SALE AND PURCHASE OF THE ELIGIBLE LOAN ASSETS

AND OTHER PORTFOLIO ASSETS

Section 2.1. Sale and Purchase of the Eligible Loan Assets and the Other Portfolio Assets.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the conditions to Purchase set forth in Article III), on and after the Closing Date, the Seller hereby agrees to (i) sell, transfer and otherwise convey (collectively, “Sell” and any such sale, transfer and/or other conveyance, a “Sale”), from time to time, to the Purchaser, without recourse (except to the extent specifically provided herein), and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase, all right, title and interest of the Seller (whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located) in and to certain Sale Portfolio designated by the Seller and (ii) transfer, or cause the deposit into, the Collection Account of all Available Collections received by the Seller on account of any Sale Portfolio hereunder on and after the Purchase Date with respect to such Sale Portfolio, in each case, within two Business Days of the receipt thereof. The Seller hereby acknowledges that each Sale to the Purchaser hereunder is absolute and irrevocable, without reservation or retention of any interest whatsoever by the Seller.

(b) The Seller shall on each Purchase Date execute and deliver to the Purchaser a proposed Loan Assignment identifying the Sale Portfolio to be Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on such Purchase Date. From and after such Purchase Date, the Sale Portfolio listed on Schedule I to the related Loan Assignment shall be deemed to be listed on Schedule I hereto and constitute part of the Sale Portfolio hereunder.

(d) On and after each Purchase Date hereunder and upon payment of the Purchase Price therefor, the Purchaser shall own the Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on such Purchase Date, and the Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership and shall not claim (except for tax and accounting purposes) any ownership interest in such Sale Portfolio.

(e) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Sale and Purchase of the Sale Portfolio under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Seller; it being understood that the Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by the Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to the Seller for the credit risk of the Obligors.

(f) Neither the Purchaser nor any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties) shall have any obligation or liability to any Obligor or client of the Seller (including any obligation to perform any obligation of the Seller, including with respect to any other related agreements) in respect of the Sale Portfolio (other than with respect to funding obligations to Obligors pursuant to the terms of the applicable Loan Agreement for Revolving Loan Assets and Delayed Draw Loan Assets, as applicable, which shall solely be an obligation of the Purchaser and not any of the Secured Parties). No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the Purchaser or any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties) and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Sale of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or assumption by the Purchaser or any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties), of any obligation of the Seller, as lead agent, collateral agent or paying agent under any Agented Loan.

(g) In connection with each Purchase of Sale Portfolio hereunder, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), no later than 2:00 p.m. on the related Purchase Date, a faxed or e-mailed copy of the duly executed original promissory notes of the Loan Assets (and, in the case of any Noteless Loan Asset, a fully executed assignment agreement) and if any Loan Assets are closed in escrow, a certificate (in the form of Exhibit K to the Loan and Servicing Agreement) from the closing attorneys of such Loan Assets certifying the possession of the Required Loan Documents; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall cause (x) the Loan Asset Checklist and the Required Loan Documents (other than the Xxxxx Agented Required Loan Documents) to be in the possession of the Collateral Custodian within five Business Days after the related Purchase Date and (y) the Xxxxx Agented Required Loan Documents to be in the possession of the Collateral Custodian within thirty days after the related Purchase Date as to any Loan Assets.

(h) In accordance with the Loan and Servicing Agreement, certain documents relating to Sale Portfolio shall be delivered to and held in trust by the Collateral Custodian for the benefit of the Purchaser and its assignees, and the Purchaser hereby instructs the Seller to cause such documents to be delivered to the Collateral Custodian. Such delivery to the Collateral Custodian of such documents and the possession thereof by the Collateral Custodian is at the will of the Purchaser and its assignees and in a custodial capacity for their benefit only.

(i) The Seller shall provide all information, and any other reasonable assistance, to the Servicer, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent necessary for the Servicer, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to conduct the management, administration and collection of the Sale Portfolio Purchased hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Loan and Servicing Agreement.

(j) In connection with the Purchase by the Purchaser of Sale Portfolio as contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller further agrees that it shall, at its own expense, indicate clearly and unambiguously in its computer files on or prior to each Purchase Date, and its financial statements, that such Sale Portfolio has been purchased by the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement.

(k) The Seller further agrees to deliver to the Purchaser on or before each Purchase Date a computer file containing a true, complete and correct list of all Loan Assets to be Sold hereunder on such Purchase Date, identified by the related Obligor’s name and Outstanding Balance as of the related Cut-Off Date. Such file or list shall be marked as Schedule I to the applicable Loan Assignment and shall be delivered to the Purchaser as confidential and proprietary, and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of Schedule I to this Agreement, as such Schedule I may be supplemented and amended from time to time.

(l) The Seller shall, at all times, continue to fulfill its obligations under, and in strict conformance with, the terms of all Loan Agreements (other than with respect to funding obligations to Obligors in connection with Revolving Loan Assets and Delayed Draw Loan Assets, as applicable) related to any Sale Portfolio purchased hereunder, including without limitation any obligations pertaining to any Retained Interest.

