(b) Each Advance shall be made upon delivery of an irrevocable request for an Advance from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent, with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian, (i) with respect to a proposed Foreign Currency Loan Advance, no later than 2:00 p.m. three Business Days’ prior to the proposed date of such Advance, and (ii) with respect to all other proposed Advances, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately prior to (or by 10:00 am on the same Business Day of) the proposed date of such Advance (which shall be a Business Day), in the form of a Notice of Borrowing; provided that the Borrower shall not request same day funding more than once in any Month. 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 shall specify:

(i) the aggregate amount of such Advance, which amount shall not cause the Advances Outstanding to exceed the Borrowing Base; provided that the amount of such Advance must be at least equal to $500,000 (or its Dollar Equivalent);

(ii) the proposed date of such Advance and, if such Advance is to be a Fixed LIBOR Advance, the related Fixed Period (it being understood that if notice of such Advance is not provided at least two Business Days prior to the proposed Cut-Off Date, then such Advance shall be a Daily LIBOR Advance for two Business Days following which the Advance shall convert to a Fixed LIBOR Advance);

(iii) the proposed Currency of such Advance;

(iv) during the continuance of any CQT Non-Qualification Period and with respect to an Advance proposed to be funded in connection with the addition of a Loan Asset to the Collateral Portfolio (whether by sale or contribution), a written certification of the Servicer demonstrating that such Advance results in Collateral Quality Improvement; and

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

No later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of each Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, (i) on the Closing Date and during the Conforming Funding Period, each Conduit Lender may, or the related Liquidity Banks and Institutional Lender shall, in accordance with instructions received by the Lender Agent for such Lenders from the Borrower, make available to the Borrower, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment

-69-

Percentage of such Advance, by payment into the account which the Borrower has designated in writing, and (ii) during the Delayed Funding Period, each Conduit Lender may, or the related Liquidity Banks and Institutional Lender shall (in each case, other than Delayed Funding Lenders and other members of a Delayed Funding Lender Group), in accordance with instructions received by the Lender Agent for such Lenders from the Borrower, make available to the Borrower, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance, by payment into the account which the Borrower has designated in writing.

(d) Subject to Section 2.18 and the other terms, conditions, provisions and limitations set forth herein, 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; provided, that the repayment of any Foreign Currency Advance shall be made solely in the related Foreign Currency.

(e) A determination by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Agent of the existence of any Eurodollar Disruption Event (any such determination to be communicated to the Borrower by written notice from the Administrative Agent or such Lender Agent promptly after the Administrative Agent or such Lender Agent learns of such event), or of the effect of any Eurodollar Disruption Event on its making or maintaining Advances at LIBOR, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(g) Special Provisions for Delayed Fundings.

(i) At any time, five Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Servicer of a Delayed Funding Certificate from a Lender Agent, the related Liquidity Bank or Institutional Lender holding a Commitment shall be deemed a “Delayed Funding Lender” and its related Lender Group shall be deemed a “Delayed Funding Lender Group”. Such designation shall remain in effect until such time as the related Delayed Funding Lender Agent issues a written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer withdrawing such designation (a “Delayed Funding De-Designation Notice”) which notice shall be effective as of the date of such notice or as of such later date specified therein (the “Delayed Funding De-Designation Date”). Effective as of the Delayed Funding De-Designation Date, each Committed Lender that is a Delayed Funding Lender, and each related Lender Group that is a Delayed Funding Lender Group, shall cease to be a Delayed Funding Lender or a Delayed Funding Lender Group, as applicable and shall, for all purposes other than pursuant to the proviso hereto, be deemed to be a Conforming Lender and a Conforming Lender Group, as applicable; provided that in connection with any Advance outstanding as of the Delayed Funding De-Designation Date for which any Delayed Funding Lender has not, as of such date, paid its Delayed Funding Amounts, such

-70-

Delayed Funding De-Designation Date shall be deemed to be the Delayed Funding Settlement Date for such Advance and such Delayed Funding Lender shall comply with its obligations pursuant to Section 2.02(g)(ii) and Section 2.02(g)(iii) for such Delayed Funding Settlement Date. The Servicer and the Borrower hereby acknowledge and agree that delivery of a Delayed Funding De-Designation Notice may give rise to liability for increased costs and expenses under Section 2.10 and the reimbursement or compensation of such increased costs and expenses shall be governed by the terms of Section 2.10.

(ii) On each Delayed Funding Settlement Date, each Delayed Funding Lender shall fund to the Administrative Agent the Delayed Funding Advance Amount, which amount (1) if such Delayed Funding Settlement Date occurs prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or Servicer Termination Date hereunder, shall be distributed to the Borrower as an Advance hereunder, and (2) if such Delayed Funding Settlement Date occurs following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or Servicer Termination Date hereunder, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for distribution on the same Business Day to the Lenders (including such Delayed Funding Lender) in accordance with their Pro Rata Share under clause (1)(ii) of such defined term (calculated presuming that all Delayed Funding Amounts of any other Delayed Funding Lender Groups have been fully funded); provided that such Delayed Funding Lender shall not fund to the Administrative Agent and shall instead net out of its ratable portion of the Delayed Funding Amounts any amounts that it is entitled to receive from the Administrative Agent under this clause (g)(ii)(2); provided, in no event shall any such payment reduce the Advances Outstanding and related Obligations of any Lender or Lender Group below zero. Upon the payment of the Delayed Funding Amounts in accordance with the provisions of clause (ii)(2) above and without any further action on the part of such Delayed Funding Lender making such payment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, the Delayed Funding Lender making such payment will have acquired, and each Lender receiving a distribution of a portion of such payment will have granted to such Delayed Funding Lender, without recourse or warranty, its portions of the Advances Outstanding that were reduced by application of the distribution of such Delayed Funding Amounts by the Administrative Agent. The Advances Outstanding owing to each Lender member of a Lender Group other than such Delayed Funding Lender’s Delayed Funding Lender Group shall be reduced by the amount of any portion of such payment received by such Lender and the Advances Outstanding owing to the Delayed Funding Lender making such payment shall be increased by all amounts so paid such that the Aggregate Advances Outstanding immediately prior to such payment and distribution shall be unchanged and shall continue to equal to the Aggregate Advances Outstanding immediately following such payment and distribution.

