(iii) For all purposes hereunder, the Revolving Loans converted on each Conversion Date shall, as of such date, constitute and be referred to and treated for all purposes as a Term Loan hereunder. Any converting Lender and the Borrower shall cooperate to evidence the repayment and cancellation of any related Note evidencing such Lender’s Revolving Loans (or portion thereof) being converted into a Term Loan.

(c) ~~(d)~~ Conversion of Term Loans to Revolving Loans. At any time during the Revolving Period, any Term Lender affiliated with the Agent may convert (with the prior written consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and notice to the Borrower and the Collateral Manager) any portion of a Term Loan to a Revolving Loan.

Section 2.5 Permanent Reduction of Facility Amount. ~~(a)~~ The Borrower may at any time upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, each Lender Agent and the Collateral Agent, permanently reduce the Facility Amount, subject to Section 2.5(d), in whole or in part, by any pro rata amount that the Facility Amount exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans (after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment thereof). In connection with any permanent reduction of the Facility Amount under this Section ~~2.5(a)~~2.5(a) , the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall automatically, and without any further action by any party, be reduced pro rata with all other Revolving Lenders such that the sum of all Revolving Commitments, taken together with the Term Loans, will equal the newly reduced Facility Amount.

(a) ~~(b)~~ As a condition precedent to any permanent reduction of the Facility Amount pursuant to Section 2.5(a), the Borrower shall pay to the related Lender Agents, for the respective accounts of the Lenders, any applicable Prepayment Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Fee Letter, no Prepayment Fee or other prepayment fee or premium shall be due in respect of any prepayment or permanent reduction of the Facility Amount occurring (i) during the continuation of a Non-Approval Event, (ii) on any Conversion Date, (iii) if this transaction is refinanced by the proceeds of another similar transaction in which the Agent or any Affiliate acts as a lead placement agent (or as a co-lead agent) (iv) in connection with a Permitted Securitization, (v) with respect to solely any Prepayment Fee due and payable to the Agent (excluding any actually incurred breakage costs or fees), following the acceleration of Obligations pursuant to Section 13.2 or (vi) with respect to any Prepayment Fee due and payable to the Agent, if the Agent has declined a request to or otherwise does not increase the Facility Amount at any time that any Lender Group not affiliated with the Agent does consent to any increase (pursuant to Section 2.9 clauses (i) or (iii)) or to joining the Facility (pursuant to Section 2.9 clause (ii)); provided, that this clause (vi) will not apply if the Facility Amount is, at any time, equal to or greater than $250,000,000.

-72-

(b) ~~(c)~~ The Borrower may upon at least two Business Days’ notice (which notice shall contain a certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower certifying as to the satisfaction of the requirements set forth in this Section 2.5(c) with respect to such proposed prepayment) to the Agent, prepay and permanently reduce all or any portion of the Loans then outstanding, subject to the payment of the applicable Prepayment Fee, by paying to the Collateral Agent for the account of the Lenders the principal amount to be prepaid (from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account constituting Principal Collections) together with accrued Interest (including any accrued and unpaid Interest amounts) and Daily Commitment Fees, if applicable, thereon to the date of prepayment (from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account constituting Interest Collections); provided that any prepayments of Loans made pursuant to this clause shall (y) be allocated between the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans based on, with respect to principal, the Principal Allocation Formula, and with respect to Interest and any other payments on a pro rata basis and (x) result in the reduction and termination, of the Revolving Commitments and Term Commitments on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

(c) ~~(d)~~ In connection with any prepayment or cancellation of Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5, any Lender affiliated with the Agent shall have the option to purchase a Term Loan pro rata at par in order to maintain their current percentage of the aggregate amount of the existing Commitments after giving effect to such prepayment or cancellation (such purchases and sales of Term Loans being a “Rebalancing”).

Section 2.6 Extension of Revolving Period. The Borrower may, at any time commencing with the date that is nine (9) months prior to the last date of the Revolving Period and ending on the date that is immediately prior to the date that is 45 days prior to the last date of the Revolving Period, deliver a written notice to each Lender Agent (with a copy to the Agent and the Collateral Agent) requesting an extension of the Revolving Period and Facility Termination Date for an additional twelve months (each qualifying request, an “Extension Request”). Each Lender may approve or decline an Extension Request in its sole discretion; provided, that the Lenders shall respond to an Extension Request in writing not later than 30 days following receipt of such Extension Request, and if any Lender does not respond in writing by the end of such 30-day period it shall be deemed to have denied such Extension Request. No request by the Borrower to extend the Revolving Period shall be considered an “Extension Request” if such request is conditioned on an amendment to any other provision of the Transaction Documents.

Section 2.7 ~~Calculation of Discount Factor~~[Reserved].

