1.           Definitions.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture.


 


2.           Powers
and Duties of Collateral Administrator.


 


(a)          The
Issuer hereby appoints U.S. Bank, and U.S. Bank hereby accepts its appointment, as the Issuer's agent to act as Collateral Administrator
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, until the earlier of U.S. Bank's resignation or removal as Collateral Administrator pursuant

each case in such form and content, and in such detail, as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto from time to time
and as may be required by the Indenture), based upon information and data received from the Issuer and/or the Collateral Manager
(in addition to certain information that may be received from the Trustee in respect of Eligible Investments and cash balances
in Accounts, as provided herein), which reports, schedules and calculations the Issuer or the Collateral Manager, on its behalf,
is required to prepare and deliver or perform (or which are necessary to be performed in order that certain reports, schedules
and calculations can be performed as required) under Section 10.5 of the Indenture. The Collateral Administrator's duties and authority
to act as Collateral Administrator hereunder are limited to the duties and authority specifically set forth in this Agreement.
By entering into, or performing its duties under, this Agreement, the Collateral Administrator shall not be deemed to assume any
obligations or liabilities of the Issuer under the Indenture, or of the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement
or the Indenture, and nothing herein contained shall be deemed to release, terminate, discharge, limit, reduce, diminish, modify,
amend or otherwise alter in any respect the duties, obligations or liabilities of the Issuer or the Trustee under or pursuant to
the Indenture or of the Collateral Manager under or pursuant to the Indenture or the Collateral Management Agreement.

access to the information contained therein to the Collateral Manager and the Issuer;


 






    	Page 2



    	 



    

 


(ii)         Update
the Collateral Database on a daily basis for changes, including for  Moody's and Standard & Poor's ratings changes,
and to reflect the sale or other disposition of the Portfolio Assets included in the Collateral and the addition to the Collateral
of additional Portfolio Assets and Eligible Investments from time to time and any amendment or change to loan amounts held as Collateral,
in each case based upon, and to the extent of, information furnished to the Collateral Administrator by the Issuer, Collateral
Manager or the Liquidation Agent as may be reasonably required by the Collateral Administrator from time to time, or that may be
provided by the Trustee (based upon notices received by the Trustee from the issuer, trustee or agent bank under an Underlying
Instrument, or other similar source);


 


(iii)        Track
the receipt and daily allocation to the Accounts of Interest Collections and Principal Collections and any withdrawals therefrom
and, on each Business Day, provide to the Collateral Manager daily reports reflecting such actions to the Accounts as of the close
of business on the preceding Business Day, and provide to the Trustee such other information as may be needed by the Trustee with
respect to the Priority of Payments and Payment Dates; and


 


(iv)        Prepare,
on behalf of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager on the Issuer's behalf, and arrange for delivery in accordance with the Indenture
within the time frames stated therein, (A) beginning in April 2015, a draft of the Payment Date Reports pursuant to the terms
of Section 10.5(a) of the Indenture, on the basis of the information contained in the Collateral Database as of the applicable
Determination Date (and in that regard cooperate with the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer, in connection with the comparison
of information and discrepancies, if any, required under the penultimate paragraph of said Section 10.5(a) of the Indenture), and
(B) beginning on the day after the Closing Date as and to the extent mutually agreed, and thereafter on a fully operational basis
as promptly as the Collateral Administrator is able to do so with commercially reasonable efforts, each Daily Report required to
be delivered under Section 10.5(c) of the Indenture and each Weekly Report required to be delivered under Section 10.5(b) of the
Indenture and any reports delivered on the Redemption Date pursuant to Section 10.5(d) of the Indenture (the "Redemption

