ARTICLE 4

MARGIN MAINTENANCE

(a)Purchaser may, at its option in its sole and absolute discretion, re-determine the Market Value for any Purchased Asset in accordance with the definition of Market Value. If there exists a Margin Deficit with respect to any Purchased Asset, Purchaser may, by notice to

Seller substantially in the form of Exhibit VIII hereto (a “Margin Call”), require Seller to make a cash payment in reduction of the Repurchase Price of such Purchased Asset, so that after giving effect to such payment, no Margin Deficit shall exist with respect to such Purchased Asset. Seller shall have the opportunity to challenge the reduction of the Market Value of any Purchased Asset by requesting that Purchaser, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, order (i) if such reduction in Market Value is related to a reduction in the value of the related Mortgaged Property, a third-party appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property or Mortgaged Properties or (ii) if such reduction is otherwise related to a reduction in the value of the Purchased Asset, a third-party valuation of the fair market value of the Purchased Asset. In the interim period while Purchaser is awaiting receipt of and considering such appraisal or valuation, Seller shall post with Purchaser the Margin Amount. In the event that Purchaser subsequently determines that a Credit Event has not occurred or that a Margin Deficit does not exist, the Margin Amount shall be returned to Seller (or such portion thereof as reflects the decrease in the applicable Margin Deficit).

(b)If a Margin Call is given by Purchaser on any Business Day at or prior to 12 p.m. (New York City time), Seller shall (at Seller’s election) utilize one of any combination of the following by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the immediately following Business Day (the “Margin Deadline”) (for the avoidance of doubt if a Margin Call is given by Purchaser under Article 4(a) on any Business Day after the time set forth above, such Margin Call shall be considered given prior to such time on the immediately following Business Day), so that after giving effect to such transfer, payment or repurchase, no Margin Deficit shall be outstanding: (A) transfer to Purchaser cash collateral or a letter of credit issued by an institution approved by the Purchaser and in form and substance acceptable to Purchaser in its sole discretion in an amount equal to the Margin Deficit, (B) repurchase one of more Purchased Assets pursuant to Article 3(d), or (C) transfer to Purchaser cash in an amount equal to so much of the Margin Deficit as Seller is able to fund through Unrestricted Cash as of the Margin Deadline. If Seller exercises the option described in Article 4(b)(C), and the required cash payment to Purchaser exceeds the Unrestricted Cash available to the Seller to make such payment by the Margin Deadline, then so long as Seller or Guarantor delivers a written certification to the Purchaser on such date of the Margin Call providing evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser in its reasonable good faith discretion that Seller has access to cash, whether through a capital call by the Guarantor to its limited partners, a sale of assets, a draw on a subscription or similar facility, or otherwise, in an amount equal to satisfy the Margin Deficit in full within three (3) Business Days following the related Margin Deadline, then no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third (3rd) Business Day following the related Margin Deadline, Seller shall transfer to Purchaser cash in an amount equal to the remaining outstanding Margin Deficit, if any; provided, however, that (i) until such Margin Deficit has been satisfied in full, Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing within one (1) Business Day in the event that Guarantor receives notice of a margin call (or similar exercise of remedies) with respect to any other credit facility for which Guarantor is a guarantor and (ii) to the extent that Seller or Guarantor, as applicable, apply any amounts designated as Unrestricted Cash for the satisfaction of any margin call deficit made after the related Margin Deadline in respect of any other credit facility of Seller or Guarantor, as applicable(or similar exercise of remedies), the remaining outstanding Margin Deficit shall become immediately due and payable to Purchaser. To the

extent the Guarantor makes a capital call in order to satisfy the Margin Deficit, the failure of the limited partners of Guarantor to honor any capital call by Guarantor within the time set forth herein, and to the extent the related Margin Call is not otherwise satisfied by Seller, shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.

(c) The failure or delay by Purchaser, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights under this Article 4 shall not change or alter the terms and conditions or limit or waive the right of Purchaser to do so at a later date or in any way create additional rights for Seller.

ARTICLE 5

PAYMENTS; COLLECTION ACCOUNT

(b)All payments required to be made directly to Purchaser shall be made in accordance with the wiring instructions set forth below (or such other wire instructions provided by Purchaser to Seller in writing), not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time)(or such other time set forth herein with respect to such payment), on the date on which such payment shall become due (and each such payment made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

Amounts in the Collection Account shall be remitted by Account Bank in accordance with the provisions of Articles 5(e) and 5(f).

(e)So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Account Bank shall remit all amounts in the Collection Account to, or at the direction of, Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Income is applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of any Purchased Asset, Seller shall be required to pay (and shall not permit Account Bank to remit such amount from the Collection Account to Seller or any other Person (other than Purchaser), and shall cause Account Bank to promptly remit such amount to Purchaser) the entire amount that was applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of such Purchased Asset toward the Repurchase Price for application in reduction of the outstanding Purchase Price of such Purchased Asset an amount equal to the product of (x) any Principal Payment on account of such Purchased Asset multiplied by (y) the Purchase Price Percentage for such Purchased Asset until the Repurchase Price thereof is paid in full.

(f)Upon receipt of notice from Purchaser that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and so long as Purchaser has not withdrawn such notice, Account Bank shall cease remitting funds to, or at the direction of, Seller pursuant to Article 5(e) and shall instead remit, on each Business Day beginning on the Business Day after receipt of such notice from Purchaser, all amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as of the prior Business Day to Purchaser for application to the Repurchase Obligations in such order of priority as Purchaser shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion; provided, that if Purchaser has not exercised the remedies described in Article 14(b)(ii)(D)(2) with respect to any or all Purchased Assets, then the excess, if any, of such amounts over the amount of the Repurchase Obligations then outstanding under the Transaction Documents shall be remitted to Seller.

(g)On each Remittance Date, Seller shall pay to Purchaser all accrued and unpaid Purchase Price Differential as of such Remittance Date.

(h)Any amounts paid toward the Repurchase Price for any Purchased Asset shall be applied by Purchaser to any items constituting the Repurchase Price thereof in such order of priority as Purchaser shall determine in its reasonable discretion.

