(ix) If the Assigned Value of a Loan Asset is amended solely as a result of a Value Adjustment Event of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, then no further amendment shall be permitted as a result of such Value Adjustment Event once the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio or Total Leverage Ratio, as applicable, that gave rise to the decrease in the Assigned Value has improved to a level that would not trigger a Value Adjustment Event.

(x) The Assigned Value of any Loan Asset that no longer satisfies the Eligibility Criteria (after giving effect to the first proviso set forth in the lead in paragraph to Schedule II) shall be zero.

The Administrative Agent shall notify the Servicer of any change effected by the Administrative Agent of the Assigned Value of any Loan Asset and, prior to such notification, the Assigned Value of such Loan Asset shall remain unchanged (other than (x) any Loan Asset that no longer satisfies the Eligibility Criteria and has an Assigned Value of zero as a result therefrom and (y) any Loan Asset that has an Assigned Value of 40% pursuant to the operation of clause (d)(i) of this definition prior to the Administrative Agent's determination).

Section 2.01 Advances; I/O Notional Loan.

(a) Advances. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, from time to time from the Closing Date until the end of the Revolving Period, the Borrower may request that the Lenders make Advances (which shall include an interest-only notional advance in respect of which interest will accrue thereon at the I/O Rate) secured by the Collateral, in an aggregate amount up to the Availability as of such date, to the Borrower for the purpose of (x) purchasing Eligible Loan Assets or (y) depositing funds in the Unfunded Exposure Account in an amount up to the Unfunded Exposure Amount of the related Delayed Draw Loan Asset or Revolving Loan (as applicable); provided that, no Lender shall be obligated to make any Advance on or after the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the earlier to occur of the Commitment Termination Date or the Facility Maturity Date. Under no circumstances shall any Lender be required to make any Advance if after giving effect to such Advance and the addition to the Collateral of the Eligible Loan Assets being acquired by the Borrower using the proceeds of such Advance, (i) an Event of Default exists or would result therefrom or an Unmatured Event of Default exists or would result therefrom or (ii) a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists or would result therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall be obligated to provide the Borrower with aggregate funds in connection with an Advance that would exceed such Xxxxxx's unused Commitment then in effect.

(b) Promissory Note. Upon the request of any Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower (in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) evidencing (i) the Advances of such Lender with appropriate insertions as to the date and principal amount, not to exceed such Lender's Commitment or (ii) the I/O Loan of such Lender, with appropriate insertions as to the date and interest amount, not to exceed the I/O Notional Loan Amount allocable to such Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, any note delivered in connection with an I/O Loan shall be a zero principal balance note.

(c) I/O Notional Loans. For the purposes of calculating the accrued interest under the I/O Loan, the Borrower and Lenders hereby agree that on the Closing Date, a loan with a principal amount equal to the I/O Notional Loan Amount shall be deemed to have been advanced to the Borrower by the applicable Lenders under the I/O Loan (each such loan, an "I/O Notional Loan"), and any increase or any decrease, if any, of the I/O Notional Loan Amount of

-67-

the I/O Notional Loans shall be allocated ratably to those Lenders who are the holders of the I/O Loan, solely to the extent that the aggregate Commitments are increased or decreased. No amounts will actually be advanced by any Lender to the Borrower in respect of the I/O Notional Loan and no amount shall be owed by the Borrower to any Lender with respect to any such I/O Notional Loan (other than in respect of Yield at the I/O Rate). The amount of interest payable to a Lender in respect of the I/O Notional Loan shall be calculated with respect to such Lender's I/O Notional Loan Lender Percentage.

Section 2.02 Procedure for Advances.

(a) During the Revolving Period, the Lenders will make Advances on any Business Day at the request of the Borrower, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 2.01 and 2.02 and subject to the provisions of Article III hereof.

(b) For each Advance, the Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable written notice in the form of a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least one (1) Business Day before the Business Day on which the Advance is to be made; provided that, if such Notice of Borrowing is delivered later than 11:00 a.m. on such Business Day, such Notice of Borrowing shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall include a duly completed Borrowing Base Certificate (updated to the date such Advance is requested and giving pro forma effect to the Advance requested and the use of the proceeds thereof) and an updated Loan Asset Schedule, and shall specify:

(i) the proposed aggregate amount of such Advance; provided that the amount of such Advance must be at least equal to $500,000;

(ii) the proposed date of such Advance;

(iii) a representation that all conditions precedent for an Advance described in Article III hereof have been satisfied;

(iv) the amount of cash that will be funded by the Transferor into the Unfunded Exposure Account in connection with any Delayed Draw Loan Asset or Revolving Loan, as applicable, funded by such Advance, if applicable; and

(v) whether such Advance should be remitted to the Principal Collection Account or the Unfunded Exposure Account.

On the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, each Lender shall, in accordance with the Notice of Borrowing, either make available to the Borrower, in same day funds, (x) an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Advance, for deposit by the Collateral Agent into the Principal Collection Account (or, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, otherwise the account which the Borrower has designated in writing) or (y) an amount equal to such Xxxxxx's Pro Rata Share of such Advance, for deposit by the Collateral Agent into the Unfunded Exposure Account, as applicable. For the

-68-

avoidance of doubt, each Advance and related increase in the Advances Outstanding shall be allocated ratably to each Lender in accordance with their respective Lender's Pro Rata Share as in effect before such increase. Any Lender which fails to remit its Pro Rata Share in connection with any Advance in accordance with this Section 2.02 shall constitute a Defaulting Lender, and the Borrower shall have all rights available to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19.

(d) Subject to Section 2.16 and the other terms, conditions, provisions and limitations set forth herein (including, the payment of the Prepayment Premium, as applicable), the Borrower may borrow, repay or prepay and reborrow Advances without any penalty, fee or premium on and after the Closing Date and prior to the end of the Revolving Period.

(e) The obligation of each Lender to remit its Pro Rata Share of any Advance shall be several from that of each other Lender and the failure of any Lender to so make such amount available to the Borrower shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the existence of an Unmatured Event of Default or a Borrowing Base Deficiency), if, on the last day of the Revolving Period, the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is less than the Aggregate Unfunded Exposure Amount, the Borrower shall request an Advance in the amount of such shortfall (the "Unfunded Exposure Amount Shortfall"). Following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (which shall specify the account details of the Unfunded Exposure Account where the funds will be made available), each Lender shall fund its Pro Rata Share of such Unfunded Exposure Amount Shortfall in accordance with Section 2.02(b), notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the Borrower's failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02) other than an Event of Default.

Funds on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account as of any date of determination may be withdrawn to fund draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Delayed Draw Loan Asset or Revolving Loan.

The parties further agree that amounts that may be distributed to the Borrower or the holders of any Equity Interest in the Borrower are fully subordinated and junior to the Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties. In the event the Borrower is subject to a Bankruptcy Event, any claim that the Borrower or the holders of any Equity Interest in the Borrower may have with respect to such distributions shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and notwithstanding any objection to, or rescission of, such filing, be fully subordinate in right of payment to the Obligations of the Borrower to the Secured Parties. The foregoing sentence and the provisions of Section 2.04 shall constitute a "subordination agreement" within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

If such disagreement cannot be resolved within two (2) Business Days, the determination of the Administrative Agent as to such amounts shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto absent manifest error.