(iii) The obligation of each Delayed Funding Lender to fund the Delayed Funding Advance Amount on the related Delayed Funding Settlement Date is subject to any valid and timely claims of a Delayed Funding Lender under clause (iv) below but is otherwise absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including (1) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Delayed Funding Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, the other Lenders, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of an Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default; (3) the termination

-71-

of the Revolving Period, (4) the reduction or termination of any Commitments; or (5) any other occurrence, event, or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing (in each case, so long as such allocation, when added to the Drawn Amount of such Delayed Funding Lender does not exceed such Lender’s Commitment). The funding or failure to fund any Delayed Funding Advance Amount will not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay all Advances, together with interest as provided in this Agreement.

(iv) A Delayed Funding Lender may not object to its funding obligation of any Delayed Funding Amounts under Section 2.01(g) on the basis of the failure of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 2.01 and Article III as of the Delayed Funding Settlement Date so long as all such conditions were satisfied as of the related Delayed Funding Date; provided that the absolute and unconditional funding obligations of a Delayed Funding Lender of Delayed Funding Amounts set forth in this Section 2.01 do not constitute a waiver of any rights of such Delayed Funding Lender or of rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including such Delayed Funding Lender) against the Borrower, in each case, as set forth hereunder.

(v) Each Delayed Funding Lender acknowledges that the Conforming Lender Groups have relied on the obligation of the Delayed Funding Lender to fund the Delayed Funding Amounts in making Advances hereunder and is an intended beneficiary of such obligation.

Section 2.03 Determination of Yield; Conversions of Advances; Limitations on Fixed LIBOR Advances. (a) The Administrative Agent (and the Lender Agents with respect to the Conduit Lenders in their respective Lender Groups) shall determine the Yield for the Advances (including unpaid Yield related thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment Date) to be paid by the Borrower on each Payment Date for the related Remittance Period and the Administrative Agent shall advise the Servicer and the Lender Agents thereof no later than the Business Day prior to the Reporting Date.

(b) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Fixed LIBOR Advances to Daily LIBOR Advances by giving the Administrative Agent and Lender Agents prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day two Business Days prior to the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Fixed LIBOR Advances may only be made on the last day of a Fixed Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Daily LIBOR Advances to Fixed LIBOR Advances by giving the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 p.m. on the second Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Fixed Period therefor); provided that no Daily LIBOR Advances may be converted into Fixed LIBOR Advances after the earliest to occur of an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default or the Final Maturity Date.

-72-

(c) Any Fixed LIBOR Advance may be continued in whole or in part (including by combining with other Fixed LIBOR Advances that have Fixed Periods expiring on the same date or with Daily LIBOR Advances) upon the expiration of the then current Fixed Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent and Lender Agents not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date that is two Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Fixed Period setting forth the length of the next Fixed Period to be applicable to such Fixed LIBOR Advance; provided that no Fixed LIBOR Advance may be continued after the earliest to occur of an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default or the Final Maturity Date; provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Advance shall be automatically converted to a Daily LIBOR Advance on the last day of such then expiring Fixed Period.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Fixed LIBOR Advances and all selections of Fixed Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of Fixed LIBOR Advances allocated to each Fixed Period shall be equal to $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Fixed Periods shall be outstanding at any one time.

(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.

-84-

(c) If any Advance requested by the Borrower and approved by the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents 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, the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, 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 (other than any such loss, cost or expense solely due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct or failure to fund such Advance on the part of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction), including, without limitation, any loss (including cost of funds and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses but excluding lost profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender 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, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change that becomes effective following the date hereof (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation, administration or application following the date hereof of any Applicable Law (including, without limitation, any law or regulation resulting in any interest payments paid to any Lender under this Agreement being subject to any Tax, except for Taxes on the overall net income of such Lender), in each case whether foreign or domestic, including under Basel III or Xxxx-Xxxxx, or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request following the date hereof from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), including under Basel III or Xxxx-Xxxxx, there shall be any increase in the cost to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank or any Affiliate, participant, successor or assign thereof (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Advance (or any reduction of the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest, fee, compensation or otherwise) to any Affected Party hereunder), as the case may be, or there shall be any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement, under any other Transaction Document or any Liquidity Agreement, the Borrower shall, from time to time, after written demand by the Administrative Agent (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), on behalf of such Affected Party, pay to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Affected Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Affected Party for such increased costs or reduced payments within 10 days after such demand; provided that the amounts payable under this Section 2.10 shall be without duplication of amounts payable under Section 2.11 and shall not include any Excluded Taxes.

-85-

(b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change that becomes effective following the date hereof in or in the interpretation, administration or application following the date hereof of any law, guideline, rule or regulation, directive or request or (ii) the compliance by any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request following the date hereof, from any central bank, any Governmental Authority or agency, including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, including under Basel III or Xxxx-Xxxxx, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or any related document or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to time, after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Affected Party such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, any increase in cost or reduction in Yield with respect to any Affected Party caused by regulatory capital allocation adjustments due to FAS 166, 167 and subsequent statements and interpretations shall constitute a circumstance on which such Affected Party may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 2.10.

(c) If as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.10, (i) any Affected Party is required to compensate a bank or other financial institution providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such Affected Party in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Advances hereunder, then within ten days after demand by such Affected Party, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Affected Party for any amounts payable or paid by it, or (ii) the Administrative Agent (whether in its own judgment or at the request of the Majority Lenders) deems it necessary or appropriate to obtain a credit rating on the Revolving Notes, the Borrower shall (x) provide (as promptly as possible and in any event no later than 60 days following receipt by the Borrower of such reasonable request) at least one Rating Agency designated by the Administrative Agent with all information and documents reasonably requested by such Rating Agency (to the extent such information or documents are in the possession of or reasonably available to the Borrower) and otherwise cooperate with such Rating Agency’s review of the Transaction Documents and transactions contemplated hereby, and (y) pay the costs and expenses of such Rating Agency in respect of the rating of the Revolving Notes.