(m) The Seller and the Purchaser each acknowledge with respect to itself that the representations and warranties of the Seller in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof and of the Purchaser in Section 4.3 hereof, and the covenants and agreements of the Seller herein, including without limitation, in Article V and Article VI hereof, will run to and be for the benefit of the Purchaser and the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may enforce directly (without joinder of the Purchaser when enforcing against the Seller) the obligations of the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, with respect to breaches of such representations, warranties, covenants and all other obligations as set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2.2. Purchase Price.

The purchase price for each item of Sale Portfolio Sold to the Purchaser hereunder (the “Purchase Price”) shall be in a dollar amount equal to the fair market value of such Loan Asset as determined from time to time by the Seller and the Purchaser. Each of the Purchaser and the Seller hereby agree that the fair market value of each Loan Asset Sold hereunder as of the related Purchase Date shall not be less than the Advance Date Assigned Value thereof multiplied by the Outstanding Balance of such Loan Asset on the related Purchase Date.

Section 2.3. Payment of Purchase Price.

(a) The Purchase Price for any Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on any Purchase Date shall be paid in a combination of: (i) immediately available funds; and (ii) if the Purchaser does not have sufficient funds to pay the full amount of the Purchase Price (after taking into account the proceeds the Purchaser expects to receive pursuant to the Advances under the Loan and Servicing Agreement), by means of a capital contribution by the Seller to the Purchaser.

(b) The portion of such Purchase Price to be paid in immediately available funds shall be paid by wire transfer on the applicable Purchase Date to an account designated by the Seller on or before such Purchase Date or by means of proper accounting entries being entered upon the accounts and records of the Seller and the Purchaser on the applicable Purchase Date.

(c) In connection with each delivery of a Loan Assignment, the Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have certified, with respect to the Sale Portfolio to be Sold by it on such day, that its representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 are true and correct in all respects on and as of such day, with the same effect as though made on and as of such day (other than any representation or warranty that is made as of a specific date), that no Event of Default has occurred or would result therefrom and no Unmatured Event of Default exists or would result therefrom.

(d) Upon the payment of the Purchase Price for any Purchase, title to the Sale Portfolio included in such Purchase shall vest in the Purchaser, whether or not the conditions precedent to such Purchase and the other covenants and agreements contained herein were in fact satisfied; provided that the Purchaser shall not be deemed to have waived any claim it may have under this Agreement for the failure by the Seller in fact to satisfy any such condition precedent, covenant or agreement.

Section 2.4. Nature of the Sales.

(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Sale of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser hereunder be, and be treated for all purposes (other than tax and accounting purposes) as an absolute sale by the Seller (free and clear of any Lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance other than Permitted Liens) of such Sale Portfolio. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such Sale be deemed a pledge of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Sale Portfolio is held to continue to be property of the Seller, then the parties hereto agree that: (i) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC; (ii) the transfer of the Sale Portfolio provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Sale Portfolio and all amounts payable to the holders of the Sale Portfolio in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including, without limitation, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Controlled Accounts, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Sale Portfolio together with all of the other obligations of the Seller hereunder; (iii) the possession by the Purchaser (or the Collateral Custodian on behalf of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties) of Sale Portfolio and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to clause (iv), for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law. The parties further agree in such event that any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Sale Portfolio, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Purchaser shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other Applicable Law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

(b) It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute assets owned by the Purchaser and shall not be part of the Seller’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy or similar law.

(c) The Purchaser agrees to treat, and shall cause the Seller to treat, for all purposes (other than tax and accounting purposes), the transactions effected by this Agreement as sales of assets to the Purchaser. The Seller agrees to reflect in the Seller’s financial records and to include a note in the publicly filed annual and quarterly financial statements of the Seller indicating that: (i) assets related to transactions (including transactions pursuant to the Transaction Documents) that do not meet ASC Topic 860 requirements for accounting sale treatment are reflected in the consolidated balance sheet of the Seller as investments and (ii) those assets are owned by a special purpose entity that is consolidated in the financial statements of the Seller, and the creditors of the special purpose entity have received security interests in such assets and such assets are not intended to be available to the creditors of the Seller (or any affiliate of the Seller).

(iv) the failure by the Seller to pay when due any Taxes due by the Seller for which the Seller is liable, including without limitation, sales, excise or personal property Taxes payable in connection with the Sale Portfolio;

(v) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Seller in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of the Seller’s obligations and duties under this Agreement;

(vi) any failure of the Seller to perform its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party or any failure by the Seller or any Affiliate thereof to perform its respective duties under any Sale Portfolio;

(vii) the failure of any Sale Portfolio to comply with all requirements of Applicable Law as of its Purchase Date;

(viii) the failure by the Seller to comply with all requirements of Section 6.1 hereof;

(ix) the failure by the Seller to comply with any term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement or any agreement executed in connection with this Agreement, any Transaction Document or with any Applicable Law;

(x) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Seller, or any of its officers, under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, which shall have been false, incorrect or misleading in any respect when made or deemed made or delivered;