-78-

(A) if, immediately prior to such sale, substitution or release, such Loan Asset is subject to a Value Adjustment Event, (i) if such Value Adjustment Event has been cured prior to the repurchase date, such repurchase shall not require the consent of the Administrative Agent, provided, that the Advance Rate with respect to such Loan Asset, and each calculation to be made as of the applicable Cut-Off Date pursuant to the definitions of "Advance Rate" and "Value Adjustment Event", shall instead be determined as of the date of such sale, substitution or release (and not as of the actual Cut-Off Date for such repurchase), and (ii) if such Value Adjustment Event has not been cured, such repurchase shall be subject to the prior consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and the Advance Rate with respect to such Loan Asset, and each calculation pursuant to the definitions of "Advance Rate" and "Value Adjustment Event", shall be determined as of the Cut-Off Date for such repurchase; and

(B) if, immediately prior to such sale, substitution or release, such Loan Asset is not subject to a Value Adjustment Event, (i) if such repurchase is consummated within 90 days of the date of such sale, substitution or release, such repurchase shall not require the consent of the Administrative Agent, provided, that the Advance Rate with respect to such Loan Asset and each calculation to be made as of the applicable Cut-Off Date pursuant to the definitions of "Advance Rate" and "Value Adjustment Event" shall instead be determined as of the date such Loan Asset was sold, substituted or released (and not as of the actual Cut-Off Date for such repurchase), and (ii) if such repurchase is consummated more than 90 days from the date of such sale, substitution or release, then the Advance Rate with respect to such Loan Asset, and each calculation pursuant to the definitions of "Advance Rate" and "Value Adjustment Event", shall be determined as of the Cut-Off Date for such repurchase.

Each Advance and I/O Loan shall accrue interest at the applicable Yield Rate for each day during each applicable Remittance Period. All computations of interest and all computations with respect to the Yield and the Yield Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and the actual number of days elapsed. Each Advance shall accrue interest at the Yield Rate for each day beginning on, and including, the Advance Date with respect to such Advance and ending on, but excluding, the date such Advance is repaid in full. Yield on the I/O Loan due on each Payment Date shall be equal to the applicable interest due

-79-

thereon with respect to each such Payment Date, which Yield shall accrue at the Yield Rate for each day during the Remittance Period.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of Yield or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be. To the extent that Available Collections are insufficient on any Payment Date to satisfy the full amount of any Increased Costs pursuant to Section 2.04(a)(v) and Section 2.04(b)(i), such unpaid amounts shall remain due and owing and shall be payable on the next succeeding Payment Date until repaid in full.

(c) If any Advance requested by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 is not for any reason whatsoever, except as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or failure to fund such Advance on the part of, the Lenders, made or effectuated, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender related thereto, including, any loss (including cost of funds and out-of-pocket expenses but excluding lost profits), cost or expense actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Xxxxxx to fund Advances or maintain the Advances. Any such Lender shall provide to the Borrower documentation setting forth the amounts of any loss, cost or expense referred to in the previous sentence, such documentation to be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.10 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment, fee, insurance charge, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate, participant, successor or assign thereof (each of which shall be an "Affected Party");

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and

(C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(iii) impose on any Affected Party or the London or other applicable offshore interbank market (or, to the extent a different Benchmark applies, the market for such Benchmark) any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Advances or participation therein or the obligation or right of any Lender to make Advances hereunder;

(iv) change the amount of capital maintained or required or requested or directed to be maintained by any Affected Party; or

(v) change the rate for, or the manner in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (or a successor thereto) assesses deposit insurance premiums or similar charges;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to or impose a cost upon such Affected Party of funding or making or maintaining any Advance or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance or otherwise performing its obligations under the Transaction Documents or to increase the cost to such Affected Party or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Party, whether of principal, interest or otherwise or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interest or loans received or held by such Affected Party, then the Borrower will pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Affected Party determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Affected Party's capital or on the capital of Affected Party's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances made by such Affected Party to a level below that which such Affected Party or Affected Party's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Affected Party's policies and the policies of such Affected Party's holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party or Affected Party's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of an Affected Party providing an explanation of the applicable Change in Law and setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Party or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.10, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Borrower shall pay such Affected Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Payment Date pursuant to Section 2.04 occurring at least five (5) Business Days following receipt thereof.

-81-

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of any Affected Party's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Affected Party pursuant to this Section 2.10 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Affected Party notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Affected Party's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred and eighty (180)-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) If at any time the Borrower shall be liable for the payment of any additional amounts in accordance with this Section 2.10), then the Borrower shall have the option to terminate this Agreement (in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16(b) but without the payment of any Prepayment Premium or Breakage Fees); provided, that such option to terminate shall in no event relieve the Borrower of paying any amounts owing pursuant to this Section 2.10 in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.11 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Taxes are required by Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to any Recipient by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the amount payable by the Borrower to such Person will be increased as necessary (the amount of such increase, the "Additional Amount") such that every net payment made under this Agreement after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes (including, any Taxes on such Additional Amount) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent or a Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) The Borrower will indemnify, from funds available to it pursuant to Section 2.04, each Recipient for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.11) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be

-82-

made within ten (10) days from the date a written demand therefor is delivered to the Borrower. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (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 to do so), and (ii) 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 Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.11(e).

(f) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Borrower or by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower of any Taxes to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, will furnish to the Administrative Agent at the applicable address set forth on this Agreement, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

(g) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.11(g)(i), (ii) and (iii)) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) If any Lender is not a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or prior to the date

-83-

such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

b. executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

c. in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-1 to the effect that such Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

d. to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-2 or Exhibit N-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit N-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(ii) If a Lender is a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those

-84-

contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Xxxxxx has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iv) If any Lender is not a United States Tax Person, such Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Xxxxxx becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(v) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.11(g) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender, as the case may be. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified or paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section) it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made or Additional Amounts paid under this Section 2.11 with respect to the Indemnified 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 Section 2.11(h) (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 Section 2.11(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this

-85-

Section 2.11(h) 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 payments or Additional Amounts giving rise to such refund 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.

(i) Each party's obligations under this Section 2.11 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 Transaction Document.

(j) If at any time the Borrower shall be liable for the payment of any Additional Amounts in accordance with this Section 2.11, then the Borrower shall have the option to terminate this Agreement (in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16(b)); provided that such option to terminate shall in no event relieve the Borrower of paying any amounts owing pursuant to this Section 2.11 in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 2.12 Grant of a Security Interest; Collateral Assignment of Agreements.

(a) To secure the prompt and complete payment in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of the Obligations and the performance by the Borrower of all of the covenants and obligations to be performed by it pursuant to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent (collectively, the "Secured Obligations"), the Borrower hereby (i) collaterally assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties and (ii) Grants a security interest to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in all of the Borrower's right, title and interest in, to and under (but none of the obligations under) all of the Collateral, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired by the Borrower, and wherever the same may be located. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral shall not include any Excluded Amounts, and the Borrower does not hereby assign, pledge or Grant a security interest in any such amounts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (y) the exercise by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral, and (z) none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender nor any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender nor any Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrower thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

The foregoing Grant shall, for the purpose of determining the property subject to the Lien of this Agreement, be deemed to include any securities and any investments Granted to the Collateral Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower, whether or not such securities or

-86-

investments satisfy the criteria set forth in the definitions of "Eligible Loan Asset" or "Permitted Investments," as the case may be.

