(F) based on a reasoned analysis, the assets of a Securitization Entity as a debtor in bankruptcy would not be substantively consolidated with the assets and liabilities of FAT Brands or the Manager in a manner prejudicial to Noteholders;

(p) any other relevant terms of such Notes (all such terms, the “Principal Terms” of such Series).

Section 2.4 Execution and Authentication.

(a) Each Note shall, upon issuance pursuant to Section 2.2, be executed on behalf of the Issuer by an Authorized Officer of the Issuer and delivered by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication and redelivery as provided herein. The signature of each such Authorized Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile. If an Authorized Officer of the Issuer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid.

(b) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Base Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes of any particular Series (issued pursuant to Section 2.2) executed by the Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, together with one or more Company Orders for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee, in accordance with such Company Order and this Base Indenture, shall authenticate and deliver such Notes.

(c) No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for below, duly executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of a Trust Officer. Such signatures on such certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that the Note has been duly authenticated under this Base Indenture. The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate Notes. Unless limited by the term of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Base Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such authenticating agent. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

“This is one of the Notes of a Series issued under the within mentioned Indenture.

	UMB Bank, N.A., as Trustee

	By:
		Authorized Signatory”

(d) Each Note shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Trustee.

Section 2.5 Note Registrar and Paying Agent.

(a) The Issuer shall (i) maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Note Registrar”) and (ii) appoint a paying agent (which shall satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in Section 10.8(a)) (the “Paying Agent”) at whose office or agency Notes may be presented for payment. The Note Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (including the name and address of each such Noteholder) and of their transfer and exchange. The Trustee shall indicate in its books and records the principal amount owing to each Noteholder from time to time. The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” shall include any additional paying agent and the term “Note Registrar” shall include any co-registrars. The Issuer may change the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar without prior notice to any Noteholder. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Base Indenture. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Note Registrar and the Paying Agent. Upon any resignation or removal of the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Note Registrar or, in the absence of such appointment, the Issuer shall assume the duties of the Note Registrar.

(b) The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Base Indenture. Such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Base Indenture that relate to such Agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Note Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee hereby agrees to act as such, and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with this Base Indenture until the Issuer shall appoint a replacement Note Registrar or Paying Agent, as applicable.

Section 2.6 Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust.

(a) The Issuer will cause the Paying Agent (if the Paying Agent is not the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which the Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee (and if the Trustee is the Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6, that the Paying Agent will:

(i) hold all sums held by it for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein provided;

(ii) give the Trustee written notice of any default by the Issuer of which it has Actual Knowledge in the making of any payment required to be made with respect to the Notes;

(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by the Paying Agent;

(iv) immediately resign as the Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums held by it in trust for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases to meet the standards required to be met by a Trustee hereunder at the time of its appointment; and

(v) comply with all requirements of the Code and other applicable tax law (including for the avoidance of doubt FATCA) with respect to the withholding from any payments made by it on any Notes of any applicable withholding taxes imposed thereon and with respect to any applicable reporting requirements in connection therewith.

(b) The Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture or for any other purpose, by Company Order direct the Paying Agent to pay to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee in trust upon the same terms as those upon which the sums were held in trust by the Paying Agent. Upon such payment by the Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money.

(c) Subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer upon delivery of a Company Request. The Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Trustee or the Paying Agent with respect to such trust money paid to the Issuer shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the Issuer, cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in New York City, and in a newspaper customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in London, if applicable, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. The Trustee may also adopt and employ, at the expense of the Issuer, any other commercially reasonable means of notification of such repayment.

Section 2.7 Noteholder List.

(a) The Trustee will furnish, or the Issuer will cause to be furnished by the Note Registrar, to the Issuer, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or the Paying Agent, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Trustee or the Issuer, as the case may be, of a request therefor from the Issuer, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or the Paying Agent, respectively, in writing, the names and addresses of the Noteholders of each Series as of the most recent Record Date for payments to such Noteholders. Every Noteholder, by receiving and holding a Note, agrees with the Trustee that neither the Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Issuer, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager, the Controlling Class Representative nor any of their respective agents shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Noteholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was obtained.

(b) The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes. If the Trustee is not the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee at least seven (7) Business Days before each Quarterly Payment Date and at such other time as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Noteholders of each Series of Notes.

Section 2.8 Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Note Registrar, if the requirements of Section 2.8(f) and Section 8-401(a) of the New York UCC are met (as determined by the Issuer), the Issuer shall execute and, after the Issuer has executed, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes, in any authorized denominations, of the same Series and Class (and, if applicable, Subclass or Tranche) and a like original aggregate principal amount of the Notes so transferred. At the option of any Noteholder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same Series and Class (and, if applicable, Subclass or Tranche) in authorized denominations of like original aggregate principal amount of the Notes so exchanged, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever Notes of any Series are so surrendered for exchange, if the requirements of Section 2.8(f) and (g) and Section 8-401(a) of the New York UCC are met (as determined by the Issuer), the Issuer shall execute, and after the Issuer has executed, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Noteholder, the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(b) Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be (i) duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Issuer and the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Xxxxxx’s attorney duly authorized in writing with a medallion signature guarantee and (ii) accompanied by such other documents as the Trustee or the Note Registrar may require, including evidence reasonably satisfactory to it to document the identities and/or signatures of the transferor, and the transferee (including but not limited to the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9). The Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or the Note Registrar, as applicable, Notes in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to enable the Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under the Indenture and the Notes.

(c) All Notes issued and authenticated upon any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same indebtedness, and entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(d) The preceding provisions of this Section 2.8 notwithstanding, (i) the Trustee, the Issuer or the Note Registrar, as the case may be, shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange of any Note of any Series for a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days preceding the selection of any Series of Notes for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note so selected for redemption, and (ii) no assignment or transfer of a Note or any commitment in respect thereof shall be effective until such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Note Register and in the books and records of the Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.5(a).

(e) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement, no service charge shall be payable for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Trustee, as the case may be, may require payment by the Noteholder of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.

(f) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement, registration of transfer of Notes containing a legend relating to the restrictions on transfer of such Notes (which legend shall be set forth in the applicable Series Supplement) shall be effected only if the conditions set forth in such applicable Series Supplement are satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in a Series Supplement to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor the Note Registrar shall be responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer or exchange of a Note or any insertion or removal of a legend on a Note complies with the terms of this Base Indenture or a Series Supplement or any applicable laws; provided that if a transfer certificate or opinion is specifically required by the express terms of this Base Indenture or a Series Supplement to be delivered to the Trustee or the Note Registrar in connection with a transfer, the Trustee or the Note Registrar, as the case may be, shall be under a duty to receive the same but shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a determination made by the Issuer with respect to) the sufficiency of any such transfer certificate or opinion; and provided further that the Issuer shall confirm to the Trustee in writing its approval of any proposed transfer of Notes, upon which approval the Trustee may conclusively rely as to compliance of such transfer with the terms of this Base Indenture, the applicable Series Supplement, and all applicable laws.

(g) Each transferee of a Note shall provide to the Issuer and the Trustee a transferee certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H (a “Transferee Certificate”) in connection with such transfer. If the transferee is unable to provide a Transferee Certificate, or would otherwise cause the Issuer to be unable to rely on the “private placement” safe harbor of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h), such transfer will be void and of no force or effect and shall not bind or be recognized by the Issuer or any other Person; provided, however, that a Transferee Certificate that omits one or more of paragraphs (1)-(3) of Exhibit H shall be acceptable if the Issuer receives written advice of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP or an opinion of other nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel experienced in such matters, to the effect that the acquisition or transfer will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 2.9 Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Trustee, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Trustee, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, any Agent nor the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 2.10 Replacement Notes.

(a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) there is delivered to the Issuer and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold the Issuer and the Trustee harmless then, provided that the requirements of Section 2.8(f) and Section 8-405 of the New York UCC are met (as determined by the Issuer), the Issuer shall execute and upon their request the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become, or within seven (7) days shall be, due and payable, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the preceding sentence, a protected purchaser (within the meaning of Section 8-303 of the New York UCC) of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a Protected Purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Trustee in connection therewith.

(b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.10, the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any Tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Note Registrar) connected therewith.

(c) Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer and such replacement Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of the Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued under the Indenture (in accordance with the priorities and other terms set forth herein and in each applicable Series Supplement).

(d) The provisions of this Section 2.10 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 2.11 Treasury Notes.

In determining whether the Noteholders of the required Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes or the required Outstanding Principal Amount of any Series or any Class, Subclass or Tranche of any Series of Notes, as the case may be, have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes owned, legally or beneficially, by the Issuer or any Affiliate of the Issuer shall be considered as though they are not Outstanding, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes of which a Trust Officer has received written notice of such ownership shall be so disregarded.

Section 2.12 Book-Entry Notes.

(a) Unless otherwise provided in any applicable Series Supplement, the Notes of each Class, Subclass or Tranche of each Series, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing Book-Entry Notes and delivered to the depository (or its custodian) specified in such Series Supplement (the “Depository”) which shall be the Clearing Agency on behalf of such Series or such Class, Subclass or Tranche. The Notes of each Class, Subclass or Tranche of each Series shall, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement, initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of the Clearing Agency or the nominee of the Clearing Agency. No Note Owner will receive a definitive note representing such Note Owner’s interest in the related Series of Notes, except as provided in Section 2.13.

THE TRUSTEE

Section 10.1 Duties of the Trustee.

(a) If an Event of Default or a Rapid Amortization Event of which a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have Actual Knowledge has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall (except in the case of the receipt of directions with respect to such matter from the Control Party in accordance with the terms of this Base Indenture or any other Transaction Document in which event the Trustee’s sole responsibility will, subject to the term hereof, be to await such directions and act or refrain from acting in accordance with such directions) exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Base Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise, as a prudent Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs; provided that the Trustee will have no liability in connection with any action or inaction taken, or not taken, by it upon the deemed occurrence of an Event of Default, a Rapid Amortization Event, a Manager Termination Event or a Control Party Termination Event of which a Trust Officer has not received written notice; provided, further, that the Trustee will have no liability in connection with any action or inaction due to the acts or failure to act of the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative in connection with any Event of Default, Rapid Amortization Event, Manager Termination Event or Control Party Termination Event, or for acting or failing to act due to any direction or lack of direction from the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative. The preceding sentence shall not have the effect of insulating the Trustee from liability arising out of the Trustee’s negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of the Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Base Indenture; provided that the Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Issuer under the Indenture. The Issuer and, by its acceptance of a Note, each Holder directs the Trustee to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(b) Except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or a Rapid Amortization Event of which the Trustee shall have Actual Knowledge:

(i) The Trustee undertakes to perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the Indenture or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party and no others, the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Base Indenture or any other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, and no other duties or implied covenants or obligations shall be read into the Indenture or any other Transaction Document against the Trustee; and

(ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of the Indenture and any other applicable Transaction Document; provided, however, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine such certificates or opinions to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of the Indenture.

(c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct, except that:

(i) This clause (c) does not limit the effect of clause (a) of this Section 10.1.

(ii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is conclusively determined by a court of competent jurisdiction no longer subject to appeal that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

(iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes, suffers or omits to take in good faith at the direction of the Manager, the Issuer, the Control Party and/or any Noteholder if direction from such Person is contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided that the Trustee shall have no responsibility for determining whether any such party is authorized to provide such direction hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

(iv) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Mortgage Recordation Event, Default, Event of Default, Potential Rapid Amortization Event, Rapid Amortization Event, Manager Termination Event, Potential Manager Termination Event or Control Party Termination Event or the commencement and continuation of a Cash Flow Sweeping Period until such time as a Trust Officer shall have Actual Knowledge or have received written notice thereof. In the absence of such Actual Knowledge or receipt of such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume that no such event has occurred or is continuing.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Indenture or any of the other Transaction Documents, no provision of the Indenture or the other Transaction Documents shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties or exercise of its rights or powers hereunder, if it has reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. The Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any risk, loss, liability or expense.

(e) In the event that the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar shall fail to perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required to be performed by the Paying Agent or the Note Registrar, as the case may be, under the Indenture, the Trustee shall be obligated as soon as practicable upon Actual Knowledge of a Trust Officer thereof and receipt of appropriate records and information, if any, to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required.

(f) Subject to Section 10.3, all moneys received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the Indenture or any of the other Transaction Documents to which the Trustee is a party.

(j) The Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing or depositing of this Base Indenture or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recordings or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or redeposition of any thereof; (ii) to see to any insurance, (iii) except as otherwise provided by Section 10.1(e), to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind or (iv) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates, or other documents of the Manager, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager or any other Person delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Base Indenture or any other Transaction Document believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; provided that the Trustee may conclusively rely upon such documents and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting thereon.

Within one year after the successor Trustee takes office, the Majority of Controlling Class Members (with the prior written consent of the Control Party, acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) may appoint a successor Trustee to replace the successor Trustee appointed by the Issuer.

(c) If a successor Trustee is not appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee is not delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, at the direction of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), the retiring Trustee, at the expense of the Issuer, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(d) [Reserved].

(iii) no trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such trustee or co-trustee as an agent of the Trustee; and

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them.

(b) Based upon the CCR Nominations that are received by the Trustee, within three (3) Business Days following the end of the CCR Nomination Period, (i) if no nomination has been received and there is no Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee will notify the Manager, the Issuer, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party and the Holders of the Controlling Class that no nominations have been received and that no election will occur, (ii) if one or more nominations have been received, the Trustee will prepare and send (which may be via email in connection with Definitive Notes and in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC in connection with Book-Entry Notes) to the Holders of the Controlling Class a ballot in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto (the “CCR Ballot”) naming the top three candidates based upon the highest aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of Controlling Class Members nominating such candidate, as certified in the applicable CCR Nomination (or, if fewer than three (3) candidates are nominated, the CCR Ballot will list all candidates) or (iii) if a Controlling Class Representative currently exists and no CCR Nominations are received prior to the end of the CCR Nomination Period, then the Person serving as the current Controlling Class Representative will be deemed re-elected and will remain the Controlling Class Representative. Each Controlling Class Member may, in its sole discretion, indicate its vote for Controlling Class Representative by returning a completed CCR Ballot directly to the Trustee certifying that, as of the date of the CCR Ballot (the “CCR Voting Record Date”), such Controlling Class Member was the Holder or Note Owner of the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class specified by such Controlling Class Member in the CCR Ballot. For any vote delivered on a CCR Ballot to be valid, such CCR Ballot must be received by the Trustee within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such CCR Ballot (such period, a “CCR Election Period”).