The initial Discount Factor for each Eligible Collateral Obligation (which percentage may not be greater than 100%) will be determined by the Agent in its sole discretion in connection with the acquisition of such loan by the Borrower. With respect to any Eligible Collateral Obligation that is subject to an Evaluation Event and to which the Agent has not assigned a new Advance Rate pursuant to ~~Section 2.8,~~ the Discount Factor applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation shall only then be revised to be the lower of (A) the available price or valuation (expressed as percentage of par) of such Eligible Collateral Obligation (provided by an Approved Valuation Agent selected by the Borrower) and (B) the Discount Factor applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation immediately prior to such Evaluation Event; ~~provided~~ ~~that, if an Evaluation Event set forth in~~ ~~clause (f)~~ or ~~(g)~~ of the definition thereof occurs with respect to such Collateral Obligation, then the Discount Factor may not be less than the Revised Advance Rate. In the event that (x) an Eligible Collateral Obligation has experienced a downward Discount Factor revision due to a prior Evaluation Event and (y) the conditions that gave rise to such prior

-73-

Evaluation Event no longer apply, upon written notice from the Borrower to the Agent (which notice shall include an updated Information Package for such Eligible Collateral Obligation and, to the extent available, any of the information referenced in ~~clauses (b),~~ ~~(c)~~ (without any Effective LTV update) and ~~(d)~~ of the definition of Asset Approval Request), the Agent shall in its reasonable discretion revise such Discount Factor upward. Notwithstanding the above, in no case shall any Discount Factor be a percentage greater than 100%; provided that following the occurrence of an Evaluation Event set forth in ~~clause (a)~~ ~~of the definition thereof with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Agent may, in its sole discretion, re-determine the Discount Factor with respect thereto.~~

Section 2.8 Change in Advance Rate. The Advance Rate previously assigned by the Agent to any Eligible Collateral Obligation shall not change, except for the following events:

(A) during the Revolving Period, if the Diversity Score equals to or is lower than 7 at funding of an Eligible Collateral Obligation and subsequently exceeds 7, as long as (i) the Borrower notifies the Agent of such increase of Diversity Score and (ii) the Borrower notifies the Agent that no Evaluation Event has occurred relating to such Eligible Collateral Obligation, the Advance Rate applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation shall be revised upward pursuant to the guidelines set forth in the definition of Advance Rate;

(B) if the Diversity Score is higher than 7 at funding of an Eligible Collateral Obligation and subsequently during the Revolving Period decreases to be equal to or lower than 7, upon notice from the Agent to the Borrower, the Agent may revise the Advance Rate applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation lower pursuant to the guidelines set forth in the definition of Advance Rate;

(C) except as set forth in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), if no Evaluation Event occurs with respect to an Eligible Collateral Obligation, the Advance Rate for such Eligible Collateral Obligation shall be the Advance Rate assigned to such Eligible Collateral Obligation as of the related Cut-Off Date; or

(D) if an Evaluation Event occurs with respect to an Eligible Collateral Obligation, the Agent (solely for purposes of calculating the Revised Advance Rate, in consultation with the Borrower) shall have the right to adjust the Advance Rate for such Eligible Collateral Obligation solely at the time of such Evaluation Event in accordance with the following; provided that, after giving effect to any such adjustment, the Advance Rate shall not exceed the Advance Rate applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation immediately prior to such Evaluation Event:

(x) if an Evaluation Event set forth in clause (f) or (g) of the definition thereof occurs with respect to such Collateral Obligation, then the Agent may revise the Advance Rate applicable to such Eligible Collateral Obligation to equal the Revised Advance Rate;

-74-

(y) if an Evaluation Event set forth in clause (a), (b), (c), (d) or (h) of the definition thereof occurs with respect to such Collateral Obligation, then the Agent may adjust the Advance Rate of such Collateral Obligation in its reasonable discretion; provided that any such adjustment shall be subject to the Valuation Dispute Resolution Process; provided further that, in the case of an Evaluation Event set forth in clause (b), Agent shall consult in good faith with the Borrower prior to effecting any such adjustment of the Advance Rate and such Advance Rate shall be subject to the Valuation Dispute Resolution Process only upon the Borrower’s election to initiate the Valuation Dispute Resolution Process;

(z) in the event that (i) an Eligible Collateral Obligation has experienced a downward Advance Rate revision pursuant to a prior Evaluation Event and (ii) the conditions that gave rise to such Evaluation Event no longer apply, upon written notice by the Borrower to the Agent (which notice shall include an updated Information Package for such Eligible Collateral Obligation and, to the extent available, any of the information referenced in clauses (b), (c) (without any Effective LTV update) and (d) of the definition of Asset Approval Request), the Agent may at its reasonable discretion revise such Advance Rate upward.

