 Section 7.3 Taxes and Claims. Borrower shall pay or discharge at or before maturity or before becoming
delinquent (a) all taxes, levies, assessments, and governmental charges imposed on it or its income or profits or any of its Property, and (b) all lawful claims for labor, material, and supplies, which, if unpaid, might become a Lien upon
any of its Property; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay or discharge any tax, levy, assessment, or governmental charge which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued
(where applicable), and for which adequate reserves reasonably required by the Lender have been established. 
 Section 7.4
Maintenance of Insurance and Property. LM Funding, LLC shall: 
 (a) Keep, and cause Borrower and each Subsidiary to keep, all
property useful and necessary in the business of LM Funding, LLC, Borrower or such Subsidiary in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 

(b) Maintain, and cause Borrower and each Subsidiary to maintain, with responsible insurance companies, such insurance coverage as shall
be required by all material laws, governmental regulations and court decrees and orders applicable to it and such other insurance, to such extent and against such hazards and liabilities, as is customarily maintained by companies similarly situated;
provided, that in any event, such insurance 

  
 Page 19 








 
shall insure against all risks and liabilities of the type insured against as of the Closing Date and shall have insured amounts no less than, and deductibles no higher than, those amounts
provided for as of the Closing Date. Upon request of Lender, LM Funding, LLC and Borrower shall furnish to Lender a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and extent of all insurance maintained by LM Funding, LLC, Borrower
and each Subsidiary. LM Funding, LLC shall cause each issuer of an insurance policy to provide Lender with endorsements (i) showing Lender as lender loss payee or as additional insured, as applicable, with respect to each policy of
property, casualty and liability insurance, (ii) providing that 30 days’ advance notice will be given to Lender prior to any cancellation or non-renewal of such policy (or 10 days’ advance notice prior to any such cancellation due to
non-payment of premium), and (iii) reasonably acceptable in all other respects to Lender. LM Funding, LLC, Borrower or any Subsidiary may reduce the insurance coverage required by this Section upon the written consent of Lender. 

(c) If LM Funding, LLC or Borrower fails to timely provide Lender with evidence of the continuing insurance coverage required by this
Agreement, Lender may purchase insurance at LM Funding, LLC’s or Borrower’s expense to protect Lender’s interests in the Collateral. This insurance may, but need not, protect LM Funding, LLC’s, Borrower’s and each
Subsidiary’s interests. The coverage that Lender purchases may, but need not, pay any claim that is made against LM Funding, LLC, Borrower or any Subsidiary in connection with the Collateral. LM Funding, LLC or Borrower may later
cancel any insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with evidence that LM Funding, LLC or Borrower has obtained the insurance coverage required by this Agreement. If Lender purchases insurance for the Collateral, as set
forth above, LM Funding, LLLC and Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges that may be imposed with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or
expiration of the insurance and the costs of the insurance may be added to the principal amount of the Loans owing hereunder. 

Section 7.5 Inspection Rights. At any reasonable time and from time to time, Borrower and each Guarantor shall permit Lender
(a) to examine, copy, and make extracts from its books and records, (b) to inspect its Properties, and (c) to discuss its business, operations, and financial condition with its officers, employees, and independent certified public
accountants, in each instance, at the Borrower’s or Guarantor’s expense, as applicable.

activities.

applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, and decrees of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator.

PROVIDED THAT THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT INCLUDE ANY LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, JUDGMENTS, DISBURSEMENTS, COSTS, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES) ARISING FROM ANY
INDEMNIFIED PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR OF ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, IT IS THE EXPRESS INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT EACH PERSON TO BE INDEMNIFIED UNDER THIS SECTION
SHALL BE INDEMNIFIED FROM AND HELD HARMLESS AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, JUDGMENTS, DISBURSEMENTS, COSTS, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES) ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM THE SOLE CONTRIBUTORY OR

 Section 11.5 Lender Not Fiduciary. The
relationship between Borrower and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no term or condition of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the

 Section 11.6 Equitable Relief.
Borrower and each Guarantor recognizes that in the event Borrower or any Guarantor fails to pay, perform, observe, or discharge any or all of the Obligations, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to Lender. Borrower and each Guarantor

