AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT dated as of April 6, 2021, is among:
(a)    Tempur Sealy Receivables, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Borrower”),
(b)    Tempur Sealy International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TPX”), as initial Master Servicer,
(c)    Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association (“Wells Fargo” or a “Lender”), 
(d)    Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, a Japanese banking corporation (“SMBC” or a “Lender”), and
(e)    Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a national banking association, as administrative agent for the Lenders (together with its successors in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). 
Unless defined elsewhere herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Exhibit I.
PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS
This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety that certain Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2017, by and among Borrower, Master Servicer, and Wells Fargo, as amended from time to time prior to the date hereof (the “Existing CSA”).
In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
THE FACILITY
Section 1.1.    The Commitments.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, including the conditions set forth in Article IV:  (a) From time to time during the Revolving Period, Borrower may request Advances in accordance with Section 1.2, and (b) each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make Loans of its Percentage of the Principal amount requested on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that (i) the Aggregate Principal at any one time outstanding may not exceed the lesser of (A) the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, and (B) the Borrowing Base, and (ii) the aggregate Principal amount of the requested Advance shall be not less than $500,000 or a larger integral multiple of $250,000.  The Aggregate Commitment will automatically terminate on the Facility Termination Date.








Section 1.2.    Requesting Advances.  
(a)    If, on any Business Day during the Revolving Period, there is Borrowing Availability, Borrower may request an Incremental Advance by (a) delivering a written request in the form of Exhibit XII to this Agreement (each, a “Borrowing Request”) to the Lenders, and (b) by entering the aggregate Principal amount of the requested Advance  on-line in Wells Fargo’s electronic “C.E.O.” portal by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed Borrowing Date.  The initial Advance shall be subject to Section 4.1 hereof, and all Advances (including the initial Advance and each Rollover Advance) shall be subject to Section 4.2 hereof.  Each such request shall be irrevocable.  On the Borrowing Date of each Incremental Advance, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV, each Lender shall initiate a wire transfer to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time), of an amount equal to its Percentage of the aggregate requested Principal, and the Administrative Agent will promptly wire the amounts received to the Facility Account.  
(b)    (i) The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, wire the entire amount of the requested Advance to the Facility Account in advance of receiving each Lender’s Percentage thereof, in reliance upon the assumption that each Lender will timely fund its Percentage thereof to the Administrative Agent’s Account.  If, on the requested Borrowing Date, any Lender shall not have remitted the full amount that it is required to make available to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds and if the Administrative Agent has made available to Borrower such amount on the requested Borrowing Date, then such Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Percentage of the requested Advance available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent’s Account, no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day after the requested Borrowing Date (in which case, the interest accrued on such Lender’s portion of such Advance on the Borrowing Date shall be for the Administrative Agent’s separate account).  (ii) If any Lender shall not remit the full amount that it is required to make available to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds as and when required hereby and if the Administrative Agent has made available to Borrower such amount, then that Lender shall be obligated to immediately remit such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day until the date on which such amount is so remitted.  A notice submitted by the Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 1.2(b)(ii) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  If the amount that a Lender is required to remit is made available to the Administrative Agent, then such payment to the Administrative Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Loan for all purposes of this Agreement.  If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent will notify Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent’s account within three (3) Business Days thereafter, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans composing such Advance.