(b) As security for the Secured Obligations, the Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all of the Borrower's right and title to and interest in, to and under (but not any obligations under) the Purchase and Sale Agreement (and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith), the Underlying Instruments related to each Loan Asset, all other agreements, documents and instruments evidencing, securing or guarantying any Loan Asset and all other agreements, documents and instruments related to any of the foregoing but excluding any Excluded Amounts or Retained Interest (the "Assigned Documents"). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, its right to indemnification under the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Borrower confirms that during the existence of an Event of Default and until the Collection Date the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent and upon notice to the Borrower) on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower's rights and remedies under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

The parties hereto agree that such collateral assignment to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall terminate upon the Collection Date.

Section 2.13 Evidence of Debt. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, at its address referred to in Section 12.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and participation agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses and interests of the Lenders (including principal amounts and stated interest on the Advances or stated interest on the I/O Loan, as applicable) (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time during business hours and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Advance or I/O Loan hereunder shall be assigned or sold, in whole or in part without registering such assignment or sale on the Register. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, however, shall not affect Borrower's obligations in respect of any Advance and the I/O Loan.

Section 2.14 Release of Loan Assets. The Lien granted created pursuant to this Agreement shall be automatically released with respect to the following: (a) any Loan Asset (and the Related Asset) sold or substituted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.07 and Section 2.21, as applicable, (b) any Loan Asset (and the Related Asset) with respect to which all amounts have been paid in full by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account and (c) the entire Collateral following the Collection Date. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of the Borrower and at the direction of the Administrative Agent, execute such documents and instruments of release as

-87-

may be prepared by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower, give notice of such release to the Collateral Custodian (in the form of Exhibit J) (unless the Collateral Custodian and Collateral Agent are the same Person) and take other such actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Borrower to effect such release of the Lien created pursuant to this Agreement. Upon receiving such notification by the Collateral Agent as described in the immediately preceding sentence, if applicable, the Collateral Custodian shall deliver the Required Loan Documents to the Borrower.

Section 2.15 Treatment of Amounts Received by the Borrower. Amounts received by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.07 on account of Loan Assets shall be treated as payments of Principal Collections or Interest Collections, as applicable, on Loan Assets hereunder.

Section 2.16 Prepayment; Termination; Reduction.

(a) Except as expressly permitted or required herein, including, any repayment necessary to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency, Advances Outstanding may only be prepaid in whole or in part at the option of the Borrower at any time by delivering a Notice of Reduction (which notice shall include a Borrowing Base Certificate) to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at least one (1) Business Day, or in the case of any prepayment in whole, at least three (3) Business Days, prior to such prepayment. Upon any prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay in full all accrued and unpaid Yield, any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs and all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders related to such prepayment on the next Payment Date; provided that no reduction in Advances Outstanding shall be given effect unless (i) sufficient funds have been remitted to pay all such required amounts in full, as determined by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion and (ii) no event would result from such prepayment which would constitute an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default. The Administrative Agent shall apply amounts received from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) to the payment of any Breakage Fees and to the pro rata reduction of the Advances Outstanding. Any notice relating to any repayment pursuant to this Section 2.16(a) shall be irrevocable.

(b) The Borrower may, at its option and upon three (3) Business Days' prior written notice of such termination or permanent reduction in the form of Exhibit F to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, either (i) terminate this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents upon payment in full of all Advances Outstanding, all accrued and unpaid Yield and Fees, any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs, all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders, payment of the Prepayment Premium pro rata to each Lender and payment of all other Obligations (other than unmatured contingent indemnification obligations), or (ii) permanently reduce in part the Facility Amount upon payment in full, all accrued and unpaid Yield and Unused Fees (pro rata with respect to the portion of the Facility Amount so reduced), any Breakage Fees, Increased Costs, all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and Lenders and the Prepayment Premium pro rata to each Lender. Any Termination/Reduction Notice relating to any reduction or termination pursuant to this Section 2.16(b) shall be irrevocable. The Commitment and I/O Notional Loan Amount of each Lender shall be reduced by an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share

-88-

(prior to giving effect to any reduction of Commitments hereunder) of the aggregate amount of any reduction under this Section 2.16(b).

(c) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Prepayment Premium constitutes additional consideration for the Lenders to enter into this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Prepayment Premium shall be due and payable in connection with any prepayment or repayment in any of the following circumstances: (i) if a Non-Approval Event has occurred and is continuing, (ii) on or after the two (2)-year anniversary of the Closing Date, (iii) if such prepayment or repayment is pursuant to Section 2.10(e), (iv) if the Borrower elects to terminate this Agreement in connection with an assignment by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx pursuant to Section 12.04(a) that is required by Applicable Law and for which the consent of the Borrower was not obtained; provided that if any assignee of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx shall subsequently make an assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(a) that is required by Applicable Law and for which the consent of the Borrower was not obtained, no Prepayment Premium shall be due and payable if the Borrower elects to terminate the Commitments of such assignee or this Agreement; provided, further, that, in connection with a termination of this Agreement, such Prepayment Premium shall continue to be due and payable to any Lender whose Commitments were not assigned without the Borrower's consent, or (v) if the Borrower elects to terminate this Agreement in connection with the replacement of the Benchmark.

Section 2.17 Collections and Allocations.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall promptly identify all Available Collections received in the Collection Account as being on account of Interest Collections or Principal Collections and shall segregate all Interest Collections and Principal Collections and transfer the same to the Interest Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account, respectively. The Servicer shall comply with its obligations specified in Section 5.03(o). If, notwithstanding such compliance, the Servicer receives any collections directly, the Servicer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, any such collections received directly by it (if any) to the Collection Account by the close of business within two (2) Business Days after such Interest Collections and Principal Collections are received and identified by the Servicer; provided that the Servicer shall identify to the Collateral Agent any collections received directly by the Servicer as being on account of Interest Collections or Principal Collections. The Collateral Agent shall further provide to the Servicer a statement as to the amount of Interest Collections and Principal Collections on deposit in the Interest Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account no later than three (3) Business Days after each Determination Date for inclusion in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.08(b). It is understood and agreed that the Servicer shall remain liable for the proper allocation of the aforementioned Interest Collections and Principal Collections into the appropriate accounts.

(b) On the Cut-Off Date with respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer will deposit or will cause the Borrower to deposit into the Collection Account all Available Collections received in respect of Eligible Loan Assets being transferred to and included as part of the Collateral on such date.

-89-

(c) With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (a copy of which will be provided by the Servicer to the Collateral Agent), the Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in their sole discretion.

(d) Prior to the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Servicer shall, pursuant to written instruction (which may be in the form of standing instructions), direct the Collateral Agent to invest, or cause the investment of, funds on deposit in the Controlled Accounts in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, such funds shall be invested in the Standby Investment. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in any Controlled Account shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date, and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or its nominee for the benefit of the Collateral Agent. All income and gain realized from any such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in any Controlled Account shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. The Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account or the Unfunded Exposure Account, as the case may be (with respect to investments made hereunder of funds held therein), an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred, in respect of any such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in any Controlled Account other than with respect to fraud, their own gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Collateral Agent or Account Bank. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any of their respective Affiliates may receive compensation with respect to the Permitted Investments.