(xi) the failure to vest and maintain vested in the Purchaser an undivided ownership interest in the Sale Portfolio, together with all Interest Collections and Principal Collections, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) whether existing at the time of any Purchase or at any time thereafter;

(xii) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements, continuation statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other Applicable Law with respect to any Sale Portfolio, whether at the time of any Purchase or at any subsequent time;

(xiii) any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than the discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment with respect to any Sale Portfolio (including, without limitation, a defense based on the Sale Portfolio not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms);

(xiv) any inability to obtain any judgment in, or utilize the court or other adjudication system of, any state in which an Obligor may be located as a result of the failure of the Seller to qualify to do business or file any notice or business activity report or any similar report;

(xv) any action taken by the Seller in the enforcement or collection of any Sale Portfolio which results in any claim, suit or action of any kind pertaining to the Sale Portfolio or which reduces or impairs the rights of the Purchaser with respect to any Loan Asset or the value of any such Loan Asset;

(c) If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 9.1 is unavailable to the Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Seller shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Seller as the case may be, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(d) Indemnification under this Section 9.1 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder, including the effect of such Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party.

(e) The obligations of the Seller under this Section 9.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.2. Assignment of Indemnities.

The Seller acknowledges that, pursuant to the Loan and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser shall assign its rights of indemnity hereunder to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties. Upon such assignment, (a) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have all rights of the Purchaser hereunder and may in turn assign such rights, and (b) the obligations of the Seller under this Article IX shall inure to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Seller agrees that, upon such assignment, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may enforce directly, without joinder of the Purchaser, the indemnities set forth in this Article IX.

(B) Defined Terms. All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

“Cut–Off Date” shall mean, with respect to the Loan Assets designated hereby, _____________, _____.

(C) Designation of Loan Assets. Seller delivers herewith a computer file or microfiche list containing a true and complete list of the Loan Assets Sold and assigned hereunder, identified by account number, the related Obligor and Outstanding Balance as of the Cut–Off Date. Such computer file, microfiche list or other documentation shall be as of the date of this Loan Assignment incorporated into and made part of this Loan Assignment and is marked as Schedule I hereto.

(D) The Seller does hereby Sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby Purchases from the Seller, all right, title and interest of the Seller (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) in the property identified in clauses (i) - (iii) below and all accounts, cash and currency, chattel paper, tangible chattel paper, electronic chattel paper, copyrights, copyright licenses, equipment, fixtures, contract rights, general intangibles, instruments, certificates of deposit, certificated securities, uncertificated securities, financial assets, securities entitlements, commercial tort claims, deposit accounts, inventory, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, software, supporting obligations, accessions, and other property consisting of, arising out of, or related to any of the following, property, whether now owned or existing or hereafter created, arising or acquired and wherever located (in each case excluding the Retained Interest and the Excluded Amounts) (the “Sale Portfolio”):

(i) the Loan Assets that are identified by the Seller as of the Cut–Off Date, which are listed on Schedule I, together with all monies due or to become due in payment under such Loan Assets on and after the related Cut–Off Date, including, but not limited to, all Available Collections;

(ii) the Portfolio Assets with respect to the Loan Assets referred to in clause (i); and

(iii) all income and Proceeds of the foregoing.

(E) This Loan Assignment is made without recourse but on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Documents to which the Seller is a party. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser is accepting this Loan Assignment in reliance on the representations, warranties and covenants of the Seller contained in the Transaction Documents to which the Seller is a party. The undersigned Responsible Officer of the Seller hereby certifies to the Purchaser, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Lender Agent and the other Secured Parties that all of the representations and warranties in Section 4.2 of the Agreement are true, accurate and complete as of the Cut-Off Date referenced above.

A-1

(F) Ratification of the Agreement. The Agreement is hereby ratified, and all references to the “Purchase and Sale Agreement,” to “this Agreement” and “herein” shall be deemed to be a reference to the Agreement as supplemented by this Loan Assignment. Except as expressly amended hereby, all the representations, warranties, terms covenants and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unamended and shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and except as expressly provided herein shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with or consent to non–compliance with any term or provision of the Agreement.

(G) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Sale of the Loan Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser hereunder be, and be treated for all purposes (other than tax and accounting purposes) as, an absolute sale by the Seller (free and clear of any Lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance other than Permitted Liens) of such Loan Assets. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such Sale be deemed a pledge of such Loan Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such Loan Assets are held to continue to be property of the Seller, then the parties hereto agree that: (i) the Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC; (ii) the transfer of the Loan Assets provided for hereunder shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to such Loan Assets and all amounts payable to the holders of such Loan Assets in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including, without limitation, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Controlled Accounts, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Loan Assets together with all of the other obligations of the Seller hereunder; (iii) the possession by the Purchaser (or the Collateral Custodian on behalf of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties) of such Loan Assets and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to clause (iv), for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law. The parties further agree in such event that any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. The Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if the Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in such Loan Assets, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The Purchaser shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under the Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other Applicable Law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

A-2

(H) THIS LOAN ASSIGNMENT NO. ____ SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS.
