		4.	Margin Maintenance






		(a)	If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject
to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Buyer is less than the aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount for
all such Transactions (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller in such Transactions, at
Seller’s option, to transfer to Buyer cash or additional Securities reasonably acceptable to Buyer (“Additional Purchased
Securities”), so that the cash and aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, including any such Additional Purchased
Securities, will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount (decreased by the amount of any Margin Deficit
as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Buyer is acting as Seller).



 


		(b)	If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject
to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Seller exceeds the aggregate Seller’s Margin Amount for all
such Transactions at such time (a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer in such Transactions,
at Buyer’s option, to transfer cash or Purchased Securities to Seller, so that the aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities,
after deduction of any such cash or any Purchased Securities so transferred, will thereupon not exceed such aggregate Seller’s
Margin Amount (increased by the amount of any Margin Excess as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Seller
is acting as Buyer).



 


		(c)	If any notice is given by Buyer or Seller under subparagraph (a) or (b)
of this Paragraph at or before the Margin Notice Deadline on any business day, the party receiving such notice shall transfer cash
or Additional Purchased Securities as provided in such subparagraph no later than the close of business in the relevant market
on such day. If any such notice is given after the Margin Notice Deadline, the party receiving such notice shall transfer such
cash or Securities no later than the close of business in the relevant market on the next business day following such notice.



 


		(d)	Any cash transferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be attributed to such
Transactions as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller.



 


		(e)	Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder,
that the respective rights of Buyer or Seller (or both) under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph may be exercised only
where a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess, as the case may be, exceeds a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the
Repurchase Prices for such Transactions (which amount or percentage shall be agreed to by Buyer and Seller prior to entering into
any such Transactions).



 


		(f)	Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder,
that the respective rights of Buyer and Seller under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph to require the elimination of
a Margin Deficit or a Margin Excess, as the case may be, may be exercised whenever such a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess exists
with respect to any single Transaction hereunder (calculated without regard to any other Transaction outstanding under this Agreement).

		5.	Income Payments






Seller shall be entitled to
receive an amount equal to all Income paid or distributed on or in respect of the Securities that is not otherwise received by
Seller, to the full extent it would be so entitled if the Securities had not been sold to Buyer. Buyer shall, as the parties may
agree with respect to any Transaction (or, in the absence of any such agreement, as Buyer shall reasonably determine in its discretion),
on the date such Income is paid or distributed either (i) transfer to or credit to the account of Seller such Income with respect
to any Purchased Securities subject to such Transaction or (ii) with respect to Income paid in cash, apply the Income payment or
payments to reduce the amount, if any, to be transferred to Buyer by Seller upon termination of such Transaction. Buyer shall not
be obligated to take any action pursuant to the preceding sentence (A) to the extent that such action would result in the creation
of a Margin Deficit, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith Seller transfers to Buyer cash or Additional Purchased Securities
sufficient to eliminate such Margin Deficit, or (B) if an Event of Default with respect to Seller has occurred and is then continuing
at the time such Income is paid or distributed.


 


		6.	Security Interest






Although the parties intend
that all Transactions hereunder be sales and purchases and not loans, in the event any such Transactions are deemed to be loans,
Seller shall be deemed to have pledged to Buyer as security for the performance by Seller of its obligations under each such Transaction,
and shall be deemed to have granted to Buyer a security interest in, all of the Purchased Securities with respect to all Transactions
hereunder and all Income thereon and other proceeds thereof.


 


		7.	Payment and Transfer






Unless otherwise mutually agreed,
all transfers of funds hereunder shall be in immediately available funds. All Securities transferred by one party hereto to the
other party (i) shall be in suitable form for transfer or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment
in blank and such other documentation as the party receiving possession may reasonably request, (ii) shall be transferred on the
book-entry system of a Federal Reserve Bank, or (iii) shall be transferred by any other method mutually acceptable to Seller and
Buyer.


