SECTION 2.02 Commitments. The Commitments of all of the Committed Lenders shall automatically, and without further action, terminate on the Commitment Termination Date. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.04, the Aggregate Loan Amount would exceed the total Commitments. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under this Section at least two Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to the Committed Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Advance Percentage.

SECTION 2.03 Mandatory Principal Payments.

(a) Final Maturity Date. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the Aggregate Loan Amount, together with all accrued interest thereon and all other accrued but unpaid Obligations, on the Final Maturity Date.

(b) Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists on any date of determination, if such Borrowing Base Deficiency is not cured through the acquisition by the Borrower of additional Eligible Receivables within two Business Days, then: (i) if such second Business Day following the occurrence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency is a Settlement Date, the Borrower shall remit to the Paying Agent an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency if there are insufficient Available Funds to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency from distributions to be made hereunder on such date pursuant to Section 3.02; and (ii) otherwise, the Borrower shall remit the amount of such Borrowing Base Deficiency to the Paying Agent (for a principal repayment to the Lenders based on their Pro Rata Share), by the close of business on such second Business Day following the occurrence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency. The Borrower shall remit all accrued interest on the amount of any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.03(b).

SECTION 2.04 Voluntary Prepayments and Releases.

(a) Prepayment and Release Process. The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, to make a voluntary prepayment of all or any portion of the Aggregate Loan Amount or request a Release, subject to the terms of this Section 2.04 and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.02. The Borrower may request a voluntary prepayment and/or a Release on any Business Day (a “Prepayment/Release Date”) by delivering to each Agent (which document the Administrative Agent shall promptly make available to the Lenders in accordance with its customary practice) by not later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time at least two Business Days prior to the requested Prepayment/Release Date, written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “Prepayment/Release Notice”); provided, that (i) any partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is not less than $1,000,000, and (ii) in no event shall there be more than two Activity Dates in any calendar week. Each Prepayment/Release Notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt; provided further that if such Prepayment/Release Notice is delivered more than two Business Days prior to the requested Prepayment/Release Date, it shall be revocable, without penalty, through the close of business on the Business Day preceding such second prior Business Day.

(b) Required Information. Each Prepayment/Release Notice shall: (i) be executed by the Borrower; (ii) set forth the applicable prepayment amount (if any) and itemize any additional amounts payable (if any) on the applicable Prepayment/Release Date pursuant to Section 2.04(e); (iii) in the event of any prepayment, set forth the Aggregate Loan Amount immediately before and immediately after giving effect to any applicable prepayment; (iv) in the event of any Release, (A) identify any Purchased Receivables subject to such Release, and (B) certify that the conditions precedent to such Release set forth in Section 5.02 have been satisfied; (v) in the event of a partial Release, attach a Borrowing Base Certificate and Data File; and (vi) contain the Supplemental Information and Certification.

(c) Pro Forma Calculations. The Borrowing Base Certificate and Data File (if any Release shall occur on the applicable Prepayment/Release Date) required to be delivered with any Prepayment/Release Notice shall be dated and current as of the close of business on the date preceding the delivery date for such Prepayment/Release Notice set forth above and shall show pro forma calculations of the Reserve Account Prepayment Amount, and Borrowing Base as of the applicable Prepayment/Release Date (after giving effect to any prepayment and Release on such date), and shall include, without limitation, identification of the Purchased Receivables subject to any Release on such Prepayment/Release Date and certification of which Purchased Receivables that will remain after giving effect to any such Release will be Eligible Receivables on such Prepayment/Release Date. The Borrower hereby agrees that it shall, or it shall cause the Servicer to, immediately notify the Administrative Agent and Paying Agent if any such pro forma information or calculations fail to be true as of the related Prepayment/Release Date, together with corrected and updated information and calculations as of such Prepayment/Release Date.

(d) Prepayment. On each Prepayment/Release Date, by 1:00 p.m. New York City time, (i) the Paying Agent shall withdraw from the Reserve Account an amount equal to the Reserve Account Prepayment Amount determined pursuant to Section 2.04(c), and (ii) the Borrower shall remit funds to the Paying Agent, such that the amount of funds held by the Paying Agent pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall together equal the sum of: (A) the amount of the voluntary prepayment set forth in the Prepayment/Release Notice and the amount of any Borrowing Base Deficiency (as determined after giving effect to any Release, prepayment and any other distributions on such date), (B) all accrued interest on the amount set forth in the foregoing clause (A), and (C) without duplication of clauses (A) and (B), all other amounts of the type described in Sections 3.02(a)(i) through (vii) that have accrued through such date that either remain unpaid from any prior Settlement Date or for which there are insufficient Available Funds to distribute in payment thereof on such date (if it is a Settlement Date) or on the next Settlement Date.

(e) Distributions. By the close of business on the Prepayment/Release Date, based on the information set forth in the applicable Prepayment/Release Notice described in Section 2.04(b)(ii) (unless the Administrative Agent has notified the Paying Agent and the Borrower in writing prior thereto that it objects to such information based on such information not being consistent with the requirements of this Agreement, in which case the following shall be done on the Business Day following the Business Day on which the Paying Agent receives an updated Prepayment/Release Notice from the Borrower that has been reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent), the total amount of funds held by the Paying Agent from the Reserve Account withdrawal and from the Borrower remittance pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 2.04(d) shall be distributed by the Paying Agent (solely in accordance with the Prepayment/Release Notice or, if applicable, the updated Prepayment/Release Notice referred to in the prior parenthetical) as follows: (i) to the Lenders, based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share, the amount set forth in clause (A) of Section 2.04(d), to be applied to reduction of the Aggregate Loan Amount (and the Loan Amount of each Lender), (ii) to each Lender, the accrued interest thereon, as described in the clause (B) of Section 2.04(d), and (iii) to each Person entitled thereto, the amounts described in clause (C) of Section 2.04(d) for application thereto.

