ARTICLE II

TRANSFER OF THE CONVEYED COLLATERAL

Section 2.1. Transfer of the Conveyed Collateral.

(a) Transfer from the Originator to the Depositor. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Originator hereby sells, conveys and transfers to the Depositor all of the Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Initial Collateral Obligations and any related Assets with respect thereto (the “Initial Conveyed Collateral”) for a purchase price on the date hereof of $233,663,693, which purchase price shall be the value thereof as determined by the board of directors of the Originator in accordance with the 1940 Act (but in no event at less than fair market value). The consideration for the transfer of the Initial Conveyed Collateral from the Originator to the Depositor shall consist of cash paid by the Depositor to the Originator on the date hereof and, to the extent that such cash so paid on the date hereof is less than the purchase price thereof, the difference shall be deemed a capital contribution from the Originator to the Depositor on the date hereof.

(b) Transfer from the Depositor to the Issuer. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Depositor hereby sells, conveys and transfers to the Issuer all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Initial Conveyed Collateral for a purchase price on the date hereof of $233,663,693. The consideration for the transfer of the Initial Conveyed Collateral from the Depositor to the Issuer shall consist of cash paid by the Issuer to the Depositor on the date hereof and the issuance by the Issuer to the Depositor of all of the Subordinated Notes.

(c) Each of the Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer agrees and acknowledges that the Issuer may, as permitted under the Indenture, acquire Additional Collateral Obligations and related Assets with respect thereto (the “Additional Conveyed Collateral”), and may acquire Substitute Collateral Obligations and any related Assets as set forth in Section 2.5 and the Indenture with respect thereto (the “Substitute Conveyed Collateral” and, together with the Additional Conveyed Collateral, the “Subsequent Conveyed Collateral”), in each case, pursuant to a Subsequent Transfer Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, duly executed by each of the Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer (each such agreement, a “Subsequent Transfer Agreement”) and the parties hereto agree that each such Subsequent Transfer Agreement will be deemed to become part of this Agreement as of the date of its execution (each such date, a “Transfer Date”) without further amendment hereof.

(d) Each of the Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer agrees that (i) the representations, warranties and covenants of the Originator and the Depositor set forth herein will run to and be for the benefit of the Issuer and the Trustee and (ii) either the Issuer or the Trustee may enforce, directly without joinder of the Depositor, the repurchase obligations of the Originator with respect to breaches of such representations, warranties and covenants as set forth herein. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties is a third party beneficiary of such representations, warranties and covenants. By its signature below, the Trustee hereby acknowledges such rights granted to it hereunder.

(e) Each of the Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer intends and agrees that (i) the transfer of the Conveyed Collateral by the Originator to the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement, and the transfer of the Conveyed Collateral by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement is, in each and every case, intended to be an absolute sale, conveyance and transfer of ownership of the applicable Conveyed Collateral rather than the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing and (ii) such Conveyed Collateral shall not be part of the Originator’s or the Depositor’s respective estate in the event of a filing of a bankruptcy petition or other action by or against such Person under any Insolvency Law. In the event, however, that notwithstanding such intent and agreement, any of such transfers are deemed to secure indebtedness, the Originator hereby Grants to the Depositor, and the Depositor hereby Grants to the Issuer, as the case may be, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under such Conveyed Collateral (whether now existing or hereafter created) and the Issuer hereby further Grants such security interest to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties. For such purposes, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under the UCC, securing the repayment of the purchase price paid hereunder and the obligations or interests represented by the Notes, in the order and priorities, and subject to the other terms and conditions of, this Agreement and the Indenture, together with such other obligations or interest as may arise hereunder and thereunder in favor of the parties hereto and thereto.