(d) For avoidance of doubt, in connection with the interpretation of clause (a) and (b) of this Section 2.10, any regulatory changes, rules, guidelines or directives under or issued in connection with Basel III or Xxxx-Xxxxx will be considered as a “change” hereunder, and will not be treated as having been adopted or having come into effect before the date hereof.

(e) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.10, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Affected Party making a claim under this Section 2.10, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of such additional or increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that no Lender shall be requested to disclose confidential or price sensitive information or any other information, to the extent prohibited by Applicable Law.

-86-

(f) 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 such Affected Party’s right to demand or receive such compensation.

Section 2.11 Taxes. (a) All payments made by an Obligor in respect of a Loan Asset and all payments made by the Borrower or made by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Indemnified Party, then the amount payable to such Person will be increased (the amount of such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement after withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes on such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made. The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrower or Servicer under this Agreement will not, however, apply with respect to Excluded Taxes.

(b) The Borrower will indemnify from funds available to it pursuant to Section 2.04 (and to the extent the funds available for indemnification provided by the Borrower are insufficient the Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, will indemnify) each Indemnified Party for the full amount of Taxes payable by such Person in respect of Additional Amounts and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date a written invoice therefor is delivered to the Borrower.

(c) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower or by the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower of any Taxes, the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, will furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents at the applicable address set forth on this Agreement, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

(d) Each Lender (including any assignee thereof) that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Servicer two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of an applicable tax treaty), W-8IMY, W-8EXP or W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit R to the effect that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of U.S. taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in every case with any required attachments and properly completed and duly executed and claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement. In addition, each Lender (including any assignee thereof) that is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Servicer two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, properly completed and duly executed and claiming complete exemption, or shall otherwise establish an exemption, from U.S. backup withholding. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon receiving notice of the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Each Lender shall promptly notify

-87-

the Borrower and the Servicer at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower or the Servicer (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower and the Servicer, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Servicer, such properly completed and executed documentation or information prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate (or otherwise permit the Borrower and the Servicer to determine the applicable rate of withholding), provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender.

(f) If any Lender determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes for which it was indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.11 or with respect to which the Borrower or the Servicer has paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11 or Section 2.10, it shall pay to the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or the Servicer under this Section 2.11 or Section 2.10 with respect to the Taxes or Additional Amounts giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including additional Taxes, if any) of such Lender, as the case may be, incurred in obtaining such refund, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund)

(g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower and the Servicer hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and the Servicer contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.12 Collateral Assignment of Agreements. 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 Contribution Agreement (and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith), the Loan Agreements 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 Article IX of the Contribution Agreement. The Borrower confirms that until the Collection Date the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) on behalf of the Secured Parties shall have the sole right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Contribution 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.

-88-

Section 2.13 Grant of a Security Interest. To secure the prompt, complete and indefeasible 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, the Borrower hereby (a) collaterally assigns and pledges to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and (b) 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 Portfolio, 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 Portfolio 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, (a) the Borrower shall remain liable under the Collateral Portfolio 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, (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral Portfolio shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral Portfolio, and (c) none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender (nor its successors and assigns), any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank nor any Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral Portfolio by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender (nor its successors and assigns), any Lender Agent, any Liquidity Bank 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.

Section 2.14 Evidence of Debt. The Administrative Agent shall maintain, solely for this purpose as the agent of the Borrower, at its address referred to in Section 12.02 a copy of each assignment and acceptance agreement 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 (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Lender Agent 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 Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. If a Lender sells a participation, the Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 Loan or other obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no 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 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 or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Administrative Agent 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.

-89-

Section 2.15 Survival of Representations and Warranties. It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.01, 4.02 and 4.03 are made and are true and correct on the date of this Agreement and on each Cut-Off Date unless such representations and warranties are made as of a specific date.

Section 2.16 Release of Loan Assets. (a) The Borrower may obtain the release of (i) any Loan Asset (and the related Portfolio Assets pertaining thereto) removed from the Collateral Portfolio pursuant to a Loan Asset Dividend or sold or substituted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 2.07 and any Portfolio Assets pertaining to such Loan Asset and (ii) any Collateral Portfolio that expires by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid in full by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account. 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 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 M) (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.

(b) Promptly after the Collection Date has occurred, the Collateral Agent (and to the extent that the Borrower identifies Liens held by such Persons, any Lender, Lender Agent or the Administrative Agent), at the direction of the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrower, for no consideration but at the sole expense of the Borrower, its remaining interests in the Portfolio Assets, free and clear of any Lien resulting solely from an act by the Collateral Agent (and to the extent that the Borrower identifies Liens held by such Persons, any Lender, Lender Agent or the Administrative Agent), but without any other representation or warranty, express or implied, by or recourse against the Collateral Agent, any Lender, any Lender Agent or the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.17 Treatment of Amounts Deposited by the Borrower. Amounts deposited by the Borrower in the Collection Account 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 2.18 Mandatory and Voluntary Prepayments; Termination. (a) On each of the 12th and 24th Payment Dates following the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date and on the Scheduled Maturity Date, the Borrower shall reduce the Advances Outstanding by depositing in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Amortization Principal Reduction Amount applicable to each such Payment Date.

-90-

(b) Except as expressly permitted or required herein, including, without limitation, any repayment necessary to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency or Foreign Currency Excess Exposure, Advances may only be prepaid in whole or in part at the option of the Borrower at any time by delivering a Notice of Reduction to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lender Agents at least one Business Day prior to such reduction; provided, that any prepayment of a Foreign Currency Loan Asset not subject to a Hedging Agreement shall be made in the related Foreign Currency. Upon any prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay in full any Breakage Fees (solely to the extent such prepayment occurs on any day other than a Payment Date) and other accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and Lenders related to such prepayment; provided that no reduction in Advances Outstanding shall be given effect unless (i) sufficient funds have been remitted to pay all such amounts in full, as determined by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion and (ii) no event has occurred or 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 2.18(b) 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 2.18(b) shall be irrevocable.