(c) If a CCR Candidate receives votes from Controlling Class Members holding interests in excess of 50% of the sum of the Outstanding Principal Amount of each Series of Notes of the Controlling Class, in each case, that are Outstanding as of the CCR Voting Record Date and with respect to which votes were submitted (which may be less than the Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class as of the CCR Voting Record Date), such CCR Candidate will be appointed the Controlling Class Representative pursuant to Section 11.1(d). Notes of the Controlling Class (or beneficial interest therein) held by a Securitization Entity or any Affiliate thereof will not be considered Outstanding for such voting purposes; provided that the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the identity of any Noteholder or Note Owner unless the Trustee has Actual Knowledge of such ownership or a Trust Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such ownership. If two CCR Candidates both receive votes from Controlling Class Members holding beneficial interests in exactly 50% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class with respect to which votes were submitted, the Controlling Class Representative will be the CCR Candidate chosen by the Issuer (or the Manager on its behalf pursuant to the Management Agreement). In the event that there is no current Controlling Class Representative and no CCR Candidate receives 50% of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount of Notes of the Controlling Class with respect to which votes were submitted, the Trustee will notify the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager and the Holders of the Controlling Class that no Controlling Class Representative has been appointed, and until a CCR Re-election Event occurs and a new Controlling Class Representative is elected then (i) the Control Party will exercise the rights of the Controlling Class Representative in accordance with the Control Party Agreement and (ii) any deliverable or notice that is required to be provided to the Controlling Class Representative under a Transaction Document will be delivered to the Control Party.

(d) In the event that a Controlling Class Representative is elected, deemed elected or chosen pursuant to the previous paragraph, the Trustee will forward an acceptance letter in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (a “CCR Acceptance Letter”) to such Controlling Class Representative. No Person will be appointed Controlling Class Representative unless such Person delivers to the Trustee an executed CCR Acceptance Letter within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt thereof. In the CCR Acceptance Letter, the Person accepting the role of the Controlling Class Representative will (i) agree to act as the Controlling Class Representative, (ii) provide its name and contact information and permit such information to be shared with the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager and the Noteholders and Note Owners and (iii) represent and warrant that it is a Controlling Class Member and not a Competitor. Within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such executed CCR Acceptance Letter, the Trustee will promptly forward copies thereof, to the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager and the Noteholders.

(e) Within two (2) Business Days of any other change in the name or address of the Controlling Class Representative of which the Trustee has received written notice from the Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee will deliver to each Noteholder, the Issuer, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party a notice setting forth the name and address of the new Controlling Class Representative.

(f) The Trustee will be entitled to conclusively rely on, without independent investigation, inquiry or verification, and will be fully protected in all actions taken or not taken by it with respect to all CCR Re-election Events, the representations and warranties of the Persons submitting CCR Nominations, CCR Ballots and CCR Acceptance Letters. In connection with a CCR Re-election Event, the Trustee shall be entitled to make such modifications to the CCR Election Notice, CCR Nomination, CCR Ballot and CCR Acceptance Letter as may be appropriate in connection with the applicable procedures of DTC or the policies and procedures of the Trustee from time to time, which may include additional certifications as to the beneficial ownership of a Note Owner and other identifying information in respect of the Notes, Holders or Note Owners.

(g) The Control Party and the Back-Up Manager will be entitled to rely on the identity of the Controlling Class Representative provided by the Trustee or the Majority of Controlling Class Members, as applicable, with respect to any obligation or right hereunder or under any other Transaction Document that the Control Party and the Back-Up Manager may have to deliver information or otherwise communicate with the Controlling Class Representative or any of the Noteholders of the Controlling Class, with no liability to it for such reliance.

(h) The Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to receive from the Control Party, upon request, any memoranda delivered to the Control Party by the Back-Up Manager pursuant to the Back-Up Management Agreement; provided that it shall have first executed a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to the Manager, and such confidentiality agreement remains in effect. Any such memoranda shall be deemed to contain confidential information.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the appointment of a successor Controlling Class Representative, the Majority of Controlling Class Members shall retain its rights hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to exercise the rights, powers, remedies or privileges of the Controlling Class Representative as set forth in Section 1.4(m).

(j) The Majority of Controlling Class Members shall have all privileges of and may assume and exercise all of the rights and remedies of the Controlling Class Representative at any time. Upon any dispute between the Controlling Class Representative and the Majority of Controlling Class Members, a written direction from the Majority of Controlling Class Members shall control.

Section 11.2 Resignation or Removal of the Controlling Class Representative.

The Controlling Class Representative may at any time resign by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party and to each Noteholder of the Controlling Class. As of any Record Date, a Majority of Controlling Class Members shall be entitled to remove any existing Controlling Class Representative by giving written notice to the Trustee, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party and such existing Controlling Class Representative. No resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative shall become effective until a successor Controlling Class Representative has been appointed pursuant to Section 11.1 or until the end of the CCR Election Period (or, if no CCR Election Period has occurred after a CCR Nomination, until the end of the related CCR Nomination Period) following such resignation or removal; provided that any Controlling Class Representative that has been removed pursuant to this Section 11.2 may subsequently be nominated as a CCR Candidate (provided that such Controlling Class Representative candidate satisfies the requirements of this Base Indenture) and appointed as Controlling Class Representative pursuant to Section 11.1; provided, further, that an existing Controlling Class Representative shall cease to be the Controlling Class Representative at the end of a CCR Election Period, even if no successor is re-elected pursuant to Section 11.1, unless such Controlling Class Representative is elected during such CCR Election Period (except that, in the event of a CCR Re-election Event, if no CCR Nominations are received prior to the end of the CCR Nomination Period, the current Controlling Class Representative will remain the Controlling Class Representative and no further action will be taken with respect to such CCR Re-election Event). In addition to the foregoing, within two (2) Business Days of its Actual Knowledge of the resignation or removal of the Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee shall notify the Issuer, Manager, Back-Up Manager and the Control Party.

Section 11.3 Expenses and Liabilities of the Controlling Class Representative.

(a) The Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability to the Noteholders or Note Owners for any action taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that the Controlling Class Representative shall not be protected against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations or duties under the Indenture. Each Noteholder and Note Owner acknowledges and agrees, by its acceptance of its Notes or interests therein, that (i) the Controlling Class Representative may have special relationships and interests that conflict with those of Noteholders or Note Owners of one or more Classes of Notes, or that conflict with other Noteholders or Note Owners, (ii) the Controlling Class Representative may act solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Members or in its own interest, (iii) the Controlling Class Representative does not have any duties to Noteholders or Note Owners other than the Controlling Class Members, (iv) the Controlling Class Representative may take actions that favor the interests of the Controlling Class Members over the interests of Holders of one or more other Classes of Notes, or that favor its own interests over those of other Noteholders, Note Owners or other Controlling Class Members, (v) the Controlling Class Representative shall not be deemed to have been grossly negligent or reckless, or to have acted in bad faith or engaged in willful misfeasance, by reason of its having acted solely in the interests of the Controlling Class Members or in its own interests, and (vi) the Controlling Class Representative shall have no liability whatsoever for having so acted pursuant to clauses (i) through (v), and no Noteholder or Note Owner may take any action whatsoever against the Controlling Class Representative for having so acted or against any director, officer, employee, agent or principal thereof for having so acted.

(b) Any and all expenses of the Controlling Class Representative for acting in its capacity as Controlling Class Representative shall be borne by the ~~Controlling Class Members (and not by any other party),~~ ~~pro rata~~ ~~according to their respective Outstanding Principal Amounts~~Issuer and paid in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a claim is made against the Controlling Class Representative and the Control Party or the Trustee are also named parties to the same action and, in the sole judgment of the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative had acted in good faith, without gross negligence or willful misconduct, with regard to the particular matter at issue, and there is no potential for the Control Party or the Trustee to be an adverse party in such action as regards the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party shall be required to assume the defense of any such claim against the Controlling Class Representative.

Section 11.4 Control Party.

(ix) to facilitate the transfer of Notes in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law (as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment, revision or modification is required or desirable for such purpose); provided that the Trustee shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a determination by the Issuer with respect to) the sufficiency of such Opinion of Counsel;

(x) to take any action necessary or helpful to avoid the imposition, under and in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, of any Tax, including withholding Tax;

109

provided, however, that, other than in the case of any Supplement with respect to clause (xiii) above, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party, such action could not reasonably be expected to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder, Note Owner, the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party or any other Secured Party.

(b) Upon the request of the Issuer and receipt by the Control Party and the Trustee of the documents described in Section 2.2 and delivery by the Control Party of its consent thereto to the extent required by Section 2.2, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of any Series Supplement authorized or permitted by the terms of this Base Indenture and shall make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into such Series Supplement which affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Base Indenture or otherwise.

Section 13.2 With Consent of the Control Party or the Noteholders.

(a) Except as provided in Section 13.1, the provisions of this Base Indenture, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, any Supplement and any other Indenture Document to which the Trustee is a party (unless otherwise provided in such Supplement) may from time to time be amended, modified or waived, if such amendment, modification or waiver is in writing in a Supplement and consented to in writing by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative); provided, that:

(i) any such amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to this Section 13.2 that would reduce the percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Principal Amount or the Outstanding Principal Amount of any Series of Notes, the consent of the Noteholders of which is required for any Supplement under this Section 13.2 or the consent of the Noteholders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with the provisions of the Indenture or any other Transaction Document or defaults hereunder or thereunder and their consequences provided for in herein and therein or for any other action hereunder or thereunder shall require the consent of each affected Noteholder;

(ii) any such amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to this Section 13.2, that would permit the creation of any Lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the Lien created by the Indenture, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Transaction Documents with respect to any material portion of the Collateral or except as otherwise permitted by the Transaction Documents, terminate the Lien created by the Indenture, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Transaction Documents on any material portion of the Collateral at any time subject thereto or deprive any Secured Party of any material portion of the security provided by the Lien created by the Indenture, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Transaction Documents shall, in each case, require the consent of each affected Noteholder and each other affected Secured Party;

110

(iii) any amendment, waiver or other modification that would (A) extend the due date for, or reduce the amount of any scheduled repayment or prepayment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note and the other Obligations (or reduce the principal amount of, premium, if any, or rate of interest on any Note and the other Obligations); (B) affect adversely the interests, rights or obligations of any Noteholder individually in comparison to any other Noteholder; (C) change the provisions of the Priority of Payments; (D) change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Notes and the other Obligations or the interest thereon is payable; (E) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of the Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes and the other Obligations owing to Noteholders on or after the respective due dates thereof, (F) subject to the ability of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) to waive certain events or modify thresholds as set forth in Section 9.7, amend or otherwise modify any of the specific language of the following definitions: “Default,” “Event of Default,” “Potential Rapid Amortization Event,” “Rapid Amortization Event” or “Outstanding” (as defined in the Base Indenture or any applicable Series Supplement); provided, that the addition to any such definitions of additional such events, and the subsequent amendment thereof, shall not be deemed to violate this provision, or (G) amend, waive or otherwise modify this Section 13.2, in each case, shall require the consent of each affected Noteholder and each other affected Secured Party (this clause (iii), the “Specified Payment Amendment Provisions”); and

(iv) any such amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to this Section 13.2, that would change the time periods with respect to any requirement to deliver to Noteholders notice with respect to any repayment, prepayment or redemption shall require the consent of each affected Noteholder.

(b) No failure or delay on the part of any Noteholder, the Trustee or any other Secured Party in exercising any power or right under the Indenture or any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.

(c) If a Series of Notes is rated by a Rating Agency, then the express requirement, in any provision hereof, that the Rating Agency Condition be satisfied as a condition to the taking of a specified action, shall not be amended, modified or waived by the parties hereto without satisfying the Rating Agency Condition.

Section 13.3 Supplements.

Each amendment or other modification to the Indenture, the Notes or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be set forth in a Supplement, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Trustee and the Issuer. The initial effectiveness of each Supplement shall be subject to the delivery to the Control Party and the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel that such Supplement is authorized or permitted by this Base Indenture and the conditions precedent set forth herein with respect thereto have been satisfied. In addition to the manner provided in Sections 13.1 and 13.2, each Series Supplement may be amended as provided in such Series Supplement.

111

Section 13.4 Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Noteholder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Noteholder and every subsequent Noteholder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Noteholder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. Any such Noteholder or subsequent Noteholder, however, may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of a Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Noteholder. The Issuer may fix a record date for determining which Noteholders must consent to such amendment or waiver.

Section 13.5 Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer, in exchange for all Notes, may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver.

Section 13.6 The Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc.

The Trustee shall sign any Supplement authorized pursuant to this Article XIII if the Supplement does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing any Supplement, amendment, modification or supplement to any Supplement or to any other Indenture Document, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, if requested, an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it and to receive and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that such Supplement, amendment, modification or supplement to any Supplement or to any other Indenture Document, is authorized or permitted by this Base Indenture and the Transaction Documents and that all conditions precedent have been satisfied, and that it will be valid and binding upon the Issuer in accordance with its terms.

Section 13.7 Amendments and Fees.

The Issuer, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative shall negotiate any amendments, waivers or modifications to the Indenture or the other Transaction Documents that require the consent of the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative in good faith, and any consent required to be given by the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative shall not be unreasonably denied or delayed. The Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Issuer for any reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred by the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative in reviewing and approving any amendment or in providing any consents, and except as provided in the Control Party Agreement, neither the Control Party nor the Controlling Class Representative shall be entitled to any additional compensation in connection with any amendments or consents to this Base Indenture or to any Transaction Document.

If to an Enhancement Provider: At the address provided in the applicable Enhancement Agreement.