(f) Release. On each Prepayment/Release Date, subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.02, upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the amount required to be remitted by the Borrower on such date pursuant to Section 2.04(d), the portion of the Purchased Receivables (and the related Purchased Assets) identified for Release by the Borrower shall be automatically released from the Lien of the Collateral Trustee and such Receivables shall no longer be “Purchased Receivables” (and the related assets shall no longer be “Purchased Assets”) or included in any Borrowing Base calculation hereunder and shall not be required to be included in any certificate or report required to be delivered hereunder. Each Agent, at the expense and request of the Borrower, shall take (or authorize the Borrower, the Servicer or their respective designees to take) such actions as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to release the Lien of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on such Purchased Receivables (and the related Purchased Assets) and to turn over to the Borrower or its designee any Receivable Documents with respect to such Receivables that are in the possession or control of any such Agent; provided, a copy thereof may be retained by such Agent in accordance with its document retention policies.

(g) No Adverse Selection. The Borrower will not, and will not permit the Servicer to, use any selection procedures intentionally designed to have an adverse effect on the Secured Parties when selecting Purchased Receivables within any particular Cohort to be subject to a Release relative to Purchased Receivables in the same Cohort not selected for such Release; provided, the foregoing does not apply to selections between or among different Cohorts.

SECTION 2.05 Recording Loans. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for tax purposes, as non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the following information: (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders (including each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement), (ii) each Lender’s Loan Amount (as such amount may change upon any Advance funded pursuant to the terms hereof, each principal repayment and any assignment hereunder) and stated interest, and (iii) the Commitment of each Committed Lender. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Paying Agent, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each assignment or transfer evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed pursuant to Section 9.03(e) shall be recorded in the Register, and no assignment or transfer shall be effective until such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this subsection. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Paying Agent with a copy of the Register at closing and after any assignments or transfers have been recorded in the Register. In making any distributions to Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely on the Register most recently provided to the Paying Agent by the Administrative Agent and it shall be the responsibility of the Administrative Agent to provide the Paying Agent with an updated copy of the Register in the event there are any assignments or transfers.

SECTION 2.06 Interest; Fees; Monthly Invoices.

(a) Upfront Commitment Fee. On the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to each Committed Lender, the Upfront Commitment Fee due to it pursuant to the Fee Letter.

(b) Interest. Interest will accrue daily on the Loan Amount of each Lender at the applicable Interest Rate for such Lender as in effect from time to time, and will be computed for each Interest Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year. Accrued and unpaid interest for each Interest Period will be payable on each Settlement Date as set forth in the Monthly Invoice except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest shall accrue on all Obligations at the Interest Rate calculated with the inclusion of the Default Margin (as set forth in the definition thereof) and shall be payable upon demand.

(c) Maximum Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest payable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law. Accordingly, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any interest is charged to, collected from or received from or on behalf of the Borrower by the Lenders pursuant hereto in excess of such maximum lawful rate, then the excess of such payment over that maximum shall be applied first to the payment of amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than in respect of principal or interest on the Loans) and then to the reduction of the outstanding principal of the Loans.

(d) Unused Fee. The Unused Fee due to each Committed Lender shall accrue daily from (and including) the execution of this Agreement through (and excluding) the Commitment Termination Date, and will be computed for each Interest Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year; provided, however, that no amount shall be due hereunder in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law. Accrued and unpaid Unused Fee for each Interest Period will be payable on each Settlement Date as set forth in the Monthly Invoice except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Unused Fee paid to any Committed Lender is non-refundable under any circumstances.

(e) Monthly Invoice. The Administrative Agent will prepare an invoice for each Settlement Date (each, a “Monthly Invoice”), and deliver such invoice to the Servicer and the Borrower on the related Invoice Delivery Date, setting forth the Interest Period Invoice Amount due by the Borrower to each of the Lenders on such Settlement Date. The Borrower shall cause the Servicer to include the Interest Period Invoice Amount set forth in such invoice as the amount to be distributed to the Lenders with respect thereto on the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate for such Settlement Date. The determination by the Administrative Agent of the Interest Period Invoice Amount (and the Interest Rate used in the calculation thereof) due to each of the Lenders, as set forth on any such invoice, shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.07 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Regulatory Requirement shall (i) subject any Lender or Related Person to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its Loan or Commitment hereunder or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or Related Person, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be an increase in the cost of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by, such Lender or Related Person, that in the case of any of the foregoing, arise in respect of the making, continuing or maintaining (or the commitment to make, continue or maintain) any Loan hereunder, then, from time to time either (x) within 10 days of demand thereof (if paid directly to such Lender by the Borrower from funds other than Collections) or (y) on the next Settlement Date after such tenth day if no direct payment was made (from Collections held in the Collection Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments), the Borrower will pay to the applicable Lender, on behalf of such Lender or any Related Person, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or any such Related Person, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, but without duplication of any amount payable pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section and Section 2.08.

(b) Increased Capital Costs. If any Lender or Related Person determines that any Regulatory Requirement regarding liquidity or the amount of capital required or reasonably expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Related Person has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender or such Related Person to a level below that which such Lender or such Related Person could have achieved but for such Regulatory Requirement, or would otherwise result in the imposition of an internal capital or liquidity charge on such Lender or such Related Person, which, in the reasonable discretion of such Lender or such Related Person with respect to any of the foregoing, is allocable to the Borrower, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any Commitment or Loan hereunder (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such Related Person with respect to capital adequacy, liquidity coverage and allocations among customers), then from time to time either (x) within 10 days of demand thereof (if paid directly to such Lender by the Borrower from funds other than Collections) or (y) on the next Settlement Date after such tenth day if no direct payment was made (from Collections held in the Collection Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments), the Borrower will pay to the Lender, on behalf of such Lender or any such Related Person, a fee equal to such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Related Person for any such reduction in its rate of return or the imposition of such capital or liquidity charge.

(c) Timing and Details of Demands. Each demand made pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be provided by a Lender to the Borrower in writing and shall state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In determining the amount owed by the Borrower under this Section 2.07, any applicable Lender or Related Person may use any method of averaging and attribution that it shall reasonably deem applicable so long as it applies such method to other similar transactions. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Related Person to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall not constitute a waiver of any such Lender or Related Person’s right to compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender or Related Person pursuant to this Section 2.07 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or Related Person notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Requirement giving rise thereto; provided further that, if such Regulatory Requirement is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to in the preceding proviso shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.08 Taxes.

