#### Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 2, 2023 (the "<u>Closing Date</u>"), Regional Management Corp. (the "<u>Company</u>") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Regional Management Receivables VI, LLC ("<u>RMR VI</u>"), entered into a Credit Agreement, dated as of February 2, 2023 (the "<u>RMR VI Credit Agreement</u>"), by and among the Company, as servicer (the "<u>Servicer</u>"), RMR VI, as borrower (the "<u>Borrower</u>"), the lenders and agents from time to time parties thereto, Regions Bank, as administrative agent (the "<u>Administrative Agent</u>"), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as securities intermediary (the "<u>Securities Intermediary</u>") and backup servicer (the "<u>Backup Servicer</u>"). The RMR VI Credit Agreement provides for a revolving $75 million warehouse facility (the "<u>RMR VI Warehouse Facility</u>") and will be secured by large and small consumer loans and convenience checks, including loans originated electronically and online (collectively, the "<u>Receivables</u>"), that are originated by certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company and a certificate that represents a beneficial interest in Receivables originated by another direct subsidiary of the Company (the "<u>2023-1A SUBI Certificate</u>").

The following table summarizes certain aspects of the RMR VI Warehouse Facility (capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the RMR VI Credit Agreement):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Facility Size** | $75 million  |

| **Interest Rate** | The forward-looking term rate based on the secured overnight financing rate ("<u>SOFR</u>") for a one-month tenor determined in the manner set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement plus (i) 0.10% per annum, plus (ii) the applicable Margin, plus (iii) the applicable Step-Up Margin. |
| **Alternative Rate<sup>2</sup>** | A rate per annum equal to the greatest of (i) the Administrative Agent's most recently announced rate of interest as its prime commercial rate for U.S. dollar-denominated loans made in the United States (the "<u>Prime Rate</u>"), (ii) the federal funds rate determined in the manner set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement plus 0.50% per annum (the "<u>Federal Funds Rate</u>"), and (iii) term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such day determined in the manner set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement plus 1.0% per annum (the highest of the foregoing being the "<u>Base Rate</u>"). |
| **Margin** | 2.50% per annum |
| **Step-Up Margin** | (i)during the Revolving Period, 1.00% per annum;<br> (ii)after the occurrence of a Facility Amortization Event other than a Servicer Termination Event or an Event of Default, 1.00% per annum; and<br> (iii)after the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or an Event of Default, 2.00% per annum. |
| **Unused Commitment Fee Rate** | 0.50% per annum |

| **Amortization Period** | The period from the termination of the Revolving Period to the payment in full of all amounts due under the RMR VI Warehouse Facility. |
| **Maturity Date** | The Payment Date falling in the twelfth month following the month in which the Revolving Period terminates. |

---

1. During the occurrence of a Level I Trigger Event, the Advance Rate will decrease to 75.00%.

2. The Base Rate will apply during any Benchmark Unavailability Period.

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the RMR VI Warehouse Facility, from time to time following the Closing Date, on each funding date (the "<u>Funding Date</u>"), certain wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company (each, an "<u>Originator</u>" and collectively, the "<u>Originators</u>") will sell and transfer Receivables and related assets (the "<u>Transferred Assets</u>")

------

originated by such Originators to the Company pursuant to the first tier master purchase agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the "<u>First Tier Master Purchase Agreement</u>"), by and among such Originators, as sellers and the Company, as purchaser, and in turn the Company will sell and transfer the Transferred Assets to the Borrower pursuant to the second tier purchase agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the "<u>Second Tier Purchase Agreement</u>"), by and between the Company, as seller and the Borrower, as purchaser, and such Transferred Assets will be pledged by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the RMR VI Credit Agreement to secure the obligations of the Borrower to the secured parties under the RMR VI Credit Agreement. Recourse to each of the Originators that is a party to the First Tier Master Purchase Agreement and to the Company pursuant to the Second Tier Purchase Agreement is limited to an obligation of the applicable seller to repurchase a Receivable if it is determined that there was a breach of any representation or warranty relating to such Receivable as of the relevant date specified in the First Tier Master Purchase Agreement or the Second Tier Purchase Agreement, as applicable. The Company is required to cure, repurchase from the Borrower or substitute any Receivable that was not an eligible Receivable as of the relevant date specified in the RMR VI Credit Agreement. Separately, the Company, in its capacity as the Servicer under the RMR VI Credit Agreement, is required to repurchase any Receivable that has been modified by the Servicer in excess of the concentration limits set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement. The Borrower granted a lien on and security interest in all of its right, title, and interest in, to, and under all of its assets and properties, including the Transferred Assets and related collateral, that are acquired by the Borrower on each Funding Date and the 2023-1A SUBI Certificate, to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the secured parties under the RMR VI Credit Agreement.

In connection with the closing of the RMR VI Warehouse Facility, the Borrower paid to Regions Bank, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, an upfront fee. In addition, the Borrower is required to pay interest at the applicable Interest Rate on the applicable loan balance of the loans made by the lenders under the RMR VI Credit Agreement from the date of such loans following the Closing Date until the date such applicable loan balance has been paid in full. The applicable loan balance is payable on each Payment Date to the extent that the applicable loan balance exceeds the borrowing base calculated in the manner set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement on the related determination date during the Revolving Period and, following the Revolving Period, is payable on each Payment Date to the extent of available amounts for such payment until paid in full in accordance with the priority of payments for such Payment Date set forth in the RMR VI Credit Agreement. The Borrower has the right to prepay all or any portion of the loans without penalty, upon delivery of a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent, the agents under the Credit Agreement, the Securities Intermediary and each hedge counterparty, if any, at least two business days prior to such prepayment. In connection with prepayment, the Borrower is required to pay to the lenders certain breakage costs that are attributable to any administrative loss, cost, or expense (but excluding lost profits) incurred by the secured parties on prepayments made on a date other than a Payment Date.

The RMR VI Credit Agreement permits the Servicer to delegate in the ordinary course of business any or all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the Originators in their separate capacities as the subservicers (each, a "<u>Subservicer</u>"), provided that (i) each Subservicer is responsible for servicing the Receivables in the state in which such Subservicer is located, and (ii) the Servicer remains at all times responsible for the performance of each Subservicer's duties and obligations.

The RMR VI Credit Agreement contains covenants that require the Servicer with respect to any collection period commencing with the collection period in which the initial Funding Date occurs to maintain certain delinquency ratios, extension ratios, annualized charge-off ratios, and excess spread percentage ratios subject to certain holidays that follow a securitization as described in the RMR VI Credit Agreement. A failure to maintain such ratios may result in a Level I Trigger Event, Level II Trigger Event, or Level III Trigger Event as described in the RMR VI Credit Agreement.

The RMR VI Credit Agreement contains customary Servicer Termination Events (subject to certain materiality thresholds and cure periods), including among others, (a) the occurrence of a Level III Trigger Event, (b) failure by the Servicer to deliver any collections or make any payment, transfer, or deposit, (c) failure to deliver a monthly report or monthly loan tape, (d) a merger or consolidation of the Servicer in breach of the RMR VI Credit Agreement, (e) non-compliance with covenants, (f) breach of representations or warranties, (g) an insolvency event involving the Servicer, (h) an Event of Default shall have occurred and have not been waived, (i) a failure by the Servicer to comply with certain anti-corruption laws, or (j) a failure by any Subservicer to maintain all necessary licenses, and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the ownership or lease of its property and or the conduct of its business with respect to the servicing of consumer loans (including the Receivables) requires such qualifications, licenses or approvals. The remedies for such Servicer Termination Events include termination and replacement of the Servicer as servicer under the RMR VI Credit Agreement. At any time following the assumption of the duties of the Servicer by the Backup Servicer following the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event or other circumstance pursuant to which the Backup Servicer is appointed as the successor Servicer, if requested by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of lenders holding the requisite percentage of the loan balance), the Servicer and the Backup Servicer must work with the Administrative Agent and the lenders to take certain actions to centralize servicing, including establishing a lockbox and directing the obligors to remit all future payments to such lockbox.

------

The RMR VI Credit Agreement also contains customary Events of Default (subject to certain materiality thresholds and cure periods), including among others, (a) non-payment, (b) the loans outstanding exceeding the borrowing base with an extended cure period if such excess is due solely to a decrease in the Advance Rate following a Level I Trigger Event, (c) non-compliance with covenants, (d) non-compliance with representations and warranties, (e) an insolvency event involving the Company, the Borrower, or the Originators, (f) the breach of certain financial covenants, (g) a Servicer Termination Event, (h) failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain a first prior perfected security interest in any material portion of the collateral, (i) a change in control of the Company or the Borrower, (j) an Event of Default under a material financing agreement of any Regional Management entity in excess of a specified monetary threshold, or (k) any of the Company, the Borrower, or the Originators have one or more final non-appealable judgements entered against it by a court of competent jurisdiction in excess of a specified monetary threshold. The remedies for such termination events are also customary for this type of transaction and include acceleration of the Borrower's outstanding obligations under the RMR VI Credit Agreement.

