Section 2.01 Purchase and Sale.
(a) In consideration of the Depositor’s promise to pay the Purchase Price with respect to each Loan purchased by the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor from such Seller hereunder, each Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets-over and otherwise conveys, from time to time, to the Depositor and, solely with respect to legal title to such Loans, the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, without recourse except as expressly provided herein, all of such Seller’s right, title and interest in, to, and under the following assets (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”):
(i) each such Loan identified on the Assignment Agreement, in the case of Initial Loans, and each Loan identified in the manner specified in Section 2.01(c) and subsequently identified on an Additional Loan Assignment, in each case, as the same exist at the applicable Cut-Off Date;
(ii) each Renewal Loan created or arising out of a Renewal of a Loan described in clause (i) hereof, effected during the Revolving Period, as the same exist at the applicable Cut-Off Date;
(iii) the related Loan Agreement and all rights and privileges of such Seller accruing thereunder after the applicable Cut-Off Date, including the right to receive all Collections on such Loan from the related Loan Obligors received after the applicable Cut-Off Date;
(iv) all of such Seller’s interest in the goods (including returned or repossessed goods), if any, securing such Loan, and all insurance contracts with respect to such goods, and all other security interests or liens and property subject thereto from time to time, if any, purporting to secure payment of such Loan whether pursuant to the Loan Agreement related to such Loan or otherwise, together with all financing statements and security agreements describing any collateral securing such Loan;
(v) all guaranties, letters of credit, letter of credit rights, “supporting obligations” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a) of the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions), insurance and other agreements or arrangements of whatever character from time to time supporting or securing payment of such Loan whether pursuant to the Loan Agreement related to such Loan or otherwise and all rights of the Seller thereunder;
(vi) any and all servicing rights associated with the related Loans; and
(vii) all proceeds of the foregoing.
The foregoing does not constitute and is not intended to result in the creation or an assumption by the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity), the Issuer, the Issuer Loan Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity), the Owner Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity), the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder of any obligation of any Seller, the Servicer or any other Person in connection with the Loans or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto, including any obligations to Loan Obligors.
(b) Each Seller shall prepare and file (and hereby authorizes the Depositor to prepare and file) on or within ten days of the Closing Date, all the financing statements (and amendments to financing statements when applicable) with respect to the Loans and the other Purchased Assets meeting the requirements of applicable law in such a manner and in such jurisdictions as are necessary to perfect, and maintain the perfection of, the transfer and assignment of the Loans (including Initial Loans and Additional Loans) and the other Purchased Assets to each of the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor
-2-
in each case as a first-priority perfected ownership interest, and to deliver a file stamped copy of each such financing statement or other evidence of such filing to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee, and, in the case of amendments to financing statements, as soon as practicable after receipt thereof by the Sellers or the Depositor. In the event that any transfer of Additional Loans requires any filing or documents necessary to maintain the interest of the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor and their assigns as a first-priority perfected ownership interest, the affected Seller shall cause all such filings and recordings to be made on or within ten days of the date of such transfer and promptly provide evidence thereof to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee.
(c) On or prior to the initial Funding Date or the relevant Addition Date, as applicable, each Seller shall xxxx its electronic records with respect to each Loan sold hereunder by such Seller with a designation to indicate that the Loans and the related Purchased Assets have been sold to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor under this Agreement, further conveyed to the Issuer and the Issuer Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and a security interest therein granted to the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture. In connection with any Renewal of a Loan, such marking of the electronic records shall include recordation of the loan number for the original Loan subject to such Renewal in the electronic file for the Renewal Loan. Each Seller shall not change any of these entries in its computer files relating to its applicable Loan except for such entries as may be required to give effect to other provisions of this Agreement; provided, that after a Loan shall have been repaid in full (and all Collections in respect thereof shall have been deposited into the Collection Account) or shall have become a Terminated Loan (and with respect to such Terminated Loan (y) the related Renewal Loan has been included on an electronic file identifying Renewal Loans that have become Additional Loans pursuant to Section 2.03(c) herein or (z) the related Terminated Loan Price shall have been deposited into the Principal Distribution Account pursuant to Section 5.01(h) herein and Section 2.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement), such entries may be removed consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy.
