 LOAN FACILITIES 
 Section 2.1 Loans to Purchase Asset Pools. 
 (a) Requests for Borrowing. From time to time during the period from the date hereof to and including the Funding Termination Date, the Borrower may present to the Lender written information describing a
particular Asset Pool (i) with respect to which the Borrower intends to submit an offer to purchase and (ii) requesting that the Lender make a Loan to the Borrower to finance up to seventy percent (70%) of the Total Cost of such Asset
Pool; provided, however, that the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to increase such percentage on a transaction-by-transaction basis. Each such request for a Loan hereunder shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto
(each a “Borrowing Request”), and shall be accompanied by the relevant bid package (including, if available, the proposed Purchase Agreement (or Forward Flow Purchase Agreement, if applicable and available) to be entered into if the
Borrower is the successful bidder for such Asset Pool (or in the case of a Purchase Agreement assigned by the Parent or a Purchase Affiliate, as applicable, in connection with Section 2.1(g), the Purchase Agreement so assigned), all relevant
information known to the Borrower 

  

 9 








 
regarding the Accounts comprising such Asset Pool, the proposed Servicing Fee for collection of such Accounts, projections of the Borrower’s anticipated
recoveries, cash flows and net returns to be obtained upon collection of such Accounts, a projection of the combined interest and Contingent Payments to be paid to the Lender over the expected term of such Asset Pool as contemplated in Treasury
Regulation § 1.1275-4(b), which projection shall constitute the accrual for federal income tax purposes, of the Borrower’s interest deductions and the Lender’s interest income with respect to such Asset Pool (the “Projected
Accrual Schedule”) and such other information as the Lender may reasonably request. The Lender shall accept or reject a Borrowing Request within five (5) Business Days (the “Response Period”), after receipt thereof from the
Borrower. The Lender’s failure to accept a Borrowing Request within the Response Period shall be deemed a rejection of the Borrowing Request by the Lender. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Lender’s decision to
accept or reject a Borrowing Request shall be in the Lender’s sole and absolute discretion and the Lender may decline any Borrowing Request for any reason (or no reason), without notification, justification or explanation, and without regard to
whether or not the Lender has given any prior indication of interest or oral approval with respect to the specified Asset Pool. 
 (b) Acceptance of Borrowing Request. Any acceptance of a Borrowing Request shall be evidenced by the Lender’s execution and return to the Borrower of such Borrowing Request, and shall be subject to all terms and conditions of
this Agreement and in the Borrowing Request so accepted (each an “Accepted Borrowing Request”). An Accepted Borrowing Request delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall constitute the Lender’s commitment, subject to satisfaction of
all applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make a Loan to the Borrower to fund up to seventy percent (70%) of the Total Cost of the Asset Pool, as set forth in such Accepted Borrowing Request; provided, however, that the Lender
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to increase such percentage on a transaction-by-transaction basis and, provided further, that the Lender’s commitment to make a Loan to the Borrower to finance the purchase of an Asset Pool shall
not constitute a revolving commitment and the Borrower shall have no right to reborrow any amounts repaid to the Lender pursuant to an Accepted Borrowing Request. An Accepted Borrowing Request shall expire and shall have no further force or effect
if (i) the Borrower is not the successful bidder for the specified Asset Pool at a purchase price which is not in excess of the anticipated purchase price described in such Borrowing Request, (ii) the Borrower does not consummate its
purchase of such Asset Pool pursuant to the terms and conditions of the related Purchase Agreement and as contemplated in the related Accepted Borrowing Request within thirty (30) calendar days following issuance of the Accepted Borrowing
Request by the Lender (unless (A) such period of time is extended in writing by the Lender or (B) the Asset Pool Seller has unilaterally extended the closing date for purchase of an Asset Pool and the Borrower is unable to contest any such
extension) or (iii) a Default or Event of Default shall occur and shall be continuing under this Agreement. 
 (c)
Additional Provisions Relating to Accounts and other Assets Purchased under Forward Flow Purchase Agreements. The Borrower and the Lender contemplate that certain of the Purchase Agreements will provide for the purchase by the Borrower from
an Asset Pool Seller of Accounts and other Assets on a periodic basis for a specified 

  