(E) No revised ~~Discount Factor or~~ Advance Rate determined pursuant to ~~Section 2.7 or~~ this Section 2.8 shall be effective until the Agent has provided written notice of such revised ~~Discount Factor~~Advance Rate to the Borrower, Collateral Manager, and Collateral Agent.

Section 2.9 Increase in Facility Amount. The Borrower may, with the prior written consent of the Agent (which consent may be conditioned on one or more conditions precedent in its sole discretion), (i) increase the Commitment of the existing Lender Groups (pro rata) with the consent of each such Lender Group, (ii) add additional Lender Groups and/or (iii) increase the Commitment of any Lender Group with the consent of such Lender Group, in each case which shall increase the Facility Amount by the amount of the increased or new Commitment of each such existing or additional Lender Group.

Section 2.10 Facility Termination Date. Each Term Loan shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Facility Termination Date.

Section 2.11 Defaulting Lender. ~~(a)~~ Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Collateral Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent and with written instruction to the Collateral Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long

-75-

as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists (except to the extent caused by such Defaulting Lender, as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion)), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined (x) by the Agent or the Borrower or (y) by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.12, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund future Loans under this Agreement or for the refunding of any Swingline Loan, as applicable; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the other Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists (except to the extent caused by such Defaulting Lender, as determined by the Agent in its sole discretion), to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders or Swingline Lender, as applicable, on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

(ii) during any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.12, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that, each such reallocation shall be given effect only if the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans of that Lender;

(iii) promptly on demand by the Swingline Lender or the Agent from time to time, the Borrower shall prepay Swingline Loans in an amount of all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Swingline Lender (after giving effect to clause (ii) above); and

(iv) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Daily Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and under no circumstance shall Borrower retroactively be or become required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

-76-

(b) If the Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower determine in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of Loans outstanding of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.12 Refunding of Swingline Loans.

(a) Each Swingline Loan shall be refunded by the Revolving Lenders on the fifth Business Day after the corresponding Loan Date of such Swingline Loan (each such date, a “Swingline Refund Date”). Such refundings shall be made by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall thereafter be reflected as Revolving Loans by the Revolving Lenders on the books and records of the Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its respective Pro Rata Share of Revolving Loans as required to repay Swingline Loans outstanding to the Swingline Lender no later than 11:00 a.m. on the applicable Swingline Refund Date.

(b) If any Revolving Lender did not fund its Pro Rata Share of a Swingline Loan on the applicable Swingline Refund Date (such amount which was not funded, the “Unfunded Swingline Refund Amount”), the Borrower shall be deemed (without any additional action required) to request a Revolving Loan in an amount equal to the Unfunded Swingline Refund Amount. The Agent shall give notice of any such deemed Revolving Loan request to the Revolving Lenders. When received, the proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be applied to refund each Swingline Lender which was not refunded on the Swingline Refund Date.

(c) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swingline Loans in accordance with the terms of this Section is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2. Further, each Lender agrees and acknowledges that if prior to the refunding of any outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12, an Insolvency Event relating to the Borrower shall have occurred, each Lender will, on the date the applicable Loan would have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Loan to be refunded in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loan. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver to such Lender a certificate evidencing such participation dated the date of receipt of such funds and for such amount. Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s participating interest was outstanding and funded).

-77-

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12, the Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make any portion of a Swingline Loan attributable to any Defaulting Lender, unless the Swingline Lender has entered into arrangements (which may include the delivery of cash collateral) with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender which are satisfactory to the Swingline Lender to eliminate the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.11(a)(ii)) with respect to any such Defaulting Lender.

INTEREST, ETC.

Section 3.1 Interest and Daily Commitment Fee. ~~(a)~~ The Borrower hereby promises to pay, on the dates specified in Section ~~3.2~~3.2, Interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the applicable Loan Date until such Loan is paid in full.

(a) on the Facility Termination Date;

(b) on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on such Loan; and

Section 3.3 Interest Calculation. Each Note shall bear interest on each day during each Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the product of (a) the Interest Rate for such Accrual Period multiplied by (b) the outstanding Loans attributable to such Note on such day. All Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such Interest is payable over a year comprised of (x) with respect to Dollar Loans and Euro Loans, 360 days (other than Interest accruing by the reference rate set forth in clause (a) of the definition of Alternate Base Rate, which shall be computed over a year comprised of 365/366 days), (y) with respect to GBP Loans and CAD Loans, 365 days and (z) each GBP Loan shall be calculated as determined by the Agent in accordance with the methodology set out in Schedule 5 hereto.

