**Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On July 18, 2025, ASTII Funding SPV LP, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Antares Holdings LP, as borrower, and Antares Strategic Credit Fund II LLC (the "Fund"), as servicer, entered into a revolving loan facility (the "Loan Facility") pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement (the "Agreement"), with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent"), U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as collateral agent and collateral administrator, and U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral custodian. The Agreement is effective as of July 18, 2025. ASTII Funding SPV LP was acquired by the Fund shortly after the consummation of the Agreement on the same day and was then converted into a limited liability company named ASTII Funding SPV LLC (the "Credit SPV") on July 23, 2025. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement.

Loans under the Loan Facility initially bear interest at (i) a per annum rate equal to Term SOFR plus an additional margin calculated as a percentage of the aggregate principal balance of the underlying collateral obligations (the "Applicable Margin") for Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, (ii) EURIBOR plus the Applicable Margin for loans denominated in Euros, (iii) Daily Compounded CORRA plus the Applicable Margin for loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, and (iv) SONIA plus the Applicable Margin for loans denominated in Great British Pounds. The Applicable Margin will equal the product of (i) 1.60% and (ii) the lesser of: (x) aggregate principal balance of all broadly-syndicated loans divided by the aggregate principal balance of all eligible loans and (y) 35% ("Percentage") plus the product of (i) 1.875% and (ii) 100% minus Percentage, subject to a step-up of 2.00% following the occurrence of certain Events of Default.

The initial maximum principal amount under the Loan Facility is $250 million and the Agreement includes an accordion provision to permit increases to the total facility amount up to a maximum of $1 billion, subject in each case to the satisfaction of certain conditions and, for any increases above $750 million, the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Proceeds from loans made under the Loan Facility may be used to, among other purposes, fund collateral obligations acquired by the Credit SPV, to pay certain fees and expenses and to make distributions to the Fund, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Agreement. Loans borrowed under the Loan Facility may be repaid and reborrowed until the end of the Reinvestment Period, which can occur no later than July 18, 2028 (unless extended), and all amounts outstanding under the Loan Facility must be repaid by July 18, 2030. The Agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, as well as usual and customary events of default for loan facilities of this nature.

**Item 2.03.** **Creation of Direct Financial Obligation.**

The information included under Item 1.01 above regarding the Agreement and the Loan Facility is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) At any time when any one or more of the Concentration Limitations are exceeded, the Borrower (or the Servicer acting on its behalf) shall select (from among the Collateral Loans whose Principal Balance causes such Concentration Limitations to be exceeded) the Collateral Loans, or portions thereof, to be allocated to the Excess Concentration Amount, and revise such allocations from time to time.

In the event that there has been a material adverse change in the credit profile of any proposed Consent Loan following its approval by the Administrative Agent, such approval may be withdrawn at any time at least three (3) Business Days prior to the time at which the Borrower actually becomes obligated to acquire or enter into documents governing such proposed Collateral Loan by written notice (including via e-mail) of such withdrawal from the Administrative Agent to the Servicer identifying such adverse change. If the Administrative Agent has rejected an Acquisition Notice in connection with a Consent Loan, or withdrawn or withheld its approval of any such request, then the Borrower shall not be authorized to acquire such proposed Collateral Loan unless, in the case of a withdrawn approval, the Administrative Agent has not withdrawn its approval at least three (3) Business Days prior to the time at which the Borrower enters into a commitment to acquire such proposed Collateral Loan. The Administrative Agent shall not have the right to approve any Collateral Loan that is not a Consent Loan.

&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) On the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, including <u>Article III</u>, each Lender severally agrees to make loans to the Borrower (each, an "<u>Advance</u>") from time to time on any Business Day during the Reinvestment Period, on a pro rata basis in each case in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding such Lender's Commitment and, as to all Lenders, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding the applicable Borrowing Base as then in effect. Each such borrowing of an Advance on any single day is referred to herein as a "<u>Borrowing</u>".

Within such limits and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow (and re-borrow) Advances under this <u>Section 2.01</u> and prepay Advances under <u>Section 2.05</u>.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and on the Commitment Termination Date, the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Reserve Account is less than the Unfunded Exposure Amount (such amount, the "<u>Unfunded Reserve Account Shortfall</u>"), the Borrower shall either request an Advance in an aggregate amount sufficient to cause, or otherwise cause to be deposited in the Unfunded Reserve Account an amount equal to the Unfunded Reserve Account Shortfall. Following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing relating to the foregoing (which shall specify the account details of the Unfunded Reserve Account where the funds will be made available), each Lender shall fund its pro rata portion of such Advances in accordance with <u>Section 2.02(d)</u>, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the Borrower's failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in <u>Section 3.02)</u>; <u>provided</u> that, no such Advance may cause the Advances Outstanding to exceed the applicable Borrowing Base. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood and agreed that if the Borrower fails to request any Advance contemplated by this paragraph (1) such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default hereunder and (2) each party shall work to fund any such Advance when requested using commercially reasonable efforts.

Section 2.02 <u>Making of the Advances</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;(a) If the Borrower desires to make a Borrowing under this Agreement it shall give the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator) a written notice substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit B</u> hereto (each, a "<u>Notice of Borrowing</u>") for such Borrowing (which notice shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt) not later than (i) if the Advance is denominated in Dollars, 10:00 a.m. on the requested Borrowing Date, (ii) if the Advance is denominated in CAD, 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, (iii) if the Advance is denominated in EUR or GBP, 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date and (iv) if the Advance is denominated in any other Eligible Currency (other than USD, CAD, EUR or GBP), such time period determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; <u>provided</u> that, in each case, the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, waive any notice requirement from time to time and agree in its sole discretion to provide such Advance on an expedited basis.

&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) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be dated the date the request for the related Borrowing is being made, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower), shall attach a Borrowing Base Calculation Statement, and shall otherwise be appropriately completed. Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the applicable Eligible Currency. The proposed Borrowing Date specified in each Notice of Borrowing shall be a Business Day falling on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date and, with respect to Borrowings in Dollars, the amount of the Borrowing requested in such Notice of Borrowing (the "<u>Requested Amount</u>") shall be equal to at least $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the remaining unfunded Commitments hereunder or, in the case of Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans or Revolving Collateral Loans, such lesser amount required to be funded by the Borrower in respect thereof); <u>provided</u> that, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of a Borrowing in any Eligible Currency (other than Dollars), there is no required minimum amount or integral multiple.

&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) The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of its receipt of such Notice of Borrowing by (x) 12:00 p.m. in the case of an Advance in Dollars or (y) 5:00 p.m. in the case of any other Advance, in each case on the day of receipt thereof (or, if such day is not a Business Day, by noon on the next succeeding Business Day).

&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) Each Lender shall (subject to the following <u>clause (e)</u>), not later than 11:00 a.m. (or, in the case of an Advance in Dollars 1:00 p.m.) on each Borrowing Date in respect of Advances, make its Percentage of the applicable Requested Amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds by disbursing such funds to the account of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the wiring instruction set forth in the notification of Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pursuant to <u>Section 2.02(b)</u>. Once each Lender has funded its Percentage of the applicable Requested Amount, the Administrative Agent shall make the Requested Amount available to the Borrower by disbursing such funds to the Collection Account, unless the Administrative Agent has agreed in its sole discretion to make the Requested Amount available to the Borrower prior to such receipt from the Lenders.

Section 2.03 <u>Evidence of Indebtedness; Notes</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;(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to it and resulting from the Advances made by such Lender to the Borrower, from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest thereon and paid to it, from time to time hereunder; <u>provided</u> that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent and the Borrower shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the information provided to it by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Advances Outstanding with respect to each Lender.

&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) Any Lender may request that its Advances to the Borrower be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender and otherwise appropriately completed. Thereafter, the Advances of such Lender evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to <u>Section 12.06(a)</u>) be represented by a Note payable to such Lender (or registered assigns pursuant to <u>Section 12.06(a)</u>), except to the extent that such Lender (or assignee) subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Advances once again be evidenced as described in <u>clause (a)</u> of this <u>Section 2.03</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;(c) If any Lender elects not to receive a Note, all references herein and the other Facility Documents to such Lender's Note shall be deemed to mean the Advances Outstanding with respect to such Lender. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions herein and the other Facility Documents related to the Lenders hereunder shall apply to each Lender regardless of whether such Lender has received a Note.

Section 2.04 <u>Payment of Amounts</u>

The Borrower shall pay principal and Interest on the Advances and the fees set forth in the Facility Documents to the Lenders in accordance with the Priority of Payments as follows:

&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) 100% of the outstanding principal amount of each Advance, together with all accrued and unpaid Interest thereon, shall be payable on the Final Maturity Date.

&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) Interest shall accrue at the Interest Rate on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is Paid in Full.

&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) The Administrative Agent shall determine the unpaid Interest, Commitment Fees, and Prepayment Fees payable thereto prior to each Payment Date using the applicable Interest Rate for the related Interest Accrual Period to be paid by the Borrower with respect to each Advance on each Payment Date for the related Interest Accrual Period and shall advise each Lender, the Collateral Agent and the Servicer thereof and shall send a consolidated invoice of all such Interest, Commitment Fees, and Prepayment Fees to the Borrower (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) within five (5) Business Days of the Determination Date immediately preceding the Payment Date.

&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) Accrued Interest on each Advance shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Payment Date, and (ii) in connection with any prepayment in full of the Advances pursuant to <u>Section 2.05(a)</u>; <u>provided</u> that (x) with respect to any prepayment in full of the Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest on such amount through the date of prepayment may be payable on such date or as otherwise agreed to between the Lenders and the Borrower and (y) with respect to any partial prepayment of the Advances Outstanding, accrued Interest on such amount through the date of prepayment shall be payable on the Payment Date following such prepayment. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date.

&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) The obligation of the Borrower to pay the Obligations, including the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Advances and accrued interest thereon, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof (including <u>Section 2.15)</u>, under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or any other Person may have or have had against any Secured Party or any other Person.

Section 2.05 <u>Prepayment of Advances</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;(a) <u>Optional Prepayments</u>. The Borrower may, from time to time on any Business Day, voluntarily prepay Advances in whole or in part, without penalty or premium; <u>provided</u> that, the Borrower (or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower) shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent written notice of such prepayment substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit C</u> hereto (such notice, a "<u>Notice of Prepayment</u>") not later than 3:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date of such prepayment <u>(provided</u> that same day notice may be given to cure any non-compliance with the Borrowing Base Test). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of such Notice of Prepayment. Each such Notice of Prepayment shall be irrevocable and effective upon receipt and shall be dated the date such notice is being given, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower) and otherwise appropriately completed; <u>provided</u> that, any such Notice of Prepayment may be conditioned upon the happening or occurrence of a specified event, and thereafter revoked in the event that such specified event does not occur. Each prepayment by the Borrower of any Advance denominated in Dollars pursuant to this <u>Section 2.05(a)</u> (other than a prepayment made in order to cure any non-compliance with the Borrowing Base Test) shall in each case be (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) in a principal amount of at least $100,000 or, if less, the entire outstanding principal amount of the Advances Outstanding or, in the case of any prepayment of Advances with the proceeds of a prepayment or repayment of principal of Collateral Loans, such lesser amount as is paid by the applicable Obligor in respect thereof. Each prepayment by the Borrower of an Advance denominated in an Eligible Currency shall be made with such Eligible Currency. If a Notice of Prepayment is given by (or on behalf of) the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein unless such notice is rescinded in accordance with this paragraph (a).