Regions Bank in its capacity as the Administrative Agent and the initial lender and agent under the RMR VI Credit Agreement (and its affiliates) have in the past provided and/or may in the future provide investment banking, underwriting, lending, commercial banking, trust, and other advisory services to the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. These parties have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates for such services.

For a complete description of the terms of the RMR VI Credit Agreement, see Exhibit 10.1 hereto. The foregoing description of the RMR VI Credit Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the RMR VI Credit Agreement, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Section 2.01.<u>Loans</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement (including the conditions precedent set forth in Article 4), the Borrower may from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Period, request that each Conduit Lender and Committed Lender make an advance (each such advance, a "<u>Loan</u>") in the amount of each such Conduit Lender's or Committed Lender's Lender Percentage of the Principal Amount of the Loan requested (each, a "<u>Lender Advance</u>"), to the Borrower on a Funding Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)No later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to a proposed Funding Date, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent, the Agents and the Lenders of such proposed Funding Date and Loan by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Agents (with a copy to the Securities Intermediary):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)a Funding Request, which will include, among other things, the proposed Funding Date, a calculation of the Borrowing Base (calculated as of the previous Determination Date or, with respect to the initial Funding Date or any Receivables added or to be added to the Collateral following such Determination Date, but prior to or on such date of determination, the related Cutoff Date), each as of the date the Loan is requested and the Principal Amount of the Loan requested, which shall be in an amount at least equal to $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)an updated Schedule of Receivables that includes each Receivable, if any, that is to be purchased by the Borrower with the proceeds of the proposed Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Following receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Agents and the Lenders of a Funding Request, and prior to the Revolving Period Termination Date (i) each Conduit Lender (if any) may, in its sole discretion, make its Lender Advance of any Loan requested by the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.01(b)</u>, and (ii) each Committed Lender, to the extent not made by the Conduit Lender in its Lender Group (if any), severally agrees to make its Lender Advance of any Loan requested by the Borrower, in each case, subject to the conditions contained herein, in an aggregate amount equal to the Loan so requested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)In no event shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)a Committed Lender be required on any date to fund a Principal Amount that would cause the Loans Outstanding with respect to such Committed Lender's Lender Group, as determined after giving effect to such funding, to exceed such Committed Lender's Commitment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)any Loan be requested hereunder, nor shall any Lender be obligated to fund its Lender Advance of any Loan, to the extent that after giving effect to such Loan, the Loans Outstanding would exceed the Borrowing Base (calculated as of the previous Determination Date or, with respect to any Receivables added or to be added to the

------

Collateral following such Determination Date, but prior to or on such date of determination, the related Cutoff Date); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)the Principal Amount of the Loans made on any Funding Date exceed the Available Amount on such day.

Section 2.02.<u>Funding Mechanics</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If any Funding Request is delivered to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Agents after 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, such Funding Request shall be deemed to be received prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day and the proposed Funding Date of such proposed Loan shall be deemed to be the next Business Day following such deemed receipt. Each Funding Request shall include a representation by the Borrower that (i) the requested Loans will not, on the related Funding Date, exceed the Available Amount, (ii) after giving effect to such Loans, the Loans Outstanding will not exceed the Borrowing Base, and (iii) a representation that all of the conditions precedent to the making of such Loan have been satisfied or will be satisfied as of the proposed Funding Date. Any Funding Request shall be irrevocable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Conduit Lender shall notify the Agent for its Lender Group and the Administrative Agent by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Funding Date whether it has elected to make its Lender Advance offered to it pursuant to Section 2.01. In the event that a Conduit Lender shall not have timely provided such notice, such Conduit Lender shall be deemed to have elected not to make its Lender Advance of such Loan. If the Conduit Lender shall have elected or be deemed to have elected not to make its Lender Advance of such Loan, the Committed Lender in such Lender Group shall make available on the applicable Funding Date an amount equal to the portion of the Loan that each such Conduit Lender has not elected to fund, in an amount equal to its share of the Principal Amount to be funded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Each Lender's Lender Advance of a Loan shall be made, subject to the fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article Four, at or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Funding Date, by deposit of immediately available funds to the Borrower Operating Account. Each Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the other Agents in the event that any Lender in such Agent's Lender Group either fails to make such funds available before such time or notifies such Agent that it will not make such funds available before such time (such Lender, if a Committed Lender, shall be referred to herein as a "<u>Defaulting Lender</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)If any Lender Group containing a Defaulting Lender that is a Committed Lender (a "<u>Defaulting Group</u>") fails to fund its ratable portion of any Loan requested by the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.01</u> (the aggregate amount unavailable to the Borrower as a result of such failure being herein called the "<u>Borrowing Deficit</u>"), then the Borrower, by no later than 1:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Funding Date shall instruct each Agent for a Lender Group with a Committed Lender that does not include a Defaulting Lender (a "<u>Non-Defaulting Group</u>") to make Loans by deposit of immediately available funds to the Borrower Operating Account in an amount equal to such Non-Defaulting Group's proportionate share (based upon the Commitment of the Committed Lender(s) in each Non-Defaulting Group relative to the Aggregate Commitment less the Commitment of the Defaulting Group) of the Borrowing Deficit

------

and shall notify the Securities Intermediary thereof. Each Committed Lender in a Non-Defaulting Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to fund on the date of such request, but in any event no event later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Non-Defaulting Group Funding Date shall fund, its proportionate share (based upon the Commitment of the Committed Lender(s) in each Non-Defaulting Group relative to the Aggregate Commitment less the Commitment of the Defaulting Group) of the Borrowing Deficit; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, for the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall have any obligation to fund any such Advance unless each of the conditions precedent stated therefor in <u>Section 2.01(b)</u> and <u>Section 2.01(d)</u> is satisfied after giving effect thereto. The Committed Lender that is the Defaulting Lender shall forthwith, upon demand, pay to the applicable Agents for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in the Non-Defaulting Groups all amounts paid by each such Lender in the Non-Defaulting Groups on behalf of such Defaulting Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date a payment was made by the Lenders in the Non-Defaulting Groups until the date such Lenders have been paid such amounts in full, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus 1.00% per annum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)In the event that, notwithstanding the fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article Four with respect to a Loan, a Conduit Lender elected to make an advance on a Funding Date but failed to make its Lender Advance available to the Borrower when required by <u>Section 2.02(c)</u>, such Conduit Lender shall be deemed to have rescinded its election to make such advance, and neither the Borrower nor any other party shall have any claim against such Conduit Lender by reason of its failure to timely make such purchase. In any such case, the Borrower shall give notice of such failure not later than 1:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Funding Date to the related Agent, the Committed Lender for such Lender Group and to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify (i) the identity of such Conduit Lender and (ii) the amount of the Lender Advance which it had elected but failed to make. Subject to receiving such notice, such Committed Lender shall advance a portion of the Principal Amount in an amount equal to the amount described in <u>clause (ii)</u> above, at or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Funding Date and otherwise in accordance with <u>Section 2.01(d)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)If any Lender makes available to the Borrower funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the provisions of <u>Sections 2.01</u> and <u>2.02</u>, and the conditions to the applicable Loan set forth in Article Four are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Borrower shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)If any Loan is not made or effectuated, as the case may be, due to the Borrower's failure to satisfy, or continue to satisfy, the conditions to fund the Loan on the proposed Funding Date, the Borrower and the Servicer shall jointly and severally indemnify each Lender against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender, including any loss (including loss of anticipated profits, net of anticipated profits in the reemployment of such funds in the manner determined by such Lender), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided, that the Commitments of the

------

Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender's failure to make Loans as required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that any election by any Lender, in its sole discretion, on one or more occasion to fund any Loan on any day prior to the final passage of the applicable notice period set forth in <u>Section 2.01(a)</u> above shall not constitute or be deemed to be an amendment, waiver or other modification of the requirement for such notice prior to any Lender funding any other Loan hereunder.

