USActive 54127356.6



 

“Upsize Option Amount”: An amount designated by Seller in connection with any Upsize Option not to exceed $250,000,000 in the aggregate for all Upsize Options, provided that no Upsize Option shall be less than $75,000,000 and no more than three (3) Upsize Options shall be permitted.

(b)The defined term “Maximum Amount”, as set forth in Article 2 of the Repurchase Agreement, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“Maximum Amount”:  As of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, $750,000,000, as such amount may be increased pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.13, in each case, upon Buyer’s agreement to approve such increase (if any) in accordance therewith.  The Maximum Amount shall not be increased by any Future Funding Transaction or reduced upon the repurchase of any Purchased Assets prior to the occurrence of the Funding Expiration Date or the Maturity Date; provided, that on and after the earlier of the Funding Expiration Date and the Maturity Date, the Maximum Amount on any date shall be an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Aggregate Amount Outstanding as of such earlier date (excluding all accrued but not currently due and payable Price Differential), minus the aggregate amount of any partial repurchases pursuant to Section 3.12 following the Funding Expiration Date and (b) the Maximum Applicable Percentage of the then-currently unfunded portion of Seller’s remaining future funding obligations, if any, under any remaining Purchased Assets (but limited to, for any Extension Period, the amount elected by Seller in the written notice to Buyer as set forth in the definition of the term “Extension Fee”), as such total amount declines over the term hereof as Future Funding Transactions under Section 3.10 are funded, the remaining Purchased Assets are repurchased and Margin Deficits are satisfied, all in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, from and after the Funding Expiration Date, any diminution of Margin Deficits pursuant to Section 4.03 shall increase the Maximum Amount to the extent of any previous reduction of the Maximum Amount in accordance with the terms of this definition that are set forth above.

(c)Article 3 of the Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following new Section 3.13 in correct numerical order:

 

Section 3.13Maximum Amount Upsize Option.  Seller shall have up to three (3)  options (each, an “Upsize Option”) to request in writing to Buyer an increase of the then-current Maximum Amount by the applicable Upsize Option Amount; provided, that in no event shall the Maximum Amount be increased to an amount greater than $1,000,000,000, and in no event may Seller request an Upsize Option after the Funding Expiration Date.  Each request by Seller may be granted or denied by Buyer in its sole and absolute discretion, and no Upsize Option shall be effective unless, in each case, Buyer has approved such Upsize Option in writing and given Seller written notice of the effective date thereof and the amount of the related increase.  Seller’s request(s) to exercise any Upsize Option will be deemed to be denied if, on the date of such request or on the proposed effective date of such increase (i) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) any unsatisfied Margin Deficit exists, (iii) Buyer has requested a new or updated Beneficial Ownership Certification, as applicable, in relation to Seller (to the extent Seller qualifies as a “legal entity customer”), and Seller has failed to provide such new or updated Beneficial Ownership Certification to Buyer, or (iv) Seller has failed to pay the initial installment of the applicable Upsize Fee to Buyer.