(f) If any such transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the Originator to the Depositor (whether Initial Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Subsequent Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing, the Depositor may, to secure the Depositor’s own obligations under this Agreement (to the extent that the transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the Depositor to the Issuer hereunder is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing), repledge and reassign to the Issuer (and the Issuer may repledge and reassign to the Trustee) (1) all or a portion of the Conveyed Collateral pledged to the Depositor by the Originator and with respect to which the Depositor has not released its security interest at the time of such pledge and assignment and (2) all proceeds thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made with or without a repledge and reassignment by the Depositor of its rights under any agreement with the Originator, and without further notice to or acknowledgement from the Originator. The Originator hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the Depositor or any assignee relating to such repledge and reassignment in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Originator and the Depositor shall file or shall cause to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement naming the Originator as debtor, the Depositor as secured party and the Trustee as assignee, listing all of the Conveyed Collateral pledged hereunder as collateral thereunder.

(g) If any such transfer of Conveyed Collateral by the Depositor to the Issuer (whether Initial Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(b) or Subsequent Conveyed Collateral transferred pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) is deemed to be the mere granting of a security interest to secure a financing, the Issuer may, to secure the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture, repledge and reassign to the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties (1) all or a portion of the Conveyed Collateral pledged to the Issuer by the Depositor and with respect to which the Issuer has not released its security interest at the time of such pledge and assignment and (2) all proceeds thereof. Such repledge and reassignment may be made with or without a repledge and reassignment by the Issuer of its rights under any agreement with the Depositor, and without further notice to or acknowledgment from the Depositor. The Depositor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims, causes of action and remedies, whether legal or equitable (including any right of setoff), against the Issuer or any assignee relating to such repledge or reassignment in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Issuer and the Depositor shall file or shall cause to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement naming the Depositor as debtor, the Issuer as secured party and the Trustee as assignee, listing all of the Conveyed Collateral pledged hereunder as collateral thereunder.

(h) To the extent that (i) the consideration received by the Originator from the Depositor in exchange for any Conveyed Collateral and (ii) the consideration received by the Depositor from the Issuer for any Conveyed Collateral is less than the fair market value of such Conveyed Collateral, the difference between such fair market value and the consideration so received shall be deemed to be a capital contribution by the Originator to the Depositor (in the case of clause (i) above), and by the Depositor to the Issuer (in the case of clause (ii) above) made on the Closing Date in the case of the Initial Conveyed Collateral and as of the related Transfer Date in the case of any Subsequent Conveyed Collateral. For all purposes of this Agreement, any contributed Conveyed Assets shall be treated the same as the Conveyed Assets sold for cash or other property including, without limitation, for purposes of Section 7.2.

Section 2.2. Conveyance of Initial Conveyed Collateral.

(a) On or before the Closing Date, the Originator or the Depositor, as applicable, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee each of the documents, certificates and other items as follows:

(ii) a copy of a written consent of the board of directors of Xxxxx Capital BDC, Inc., in its capacity as Originator and in its capacities as the designated manager of the Depositor and of the Issuer, approving the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder, certified, in each case as applicable, by an Officer of Xxxxx Capital BDC, Inc., in such capacities (which, for the avoidance of doubt, constitutes the First Tier Loan Sale Agreement and Second Tier Loan Sale Agreement authorized by such written consent);

(iii) evidence that the lien of Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. against GCMF under the GCMF Credit Facility is released;

(iv) a UCC financing statement executed by the Originator, as debtor, naming the Depositor as secured party (and the Trustee as assignee for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and identifying the Conveyed Collateral as collateral for filing with the office of the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware; and execution and delivery of a UCC financing statement executed by the Depositor, as debtor, naming the Issuer as secured party (and the Trustee as assignee for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and identifying the Conveyed Collateral as collateral for filing with the office of the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware; and execution and delivery of UCC financing statements executed by the Issuer, as debtor, and naming the Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party and identifying the Conveyed Collateral, as collateral for filing with the office of the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware;

(v) a fully executed copy of each Transaction Document; and

(vi) all Opinions of Counsel required to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(iii) of the Indenture.