Section 2.03.<u>Reductions of Commitments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)At any time the Borrower may, upon at least ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, each Agent, the Securities Intermediary and each Hedge Counterparty, if any, reduce the Facility Amount, which shall be applied, unless otherwise consented to by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) and the Agents, pro rata to the Aggregate Commitment. Each partial reduction shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Reductions of the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to this Section shall be allocated to the Commitment of each Committed Lender and each Conduit Lender, pro rata based on the Lender Percentage of the Aggregate Commitment represented by such Commitment. Any request for a reduction in the Facility Amount shall be irrevocable and the Borrower shall deliver no more than two such requests in any 12-month period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)In connection with any reduction of the Facility Amount, the Borrower shall remit (i) first, to each applicable Agent for the ratable payment to each Lender, the amount sufficient to pay the Aggregate Unpaids due to such Lenders with respect to such reduction of the Facility Amount, including any associated Breakage Costs and (ii) second, to the relevant Hedge Counterparty, any Hedge Breakage Costs due to such Hedge Counterparty with respect to the reduction of the Loans Outstanding; *provided, however*, that no such reduction shall be given effect unless the Borrower has complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring that any Hedge Transaction related thereto be terminated in whole or in part as a result of any such reduction in the Loans Outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)On the Revolving Period Termination Date, the Commitments of all Lenders shall be automatically reduced to zero.

Section 2.04.[Reserved].

Section 2.05.<u>Promise to Pay; Evidence of Indebtedness</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the order of each Lender, or to each Agent on behalf of each Lender in its related Lender Group, as applicable, the portion of the Loans funded by such Lender, together with all accrued Interest thereon and all other Aggregate Unpaids, as set forth herein in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds and to pay interest, in like money, from the date on which such Loans were made at the rates and on the dates specified herein.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Agent on behalf of the members of its Lender Group is hereby authorized to enter notations (which may be computer generated) in its books and records with respect to the portion of the Loans made by the members of such Agent's related Lender Group, as applicable hereunder, regarding each payment and repayment of principal thereof. Any such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information so recorded. The failure of the applicable Agent to make any such notation shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and the Aggregate Unpaids in accordance with their respective terms as set forth herein.

Section 2.06.<u>Optional Principal Repayment</u>

. The Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Loans Outstanding on any Business Day without penalty, upon delivery of a Prepayment Notice to the Administrative Agent, the Agents, the Securities Intermediary and each Hedge Counterparty, if any, at least two (2) Business Days prior to such anticipated prepayment; provided that (i) the amount prepaid is at least $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $250,000 in excess thereof (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Administrative Agent); (ii) the Borrower pays to each of the Secured Parties, on the date of any such prepayment, each such Secured Party's pro rata allocable share of (a) accrued Interest with respect to the portion of the Loans Outstanding to be prepaid through the date of prepayment, as calculated by the Administrative Agent, and (b) the pro rata portion of all other Aggregate Unpaids relating to such prepayment (including all Breakage Costs, but excluding all Hedge Breakage Costs and any other amounts payable by the Borrower under or with respect to any Hedging Agreement) payable to any Indemnified Party under this Agreement through the date of such prepayment, including Indemnified Amounts pursuant to <u>Section 11.01</u>; (iii) the Borrower certifies that following such prepayment, the Borrower will be in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement; (iv) no such reduction shall be given effect unless the Borrower has complied with the terms of any Hedging Agreement requiring one or more Hedge Transactions be terminated in whole or in part as a result of any such reduction; (v) the Borrower has paid all Hedge Breakage Costs due to the relevant Hedge Counterparty for such termination and (vi) the principal amount of such prepayment of the Loans Outstanding shall be allocated to each Lender ratably based on its Invested Percentage. Any notice of a prepayment shall be irrevocable.

Section 2.07.<u>Payments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Borrower shall pay Interest on the unpaid Principal Amount of each Loan for the period from and including the related Funding Date until the date that such Loan shall be paid in full. Interest shall accrue during each Interest Period and be payable on the Loans Outstanding on each Payment Date in accordance with <u>Section 2.08</u>, unless earlier paid pursuant to <u>Section 2.06</u> or <u>Section 2.15</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Principal Amount of each Loan, all Interest thereon, together with all other Aggregate Unpaids, shall be due and payable, if not previously paid, on the Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Lender's Invested Percentage of the Loans Outstanding shall bear interest for each day during an Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Interest Rate on such day for such Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Interest calculated by reference to Term SOFR shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed during the related Interest Period and (ii)

------

the Prime Rate and the Federal Funds Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- or 366- day year, as applicable, for the actual days elapsed. Periodic fees or other periodic amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and for the actual number of days elapsed during the related Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The principal of and Interest on the Loans shall be paid as provided herein. In the case of Loans held by an Agent as agent for its Lender Group, such Agent shall allocate to the members of its Lender Group each payment in respect of such Loans received by such Agent as provided herein. Payments in respect of principal and Interest (including pursuant to <u>Section 2.06</u>) shall be allocated and applied to Owners of such Loans based on their respective Invested Percentages, or in any such case in such other proportions as each affected Lender may agree upon in writing from time to time with such Agent and the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)At or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the first Business Day prior to each Reporting Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the Interest Rates determined in accordance with the terms hereof. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the Interest Rate pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders, each Agent, the Borrower, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer, in the absence of manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, if at any time the rate of interest payable by any Person under the Basic Documents exceeds the Maximum Lawful Rate, then, so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, such rate of interest shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest so payable is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, such Person shall continue to pay Interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received from such Person is equal to the total Interest that would have been received had Applicable Law not limited the interest rate so payable. In no event shall the total Interest received by a Lender under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents exceed the amount which such Lender could lawfully have received, had the Interest due been calculated from the Closing Date at the Maximum Lawful Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time that are consistent with changes that the Administrative Agent is implementing in similar warehouse facilities and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Basic Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Basic Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

Section 2.09.<u>Changed Circumstances</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)<u>Circumstances Affecting Benchmark Availability</u>

. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof or

------

otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period or (ii) any Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining such Loans during such Interest Period, then in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a SOFR Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any Breakage Costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)<u>Laws Affecting SOFR Availability</u>

. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Administrative Agent with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any SOFR Loan, or to determine or charge interest based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Adjusted Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower (an "<u>Illegality Notice</u>"). Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) any obligation of any Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to a SOFR Loan or continue any Loan as a SOFR Loan, shall be suspended and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Base Rate shall be computed without reference to clause (c) of the definition of "Base Rate". Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, prepay or, if applicable, convert all SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans (in each case, if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Base Rate shall be computed without reference to clause (c) of the definition of "Base Rate"), on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans, to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any Breakage Costs.

Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective on the date agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Basic Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Basic Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)<u>Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Basic Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be

------

representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of "Interest Period" (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)<u>Benchmark Unavailability Period</u>. Upon the Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

Section 2.13.<u>Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If any Regulatory Change (i) subjects any Affected Party to any charge or withholding on or with respect to this Agreement or an Affected Party's obligations under this Agreement, or on or with respect to a Loan and/or the Receivables, or changes the basis of taxation of payments to any Affected Party of any amounts payable under this Agreement (except for Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes), (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, fee, tax (except for Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes), insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or liabilities of an Affected Party, or credit extended by an Affected Party pursuant to this Agreement or (iii) imposes any other condition affecting a Loan or a Lender's right hereunder (other than Taxes), the result of which (A) is a fee, expense, internal capital charge or other imputed cost allocable to any Affected Party, (B) increases the cost to an Affected Party of performing its obligations under this Agreement or (C) reduces the rate of return on an Affected Party's capital or assets as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Agreement, or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests or loans held or interest received by it, then, within 15 Business Days after demand by the applicable Agent on behalf of such Affected Party, the Borrower shall pay to such Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Affected Party, such amounts charged to such Affected Party or such amounts to otherwise compensate such Affected Party for such increased cost or such reduction. The Borrower acknowledges that any Affected Party may institute measures in anticipation of a Regulatory Change (including the imposition of internal charges on such Affected Party's interests or obligations under this Agreement), and may commence allocating Early Adoption Increased Costs, in advance of the effective date of such Regulatory Change, and the Borrower agrees to pay such Early Adoption Increased Costs to the Affected Party within 30 days after demand therefor without regard to whether such effective date has occurred; provided, however, that such amounts shall be payable to an Affected Party only if such Affected Party represents and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)If as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in <u>Section 2.13(a)</u> or <u>2.13(b)</u>, any Affected Party is required to compensate a Credit Provider in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Loans hereunder, then within 15 days after demand by such Affected Party, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Affected Party for any such amounts paid by it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)In determining any amount provided for in this Section, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any Affected Party making a claim under this Section shall submit to the Borrower a certificate describing such additional or increased cost or reduction in reasonable detail, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)If any Lender has or anticipates having any claim for compensation from the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.13(a)</u>, and such Lender believes that having the Loans under this

------

Agreement (or any related Credit Facility or Liquidity Facility provided by a Lender with respect to a Conduit Lender hereunder) rated by a particular nationally recognized statistical rating organization would reduce the amount of such compensation by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, such Lender shall provide a Ratings Request to the Borrower and the Servicer that such Lender intends to request a Required Rating. The Borrower and the Servicer agree that they shall cooperate with such Lender's efforts to obtain the Required Rating, and shall provide the applicable nationally recognized statistical rating organization (either directly or through distribution to the Administrative Agent or Lender) any information requested by such nationally recognized statistical rating organization for purposes of providing and monitoring the Required Rating. The Lender or Lenders providing the Ratings Request shall pay the initial fees payable to such nationally recognized statistical rating organization for providing the rating and all ongoing fees payable to such nationally recognized statistical rating organization for their continued monitoring of the rating. Nothing in this subsection shall preclude any Lender from demanding compensation from the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.13(a)</u> at any time and without regard to whether the Required Rating shall have been obtained, or shall require any Lender to obtain any rating on the facility prior to demanding any such compensation from the Borrower.