(c) The Borrower may, at its option, permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments hereunder upon not less than 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents, subject to the payment of any Borrowing Base Deficiency or Foreign Currency Excess Exposure resulting from such permanent reduction, together with accrued and unpaid Yield and Breakage Fees (if any) relating thereto, all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and Lenders, to the Administrative Agent for distribution pro rata to each Lender Agent for the account of the applicable Lender; provided, in no event shall the Borrower have the right under this Section 2.18(c) to permanently reduce Aggregate Commitments below 50% of the Maximum Facility Amount as in effect on the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders. Upon the effectuation of any reduction in Aggregate Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender Agent a revised Annex A indicating the pro rata reduction of each Liquidity Bank’s and Institutional Lender’s Commitment effectuated under this Section 2.18(c) (unless a non-pro rata allocation is otherwise agreed to in writing by any Liquidity Bank or Institutional Lender in its sole discretion).

(d) The Borrower may, at its option, terminate this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents upon three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents and upon payment in full of all outstanding Advances; all accrued and unpaid Yield; any Breakage Fees; all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and Lenders; and payment of all other Obligations (other than unmatured contingent indemnification obligations). Any termination of this Agreement shall be subject to Section 12.05.

Section 2.19 Collections and Allocations. (a) The Servicer shall promptly identify any collections received as being on account of Interest Collections, Principal Collections or other Available Collections and shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, all Available Collections received directly by it to the Collection Account by the close of business two Business Days after such Collections are received. Upon the transfer of Available Collections to the Collection Account, the Servicer shall segregate Principal Collections and Interest Collections and transfer the same to the Principal Collection Account and the Interest Collection Account, respectively. The Servicer shall further include a statement as to the amount of Principal Collections and Interest Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Account and the Interest Collection Account on each Reporting Date in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.08(b).

-91-

(b) On the Cut-Off Date with respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer will 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 Portfolio on such date.

(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 and each Lender Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent.

(d) Prior to 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 Collection Account and the URCA Account in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, such funds shall not be invested. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in the Collection Account or the URCA 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, unless the Servicer determines in its good faith commercial judgment that there is substantial risk of material deterioration of such Permitted Investment. All such Permitted Investments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or its nominee for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and otherwise comply with assumptions of the legal opinions of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP and Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Finger, P.A., each dated the Closing Date and delivered in connection with this Agreement; provided that compliance shall be the responsibility of the Borrower and the Servicer and not the Collateral Agent and Account Bank. All income and gain realized from any such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in the Collection Account or the URCA Account shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. In the event the Borrower or Servicer direct the funds to be invested in investments which are not Permitted Investments, the Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account or the URCA Account (with respect to investments made hereunder of funds held therein), as the case may be, 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, any Lender 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 the Collection Account or the URCA Account, other than with respect to fraud or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent or the Account Bank 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 the Collection Account or the URCA Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 2.04 and Section 2.22.

Section 2.23 Extension of Scheduled Commitment Termination Date. The Borrower may, within 60 days but not less than 45 days prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date, make a request to extend the date set forth in the definition of “Scheduled Commitment Termination Date” for an additional period of one year. The Scheduled Commitment Termination Date may be extended by one year by mutual agreement among the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Borrower, the Servicer and each of the other parties hereto and in conformance with Section 12.01(b) (such extension, the “Initial Extension”). Following such Initial Extension, the Borrower may, within 60 days but not less than 45 days prior to the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date (as revised by the Initial Extension), make a request to extend the date set forth in the definition of “Scheduled Commitment Termination Date” (as revised by the Initial Extension) for an additional period of one year. The Scheduled Commitment Termination Date (as revised by the Initial Extension) may be extended by one year upon the mutual agreement among the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Borrower, the Servicer and each of the other parties hereto and in conformance with Section 12.01(b) (such extension, the “Second Extension”). The effectiveness of either the Initial Extension or the Second Extension shall be conditioned upon the payment of an additional fee set forth in the Agent Fee Letter in immediately available funds. The Borrower confirms that each other party hereto, in their sole and absolute discretion, without regard to the value or performance of the Loan Assets or any other factor, may elect not to extend the Scheduled Commitment Termination Date.

In connection with the Initial Extension or the Second Extension, unless the parties expressly indicate to the contrary, the Scheduled Maturity Date shall be automatically extended by the same extension period, in conformance with Section 12.01(b).

Section 2.24 Defaulting Lenders. If any Liquidity Bank or Institutional Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the provisions of this Section 2.24 will apply to the applicable Defaulting Lender Group until the Default Period has ended, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(a) Each such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver, or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders, Required Lenders and Section 12.01, including Section 12.01(d).

(b) Until such time as the Default Excess of any such Defaulting Lender Group has been reduced to zero, any prepayment of the aggregate Advances outstanding will be applied to the Advances of the Non-Defaulting Lender Groups in accordance with Section 2.04(a) and (b) in accordance with the Adjusted Pro Rata Shares.

(c) The amount of each such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and Advances will be excluded for purposes of calculating the Undrawn Fee, and each such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to receive any Undrawn Fee in connection with such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment for any Default Period relating to such Defaulting Lender.

(d) All or any part of each such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Advances will be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lender Groups in accordance with their respective Adjusted Pro Rata Shares, but only to the extent that (i) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower has otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower will be deemed to have represented and

-95-

warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time); and (ii) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Advances of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No such reallocation will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party under this Agreement against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender’s having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(e) If each of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer and the Borrower agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that resulted in it becoming a Defaulting Lender, then the Advances of the Lender Groups will be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Defaulting Lender shall purchase at par so much of the Advances of the other Lender Groups or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent determines to be necessary to cause the aggregate Advances outstanding to be held by the Lender Groups in accordance with their respective Commitments and Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.24(d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that notwithstanding Section 2.18(b), neither the Non-Defaulting Lenders nor the Borrower shall be liable for any Breakage Fees that may be incurred in connection with such readjustment of Advances.