&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) <u>Mandatory Prepayments</u>. The Borrower shall prepay the Advances on each Payment Date in the manner and to the extent provided in the Priority of Payments, including as applicable and without limitation, the outstanding Mandatory Amortization Amount, if any, applicable to each applicable Payment Date.

The Borrower shall provide, in each Payment Report, notice of the aggregate amounts of Advances that are to be prepaid on the related Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

&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) <u>Borrowing Base Deficiency Cures</u>. If a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the Borrower may eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency in its entirety in accordance with this <u>Section 2.05(c)</u> and, in any case, within the applicable Cure Period.

&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) To eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Borrower may effect one or more (or any combination thereof) of the following actions (each a "<u>Borrowing Base Deficiency Cure</u>"): (A) deposit into or credit to the Collection Account cash and Eligible Investments, (B) repay Advances (together with all accrued and unpaid costs and expenses of the Agents, the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Administrator, the Securities Intermediary and the Lenders, for which the Borrower has received a reasonably detailed invoice prior to such date of repayment, in each case in respect of the amount so repaid), (C) sell Collateral Loans in accordance with <u>Article X</u>, or (D) during the Reinvestment Period, pledge additional Collateral Loans as Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, no Prepayment Fee shall be required in connection with any prepayment of an Advance, whether made to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency or otherwise.

&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) In connection with the proposed repayment of Advances or pledge of additional Collateral Loans as Collateral pursuant to <u>Section 2.05(c)(i)</u>, the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall deliver in accordance with <u>Section 2.05(a)</u>, (x) to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Custodian), notice of such repayment or pledge and a duly completed Borrowing Base Calculation Statement, updated to the date such repayment or pledge is being made and giving *pro forma* effect to such repayment or pledge, and (y) to the Administrative Agent, if applicable, a description of any Collateral Loans and each Obligor of such Collateral Loan to be pledged.

&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) <u>Additional Prepayment Provisions</u>. Each prepayment pursuant to this <u>Section 2.05</u> shall be subject to <u>Section 2.04(d)</u> and applied to the Advances in accordance with the Lenders' respective Percentages.

Section 2.06 <u>Changes of Commitments</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;(a) <u>Automatic Reduction and Termination</u>. The Commitments of all Lenders shall be automatically reduced to zero at 5:00 p.m. on the Commitment Termination Date.

&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) <u>Optional Termination or Reductions</u>. Prior to the Final Maturity Date, the Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the unused amount of the Facility Amount at any time or from time to time without any fee or penalty, except as specified in <u>Section 2.12(b)</u>, upon not less than two (2) Business Days' prior notice (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Custodian of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date of such termination or reduction and the amount of any such reduction; <u>provided</u> that, any notice received after 3:00 p.m. shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that (i) the amount of any such reduction of the Facility Amount shall be equal to at least $500,000 or an integral multiple of $10,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the remaining unused portion thereof (or, in the case of an Eligible Currency (other than Dollars), no minimum amount or integral multiple), and (ii) no such reduction will reduce the Facility Amount below the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of Advances Outstanding at such time and (y) the Unfunded Reserve Required Amount. Such notice of termination or reduction shall be irrevocable (<u>provided</u> that, any such notice may be conditioned upon the happening or occurrence of a specified event, and thereafter revoked in the event that such specified event does not occur) and shall be effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Administrator and the Collateral Custodian, and shall attach, in the case of a reduction of the Commitments, a Borrowing Base Calculation Statement. Each reduction of Commitments of the Lenders hereunder shall be applied *pro rata* to reduce the respective Commitments of each Lender.

&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) <u>Effect of Termination or Reduction</u>. The Commitments of the Lenders once terminated or reduced may not be reinstated. Each reduction of the Facility Amount pursuant to this <u>Section 2.06</u> shall be applied ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Section 2.07 <u>Maximum Lawful Rate</u>

It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest on the Advances shall not exceed the maximum rate permissible under Applicable Law. Accordingly, anything herein or in any Note to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any interest is charged to, collected from or received from or on behalf of the Borrower by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto in excess of such maximum lawful rate, then the excess of such payment over that maximum shall be applied first to the payment of amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement (other than in respect of principal of and interest on the Advances) and then to the reduction of the outstanding principal amount of the Advances Outstanding.

Section 2.08 <u>Several Obligations</u>

The failure of any Lender to make any Advance to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Advance on such date. None of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, the Securities Intermediary or the Collateral Administrator shall be responsible for the failure of any Lender to make any Advance, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make an Advance required to be made by such other Lender.

Section 2.09 <u>Increased Costs</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;(a) <u>Increased Costs Generally</u>. If any Change in Law 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;(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Affected Person (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the applicable Benchmark); or

&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) subject any Secured Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Non-Excluded Taxes, (B) Taxes described in <u>clauses (b)</u> through <u>(d)</u> of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to any Affected Person of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any Advance) or to increase the cost to, or to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest, fees, compensation or otherwise) or sum received or receivable by, such Affected Person hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, compensation or otherwise), then any such Affected Person shall give the Borrower and the Servicer prompt notice thereof and the Borrower will pay to such Affected Person from time to time after receipt of a written demand by a Responsible Officer of such Affected Person in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such demand. If a Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under this <u>Section 2.09</u>, the Borrower may (but shall not be required to), by notice to such Lender, suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue Advances by reference to the Applicable Reference Rate, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case (x) all Advances of such Lender shall be made or continued by reference to the Base Rate and (y) such Lender shall have no obligation to make any Advances by reference to the Applicable Reference Rate); <u>provided</u> that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation required in accordance with this Agreement.

&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) <u>Capital Requirements</u>. If any Affected Person determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have (but for the operation of this <u>Section 2.09</u>) the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Affected Person's capital or on the capital of such Affected Person's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement (or arising in connection herewith) or the Advances made by such Affected Person to a level below that which such Affected Person or such Affected Person's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Affected Person's policies and the policies of such Affected Person's holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity coverage) by an amount deemed to be material by such Affected Person, then any such Affected Person shall give the Borrower (and the Servicer) prompt notice thereof and the Borrower will pay to such Affected Person in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person or such Affected Person's holding company for any such reduction suffered or charge imposed on the Payment Date after the Borrower's receipt of such demand.

&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) <u>[Reserved]</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;(d) <u>Calculation</u>. In determining any amount provided for in this <u>Section 2.09</u>, the Affected Person may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of any Affected Person making a claim under this <u>Section 2.09</u>, shall submit to the Borrower and the Servicer a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Affected Person setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of such additional or increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such amount shown as due on any such certificate on the next Payment Date after receipt thereof.

&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) <u>Delay in Requests</u>. Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Person to demand compensation pursuant to this <u>Section 2.09</u> shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Person right to demand such compensation; <u>provided</u> that, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Affected Person pursuant to this <u>Section 2.09</u> for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Affected Person notifies the Borrower and the Servicer of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Affected Person's intention to claim compensation therefor; <u>provided further</u> that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

&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) <u>Lending Office</u>. Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the Borrower's obligation to pay additional amounts to a Lender pursuant to <u>clause (a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> of this <u>Section 2.09</u>, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would reduce or obviate the obligations of the Borrower to make future payments of such additional amounts; <u>provided</u> that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no material unreimbursed cost or material legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision.

Section 2.10 <u>Compensation; Breakage Payments</u>.

The Borrower agrees to compensate each Affected Person from time to time, on the Payment Dates (or the applicable date of prepayment) following such Affected Person's written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amounts) in accordance with the Priority of Payments, for all reasonable and documented losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Affected Person to lenders of funds borrowed to make or carry an Advance bearing interest that was computed by reference to the Applicable Reference Rate and any loss sustained by such Affected Person in connection with the re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits), which such Affected Person may sustain: (i) if for any reason (including any failure of a condition precedent set forth in <u>Article III</u> but excluding a default by the applicable Lender) a Borrowing of any Advance bearing interest that was computed by reference to an Applicable Reference Rate by the Borrower does not occur on the Borrowing Date specified therefor in the applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Borrower, (ii) if any payment, prepayment or conversion of any of the Borrower's Advances bearing interest that was computed by reference to the Applicable Reference Rate occurs on a date that is not a Payment Date, and (iii) if any payment or prepayment of any Advance bearing interest that was computed by reference to the Applicable Reference Rate is not made on a Payment Date or pursuant to a Notice of Prepayment given by the Borrower. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10</u> submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Agents, and accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation of such amounts and a description of the basis for requesting such amounts) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.11 <u>Illegality; Inability to Determine Rates</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;(a) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, but subject to <u>Sections 12.01(c)</u>, in the event of a Disruption Event, then the affected Lender shall promptly notify the Agents and the Borrower thereof, and such Lender's obligation to make or maintain Advances hereunder based on the applicable Benchmark shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Advances based on the applicable Benchmark.

&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) Upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to a Lender's suspending its obligation to make or maintain Advances based on the applicable Benchmark pursuant to <u>Section 2.11(a)</u>, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different lending office if such designation would enable such Lender to again make and maintain Advances based on such Benchmark; <u>provided</u> that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no unreimbursed cost or material legal or regulatory disadvantage (as reasonably determined by such Lender), with the object of avoiding future consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such provision.

&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) If, prior to the first day of any Interest Accrual Period or prior to the date of any Advance, as applicable, either (i) the Administrative Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Benchmark for the applicable Advances, or (ii) the Required Lenders determine and notify the Administrative Agent that such Benchmark with respect to such Advances does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advances, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Advances based on such Benchmark shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.

&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 receipt of any notice described in <u>Section 2.11(a)</u> or <u>(c)</u>, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for the making or continuation of an Advance based on the applicable Benchmark or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for an Advance based on the Base Rate. For the avoidance of doubt, no Advances shall be required to be repaid as a result of any circumstance or determination made pursuant to <u>Section 2.11</u>.

Section 2.12 <u>Fees</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;(a) <u>Commitment Fee</u>. On each Payment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Collateral Agent (for the account of the Lenders on a pro rata basis) the Commitment Fee in the amount set forth in the Lender Fee Letter.

&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) <u>Prepayment Fee</u>. If (i) at any time prior to the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Facility Amount is reduced in whole or in part at the option or election of the Borrower and (ii) prior to such date no Approval Failure has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall pay pursuant to the Priority of Payments (for the account of the Lenders on a pro rata basis), a prepayment fee in the amount set forth in the Lender Fee Letter; <u>provided</u> that, no Prepayment Fee shall be due and payable (x) so long as such termination or permanent reduction occurs in connection with a securitization transaction involving all or a portion of the Collateral Loans or (y) in connection with a reduction of the aggregate Commitments due to the termination of the interests of a Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.20</u>. Such Prepayment Fee shall be payable on the date of the termination of this Agreement (in the event this Agreement is terminated in whole) or on the first Payment Date immediately succeeding the reduction of the Facility Amount (in the event the Facility Amount is reduced in part).

&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) <u>Administrative Agent Fees</u>. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as are mutually agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, including the fees set forth in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter.

&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) <u>Collateral Agent, Collateral Administrator, Custodian and Securities Intermediary Fees</u>. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Intermediary such fees as are mutually agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Intermediary, including the fees set forth in the Collateral Administration and Agency Fee Letter. Any reference in this Agreement to an amount of the Collateral Agent's, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Intermediary fees calculated with respect to a period at a per annum rate shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Due Period divided by 360 and shall be based on the Aggregate Principal Balance of the Collateral as of the first day of the related Due Period.