Section 2.14.<u>Taxes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)All payments made by the Borrower in respect of the Loans and all other payments made by the Borrower or the Servicer under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including FATCA), unless such withholding or deduction is required by Applicable Law. In such event, the applicable withholding agent shall make such withholding or deduction and shall pay to the appropriate taxing authority any such Taxes required to be deducted or withheld and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes the amount payable to a Lender, the Administrative Agent or an Agent, as the case may be, will be increased (such increase, the "<u>Additional Amount</u>") such that after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes (including any deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes on such Additional Amount), the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes in respect of which the Borrower is required to pay Additional Amounts (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on such Additional Amounts) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Lender or the Administrative Agent making a demand for indemnity payment hereunder shall provide the Borrower with a certificate from the relevant taxing authority or from a Responsible Officer of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, stating or otherwise evidencing that it has made payment of such Taxes . Such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date a Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the

------

extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.01(g) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of any Taxes pursuant to this Section, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Agent at its address set forth below its name on the signature pages of this Agreement, appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)If an Agent or Lender is a U.S. Person, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary, upon the earlier of 15 days after the Closing Date or on or prior to the date on which such entity becomes an Agent or Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable written request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Person is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)If an Agent or Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a State or is otherwise not a U.S. Person, such Person shall, to the extent that it may then do so under Applicable Law, deliver to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary, (i) upon the earlier of 15 days after the Closing Date, or on or prior to the date on which such entity becomes an Agent or Lender hereunder and (from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), (ii) two executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or Form W-8IMY accompanied by the relevant certification documents for each beneficial owner (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements which may be required and requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or Applicable Law), as appropriate, and (iii) two executed copies (of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law) to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; provided, however, that the delivery of any form or documentation pursuant to this subclause (other than the specific IRS Forms and related documentation (and any successor forms) described in clause (i) above) shall not be required if in the related Agent's or Lender's reasonable judgment the completion, execution or delivery of such form or documentation would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. For any period with respect to which an Agent or Lender has failed to provide the

------

Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or statement described in this subsection (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date of this Agreement), with a copy to the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary, such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under <u>Section 2.13</u> or <u>Section 2.14(a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> with respect to any Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)If a payment made to any Agent or Lender under any Basic Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Agent or Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Agent or Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Securities Intermediary, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Securities Intermediary as may be necessary for the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Agent or Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)Each Agent and Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Securities Intermediary of its legal inability to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)Within 30 days of the written request of the Borrower therefor, each Lender shall execute and deliver to the Borrower such certificates, forms or other documents which can be furnished consistent with the facts and which are reasonably necessary to assist the Borrower in applying for refunds of Taxes remitted hereunder; provided, however, that (i) a Lender shall not be required to deliver such certificates, forms or other documents if in its sole discretion exercised in good faith it is determined that the deliverance of such certificate, form or other document would have a material adverse effect on such Lender and (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender for any reasonable expenses incurred in the delivery of such certificate, form or other document. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of Additional Amounts), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>paragraph (h)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>paragraph (h)</u> the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not

------

been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person or to file a refund or claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j)Each Agent and Lender is deemed to understand, acknowledge and agree that the Securities Intermediary has the right to withhold on payments (without any corresponding gross-up) where an applicable party fails to comply with the requirements of Applicable Law. The Borrower hereby covenants with the Securities Intermediary that the Borrower will provide the Account with sufficient information as requested by the Securities Intermediary so as to enable the Securities Intermediary to determine whether or not the Securities Intermediary is obliged to make any withholding, including under FATCA, in respect of any payments (and if applicable, to provide the necessary detailed information to effectuate any such withholding) and to provide such additional information as requested by the Securities Intermediary that it may have to assist the Securities Intermediary in making determination as to its obligations with respect to any withholdings or informational reports.

Section 2.15.<u>Securitizations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)On any Business Day, the Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or a portion of the Loans Outstanding and require the Administrative Agent to release its security interest and Lien on the related Receivables (and the other related Collateral) in connection with a Securitization, which release shall be delivered in the form of the Securitization Release on the Securitization Date, subject to the following terms and conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)unless a Securitization is to be effected on a Payment Date (in which case the relevant calculations with respect to such Securitization shall be reflected on the applicable Monthly Report), the Servicer shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Agent (A) a Securitization Date Certificate (which shall include the relevant calculations with regard to such Securitization, including a calculation of the Borrowing Base after giving effect to such Securitization and any distribution to the Borrower of excess funds pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(iv)(z)), together with evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and the Agents that the Borrower shall have sufficient funds on the related Securitization Date to effect such Securitization in

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans owned by it any payment in excess of its Invested Percentage of the Loans Outstanding (such excess payment, the "<u>Excess Amount</u>"), such Lender shall immediately (i) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such fact and (ii) repay to the Borrower forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Borrower, at the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of Excess Amounts owed under this Section and will in each case notify each Agent following the payment of any Excess Amounts or the repayment thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)If any Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to <u>Section 2.16(a)</u>, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), instruct the Servicer to instruct the Securities Intermediary pursuant to any related Monthly Report to apply any amounts thereafter allocated to such Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u> to satisfy such Lender's obligations under <u>Section 2.16(a)</u> until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in good faith in accordance with or believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or

------

powers conferred, by this Agreement or at the direction of a Secured Party relating to the exercise of any power conferred upon the Securities Intermediary under this Agreement in each case unless it shall be proved that the Securities Intermediary shall have been grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)The Securities Intermediary shall not be charged with knowledge of any event or information, including any Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Facility Amortization Event, or be required to act (including the sending of any notice) upon any such event or information, including any Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Facility Amortization Event, unless a Responsible Officer of the Securities Intermediary has actual knowledge of such event or receives written notice of such event from the Borrower, the Servicer or any Secured Party, and shall have no duty to take action to determine whether any such event, default or Event of Default shall have occurred. The Securities Intermediary shall have no obligation whatsoever either prior to or after receiving any such written notice to investigate or verify that such event has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any such notice so furnished to it. The Securities Intermediary shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any event or information held by or imputed to any Person (including an Affiliate, or other line of business or division of the Securities Intermediary) other than itself in its capacity as Securities Intermediary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)The Securities Intermediary shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability shall not be reasonably assured to it. None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Securities Intermediary to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations or the acts or omissions of the Borrower, Servicer or any other party under this Agreement, and the Securities Intermediary may assume performance of such parties absent written notice or actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Securities Intermediary to the contrary.

The Securities Intermediary shall have no liability for any action or inaction taken at the direction of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Borrower or, if paid by the Securities Intermediary, shall be reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u>.

The Securities Intermediary shall not be liable for any action or omission to act hereunder, except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

THE FOREGOING PARAGRAPH SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY THE SECURITIES INTERMEDIARY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o)If the Securities Intermediary shall at any time receive conflicting instructions from the Administrative Agent and the Servicer or any other party to this Agreement and the conflict between such instructions cannot be resolved by reference to the terms of this Agreement, the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to rely on the instructions of the Administrative Agent.

The Securities Intermediary may conclusively rely upon the validity of documents delivered to it, without investigation as to their authenticity or legal effectiveness, and the Securities Intermediary shall not be liable to the Servicer or any other party to this Agreement in respect of any claims that may arise or be asserted against the Securities Intermediary because of the invalidity of any such documents or their failure to fulfill their intended purpose. The Securities Intermediary shall not be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement on the part of any party, and may assume performance of such parties absent written notice or actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Securities Intermediary to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p)The Securities Intermediary is authorized, in its sole discretion, to disregard any and all notices or instructions given by any other party hereto or by any other Person other than any such notices or instructions as are expressly provided for in this Agreement or the Account Control Agreement and orders or process of any court entered or issued with or without jurisdiction. If any property subject hereto is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part hereof, then and in any of such events the Securities Intermediary is authorized, in its sole discretion, to rely

------

upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree with which it is advised by legal counsel of its own choosing is binding upon it, and if it complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree it shall not be liable to any other party hereto or to any other Person by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree maybe subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q)Any Person into which the Securities Intermediary may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Securities Intermediary shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the Securities Intermediary's corporate trust services business, provided that such Person is a depository institution or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any State (or any domestic branch of a foreign bank) that is approved by each of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer and the Borrower shall, upon written confirmation thereof by the Securities Intermediary to the other parties hereto, be the successor of the Securities Intermediary under this Agreement, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r)The Securities Intermediary may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Agreement by providing written notice thereof to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; provided, however, that except as provided below, no such resignation or termination shall be effective until a successor Securities Intermediary is appointed (and accepts such appointment) pursuant to the terms of this <u>Section 2.18</u>.