 10 








 
period of time (for example, the monthly purchase of Accounts and other Assets during a specified period of time) (each such Purchase Agreement is herein
called a “Forward Flow Purchase Agreement”). All Accounts and other Assets purchased by the Borrower during a period of twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree to in writing) under a Forward Flow Purchase
Agreement shall constitute a single Asset Pool for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Loan made by the Lender with respect to an Asset Pool purchased by the Borrower under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement shall be made
in multiple advances, with each such advance of the Loan occurring on the date that the Borrower makes one of the periodic purchases of the Accounts and other Assets under such Forward Flow Purchase Agreement; provided, that, advances shall be made
no more often than once per month for any Asset Pool. In addition to the items required by Section 2.1(a), a Borrowing Request related to a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement shall contain the Borrower’s good faith estimate of the total
amount of all Accounts and other Assets to be purchased under the Forward Flow Purchase Agreement for a period not to exceed twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree to in writing) (regardless of the duration of the
purchasing period under the Forward Flow Purchase Agreement) and the Borrower’s good faith estimate of the Total Cost of all Accounts and other Assets to be purchased under the Forward Flow Purchase Agreement for a period not to exceed twelve
(12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree to in writing) (regardless of the duration of the purchasing period under the Forward Flow Purchase Agreement). The Lender shall accept or reject a Borrowing Request related to a
period of twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree to in writing) under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(a) and (b); provided, however, an Accepted Borrowing
Request related to a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement shall only constitute the Lender’s commitment to make a Loan to fund up to seventy percent (70%) of the Total Cost of the Asset Pool being purchased under such Forward Flow Purchase
Agreement (provided, however, that the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to increase such percentages on a transaction-by-transaction basis), in either case for such period of twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as
the Lender shall agree to in writing) as estimated by the Borrower in the Accepted Borrowing Request related to such Forward Flow Purchase Agreement. In the event that the Borrower determines that the actual Total Cost of the Asset Pool being
purchased under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement during such period of twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree to in writing) will exceed the estimated Total Cost of the Asset Pool as specified in the Accepted
Borrowing Request or if the Borrower wishes the Lender to continue financing its purchase of Accounts and other Assets after the expiration of the currently approved period of twelve (12) months (or such shorter period as the Lender shall agree
to in writing), the Borrower shall submit to the Lender a supplemental Borrowing Request, and the Lender may accept or reject such supplemental Borrowing Request in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.1(a) and (b). Upon the Lender’s
rejection of such supplemental Borrowing Request, the Lender shall have no obligation to provide any funding to the Borrower in excess of that agreed to in any Accepted Borrowing Request in connection with the applicable Forward Flow Purchase
Agreement and the Borrower shall be permitted to seek financing from a third party in connection with the amount of accounts and assets to be purchased under 
  

 11 








 
such Forward Flow Purchase Agreement which exceed that set forth in any Accepted Borrowing Request in connection therewith and such excess shall not be
considered an Asset or Asset Pool subject to this Agreement. 
 (d) General Funding Procedures. The Borrower shall
provide the Lender with not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the scheduled closing date for purchase of an Asset Pool described in an Accepted Borrowing Request and shall request funding of the related Loan on such date
(each a “Borrowing Date”). On the Business Day immediately preceding a Borrowing Date, the Borrower shall transfer to the Lender the Borrower’s Asset Pool Equity Contribution for the related Asset Pool, net of all Purchase Expenses
paid or incurred by the Borrower. Upon receipt by the Lender of such funds from the Borrower and upon satisfaction of all applicable conditions set forth in Article IV and elsewhere in this Agreement, the Lender shall make the Loan to the Borrower
as specified in the related Accepted Borrowing Request by transferring the amount of the Loan, together with that portion of the Borrower’s Asset Pool Equity Contribution received by the Lender, to the Asset Pool Seller (or in whole or in part
to the Parent or a Purchase Affiliate, as applicable, in connection with an assignment under Section 2.1(g), but only as specified in an Accepted Borrowing Request) in purchase of the related Asset Pool on (or immediately prior to) the closing
date for purchase of such Asset Pool. 
 (e) Special Funding Procedures in connection with Forward Flow Purchase
Agreements. In connection with a periodic purchase of a portion of an Asset Pool under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall provide the Lender with not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice of the Borrowing
Date for the purchase of such portion of an Asset Pool under such Forward Flow Purchase Agreement, the Total Cost of such portion of the Asset Pool to be purchased on the Borrowing Date and the amount of the advance of the Loan which the Borrower
requests the Lender to fund on the Borrowing Date in connection with such portion of the Asset Pool to be purchased on the Borrowing Date. On the Business Day immediately preceding a Borrowing Date for the purchase of a portion of an Asset Pool
under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement, the Borrower shall transfer to the Lender the Borrower’s Asset Pool Equity Contribution for such portion of the Asset Pool to be purchased on such Borrowing Date net of all Purchase Expenses paid or
incurred by the Borrower with respect to such portion of the Asset Pool to be purchased on such Borrowing Date. Upon receipt by the Lender of such funds from the Borrower and upon satisfaction of all applicable conditions set forth in Article IV and
elsewhere in this Agreement, the Lender shall make the applicable advance of the Loan to the Borrower by transferring the amount of such advance of the Loan, together with that portion of the Borrower’s Asset Pool Equity contribution received
by the Lender, to the Asset Pool Seller (or in whole or in part to the Parent or a Purchase Affiliate, as applicable, in connection with an assignment under Section 2.1(g), but only as specified in an Accepted Borrowing Request) in purchase of
that portion of the related Asset Pool on (or immediately prior to) the closing date for the purchase of such portion of such Asset Pool. 
 (f) Combination of Asset Pools upon Mutual Written Consent of Borrower and Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon 