(c)    The failure of any Lender to fund its Loan comprising part of any Advance requested in any Borrowing Request into the Administrative Agent’s Account shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to so fund its Loan on the proposed Borrowing Date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by any other Lender on any Borrowing Date.  In addition, no party other than the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of the Administrative Agent to promptly wire the Loans received by it in the Administrative Agent’s Account to the Facility Account.  In the event that one or more Lenders fails to make its Loan by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the other Lenders not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date, and each of the other Lenders party to this Agreement as of such date shall make available to Borrower a supplemental Loan in a principal amount equal to the Principal amount that was unfunded multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Commitment of such Lender and the denominator of which is the aggregate Commitment of all Lenders (less the aggregate Commitment(s) of the Lender(s) failing to make Loans on such date), but in no event in excess of such Lender’s Commitment.  Such supplemental Loans shall be made by wire transfer in same-day funds no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) one Business Day following the related Borrowing Date. If any Lender which shall have failed to fund its Loan shall subsequently pay such amount, the Administrative Agent shall apply such amount pro rata to repay any supplemental Loans made by the other Lenders pursuant to this Section 1.2(c).  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable to the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity or otherwise) shall be applied by the Administrative Agent first to all other Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Percentages.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 1.2(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of any other Lender as a result of such other Lender’s increased credit exposure following such reallocation.
Section 1.3.    Reductions.  (a) If, on any Business Day, a Responsible Employee of Borrower determines or is advised that an Overadvance exists, Borrower shall notify the Lenders by Email, and Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent’s Account within two (2) Business Days thereafter (such date, a “Proposed Reduction Date”), an amount to be applied to reduce the Aggregate Principal, pro rata amongst the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages, such that after giving effect to such payment, no Overadvance exists and is continuing, and the Administrative Agent will promptly wire to each Lender its Percentage of the amount received.
(b) If, on any Business Day, Borrower wishes to make a voluntary reduction in the Aggregate Principal, Borrower shall notify Lenders by Email and wire transfer in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent’s Account the amount of Aggregate Principal to be reduced which shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a larger integral multiple of $500,000 (each, an “Aggregate Reduction”).  The Administrative Agent will promptly wire to each Lender its Percentage of the Aggregate Reduction so received.








(c) Borrower may, upon at least two (2) Business Days’ irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify each Lender), terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part pro rata amongst the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages, the unused portion of the Aggregate Commitment and the Facility Limit; provided that each partial reduction of the Facility Limit shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $2,000,000.
Section 1.4.    Payment Requirements.  All payments to the Administrative Agent for itself or for the benefit of the Lenders shall be made by wire transfer solely to the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds initiated no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day when due, and, as applicable, upon receipt, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to the Lenders their respective portions, if any, thereof.  All computations of Interest and per annum Fees under the Transaction Documents shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days for the actual number of days elapsed (or, in the case of Interest calculated by reference to the Alternate Base Rate, three hundred sixty-five (365) days or, in the case of a leap year, three hundred sixty-six (366) days), and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of all Lenders, shall invoice Borrower (with copies to the Lenders) for such Interest and per annum Fees.  If any amount hereunder shall be payable on a day which is not a Business Day, such amount shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day.
Section 1.5.    Deemed Collections.  Upon the occurrence of any Dilution, Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Deemed Collection in the amount specified in the definition of “Deemed Collection,” and the Outstanding Balance of the Receivable(s) affected thereby shall be immediately reduced by the amount of such Deemed Collection.  If, after giving effect to any Deemed Collection as a result of such Dilution, an Overadvance shall exist, Borrower shall make a payment to reduce Aggregate Principal in accordance with Section 1.3.
Section 1.6.    Interest.  (a) Prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Facility Termination Event, the Principal of each Advance shall accrue Interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Interest Rate.  Upon the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event and during the continuance thereof, Aggregate Principal shall accrue Interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.
(b)    On or before each Monthly Payment Date, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of Interest (if any) owing for the Calculation Period then most recently ended (plus any unpaid Interest, if any, that was due and not paid on a prior Monthly Payment Date) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of such amount not later than two (2) Business Days prior to such Monthly Payment Date.
(c)    Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent’s Account, for the ratable account of the Lenders in accordance with Article II, such accrued and unpaid Interest determined in accordance with this Article I.








Section 1.7.    Special Provisions Applicable to LMIR. 
(a)    Violations of Law; Cost of Funding; Temporary Unavailability of LIBOR.  If the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that (i) any Lender has reasonably determined that funding its Loan at LMIR would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive of any Governmental Authority, whether or not having the force of law, (ii) any Lender has reasonably determined that LMIR does not accurately reflect the cost to such Lender of funding or maintaining its LMIR Loans, or (iii) the Administrative Agent is unable to obtain quotations of the one-month US LIBOR on the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page or any other page that may replace such page (the “LIBOR Screen Rate”) from time to time for the purpose of displaying offered rates of leading banks for London interbank deposits in United States dollars, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such date, or if such day is not a Business Day, then the immediately preceding Business Day (or if not so reported, then as determined by the Administrative Agent from another recognized source for interbank quotation) and such determinations or unavailability of quotations described in the preceding clause (i), (ii) or (iii), as applicable, is not related to the planned cessation of LIBOR, subject to Sections 1.7(b) and (c), the Administrative Agent may suspend the availability of LMIR and require Interest on the Advances to accrue at Alternate Base Rate.
(b)    Anticipated Termination of LIBOR Quotations.  The Administrative Agent will notify Borrower (i) promptly following the occurrence of a Benchmark Replacement Event or a Term SOFR Transition Event and (ii) at least 3 Business Days prior to the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment or Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (i) the administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or with respect to any alternative, comparable or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any then-current Benchmark or any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate (including any Benchmark Replacement), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 1.7(c), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBOR Screen Rate or any other Benchmark, or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (ii) the effect or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.