(b) Concurrently with the transfer of the Initial Conveyed Collateral by the Originator to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer, the (i) the Originator shall transfer to the Collection Account all Principal Proceeds and Interest Proceeds received with respect to such Initial Conveyed Collateral, on and after the Closing Date, (ii) each of the representations and warranties made by the Originator pursuant to Article III applicable to the Initial Conveyed Collateral shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date, and (iii) the Originator shall, at its own expense, not later than the Closing Date, indicate in its records that ownership of the Initial Conveyed Collateral has been conveyed to it by GCMF pursuant to the GCMF Assignment Agreement and then conveyed by it to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.3. Acceptance of Initial Conveyed Collateral

On the Closing Date, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.2, the Issuer hereby instructs the Depositor, and the Depositor hereby instructs the Originator, and the Originator hereby agrees to deliver, on behalf of the Issuer, the Initial Conveyed Collateral to the Trustee, and such delivery to and acceptance by the Trustee shall be deemed to be delivery to and acceptance by the Issuer and by the Depositor.

Section 2.4. Conveyance of Subsequent Conveyed Collateral.

(a) As and when permitted by the Indenture and subject to this Section 2.4 and the satisfaction of the conditions imposed under the Indenture with respect to the acquisition of Subsequent Conveyed Collateral, the Originator may at its option (but shall not be obligated to) sell, convey and transfer to the Depositor (by delivery of an executed Subsequent Transfer Agreement) all the right, title and interest of the Originator in and to the Subsequent Conveyed Collateral identified on Schedule 1 thereto, in each and every case without recourse other than as expressly provided herein and therein and the Depositor shall be required to purchase from the Originator and sell, convey and transfer to the Issuer (by delivery of an executed Subsequent Transfer Agreement) all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Subsequent Conveyed Collateral identified on Schedule 1 thereto, in each and every case without recourse other than as expressly provided herein and therein.

(b) Concurrently with the transfer of any Subsequent Conveyed Collateral by the Originator to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer, (i) the Originator shall transfer to the Collection Account all Principal Proceeds and Interest Proceeds received with respect to such Subsequent Conveyed Collateral, on and after the related Cut-Off Date, (ii) each of the representations and warranties made by the Originator pursuant to Article III applicable to the Subsequent Conveyed Collateral shall be true and correct as of the related Transfer Date and (iii) the Originator shall, at its own expense, on or prior to the applicable date of transfer to the Depositor, indicate in its records that ownership of the Subsequent Conveyed Collateral identified in the Subsequent Transfer Agreement has been sold by the Originator to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.5. Optional Substitution of Collateral Obligations.

(a) Subject to Section 12.3 of the Indenture, this Section 2.5 and the Repurchase and Substitution Limit, with respect to any Collateral Obligation as to which a Substitution Event has occurred, the Originator may (but shall not be obligated to except as required under the Indenture) either (x) convey to the Depositor and cause the Depositor to contemporaneously convey to the Issuer one or more Collateral Obligations in exchange for such Collateral Obligation or (y) deposit into the Principal Collection Subaccount the Transfer Deposit Amount with respect to such Collateral Obligation and then, prior to the expiration of the Substitution Period, convey to the Depositor and cause the Depositor to convey to the Issuer one or more Collateral Obligations in exchange for the funds so deposited or a portion thereof.

(b) Any substitution pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be initiated by delivery of a Notice of Substitution, as set forth in the Indenture, by the Originator to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Issuer and the Collateral Manager that the Originator intends to substitute a Collateral Obligation pursuant to this Section 2.5 and shall be completed prior to the earliest of: (x) the expiration of 90 days after delivery of such notice; (y) delivery of written notice to the Trustee from the Originator stating that the Originator does not intend to convey any additional Substitute Collateral Obligations to the Issuer in exchange for any remaining amounts deposited in the Principal Collection Subaccount under clause (a)(y) above; or (z) in the case of a Collateral Obligation which has become subject to a Specified Amendment, the effective date set forth in such Specified Amendment (such period described in clause (x), (y) or (z), as applicable, being the “Substitution Period”).