 


		8.	Segregation of Purchased Securities






To the extent required by applicable
law, all Purchased Securities in the possession of Seller shall be segregated from other securities in its possession and shall
be identified as subject to this Agreement. Segregation may be accomplished by appropriate identification on the books and records
of the holder, including a financial or securities intermediary or a clearing corporation. All of Seller’s interest in the Purchased
Securities shall pass to Buyer on the Purchase Date and, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Seller, nothing in this Agreement
shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Securities or otherwise selling, transferring,
pledging or hypothecating the Purchased Securities, but no such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer
Purchased Securities to Seller pursuant to Paragraph 3, 4 or 11 hereof, or of Buyer’s obligation to credit or pay Income to, or
apply Income to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof.

        Required Disclosure
for Transactions in Which the Seller Retains Custody of the Purchased Securities 

        Seller is not permitted to substitute
        other securities for those subject to this Agreement and therefore must keep Buyer’s securities segregated at all times unless
        in this Agreement Buyer grants Seller the right to substitute other securities. If Buyer grants the right to substitute, this means
        that Buyer’s securities will likely be commingled with Seller’s own securities during the trading day. Buyer is advised that during
        any trading day that Buyer’s securities are commingled with Seller’s securities, they [will]* [may]** be subject to liens granted
        by Seller to [its clearing bank]* [third parties] ** and may be used by Seller for deliveries
        on other securities transactions. Whenever the securities are commingled, Seller’s ability to resegregate substitute securities
        for Buyer will be subject to Seller’s ability to satisfy [the clearing] * [any]** lien or to obtain substitute securities.

         

        *     
        Language to be used under 17 C.F.R, §403.4 (e) if Seller is a government securities broker or dealer other than a financial
        institution.

         

        **      Language
        to be used under 17 C.F.R. §403.5 (d) if Seller is a financial institution.

         



 


		9.	Substitution






		(a)	Seller may, subject to agreement with and acceptance by Buyer, substitute
other Securities for any Purchased Securities. Such substitution shall be made by transfer to Buyer of such other Securities and
transfer to Seller of such Purchased Securities. After substitution, the substituted Securities shall be deemed to be Purchased
Securities.



 


		(b)	In Transactions in which Seller retains custody of Purchased Securities,
the parties expressly agree that Buyer shall be deemed, for purposes of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, to have agreed to and
accepted in this Agreement substitution by Seller of other Securities for Purchased Securities; provided, however, that such other
Securities shall have a Market Value at least equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Securities for which they are substituted.



 


		10.	Representations






Each of Buyer and Seller represents
and warrants to the other that (i) it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement, to enter into Transactions contemplated
hereunder and to perform its obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution, delivery and
performance, (ii) it will engage in such Transactions as principal (or, if agreed in writing, in the form of an annex hereto or
otherwise, in advance of any Transaction by the other party hereto, as agent for a disclosed principal), (iii) the person signing
this Agreement on its behalf is duly authorized to do so on its behalf (or on behalf of any such disclosed principal), (iv) it
has obtained all authorizations of any governmental body required in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions hereunder
and such authorizations are in full force and effect and (v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
Transactions hereunder will not violate any law, ordinance, charter, bylaw or rule applicable to it or any agreement by which it

to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder
and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not
already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not
yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). The nondefaulting
party shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency) give notice to the defaulting party of the exercise of such option
as promptly as practicable.



 


		(b)	In all Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, if
the nondefaulting party exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph,

party, and the defaulting party shall deliver all such Purchased Securities to the nondefaulting party.

option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, the nondefaulting party, without prior notice to the defaulting party,
may:



 


		(i)	as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, (A)
immediately sell, in a recognized market (or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner) at such price or prices as the nondefaulting

to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion
elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Securities, to give the defaulting party credit for such Purchased
Securities in an amount equal to the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent

party hereunder; and

at the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing offer quotation from
such a source.



 


			Unless otherwise provided in Annex I, the parties acknowledge and agree
that (1) the Securities subject to any Transaction hereunder are instruments traded in a recognized market, (2) in the absence
of a generally recognized source for prices or bid or offer quotations for any Security, the nondefaulting party may establish
the source therefor in its sole discretion and (3) all prices, bids and offers shall be determined together with accrued Income
(except to the extent contrary to market practice with respect to the relevant Securities).