If neither the Borrower nor the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) has appointed a successor Securities Intermediary within 60 days after receipt of the Securities Intermediary's notice of resignation, the Securities Intermediary may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Securities Intermediary, with the cost of such petition (including any attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs) to be borne by the Borrower.

Nothing herein shall be construed to impose an obligation on the part of the Securities Intermediary to investigate evaluate, verify, independently determine or re-calculate any information, statement, representation or warranty or any fact or matter stated in, or the accuracy of, any such document and may conclusively rely as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t)Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, the Securities Intermediary shall have no duty to conduct any investigation as to the occurrence of any

condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable by any Person pursuant to this Agreement, or the eligibility of any Receivable for purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u)Before the Securities Intermediary acts or refrains from taking any action under this Agreement, it may require an Officer's Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel from the party requesting that the Securities Intermediary act or refrain from acting in form and substance acceptable to the Securities Intermediary, the costs of which (including the Securities Intermediary's reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) shall be paid by the party requesting that the Securities Intermediary act or refrain from acting. The Securities Intermediary shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on any such Officer's Certificate and/or Opinion of Counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Securities Intermediary shall not be liable for any loss or damage or any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder if it is prevented from so performing its obligations by any reason which is beyond the control of the Securities Intermediary, including by any existing or future law or regulation, any existing or future act of governmental authority, act of God, flood, war whether declared or undeclared, terrorism, riot, rebellion, civil commotion, other industrial action, labor dispute, disease, epidemic or pandemic, quarantine, national emergency, general failure of electricity or other supply, technical failure, accidental or mechanical or electrical breakdown, computer failure or failure of any money transmission system and any other market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions or any event where, in the reasonable opinion of the Securities Intermediary, performance of any duty or obligation under or pursuant to this Agreement would or may be illegal or would result in the Securities Intermediary being in breach of any Applicable Law or any practice, request, direction, notice, announcement or similar action of any Governmental Authority to which the Securities Intermediary is subject.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Securities Intermediary shall not be required to take any action if it shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by its counsel, that such action is likely to expose the Securities Intermediary to personal liability, is contrary to this Agreement or is not in accordance with Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x)The right of the Securities Intermediary to perform any permissive or discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement or any related document shall not be construed as a duty. In the event that any provision of this Agreement implies or requires that action or forbearance from action be taken by a party but is silent as to which party has the duty to act or refrain from acting, the parties hereto agree that the Securities Intermediary shall not be the party required to take the action or refrain from acting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ff)In the event that (i) the Securities Intermediary is unsure as to the application or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, (ii) this Agreement or any other Basic Document is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that the Securities Intermediary is required or permitted to take with respect to a particular set of facts, or (iii) more than one methodology can be used to make any determination to be performed by the Securities Intermediary hereunder or thereunder, then the Securities Intermediary may give written notice to the Administrative Agent requesting written instruction and, to the extent that the Securities Intermediary acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such written instruction, the Securities Intermediary shall not be personally liable to any Person. If the Securities Intermediary shall not have received such written instruction within ten (10) calendar days of delivery of notice to the Administrative Agent (or within such shorter period of time as may reasonably be specified in such notice or as may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any action, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

Section 3.02.<u>Release of Collateral; No Legal Title</u>.

The Borrower further confirms and agrees that such collateral assignment to the Administrative Agent shall terminate upon the

------

Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that the rights of the Secured Parties pursuant to such collateral assignment with respect to rights and remedies in connection with any indemnities and any breach of any representation, warranty or covenants made by Regional Management pursuant to the Second Tier Purchase Agreement, which rights and remedies survive the termination of the Second Tier Purchase Agreement, shall be continuing and shall survive any termination of such collateral assignment.

Nothing herein shall have the effect of releasing the Borrower from any of its obligations under any Hedging Agreement or any Hedge Transaction, nor be construed as requiring the consent of any Secured Party for the performance by the Borrower of any such obligations.

Such report shall also indicate that the firm is "Independent" of the Servicer and its Affiliates within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

The Borrower, upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby revocably appoints the Servicer, and the Servicer hereby accepts such appointment, to act as the agent (solely in its capacity as Servicer under the Basic Documents) of the Borrower for the benefit of the Secured Parties, solely in the Servicer's capacity as custodian of the Receivable File.

The Servicer will make available to the Administrative Agent and each Lender or their duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors a list of locations of the Receivable Files upon reasonable request. Notwithstanding any reference herein or in any other Basic Document to the Electronic Vault Provider acting as a designated custodian of the Administrative Agent, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, and shall have no duty to supervise or monitor, the default, misconduct or any other action or omission of the Electronic Vault Provider and that the Administrative Agent may assume the Electronic Vault Provider's performance of its duties and obligations under the Basic Documents.

The Servicer's appointment as custodian with respect to any Receivable shall become effective as of the Cutoff Date for such Receivable and will continue in full force and effect until terminated pursuant to this paragraph.

Upon the resignation or termination of the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement, the Servicer shall cause to be transferred to the Backup Servicer control of the Electronic Contracts in the Electronic Vault to the extent the Backup Servicer becomes the Successor Servicer in accordance with this Agreement, or another Successor Servicer. In the event that the Backup Servicer becomes the Successor Servicer in accordance with this Agreement or a Successor Servicer is appointed, the outgoing Servicer shall promptly transfer to the Backup Servicer or a Successor Servicer, as applicable, in such manner and to such location as the Backup Servicer or a Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall reasonably designate, all of the Receivable Files in its possession; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, if the Backup Servicer is the Successor Servicer, (i) the Backup Servicer shall notify the Electronic Vault Provider of the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, and (ii) the initial Servicer shall promptly transfer possession of the Electronic Vault to the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer; it being agreed by the Servicer that it shall reasonably cooperate with the Backup Servicer with respect to effecting any such notification or transfer.

For the avoidance of doubt, the related image of a Contract that is an Electronic Contract will be stored in the Electronic Vault and will not be retained by the Servicer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)<u>Subcustodian</u>.

To the extent that the Reserve Account or the Collection Account is a "deposit account" within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(29) of the UCC, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with any order or instructions (each also, an "Order") from the Administrative Agent directing disposition of funds in the account without further consent by the Borrower, Regional Management, the Servicer or any other person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the electronic file or the Monthly Report does not contain sufficient information for the Backup Servicer to perform any action hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Servicer of any additional information to be delivered by the Servicer to the Backup Servicer, and the Backup Servicer and the Servicer shall mutually agree upon the form thereof; *provided, however,* that the Backup Servicer shall not be liable for the performance of any action unable to be taken hereunder without such additional information until it is received from the Servicer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Prior to the Closing Date, the Servicer shall deliver the Test Data File to the Backup Servicer, in a format acceptable to the Backup Servicer.