Section 2.13 <u>Rescission or Return of Payment</u>

The Borrower agrees that, if at any time (including after the occurrence of the Final Maturity Date) all or any part of any payment theretofore made by it to any Secured Party or any designee of a Secured Party is or must be rescinded or returned for any reason whatsoever (including the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates), the obligation of the Borrower to make such payment to such Secured Party shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, to the extent that such payment is or must be rescinded or returned, be deemed to have continued in existence and this Agreement and any other applicable Facility Document shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, as to such obligations, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 2.14 <u>Default Interest</u>

During the existence and continuance of an Event of Default arising pursuant to <u>clause (a)</u> or <u>(i)</u> of <u>Section 6.01</u>, at the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, in the case of <u>clause (i)</u> automatically), all Obligations (other than the Advances, where the default rate is reflected in the Applicable Margin) shall bear interest at the Default Rate until rescinded by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders. Interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments.

Section 2.15 <u>Payments Generally</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;(a) All amounts owing and payable to any Secured Party, any Affected Person or any Indemnified Party, in respect of the Advances and other Obligations, including the principal thereof, interest, fees, indemnities, expenses or other amounts payable under this Agreement or any other Facility Document, shall be paid on behalf and at the direction of the Borrower (or the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower) by the Collateral Agent to the applicable recipient in an Eligible Currency in immediately available funds, on each Payment Date in accordance with the Priority of Payments, and all without counterclaim, setoff, deduction, defense, abatement, suspension or deferment. Each Lender shall provide wire instructions to the Borrower and the Collateral Agent. Other than with respect to payments on a Payment Date, payments must be received by the Collateral Agent on or prior to 3:00 p.m. on a Business Day to be remitted by the Collateral Agent on such Business Day to the Lenders; <u>provided</u> that, payments received by the Collateral Agent after 3:00 p.m. on a Business Day will be deemed to have been paid on the next following Business Day. At no time will the Collateral Agent have any duty (express or implied) to fund (or front or advance) any amount owing by the Borrower hereunder.

&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) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all computations of interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed; <u>provided</u> that all computations based on (x) Daily Compounded CORRA shall be based on a year consisting of 365 days and (y) the Base Rate shall be based on a year consisting of 365 days or 366 days, as applicable. In computing interest on any Advance, the date of the making of the Advance shall be included and the date of payment shall be excluded; <u>provided</u> that, if an Advance is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day's Interest shall be paid on such Advance. All computations made by the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Facility Document shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&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) <u>Eligible Currency</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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For purposes of <u>Section 9.01(a)</u>, any amounts on deposit in the Collection Account denominated in any Eligible Currency shall be applied on any Payment Date (i) first, to make payments in such Eligible Currency and (ii) second, to make payments in any other Eligible Currency (*pro rata* based on available amounts from each other Eligible Currency), as converted by the Servicer using the Applicable Conversion Rate; <u>provided</u> that, such payments shall be subject to availability of such funds pursuant to <u>Section 9.01(a)</u>. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association or an affiliate thereof may act as principal, charge fees and earn revenue, and may not provide the best price available with respect to an Eligible Currency.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Servicer shall instruct the Collateral Agent, no later than the Determination Date immediately preceding each Payment Date, to convert amounts on deposit in the Collection Account into Dollars to the extent necessary to make payments pursuant to <u>Section 9.01(a)</u>, as applicable (as determined by the Servicer using the Applicable Conversion Rate).

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any Principal Proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account denominated in an Eligible Currency may be converted by the Servicer into another Eligible Currency on any Business Day (other than a Payment Date) using the Applicable Conversion Rate so long as no Borrowing Base Deficiency exists in respect of either Eligible Currency either prior to and after giving effect to such conversion or, if any such Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, the amount of such Borrowing Base Deficiency is not increased. The Servicer shall provide no less than one (1) Business Day's prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of any such conversion (unless otherwise waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion).

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) If the Collateral Agent receives an instruction to effect any foreign exchange transactions, or cannot comply with instructions without effecting foreign exchange transactions, the Collateral Agent is authorized to enter into spot foreign exchange transactions (each, an "<u>FX Transaction</u>") with the Borrower or the Servicer in connection with the Accounts and may provide such foreign exchange services to the Borrower or the Servicer itself or through any of its Affiliates. The Collateral Agent may convert currency itself or through any of its Affiliates and, in those cases, the Collateral Agent or, as the case may be, such Affiliate through which currency is converted acts as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and may earn revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreads and sales margin, that it will retain for its own account. Any such earned revenue may be based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the FX Transaction made under this Agreement and the rate that the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The Collateral Agent or such Affiliate makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained for any FX Transaction under this Agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or as to the method by which that rate will be determined. The Collateral Agent or its Affiliate, as applicable, may establish rules or limitations concerning any foreign exchange facility made available to the Borrower. Any such FX Transactions will be subject to terms and conditions (the "<u>FX Terms</u>") separately disclosed. In addition, the Collateral Agent may transmit any FX Transaction to a sub-custodian or depository or as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Collateral Agent. In such cases, the relevant FX Transaction may not be processed and priced as described in the applicable FX Terms.

Section 2.16 <u>Defaulting Lenders</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;(a) <u>Adjustments</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender pursuant to <u>Section 2.16(b)</u>, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

&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) <u>Waivers and Amendments</u>. Such Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of "Required Lenders" and <u>Section 12.01</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;(ii) <u>Defaulting Lender Waterfall</u>. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to <u>Article IX</u> or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: <u>first</u>, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; <u>second</u>, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Event of Default exists and is continuing), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; <u>third</u>, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender's potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement; <u>fourth</u>, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; <u>fifth</u>, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that, if an Event of Default exists, such amounts shall be applied to reduce the outstanding Obligations in accordance with the Priority of Payments; and <u>sixth</u>, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; <u>provided</u> that, if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this <u>Section 2.16</u> shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

&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) <u>Certain Fees.</u> No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under <u>Section 2.12(a)</u> for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender.

&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) <u>Defaulting Lender Cure</u>. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances Outstanding to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; <u>provided</u> that, no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; <u>provided further</u> that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.17 <u>Right of Setoff</u>

The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off that the Agents or any Lender may otherwise have, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each of the Agents and the Lenders shall be entitled, at its option, to offset amounts owing by the Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, to the Borrower, in Dollars or in any other currency (irrespective of the place of payment or booking office of the obligation and regardless of whether such amounts are then due to the Borrower), against any amount payable by the Borrower to the Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement that is not paid when due; <u>provided</u> that, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 2.16</u> and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agents a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. For this purpose, any amount owing by the Agents or any Lender to the Borrower may be converted by the Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, into the currency in which the amount payable by the Borrower to the Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement is denominated at the rate of exchange at which the Agents or such Lender, as the case may be, would be able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase the relevant amount of such currency.

Section 2.18 <u>Lending Offices; Changes Thereto</u>

Each Lender may at any time or from time to time designate, by written notice to the Administrative Agent to the extent not already reflected on <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto, one or more domestic or foreign lending offices (which, for this purpose, may include branches or Affiliates of the respective Lender) for the various Advances made by such Lender (including by designating a separate lending office (or Affiliate) to act as such); <u>provided</u> that, for designations made after the Closing Date to the extent such designation shall result in increased costs under <u>Section 2.09</u> or Additional Amounts under <u>Section 12.03</u> in excess of those which would be charged in the absence of the designation of a different lending office (including a different Affiliate of the respective Lender), then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs or Additional Amounts (although the Borrower, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay the costs or additional amounts which would apply in the absence of such designation and any subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective designation). Each lending office and Affiliate of any Lender designated as provided above shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be treated in the same manner as the respective Lender (and shall be entitled to all indemnities and similar provisions in respect of its acting as such hereunder) and any designation of a lending office pursuant to this <u>Section 2.18</u> shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay any Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.19 <u>Recourse Against Certain Parties</u>

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the Borrower (and not any of its Affiliates or any other party) payable solely from the Collateral in accordance with the Priority of Payments and, following realization of the Collateral, and application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with the Priority of Payments and, subject to <u>Section 2.13</u>, all obligations of and any claims against the Borrower hereunder or in connection herewith after such realization shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. No recourse shall be had against any officer, director, employee, shareholder, member, manager, agent, partner, principal or incorporator of the Borrower or their respective successors or assigns for any amounts payable under this Agreement. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 2.19</u> shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any Indebtedness or obligation evidenced by this Agreement until such Collateral has been realized. It is further understood that the foregoing provisions of this <u>Section 2.19</u> shall not limit the right of any Person to name the Borrower as a party defendant in any proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under this Agreement, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained) enforced against the Borrower.

Section 2.20 <u>Replacement of Lenders</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;(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that (i) any Affected Person shall request reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to <u>Section 2.09</u>, (ii) the Borrower shall be required to reimburse any Affected Person for any Non-Excluded Taxes or pay any Additional Amounts to any Affected Person or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Affected Person pursuant to <u>Section 12.03</u>, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (iv) any Lender does not give or approve any consent, waiver or amendment that requires the approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof or (v) during the Reinvestment Period, has become the subject of a Bail-In Action (any such Lender under <u>clause (i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u>, <u>(iii)</u>, <u>(iv)</u> or <u>(v)</u> above that is not (x) Citibank or (y) solely in the case of <u>clause (iv)</u>, either (I) a Required Lender or (II) Affiliated with the Administrative Agent if at such time the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates hold more than 50.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Advances Outstanding, a "<u>Potential Terminated Lender</u>"), the Borrower, at its sole expense and effort, shall be permitted, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and such Potential Terminated Lender, to require such Potential Terminated Lender to (x) assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, <u>Section 12.06</u>), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to <u>Sections 2.09</u> and <u>12.03</u>) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Facility Documents to an assignee permitted pursuant to <u>Section 12.06</u> (a "<u>Replacement Lender</u>") that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such Lender accepts such assignment) or (y) terminate all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Facility Documents and reduce the aggregate Commitments outstanding; <u>provided</u> that:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) such Potential Terminated Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Facility Documents (subject to <u>Section 2.17</u>) from the Replacement Lender (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under <u>Section 2.09</u> or <u>12.03</u>, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) in the case of an assignment based on <u>clause (iv)</u> above, the Replacement Lender shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

&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) Each Potential Terminated Lender hereby agrees to take all actions reasonably necessary, at the sole expense of the Borrower, to permit a Replacement Lender to succeed to its rights and obligations hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of any such assignment to a Replacement Lender, (i) such Replacement Lender shall become a "Lender" hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Facility Documents, (ii) the applicable Potential Terminated Lender shall have no further Commitment hereunder (such Person, a "<u>Terminated Lender</u>") and (iii) such Replacement Lender shall have a Commitment in the amount not less than the Terminated Lender's Commitment assumed by it.

&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) No Lender shall be required to make any assignment or delegation pursuant to <u>Section 2.20(a)</u> if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 2.21 <u>Contractual Currency</u>

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, if any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the currency in which a payment is required by this Agreement is to be made by the Borrower (the "<u>Contractual Currency</u>") is rendered:

&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) for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement; or

&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) in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in the foregoing <u>clause (a)</u>;

the recipient of such payment, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which the recipient of such payment is entitled pursuant to the judgment or order, will be entitled to receive promptly from the Borrower the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual Currency received by the recipient of such payment as a consequence of sums being paid in such other currency if such shortfall arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purposes of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which the recipient of such payment is able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency received into the Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by the recipient of such payment. The term "rate of exchange" includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into the Contractual Currency.

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the obligations in this <u>Section 2.21</u> constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement and any related document, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the recipient of such payment and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement or any related document. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower hereby waives the right to invoke any defense of payment impossibility.

