provided that the Securities Intermediary shall hold such Loan Assets as required by Section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Securities Intermediary is not under a duty to examine underlying credit
agreements or loan documents to determine the validity or sufficiency of any Loan Assignment Agreement (and shall have no responsibility for the genuineness or completeness thereof), or for the Debtor’s title to any related Loan Asset. 

(b) The Securities Intermediary will, by book-entry notation, promptly credit to the applicable Secured Account all property to be credited

meaning of Section 9-304(b) of the UCC) shall be the State of New York.

(f) No Other Agreements. The Securities Intermediary hereby confirms and agrees that: 

(i) other than the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and certain ancillary account form documents required by the Custodian (the

Order”) originated by the Secured Party and relating to any Secured Account or any financial assets or security entitlements credited thereto, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such Transfer Order without further consent by the
Debtor or any other Person. 
 (ii) At any time prior to the delivery to and receipt by the Securities Intermediary of a

(iii) Upon receipt by the Securities Intermediary, in accordance with the notice requirements hereunder, of a Notice of

duties hereunder directly or by or through agents, attorneys or employees; provided that the Securities Intermediary shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any
non-Affiliated agent or non-Affiliated attorney appointed by it with due care. The Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to consult with counsel selected with due
care and to act in reliance upon the written opinion of such counsel concerning matters pertaining to its duties hereunder, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance
with the advice or opinion of such counsel. Except as expressly provided herein, the Securities Intermediary shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement at the request or direction of the
Debtor, the Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Person. 
 (a) No Change to Secured Accounts. Without the prior
written consent of the Debtor and, so long as any Obligations remain unpaid or Commitment remains in effect, the Secured Party and the Administrative Agent, the Securities Intermediary will not change the account number or designation of any Secured
Account; provided, however, that the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to establish sub-accounts of the Secured Accounts without the prior consent of the Secured Party. 

(b) Certain Information. The Securities Intermediary shall promptly notify the Debtor, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Party if
an Authorized Officer of the Securities Intermediary with direct responsibility for administration of this Agreement has actual knowledge of or receives written notice that any Person asserts or seeks to assert a lien, encumbrance or adverse claim
against any portion or all of the property credited to any Secured Account. The Securities Intermediary will send copies of all statements, confirmations and other correspondence relating to each Secured Account (and/or any financial assets credited
thereto) simultaneously to the Debtor, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Party. The Securities Intermediary will furnish to the Secured Party, the Administrative Agent and the Debtor, upon written request, an account statement with respect to
each Secured Account. 
 (c) Subordination. In the event that the Securities Intermediary has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by
operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any of the Secured Accounts, or any financial asset credited thereto, the Securities Intermediary hereby subordinates any such security interest therein to the security interest of the Secured
Party in the Secured Accounts, in all property credited thereto and in all security entitlements with respect to such property. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Securities Intermediary hereby subordinates to such security interest of the
Secured Party any and all statutory, regulatory, contractual or other rights now or hereafter existing in favor of the Securities Intermediary over or with respect to any Secured Account, all property credited thereto and all security entitlements