(a) The Issuer or the Trustee by notice to each other party may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications; provided, however, the Issuer may not at any time designate more than a total of three (3) addresses to which notices must be sent in order to be effective.

114

(b) Any notice (i) given in person shall be deemed delivered on the date of delivery of such notice, (ii) given by first class mail shall be deemed given five days after the date that such notice is mailed, (iii) delivered by facsimile shall be deemed given on the date of delivery of such notice, (iv) delivered by overnight air courier shall be deemed delivered one (1) Business Day after the date that such notice is delivered to such overnight courier, (v) when posted on a password-protected website shall be deemed delivered after notice of such posting has been provided to the recipient and (vi) delivered by email shall be deemed delivered on the date of delivery of such notice.

(c) Notwithstanding any provisions of the Indenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no liability based upon or arising from the failure to receive any notice required by or relating to the Indenture, the Notes or any other Transaction Document.

(d) If the Issuer delivers a notice or communication to Noteholders, it shall deliver a copy to the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative and the Trustee at the same time.

(e) Where the Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if sent in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed (if any) for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to a Noteholder is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given. Where the Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. In the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made that is satisfactory to the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, for so long as FAT Brands is the Manager, any notice, communication, certificate, report, statement or other information required to be delivered by the Manager to the Issuer, or by the Issuer to the Manager, shall be deemed to have been delivered to both the Issuer and the Manager if the Manager has prepared or is otherwise in possession of such notice, communication, certificate, report, statement or other information, and in no event shall the Manager or the Issuer be in breach of any delivery requirements hereunder for constructive delivery pursuant to this Section 14.1(h).

Section 14.2 Communication by Noteholders With Other Noteholders.

Noteholders may communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under the Indenture or the Notes.

115

Section 14.3 Officer’s Certificate as to Conditions Precedent.

Upon any request or application by the Issuer to the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party or the Trustee to take any action (other than, in the case of the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative, any action expressly excluded from the satisfaction of such requirement) under the Indenture or any other Transaction Document, the Issuer to the extent requested by the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party or the Trustee shall furnish to the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party and the Trustee (a) an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party or the Trustee, as applicable (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 14.4), stating that all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in the Indenture or such other Transaction Documents relating to the proposed action have been complied with and (b) an Opinion of Counsel confirming the same. Such Opinion of Counsel shall be at the expense of the Issuer.

116

Section 14.7 Timing of Payment or Performance.

In any case where any Quarterly Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date of any Note shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any), as the case may be, need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Quarterly Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date; provided, however, that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Quarterly Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date, as the case may be. In addition, if the performance of any other covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such performance shall extend to the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 14.8 Governing Law.

THIS BASE INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK).

Section 14.9 Successors.

All agreements of the Issuer in the Indenture, the Notes and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party shall bind its successors and assigns; provided, however, the Issuer may not assign its obligations or rights under the Indenture or any other Transaction Document, except with the written consent of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative). All agreements of the Trustee in the Indenture shall bind its successors.

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Base Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. The exchange of copies of this Base Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or electronic transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Base Indenture as to the parties. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. Facsimile, documents executed, scanned and transmitted electronically and electronic signatures shall be deemed original signatures for purposes of this Base Indenture and any related document, with such facsimile, scanned and electronic signatures having the same legal effect as original signatures. The parties agree that this Base Indenture, any addendum or amendment hereto or any related document necessary may be accepted, executed or agreed to through the use of an electronic signature in accordance with the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (“E-Sign Act”), Title 15, United States Code, Sections 7001 et seq., the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act (“UETA”) and any applicable state law. Electronic signature shall mean any electronic symbol or process attached to, or associated with, a contract or other record and adopted by a person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record. Any document accepted, executed or agreed to in conformity with such laws will be binding on all parties hereto to the same extent as if it were physically executed and each party hereby consents to the use of any third party electronic signature capture service providers as may be reasonably chosen by a signatory hereto.

117

Section 14.12 Table of Contents, Headings, etc.

The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of the Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 14.13 No Bankruptcy Petition Against the Securitization Entities.

Each of the Noteholders, the Trustee and the other Secured Parties hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing Note, it will not institute against, or join with any other Person in instituting against, any Securitization Entity any arrangement or any Insolvency proceedings, or other proceedings, under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 14.13 shall constitute a waiver of any right to indemnification, reimbursement or other payment from the Securitization Entities pursuant to the Indenture or any other Transaction Document. In the event that any such Noteholder or other Secured Party or the Trustee takes action in violation of this Section 14.13, each affected Securitization Entity shall file or cause to be filed an answer with the bankruptcy court or otherwise properly contesting the filing of such a petition by any such Noteholder or Secured Party or the Trustee against such Securitization Entity or the commencement of such action and raising the defense that such Noteholder or other Secured Party or the Trustee has agreed in writing not to take such action and should be estopped and precluded therefrom and such other defenses, if any, as its counsel advises that it may assert. The provisions of this Section 14.13 shall survive the termination of the Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Nothing contained herein shall preclude participation by any Noteholder or any other Secured Party or the Trustee in the assertion or defense of its claims in any such proceeding involving any Securitization Entity.

Section 14.14 Recording of Indenture.

If the Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense.

Section 14.15 Waiver of Jury Trial.

THE ISSUER, THE TRUSTEE AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF A NOTE, EACH NOTEHOLDER, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS BASE INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY.

118

Section 14.16 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers.

The Issuer and the Trustee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) solely in the case of the Issuer, agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Issuer at its address set forth in Section 14.1 or at such other address of which the Trustee shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) (without limiting the Issuer’s obligations pursuant to Section 10.5) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section 14.16 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

Section 14.17 Permitted Asset Dispositions; Release of Collateral.

After consummation of a Permitted Asset Disposition, upon request of the Issuer (together with an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such release is authorized or permitted by the terms of the Transaction Documents and that all conditions precedent with respect thereto have been satisfied), the Trustee, at the written direction of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), shall execute and deliver to the Securitization Entities any and all documentation reasonably requested and prepared by the Securitization Entities at their expense to effect or evidence the release by the Trustee of the Secured Parties’ security interest in the property disposed of in connection with such Permitted Asset Disposition.

Section 14.18 Calculation of FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio and Senior Leverage Ratio.

(a) FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio. In the event that FAT Brands and/or the Securitization Entities incur, repay, repurchase or redeem any Indebtedness subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio is being calculated but prior to the event for which the calculation of the FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio is made, then the FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, repayment, repurchase or redemption of Indebtedness, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods (including in the case of any incurrence or issuance, a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom).

119

For purposes of making the computation of the FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio (including, without limitation the calculation of Covenant-Adjusted EBITDA used therein), investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, distributions and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to any Person or an operating unit thereof, and any restructurings or reorganizations that any Person has made during the preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods or subsequent to such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods and on or prior to or simultaneously with the date as of which such computation is made (each, for purposes of this Section 14.18(a), a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations, distributions, restructurings and reorganizations (and the change in Covenant-Adjusted EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became (or was merged into) a Securitization Entity since the beginning of such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods shall have made any investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, distribution, discontinued operation, restructurings or reorganizations, in each case with respect to such Person and/or an operating unit thereof, that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.18(a), then the FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such investment, acquisition, disposition, discontinued operation, merger, consolidation, distribution, restructurings or reorganizations had occurred at the beginning of the applicable preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods. The Consolidated Net Income, FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Interest Expense and Covenant-Adjusted EBITDA of FAT Brands shall be calculated on a consolidated basis with the Securitization Entities (and not the Non-Securitization Entities).

For purposes of making the computation of the FAT Brands Xxxxxx’s Native I Leverage Ratio, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma event, the pro forma calculations will be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Manager. Any such pro forma calculation may include adjustments appropriate, in the reasonable good faith determination of the Manager as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee (with respect to which the Trustee will have no obligation of any nature whatsoever) to reflect appropriate adjustments including (1) operating expense reductions and other operating improvements or synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable pro forma event and (2) all adjustments of the nature used in connection with the calculation of “Covenant-Adjusted EBITDA,” to the extent such adjustments, without duplication, continue to be applicable to such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods. For the avoidance of doubt, if the calculation of the FAT Brands Xxxxxx’s Native I Leverage Ratio described in this Section 14.18(a) is not completed by the applicable Quarterly Calculation Date, the Issuer may grant a grace period for such calculation in its sole reasonable discretion.

120

(b) Senior Leverage Ratio and DSCR. In the event that the Securitization Entities incur, repay, repurchase or redeem any Senior Notes and/or Senior Subordinated Notes subsequent to the commencement of the period for which the Senior Leverage Ratio, P&I DSCR, Interest-Only DSCR or New Series Pro Forma DSCR is being calculated but prior to the event for which the calculation of such ratio is made, then such ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, repayment, repurchase or redemption of Senior Notes and/or Senior Subordinated Notes, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods (including in the case of any incurrence or issuance, a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom).

For purposes of making the computation of the Senior Leverage Ratio, P&I DSCR, Interest-Only DSCR or New Series Pro Forma DSCR (including, without limitation, the calculation of Net Cash Flow used therein), investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and any restructurings or reorganizations that any of the Securitization Entities has made during the preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods or subsequent to such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods and on or prior to or simultaneously with the date as of which such computation is made (each, for purposes of this Section 14.18(b), a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, discontinued operations, restructurings and reorganizations (and the change in Net Cash Flow resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of such preceding four Quarterly Fiscal Periods.

Re:	Transfer of [Insert Series and Class] Notes of FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I, LLC

Reference is made to Section 2.8(g) of the Base Indenture, dated as of December 15, 2021, by and among FAT Brands Fazoli’s Native I, LLC, as Issuer, and UMB Bank, N.A., as Trustee and Securities Intermediary (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Base Indenture”). Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in Annex A to the Base Indenture.

In connection with the transfer of [Insert Series and Class] Notes, the undersigned hereby certifies as follows:

(i) It is not a member of an “expanded group” (within the meaning of Section 385 of the Code and the regulations thereunder) that includes a domestic corporation (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) if such domestic corporation, directly or indirectly (through one or more entities that are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as partnerships, disregarded entities, or grantor trusts) owns membership interests of the Issuer; provided that it may acquire Notes in violation of this restriction if it provides the Issuer (a copy of which the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee) with an opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to the effect that the acquisition or transfer of such Notes will not cause such Notes to be treated as equity pursuant to Section 385 of the Code and the regulations thereunder.

(ii) If it is classified for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a partnership, subchapter S corporation or grantor trust then (A) none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any interest in such person have or ever will have more than 50% of the value of its interest in such person attributable to the aggregate interest of such person in the combined value of the Notes (and/or any equity interests in the Issuer for U.S. federal income tax purposes), and (B) it is not and will not be a principal purpose of the arrangement involving the investment of such person in any Note and/or equity interests of the Issuer to permit the Issuer to satisfy the “private placement” safe harbor of Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h).

(iii) It will not directly or indirectly sell, encumber, assign, participate, pledge, hypothecate, rehypothecate, exchange or otherwise dispose of, suffer the creation of a lien on, or transfer or convey (each, a “Transfer”) the Notes (or any interest therein described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(a)(2)(i)(B)) in any manner or cause the Notes (or any interest therein) to be marketed, in each case, (i) on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Sections 1.7704-1(b) and 1.7704-1(c), including, without limitation, an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations, or (ii) if such Transfer would cause the combined number of holders of the Notes and any other equity interests in the Issuer for U.S. federal income tax purposes to be held by more than 100 persons in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(h).

H-1

(iv) It will not enter into any financial instrument the payments on which are, or the value of which is, determined in whole or in part by reference to the Notes or the Issuer (including the amount of distributions on the Notes or any equity interests in the Issuer for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the value of the Issuer’s assets, or the result of the Issuer’s operations), or any contract that otherwise is described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.7704-1(a)(2)(i)(B).

(v) Its beneficial interest in the Note is not and will not be in an amount that is less than the applicable Minimum Denomination, and it does not and will not hold any beneficial interest in the Note on behalf of any person whose beneficial interest in the Note is in an amount that is less than the applicable Minimum Denomination. It will not acquire or Transfer any beneficial interest in the Note or enter into any financial instrument or contract the value of which is determined by reference in whole or in part to any Note, in each case, if the effect of doing so would be that the beneficial interest of any person in a Note would be in an amount that is less than the applicable Minimum Denomination. For this purpose, the “Minimum Denomination” is $1,000,000 in the case of the Class A-2 Notes, $1,500,000 in the case of the Class B-2 Notes and $2,000,000 in the case of the Class M-2 Notes.

(vi) It will not take any action that could cause, and will not omit to take any action, which omission would cause, the Issuer to become taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The undersigned agrees to indemnify the Trustee for its costs and expenses in connection with the delivery of the enclosed notice or communication.

*If transferee is unable to provide any of the representations set forth in paragraphs (ii) through (iv) above, the transfer may still be registered if transferee provides to the Issuer written advice of Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP or an opinion of other nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel experienced in such matters, to the effect that the acquisition or transfer of Notes will not cause the Issuer to be treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Manager has paid or caused to be paid, and shall pay or cause to be paid, all taxes owed by the Manager pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessments made against it or any of its property (other than any amount of tax the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate action and with respect to which reserves in accordance with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Manager).

(i) Accuracy of Information. No written report, financial statements, certificate or other written information furnished (other than projections, budgets, other estimates and general market, industry and economic data) to the Control Party or the Back-Up Manager by or on behalf of the Manager in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (when taken together with all other information furnished by or on behalf of the Manager to the Control Party or the Back-Up Manager, as the case may be), contains any material misstatement of fact as of the date furnished or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not materially misleading in each case when taken as a whole and in the light of the circumstances under which they were made; and with respect to its projected financial information, the Manager represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based on assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time.

(j) Financial Statements. As of the Closing Date, the audited consolidated financial statements in the Manager’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2020 (including all exhibits thereto) filed on March 28, 2021 and the Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 12, 2021, August 6, 2021 and November 8, 2021 incorporated by reference into the Offering Memorandum (i) present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of Manager and its Subsidiaries as of such date, and the results of operations for the respective periods then ended and (ii) were prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as otherwise stated therein) applied consistently through the periods involved subject, in the case of such quarterly financial statements, to the absence of footnotes and to normal year-end audit adjustments.