Section 2.22 <u>Increase in Facility Amount</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;(a) Subject to compliance with the terms of this <u>Section 2.22</u>, from time to time the Borrower may elect one or more increases to the Facility Amount (each such increase, a "<u>Facility Increase</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;(b) Each Facility Increase shall be subject to the following 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

Section 6.04 <u>Sales</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;(a) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer recognizes that an Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Collateral and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof. Each of the Borrower and the Servicer acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of being a private sale.

&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) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer further agrees that a breach of any of their covenants contained in this <u>Section 6.04</u> will cause irreparable injury to the Agents, that the Agents have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this <u>Section 6.04</u> shall be specifically enforceable against the Borrower and the Servicer, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that there has been a Payment in Full.

&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) Pursuant to the UCC, each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby specifically agrees (x) that it shall not raise any objection to a Secured Party's purchase of the Collateral (through bidding on the obligations or otherwise) and (y) that a foreclosure sale conducted in conformity with the principles set forth in various no action letters promulgated by the SEC staff (1) shall be considered to be a "public" sale for purposes of the UCC and (2) shall be considered to be commercially reasonable notwithstanding that a Secured Party purchases the Collateral at such a sale.

&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) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees that the Collateral Agent shall not have any general duty or obligation to make any effort to obtain or pay any particular price for any Collateral sold by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement. The Collateral Agent may, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, among other things, accept the first bid received, or decide to approach or not approach any potential purchasers. Each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby agrees that the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) shall have the right to conduct, and shall not incur any liability as a result of, the sale of any Collateral, or any part thereof, at any sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner, it being agreed by the parties hereto that some or all of the Collateral is or may be of one or more types that threaten to decline speedily in value. The Borrower and the Servicer hereby waive any claims against the Secured Parties arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any of the Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Borrower's obligations under the Agreement, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first bid received and does not offer any Collateral to more than one bidder. Without in any way limiting the Collateral Agent's right to conduct a foreclosure sale in any manner which is considered commercially reasonable, each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby agrees that any foreclosure sale conducted in accordance with the following provisions shall be considered a commercially reasonable sale, and each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby irrevocably waives any right to contest any such sale conducted in accordance with the following provisions:

&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) the Collateral Agent conducts such foreclosure sale in the State of New York;

&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) such foreclosure sale is conducted in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York; 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;(iii) not more than thirty (30) days before, and not less than two (2) Business Days in advance of such foreclosure sale, the Collateral Agent notifies the Borrower and the Servicer at the address set forth herein of the time and place of such foreclosure sale.

&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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Facility Document, upon the declaration that the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all Interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Facility Document be immediately due and payable (or the occurrence thereof), the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower or the Servicer designated by the Servicer (such parties collectively in such capacity, the "<u>Purchasing Parties</u>") may purchase the Collateral, in whole or in part, (a) at a purchase price determined by the Borrower but in any event not less than the sum of (i) the amount of the Obligations outstanding *plus* (ii) all other amounts owing or payable to the Secured Parties by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Facility Document and (b) (i) paying or, in the case of the Servicer, causing the Borrower to pay, such amount to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties using the proceeds from such purchase not later than 5:00 p.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day following the declaration or automatic occurrence of the acceleration of the Loans (or such later deadline as the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may agree with the Borrower) or (ii) (A) delivering to the Administrative Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day following the declaration or automatic occurrence of the acceleration of the Loans (or such later deadline as the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may agree with the Borrower) a written report that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion showing a projected purchase of the Collateral at such purchase price based on capital calls made by the Parent on its investors that will be contributed to the Borrower and be available for purchasing the Collateral at such purchase price by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of such notice by the Borrower and (B) paying such amount to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties using the proceeds from such capital call not later than 5:00 p.m. on the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of such notice by the Borrower, and thereafter in each case of (i) and (ii), the Purchasing Parties' right of first refusal shall terminate (the period from declaration or automatic occurrence of the acceleration of the Loans to the expiration of such right of first refusal being referred to herein as the "<u>Standstill Period</u>"). For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and any Lender shall assert any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral, including any right described in <u>Section 6.02(b)</u> or <u>Section 7.03</u>, or cause the removal of the Servicer pursuant to <u>Section 14.08</u>, or cause the liquidation or disposition of the Collateral Loans to occur, in each case during the Standstill Period.

Any and all actions under this <u>Article VII</u> in respect of the Collateral shall be without any recourse to, or representation or warranty by any Secured Party and shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

Section 7.03 <u>Rights and Remedies</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;(a) The Collateral Agent (for itself and on behalf of the other Secured Parties) shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC and other Applicable Law. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and following the Standstill Period, the Collateral Agent or its designees shall, acting solely at the written direction of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders acting through the Administrative Agent, (i) instruct the Borrower to deliver any or all of the Collateral, the Related Documents and any other document relating to the Collateral to the Collateral Agent or its designees and otherwise give all instructions for the Borrower regarding the Collateral; (ii) sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, all without judicial process or proceedings; (iii) take control of the Proceeds of any such Collateral; (iv) subject to the provisions of the applicable Related Documents, exercise any consensual or voting rights in respect of the Collateral; (v) release, make extensions, discharges, exchanges or substitutions for, or surrender all or any part of the Collateral; (vi) enforce the Borrower's rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral; (vii) institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, any of the Collateral; (viii) require that the Borrower promptly take all actions necessary to cause the liquidation of the Collateral in order to pay all amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations, in accordance with the terms of the Related Documents; (ix) redeem or withdraw or cause the Borrower to redeem or withdraw any asset of the Borrower to pay amounts due and payable in respect of the Obligations; (x) make copies of all books, records and documents relating to the Collateral; and (xi) endorse the name of the Borrower upon any items of payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim in bankruptcy against an account debtor. In the absence of written direction of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (acting through the Administrative Agent), the Collateral Agent shall take no action. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable to the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or any other party for any action taken or omitted to be taken at the direction of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (acting through the Administrative Agent) or any inaction in the absence thereof.

&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 Borrower hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and following the Standstill Period, at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (acting through the Administrative Agent), it shall execute all documents and agreements which are necessary or appropriate to have the Collateral assigned to the Collateral Agent or its designee. For purposes of taking the actions described in <u>clause (a)</u> and <u>(b)</u> of this <u>Section 7.03,</u> the Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact (which appointment being coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Obligations are Paid in Full), with power of substitution, in the name of the Collateral Agent or in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, for the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the cost and expense of the Borrower and, except as expressly required by Applicable Law, without notice to the Borrower. Such appointment shall in no way impose upon the Collateral Agent any obligation to take any such action unless specifically directed to do so and subject to the receipt of an indemnity from the Lenders reasonably satisfactory to it.

Section 7.04 <u>Remedies Cumulative</u>

Each right, power, and remedy of the Agents and the other Secured Parties, or any of them, as provided for in this Agreement or in the other Facility Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in the other Facility Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Agents or any other Secured Party of any one or more of such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by such Persons of any or all such other rights, powers, or remedies.

Section 7.05 <u>Related Documents</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;(a) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer hereby agrees that, to the extent not expressly prohibited by the terms of the Related Documents, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and following the Standstill Period, it shall (i) upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, promptly forward to the Administrative Agent all information and notices which it receives under or in connection with the Related Documents relating to the Collateral, and (ii) upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, act and refrain from acting in respect of any request, act, decision or vote under or in connection with the Related Documents relating to the Collateral only in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent (in its reasonable discretion).

&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 Borrower agrees that, to the extent the same shall be in the Borrower's possession, it will hold all Related Documents relating to the Collateral in trust for the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, and upon request of the Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (and following the Standstill Period) or as otherwise provided herein, promptly deliver the same to the Collateral Agent or its designee. In addition, in accordance with this Agreement, promptly (and in any event within seven (7) Business Days) following its acquisition of any Collateral Loan, the Borrower shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Collateral Custodian, the Required Loan Documents (to the extent in the possession of the Servicer or the Borrower, or otherwise available to the Servicer on the relevant deal site) to be further credited to the Collateral Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, delivery of the Required Loan Documents shall be satisfied if the Borrower provides Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian with access to the Borrower's data room containing the Required Loan Documents within the time set forth in this clause.

Section 7.06 <u>Borrower Remains Liable</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;(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Borrower shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements to which it is a party included in and relating to the Collateral (including the Related Documents) to the extent set forth therein, and shall perform all of its duties and obligations under such contracts and agreements to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, and (ii) the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its rights hereunder shall not release the Borrower from any of its duties or obligations under any such contracts or agreements included in the Collateral.

&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) No obligation or liability of the Borrower is intended to be assumed by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party under or as a result of this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including under any Related Document or any other agreement or document that relates to Collateral and, to the maximum extent permitted under provisions of Law, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties expressly disclaim any such assumption.

Section 7.07 <u>Protection of Collateral</u>

The Borrower shall from time to time execute and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto and file or authorize the filing of all such UCC-1 financing statements and continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary to secure the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder and to:

&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) grant security more effectively on all or any portion of the Collateral;

&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) maintain, preserve and perfect any grant of security made or to be made by this Agreement including the first-priority nature of the Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) or carry out more effectively the purposes hereof;

&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) perfect or protect the validity of any grant made or to be made by this Agreement (including any and all actions necessary or desirable as a result of changes in Applicable Law);

&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) enforce any of the Collateral or other instruments or property included in the Collateral;

&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) preserve and defend title to the Collateral and the rights therein of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties in the Collateral against the claims of all third parties; 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;(f) pay or cause to be paid any and all Taxes levied or assessed upon all or any part of the Collateral (other than Taxes which are being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP).

If the Borrower fails to prepare and file any instrument or to take any action required pursuant to this <u>Section 7.07</u> within ten (10) Business Days after the Administrative Agent's request and written instruction therefor, the Borrower hereby designates the Collateral Agent as its agent to prepare and file such instrument and take such action required pursuant to this <u>Section 7.07</u>. The Borrower further authorizes, but does not obligate, the Collateral Agent to file UCC-1 financing statements and continuation statements therefor, that name the Borrower as debtor and the Collateral Agent as secured party and that describes "all assets in which the debtor now or hereafter has rights" (or words of similar effect) as the Collateral in which the Collateral Agent has a grant of security hereunder. Such designation shall not impose upon the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, or release or diminish, the Borrower's obligations under this <u>Section 7.07</u>.

Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, not earlier than six (6) months and not later than one (1) month prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date of filing of any financing statement filed pursuant to this Agreement authorize, deliver and file or cause to be filed an appropriate continuation statement with respect to each such financing statement.

Each Covered Account shall be established and maintained under the Account Control Agreement with a Qualified Institution; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, USBNA, in its capacity as Securities Intermediary shall not be required to satisfy the definition of "Qualified Institution" so long as the assets credited to each Covered Account are deposited and held by an institution that meets such requirements. Any Covered Account may contain any number of subaccounts for the convenience of the Collateral Agent or as required by the Servicer for convenience in administering the Covered Accounts or the Collateral.