(c)          The
Collateral Manager shall cooperate with the Collateral Administrator in connection with the matters described herein, including
the preparation by the Collateral Administrator of the Payment Date Reports, Daily Reports, Weekly Reports and other statements
and certifications required in connection with the purchase and sale of the Collateral under the Indenture.  Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Collateral Manager shall supply in a timely fashion any information maintained by it that
the Collateral Administrator may from time to time request with respect to the Collateral and reasonably need1
in order to complete the reports and certificates and calculations required to be prepared by the Collateral Administrator
hereunder or required to permit the Collateral Administrator to perform its obligations hereunder, including without limitation,
the market value and categorization of a Portfolio Asset, to the extent required by the Indenture, and any other information that
may be reasonably required under the Indenture with respect to a Defaulted Obligation (including, without limitation, promptly
notifying the Collateral Administrator upon any Portfolio Asset becoming a Defaulted Obligation or Equity Security). Except with
respect to the Daily Reports, the Collateral Manager shall review, verify and approve the contents of the aforesaid reports, instructions,
statements and certificates and shall send such reports, instructions, statements and certificates to the Issuer for execution
(or shall execute the same on behalf of the Issuer) as may be required by the Indenture (and in accordance with the Collateral
Management Agreement), and furnish such signed reports to the Collateral Administrator for prompt distribution in accordance with
the Indenture. To the extent any of the information in such reports, instructions, statements and certificates conflicts with
data or calculations in the records of the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Manager shall notify the Collateral Administrator
of such discrepancy and use reasonable efforts to assist the Collateral Administrator in reconciling such discrepancy. The Collateral
Manager shall cooperate with the Collateral Administrator by answering questions posed by the Collateral Administrator that are
reasonably related to such reports, instructions, statements and certificates. The Collateral Administrator shall provide such
items (other than the Daily Reports and Weekly Reports) to the Collateral Manager no later than 3 Business Days prior to the due
date as set forth above to enable such review by the Collateral Manager. At the instruction of the Collateral Manager, the Collateral
Administrator shall attach to any reports such additional information that is timely provided by the Collateral Manager and independently
prepared by, or on behalf of the Collateral Manager. The Collateral Manager shall be solely responsible for the content of any
such additional information.


 


(d)          If,
in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Administrator is required to decide between alternative courses of
action, the Collateral Administrator may request written instructions from the Collateral Manager, acting on behalf of the Issuer,
as to the course of action desired by it. If for any reason the Collateral Administrator does not receive such instructions within
two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Administrator may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain
from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Administrator shall act in accordance with instructions received after such
two-Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or committed itself to take action inconsistent with such instructions.
The Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent accountants in performing
its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice. The Collateral
Administrator shall have no obligation or determine any market value or market price in connection with any actions or duties under
this Agreement.

Note to MVA: This should be “need” and not “needed” because it references information the
CA may reasonably need to complete the reports etc.

(e)          Nothing
herein shall prevent the Collateral Administrator or any of its affiliates from engaging in other businesses or from rendering
services of any kind to any Person.


 


(f)          Without
limiting its reporting obligations under this Agreement, the Collateral Administrator shall have no obligation to determine (and
the Collateral Manager will timely advise the Collateral Administrator) (i) whether any Portfolio Asset satisfies the criteria
for the acquisition thereof as set forth in the Indenture, including without limitation, as set forth in the definitions of "Asset
Eligibility Criteria", "Defaulted Obligation", "DIP Loan", "Equity Security", "Loan",
"Margin Stock", "Participation Interest", "Portfolio Asset", "Second Lien Loan", "Senior
Secured Loan" or "Structured Finance Obligation" or (ii) whether the conditions specified in the definition

3.           Compensation.
The Issuer agrees to pay, and the Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to receive compensation for, and reimbursement for
reasonable expenses in connection with, the Collateral Administrator's performance of the duties called for herein as set forth
in a separate fee letter; provided that, such amounts will be payable solely as Administrative Expenses from the Expense
Account in accordance with and as contemplated by Section 10.3(c) of the Indenture and the Equity Contribution Agreement or according
to the Priority of Payments.