In the event the Backup Servicer has actual knowledge or

receives written notice of Errors or Continued Errors, the Backup Servicer shall promptly notify the Servicer of such Errors or Continued Errors; provided, however, that the Backup Servicer shall have no duty or obligations to reconstruct or reconcile such data.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)The Backup Servicer shall be indemnified by the Servicer and the Borrower from and against all claims, damages, losses or expenses reasonably incurred by the Backup Servicer (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs) arising out of claims asserted against or by the Backup Servicer on any matter arising out of this Agreement to the extent the act or omission giving rise to the claim accrues before the date on which the Backup Servicer assumes the duties of Servicer hereunder, except for any claims, damages, losses or expenses arising from the Backup Servicer's own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. All such amounts payable by the Borrower shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.08. All such amounts payable by the Servicer, to the extent not promptly paid by the Servicer, shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.08. For the avoidance of doubt, such indemnified amounts shall include any expense and costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and court costs, incurred in connection with any enforcement (including any action, claim or suit) brought by the Backup Servicer of any indemnification or other obligation of the indemnifying party or other Person. The provisions of this section shall survive the termination or assignment of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and the resignation or removal of any party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)The Backup Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of its obligations set forth in this Agreement or any obligations assumed by the Backup Servicer from the Servicer pursuant to <u>Section 7.14</u>. Such liability is limited to only those actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Backup Servicer and caused through its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. No implied duties (including fiduciary duties), covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Backup Servicer and, in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Backup Servicer may conclusively rely on the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed in any certificates or opinions furnished to the Backup Servicer and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)The Backup Servicer shall not be charged with knowledge of any event or information, including any Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Facility Amortization Event, or be required to act (including the sending of any notice) upon any such event or information, including any Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default or Facility Amortization Event, unless a Responsible Officer of the Backup Servicer has actual knowledge of such event or receives written notice of such event from the Borrower, the Servicer or any Secured Party, and shall have no duty to take action to determine whether any such event, default or Event of Default shall have occurred. The Backup Servicer shall have no obligation whatsoever either prior to or after receiving any such written notice to investigate or verify that such event has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any such notice so furnished to it. The Backup Servicer shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any event or information held by or imputed to any Person (including an Affiliate, or other line of business or division of the Backup Servicer) other than itself in its capacity as Backup Servicer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)The Backup Servicer shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of

------

any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability shall not be reasonably assured to it. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any obligation or the acts or omissions of the Borrower, the Servicer (so long as it is not the Successor Servicer, in which case it shall be obligated to perform as Servicer hereunder) or any other Person, contained in this Agreement, and the parties shall look only to such parties to perform such obligations, and the Backup Servicer may assume performance of such parties absent written notice or actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Backup Servicer to the contrary.

The Backup Servicer shall have no obligation whatsoever either prior to or after receiving any such written notice to investigate or verify that such event has in fact occurred and shall be entitled to rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any such notice so furnished to it. The Backup Servicer shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any event or information held by or imputed to any Person (including an Affiliate, or other line of business or division of the Backup Servicer) other than itself in its capacity as Backup Servicer.

Section 7.11.<u>Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others</u>

. Except as otherwise provided herein, neither the Servicer nor any of its directors or officers or employees or agents shall be under any liability to the Secured Parties, the Backup Servicer or any other Person for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such Person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of its willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of its willful misconduct hereunder.

During the continuance of any of the foregoing, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as any such Servicer Termination Event shall not have been remedied within any applicable cure period or waived in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Servicer (with a copy to each Agent, Hedge Counterparty, the Securities Intermediary and the Backup Servicer) (each, a "<u>Servicer Termination Notice</u>"), shall terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as Servicer under this Agreement and under the 2023-1A SUBI Servicing Agreement.

In no event shall the Successor Servicer be responsible for any Transition Expenses. If the predecessor Servicer fails to pay the Transition Expenses, the Transition Expenses shall be payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Upon the termination and removal of the Servicer and the assumption by the Successor Servicer hereunder and under the 2023-1A SUBI Servicing Agreement, the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the Successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the rights and responsibilities of the predecessor Servicer under this Agreement and under the

------

2023-1A SUBI Servicing Agreement, including the transfer to the Successor Servicer for administration by it of all Collections that shall at the time be held by the predecessor Servicer for deposit, or shall thereafter be received, with respect to a Receivable, the Collection Account, the Reserve Account and Servicer Files and other records maintained by the Servicer.

Furthermore, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Backup Servicer as Successor Servicer shall not be required to service the Receivables in accordance with the Collection Policy of the initial Servicer, but rather in accordance with the customary and usual servicing, administration and collection practices and procedures used by servicing companies of comparable experience to the Backup Servicer for servicing personal loans comparable to the Receivables which the Backup Servicer services for others, and shall do so in accordance with industry standards applicable to the performance of such services, and with the same degree of care as it applies to the performance of such services for any similar assets which the Backup Servicer services for similar accounts that it holds for others, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)All authority and power granted to the Servicer under this Agreement and under the 2023-1A SUBI Servicing Agreement shall automatically cease and terminate upon termination of the Servicer as servicer and shall pass to and be vested in the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do and accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such transfer of servicing rights.

------

the Borrower and are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders). Any such written solicitation shall prominently indicate that bids should specify any applicable subservicing fees required to be paid from the Servicing Fee and that any fees and transfer costs in excess of the Servicing Fee shall be paid by the Borrower from amounts received pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u>. The Borrower may also solicit additional bids from other such entities. The Successor Servicer shall act as Servicer hereunder and under the 2023-1A SUBI Servicing Agreement and shall, subject to the availability of sufficient funds in the Collection Account pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u> (up to the Servicing Fee), receive as compensation therefor a fee equal to the fee proposed in the bid so solicited which provides for the lowest combinations of servicing fee and transition costs, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) and may revise the percentage used to calculate the Servicing Fee, which, if the Backup Servicer is not the Successor Servicer, may be adjusted in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders).

------

Administrative Agent shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, take the following remedial actions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Administrative Agent may, without notice to the Borrower except as required by Applicable Law and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Loans Outstanding, any Interest accrued thereon and or any other amount due and owing to any Secured Party against amounts payable to the Borrower from the Accounts or any part of such Accounts in accordance with and subject to the priorities required by <u>Section 2.08</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Administrative Agent may take any action permitted under the Basic Documents and may exercise at the Borrower's sole expense any and all rights and remedies of the Borrower under or in connection with the Collateral, including directing that Collections be deposited into an account specified by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) (rather than to the Collection Account).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Consistent with the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (and except as otherwise required by the UCC), the Administrative Agent may, without notice except as specified below, foreclose on the Collateral or any part of the Collateral, solicit and accept bids for and sell the Collateral or any part of the Collateral in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker's board or at the Administrative Agent's offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable and the Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds from the sale of the Collateral to any amounts payable by the Borrower with respect to the Obligations in accordance with the priorities required by <u>Section 2.08</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Collateral or any part of the Collateral, at the direction of the Required Lenders following an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default described in Section 10.01(a)(i) or 10.01(a)(ii), unless: (A) 66 2/3% of the Lenders consent thereto, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation will be sufficient to pay in full the Loans Outstanding and all accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans Outstanding or (C) the Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal and interest on the Loans as they would have become due if the Loans had not been declared immediately due and payable, and the Administrative Agent obtains the consent of the Required Lenders. The Borrower agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by Applicable Law, at least seven Business Days' notice to the Borrower (with a copy to each Secured Party) of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Every such sale shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever of the Borrower in and to the Collateral so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against the Borrower or any Person claiming the Collateral sold through the Borrower and its successors or assigns.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Upon the completion of any sale under <u>Section 10.02(c)</u>, the Borrower will deliver or cause to be delivered all of the Collateral sold to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale on the date of sale, or within a reasonable time thereafter if it shall be impractical to make immediate delivery, but in any event full title and right of possession to such property shall pass to such purchaser or purchasers forthwith upon the completion of such sale. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative Agent or by any purchaser, the Borrower shall confirm any such sale or transfer by executing and delivering to such purchaser all proper instruments of conveyance and transfer and release as may be designated in any such request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)At any sale under <u>Section 10.02(c)</u>, Regional Management or any Secured Party may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor. Any Secured Party purchasing property at a sale under <u>Section 10.02(c)</u> may set off the purchase price of such property against amounts owing to such Secured Party in full payment of such purchase price up to the full amount owing to such Secured Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)The Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders) may direct the Servicer to direct Collections to an account other than the Lockbox (if applicable) or the Collection Account. The Administrative Agent and the Servicer agree to cooperate in good faith to provide the Servicer access to the information relating to the Collections deposited into such account in order for the Servicer to perform its related duties hereunder.

Section 10.03.<u>Exercise of Remedies</u>

. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between the Borrower or the Servicer, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, any Agent or Secured Party, on the other hand, shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies expressly provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Secured Parties would otherwise have pursuant to Applicable Law or equity. No notice to or demand on any party in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the other party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such court may determine.

Section 10.05.<u>Power of Attorney</u>

. The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at its expense, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and deemed occurrence or declaration of the Maturity Date pursuant to <u>Section 10.01(b)</u>, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided for in this Article, including (i) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (ii) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in connection with any sale or other disposition made pursuant hereto, (iii) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition, the Borrower thereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto and (iv) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or pursuant to any Basic Document. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, directly or through a purchaser of any of the Collateral, the Borrower shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent or such purchaser all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request.