Section 8.02 <u>Collection Account</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;(a) In accordance with this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish at the Collateral Custodian two (2) Dollar-denominated segregated non-interest bearing accounts in the name of the Borrower, one of which will be designated the "<u>USD Interest Collection Account</u>" and one of which designated the "<u>USD Principal Collection Account</u>" (together with the USD Interest Collection Account, the "<u>USD Collection Account</u>"), which shall be maintained by the Borrower with the Collateral Custodian in accordance with the Account Control Agreement and which shall be subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent. In accordance with this Agreement and the Account Control Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, establish at the Collateral Custodian (i) CAD-denominated segregated non-interest bearing accounts, one of which will be designated the "<u>CAD Interest Collection Account</u>" and one of which designated the "<u>CAD Principal Collection Account</u>" (together with the CAD Interest Collection Account, the "<u>CAD Collection Account</u>"); (ii) EUR-denominated segregated non-interest bearing accounts, one of which will be designated the "<u>EUR Interest Collection Account</u>" and one of which designated the "<u>EUR Principal Collection Account</u>" (together with the EUR Interest Collection Account, the "<u>EUR Collection Account</u>") and (iii) GBP-denominated segregated non-interest bearing accounts, one of which will be designated the "<u>GBP Interest Collection Account</u>" and one of which designated the "<u>GBP Principal Collection Account</u>" (together with the GBP Interest Collection Account, the "<u>GBP Collection Account</u>"), each of which shall be maintained by the Borrower with the Collateral Custodian in accordance with the Account Control Agreement and which shall be subject to the Lien of the Collateral Agent. The Interest Collection Account and the Principal Collection Account shall collectively be the "<u>Collection Account</u>". In accordance with the Account Control Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall provide notice to the Borrower, the Collateral Manager and the Administrative Agent upon the opening of each of the non-Dollar accounts comprising the Collection Account. The Collateral Agent shall from time to time deposit into the applicable Interest Collection Account promptly upon receipt thereof all Interest Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent and identified as such by the Servicer. The Collateral Agent shall from time to time deposit into the applicable Principal Collection Account promptly upon receipt thereof all Principal Proceeds (unless simultaneously reinvested in additional Collateral Loans in accordance with <u>Article X</u> or required to be deposited in the Unfunded Reserve Account pursuant to <u>Section 8.05)</u> received by the Collateral Agent and identified as such by the Servicer. All funds deposited from time to time in the Collection Account pursuant to this Agreement shall be held on behalf of the Collateral Agent as part of the Collateral and shall be applied to the purposes herein provided. For the avoidance of doubt, funds on deposit in each Eligible Currency Account will remain uninvested.

&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) At any time when reinvestment is permitted pursuant to <u>Article X</u>, the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower (subject to compliance with <u>Article X)</u> may, by delivery of written instructions (which may be a .pdf or similar file sent by email) of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator, direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such instructions the Collateral Agent shall, withdraw funds on deposit in the applicable Principal Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds (together with accrued interest received with regard to any Collateral Loan and Interest Proceeds but only to the extent used to pay for accrued interest on an additional Collateral Loan) and reinvest such funds in additional Collateral Loans in accordance with such instructions. If at any time the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Reserve Account is less than the Unfunded Reserve Required Amount, the Servicer (on behalf of the Borrower) may, by delivery of written instructions (which may be a .pdf or similar file sent by email) of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Administrator, direct the Collateral Agent to, and upon receipt of such instructions the Collateral Agent shall, withdraw funds on deposit in the applicable Principal Collection Account representing Principal Proceeds and remit such funds as so directed by the Servicer to meet the Borrower's funding obligations in respect of Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans or Revolving Collateral Loans.

The only permitted deposits to or withdrawals from the applicable Unfunded Reserve Account shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

On the Acquisition Date of any Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan or Revolving Collateral Loan and on any Payment Date, the Servicer may instruct the Collateral Agent to withdraw funds from the applicable Collection Account for deposit into the applicable Unfunded Reserve Account, to the extent required so that the amount of funds on deposit in the Unfunded Reserve Account is equal to the Unfunded Reserve Required Amount.

During the Reinvestment Period, fundings of Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans and Revolving Collateral Loans shall be made using, first, amounts on deposit in the applicable Unfunded Reserve Account (in an amount equal to the amount on deposit therein with respect to such Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan or Revolving Collateral Loan), then available Principal Proceeds and <u>finally</u>, borrowing of Advances under <u>Section 2.01</u>.

During the Amortization Period, Principal Proceeds received by the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) in respect of Revolving Collateral Loans (to the extent not accompanied by a permanent reduction in the related commitments) shall be deposited by the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) into the applicable Unfunded Reserve Account to the extent the amount on deposit in the Unfunded Reserve Account is less than the Unfunded Reserve Required Amount.

Amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Reserve Account will be available solely to cover drawdowns on Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loans and Revolving Collateral Loans; <u>provided</u> that (x) at any time during the Reinvestment Period if no Borrowing Base Deficiency would result and (y) thereafter, to the extent that the aggregate amount of funds on deposit therein at any time exceeds the Unfunded Reserve Required Amount, the Servicer (or, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent) may instruct the Collateral Agent to remit any amounts on deposit therein (in the case of <u>clause (x)</u>), or, in the case of <u>clause (y)</u>, such excess to the Collection Account.

Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise herein, all interest, gain, loss and other income from such investments shall be deposited, credited or charged (as applicable) in and to the Collection Account. Absent its timely receipt of such instruction from the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, in accordance with the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall not be under an obligation to invest (or pay interest on) funds held hereunder. The Collateral Agent shall in no way be liable for any insufficiency in a Covered Account resulting from any loss relating to any such investment.

&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 Collateral Agent agrees to give the Borrower and the Servicer prompt notice if any Covered Account or any funds on deposit in any Covered Account, or otherwise to the credit of a Covered Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process. All Covered Accounts shall remain at all times with the Collateral Custodian.

&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) The Collateral Administrator shall supply, in a timely fashion, to the Borrower and the Servicer any information regularly maintained by the Collateral Administrator in the Collateral Database that the Borrower or the Servicer may from time to time reasonably request with respect to the Collateral Loans, the Covered Accounts and the other Collateral and provide any other requested information reasonably available to the Collateral Administrator and required to be provided by <u>Section 8.09</u> or to permit the Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder or the Borrower's obligations hereunder that have been delegated to the Servicer.

The Payment Report shall contain the information set forth in <u>Schedule 3</u> hereto.

In addition, the Borrower shall provide (or the Servicer on the Borrower's behalf shall provide) in each Payment Report a statement notifying of any amendment, modification or waiver under any Related Document for each Collateral Loan that constitutes a Material Modification that became effective since the immediately preceding Payment Report (or, in respect of the first Payment Report, from the Closing Date) unless previously disclosed under <u>Section 5.01(d)(vii)</u>, <u>5.03(e)</u> or <u>8.09(a)</u>.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a trade ticket or other confirmation of trade in respect of such sale of Collateral delivered by the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian shall constitute certification as to the matters described in this <u>Section 8.10</u>, and the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Custodian may conclusively rely on such certification.

&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 Collateral Custodian shall, upon the receipt of a certificate of the Borrower, by delivery of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Servicer, deliver any Collateral in accordance with such certificate, and execute such documents or instruments as are delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower and reasonably necessary to release or cause to be released such security from the Lien of this Agreement, which is set for any mandatory call or redemption or payment in full to the appropriate paying agent on or before the date set for such call, redemption or payment, in each case against receipt of the call or redemption price or payment in full thereof.

&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) As provided in <u>Section 8.02(a)</u>, the Collateral Agent (and its designees) shall deposit any proceeds received by it from the disposition of a Collateral Loan in the Collection Account as instructed by the Servicer, unless simultaneously applied to the purchase of additional Collateral Loans as permitted under and in accordance with the requirements of this <u>Article VIII</u> and <u>Article X</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;(e) Any security, Collateral Loan or amounts that are released pursuant to <u>Section 8.10(a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> shall be automatically released from the Lien of this Agreement.

The fees of such Independent Accountants and any successor shall be payable by the Borrower.

&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 Servicer shall cause the Independent Accountants to furnish to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) within 120 days following the end of each fiscal year beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2025 (each such date, a "<u>Report Date</u>"), a report relating to a selection of two (2) Monthly Reports and Payment Reports (in each case, as agreed by the Servicer and the Administrative Agent), each delivered during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding such Report Date, in each case, to the effect that such firm has applied certain agreed-upon procedures approved by the Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date (it being understood that the Borrower shall cause such Independent Accountants to comply with updates to such agreed-upon procedures from time to time in response to reasonable requests of the Administrative Agent to the extent the Borrower is able in good faith to cause such compliance without undue burden or expense) with respect to such reports from the related period and, with respect to the Servicer's performance hereunder, to assist the Administrative Agent in determining that the Monthly Reports and Payment Reports for the related period were prepared in compliance with this Agreement, except for such exceptions as it believes to be immaterial and such other exceptions as will be set forth in such firm's report (including, with respect to any such exceptions, an explanation of how each such exception arose and reflecting the input/explanation of the Servicer thereto).

**SALE OF COLLATERAL LOANS;<br> PURCHASE OF ADDITIONAL COLLATERAL LOANS**

Section 10.01 <u>Sales of Collateral Loans</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;(a) <u>Sales of Collateral Loans</u>. Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver, by the Administrative Agent) of the conditions specified in <u>Sections 10.04</u>, the Borrower may, but will not be required to, sell any Collateral Loan if such sale meets each of the requirements set forth below:

&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) no Default or Event of Default is continuing or would result upon giving effect thereto, to all other sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions of Collateral Loans, unless such Default or Event of Default will be cured upon giving effect to such transactions and the application of the proceeds thereof; <u>provided</u> that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this <u>clause (i)</u> shall not prohibit (x) any sale of a Collateral Loan the trade date of which was prior to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, and the settlement date of which is scheduled to occur on a date following such Default or Event of Default, or (y) any sale of a Collateral Loan at a price at least equal to par;

&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) in the case of any sale with respect to which the trade date falls in the Reinvestment Period, upon giving effect thereto, to all other sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions of Collateral Loans and to the application of the proceeds thereof, each of the Collateral Quality Tests is satisfied or, if not satisfied, maintained or improved;

&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) such sale is made for Cash; <u>provided</u> that, on any date of determination, subject to <u>Section 10.04</u>, the Borrower may distribute to the Parent one or more Collateral Loans with an Aggregate Asset Value as of such date not in excess of the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments that the Borrower would be permitted to make on such date in accordance with Section 4 of the Lender Fee Letter;

&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) no adverse selection procedures were employed by the Borrower or the Servicer in selecting such Collateral Loan for sale; 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;(v) upon giving effect thereto, to all other sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions of Collateral Loans and to the application of the proceeds thereof, the Borrowing Base Test is satisfied or, if the Borrowing Base Test was not satisfied immediately prior to such sales or purchases, the level of noncompliance would be maintained or improved as a result therefrom.

The restrictions in <u>Sections 10.01(a)(i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u>, <u>(iii)</u> and <u>(v)</u> shall not apply to sales of Defaulted Collateral Loans or Ineligible Collateral Loans (but, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 4 of the Lender Fee Letter shall apply at all times).

&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) <u>Sales of Equity Securities</u>. The Borrower may sell any Equity Security at any time without restriction, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the sale of any Equity Security, regardless of price, within forty-five (45) days of receipt if such Equity Security constitutes Margin Stock, unless such sale is prohibited by Applicable Law or contract, in which case such Equity Security should be sold as soon as such sale is permitted by Applicable Law or contract. The Borrower may also sell any Ineligible Collateral Loan at any time unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (but otherwise without restriction as long as such sales are for fair market value and arms' length terms).

&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) <u>Mandatory Amortization Amounts</u>. If (i) on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower has not made all required payments of Mandatory Amortization Amounts pursuant to <u>Section 2.05(b)</u> and (ii) on or after the twenty-one (21) month anniversary of the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have not agreed on a payment schedule, then the Borrower shall sell Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and use all proceeds to repay the Advances Outstanding.

