 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:

Amendments to the Existing Agreement. The Existing Agreement is, effective as of the date hereof, hereby amended as follows: 
 (a) Section 7(j) of the Existing Agreement is hereby amended and restated in full to read as follows: 
 “(j) Compliance with Servicing Agreements. Each Seller will comply with the terms and conditions of the Servicing Agreements to which it is a party, except for where failure to so comply would not have a Material Adverse Effect
and would not impair the right, title or interest of Purchaser in any Purchased Assets or impair the collectibility of any Purchased Receivables. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller will notify the Purchaser in writing as soon as practicable

Receivable Balance of Purchased Receivables, in each case as of the date of termination) of all Designated Servicing Agreements then included in the facility, but any such occurrence shall only constitute a Termination Event upon Purchaser’s
written notice to Sellers that the Purchaser has determined, in its sole discretion, that such occurrence constitutes a Termination Event; or”

 (a) It is a
limited liability company duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware. 
 (b) Neither
(1) the execution and delivery of this Amendment, nor (2) the consummation of the transactions herein and contemplated in the Existing Agreement in compliance with the terms and provisions hereof and/or thereof, as the case may be, will
conflict with or result in a breach of the limited liability company agreement or other constitutive documents, as applicable, of either Seller, or any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental
Authority, or other agreement or instrument to which such Person, or any of its subsidiaries, is a party or by which any of them or any of their property is bound or to which any of them or their property is subject, or constitute a default under
any such agreement or instrument, or (except for the liens created or permitted pursuant to the Existing Agreement or any other Purchase Document to which such Seller is a party) result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any property of
such Person, pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument, except where such conflict or breach, default or lien would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) There are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the best knowledge of such Seller, threatened, against such Seller before any Governmental
Authority (1) asserting the invalidity of this Amendment, the Existing Agreement or any other Purchase Document, (2) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Amendment, the Existing Agreement or
any other Purchase Document, (3) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of such Seller, would materially and adversely affect the performance by such Seller of its obligations under this Amendment, the Existing
Agreement or any other Purchase Document, or (4) seeking any determination or ruling that, in the reasonable judgment of such Seller, would materially and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Amendment, the Existing Agreement
or any other Purchase Document.

hereby, except for consents, approvals, authorizations and orders which have been obtained.

Existing Agreement.

Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Existing Agreement, shall mean and be a reference to the Existing Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. 
 (b) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Purchaser under
Existing Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, the Existing Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, unmodified. 
 SECTION
4. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.