-78-

Section 3.4 Computation of Interest, Fees, Etc. Each Lender Agent (on behalf of its respective Lender Group and the Agent shall determine the applicable Interest and all fees to be paid by the Borrower on each Distribution Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Collateral Agent thereof in writing no later than the Determination Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Such reporting may also include an accounting of any amounts due and payable pursuant to Sections ~~4.3~~4.3 and ~~5.1~~5.1 as well as any actually-incurred breakage costs that have not already been reimbursed to the applicable Lender.

Section 3.5 Temporary Disruption of the Benchmark. Subject to Section 17.2(b), if:

(a) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the then-current Benchmark and such inability to ascertain is not expected to be permanent; or

(b) the Agent has been advised by the Required Lenders that the then-current Benchmark will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan);

then the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any outstanding Loan that bears interest at a rate based on the then-current Benchmark shall on and from such day be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute, a Loan that bears interest at a rate based on (1) Daily Simple SOFR, (2) the Agreed-Upon Replacement or (3) the Alternate Base Rate (in order of the foregoing priority pursuant to clauses (1) through (3) as to the first of which (x) clauses (a) and (b) above are not applicable and (y) Section 17.2(b) is not applicable); provided that, in the case of clause (1) and (2) above, the Agent will notify the Lenders of the replacement rate on the date of determination thereof and, until the Lenders object to such replacement rate (which right of objection shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such written notice thereof is provided to the Lenders), the replacement rate shall be effective. For avoidance of doubt, until such time as the replacement rate is effective, the Loans will continue to bear interest based on the then-current Benchmark as of the last date of determination.

Section 3.6 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or if any governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund any Loan that bears interest at a rate based on the then-current Benchmark, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans that bear interest at a rate based on the then-current Benchmark or to convert ABR Loans to Loans that bear interest at a rate based on the then-current Benchmark will be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Loans of such Lender that bear interest at a rate based on the then-current Benchmark will be immediately converted into Loans that bear interest at a rate based on (1) Daily Simple SOFR, (2) the Agreed-Upon Replacement or (3) the Alternate Base Rate (in order of the foregoing priority pursuant to clauses (1) through (3) as to the first of which (x) Section 3.5(a) and (b) are not applicable and (y) Section 17.2(b) is not applicable); provided that, in the

-79-

case of clause (1) and (2) above, the Agent will notify the Lenders of the replacement rate on the date of determination thereof and, until the Lenders object to such replacement rate (which right of objection shall expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such written notice thereof is provided to the Lenders), the replacement rate shall be effective. For avoidance of doubt, until such time as the replacement rate is effective, the Loans will continue to bear interest based on the then-current Benchmark as of the last date of determination unless maintaining such rate would be unlawful, in which case the first replacement rate set forth above that is not unlawful will be used during such period.

Section 3.7 [Reserved].

Section 3.8 Fair Market Value. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Third Amendment is being entered into between them pursuant to arms’-length negotiations, and each party further acknowledges and agrees that it has no reason to believe that the fair market value of the Loans immediately prior to the Third Amendment having been entered into would not be substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the Loans immediately after the Third Amendment has been entered into.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS; TAXES

Section 4.1 Making of Payments. Subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions hereof, all payments of principal of or Interest on the Loans and other amounts due to the Lenders shall be made pursuant to ~~Section 8.3(a)~~Section 8.3(a) by no later than 3:00 p.m., in the Applicable Time Zone, on the day when due in the applicable Eligible Currency in immediately available funds. Payments received by any Lender or Lender Agent after 3:00 p.m., in the Applicable Time Zone, on any day will be deemed to have been received by such Lender or Lender Agent on its next following Business Day. Each Lender Agent shall allocate to the Lenders in its Lender Group each payment in respect of the Loans received by such Lender Agent as provided by Section 8.3 or Section 2.4. Payments in reduction of the principal amount of the Loans shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based on their respective portions of such Loans, or in any such case in such other proportions as each affected Lender may agree upon in writing from time to time with such Lender Agent and the Borrower. Payments of Interest shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based upon the respective amounts of interest and fees due and payable to them.

Section 4.3 Taxes. ~~(a)~~ Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law.

-80-

then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this ~~Section 4.3~~Section 4.3) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(a) ~~(b)~~ Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent and each Lender Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of another Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) ~~(d)~~ Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s failure to comply with the provisions of ~~Section 15.5~~Section 15.5 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this ~~Section 4.3~~Section 4.3(d).

(d) ~~(e)~~ Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body pursuant to this ~~Section 4.3~~Section 4.3, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 4.3(f)(ii)(A), Section 4.3(f)(ii)(B) and Section 4.3(f)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Borrower:

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

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

ARTICLE VIII

ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS

Section 8.1 Accounts. ~~(a)~~ On or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall establish each Account in the name of the Borrower and each Account shall be a segregated, non-interest bearing trust account established with the Securities Intermediary. Funds held in the Collection Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and the applicable Monthly Report. If at any time a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge that any Account ceases to be an Eligible Account (with notice to the Collateral Manager, the Agent and each Lender Agent), then the Borrower shall cause the Collateral Manager to transfer such account to another institution such that such account shall meet the requirements of an Eligible Account.