&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) <u>Application of Proceeds of Sales</u>. The Servicer on behalf of the Borrower shall deposit the proceeds of any sale effected pursuant to this <u>Section 10.01</u> into the Collection Account for disbursement in accordance with <u>Section 9.01</u> or reinvestment in additional Collateral Loans in accordance with <u>Section 10.02</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;(e) <u>Sale of Participations</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, the sale of any Collateral Loan or other loan may be effected in the form of the sale of a participation interest rather than an outright transfer if (i) in the judgment of the Servicer in accordance with the Servicing Standard, such a sale via participation is necessary to maximize the returns to the Borrower in respect of such sale or is otherwise appropriate pending ultimate elevation of such participation to an outright assignment and (ii) the participation agreement either (A) does not impose any contractual liability on the Borrower or (B) is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

Section 10.02 <u>Purchase of Additional Collateral Loans</u>

During the Reinvestment Period, the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower may, if the conditions specified in this <u>Section 10.02</u> and <u>Section 10.05</u> are met (or waived by the Administrative Agent), invest Principal Proceeds (and accrued interest received with respect to any Collateral Loan to the extent used to pay for accrued interest on additional Collateral Loans) in additional Collateral Loans; <u>provided</u> that, no Collateral Loan may be purchased unless each of the following conditions is satisfied as of the date such Collateral Loan is added to the Collateral:

&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) such obligation is an Eligible Collateral Loan;

&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) upon giving effect thereto, to all other sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions of Collateral Loans and to the application of the proceeds thereof, the Borrowing Base Test is satisfied (or, if not satisfied immediately prior to such sale or purchase, is maintained or improved);

&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) upon giving effect thereto, to all other sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions of Collateral Loans and to the application of the proceeds thereof, each Collateral Quality Test is satisfied or, if it is not satisfied, maintained or improved;

&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) no Default or Event of Default is continuing or would result upon giving effect thereto (unless a Default is continuing that would be cured following the application of such purchase), to all other sales or purchases previously or substantially concurrently committed to and to all substantially concurrent substitutions; <u>provided</u> that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this <u>clause (iv)</u> shall not prohibit any purchase of a Collateral Loan, the trade date of which was prior to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, and the settlement date of which is scheduled to occur on a date following such Default or Event of Default; 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;(v) such Principal Proceeds shall be denominated in the same Eligible Currency (or converted to such Eligible Currency pursuant to <u>Section 2.15(c)(iii)</u>) as the Collateral Loan acquired.

Section 10.03 <u>Substitution and Transfer of Loans</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;(a) <u>Substitutions</u>. The Borrower may replace any Collateral Loan with another Collateral Loan (a "<u>Substitute Loan</u>"), subject to the satisfaction (or waiver, by the Administrative Agent) of the conditions set forth in <u>clause (b)</u> below and in <u>Section 10.05</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;(b) <u>Conditions to Substitution</u>. No substitution of a Collateral Loan with a Substitute Loan shall occur unless each of the following conditions is satisfied (or waived by the Administrative Agent) as of the date of such substitution, after giving effect to such substitution, all other substitutions of Collateral Loans occurring substantially concurrently and all sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to:

&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) such Substitute Loan is an Eligible Collateral Loan;

&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) each Collateral Quality Test is satisfied or, if it is not satisfied, maintained or improved;

&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 sum of the Asset Values of such Substitute Loans shall be equal to or greater than the sum of the Asset Values of the Collateral Loans being substituted for;

&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) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (unless a Default is continuing that would be cured following the application of such purchase) (before or after giving effect to such substitution, all other substitutions of Collateral Loans occurring substantially concurrently and all sales or purchases of Collateral Loans previously or substantially concurrently committed to);

&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) the Borrower (or the Servicer acting on its behalf) shall notify the Administrative Agent of any amount to be deposited into the Collection Account in connection with any such substitution and shall deliver to the Collateral Custodian the Required Loan Documents (which may be delivered by providing access to a data room in accordance with this Agreement) for any such Substitute Loan;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) upon confirmation of the delivery of a Substitute Loan for each applicable Collateral Loan being substituted for (the date of such confirmation or delivery, the "<u>Retransfer Date</u>"), each applicable Collateral Loan being substituted for shall be removed from the Collateral and the applicable Substitute Loan(s) shall be included in the Collateral. On the Retransfer Date of a Collateral Loan, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to release and transfer to the Borrower, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in, to and under such Collateral Loan being substituted for. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute such documents and instruments of transfer as may be prepared by the Servicer, on behalf of the Borrower, and take such other actions as shall reasonably be requested by the Borrower to effect the release and transfer of such Collateral Loan pursuant to this <u>Section 10.03</u>; and

**THE AGENTS**

Section 11.01 <u>Authorization and Action</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;(a) Each Lender (and, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the other Facility Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, subject to the terms hereof. No Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Facility Documents to which it is a party or any fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties or obligations or liabilities on the part of such Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other Facility Document to which such Agent is a party (if any) as duties on its part to be performed or observed. No Agent shall have or be construed to have any other duties or responsibilities in respect of this Agreement or any other Facility Document and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other Facility Documents, no Agent shall be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or, with respect to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent); <u>provided</u> that, such Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes such Agent, in its judgment, to personal liability, cost or expense or which is contrary to this Agreement, the other Facility Documents or Applicable Law, or would be, in its judgment, contrary to its duties hereunder, under any other Facility Document or under Applicable Law. Each Lender agrees that in any instance in which the Facility Documents provide that the Administrative Agent's consent may not be unreasonably withheld, provide for the exercise of the Administrative Agent's reasonable discretion, or provide to a similar effect, it shall not in its instructions (or by refusing to provide instruction) to the Administrative Agent withhold its consent or exercise its discretion in an unreasonable manner.

&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) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any officer, agent or representative thereof shall be personally liable for any action taken by any such Person in accordance with any notice given by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Facility Document even if, at the time such action is taken by any such Person, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders or Persons purporting to be the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders are not entitled to give such notice, unless a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent shall have actual knowledge of the same or unless the Collateral Agent acts in breach of its standard of care hereunder. If any dispute or disagreement shall arise as to the allocation of any sum of money received by the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Facility Document, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver such sum to a court of competent jurisdiction and therein commence an action for interpleader.

&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) If in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, it may request written instructions from the Administrative Agent as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Agent does not receive such instructions within five (5) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions received after such five (5) Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions.

&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) <u>Instructions to Collateral Agent</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;(i) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action unless it has such instruction (in the form of Proper Instructions) from the Borrower (or the Servicer on the Borrower's behalf) the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, as it reasonably deems necessary. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any action (or forbearance from action) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Facility Document or taken pursuant to any Proper Instruction of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, except in the case of the Collateral Agent's own gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.

&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) Whenever the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to receive or obtain any communications or information pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement, it shall be entitled to receive the same in writing, in form, content and medium reasonably acceptable to it and otherwise in accordance with any applicable term of this Agreement; and whenever any report or other information is required to be produced or distributed by the Collateral Agent it shall be in form, content and medium reasonably acceptable to it and the Borrower, and otherwise in accordance with any applicable term of this Agreement.

&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) In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Agent may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, request instructions from the Servicer and may, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, request instructions from the Administrative Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received instructions from the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Administrative Agent or the Servicer, except in the case of the Collateral Agent's own gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.

&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) <u>General Standards of Care for the Collateral Agent</u>. Notwithstanding any terms herein contained to the contrary, the acceptance by the Collateral Agent of its appointment hereunder is expressly subject to the following terms, which shall govern and apply to each of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (whether or not so stated therein):

&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) The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of any fact, claim or demand with respect hereto unless actually known by a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent or unless (and then only to the extent) received in writing by the Collateral Agent and specifically referencing this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall not be charged with knowledge of any notices, documents, instruments or reports delivered or prepared by the Collateral Administrator. The Collateral Agent is not responsible for or chargeable with knowledge of any terms or conditions contained in any other agreement to which it is not a party referred to herein. It is hereby acknowledged that the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for filing or recording any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted by any Person under any Facility Document or Related Document, including determining whether the conditions of "Deliver" have been satisfied.

&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) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds, or to take any action (or forbear from action) hereunder which might in its judgment involve any expense or any financial or other liability unless it shall be furnished with acceptable indemnification. Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Agent to commence, prosecute or defend legal proceedings in any instance, whether on behalf of the Borrower or on its own behalf or otherwise, with respect to any matter arising hereunder, or relating to this Agreement or the services contemplated hereby.

&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 permissive right of the Collateral Agent to take any action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

&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) The Collateral Agent may act or exercise its duties or powers hereunder through agents or attorneys-in-fact, and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for the actions or omissions of any such agent or attorney-in-fact appointed with reasonable due care.

&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) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to determine the Interest Rate or whether an asset is an Eligible Collateral Loan or otherwise satisfies any eligibility requirements hereunder. None of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Administrator shall be under any obligation to (i) monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any Benchmark or Benchmark Replacement, the Prime Rate, Federal Funds Rate or other Base Rate, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Transition Start Date or Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or determine whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate have been satisfied, (iii) select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) determine whether or what Conforming Changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing. None of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Administrator shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Agreement or other Facility Document to the extent such inability, failure or delay is a result of the unavailability of any Applicable Reference Rate (or other applicable rate) and absence of a designated Benchmark Replacement, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Agreement or other Facility Document and reasonably required for the performance of such duties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) In no case shall the Collateral Agent be deemed to have knowledge of a Default or an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer thereof has received written notice of such Default or Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) If the Collateral Agent has been requested or directed by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to take any action pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Facility Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or such Facility Document in the manner so requested unless it shall have been provided indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred by it in compliance with or in performing such request or direction. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to take any action to exercise or enforce any power, right or remedy related to foreclosure on the Collateral available to it under this Agreement or any other Facility Document or any Related Document unless and until directed by the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on their behalf).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Each of the protections, reliances, indemnities and immunities offered to the Collateral Custodian in <u>Article XIII</u> and to the Collateral Administrator in <u>Article XV</u> shall be afforded to the Collateral Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to assume the due authority of any signatory and genuineness of any signature appearing on any instrument or document it may receive (including each Notice of Borrowing received hereunder). No Agent shall be liable for any action taken in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within the powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby for such action (including for refusing to exercise discretion or for withholding its consent in the absence of its receipt of, or resulting from a failure, delay or refusal on the part of the Required Lenders (or, with respect to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent) to provide, written instruction to exercise such discretion or grant such consent from the Required Lenders (or, with respect to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent), as applicable). No Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith unless it is proven by a non-appealable court of competent jurisdiction that such Agent was grossly negligent in ascertaining the relevant facts or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct. Nothing herein or in any other Facility Document or Related Document shall obligate any Agent to advance, expend or risk its own funds, or to take any action which in its reasonable judgment may cause it to incur any expense or financial or other liability for which it is not adequately indemnified. No Agent shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including lost profits) whatsoever, even if it has been informed of the likelihood thereof and regardless of the form of action. No Agent shall be charged with knowledge or notice of any matter unless actually known to a Responsible Officer of such Agent, or unless and to the extent written notice of such matter is received by such Agent at its address in accordance with <u>Section 12.02</u>. Any permissive grant of power to an Agent hereunder shall not be construed to be a duty to act. Neither Agent shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, entitlement order, approval or other paper or document. Neither Agent shall be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or Law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, except in the case of its willful misconduct or grossly negligent performance or omission of its duties.

&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) No Agent shall be responsible or liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control; <u>provided</u> that, such Agent shall take commercially reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance after the cessation of such acts. Such acts shall include acts of God, disease, epidemic, pandemic, quarantine, national emergency, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action (including any laws, ordinances or regulations), or the like.