(d) On or prior to the initial Funding Date, each Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee the Loan Schedule identifying the Loans sold by such Seller as of the initial Funding Date, which Loan Schedule is attached as Schedule II hereto. In addition, each Seller further agrees, on the Monthly Determination Date following the end of each Collection Period, to deliver or to cause to be delivered to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee, an updated Loan Schedule (i) including (A) all Loans that were included in Purchased Assets at the close of business on the last day of the immediately preceding Collection Period (other than any Loans identified in clause (ii) below) and (B) all Additional Loans acquired by the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor from such Seller in connection with an Additional Loan Assignment on any Addition Date preceding such Monthly Determination Date, but (ii) excluding any Loans acquired by such Seller from the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor in connection with any optional reassignment of Loans pursuant to Section 6.03 or 6.04 herein occurring on any Document Delivery Date preceding such Monthly Determination Date. Such Loan Schedule will also separately identify each Loan that is designated as an Excluded Loan as of such Monthly Determination Date. All acts required of a Seller in this paragraph must be taken at a Seller’s own expense.
-3-
(e) The parties intend that the transfer of the Purchased Assets by each Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor be an absolute sale and not a secured borrowing. If the transaction under this Agreement were determined to be a loan rather than an absolute sale despite this intent of the parties, the transfers provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the grant of, and each Seller hereby grants to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, a first-priority security interest in all of such Seller’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Purchased Assets to secure such Seller’s obligations under this Agreement including the obligation to cause the sale of the Loans and the payment of all monies due under the Purchased Assets to the Depositor and its assigns. This grant is a protective measure and must not be construed as evidence of any intent contrary to the one expressed in the first sentence of this paragraph, nor should the intent expressed in the first sentence of this paragraph be deemed to be an expression of the intended tax treatment of the conveyance of the Purchased Assets.
Section 2.02 Documents and Certificates. On the initial Funding Date, each Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee an Assignment Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Assignment Agreement”), relating to the Loans and other Purchased Assets purchased by the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, dated the initial Funding Date, and appropriately completed and duly executed. Each of Sellers, the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee shall, at or prior to the Closing Date and the initial Funding Date, as the case may be, execute and deliver all such additional instruments, documents or certificates as may be reasonably requested by the other parties for the consummation on the Closing Date and the initial Funding Date, as the case may be, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Section 2.03 Inclusion of Additional Loans.
(a) Any Seller, with the consent of the Depositor (which it may provide or withhold in its sole discretion), may designate from time to time Additional Loans to be sold to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement. Sales of Additional Loans (other than Renewal Loans with respect to Renewal Loan Replacements) to the Depositor shall only occur and be effective on the applicable Addition Date and shall be evidenced by the Seller’s marking of its computer records as specified in Section 2.01(c) herein immediately prior to the start of business on such Addition Date. As soon as practicable, but in any event no later than the fifth Business Day following the applicable Addition Date (the “Document Delivery Date”), each Seller shall deliver an Additional Loan Assignment as provided in Section 2.03(b)(iii).
(b) In connection with the conveyance of any Additional Loans to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor as described in Section 2.03(a), the obligation of the Depositor to pay the Purchase Price for such Additional Loans on the related Payment Date is subject to the following conditions:
(i) on or before the applicable Addition Date, the applicable Seller shall give the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee written notice (unless such notice requirement is otherwise waived) specifying, with respect to the applicable Addition
-4-
Date, the expected number of Additional Loans (other than Renewal Loans with respect to a Renewal Loan Replacement) sold and the expected aggregate Principal Balances outstanding of such Additional Loans (other than Renewal Loans with respect to Renewal Loan Replacements); provided, that no such notice shall be required with respect to any Renewal of Loans or conveyances related thereto;
(ii) the applicable Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee an Officer’s Certificate, dated as of the Monthly Determination Date immediately following such Addition Date, and certifying that (x) as of the applicable Additional Cut-Off Date, the Additional Loans conveyed on such Addition Date were all Eligible Loans and (y) each of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03(b) have been satisfied with respect to the addition of each such Additional Loan; provided, however, that in the case of a Renewal of a Loan or conveyance related thereto, the applicable Seller shall be deemed to have provided such certifications upon the Renewal without any further action; and
(iii)(A) on each Document Delivery Date, the applicable Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee an Additional Loan Assignment and an Additional Loan Assignment Schedule further identifying each Additional Loan being sold on the applicable Addition Date and (B) on the fifth Business Day following each Monthly Loan Action Date, the applicable Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee an Additional Loan Assignment and an Additional Loan Assignment Schedule identifying each Renewal Loan with respect to a Renewal Loan Replacement which became an Additional Loan during the immediately preceding Collection Period.
