LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of the Effective Date by and among the GOLD HILL LENDERS referenced on Exhibit A attached hereto (as modified from time to time in accordance with Section 12.1 of this Agreement, the “Lenders”); GOLD HILL VENTURE LENDING 03, LP (“Gold Hill”) in its capacity as Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, SILICON VALLEY BANK, in its capacity as Collection Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and LENDINGCLUB CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), provides the terms on which Lenders shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lenders. The parties agree as follows:

Recitals.

A. Borrower is engaged in the business of purchasing, servicing and selling loans made by WebBank to consumers (“Consumer Loans”).

Borrower then sells to certain consumer lenders (“Consumer Lenders”) and such Consumer Lenders purchase individual promissory notes evidencing their interest in such Consumer Loan.

B. Borrower has requested that Lenders extend credit to Borrower to finance certain Consumer Loans, and Lenders have so agreed, but only to the extent, in accordance with the terms, subject to the conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement.

1 ACCOUNTING AND OTHER TERMS

Accounting terms not defined in this Agreement shall be construed following GAAP. Calculations and determinations must be made following GAAP. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13. All other terms contained in this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated, shall have the meaning provided by the Code to the extent such terms are defined therein.

2 LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT

2.1 Promise to Pay. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Lenders the outstanding principal amount of all Credit Extensions and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

2.1.1 Loan Facility.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Lenders agree, severally and not jointly, to make advances to Borrower, from time to time, prior to the Commitment Termination Date (each an “Advance” and collectively the “Advances”), in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Loan Commitment according to each Lender’s pro rata share of the Loan Commitment (based upon the respective Commitment Percentage of each Lender). Each Advance must be in an amount of at least Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) not

exceeding the amount that has not yet been drawn under the Loan Commitment; provided, however, that no Advance shall be in an amount in excess of the Advance Rate multiplied by the aggregate original principal amount of the Eligible Loans which are financed by such Advance. After repayment, no Advance may be reborrowed. Lenders’ obligation to lend hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of (i) a Lender’s election on the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, or (ii) the Commitment Termination Date. When Lenders makes an Advance, Borrower shall cause WebBank to execute and deliver a listing of the notes payable to Borrower in the amount of the portion of the Eligible Loan being financed by such Advance (the “Financed Loan Note”) and each such Financed Loan Note will be stored electronically in the Borrower’s lending account and electronically endorsed by WebBank to Borrower. The portion of the Eligible Loan being financed by the Advance and evidenced by the Financed Loan Note shall become a “Financed Loan”. Borrower shall immediately electronically endorse the Financed Loan Note or Financed Loan Notes to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, and to each Lender, using the Standard Assignment Forms.

(b) Borrowing Procedure. To obtain an Advance, Borrower must notify Administrative Agent by facsimile or telephone by 12:00 p.m. Pacific Time five (5) Business Days prior to the Funding Date of the Advance. If such notification is by telephone, Borrower must promptly confirm the notification by delivering to Administrative Agent an Advance Form in the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Payment Advance Form”). On the Funding Date, each Lender shall credit and/or transfer (as applicable) to Borrower’s deposit account, an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage multiplied by the amount of the Advance. Each Lender may make Advances under this Agreement based on instructions from a Responsible Officer or his or her designee or without instructions if the Advances are necessary to meet Obligations which have become due.

2.2 Termination of Commitment to Lend. Each Lender’s obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of the Obligations shall terminate if, in such Lender’s sole discretion, there has been a Material Adverse Change in the general affairs, management, results of operation, condition (financial or otherwise) or the prospect of repayment of the Obligations, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower from the most recent business plan of Borrower presented to and accepted by Administrative Agent prior to the execution of this Agreement.

2.3 Repayment of Credit Extensions.

(a) Principal and Interest Payments. Commencing on the first (1^st) day of the first (1st) month after the Funding Date, Borrower shall make equal monthly payments of principal and interest, each in an amount sufficient to fully amortize the amount of each outstanding Advance during the Repayment Period. Notwithstanding the forgoing, all unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest is due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. An Advance may only be prepaid in accordance with Sections 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6.

(b) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(c), the principal amount outstanding for each Advance shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate often percent (10%), which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.3 (a) above.

(c) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is five (5) percentage points above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Lenders.

(d) 360-Day Year. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.

(e) Debit of Accounts. Collection Agent may debit any of Borrower’s deposit accounts, including the Designated Deposit Account, for principal and interest payments or any other amounts Borrower owes Lenders when due. These debits shall not constitute a set-off.

(f) Payments. Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable monthly on the first (1st) calendar day of each month. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 12:00 p.m. Pacific time are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue.

2.4 Permitted Prepayment of Advances. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall have the option to prepay all, but not less than all, of each Advance advanced by Lenders under this Agreement, provided Borrower (a) delivers written notice to Lenders of its election to prepay such Advance or Advances at least thirty (30) days prior to such prepayment, and (b) pays, on the date of such prepayment (i) all outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest for such Advance or Advances, (ii) the Final Payment for such Advance or Advances, and (iii) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable for such Advance or Advances, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

2.5 Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. If the Advances are accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise, Borrower shall immediately pay to Lenders an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal plus accrued interest, (ii) the Final Payment plus (iii) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable, including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts.