No amount of the Commitment of any Liquidity Bank or Institutional Lender will be increased or otherwise affected by, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.24, performance by the Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents will not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of, any Funding Default or the operation of this Section 2.24. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.24 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and that the Administrative Agent or any Lender, Lender Agent or Lender Group may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

(e) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Collateral Portfolio pursuant to this Section 8.02 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.

(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 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 after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default provided for in this Agreement, including without limitation the following powers: (a) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (b) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral Portfolio in connection with any such sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (c) 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 (d) 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 or all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any power of attorney furnished hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any power of attorney unless an Event of Default has occurred.

(i) (1) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent elects to sell the Collateral Portfolio in whole, but not in part, at a public or private sale, the Borrower may exercise its right of first refusal to repurchase the Collateral Portfolio, in whole but not in part, prior to such sale at a purchase price that is not less than the amount of the Obligations as of the date of such proposed sale. The Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. on the second Business Day following the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice of the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s election to sell such Collateral Portfolio, such notice to attach copies of all Eligible Bids received by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent in respect of such Collateral Portfolio.

-158-

(2) If the Collateral Agent (acting as directed by the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent elects to sell less than all of the Collateral Portfolio in one or more parcels at a public or private sale, the Borrower may exercise its right of first refusal to repurchase such portion of the Collateral Portfolio prior to such sale at a purchase price of not less than the highest Eligible Bid received in respect of such portion of the Collateral Portfolio as of the date of such proposed sale, as notified by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. The Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 4:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice of the Collateral Agent’s or the Administrative Agent’s election to sell such portion of the Collateral Portfolio, if such notice is delivered by 12:00 p.m. on such Business Day; provided that if such notice is delivered after 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives such notice, or if the highest Eligible Bid received in respect of such portion of the Collateral Portfolio is greater than $25,000,000, the Borrower’s right of first refusal shall terminate not later than 12:00 p.m. on the following Business Day.

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 9.01, the first sentence of Section 9.02 or Section 9.02(d), as applicable), the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of the Action at its expense with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party.

-165-

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 reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party or its counsel, consult with and keep them informed with respect to the conduct of such defense. 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 9.04 After-Tax Basis. Indemnification under Section 9.01 and 9.02 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder, including the effect of such Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party.

Each Lender Agent and each Secured Party 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 or Lender Agent, 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.

-166-

(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 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 for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Lender, Lender Agent and 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 for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision 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; and (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 facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

(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 any Lender Agent as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lender Agents and Lenders (other than the Conduit 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 Lender Agent or 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 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 Agent or Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions and the Administrative Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from such Person within ten Business Days of such Person’s receipt of such request, then such Lender or Lender Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

-167-

(e) Notice of Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event. 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 Termination Event, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender, Lender Agent, the Borrower or the Servicer referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Event of Default,” “Notice of Unmatured Event of Default” or “Notice of Servicer Termination Event,” as applicable.

(f) Credit Decision with Respect to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender Agent 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 Portfolio, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates to any Lender Agent as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender Agent 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 Agent 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 Agent and each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender Agent 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 and Lender Agent (other than the Conduit Lenders) agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Servicer), ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, from and against 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; provided that the Lender Agents and Lender shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,

-168-

penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, further, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of any Lender or Lender Agent shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Article X. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender (other than the Conduit Lenders) agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, 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 Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents or Lenders hereunder 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 days’ written notice thereof to each Lender Agent and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with cause by the Lender Agents and the Borrower acting jointly. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Lender Agents acting jointly shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent (which, so long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default is then continuing, shall be subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Each Lender Agent 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 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 (i) 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 (ii) 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 X 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 Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders shall be allocated in accordance with their related Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share on the Business Day received by the Administrative Agent, unless 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 Agent on such Business Day, but, in any event, shall pay such amounts to such Lender Agent not later than the following Business Day.

(a) Authorization and Action. Each Lender, respectively, hereby designates and appoints its applicable Lender Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under each other Transaction Document, and authorizes such Lender Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Lender Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. No Lender Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document, or any fiduciary relationship with its related Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of such Lender Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise exist for such Lender Agent.

No Lender Agent shall be required to take any action that exposes such Lender Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or Applicable Law.

Each Lender Agent hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file any UCC financing statement deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender Agent (the terms of which shall be binding on such Lender Agent ).

Each Lender Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Lender Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

(c) Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Lender Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (except for its, their or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) responsible in any manner to its related Lender for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or the Servicer contained in Article IV, any other Transaction Document or any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith, or for any failure of the Borrower or the Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, or for the perfection, priority, condition, value or sufficiency of any collateral pledged in connection herewith. No Lender Agent shall be under any obligation to its related Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or the Servicer. No Lender Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default unless such Lender Agent has received notice from the Borrower or its related Lender.

-170-

(d) Reliance by Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases 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 its related Lender as it deems appropriate and it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by its related Lenders (other than the Conduit Lenders); provided that, unless and until such Lender Agent shall have received such advice, such Lender Agent may take or refrain from taking any action, as the Lender Agent shall deem advisable and in the best interests of its related Lender. Each Lender Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, in accordance with a request of its related Lender, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon its related Lender.

(e) Non-Reliance on Lender Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither its related Lender Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by such Lender Agent hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Borrower or the Servicer, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Lender Agent. Each Lender represents and warrants to its related Lender Agent that it has and will, independently and without reliance upon its related Lender Agent, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and all other documents related hereto or thereto.

(f) The Lender Agents are in their Respective Individual Capacities. Each Lender Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as though such Lender Agent were not a Lender Agent hereunder. With respect to Advances pursuant to this Agreement, each Lender Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement in its individual capacity as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not a Lender Agent, and the terms “Lender,” and “Lenders,” shall include the Lender Agent in its individual capacity.