(c) Upon the conveyance of each Additional Loan to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, the applicable Seller hereby represents that:
(i) as of the applicable Addition Date, no Insolvency Event with respect to such Seller shall have occurred, nor shall the transfer of the Loans conveyed by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor have been made in contemplation of the occurrence thereof;
(ii) as of the applicable Addition Date, the Revolving Period was then in effect;
(iii) as of the applicable Addition Date, such Seller reasonably believed that the transfer of the Additional Loans to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor would not result in an Adverse Effect;
(iv) other than in respect of any Renewal Loan conveyed to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor in connection with a Renewal Loan Replacement, as of the applicable Addition Date, such Seller shall not have used selection procedures reasonably believed by such Seller to be materially adverse to the interests of the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee or the Noteholders in selecting such Additional Loans; and
-5-
(v) as of the applicable Addition Date, no potential Event of Default, Event of Default, potential Servicer Default, Servicer Default, potential Early Amortization Event or Early Amortization Event, in each case, with respect to the applicable Seller, has occurred and is continuing or will occur as a result of the conveyance of such Additional Loan.
(d) Each Seller and the Depositor hereby confirm and agree, and represent and warrant, that each Renewal Loan constitutes “proceeds” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(64) of the New York UCC) of the Loan subjected to a Renewal. Pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Issuer (as assignee of the Depositor hereunder) has authorized the Servicer and Subservicers to effect Renewals of Loans in the Trust Estate as provided therein and herein. During the Revolving Period, so long as the Seller with respect to any Loan is also the Subservicer (or, in the event that there is no Subservicer with respect to such Loan, the Servicer), the applicable Seller hereby agrees to, and immediately upon effecting any Renewal and without further action hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets-over and otherwise conveys, automatically and without further action, all of its rights as described in Section 2.01 above to each such Renewal Loan (to the extent not previously conveyed) to the Depositor and, solely with respect to legal title of such Renewal Loan, the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor. Immediately upon effecting any such Renewal Loan Replacement, the Seller shall xxxx its electronic records with respect to the related Renewal Loan with the designation required by Section 2.01(c). Such assignment shall be effective as of the date such Renewal Loan Replacement is effected, which date shall also be the Addition Date with respect thereto. In connection with each Renewal described in this Section 2.03(c), each Seller hereby agrees that within two Business Days of such Renewal, such Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor an electronic file of all such Renewal Loans effected on such day and identifying (i) with respect to each Renewal Loan, such Loan’s (A) loan number, (B) branch code, (C) Loan origination date, (D) unique loan identifier, (E) Loan Principal Balance as of the applicable Cut-Off Date and (F) the Seller and Subservicer or Servicer, with respect to such Loan, as applicable and (ii) with respect to the related Terminated Loan, such Terminated Loan’s (A) loan number, (B) branch code, (C) unique loan identifier, and (D) the Seller and Subservicer or Servicer, with respect to such Loan, as applicable.
Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties. Each Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor that, in the case of Additional Loans, the Additional Loan Assignment Schedule, to the extent required to be delivered, is, with respect to each Additional Loan, as of the applicable Additional Cut-Off Date with respect to each such Additional Loan, true and complete in all material respects.