(e) Until the Collection Date, neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in any Controlled Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 2.04, Section 2.17(c) or Section 2.18.

Section 2.18 Reinvestment of Principal Collections.

On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth as certified in writing to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, prior to the end of the Revolving Period, the Servicer may, to the extent of any Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Account:

(a) direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw such funds for the purpose of reinvesting in additional Eligible Loan Assets to be Granted hereunder; provided that the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) all conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02 and Section 3.04 have been satisfied;

-90-

(ii) no Event of Default has occurred, or would result from such withdrawal and reinvestment, and no Unmatured Event of Default or Borrowing Base Deficiency exists or would result from such withdrawal and reinvestment;

(iii) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.01, 4.02 and 4.03 hereof shall continue to be correct in all material respects, except to the extent relating to an earlier date (or if such representation and warranty is already qualified by the words "material", "materially" or "Material Adverse Effect", then such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects); and

(iv) delivery of a Disbursement Request and a Borrowing Base Certificate, each executed by the Borrower (or a Responsible Officer of the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower); or

(b) direct the Collateral Agent to withdraw such funds for the purpose of making payments in respect of the Advances Outstanding at such time in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 2.16.

Upon the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in this Section 2.18 (as certified by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent shall withdraw funds from the Principal Collection Account as directed by the Servicer in an amount not to exceed the lesser of (x) the amount requested by the Servicer or, after the delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control which has not been rescinded, as directed by the Administrative Agent, for reinvestment or repayment and (y) the amount on deposit in the Principal Collection Account on such day.

Section 2.19 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the portion of the Advance funded by such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder and the Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders have taken or may have taken any action hereunder; provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders or Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender, as applicable.

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent, and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrower determines (such determination not to be unreasonably withheld) that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and the provisions of clause (a) above shall, from and after such determination, cease to be of further force or effect with respect to such Xxxxxx; provided that no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Xxxxxx having been a Defaulting Lender.

-91-

(i) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender or requests compensation under Section 2.10, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon not less than five (5) Business Days advance notice to the Administrative Agent and (if different) the related Lender, (x) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.04), all of its respective interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent with respect to any assignee that is not already a Lender hereunder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (B) the assignee shall not be an Affiliate of any of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor, (C) such assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to all outstanding Advances funded or maintained by such Lender, together with all accrued interest thereon and all accrued Fees, and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have agreed to, and shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of, the applicable consent, waiver or amendment of the Transaction Documents or (y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the portion of the Advance held by such Lender as of such termination date, without the payment of any penalty, fee or premium. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to exist.

(ii) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 2.19(c)(i) above shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender's applicable Commitment and outstanding portion of the Advance funded by such Lender. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender's Commitment and outstanding portion of the Advance and (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Advance and Commitments so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and under each of the Transaction Documents and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned portion of the Advance and Commitments, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assignment Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance reflecting such replacement within three (3) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance to such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender shall be

-92-

deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance without any action on the part of the Non-Consenting Lender or Defaulting Lender.

(d) In the event that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested any consent, waiver or amendment by any Lender or the Lenders to any matter pursuant to this Agreement, and such consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders, the Lenders or the Required Lenders, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment within five (5) Business Days' written notice to such Lender that such amendment has been agreed to by the Required Lenders shall be deemed a "Non-Consenting Lender." For the avoidance of doubt, (x) Non-Consenting Lender shall not include any Lender that abstains from voting on any consent, waiver or amendment if the vote of such Lender would not be required in order for such consent, waiver or amendment to be approved pursuant to this Agreement (disregarding any other Lender that has so abstained or otherwise not approved such consent, waiver or amendment), and (y) if the Administrative Agent is also a Lender, any failure of the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as Administrative Agent, to grant any consent, waiver or amendment shall not result in the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as a Lender, being deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity is a Non-Consenting Lender and the Borrower has replaced the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19, then the Borrower shall have the right to remove and replace the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.01(h).

Section 2.20 Capital Contributions.

Any member of the Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, make a capital contribution in cash or Loan Assets to the Borrower at any time and for any purpose. All cash contributed to the Borrower shall be treated as Principal Collections, except to the extent that the Servicer specifies to the Collateral Agent that such cash shall constitute Interest Collections and shall be deposited into the Collection Account as designated by the Servicer.

Section 2.21 CLO Takeout.

(a) On any Business Day, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or a portion of the Advances then outstanding and require the Collateral Agent to release its security interest and Lien on the related Loan Assets and Related Assets transferred in connection with a CLO Takeout (which may be effected by way of a distribution or otherwise), subject to the following terms and conditions:

Any Scheduled Payment in respect of which a dishonored check is received shall be deemed not to have been paid.

The Servicer will comply with the Servicing Standard and Applicable Law to the extent it realizes upon such Related Collateral, and employ practices and procedures consistent with the Servicing Standard to enforce all obligations of Obligors when foreclosing upon, repossessing and causing the sale of such Related Collateral at public or private sale in circumstances other than those described in the preceding sentence. The Servicer will remit to the Collection Account the Recoveries received in connection with the sale or disposition of Related Collateral relating to a Defaulted Loan.

During the existence of an Unmatured Event of Default, an Event of Default or a Servicer Default, there shall be no limit on the timing of such inspections and no prior notice will be required before any inspection.

(b) The Borrower and the Servicer, as applicable, shall provide to the Administrative Agent access to the Loan Assets and all other documents regarding the Loan Assets included as part of the Collateral in its possession, in such cases where the Administrative Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the Lenders, or by applicable statutes or regulations, to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge but only (i) upon five (5) Business Days' prior written notice (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default, Event of Default or Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing) and (ii) during normal business hours (which such visit, inspection or audit shall be consolidated with any visit, inspection or audit under Section 5.01(u), this Section 6.11 and Section 11.10). During the existence of an Unmatured Event of Default, an Event of Default or a Servicer Default, there shall be no limit on the timing of such inspections and no prior notice will be required before any inspection. From and after the Closing Date and periodically thereafter at the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may review the Borrower's and the Servicer's collection and administration of the Loan Assets in order to assess compliance by the Servicer with the Servicer's written policies and procedures, as well as this Agreement and may conduct an audit of the Loan Assets and Records in conjunction with such review.

(c) The Borrower shall bear the costs and expenses of all audits and inspections permitted by this Section 6.11 and all other audits, visits and inspections of the Borrower, the Servicer and their Affiliates conducted pursuant to this Agreement (at an annual cost not to exceed $75,000 in the aggregate unless an Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing).

Section 6.12 The Servicer Not to Resign. The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon the Servicer's determination that (a) the performance of its duties hereunder is or becomes impermissible under Applicable Law and (b) there is no reasonable action that the Servicer could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under Applicable Law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced as to clause (a) above by an Opinion of Counsel to

-143-

such effect delivered to the Administrative Agent and each Lender. No such resignation shall become effective until a Replacement Servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02.