(g) Successor Lender Agent. Each Lender Agent may, upon five days’ notice to the Borrower and its related Lender, and such Lender Agent will, upon the direction of its related Lender resign as the Lender Agent for such Lender. If any Lender Agent shall resign, then its related Lender during such five day period shall appoint a successor agent. If for any reason no successor agent is appointed by such Lender during such five day period, then effective upon the termination of such five day period, and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations due to such Lender directly to such Lender, and for all purposes shall deal directly with such Lender. After any retiring Lender Agent’s resignation hereunder as a Lender Agent, the provisions of Articles IX and X shall inure to its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Lender Agent under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XI

COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 11.01 Designation of Collateral Agent.

(a) Initial Collateral Agent. Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents hereby designate and appoint the Collateral Agent to act as its agent for the purposes of perfection of a security interest in the Collateral Portfolio and hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and on behalf of each of the Secured Parties and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly granted to the Collateral Agent by this Agreement. 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 successor Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.05, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will terminate its activities as Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c) Secured Party. The Administrative Agent, the Lender Agents and the Lenders hereby appoint Citibank, in its capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, as their agent for the purposes of perfection of a security interest in the Collateral Portfolio. Citibank, in its capacity as Collateral Agent hereunder, hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties set forth in Section 11.02(b).

Section 11.02 Duties of Collateral Agent.

(a) Appointment. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents each hereby appoints Citibank to act as Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Collateral Agent hereby 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 11.05, the Collateral Agent shall perform, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations:

(i) The Collateral Agent shall calculate 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);

-172-

(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 (the “Payment Duties”).

(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 Portfolio held hereunder which it receives from the related Obligor, participating bank 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 of an Event of Default or the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence of Event of Default, in which event the Collateral Agent shall vote, consent or take such other action in accordance with such instructions.

(c) (i) The Administrative Agent, each Lender Agent and each Secured Party further authorizes the Collateral 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 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, without limitation, 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 11.02(c) shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Servicer of their respective obligations to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral Portfolio, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral Portfolio in accordance with Section 5.01(t).

(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 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.

-173-

(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 (x) unless and until (and to the extent) expressly so directed by the Administrative Agent or (y) prior to the Final Maturity Date (and upon such occurrence, the Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with the written instructions of the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (x)). 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 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 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 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 Collection Account Agreement and the URCA Account Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Collateral Agent’s rights, protections and immunities provided herein shall apply to the Collateral Agent for any actions taken or omitted to be taken under the Collection Account Agreement and the URCA Account Agreement in such capacity.

Section 11.03 Merger or Consolidation. Any Person (i) into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Collateral Agent substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be the successor to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement.

Section 11.04 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 Agent 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: (i) its removal as Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 11.05 or (ii) the termination of this Agreement.

-174-

Section 11.05 Collateral Agent Removal. The Collateral Agent may be removed, with or without cause, by the Administrative Agent by 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 that the Collateral Agent shall continue to receive compensation of its fees and expenses in accordance with Section 11.04 above while so serving as the Collateral Agent prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed.

Section 11.06 Limitation on Liability. (a) The Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document delivered to it and that in good faith it reasonably believes to be genuine and that has been signed by the proper party or parties. The Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected in acting upon (a) the written instructions of any designated officer of the Administrative Agent or (b) the verbal instructions of the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Collateral Agent may consult counsel satisfactory to it and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties.

(d) The Collateral Agent makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral Portfolio, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral Portfolio. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal action hereunder that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other parties hereto that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility.

-175-

(f) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds in the performance of its duties hereunder.

(g) It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Agent is not guaranteeing performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral Portfolio.

(h) Subject in all cases to the last sentence of Section 2.05, in case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Agent may, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Final Maturity Date, request instructions from the Servicer and may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default or the Final Maturity Date, request instructions from the Administrative Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received instructions from the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. 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 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) The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement and shall not be required to monitor the performance of the Collateral Custodian. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to perform any of the duties of the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement.

Section 11.07 Collateral Agent Resignation. The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than 90 days written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld (and, so long as no Event of Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default is then continuing, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Majority Lenders) shall promptly appoint a successor collateral agent or collateral agents by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by the Administrative Agent, one copy of which shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent so resigning and one copy to the successor collateral agent or collateral agents, together with a copy to the Borrower, Servicer and Collateral Custodian. If no successor collateral agent shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Collateral Agent shall not have been delivered to the Collateral Agent within 45 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Agent may not resign prior to a successor Collateral Agent being appointed.

Notices and communications by e-mail shall be effective when sent (and shall be followed by hard copy sent by regular mail), and notices and communications sent by other means shall be effective when received.

Section 12.03 No Waiver Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Lender Agent 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.

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 Lender Agents, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Custodian and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Each Lender and their respective successors and assigns may assign, or grant a security interest or sell a participation

-182-

interest in, (i) this Agreement and such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder and interest herein in whole or in part (including by way of the sale of participation interests therein) or (ii) any Advance (or portion thereof) or any Revolving Note (or any portion thereof) to any Eligible Assignee; provided that prior to an Event of Default, consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required for (x) a Liquidity Bank to assign to any Person that is not a Liquidity Bank or an Affiliate of a Liquidity Bank or (y) an Institutional Lender to assign to any Person that is not an Affiliate of such Lender; provided, further, a Conduit Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest or Lien in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure any obligations of such Conduit Lender, without notice to or consent of the Borrower, the Servicer or any other Person so long as such pledge or grant of a security interest or Lien shall not release such Conduit Lender from any of its obligations hereunder, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Conduit Lender as a party hereto. Any such assignee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a fully-executed Transferee Letter substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto (a “Transferee Letter”) and a fully-executed Joinder Supplement. The parties to any such assignment, grant or sale of a participation interest shall execute and deliver to the related Lender Agent 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 Agent. 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 Agent and the Administrative Agent. Nothing in this Agreement, the Transferee Letter or Joinder Supplement can restrict or delay a Conduit Lender’s ability to assign its interests hereunder to its Liquidity Bank or an Affiliate.