Section 2.05 Investment Company Act Restriction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Seller and the Depositor hereby acknowledge and agree that the Depositor shall not, and shall not be required to, acquire any additional Loans or related assets, or purchase, repurchase, reassign or otherwise dispose of any Loans or related assets pursuant to this Agreement, for the primary purpose of recognizing gains or decreasing losses for itself or the Issuer as a result of market value changes.

ARTICLE III
CONSIDERATION AND PAYMENT
Section 3.01 Purchase Price.
(a) In consideration of the conveyance of the Purchased Assets by a Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor from time to time in accordance with Section 2.01, the Depositor shall pay to, or at the direction of, such Seller the purchase price for the Loans described in the applicable Assignment Agreement, or Additional Loan Assignment, or conveyed in connection with a Renewal Loan Replacement pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof, in each case, which purchase price shall be a price (or formula for determining such price) agreed to by the Depositor and such Seller on or before such Addition Date (the “Purchase Price”), which price shall not in the opinion of the Depositor be materially less favorable to the Depositor than prices for transactions of a generally similar character at the time of the acquisition, taking into account the quality of the applicable Loans and other pertinent factors; provided that such consideration shall in any event not be less than reasonably equivalent value therefor. The Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor shall not be required to purchase any Loan hereunder if the Depositor does not have sufficient funds or other assets which may constitute consideration under the terms hereof (unencumbered by any Lien, including any Lien of the Issuer, the Issuer Loan Trustee or the Indenture Trustee) to pay the Purchase Price in respect of such Loan. The Depositor’s agreement to purchase Additional Loans in Section 2.03(a) shall be deemed a representation by the Depositor that it will have sufficient funds to pay the applicable Purchase Price to the applicable Seller on the date specified in clause (b) below.
(b) The Purchase Price with respect to any Loan is payable by the Depositor at the direction of the related Seller in immediately available funds on the initial Funding Date or the Payment Date immediately following (i) the Collection Period in which Renewal Loans with respect to Renewal Loan Replacements become Additional Loans, and (ii) the Document Delivery Date on which the related Additional Loan Assignment is delivered to the Issuer and the Issuer Loan Trustee with respect to each other Additional Loan sold on a Loan Action Date, as applicable.
(c) In the case of any Additional Loan relating to a Renewal Loan Replacement, the Purchase Price payable on the applicable Payment Date in respect of the applicable Renewal Loan shall be calculated on the excess, if any, of the Loan Principal Balance of such Renewal Loan over the Terminated Loan Price of the Terminated Loan relating to such Renewal Loan, in each case, at the time of the Renewal.
Section 3.02 Purchase Price Adjustments.
(a) Returned Checks. If a check from a Loan Obligor in payment of amounts owed on a Loan is returned unpaid by the drawee after the applicable Cut-Off Date and the
-7-
amount of such check was credited to such account prior to the applicable Cut-Off Date, then the Loan Principal Balance of such Loan shall be increased accordingly and the Depositor agrees to pay to the applicable Seller an amount as determined pursuant to Section 3.02(b).
(b) Notification. If the applicable Seller, the Depositor or the Depositor Loan Trustee is able to identify any purchase price adjustment resulting from the facts relating to the Loans or amounts that are the subject of adjustments provided for in this Section 3.02, then upon identifying any such purchase price adjustments, then to the extent practicable, such party will provide to the other parties written notice and supporting documentation (to the extent available to such party) of such purchase price adjustments prior to each Monthly Determination Date. Not later than the Payment Date occurring after the end of each calendar month, to the extent the Depositor has funds available for such purpose, the Depositor shall reimburse each Seller, in immediately available funds, for the amount of all purchase price adjustments in respect of returned checks during such calendar month, each such adjustment in an amount equal to the Purchase Price that would have been payable in respect of such Loan (giving effect to the increase of the Loan Principal Balance due to such returned check or premium payment) in the event it had been purchased by the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor from such Seller as of the initial Funding Date or the related Addition Date, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that this Section 3.02 shall be implemented fairly and equitably so as to avoid the double payment or failure to pay any amount that would result in the unjust enrichment of any party pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 3.03 Powers of Attorney. Effective upon the Closing Date, each Seller hereby irrevocably names, constitutes, and appoints the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, and each of their respective officers, agents, employees, or representatives (including any servicer) as its duly authorized attorney and agent with full power and authority to (a) endorse in such Seller’s name any check, draft, insurance claim, title document or other instrument of payment or ownership relating to the Loans, including through the use of a rubber stamp with the signature of such Seller thereon, (b) receive and collect any and all monies due under such Loans and (c) enforce performance of all Purchased Assets, including without limitation, directing the Servicer or Subservicer to take any and all permitted actions to enforce the Loan. The power of attorney granted by this provision is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. On the Closing Date, each Seller shall deliver to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee such an executed power of attorney, in blank, in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee.