(k) No Material Adverse Change. Since November 8, 2021, except as otherwise set forth in the Offering Memorandum, there has been no development or event that has had or would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on the Manager or the Collateral.

(l) ERISA. Neither the Manager nor any member of a Controlled Group that includes the Manager has established, maintains, contributes to, or has any liability in respect of (or has in the past six years established, maintained, contributed to, or had any liability in respect of) any Pension Plan. Neither the Manager nor any of its Affiliates has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement welfare benefits under a Welfare Plan, other than liability for continuation (i) described in Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA or other applicable continuation of coverage laws, (ii) provided in connection with the payment of severance benefits or (iii) that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Employee Benefit Plan presently complies and has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including ERISA and the Code, except for such instances of noncompliance as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No “prohibited transaction” (within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) has occurred with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan, other than transactions effected pursuant to a statutory or administrative exemption or such transactions as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, each such Employee Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by failure to act, which would cause the loss of such qualification.

(m) No Manager Termination Event. No Manager Termination Event has occurred or is continuing, and, to the Actual Knowledge of the Manager, there is no event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a Manager Termination Event.

(n) Location of Records. The offices at which the Manager keeps its records concerning the Managed Assets are located at the addresses indicated in Section 8.5.

(o) DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT FOR THE MANAGER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH HEREIN AND IN ANY OTHER RELATED DOCUMENT, THE MANAGER MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF TO ANY OTHER PARTY, AND EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTY OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

(b) Existence; Status as Manager. The Manager shall (a) keep in full effect its existence under the laws of the state of its incorporation, (b) maintain all rights and privileges necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of its business and the performance of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and (c) obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify either individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Performance. The Manager shall perform and observe all of its obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and in accordance with the Managing Standard.

(b) Special Provisions as to Securitization IP.

(i) The Manager acknowledges and agrees that each Guarantor has the right and duty to control the quality of the goods and services offered under such Guarantor’s Trademarks included in the Securitization IP and the manner in which such Trademarks are used in order to maintain the validity and enforceability of and its ownership of the Trademarks included in the Securitization IP. The Manager shall not take any action contrary to the express written instruction of the applicable Guarantor with respect to: (A) the promulgation of standards with respect to the operation of Branded Restaurants, including quality of food, cleanliness, appearance, and level of service (or the making of material changes to the existing standards), (B) the promulgation of standards with respect to new businesses, products and services which the applicable Guarantor approves for inclusion in the license granted under any IP License Agreement (or other license agreement or sublicense agreement for which the Manager is performing IP Services), (C) the nature and implementation of means of monitoring and controlling adherence to the standards, (D) the terms of any Franchise Agreements, the Product Sourcing Agreements or other sublicense agreements relating to the quality standards which licensees must follow with respect to businesses, products, and services offered under the Trademarks included in the Securitization IP and the usage of such Trademarks, (E) the commencement and prosecution of enforcement actions with respect to the Trademarks included in the Securitization IP and the terms of any settlements thereof, (F) the adoption of any variations on the Brands which are not in use on the Closing Date, or other new Trademarks to be included in the Securitization IP, (G) the abandonment of any Securitization IP and (H) any uses of the Securitization IP that are not consistent with the Managing Standard. The Guarantors shall have the right to monitor the Manager’s compliance with the foregoing and its performance of the IP Services and, in furtherance thereof, Manager shall provide each Guarantor, at either Guarantor’s written request from time to time, with copies of Franchise Documents, the Product Sourcing Agreements and other sublicenses, samples of products and materials bearing the Trademarks included in the Securitization IP used by Franchisees, any manufacturer or distributor of Products and other licensees and sublicensees. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit the Guarantors’ rights or the licensees’ obligations under the IP License Agreements or any other agreement with respect to which the Manager is performing IP Services.

(ii) The Manager is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free sublicensable license to use the Securitization IP solely in connection with the performance of the Services under this Agreement. In connection with the Manager’s use of any Trademark included in the Securitization IP pursuant to the foregoing license, the Manager agrees to adhere to the quality control provisions and sublicensing provisions, with respect to sublicenses issued hereunder, which are contained in each IP License Agreement, as applicable to the product or service to which such Trademark pertains, as if such provisions were incorporated by reference herein.

(c) Right to Receive Instructions. Without limiting the Manager’s obligations under Section 4.3(b) above, in the event that the Manager is unable to decide between alternative courses of action, or is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any Managed Documents, or any such provision is, in the good faith judgment of the Manager, ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any Managed Document permits any determination by the Manager or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action which the Manager is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Manager may make a Consent Request to the Control Party for written instructions in accordance with the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents and, to the extent that the Manager shall have acted or refrained from acting in good faith in accordance with instructions, if any, received from the Control Party with respect to such Consent Request, the Manager shall not be liable on account of such action or inaction to any Person; provided that the Control Party shall be under no obligation to provide any such instruction if it is unable to decide between alternative courses of action. Subject to the Managing Standard, if the Manager shall not have received appropriate instructions from the Control Party within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as may be specified in such notice), the Manager may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, as the Manager shall deem to be in the best interests of the Noteholders and the Securitization Entities. The Manager shall have no liability to any Secured Party or the Controlling Class Representative for such action or inaction taken in reliance on the preceding sentence except for the Manager’s own bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct.

(d) Limitation on Manager’s Duties and Responsibilities.

(i) The Manager shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment in respect of, register, record, sell, reinvest, dispose of, create, perfect or maintain title to, or any security interest in, or otherwise deal with the Collateral, to prepare or file any report or other document or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Manager is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and consistent with the Managing Standard, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Manager. The Manager nevertheless agrees that it shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any Liens (other than Permitted Liens) on any part of the Managed Assets which result from valid claims against the Manager personally whether or not related to the ownership or administration of the Managed Assets or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

(ii) Except as otherwise set forth herein and in the other Transaction Documents, the Manager shall have no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the Services in good faith and consistent with the Managing Standard.

(e) Limitations on the Manager’s Liabilities, Duties and Responsibilities. Subject to Section 2.7 and except for any loss, liability, expense, damage, action, suit or injury arising out of, or resulting from, (i) any breach or default by the Manager in the observance or performance of any of its agreements contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party in its capacity as Manager, (ii) the breach by the Manager of any representation, warranty or covenant made by it herein or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party in its capacity as Manager or (iii) acts or omissions constituting the Manager’s own bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct, in the performance of its duties hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents or otherwise, neither the Manager nor any of its Affiliates, managers, officers, members or employees shall be liable to any Securitization Entity, the Noteholders or any other Person under any circumstances, including: (1) for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Manager in good faith in accordance with the instructions of the Trustee, the Control Party or the Back-Up Manager; (2) for any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or Indebtedness of any Securitization Entity under the Notes, any other Transaction Documents or the Managed Documents, or for any other liability or obligation of any Securitization Entity; (3) for the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or the due execution hereof by any party hereto other than the Manager, or the form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any part of the Collateral (including the creditworthiness of any Franchisee, lessee or other obligor thereunder), or for, or in respect of, the validity or sufficiency of the Transaction Documents; and (4) for any action or inaction of the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager or the Control Party or for the performance of, or the supervision of the performance of, any obligation under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that is required to be performed by the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager or the Control Party.

(f) No Financial Liability. No provision of this Agreement (other than Sections 2.6, 2.7, 4.3(d)(i) and 4.3(e)) shall require the Manager to expend or risk its funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its rights or powers hereunder, if the Manager shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not compensated by the payment of the Monthly Management Fee and is otherwise not reasonably assured or provided to the Manager. Further, the Manager shall not be obligated to perform any services not enumerated or otherwise contemplated hereunder, unless the Manager determines that it is more likely than not that it shall be reimbursed for all of its expenses incurred in connection with such performance. The Manager shall not be liable under the Notes and shall not be responsible for any amounts required to be paid by the Securitization Entities under or pursuant to the Indenture.

(g) Reliance. The Manager may, reasonably and in good faith, conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting when doing so, in each case in accordance with any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties other than its Affiliates. The Manager may reasonably accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any corporate or other entity other than its Affiliates as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the manner or ascertainment of which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Manager may in good faith for all purposes hereof reasonably rely on a certificate, signed by any Authorized Officer of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate reasonably relied upon in good faith shall constitute full protection to the Manager for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

(h) Consultations with Third Parties; Advice of Counsel. In the exercise and performance of its duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the Transaction Documents, the Manager (A) may act directly or through agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them; provided that the Manager shall remain primarily liable hereunder for the acts or omissions of such agents or attorneys and (B) may, at the expense of the Manager, consult with external counsel or accountants selected and monitored by the Manager in good faith and in the absence of negligence, and the Manager shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of any such external counsel or accountants with respect to legal or accounting matters.

(i) Independent Contractor. In performing its obligations as manager hereunder the Manager acts solely as an independent contractor of the Securitization Entities, except to the extent the Manager is deemed to be an agent of the Securitization Entities by virtue of engaging in franchise sales activities, as a broker, or receiving payments on behalf of the Securitization Entities, as applicable. Nothing in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, create or constitute any joint venture, partnership, employment, or any other relationship between the Securitization Entities and the Manager other than the independent contractor contractual relationship established hereby. Nothing herein shall be deemed to vest in the Manager title to any of the Securitization IP. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the other Transaction Documents, the Manager shall not be, nor shall be deemed to be, liable for any acts or obligations of the Securitization Entities, the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager or the Control Party (except as set forth in Section 2.7 hereof).

(d) Merger and Resignation.

Resignation. The Manager shall not resign from the rights, powers, obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon its determination that (A) the performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under applicable Requirements of Law and (B) there is no reasonable action that the Manager could take to make the performance of its duties hereunder permissible under applicable Requirements of Law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Manager pursuant to clause (A) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee, the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party. No such resignation shall become effective until a Successor Manager shall have been appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class representative) and shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Manager in accordance with Section 6.1(a).

As of the applicable New Asset Addition Date, with respect to each New Company Restaurant acquired on such New Asset Addition Date, the Manager represents and warrants to the Securitization Entities, the Trustee and the Control Party, that the applicable Guarantor owns full legal and equitable title to each such Company Restaurant, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) and the addition of such Company Restaurant could not be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect.

(b) Assets Acquired After the Closing Date.

(a) The Manager has caused and shall continue to cause the applicable Guarantor to enter into or acquire each of the following, to the extent entered into or acquired after the Closing Date: (a) all New Franchise Agreements, New Development Agreements, New Franchisee Notes, New Equipment Leases, New Company Restaurant Leases and New Product Sourcing Agreements, (b) all Securitization IP and (c) all Real Estate Assets. The Manager may, but shall not be obligated to, cause the Securitization Entities to enter into, develop or acquire assets other than the foregoing from time to time; provided that the entry into, development or acquisition of any material assets that are not reasonably ancillary to the restaurant business or the foodservice industry shall require the prior satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, if applicable, and the prior written consent of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative). Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), the entry into, development or acquisition of assets by the Securitization Entities will be subject to all applicable provisions of the Indenture, this Management Agreement, the IP License Agreements and the other relevant Transaction Documents.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), any contribution to, or development or acquisition by, any Guarantor of assets obtained after the Closing Date described in Section 5.2(a) shall be subject to all applicable provisions of the Indenture, this Agreement (including the applicable representations and warranties and covenants in Articles II and V of this Agreement), the IP License Agreements and the other Transaction Documents. Any Franchise Agreement that is obtained after the Closing Date as described in Section 5.2(a) shall be deemed to be a New Franchise Agreement for the purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Securitization IP. All Securitization IP shall be owned solely by the applicable Guarantor and shall not be assigned, transferred or licensed out by the Guarantor or Franchise Entities to any other entity other than as permitted or provided under the Transaction Documents.

(d) Restrictions on Liens. The Manager shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume, permit or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Liens in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and any Permitted Lien set forth in clauses (a), (b) or (j) of the definition thereof) upon the Equity Interests of any Securitization Entity.

SECTION 6.
MANAGER TERMINATION EVENTS

(a) Manager Termination Events.

(a) Manager Termination Events. Any of the following acts or occurrences shall constitute a “Manager Termination Event” under this Agreement, the assertion as to the occurrence of which may be made, and notice of which may be given, by either a Securitization Entity, the Back-Up Manager, the Controlling Class Representative, the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) or the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Control Party):

(i) any failure by the Manager to remit a payment required to be deposited from the Concentration Account to the Collection Account or any other Indenture Trust Account, within three (3) Business Days of the later of (a) its Actual Knowledge of its receipt thereof and (b) the date such deposit is required to be made pursuant to the Transaction Documents; provided that any inadvertent failure to remit such a payment shall not be a breach of this clause (i) if in an amount less than $250,000 and corrected within three (3) Business Days after the Manager obtains Actual Knowledge thereof (it being understood that the Manager will not be responsible for the failure of the Trustee to remit funds that were received by the Trustee from or on behalf of the Manager in accordance with the applicable Transaction Documents);

(ii) the Interest-Only DSCR as calculated as of any Quarterly Calculation Date is less than or equal to 1.20x (for this purpose, either the P&I DSCR Deemed Principal Amortization Amount or clause (C) of the definition of “Debt Service” shall not apply when calculating the Interest-Only DSCR);

(iii) any failure by the Manager to provide any required certificate or report set forth in Sections 4.1(a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) or (h) of the Base Indenture within three (3) Business Days of its due date;

(iv) a material default by the Manager in the due performance and observance of any material provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than as described above) to which it is party and the continuation of such default for a period of 30 days after the Manager has been notified thereof in writing by any Securitization Entity or the Control Party; provided, however, that as long as the Manager is diligently attempting to cure such default (so long as such default is capable of being cured), such cure period shall be extended by an additional period as may be required to cure such default, but in no event by more than an additional 30 days;

(v) any representation, warranty or statement of the Manager made in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or in any certificate, report or other writing delivered pursuant thereto that is not qualified by materiality or the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” proves to be incorrect in any material respect, or any such representation, warranty or statement of the Manager that is qualified by materiality or the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” proves to be incorrect, in each case as of the time when the same was made or deemed to have been made or as of any other date specified in such document or agreement; provided that if any such breach is capable of being remedied within 30 days after the Manager has obtained Actual Knowledge of such breach or the Manager’s receipt of written notice thereof, then a Manager Termination Event shall only occur under this clause (v) as a result of such breach if it is not cured in all material respects by the end of such 30-day period;

(vi) an Event of Bankruptcy with respect to the Manager;

(vii) any final, non-appealable order, judgment or decree is entered in any proceedings against the Manager by a court of competent jurisdiction decreeing the dissolution of the Manager and such order, judgment or decree remains unstayed and in effect for more than ten days;

(viii) a final non-appealable judgment for an amount in excess of $15,000,000 (exclusive of any portion thereof which is insured) is rendered against the Manager by a court of competent jurisdiction and is not paid, discharged or stayed within 60 days of the date when due;

(ix) an acceleration of more than $15,000,000 of the Indebtedness of the Manager, which Indebtedness has not been discharged or which acceleration has not been rescinded and annulled;

(x) this Agreement or a material portion thereof ceases to be in full force and effect or enforceable in accordance with its terms (other than in accordance with the express termination provisions hereof) or the Manager asserts as much in writing; or

(xi) the occurrence of a Change in Management following the occurrence of a Change of Control.