  

 12 








 
the mutual written consent of the Borrower and the Lender, two (2) or more Asset Pools may be combined into a single Asset Pool subject to such terms
and conditions as the Borrower and the Lender shall specify in writing. 
 (g) Asset Pools Purchased by Borrower From
Parent or Purchase Affiliate. The Borrower may from time to time purchase an Asset Pool from the Parent or a Purchase Affiliate if: (i) the Parent or Purchase Affiliate, as applicable, has complied with the applicable provisions therefor
contained in the Exclusivity Agreement, (ii) the Borrower has submitted a Borrowing Request to the Lender in connection therewith in accordance with this Section 2.1, which Borrowing Request shall detail the assignment of a Purchase
Agreement and/or other security documents to the Borrower in connection with the Parent’s or Purchase Affiliate’s, as applicable, purchase of the accounts or other assets constituting such Asset Pool from another Person (who shall not be
an Affiliated Party) and such other information as the Lender shall require, and (iii) such Borrowing Request has been accepted by the Lender in accordance with this Section 2.1. 
 Section 2.2 Obligation to Repay Loans; Issuance of Notes. Each Loan made by the Lender with respect to an Asset Pool under Section 2.1
shall be evidenced by a separate promissory note of the Borrower payable to the order of the Lender in the amount determined in accordance with the related Accepted Borrowing Request, dated as of the Borrowing Date and otherwise in substantially the
form of Exhibit B-1 (each a “Note”). With respect to a Loan made by the Lender to the Borrower in connection with an Asset Pool purchased under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement, the initial advance of such Loan shall be evidenced by a
Note, dated as of the Borrowing Date for such initial advance, in the amount of such initial advance and otherwise in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1. The second and each subsequent advance of a Loan made in connection with an Asset Pool
purchased under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement shall be evidenced by a replacement Note, dated as of the Borrowing Date for such second or subsequent advance, as applicable, in the aggregate amount of all advances made of the Loan (without
reflecting any repayments of such Loan) and otherwise in substantially the form of Exhibit B-2. Each such replacement Note issued in connection with a Loan made in connection with an Asset Pool purchased under a Forward Flow Purchase Agreement
shall be issued in replacement of and substitution for, but not in payment of, the previous Note related to such Loan. Upon the Lender’s receipt of a written request to return to the Borrower a replaced note following the Borrower’s
execution and delivery to the Lender of a replacement Note acceptable to the Lender, the Lender shall return the replaced Note to the Borrower marked “Replaced by Substitution Note”. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Note shall
bear interest, be payable and be secured as provided therein and herein. 
 Section 2.3 Purchase of Asset Pools Financed by
Distressed Loans. If, sixty (60) days prior to any Loan Maturity Date (including any Extended Maturity Date, as defined below), the Borrower anticipates that the outstanding loan balance of a Loan (the “Distressed Loan”) will not
be paid off at the applicable Loan Maturity Date, then the Borrower may send a notice (“Action Notice”) to the Lender providing that an Affiliated Party has offered to purchase from the Borrower the Asset Pool financed by the Distressed
Loan (the “Distressed Loan Asset Pool”). Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the Action Notice, the Lender shall either (i) decline the offer described in the Action Notice and extend the Loan Maturity Date for the
Distressed Loan for one (1) year (such new date, the “Extended Maturity Date”) or (ii) accept the offer 

  

 13 








 
described in the Action Notice. If the Lender does not respond to the Action Notice within the required time the Action Notice will be deemed rejected and
the Loan Maturity Date for the Distressed Loan shall be extended for one (1) year. Upon the sale of the Distressed Loan Asset Pool described in the Action Notice, the Borrower will remit proceeds of the sale to the Lender to the extent
necessary to pay the outstanding principal balance of the Distressed Loan plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 
 Section 2.4
Interest on Loans. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan with respect to an Asset Pool for the period commencing on the Borrowing Date for such Loan and continuing thereafter until the Loan is
paid in full, in accordance with the following: 
 (a) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the outstanding
principal balance of each Loan shall bear interest at an annual rate at all times equal to the Floating Rate applicable to such Loan. 
 (b) From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default and continuing thereafter until such Event of Default shall be remedied to the written satisfaction of the Lender, the outstanding principal balance of each
Loan shall bear interest at an annual rate at all times equal to the sum of (i) the Floating Rate applicable to such Loan and (ii) two percent (2%) (the “Default Rate”). 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, all agreements with respect to
interest in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents between the Borrower and the Lender are hereby limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the total liability for payments in the nature of interest exceed the applicable
limits imposed by any applicable usury laws. If any payments in the nature of interest made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are held to be in excess of the limits imposed by any applicable usury laws, it is agreed that any such
amount held to be in excess shall be considered payment of principal in respect of the applicable Loan, and the aggregate indebtedness under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be reduced by such amount so that the total liability for
payments in the nature of interest shall not exceed the applicable limits imposed by any applicable usury laws, in compliance with the desires of the Borrower and the Lender. 
 Section 2.5 Computation of Interest. Interest accruing on each Loan, on each Asset Pool Equity Contribution and on each Affiliate
Subordinated Loan, as applicable, shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of each Loan, on each Asset Pool Equity
Contribution and on each Affiliate Subordinated Loan, as applicable, on a daily basis. Interest accrued on each Loan, on each Asset Pool Equity Contribution and on each Affiliate Subordinated Loan shall be capitalized on each Distribution Date if
funds are not available for payment thereof on such Distribution Date. 
 Section 2.6 Payment of Principal and Interest on Loans.
All interest on a Loan which has accrued, but is unpaid as of the day preceding a Distribution Date for a related Asset Pool, 