ARTICLE IV

(a) To induce the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee to enter into this Agreement, each Seller hereby represents and warrants as to itself and solely, where applicable, with respect to the Loans and the related Purchased Assets that it sells to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, as of the Closing Date, the initial
-8-
Funding Date and each Addition Date, as follows (each of which representation and warranty shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement) (for the avoidance of doubt, each Seller acknowledges and agrees that each of the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee are specifically relying (and will continue to rely) upon the representations and warranties to purchase the Loans and the related Purchased Assets and, but for such representations and warranties, would not enter into this Agreement or make any such purchases hereunder):
(i) Such Seller is a corporation organized, validly existing, duly qualified and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the character or location of the properties owned by it or the business transacted by it or the performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents requires licensing and qualification.

(iii) Each of this Agreement and the Conveyance Papers and other Transaction Documents to which it is a party is a legal, valid, and binding obligation of such Seller and is enforceable against such Seller in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws or general principles of equity.
(iv) No approval, authorization, order, license, permit, franchise, or consent of, notice or instruction to, or registration, declaration, qualification, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is required, other than those obtained, if any, in connection with the execution, delivery, and performance by such Seller of this Agreement and the Conveyance Papers and other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the sale of the Loans to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor.
(v) Such Seller’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Conveyance Papers and other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, its performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Conveyance Papers and such other Transaction Documents, and its fulfillment of the terms of this

Agreement, such Conveyance Papers and such Transaction Documents, do not conflict with or violate any Requirement of Law applicable to such Seller. Such Seller is not in default under, and no event has occurred that with the lapse of time or action by a third party could result in a default under, the terms of any judgment, order, writ, decree, permit or license of any agency of any government or court, whether federal, state, municipal or local and whether at law or in equity.
(vi) No Proceeding against such Seller or investigation before any Governmental Authority against such Seller is pending or, to the best of such Seller’s knowledge, threatened, that (A) asserts that this Agreement or the Conveyance Papers or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party are invalid, (B) seeks to prevent the consummation of any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, such Conveyance Papers or such other Transaction Documents, (C) seeks any determination or ruling that, in such Seller’s reasonable judgment, would materially and adversely affect such Seller’s performance under this Agreement, such Conveyance Papers or such other Transaction Documents, or (D) seeks any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, such Conveyance Papers or such other Transaction Documents.
(vii) No practice, procedure or policy employed by each such Seller or any servicer on its behalf in the conduct of its business violates any law, regulation, judgment, agreement, order or decree applicable to such Seller in any respect which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

REPURCHASE OBLIGATION; INDEMNIFICATION
Section 6.01 Reassignment of Loans for Breaches of Representations and Warranties.
(a) Upon the discovery or receipt of notice by the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor or the Depositor Loan Trustee of a breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.02(a) hereof by any Seller with respect to a Loan sold to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor by such Seller at the time such representations and warranties were made which breach materially adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders in such Loan, the party discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the applicable Seller, the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee and the Indenture Trustee (it being understood that the discovering party shall not be required to notify itself). Within sixty (60) days from the date on which the breaching Seller is notified of, or discovered, such breach, the breaching Seller shall either cure such breach in all material respects or purchase the affected Loan at the applicable Repurchase Price (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with Section 6.01(b). For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of the breaching Seller to cure or purchase the affected Loan shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement or otherwise respecting a breach of such representations or warranties with respect to the breaching Seller and the affected Loan.