(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, without limitation, rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement or under a Liquidity Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central 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 under such Liquidity Agreement, or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto or to such Liquidity Agreement, as the case may be.

(c) If a Lender (i) is a Defaulting Lender, (ii) fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and the Majority Lenders consented (whether pursuant to Section 12.01 or otherwise), or (iii) requests that the Administrative Agent deliver a demand for payment by the Borrower of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or (b), then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, the Borrower may, by notice to the applicable Lender Agent within 120 days after such event (with a copy of such notice concurrently delivered to the Administrative Agent), require such Lender Group to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Transaction Documents to one or more Eligible Assignees specified by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent within 20 days after the Borrower’s notice. The Administrative Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such assignment if any member of the affected Lender Group fails to execute same. The affected Lender Agent on behalf of the Lender Group shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Transaction Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (and including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or (b) the request for which resulted in the application of this Section 12.04(c)).

-183-

(d) Each Affected Party and each Indemnified Party shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement.

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. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by e-mail in portable document format (.pdf) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. In the event that any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. This Agreement and any agreements or letters (including Fee Letters) executed in connection herewith contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings other than any Fee Letter delivered by the Servicer to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Agents.

Section 12.11 Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process. (a) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents, and each party hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding.

(b) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees that service of process may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, at its address specified in Section 12.02 or at such other address as the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in accordance herewith. Nothing in this Section 12.11 shall affect the right of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Lender Agents to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 12.12 Characterization of Conveyances Pursuant to the Contribution 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 Contribution Agreement be, and be treated for all purposes (other than accounting purposes and subject to the tax characterization of the Borrower and the Advances described in Section 5.01(bb) and Section 5.02(j) hereof) as, a contribution by the Transferor of such Eligible Loan Assets. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such contribution 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 Contribution Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement under Applicable Law; (ii) as set forth in the Contribution Agreement, the transfer of the Eligible Loan Assets provided for in the Contribution 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

-187-

property, including, without limitation, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account and the URCA Account, 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), 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 Contribution 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 Contribution 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 Contribution 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 (other than accounting purposes and subject to the tax characterization of the Borrower and the Advances described in Section 5.01(bb) and Section 5.02(j) hereof), the transactions effected by the Contribution Agreement as contribution 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 publicly filed annual and quarterly financial statements of Solar Capital indicating that: (i) assets related to transactions (including transactions pursuant to the Transaction Documents) that do not meet SFAS 140 requirements for accounting sale treatment are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet of Solar Capital, as finance receivables pledged and non-recourse, secured borrowings and (ii) those assets are owned by a special purpose entity that is consolidated in the financial statements of Solar Capital, and the creditors of that special purpose entity have received ownership or security interests in such assets and such assets are not intended to be available to the creditors of sellers (or any affiliate of the sellers) of such assets to that special purpose entity.

Section 12.13 Confidentiality. (a) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the Account Bank, the Transferor, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian shall maintain and shall cause each of its employees and officers to maintain the confidentiality of the Agreement and all information with respect to the other parties, including all information regarding the business of the Borrower and the Servicer hereto and their respective businesses obtained by it or them in connection with the structuring, negotiating and execution of the transactions contemplated herein (including written non-public information relating to an Obligor that is required under the terms of the related Loan Agreement to be maintained as confidential), except that each such party and its officers and

-188-

employees may (i) disclose such information to its external accountants, investigators, auditors, attorneys or other agents, including any Rating Agency or valuation firm engaged by such party in connection with any due diligence or comparable activities with respect to the transactions and Loan Assets contemplated herein and the agents of such Persons (“Excepted Persons”); provided that each Excepted Person shall, as a condition to any such disclosure, agree for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agents, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent, the Borrower, the Account Bank, the Backup Servicer, the Transferor and the Collateral Custodian that such information shall be used solely in connection with such Excepted Person’s evaluation of, or relationship with, the Borrower and its affiliates, (ii) disclose the existence of the Agreement, but not the financial terms thereof, (iii) disclose such information as is required by Applicable Law and (iv) disclose the Agreement and such information in any suit, action, proceeding or investigation (whether in law or in equity or pursuant to arbitration) involving any of the Transaction Documents for the purpose of defending itself, reducing its liability, or protecting or exercising any of its claims, rights, remedies, or interests under or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.13(a), the Servicer may, subject to Applicable Law and the terms of any Loan Agreements, make available copies of the documents in the Servicing Files and such other documents it holds in its capacity as Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to any of its creditors. It is understood that the financial terms that may not be disclosed except in compliance with this Section 12.13(a) include, without limitation, all fees and other pricing terms, and all Events of Default, Servicer Termination Events, 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 Lender Agent, the Account Bank, the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian by each other, (ii) by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer 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, or (iii) by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lender Agent, the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian to any commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guaranty or credit or liquidity enhancement to any Lender or any Person providing financing to, or holding equity interests in, any Conduit Lender, as applicable, 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 Lender Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Account Bank, the Backup Servicer 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).

(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; (ii) disclosure of any and all information (a) if required to do so by any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation (including, without limitation Rule 17g-5) , (b) to any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any aspects of the Lenders’, the Administrative Agent’, the Lender Agents’, the Collateral Agent’s, the Account Bank’s, the Backup Servicer’s or the Collateral Custodian’s business or that of their affiliates, (c) pursuant to

-189-

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, any Lender Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, the Backup Servicer or the Account Bank or an officer, director, employer, shareholder or affiliate of any of the foregoing is a party, (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 or (e) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Collateral Agent, the Backup Servicer 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.