ARTICLE 6

REQUIREMENTS OF LAW; ALTERNATIVE RATEBENCMARK REPLACEMENT

(a)Requirements of Law. (i)Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for Purchaser (A) to enter into Transactions as contemplated by the Transaction Documents, then any commitment of Purchaser hereunder to enter into any Transaction shall forthwith be canceled, (B) to maintain or continue any Transaction and Purchaser does not have any means of complying with Requirements of Law other than to terminate such Transaction after exercising commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such Requirements of Law without having to terminate such Transaction, then a Repurchase Date for such Transaction shall occur on the later to occur of (x) the date that is five (5) Business Days after delivery of written notice thereof from Purchaser to Seller and (y) the next Remittance Date or on such earlier date as may be required by law or (C) to accrue Purchase Price Differential based on the Applicable Indexthen-applicable Benchmark for any Transaction, then each such Transaction then outstanding shall be converted automatically to a Prime Rate Transactionnew Benchmark pursuant to the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” and Article 6(b) on the next Pricing Rate Determination Date or within such earlier period as may be required by law.

exercise of its commercially reasonable business judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller absent manifest error) that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Applicable Index for such Pricing Rate Period, (ii) the Applicable Index is likely to, or has, become unavailable or become an inappropriate index for the calculation of floating rates on loans, (iii) the Applicable Index determined or to be determined for such Pricing Rate Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Purchaser (as determined and certified by Purchaser) of making or maintaining Transactions during such Pricing Rate Period or (iv) the Applicable Index is no longer the industry standard floating rate index, Purchaser shall give notice thereof to Seller as soon as practicable thereafter; provided, that Purchaser shall exercise its rights under this Article 6(b) in a manner which is consistent with other similar agreements with other similarly situated counterparties covered by the same group within Purchaser. Such notice, if given, shall set forth the affected Transactions, the floating rate index selected by Purchaser that Purchaser intends to use as an alternative to the Applicable Index for Seller and similarly situated counterparties covered by the same group within Purchaser (the “Alternative Rate”).

For the avoidance of doubt, any notice required to be delivered by Purchaser as set forth in this paragraph may be provided, at the option of Purchaser (in its sole and absolute discretion), in one or more notices and may be delivered together with, or as part of any amendment which implements any Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Purchaser pursuant to this Article 6(b), including any determination

with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Article 6(b).

ARTICLE 7

SECURITY INTEREST

(a)Purchaser and Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Purchaser of the Purchased Assets and not loans from Purchaser to Seller secured by the Purchased Assets (other than for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise Tax purposes more fully described in Article 23(g)). However, in order to preserve Purchaser’s rights under the Transaction Documents, in the event that, other than for such Tax purposes, a court or other forum re-characterizes the Transactions hereunder as other than sales, and as security for the performance by Seller of all of Seller’s obligations to Purchaser under the Transaction Documents and the Transactions entered into hereunder, or in the event that a transfer of a Purchased Asset is otherwise ineffective to effect an outright transfer of such Purchased Asset to Purchaser, Seller hereby assigns, pledges and grants a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever located, to Purchaser to secure the payment of the Repurchase Price on all Transactions to which it is a party and all other amounts owing by it to Purchaser hereunder, including, without limitation, amounts owing pursuant to Article 27, and under the other Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Repurchase Obligations”). Xxxxxx agrees to mark its books and records to evidence the interests granted to Purchaser hereunder. Without

limiting the generality of the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, if any determination is made that any Mezzanine Loan which is a Purchased Asset was not sold by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, or that such Mezzanine Loan does not qualify for the safe harbor treatment provided by the Bankruptcy Code, then Seller hereby pledges, assigns and grants to Purchaser as further security for Seller’s obligations to Purchaser hereunder, a continuing first priority security interest in and Lien upon each such Mezzanine Loan which constitutes a Purchased Asset hereunder, and Purchaser shall have all the rights and remedies of a “secured party” under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect thereto (such pledge, the “Related Credit Enhancement”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Collateral” shall mean:

(i)the Collection Account and all monies from time to time on deposit in the Collection Account and any and all replacements, substitutions, distributions on, income relating to or proceeds of any and all of the foregoing; and

(ii)the Purchased Items.

(b)Purchaser’s security interest in the Collateral shall terminate only upon satisfaction of the Repurchase Obligations (other than obligations under the Transaction Documents (including contingent reimbursement obligations and indemnity obligations) which, by their express terms, survive termination of this Agreement or such other Transaction Document, as the case may be), provided that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (other than in connection with a repayment of a Purchased Asset by the Borrower thereunder and subject to the conditions set forth in Article 3(e)), Purchaser’s security interest with respect to any Purchased Asset shall terminate automatically effective upon the repurchase thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and receipt by Purchaser of the Repurchase Price therefor. Upon such satisfaction and, in the case of the clause (i) below, upon request by Seller, Purchaser shall, at Seller’s sole expense, (i) deliver to Seller such UCC termination statements and other release documents as may be commercially reasonable and (ii) return (or authorize the return by Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, as applicable) the Purchased Assets to Seller and reconvey the Purchased Items to Seller and release its security interest in the Collateral, such release to be effective automatically without further action by any party. For purposes of the grant of the security interest pursuant to this Article 7, this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). Purchaser shall have all of the rights and may exercise all of the remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and the other laws of the State of New York. In furtherance of the foregoing, (i) Purchaser, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, as applicable, shall cause to be filed in such locations as may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby, UCC financing statements and continuation statements (collectively, the “Filings”), and shall forward copies of such Filings to Seller upon completion thereof, and (ii) Seller shall from time to time take such further actions as may be requested by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion to maintain and continue the perfection and priority of the security interest granted hereby (including marking its records and files to evidence the interests granted to Purchaser hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Repurchase Obligations shall be full recourse to Seller.

(c)Seller acknowledges that it has no rights to service the Purchased Assets but only has rights granted to it pursuant to Article 29. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing

and the grant of a security interest in Article 7(a), and in the event that Seller is deemed by a court, other forum or otherwise to retain any residual Servicing Rights (notwithstanding that such Servicing Rights are Purchased Items hereunder), and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Servicing Rights constitute Collateral hereunder for all purposes. The foregoing provision is intended to constitute a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement related to the Agreement and Transactions hereunder as defined under Sections 101(47)(v) and 741(7)(x) of the Bankruptcy Code.

(d)Seller agrees, to the extent permitted by any Requirement of Law, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Purchased Asset or Mortgaged Property may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Purchased Assets, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Seller, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives until the Repurchase Obligations are paid in full, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Purchased Assets marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Purchaser or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell the Purchased Assets as an entirety or in such parcels as Purchaser or such court may determine.

ARTICLE 8

TRANSFER AND CUSTODY

(a)On the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the related Purchased Assets and other Purchased Items shall be transferred to Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian and/or the Bailee) against the simultaneous transfer of the Purchase Price for such Purchased Asset in immediately available funds to an account of Seller specified in the Confirmation and such Eligible Asset shall become a Purchased Asset hereunder, with a simultaneous agreement by Purchaser to transfer to Seller the same Purchased Asset on the applicable Repurchase Date, against the transfer of funds by Seller, in an amount equal to the Repurchase Price.

