or indirect competition with the Issuer or any Affiliates of the Issuer, including other Affiliates of the Manager.


 


(e)
Definitions. For purposes hereof:


 


(i)
“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, any other Person that directly or indirectly through
one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person and, for the purposes
of this definition, the term “controls,” “is controlled by” or “under common control with”
means, with respect to any Person, the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the

political subdivision thereof, any entity or body exercising executive, legislative, judicial, regulatory or administrative functions
of or pertaining to government, including any court, quasi-governmental authority, self-regulatory organization, commission, tribunal,
agency or any political or other subdivision, department, board, bureau, or branch or official of any of the foregoing.


 


(f)
Additional Services. Nothing herein shall prevent the Manager from providing additional services not otherwise set forth
herein, and any such additional Services shall be deemed to be included in Section 1(a)(ii).


 


2.
Other Related Activities.


 


(a)
The Manager and Affiliates thereof shall have the right to offer perks to owners of the notes referenced in the Offering, subject
to compliance with applicable laws, and the costs of which will be paid by the Manager.


 


(b)
The Manager shall bear any incremental third-party costs associated with such activities related to the activities set forth in

3.
Compensation and Expenses.


 


(a)
In consideration for the services described in Section 1(a)(i), the Issuer shall pay market rates ranging between $30 and $250
per hour, according to the services performed. Market rates shall be paid for the services described in Section 1(a)(ii) as approved
in writing and in advance by the Issuer.


 


(b)
All services shall be billed to Issuer or one of its Affiliates, as appropriate, pursuant to normal and customary billing and
invoicing practices with respect to the type of services performed.


 


(c)
For avoidance of doubt, any fees paid to the Manager or its Affiliates for any such services referenced hereunder will not reduce
the Issuer’s management fee with respect to the Offering.


 


4.
Indemnification.


 


(a)
Indemnification of Protected Persons. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Issuer and its Affiliates shall jointly
and severally indemnify, hold harmless, protect and defend the Manager, the Manager’s Affiliates, any officer, manager,
board member, employee or any direct or indirect partner, member or shareholder of the Manager, any Person who serves at the request
of the Manager on behalf of the Issuer or any of Issuer’s Affiliates as an officer, director, partner, member, manager,
board member, shareholder or employee of any other Person, and any Person who was, at the time of the act or omission in question,
such a Person (each, a “Protected Person”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, including
legal fees, costs and expenses incurred in investigating or defending against any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
or in enforcing the Protected Person’s right to indemnification under this Agreement (collectively, “Liabilities”),
to which any Protected Person may become subject (i) by reason of any act or omission or alleged act or omission (even if negligent)
arising out of or in connection with the activities of a Party; or (ii) by reason of the fact that it is or was acting in connection
with the activities of such Party in any capacity or that it is or was serving at the request of any Party as a partner, member,
shareholder, director, officer, employee or agent of any Person, unless, in each case, such Liability results from such Protected
Person’s own actual fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, breach of fiduciary duty, reckless disregard
of duty or any material breach of this Agreement or conduct that is subject of a criminal proceeding (where such Protected Person
has reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful). The termination of any proceeding by settlement, judgment, order,
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, by itself, create a presumption that such Protected
Person’s conduct constituted actual fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, breach of fiduciary duty, reckless
disregard of duty or any material breach of this Agreement or the commission of a crime, except a judgment, order or conviction
that expressly provides that such Protected Person’s conduct constituted actual fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct,
bad faith, breach of fiduciary duty, reckless disregard of duty or any material breach of this Agreement or the commission of
a crime.