 


4.           Limitation
of Responsibility of the Collateral Administrator; Indemnification.


 


(a)          The
Collateral Administrator will have no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services expressly called for
hereunder in good faith and without willful misconduct, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder. The Collateral
Administrator shall incur no liability to anyone in acting or relying upon any signature, instrument, statement, notice, resolution,
request, direction, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to
be genuine and reasonably believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The Collateral Administrator may exercise
any of its rights or powers hereunder or perform any of its duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys,
and the Collateral Administrator shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney
appointed hereunder with due care by it. The Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for errors in judgment made by it in
good faith unless it was grossly negligent in ascertaining pertinent facts. Neither the Collateral Administrator nor any of its
affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees will be liable to the Collateral Manager, the Issuer or any
other Person, except by reason of acts or omissions by the Collateral Administrator constituting willful misconduct, or gross negligence
in the performance of the Collateral Administrator's duties hereunder. The Collateral Administrator shall in no event have any
liability for the actions or omissions of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or any other Person, and shall have no liability for
any inaccuracy or error in any duty performed by it that results from or is caused by inaccurate, untimely or incomplete information
or data received by it from the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or another Person (other than the Trustee, if the same Person shall
be serving as Trustee and Collateral Administrator hereunder) except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused
by the Collateral Administrator's own willful misconduct, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder. The Collateral
Administrator shall not be liable for failing to perform or delay in performing its specified duties hereunder which results from
or is caused by (i) a failure or delay on the part of the Issuer, the Collateral Manager or another Person (other than the Trustee,
if the same Person shall be serving as Trustee and Collateral Administrator hereunder) in furnishing necessary, timely and accurate
information to the Collateral Administrator except to the extent that failure or delay is caused by the Collateral Administrator's
own willful misconduct, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder; or by (ii) events or circumstances beyond
its reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of war or terrorism, governmental or quasi-governmental actions, including
the suspension of trading or the suspension of foreign exchange, interruptions of telecommunications or other utilities and other
force majeure events. The duties and obligations of the Collateral Administrator and its employees or agents shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Agreement and they shall not be under any obligation or duty except for the performance
of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth herein, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Agreement
against them. The Collateral Administrator may consult with counsel and shall be protected in any action taken in good faith in
accordance with the advice of such counsel.

(b)          The
Collateral Administrator may rely conclusively on any notice, certificate or other document (including, without limitation, telecopier
or other electronically transmitted instructions, documents or information) furnished to it hereunder and reasonably believed by
it in good faith to be genuine. The Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably
believed by it to be within the discretion or powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction
by which it is governed hereunder, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby
for such action. The Collateral Administrator shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in
any certificate, report or other document; provided that, if the form thereof is prescribed by this Agreement, the Collateral
Administrator shall examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof. The Collateral Administrator
shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to an Officer of the Collateral Administrator.
Under no circumstances shall the Collateral Administrator be liable for indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages (including
but not limited to lost profits) under or pursuant to this Agreement, its duties or obligations hereunder or arising out of or
relating to the subject matter hereof. It is expressly acknowledged by the Issuer and the Collateral Manager that application and
performance by the Collateral Administrator of its various duties hereunder (including recalculations to be performed in respect
of the matters contemplated hereby) shall be based upon, and in reliance upon, data and information provided to it by the Collateral
Manager (and/or the Issuer) with respect to the Collateral, and the Collateral Administrator shall have no responsibility for the
accuracy of any such information or data provided to it by such persons. Nothing herein shall impose or imply any duty or obligation
on the part of the Collateral Administrator to verify, investigate or audit any such information or data (except to the extent
any such information provided is patently incorrect or inconsistent with any proximally received information or instruction, in
which case the Collateral Administrator shall investigate any such discrepancy), or to determine or monitor on an independent basis
whether any issuer of the Collateral is in default or in compliance with the underlying documents governing or securing such securities,
from time to time, the role of the Collateral Administrator hereunder being solely to perform certain mathematical computations
and data comparisons, and to render certain reports, all as provided herein. For purposes of monitoring changes in ratings, the
Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to use and rely (in good faith) exclusively upon a single reputable electronic financial
information reporting service(s) and shall have no liability for any inaccuracies in the information reported by, of other errors
or omissions of, any such service. The rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Trustee under
the Indenture shall also be afforded to the Collateral Administrator hereunder.