pledge, lien, set-off or compensation, (iii) any and all statutory, regulatory, contractual or other rights to put on hold, block transfers from or fail to honor instructions of the Debtor with respect to
any Secured Account or (iv) any and all statutory or other rights to prohibit or otherwise limit the pledge, assignment, collateral assignment or granting of any type of security interest in any Secured Account), except the Securities
Intermediary may set off (i) the face amount of any checks that have been credited to any Secured Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds and (ii) reversals or cancellations of payment
orders and other electronic fund transfers. 
 (d) Limitation on Liability. The Securities Intermediary shall not have any duties or
obligations except those expressly set forth herein and shall satisfy those duties expressly set forth herein so long as it acts without gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Securities Intermediary shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, and the Securities Intermediary shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers. None of the Securities
Intermediary, any officer, agent, stockholder, partner, member, director or employee of the Securities Intermediary or any Affiliate of the Securities Intermediary shall have any liability, whether direct or indirect and whether in contract, tort or
otherwise, for (i) any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or in connection herewith unless such act or omission constituted gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith on its part or (ii) any action
taken or omitted to be taken by the Securities Intermediary in accordance with the terms hereof at the express direction of the Secured Party. In addition, the Securities Intermediary shall have no liability for making any investment or reinvestment
of any cash balance in any Secured Account, or holding amounts uninvested in such accounts, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The liabilities of the Securities Intermediary shall be limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement. The
Securities Intermediary shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers hereunder. The Securities Intermediary shall not be deemed to have notice
or knowledge of any Event of Default or Notice of Exclusive Control unless an Authorized Officer of the Securities Intermediary has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice thereof is received by an Authorized Officer of the Securities
Intermediary. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Securities Intermediary shall not be responsible for complying with Section 8-505(a) of the UCC. With the exception
of (x) this Agreement, (y) relevant terms used herein and expressly defined in the Credit Agreement and (z) the provisions of the Credit Agreement expressly referred to herein, the Securities Intermediary is not responsible for or
chargeable with knowledge of any terms or conditions contained in any agreement referred to herein, including, but not limited to, the Credit Agreement. The Securities Intermediary shall in no event be liable for the application or misapplication of
funds by any other person, or for the acts or omissions of any other person (including, without limitation, those of the Debtor). The Securities Intermediary shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
certificate, report or other document.

 (e) Reliance. The Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and
shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, opinion, report, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing including, but not limited to, an electronic mail communication delivered to the Securities
Intermediary under or in connection with this Agreement and in good faith and believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Securities Intermediary may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and
other experts selected by it with due care, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by the Securities Intermediary in good faith and in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

writ or other form of judicial or administrative process which in any way affects any Secured Account (including, but not limited to, orders of attachment or garnishment or other forms of levies or injunctions or stays relating to the transfer of
any Secured Account or any financial asset in any Secured Account), the Securities Intermediary is authorized to take such action as legal counsel of its own choosing advises appropriate to comply therewith; and if the Securities Intermediary
complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, the Securities Intermediary will not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity even
though such order, judgment, decree, writ or process may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

(i) Merger. Any Person into whom the Securities Intermediary may be converted or merged, or with whom it may be
consolidated, or to whom it may sell or transfer its trust or other business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any Person resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which the Securities
Intermediary is a party, shall (provided it is otherwise qualified to serve as the Securities Intermediary hereunder) be and become a successor Securities Intermediary hereunder and be vested with all of the powers, immunities, privileges and
other matters and subject to all of the obligations as was its predecessor without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to gross negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Securities Intermediary. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, all amounts payable by the
Debtor to the Securities Intermediary under this Agreement shall be payable only in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 9.1 and 6.4 of the Credit Agreement.

providing services in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Loan Documents shall have only the rights, duties and responsibilities expressly provided in its various capacities and shall not, by virtue of it or any Affiliate acting in
any other capacity be deemed to have rights, duties or responsibilities other than as expressly provided with respect to each such capacity. U.S. Bank (or its Affiliates), in its various capacities in connection with the transactions contemplated in
the Loan Documents, including as Securities Intermediary, may enter into business transactions, including the acquisition of investment securities as contemplated by the Loan Documents, from which it and/or such Affiliates may derive revenues and
profits in addition to the fees stated in the various Loan Documents, without any duty to account therefor. 
 (j) Force Majeure. In
no event shall the Securities Intermediary be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without
limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and
hardware) services, it being understood that the Securities Intermediary shall use reasonable best efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to maintain performance and, if necessary, resume performance as soon as
practicable under the circumstances

(i) preparing, recording, filing, re-recording or refiling any financing statement, continuation statement, document, instrument or other notice in any public office at any time or times, (ii) the
correctness of any such financing statement, continuation statement, document or instrument or other such notice, (iii) taking any action to perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest granted to the Secured Party or otherwise
or (iv) the validity or perfection of any such lien or security interest. 
 (l) Facsimile and Electronic Transmissions. The
Securities Intermediary agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement sent by unsecured e-mail, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods;
provided that any person providing such instructions or directions shall provide to the Securities Intermediary an incumbency certificate listing such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate shall be amended and replaced
whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Debtor elects to give the Securities Intermediary e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method), the
Securities Intermediary’s understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Securities Intermediary shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Securities Intermediary’s
reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Debtor agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to
submit instructions and directions to the Securities Intermediary in accordance with the foregoing, including without limitation the risk of the Securities Intermediary acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by
third parties.