 


		(e)	As to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, the
defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for any excess of the price paid (or deemed paid) by the nondefaulting

to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph.

of a Transaction.

liable to the nondefaulting party for interest on any amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder, from the date the defaulting
party becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by the defaulting party or (ii) satisfied
in full by the exercise of the nondefaulting party’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by the defaulting party to the
nondefaulting party under this Paragraph 11(h) shall be at a rate equal to the greater of the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction
or the Prime Rate.

		19.	Intent






		(a)	The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term

such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract”

		(b)	It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Securities delivered to it in connection
with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate
such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended.



 


		(c)	The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,”
as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is
a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder
(except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).



 


		(d)	It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and
subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment
entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement”
or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one
or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

The parties acknowledge that they have
been advised that:


 


		(a)	in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities
Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;



 


		(b)	in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government
securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide
protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by

clauses (x) and (y), Buyer shall be satisfied in its sole and absolute discretion exercised in good faith that at such time of
determination the Market Value plus the Remaining Margin Deficit Cure Collateral Amount as of such time of determination is equal
to or exceeds Buyer’s Required Amount for all Transactions.

to deliver information under Paragraph 6 of this Annex I (Agreement to Deliver Information) within the time specified; provided
that the failure of Party B to deliver to GS the amendment to the Senior Credit Agreement for Extraction Oil & Gas Holdings
until May 16, 2016 as described in the Reservation of Rights Letter dated June 20, 2016 from Party A to Party B shall not constitute
an Event of Default for purposes of this clause (viii);

	 	Strafford Funding LLC




     


    

 


		(ix)	Party B fails to pay any Financing Fee Payment or any
Make-Whole Amount when and as the same shall become due payable and such failure shall continue unremedied for five business days
after written notice thereof from Party A to Party B;



 


		(x)	Party B fails to notify Party A as to a change in legal

		(xv)	Party B fails to observe or perform any covenant, agreement
or obligation contained in the Agreement or the Master Confirmation (other than the matters referred to in the preceding clauses
(i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (viii), (ix) (x), (xi), (xii) and (xiii)) and such failure, if capable of remedy, shall continue unremedied
for a period of thirty (30) or more days after the earlier of Party B’s knowledge thereof and notice thereof from Party
A to Party B;



 


		(xvi)	the limited liability company agreement or any other
organizational document of Party B (collectively, the “Organizational Documents”), or any provision thereof,
shall be amended, modified, changed, waived, terminated, cease to be effective or cease to be the legally valid, binding and enforceable

the validity or enforceability of the Agreement or the Master Confirmation against Party B by Party A or the rights and remedies
of Party A against Party B under the Agreement or the Master Confirmation;

of the Agreement or the Master Confirmation against Party B by Party A or the rights and remedies of Party A against Party B under
the Agreement or the Master Confirmation; or



 


		(xviii)	Party B:



 


		(A)	defaults (other than by failing to make a delivery) under a Specified Transaction or any credit
support arrangement relating to a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace
period, such default results in a liquidation of, an acceleration of obligations under, or an early termination of, that Specified
Transaction;



 


		(B)	defaults, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, in making any
payment due on the last payment or exchange date of, or any payment on early termination of, a Specified Transaction (or, if there
is no applicable notice requirement or grace period, such default continues for at least one business day);



 


		(C)	defaults in making any delivery due under (including any delivery due on the last delivery or exchange
date of) a Specified Transaction or any credit support arrangement relating to a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect

under, or an early termination of, all transactions outstanding under the documentation applicable to that Specified Transaction;

or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on its behalf).”



 



    
	Annex I■13	 
	 	Strafford Funding LLC




     


    

 


		(b)	Paragraph 11 of the Agreement is hereby amended by replacing subparagraph (a) thereof with the
following:



 


		“(a)	The nondefaulting party may, at its option, declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder
and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not
already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not
yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). The nondefaulting
party shall give notice to the defaulting party of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.”