In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent for the Secured Parties and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for the Borrower or any of its successors or assigns. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes it to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or Applicable Law. The appointment and authority of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall terminate on the Facility Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the related Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes such Agent, as the agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Basic Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties thereunder as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Agent (the Administrative Agent and each Agent being referred to in this Article as an "Agent") shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or any Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Agent (if such Agent or the Lender in its Lender Group are not otherwise required to receive such notice), who shall promptly distribute to each related Lender (if such Lender is not otherwise required to receive such notice) all notices, requests for consent and other information received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement that are not also delivered to the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify all Lenders in writing of any proposed consent, waiver, approval, vote or other action taken or to be taken by the Administrative Agent in such capacity under the Intercreditor Agreement (an "<u>Intercreditor Action</u>") within one (1) Business Day of the Administrative Agent actually receiving notice thereof, which notice shall include all information delivered to the Administrative Agent in such capacity under the Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document, all Intercreditor Actions shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent in such capacity solely at the written direction of the Required Lenders.

------

For the avoidance of doubt, the terms set forth in this <u>Section 12.01(e)</u> shall not be applicable to any other capacity in which Regions Bank may serve under the Intercreditor Agreement (other than as Administrative Agent for the Secured Parties hereunder), including any action to be taken by Regions Bank in such other capacity under the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 12.03.<u>Exculpatory Provisions</u>

. Neither any Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement (except for its, their or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct or, in the case of any Agent, the breach of its obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, the Servicer, Regional Management or the Backup Servicer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Basic Document to which it is a party for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other document furnished in connection herewith, or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder, or for the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article Four. No Agent shall be under any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements or covenants contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any of the Basic Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by, in the case of (i) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or by the Committed Lenders or (ii) an Agent, the Lenders or by the Committed Lenders in its Lender Group, against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of the Basic Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or their Agents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all present and future Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of the Basic Documents in accordance with a request of (i) Owners in its Lender Group having Invested Percentages aggregating greater than 50% of the aggregate Invested Percentages of all Owners in such Lender Group and (ii) Committed Lenders in its Lender Group having Commitments aggregating greater than 50% of the aggregate Commitments of all Committed Lenders in such Lender Group, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all present and future Lender in such Lender Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)In the event the Administrative Agent receives notice of the occurrence of any breach of this Agreement or the occurrence of any Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default, Facility Amortization Event or Servicer Termination Event from the Borrower, the Servicer or any Lender, referring to this Agreement and describing such event, it shall promptly give notice thereof to each Agent, and in the event any Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Lenders in its Lender Group. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, and each Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably directed by (i) Owners in its Lender Group having Invested Percentages aggregating greater than 50% of the aggregate Invested Percentages of all Owners in such Lender Group and (ii) Committed Lenders in its Lender Group having Commitments aggregating greater than 50% of the aggregate Commitments of all Committed Lenders in such Lender Group; provided that unless and until such Agent shall have received such directions, such Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such event as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders or of the Lenders in its Lender Group, as applicable.

Section 12.05.<u>Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders</u>

. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, Regional Management, the Servicer, any Originator or the Backup Servicer shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Servicer, Regional Management, each Originator or the Backup Servicer and the Receivables and made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under any of the Basic Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the

------

business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Servicer, Regional Management, each Originator or the Backup Servicer and the Receivables. Except for notices, reports and other documents received by an Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Servicer, Regional Management, each Originator or the Backup Servicer or the Receivables which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 12.06.<u>Indemnification</u>

. The Committed Lenders (i) agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (without limiting the obligation (if any) of the Borrower or the Servicer to reimburse the Administrative Agent for any such amounts), ratably according to their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have terminated, Invested Percentages of the Loans Outstanding) and (ii) in each Lender Group agree to indemnify the Agent for such Lender Group in its capacity as such (without limiting the obligation (if any) of the Borrower and the Servicer to reimburse such Agent for any such amounts), ratably according to their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have terminated, Invested Percentages of the Loans Outstanding), in each case from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the obligations under this Agreement, including the Loans Outstanding) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of an Agent resulting from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The provisions of this Section shall survive the payment of the Obligations under this Agreement, including the Loans Outstanding, the termination of this Agreement, and any resignation or removal of the applicable Agent.

Section 12.07.<u>Each Agent in its Individual Capacity</u>

. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and any other party to a Basic Document as though it were not an Agent hereunder. In addition, the Lenders acknowledge that one or more Persons which are Agents may act (i) as administrator, sponsor or agent for one or more Conduit Lenders and in such capacity act and may continue to act on behalf of each such Conduit Lender in connection with its business, and (ii) as the agent for certain financial institutions under the liquidity and credit enhancement agreements relating to this Agreement to which any one or more Conduit Lenders is party and in various other capacities relating to the business of any such Conduit Lender under various agreements. Any such Person, in its capacity as Agent, shall not, by virtue of its acting in any such other capacities, be deemed to have duties or responsibilities hereunder or be held to a standard of care in connection with the performance of its duties as an Agent other than as expressly provided in this Agreement. Any Person which is an Agent may act as an Agent without regard to and without additional duties or liabilities arising from its role as such administrator or agent or arising from its acting in any such other capacity. None of the provisions to this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own

------

funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.

Upon such execution, delivery and acceptance and the recording by the Administrative Agent, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be the date of acceptance thereof by the Administrative Agent, unless a later date is specified therein, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of such financial statements and other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iii) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (iv) such assigning Lender and such assignee confirm that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to such agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)The Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Borrower, shall maintain at its United States address referred to herein a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it pursuant to <u>Section 13.01(b)</u> and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, the Commitment of each Lender Group and the Principal Amount (and stated interest thereon) of each Loan made by each Lender Group from time to time (the "Lender Register"). The entries in the Lender Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Lender Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Lender Register shall be promptly available for inspection by the Backup Servicer, the Securities Intermediary, any Agent or Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Neither the Backup Servicer nor the Securities Intermediary shall be responsible for independently determining whether any Person is a Lender or if the required percentage of Lenders constituting the Required Lenders has been met in connection with any action or omission by any of such Persons hereunder. For all purposes hereunder or under any other Basic Document, the Backup Servicer and the Securities Intermediary shall be entitled to rely conclusively, without investigation, on the Lender Register, or other written statements of the Administrative Agent, to determine whether (i) any Person is a Lender or (ii) the required percentage of Lenders constituting the Required Lenders has been met in connection with any such action or omission.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed, accept such Assignment and Acceptance, and the Administrative Agent shall then record the information contained therein in the Lender Register.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and each Loan owned by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Administrative Agent, each Agent, the other Lenders and the other parties hereto shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each participant shall have the rights of a Lender (including any right to receive payment) under <u>Sections 2.13</u> and <u>2.14</u>; provided, however, that no participant shall be entitled to receive payment under either such Section in excess of the amount that would have been payable under such Section by the Borrower to the Lender granting its participation had such participation not been granted, and no Lender granting a participation shall be entitled to receive payment under either such Section in an amount which exceeds the sum of (1) the amount to which such Lender is entitled under such Section with respect to any portion of any Loan owned by such Lender which is not subject to any participation plus (2) the aggregate amount to which its participants are entitled under such Sections with respect to the amounts of their respective participations. With respect to any participation described in this Section, the participant's rights as set forth in the agreement between such participant and the applicable Lender to agree to or to restrict such Lender's ability to agree to any modification, waiver or release of any of the terms of this Agreement or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights which such Lender may have under or in respect of this Agreement shall be limited to the right to consent to any of the matters set forth in <u>Section 1</u><u>5</u><u>.01</u><u>(b)</u>. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, no Lender may sell a participation to any other person without first sending written notice to the Borrower informing it of such Lender's intention to make such sale, including the name of the proposed participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Each Lender that sells a participation shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the "<u>Participant Register</u>"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant's interest in any Commitment or Loan, letter of credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or as reasonably necessary for the Borrower, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent to comply with their respective withholding and reporting obligations under FATCA. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) nor any Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning as collateral any of its rights under this Agreement to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank or any other Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, (ii) any Lender, any Agent or the

------

Administrative Agent or any Affiliate thereof in connection with any financing or repurchase agreement entered into by such Lender or (iii) a collateral trustee or security agent for holders of commercial paper and, in each case, any such pledge or Collateral assignment may be made without compliance with Section <u>13.01(b)</u>. Furthermore, nothing herein shall prohibit or limit the ability of any Conduit Lender to sell or assign all or any portion of its Loans (or interests therein) to its Credit Providers (or to an agent on its or their behalf) pursuant to Liquidity Facilities with respect to such Conduit Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conduit Lenders in any Lender Group may assign their rights, obligations and interests related to any Loan to any other Conduit Lender in such Conduit Lender's Lender Group without providing any notice to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without providing any Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall maintain a register for the recordation of the Commitment of each Lender in its Lender Group and the Principal Amount (and stated interest thereon) of each Loan made by each Lender in its Lender Group from time to time (the "<u>Group Register</u>") and shall update its Group Register to reflect any assignments described in the immediately preceding sentence. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Conduit Lender and an assignee Conduit Lender pursuant to <u>Section 13.01(b)</u>, the Agent for such Conduit Lenders' Lender Group shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and such Agent shall then record the information contained therein in the Group Register. The Agent of each Lender Group shall keep records of the Loans held by each member of its Lender Group and shall provide notice thereof to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower upon request.