(c) Each Notice of Substitution shall specify the Collateral Obligation to be substituted, the reasons for such substitution and the Transfer Deposit Amount with respect to the Collateral Obligation. On the last day of any Substitution Period, any amounts previously deposited in accordance with clause (a)(y) above which relate to such Substitution Period that have not been applied to purchase one or more Substitute Collateral Obligations or to fund the Revolver Funding Account if necessary with respect thereto shall be deemed to constitute Principal Proceeds; provided that prior to the expiration of the related Substitution Period any such amounts shall not be deemed to be Principal Proceeds and shall remain in the Principal Collection Subaccount until applied to acquire Substitute Collateral Obligations or to fund the Revolver Funding Account if necessary with respect thereto. The price paid (or deemed paid, in the case of a contemporaneous conveyance of a Substitute Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(a)(x)) by the Issuer to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Originator, as applicable, for any Substitute Collateral Obligation shall be an amount equal to the value thereof, as determined by the board of directors of the Originator in accordance with the 1940 Act (but in no event less than the fair market value thereof). To the extent any cash or other property received by the Issuer in connection with a Substitute Collateral Obligation exceeds the fair market value thereof, such excess shall be deemed a capital contribution from the Originator to the Depositor and from the Depositor to the Issuer.

(d) The substitution of any Substitute Collateral Obligation will be subject to the satisfaction of the Substitute Collateral Obligations Qualification Conditions as of the related Transfer Date for each such Collateral Obligation (after giving effect to such substitution).

(e) With respect to any Substitute Collateral Obligations to be conveyed to the Depositor by the Originator as described in this Section 2.5, (i) the Originator hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Depositor, without recourse other than as expressly provided herein (and the Depositor shall purchase through cash payment and/or by exchange of one or more related Collateral Obligations released by the Issuer to the Depositor and by the Depositor to the Issuer on the related Cut-Off Date), all the right, title and interest of the Originator in and to the Substitute Collateral Obligation and (ii) the Depositor hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Issuer without recourse other than as expressly provided herein (and the Issuer shall purchase through cash payment and/or by exchange of one or more related Collateral Obligations released by the Issuer to the Depositor on the related Cut-Off Date), all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Substitute Collateral Obligation. To the extent any cash or other property received by the Issuer in connection with a Substitute Collateral Obligation exceeds the fair market value thereof, such excess shall be deemed a capital contribution from the Originator to the Depositor and from the Depositor to the Issuer.

(f) The Originator and Depositor shall execute and deliver to the Issuer and the Trustee a Subsequent Transfer Agreement with respect to each Substitute Collateral Obligation and shall cooperate with the Collateral Manager and the Issuer so that they may satisfy their respective obligations with respect to any substitution of Collateral Obligations pursuant to the Indenture.

(g) The Originator shall bear all transaction costs incurred in connection with a substitution of Collateral Obligations effected pursuant to this Agreement and the Indenture.

Section 2.6. Direct Assignments.

The Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer acknowledge and agree that, solely for administrative convenience, any transfer document or assignment agreement (or, in the case of any Underlying Note, any chain of endorsement) required to be executed and delivered in connection with the transfer of a Collateral Obligation in accordance with the terms of related Underlying Documents may reflect that (i) the Originator (or GCMF or any third party from whom the Originator, the Depositor or the Issuer may purchase a Collateral Obligation) is assigning such Collateral Obligation directly to the Issuer or (ii) the Issuer is acquiring such Collateral Obligation at the closing of such Collateral Obligation. Nothing in any such transfer document or assignment agreement (or, in the case of any Underlying Note, nothing in such chain of endorsement) shall be deemed to impair the transfers of the Collateral Obligations by the Originator to the Depositor and the Depositor to the Issuer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.7. Delivery of Documents.

With respect to each Collateral Obligation transferred hereunder as part of the Conveyed Collateral, within five Business Days after the related Transfer Date (or on or prior to the Closing Date, with respect to the Initial Collateral Obligations), the Originator, on behalf of the Depositor and the Issuer, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian, to the extent not previously delivered, each of the Required Loan Documents with respect to such Collateral Obligations.

ARTICLE III

(b) Authorization; Valid Sale; Binding Obligations.

This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Originator is a party constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Originator enforceable in accordance with their terms, except as enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity, whether considered in a suit at law or in equity.