 


		(c)	Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) of the introductory paragraph to Paragraph 11 of the Agreement,
it will not be an Event of Default if:



 


		(A)	Seller fails to transfer Purchased Securities on the applicable Purchase Date for a Transaction,
but Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, (1) if Buyer has paid the Purchase Price to Seller, require Seller to immediately repay
the sum so paid; (2) if there exists a Margin Deficit in respect of such Transaction, require Seller to deliver (in accordance
with the notice and delivery requirements of Paragraph 4 of the Agreement) margin in an amount equal to such Margin Deficit; and
(3) at any time while such failure continues, terminate such Transaction (but only such Transaction) (“Buyer Mini Close-out”)
and upon such termination, the provisions of Paragraph 11 of the Agreement shall apply with respect to the terminated Transaction
(but only such Transaction).



 


		(B)	Buyer fails to transfer Purchased Securities on the applicable Repurchase Date for a Transaction,
but Seller may, by written notice to Buyer, (1) if Seller has paid the Repurchase Price to Buyer, require Buyer to immediately
repay the sum so paid; and (2) at any time while such failure continues, terminate such Transaction (but only such Transaction)
(“Seller Mini Close-out”, and together with Buyer Mini Close-out, “Mini Close-out”) and upon
such termination, the provisions of Paragraph 11 of the Agreement shall apply with respect to the terminated Transaction (but only
such Transaction).



 


			Any transfer of margin pursuant to Clauses (A)(2) above, shall be due and payable within the time
period specified in Paragraph 4(c) of the Agreement with respect to cash (as if such notice from Buyer were a notice requesting
the delivery of margin), and any failure to make any such transfer or payment shall be an event that will be an Event of Default
under paragraph 11(iii).



 


			For the avoidance of doubt, it shall be an Event of Default under the Agreement if, with respect
to any amount due and payable under Paragraph 11 following any Mini Close-out, such amount is not paid by the defaulting party
before the end of the Business Day on which the defaulting party receives notice of such due and payable amount from the non-defaulting
party, if the defaulting party receives such notice before the Margin Notice Deadline. If any such notice is given after the Margin
Notice Deadline on a Business Day, the party receiving such notice shall transfer such amount due and payable no later than the
close of business in the relevant market on the next Business Day following receipt of such notice.

		9.	Notices. Paragraph 13 of the Agreement shall be amended by replacing the last sentence thereof
with the following:



 


			“All notices, demands and requests hereunder shall be made in writing (which may include,
without limitation, email notifications) to the address (or email address) set forth in Annex II.”



 


		10.	Qualified Institutional Buyers. It is agreed that with respect to Transactions in
Purchased Securities which are eligible for resale under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (“Rule 144A Securities”), the following representations shall apply:



 


		(a)	on the Purchase Date for any Transaction, (i) Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer is familiar
with the provisions of Rule 144A, (ii) Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer is a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”
as such term is defined in Rule 144A, (iii) Seller represents and warrants that Seller is not, and within the preceding three months
has not been, an “affiliate,” as that term is used in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, of the issuer of any Purchased
Securities, and (iv) Seller represents and warrants that any Purchased Securities transferred to Buyer are not subject to any legal
or regulatory restrictions on transfer other than those applicable to “restricted securities” within the meaning of
Rule 144; and



 


		(b)	on the Repurchase Date for any Transaction, (i) Seller represents and warrants that Seller is familiar
with the provisions of Rule 144A, (ii) Seller represents and warrants that Seller is a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”
as such term is defined in Rule 144A, (iii) Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer is not, and within the preceding three months
has not been, an “affiliate,” as that term is used in Rule 144, of the issuer of any Purchased Securities, and (iv)
assuming the accuracy and completeness of Seller’s representations under subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, Buyer represents
and warrants that any Purchased Securities transferred to Seller are not subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions on transfer
other than those applicable to “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144.