  

 14 








 
shall be due and payable on such Distribution Date, but only to the extent available in accordance with Section 2.9. If not paid in full on a
Distribution Date, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be capitalized as of such date in accordance with Section 2.5. Principal of each Loan shall be finally due and payable on the Loan Maturity Date for such Loan, as specified in the Note
evidencing payment of such Loan. In addition, each Loan shall be subject to mandatory prepayment on each Distribution Date for the related Asset Pool in an amount equal to the Asset Pool Proceeds available for such prepayment on such date, as
provided in Section 2.9. The Borrower may prepay any Loan, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty; provided, however, that (i) no such prepayment shall terminate or satisfy the Borrower’s
obligation to pay Contingent Payments with respect to the related Asset Pool for any such Loan, and (ii) any such prepayment can only be made from Asset Pool Proceeds received with respect to the Asset Pool for such Loan and not with any other
proceeds or funds from any other source, unless otherwise approved in writing by the Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.6, the Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Contingent Payments with
respect to any Asset Pool financed by a Distressed Loan and purchased pursuant to Section 2.3. 
 Section 2.7 Contingent
Payments. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a Contingent Payment with respect to each Asset Pool, payable on each Distribution Date for such Asset Pool in an amount equal to that portion of the Asset Pool Proceeds available for payment
thereof as provided in Section 2.9(j). Subject to Sections 2.3 and 2.6, payment in full of any Loan made in respect of an Asset Pool shall in no way affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay to the Lender the Contingent Payments with respect
to an Asset Pool as provided herein. The Borrower and the Lender agree that all Contingent Payments with respect to an Asset Pool will be treated as interest for United States federal income tax purposes and that the Borrower’s interest
deductions and the Lender’s interest income with respect thereto shall accrue in accordance with the Projected Accrual Schedule for such Asset Pool delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1(a) and accepted by the Lender pursuant to
Section 2.1, as required and determined in accordance with the non-contingent bond method described in Treasury Regulation 1.1275-4(b). 
 Section 2.8 Collection and Deposit of Asset Pool Proceeds. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10, each Loan shall be paid out of Asset Pool Proceeds collected with respect to the related Asset Pool. All Asset Pool
Proceeds received by the Servicer or the Borrower will be deposited not later than the next Business Day following receipt thereof, to a collection account maintained by the Servicer, and not later than two (2) Business Days thereafter (or
earlier if checks in such collection account clear earlier), shall be transferred to a separate Collateral Account for the Asset Pools opened and maintained by the Collateral Agent, in the name of the Lender, pursuant to the Collateral Account
Agreement (the “Collateral Account”). Except for the days on which Asset Pool Proceeds are on deposit in the Servicer’s collection account, neither the Servicer nor the Borrower shall commingle any Asset Pool Proceeds collected with
respect to the Asset Pools with any moneys or other funds which are not Asset Pool Proceeds. The Collateral Account shall be an interest bearing account and all interest earned on amounts on deposit therein shall constitute, and be treated as, Asset
Pool Proceeds collected with respect to the Asset Pools. All Asset Pool Proceeds shall be held in the Collateral Account until the next occurring Distribution Date. Not later than 3:00 p.m., Minneapolis, Minnesota time, on the Business Day preceding
each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall deliver 

  