(b) In the event that a breaching Seller has not cured any breach described in Section 6.01(a) within the required sixty-day period, such Seller must repurchase the subject Loan on the initial Payment Date following the Collection Period in which such sixty-day period expired, by paying to the Depositor within four (4) Business Days after such Payment Date in immediately available funds an amount equal to (i) the Purchase Price paid in respect of such Loan as of the initial Funding Date or in respect of the applicable Addition Date, as applicable, minus (ii) any Collections representing payment of principal received by the Depositor since the date of purchase, plus (iii) any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Depositor or the Issuer in

In addition to (and not in lieu of) any other provisions hereof providing for indemnification in favor of the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, each Seller hereby defends, indemnifies, and holds harmless the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee, the Administrator, the Administrative Agent, the Noteholders, and the Indenture Trustee, their subsidiaries and Affiliates, and any assignees, and each such Person’s respective officers, directors, agents, employees, representatives, consultants, contractors, servants, and attorneys, as well as the respective heirs, personal representatives, successors, assigns, participants and subparticipants of any or all of them and each of the officers, directors, agents, employees, representatives, consultants, contractors, servants, and attorneys of such successors, assigns, participants, and subparticipants (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against, and agrees promptly to pay on demand or reimburse each of them with respect to, any and all liabilities, claims, demands, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and costs), actions or causes of action of any and every kind or nature whatsoever asserted against or incurred by any of them by reason of or arising out of or in any way, directly or indirectly, related or attributable to: (i) the activities of such Seller pursuant to this Agreement, any related agreements or the related Purchased Assets; (ii) the activities of such Seller pursuant to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, including, without limitation, those in any way relating to or arising out of the violation of any Requirements of Law; (iii) any breach of any covenant or agreement or the incorrectness or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of such Seller contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, any certification of such Seller delivered to the Depositor or the Depositor Loan Trustee), including, but not limited to, the failure of any related Loan to be legally enforceable by the Depositor or the Depositor Loan Trustee; (iv) any and all taxes, including real estate, personal property, sales, mortgage, excise, intangible or transfer taxes (but excluding all franchise taxes, taxes on capital and net worth, gross receipts taxes, and taxes imposed on gross or net income), including, without limitation, any and all income and/or excise taxes imposed on the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, by any state or any of its agencies, municipalities or other applicable jurisdictional authorities directly related to the transfer by such Seller of the Purchased Assets, and any and all fees or charges that may at any time arise or become due prior to the payment, performance, and discharge in full of the obligations of such Seller hereunder; (v) the exercise by the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, of any rights or remedies under this Agreement against such Seller; (vi) any misappropriation of funds by such Seller or any party acting on its behalf; (vii)
-19-
any theft by such Seller or any party acting on its behalf; (viii) any disposition of the related Purchased Assets by such Seller or any party acting on its behalf other than in accordance with the Transaction Documents (including, but not limited to, any transfer, sale, or encumbrance of the related Purchased Assets not contemplated hereunder); or (ix) any fraud committed by such Seller or any party acting on its behalf. Such indemnification shall not give such Seller any right to participate in the selection of counsel for the Indemnified Parties or the conduct or settlement of any dispute or proceeding for which indemnification may be claimed. The provisions of this Section shall survive the full payment, performance, and discharge of the obligations of such Seller hereunder and the termination of this Agreement, and shall continue thereafter in full force and effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.02 to the contrary, such Seller shall not indemnify or hold any Indemnified Party harmless from and against any liabilities, claims, demands, losses, damages, costs or expenses incurred thereby (i) to the extent that such damage results from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (ii) to the extent that providing such indemnity would constitute recourse for losses due to the uncollectibility of any related Purchased Asset due to the insolvency, bankruptcy or financial inability to pay of the related Loan Obligor arising or occurring at any time after the date of its conveyance and transfer hereunder or changes in the market value of the Loans (other than as a result of any action, misrepresentation or omission of the Seller).