(c) No Consent Required. No consent of any other Person and no license, permit, order, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority or court or any other Person is required to be obtained by the Originator in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party or the obligations imposed on the Originator hereunder or under the terms of the Indenture or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party other than those that have been obtained or made.

(d) No Violations. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will not violate its articles of incorporation or bylaws or any material requirement of law applicable to the Originator, or constitute a material breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which the Originator is a party or by which the Originator or any of the Originator’s properties may be bound, or result in the creation or imposition of any security interest, lien, charge, pledge or encumbrance of any kind upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement, other than as contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(e) Litigation. No litigation or administrative proceeding of or before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending, or to the knowledge of the Originator threatened, against the Originator or any of its properties or with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or the Notes (1) that, if adversely determined, would in the reasonable judgment of the Originator be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i) the business, properties, assets or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Originator or (ii) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which the Originator is a party or (2) seeking to adversely affect the federal income tax or other federal, state or local tax attributes of the Notes.

(f) Solvency. The Originator, at the time of and after giving effect to each conveyance of Conveyed Collateral hereunder, is solvent and is not aware of any pending insolvency.

(g) Taxes. The Originator has filed or caused to be filed all tax returns which, to its knowledge, are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any governmental authority (other than any amount of tax due, the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been provided on its books); no tax lien has been filed and, to the Originator’s knowledge, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

(j) Security Interest.

(i) in the event that the transfer by the Originator to the Depositor of any Conveyed Collateral is determined not to be an absolute transfer, this Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Depositor a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the UCC) in all of the right, title and interest of the Originator in, to and under such Conveyed Collateral, which security interest is perfected and is prior to all other liens (other than Permitted Liens), and is enforceable as such against, all creditors of and purchasers from the Originator;

(ii) each Collateral Obligation transferred hereunder constitutes or is evidenced by a Financial Asset, an Instrument, a Certificated Security or a general intangible (as defined in the UCC);

(iii) the Originator owns the Conveyed Collateral being conveyed hereunder, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person (other than Permitted Liens), and, upon the transfer by the Originator to the Depositor of any Conveyed Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or any Subsequent Transfer Agreement, the Depositor will own such Conveyed Collateral free and clear of any and all liens, claims or encumbrances created by, or attaching to property of, the Originator (other than Permitted Liens);

(viii) none of the Underlying Notes that constitute or evidence the Conveyed Collateral has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Issuer or in blank or to the Trustee.

(k) Value Given. The cash payments and corresponding increase in the Originator’s equity interest in the Depositor received by the Originator in respect of the purchase price of all Conveyed Collateral conveyed hereunder constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration for the transfer to the Depositor of such Conveyed Collateral under this Agreement, such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Depositor to the Originator, and such transfer was not and is not voidable or subject to avoidance under any Insolvency Law.

(l) No Defaults.

The Depositor makes the following covenants, on which the Originator and the Issuer will rely in connection with the conveyance of Initial Conveyed Collateral on the Closing Date (and any Subsequent Conveyed Collateral on any applicable Transfer Date) to the Depositor and the Issuer, and on which the Depositor acknowledges and agrees the Issuer and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall be entitled to rely as an express third party beneficiary as a condition of the Issuer and the Trustee entering into the Transaction Documents to which each of them is a party and as a condition to the Noteholders purchasing the Notes. Each of the Originator and the Issuer acknowledges that such covenants are being made by the Depositor for the benefit of the Originator, the Issuer and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(a) Legal Existence. During the term of this Agreement, the Depositor will keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited liability company under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and each other instrument or agreement necessary or appropriate to the proper administration of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, all transactions and dealings between (i) the Depositor and the Originator, and (ii) the Depositor and the Issuer will be conducted on an arm’s length basis.

(b) Collateral Obligations Not to Be Evidenced by Promissory Notes. The Depositor will take no action, nor permit any action to be taken, to cause any Collateral Obligation not originally evidenced by a promissory note to be evidenced by an Instrument, except in connection with the enforcement or collection of such Collateral Obligation. In the event that any Collateral Obligation not originally evidenced by a promissory note is evidenced by an Instrument, the Depositor shall deliver such Instrument to the Custodian.