(c)    Benchmark Replacement Setting.
(i) Benchmark Replacement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document (and any Hedge Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Transaction Document” for purposes of this Section 1.7(c)), if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(1) or (a)(2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Required Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that this clause (B) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and Borrower a Term SOFR Notice.  For the avoidance of doubt, other than as set forth in Section 1.7(b) above, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion.
(ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, in consultation with the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.








(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 1.7(c)(iv) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 1.7(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 1.7(c).
(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (1) a 1-month tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that a 1-month tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower,  modify the tenor for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a 1-month tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the tenor for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(v) Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any request for an Advance bearing interest at the LMIR during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to an Advance bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate.
Section 1.8.    Designated Funding Offices.  Each Lender may at its option make any Loan or otherwise perform its obligations hereunder through any of its offices, branches or Affiliates selected from time to time by such Lender and notified to Borrower (each, a “Designated Funding Office”), provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of Borrower to turn over Collections in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Any Designated Funding Office shall be considered part of such Lender; provided that such provisions that would be applicable with respect to Loans actually provided by an Affiliate or branch of such Lender shall apply to such Affiliate or branch to the same extent as they apply to such Lender.
Section 1.9.    Taxes.
(a)    For purposes of this Section 1.9, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 








(b)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the applicable Lender, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    Borrower shall indemnify each applicable Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by or on behalf of such Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Administrative Agent and Borrower by the applicable Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    [Reserved].
(f)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 1.9, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each applicable Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to each applicable Lender.
(g)    (i) If any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement, such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Loan Parties, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Loan Parties as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Loan Parties, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Loan Parties as will enable the Loan Parties to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 1.9(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the applicable Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,








(A) if a Lender is a U.S. Person, such Lender shall deliver to Borrower on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B) if a Lender is not a U.S. Person, such Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Loan Parties (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Loan Parties), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);
(3) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit IX to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms); or
(4) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit X or Exhibit XI, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit XII on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C) if A Lender is not a U.S. Person, such Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Loan Parties), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Loan Parties to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and








(D) if a payment made to or for the benefit of any Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Loan Parties at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Loan Parties such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Loan Parties as may be necessary for the Loan Parties to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Loan Parties in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 1.9 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.9), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 1.9 shall survive the termination of the commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under this Agreement.
Section 1.10.    Defaulting Lenders; Non-Consenting Lenders.
(a)    If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.1), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to this Agreement and claims for indemnification under the other Transaction Documents) and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:








(i)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to accrued and unpaid Interest and the Principal funded by such Lender, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents as part of the purchase price from the assignee, or from Borrower;
(ii)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and
(iii)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented or would have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
(b)    A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
(c)    No Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent under this Agreement (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Fee  for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such Unused Fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender for such period).
(d)    If Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to Unused Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(b)    Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.  The transactions governed by the Transaction Documents are within Borrower’s limited liability company powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company and member action.  As of (i) the Closing Date, each Transaction Document dated on the Closing Date and (ii) any date after the Closing Date on which the representations or warranties in this Section 3.1 are made, each Transaction Document dated on or prior to such date to which Borrower is a party, has, in each case, been duly executed and delivered by Borrower and, assuming due execution and delivery by all parties other than Borrower, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(c)    No Legal Bar.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which Borrower is a party, the granting of Liens pursuant hereto and thereto, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof (i) will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of Borrower and (ii) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Transaction Documents), except to the extent such violation or Lien could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
(d)    Litigation.  There are no actions, suits, investigations, criminal prosecutions, civil investigative demands, imposition of criminal or civil fines or penalties, claims, disputes or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened against or affecting Borrower (i) that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) as of the Closing Date, that involve this Agreement.
(e)    No Default.  Borrower is not in default under or with respect to any Contractual Obligation that would, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Potential Amortization Event or Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing.
(f)    Ownership of Receivables Assets; Liens.  Borrower has good title to the Receivables Assets free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens, except where such failure to have good title free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.