&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) The delivery of reports and other documents and information to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Facility Document is for informational purposes only and the Collateral Agent's receipt of such documents and information shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized and directed to execute and deliver the other Facility Documents to which it is a party. Whether or not expressly stated in such Facility Documents, in performing (or refraining from acting) thereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, benefits, protections and indemnities which are afforded to it in this Agreement. In the event the Collateral Agent is also acting in capacity of Collateral Custodian, Collateral Administrator or Securities Intermediary, the protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall also be afforded to the Collateral Custodian, Collateral Administrator and Securities Intermediary acting in such capacities; <u>provided</u> that, such protections, immunities and indemnities shall be in addition to (but without duplication of) any protections, immunities and indemnities provided in the Account Control Agreement, or any other Facility Documents.

Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon such Agent and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Servicer, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Facility Documents to which it is a party. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Secured Party 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 and the other Facility Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the Servicer. Neither Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial or other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or the Servicer which may come into the possession of such Agent.

Section 11.04 <u>Indemnification</u>

The rights of the Administrative Agent and obligations of the Lenders under or pursuant to this <u>Section 11.04</u> shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and the earlier removal or resignation of the Administrative Agent hereunder.

Section 11.05 <u>Successor Agents</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;(a) Subject to the terms of this <u>Section 11.05</u>, each Agent may, upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, resign as Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable. If an Agent shall resign or be removed, then the Required Lenders shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor agent. If for any reason a successor agent is not so appointed and does not accept such appointment within thirty (30) days of notice of resignation or removal, such Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction at the Borrower's expense to appoint a successor agent; <u>provided</u> that, no such successor agent may be a Disqualified Lender without the prior written consent of the Borrower.

The appointment of any successor Agent shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); <u>provided</u> that, the consent of the Borrower to any such appointment shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing. Any resignation or removal of an Agent shall be effective upon the appointment of a successor Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05</u>. After the effectiveness of any retiring or removed Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Facility Documents and the provisions of this <u>Article XI</u> shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and under the other Facility Documents.

If the Collateral Agent shall be removed pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u>, then the Administrative Agent during such thirty (30) day period shall appoint a successor Collateral Agent. The appointment of any successor Collateral Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u> shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (<u>provided</u> that, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and the Required Lenders. If the Collateral Agent is removed pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u>, the Collateral Agent shall be removed in all other capacities in which it serves under this Agreement and under any of the other Facility Documents (including in its capacity as Collateral Custodian), but not in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Lender, if applicable. Any removal of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u> shall be effective upon the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u> and the acceptance of such appointment by such successor. After the effectiveness of any removal of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 11.05(c)</u>, the Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Facility Documents (but not in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Lender, if applicable) and the provisions of this <u>Article XI</u> and <u>Section 11.05(c)</u> shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and under the other Facility Documents. In the event a successor Collateral Agent shall not be appointed within such thirty (30) day period, the Collateral Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction at the Borrower's expense for the appointment of a successor Collateral Agent.

Any organization or entity into which any Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Agent shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of such Agent, shall be the successor of such Agent hereunder and under each other Facility Document to which it is a party, without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 11.07 <u>Erroneous Payments</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;(a) (i) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Secured Party (other than U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association) or other recipient that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were mistakenly or erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such recipient (whether or not known to such recipient) (any such funds whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; a distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an "<u>Erroneous Payment</u>" and any such recipient, an "<u>Unintended Recipient</u>") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Unintended Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Unintended Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

&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) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each party hereto and each Secured Party shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

&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) A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Unintended Recipient under this <u>clause (a)</u> shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&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) If an Unintended Recipient receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates):

&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) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment or calculation statement sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (a "<u>Payment Notice</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;(ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or

&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) that such Unintended Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) or such Erroneous Payment is otherwise inconsistent with such recipient's or market expectations,

in each case, an error or mistake shall be presumed to have been made with respect to such Erroneous Payment absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary. Upon demand from the Administrative Agent, such Unintended Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

&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) The Borrower and each other party hereto hereby agrees that the receipt by Unintended Recipient of an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed to such Unintended Recipient by the Borrower or any other party hereto (except to the extent that the funds used to make such Erroneous Payment were received from the Borrower in repayment of the Obligations).

The Borrower, ‎the Servicer and the Administrative Agent understand and agree that U.S. Bank and USBNA cannot ‎‎determine the identity of the actual sender of any such Instructions and that U.S. Bank and USBNA may ‎conclusively presume that directions ‎that it believes in good faith to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed ‎on the incumbency certificate provided to U.S. Bank and USBNA have been ‎sent by such Authorized ‎Officer. The Borrower, the Servicer and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be ‎responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers ‎transmit any such Instructions to a Bank ‎Party and that the Borrower, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and all of its ‎Authorized Officers are solely responsible to ‎safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable ‎user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon ‎receipt by the Borrower, ‎the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable. Neither U.S. Bank nor USBNA shall be liable for ‎any losses, costs or expenses arising ‎directly or indirectly from U.S. Bank's or USBNA's reasonable, good ‎faith reliance upon and compliance with any such Instructions prior to receiving any subsequent conflicting or inconsistent subsequent written instructions and having had a reasonable time to receive and act on such subsequent written instruction, subject to the duty of care ‎applicable to such Person acting in such capacity. The Borrower, the Servicer and the ‎Administrative Agent each agree (i) to assume all risks ‎arising out of the use of Electronic Means to ‎submit Instructions to U.S. Bank or USBNA, including without limitation the risk of U.S. Bank or USBNA acting on ‎unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully ‎informed ‎of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting ‎Instructions to U.S. Bank or USBNA and that there may ‎be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions ‎than the method(s) selected by the Borrower, the Servicer or the Administrative Agent, as ‎applicable; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its ‎transmission of Instructions provide to ‎it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of ‎its particular needs and circumstances and (iv) to notify U.S. Bank and USBNA immediately ‎upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.‎ ‎"Electronic ‎Means" shall mean the following communications methods: (1) e-mail (or .pdf files of executed ‎documents) or other similar unsecured electronic methods; (2) secure ‎electronic ‎transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication ‎keys issued by U.S. Bank or USBNA or (3) another ‎method or system specified ‎by U.S. Bank or USBNA as available ‎for use in connection with its services hereunder.

&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) By executing this Agreement, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree, and direct the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Administrator to acknowledge and agree and the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Administrator do hereby acknowledge and agree, that execution of this Agreement, any instruction, direction, notice, form or other document executed by any party to this Agreement or any other Facility Documents in connection with this Agreement or such other Facility Documents, by electronic signatures (whether by Orbit, Adobe Fill & Sign, Adobe Sign, DocuSign, SignNow, or any other similar platform identified by such party and reasonably available at no undue burden or expense to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Administrator) shall be permitted hereunder notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and such electronic signatures shall be legally binding as if such electronic signatures were handwritten signatures. Any electronically signed document delivered via email from a person purporting to be a Responsible Officer shall be considered signed or executed by such Responsible Officer on such party's behalf. To the extent received from a Responsible Officer, the parties hereto also hereby acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Administrator shall have no duty to inquire into or investigate the authenticity or authorization of any such electronic signature and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such electronic signature without any liability with respect thereto.

Section 12.03 <u>Taxes</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;(a) Any and all payments by, or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Facility Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is a Non-Excluded Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this <u>Section 12.03</u>) the applicable Secured Party receives an amount (such amount, an "<u>Additional Amount</u>") equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. In no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for the calculation or withholding of any taxes.

&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) In addition, the Borrower agrees to timely pay (or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of) any present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording or filing Taxes or any other or similar Taxes that arise from any payment made hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Facility Document, or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the Notes or under any other Facility Document, except any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (collectively, the "<u>Other Taxes</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;(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, each Secured Party for (i) the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this <u>Section 12.03)</u> paid or payable by any Secured Party (or required to be withheld or deducted from payments to a Secured Party) and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability will be promptly delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or other Secured Party and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&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) As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes pursuant to this <u>Section 12.03</u>, the Borrower will furnish to each Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof (or other evidence of payment as may be reasonably satisfactory to such Agent).

&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) If any party hereto determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (for this purpose, including credits elected by such party in lieu of a refund) of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this <u>Section 12.03</u> (including by the payment of Additional Amounts pursuant to this <u>Section 12.03</u>), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this <u>Section 12.03</u> with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all 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 <u>paragraph (e)</u> (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) 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 (e)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>paragraph (e)</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 <u>paragraph (e)</u> 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.

&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) Each Secured Party that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any other Facility Document shall deliver to the Borrower and each Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, each Secured Party, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or any Agent, shall deliver such other documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Agent as will enable the Borrower or such Agent to determine whether or not such Secured Party is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in <u>sub-clauses (A)</u>, <u>(B)</u> and <u>(D)</u> of <u>Section 12.03(f)(i)</u>) shall not be required if, in the Secured Party's reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Secured Party to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of 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;(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) any Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Intermediary) that is a United States Person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agents on or prior to the date on which such Secured Party becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agents), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Secured Party is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) any Lender that is not a "United States person" under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a "<u>Non-U.S. Lender</u>") shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agents (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a party to under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or an Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Facility Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Facility Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit F-1</u> hereto to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(C)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "<u>U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate</u>") and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit F-2</u> hereto or <u>Exhibit F-3</u> hereto, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; <u>provided</u> that, if such Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit F-4</u> hereto on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) any Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agents (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agents), 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 Agents to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) if a payment made to a Secured Party under any Facility Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Secured Party 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 Secured Party shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agents at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agents 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 or the Agents as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agents to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Secured Party has complied with such Secured Party's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this <u>clause (D)</u>, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Secured Party 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 and the Agents in writing of its legal inability to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Nothing in this <u>Section 12.03</u> shall be construed to require any Secured Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Each Lender hereby authorizes each Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Facility Document or otherwise payable by such Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to such Agent under this <u>clause (h)</u>.

The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party (or, in the case of a threatened proceeding, could reasonably have been expected to be a party if such proceeding had been brought) and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement (i) does not include a statement as to or admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any such Indemnified Party or (ii) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

&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) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender may make an assignment to any Person (other than a Disqualified Lender) with notice to, but without the consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent if such Lender makes a reasonable determination that its ownership of any of its rights or obligations hereunder is prohibited by Applicable Law.

The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) an Assignment and Acceptance and the applicable tax forms required by <u>Sections 12.03(f)</u>, together with administrative details for the applicable assignee (if such assignee is not a current Lender or an Affiliate of Citibank, N.A.). Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 12.06(d)</u>, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement, and to the extent of the interest assigned by such assigning Lender, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section 12.06</u>, (x) no assignment may be made to the Borrower, the Servicer, the Parent or any of their respective Affiliates and (y) no assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender, a natural person or any Person that, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this <u>clause (y)</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;(b) The Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

&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) (i) Any Lender may, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), sell participations to Participants in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that, (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Agents, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian and the Securities Intermediary and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (D) each Participant shall have agreed to be bound by this <u>Section 12.06(c)</u>, <u>Section 12.06(e)</u>, <u>Section 12.09</u> and <u>Section 12.16</u> and (E) no participation may be sold to a Disqualified Lender unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under <u>Section 6.01(a)</u>, <u>(c)</u>, <u>(d)</u>, <u>(i)</u> or <u>(o)</u>. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.09</u> and <u>12.03</u> (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under <u>Section 12.03(f)</u> (it being understood that the documentation required under <u>Section 12.03(f)</u> shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment under <u>clause (a)</u> of this <u>Section 12.06</u>; <u>provided</u> that, such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of <u>Section 2.20</u> as if it were an assignee under paragraph (a) of this <u>Section 12.06</u>; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under <u>Section 2.09</u> or <u>12.03</u>, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of <u>Section 2.20</u> with respect to any Participant.