 15 








 
to the Lender a report for the preceding Collection Period setting forth, by Asset Pool, the Asset Pool Proceeds, Servicing Fees, outstanding balances of
Loans and other relevant information to determine the use and application of the Asset Pool Proceeds deposited to the Collateral Account during the Collection Period ending on the Sunday immediately preceding such Distribution Date (each, a
“Distribution Report”) and the Lender will make distributions in accordance with Section 2.9 on each Distribution Date. In no event shall any Asset Pool Proceeds be withdrawn from the Collateral Account without the prior written
consent of the Lender as to each such withdrawal or transfer. 
 Section 2.9 Distribution of Asset Pool Proceeds. Upon delivery
to the Collateral Agent of the Lender’s written authorization for distributions to be made from the Collateral Account as contemplated in Section 2.8, Asset Pool Proceeds on deposit in the Collateral Account with respect to an Asset Pool
shall be distributed on the next succeeding Distribution Date for such Asset Pool, in accordance with the following: 
 (a)
first, in connection with all Asset Pool acquisitions, to the Lender or the Borrower, an amount equal to all unpaid Loan Costs and Purchase Expenses paid or incurred by the Lender or the Borrower with respect to the making or collection of a Loan
secured by such Asset Pool, except for the expenses of the Borrower in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents; 
 (b) second, to the Collateral Agent, an amount equal to all fees and expenses due and owing to the Collateral Agent with respect to such Asset Pool; 
 (c) third, to the Servicer, an amount equal to the Servicing Fee, if any, payable to the Servicer with respect to such Asset Pool
Proceeds; 
 (d) fourth, to the Lender, an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on the related Loan for such Asset
Pool; 
 (e) fifth, to the Servicer, an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid Deferred Servicing Fees, as defined in the
Servicing Agreement, but only to the extent no Asset Pool Shortfall then exists with respect to such Asset Pool; 
 (f) sixth,
to the Lender, an amount equal to the outstanding principal of the related Loan for such Asset Pool, until such Loan shall have been paid in full; 
 (g) seventh, to the Lender, an amount equal to any Asset Pool Shortfall Amount then outstanding, for application to payment of such Asset Pool Shortfall Amount; 
 (h) eighth, to the Borrower, an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on (i) the Borrower’s Asset Pool Equity
Contribution with respect to such Asset Pool and (ii) any Affiliate Subordinated Loan, which interest shall be at the Floating Rate and shall be calculated in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof; 
 (i) ninth, to the Borrower, an amount equal to (i) the Asset Pool Equity Contribution made by the Borrower with respect to such Asset
Pool and (ii) the principal 

  

 16 








 
amount of any Affiliate Subordinated Loan, until such Asset Pool Equity Contribution and all such Affiliate Subordinated Loans shall have been repaid in
full; 
 (j) tenth, to the Lender, its Contingent Payment for such Asset Pool; and 
 (k) eleventh, to the Borrower, the remainder of the Asset Pool Proceeds for such Asset Pool. 
 Section 2.10 Asset Pool Shortfalls. If, (a)(i) as of any date on or after six (6) months following the Borrowing Date with respect to an
Asset Pool acquired by means of a Loan, the Asset Pool Proceeds received through such date with respect to such Asset Pool are less than eighty percent (80%) of the projected Asset Pool Proceeds to be received through such date (as set forth in
the bid package submitted by the Borrower as part of the Borrowing Request for such Asset Pool), and the Lender determines that, in its reasonable judgment, the remaining Asset Pool Proceeds projected to be received and applied to the related Loan
will be insufficient to repay the related Loan and all accrued interest thereon at the applicable Loan Maturity Date, or (ii) as of any date, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) in connection with any Affiliated Party
Credit Agreement (i) as of any date on or after six (6) months following the Borrowing Date under (and as defined in) such Affiliated Party Credit Agreement with respect to an Affiliated Party Asset Pool financed by means of an Affiliated
Party Loan, the Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined therein) received through such date with respect to such Affiliated Party Asset Pool are less than eighty percent (80%) of the projected Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined therein) to be received
through such date (as set forth in the bid package submitted by the applicable Affiliated Party as a part of the Borrowing Request under (and as defined in) such Affiliated Party Credit Agreement for such Affiliated Party Asset Pool) and the Lender
determines that, in its reasonable judgment, the remaining Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined therein) projected to be received and applied to such Affiliated Party Loan will be insufficient to repay such Affiliated Party Loan and all accrued interest
thereon on the applicable Loan Maturity Date (as defined therein) or (ii) as of any date, an Event of Default under (and as defined in) such Affiliated Party Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, or (c) under the LLC Agreement,
as of any date on or after the Start-Up Date (as defined in the LLC Agreement), the aggregate of all Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined in the LLC Agreement) received by the CVI Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement) pursuant to Section 4.4 of
the LLC Agreement with respect to such Asset Pool is less than eighty percent (80%) of the projected Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined in the LLC Agreement) forecasted (at the time of funding the Capital Contribution (as defined in the LLC
Agreement) to be received by the CVI Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement) through the date of determination and the CVI Member (as defined in the LLC Agreement) determines that, in its reasonable judgment, the remaining Net Asset Pool Proceeds
(as defined in the LLC Agreement) projected to be received will be insufficient to repay the related Capital Contribution (as defined in the LLC Agreement) and the Initial Return (as defined in the LLC Agreement) thereon, then the amount of such
estimated deficiency (herein, the “Asset Pool Shortfall Amount”) shall be paid: 
 (a) first, from Asset Pool
Proceeds (as defined herein) collected with respect to other Asset Pools financed with Loans as provided in Section 2.9(g) of this Agreement; 
  