(c)          If
the same Person is not serving as both Collateral Administrator and Trustee, the Collateral Administrator shall not be bound to
follow any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to the Indenture or other transaction document until it has received written
notice of such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver and a copy thereof from the Issuer or the Trustee; provided
that, the Collateral Administrator shall not be bound by any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to the Indenture or
other Transaction Document that materially adversely affects the rights or obligations of the Collateral Administrator unless the
Collateral Administrator shall have consented thereto.


 


(d)          The
Issuer and Collateral Manager shall, and hereby agree to, jointly and severally reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral
Administrator and its affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, agents and employees for and from any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, demands, charges, costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and other experts) and claims
of any nature in respect of, or arising from any acts or omissions performed or omitted by the Collateral Administrator, its affiliates,
directors, officers, shareholders, agents or employees pursuant to or in connection with the terms of this Agreement, or in the
performance or observance of its duties or obligations under this Agreement; provided that (i) the same are in good faith
and without willful misconduct and/or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder on the part of the Collateral
Administrator; and (ii) such amounts will be payable as Administrative Expenses from the Expense Account in accordance with and
as contemplated by Section 10.3(c) of the Indenture and the Equity Contribution Agreement or, in the case of a Contribution Event,
according to the Priority of Payments. In connection with the aforesaid indemnification provisions, upon reasonable prior notice,
any indemnified party will afford to the applicable indemnifying party the right, in its sole discretion and at its sole expense,
to assume the defense of any claim, including, but not limited to, the right to designate counsel reasonably acceptable to such
indemnified party, and to control all negotiations, litigation, arbitration, settlements, compromises and appeals of such claim;
provided that (A) if the indemnifying party so assumes the defense of such claim, it shall not be liable for any fees and
expenses of separate counsel for such indemnified party incurred thereafter in connection with such claim except that if such indemnified
party reasonably determines that counsel designated by such indemnifying party has a conflict of interest, such indemnifying party
shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursement of one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from its own counsel
for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or any separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction
arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances; and (B) prior to entering into any final settlement or compromise,
such indemnifying party shall seek the consent of the indemnified parties and use its best efforts in the light of then prevailing
circumstances (including, without limitation, any express or implied time constraint on any pending settlement offer) to obtain
the consent of each such indemnified party as to the terms of such final settlement or compromise. If an indemnified party shall
not consent to the terms of a final proposed settlement or compromise within a reasonable time under the circumstances, the indemnifying
party shall not thereafter be obligated to indemnify such indemnified party for any amounts in excess of such proposed final settlement
or compromise.

(e)          Without
limiting the generality of any terms of this Section 4, the Collateral Administrator shall have no liability for any failure, inability
or unwillingness on the part of the Collateral Manager or Issuer (or Trustee, if not the same Person as the Collateral Administrator)
to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Collateral Administrator, or otherwise on the part of any
such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement, the Indenture or Collateral Management Agreement, and shall have no liability
for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Collateral Administrator's part of any of its duties hereunder
that is caused by or results from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by it, or other failure on the
part of any such other party to comply with the terms hereof.


 


(f)          Nothing
herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to determine independently the characteristics or categorization of any Portfolio
Asset, or to evaluate or verify the Collateral Manager's categorization of any Portfolio Asset, it being understood that any such
determination shall be the responsibility of the Collateral Manager (and shall be included by the Collateral Administrator in the
Collateral Database based exclusively upon the information and any categorization it may receive from the Collateral Manager).
In no instance shall the Collateral Administration be under an obligation or duty to determine or investigate whether any item
of Collateral meets the definition of "Portfolio Asset."