 ARTICLE V 

INDEMNITY; LIMITATION ON DAMAGES; EXPENSES; FEES 

Section 5. (a) Indemnity. (i) Subject to Section 5(a)(ii), the Debtor hereby indemnifies and holds
harmless the Securities Intermediary, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (collectively referred to for the purposes of this Section 5(a) as the Securities
Intermediary), against any loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim of liability), or any action in respect thereof, to which the Securities Intermediary may become subject, whether
commenced or threatened, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability or action arises out of or is based upon the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, but excluding any such loss, claim, damage, expense,
liability or action arising out of the fraud, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Securities Intermediary, and shall reimburse the Securities Intermediary promptly upon demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Securities Intermediary in connection with investigating or preparing to defend or defending against or
appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability or action as such expenses are incurred (collectively, the “Losses”). No provision of this Agreement shall require the Securities
Intermediary to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that

priority of payments set forth in Sections 9.1 and 6.4 of the Credit Agreement and shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Securities Intermediary.

Secured Account, including the Securities Intermediary’s customary fees and expenses, any reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by the
Securities Intermediary as a result of conflicting claims or notices involving the parties hereto, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its external legal counsel, and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
execution, administration or enforcement of this Agreement including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, whether or not such enforcement includes the filing of a lawsuit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, all amounts
payable by the Debtor to the Securities Intermediary under this Agreement shall be payable only in accordance with, and subject to, Sections 9.1 and 6.4 of the Credit Agreement.

 (c) No Consequential Damages. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
in no event shall the Securities Intermediary be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Securities Intermediary has been advised of such
loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

Intermediary with direct responsibility for administration of this Agreement has actual knowledge of or receives written notice that any Person asserts or seeks to assert a lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment,
judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against any Secured Account or in any financial asset carried therein, the Securities Intermediary will promptly notify the Debtor and the Administrative Agent thereof (and the Debtor
shall promptly notify the Secured Party thereof). 
 ARTICLE VIII 

TRANSFER 
 Section 8.
Neither this Agreement nor any interest or obligation in or under this Agreement may be transferred (whether by way of security or otherwise) by any party without the prior written consent of each other party and the Administrative Agent, except as
specified in Section 10(d). Any purported transfer that is not in compliance with this Section 8 will be void. 

ARTICLE IX 
 TERMINATION

 Section 9. The rights and powers granted herein to the Secured Party have been granted in order to perfect its security interest
in each Secured Account and the financial assets credited thereto, are powers coupled with an interest and will be affected neither by the bankruptcy of the Debtor nor by the lapse of time. The obligations of the Securities Intermediary hereunder
shall continue in effect until the earlier of (a) that date upon which the security interest of the Secured Party in each Secured Account has been terminated pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Secured Party has notified the
Securities Intermediary of such termination in writing and (b) that date on which the Secured Party releases or terminates its security interest in each Secured Account and the Secured Party has notified the Securities Intermediary of such
termination in writing. The Securities Intermediary shall thereafter take such steps as the Debtor may reasonably request to vest ownership and control of the Secured Accounts in the Debtor.

understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all oral communication and prior writings with respect thereto. 

(a) Amendments. No amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing (including a
writing evidenced by a facsimile transmission), executed by each of the parties hereto and the Administrative Agent, and the Debtor shall provide notice to the Rating Agency of any such amendment, modification or waiver. 

(b) Survival. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement or in any certificate or other document delivered pursuant to or

Securities Intermediary under Sections 4 and 5, and the obligations of the Debtor under Section 5, shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

(c) Benefit of Agreement. Subject to Section 8, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Debtor, the Secured Party and the Securities Intermediary and their respective successors and permitted assigns. The Securities Intermediary acknowledges and consents to the collateral assignment of the Secured Accounts and all property

presumed to operate as a waiver, and a single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege.

 (f) Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only
and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement. 
 (g) Severability. If
any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any party or any circumstance, is held to be unenforceable, invalid or illegal (in whole or in part) for any reason (in any jurisdiction), the remaining terms of this Agreement, modified
by the deletion of the unenforceable, invalid or illegal portion (in any relevant jurisdiction), will continue in full force and effect, and such unenforceability, invalidity, or illegality will not otherwise affect the enforceability, validity or
legality of the remaining terms of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the deletion of such portion of this
Agreement will not substantially impair the respective expectations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. 