If a Manager Termination Event has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Manager, the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) may (i) waive such Manager Termination Event (except for a Manager Termination Event described in clauses (vi) or (vii) above) or (ii) direct the Trustee in writing to terminate the Manager in its capacity as such by the delivery of a termination notice (a “Termination Notice”) to the Manager (with a copy to each of the Securitization Entities, the Back-Up Manager and the Rating Agencies, if any); provided that the delivery of a Termination Notice to Manager shall not be required in respect of any Manager Termination Event described in clause (vi) or (vii) above. If the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), delivers a Termination Notice to the Manager pursuant to this Agreement (or automatically upon the occurrence of any Manager Termination Event described in clause (vi) or (vii) above), all rights, powers, duties, obligations and responsibilities of the Manager under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (other than with respect to the payment of Indemnification Amounts or its obligations with respect to Disentanglement), including with respect to the Accounts or otherwise, will vest in and be assumed by the Successor Manager appointed by the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative). If no Successor Manager has been appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), the Back-Up Manager will serve as the Interim Successor Manager and will work with the Control Party to implement the Transition Plan (as such term is defined in the Back-Up Management Agreement) until a Successor Manager (other than the Back-Up Manager) has been appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, in no event shall the Trustee (A) be obligated to become (or be deemed to be) the Manager or Successor Manager or (B) have any obligation or responsibility to perform any of the duties or obligations of the Manager or Successor Manager.

(b) From and during the continuation of a Manager Termination Event, each Securitization Entity and the Trustee (acting at the direction of the Control Party) are hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Manager, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments (including any notices to Franchisees deemed necessary or advisable by the applicable Securitization Entity or the Control Party), and to do or accomplish all other acts or take other measures necessary or appropriate, to effect such vesting and assumption.

(b) Manager Termination Event Remedies. If the Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), delivers a Termination Notice to the Manager pursuant to Section 6.1(a) (or automatically upon the occurrence of any Manager Termination Event described in clauses (vi) or (vii) of Section 6.1(a)), all rights, powers, duties, obligations and responsibilities of the Manager under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including with respect to the Managed Assets, the Indenture Trust Accounts, the Management Accounts, the Advertising Fund Accounts or otherwise shall vest in and be assumed by the Successor Manager.

(a) Disentanglement. Following the delivery of a Termination Notice to the Manager pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.2 above or notice of resignation of the Manager pursuant to Section 4.4(b), the Manager shall cooperate with the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party in connection with the implementation of the Transition Plan and the complete transition to a Successor Manager (including in connection with any resignation of the Manager), without interruption or adverse impact on the provision of Services (the “Disentanglement”). The Manager will (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts during the Disentanglement Period to not materially reduce the existing staff and resources of the Manager devoted to or shared with the provision of the Services prior to the date of such Termination Notice and (ii) allow reasonable access to the Manager’s premises, systems and offices during the Disentanglement Period ((i) and (ii) being referred to as “Continuity of Services”). The Manager will cooperate fully with the Successor Manager and otherwise promptly take all actions reasonably required to assist in effecting a complete Disentanglement while providing Continuity of Services and, in connection therewith, will follow any directions that may be provided by the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party. The Manager will provide all information and assistance regarding the terminated Services required for Disentanglement and Continuity of Services, including data conversion and migration, interface specifications, and related professional services and provide for the prompt and orderly conclusion or transition of all work, as the Control Party and the Back-Up Manager may reasonably direct, including completion or partial completion of projects, documentation of all work in progress, and other measures to assure an orderly transition to the Successor Manager. All services relating to Disentanglement and Continuity of Services, including all reasonable training for personnel of the Back-Up Manager, the Successor Manager or the Successor Manager’s designated alternate service provider in the performance of the Services, will be deemed a part of the Services to be performed by the Manager.

(b) Fees and Charges for the Disentanglement Services. So long as the Manager continues to provide any Services during the Disentanglement Period (including following any removal, resignation or other termination of the Manager), the Manager will continue to be paid the Monthly Management Fee. Upon the Successor Manager’s assumption of the obligation to perform the applicable Services, the Manager will be further entitled to reimbursement of its actual costs for the provision of any Disentanglement services other than those related to Continuity of Services, which shall remain a separate obligation of the Manager.

(c) Duration of Obligations. The Manager’s obligation to provide Disentanglement services and Continuity of Services will continue during the Disentanglement Period.

(d) Sub-managing Arrangements; Authorizations.

(i) With respect to each Sub-managing Arrangement and unless the Control Party elects to terminate such Sub-managing Arrangement in accordance with Section 2.10, the Manager shall: (x) assign to the Successor Manager (or such Successor Manager’s designated alternate service provider) all of the Manager’s rights under such Sub-managing Arrangement to which it is party used by the Manager in performance of the transitioned Services; and (y) procure any third party authorizations necessary to grant the Successor Manager (or such Successor Manager’s designated alternate service provider) the use and benefit of such Sub-managing Arrangement to which it is party (used by the Manager in performing the transitioned Services), pending their assignment to the Successor Manager under this Agreement.

(ii) If the Control Party elects to terminate such Sub-managing Arrangement in accordance with Section 2.10, the Manager shall take all reasonable actions necessary or reasonably requested by the Control Party to accomplish a complete transition of the Services performed by such Sub-manager to the Successor Manager, or to any alternate service provider designated by the Control Party, without interruption or adverse impact on the provision of Services.

(d) Intellectual Property. Within thirty (30) days of termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Manager shall deliver and surrender up to the Guarantors (with a copy to the Successor Manager and the Control Party) any and all products, materials, or other physical objects containing the Trademarks included in the Securitization IP or Confidential Information of the Guarantors and any copies of copyrighted works included in the Securitization IP in the Manager’s possession or control, and shall terminate all use of all Securitization IP, including Trade Secrets; provided that (for the avoidance of doubt) any rights granted to Manager and the other Non-Securitization Entities as licensees pursuant to the Company Restaurant Licenses shall continue pursuant to the terms thereof notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement and/or Manager’s role as Manager.

(e) Third Party Intellectual Property. The Manager shall assist and fully cooperate with the Successor Manager or its designated alternate service provider in obtaining any necessary licenses or consents to use any third party Intellectual Property then being used by the Manager or any Sub-manager. The Manager shall assign, and shall cause each Sub-manager to assign, any such license or sublicense directly to the Successor Manager or its designated alternate service provider to the extent the Manager, or each Sub-manager, as applicable, has the rights to assign such agreements to the Successor Manager or such service provider without incurring any additional cost.

(f) No Effect on Other Parties. Upon any termination of the rights and powers of the Manager from time to time pursuant to Section 6.1 or upon any appointment of a Successor Manager, all the rights, powers, duties, obligations, and responsibilities of the Securitization Entities or the Trustee under this Agreement, the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents shall remain unaffected by such termination or appointment and shall remain in full force and effect thereafter, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in the Indenture.

(g) Rights Cumulative. All rights and remedies from time to time conferred upon or reserved to the Securitization Entities, the Trustee, the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager and the Noteholders or to any or all of the foregoing are cumulative, and none is intended to be exclusive of another or any other right or remedy which they may have at law or in equity. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no delay or omission in insisting upon the strict observance or performance of any provision of this Agreement, or in exercising any right or remedy, shall be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of such provision, nor shall it impair such right or remedy. Every such right and remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often as deemed expedient.

SECTION 7.
CONFIDENTIALITY

(a) Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that during the Term of this Agreement such party (the “Recipient”) may receive Confidential Information from another party hereto (the “Discloser”). Each such party (except for the Trustee, whose confidentiality obligations shall be governed in accordance with the Indenture) agrees to maintain the Confidential Information of the other party in the strictest of confidence and shall not, except as otherwise contemplated herein, at any time, use, disseminate or disclose any Confidential Information to any Person other than (i) its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (including legal counsel and accountants) or (ii) in the case of the Manager and the Securitization Entities, Franchisees and prospective Franchisees, suppliers or other service providers under written confidentiality agreements that contain provisions at least as protective as those set forth in this Agreement. The Recipient shall be liable for any breach of this Section 7.1 by any of its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives, Franchisees and prospective Franchisees, suppliers or other services providers and shall immediately notify Discloser in the event of any loss or disclosure of any Confidential Information of the Discloser. Upon termination of this Agreement, Recipient shall return to the Discloser, or at Discloser’s request, destroy, all documents and records in its possession containing the Confidential Information of the Discloser. Confidential Information shall not include information that: (A) is already known to Recipient without restriction on use or disclosure prior to receipt of such information from the Discloser; (B) is or becomes part of the public domain other than by breach of this Agreement by, or other wrongful act of, the Recipient; (C) is developed by the Recipient independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information of the Discloser; (D) is received by the Recipient from a third party who is not under any obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information; or (E) is required to be disclosed by applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, subpoena, court order or legal process; provided that the Recipient shall promptly inform the Discloser of any such requirement and cooperate with any attempt by the Discloser to obtain a protective order or other similar treatment. It shall be the obligation of Recipient to prove that such an exception to the definition of Confidential Information exists.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.1(a), the Parties may use, disseminate or disclose Confidential Information (other than Trade Secrets) to any Person in connection with the enforcement of rights of the Trustee or the Noteholders under the Indenture or the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that prior to disclosing any such Confidential Information:

(i) to any such Person other than in connection with any judicial or regulatory proceeding, such Person shall agree in writing to maintain such Confidential Information in a manner at least as protective of the Confidential Information as the terms of Section 7.1(a) and Recipient shall provide Discloser with the written opinion of counsel that such disclosure contains Confidential Information only to the extent necessary to facilitate the enforcement of such rights of the Trustee or the Noteholders; or

(ii) to any such Person or entity in connection with any judicial or regulatory proceeding, Recipient will (x) promptly notify Discloser of each such requirement and identify the documents so required thereby so that Discloser may seek an appropriate protective order or similar treatment and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement; (y) use reasonable efforts to assist Discloser in obtaining such protective order or other similar treatment protecting such Confidential Information prior to any such disclosure; and (z) consult with Discloser on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow the scope of such requirement. If, in the absence of such a protective order or similar treatment, the Recipient is nonetheless required by law to disclose any part of Discloser’s Confidential Information, then the Recipient may disclose such Confidential Information without liability under this Agreement, except that the Recipient will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required.

SECTION 8.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

(a) Termination of Agreement. The respective duties and obligations of the Manager and the Securitization Entities created by this Agreement commenced on the Closing Date and shall, unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 6.1(a), terminate upon the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Base Indenture (the “Term”).

(i) to correct or amplify the description of any required activities of the Manager;

(ii) to add to the duties or covenants of the Manager for the benefit of any Noteholders or any other Secured Parties, or to add provisions to this Agreement so long as such action does not modify the Managing Standard, adversely affect the enforceability of the Securitization IP, or materially adversely affect the interests of the Noteholders;

Without limiting the foregoing, the Manager hereby acknowledges that, on the Closing Date, the Issuer has pledged to the Trustee under the Indenture, all of its right and title to, and interest in, this Agreement and the Collateral, and such pledge includes all of the Issuer’s rights, remedies, powers and privileges, and all claims against the Manager, under or with respect to this Agreement (whether arising pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise available at law or in equity), including (i) the rights of such Issuer and the obligations of the Manager hereunder and (ii) the right, at any time, to give or withhold consents, requests, notices, directions, approvals, demands, extensions or waivers under or with respect to this Agreement or the obligations in respect of the Manager hereunder to the same extent as such Issuer may do.

To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law that renders any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable in any respect.

(h) Delivery Dates. If the due date of any notice, certificate or report required to be delivered by the Manager hereunder falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such notice, certificate or report shall be automatically extended to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day.