(g)    Taxes.  Borrower has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, material state and other Tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other Taxes imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority to the extent such Taxes have become due and payable (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of Borrower); no Tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Tax that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(h)    Federal Regulations.  No part of the proceeds of any Advance will be used (i) for “buying” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board or (ii) for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board.  No more than 25% of the assets of Borrower consist of “margin stock” as so defined.

Borrower (i) is not a “covered fund” under the Volcker Rule and (ii) is not required to register as, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or any successor statute (the “’40 Act”).  In determining that Borrower is not a covered fund, Borrower does not rely solely on the exemption from the definition of “investment company” set forth in Section 3(c)(1) and/or 3(c)(7) of the ’40 Act or is entitled to the benefit of the exclusion for loan securitizations in the Volcker Rule under 17 C.F.R. 75.10(c)(8).

The projections, pro forma financial information, forward-looking statements and estimates with respect to future performance contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.








(k)    Security Interest.  This Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a valid security interest in the Collateral and proceeds thereof, and when, in the case of Collection Accounts, Control Agreements (or amendments thereto changing the name of the secured party to the Administrative Agent or assignments thereof in favor of the Administrative Agent) are entered into by the applicable party or parties and the Collection Bank, and in the case of the other Collateral, when financing statements and amendments in appropriate form are filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of Delaware, the Administrative Agent shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of Borrower in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Aggregate Unpaids, in each case to the extent security interests in such Collateral can be perfected by the execution of Control Agreements or the filing of financing statements, as applicable, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person.

(t)    Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy.  Borrower has complied in all material respects with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract and has not made any change to such Credit and Collection Policy prohibited by Section 5.2(c) other than to the extent that such change(s) or failure(s) to so comply would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower will not change its name, identity or legal form unless it shall have:  (i) given the Administrative Agent written notice thereof within thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof and (ii) delivered to the Administrative Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such change; provided that unless a Facility Termination Event exists and is continuing hereunder and the Administrative Agent is exercising rights and remedies hereunder, Borrower shall not be required to take any action to document, grant or perfect any Lien under or pursuant to the laws of any Foreign Jurisdiction.  Borrower shall not relocate its chief executive office or any office where Records are kept unless Borrower gives the Administrative Agent notice thereof within fifteen (15) days after each such relocation.








(b)    Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors.  Except as may be required by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.2(b), such Loan Party will not add or terminate any bank as a Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to a Collection Accounts that is subject to a Control Agreement at all times or to a Lock-Box that clears through such a Collection Account unless the Administrative Agent shall have received, (i) at least five (5) Business Days before the proposed effective date therefor, written notice of such addition, termination or change and (ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Account, an executed Control Agreement; provided, however, that Master Servicer may make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to an existing Lock-Box or Collection Account that satisfies the conditions of this Section 5.2(b).
(c)    Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy.  No Loan Party will, and no Loan Party will permit any Originator to, make any change to the Credit and Collection Policy that could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the collectability of any material portion of the Receivables (taken as a whole) or materially decrease the credit quality of any material portion of the newly created Receivables (taken as a whole) unless, in each case, required to do so by applicable law, rule and/or regulation provided that Loan Parties agree to provide the Administrative Agent with written notice within thirty (30) days after making a change to the Credit and Collection Policy as a result of a Requirement of Law (to the extent that such change would not otherwise be permitted hereunder other than on account of such Requirement of Law).  Except as provided in Section 6.2(d), no Loan Party will, or will permit any Originator to, extend, amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any terms of any Contract related to such Receivable in any material adverse respect other than in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy.
(d)    Sales, Liens.

Borrower will not agree to amend or waive any provision of either of the Sale Agreements without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders).
(f)    Restricted Junior Payments.  Borrower will not make any Restricted Junior Payment:  (i) after the Amortization Date, or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Potential Facility Termination Event or Facility Termination Event, in each of the foregoing cases, of the type described in Section 7.1(a), and written direction by the Administrative Agent to Borrower blocking any additional Restricted Payments while such Facility Termination Event or Potential Facility Termination Event is continuing.