(h) No Agency. Notwithstanding anything that may be construed to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that the Securities
Intermediary is not, nor shall it be considered to be, an agent, of the Secured Party. In addition, the Securities Intermediary shall not act or represent itself, directly or by implication, as an agent of the Secured Party or in any manner assume
or create any obligation whatsoever on behalf of, or in the name of, the Secured Party. 
 (i) Payments by Debtor. Any amounts
required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement by the Debtor shall be paid or caused to be paid by the Debtor to the applicable Person on the Quarterly Payment Date following such Person’s demand therefor in accordance with Section 9.1 of
the Credit Agreement; provided that such demand is made no later than two Business Days prior to the applicable Quarterly Payment Date, or in the case of the liquidation of the Collateral, in accordance with Section 6.4 of the Credit
Agreement. 
 (j) Limited Recourse Against Debtor. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of the parties
hereto hereby agrees that any obligations of the Debtor under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the Debtor, payable solely from the Collateral in accordance with Sections 9.1(a) and 6.4 of the Credit Agreement, and following
realization of the Collateral, all obligations of the Debtor under this Agreement and any claims of a party hereto against the Debtor shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had against any officer, director,
general partner, manager, member, employee, stockholder or incorporator of the Debtor or its successors or assigns for any amounts payable under this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 10(k) shall survive the
expiration or termination of this Agreement. 
 (k) No Bankruptcy Petition. The parties hereto agree that they shall not institute
against, or join any other Person in instituting against the Debtor, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under U.S. federal or state bankruptcy laws or any similar laws
until at least one year and one day (or any other applicable preference period then in effect) after payment in full of all of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement. This Section 10(l) shall survive the expiration or
termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Securities Intermediary or the Secured Party (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the


  
 -13- 








 
aforementioned one year and one day (or longer) period in (A) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Debtor or (B) any involuntary insolvency proceeding filed or
commenced by a Person other than the Securities Intermediary or the Secured Party or (ii) from commencing against the Debtor or any of its properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency,
moratorium or liquidation proceeding. 
 (l) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees (i) that the State of New York is the
Custodian’s jurisdiction for purposes of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and the law of the State of New York governs all issues specified in Article 2(1) of the Hague Convention on the Law Applicable to Certain Rights in Respect of
Securities Held with an Intermediary.

doubt, notices or other communications sent by facsimile or electronic transmission). 
 (a) Change of Addresses. Any party hereto
may by written notice to each other party hereto, change the address or facsimile number at which notices or other communications are to be given to it hereunder.

 GOVERNING
LAW AND JURISDICTION 
 Section 12. (a) Governing Law. This Agreement, each Secured Account and any matter arising among the
parties under or in connection with this Agreement or any Secured Account, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. The parties hereto agree that (i) the Account Documents are hereby amended
as of the Amendment Date to provide that with respect to the Accounts, the law applicable to all issues specified in Article 2(1) of the Hague Securities Convention shall be the law of the State of New York and (ii) the Account Documents shall
collectively constitute the “account agreement” as such term is used and defined in, and for all purposes under, the Hague Securities Convention (the “Account Agreement”). The parties hereto agree that no amendment or
express reaffirmation with respect to the Account Agreement shall be entered into that would have the effect of changing the parties’ choice of law set forth in the previous sentence without the prior written consent of the parties hereto.

 (a) Jurisdiction. With respect to any suit, action or proceedings relating to this
Agreement or any matter among the parties arising under or in connection with this Agreement (“Proceedings”), each party irrevocably: (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the
courts of the State of New York and the United States District Court located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City and (ii) waives any objection which it may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceedings brought in
any such court, waives any claim that such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further waives the right to object, with respect to such Proceedings, that such court does not have any jurisdiction over such party. Nothing in
this Agreement precludes any party from bringing Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, nor will the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction. 

(b) Waiver of Jury Trial Right. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY PROCEEDING. Each party hereby (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that any other party would not, in
the event of a Proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this paragraph (c).