This Agreement, together with the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents and the Managed Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Within two (2) Business Days of obtaining Actual Knowledge of the occurrence and continuance of any Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event, the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Back-Up Manager, the Control Party or the Trustee, as applicable, shall notify each other in writing of such occurrence. Upon receipt of notice by the Back-Up Manager of such Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event, the Back-Up Manager shall commence performance of the following duties (collectively, the “Warm Back-Up Management Duties”) and will, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice of such Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event, have taken all steps reasonably necessary to enable it to provide such duties:

(a) performing an in-depth situation analysis of the Manager and its financial position and of the Collateral and the Securitization Entities, based on information provided to the Back-Up Manager pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Indenture. In connection with such analysis, the Back-Up Manager shall analyze, inter alia, (1) the key drivers of historical performance, (2) the strategic business plan for the Securitization Entities to determine weaknesses (if any) and viability, and (3) the causes of poor performance, including pricing, cost structure and leverage;

(b) generating revised projections (including cash forecasts, income statements and balance sheets) for the Securitization Entities and the Collateral, which projections will be based on, inter alia, variance analyses and stress tests to sensitize forecasts and incorporate changes to the models utilized in connection with the offering of the Notes (only to the extent provided to the Back-Up Manager);

(c) to the degree relevant based upon the Back-Up Manager’s analysis of the situation and at the written direction of the Control Party, identifying alternative suppliers and providers of services in connection with the Securitization Entities;

(d) at the written direction of the Control Party, obtaining, at the Issuer’s cost, appraisals and valuations of the Collateral; and

(e) developing a comprehensive transition plan (the “Transition Plan”) with the assistance and oversight of the Control Party to prepare for a transition to a Successor Manager if the Manager is terminated following the occurrence of a Manager Termination Event, pursuant to which the Back-Up Manager shall, based on the circumstances related to such Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event:

(i) in consultation with the Manager identify personnel then-employed by the Manager that could assist in the transfer of the Manager’s duties and obligations, including the transfer of accounting, receivables, payables, finance, payroll and other financial services, to a Successor Manager; and

(ii) in consultation with the Manager identify and recommend individuals from the Manager’s existing management team, the Back-Up Manager’s own organization and from other organizations that could perform obligations under this Agreement and the Management Agreement.

Any Transition Plan may include, but is not limited to, a recommendation to either terminate the Manager’s position as Manager under the Management Agreement or re-engage the Manager to serve as Manager under the Management Agreement. The Back-Up Manager will first submit the Transition Plan to the Control Party for the approval of the Control Party, and to the extent such approval is not granted, both the Back-Up Manager and the Control Party will continue to work in good faith to achieve such approval.

Under no circumstances will the Transition Plan be finalized or implemented prior to (a) the approval of the Transition Plan by the initial Control Party (or any appointed successor Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative) and (b) the occurrence of a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event. For the avoidance of doubt, if a Control Party transition period is occurring, the Back-Up Manager will be permitted to await the appointment of a successor Control Party (and acceptance of such role) before taking any action described in Section 2.4(e) for which it would otherwise receive direction from the Control Party or a Controlling Class Representative.

(f) The Control Party, acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative, may waive performance of all or part of the Warm Back-Up Management Duties upon written notice to each of the Back-Up Manager, the Trustee (which shall provide such notice to the Noteholders) and the Issuer.

(e) Hot Back-Up Management Duties. For purposes of this Section 2.5, a “Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event” shall mean the occurrence and continuation of a Manager Termination Event that has not been waived by the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative).

(a) If a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing, the Control Party (at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative) may direct the Trustee to deliver a termination notice (a “Termination Notice”) to terminate the Manager pursuant to Section 6.1(a) of the Management Agreement (with a copy to the Issuer and the Back-Up Manager). Delivery of a Termination Notice from the Trustee to the Manager will not be required to terminate the Manager in respect of a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event caused by a Manager Termination Event described in clauses (vi) or (vii) of the definition thereof, for which termination of the Manager shall be automatic; provided, that, in the event that the Manager is terminated pursuant to Sections 6.1(a)(vi) or (vii) of the Management Agreement (which events result in an automatic termination of the Manager without any requirement of a grant of notice to the Manager) the Control Party shall still direct the Trustee to deliver a termination notice to each of the Manager, the Issuer and the Back-Up Manager. Promptly following receipt of a copy of a Termination Notice, the Back-Up Manager shall perform the following additional duties (collectively, the “Hot Back-Up Management Duties”):

(i) the Warm Back-Up Management Duties (to the extent the Back-Up Manager has not yet performed or completed such duties as of the date of the occurrence of such Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event);

(ii) finalize and implement the Transition Plan, and, if so requested by the Control Party in writing, assist the Control Party in identifying one or more Persons other than the Back-Up Manager to act as Successor Manager, within ninety (90) calendar days following the occurrence of such Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event; and

(iii) take over the management of the Securitization Entities and initiate reasonable steps necessary or advisable in connection with stabilizing the condition of the Securitization Entities, pending the appointment of a Successor Manager, to: (A) exercise full inspection and audit rights against the Securitization Entities and to protect the Collateral and the condition and value thereof, (B) restructure and re-negotiate one or more Transaction Documents previously entered into by any Securitization Entity, (C) make and implement personnel decisions, (D) hire external consultants and other qualified Persons to facilitate operations, and (E) assist the Control Party in connection with its liquidation of the Collateral, to the extent allowed under the Transaction Documents or applicable Requirements of Law, if reasonably necessary, subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions to such actions under the applicable Transaction Documents.

(b) Until a Successor Manager is appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), the Back-Up Manager will serve as the Interim Successor Manager and will work with the Manager to implement a Transition Plan until a Successor Manager (other than the Back-Up Manager) has been appointed. If the Back-Up Manager serves as the Interim Successor Manager or the Successor Manager, subject to the provisions of Section 2.5(c), the Back-Up Manager will act only in consultation with, and at the direction of, the Control Party (and, if otherwise required under the Transaction Documents, the Securitization Entities). In such case, subject to the provisions of Section 2.5(c), the Control Party shall be required to continue to work with the Back-Up Manager to implement the Transition Plan until a Successor Manager (other than the Back-Up Manager) has been appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative).

(c) Notwithstanding the above, following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event, if a Control Party transition period is occurring, the Back-Up Manager will be permitted to await the appointment of a successor Control Party (and acceptance of such role) before taking any action described in Section 2.5(b) for which it would otherwise receive direction from the Control Party or a Controlling Class Representative.

(f) Cooperation. The Securitization Entities and the Manager agree to fully and promptly cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Back-Up Manager in connection with the performance by the Back-Up Manager of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (including in connection with a Consent Request, as well as in connection with any duty by the Back-Up Manager to obtain an appraisal of the Collateral, or perform an in-depth situation analysis of the Manager and its financial position and/or of the Collateral and/or the Securitization Entities during a Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event or a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event, as applicable).

Direction of Controlling Class Representative. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, in carrying out the foregoing duties hereunder and under any of the Transaction Documents, the Back-Up Manager shall be entitled to rely on and take direction from the Controlling Class Representative (including relying on any consent, direction or approval the Back-Up Manager receives from the Majority of Controlling Class Members, which the Back-Up Manager can rely on, with no liability for such, as confirmation that any such consent, direction or approval of the Controlling Class Representative has been satisfied). For the avoidance of doubt, the Back-Up Manager shall not be responsible for soliciting the consent of the Majority of Controlling Class Members acting as the Controlling Class Representative. Upon any dispute between the Controlling Class Representative and the Majority of Controlling Class Members, a written direction from the Majority of Controlling Class Members shall control, and the Back-Up Manager shall be entitled to rely on any such consent, direction or approval from the Majority of Controlling Class Members as approval from the “Controlling Class Representative” under the Transaction Documents without liability to it for such reliance.

SECTION 3.

INFORMATION

(a) Information Provided by Manager. Upon request, the Manager will provide the Back-Up Manager with the certificates and reports listed in Section 2.3(a) (which may be provided by accessing the Trustee’s or the Manager’s password-protected website) and any other information reasonably requested by the Back-Up Manager to perform its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager shall not require the Manager to produce reports or other information that the Manager does not currently produce or which, in the reasonable judgment of the Manager, would be unreasonably expensive or burdensome to prepare or produce. The Manager shall also provide the Back-Up Manager with (x) any amendments to any Transaction Documents and (y) copies of all Transaction Documents for each Series of Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture. The Securitization Entities and the Manager agree to fully and promptly cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Back-Up Manager for information or access (during normal business hours and subject to reasonable prior notice) to management team members with respect to the Back-Up Manager’s provision of all Warm Back-Up Management Duties and all Hot Back-Up Management Duties during the continuation of a Warm Back-Up Management Trigger Event or a Hot Back-Up Management Trigger Event, or if a Consent Request is then under review and pending.

(b) Reliance on Information. In connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Back-Up Manager is entitled to conclusively rely upon and shall have no liability for actions taken or not taken in reasonable reliance upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, report, notice, request, direction, consent or other written information reasonably believed by it to be genuine and provided to it by or on behalf of the Manager, the Securitization Entities, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative and/or the Trustee without the obligation to investigate the accuracy or completeness of any such certification or other written information.

(c) Delivery of Information by Back-Up Manager. Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee, the Manager, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative pursuant to Article 2 is for informational purposes only and the receipt by the Trustee, the Manager, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative of such reports shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Securitization Entities’, the Manager’s, the Trustee’s, the Control Party’s, the Controlling Class Representative’s or any other entity’s compliance with any of its covenants under any of the Transaction Documents (as to which the Trustee, the Manager, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative are entitled to rely on officer’s certificates from such entities).

SECTION 4.

COMPENSATION, EXPENSES AND INDEMNITY

(a) Compensation. As compensation for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, in addition to the payment of Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fees in accordance with Section 4.3, the Back-Up Manager shall be entitled to (i) a fee as agreed upon under a separate fee letter among the Manager, the Issuer and the Back-Up Manager and (ii) reimbursement of reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses pursuant to and in accordance with Section 4.2 ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “Back-Up Manager Fee”). The Back-Up Manager Fees and any Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fees (if not otherwise paid at the closing of a Consent Request) shall be payable as Securitization Operating Expenses on each Monthly Allocation Date only from amounts available therefor under the Indenture pursuant to and in accordance with the Priority of Payments. For the avoidance of doubt, in performing its duties as Back-Up Manager, Interim Successor Manager or as Successor Manager, in no event shall the Back-Up Manager be required to advance any of its own funds.

(b) Reimbursable Costs. The Securitization Entities shall reimburse the Back-Up Manager for all reasonable and documented disbursements, expenses and out-of-pocket costs incurred or made by it in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement; provided that with respect to such disbursements, expenses and out-of-pocket costs included within the Back-Up Manager Fees only (and not any expenses associated with a Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fee, which shall be governed solely by Section 4.3), (a) in the performance of its Cold Back-Up Management Duties, the Back-Up Manager must receive the prior written approval of the Issuer and the Manager prior to incurring expenses anticipated to exceed $10,000 in the aggregate per trip or single occurrence, and reimbursements under this Section 4.2 shall not exceed $15,000 per annum without the prior written approval of the Manager, (b) in the performance of its Warm Back-Up Management Duties, the Back-Up Manager must receive the prior written approval of the Control Party prior to incurring expenses anticipated to exceed $12,000 in the aggregate per trip or single occurrence, and reimbursements under this Section 4.2 shall not exceed $75,000 per annum without the prior written approval of the Control Party, and (c) in the performance of its Hot Back-Up Management Duties, the Back-Up Manager must receive the prior written approval of the Control Party prior to incurring expenses anticipated to exceed $15,000 in the aggregate per trip or single occurrence, and reimbursements under this Section 4.2 shall not exceed $100,000 per annum without the prior written approval of the Control Party. Such reimbursements of costs and expenses shall include the reasonable and documented compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Back-Up Manager’s agents and outside counsel. The Securitization Entities shall not be required to reimburse any expense incurred by the Back-Up Manager through the Back-Up Manager’s own fraud, bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence. Any reimbursable costs and expenses pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be payable to the Back-Up Manager as Securitization Operating Expenses on each Monthly Allocation Date only out of amounts available therefor under the Indenture in accordance with the Priority of Payments on such Monthly Allocation Date.

(c) Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fee. In the event that the Control Party elects, in its sole discretion, to consult with the Back-Up Manager with respect to any Consent Request, the Securitization Entities shall be obligated to pay a consulting fee (regardless of whether such consent, approval, amendment, waiver, modification or other action is given or consummated) to the Back-Up Manager, together with reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Back-Up Manager in connection with any such consultation (collectively, the “Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fee”) commensurate with the complexity and time required for such consultation. In connection with a Consent Request, the Back-Up Manager shall provide a fee range estimate prior to the commencement of such consultation services (such fee range estimate to be approved in writing in advance by the Control Party) and shall not exceed that estimate without the prior written consent of the Control Party and the Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that the Back-Up Manager will not be required to provide any further consultation services in connection with the related Consent Request if it has not received such required consent(s). Each Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fee, including, without limitation, any related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Back-Up Manager in connection therewith, will be paid to the Back-Up Manager at the closing of the Consent Request and as a condition precedent thereto. Any such amounts due in connection with a Consent Request and not otherwise paid at the closing of a Consent Request will be paid to the Back-Up Manager on the next Monthly Allocation Date as a Securitization Operating Expense.

(d) Indemnification and Limitation of Liability of the Back-Up Manager.

(a) The Back-Up Manager will indemnify each of the Securitization Entities and their respective members, officers, directors, managers, employees and agents for all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees, liabilities, obligations, damages, actions, suits, and related costs and judgments and other costs, fees and reasonable expenses that any of them may incur as a result of: (i) the material breach by the Back-Up Manager of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement or (ii) the Back-Up Manager’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior in the performance of its duties under this Agreement; provided, that the Back-Up Manager will have no obligation of indemnity to any such party to the extent any such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees, liabilities, obligations, damages, actions, suits, and related costs and judgments and other costs, fees and reasonable expenses are caused by such party’s gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior.

