(v) that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company or the Issuer, a Depositary, if appointed by the Company or the Issuer, or a Paying Agent, at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;

(vi) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the Issuer, the Depositary or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

(vii) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company or the Issuer shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company or the Issuer so that only Notes in minimum denominations of $2,000 shall be purchased); and

Section 3.4 Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control.

(a) If a Change of Control occurs, each Holder shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of principal amount equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). The offer price in any Change of Control Offer shall be payable in cash and shall equal 101% of the aggregate principal amount of any Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any

Change of Control, the Issuer shall mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in the notice (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The Change of Control Payment Date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date the notice is mailed, pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of the Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

(c) The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail, or cause to be transferred by book entry, to each such Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that the new Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuer shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

(d) The Change of Control provisions described in this Section 3.4 shall be applicable whether or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable to any Change of Control Offer. If the provisions of any of the applicable securities laws or securities regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 3.4, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 3.4 by virtue of such compliance.

(e) The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party or the Company makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional

upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of Control Offer. The provisions under the Indenture relating to the Issuer’s obligation to make an offer to repurchase the Notes as a result of a Change of Control may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding.

Section 3.5 Effect of Redemption. Unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, (a) interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date, (b) the Notes shall become due and payable at the Redemption Price and (c) the Notes shall be void and all rights of the Holders in respect of the Notes shall terminate and lapse (other than the right to receive the Redemption Price upon surrender of such Notes but without interest on such Redemption Price). Following the notice of a Redemption, neither the Issuer nor the Trustee shall be required to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes to be redeemed. The redemption provisions of Sections 11.5 and 11.6 of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

Section 3.6 Redemption Procedures. On or prior to the Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay, on the Redemption Date, the aggregate Redemption Price for Notes being redeemed. If the Issuer gives an irrevocable notice of redemption with respect to the Notes pursuant to Section 3.2 hereof in connection with an optional redemption, and the Issuer has paid to the Trustee the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed, then, on the Redemption Date, the Trustee shall irrevocably deposit such funds with the Depositary. The Issuer shall also give the Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price in immediately available funds to the holders of beneficial interests in the Global Notes. If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, then the Redemption Amount shall be payable on the next Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay). Interest to be paid on or before the Redemption Date for any Notes called for Redemption shall be payable to the Holders on the Regular Record Dates for the related Interest Payment Dates. If any Notes called for redemption are not so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Redemption Price shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the Coupon Rate. In exchange for the unredeemed portion of such surrendered Notes, new Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such surrendered Notes shall be issued.

Section 3.7 No Other Redemption. Except as set forth in this Article 3 and Section 7.15, the Notes shall not be redeemable by the Issuer prior to the Maturity Date.

(ii) the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

(iii) in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.

Section 7.6 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets.

(ii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is in the form of Cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this Section 7.7, each of the following shall be deemed to be Cash:

(1) any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any Note Guarantee) that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation or other agreement that releases the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; provided that, if the entity consummating the Asset Sale is a Guarantor, or if the assets to be sold directly or indirectly include Equity Interests of a Guarantor, then only liabilities of a Guarantor that are assumed or forgiven by the transferee shall be included for purposes of this clause (1);

(2) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into Cash within 120 days after the consummation of the Asset Sale, to the extent of the Cash received in that conversion;

(3) except in connection with a Large Asset Sale, any stock or assets of the kind referred to in Section 7.7(c)(iv) or (vi) (including, without limitation, financing and leasing assets and related collateral); and

(4) Notes that are redeemed or repurchased (by exchange offer or otherwise) by the purchaser of the assets in connection with the transaction pursuant to which the Asset Sale is consummated;

provided, however, that if such Asset Sale is made by any Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, then such Cash, stock or assets referred to in Section 7.7(a)(ii)(2) through (4) must have been received by a Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) If the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of include assets or Equity Interests of the Issuer, notwithstanding any provision in the Indenture to the contrary, the Net Proceeds received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Company shall be at least equal to the sum of (i) the amount then outstanding under the Credit Agreement plus (ii) an amount sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes then outstanding pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer assuming all such outstanding Notes were tendered in such an Asset Sale Offer.

(c) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale (other than a Large Asset Sale), the Company (or the applicable Restricted

Subsidiary, as the case may be) may apply such Net Proceeds at its option:

(i) to repay Indebtedness outstanding under Credit Facilities and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(ii) to make one or more offers to the Holders (and, at the option of the Company, the holders of Pari Passu Debt) to purchase Notes (and such other Pari Passu Debt) pursuant to and subject to the conditions applicable to Asset Sale Offers in Section 3.3 herein;

(iii) to repurchase, repay or redeem Pari Passu Debt and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

(iv) to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company;

(v) to make a capital expenditure;

(vi) to acquire (or to provide funding to a Subsidiary of the Company to acquire) other assets (including Portfolio Assets) that are used or useful in a Permitted Business or to otherwise fund a Permitted Business; or

(vii) to fund new originations of Portfolio Assets (including to fund revolver advances and obligations related to letters of credit provided to or on behalf of customers and borrowers under loan or letter of credit facilities in the Ordinary Course of Business) or to provide funding to Subsidiaries of the Company to facilitate the foregoing;

provided that if the Net Proceeds applied to any of the uses set forth in clauses (iv) through (vii) above arise from a Sale of Collateral, then the assets or stock acquired with such Net Proceeds shall be held by a Guarantor (or a direct or indirect Subsidiary of a Guarantor) and pledged as Collateral.