Section 6.13 Required Sale Assets. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer shall cause the Borrower to divest all Required Sale Assets within ten (10) Business Days from the date of notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower or the Servicer that such Loan Asset constitutes a Required Sale Asset. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower's divestment of the Required Sale Assets shall not be subject to the terms of Section 2.07 or included in determining the Borrower's compliance with the requirements therein in connection with the sale of any other Loan Asset.

then the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, may, by notice to the Borrower, declare the "Facility Maturity Date" to have occurred; provided that, in the case of any event described in Section 7.01(f) above, the "Facility Maturity Date" shall be deemed to have occurred automatically upon the occurrence of such event.

Without limiting any obligation of the Servicer hereunder, the Borrower confirms and agrees that the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the

-147-

Secured Parties and at the direction of the Administrative Agent (or any designee thereof, including, the Servicer), following an Event of Default, shall, at its option, have the sole right to enforce the Borrower's rights and remedies under each Assigned Document, but without any obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such Assigned Document. If any Event of Default shall have occurred, Applicable Margin shall be increased pursuant to the definition thereof, effective as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default, and shall apply on each day after the occurrence and during the continuation of such Event of Default.

Section 7.02 Additional Remedies of the Administrative Agent.

(a) If, upon the declaration or automatic occurrence of the Facility Maturity Date (including, the date on which the Facility Maturity Date is declared (or is deemed to have occurred automatically) pursuant to Section 7.01), the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances Outstanding, all accrued and unpaid Fees and Yield and any other Obligations are not immediately paid in full, then the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, in addition to all other rights specified hereunder, shall have the right, in its own name and as agent for the Lenders, to immediately sell (at the Borrower's expense) in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if one exists) at such price or prices as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all of the Collateral and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations.

(b) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to sell all of the Collateral on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because the market for the assets constituting the Collateral may not be liquid. Accordingly, the Administrative Agent may elect, in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any of the Collateral, and nothing contained herein shall obligate the Administrative Agent to liquidate any of the Collateral on the date the Administrative Agent or all of the Lenders declares the Advances Outstanding hereunder to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 7.01 or to liquidate all of the Collateral in the same manner or on the same Business Day.

(c) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent proposes to sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, at the request of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the Borrower and the Servicer shall make available to (i) the Administrative Agent, on a timely basis, all information relating to the Collateral subject to sale, including, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant certificates and any other materials requested by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) each prospective bidder, on a timely basis, all reasonable information relating to the Collateral subject to sale, including, copies of any disclosure documents, contracts, financial statements of the applicable Obligors, covenant certificates and any other materials reasonably requested by each such bidder.

-148-

(d) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Collateral Agent, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf, or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) or such court may determine. Pursuant to the UCC, each of the Borrower and the Collateral Agent hereby specifically agrees (x) that it shall not raise any objection to a Secured Party's purchase of the Collateral (through bidding on the obligations or otherwise) and (y) that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in various no action letters promulgated by the SEC staff (1) shall be considered to be a "public" sale for purposes of the UCC and (2) shall be considered to be commercially reasonable notwithstanding that a Secured Party purchases the Collateral at such a sale.

(e) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Collateral pursuant to this Section 7.02 in excess of the Obligations will be applied by the Collateral Agent (as directed by the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04(c), or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(f) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided herein and provided by applicable federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC of any applicable state, to the extent that the UCC is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), all rights and remedies available to the Lenders at law, in equity or under any other agreement between any Lender and the Borrower. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or

-149-

obligated on such indebtedness; provided that no such setoff may be made against any assets of (i) the Transferor with respect to any obligations of the Borrower or (ii) the Borrower with respect to any obligations of the Transferor. The rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, any such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to notify the Borrower and the Collateral Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

(g) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

(h) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby irrevocably appoints, during the continuance of an Event of Default and at all times following the Facility Maturity Date, each of the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at its expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement, including without limitation the following powers: (i) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (ii) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (iii) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition, the Borrower and the Servicer hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto, and (iv) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or pursuant to any Transaction Document. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request.

(i) The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and empowered, during the existence of an Event of Default and at all times following the Facility Maturity Date, on behalf of the Borrower or the Servicer, to endorse the name of the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, upon any check, draft, instrument, receipt, instruction, or other document or agreement or item, coming into the Administrative Agent's possession, and to receive and apply the proceeds therefrom in accordance with the terms hereof. The Administrative Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable power of attorney, which is coupled with an interest, to execute all checks, drafts, receipts, instruments, instructions, or other documents, agreements, or items on behalf of the Borrower or the Transferor, as applicable, either before or after demand of payment on the Obligations but only during the existence of an Event of Default, as shall be deemed by the Administrative Agent to be necessary or advisable, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, to preserve the security interests and Liens in the Collateral or to secure

-150-

the repayment of the Obligations, and the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, in connection with or arising from its exercise of such power of attorney. The application by the Administrative Agent of such funds shall, unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise in writing, be the same as set forth in Section 2.04 hereof.

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.01 Indemnities by the Borrower.

(a) Except for Taxes (other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim) and without limiting any other rights which the Affected Parties, the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian or any of their respective Affiliates may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Affected Parties, the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian and each of their respective Affiliates, assigns, officers, directors, employees and agents (each, an "Indemnified Party" for purposes of this Article VIII) against, and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from, any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as "Indemnified Amounts"), awarded against or actually incurred by such Indemnified Party arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or in respect of any of the Collateral or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or shareholders); provided that Indemnified Amounts shall not be available to an Indemnified Party to the extent that such damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party.

(b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party within ten (10) Business Days following the Administrative Agent's written demand therefor on behalf of the applicable Indemnified Party (and the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amounts). The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Indemnified Party making a request for indemnification under this Section 8.01, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis for and the computations of the Indemnified Amounts with respect to which such indemnification is requested, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

(c) If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 8.01 is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless in

-151-

respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, then the Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Borrower on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(d) If the Borrower has made any payments in respect of Indemnified Amounts to the Administrative Agent on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.01 and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay such amounts collected to the Borrower, without interest.

(e) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 8.01 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, the Servicer, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.02 Indemnities by Servicer.

(a) Without limiting any other rights which any Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts, awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party as a consequence of any acts or omissions of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer and related to any Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any certificate or other written material delivered by the Servicer pursuant hereto or thereto; provided that Indemnified Amounts shall not be available to an Indemnified Party (i) to the extent that such Indemnified Amounts are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party claiming indemnification hereunder or (ii) for any amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan Asset that constitutes recourse for uncollectible amounts.

(b) Any Indemnified Amounts shall be paid by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Servicer of the Administrative Agent's written demand therefor (and the Administrative Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Indemnified Party promptly after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such amounts).

(c) If the Servicer has made any indemnity payments to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.02 and such Indemnified Party thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay such amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest.

-152-

(d) The obligations of the Servicer under this Section 8.02 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, the Borrower, the Account Bank or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Any indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall not be payable from the Collateral.

Section 8.03 Waiver of Certain Claims. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents.