2.6 Mandatory Prepayment Upon Prepayment of Eligible Loans. If any portion of a Financed Loan (a) is repaid or (b) becomes categorized as a Charge-off (as defined in Section 13.1 below), Borrower shall immediately pay to Collection Agent, for the benefit of Lenders an amount equal to such repaid or Charged-off portion of the Financed Loan.

8.7 Judgments. One or more judgments, orders, or decrees for the payment of money in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of at least Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) (not covered by independent third-party insurance as to which liability has been accepted by such insurance carrier) shall be rendered against Borrower and shall remain unsatisfied, unvacated, or unstayed for a period often (10) days after the entry thereof (provided that no Credit Extensions will be made prior to the satisfaction, vacation, or stay of such judgment, order, or decree);

8.8 Misrepresentations. Borrower or any Person acting for Borrower makes any representation, warranty, or other statement now or later in this Agreement, any Loan Document or in any writing delivered to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders or to induce Administrative Agent and/or Lenders to enter this Agreement or any Loan Document, and such representation, warranty, or other statement is incorrect in any material respect when made;

jurisdiction and such revocation, rescission, suspension, modification or non-renewal could reasonably be expected to affect the status of or legal qualifications of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to hold any Governmental Approval in any other jurisdiction.

9 LENDERS’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues Administrative Agent may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:

(a) declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.5 occurs all Obligations are immediately due and payable without any action by Administrative Agent and/or Lenders);

(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Administrative Agent and/or Lenders;

(c) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Administrative Agent considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Administrative Agents’ security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account. Borrower shall collect all payments in trust for Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders and, if requested by Administrative Agent, immediately deliver the payments to Lenders in the form received from the account debtor, with proper endorsement for deposit;

(d) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Administrative Agent requests and make it available as Administrative Agent designates. Administrative Agent may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Administrative Agent’s rights or remedies;

(e) apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Administrative Agent or Lenders owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

(f) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Administrative Agent is hereby granted a non-

exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Administrative Agent’s exercise of its rights under this Section, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Administrative Agent for benefit of Lenders;

(g) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Administrative Agent and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

(h) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

(i) exercise all rights and remedies available to Lenders under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

9.2 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any (i) checks or other forms of payment or security, including without limitation, forms of payment received in connection with Financed Loans and (ii) notes or other negotiable instruments issued or assigned to Borrower in connection with Financed Loans, including without limitation, the Financed Loan Notes; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or xxxx of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Administrative Agent determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Administrative Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign Borrower’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been satisfied in full and Administrative Agent and Lenders are under no further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Administrative Agent’s foregoing appointment as Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Administrative Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and Lenders’ and Administrative Agent’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

9.3 Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.4 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders are Lender Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest applicable rate, and secured by the Collateral.

Administrative Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Borrower with notice of Lenders obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Administrative Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ waiver of any Event of Default.

9.4 Application of Payments and Proceeds. Borrower shall have no right to specify the order or the accounts to which Collection Agent shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by Borrower to Collection Agent on behalf of the Lenders or otherwise received by Collection Agent on behalf of Lenders under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Collection Agent may apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Collection Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Collection Agent and Lenders for any deficiency. If Collection Agent and/or Lenders, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Collection Agent and/or Lenders shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Collection Agent of cash therefor.

9.5 Agent Expenses. Any amounts paid by Administrative Agent or Collection Agent as provided herein are Agent Expenses and are immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate and be secured by the Collateral. No payments by Administrative Agent or Collection Agent shall be deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or a waiver of any Event of Default.

9.6 Agents’ Liability for Collateral. So long as Agents and Lenders comply with reasonable banking practices regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral, Agents and Lenders shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.7 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Agents’ and/or Lenders’ failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Agents or Lenders thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by each Lender and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Agents’ and Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Agents and Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Agents’ and/or Lenders’ exercise of one right or remedy is not an election, and Agents’ and/or Lenders’ waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Agents’ and/or Lenders’ delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

9.8 Demand Waiver. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by any Agent or any Lender on which Borrower is liable.

11 CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND JUDICIAL REFERENCE

California law governs the Loan Documents without regard to principles of conflicts of law. Borrower, Lenders and Agents each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in Santa Xxxxx County, California; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Lenders or Agents from bringing suit or

taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Agents or Lenders. Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and Borrower hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to Borrower at the address set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BORROWER, AGENTS, AND LENDERS EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR BOTH PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes or controversies of any nature between them arising at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the parties (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Xxxxx County, California Superior Court) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in Santa Xxxxx County, California; and the parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court. The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive. The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers. All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed. If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Santa Xxxxx County, California Superior Court for such relief. The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings. The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and order applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge. The parties agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the

action or proceeding, whether of fact or of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a). Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies. The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph.

At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without demand or notice, Administrative Agent may set-off the same or any part thereof and apply the same to any liability or obligation of Borrower and any guarantor even though unmatured and regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral securing the Obligations. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE AGENTS TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.
