2.4 Margin Amount Maintenance; Mandatory Repurchases.

(a) If at any time a Margin Deficit shall occur and such Margin Deficit is greater than the Margin Threshold, then the Buyer may by notice to the Sellers (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require the Sellers to transfer to the Buyer or its designee cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit.

(b) Reserved.

(c) If the Buyer delivers a Margin Call to the Sellers on or prior to 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on any Business Day, then the Sellers shall transfer cash to the Buyer no later than 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) that day. In the event the Buyer delivers a Margin Call to the Sellers after 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on any Business Day, the Sellers shall be required to transfer cash no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the subsequent Business Day. The Buyer’s election, in its sole and absolute discretion, not to make a Margin Call at any time there is a Margin Deficit in excess of the Margin Threshold shall not in any way limit or impair its right to make a Margin Call at any time a Margin Deficit in excess of the Margin Threshold exists.

(d) Any cash transferred to the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.04(b) above shall promptly be applied to reduce the Purchase Price related to each Purchased Asset on a pro rata basis (based on the Purchase Price Percentage related to such Purchased Asset).

(e) The Buyer hereby agrees that it will be responsible for calculations of the Asset Value and Repurchase Price of each Purchased Asset in order to determine the amount of payments due to the Buyer under this Repurchase Agreement, including without limitation, pursuant to Section 2 hereof and the Buyer will provide such calculations to the Sellers upon request therefor. The Buyer’s determination of the Asset Value and the Repurchase Amount of each Purchased Asset shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(g) If, after the initial Purchase Date, the Asset Value of the Purchased Assets subject to a Transaction hereunder as of any date of determination is greater than the Aggregate Purchase Price (a “Margin Excess”), then Sellers may, by three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to Buyer (an “Excess Margin Notice”), require the Buyer to transfer cash no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the subsequent Business Day such that the Margin Excess set forth in such Excess Margin Notice is reduced or eliminated and such transferred amount shall be considered part of the Purchase Price under this Repurchase Agreement; provided that, no Default has occurred and is continuing or would exist after such action by Buyer, and provided further that Buyer will not be required to take any action under this provision that (1) would be inconsistent with Buyer’s determination of Asset Value in accordance with this Repurchase Agreement, (2) would cause a Margin Deficit or (3) would cause the aggregate outstanding Repurchase Price to exceed the Maximum Facility Amount.

(a) The Sellers shall, and shall cause each Servicer to, hold for the benefit of, and in trust for, the Buyer all Income, including, without limitation, all Income received by or on behalf of any Seller with respect to the Purchased Assets owned by the Sellers. The Sellers shall cause each Servicer to deposit all such Income received on account of the Purchased Assets serviced or managed by such Servicer, in the applicable Servicer Account no later than two (2) Business Days following receipt.

The Sellers shall cause each Servicer to remit to the Collection Account all Income held in the related Servicer Account no less frequently than once per calendar week as long as there is Income on deposit in the related Servicer Account. All Income shall be held in trust for the Buyer and shall not be commingled with other property of the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers. Funds deposited in any Collection Account during any month shall be held therein, in trust for Buyer, until the next Payment Date.

(i) first, to the Trustee and Custodian any Trustee/Custodian Permitted Fees and Expenses; provided that such Trustee/Custodian Permitted Fees and Expenses shall not exceed $25,000 in any twelve (12) month period;

(ii) second, to the Buyer for the Buyer’s fees and reimbursable expenses then due and payable pursuant to any of the Facility Documents;

(iii) third, to the Buyer for the accrued Price Differential then due and payable;

(iv) fourth, without limiting the rights of the Buyer under Section 2.04 of this Repurchase Agreement, to the Buyer, in the amount of any unpaid Margin Deficit;

(v) fifth, to the Buyer in an amount equal to the Repurchase Price relating to the Purchased Assets for the prior calendar month (the “Paydown Amounts”) and Liquidation Proceeds with respect to Liquidated Assets with respect to Performing Eligible Assets, an amount equal to all Paydown Amounts or Liquidation Proceeds, as applicable, multiplied by the related Purchase Price Percentage for each Eligible Asset based upon the Type of Eligible Asset;

(vi) sixth, subsequent to the occurrence of an Event of Default, one hundred percent (100%) of all Paydown Amounts and Liquidation Proceeds and all other Income will be distributed to the Buyer with respect to each Liquidated Asset;

(vii) seventh, all other Obligations; and

(viii) eighth, to the Sellers.