(a) Payment of Indemnified Taxes. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other payments by the Borrower, the Seller, or the Servicer hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest or penalties thereon or additions thereto (any of the foregoing, “Taxes”), except as may be required by law. In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder and/or under any other Transaction Document is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower will: (i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted; (ii) promptly forward to the affected Lender or its agent an official receipt or other documentation evidencing such payment to such authority; and (iii) solely in the case of Taxes other than Excluded Taxes (such non-excluded Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Transaction Document being called “Indemnified Taxes”), pay to the affected Lender or its agent such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by such Lender will equal the full amount such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. In connection with any amounts to be reimbursed to any Lender on a Settlement Date pursuant to this Section, the Borrower hereby agrees that it shall cause the Servicer to reflect such amounts to be reimbursed to each Lender on the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate.

(b) Indemnified Tax Gross-up; Failure to Pay. If any Indemnified Taxes are directly asserted against any Lender with respect to any payment received by such Lender or its agent, such Lender or such agent may pay such Indemnified Taxes and the Borrower will promptly upon receipt of prior written notice stating the amount of such Indemnified Taxes pay such additional amounts as is necessary in order for the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Lender would have received had such Indemnified Taxes not been asserted. If the Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to a Lender or its agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender, its Affiliates and its agent, if any, for any Indemnified Taxes and incremental Indemnified Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such Lender or its agent as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 2.08, a distribution hereunder by the agent for a Lender shall be deemed a payment by such Lender.

(c) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.03(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Paying Agent or the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection (c).

(d) Withholding Tax Exemption. The Paying Agent or any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such documentation prescribed by Requirements of Law or otherwise reasonably requested with respect to any applicable exemption from withholding Tax and with respect to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. 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 Section 2.08 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket 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 paragraph (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 paragraph (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (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 Section 2.08 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 2.09 Costs Related to Advance or Prepayment Failures. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender, either (x) within 10 days of demand thereof (if paid directly to such Lender by the Borrower from funds other than Collections) or (y) on the next Settlement Date after such tenth day if no direct payment was made (from Collections held in the Collection Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments), for all reasonable losses, expenses, liabilities (including, without limitation, with respect to any interest or fee paid by such Lender to any lender, note buyer, credit or liquidity support provider, dealer, placement agent or other Person) or losses or costs arising in connection with the re-deployment of funds, which such Lender may sustain if for any reason (including any failure to satisfy any condition precedent), the Borrower (i) fails to accept an Advance on any scheduled Advance Date after delivery of an Advance Notice, (ii) fails to make a prepayment on any scheduled Prepayment/Release Date after delivery of any Prepayment/Release Notice (that, in the case of any such Advance Notice or Prepayment/Release Notice, as the case may be, has not been revoked prior to the second Business Day preceding the applicable Advance Date or Prepayment/Release Date, as the case may be), or (iii) makes any prepayment on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.09 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), providing a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts and the basis for requesting such payment, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In connection with any amounts to be reimbursed to any Lender on a Settlement Date pursuant to this Section, the Borrower hereby agrees that it shall cause the Servicer to reflect such amounts to be reimbursed to each Lender on the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate.

SECTION 2.10 Designation of Different Lending Office. If any Lender or a Related Person thereof requests compensation under Section 2.07, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender, a Related Person thereof or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or a Related Person thereof pursuant to Section 2.08, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.08, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender or such Related Person to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such Related Person. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

SECTION 2.11 Syndication. If at any time (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, and (ii) any Lender intends to assign its Commitment and/or Loan to any assignee that is not a Citibank Person (other than an assignment pursuant to Section 9.03(d)), the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with at least five Business Days prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall work together in good faith to amend this Agreement in order to add provisions with respect to defaulting Lenders that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, or, if no agreement is reached in such 5 Business Day period, then the LSTA form provisions shall be added at such time (the “LSTA Modified Terms”); provided, notwithstanding any other requirement set forth herein for an amendment to be effective, an amendment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be effective upon either (A) mutual written agreement of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; or (B) a writing signed by the Administrative Agent only in accordance with this subsection setting forth the LSTA Modified Terms that shall become part hereof; provided, however that, if in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, the rights, duties, immunities or liabilities of the Paying Agent or the Collateral Trustee would be adversely affected thereby, such affected Agent’s consent shall be required; and provided, further that if, in the judgment of the Paying Agent or the Collateral Trustee, the rights, duties, immunities or liabilities of such Agent would be adversely affected thereby, then such amendment shall not be effective against such Agent until such Agent has given its written consent thereto.

SECTION 2.12 Illegality; Substituted Interest Rates. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, (a) if any applicable Requirements of Law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for a Lender (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate) to make or maintain any Loan at the LIBOR rate as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, or (b) in the event that any Lender (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate), or the Administrative Agent on behalf of all such Lenders, shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the LIBOR interbank market neither adequate nor reasonable means exist for ascertaining the LIBOR rate, or (c) Majority Lenders (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate), or the Administrative Agent on behalf of all such Lenders, shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error) that the applicable LIBOR rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of maintaining or funding the Loans, as applicable, based on such applicable LIBOR rate (provided that the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall only make such determination if the published LIBOR rate used by such Lender does not (or by the Lenders do not) accurately reflect the actual LIBOR rate), then (x) the obligation of such Lender (or, if applicable, all affected Lenders) to make or maintain the Loans at the LIBOR rate shall forthwith be suspended and such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (by telephone confirmed in writing) and (y) each affected Loan then outstanding, if any, shall, from and including the date that is forty five (45) days after the Borrower’s receipt of notice from such Lender or the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of any condition set forth in clause (a), (b) or (c), or at such earlier date as may be required by law, until payment in full thereof, bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the Interest Rate calculated using the Prime Rate as the Benchmark Rate rather than LIBOR, and (ii) the Interest Rate in effect on the date immediately preceding the date any event described in clause (a), (b) or (c) occurred (calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days). If subsequent to such suspension of the obligation of a Lender or the applicable Lenders to make or maintain the Loans using LIBOR as the Benchmark Rate, the circumstances that resulted in such suspension no longer exist, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall so notify the Borrower and the previous method to determine the Interest Rate (without application of this Section) shall be reinstated effective as of the date that such circumstances no longer exist with respect to such Lender or the applicable Lenders.

ARTICLE III
COLLECTIONS, PAYMENTS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

SECTION 3.01 Obligor Payments; Netting of Seller and Servicer Purchases; Account Deposits and Transfers.