(b)Seller shall deposit the Purchased Asset Files representing the Purchased Assets, or direct that the Purchased Asset Files be deposited directly, with the Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement. The Purchased Asset Files shall be maintained in accordance with the Custodial Agreement. If a Purchased Asset File is not delivered to Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian), such Purchased Asset File shall be held in trust by Seller or its designee for the benefit of Purchaser as the owner thereof. Seller or its designee shall maintain a copy of the Purchased Asset File and the originals of the Purchased Asset File not delivered to Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian). The possession of the Purchased Asset File by Seller or its designee is at the will of Purchaser for the sole purpose of servicing the related Purchased Asset, and such retention and possession by Seller or its designee is in a custodial capacity only. The books and records (including, without limitation, any computer records or tapes) of Seller or its designee shall be marked appropriately to reflect

clearly the sale of the related Purchased Asset to Purchaser. Seller or its designee (including the Custodian) shall release its custody of the Purchased Asset File only in accordance with a written request acknowledged in writing by Purchaser and otherwise in accordance with the Custodial Agreement.

(c)From time to time, Seller shall forward to the Custodian, with copy to Purchaser, additional original documents or additional documents evidencing any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of a Purchased Asset approved in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and upon receipt of any such other documents (which shall be clearly marked as to which Purchased Asset File such documents relate), Custodian will be required to hold such other documents in the related Purchased Asset File in accordance with the Custodial Agreement.

(x)Good Title to Purchased Asset. Immediately prior to the purchase of any Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items by Purchaser from Seller, (i) such Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items are free and clear of any Lien or impediment to transfer (including any “adverse claim” as defined in Article 8-102(a)(1) of the UCC) (other than any such Lien or impediment to transfer that is released simultaneously with such purchase), (ii) such Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items are not subject to any right of set-off, any prior sale, transfer or assignment, or any agreement by Seller to assign, convey or transfer such Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items, in each case, in whole or in part, (iii) Seller is the record and beneficial owner of, and had good and marketable title to, and the right to sell and transfer, such Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items to Purchaser, and (iv) Seller has the right to sell and transfer such Purchased Asset and other Purchased Items to Purchaser.

(z)Security Interest Matters.

(i)The provisions of the Transaction Documents are effective to either (x) constitute a sale of Purchased Items to Purchaser (other than for United States federal, state and local income or franchise tax purposes) or (y) create in favor of Purchaser a legal, valid and enforceable first priority “security interest” (as defined in Section 1-201(b)(35) of the UCC) in all rights, title and interest of Seller in, to and under the Collateral.

(ii)Upon possession by the Custodian or Bailee pursuant to a Bailee Letter of each Promissory Note or Participation Certificate, endorsed in blank by a duly authorized officer of Seller, Purchaser shall have a legal, valid, enforceable and fully perfected first priority security interest in all right, title and interest of Seller in such Promissory Note or Participation Certificate, as applicable.

(iii)Upon the filing of the UCC Financing Statements in the applicable UCC Filing Jurisdiction, Purchaser shall have a legal, valid, enforceable and fully perfected first priority security interest in that portion of the Collateral or the Pledged Collateral, as applicable, in which a security interest can be perfected under the UCC by the filing of financing statements.

(aa)Solvency; No Fraudulent Transfer. Seller has adequate capital for the normal obligations reasonably foreseeable in a business of its size and character and in light of its contemplated business operations. Seller is generally able to pay, and is paying, its debts as they come due. Neither the Transaction Documents nor any Transaction are entered into in contemplation of insolvency or with intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of Seller’s creditors. As of each Purchase Date, Seller is not insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. Section 101(32) or any successor provision thereto and the transfer and sale of related Purchased Assets on such Purchase Date pursuant hereto and the obligation to repurchase such Purchased Assets (i) will not cause the liabilities of Seller to exceed the assets of Seller, (ii) will not result in Seller having unreasonably small capital, and (iii) will not result in debts that would be beyond Seller’s ability to pay as the same mature. Seller received reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer and sale of each Purchased Asset and other Purchased Item subject hereto. Seller has only entered into agreements on terms that would be considered arm’s length and otherwise on terms consistent with other similar agreements with other similarly situated entities.

(ab)No Reliance. Seller has made its own independent decisions to enter into the Transaction Documents and each Transaction and as to whether such Transaction is appropriate and proper for it based upon its own judgment and upon advice from such advisors (including without limitation, legal counsel and accountants) as it has deemed necessary. Seller is not relying upon any advice from Purchaser as to any aspect of the Transactions, including without limitation, the legal, accounting or tax treatment of the Transactions.

(ac)Investment Company Act. Seller is not required to register as an “investment company,” and is not a company “controlled by an investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(ad)Taxes. Seller has filed or caused to be filed all required U.S. federal and other material tax returns that to the Knowledge of Seller would be delinquent if they had not been filed on or before the date hereof and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on or before the date hereof 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 and any of its assets by any Governmental Authority except for any such taxes as (i) are being appropriately contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and with respect to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP or (ii) are de minimis in amount; no tax liens have been filed against any of Seller’s assets, to Seller’s Knowledge, and no claims have been asserted in writing with respect to any such taxes, fees or other charges.

(ae)ERISA. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate of Seller sponsors, maintains or contributes to any Plan or any Multiemployer Plan. Seller is not, and is not using any assets of, a “benefit plan investor” as defined in Department of Labor regulation 29 C.F.R Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, in connection with any Transaction.

(af)Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. All proceeds of each Transaction shall be used by Seller for purposes permitted under Seller’s governing documents, provided that no part of the proceeds of any Transaction will be used by Seller to purchase or carry any margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock. Neither the entering into of any Transaction nor the use of any proceeds thereof will violate, or be inconsistent with, any provision of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(ag) No Real Property. Neither Seller nor any Subsidiary of Seller has at any time since its formation held title to any real property.

(ah)Ownership. Seller is and shall remain at all times a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Guarantor.

(ai)Intentionally Omitted.

(aj)Sanctions; No Prohibited Persons. Each Seller Party and each of their respective Affiliates is in compliance with Sanctions. No Seller Party or any Affiliate, officer, director, partner, member or employee, of any Seller Party or of such Affiliate, is an entity or person that is directly, or to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, indirectly, owned, controlled by or acting on behalf of any Person that is, a Prohibited Person. Seller agrees that, from time to time upon the prior written request of Purchaser, it shall execute and deliver such further documents, provide such additional information and reports and perform such other acts as Purchaser may reasonably request in order to ensure compliance with the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, compliance with Sanctions); provided, however, that nothing in this Article 10(jj) shall be construed as requiring Purchaser to conduct any inquiry or decreasing Seller’s responsibility for its statements, representations, warranties or covenants hereunder.