Section 8.04 Legal Proceedings. In the event an Indemnified Party becomes involved in any action, claim, or legal, governmental or administrative proceeding (an "Action") for which it seeks indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the other party or parties against whom it seeks indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") in writing of the nature and particulars of the Action; provided that its failure to do so shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure has a material adverse effect on the Indemnifying Party. Upon written notice to the Indemnified Party acknowledging in writing that the indemnification provided hereunder applies to the Indemnified Party in connection with the Action (subject to the exclusion in the first sentence of Section 8.01, the first sentence of Section 8.02, as applicable), the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of the Action at its expense with counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain separate counsel in connection with the Action, and the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party after the Indemnifying Party has done so; provided that if the Indemnified Party determines in good faith that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the Action, or that the Indemnifying Party is not conducting the defense of the Action in a manner reasonably protective of the interests of the Indemnified Party, the legal fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party; provided further that the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees or expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (and any required local counsel) for such Indemnified Party, which firm (and local counsel, if any) shall be designated in writing to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of the Action, it shall have full control over the conduct of such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall, as requested by the Indemnified Party or its counsel, consult with and keep them informed with respect to the conduct of such defense; provided, further, that, if any Action asserts any liability of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association in its individual capacity, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust

-153-

Company, National Association shall have the right to retain its own counsel, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend itself in such Action. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle an Action without the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party unless such settlement provides for the full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in connection with the Action. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of the Action.

Section 8.05 After-Tax Basis.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 9.01 The Administrative Agent.

(a) Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and xxxxxx further authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint additional agents to act on its behalf and for the benefit of each Lender. Each Lender further authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth in this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects with reasonable care.

(c) Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or

-154-

omitted to be taken by it or them as Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except, subject to Section 9.01(b), for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). Each Secured Party hereby waives any and all claims against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except, subject to Section 9.01(b), for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower or the Transferor), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation and shall not be responsible for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents on the part of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower, the Transferor, or the Servicer; (iv) shall not be responsible for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (v) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by email) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; (vi) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith; and (vii) 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any portion of any Advance and the I/O Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Advance or the I/O Loan, as applicable, shall have been transferred in accordance with this Agreement and all actions required by such section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken.

(d) Actions by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the

-155-

Administrative Agent, shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provision of this Agreement or shall expose the Administrative Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise. In the event the Administrative Agent requests the consent of a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten (10) Business Days of such Person's receipt of such request, then such Lender shall be deemed to have consented to the relevant action.

(e) Notice of Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Default, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender, the Borrower or the Servicer referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Event of Default," "Notice of Unmatured Event of Default" or "Notice of Servicer Default," as applicable. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 9.01(c)) take such action with respect to such Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders acting jointly or as the Administrative Agent shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

(f) Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender and each Secured Party acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Transferor or any of their respective Affiliates or review or approval of any of the Collateral, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender and each Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent's Affiliates, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own evaluation and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender and each Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any of the Administrative Agent's Affiliates, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender and each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Transferor or their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

(g) Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Servicer), ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender, from and against

-156-

any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Share of its related Lender, promptly upon demand for any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, to the extent that such expenses are incurred in the interests of or otherwise in respect of the Lenders hereunder and/or thereunder and to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or the Servicer.

(h) Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time, effective upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, by giving at least five (5) days' written notice thereof to each Lender and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the Lenders acting jointly. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be (i) unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed or (ii) required at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default or after the declaration or automatic occurrence of the Facility Maturity Date). Each Lender agrees that it shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which successor Administrative Agent shall be either (x) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof and have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 or (y) an Affiliate of such a bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

(i) Payments by the Administrative Agent. Unless specifically allocated to a specific Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall be paid by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares in the applicable Advances Outstanding, or if there are no Advances Outstanding in accordance with their related Xxxxxx's most recent Commitments, on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless

-157-

such amounts are received after 12:00 noon on such Business Day, in which case the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay such amounts to each Lender on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lender not later than the following Business Day.

(j) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or prospective Lender is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Advances, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

(k) Return of Certain Payments.

(i) Each Lender (and each participant of any of the foregoing, by its acceptance of a participation interest) hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds (or any portion thereof) received by such Lender (each, a "Payment Recipient") from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a "Payment") and demands the return of such Payment, such Payment Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment as to which such a demand was made. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(ii) Without limitation of clause (a) above, each Payment Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that if such Payment Recipient receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in an amount, or on a date different from the amount and/or date specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a "Payment Notice"), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, it understands and agrees at the time of receipt of such Payment that an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error) with respect to such Payment. Each Payment Recipient agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

(iii) Any Payment required to be returned by a Payment Recipient under this Section shall be made in same day funds in the currency so received, together with

-158-

interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of SOFR and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. Each Payment Recipient hereby agrees that it shall not assert and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives, any right to retain such Payment, and any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment or similar right to any demand by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payment received, including without limitation any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

(iv) The Borrower and each other party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event any Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) the receipt by any Payment Recipient of a Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed to such Lender by the Borrower or any other party hereto (except to the extent that the funds used to make such Payment were received from the Borrower or disbursed from the Collection Account as repayment of such Obligations).

(l) Notices From the Borrower. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives any written notice (including any consent or other approval) from the Borrower pursuant to or in respect of this Agreement that is not otherwise required to be delivered to the Lenders and which the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion is material to the Lenders, the Administrative shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly deliver a copy of such notice to the Lenders.

The Collateral Agent hereby accepts such agency appointment to act as Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until its resignation or removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) Successor Collateral Agent. Upon the Collateral Agent's receipt of a Collateral Agent Termination Notice from the Administrative Agent of the designation of a

-159-

successor Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.05, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will terminate its activities as Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c) Secured Party. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby appoint The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association, in its capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, as their agent for the purposes of perfection of a security interest in the Collateral. The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association, in its capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties set forth in Section 10.02(b).

Section 10.02 Duties of Collateral Agent.

(a) Appointment. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent each hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, National Association to act as Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent xxxxxx accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations with respect thereto set forth herein.

(b) Duties. On or before the initial Advance Date, and until its removal pursuant to Section 10.05, the Collateral Agent shall perform, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations:

(i) The Collateral Agent shall calculate (based upon information provided by the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, upon which the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely) amounts to be remitted pursuant to Section 2.04 to the applicable parties and notify the Servicer and the Administrative Agent in the event of any discrepancy between the Collateral Agent's calculations and the Servicing Report (such dispute to be resolved in accordance with Section 2.05);

(ii) The Collateral Agent shall make payments pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Report or as otherwise directed in accordance with Sections 2.04 or 2.05.

(iii) The Collateral Agent shall provide to the Servicer a copy of all written notices and communications identified as being sent to it in connection with the Loan Assets and the other Collateral held hereunder which it receives from the related Obligor, participating bank and/or agent bank. In no instance shall the Collateral Agent be under any duty or obligation to take any action on behalf of the Servicer in respect of the exercise of any voting or consent rights, or similar actions, unless it receives specific written instructions from the Servicer, prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, or the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, in which event the Collateral Agent shall vote, consent or take such other action in accordance with such instructions.