Except as set forth below, amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account may be withdrawn at the direction of the Borrower or at the direction of the Collateral Manager (i) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Variable Funding Asset, or (ii) to make a deposit into the Collections Account as Principal Collections if, after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is equal to or greater than the Aggregate Unfunded Amount.

-104-

Following the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower shall cause the Collateral Manager to forward any draw request made by an Obligor under a Variable Funding Asset, along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to the Agent and each Lender Agent) along with a written instruction to the Collateral Agent to withdraw the applicable amount from the Unfunded Exposure Account and a certification that the conditions to fund such draw are satisfied, and the Collateral Agent shall fund such draw request in accordance with such instructions from the Collateral Manager.

Following the end of the Revolving Period, if the Borrower shall receive any Principal Collections from an Obligor with respect to a Variable Funding Asset and, as of the date of such receipt (and after taking into account such repayment), the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is less than the Aggregate Unfunded Amount (the amount of such shortfall, in each case, the “Unfunded Exposure Shortfall”), the Borrower shall cause the Collateral Manager to direct the Collateral Agent to and the Collateral Agent shall deposit into the Unfunded Exposure Account an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the lesser of (a) the aggregate amount of such Principal Collections and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Shortfall.

(a) ~~(b)~~ All amounts held in any Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, be invested by the Collateral Agent, as directed by the Collateral Manager in writing (or, if the Collateral Manager fails to provide such direction, such amounts shall remain uninvested), in Permitted Investments that mature (i) with respect to the Collection Account, not later than one Business Day prior to the Distribution Date for the Collection Period to which such amounts relate and (ii) with respect to the Unfunded Exposure Account, on the immediately following Business Day. Any such written direction shall certify that any such investment is authorized by this Section 8.1. The Borrower, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Borrower and the Agent each agrees that it shall not give any instruction to invest such funds other than in accordance with, or subject to an exemption from, the Retention Requirements. Investments in Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Collateral Agent, and, except as specifically required below, such investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. If any amounts are needed for disbursement from the Collection Account and sufficient uninvested funds are not available therein to make such disbursement, the Collateral Agent shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such account to make such disbursement in accordance with and upon the written direction of the Collateral Manager or, if the Collateral Manager shall fail to give such direction, the Agent. The Collateral Agent shall, upon written request, provide the Agent with all information in its possession regarding transfer into and out of the Collection Account (including, but not limited to, the identity of the counterparty making or receiving such transfer). In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for the selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Collateral Manager or the Agent, as applicable, to timely provide investment instruction to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent and its Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments, and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to this Agreement.

The Transaction Documents delivered to the Agent, together with the constituent documents of the Borrower, represent all material agreements between the Equityholder, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other. Upon the purchase and/or contribution of each Collateral Obligation (or an interest in a Collateral Obligation) pursuant to this Agreement or the Sale Agreement, the Borrower shall be the lawful owner of, and have good title to, such Collateral Obligation and all assets relating thereto, free and clear of any Adverse Claim. All such assets are transferred to the Borrower without recourse to the Equityholder except as described in the Sale Agreement. The purchases of such assets by the Borrower constitute valid and true sales for consideration (and not merely a pledge of such assets for security purposes) and the contributions of such assets received by the Borrower constitute valid and true transfers for consideration, each enforceable against creditors of the Equityholder, and no such assets shall constitute property of the Equityholder.

Section 9.29 Compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. The Borrower represents and warrants that neither it nor, to its knowledge, any of its Affiliates, directors or officers, nor, to its knowledge, any of its or its Affiliates’ employees or agents, have engaged in any activity or conduct that would breach Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

Indication of the Collateral Agent’s (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest shall be deleted from or modified on the Borrower’s computer systems when, and only when, the Collateral in question shall have been paid in full, the security interest under this Agreement has been released in accordance with its terms, upon such Collateral Obligation becoming a Repurchased Collateral Obligation, Substituted Collateral Obligation or otherwise as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

(c) ~~(d)~~ Without limiting any of the other provisions hereof, if at any time the Borrower shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in loan receivables to any prospective lender or other transferee, the Borrower shall give to such prospective lender or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Collateral shall indicate clearly that such Collateral is subject to a first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(c) Each party to this Agreement (other than the Designated Reporting Entity), without prejudice to its rights hereunder and without accepting any liability, acknowledges that it has received from the Designated Reporting Entity as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the Transaction Summary and copies of the Transaction Documents.