(ak)Anti-Corruption and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Each Seller Party and each of their respective Affiliates has complied with, and is in compliance with, all applicable Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. No part of the proceeds of any Transaction will be used, directly or, to the Knowledge of any Seller Party, indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for

political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws. No litigation, regulatory or administrative proceedings of or before any court, tribunal or agency with respect to any Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws have been started or threatened against any Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof.

(xiii)Governmental or Regulatory Action. Any governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority shall have taken any action to remove, limit, restrict, suspend or terminate the rights, privileges, or operations of any Seller Party, which suspension has a Material Adverse Effect as determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion.

(xvi)Representation or Warranty Breach. If any representation, warranty or certification (other than those contained in Article 10(w) relating to Purchased Assets subject to other Transactions, which shall be considered solely for the purpose of determining the Market Value of the Purchased Assets, unless (i) Seller shall have made any such representations and warranties with actual Knowledge that they were materially false or materially misleading at the time made; or (ii) any such representations and warranties have been determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion to be materially false or materially misleading on a regular basis) made to Purchaser by, or on behalf of, any Seller Party or any Servicer that is an Affiliate of any Seller Party shall have been incorrect or untrue in any respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated, and such representation, warranty or certification breach is not cured within ten (10) days thereafter (to the extent such representation, warranty or certification is curable and was not made with Knowledge that such representation, warranty or certification was incorrect at the time made).

(xvii)Judgment. Any final non-appealable judgment by any competent court in the United States of America for the payment of money is rendered against any Seller Party in an amount at least equal to the applicable Litigation Threshold, and such judgment remains undischarged or unpaid for a period of thirty (30) days, during which period execution of such judgment is not effectively stayed by bonding over or other means acceptable to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion.

(xviii)Guarantor Breach. The breach by Guarantor of the covenants made by it in Article V(i) (Limitation on Distributions) or Article V(k) (Financial Covenants) of the Guaranty.

(xix)Affiliated Servicer Breach. The breach by any Servicer that is an Affiliate of any Seller Party of its obligation to deposit or remit any Income received by such Servicer in accordance with Article 5(d).

(b)Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to Seller, the following rights and remedies shall be available to Purchaser:

(i)At the option of Purchaser, exercised by written notice to Seller (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised, even if no notice is given, immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency with respect to any Seller Party), the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, immediately occur (such date, the “Accelerated Repurchase Date”).

(ii)If Purchaser exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in Article 14(b)(i):

(A)Seller’s obligations hereunder to repurchase all Purchased Assets shall become immediately due and payable on and as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date;

(B)to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Repurchase Price with respect to each Transaction (determined as of the Accelerated Repurchase Date) shall be increased by the aggregate amount obtained by daily application of, on a 360 day per year basis for the actual number of days during the period from and including the Accelerated Repurchase Date to but excluding the date of payment of the Repurchase Price (as so increased), (x) the Pricing Rate for such Transaction multiplied by (y) the Purchase Price for such Transaction (decreased by (I) any amounts actually remitted to Purchaser by the Account Bank or Seller from time to time pursuant to Article 5 and applied to such Repurchase Price, and (II) any amounts applied to the Repurchase Price pursuant to this Article 14(b)(ii));

(C)the Custodian shall, upon the request of Purchaser, deliver to Purchaser all instruments, certificates and other documents then held by the Custodian relating to the Purchased Assets; and

(D)Purchaser may (1) immediately sell, at a public or private sale in a commercially reasonable manner and at such price or prices as Purchaser may deem satisfactory any or all of the Purchased Assets, and/or (2) in its sole and absolute discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets, to give Seller credit for such Purchased Assets in an amount equal to the market value of such Purchased Assets (as determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion) against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price for such Purchased Assets and any other amounts owing by Seller under the Transaction Documents, and in the case of (1), return any excess after application of amounts due to Seller. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Assets effected pursuant to this Article 14(b)(iiiii)(D) shall be applied to the Repurchase Obligations in such order of priority as Purchaser shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion.

(iii)The parties acknowledge and agree that (A) the Purchased Assets subject to any Transaction hereunder are not instruments traded in a recognized market, (B) in the absence of a generally recognized source for prices or bid or offer quotations for any

Purchased Asset, the Purchaser may establish the source therefor in its sole and absolute discretion and (C) all prices, bids and offers shall be determined together with accrued Income (except to the extent contrary to market practice with respect to the relevant Purchased Assets). The parties recognize that it may not be possible to purchase or sell all of the Purchased Assets on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for such Purchased Assets may not be liquid. In view of the nature of the Purchased Assets, the parties agree that liquidation of a Transaction or the Purchased Assets does not require a public purchase or sale and that a good faith private purchase or sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Accordingly, Purchaser may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Purchased Assets, and nothing contained herein shall (A) obligate Purchaser to liquidate any Purchased Assets on the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or to liquidate all of the Purchased Assets in the same manner or on the same Business Day or (B) constitute a waiver of any right or remedy of Purchaser.

(iv)Seller shall be liable to Purchaser and its Affiliates and shall indemnify Purchaser and its Affiliates for the amount (including, without limitation, in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement) of all actual and documented losses, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel) incurred by Purchaser in connection with or as a consequence of an Event of Default.

(v)Purchaser shall have, in addition to its rights and remedies under the Transaction Documents, all of the rights and remedies provided by applicable federal, state, foreign (where relevant), and local laws (including, without limitation, if the Transactions are recharacterized as secured financings, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), in equity, and under any other agreement between Purchaser and Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall be entitled to set off the proceeds of the liquidation of the Purchased Assets against all of Seller’s obligations to Purchaser under this Agreement, without prejudice to Purchaser’s right to recover any deficiency.

(vi)Subject to the applicable notice, grace or cure periods set forth herein, Purchaser may exercise any or all of the remedies available to Purchaser immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time during the continuance thereof. All rights and remedies arising under the Transaction Documents, as amended from time to time, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Purchaser may have.

(vii)Purchaser may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses Seller might otherwise have to require Purchaser to enforce its rights by judicial process. Seller also waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, disposition of any or all of the Purchased Assets, or from any other election of remedies. Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are

consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

(c)Power of Attorney. Seller hereby appoints Purchaser as attorney-in-fact of Seller during the continuance of an Event of Default for the purpose of taking any action and executing or endorsing any instruments that Purchaser may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including the exercise of any remedies hereunder, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.