Section 6.03 Optional Repurchase of Loans. The Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor may acquire Reassigned Loans from the Issuer and the Issuer Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

If the Issuer exercises its option to redeem the Notes in connection with a refinancing thereof pursuant to Section 8.08(a) of the Indenture, the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor have the option to acquire the Loans from the Issuer and the Issuer Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.09(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. No Seller shall be permitted to acquire any Loan that the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of Depositor acquired pursuant to the exercise of their option pursuant to Section 2.09(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
Section 6.04 Facilitation of Permitted Asset Releases. From time to time, the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor may acquire Reassigned Loans from the Issuer and the Issuer Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.10 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement in order to consummate a Permitted Asset Release in which such Reassigned Loans are to be sold in a series of transfers to the issuer of a separate personal loan securitization established by Holdings or a Subsidiary thereof. In connection with such Permitted Asset Release, the Depositor and the Depositor Loan
-20-
Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor may assign their rights and interests in each such Reassigned Loan and the related Purchased Assets to Holdings or one or more Sellers in order to facilitate the sale of such Reassigned Loan to the relevant personal loan securitization issuer. Such transactions will occur substantially contemporaneously in time, and in connection with the consummation of the sale to the personal loan securitization issuer, the purchase price paid for such Reassigned Loans by the issuer shall be equal to the Reassignment Price. Notwithstanding Section 6.03, the assignment of such Reassigned Loans to one or more Sellers in connection with any Permitted Asset Release contemplated by this Section 6.04 is permitted.

1. This Loan Purchase Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Loans sold by such Seller in favor of the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, which security interest is prior to all other Liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from such Seller.
2. The Loans sold by such Seller constitute “tangible chattel paper,” “electronic chattel paper,” “accounts,” “instruments” or “general intangibles” within the meaning of the UCC.
3. Such Seller owns and has good and marketable title to the Loans sold by such Seller free and clear of any Lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.
4. Such Seller has received all consents and approvals to the sale of the Loans sold by such Seller hereunder to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor required by the terms of the applicable Loan Agreement to the extent that it constitutes an instrument.
5. Such Seller has caused, within ten days after the effective date of this Loan Purchase Agreement, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the sale of and the security interest in the Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, and if any additional such filing is necessary in connection with any Additional Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, such Seller will cause such filings to be made within ten days of the applicable Addition Date. All such financing statements referred to in this paragraph contain a statement that: “A purchase of or security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Secured Party/Purchaser.”
6. (a) Other than the security interest granted and the conveyance to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement, such Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased Assets sold by such Seller.
(b) Such Seller has not authorized the filing of, and is not aware of, any financing statements against such Seller that include a description of collateral covering the Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor other than any financing statement (i) relating to the conveyance of such Loans by the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the

8. Such Seller has in its possession (or the Custodian has in its possession) (i) all original copies of the instruments and tangible chattel paper that constitute or evidence the Loans sold by the Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor and (ii) to the extent any such single “authoritative copy” exists, a single “authoritative copy” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) of any electronic chattel paper that constitute or evidence the Loans sold by the Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor. None of the instruments, electronic chattel paper or tangible chattel paper that constitute or evidence the Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Depositor, the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Issuer Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.

9. With respect to each Loan Agreement that constitutes electronic chattel paper, all of the following are true:

III-2
(v) Neither the Seller nor any other Person has communicated an “authoritative copy” (as such term is used in Section 9-105 of the UCC) of such Loan Agreement that constitutes or evidences the Loan to any Person other than the Custodian or any Subservicer (in its capacity as subcustodian) pursuant to the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
(vi) Either (a) the Indenture Trustee has received a written acknowledgment from the Custodian that the Custodian or a Subservicer (in its capacity as subcustodian) is holding the authoritative copy of such Loan Agreement solely on behalf and for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuer, or (b) the Indenture Trustee received a written acknowledgment from the Servicer that the Servicer is acting solely as agent of the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Issuer.

Such Seller shall, from time to time and within the time limits established by law, prepare and file, all financing statements, amendments, continuations, initial financing statements in lieu of a continuation statement, terminations, partial terminations, releases or partial releases, or any other filings necessary or advisable to continue, maintain and perfect the security interest of the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor in the Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and the Depositor Loan Trustee for the benefit of the Depositor as a first-priority interest.