(ii) such an agent or the Collateral Agent (as applicable) shall not be liable, and have no responsibility, for any non-publication or late publication of the Transparency Reports or any errors in the Transparency Reports to the extent such failure, delay or error results from incomplete or incorrect documentation, reports or information, or any delay in documentation, reports or information being provided to such agent by the Designated Reporting Entity or by the Collateral Manager;

In no instance shall the Collateral Agent be under any duty or obligation to take any action on behalf of the Collateral Manager in respect of the exercise of any voting or consent rights, or similar actions, unless it receives specific written instructions from the Collateral Manager, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Collateral Manager Event of Default or the Agent, after the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Collateral Manager Event of Default, in which event the Collateral Agent shall only vote, consent or take such other action in accordance with such instructions.

(i) The 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 Agent) as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action (at the written direction of the Agent) that the 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 or filing 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 Collateral Obligations 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 ~~11.3(c)(i)~~11.3(c)(i) shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Collateral Manager of their respective obligations to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral in accordance with Section ~~10.1~~10.1 . It is understood and agreed that any and all actions performed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this ~~Section 11.3(c)(i)~~Section 11.3(c)(i) shall be at the written direction of the Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility or liability in connection with determining any actions necessary or desirable to perfect, protect or more fully secure the security interest granted by the Borrower hereunder or to enable any Person to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder.

(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 that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (x) unless and until (and to the extent) expressly so directed by the Agent or (y) prior

-133-

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.

(e) Concurrently herewith, the Agent directs the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to enter into the Account Control Agreement and any other related agreements in the form delivered to the Collateral Agent. 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 Account Control Agreement and any other related agreements in such capacity.

Promptly after receipt of notice of the Collateral Agent’s resignation, the Agent shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent (which successor Collateral Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Majority Lenders and the Borrower) by written instrument, in duplicate, copies of which instrument shall be delivered to the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, each Lender Agent, the resigning Collateral Agent and to the successor Collateral Agent.

Section 11.6 No Adverse Interest of Collateral Agent. By execution of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent represents and warrants that it currently holds and during the existence of this Agreement shall hold, no adverse interest, by way of security or otherwise, in any Collateral Obligation or any document in the Collateral Obligation Files. Neither the Collateral Obligations nor any documents in the Collateral Obligation Files shall be subject to any security interest, lien or right of set-off by the Collateral Agent or any third party claiming through the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not pledge, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, dispose of, or otherwise grant any third party interest in, the Collateral Obligations or documents in the Collateral Obligation Files, except that the preceding clause shall not apply (i) to the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral Agent Fees and Expenses, (ii) to the Collateral Custodian with respect to the Collateral Custodian Fees and Expenses, and (iii) in the case of any accounts, with respect to (x) returned or charged-back items, (y) reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers, or (z) overdrafts in the Collection Account.

Section 11.13 Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Agent or the Collateral Agent notifies such Lender that the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from a Secured Party or any of its respective Affiliates (a “Payment Recipient”) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date that is two Business Days after the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, has demanded the return of such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Agent or the Collateral Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

-139-

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable (or any of their respective Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable (or any of their respective Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, (i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and (ii) such Lender, or the Agent or the Collateral Agent shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Agent or the Collateral Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 11.13(b).

(c) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent or the Collateral Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent or the Collateral Agent to such Lender from any source under or in connection with the Transaction Documents, against any amount due to the Agent or the Collateral Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent or the Collateral Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Agent or the Collateral Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent or the Collateral Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent or the Collateral Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Agent, (ii) the Agent or the Collateral Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent or the Collateral Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Agent or the Collateral Agent may reflect in the applicable register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Subject to Article XV, the Agent or the Collateral

-140-

Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Agent or the Collateral Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Agent or the Collateral Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Agent or the Collateral Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Secured Party under the Transaction Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent or Collateral Agent from the Borrower or any other party for the purpose of making a payment in respect of the Obligations, in which case such payment shall discharge and otherwise satisfy the applicable obligation of the Borrower being so paid, prepaid or repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any Erroneous Payment (including in connection with any subrogation related thereto), under no circumstances shall the Collateral Agent be deemed a lender-of-record.

(f) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent or the Collateral Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or the Collateral Agent, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document.