 




    	 



     


    

 


(b)
Reimbursement of Expenses. The Issuer shall promptly reimburse (and/or advance to the extent reasonably required) each
Protected Person for reasonable legal or other expenses (as incurred) of such Protected Person in connection with investigating,
preparing to defend or defending any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding relating to any Liabilities for which the Protected Person
may be indemnified pursuant to this Section 4; provided, that such Protected Person executes a written undertaking to repay the
Issuer, as applicable, for such reimbursed or advanced expenses if it is finally judicially determined that such Protected Person
is not entitled to the indemnification provided by this Section 4. In any action, suit or proceeding against Protected Persons,
such Protected Persons shall jointly employ, at the expense of the Issuer, counsel of the Protected Persons’ choice, which
counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, in such action, suit or proceeding; provided that if retention of joint
counsel by such Protected Persons would create a conflict of interest, each Protected Person whose participation in such joint
representation would cause such a conflict shall have the right to employ, at the expense of the Issuer, separate counsel of the
respective Protected Person’s choice, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer in such action, suit
or proceeding; provided, however, that if any indemnitor shall acknowledge in writing its liability to the Protected Person for
any action, suit or proceeding brought by a third party in connection with which any Protected Person is seeking indemnification,
then such indemnitor shall be entitled to select the counsel to defend such action, suit or proceeding, subject to the approval
of the Protected Person, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.


 


(c)
Survival of Protection. The provisions of this Section 4 shall continue to afford protection to each Protected Person regardless
of whether such Protected Person remains in the position or capacity pursuant to which such Protected Person became entitled to
indemnification under this Section 4 and regardless of any subsequent amendment to this Agreement; provided, that no such amendment
shall reduce or restrict the extent to which these indemnification provisions apply to actions taken or omissions made prior to
the date of such amendment.


 


(d)
Recovery. Each Protected Person shall use its reasonable efforts to pursue other third-party sources of indemnification
in respect of any Liabilities for which it or any Protected Person may require indemnification in accordance with this Section
4. If any Protected Person recovers any amounts in respect of any Liabilities from insurance coverage or any third-party source,
then such Protected Person shall, to the extent that such recovery is duplicative, reimburse the Issuer for any amounts previously
paid to it by the Issuer in respect of such Liabilities.


 


(e)
Survival. The rights of indemnification provided in this Section 4 will be in addition to any rights to which a Protected
Person might otherwise be entitled by contract or as a matter of law, and shall extend to each of such Protected Person’s
heirs, successors and assigns. The provisions of this Section 4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.


 


(f)
Exceptions to Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Issuer’s obligations
under Section 4(a) (Indemnification of Protected Persons) and Section 4(b) (Reimbursement of Expenses) shall not
apply to any actions, suits or proceedings in which one or more officers, directors, partners, members or employees of the Manager
are making claims against the Manager or one or more other officers, directors, partners, members or employees of the Manager.


 


5.
Assignment. Any assignment of this Agreement by a Party shall require the approval of the other Party.


 


6.
Term and Termination.


 


(a)
This Agreement shall terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the dissolution of the Issuer; (ii) upon notice of termination from
the Manager that the Manager desires to withdraw as the Manager of the Issuer with respect to the Offering, which the Manager
may give at any time in the event that the Manager determines that it desires to cease providing services of the type as set forth
herein to any Person, and provided that the Manager does so cease providing such services thereunder and (iii) on the joint agreement
of the Parties.


 


(b)
In addition to the termination provisions as set forth in Section 6(a), the Issuer may terminate this Agreement at any time upon
any of the following:


 


(i)
the commission by the Manager or any of its executive officers of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct;


 




    	 



     


    

 


(ii)
the conviction of the Manager of a felony;


 


(iii)
a material breach by the Manager of the terms of this Agreement which breach is not cured within 30 days after receipt by the
Manager of a notice of such breach from any member of the Issuer (provided that if such breach is not capable of cure within 30
days, and Manager is diligently taking steps to cure the breach, then no such event shall be deemed to have occurred unless and
until the Manager fails to cure such breach within 60 days after receiving notice thereof);


 


(iv)
a material violation by the Manager or any of its executive officers of any applicable law that has a material adverse effect
on the business of the Issuer; or


 


(v)
the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Manager.