 


5.           No
Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) shall constitute the Issuer, the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral
Manager members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business or other separate entity, (ii)
shall be construed to impose any liability as such on any of them or (iii) shall be deemed to confer on any of them any express,
implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of the others.


 


6.           Term.
This Agreement shall continue in effect so long as the Indenture remains in effect with respect to the Notes, unless this Agreement
has been previously terminated in accordance with Section 7 hereof; provided, that the Collateral Administrator shall be
released from its obligations hereunder upon its ceasing to act as Collateral Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
indemnification obligations of all parties under Section 4 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the resignation
or removal of the Collateral Administrator or the release of any party hereto with respect to matters occurring prior to such termination,
resignation, removal or release.

If at any time
prior to the payment in full of the obligations under the Notes, the Collateral Administrator shall resign or be removed as Trustee
under the Indenture, such resignation or removal shall be deemed a resignation or removal of the Collateral Administrator hereunder
(without any requirement for separate notice).


 


(b)          At
the option of the Issuer, this Agreement may be terminated upon ten days' written notice of termination from the Issuer to the
Collateral Administrator if any of the following events shall occur:


 


(i)          if

(iv)        the
Collateral Administrator is dissolved (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger) or has a resolution passed
for its winding-up, official management or liquidation (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger).


 


If any of the events
specified in clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this Section 7(b) shall occur, this Agreement shall terminate automatically and the
Collateral Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager after the happening
of such event.


 


(c)          Except
when the Collateral Administrator shall be removed pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 7 or shall resign pursuant to subsection

a successor Collateral Administrator reasonably acceptable to the Issuer shall have agreed in writing to assume all of the Collateral
Administrator's duties and obligations pursuant to this Agreement and shall have executed and delivered an agreement in form and
content reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Collateral Manager. Upon any resignation or removal of the Collateral Administrator
hereunder, the Issuer shall promptly, and in any case within ninety (90) days after the related notice of resignation or removal,
appoint a qualified successor to act as collateral administrator hereunder and cause such successor collateral administrator to
execute and deliver an agreement accepting such appointment as described in the preceding sentence. If the Issuer fails to appoint
such a qualified successor which duly accepts its appointment by properly executing and delivering such an agreement within such
time, the retiring Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor to serve as collateral administrator hereunder and shall be indemnified pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof for the
reasonable costs and expenses thereof.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Collateral Administrator may resign its duties hereunder without any requirement that a successor Collateral

at least 90 days prior written notice to the Collateral Manager and the Issuer, upon any reasonable determination by U.S. Bank
that the taking of any action that it has been requested to perform as Collateral Administrator pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
would be in conflict with or in violation of its duties or obligations as Trustee under the Indenture and after notice of such
determination, the requesting party has not withdrawn or modified such request, or (C) upon at least 90 days' prior written notice
of termination to the Collateral Manager and the Issuer upon the occurrence of any of the following events and the failure to cure
such event within such 90 day notice period: (i) failure of the Issuer or the Collateral Manager to pay any of the amounts specified
in Section 3 hereof within 90 days after such amount is due pursuant to Section 3 hereof or (ii) failure of the Issuer to provide

8.           Representations
and Warranties.


 


(a)          The
Collateral Manager hereby represents and warrants to the Issuer and the Collateral Administrator as follows:


 


(i)          The
Collateral Manager is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland and has full power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform this Agreement and all obligations required hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize
this Agreement on the terms and conditions hereof, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the performance
of all obligations imposed upon it hereunder. No consent of any other person including, without limitation, partners and creditors
of the Collateral Manager, and no license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration,
filing or declaration with, any governmental authority, except those that have been obtained, is required by the Collateral Manager
in connection with this Agreement or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and the
obligations imposed upon it hereunder. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Collateral Manager
enforceable against the Collateral Manager in accordance with their terms subject, as to enforcement, (a) to the effect of bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights as such laws would apply in the event of any
bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency or similar event applicable to the Collateral Manager and (b) to general equitable principles
(whether enforceability of such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).