 


		11.	Assignment. Paragraph 15 of the Agreement is hereby
amended by inserting the following between the first and second sentences of subparagraph 15(a):



 


“Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Party A may not assign its rights nor delegate its obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the prior written
consent of the other party to this Agreement, and any purported assignment or delegation absent such consent is void, except for
an assignment or delegation of all of the Party A’s rights and obligations hereunder in whatever form Party A determines
may be appropriate to (i) Goldman Sachs & Co. or any other Affiliate of Party A (other than Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. or any
other business development company that is an Affiliate of Party A) or (ii) any other third party organized under the laws of the
United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (a “Third Party”); provided that,
with respect to an assignment by Party A under the foregoing clause (ii), Party B shall have the right to cause the Repurchase
Date of all (but not less than all) of the Transactions then outstanding to occur simultaneously (an “Assignment-Related
Repurchase Date Acceleration”, and the date thereof the related “Assignment-Related Repurchase Date”)
on not less than two Business Days’ notice to Party A if neither such Third Party nor any credit support provider of such
Third Party has a long-term unsubordinated credit rating of at least Baa3 by Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. or at least
BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Rating Group immediately prior to the assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Make-Whole
Amount (as defined in the Master Confirmation) will be owing by Party B in connection with any Assignment-Related Repurchase Date
Acceleration. Upon any such delegation and assumption of obligations, so long as Goldman Sachs & Co., such other Affiliate
of Party A or the Third Party, as the case may be, shall be responsible for all such obligations, Party A shall be relieved of
and fully discharged from all future obligations hereunder from and after such delegation and assumption.”


 



    
	Annex I■15	 
	 	Strafford Funding LLC




     


    

 


		12.	Termination. Paragraph 15 of the Agreement shall be amended by replacing the last sentence
of subparagraph (a) thereof with the following:



 


			“This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect (except with respect
to any obligations of Party A and Party B that are otherwise expressly stated in the Agreement or the Master Confirmation as surviving
termination, which shall, as so specified, survive without prejudice and remain in full force and effect) on the first date after
all obligations under all Transactions have been paid in full.”



 


		13.	Operational Error. Notwithstanding any
other provision contained herein, no Event of Default under subparagraphs (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (ix) of paragraph 11
of the Agreement shall have occurred if (i) the relevant failure to pay or transfer is caused solely by an error or omission of
an operational nature or by the failure of the defaulting party or a custodian of the defaulting party to make any payment
or delivery to the nondefaulting party after the defaulting party has issued instructions; (ii) assets were available to such
party to make the relevant payment or transfer when due; and (iii) the defaulting party has upon the non-defaulting party’s
request, provided to the nondefaulting party, written verification of clauses (i) and (ii) above that is reasonably satisfactory
to the nondefaulting party and (iv) such payment or transfer is made by the close of business on the day after notice of the relevant
failure to pay or transfer is given to the defaulting party.



 


		14.	Set-off. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default with respect to a party (“X”), the other party (“Y”) will have the right (but not
be obliged) without prior notice to X or any other person to set-off or apply any obligation of X owed to Y (or any Affiliate
of Y) (whether or not matured or continent and whether or not arising under this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place
of payment or booking office of the obligation) against any obligation of Y (or any Affiliate of Y) owed to X (whether or not
matured or contingent and whether or not arising under this Agreement, and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking
office of the obligation). Y will give notice to the other party of any set off effected under this paragraph 14 to Annex I, provided
that any failure to give such notice shall not invalidate the relevant set off.



 


			Amounts (or the relevant portion of such amounts) subject to set-off may be converted by Y into
the currency in which the other is denominated at the rate of exchange at which such party would be able, acting in a reasonable
manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency.



 


			If an obligation is unascertained, Y may in good faith estimate that obligation and set off in
respect of the estimate, subject to such party accounting to (and, if the set off in respect of the estimate exceeds the ascertained
obligation, settling with and reimbursing) the other when the obligation is ascertained.



 



    
	Annex I■16	 
	 	Strafford Funding LLC




     


    

 


			Nothing in this paragraph 14 to Annex I will be effective to create a charge or other security
interest. This paragraph 14 to Annex I will be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts,
lien or other right to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).



 


		15.	Additional Representation. Party B represents
that it is a limited liability company formed under the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware (a “Delaware
LLC”) and agrees to notify Party A prior to a change in legal structure which would have the effect of Party B ceasing
to exist as a Delaware LLC.