LAW, BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED UPON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN

and Lender at all times to comply strictly with the applicable law governing the maximum rate or amount of interest payable on the indebtedness evidenced by any Note, any Loan Document, and the Related Indebtedness (or applicable United States
federal law to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under applicable law). If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount
(a) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received pursuant to any Note, any of the other Loan Documents or any other communication or writing by or between Borrower and Lender related to the transaction or transactions that are the
subject matter of the Loan Documents, (b) contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received by reason of Lender’s exercise of the option to accelerate the maturity of any Note and/or any and all indebtedness paid or payable by Borrower

received by reason of any voluntary prepayment by Borrower of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness, then it is Borrower’s and Lender’s express intent that all amounts charged in excess of the Maximum Rate shall be automatically
canceled, ab initio, and all amounts in excess of the Maximum Rate theretofore collected by Lender shall be credited on the principal balance of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness (or, if any Note and all Related Indebtedness have been
or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to Borrower), and the provisions of any Note and the other Loan Documents shall immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity
of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder; provided, however, if any Note or Related Indebtedness has
been paid in full before the end of the stated term thereof, then Borrower and Lender agree that Lender shall, with reasonable promptness after Lender discovers or is advised by Borrower that interest was received in an amount in excess of the
Maximum Rate, either refund such excess interest to Borrower and/or credit such excess interest against such Note and/or any Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. Borrower hereby agrees that as a condition precedent to any claim
seeking usury penalties against Lender, Borrower will provide written notice to Lender, advising Lender 

  
 Page 30 








 
in reasonable detail of the nature and amount of the violation, and Lender shall have sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice in which to correct such usury violation, if any, by either
refunding such excess interest to Borrower or crediting such excess interest against the Note to which the alleged violation relates and/or the Related Indebtedness then owing by Borrower to Lender. All sums contracted for, charged, taken, reserved
or received by Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of any debt evidenced by any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized or spread, using the actuarial method, throughout the stated
term of such Note and/or the Related Indebtedness (including any and all renewal and extension periods) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Note and/or the Related Indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum
Rate from time to time in effect and applicable to such Note and/or the Related Indebtedness for so long as debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention
of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration. 

Section 11.21 Ceiling Election. To the extent United States federal law permits Lender to contract for, charge, take, receive or
reserve a greater amount of interest than under Florida law, Lender will rely on United States federal law for the purpose of determining the Maximum Rate. Additionally, to the extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, Lender
may, at its option and from time to time, utilize any other method of establishing the Maximum Rate under applicable law by giving notice, if required, to Borrower as provided by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. 

Section 11.22 USA Patriot Act Notice. Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and each other Obligated Party, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and each other Obligated Party and other information that will allow Lender to
identify Borrower and each other Obligated Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. In addition, Borrower agrees to (a) ensure that no Person who owns a controlling interest in or otherwise controls Borrower or any Subsidiary of Borrower is or
shall be listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Person List or other similar lists maintained by the OFAC, the Department of the Treasury or included in any Executive Order, (b) not to use or permit the use of proceeds of the
Obligations to violate any of the foreign asset control regulations of the OFAC or any enabling statute or Executive Order relating thereto, and (c) comply, or cause its Subsidiaries to comply, with the applicable laws. 

Section 11.23 Arbitration. 

(a) Arbitration. Upon demand of any party, any dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration (except as set forth in
(e) below) in accordance with the terms of this agreement. A “dispute” shall mean any action, dispute, claim or controversy of any kind, whether in contract or tort, statutory or common law, legal or equitable, now existing of
hereafter arising under or in connection with, or in any way pertaining to, any of the Loan Documents, or any past present, or future extensions of credit and other activities, transactions or obligations of any kind related directly or indirectly
to any of the Loan Documents, including, 

  
 Page 31 








 
without limitation, any of the foregoing arising in connection with the exercise of any self-help, ancillary or other remedies pursuant to any of the Loan Documents. Any party may by summary
proceedings bring an action in court to compel arbitration of a dispute. Any party who fails or refuses to submit to arbitration following a lawful demand by any other party shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by such other party in
compelling arbitration of any dispute. 
 (b) Governing Rules. Arbitration proceedings shall be administered by the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or such other administrator as the parties shall mutually agree upon in accordance with the AAA commercial arbitration rules. All disputes submitted to arbitration shall be resolved in
accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code), notwithstanding any conflicting choice of law provision in any of the loan documents. The arbitration shall be conducted at a location in Little Rock, Arkansas,
selected by the AAA or other administrator. If there is any inconsistency between the terms hereof and any such rules, the terms and procedures set forth herein shall control. All statutes of limitation applicable to any dispute shall apply to any
arbitration proceeding. All discovery activities shall be expressly limited to matters directly relevant to the dispute being arbitrated. Judgment upon any award rendered in arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction; provided
however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver by any party that is a lender of the protections afforded to it under 12 U.S.C. 91 or any similar applicable state law. 