(a) Payment and Deposit of Collections. Subject to subsection (b) of this Section, the Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, instruct and cause the Obligors of Purchased Receivables to send all Scheduled Payments and other amounts due thereunder directly to the Servicer and cause all ACH debits from an Obligor’s bank account to be remitted to the Servicer’s servicing account, subject to the rights under the Servicing Agreement to retain a Collection Agent or sub-servicer. All Collections or other proceeds of Collateral received by the Servicer, Borrower, any other LC Group Member, any Collection Agent, or any other sub-servicer or agent of any of them, shall be transferred to the Collection Account within the Designated Business Days of receipt thereof; provided, that all such Collections and proceeds shall be held in trust for and on behalf of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, until deposited into the Collection Account.

(b) Collections Following Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default or Servicer Default, (i) at the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, instruct and cause all Obligors of Purchased Receivables to send all Scheduled Payments and other amounts due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee, and cause all ACH debits from an Obligor’s bank account to be remitted to the bank account designated by the Administrative Agent or its designee; and (ii) the Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to send directions to each Obligor to make such payments as directed by the Administrative Agent or to cause such remittances of ACH debits from an Obligor’s bank account to the bank account designated by the Administrative Agent.

(c) Seller Repurchases. The Borrower shall cause the Seller to deposit into the Collection Account the Repurchase Price for all Purchased Receivables repurchased by the Seller pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement on the applicable date for such repurchase as set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, or on the alternative payment date (if any) set forth in and pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.01(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, as long as LendingClub is then acting as Servicer and there is no Default, Event of Default, Seller Default, or Servicer Default that has occurred and is continuing:

(i) the aggregate Repurchase Price due by the Seller for any Collection Period shall not be due until the next date occurring after such Collection Period that the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.05(a),

(ii) the Seller shall only be required to remit the aggregate Repurchase Price for any Collection Period into the Collection Account on such due date identified in the foregoing clause (i) up to the amount of any shortfall in Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Account at such time to make full distributions on the related Settlement Date to all Persons entitled thereto (or to the Reserve Account) pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(i) through (vii),

(iii) the Seller may pay any portion of the aggregate Repurchase Price not required to be remitted into the Collection Account pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii) directly to the Borrower or, at the sole option of the Borrower, such amount may be offset against a distribution of an equal amount to be made by the Borrower to LendingClub with respect to its Equity Interest in the Borrower (as long as, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower will be Solvent after making any such deemed distribution, there will be no Borrowing Base Deficiency or other Event of Default after giving effect thereto, and such deemed distribution complies with all applicable Requirements of Law); and

(iv) at the sole option of the Seller, any Purchased Receivable required to be repurchased pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement may instead by retained by the Borrower as an Excluded Receivable as long as there is no Borrowing Base Deficiency (as determined immediately after such Receivable is categorized as an Excluded Receivable under this subsection).

(d) Reserve Account Transfers. If any Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.05(a) identifies that either (i) there are insufficient Available Funds then on deposit in the Collection Account to make all distributions in full pursuant to Sections 3.02(a)(i) through (vii) on the related Settlement Date, or (ii) after giving effect to all distributions to be made on such Settlement Date, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account will exceed the Required Reserve Account Amount, then on the applicable Settlement Date, prior to making any distributions pursuant to Section 3.02, the Paying Agent (solely in accordance with the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate) shall transfer from the Reserve Account into the Collection Account, the amount of such identified shortfall in Available Funds or identified excess in Reserve Account funds, as the case may be, up to the amount of funds then on deposit in the Reserve Account, for distribution on such Settlement Date as Available Funds pursuant to Section 3.02. On the earlier of the Final Maturity Date and the date on or after the Commitment Termination Date on which the Aggregate Loan Amount has been reduced to zero, all amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be transferred by the Account Bank, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, from the Reserve Account to the Collection Account for distribution as Available Funds pursuant to Section 3.02; provided that if the Reserve Account Termination Date occurs prior to such date, all amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be transferred by the Account Bank, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, from the Reserve Account to the Borrower’s Designated Account.

(e) Reserve Account Supplemental Deposits. If the Required Reserve Account Deposit Amount is positive on any Business Day (after giving effect to any Advances, prepayments, or distributions to be made on such Business Day), the Borrower shall remit to the Paying Agent, for immediate deposit into the Reserve Account, an amount equal to such Required Reserve Account Deposit Amount.

SECTION 3.02 Distributions.

(a) Monthly Distributions. Subject to subsection (b) and (c) of this Section, on each Settlement Date, based on the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate, the Paying Agent shall make the following distributions (without duplication) in the following order of priority (such order of priority, as may be modified by subsection (c) of this Section following an Event of Default, the “Priority of Payments”) to the extent of Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Account (and, if there are insufficient Available Funds to make any distribution under any particular clause in full, pro rata to each Person entitled to a distribution pursuant to such clause, as determined based on the maximum amount that could be distributable to each such Person under such clause):

(v) fifth, to each Lender, pro rata, any amount owed to such Lender (or its Related Person) pursuant to Sections 2.07 through 2.09;

(ix) ninth, to each of the Secured Parties, all other fees, expenses, indemnity payments, and other Obligations due and owing (not paid pursuant to any of the preceding clauses, including amounts not paid under any higher priority as a result of any applicable annual limitation or cap for payments of that type under such higher priority) to such Secured Party by the Borrower; and

(x) tenth, to LendingClub (as a distribution from the Borrower) by deposit to the Borrower’s Designated Account, all remaining Available Funds.

(b) Objections to Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in subsection (a) of this Section, if on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day before any Settlement Date, the Paying Agent and the Servicer have received a written notice from the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent has made a good faith determination that the application of funds provided for in the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate submitted by the Servicer for such Settlement Date does not comply with this Section (which notice shall provide the detailed basis of any such determination), then (i) the Paying Agent shall not make any distributions in accordance with such Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate; and (ii) the Servicer (or, if the Servicer fails to do so, the Administrative Agent) shall provide to the Paying Agent a revised Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of the Administrative Agent, distribution instructions in a form reasonably acceptable to the Paying Agent) that are in compliance with this Section by no later than the Business Day following the Business Day on which such notice from the Administrative Agent has been received by the Servicer on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day. The Paying Agent shall make the distributions set forth in subsection (a) of this Section on the Settlement Date based on such revised Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate (or distribution instructions); provided, that if such revised Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate (or distribution instructions) are received after 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day before the scheduled Settlement Date, then the related “Settlement Date” shall be deemed to be the Business Day following the first Business Day on which such revised Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate (or distribution instructions) has been received by the Paying Agent on or prior to 5:00 p.m. on such Business Day.