ARTICLE VI.
ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION
Section 6.1.    Designation of Master Servicer.
(a)    The servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables shall be conducted by such Person (the “Master Servicer”) so designated from time to time in accordance with this Section 6.1.  TPX is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Master Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Facility Termination Event, the Required Lenders may designate as Master Servicer any Person to succeed TPX or any successor Servicer.
(b)    TPX, in its capacity as Master Servicer, may delegate to the Originators, as sub-Servicers of Master Servicer, its duties and responsibilities as Master Servicer hereunder in respect of the Receivables originated by such Originators.  Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, Master Servicer shall not be permitted to delegate any of its duties or responsibilities as Master Servicer to any Person other than (i) the Originators, and (ii) with respect to certain Charged-Off Receivables, outside collection agencies or collection attorneys in accordance with its customary practices.  Borrower shall not be permitted to further delegate to any other Person any of the duties or responsibilities of Master Servicer delegated to it by TPX.  If at any time following the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event, the Required Lenders shall designate as Master Servicer any Person other than TPX, all duties and responsibilities theretofore delegated by TPX to Borrower or any Originator may, at the discretion of the Required Lenders, be terminated forthwith on notice given by the Required Lenders to TPX and to Borrower.








(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (b), (i) Master Servicer shall be and remain primarily liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the full and prompt performance of all duties and responsibilities of Master Servicer hereunder and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Master Servicer in matters relating to the discharge by Master Servicer of its duties and responsibilities hereunder.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be required to give notice, demand or other communication to any Person other than Master Servicer in order for communication to Master Servicer and its sub-Servicer or other delegate with respect thereto to be accomplished.  Master Servicer, at all times that it is Master Servicer, shall be responsible for providing any sub-Servicer or other delegate of Master Servicer with any notice given to Master Servicer under this Agreement.
Section 6.2.    Duties of Master Servicer.
(a)    Master Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such actions as may be necessary or advisable to collect each Receivable from time to time, in Master Servicer’s good faith business judgment, all in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy of each respective Originator.
(b)    Master Servicer will instruct all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Collection Account or to a Lock-Box that clears through such a Collection Account.  Borrower shall cause a Control Agreement in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to be in effect with respect to each Collection Account at all times.  In the case of any remittances received in a Collection Account that shall have been identified, to the satisfaction of Master Servicer, to not constitute Collections or other proceeds of the Collateral, Master Servicer shall promptly remit such items to the Person identified to it as being the owner of such remittances.
(c)    Master Servicer (and from and after the Dominion Date, the Administrative Agent) shall administer the Collections in accordance with the procedures described herein and in Article II.  At any time while Collections are received by Master Servicer, whether through a Lock-Box, a Collection Account or otherwise, and a Responsible Person of Master Servicer has actual knowledge thereof, Master Servicer shall segregate and hold in trust for the account of Borrower and the Administrative Agent their respective shares of such Collections prior to the remittance thereof in accordance with Article II.
(d)    Master Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, extend the maturity of any Receivable or adjust the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable as Master Servicer determines to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof; provided, however, that such extension or adjustment shall not alter the status of such Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable, Defaulted Receivable or Charged-Off Receivable or limit the rights of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, following the occurrence and during continuation of a Facility Termination Event, the Administrative Agent shall have the absolute and unlimited right to direct Master Servicer to commence or settle any legal action with respect to any Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security.








(e)    Master Servicer shall hold in trust for Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all Records in its possession that (i) evidence or relate to the Receivables, the related Contracts and Related Security or (ii) are otherwise necessary or desirable to collect the Receivables and shall, following the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event that is continuing, as soon as practicable upon demand of the Administrative Agent while the Administrative Agent is exercising rights and remedies hereunder, make available to the Administrative Agent all such Records.  Master Servicer shall, from time to time at the reasonable request of the  Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of such Facility Termination Event, furnish to the Administrative Agent (promptly after any such request) a calculation of the amounts set aside for the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II.
(f)    Any payment by an Obligor into a Collection Account (whether directly or via a Lock-Box) on account of a Receivable shall, if a Responsible Person of the applicable Originator (in the case of a payment to an Originator) or Borrower has actual knowledge thereof, except as otherwise specified by such Obligor or otherwise required by Contract or law and unless otherwise instructed by the Administrative Agent, be applied as a Collection of Receivables of such Obligor starting with the oldest such Receivable to the extent of any amounts then due and payable thereunder.
Section 6.3.    Collection Accounts.  Subject to the terms of the applicable Control Agreement, Borrower shall grant to the secured party (i.e., Wells Fargo and from and after May 6, 2021, Wells Fargo in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over each Collection Account.  Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, and agrees that such secured party  shall be entitled (a) after the occurrence of the Dominion Date, to endorse Borrower’s name on checks and other instruments representing Collections and take such action as shall be necessary or desirable to cause all cash, checks and other instruments constituting Collections of Receivables to come into the possession of the Administrative Agent rather than Borrower, and (b) after the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event that is continuing, to enforce the Receivables, the related Contracts and the Related Security.
Section 6.4.    Collection Notices.  The Administrative Agent is authorized to deliver to the Lock-Box Banks the Collection Notices with respect to the Collection Accounts upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Amortization Event or Potential Facility Termination Event under Section 7.1(a).  Subject to the terms of the applicable Control Agreement, Borrower has transferred to the secured party (i.e., Wells Fargo or from and after May 6, 2021, Wells Fargo in its capacity as the Administrative Agent), exclusive “control” over the Sweep Account and each future Collection Account; provided that Borrower shall retain access to the Collection Accounts prior to delivery of the Collection Notices.  In case any authorized signatory of Borrower whose signature appears on a Control Agreement shall cease to have such authority before the delivery of such notice, such Collection Notice shall nevertheless be valid as if such authority had remained in force.  
Section 6.5.    Responsibilities of Borrower.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its rights hereunder shall not release Master Servicer, any Originator or Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Receivables or under the related Contracts, as applicable.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of Borrower or the applicable Originator.