(b) Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all funds in the Collection Account shall be withdrawn and shall be

applied as determined by Buyer until all Obligations have been paid in full and then, paid to the Sellers.

(c) Paydown Amounts and Liquidation Proceeds will be applied to reduce the Purchase Price of the applicable Purchased Asset to which it applies. If the amount distributed to the Buyer in accordance with the preceding sentence is greater than the Buyer’s Purchase Price Percentage with respect to such Purchased Asset then such excess will be applied to all other Purchased Assets to reduce the Aggregate Purchase Price on a pro rata basis.

2.6 Repurchase Price; Price Differential.

(a) Sellers hereby promise to pay in full on the Termination Date the Aggregate Repurchase Price and all other related Obligations.

(b) The Sellers hereby promise to pay to the Buyer the Price Differential for each Pricing Period at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate for such Pricing Period plus the Applicable Margin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sellers hereby promise to pay to the Buyer interest at the applicable Default Rate on any Repurchase Price of any related Transaction and on any other amount payable by Sellers hereunder that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or by mandatory prepayment or otherwise) for the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date the same is paid in full. Accrued Price Differential shall be payable monthly in arrears on each Payment Date and on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be payable to the Buyer on demand.

(c) It is understood and agreed that, unless and until a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Sellers shall be entitled to the proceeds of the Purchased Assets (other than as expressly set forth in Section 2.05 hereof).

2.7 Optional Repurchases. The Sellers may repurchase Purchased Assets, at any time. With respect to any Purchased Asset, the Repurchase Price paid in respect thereof shall be applied to reduce the Aggregate Repurchase Price until paid in full. If the Sellers intend to repurchase Purchased Assets in whole or in part from a source other than the proceeds of the related Purchased Assets, the Sellers shall give two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Buyer. If such notice is given, the Repurchase Price specified in such notice, shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued Price Differential to such date on the amount prepaid.

2.8 Limitation on Types of Transactions; Illegality. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBOR Rate:

(a) the Buyer determines, which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” in Section 1.01 hereof are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining Pricing Rate as provided herein; or

(b) it becomes unlawful for the Buyer to honor its obligation to enter into or maintain Transactions hereunder using a LIBOR Rate; then the Buyer shall give the Sellers prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Buyer shall be under no obligation to enter into additional Transactions, and the Sellers shall, in their discretion, either repurchase all such Purchased Assets at the Aggregate Repurchase Price as may be outstanding or pay Price Differential at a rate per annum equal to a rate selected by the Buyer which it determines in its sole discretion most closely approximates the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

2.9 Requirements of Law.

(a) If any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to the Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) or any change in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(iii) shall impose on the Buyer any other condition that has an adverse effect on the Buyer;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Buyer, by an amount which the Buyer deems to be material, of entering, continuing or maintaining any Transaction or to reduce any amount due or owing hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Sellers shall promptly pay the Buyer such additional amount or amounts as calculated by the Buyer in good faith as will compensate the Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If the Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to the Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Buyer or any corporation controlling the Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which the Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Buyer to be material, then from time to time, the

Sellers shall promptly pay to the Buyer such additional amount or amounts as calculated by the Buyer in good faith as will compensate the Buyer for such reduction.

(c) If the Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Sellers of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by the Buyer to the Sellers shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(a) Any and all payments by the Sellers under or in respect of this Repurchase Agreement or any other Facility Documents to which each Seller is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless otherwise required by law. If any Seller shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Repurchase Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents to the Buyer, (i) such Seller shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) such Seller shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any applicable Requirement of Law, and (iii) the sum payable by such Seller shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Seller has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.10) the Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Repurchase Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than, in the case of the Buyer, Taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Buyer is organized or of its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of the Buyer having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Repurchase Agreement or any of the other Facility Documents (in which case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes).