 


(c)
The Parties shall, on the date of such termination or if it does not have the available funds on such date, as soon as practicable
after it does have the available funds, pay any accrued but costs subject to reimbursement by such Parties through to such date.

8.
Arbitration.


 


(a)
Either Party may, at its sole election, require that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final
and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 8 (this “Arbitration Provision”). The arbitration shall
be conducted in King County, Washington. There shall be a sole arbitrator who shall be an attorney or retired judge with no less
than ten years of experience in resolving commercial disputes in the finance industry. As used in this Arbitration Provision,
“Claim” shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving the Parties
or any Protected Person relating to or arising out of this Agreement, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the
last sentence of Section 8(e) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement.
Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); a constitution,
statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include (without limitation) matters arising as initial claims,
counter-claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest
possible interpretation that is enforceable.


 




    	 



     


    

 


(b)
The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) or
JAMS. The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with,
the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision
or any countervailing law. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the Manager and this Arbitration Provision,
this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have
the rules and policies of the administrator apply.


 


(c)
Absent a ruling to the contrary from the arbitrator, the Parties shall split the administrative costs of the arbitration, including
filing costs and all administrative fees. Each Party shall bear the expense of its own attorney’s fees, except as otherwise
provided by law.


 


(d)
Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, a party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel
selected according to the rules of the arbitration administrator. In the event of such an appeal, an opposing party may cross-appeal
within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed.
Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the arbitration administrator’s rules,
in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and
any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”),
and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.


 


(e)
Each party agrees not to invoke its right to arbitrate an individual Claim that a party may bring in Small Claims Court or an
equivalent court, if any, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT,
NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF
OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN
ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT.


 


(f)
Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration
may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in
the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to
the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect
to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (i) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party,
or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party, or (ii) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than
a named party. No party or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this Section 8(f),
and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any
challenge to the validity of this Section 8(f) shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the party or any arbitrator.


 


(g)
This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable
under the FAA. The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator
may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this
Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court.
The arbitrator shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.


 




    	 



     


    

 


(h)
This Arbitration Provision shall survive (i) suspension, termination, revocation, closure, or amendments to this Agreement and
the relationship of the Parties; and (ii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Party or other party. If any portion of this Arbitration
Provision other than sub-section (e) is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision
shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the
limitations on such proceedings in Section 8(e) are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of Section 8(e) to be unenforceable,
then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims
or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.


 


9.
Miscellaneous.


 


(a)
Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended in any manner other than by an instrument in writing signed by
the Parties or their respective successors or permitted assigns.


 


(b)
Waivers. No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived unless such waiver is in writing and signed by or
on behalf of the Party granting the waiver.


 


(c)
Entire Agreement. Other than as specifically set forth herein, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreement or understanding between them with respect
to such subject matter.


 


(d)
Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


(e)
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Delaware, without regard to the
conflicts of laws principles thereof. To the extent of any disagreement or matter relating to this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the enforceability of the arbitration provisions of this Agreement or the enforcement of any arbitration award, such
disagreement or matter shall be exclusively submitted to the federal or state courts located in King County, Washington.


 


(f)
Limitation on Damages. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL
OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, EVEN IF INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE FOREGOING SHALL BE INTERPRETED AND HAVE EFFECT TO
THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RULE OR REGULATION.


 


(g)
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE,
BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY
AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY. THE PARTIES HERETO
WAIVE A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS RELATED THERETO.


 


(h)
Successors and Assigns. Except as herein otherwise specifically provided, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns.


 


(i)
Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Protected Person is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Agreement and shall have
the right to enforce its rights under this Agreement as if it were a direct Party. Other than as set forth herein, this Agreement
is between the Parties and there are no other third-party beneficiaries hereto, and no other party shall have the right to enforce
this Agreement.


 


(j)
Headings. Captions contained in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit
or extend the scope or intent of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 


(k)
Interpretation. Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or the plural
shall include the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, the feminine or neuter gender shall include the
masculine, the feminine and the neuter.


 


(l)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all
of which together shall constitute one instrument.