(c) Security Interests. Except as expressly provided herein, the Depositor will not sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any lien on any Conveyed Collateral. The Depositor will promptly notify the Originator, the Issuer and the Trustee of the existence of any lien on any Conveyed Collateral; and the Depositor shall defend the respective right, title and interest of the Issuer in, to and under the Conveyed Collateral against all claims of third parties; provided that nothing in this Section 5.2(c) shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit the Grant of the Conveyed Collateral to the Trustee under the Indenture. The Depositor shall promptly take all actions required (including, but not limited to, all filings and other acts necessary or advisable under the UCC of each relevant jurisdiction) in order to continue (subject to any Permitted Lien) the first priority perfected security interest of the Issuer in all Conveyed Collateral which has not been released pursuant to the Indenture.

(d) Compliance with Law. The Depositor hereby agrees to comply in all material respects with all requirements of law applicable to it except where the failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on the Issuer.

(e) Location. The Depositor shall not move its jurisdiction of formation outside of the State of Delaware without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee.

(f) Merger or Consolidation; Sales. The Depositor shall not enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation, or liquidate or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution) or acquire or be acquired by any Person, or convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or business other than to the Issuer in accordance with the Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION BY THE ORIGINATOR

Section 6.1. Indemnification.

The Originator agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustee and any of their respective managers, members, officers, directors, employees and agents (any one of which is an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other reasonable costs, fees and expenses (provided that any indemnification for damages is limited to actual damages, not consequential, special or punitive damages) that such Person may sustain as a result of the failure of the Originator to perform its duties in compliance in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement, except to the extent arising from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud by the Person claiming indemnification; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of the Originator set forth in Section 7.2 shall constitute the sole recourse to the Originator for any breach of the representations or warranties set forth in Section 3.2. An Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Originator if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, and the Originator shall assume (with the consent of the Indemnified Party) the defense and any settlement of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim. If the consent of the Indemnified Party required in the immediately preceding sentence is unreasonably withheld with respect to any claim, the Originator shall be relieved of its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such claim. The parties agree that the provisions of this Section 6.1 shall not be interpreted to provide recourse to the Originator against loss by reason of the bankruptcy, insolvency or lack of creditworthiness of an Obligor with respect to a Collateral Obligation. The Originator shall have no liability for making indemnification hereunder to the extent any such indemnification constitutes recourse for uncollectible or uncollected amounts payable under any Collateral Obligation.

Section 6.2. Liabilities to Obligors.

Except with respect to the funding commitment assumed by the Issuer with respect to any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation or Revolving Collateral Obligation, the Originator hereby acknowledges and agrees that no obligation or liability of the Originator to any Obligor under any of the Collateral Obligations is intended to be assumed by the Depositor, the Issuer, the Trustee or the Noteholders under or as a result of this Agreement, any Subsequent Transfer Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and under the other Transaction Documents, and the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties is expressly named as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement for purposes of this Section 6.2.

Section 6.3. Operation of Indemnities.

If the Originator has made any indemnity payments to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VI and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will repay such amounts collected to the Originator.

Section 6.4. Limitation on Liability.

The Originator shall be liable under this Agreement only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Originator under this Agreement. The Originator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Originator may rely in good faith on any document of any kind, prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Originator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Originator shall be reimbursed by the Depositor or by the Issuer (subject to the availability of funds in accordance with the Priority of Payments), as applicable, for any liability or expense incurred by reason of the Depositor’s or the Issuer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (except errors in judgment) in the performance of its respective duties hereunder, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder. The Originator shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that shall not be incidental to its obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability.

ARTICLE VII

OPTIONAL AND MANDATORY REPURCHASES

Section 7.1. Optional Repurchases.