Section 12.14 Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment. All parties hereto agree that each of them and each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including, without limitation, opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. “Tax treatment” and “tax structure” shall have the same meaning as such terms have for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, the provisions of this Section 12.14 shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off that the Lender Agents or any Lender may otherwise have, each of the Lender Agents and the Lenders shall be entitled, at its option, to offset amounts owing by the Lender Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, to the Borrower, in Dollars or in any other currency (irrespective of the place of payment or booking office of the obligation and regardless of whether such amounts are then due to the Borrower), against any amount payable by the Borrower to the Lender Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement that is not paid when due. For this purpose, any amount owing by the Lender Agents or any Lender to the Borrower may be converted by the Lender Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, into the currency in which the amount payable by the Borrower to the Lender Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement is denominated at the rate of exchange at which the Lender Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, would be able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency.

-190-

participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided that, if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered.

(a)

(i) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Secured Party or other recipient that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by such-recipient (whether or not known to such recipient) (any such funds whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; a distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, a (“Payment”) and any such recipient, an (“Unintended Recipient”)) and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Unintended Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such demand was made, in same day funds in Dollars, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the day such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Unintended Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(b) If an Unintended Recipient receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates):

(ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or

(iii) that such Unintended Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or mistake (in whole or in part) or such payment is otherwise inconsistent with such recipient’s or market expectations;

in each case, an error shall be presumed to have been made with respect to such Payment absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary.

Section 12.24 Benchmark Replacement Setting

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then, (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, or in connection with an Early Opt-in Election, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in

-193-

respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Borrower without any amendment to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or further action or consent of the Borrower, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Borrower.

(i) If (i) a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred and the applicable Benchmark Replacement on such Benchmark Replacement Date is a Benchmark Replacement other than the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, (ii) subsequently, the Relevant Governmental Body recommends for use a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR and the Borrower requests that the Lender review the administrative feasibility of such recommended forward-looking term rate for purposes of this Agreement and (iii) following such request from the Borrower, the Lender determines (in its sole discretion) that such forward looking term rate is administratively feasible for the Lender, then the Lender may (in its sole discretion) provide the Borrower with written notice that from and after a date identified in such notice: (i) a Benchmark Replacement Date shall be deemed to have occurred, the Benchmark Replacement on such Benchmark Replacement Date shall be deemed to be a Benchmark Replacement determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” under this Section 12.24; provided, however, that if upon such Benchmark Replacement Date the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment is unable to be determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” and the corresponding definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment”, then the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment in effect immediately prior to such new Benchmark Replacement Date shall be utilized for purposes of this Benchmark Replacement (for avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this proviso, such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment shall be the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment which was established in accordance with the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” on the date determined in accordance with clauses (1) or (2), as applicable, of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Date” hereunder) and (ii) such forward looking term rate shall be deemed to be the forward looking term rate referenced in the definition of “Term SOFR” for all purposes hereunder or under any Transaction Document in respect of any Benchmark setting and any subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. For the avoidance of doubt, if the circumstances described in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, all applicable provisions set forth in this Section 12.24 shall apply with respect to such election of the Lender as completely as if such forward-looking term rate was initially determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”, including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in clauses (b) and (f) of this Section 12.24.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Servicer, will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of the Borrower.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR, Daily LIBOR or Fixed LIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, may modify the definition of “Remittance Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Remittance Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Advances bearing interest at the Base Rate. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

-195-

Within five Business Days of its receipt of any Required Loan Documents, the related Loan Asset Schedule and a hard copy of the Loan Asset Checklist, the Collateral Custodian shall review the Required Loan Documents to confirm that (A) such Required Loan Documents have been executed (either an original or a copy, as indicated on the Loan Asset Checklist) and have no mutilated pages, (B) filed stamped copies of the UCC and other filings (identified on the Loan Asset Checklist) are included, (C) if listed on the Loan Asset Checklist, a copy of an Insurance Policy with respect to any real or personal property constituting the Underlying Collateral is included, and (D) the related original balance (based on a comparison to the note or assignment agreement, as applicable), Loan Asset number and Obligor name, as applicable, with respect to such Loan Asset is referenced on the related Loan Asset Schedule (such items (A) through (D) collectively, the “Review Criteria”). In order to facilitate the foregoing review by the Collateral Custodian, in connection with each delivery of Required Loan Documents hereunder to the Collateral Custodian, the Servicer shall provide to the Collateral Custodian a hard copy (which may be preceded by an electronic copy of the related Loan Asset Checklist which contains the Loan Asset information with respect to the Required Loan Documents being delivered, identification number and the name of the Obligor with respect to such Loan Asset. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Custodian’s obligation to review the Required Loan Documents shall be limited to reviewing such Required Loan Documents based on the information provided on the Loan Asset Checklist. If, at the conclusion of such review, the Collateral Custodian shall determine that (i) the original balance of the Loan Asset with respect to which it has received Required Loan Documents is less than as set forth on the Loan Asset Schedule, the Collateral Custodian shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Servicer of such discrepancy within one Business Day, or (ii) any Review Criteria is not satisfied, the Collateral Custodian shall within one Business Day notify the Servicer of such determination and provide the Servicer with a list of the non-complying Loan Assets and the applicable Review Criteria that they fail to satisfy.

In addition, if requested in writing (in the form of Exhibit M) by the Servicer and approved by the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days of the Collateral Custodian’s delivery of such report, the Collateral Custodian shall return any Loan Asset which fails to satisfy a Review Criteria to the Borrower. Other than the foregoing, the Collateral Custodian shall not have any responsibility for reviewing any Required Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Collateral Custodian shall have no duty or obligation with respect to any Loan Asset checklist delivered to it in electronic form.

(iii) All Required Loan Documents shall be kept in fire resistant vaults, rooms or cabinets at the locations specified on the address of the Collateral Custodian in Section 12.02, or at such other office as shall be specified to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer by the Collateral Custodian in a written notice delivered at least 30 days prior to such change.

(iv) On the 12th calendar day of every month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), the Collateral Custodian shall provide a written report to the Administrative Agent and the Servicer (in a form mutually agreeable to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian) identifying each Loan Asset for which it holds Required Loan Documents and the applicable Review Criteria that any Loan Asset fails to satisfy.

(d) The Collateral Custodian makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral Portfolio, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral Portfolio.