(c) Distributions Following an Event of Default. Notwithstanding the terms of subsection (a) of this Section, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) the Collateral Trustee shall deposit the proceeds of all Collateral into the Collection Account (or such other account as has been designated by the Administrative Agent), and (ii) the Paying Agent shall apply all funds on deposit in the Collection Account or the Reserve Account (and the Administrative Agent shall apply all Collections and other Borrower funds on deposit in any such other account) to any outstanding Obligations in any order of priority as directed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion; provided, that, solely as among the Agents, no Agent or other third party shall have a distribution priority that is lower than the priority set forth in subsection (a) above unless such Agent has provided its prior written approval thereof.

SECTION 3.03 Payments Generally.

(a) Payment of Obligations. Except with respect to Obligations to be paid from funds on deposit in the Collection Account, the Borrower shall remit any Obligation due hereunder or under any Transaction Document to the Paying Agent at its designated account not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due in immediately available funds. Any funds received after that time will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day.

(b) Obligations Absolute; No Setoff.

(c) Business Day. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment shall become due or is required to be made on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest, if applicable.

(d) No Tax or Legal Advice. Citigroup Inc., its Affiliates, and their respective employees are not in the business of providing tax or legal advice to any taxpayer outside of Citigroup Inc. and its Affiliates.

Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

SECTION 3.04 Establishment and Maintenance of Accounts.

(a) Collection Account and Reserve Account. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall establish two separate segregated trust accounts (that constitute deposit accounts for purposes of the UCC), each in the name of the Borrower at the Account Bank, which shall be identified by account number in the Account Control Agreement as the “Collection Account” (the “Collection Account”) and the “Reserve Account” (the “Reserve Account”). Each of the Collection Account and the Reserve Account shall be in the sole “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Borrower shall continue to maintain the Collection Account until the Commitments have been terminated and all Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claims have been asserted) have been indefeasibly paid in full (“Payment in Full”). The Borrower shall continue to maintain the Reserve Account until the Reserve Account Termination Date. The Account Bank shall take directions with respect to the Collection Account and the Reserve Account solely from the Collateral Trustee (and the Collateral Trustee hereby agrees to act with respect thereto at the direction of the Administrative Agent); provided, that the Account Bank shall follow the standing instructions expressly set forth in the Account Control Agreement with respect to transfers and distributions to be made by the Paying Agent in accordance herewith (which shall be based made based upon such certificates, notices or other documentation expressly set forth herein as the basis for making any such transfer or distribution hereunder). The Collection Account and the Reserve Account shall be subject at all times (with respect to the Collection Account) or until the Reserve Account Termination Date (with respect to the Reserve Account) to a first-priority perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and each such account shall bear a designation clearly indicating that the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties.

(b) If at any time and in any context whatsoever the Account Bank or Paying Agent receives inconsistent or conflicting instructions with respect to disposition of funds or any other matter with respect to the Reserve Account or the Collection Account, (i) the instructions of the Collateral Trustee shall be controlling over all other instructions of any other Person and the Account Bank and Paying Agent shall be held harmless in following such instructions; and (ii) the Collateral Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to provide instructions with respect to any matter and if the Collateral Trustee declines to resolve a conflict in instructions or provide instructions with respect to any disposition of funds or other activity involving the Reserve Account or the Collection Account, then the instructions of the Administrative Agent shall be controlling over all other instructions of any other Person and the Account Bank and Paying Agent shall be held harmless in following such instructions.

SECTION 3.05 Distribution Reporting; Lender Access to Information.

(a) Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate. No later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second (2^nd) Business Day immediately preceding each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall cause the Servicer to deliver to the Paying Agent, the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly make such information available to the Lenders in accordance with its customary practice) and the Backup Servicer, a copy of the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate executed by an Authorized Officer of the Servicer substantially in the form of Exhibit G, which shall contain: (i) instructions with respect to the specific distributions to be made by the Paying Agent from Available Funds to each Person entitled thereto (or for deposit into the Reserve Account) on the related Settlement Date pursuant to Section 3.02(a); (ii) identification of any amount to be transferred from the Reserve Account into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.01(d); (iii) a certification that, as of such date and as of the Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions and transfers contemplated on such date), each of the Borrower, Seller and Servicer is and will be Solvent and no Event of Default, Default, Seller Default, Servicer Default or event that, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become a Seller Default or a Servicer Default, has occurred or will occur as of such Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions and transfers contemplated on such date), or describing any of the foregoing that has occurred and the steps being taken as a result thereof; (iv) all information required pursuant to the Backup Servicing Agreement or necessary to enable the Backup Servicer to verify the information specified in the Backup Servicing Agreement (if any); (v) attaching a Borrowing Base Certificate, dated and current as of the close of business on the date preceding the delivery date for such Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate set forth above, and showing as of such date and on a pro forma basis as of the Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions, transfers and other activity to occur on such Settlement Date), the calculation of the Eligible Pool Balance, Excess Concentration Amount, and Borrowing Base; (vi) attaching a Data File, and (vi) attaching a detailed Portfolio Report providing (A) collections activity with respect to the Collateral for the immediately preceding Collection Period, (B) a detailed calculation of (1) the Delinquency Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding Collection Period and the three-month average of the Delinquency Ratios as of the last day of the three most recent Collection Periods; (2) the Vintage Loss Percentage (including, without limitation, each component thereof set forth on Schedule II) as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period, (3) the “Cohort Loss Value” determined pursuant to the Model used to calculate the Advance Rate and the other applicable data (including, without limitation, with respect to any applicable adjustments forming part of such Advance Rate calculation) used in such Model (as referred to in Schedule II), and (4) the income verification percentage of Eligible Receivables that are Purchased Receivables as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period; (C) all other information needed by the Agents or Lenders for performance management and regulatory capital review, and (D) a certification as to the truth and accuracy of the foregoing, and that no Amortization Event has occurred (or reasonable detail with respect to any Amortization Event that has occurred); (viii) containing the Supplemental Information and Certification; and (ix) containing such other information as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(d) No Lien on Purchased Assets. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Borrower is party, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, nor compliance with the terms and conditions hereof or thereof, will result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Purchased Receivable or other Purchased Assets except in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(e) No Violation.