 


(ii)         The
execution, delivery and performance by the Collateral Manager of this Agreement and the documents and instruments required hereunder
will not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation binding on the Collateral Manager, or any order, judgment, award
or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority binding on the Collateral Manager, or the governing instruments of,
or any securities, the Collateral Manager or of any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement, instrument or undertaking
to which the Collateral Manager is a party or by which the Collateral Manager or any of its assets may be bound, the violation
of which would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets or financial condition of the Collateral Manager
and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien on any of its property, assets or revenues pursuant
to the provisions of any such mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement, instrument or undertaking.

power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all obligations required hereunder and has taken all necessary
action to authorize this Agreement on the terms and conditions hereof, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement

enforceable against the Issuer in accordance with their terms subject, as to enforcement, (a) to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency
or similar laws affecting generally the enforcement of creditors' rights as such laws would apply in the event of any bankruptcy,
receivership, insolvency or similar event applicable to the Issuer and (b) to general equitable principles (whether enforceability
of such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).


 


(ii)         
The execution, delivery and performance by the Issuer of this Agreement and the documents and instruments required hereunder will
not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation binding on the Issuer, or any order, judgment, award or decree of any
court, arbitrator or governmental authority binding on the Issuer, or the constitutional documents of, or any securities issued
by, the Issuer or of any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement, instrument or undertaking to which the Issuer
is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its assets may be bound, the violation of which would have a material adverse effect
on the business, operations, assets or financial condition of the Issuer and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition
of any lien on any of its property, assets or revenues pursuant to the provisions of any such mortgage, indenture, lease, contract
or other agreement, instrument or undertaking.


 


(c)          The
Collateral Administrator hereby represents and warrants to the Collateral Manager and the Issuer as follows:


 






    	Page 12



    	 



    

 


(i)          The
Collateral Administrator is a national banking association with trust powers duly organized and validly existing under the laws
of the United States of America and has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and all

person including, without limitation, stockholders and creditors of the Collateral Administrator, and no license, permit, approval
or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority,
except those that have been obtained, is required by the Collateral Administrator in connection with this Agreement or the execution,
delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement and the obligations imposed upon it hereunder. This Agreement
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Collateral Administrator enforceable against the Collateral Administrator
in accordance with their terms subject, as to enforcement, (a) to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting
generally the enforcement of creditors' rights as such laws would apply in the event of any bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency
or similar event applicable to the Collateral Administrator and (b) to general equitable principles (whether enforceability of
such principles is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity).


 


(ii)         The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the documents and instruments required hereunder will not violate any
provision of any existing law or regulation binding on the Collateral Administrator, or any order, judgment, award or decree of
any court, arbitrator or governmental authority binding on the Collateral Administrator, or the certificate or articles of association
or incorporation or by-laws of the Collateral Administrator or of any mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement,
instrument or undertaking to which the Collateral Administrator is a party or by which the Collateral Administrator or any of its
assets may be bound, the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, assets or financial
condition of the Collateral Administrator and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien on any of
its property, assets or revenues pursuant to the provisions of any such mortgage, indenture, lease, contract or other agreement,
instrument or undertaking.