In addition to the right to substitute for any Collateral Obligations that become subject to a Substitution Event, the Originator shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase from the Issuer any such Collateral Obligation subject to the Repurchase and Substitution Limit and the conditions set forth in the Indenture. In the event of such a repurchase, the Originator shall deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount for such Collateral Obligation (or applicable portion thereof) as of the date of such repurchase. The Originator, the Depositor and the Issuer shall execute and deliver such instruments, consents or other documents and perform all acts reasonably requested by the Originator and the Collateral Manager in order to effect the transfer and release of any of the Issuer’s interests in the Collateral Obligations (together with the Assets related thereto) that are being repurchased and the release thereof from the lien of the Indenture.

Section 7.2. Mandatory Repurchases.

Upon discovery by a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Manager or the Trustee of (i) a breach of the representation set forth in Section 3.2 which materially and adversely affects the value of the Collateral Obligations or the interest of the Noteholders or which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders in the related Collateral Obligation in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Collateral Obligation or (ii) the failure of any Closing Date Participation Interest to be converted to a full assignment within 60 days following the Closing Date (each such Collateral Obligation, an “Ineligible Collateral Obligation”), the party discovering such breach or failure shall give prompt written notice to the other parties hereunder and the parties to the Indenture. Within 30 days of the earlier of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach or any failure of a Closing Date Participation Interest to be converted to a full assignment, the Originator shall (a) promptly cure such breach in all material respects, (b) purchase the Collateral Obligation by depositing in the Collection Account, within such 30-day period, an amount equal to the Transfer Deposit Amount of such Collateral Obligation or (c) remove such Collateral Obligation from the Issuer and substitute therefor one or more Substitute Collateral Obligations satisfying the criteria listed under Section 2.5 of this Agreement and Section 12.3 of the Indenture by not later than 30 days after notice or discovery of such breach. Such repurchase and substitution obligations constitute the sole remedy available for a breach of Section 3.2 or the failure to convert a Closing Date Participation Interest to a full assignment within 60 days following the Closing Date.

Section 7.3. Reassignment of Substituted or Repurchased Collateral Obligations.

Upon (i) receipt by the Trustee for deposit in the Collection Account of the Transfer Deposit Amount, in the case of any repurchased Collateral Obligation or (ii) or upon the Cut-Off Date related to a Substitute Collateral Obligation described in Section 2.5, the Issuer hereby assigns to the Depositor and the Depositor hereby assigns to the Originator all of the Issuer’s (or Depositor’s, as applicable) right, title and interest in the Collateral Obligation being repurchased or substituted (together with the Assets related thereto) without recourse, representation or warranty. Such reassigned Collateral Obligation (together with the Assets related thereto) shall no longer thereafter be deemed a part of the Assets.

Section 7.4. Substitution and Repurchase Limitations.

At all times, (i) the aggregate principal balance of all Collateral Obligations that are Substitute Collateral Obligations (excluding substitutions occurring as a result of a Substitution Event pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof) plus (ii) the aggregate Principal Balance related to all Collateral Obligations that have been repurchased by the Originator hereunder pursuant to its right of optional repurchase or substitution (other than a substitution occurring as a result of a Substitution Event pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof) and not subsequently applied to purchase a Substitute Collateral Obligation may not exceed an amount equal to 15% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance; provided that clause (ii) above shall not include (A) the principal balance related to any Collateral Obligation that is repurchased by the Originator in connection with a proposed Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation so long as (x) the Originator certifies to the Collateral Manager and the Trustee that such purchase is, in the commercially reasonable business judgment of the Originator, necessary or advisable in connection with the restructuring of such Collateral Obligation and such restructuring is expected to result in a Specified Amendment to such Collateral Obligation, and (y) the Collateral Manager certifies to the Trustee that the Collateral Manager either would not be permitted to or would not elect to enter into such Specified Amendment pursuant to the Collateral Manager Standard or any provision of the Indenture or the Collateral Management Agreement or (B) the purchase price of any Collateral Obligations or, for the avoidance of doubt, any Equity Securities sold by the Issuer to the Originator as described in Section 12.1 of the Indenture. The foregoing provisions in this paragraph constitute the “Repurchase and Substitution Limit”.