(j) No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2016, there is no fact known to the Borrower that has had or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

(k) Title to Receivables and other Property; Attachment, Perfection and Priority.

(i) Immediately prior to the transfer to the Seller, the Originator had good and marketable title to and was the sole legal owner of each Receivable that has become a Purchased Receivable; the Seller validly purchased each such Receivable from the Originator, free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens), pursuant to the Originator Program Documents; the transfer of such Receivables pursuant to the Originator Program Documents constitutes a “true sale” thereof from the Originator to the Seller; and the ownership interest of the Seller in each such Receivable is a valid, perfected, and continuing, first priority Security Interest therein that is effective against creditors of and transferees from the Originator; the Originator has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any Receivable that has become a Purchased Receivable to any Person other than the Seller; all of the foregoing with respect to the Receivables that became Purchased Receivables applies equally to any other Purchased Assets and Collateral that were subject to the Originator Program Documents.

(ii) Immediately prior to the transfer to the Borrower, the Seller had good and marketable title to and was the sole legal owner of each Receivable that has become a Purchased Receivable; the Borrower validly purchased each such Receivable from the Seller, free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens), pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement; the transfer of such Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement constitutes a “true sale” or “true contribution” thereof from the Seller to the Borrower, and the ownership interest of the Borrower in each such Receivable is a valid, perfected, and continuing, first priority Security Interest therein that is effective against creditors of and transferees from the Seller and the Originator; the Seller has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any Purchased Receivable to any Person other than the Borrower; all of the foregoing representations with respect to the Purchased Receivables apply equally to any other Purchased Assets and Collateral that were subject to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

(iii) If any Receivable sold by the Originator to the Seller under the Originator Program Documents or sold by the Seller to the Borrower under the Receivables Purchase Agreement is a payment intangible (as defined in the UCC), the sale thereof is automatically perfected upon the transfer thereof.

(iv) There are no judgment or tax lien filings against the Originator, the Seller or the Borrower; the Originator, the Seller and the Borrower each received all consents and approvals required by the terms of any Receivable Documents governing any Purchased Receivables to the Security Interest granted in (and, in the case of the Originator and the Seller, the sale of) the Purchased Receivables by such Person pursuant to the Transaction Documents.

(v) The Borrower has good and marketable title to, and is the sole owner of, the Purchased Receivables; the Borrower has good and marketable title to, and is the sole owner of, all of its property, all of which is Collateral; the Borrower has the legal right to pledge and convey, and has validly pledged and conveyed, all of its right, title and interest in all of the Purchased Receivables and other Collateral to the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, free and clear of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens; the Security Agreement, Collateral Control Agreement, and the Account Control Agreement, together with the UCC financing statements filed in connection therewith, are effective to create and maintain a valid, perfected, and continuing, first priority Security Interest in and Lien on the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties; appropriate financing statements have been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware against the Borrower in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to perfect the Lien in the portion of the Collateral that can be perfected by filing.

(vi) No effective financing statement naming any Originator, the Seller or the Borrower as “debtor” or “seller” covering any Purchased Receivable or other Collateral is on file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the state of organization of the Originator, or any other jurisdiction, and no such filing has been authorized by the Originator, the Seller, or the Borrower, other than the filings described in clause (vii) hereof.

(vii) Financing statements have been filed in with the Secretary of State of the State of organization of the “debtor” against (A) the Originator, as debtor/seller, in favor of the Seller, as secured party/purchaser; (B) the Seller, as debtor/seller, in favor of the Borrower, as assignor/secured party/purchaser, and assigned to the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as assignee secured party, and (C) the Borrower, as debtor, in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party, that, in each such case, describe or cover the Purchased Receivables and other Purchased Assets as collateral thereunder. All of the foregoing financing statements remain duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of organization of the debtor named therein. No such filing has been assigned to any other Person or terminated. All amendments to the financing statements listed in this paragraph that are necessary (and only such amendments that are necessary) to continue the perfection of the secured party (or assignee secured party, as applicable) listed therein in the Purchased Receivables and other Purchased Assets under the applicable UCC have been made (such as in connection with a debtor name change, if applicable).

(viii) The Account Control Agreement creates a valid and perfected continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Reserve Account (prior to a Reserve Account Termination Date) and the Collection Account in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which security interest is prior to all other Liens. If any Purchased Receivable is evidenced by an electronic instrument, electronic chattel paper, or transferrable record, the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has “control” of the sole authoritative copy thereof, which is held by the Custodian, pursuant to the Collateral Control Agreement in accordance with applicable Electronic Receivables Laws or the UCC, as applicable. No Person other than the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has been given “control” (within the meaning of any applicable Electronic Receivables Laws or the UCC) of any Promissory Note or other Receivables Documents evidencing any Purchased Receivable or any deposit account owned by the Borrower.

(l) Independent Consultation. The Borrower has consulted with its own legal counsel and independent accountants to the extent it has deemed necessary regarding the tax, accounting and regulatory consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is party, and neither the Borrower nor any other LC Group Member is participating in such transactions in reliance on any representations of any Agent, Lender or any Affiliate or counsel of any of them, with respect to tax, accounting, regulatory or any other matters.

(m) Eligible Receivables. All of the Purchased Receivables have been selected from the “Prime” or “Near Prime” programs of Seller and, if included in the Borrowing Base on any Borrower Base Certificate or designated as Eligible Receivables on any Data File, such Purchased Receivables shall be Eligible Receivables as of the date of delivery of such Borrowing Base Certificate (or the date specified thereon). The Borrower shall not make purchases from any program other than the “Prime” or “Near Prime” programs of Seller without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower has (itself or through the Servicer) conducted such due diligence and other review as it considered necessary with respect to the Purchased Receivables and other Collateral to make the representations and warranties herein set forth.