Confidential Information may not be provided to prospective participants or assignees before the execution of an Assignment and Acceptance, unless such Confidential Information is covered under a separate confidentiality agreement between the assigning Lender and such prospective participant or assignee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Each of the Backup Servicer and any Successor Servicer acknowledges and understands that the Confidential Information may contain "nonpublic personal information" as that term is defined in Section 6809(4) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the "<u>Act</u>"), and each of the Backup Servicer and any Successor Servicer, and each of its employees, Affiliates, directly involved in the transaction contemplated by the Basic Documents, agrees that it (i) shall comply with applicable laws and regulations regarding the privacy or security of "nonpublic personal information" as that term is defined in Section 509(4) of the Act, (ii) shall implement such physical and other security measures as shall be necessary to (a) ensure the security and confidentiality of the "nonpublic personal information" of the "customers" and "consumers" (as those terms are defined in the Act) of the Regional Management Entities which party may hold, (b) protect against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of such nonpublic personal information, and (c) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of such nonpublic personal information, (iii) shall promptly notify the Regional Management Entities in writing upon becoming aware of any actual breach of the security, confidentiality, or integrity of nonpublic personal information received hereunder, and (iv) shall maintain such nonpublic personal information received hereunder in accordance with the Act and other applicable federal and state privacy laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Each of the Administrative Agent, each Agent, each Lender, the Backup Servicer and any Successor Servicer agrees that it will advise its Affiliates to whom it provides Confidential Information of the confidential nature of such information and that it shall direct its Affiliates to comply with the terms of this Article Fourteen applicable to the Administrative Agent, each Agent, each Lender, the Backup Servicer or any Successor Servicer as applicable.

Each of the Administrative Agent, each Agent, each Lender, the Backup Servicer and any Successor Servicer agrees that because of the unique nature of the Confidential Information any breach of this Agreement may cause the Borrower, Regional Management and their respective Affiliates irreparable harm and money damages and other remedies available at law in the event of a breach may not be adequate to compensate the Borrower, Regional Management and their Affiliates for any such breach. Accordingly, each of the Administrative Agent, each Agent, each Lender, the Backup Servicer and any Successor Servicer acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower, Regional Management and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, as a remedy for any such breach.

No notice shall be required in connection with any disclosures made pursuant to any request or examination by any Governmental Authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)It is understood and agreed that no failure or delay by the Servicer, the Borrower, the Backup Servicer, the Successor Servicer, the Administrative Agent, any Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall

------

any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder.

In this regard, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that this disclosure of the treatment, structure or tax aspects of the transactions is not limited in any way by an express or implied understanding or agreement, oral or written (whether or not such understanding or agreement is legally binding). Furthermore, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that it does not know or have reason to know that its use or disclosure of information relating to the tax treatment, tax structure or other relevant tax aspects of the transactions is limited in any manner (such as where the transactions are claimed to be proprietary or exclusive) for the benefit of any other Person.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 15.01.<u>Amendments and Waivers</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

![](ghsso4u5eakk000001.jpg)

#### Regional Management Corp. Announces Fourth Quarter 2022 Results
*- Net income of $2.4 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.25 -*

*- Adjusted net income of $5.0 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.54 -*

*- 30+ day contractual delinquencies of 7.1% as of December 31, 2022 -*

*- Early indications of improved credit performance in the fourth quarter -*

**Greenville, South Carolina – February 8, 2023 – Regional Management Corp. (NYSE: RM), a diversified consumer finance company, today announced results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022.**

"We closed 2022 with a solid fourth quarter, including financial results that were better than our expectations," said Robert W. Beck, President and Chief Executive Officer of Regional Management Corp. "While net income was $2.4 million and diluted EPS was $0.25 in the quarter, we produced adjusted net income of $5.0 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.54. We grew our portfolio by $92 million to $1.7 billion, but continued strong demand has allowed us to be selective about the borrowers to whom we make loans, particularly as we have tightened credit since fourth quarter 2021 and intentionally slowed our growth rate throughout 2022. We finished the quarter with a 30+ day delinquency rate of 7.1%, just 10 basis points higher than 2019 pre-pandemic levels, and our first payment default rate improved to 7.1% in December, 240 basis points better than September 2022 and 170 basis points better than December 2019."

"We also took several meaningful steps in the quarter to prepare us for the new year," added Mr. Beck. "Late in the quarter, we disposed of a portfolio of non-performing loans at an attractive price. The sale enabled us to put some of our stressed segments behind us and re-focus more of our efforts on earlier-stage delinquent accounts, where we experienced improvements in roll rates and delinquency. We also continued to tighten credit in the quarter, particularly to new borrowers, completed the rollout of our next generation custom credit scorecard, expanded our collections capabilities, released an enhanced customer portal, and increased pricing in certain states and segments."

"Looking ahead, we believe that the actions we took in 2022 position us to address the challenging economic environment and will enable us to respond quickly when conditions improve," continued Mr. Beck. "In 2023, we will continue our focus on our highest confidence originations, emphasizing quality over quantity. A greater percentage of our originations will be

------

to present and former borrowers, with new borrower lending disproportionately skewed to our newer states. As a result, we expect receivables growth to slow in 2023. As always, we will tightly manage our expenses, and we will monitor our credit performance and the macroeconomic environment closely, making further adjustments to underwriting as necessary. Our business and our customers remain resilient, and we are well-positioned to drive controlled, sustainable growth and profitability on behalf of our shareholders."

*Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to comparable GAAP measures included at the end of this press release.*

#### Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights
• Net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $2.4 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.25, inclusive of a $2.7 million impact to net income from the sale of $27.1 million of non-performing loans. Excluding the impact of this loan sale, adjusted net income was $5.0 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.54.

------

• Net finance receivables as of December 31, 2022 were $1.70 billion, an increase of $273.1 million, or 19.2%, from the prior-year period.

Large loan net finance receivables of $1.2 billion increased $237.5 million, or 24.5%, from the prior-year period and represented 71.1% of the total loan portfolio, compared to 68.1% in the prior-year period. <br>

Small loan net finance receivables were $481.6 million, an increase of 8.2% from the prior-year period.<br>

#### Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The company's management utilizes non-GAAP measures as additional metrics to aid in, and enhance, its understanding of the company's financial results. Tangible equity and the funded debt-to-tangible equity ratio are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude intangible assets. Management uses these equity measures to evaluate and manage the company's capital and leverage position. The company also believes that these equity measures are commonly used in the financial services industry and provide useful information to users of the company's financial statements in the evaluation of its capital and leverage position. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per common share are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude the impacts of the non-performing loan sale. Management uses these adjusted measures to evaluate and manage the company's performance by excluding certain material items that may not be representative of the company's financial results. As a result, the company also believes that these adjusted measures will aid users of its financial statements in the evaluation of its operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following tables provide a reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The company's management utilizes non-GAAP measures as additional metrics to aid in, and enhance, its understanding of the company's financial results. The company has presented non-GAAP measures that adjust for workforce actions taken (3Q 20), incremental deferrals associated with digital loan origination costs (3Q 21), costs for discontinuing the retail loan product and acceleration of lease expense associated with relocation of our Texas office (3Q 22), and impacts associated with the loan sale (4Q 22). The company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain material items that may not be indicative of our operating results. As a result, the company believes that the non-GAAP measures that it has presented will aid in the evaluation of the operating performance of the business. In addition, pre-tax pre-provision income and absorption capacity including pre-tax pre-provision income are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude income taxes and provision for credit losses. Management uses these absorption measures to evaluate and manage the company's position to absorb losses. The company also believes that these absorption measures provide useful information to users of the company's financial statements in the evaluation of its capacity to absorb losses. Furthermore, tangible equity and the funded debt-to-tangible equity ratio are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude intangible assets. Management uses these equity measures to evaluate and manage the company's capital and leverage position. The company also believes that these equity measures are commonly used in the financial services industry and provide useful information to users of the company's financial statements in the evaluation of its capital and leverage position. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per common share are non-GAAP measures that adjust GAAP measures to exclude the impacts of the non-performing loan sale. Management uses these adjusted measures to evaluate and manage the company's performance by excluding certain material items that may not be representative of the company's financial results. As a result, the company also believes that these adjusted measures will aid users of its financial statements in the evaluation of its operating performance. This non-GAAP financial information should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies. The following tables provide reconciliations of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures. 19