ARTICLE 15

SET-OFF

(a)After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, Seller hereby grants to Purchaser and its Affiliates a right of set-off, without prior notice to Seller, any sum or obligation (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, whether or not contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the sum or obligation) owed by Seller to Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser against (i) any sum or obligation (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether matured or unmatured, whether or not contingent and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the sum or obligation) owed by Purchaser or its Affiliates to Seller and (ii) any and all deposits (general or specified), monies, credits, securities, collateral or other property of Seller and the proceeds therefrom, now or hereafter held or received for the account of Seller (whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection, or otherwise) by Purchaser or its Affiliates or any entity under the control of Purchaser or its Affiliates and its respective successors and assigns (including, without limitation, branches and agencies of Purchaser, wherever located). Purchaser shall give written notice to Seller of any set-off elected under this Article 15.

(b)Purchaser and its Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to Seller, to set-off, appropriate, apply and enforce such right of set-off against any and all items hereinabove referred to against any amounts owing to Purchaser or its Affiliates by Seller under the Transaction Documents, irrespective of whether Purchaser or its Affiliates shall have made any demand hereunder and although such amounts, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured and regardless of any other collateral securing such amounts. If a sum or obligation is unascertained, Purchaser may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Article 15 shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Article 15 shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, lien or other rights to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).

(c)ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE PURCHASER OR ITS AFFILIATES TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL OR PURCHASED ITEMS THAT SECURE THE AMOUNTS OWING TO PURCHASER OR ITS AFFILIATES BY SELLER UNDER THE TRANSACTION

DOCUMENTS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING THEIR RIGHT OF SET-OFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH MONIES, SECURITIES, COLLATERAL, DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF SELLER, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED BY SELLER.

ARTICLE 16

Accordingly, each of Purchaser and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be entitled to set off claims and apply property held by them in respect of any Transaction against obligations owing to them in respect of any other Transactions hereunder and (iii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

confirmation). A party receiving a notice that does not comply with the technical requirements for notice under this Article 18 may elect to waive any deficiencies and treat the notice as having been properly given.

ARTICLE 19

ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

ARTICLE 20

NON-ASSIGNABILITY

(a)No Seller Party may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which may be granted or withheld in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion) and any attempt by any Seller Party to assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document without the prior written consent of Purchaser shall be null and void.

Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with any such assignment, transfer or sale of participating interest done in accordance with the terms of this Article 20(b) and to enter into such restatements of, and amendments, supplements and other modifications to, the Transaction Documents to which it is a party in order to give effect to such assignment, transfer or sale of participating interest.

purchaser, transferee and assignee, as applicable, and the amounts (and stated interest) owing to, each permitted purchaser, transferee and assignee pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Seller and Purchaser shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Purchaser hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 23

INTENT

(a)The parties intend and acknowledge that (i) each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(47) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of Assets subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), (ii) each Purchased Asset constitutes either a “mortgage loan” or “an interest in a mortgage” as such terms are used in Title 11 of the United States Code and (iii) all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title II of the Bankruptcy Code.

(b)The parties intend and acknowledge that either party’s right to cause the termination, liquidation or acceleration of, or to set-off or net termination values, payment amounts or other transfer obligations arising under, or in connection with, this Agreement or any Transaction hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Article 14 is in each case a contractual right to cause or exercise such right as described in Sections 555, 559 and 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.

(c)The parties intend and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in the FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

(d)The parties intend and acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

(e)The parties intend and acknowledge that this Agreement constitutes a “master netting agreement” as defined in Section 101(38A) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and as used in Section 561 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and a

“securities contract” with the meaning of Section 555 and Section 559 under the Bankruptcy Code.

(f)The parties intend and acknowledge that any provisions hereof or in any other document, agreement or instrument that is related in any way to this Agreement shall be deemed “related to” this Agreement within the meaning of Section 741 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(g)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties that, for U.S. federal, and relevant state and local income and franchise tax purposes and for accounting purposes, each Transaction constitute a financing to Seller, and that Seller be (except to the extent that Purchaser shall have exercised its remedies following an Event of Default) the owner of the Purchased Assets for such purposes. Unless prohibited by applicable law, Seller and Purchaser agree to treat the Transactions as described in the preceding sentence for all U.S. federal, and relevant state, and local income and franchise tax purposes (including, without limitation, on any and all filings with any U.S. federal, state, or local taxing authority) and agree not to take any action inconsistent with such treatment.

(h)Each party hereto hereby further agrees that it shall not challenge the characterization of (i) this Agreement as a “repurchase agreement” (except to the extent the related Transaction has a duration that renders such term inapplicable), “securities contract” and/or “master netting agreement”, (ii) each party as a “repo participant” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code except insofar as, in the case of a “repurchase agreement”, the term of the Transactions, would render such definition inapplicable, or (iii) Purchaser as a “financial institution” or “financial participant” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code.

ARTICLE 24

DISCLOSURE RELATING TO CERTAIN FEDERAL PROTECTIONS

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

(a)in the case of any Transaction in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Exchange Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to such Transaction;

(b)in the case of any Transaction in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to such Transaction; and

(c)in the case of any Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution in connection with such Transaction are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

ARTICLE 25

CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS

(a)Each party irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any United States Federal or New York State court sitting in Manhattan, and any appellate court from any such court, solely for the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement and (ii) waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, any defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and any right of jurisdiction on account of its place of residence or domicile. The parties hereby agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(b)To the extent that either party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, such party hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of any action brought to enforce its obligations under this Agreement or relating in any way to this Agreement or any Transaction under this Agreement.

(c)The parties consent to the service of any summons and complaint and any other process by the mailing of copies of such process to them at their respective address specified herein. Nothing in this Article 25 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law and nothing in this Article 25 shall affect the right of Purchaser to bring any enforcement action or proceeding against any property of Seller located in other jurisdictions in the courts of such other jurisdictions to the extent required by the laws of such other jurisdictions.

(d)EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

(e)EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO CLAIM OR RECOVER FROM THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY INDEMNIFIED PARTY ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL DAMAGES, WHETHER THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES WAS KNOWN AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE CLAIM OF ACTION.