(iv) As promptly as possible after the Closing Date, and in any event no later than fifteen (15) days after the Closing Date, the Collateral Agent shall create a database (the "Collateral Database") with respect to the Loan Assets held by the Borrower on the

-160-

Closing Date, which Collateral Database shall include all information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loan Assets and the Collateral, on an individual Loan Asset basis and on a portfolio basis. The Collateral Agent shall permit access to the information in the Collateral Database by the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent no later than fifteen (15) days after the Closing Date. Within fifteen (15) days after the Closing Date, the Collateral Agent shall provide a daily report to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in an electronic format and in scope mutually acceptable to the Collateral Agent, the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, that summarizes the material information contained in the Collateral Database, including, without limitation, the Excess Concentration Amount (and details thereof), the Outstanding Balance of the Collateral and balances of the Controlled Accounts. The Collateral Agent shall update the Collateral Database promptly for Loan Assets and Permitted Investments acquired or sold or otherwise disposed of and for any amendments or changes to Loan Asset amounts or interest rates.

(v) The Collateral Agent shall establish the Interest Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account (collectively, the "Collection Account") and the Unfunded Exposure Account in the name of the Borrower subject to the lien and control of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, together with such additional sub-accounts as the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent may determine from time to time are necessary for administrative convenience. In connection with the establishment of such accounts and to help the 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. For a non-individual Person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Collateral Agent will ask for documentation to verify its formation and existence as a legal entity. The Collateral Agent may also ask to see financial statements, licenses, identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent an entity or other relevant documentation.

(vi) The Collateral Agent shall track the receipt and daily allocation of cash to the Interest Collection Account and Principal Collection Account and any withdrawals therefrom and, on each Business Day, provide to the Servicer daily reports reflecting such actions to the Interest Collection Account and Principal Collection Account as of the close of business on the preceding Business Day.

-161-

powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent) as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that the Administrative Agent deems necessary or desirable in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, the execution by the Collateral Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Loan Assets now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. Nothing in this Section 10.02(c) shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Servicer of their respective obligations, or impose the Borrower's or Servicer's obligations on the Collateral Agent to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral in accordance with Section 5.01(u).

(ii) The Administrative Agent may direct the Collateral Agent to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the direction of the Administrative Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder at the request of the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Agent, (x) shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise (unless it has received indemnity which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto). In the event the Collateral Agent requests the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

(iii) Except as expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy available to it under this Agreement unless and until (and to the extent) expressly so directed by the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Collateral Agent, or the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any matter hereunder, including an Event of Default, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral

-162-

Agent has knowledge of such matter or written notice thereof is received by the Collateral Agent.

(d) If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Agent does not receive such instructions within two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions received after such two (2) Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent accountants in performing its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice.

(e) Concurrently herewith, the Administrative Agent directs the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent is authorized to enter into the Control Agreement.

Section 10.04 Collateral Agent Compensation. As compensation for its Collateral Agent activities hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the Collateral Agent Fees and Collateral Agent Expenses from the Borrower as set forth in the Collateral Agent and Collateral Custodian Fee Letter, payable to the extent of funds available therefor pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.04. The Collateral Agent's entitlement to receive the Collateral Agent Fees shall cease on the earlier to occur of: (a) its removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10.05 or (b) the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.05 Collateral Agent Removal. The Collateral Agent may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, each in its sole discretion) by 30 days' notice given in writing to the Collateral Agent (the "Collateral Agent Termination Notice"); provided that, notwithstanding its receipt of a Collateral Agent Termination Notice, the Collateral Agent shall continue to act in such capacity until a successor Collateral Agent has been appointed and has agreed to act as Collateral Agent hereunder; provided further that the Collateral Agent shall continue to receive compensation of its fees and expenses in accordance with Section 10.04 above while so serving as the Collateral Agent prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed.

The Collateral Agent shall in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Administrative Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Collateral Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(i) It is expressly acknowledged by the parties hereto that application and performance by the Collateral Agent of its various duties hereunder (including, recalculations to be performed in respect of the matters contemplated hereby) shall be based upon, and in reliance upon, data, information and notice provided to it by the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and/or any related bank agent, obligor or similar party, and the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any such information or data provided to it by such persons and shall be entitled to update its records (as it may deem necessary or appropriate).

The Bank, in each of its capacities, shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer

-179-

instructions ("Instructions") given pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and delivered using Electronic Means; provided, however, that the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender, as applicable, shall provide to the Bank an incumbency certificate listing officers with authority to provide such Instructions ("Authorized Officers") and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender as applicable, whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent or Lender, as applicable, elects to give the Bank Instructions using Electronic Means and the Bank in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Bank's understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender each understands and agrees that the Bank cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Bank shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Bank have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender shall each be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Bank and that the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Xxxxxx and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent or Lender as applicable. The Bank shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Bank's reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender each agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Bank, including without limitation the risk of the Bank acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Bank and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent and Lender as applicable; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Bank immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures. "Electronic Means" shall mean the following communications methods: e-mail, facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Bank, or another method or system specified by the Bank as available for use in connection with its services hereunder.

Section 12.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

-180-

Section 12.04 Binding Effect; Assignability; Multiple Lenders.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian and their respective successors and permitted assigns. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (unless such assignment is to an Affiliate of a Lender or is otherwise required by Applicable Law), each Lender and their respective successors and assigns may assign, grant a security interest or sell a participation interest in, (i) this Agreement and such Xxxxxx's rights and obligations hereunder and interest herein in whole or in part (including by way of the sale of participation interests therein) and/or (ii) any Advance or the I/O Loan (or portion thereof) to any Person; provided that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred, the Borrower has provided its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such assignment to any Person that is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (but, for the avoidance of doubt, no such consent of the Borrower shall be required for (w) any grant of a security interest or sale of a participation interest to any Person, (x) an assignment of the I/O Loan (or portion thereof) to any Person that is not a Disqualified Institution, (y) an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or (z) an assignment that is required by Applicable Law (provided that notice of any such assignment shall be provided to the Borrower)). Any such assignee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a fully-executed assignment and acceptance agreement in the form of Exhibit K hereto (an "Assignment and Acceptance"). The parties to any such assignment, grant or sale of a participation interest shall execute and deliver to the related Lender for its acceptance and recording in its books and records, such agreement or document as may be satisfactory to such parties and the applicable Lender. None of the Borrower, the Transferor or the Servicer may assign, or permit any Lien to exist upon, any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any Transaction Document or any interest herein or in any Transaction Document without the prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.04, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including rights to payment of principal and interest with respect to the Advances and/or the I/O Notional Loan Amount and interest with respect to the I/O Loan, as applicable) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(d) Upon the effectiveness of any assignment by any Lender of all or any of its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents, any Advance and/or the I/O Loan pursuant to Section 12.04(a) and the delivery to the Administrative Agent of all assignment documentation and the Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall revise Annex A to reflect such assignment.

-181-

(e) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, 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 Advances or other obligations under the Transaction Documents (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 commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Transaction Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed 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, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

Section 12.05 Term of This Agreement. This Agreement, including, the Borrower's representations and covenants set forth in Articles IV and V and the Servicer's representations, covenants and duties set forth in Articles IV, V and VI, shall remain in full force and effect until the Collection Date; provided that the rights and remedies with respect to any breach of any representation and warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower or the Servicer pursuant to Articles III and IV and the indemnification and payment provisions of Article VIII, IX and Article XII and the provisions of Section 2.10, Section 2.11, Section 12.07 and Section 12.09 shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

(b) BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF EACH TRANSACTION DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND

(c) THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION 12.06. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (OTHER THAN THE BANK) WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 12.02.