The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to the Borrower of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent (solely at the direction of the Agent) may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

Any such party may exercise such right by delivering written notice to the Agent (an “Exercise Notice”) which shall include a proposed purchase price, which Exercise Notice shall set forth evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Agent that the Equityholder has access to sufficient capital to consummate such purchase in accordance with this clause (c). Once an Exercise Notice is delivered to the Agent, the delivering party (or its designated Affiliate or managed fund) shall be obligated, irrevocably and unconditionally, to purchase the Collateral, at the price referenced above, for settlement within the normal settlement period for such Collateral; provided that the cash purchase price thereof must be received no later than ten (10) Business Days following delivery of the Exercise Notice. Neither the Collateral Agent, the Agent nor any Lender shall assert any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral, including any right described in Section 13.3(a) or Section 13.10, or cause the removal of the Collateral Manager pursuant to Section 7.02, or cause the liquidation or disposition of the Collateral Obligations to occur, in each case during the time that the Equityholder and its Affiliates are entitled to provide an Exercise Notice and purchase the Collateral pursuant to this Section 13.3(c).

Section 13.4 Collateral Agent May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and of asserting claims under the Transaction Documents, may be enforced by the Collateral Agent without the possession of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Collateral Agent shall be brought in its own name as Collateral Agent and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the reasonable, out-of-pocket and documented expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Collateral Agent each predecessor Collateral Agent and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Notes and other Secured Parties.

Section 13.5 Collective Proceedings. In any proceedings brought by the Collateral Agent to enforce the Liens under the Transaction Documents (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of any Transaction Document), the Collateral Agent shall be held to represent all of the Secured Parties, and it shall not be necessary to make any Secured Party a party to any such proceedings.

Section 13.6 Insolvency Proceedings. In case there shall be pending, relative to the Borrower or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Collateral, proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Borrower, its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of

-148-

any other comparable judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors of property of the Borrower or such other obligor, the Collateral Agent irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Collateral Agent shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered but without any obligation, subject to Section ~~13.9(a)~~13.9(a), by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise:

(c) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Secured Parties on their behalf; and

(d) to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Borrower, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, collateral agent or trustee or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Secured Parties to make payments to the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Secured Parties, to pay to the Collateral Agent such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover all reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Collateral Agent and each predecessor Collateral Agent except as determined to have been caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 13.7 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Collateral Agent or of any other Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this S~~ection 13.7~~Section 13.7 or by law to the Collateral Agent or to the other Secured Parties may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Collateral Agent or by the other Secured Parties, as the case may be.

-149-

Section 14.4 Reliance by Note Agents. Each Note Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other 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 counsel to each of the Lenders), Independent Accountants and other experts selected by such Note Agent.

Section 14.6 Non-Reliance on Note Agents. The Lenders expressly acknowledge that no Note 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 any Note Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Note Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Note Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, and the Collateral Obligations and made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Notes hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under any of the Transaction Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, and the Collateral Obligations.

In no event shall such Note Agent be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this Agreement.

-153-

Section 14.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Collateral Manager under the Transaction Documents, and without limiting the obligation of such Persons to do so in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents), ratably according to the outstanding amounts of their Loans from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Agent or the affected Person in connection with any investigative, or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Agent or such affected Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent or such affected Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under the Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 14.8 Successor Note Agent. The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth in this Agreement. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. In addition, prior to any assignment or participation by Société Générale of any interest in its Commitment which, in either case, after giving effect to such assignment or participation would result in Société Générale holding (unparticipated) less than 25% of the Facility Amount, the Required Lenders shall be permitted to appoint a new Agent with the consent of the Collateral Manager (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender Agent directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above. Upon acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent (other than liabilities of such retiring or removed Agent arising from or related to acts or omissions of such Agent prior to such acceptance and other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent), and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents. Any Lender Agent may resign as Lender Agent upon

-154-

ten days’ notice to the Lenders in its Lender Group and the Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) with such resignation becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights, powers and duties of the Lender Agent pursuant to this ~~Section 14.8~~Section 14.8. If a Lender Agent shall resign as Lender Agent under this Agreement, then Lenders in its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Loans held by such Lender Group shall appoint a successor agent for such Lender Group. After any Note Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Note Agent under this Agreement. No resignation of any Note Agent shall become effective until a successor Note Agent shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of such Note Agent hereunder; provided, that in the event a successor Note Agent is not appointed within 60 days after such notice of its resignation is given as permitted by this Section ~~14.8~~14.8 , the applicable Note Agent may petition a court for its removal.

Section 14.9 Note Agents in their Individual Capacity. Each Note Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or the Collateral Manager as though such Note Agent were not a Lender Agent hereunder. Any Person which is a Note Agent may act as a Note Agent without regard to and without additional duties or liabilities arising from its role as such administrator or agent or arising from its acting in any such other capacity.

Section 14.10 Borrower Procedural Review. The Borrower shall, at the Borrower’s expense, retain Protiviti, Inc. or another nationally recognized audit firm acceptable to the Agent in its sole discretion to conduct and complete a procedural review of the Collateral Obligations in compliance with the standards set forth on Exhibit B hereto once every 12-month period at the request of the Agent. The Borrower shall promptly forward the results of such audit to the Collateral Manager.