(d) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from a Large Asset Sale, the Company (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) must apply such Net Proceeds:

(i) First, to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement;

(ii) Second, to the extent of the balance of Net Proceeds after application in accordance with Section 7.7(d)(i), to make one or more offers to the Holders and to the holders of the Series A Notes to purchase the Notes and the Series A Notes, pursuant to and subject to the conditions applicable to Asset Sale Offers described in

Section 7.7(f); provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Notes and Series A Notes tendered into such offer exceeds such balance of Net Proceeds, then the Notes shall be purchased on a pro rata basis; and

(iii) Third, to the extent of the balance of Net Proceeds after application in accordance with Section 7.7(d)(i) and (ii), at its option, any of the uses set forth in Section 7.7(c)(iii) through (vii).

(e) Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings of the Company or its Subsidiaries or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. In the case of Section 7.7(c)(iv) and (vi), a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment; provided that (x) the Company uses commercially reasonable efforts to so apply such Net Proceeds as soon as practicable after entering into such binding commitment and such investment is consummated within 450 days after receipt by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale and (y) if such investment is not consummated within the period set forth in subclause (x), the Net Proceeds not so applied shall be deemed to be Excess Proceeds.

(f) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in Section 7.7(c) or (d) above shall constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals or exceeds $100.0 million, within 30 days thereof, the Company or the Issuer shall make an offer to all Holders (an “Asset Sale Offer”) and all holders of other Pari Passu Debt containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and shall be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company or the Issuer may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and other Pari Passu Debt tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, then the Notes and such other Pari Passu Debt shall be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. The Asset Sale Offer shall be made pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof.

Section 7.8 Transactions with Affiliates.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Company involving aggregate consideration in excess of $250.0 million (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

(xiii) any transactions among Subsidiary Guarantors or any transaction with subsidiaries in connection with the refunding, refinancing or replacement of Refinancing Eligible Debt with borrowings under the Credit Agreement;

Section 7.11 Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(a) The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Issuer and CFL) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate Fair Market Value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and shall reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under Section 7.1 hereof or under one or more

clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company. That designation shall only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Any Person that is a Subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(b) Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Company as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date shall be evidenced to the Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of a Board Resolution giving effect to such designation and an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 7.1 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary of the Company would fail to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of the Indenture and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not (or any Liens securing such Indebtedness are not) permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 7.2 hereof (or, in the case of any such Lien, Section 7.3 hereof), the Company shall be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation shall only be permitted if (i) such Indebtedness is (or any Liens securing such Indebtedness are) permitted under Section 7.2 hereof (or, in the case of any such Lien, Section 7.3 hereof), calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and (ii) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

Section 7.12 Payments for Consent. The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or amendment.

Section 7.13 Transfer of Operating Platforms.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall have the right to cause a Platform or Platforms and related Platform Assets to be contributed to CIT Bank (directly from a Subsidiary of the Company (including a Guarantor) or from a Subsidiary of the Company to the Company and then from the Company to CIT Bank) without limit or restriction. For the avoidance of doubt, such transfers and contributions shall not constitute Asset Sales or Restricted Payments, and shall not be subject to the restrictions on Liens or Affiliate Transactions set forth in the Indenture.

(b) Prior to making any Platform Transfer, the Board of Directors of the Company, in consultation with the chief executive officer of the Company, shall have determined that the Platform Transfer is in the best interests of the Company’s

stockholders and would not cause the Company to be unable to pay Indebtedness or other Obligations when due.

Section 7.14 Reports.

(a) Whether or not required by the rules and regulations of the Commission and in lieu of Section 7.4 of the Base Indenture (solely with respect to the Notes), so long as any Notes are Outstanding, the Company shall furnish to the Holders or cause the Trustee to furnish to the Holders, within 15 days after the Company is required to file the same with the Commission:

(i) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Company were required to file such reports; and

(ii) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K if the Company were required to file such reports.

(b) All such reports shall be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports. Each annual report on Form 10-K shall include a report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements by the Company’s certified independent accountants. In addition, the Company shall file a copy of each of the reports referred to in Section 7.14(a)(i) and (ii) above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations applicable to such reports (unless the Commission shall not accept such a filing) and shall post the reports on its website within those time periods.

Section 9.1 Guarantee.

(a) Subject to this Article 9, each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the Obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that:

(i) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other

obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.

If the Issuer fails to make payments when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their Obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the Obligations contained in the Notes and the Indenture.

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, the Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.

(d) Each Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 5 of the Base Indenture (as amended hereby) for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 5 of the Base Indenture (as amended hereby), such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any nonpaying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantee.

Section 9.2 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties

that the Note Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount that shall, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 9, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 9.3 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.4 hereof, no Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person) another Person, other than another Guarantor, unless:

(i) immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

(ii) either:

(1) subject to Section 9.4 hereof, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes by contract or operation of law all the Obligations of that Guarantor under the Indenture, its Note Guarantee and each other Note Document to which the Guarantor is a party pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee; or

(2) the Net Proceeds of such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with (and to the extent required by) the applicable provisions of the Indenture and the Security Documents; and

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then, to the extent permitted by law, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Supplemental Indenture or of the Notes, but this Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.

Section 12.7 Counterparts. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly executed, as of the day and year first written above.