 17 








 (b) second, from Asset Pool Proceeds (as defined in any Affiliated Party Credit
Agreement) collected with respect to any Affiliated Party Asset Pool financed by means of an Affiliated Party Credit Agreement as provided in Section 2.9(g) thereof (or such equivalent section), which amounts so paid shall constitute a
subordinated loan from the applicable Affiliated Party to the Borrower (each, an “Affiliate Subordinated Loan”) and shall bear interest (accruing in accordance with Section 2.5 only from the date of such payment) and be repaid only as
provided in Section 2.9(i) hereof; and 
 (c) third, from the Borrower’s own funds (and not from funds borrowed from
a CarVal Affiliate) and any amount so paid shall be treated hereunder as an Asset Pool Equity Contribution on behalf of the Borrower for the Asset Pool for which such payment was made, which amounts so paid shall bear interest (accruing in
accordance with Section 2.5 only from the date of such payment) and be repaid only as provided in Section 2.9(i) hereof.; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 2.10(c) only, Asset Pool Proceeds shall be deemed to
include any of the Borrower’s own funds paid pursuant to this Section 2.10(c). 
 Section 2.11 Transfer or Assignment of
Loans. Each Note evidencing a Loan shall contain the following provisions restricting the transferability of such Note and the Lender’s rights to receive payment thereunder: “This Note shall not be transferred without providing written
notice of the transfer and the identity of the transferee to the issuer, which notice shall be in the form of a true and correct copy of the original endorsement of this Note provided to the issuer in accordance with the notice provisions of this
Agreement. Any purported transfer occurring without providing written notice to the issuer in accordance with the previous sentence shall be null and void.” In the event that a Note is issued that does not contain this language, the provisions
of this Section 2.11 shall be deemed to govern and apply to such Note as if such language were contained therein. 
 Section 2.12
Agreement Regarding Collateral Account. Notwithstanding references in this Agreement to a “Collateral Agent” and a “Collateral Account Agreement,” no such Collateral Account Agreement shall be executed with a Collateral
Agent for delivery as of this date. Instead, the Lender shall open a deposit account (the “Lender Deposit Account”) as specified in writing from time to time by the Lender to the Borrower, which shall be an account owned solely and
exclusively by the Lender and in which neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any interest whatsoever. The Lender shall have and retain all rights over and ownership with respect to the Lender Deposit Account. Such account so opened by the
Lender shall constitute the “Collateral Account” as described in this Agreement. Each and every reference to the Collateral Agent taking action with respect to funds on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be deemed a reference to the
Lender taking action with respect to the Lender Deposit Account until such time, if ever, as the Borrower, the Servicer, the Lender and a Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver a Collateral Account Agreement, whereupon the Collateral Account as
therein described shall constitute the Collateral Account referenced and described in this Agreement. So long as the Lender Deposit Account shall be treated as the Collateral Account for purposes of this Agreement, the Lender agrees that it will be
obligated to distribute funds on deposit therein upon compliance by the Borrower with all applicable terms and conditions for distribution described in Section 2.8 of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE III 
 COLLATERAL FOR LOANS; 
 CUSTODY, SERVICING AND COLLECTIONS 
 Section 3.1 Pledge of Asset Pool Collateral. To secure the due and prompt payment of each Loan, together with all interest thereon and
Contingent Payments payable in connection therewith, and all other Obligations hereunder, the Borrower shall grant to the Lender a first and prior security interest in, lien on and pledge of all assets of the Borrower (subject only to Permitted
Liens which shall be subject and subordinate), including all right, title, claim and interest of the Borrower in and to all Assets of or related to each and every Asset Pool, of any kind, nature or description, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, wherever located, howsoever arising or created and whether now existing or hereafter arising, including without limitation each and every Account and any and all liens, claims and property securing payment of the indebtedness evidenced by
such Account (if any), and all property realized, collected or obtained in connection with or as a result of collections made on account of any Account, and any and all Asset Pool Proceeds paid or received with respect to any Asset Pool, whether
deposited to or held in the Collateral Account or otherwise, and all rights of the Borrower under each and every Purchase Agreement (or Forward Flow Purchase Agreement) related to an Asset Pool, together with such additional property of the Borrower
as is set forth and described in the Security Agreement, as the same may be amended and supplemented from time to time by the Borrower as additional Asset Pools are purchased by the Borrower (herein the “Loan Collateral”). 
 Section 3.2 Perfection of Security Interests in Personal Property Collateral. The Borrower agrees to deliver to the Lender (or its designated
custodial agent), at any time upon the Lender’s request, each original Account file of or relating to any Account and each promissory note, chattel paper, installment sales agreement or other instrument with respect to which perfection may be
obtained by possession, and shall authorize or execute such financing statements, together with any and all other instruments, assignments or documents and take such other actions as may be required, to perfect and to continue the perfection of the