(n) No Fraudulent Conveyance. As of the Closing Date and immediately after giving effect to each Advance, the Borrower is and will be Solvent, does and intends to pay its debts as they mature. The Borrower does not intend to incur, or believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. The Borrower is not in default under any material obligation to pay money to any Person. The Borrower is not contemplating the commencement of Insolvency Proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of the Borrower or any of its assets. The Borrower is not transferring any Collateral with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

SECTION 8.01 Agents.

(a) Appointment. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Paying Agent, Administrative Agent, and Collateral Trustee as its agent and authorizes each such Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the Transaction Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents, on behalf of the Lenders, are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(b) Rights as Lender. The financial institution serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such financial institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with LendingClub or the Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

(c) Specific Duties. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default, Event of Default, Servicer Default, Seller Default, Amortization Event or other similar event has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is required to exercise upon receipt of instructions in writing by the Majority Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default, Event of Default, Servicer Default, Seller Default, DBD Trigger Event, Amortization Event or other similar event unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Transaction Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any conditions precedent, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

(d) Reliance. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent may also, but shall not be required to, rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. In the event that an Agent does not receive a notice, certificate, document or other information required to be delivered to it hereunder by the time set forth for such delivery herein (including, without limitation, receipt by the Paying Agent of the Servicer’s Monthly Settlement Certificate or a Prepayment/Release Notice), or if an Agent requests instructions from a party hereto or the Servicer with respect to any action or omission in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Agent shall be entitled (without incurring any liability therefor) to refrain from taking such action and continue to refrain from acting unless and until the Agent shall have received written instructions from the appropriate Person with respect to such request or from the Administrative Agent (and such Agent shall be held harmless for following the instructions of the Administrative Agent if the applicable Person fails to give such instructions).

(e) Delegation. Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it and no Agent shall be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of, or the supervision of, any sub-agents appointed in a commercially reasonable manner and with due care. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective employees, officers, directors, consultants, or other representatives or agents, and the exculpatory provisions set forth herein shall apply to equally to all of the foregoing Persons.

(f) Force Majeure. No Agent shall incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of such Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future Requirements of Law, any act of God, war or terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or other wire or communication facility).

(g) Resignation. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the other Agents, the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders, and, so long as no Event of Default exists, with the consent of the Borrower shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent to fill such role provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a financial institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution or apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent and other applicable relief. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while acting as Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(i) KYC. To help the U.S. government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person who opens an account, including applicable “Know Your Customer” requirements. The Borrower, on behalf of itself and each other LC Group Member, hereby acknowledges such information disclosure requirements and agrees to comply, and to cause each such other LC Group Member to comply, with all such information disclosure requests from time to time from the Agents.

(j) No Consequential Damages. No party hereto shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including, but not limited to, lost profits) whatsoever of any other party hereto, even if any such party has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to any amounts due with respect to liability for third party damages that may be owed in connection with any indemnification obligation hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

SECTION 8.02 The Collateral Trustee. In addition to and not in limitation of the terms of Section 8.01, the following terms apply to the Collateral Trustee. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, any provisions of the Transaction Documents that empower and/or entitle the Collateral Trustee to take action or refrain from taking action, in each case, with respect to the Collateral, shall not impose or be deemed to impose on the Collateral Trustee an obligation to act independently from the instructions of the Administrative Agent (acting on behalf of the Lenders) or to monitor the contingencies that may give rise to the exercise of such power or entitlement. The Collateral Trustee shall not be required to make any calculation contemplated in this Agreement, is authorized to rely on any calculation performed by the Servicer or the Administrative Agent and shall not have any obligation to verify the accuracy thereof. The Collateral Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any liability (financial or otherwise) in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have grounds to believe in its sole determination that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it. The Collateral Trustee shall not be under any duty to give any property held by it as Collateral Trustee any greater degree of care than it gives its own similar property and shall not be required to invest any funds held hereunder other than deposit of cash Collateral into the Collection Account. As to any fact or matter the manner of ascertainment of which is not specifically described herein, the Collateral Trustee shall be entitled to receive and may for all purposes hereof conclusively rely on a certificate, signed by an officer of any duly authorized Person, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Collateral Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. The Collateral Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers other than for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

The Collateral Trustee shall not have any duty or responsibility in respect of (i) any recording, filing, or depositing of this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument, monitoring or filing any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, the maintenance of any such recording, filing or depositing or any re-recording, re-filing or re-depositing of any thereof, or otherwise monitoring the perfection, continuation of perfection or the sufficiency or validity of any security interest in or related to the Collateral, (ii) the acquisition or maintenance of any insurance or (iii) the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee shall be authorized to, but shall in no event have any duty or responsibility to, file any financing or continuation statements or record any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfect or maintain any security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the Lenders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, unless such Lenders shall have offered to the Collateral Trustee security, indemnity or prefunding satisfactory to the Collateral Trustee, in its sole discretion, against the losses, costs, expenses (including the fees and expenses of its counsel and agents) and liabilities that might be incurred by the Collateral Trustee in compliance with such request, order or direction.

SECTION 8.03 Multiple Roles. It is expressly acknowledged, agreed and consented to that WTNA will be acting in the capacities of Collateral Trustee, Paying Agent and Account Bank. WTNA may, in such multiple capacities, discharge its separate functions fully, without hindrance or regard to conflict of interest principles, duty of loyalty principles or other breach of fiduciary duties to the extent that any such conflict or breach arises from the performance by WTNA of express duties set forth in the Agreement or any other Transaction Document in any of such capacities, all of which defenses, claims or assertions are hereby expressly waived by the parties hereto and any other Person having rights pursuant hereto or thereto. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities, indemnities and benefits afforded to the Collateral Trustee, Account Bank and Paying Agent under this Agreement are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Collateral Trustee, Account Bank and Paying Agent in each Transaction Document to which it is a party or otherwise subject, whether or not specifically set forth therein, and each entity serving as the Collateral Trustee, Account Bank and Paying Agent in each of its capacities hereunder and under any other Transaction Document and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act by the Collateral Trustee, Account Bank and Paying Agent hereunder and under any other Transaction Document, whether or not such rights, privileges, protections, immunities, indemnities or benefits are specifically set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, as the case may be, together with such other rights, privileges, protections, immunities, indemnities and benefits afforded to the applicable party hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

SECTION 8.04 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Transaction Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

By its making of a portion of the Loan, each Lender (including the respective successors and permitted assignees of each Lender), to the extent permitted by law, waives any and all claims against the Collateral Trustee for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Collateral Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Collateral Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Collateral Trustee takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the EEA Resolution Authority with respect to the Loan.