Seller hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants to Purchaser that, in connection with the negotiation of, the entering into, and the performance under, the Transaction Documents and each Transaction thereunder:

(b)it has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial and accounting advisors to the extent that it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging and trading decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of any Transaction) based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such advisors as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by Purchaser;

ARTICLE 27

INDEMNITY AND EXPENSES

(a)Seller hereby agrees to indemnify Purchaser, Purchaser’s Affiliates and each of its and their officers, directors, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) for, and hold harmless from, any and all actual documented out-of-pocket liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses of outside counsel) or disbursements (all of the foregoing, collectively “Indemnified Amounts”) that may at any time (including, without limitation, such time as this Agreement shall no longer be in effect and the Transactions shall have been repaid in full) be imposed on or asserted against any Indemnified Party in any way whatsoever arising out of or in connection with, or relating to, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, any Transactions, any Event of Default or any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Indemnified Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that Seller shall not be liable for Indemnified Amounts resulting from the gross

negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller agrees to hold Purchaser harmless from and indemnify Purchaser against all Indemnified Amounts with respect to all Purchased Assets relating to or arising out of any violation or alleged violation of any environmental law, rule or regulation or any consumer credit laws, including without limitation ERISA, the Truth in Lending Act and/or the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act in each case, which does not result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnified Party. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Purchaser in connection with any Purchased Asset for any sum owing thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Purchased Asset, Seller agrees to hold Purchaser harmless from and indemnify Purchaser from and against all Indemnified Amounts suffered by reason of any defense, set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by any Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such account debtor or obligor or its successors from any Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof. The obligation of Seller hereunder is a recourse obligation of Seller. This Article 27(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b)Seller agrees to pay or reimburse upon written demand all of Purchaser’s actual, documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel) incurred in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution and consummation of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any Transaction Document or any Transaction thereunder, whether or not such Transaction Document (or amendment thereto) or such Transaction is ultimately consummated, (ii) the consummation and administration of any Transaction, (iii) any enforcement of any of the provisions of the Transaction Documents, any preservation of the Purchaser’s rights under the Transaction Documents or any performance by Purchaser of any obligations of Seller in respect of any Purchased Asset, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral and the Pledged Collateral and for the custody, care or preservation of the Collateral and the Pledged Collateral (including insurance, filing and recording costs) and defending or asserting rights and claims of Purchaser in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, (iv) the maintenance of the Collection Account and registering the Collateral and the Pledged Collateral in the name of Purchaser or its nominee, (v) any default by Seller in repurchasing the Purchased Asset after Seller has given a notice in accordance with Article 3(e) of an Early Repurchase Date, (vi) any Breakage Costs incurred by Purchaser in connection with the Purchased Assets, (vii) any failure by Seller to sell any Eligible Asset to Purchaser on the Purchase Date thereof, (viii) any actions taken to perfect or continue any lien created under any Transaction Document, (ix) Purchaser owning any Purchased Asset or other Purchased Item and/or (x) any due diligence performed by Purchaser in accordance with Article 28. All such expenses shall be recourse obligations of Seller to Purchaser under this Agreement. A certificate as to such costs and expenses, setting forth the calculations thereof shall be conclusive and binding upon Seller absent manifest error.

(c)This Article 27 shall survive termination of this Agreement and the repurchase of all Purchased Assets.

ARTICLE 28

DUE DILIGENCE

(a)Seller acknowledges that Purchaser, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice to Seller, Purchaser has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Assets (including obtaining updated or new appraisals not to exceed one appraisal per twelve (12) consecutive month period for any Mortgaged Property so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing); provided that, unless an appraisal is requested by the Seller, any such appraisal ordered by the Purchaser while no Event of Default is continuing shall be at the Purchaser’s expense, the Seller Parties and Servicer for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, or otherwise. Seller agrees that upon reasonable prior notice (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no prior notice shall be required), Seller shall provide (or shall cause any other Seller Party or Servicer, as applicable, to provide) reasonable access to Purchaser and any of its agents, representatives or permitted assigns to the offices of Seller, such other Seller Party or Servicer, as the case may be, during normal business hours and permit them to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of the Purchased Asset Files, Servicing Records and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession or under the control of such party.

(b)Seller agrees that it shall, promptly upon reasonable request of Purchaser, deliver (or shall cause to be delivered) to Purchaser and any of its agents, representatives or permitted assigns copies of any documents permitted to be reviewed by Purchaser in accordance with Article 28(a).

(c)Seller agrees to make available (or to cause any other Seller Party or Servicer, as applicable, to make available) to Purchaser and any of its agents, representatives or permitted assigns (i) in person at the time of any inspection pursuant to Article 28(a) or (ii) upon prior written notice (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no prior notice shall be required and there shall be no limitation on frequency), by phone, as applicable, a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer or asset manager, as applicable, of Seller, such other Seller Party or Servicer, as the case may be, for the purpose of answering questions about any of the foregoing Persons, or any other matters relating to the Transaction Documents or any Transaction that Purchaser wishes to discuss with such Person.

(d)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Purchaser may enter into Transactions with Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Purchaser and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Purchaser, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Purchased Assets. Purchaser may underwrite such Purchased Assets itself or engage a third-party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Xxxxxxxxx and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Purchaser and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Purchased Assets in the possession, or under the control, of any Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof.

(e)Seller agrees to reimburse Purchaser on demand for any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of outside counsel) incurred by Purchaser in connection with its due diligence activities pursuant to this Article 28.

ARTICLE 29

SERVICING

(a)The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the Purchased Assets are sold to Purchaser on a “servicing released” basis and Purchaser is owner of all Servicing Rights so long as the Purchased Assets are subject to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, while no Event of Default exists, Seller shall be granted a revocable license (which license shall automatically be revoked (i) every thirty (30) days unless Purchaser provides written notice to Seller that such license is extended for another thirty (30) days or (ii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default; provided, however, that if Purchaser fails to deliver any such notice of extension, then upon notice from Seller of such failure, Purchaser shall provide notice to Seller and Servicer of Purchaser’s election to extend such thirty (30) day period or not extend such thirty (30) day period and, if such notice of election to extend is provided by Purchaser after the expiration of the immediately preceding thirty (30) day period, such extension shall apply retroactively for the period beginning on the last day of such preceding thirty (30) day period through and including the date such notice of election to extend is provided by Purchaser) to cause Servicer to service the Purchased Assets, and Seller shall, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, cause the Servicer to service the Purchased Assets in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and this Article 29 and for the benefit of Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not take any action or effect any Significant Modification without first having given prior notice thereof to Purchaser in each such instance and receiving the prior written consent of Purchaser. If Seller effects any Significant Modification with respect to any Purchased Asset without prior written consent of Purchaser then Seller shall repurchase such Purchased Asset within five (5) Business Days after written demand from Purchaser (unless Purchaser later elects to approve such Significant Modification or waive such right to demand repurchase, in each case in Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion).