 Section 3.3 Servicing of Asset Pools. The Borrower, the Servicer and
the Lender shall enter into a Servicing Agreement, in form and content acceptable to the Lender, to provide for the servicing and collection of all Assets (the “Servicing Agreement”). Immediately upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default

to the Borrower and the Lender. 
 Section 3.4 Authority to Settle or Sell Loan Collateral. The Borrower shall be authorized to
finally compromise, settle, sell, liquidate, collect or write-down the balance of, any Asset in its discretion; provided, however, that in no event will any such compromise, settlement, sale, liquidation, collection or write-down reduce the
remaining unpaid principal balance thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to an aggregate amount less than three hundred percent (300%) of the allocated purchase price paid by the Borrower to acquire such Asset, without
first obtaining the prior consent of the Lender. The Borrower shall not, without 

  

 19 








 
first obtaining the Lender’s prior written consent, agree to any sale, assignment or other bulk transfer of Accounts (whether in one or more Asset
Pools). In the event the Lender consents to a bulk transfer of Accounts, the Servicer will be paid a sales fee not to exceed the lesser of (a) the actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Servicer (and approved by the Lender) in connection
with such bulk sale and (b) five percent (5%) of the net proceeds realized upon such bulk sale, in lieu of the applicable Servicing Fee, unless the Lender and the Borrower shall otherwise agree in writing. 
 Section 3.5 Exchange of Assets with Asset Pool Sellers. In the event that the Borrower shall exchange or return Assets with any Asset Pool
Seller, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender of such exchange or return and shall provide such information with respect to such exchange or return as Lender shall reasonably require. The Servicer shall not be entitled to any Servicing Fee
with respect to any such exchange or return.

 Section 9.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or

invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof. If the invalidity of any part, provision,
representation or warranty of this Agreement shall deprive any party of the economic benefit intended to be conferred by this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to develop a structure the economic effect of which is as nearly as

Asset Pool Proceeds for any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with the enforcement by the Lender of any of the rights or remedies available to the Lender hereunder or under any of the Loan

reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the making of any Loans (except for income or franchise taxes based on the Lender’s income) and (b) any and all liabilities, losses, damages, penalties,
judgments, suits, claims, costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitations, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceedings, whether or
not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto, which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee, in any manner relating to or arising out of or in connection with, the making of any Loans or entering into this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or the collection of Assets, excepting, however, from the foregoing any such liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, suits, claims, costs and
expenses resulting from collection actions undertaken by the Lender, or by a replacement servicer appointed by the Lender, or the unlawful conduct, willful misconduct or gross 

  

 34 








 
negligence of an Indemnitee. If any investigative, judicial or administrative proceeding arising from any of the foregoing is brought against any Indemnitee,
upon request of such Indemnitee, the Borrower, or counsel designated by the Borrower and satisfactory to the Indemnitee, will resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding to the extent and in the manner directed by the Indemnitee, at the
Borrower’s sole cost and expense. Each Indemnitee will use its best efforts to cooperate in the defense of any such action, suit or proceeding. If the foregoing undertaking to indemnify, defend and hold harmless may be held to be unenforceable
because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower shall nevertheless make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities contemplated hereby which is permissible under applicable law. The
obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.6 shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.7 Execution in
Counterparts. This Agreement and other Loan Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute
but one and the same instrument. 
 Section 9.8 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) Governing Law. Except as otherwise provided in the Security Agreement, the Loan Documents shall be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of Minnesota. 
 (b) Jurisdiction. The Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to
the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any federal court sitting in Minneapolis or St. Paul, Minnesota, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower hereby irrevocably
agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such federal court. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the
maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process, by
certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Borrower at its addresses specified in Section 9.4 above. The Borrower agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Section 9.8(b) shall affect the right of either party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of either party to bring any
action or proceeding against the other party or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions. 
 (c) WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY INSTRUMENT OR DOCUMENT DELIVERED THEREUNDER.

 Section 9.9 Integration. This Agreement comprises the final and complete integration of all
prior expressions by the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter, superseding all prior oral or written understandings.

 Section 9.10 Agreement Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon delivery of fully executed counterparts
hereof to each of the parties hereto. 
 Section 9.11 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the sections and subsections of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.12 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not transfer or assign any or all of its rights or obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender. The Lender may sell, transfer, assign and convey any Note or any portion thereof and any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or with respect to any Loan or Note,
including without limitation the right to sell undivided participating interests in any Loan or Note (provided that such sales of participating interests shall not provide for a transfer or change of decision-making control with respect to the
administration and enforcement of this Agreement except in the event of a default by the Lender under the related participation interest sale agreement), to any CarVal Affiliate without any prior notice to or consent of the Borrower. So long as no
default has occurred pursuant to the Exclusivity Agreement, the Lender shall not make any such assignment to any Person who is not a CarVal Affiliate without the prior written consent of the Borrower. Each Note shall contain the following provision
regarding preconditions to the effectiveness of any such sale, transfer or assignment by the Lender: “This Note shall not be transferred without providing written notice of the transfer and the identity of the transferee to the issuer, which
notice shall be in the form of a true and correct copy of the original endorsement of this Note provided to the issuer in accordance with the notice provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any purported transfer occurring without providing written