By its making of a portion of the Loan, each Lender (including the respective successors and permitted assignees of each Lender), acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the EEA Resolution Authority, (a) the Collateral Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the terms of this Agreement unless secured or indemnified to its satisfaction, that they may not direct the Collateral Trustee to take any action whatsoever, including without limitation, any challenge to the exercise of a Write-Down and Conversion Powers or a request to call a meeting or take any other action under this Agreement in connection with the exercise of a Write-Down and Conversion Powers unless secured or indemnified to its satisfaction and (b) this Agreement shall not impose any duties upon the Collateral Trustee whatsoever with respect to the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the EEA Resolution Authority.

The Borrower’s and Servicer’s obligations to indemnify the Collateral Trustee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents shall survive the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the EEA Resolution Authority.

The parties hereto agree that they will not amend, change or modify this Section 8.04 and the related rights, immunities, indemnities and protections of the Collateral Trustee without the Collateral Trustee’s written consent.

SECTION 8.05 Limitation on Claims Against Conduit Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, no Conduit Lender shall have any obligation to pay any amount required to be paid by it under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in excess of any amount available to such Conduit Lender after paying or making provision for the payment of its commercial paper notes. Each party hereto hereby agrees that it will not have a “claim” under Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code if and to the extent that any such payment obligation owed to it by a Conduit Lender exceeds the amount available to such Conduit Lender to pay such amount after paying or making provision for the payment of its commercial paper notes.

(b) Restrictions on Borrower Assignments. The Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder, under any other Transaction Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, or any interest herein or therein (voluntarily, by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the satisfaction of the “know your customer” requirements of the Administrative Agent; provided, that the Borrower may transfer or sell Receivables in connection with a Release or as otherwise permitted hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

Nothing expressed herein is intended or shall be construed to give any Person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein; provided, that the Priority of Payments shall inure to the benefit of each related recipient of distributions thereunder.

(d) Collateral Assignments By Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, and without any requirement to comply with any other section hereof or to receive the consent of Borrower or any other Person (except as expressly set forth in this subsection (d)), each Lender may, at any time, pledge, collaterally assign and grant a security interest in and Lien on all or any portion of its rights and interests under this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, its Loan (or any portion thereof) and all rights to receive payments hereunder: (i) to any Federal Reserve Bank or any other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirements of Law, (ii) to any collateral trustee or collateral agent, and (iii) with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (but subject to satisfaction of “know your customer” requirements of the Administrative Agent), to any other Person. No such assignment shall relieve the assigning Lender of any of its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, with respect to any Committed Lender, its Commitment to fund Advances.

(e) Lender Assignments. Subject to subsection (d) of this Section, a Lender (with the consent of the Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and the satisfaction of “know your customer” requirements of the Administrative Agent) may proportionately assign all or any portion of its Commitment (if any) and its Loan, and its rights, interests and obligations as “Lender” under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, (i) if there is no Event of Default: (A) to any Eligible Assignee, collateral agent or collateral trustee, without the consent of Borrower or any other Person (other than the Administrative Agent as set forth above), or (B) otherwise, to (x) any Person (other than a Disqualified Institution) with the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, or (y) to any Disqualified Institution with the consent of the Borrower (in its sole and absolute discretion); and (ii) on or after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, to any Person (whether or not an Eligible Assignee) other than a Disqualified Institution without the consent of the Borrower or any Person (other than the Administrative Agent as set forth above). In connection with any such assignment, such Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to divide and/or credit tranche its Loan (or any portion thereof) in any manner; provided that, subject to Section 7.03 (with respect to any securitization), neither the Borrower nor any other LC Group Member shall be required to take any action in connection therewith, other than, if applicable, with respect to the Borrower’s right to consent to such assignment pursuant to the terms of this Section. Any assignment pursuant to this subsection (e) shall be effective when an Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed by the assignor Lender, assignee Lender and the Administrative Agent has been delivered to the Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Regulatory Requirement has made it unlawful for any Lender to make, hold or maintain any Loan hereunder, or otherwise to perform the transactions contemplated to be performed by it pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, then (1) such Lender shall so notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; and (2) the obligation of such Lender to fund any Advance shall be suspended.

(f) Lender Participations. A Lender, may, at its sole cost and expense and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more entities (“Participants”) (other than a Disqualified Institution) participating interests in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, its Commitment (if any), its Loan, and any other interest of such Lender hereunder or thereunder; provided, that any such participation shall require (i) the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the satisfaction of “know your customer” requirements of the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that no such consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required so long as the agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation provides that such Lender shall retain the sole right (and the applicable Participant shall have no such rights) (A) to enforce its rights under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document and (B) to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. In connection with any such participation, such Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to credit tranche the Loans; provided that, subject to Section 7.03 (with respect to any securitization), neither the Borrower nor any other LC Group Member shall be required to take any action in connection therewith. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the Borrower shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Borrower hereby agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; provided, that such Participant shall only be entitled to such right of set off if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with such Lender the proceeds thereof. The Borrower also each hereby agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.07, 2.08, and 9.06 with respect to its participation in the Loans outstanding from time to time (subject to the requirements and limitations set forth therein); provided, that such Lender and all Participants shall be entitled to receive no greater amount in the aggregate pursuant to such Sections than such Lender would have been entitled to receive had no such transfer occurred. Each Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan or other interest to a Participant shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 9.03, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loan or other Obligations (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Loans, or other Obligations) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such foregoing is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, no Agent (in its capacity as an Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining any Participant Register.

(g) Securities Act. Each Lender shall at all times be either an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act.

SECTION 9.04 Termination; Survival. This Agreement shall terminate only after Payment in Full. All indemnity, confidentiality, nonpetition covenants, and other provisions that by their nature survive termination shall survive termination of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

SECTION 9.05 Transaction Documents; Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a Transaction Document for all purposes hereof, of the Security Agreement and of the other Transaction Documents. This Agreement, together the other Transaction Documents, including the exhibits, schedules and other attachments hereto and thereto, contain a final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all previous oral statements and other writings with respect thereto.