Section 6.6.    Reports.  
(a)    On each Interim Reporting Date (if any), Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver via Email not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Lenders an Interim Report.
(b)    On each Monthly Reporting Date, Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver via Email not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) to the Lenders, a Monthly Report for the calendar month then most recently ended.
(c)    At such times as any Lender shall reasonably request, Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver via Email not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) five (5) Business Days after such request a listing by Obligor of all Receivables together with an aging of such Receivables provided that (i) Master Servicer shall not be required to deliver such report to the Lenders more than once per calendar year and (ii) such report shall be calculated as of the end of the Calculation Period preceding the Calculation Period during which such request was made.
Section 6.7.    Servicing Fees.  In consideration of TPX’s agreement to act as the initial Master Servicer hereunder, so long as TPX shall continue to perform as Master Servicer hereunder, TPX shall be paid a fee (the “Servicing Fee”) on each Monthly Payment Date, in arrears for the immediately preceding Calculation Period, equal to 1.00% per annum of the average aggregate Outstanding Balance of all Receivables during such period.  At any time while Master Servicer is not an Affiliate of Borrower, the Servicing Fee shall be computed at such rate per annum as the Administrative Agent, Borrower and the substitute Master Servicer may mutually agree.
ARTICLE VII.
FACILITY TERMINATION EVENTS

(e)    (i) Any Loan Party or Material Originator shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) any proceeding shall be instituted by or against any Loan Party or Material Originator seeking to adjudicate it bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for it or any substantial part of its property and, except in the case of a proceeding involving such Loan Party or Material Originator which was instituted by, or with the cooperation of, or acquiesced in by, such Loan Party or Material Originator, such proceeding remains undismissed, unvacated or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days; or (iii) the board of directors or similar governing body of such Loan Party or Material Originator shall adopt any corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership, as applicable, resolution to authorize any of the actions set forth in clauses (i) or (ii) of this subsection (e).

EXHIBIT I
DEFINITIONS
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement (including this Exhibit I for the avoidance of doubt), are used with the meanings attributed thereto in the RSCA.
Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references in this Agreement (i) to any Person (other than Borrower) shall be deemed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, and (ii) to any law, agreement, statute or contract specifically defined or referred to in this Agreement shall be deemed references to such law, agreement, statute or contract as the same may be supplemented, amended, waived, consolidated, replaced or modified from time to time, but only to the extent permitted by, and effected in accordance with, the terms thereof.  The words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any provision of this Agreement, and references to “Article,” “Section,” “paragraph,” “Exhibit,” “Schedule” and “Appendix” are references to this Agreement unless otherwise specified.  Whenever the context so requires, words importing any gender include the other gender.  Any of the defined terms may, unless the context otherwise requires, be used in the singular or the plural depending on the reference; the singular includes the plural and the plural includes the singular.  The word “or” shall not be exclusive.
All accounting terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned them in conformity with GAAP.  All terms used in Article 9 of the UCC and not specifically defined in this Agreement shall be defined herein and in the Transaction Documents as such terms are defined in Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the State of New York.  Each reference to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any other agreement shall be a reference to such agreement together with all exhibits, schedules, attachments and appendices thereto, in each case as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof unless otherwise expressly stated.  References to “writing” include telecopying, printing, typing, lithography and other means of reproducing words in a tangible visible form including computer generated information accessible in tangible visible form.  References to “written” include faxed, printed, typed, lithographed and other means of reproducing words or symbols in a tangible visible form consistent with the preceding sentence.  The words “including,” “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.  For purposes of determining any ratio or making financial calculations hereunder that include a reference to one or more months in such determination, such reference shall be deemed a reference to a Calculation Period.
If at any time any change in GAAP (including the adoption of IFRS) would affect any covenant or other provision of this Agreement, including without limitation, the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Transaction Document, and either Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent and Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such covenant or other provision to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided that, until so amended, (i) such covenant or other provision shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) Borrower shall deliver a certificate in reasonable detail specifying the nature of such change and the effect thereof on such calculations.  Notwithstanding any other provisions set forth herein, leases shall continue to be classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the Audited Financial Statements for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.