(e) JURY WAIVER. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (i) WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATING TO (1) THIS AGREEMENT; (2) ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT; OR (3) ANY CONDUCT, ACTS OR OMISSIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OF BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, A LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS, ATTORNEYS OR OTHER AFFILIATES, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE, AND (ii) AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

Section 12.10 Execution in Counterparts; Severability; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 12.11 Characterization of Conveyances Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement.

(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Eligible Loan Assets by the Transferor to the Borrower as contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement be, and be treated for all purposes as, a sale by the Transferor of such Eligible Loan Assets. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Eligible Loan Assets by the Transferor to the Borrower to secure a debt or other obligation of the Transferor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Eligible Loan Assets are held to continue to be property of the Transferor, then the parties hereto agree that: (i) the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement under Applicable Law; (ii) as set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the

-185-

transfer of the Eligible Loan Assets provided for in the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Transferor to the Borrower of a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Transferor's right, title and interest in and to the Eligible Loan Assets and all amounts payable to the holders of the Eligible Loan Assets in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Controlled Accounts, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the possession by the Borrower (or the Collateral Custodian on its behalf) of Loan Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to clause (iv) below, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Borrower for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law. The parties further agree that any assignment of the interest of the Borrower pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Borrower shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if the Purchase and Sale Agreement was deemed to create a security interest in the Eligible Loan Assets, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.

(b) It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Eligible Loan Assets conveyed by the Transferor to the Borrower pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall constitute assets owned by the Borrower and shall not be part of the Transferor's estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Transferor under any bankruptcy or similar law.

(c) The Borrower agrees to treat, and shall cause the Transferor to treat, for all purposes, the transactions effected by the Purchase and Sale Agreement as sales of assets to the Borrower. The Borrower and the Servicer each hereby agree to cause the Transferor to reflect in the Transferor's financial records and to include a note in the annual and quarterly financial statements of the Parent indicating that assets sold to the Borrower under the Purchase and Sale Agreement are owned by the Borrower that is consolidated in the Transferor's financial statements, the creditors of the Borrower have received security interests in such assets and such assets are not intended to be available to the creditors of the Transferor (or any other affiliate of the Transferor).

Section 12.12 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the Account Bank, the Transferor and the Collateral Custodian shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement (and the terms thereof) and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the Loan Assets, the Obligors and the Borrower and the Servicer hereto

It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance with this Section 12.12(a) include, all fees and other pricing terms, and all Events of Default, Servicer Defaults, and priority of payment provisions.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower and the Servicer each hereby consents to the disclosure of any nonpublic information with respect to it (i) to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian by each other, or (ii) by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them provided such Person agrees to hold such information confidential, and to any officers, directors, employees, outside accountants and attorneys of any of the foregoing, provided each such Person is informed of the confidential nature of such information. In addition, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank and the Collateral Custodian may disclose any such nonpublic information as required pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, direction, request or order of any judicial, administrative or regulatory authority or proceedings (whether or not having the force or effect of law).

-187-

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all information that is or becomes publicly known (after such information becomes publicly known); (ii) disclosure of any and all information (A) if required to do so by any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, (B) as requested by any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any aspects of the Lenders', the Administrative Agent's, the Collateral Agent's, the Account Bank's or the Collateral Custodian's business or that of their affiliates; provided that (other than in the case of routine disclosures) the disclosing party will use reasonable efforts to maintain confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by law and only if reasonably practicable), if a Responsible Officer of the disclosing party has actual knowledge thereof, notify the Servicer of its intention to make any such disclosure prior to making any such disclosure, (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or arbitration to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Account Bank or an officer, director, employer, shareholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing is a party; provided that (other than in the case of routine disclosures) the disclosing party will use reasonable efforts to maintain confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by law and only if reasonably practicable) notify the Servicer of its intention to make any such disclosure prior to making any such disclosure, (D) in any preliminary or final offering circular, registration statement or contract or other document approved in advance by the Borrower, the Servicer or the Transferor, (E) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, provided, that the disclosing party advises such recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed or such recipient is otherwise subject to an obligation of confidentiality, or (F) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian having a need to know the same, provided that the disclosing party advises such recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed; or (iii) any other disclosure authorized by the Borrower, Servicer or the Transferor.

bank and the collateral custodian, and the Lenders from time to time party thereto. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Loan and Servicing Agreement.

The undersigned acknowledges that the Administrative Agent has provided notice (a "BBD Notice") to the Borrower indicating that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists as of [Date] and that the amount required under the Loan and Servicing Agreement to cure the Borrowing Base Deficiency is $[_______] (the "Equity Cure Amount"). In connection therewith, the undersigned hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Administrative Agent as follows (it being understood that the failure of any of the following to be true, or the failure to deliver any item required as set forth below, shall each constitute an Event of Default to the extent set forth under the Loan and Servicing Agreement):

Either (A) the Parent intends to contribute such Equity Cure Amount (in combination with the other cures thereof permitted under Section 2.06(a) of the Loan and Servicing Agreement) directly or indirectly to the Borrower in the form of an additional capital contribution as follows:

(1) The limited partners of the Parent have uncalled capital commitments ("Uncalled Capital") that are fully available for the purpose of curing such Borrowing Base Deficiency in an amount not less than 100% of the Equity Cure Amount (in combination with the other cures thereof permitted under Section 2.06(a) of the Loan and Servicing Agreement), as evidenced in the attached statement of aggregate uncalled capital for its limited partners set forth on Schedule I hereto, which statement the undersigned represents to be true and accurate, and such Uncalled Capital has not been identified for any other use.

(2) The Parent has issued an irrevocable call for capital in an amount not less than the Equity Cure Amount (in combination with the other cures thereof permitted under Section 2.06(a) of the Loan and Servicing Agreement), and such instrument is attached hereto as Schedule II. The Parent's limited partners' obligation to fund such call for capital constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such limited partners enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms (except to the extent limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws generally affecting creditors' rights and by equitable principles); and/or

(B) the Parent has other sources of funds (including from proceeds of borrowings under one or more credit facilities) sufficient to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency (as evidenced in the attached credit agreement or other agreement (or excerpts thereof which may be redacted as reasonably necessary to permit disclosure thereof, subject to confidentiality obligations, but which shall provide sufficient evidence of such other sources of funds), reporting packages or financial statements set forth on Schedule III hereto with respect to each such source of funds and the availability of funds thereunder) and the proceeds of such funds will be contributed directly or indirectly to the Borrower.

Exhibit P-2

Not later than [_______],7 such contribution shall be made in an amount not less than the Equity Cure Amount (in combination with the other cures thereof permitted under Section 2.06(a) of the Loan and Servicing Agreement).

In addition, without limitation of the foregoing, the undersigned acknowledges that if on or after the date hereof and prior to the undersigned making or causing to be made the payment referred to in preceding paragraph above, the Administrative Agent provides notice (a "Subsequent BBD Notice") to the undersigned indicating that the then-current Borrowing Base Deficiency is greater than the amount indicated in the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in the second paragraph hereof (taking into account the amount initially indicated), the provisions of Section 2.06 shall be applicable to such subsequent Borrowing Base Deficiency.