(c) No Waiver; Provisional Remedies, Self-Help And Foreclosure. No provision hereof shall limit the right of any party to
foreclose against real or personal property collateral; exercise self-help remedies relating to collateral or proceeds of collateral such as setoff or repossession; or to obtain provisional or ancillary remedies, including without limitation
injunctive relief, sequestration, attachment, garnishment or other appointment of a receiver, from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of any such remedy shall
not waive the right of any party to compel arbitration hereunder. 
 (d) Arbitrator Qualifications And Powers; Awards.
Arbitrators must be active members of the Florida state bar with expertise in the substantive laws applicable to the subject matter of the dispute. Arbitrators are empowered to resolve disputes by summary rulings in response to motions filed prior
to the final arbitration hearing. Arbitrators (i) shall resolve all disputes in accordance with the substantive law of the state of Florida, (ii) may grant any remedy or relief that a court of the state of Florida could order or grant
within the scope hereof and such ancillary relief as is necessary to make effective any award, and (iii) shall have the power to award recovery of all costs and fees, to impose sanctions and to take such other actions as they deem necessary to
the same extent a judge could pursuant to the federal rules of civil procedure, the Florida rules of civil procedure or other applicable law. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy is $5,000,000 or less shall be decided by a single
arbitrator who shall not render an 

  
 Page 32 








 
award of greater than $5,000,000 (including damages, costs, fees and expenses). By submission to a single arbitrator, each party expressly waives any right or claim to recover more than
$5,000,000. Any dispute in which the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000 shall be decided by majority vote of a panel of three arbitrators; provided however, that all three arbitrators must actively participate in all hearings and
deliberations. 
 (e) Judicial Review. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in any arbitration in which the amount
in controversy exceeds $1,000,000, the arbitrators shall be required to make specific, written findings of fact and conclusions of law. In such arbitrations (i) the arbitrators shall not have the power to make any award which is not supported
by substantial evidence or which is based on legal error, (ii) an award shall not be binding upon the parties unless the findings of fact are supported by substantial evidence and the conclusions of law are not erroneous under the substantive
law of the state of Florida, and (iii) the parties shall have in addition to the grounds referred to in the federal arbitration act for vacating, modifying or correcting an award the right to judicial review of (a) whether the findings of
fact rendered by the arbitrators are supported by substantial evidence, and (b) whether the conclusions of law are erroneous under the substantive law of the state of Florida. Judgment confirming an award in such a proceeding may be entered
only if a court determines the award is supported by substantial evidence and not based on legal error under the substantive law of the state of Florida. 

(f) Miscellaneous. To the maximum extent practicable, the AAA, the arbitrators and the parties shall take all action required to
conclude any arbitration proceeding within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. No arbitrator or other party to an arbitration proceeding may disclose the existence, content or results thereof, except for disclosures of information by
a party required in the ordinary course of its business, by applicable law or regulation, or to the extent necessary to exercise any judicial review rights set forth herein. If more than one agreement for arbitration by or between the parties
potentially applies to a dispute, the arbitration provision most directly related to the loan documents or the subject matter of the dispute shall control. This arbitration provision shall survive termination, amendment or expiration of any of the
loan documents or any relationship between the parties. 
 Section 11.24 Confidentiality. 

In handling any confidential information, Lender shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information,
but disclosure of information may be made: (a) to Lender’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (such Subsidiaries and Affiliates, together with Lender, each a “Lender Entity” and collectively, the “Lender
Entities”); (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loan, provided, however, Lender shall use its best efforts to obtain any prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of
this Section 11.23; (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to Lender’s regulators or as otherwise required in connection with Lender’s examination or audit; (e) as Lender
considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service 

  
 Page 33 








 
providers of Lender so long as such service providers have executed a confidentiality agreement with Lender with terms no less restrictive than those contained herein. Confidential information
does not include information that is: (i) either in the public domain other than as a result of Lender’s breach of this section or is in Lender’s possession when disclosed to Lender; or (ii) disclosed to Lender by a third party
on a nonconfidential basis if Lender does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information. 

Section 11.25 Termination. 

This Agreement shall continue in effect until all of the Obligations (except Obligations consisting of contingent indemnity obligations for
which no claim is asserted) have been paid in cash in full and no commitments which would give rise to any Obligations are outstanding; provided, however, any indemnification obligations of Borrower (including without limitation
Section 11.2) shall survive any such termination. 
 Section 11.26 NOTICE OF FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT
AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE
PARTIES.