(b) Except as set forth in clause (a) above, neither the Back-Up Manager nor any of its members, officers, directors, managers, employees or agents (collectively, the “Back-Up Manager Indemnified Parties”) shall be under any liability to the Securitization Entities, the Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative, the Trustee, or the Noteholders for any action taken, or not taken, by the Back-Up Manager in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for any action taken, or not taken by Back-Up Manager in good faith pursuant to this Agreement due to the Manager or any other party (including the Control Party) failing to comply with the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents (including but not limited to the Management Agreement, the Control Party Agreement and this Agreement) after reasonable request therefor (it being understood that such a reasonable request shall not be construed to require the Back-Up Manager to affirmatively take any legal, administrative, judicial or other action to enforce the provisions of the Transaction Documents), or for errors in judgment made in good faith by the Back-Up Manager unless it is proven that the Back-Up Manager was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Back-Up Manager Indemnified Parties against liability for any material breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made by the Back-Up Manager herein, or against any expense or liability specifically required to be borne thereby by the Back-Up Manager without right of reimbursement pursuant to the terms hereof, or against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior in the performance of the Back-Up Manager’s obligations or duties hereunder or by reason of the Back-Up Manager’s grossly negligent disregard of such obligations or duties. The Back-Up Manager Indemnified Parties may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

(c) The Securitization Entities shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Back-Up Manager Indemnified Parties from and against any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees, liabilities, obligations, damages, actions, suits and related costs and judgments and other costs, fees and reasonable expenses that any of them may incur arising out of or incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Notes, any other Transaction Document or any of the Collateral, other than any such claim, loss, penalty, fine, forfeiture, legal fee, liability, obligation, damage, action, suit and related costs, judgments or other costs, fees or reasonable expenses: (i) specifically required to be borne by the Back-Up Manager pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise incidental to the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement without right of reimbursement pursuant to the terms thereof; or (ii) that was incurred in connection with claims against the Back-Up Manager resulting from (A) any material breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made herein by the Back-Up Manager or (B) the gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior of the Back-Up Manager.

(d) The Back-Up Manager shall not be under any obligation under this Agreement to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and in its opinion does not involve it in any ultimate expense or liability; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager may, in its discretion, undertake any such action which it may reasonably deem necessary or desirable with respect to the enforcement and/or protection of its rights and duties. In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action, and any liability resulting therefrom, shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Securitization Entities (except to the extent contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 4.4(c)) and the Back-Up Manager shall be entitled to the direct payment of such expense, or to be reimbursed therefor. All indemnities and reimbursements payable to the Back-Up Manager Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be payable out of funds on deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

(e) In the exercise and performance of its duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the Transaction Documents, the Back-Up Manager (i) may act directly or through agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them and (ii) may, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.4(d), at its own expense if it is acting solely on its own behalf and not on behalf of or for the benefit of the Noteholders, consult with counsel, accountants and other professionals or experts selected and monitored by the Back-Up Manager in good faith and in the absence of gross negligence, and the Back-Up Manager shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts.

(f) No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Back-Up Manager under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith, against any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Back-Up Manager, in its individual capacity, any holder of equity in the Back-Up Manager or in any successor or assign of the Back-Up Manager in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed in writing.

(g) In no event will the Back-Up Manager or any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Back-Up Manager be held liable for any exemplary, punitive, special, indirect or consequential damages of any kind resulting from any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under this Agreement. Additionally, the Back-Up Manager will not be liable for any claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees, liabilities, obligations, damages, actions suits and related costs and judgments and other costs, fees and reasonable expenses, suffered by any party to any of the Transaction Documents arising out of or caused by any delay in, or failure of, performance by the Back-Up Manager, in whole or in part, arising out of, or caused by, circumstances beyond the Back-Up Manager’s control, including, without limitation: acts of God, earthquakes, fires, floods, wars, civil or military disturbances, sabotage, epidemics, pandemics, riots, interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service, accidents, labor disputes, acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions, natural disasters, floods, earthquakes, fires or other catastrophe or similar occurrences (it being understood that the Back-Up Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances).

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Transaction Document to the contrary, (a) if the Manager fails to fulfill any of its duties or obligations (including, but not limited to, providing the Back-Up Manager with reasonably requested information or access to management team members on a timely basis) or fails to otherwise cooperate with the Back-Up Manager, as required under any of the Transaction Documents, in all cases, as determined by the Back-Up Manager in its sole discretion, then to the extent such failure results in the Back-Up Manager not being able to fulfill any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Back-Up Manager will have no obligation to perform such duties or obligations and (b) if the Manager fails to fulfill any of its services or duties required pursuant to the Management Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including but not limited to the provision of disentanglement services), the Back-Up Manager shall have no duty or obligation to provide such services or duties (including as Interim Successor Manager or Successor Manager), and, in the cases of clauses (a) and (b), the Back-Up Manager will have no liability for such action or inaction in connection therewith.

(i) Following the termination or resignation of the Back-Up Manager pursuant to Section 7.1 or 7.2 of this Agreement, the Back-Up Manager is entitled to receive all accrued and unpaid Back-Up Manager Fees and Back-Up Manager Consent Consultation Fees and any unpaid indemnification payments then due and payable through the effective date of termination or resignation (to the extent the Back-Up Manager is entitled to payment thereof) and the Securitization Entities shall pay all such amounts to the Back-Up Manager in accordance with the Priority of Payments promptly following the termination or resignation of the Back-Up Manager.

SECTION 5.

THE BACK-UP MANAGER

(a) Representations and Warranties Concerning the Back-Up Manager. The Back-Up Manager represents and warrants to the Securitization Entities and the Trustee, as of the date hereof (except if otherwise expressly noted), as follows:

(a) Organization and Good Standing. It is a duly organized, validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization. It has full corporate power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Power and Authority. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance by the Back-Up Manager of its duties hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary action on its part.

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not (i) conflict with any provision of the certificate of incorporation of the Back-Up Manager or the by-laws of the Back-Up Manager, (ii) violate or result in a breach of any material contract to which the Back-Up Manager is a party or (iii) violate any law to which the Back-Up Manager is subject, except, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) for such violation or breaches which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets, liabilities or financial condition of the Back-Up Manager or a material adverse effect on the ability of the Back-Up Manager’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

(d) Due Execution and Delivery. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Back-Up Manager and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Back-Up Manager, enforceable against the Back-Up Manager in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be limited by the Bankruptcy Code and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity) or by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(e) No Litigation. There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Back-Up Manager, threatened in writing against or affecting the Back-Up Manager, before or by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Back-Up Manager with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement asserting the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability, or seeking any determination or ruling that would affect the legality, binding effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

(b) Limitations of Responsibility of the Back-Up Manager. The Back-Up Manager will have no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith and, to the extent applicable, consistent with this Agreement.

(c) Right to Receive Instructions. In the event that the Back-Up Manager is unable to decide between alternative courses of action, or is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or any such provision is, in the good faith judgment of the Back-Up Manager, ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement or any Transaction Document permits any determination by the Back-Up Manager or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Back-Up Manager is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Back-Up Manager may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances and as permitted by the terms of this Agreement) to the Control Party requesting instructions in accordance with the Base Indenture and, to the extent that the Back-Up Manager shall have acted or refrained from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instructions received from the Control Party, the Back-Up Manager shall not be liable on account of such action or inaction to any Person. If the Back-Up Manager shall not have received appropriate instructions from the Control Party within ten (10) days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time reasonably appropriate under the circumstances as may be specified in such notice) the Back-Up Manager may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, as the Back-Up Manager shall deem to be in the best interests of the Noteholders and the Securitization Entities. The Back-Up Manager shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction taken in reliance on the preceding sentence except for the Back-Up Manager’s own gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior.

(d) Independent Contractor. In performing its obligations as Back-Up Manager hereunder the Back-Up Manager acts solely as an independent contractor of each of the Securitization Entities, the Manager, the Control Party and the Controlling Class Representative. Nothing in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, create or constitute any joint venture, partnership, employment, or any other relationship between any Securitization Entity, the Trustee, the Manager, the Control Party or the Controlling Class Representative and the Back-Up Manager other than the independent contractor contractual relationship established hereby. The Back-Up Manager shall not be, nor shall be deemed to be, liable for any acts or obligations of the Securitization Entities, the Manager, the Control Party, the Controlling Class Representative or the Trustee and, without limiting the foregoing, the Back-Up Manager shall not be liable under or in connection with the Notes.

(e) Intellectual Xxxxxxxx.Xx the event that Back-Up Manager becomes the Successor Manager or Interim Successor Manager, the parties agree that the license to Manager of Securitization IP in connection with performing the Services, as set forth in the Management Agreement, shall apply, in the same way it applies to the Manager, to Back-Up Manager’s use of Securitization IP in connection with performing the Services; provided, however, that in no event shall the Back-Up Manager (including in its role as Successor Manager or Interim Successor Manager) assume or be responsible for any financial obligations or liabilities of the Manager under the Management Agreement or as a result of this Section 5.5.

SECTION 6.

CONFIDENTIALITY

(a) Confidentiality. “Confidential Information” means trade secrets and other information (including, without limitation, know how, ideas, techniques, recipes, formulas, customer lists, customer information, financial information, business methods and processes, marketing plans, specifications, and other similar information as well as internal materials prepared by the owner of such information containing or based, in whole or in part, on any such information) that is confidential and proprietary to its owner and that is disclosed by one party to an agreement to another party thereto whether in writing or disclosed orally, and whether or not designated as confidential.

(a) The Back-Up Manager acknowledges that during the term of this Agreement it may receive Confidential Information from any Non-Securitization Entity, the Securitization Entities and the Manager. The Back-Up Manager agrees to maintain the Confidential Information in the strictest of confidence and will not, at any time, use, disseminate or disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity other than those of its employees or representatives who have a “need to know” and who have been apprised of this restriction except as expressly provided in this Agreement. The Back-Up Manager shall be liable for any breach of this Article 6 by any of its employees or any action, or use or disclosure of Confidential Information by any of its representatives which would have constituted a breach of this Article 6 had such representative been a party hereto and shall immediately notify the Manager in the event of any loss or disclosure of any Confidential Information. Confidential Information shall not include information that: (i) is already known to the Back-Up Manager without restriction on use or disclosure prior to receipt of such information from any Non-Securitization Entity, a Securitization Entity or the Manager; (ii) is or becomes part of the public domain other than by breach of this Agreement by, or other wrongful act of, the Back-Up Manager or its employees or representatives; (iii) is developed by the Back-Up Manager independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information; (iv) is received by the Back-Up Manager from a third party who is not under any obligation to any Non-Securitization Entity, the Securitization Entities or the Manager to maintain the confidentiality of such information, (v) is required to be disclosed by applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, subpoena, court order or legal process; provided that the Back-Up Manager promptly notifies the Issuer and the Manager of such requirement and reasonably cooperates with the Issuer and the Manager to minimize the extent of such disclosure or (vi) is required to be disclosed to any Person in connection with the enforcement of rights of the parties to this Agreement. The duties hereunder shall survive termination of this Agreement and (A) for trade secret information, shall continue for as long as such information remains a trade secret under applicable law, and (B) for all other Confidential Information, shall continue for three years after the term of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.1.

(b) All books, records, documents, papers or other materials relating to any Non-Securitization Entity’s, the Securitization Entities’ or the Manager’s business, Intellectual Property, customers, suppliers, distributors, franchisees, products or projects received by the Back-Up Manager containing Confidential Information or other proprietary information or trade secrets of any Non-Securitization Entity, any Securitization Entity or the Manager, including any copies thereof shall at all times be and remain the property of the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager, as the case may be, and shall be destroyed or returned immediately to the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager, as the case may be, upon termination of this Agreement, or earlier at the request of the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager may retain such limited media and materials containing Confidential Information for customary archival and audit purposes (including with respect to regulatory compliance) only for reference with respect to the prior dealings between the parties and subject to the confidentiality terms of this Agreement. To the extent the Back-Up Manager is required to return or destroy materials containing the Non-Securitization Entities’, Securitization Entities’ or the Manager’s Confidential Information as described in this Section 6.1(b), the Back-Up Manager shall provide a certificate of an authorized employee attesting to the return and/or destruction of such materials upon request.

(c) Nothing in this Article 6 shall be construed as preventing any Non-Securitization Entity, all of which shall be third-party beneficiaries of the rights arising under this Article 6, as applicable, the Securitization Entities, the Manager or the Trustee from pursuing any and all remedies available to it for the breach or threatened breach of covenants made in this Article 6, including, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.4(g), recovery of money damages or temporary or permanent injunctive relief.

(d) It is understood that nothing in this Agreement is intended to preclude the Back-Up Manager or its affiliates from engaging in related types of consulting work with other firms or organizations, whether in a related business or otherwise; provided that reasonable and proper professional safeguards are maintained to ensure that Confidential Information is not made available to such other firms or organizations.

SECTION 7.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

(a) Term; Termination of Agreement. The duties and obligations of the Back-Up Manager under this Agreement shall continue for a period of seven (7) years from the date hereof, and will automatically renew for one (1) year periods on each anniversary, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated by the Trustee, acting at the direction of the Control Party at any time, by providing five (5) days’ prior written notice thereof to the Manager, the Back-Up Manager, the Issuer and the Control Party. This Agreement will also terminate upon (a) the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article 12 of the Base Indenture, (b) the assumption by the Back-Up Manager of all rights and obligations of the Manager as a Successor Manager appointed by the Control Party (acting at the direction of the Controlling Class Representative), (c) the resignation of the Back-Up Manager pursuant to Section 7.2 or (d) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Managed Asset.

Any such determination above requiring the Back-Up Manager’s resignation will be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect, delivered to the Trustee, the Control Party, the Issuer and the Manager. In addition, the Back-Up Manager will be permitted to resign if either:

(i) the Back-Up Manager Fee due and owing to the Back-Up Manager remains unpaid for more than sixty (60) days after it becomes due and payable pursuant to an invoice for Back-Up Manager Fees that has been delivered pursuant to the notification methods specified in Section 7.8; or

(ii) the Issuer intends to issue a new Series of Notes after the Closing Date (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Notes issued on the Closing Date) and the Back-Up Manager chooses, in its sole discretion, to resign as Back-Up Manager by providing written notice of its decision to the Issuer within 15 Business Days of the earliest of receipt by the Back-Up Manager, of (A) written notice from the Issuer of such intent to issue a new Series of Notes, (B) written invitation to an initial organizational call for such issuance of a new Series of Notes (or subsequent organizational call related thereto) or (C) a draft copy of an offering memorandum or other transaction document in connection with such issuance of a new Series of Notes.

(c) Amendment. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or waived from time to time by a writing signed by the parties hereto; provided that no consent of the Trustee or the Control Party will be required in connection with any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver thereto expressly permitted under the terms of the Indenture.