Section 14.11 Certain ERISA Matters. ~~(a)~~ Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Agent and its respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager or their respective Affiliates, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

-155-

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Agent, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or the Collateral Manager or their respective Affiliates, that neither the Agent nor any of its Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Agent under this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

-156-

Section 15.4 Assignment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. So long as no Event of Default or Collateral Manager Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender may make any assignment, and no such assignment shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Borrower, provided, that the prior written consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any proposed assignment (i) to an Affiliate of such Lender, or to any Approved Fund (but so long as no Event of Default exists, other than a Competitor), (ii) to another Lender hereunder; (iii) by a Conduit Lender to a Liquidity Bank, an Affiliate or its related Lender Agent or to a third party pursuant to the terms of a Liquidity Agreement (but so long as no Event of Default exists, other than a Competitor), or (iv) by any assignee of a Conduit purchaser contemplated by clause (iii) above back to such Conduit Lender or an Affiliate; provided further that, in each case, except with the written consent of the Borrower so long as no Event of Default or Collateral Manager Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such assignment does not result in the Agent holding less than 51% of the Commitments. Each Lender shall endorse the Notes to reflect any assignments made pursuant to this Article XV or otherwise.

No party to this Agreement shall allow any interest in this Agreement, any Note or any participating interest therein to become (i) traded on an established securities market (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(b)) or (ii) readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof (as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.7704-1(c)), and no Person shall transfer, assign or participate any interest in this Agreement, any Note or any participating interest therein in any such established securities market or any such secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof.

Section 15.5 Participations; Pledge. ~~(a)~~ At any time and from time to time, each Lender may, in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time grant participations in all or a portion of its Note and/or its interest in the Loans and other payments due to it under this Agreement to any Person (but so long as no Event of Default exists, other than a Competitor) (each, a “Participant”). Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) any such participation will not alter or affect such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s direct obligations hereunder, and (B) none of the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Agent, any Lender Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent nor the Collateral Manager shall have any obligation to have any communication or relationship with any Participant.

-157-

from a change in any Applicable Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation provided, that with respect to any greater payment under Section 5.1, such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive unless the Borrower has consented to such participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the ~~Borrower’s~~Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of ~~Section 17.16~~Section 17.16(b) with respect to any Participant.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 16.1 Borrower Indemnity. Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless on an after-Tax basis the Lender, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, the Securities Intermediary and the Agent and their respective Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and attorneys-in-fact and successors in interest (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including all reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses of one law firm plus any local counsel deemed

-158-

appropriate by such law firm) (all of the foregoing being collectively called “Indemnified Amounts”) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower of any kind or nature, which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in connection with (i) the execution, delivery and performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (other than with respect to legal fees and disbursements incurred on or prior to the date hereof), including, without limitation any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with any swap transaction with parties other than the Lender, or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought or threatened whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, and regardless of whether such Indemnitee is designated a party thereto, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the Lender’s or the Agent’s activities in connection herewith or therewith or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of loans hereunder; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall have any liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the date hereof).

Section 16.2 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 16.3 Contribution. If for any reason (other than the exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1) the indemnification provided above in Section 16.1 is unavailable to an Indemnitee or is insufficient to hold an Indemnitee harmless, then the Borrower agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnitee, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnitee, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

Section 16.4 Net After-Tax Basis. Indemnification under Section ~~16.1~~16.1 and Section ~~16.2~~16.2 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnitee whole after taking into account any Tax consequences, on a net after-Tax basis (including, for example, taking into account the deductibility of an applicable underlying damage, cost or expense) to the Indemnitee of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder (or of the incurrence of such applicable underlying damage, cost or expense), 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 Indemnitee.

The Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark replacement referred to in the definition of Benchmark herein) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.

expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service so long as the rate (or component thereof) used by the Agent in connection therewith is consistent with the such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

At any time that the administrator of the then-current Canadian Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Canadian Benchmark or such Canadian Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Canadian Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Canadian Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Canadian Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Agent that a Canadian Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Canadian Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Loans based on the Alternate Base Rate.

(ii) Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Canadian 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 Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Canadian Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

-162-

(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Canadian Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is a term rate (including Term ▇▇▇▇▇), then (i) the Agent may remove any tenor of such Canadian Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings.

Section 17.3 Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, or by email, to the intended party at the address or email address of such party set forth under its name on Annex A or at such other address or email address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto.

If such person elects to give the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian email (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian’s, as applicable, reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. Neither Collateral Agent nor the Collateral Custodian shall be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from their reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any person providing such instructions or directions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Collateral Agent or the Collateral Custodian, including without limitation the risk of the either of them acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties and acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by it and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.