(b)The obligation of Servicer (or Seller to cause Servicer) to service any of the Purchased Assets shall cease, at Purchaser’s option, upon the earliest of (i) Purchaser’s termination of Servicer in accordance with Article 29(c), (ii) Purchaser not extending Seller’s revocable license in accordance with Article 29(a) or (iii) the transfer of servicing to any other Servicer and the assumption of such servicing by such other Servicer. Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with any termination of Servicer. Upon any termination of Servicer, if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Seller shall at its sole cost and expense transfer the servicing of the effected Purchased Assets to another Servicer designated by Purchaser as expeditiously as possible.

(c)Purchaser may, in its sole and absolute discretion, terminate Servicer or any sub-servicer with respect to any Purchased Asset (i) upon the occurrence of a default by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, (ii) upon the occurrence of a default by the Servicer under the Servicer Letter or (iii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, either for cause or without cause, in each case of clauses (i) through (iii), without payment of any penalty or termination fee.

(d)Seller shall not, and shall not permit Servicer to, employ any other sub-servicers to service the Purchased Assets without the prior written approval of Purchaser. If the Purchased Assets are serviced by a sub-servicer, Seller shall irrevocably assign all rights, title and interest in the servicing agreements with such sub-servicer to Purchaser, provided that Servicer may delegate certain administrative functions to third parties without Purchaser’s consent provided that Servicer at all times remains liable for such functions.

(e)Seller shall cause Servicer and any sub-servicer to service the Purchased Assets in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Seller shall cause Servicer and any sub-servicers engaged by Seller to execute a letter agreement with Purchaser (a “Servicer Letter”) in form and substance acceptable to Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion acknowledging Purchaser’s security interest in the Purchased Assets and agreeing to remit all Income received with respect to the Purchased Asset to the Collection Account in accordance with Article 5(e) or as otherwise directed by Purchaser in accordance with the Servicer Letter.

(f)Seller agrees that Purchaser is the owner of all servicing records related to the Purchased Assets, including but not limited to the Servicing Agreement, files, documents, records, data bases, computer tapes, copies of computer tapes, proof of insurance coverage, insurance policies, appraisals, other closing documentation, payment history records, and any other records relating to or evidencing the servicing of Purchased Assets (the “Servicing Records”) so long as the Purchased Assets are subject to this Agreement. Seller covenants to (or to use commercially reasonable efforts cause Servicer to) safeguard such Servicing Records and to deliver them promptly to Purchaser or its designee (including the Custodian) at Purchaser’s request.

(g)Except as set forth in the Transaction DocumenetsDocuments, the payment of servicing fees shall be solely the responsibility of Seller and shall be subordinate to payment of amounts outstanding and due to Purchaser under the Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE 30

Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In

(a)Contractual Recognition of Bail-in.

(i)Each party acknowledges and accepts that liabilities arising under this Agreement (other than Excluded Liabilities) may be subject to the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the relevant resolution authority and acknowledges and accepts to be bound by any Bail-in Action and the effects thereof (including any variation, modification and/or amendment to the terms of this Agreement as may be necessary to give effect to any such Bail-in Action), which if the Bail-in Termination Amount is payable by Purchaser to Seller may include, without limitation:

(A)a reduction, in full or in part, of the Bail-in Termination Amount; and/or

(B)a conversion of all, or a portion of, the Bail-in Termination Amount into shares or other instruments of ownership, in which case Seller acknowledges and accepts that any such shares or other instruments of ownership may be issued to or conferred upon it as a result of the Bail-in Action.

(ii)Each party acknowledges and accepts that this provision is exhaustive on the matters described herein to the exclusion of any other agreements, arrangements or understanding between the parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and that no further notice shall be required between the parties pursuant to the Agreement in order to give effect to the matters described herein.

(iii)The acknowledgements and acceptances contained in clauses (i) and (ii) above will not apply if:

(A)the relevant resolution authority determines that the liabilities arising under this Agreement may be subject to the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power pursuant to the law of the third country governing such liabilities or a binding agreement concluded with such third country and in either case the UK Regulations have been amended to reflect such determination; and/or

(B)the UK Regulations have been repealed or amended in such a way as to remove the requirement for the acknowledgements and acceptances contained in clauses (i) and (ii).

(iv)For purposes of this Article 30:

“Bail-in Action” means the exercise of the UK Bail-in Power by the relevant resolution authority in respect of all transactions (or all transactions relating to one or more netting sets, as applicable) under this Agreement.

“Bail-in Termination Amount” means the early termination amount or early termination amounts (howsoever described), together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, in respect of all transactions (or all transactions relating to one or more netting sets, as applicable) under this Agreement (before, for the avoidance of doubt, any such amount is written down or converted by the relevant resolution authority).

“BRRD” means Directive 2014/59/EU establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms.

“Excluded Liabilities” means liabilities excluded from the scope of the contractual recognition of bail-in requirement pursuant to the UK Regulations.

“UK Bail-in Power” means any write-down or conversion power existing from time to time (including, without limitation, any power to amend or alter the maturity of eligible liabilities of an institution under resolution or amend the amount of interest payable under such eligible liabilities or the date on which interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period) under, and exercised in compliance with, any laws, regulations, rules or requirements (together, the “UK Regulations”) in effect in the United Kingdom relating to the transposition of the BRRD as amended from time to time, including but not limited to, the Banking Act 2009 as amended from time to time, and the instruments, rules and standards created thereunder, pursuant to which the obligations of a regulated entity (or other affiliate of a regulated entity) can be reduced (including to zero), cancelled or converted into shares, other securities, or other obligations of such regulated entity or any other person.

A reference to a “regulated entity” is to any BRRD undertaking as such term is defined under the PRA Rulebook promulgated by the United Kingdom Prudential Regulation Authority

or to any person falling within IFPRU 11.6, of the FCA Handbook promulgated by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), both as amended from time to time, which includes, certain credit institutions, investment firms, and certain of their parent or holding companies.

(b)Contractual Recognition of UK Stay in Resolution. Where a resolution measure is taken in relation to any BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking and that BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking is a party to this Agreement (any such party to this Agreement being an “Affected Party”), each other party to this Agreement agrees that it shall only be entitled to exercise any termination rights under or rights to enforce a security interest in connection with this Agreementý against the Affected Party to the extent that it would be entitled to do so under the Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of any part of the United Kingdom.

For the purpose of this clause, “resolution measure” means a ‘crisis prevention measure’, ‘crisis management measure’ or ‘recognised third-country resolution action’, each with the meaning given in the “PRA Rulebook: CRR Firms and Non-Authorised Persons: Stay in Resolution Instrument 2015”, as may be amended from time to time (the “PRA Contractual Stay Rules”), provided, however, that ‘crisis prevention measure’ shall be interpreted in the manner outlined in Rule 2.3 of the PRA Contractual Stay Rules; “BRRD undertaking”, “group”, “Special Resolution Regime” and “termination right” have the respective meanings given in the PRA Contractual Stay Rules.