 Section 9.14 Judicial Interpretation. Should any provision of this Agreement require judicial interpretation, it is agreed that a court interpreting or construing the same shall not apply a presumption that the terms hereof
shall be more strictly construed against any person by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the person who itself or through its agent prepared the same, it being agreed that all parties hereto
have participated in the preparation of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.15 Use of Lender’s Name. The Borrower hereby agrees
that neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall refer to or use the name “CVI GVF Finco, LLC,” “CVI,” 

  

 36 








 
“CarVal Investors,” or “CarVal”, or any such name in any manner in any collection or enforcement activities with respect to any Asset or

absolute discretion. 
 Section 9.16 Confidentiality of Information. Each of the Lender and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that
it will use the Confidential Information (defined below) solely for the purposes of evaluating, administering and enforcing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and making any necessary business judgments with respect thereto and, in
particular, determining whether or not to make or obtain, as applicable, a Loan with respect to an Asset Pool. In addition, neither the Lender nor the Borrower will disclose any Confidential Information without the prior consent of the other, other
than to the directors, employees, auditors, counsel or affiliates of the Lender and the Borrower, as applicable, each of whom shall be informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information; provided, however, that the Lender and the

such party or (iv) in the event any such party is legally compelled (by interrogatories, requests for information or copies, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any such Confidential Information. For purposes of
this Section 9.16, “Confidential Information” shall include: (a) all information regarding one or more Asset Pools in connection with a Borrowing Request (including, but not limited to the Borrower’s, any Excluded
Party’s or any Affiliated Party’s pricing, bidding, collections, returns and profitability) (the “Borrower Confidential Information”), and (b) all information pertaining to the relationship between the Borrower and the
Lender evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (the “Lender Confidential Information”). This Section 9.16 shall be inoperative as to (A) the Borrower, with respect to the Borrower Confidential Information,
(B) the Lender, with respect to the Lender Confidential Information, and (C) those portions of the Confidential Information which are or become generally available to the public, the Lender or the Borrower on a non-confidential basis from
a source other than the other party or an affiliate of the other party or were known to the Lender or the Borrower on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure by the other party. 
 Section 9.17 Full Recourse Obligations; Non-Recourse as to Certain Parties. All Obligations are full recourse obligations of the Borrower and
as to all Assets. No Affiliated Party or Excluded Party (other than the Borrower and, as applicable, the Servicer) shall have liability to the Lender under this Agreement or otherwise for performance of the Obligations or in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall relieve any Affiliated Party or any Excluded Party from liability to the Lender under the Exclusivity Agreement or for any misapplication or misappropriation of

 Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise herein defined shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement. On

includes consumer finance receivables and/or other delinquent or deficiency consumer obligations (the “Assets”) from
                                        
(the “Asset Pool Seller”) for a purchase price not to exceed $             (the “Purchase Price”), such purchase to be effected pursuant to the terms and
conditions of a purchase agreement which, if available, is in substantially the form attached hereto as Annex I (the “Purchase Agreement”). We anticipate that the Total Cost of the Asset Pool will be
$            . 
 Pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement, we
hereby request that you make a Loan in the amount of $            , subject to interest at the applicable Floating Rate, which amount is
[             percent (    %)] of the Total Cost of the Asset Pool. Our Asset Pool Equity Contribution with respect to the Asset Pool will be
$            , which is [             percent (    %)] of the Total Cost of the
Asset Pool. 
 To induce you to make the Loans requested above, we hereby represent and warrant to you the following: 
 (a) No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or will result from the making of this Borrowing Request or the transactions
contemplated hereby; 
 (b) The conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 of the Credit Agreement are fully satisfied
as of the date of the Borrowing Request; and 
 (c) The representations, warranties and covenants of the undersigned set forth
in Article V and Section 4.3 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct as of the date of the Borrowing Request. 
  

 A-11 








 Pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement, included with this Borrowing Request is the following pertinent
information and documentation relating to the Asset Pool: 
 (a) Attached hereto as Annex II is the related bid package as
provided by the Asset Pool Seller; and 
 (b) Attached hereto as Annex III is all relevant additional information regarding
the Assets, including without limitation, the aggregate number of Accounts included in the Asset Pool, projections of Contingent Payments and projections of Asset Pool Proceeds, Purchase Expenses incurred to date, an estimate of future Purchase
Expenses, a budget for the anticipated costs of collection to be incurred in collecting the Assets and all related cash flow models in sufficient detail to accurately describe the anticipated internal rate of return for the Assets, a projected
payment schedule over the expected term of the Asset Pool as contemplated in Treasury Regulation § 1.12175-4(b) and other information material to our economic assumptions with respect to the Assets. 
 We will use our best efforts to promptly supply such additional pertinent information and documentation as you may request. 
 In accordance with Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement, your failure to accept this Borrowing Request within the Response Period shall be deemed a
rejection of this Borrowing Request by you.