(b) In addition, each Seller hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, property or value-added Taxes, or similar Taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Repurchase Agreement or any other Facility Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, any performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Repurchase Agreement or any other Facility Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(c) Each Seller hereby agrees to indemnify the Buyer for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by the Sellers under this Section 2.10 imposed on or paid by the Buyer, and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by the

Sellers provided for in this Section 2.10(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non- Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by any Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.10(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the Buyer makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Sellers (or any Person making such payment on behalf of the Sellers) shall furnish to the Buyer for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) For purposes of this Section 2.10(e), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. Each Buyer (including for avoidance of doubt any assignee, successor or participant) that either (i) is not incorporated under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) has a name that does not include “Incorporated,” “Inc.,” “Corporation,” “Corp.,” “P.C.,” “N.A.,” “National Association,” “insurance company,” or “assurance company” (a “Non-Exempt Buyer”) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Sellers the following properly completed and duly executed documents:

(i) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is not a United States person or is a foreign disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is entitled to provide such form, a complete and executed (x) U.S. Internal Revenue Form W‑8BEN with Part II completed in which the Buyer claims the benefits of a tax treaty with the United States providing for a zero or reduced rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments or (y) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8ECI (or any successor forms thereto); or

(ii) in the case of an individual, (x) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D (a “Section 7 Certificate”) or (y) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑9 (or any successor forms thereto); or

(iii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑9 (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments; or

(iv) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 7 Certificate; or

(v) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all

required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 7 Certificate, and (y) without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (all such owners, “beneficial owners”), the documents that would be provided by each such beneficial owner pursuant to this section if such beneficial owner were the Buyer; provided, however, that no such documents will be required with respect to a beneficial owner to the extent the actual Buyer is determined to be in compliance with the requirements for certification on behalf of its beneficial owner as may be provided in applicable U.S. Treasury regulations, or the requirements of this clause (v) are otherwise determined to be unnecessary, all such determinations under this clause (v) to be made in the sole discretion of the Sellers; provided, however, that the Buyer shall be provided an opportunity to establish such compliance as reasonable; or

(vi) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that would be provided by its beneficial owner pursuant to this Section if such beneficial owner were the Buyer; or

(vii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is not a United States person and (B) is acting in the capacity as an “intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), (x)(i) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8IMY (or any successor form thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 7 Certificate, and (y) if the intermediary is a “non-qualified intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), from each person upon whose behalf the “non-qualified intermediary” is acting the documents that would be provided by each such person pursuant to this Section if each such person were the Buyer.

If the Buyer provided a form pursuant to clause (e)(i)(x) and the form provided by the Buyer at the time the Buyer first becomes a party to this Repurchase Agreement, indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than “Non-Excluded Taxes” (“Excluded Taxes”) and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until the Buyer provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date a Person becomes an assignee, successor or participant to this Repurchase Agreement, the Buyer transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 2.10, then the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts to the extent (and only to the extent), that the Buyer transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non-Excluded Taxes, and the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to additional indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes.

(f) For any period with respect to which the Buyer has failed to provide the Sellers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in Section 2.10(e) (other than (i) if such failure is due to a change in any applicable Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided by the Buyer or (ii) if it is legally inadvisable or

otherwise commercially disadvantageous for the Buyer to deliver such form, certificate or other document), the Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under Section 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(c) with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should the Buyer become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Sellers shall take such steps as the Buyer shall reasonably request, to assist the Buyer in recovering such Non-Excluded Taxes.

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Sellers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Sellers contained in this Section 2.10 shall survive the termination of this Repurchase Agreement. Nothing contained in this Section 2.10 shall require the Buyer to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(h) Each party to this Repurchase Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes, to treat the Repurchase Price as indebtedness of the Sellers that is secured by the Repurchase Assets, and to treat the Purchased Assets as owned by the Sellers for federal income tax purposes in the absence of a Default by the Sellers. All parties to this Repurchase Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by law.

Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance of all agreements of Sellers contained in Facility Documents.

(iv) At any time on the Business Day following notice to Sellers (which notice may be the notice given under subsection (a)(i) of this Section), in the event Sellers have not repurchased all Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets, Buyer may (A) immediately sell, without demand or further notice of any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices as Buyer may deem satisfactory any or all Purchased Assets and the Repurchase Assets subject to such Transactions hereunder and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Sellers hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets, to give Sellers credit for such Purchased Assets and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Assets and Repurchase Assets against the unpaid Aggregate Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Sellers hereunder. The proceeds of any disposition of Purchased Assets and the Repurchase Assets shall be applied as determined by Buyer in its sole discretion.