(c)Notice Regarding Client Money Rules. Purchaser, as a CRD credit institution (as such term is defined in the rules of the FCA), holds all money received and held by it hereunder as banker and not as trustee. Accordingly, money that is received and held by Purchaser from Seller will not be held in accordance with the provisions of the FCA’s Client Asset Sourcebook relating to client money (the “Client Money Rules”) and will not be subject to the statutory trust provided for under the Client Money Rules. In particular, Purchaser shall not segregate money received by it from Seller from Purchaser money and Purchaser shall not be liable to account to Seller for any profits made by Purchaser use as banker of such cash and upon failure of Purchaser, the client money distribution rules within the Client Asset Sourcebook (the “Client Money Distribution Rules”) will not apply to these sums and so Seller will not be entitled to share in any distribution under the Client Money Distribution Rules.

ARTICLE 31

MISCELLANEOUS

(a)All rights, remedies and powers of Purchaser hereunder and in connection herewith are irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights, remedies and powers of Purchaser whether under law, equity or agreement. In addition to the rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement, to the extent this Agreement is determined to create a security interest, Purchaser shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.

(b)The Transaction Documents may be executed in counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute

but one and the same instrument. Signature pages to any Transaction Document or certification delivered pursuant thereto delivered in electronic form (such as PDF) shall be considered binding with the same force and effect as original signatures.

(c)The headings in the Transaction Documents are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of the Transaction Documents.

(d)Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or be invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

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

(f)The parties understand that this Agreement is a legally binding agreement that may affect such party’s rights. Each party represents to the other that it has received legal advice from counsel of its choice regarding the meaning and legal significance of this Agreement and that it is satisfied with its legal counsel and the advice received from it.

(g)Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof shall be more strictly construed against any Person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the Person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties have participated in the preparation of this Agreement.

(h)Unless otherwise specifically enumerated, wherever pursuant to this Agreement Purchaser exercises any right given to it to consent or not consent, or to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to, Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion, Purchaser shall decide to consent or not consent, or to approve or disapprove or to decide that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory, in its sole and absolute discretion and such decision by Purchaser shall be final and conclusive.

(i)All information regarding the terms set forth in any of the Transaction Documents or the Transactions (the “Confidential Information”) shall be kept confidential and shall not be disclosed by either Seller or Purchaser to any Person except (a) to the Affiliates of such party or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, accountants, attorneys, advisors and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep it confidential, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or Governmental Authority or required by any Requirement of Law (including any disclosures required pursuant to any subpoena, legal process or other court or regulatory authority order), (c) to the extent required to be included in the financial statements of either Seller or Purchaser or their respective Affiliates, (d) to the extent required to exercise any rights or remedies under the Transaction Documents or Purchased Asset Documents, (e) to the extent required to consummate and administer a Transaction, and (f) to any

actual or prospective assignee or holder of a participation interest or other Person which agrees to comply with this Article 31(i). In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser agrees to keep confidential all non-public information delivered by or on behalf of Seller or Guarantor or any of their Affiliates and shall not disclose such information other than as permitted or required pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) through (f), inclusive, except that, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, all such information relating solely to any Purchased Asset and the Collateral, but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any such information relating to Guarantor or any of its Affiliates, shall be automatically excluded from the provisions of this Article 31(i). Notwithstanding anything in this Article 31(i) to the contrary, Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the receiving party or any of its Representatives in violation of this Article 31(i); (ii) is or becomes available to the receiving party or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing party not known to the receiving party or any of its Representatives to be prohibited from disclosing such information by a contractual obligation of confidentiality; (iii) is independently developed or conceived by or on behalf of the receiving party or any of its Representatives without use of or reliance on any Confidential Information; (iv) was known to or in the possession of the receiving party or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the disclosing party.

ARTICLE 32

TAXES

(a)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Seller under this Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then Seller shall make (or cause to be made) such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay (or cause to be timely paid) the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Article 32), Purchaser receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)Seller shall timely pay, without duplication, to the relevant Governmental Authority any Other Taxes imposed on Seller in accordance with Requirements of Law or, at the option of Purchaser, reimburse Purchaser, as the case may be, upon written notice from Purchaser setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of such Other Taxes paid by Purchaser.

(c)Seller shall indemnify Purchaser, within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Article) payable or paid by Purchaser or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Purchaser, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that if Seller reasonably believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, Purchaser will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Seller to obtain a refund of such Taxes (which shall be

repaid to Seller in accordance with Article 32(e)) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of Purchaser, result in any additional out-of-pocket costs or expenses not reimbursed by Seller or be otherwise materially disadvantageous to Purchaser). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Seller by Purchaser shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)Status of Purchaser.

(i)If Purchaser is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under the Transaction Documents, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, prior to becoming a party to this Agreement, and at the time or times reasonably requested by Seller, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Seller as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, Purchaser, if reasonably requested by Seller, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Seller as will enable Seller to determine whether or not Purchaser is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Article 32(d)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’sPurchaser’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such LenderPurchaser to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such LenderPurchaser.

(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A)if Purchaser is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to Seller on or prior to the date on which Purchaser becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller), executed copies or originals of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that Purchaser is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)if the Purchaser is not a U.S. Person, it shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or prior to the date on which Purchaser becomes a party under this Agreement, whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)in the case of a Purchaser that is claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments characterized as interest for U.S. tax purposes under any Transaction Document, executed copies or originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2)executed copies or originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)in the case of a Purchaser claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Purchaser is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Seller within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies or originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(4)to the extent a Purchaser is not the beneficial owner, executed copies or originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Purchaser is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Purchaser are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Purchaser may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)if Purchaser is not a U.S. Person, it shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Seller (in such number of copies as shall be requested by Seller) on or prior to the date on which Purchaser becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Seller), executed copies or originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Seller to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)if a payment made to Purchaser under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Purchaser were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Purchaser shall deliver to Seller at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller as may be necessary for Seller to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that Purchaser has complied with Purchaser’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Purchaser agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification and provide such successor form to Seller, or promptly notify Seller in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(e)If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Article 32 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Article 32), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Article 32 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out of pocket costs and expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Article 32(e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 32(e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Article 32(e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(f)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Article 32 shall survive any assignment of rights by Xxxxxxxxx, the termination of the Transactions and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.