The phrase “in consultation with Borrower” shall be deemed to mean “after discussion with Borrower,” but, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be deemed to imply that Borrower’s consent to or concurrence with the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ decided course of action.
Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, any period of time ending on a day which is not a Business Day shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.  Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, in the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to but excluding.”

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, such Person or any Subsidiary of such Person.

“Amortization Date” means the earlier to occur of (a) the Business Day immediately prior to the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event set forth in Section 7.1(e) and (b) the Business Day specified in a written notice from the Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during continuation of any other Amortization Event.

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark or (y) otherwise, a period of one-month.
“Benchmark” means, initially, LMIR; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to USD LIBOR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to Section 1.7(c)(i).
“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor,
(a)    with respect to any Benchmark Transition Event or Early Opt-in Election, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date:
(1)    the sum of: (A) Term SOFR and (B) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, if Borrower has provided a notification to the Administrative Agent in writing on or prior to such Benchmark Replacement Date that Borrower has a Hedge Agreement in place with respect to any of the Loans as of the date of such notice (which such notification the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon and shall have no duty or obligation to ascertain the correctness or completeness of), then the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may decide not to determine the Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this clause (a)(1) for such Benchmark Transition Event or Early Opt-in Election, as applicable;
(2)    the sum of: (A) Daily Simple SOFR and (B) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
(3)    the sum of: (A) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (B) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or
(b)    with respect to any Term SOFR Transition Event, the sum of (i) Term SOFR and (ii) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;








provided that, (i) in the case of clause (a)(1), if the Administrative Agent decides that Term SOFR is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then Term SOFR will be deemed unable to be determined for purposes of this definition and (ii) in the case of clause (a)(1) or clause (b) of this definition, the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.  If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (a)(1), (a)(2) or (a)(3) or clause (b) of this definition would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement: 
(1)    for purposes of clauses (a)(1) and (a)(2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower:
(a)    the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of such Available Tenor of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement;
(b)    the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Available Tenor of such Benchmark; 
(2)    for purposes of clause (a)(3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and Borrower giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Available Tenor of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Available Tenor of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities; and
(3)    for purposes of clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of such Available Tenor of USD LIBOR with a SOFR-based rate;








provided that, (x) in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and (y) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, more than one tenor of such Benchmark is available as of the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement that will replace such Benchmark in accordance with Section 1.7(c)(i) will not be a term rate, the Available Tenor of such Benchmark for purposes of this definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” shall be deemed to be, with respect to each Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement having a payment period for interest calculated with reference thereto, the Available Tenor that has approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustments) as such payment period.
“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate, the definition of “Business Day,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower,  decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents). 
“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:
(1)    in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);
(2)    in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein;
(3)    in the case of a Term SOFR Transition Event, the date that is thirty (30) days after the Administrative Agent has provided the Term SOFR Notice to the Lenders and Borrower pursuant to Section 1.7(c)(i)(B); or
(4)    in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.








For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).
“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:
(1)    a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);
(2)    a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the FRB, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or
(3)    a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer representative.
For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).
“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) of that definition has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance with Section 1.7(c) and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance with Section 1.7(c).
“Borrower” has the meaning set forth in the preamble to this Agreement.








“Borrowing Base” means, on any date of determination, the Adjusted Net Pool Balance less the Required Reserves.
“Borrowing Date” means the Business Day on which an Incremental Advance or a Rollover Advance is made.