 


9.           Confidential

13.         Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of each of the Collateral
Manager, the Issuer and the Collateral Administrator; provided that:


 


(i)          the
Collateral Administrator may not transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) any of its rights and obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Collateral Manager and the Issuer, except that the Collateral Administrator may perform duties
through attorneys and agents as provided in Section 4(a) hereof;


 


(ii)         the
Issuer may not transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) any of its rights and obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Collateral Manager and the Collateral Administrator, except that (x) each of the Collateral Manager and the
Collateral Administrator hereby acknowledges and consents to the Issuer's collateral assignment of this Agreement to the Trustee
pursuant to the Indenture and (y) the Issuer may make such a transfer of all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
pursuant to a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into, or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to,
another Person (so long as the same is effected in accordance with the Indenture); and


 


(iii)        the

15.         Conflict
with the Indenture. If this Agreement shall require that any action be taken with respect to any matter and the Indenture shall
require that a different action be taken with respect to such matter, and such actions shall be mutually exclusive, or if this
Agreement should otherwise conflict with the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture in respect thereof shall control.

16.         Limited
Recourse. Each of the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Manager agrees that the payment of all amounts to which it
is entitled pursuant to this Agreement shall be subordinated to the extent set forth in the Indenture. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, all of the obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the
Issuer payable solely as Administrative Expenses from amounts credited to the Expense Account pursuant to Section 10.3(c) of the
Indenture and the Equity Contribution Agreement or, in the case of a Contribution Event, according to the Priority of Payments,
and following the reduction thereof to zero and realization of all other Collateral and application of the proceeds thereof in
accordance with the Indenture, all obligations of and any claims against the Issuer hereunder or arising in connection herewith
shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. Each of the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Manager further
agrees that, except as so contemplated by Section 10.3(c) of the Indenture and the Equity Contribution Agreement or, in the case
of a Contribution Event, according to the Priority of Payments, it will not have any recourse against any other asset of the Issuer
or against any Officer, director, employee, partner, member, shareholder or incorporator of the Issuer or its Affiliates, successors
or assigns for the payment of any amounts payable under this Agreement. It is understood that this Section 16 shall not (i) prevent
recourse to the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral;
or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured by the Indenture
until such Collateral has been realized. It is further understood that this Section 16 shall not limit the right of any Person
to name the Issuer as a party defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the Notes or the Indenture,
so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained)
enforced against any such Person. Each of the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Manager consents to the assignment of
this Agreement as provided in the Granting Clause of the Indenture. This Section 16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


 


17.         Survival.
Notwithstanding any term herein to the contrary, all indemnifications set forth or provided for in this Agreement, together with
Sections 9, 11, 16, 18, 20 and 21 of this Agreement, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal
of the Collateral Administrator.


 


18.         No
Petition in Bankruptcy. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of the Collateral Administrator and the
Collateral Manager agrees not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy or to institute any reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceedings against the Issuer for the nonpayment of the fees or other amounts payable by
the Issuer to the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Manager, as the case may be, under this Agreement until the payment
in full of all Notes issued under the Indenture (and any other debt obligations of the Issuer that have been rated upon issuance
by any rating agency at the request of the Issuer) and the expiration of a period equal to one year and a day or, if longer, the
applicable preference period then in effect and one day, following such payment in full. Nothing in this Section 18 shall
preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Manager from taking any action prior to the expiration
of the aforementioned period in (A) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Issuer or (B) any involuntary
insolvency proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Manager. This Section
18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

19.         Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any party hereto or any circumstance,
is held to be unenforceable, invalid or illegal (in whole or in part) for any reason (in any relevant jurisdiction), the remaining
terms, provisions, covenants and conditions 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, provisions, covenants and conditions
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 or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise
be conferred upon the parties.


 


20.         Waiver
of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE ISSUER, THE COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATOR AND THE COLLATERAL MANAGER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDINGS. Each party hereby (a)
certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the other has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the other would
not, in the event of a Proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver; and (b) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter
into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this paragraph.


 


21.         Jurisdiction.
With respect to any suit, action or proceedings relating to this Agreement or any matter between the parties arising under or in
connection with this Agreement ("Proceedings"), each party irrevocably: (a) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof; and (b) 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 of the parties 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. Subject to applicable law, each party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any Proceeding by the
mailing or delivery of copies of such process as set forth in Section 12 hereof.