Any amendment or modification effected contrary to the provisions of this Section 7.3 shall be null and void. Unless otherwise specified in such waiver, a waiver of any right under this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given. No election not to exercise, failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right, nor any course of dealing or performance, shall operate as a waiver of any right under this Agreement or applicable law, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other for further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right under this Agreement or applicable law.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that the Back-Up Manager may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Issuer, the Manager, and the Control Party.

(f) Acknowledgement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Back-Up Manager hereby acknowledges that, on the date hereof, the Securitization Entities will pledge to the Trustee under the Indenture and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as applicable, all of such Securitization Entities’ right and title to, and interest in, this Agreement and the Collateral, and such pledge includes all of such Securitization Entities’ rights, remedies, powers and privileges, and all claims of such Securitization Entities’ against the Back-Up Manager, under or with respect to this Agreement (whether arising pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise available at law or in equity), including (i) the rights of such Securitization Entities and the obligations of the Back-Up Manager hereunder and (ii) the right, at any time, to give or withhold consents, requests, notices, directions, approvals, demands, extensions or waivers under or with respect to this Agreement or the obligations in respect of the Back-Up Manager hereunder to the same extent as such Securitization Entities may do. The Back-Up Manager hereby consents to such pledges described above, acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Control Party shall be a third-party beneficiary of the rights of such Securitization Entities arising hereunder and (y) the Trustee and the Control Party may, to the extent provided in the Indenture and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, enforce the provisions of this Agreement, exercise the rights of such Securitization Entities and enforce the obligations of the Back-Up Manager hereunder without the consent of such Securitization Entities.

Any prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof are superseded by this Agreement, the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.

(k) Severability of Provisions. If one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for any reason whatever held invalid or unenforceable, such provisions shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements and provisions of this Agreement and such invalidity or unenforceability shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of such remaining provisions, or the rights of any parties hereto. To the extent permitted by law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law that renders any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable in any respect.

(l) Binding Effect; Limited Rights of Others. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto. Except as provided in the preceding sentence and in Section 6.1(c), Section 7.4 and Section 7.6, nothing in this Agreement expressed or implied, shall be construed to give any Person other than the parties hereto any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenants, agreements, representations or provisions contained herein.

This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in several counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic means of communication), each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, any reference to “written” or “in writing” means any form of written communication, including, without limitation, electronic signatures, and any such written communication may be transmitted by Electronic Transmission. “Electronic Transmission” means any form of communication not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, including the use of, or participation in, one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed electronic networks or databases), that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

CONTROL PARTY AGREEMENT

CONTROL PARTY AGREEMENT, dated as of December 15, 2021 (this “Agreement”), between Fat Brands Fazoli’s Native I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Issuer”), and Citadel SPV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as Control Party (in such capacity, the “Control Party”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the Issuer and UMB Bank, National Association, not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and securities intermediary (in such capacity, the “Securities Intermediary”) will enter into that certain Base Indenture, dated as of December 15, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”);

WHEREAS the Issuer and the Trustee will enter into a Series 2021-1 Supplement, to be dated as of December 15, 2021 (the “Series Supplement” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) by and among the Issuer, the Trustee and the Securities Intermediary, pursuant to which the Issuer will issue certain classes of asset-backed notes (the “Notes”);

WHEREAS, in connection with the Indenture, the Issuer will enter into certain other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Indenture);

WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to have the Control Party perform certain actions and provide certain consents and approvals under the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents; and

WHEREAS, the Control Party is willing to perform such actions and provide such consents and approvals under the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions.

(a) Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture or the Transaction Documents, as applicable. In the event any term used herein is defined by reference to an agreement that has been terminated (or to any exhibit, annex, schedule or other document attached thereto), unless the context otherwise requires, such term shall have the definition set forth in such agreement (or to such exhibit, annex, schedule or other document) immediately prior to such agreement’s termination.

(b) Agreements and Instruments. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any instrument or certificate delivered in connection herewith means such agreement, instrument or statute as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time and includes (in the case of agreements or instruments) references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein; references to a Person are also to its successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 2. Appointment of the Control Party.

(a) Control Party Duties Under the Transaction Documents. The Issuer hereby appoints Citadel SPV LLC to act as the initial Control Party under the Transaction Documents. The Control Party agrees to perform the duties and actions and provide the consents and approvals that are required to be performed or provided by the Control Party under the Transaction Documents.

(b) Control Party to Take Direction of Controlling Class Representative. InNotwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transaction Documents, in carrying out the foregoing duties hereunder and under any of the Transaction Documents, the Control Party shall be entitled to seek and take direction from the Controlling Class Representative as ~~set forth~~defined in the ~~Transaction Documents~~Indenture. In the event the Controlling Class Representative has not been appointed or the Controlling Class Representative or Majority of Controlling Class Members fails to respond to a request for direction after ten (10) Business Days, then the Control Party may exercise its good faith discretion in connection with any action required to be taken by the Control Party pursuant to the Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the Control Party shall not be responsible for soliciting the consent of the Majority of Controlling Class Members acting as the Controlling Class Representative. Upon any dispute between the Controlling Class Representative and the Majority of Controlling Class Members, a written direction from the Majority of Controlling Class Members shall control.

SECTION 3. Compensation.

For the Control Party’s services hereunder, the Issuer shall pay to the Control Party a one-time implementation fee in the amount of $5,000 and an annual fee in the amount of $10,000, which annual fee shall be payable quarterly in equal installments of $2,500. All amounts payable by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 3 (other than the implementation fee) shall be paid as Securitization Operating Expenses solely in accordance with the Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 5.10 of the Base Indenture).

SECTION 4. Expenses; Reimbursement.

The Control Party shall be responsible for all of its own ordinary overhead costs, including office space and utilities and compensation for its personnel. The Issuer shall be responsible for all other reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Control Party in connection with the performance of its obligations under the Indenture and the other Transaction Documents, including without limitation any such costs and expenses incurred in connection with coordinating or otherwise dealing with the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative, the Noteholders, the Manager, the Backup Manager or the Indenture Trustee. All amounts payable by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 4 shall be paid as Securitization Operating Expenses solely in accordance with the Indenture (including Section 5.10 thereof).

SECTION 5. Exculpation; Indemnification.

(a) The Control Party shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith and in the absence of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order) which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers under the Transaction Documents. The Control Party shall not be responsible for any act or omission of the Issuer, the Manager, the Backup Manager, the Payment Agent, the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative, the Noteholders or any other Person. In no event shall any party or any of its directors, officers, employees, partners or agents be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages from any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith even if advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action. No provision of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents shall require the Control Party to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under the Transaction Documents if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. The Control Party may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements expressed therein, upon any order, written instruction, notice, request, direction, certificate, consent, report, affidavit, statement, or other paper, document or communication, reasonably believed by it in good faith to be genuine, from the Issuer, the Manager, the Backup Manager, the Payment Agent, the Note Registrar, the Indenture Trustee, the Controlling Class Representative or any Noteholder or given by such any such Person and sent, delivered or directed to the Control Party pursuant to the Transaction Documents. The Control Party shall be protected in acting upon any such order, written instruction, notice, request, direction, certificate, consent, report, affidavit, statement, or other paper, document or communication. The Control Party may consult with counsel satisfactory to it and the advice of such counsel or any opinion of counsel shall constitute full and complete authorization and protection of the Control Party with respect to any action taken, omitted to be taken, or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with and in reliance upon the advice of such counsel. No party shall be liable for any default resulting from force majeure, which shall be deemed to include any circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the party affected.

(b) The Issuer shall indemnify the Control Party and its successors, assigns, agents, directors, officers, managers, members, partners, shareholders and employees (collectively, the “Control Party Indemnified Parties”) from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses, including legal fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of their indemnification rights thereunder) of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, “Indemnified Expenses”) which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Control Party Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of the Transaction Documents, other than Indemnified Expenses arising or resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct of an Control Party Indemnified Party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable order) or a material breach by the Control Party of its obligations under the Transaction Documents (including, without limitation, any failure of the representations and warranties made by the Control Party under the Transaction Documents or in connection therewith to be true and correct in all material respects). The indemnities contained in this Section 5 shall survive the resignation or termination of any Control Party Indemnified Party and the termination of this Agreement. All amounts payable by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 5 shall be paid as Securitization Operating Expenses solely in accordance with the Indenture (including Section 5.10 thereof).

SECTION 6. Independence of the Control Party; No Fiduciary Obligations.

For all purposes of this Agreement, the Control Party shall be an independent contractor and shall not be subject to the supervision of the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative, any Noteholder or any other Person with respect to the manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations hereunder or under the Transaction Documents. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative or the Noteholders under the Transaction Documents, the Control Party shall have no authority to act for or represent the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative or the Noteholders in any way and shall not otherwise be deemed an agent of the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative, any Noteholder or any other Person. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Control Party shall in no event be deemed a fiduciary to the Issuer, the Controlling Class Representative or any Noteholder.

SECTION 7. No Joint Venture.

Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) shall constitute the Control Party and the Issuer as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed to confer on any of them any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.

SECTION 8. Other Activities of Control Party.

Nothing herein shall prevent the Control Party or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its sole discretion, from acting in a similar capacity as a Control Party for any other Person even though such Person may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer.

SECTION 9. Term of Agreement; Resignation and Removal of Control Party.

(a) This Agreement shall continue in force until the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Notes in accordance with its terms, upon which event this Agreement shall automatically terminate.

(b) Subject to Section 9(e) hereof, the Control Party may resign its duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which the Control Party is a party by providing at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Issuer, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager and the Indenture Trustee.

(i) the Control Party defaults in the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and, after notice of such default, does not cure such default within thirty (30) days (or, if such default cannot be cured in such time, does not give, within ten (10) days, such assurance of cure as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer);

(ii) a court having jurisdiction in the premises enters a decree or order for relief, and such decree or order shall not have been vacated within sixty (60) days, in respect of the Control Party in any involuntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appoints a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator or similar official for the Control Party or any substantial part of its property or orders the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs; or

(iii) the Control Party commences a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, consents to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, consents to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or similar official for the Control Party or any substantial part of its property, consents to the taking of possession by any such official of any substantial part of its property, makes any general assignment for the benefit of creditors or fails generally to pay its debts as they become due.

The Control Party agrees that if any of the events specified in clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 9(d) shall occur, it shall give written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Manager, the Back-Up Manager and the Indenture Trustee within seven (7) days after the happening of such event.

(e) No resignation or removal of the Control Party pursuant to this Section 9 shall be effective until a successor Control Party shall have been appointed by the Issuer, and such successor Control Party shall have agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in the same manner as the Control Party is bound hereunder. Any successor Control Party appointed hereunder shall be the successor of the Control Party hereunder without further action by any Person; provided, that the parties and such successor Control Party shall execute such additional instruments or documents evidencing such succession as the Issuer may reasonably request.

The Control Party agrees to use reasonable controls (but in all events at least the same degree of care and controls that the Control Party uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information of similar importance) to maintain the Confidential Information in confidence and only use the Confidential Information for purposes of its duties under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and will not, at any time, disseminate or disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity other than those of its affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, consultants or representatives who have a “need to know” such information in connection with this Agreement (collectively, the “Representatives”), and its applicable regulatory authorities and auditors. The Control Party shall inform its Representatives of these restrictions, shall be liable for any action, or use or disclosure of Confidential Information by its Representatives which would have constituted a breach of this Section 20 had such Representative been a party hereto and shall immediately notify the Manager in the event of any loss or disclosure of any Confidential Information. Confidential Information shall not include information that: (i) is already known to the Control Party without restriction on use or disclosure prior to receipt of such information from any Non-Securitization Entity, a Securitization Entity or other party to a Transaction Document; (ii) is or becomes part of the public domain other than by breach of this Agreement or the Base Indenture by, or other wrongful act of, the Control Party or any of its Representatives; (iii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement or the Base Indenture or is otherwise authorized to be disclosed by the Holders; (iv) is developed by the Control Party independently of and without reference to any Confidential Information; (v) is received by the Control Party from a third party who is not under any obligation to any Non-Securitization Entity, any Securitization Entity or any other party to a Transaction Document to maintain the confidentiality of such information or (vi) is required to be disclosed (A) pursuant to any applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, or in working with any taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, (B) to any government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any respects of the Control Party’s business or that of its affiliates, (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or arbitration to which the Control Party or an affiliate or an officer, director, employer or shareholder thereof is a party, or (D) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the Control Party having a need to know the same, provided that the Control Party advises such recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the duties under this Section 20 shall survive termination of this Agreement and (A) for trade secret information, shall continue for as long as such information remains a trade secret under applicable law, and (B) for all other Confidential Information, shall continue for three (3) years after the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 20, the disclosure of Confidential Information in accordance with the terms of any Transaction Document shall not be a violation of this Section 20.

(c) All books, records, documents, papers or other materials relating to any Non-Securitization Entity’s, any Securitization Entity’s or the Manager’s business, Intellectual Property, customers, suppliers, distributors, franchisees, products or projects received by the Control Party containing Confidential Information or other proprietary information or trade secrets of any Non-Securitization Entity, any Securitization Entity or the Manager, including any copies thereof, shall at all times be and remain the property of the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager, as the case may be, and shall be destroyed or returned immediately to the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager, as the case may be, upon termination of this Agreement, or earlier at the request of the applicable Non-Securitization Entity, Securitization Entity or the Manager; provided, however, that the Control Party may retain such limited media and materials containing Confidential Information for customary archival and audit purposes (including with respect to regulatory compliance) only for reference with respect to the prior dealings between the parties and subject to the confidentiality terms of this Agreement. Upon request, the Control Party shall provide an officer’s certificate attesting to the return and/or destruction of all materials containing any Non-Securitization Entity’s, any Securitization Entity’s or the Manager’s Confidential Information.

Nothing in this Section 20 shall be construed as preventing any Non-Securitization Entity or any Securitization Entity, all of which shall be third-party beneficiaries of the rights arising under this Section 20, as applicable, from pursuing any and all remedies available to it for the breach or threatened breach of covenants made in this Section 20, including recovery of money damages for temporary or permanent injunctive relief.