(v) Each Seller shall be liable to Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, costs and expenses of Buyer in connection with the enforcement of this Repurchase Agreement or any other agreement evidencing a Transaction, whether in action, suit or litigation or bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally, further including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including the costs of internal counsel of Buyer) incurred in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other reasonable out-of-pocket loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction.

(c) Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and each Seller hereby expressly waives any defenses such Seller might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Each Seller also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) such Seller might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies. Each Seller recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

(e) Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Buyer for Sellers’ failure to perform its obligations under this Repurchase Agreement, each Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

Section 10. No Duty of Buyer.

Each Seller covenants to safeguard such Servicing

Records and to deliver them promptly to the Buyer or its designee at the Buyer’s request following the occurrence of an Event of Default.

12.3 Servicing Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Facility Document, the parties hereto may disclose

to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, any fact relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) relating to such federal, state and local tax treatment and that may be relevant to understanding such tax treatment; provided that no Seller may disclose the name of or identifying information with respect to the Buyer or any pricing terms (including, without limitation, the Facility Fee) or other nonpublic business or financial information (including any sublimits and financial covenants) that is unrelated to the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions and is not relevant to understanding the federal, state and local tax treatment of the Transactions, without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The provisions set forth in this Section 23.01 shall survive the termination of this Repurchase Agreement.

23.2 Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything in this Repurchase Agreement to the contrary, each Seller shall comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without limitation, all privacy and data protection law, rules and regulations that are applicable to the Purchased Assets and/or any applicable terms of this Repurchase Agreement (the “Confidential Information”). Each Seller understands that the Confidential Information may contain “nonpublic personal information”, as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act (the “GLB Act”), and each Seller agrees to maintain such nonpublic personal information that it receives hereunder in accordance with the GLB Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws. Each Seller shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the “nonpublic personal information” of the “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are defined in the GLB Act) of the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer which the Buyer holds (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information.

Parts 30, 208, 211, 225, 263, 308, 364, 568 and 570. Upon request, each Seller will provide evidence reasonably satisfactory to allow the Buyer to confirm that each Seller has satisfied its obligations as required under this Section. Without limitation, this may include the Buyer’s review of audits, summaries of test results, and other equivalent evaluations of each Seller. Each Seller shall notify the Buyer immediately following discovery of any breach or compromise of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information of the customers and consumers of the Buyer or any Affiliate of the Buyer provided directly to the Sellers by the Buyer or such Affiliate. Each Seller shall provide such notice to the Buyer by personal delivery, by facsimile with confirmation of receipt, or by overnight courier with confirmation of receipt to the applicable requesting individual.

Section 24. Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Repurchase Agreement and any other Facility Document, then the terms of this Repurchase Agreement shall prevail.

Section 25. Intent.

(a) The parties intend and agree that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Repurchase Assets constitutes “a security agreement or other arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” the Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A), 101(47)(A)(v) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Sellers and Buyer further recognize and intend that this Repurchase Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a).

(b) Buyer’s right to liquidate the Purchased Assets delivered to it in connection with the Transactions hereunder or to accelerate or terminate this Repurchase Agreement or otherwise exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate, accelerate or terminate such Transaction as described in Sections 555, 559 and 561 of the Bankruptcy Code; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Repurchase Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

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

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

(e) This Repurchase Agreement is intended to be a “repurchase agreement” and a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 555, Section 559 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

(f) Each party agrees that this Repurchase Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Repurchase Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same right and capacity.

Section 26. Miscellaneous.

Accordingly, each Seller waives any and all notice of creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by Buyer upon such Seller’s joint and several liability. Each Seller waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon such Seller with respect to the Obligations. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against either Seller, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies hereunder against either Seller or any other Person or against any collateral security for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by Buyer to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from such Seller or any such other Person to realize upon any such collateral security or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of such Seller or any such other Person or any such collateral security, or right of offset, shall not relieve such Seller of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of Buyer against such Seller.