&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) In the event that any Lender sells participations in any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender as non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower shall maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Advances held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Advance which is the subject of the participation (the "<u>Participant Register</u>"). An Advance may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each Note, if any, shall expressly so provide). 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 rights and obligations hereunder) to any Person except to the extent necessary to establish that such rights and obligations are in registered form under Section 5f.103-1 and proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 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, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

&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) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of and acting solely for this purpose as the non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address specified in <u>Section 12.02</u> or such other address as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Lenders, a copy of this Agreement, each signature page hereto, each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, and a register (the "<u>Register</u>") for the recordation of the names, addresses and wiring instructions of the Lenders and the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances Outstanding maintained by each Lender under this Agreement (and any stated interest thereon). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Servicer, the Agents, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Custodian, the Securities Intermediary and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender and the owner of the amounts owing to it under the Facility Documents as reflected in the Register for all purposes of the Facility Documents. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Servicer, the Collateral Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. An Advance (and a Note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each Note with respect to the Advances, if any, shall expressly so provide) and compliance with this <u>Section 12.06</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;(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Facility Document, each Lender hereunder, and each Participant, must at all times be an "accredited investor" as defined in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), and (7) of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act (an "<u>Accredited Investor</u>") and a "qualified purchaser" as defined in the Investment Company Act (a "<u>Qualified Purchaser</u>"). Each Lender severally represents to the Borrower, (i) on the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether by being a signatory hereto or by entering into an Assignment and Acceptance) and (ii) on each date on which it makes an Advance hereunder, that it is an Accredited Investor and a Qualified Purchaser.

&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) Notwithstanding any other provision of this <u>Section 12.06</u>, any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights (including rights to payment of principal and interest) under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or security interest granted to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u> that, no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) [Reserved].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Each Lender, with the consent of the Borrower, may assign to any Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Advances Outstanding or interests therein owned by it, together with ratable portions of its Commitment). The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance.

&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 application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

Section 12.19 <u>Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs</u>

To the extent that the Facility Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for hedging agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "<u>QFC Credit Support</u>" and each such QFC a "<u>Supported QFC</u>") the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "<u>U.S. Special Resolution Regimes</u>") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Facility Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Lender that is party to a Supported QFC (each a "<u>Covered Party</u>") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in the property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, default rights under the Facility Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such default rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Facility Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United Sates. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

&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) <u>Custodian</u>. The Collateral Custodian shall take and retain custody of the Loan Files delivered by the Borrower hereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (which delivery may be electronic for all documents other than any related original Underlying Notes, which shall be delivered in physical form exclusively to the Collateral Custodian), all for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, in order to perfect under the UCC the Collateral Agent's security interest therein for the benefit of the Secured Parties. In taking and retaining custody of the Loan Files, the Collateral Custodian shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; <u>provided</u> that, the Collateral Custodian makes (a) no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility for the enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral Loans and (b) no representation as to the existence, perfection or priority of any lien on the Collateral Loans or the Required Loan Documents. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Custodian is not guaranteeing performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral Loans.

The parties acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Custodian is not expecting to receive a significant number of original Required Loans Documents. In the event the Collateral Custodian receives an amount in excess of its expectation as determined in its reasonable discretion, the Collateral Custodian may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to enter into such other agreements as it deems reasonably necessary, including any agreements with a sub-agent custodian, in respect of such original Required Loan Documents.

Section 13.03 <u>Delivery of Collateral Loans to Collateral Custodian</u>

The Collateral Custodian shall not be responsible for any Collateral Loan or related Loan File until actually received by it.

If an original "security" or "instrument" as defined in Section 8-102 and Section 9-102(a)(47) of the UCC, respectively, is or shall be or become available with respect to any Collateral Loan to be held by the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement, it shall be the sole responsibility of the Borrower to make or cause delivery thereof to the Collateral Custodian, and the Collateral Custodian shall not be under any obligation at any time to determine whether any such original "security" or "instrument" has been or is required to be issued or made available in respect of any Collateral Loan or to compel or cause delivery thereof to the Collateral Custodian.

&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) the Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Administrator, unless it shall be proven that the Collateral Administrator was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts or engaged in fraud or willful misconduct;

&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) no provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Administrator to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial or other liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, 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 reasonably assured to it unless such risk or liability relates to the performance of its ordinary services under this Agreement; 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;(iv) in no event shall the Collateral Administrator be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) even if the Collateral Administrator has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of the form of such action.

&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) The Borrower and the Servicer shall cooperate with the Collateral Administrator in connection with the matters described herein, including calculations and information relating to the Borrowing Base, the Monthly Reports and the Payment Reports or as otherwise reasonably requested hereunder. The Collateral Administrator shall, promptly upon its actual receipt of a Borrowing Base Certificate from the Servicer on behalf of the Borrower, calculate the Borrowing Base and, if the Collateral Administrator's calculation does not correspond with the calculation provided by the Servicer on such Borrowing Base Certificate, deliver such calculation to each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, and the Servicer within one (1) Business Day of receipt by the Collateral Administrator of such Borrowing Base Certificate. Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to determine independently the correct characterization or categorization of any item of Collateral under this Agreement (it being understood that any such characterization or categorization shall be based exclusively upon the determination and notification received by the Collateral Administrator from the Servicer). The Servicer shall review and verify the contents of the aforesaid reports. To the extent the Servicer becomes actually aware that any of the information in such reports, instructions or certificates conflicts with information, data or calculations in the records of the Servicer, the Servicer shall notify the Collateral Administrator of such discrepancy and use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Collateral Administrator in reconciling such discrepancy. The Collateral Administrator shall cooperate with the Servicer in connection with the Servicer's review of the contents of the aforesaid reports, instruction and certificates and will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such items to the Servicer within a reasonably sufficient time (as agreed between the Servicer and the Collateral Administrator) prior to any applicable due date to enable such review. The Servicer further agrees to send such reports, instructions, statements and certificates to the Borrower for execution.

&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) The Collateral Administrator shall have no obligation to determine the Asset Value or the price of any Collateral in connection with any actions or duties under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall prevent the Collateral Administrator or any of its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or from rendering services of any kind to any Person.

&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) The Collateral Administrator shall in no event have any liability for the actions or omissions of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any other Person, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracy or error in any duty performed by it that results from or is caused by inaccurate, untimely or incomplete information or data received by it from the Borrower, the Servicer, the Collateral Custodian or another Person except to the extent that such inaccuracies or errors are caused by the Collateral Administrator's own bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence, fraud or reckless disregard of its duties hereunder. The Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for failing to perform or any delay in performing its specified duties hereunder which results from or is caused by a failure or delay on the part of the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian or any other Person in furnishing necessary, timely and accurate information to the Collateral Administrator.

&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) It is expressly acknowledged by the Borrower and the Servicer that application and performance by the Collateral Administrator of its various duties hereunder (including recalculations to be performed in respect of the matters contemplated hereby) shall be based upon, and in reliance upon, data and information provided to it by the Servicer (and/or the Borrower) with respect to the Collateral, and the Collateral Administrator shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any such information or data provided to it by such Persons. Nothing herein shall impose or imply any duty or obligation on the part of the Collateral Administrator to verify, investigate or audit any such information or data, or to determine or monitor on an independent basis whether any obligor under the Collateral is in default or in compliance with the underlying documents governing or securing such securities, from time to time, the role of the Collateral Administrator hereunder being solely to perform certain mathematical computations and data comparisons and to provide certain reports and other deliveries, as provided herein. For purposes of monitoring changes in ratings, the Collateral Administrator shall be entitled to use and rely (in good faith) exclusively upon one or more reputable electronic financial information reporting services, and shall have no liability for any inaccuracies in the information reported by, or other errors or omissions of, any such services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to determine independently any characteristic of a Collateral Loan, or to evaluate or verify the Servicer's characterization of any Collateral Loan, including whether any item of Collateral is a Revolving Collateral Loan, Delayed Drawdown Collateral Loan, Fixed Rate Obligation, Noteless Loan, PIK Loan, PIKing Loan, Specified PIK Loan, DIP Loan, MRR Loan, Eligible Collateral Loan, Ineligible Collateral Loan, Equity Security, Floor Obligation, Broadly Syndicated Loan, First Lien Loan, First Lien Last Out Loan, Second Lien Loan, Structured Finance Obligation, Certificated Security, Covenant Lite Loan or Uncertificated Security, any such determination being based exclusively upon notification the Collateral Administrator receives from the Servicer or from (or in its capacity as) the Collateral Agent (based upon notices received by the Collateral Agent from the obligor, trustee or agent bank under an underlying governing document, or similar source) and nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to review or examine any underlying instrument or contract evidencing, governing or guaranteeing or securing any Collateral Loan in order to verify, confirm, audit or otherwise determine any characteristic thereof.

Section 15.03 <u>Certain Rights of Collateral Administrator</u>

Notwithstanding any terms herein contained to the contrary, the acceptance by the Collateral Administrator of its appointment hereunder is expressly subject to the following terms, which shall govern and apply to each of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (whether or not so stated therein):

&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 Collateral Administrator may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, electronic communication, notice, request, direction, consent, order, note or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

&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) If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Administrator is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Administrator may request written instructions from the Servicer acting on behalf of the Borrower as to the appropriate course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Administrator does not receive such instructions within two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Administrator may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action; <u>provided</u> that the Collateral Administrator shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, notify the Servicer of which course of action, if any, it has decided to take. The Collateral Administrator shall act in accordance with instructions received after such two (2) Business Day period except to the extent it has already taken, or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions.

&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) Neither the Collateral Administrator nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable to anyone for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted to be taken by it (or any of its directors, officers of employees), or for any mistake of fact or Law, or for anything which it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith, unless such action constitutes gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct on its part and in breach of the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Administrator shall not be liable for any action taken by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be within powers conferred upon it, or taken by it pursuant to any direction or instruction by which it is governed hereunder, or omitted to be taken by it by reason of the lack of direction or instruction required hereby for such action.

&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) The Collateral Administrator may consult with, and obtain advice from, legal counsel selected in good faith with respect to any question as to any of the provisions hereof or its duties hereunder, or any matter relating hereto, and the written opinion or advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by the Collateral Administrator in good faith in accordance with the opinion and directions of such counsel, the reasonable cost of such services shall be reimbursed pursuant to <u>Section 15.04</u> below.

&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) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Collateral Administrator to expend or risk its own funds, or to take any action (or forbear from action) hereunder which might in its judgment involve any expense or any financial or other liability unless it shall be furnished with acceptable indemnification. Nothing herein shall obligate the Collateral Administrator to commence, prosecute or defend legal proceedings in any instance, whether on behalf of the Borrower or on its own behalf or otherwise, with respect to any matter arising hereunder, or relating to this Agreement or the services contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The permissive right of the Collateral Administrator to take any action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Collateral Administrator may act or exercise its duties or powers hereunder through agents or attorneys, and the Collateral Administrator shall not be liable or responsible for the actions or omissions of any such agent or attorney selected by it with due care.

&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) The Collateral Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control; <u>provided</u> that, the Collateral Administrator takes commercially reasonable efforts consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance after the cessation of such acts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) In no event shall the Collateral Administrator be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including lost profits), whether or not it has been advised of the likelihood of such damages.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) The Collateral Administrator shall not be deemed to have notice of any amendment or modification of a Collateral Loan unless the Collateral Administrator receives written notice thereof (which notice may be via email, it being understood that email notification notifying the Collateral Administrator that such amendment or modification has been posted to the data room to which the Collateral Administrator has been granted access shall constitute notice for this purpose).
