loan and Servicing Agreement with respect to substantive consolidation and sale characterization, request to purchase any Repurchased Collateral.

(c) The Servicer may request purchase of Repurchased Collateral pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above by providing five Business Days’ prior written notice to Borrower, the Facility Agent and each Managing Agent. The Borrower may agree to such purchase provided that such Repurchased Collateral shall have been released from the Collateral as provided in Section 7.7(d) below. With respect to any Repurchased Collateral, the Servicer shall enter into an agreement with the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit H and shall, on the date of purchase, remit to the Borrower in immediately available funds an amount equal to the Repurchase Price therefor. Upon each purchase of Repurchased Collateral by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Borrower shall automatically and without further action be deemed to transfer, assign and set-over to the Servicer all the right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under such Repurchased Collateral and all monies due or to become due with respect thereto, all proceeds thereof and all rights to security for any such Repurchased Collateral, and all proceeds and products of the foregoing, free and clear of any Lien created pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) In connection with any repurchase of a Transferred Loan by the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.7(a) or (b) above or any repurchase of any Transferred Loan by the Seller pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Purchase Agreement, but subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 7.7(d), the Borrower, may from time to time, upon providing at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Facility Agent, each Managing Agent, the Documentation Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Custodian, obtain releases of the security interest of the Facility Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in such Transferred Loan (together with any Related Property, Insurance Policies, Loan Documents and Supplemental Interests related to such Loan) by paying into the Collection Account an amount (the “Release Price”) equal to the outstanding principal balance of such Transferred Loan as of the date of release, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The security interest in favor of the Facility Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in all Loans shall continue in effect until such time as the full amount of the related Release Price shall have been deposited into the Collection Account. The Facility Agent will execute and deliver, at the expense of the Borrower, such documentation evidencing such release as the Borrower may reasonably request. The Borrower’s right to obtain a release of Transferred Loans pursuant to this Section 7.7(d) is subject to the conditions that, after giving effect to such release and to such Loans ceasing to be Transferred Loans, (i) there shall exist no Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event, (ii) each of the Borrowing Base Test, Overcollateralization Ratio Test, the Required Equity Test and the Interest Coverage Test shall be satisfied, (iii) such release would cause any Collateral Quality Test which was satisfied immediately prior to such exclusion to continue to be satisfied, and (iv) such release would maintain or improve the Borrower’s degree of compliance with any Collateral Quality Test which was not satisfied immediately prior to such release.

- 51 -

(e) The Borrower may, at its option, elect to offset the Release Price to be paid for any Loan or Loans to the Facility Agent on any Business Day against the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower on such day. In order to make any such election, the Borrower shall give notice of such election in the related Funding Request. If the Borrower makes any such election, then, (x) if the Release Price exceeds such aggregate amount of Advances, the Borrower shall pay only such excess into the Collection Account (and the Lenders shall make no payment to the Borrower in respect of such Advances) or (y) if such aggregate amount of Advances exceeds such Release Price, the Lenders shall fund only such excess to the Borrower (and the Borrower shall make no payment to the Facility Agent in respect of such Release Price).

(f) The Borrower shall, at the sole expense of the initial Servicer, execute such documents and instruments of transfer as may be prepared by the initial Servicer and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the initial Servicer to effect the transfer and release of Transferred Loans pursuant to this Section 7.7.

Section 7.21 Determination of Certain Collateral Quality Tests.

Promptly after receiving a Funding Request or any notice of the Borrower’s acquisition of any Loan or of any proposed release of any Loan from the Collateral (whether pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, by reason of the repurchase or substitution thereof pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.2 of the Purchase Agreement or otherwise, but excluding any release in connection with a realization upon the Collateral in accordance with Section 6.3 hereof) and a loan tape in Microsoft Excel format, the Documentation Agent shall promptly (i) calculate the Diversity Score by reference to the Diversity Score Table set forth in Annex III hereto for the related Aggregate Industry Equivalent Unit Score set forth therein in accordance with the provisions of such Annex using the values set forth in the latest Monthly Report on the tab referencing “Diversity Score”, (ii) calculate the Xxxxx’x Asset Correlation Factor in accordance with the Xxxxx’x asset correlation methodology set forth in Annex IV using the values set forth in the latest Monthly Report on the tab referencing “Xxxxx’x Asset Correlation Inputs” and (iii) provide the Servicer with a report of such calculations and of any discrepancies with the Diversity Score or Xxxxx’x Asset Correlation Factor calculated by the Borrower, or by the Servicer on its behalf.

Section 9.3 Control of Actions.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person under Section 9.1 or 9.2 of notice of the commencement of any investigation, litigation or proceeding (each, an “Action”), such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Borrower or the Servicer under Section 9.1 or 9.2, as applicable, notify the Borrower and/or the Servicer, as the case may be, in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the Borrower and the Servicer (i) will not relieve it from liability under Section 9.1 or 9.2 unless and to the extent such failure results in the forfeiture by the Borrower or the Servicer of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the Borrower or the Servcier from any obligations to any Indemnified Person other than the indemnification obligations provided in Sections 9.1 and 9.2. Each Indemnified Person shall keep the Borrower and/or the Servicer, as the case may be, regularly apprised of all relevant details regarding any Action to which it is a party.

(b) The Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s choice at the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s respective expense to represent the Indemnified Person in any Action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the Borrower or the Servicer shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the Indemnified Person or Persons except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s election to appoint counsel to represent the Indemnified Person in an Action, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall bear the reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel, if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the Borrower or the Servicer to represent the Indemnified Person would present such counsel with an ethical conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such Action include the Indemnified Person and the Borrower or the Servicer and the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified Persons which are different from or additional to those available to the Borrower or the Servicer, (iii) the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such Action or (iv) the Borrower or the Servicer shall authorize the Indemnified Person to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be. The Borrower or the Servicer will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Persons, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened Action in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Indemnified Persons are actual or potential parties to such Action) unless

- 75 -

such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such Action. No Indemnified Persons will, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and/or the Servicer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened Action in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the Borrower is an actual or potential party to such Action); provided that such consent shall be deemed to have been granted if, within thirty (30) days following the written request for a consent, the Borrower or the Servicer shall not have provided an indemnity bond, in form and substance and from an issuer reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Persons, in an amount equal to the amount reasonably estimated by such Indemnified Persons to be their maximum exposure in such Action, assuring payment to such Indemnified Persons of the indemnification which may be payable under this Agreement.
