its respective creditors, in acting or otherwise voting on the matters involving the Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no resignation or removal of an Independent Manager, and no election of a successor Independent

 (iii) Term. Each Manager shall hold office during the continued term of the Trust
until she or he dies, resigns, is declared bankrupt or incompetent by a court of appropriate jurisdiction, or is removed, or if sooner, until the next meeting of Owners called for the purpose of electing Managers and until the election and
qualification of her or his successor. In the event that less than the majority of the Managers holding office have been elected by the Owners, the Managers then in office shall call an Owners’ meeting for the election of Managers. The Managers
named in Section 2.04(b)(i) hereof shall be deemed to have been elected by the Owners. Any Manager may resign at any time by written instrument signed by her or him and delivered to any Officer of the Trust or to the secretary of any meeting of
the Managers. Such resignation shall be effective upon receipt unless specified to be effective at some other time. Except to the extent expressly provided in a written agreement with the Trust, no Manager resigning and no Manager removed shall have
any right to any compensation for any period following her or his resignation or removal, or any right to damages on account of such removal. The Owners may elect Managers at any meeting of Owners called by the Managers for that purpose. Any Manager
may be removed at any meeting of Owners by a majority vote of the Owners. Any Manager may be removed with or without cause at any time by written instrument signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Managers prior to such removal, specifying
the date when such removal shall become effective.

Agreement, the Owners hereby grant the Board of Managers and the Officers (as defined herein) the exclusive authority to act on behalf of the Owners and the Trust in implementing the following activities: (1) acquiring, owning, holding, and
otherwise engaging in transactions with respect to the Trust Property (including borrowings secured by Trust Property) with a view toward the maximization of the value of and disposition of such Trust Property; (2) making such representations
and warranties on behalf of the Trust regarding the Trust Property and entering into such agreements on behalf of the Trust as are customary for transactions of the type set forth in clause (1); and (3) performing such activities on behalf
of the Trust that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or connected therewith or that may be required in connection with the conservation of the assets and distributions to the Owners; all on
such terms and conditions as the Board of Managers deems desirable, and evidenced by such instruments, agreements, powers of attorney, or other documents as the Board of Managers may approve, as conclusively evidenced by the execution thereof;
provided, however, that the Managers and Officers may not take any action(s) or instruct the Owner Trustee to take any action(s) that would cause the Trust (x) to become subject to registration as a broker or dealer under
Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act, (y) to become subject to compliance with Section 15(c)(3) of the Exchange Act or (z) to become a “taxable mortgage pool” within the meaning of Code Section 7701(i). In connection
therewith, the Managers shall not (1) hold the Trust out as being willing to buy and sell securities on a regular basis; (2) provide market quotes with respect to securities; (3) furnish advice to third parties regarding the purchase,
sale or value of securities; (4) extend or arrange for the extension of credit in connection with the purchase by others of securities; (5) maintain a dealer inventory of securities; or (6) attempt to obtain customers.

 (v) Actions and Meetings. Any meeting of the Board of Managers or action taken by
the Board of Managers shall be conducted in accordance with the Bylaws. Unless otherwise provided by this Agreement or the Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Managers or of any committee thereof may
be taken without a meeting by unanimous written consent of the Managers or committee members (or by written consent of a majority of the Managers if the President of the Trust determines that such exceptional circumstances exist, and are of such
urgency, as to make unanimous written consent impossible or impractical, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on all Managers and not otherwise subject to challenge) and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board of Managers or committee. 
 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Bylaws, all powers to control and
manage the business and affairs of the Trust shall be exclusively vested in the Board of Managers and the Board of Managers may exercise all powers of the Trust and do all such lawful acts as are not by statute, the Trust Certificate or this
Agreement directed or required to be exercised or done by the Owners and in so doing, except as provided otherwise in this Agreement, shall have the right and authority to take all actions which the Board of Managers deems necessary, useful or
appropriate for the management and conduct of the business of the Trust. 
 (c) Officers. Except for the appointment of the
initial officers set forth below, the Trust shall have officers who are appointed by the Board of Managers. The officers of the Trust shall consist of a President, one or more Vice Presidents, a Secretary and a Treasurer (the
“Officers”). The initial Officers of the Trust shall be:

general powers and duties of supervision, direction and management of the affairs and business of the Trust usually vested in the president of a corporation, including, without limitation, all powers necessary to direct and control the
organizational and reporting relationships within the Trust. The President or any other officer authorized by the President or the Board of Managers shall execute all contracts or agreements of the Trust. 
  

 10 

 (ii) The Vice Presidents. Each Vice President shall have such powers and perform
such duties as may from time to time be assigned to him or her by the Board of Managers or the President. 
 (iii) The
Secretary. The Secretary shall attend meetings of the Board of Managers and meetings of the Owners and record all votes and minutes of all such proceedings in a book kept for such purpose. He or she shall have all such further powers and duties
as generally are incident to the position of a secretary of a corporation or as may from time to time be assigned to him or her by the Board of Managers or the President. 
 (iv) The Treasurer. The Treasurer shall have custody of the Trust’s funds and securities and shall keep full and accurate
accounts of receipts and disbursements in books belonging to the Trust and shall deposit or cause to be deposited moneys or other valuable effects in the name and to the credit of the Trust in such depositories as may be designated by the Board of
Managers. The Treasurer shall also maintain adequate records of all assets, liabilities, and transactions of the Trust and shall see that adequate audits thereof are currently and regularly made. The Treasurer shall have such other powers and
perform such other duties that generally are incident to the position of a treasurer of a corporation or as may from time to time be assigned to him or her by the Board of Managers or the President. The Treasurer shall also have such powers and
perform such other duties as expressly set forth in this Agreement. 
 (d) Indemnification of the Managers and Officers; Advance
Payment of Indemnifiable Expenses. 
 (i) The Trust shall indemnify, save harmless, and pay all judgments and claims
against any Manager or Officer relating to any liability or damage incurred by reason of any act performed or omitted to be performed by any Manager or Officer, in their capacity as such, in connection with the business of the Trust
(“Covered Person”), including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Manager or Officer in connection with the defense of any action based on any such act or omission, which attorneys’ fees may be paid as incurred.
Unless otherwise provided in the Bylaws or herein, in the event of any action by any Owner against any Manager or Officer, in their capacity as such, including a derivative suit, the Trust shall indemnify, save harmless, and pay all expenses of such
Manager or Officer, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in the defense of such action. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Bylaws or any provision herein, this Section shall be enforced only to the maximum extent permitted by law
and no Manager or Officer shall be indemnified from any liability for the fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence or a knowing violation of the law which was material to the cause of action. Each Officer and each Manager shall upon
appointment to such position execute and deliver to the Trust a Non-Petition Agreement. 
 (ii) To the maximum extent
permitted by the Delaware Act and other applicable law, the Trust may advance to a Covered Person, in connection with the preparation and presentation of a defense to any claim, action, suit, or proceeding, expenses for which the Covered Person
would ultimately be entitled to indemnification; 

  

 11 

 
provided that the Trust has received an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person that such amount will be paid over by him to the Trust if it is
ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses, and further provided that (i) such Covered Person shall have provided appropriate security for such undertaking, (ii) the Trust is insured against losses
arising out of any such advance payments, or (iii) either a majority of the Managers who are not interested persons of the Trust nor parties to the matter, or independent legal counsel in a written opinion shall have determined, based upon a
review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) that there is reason to believe that such Covered Person will not be disqualified from indemnification for such expenses. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or any other documents governing the formation, management or operation of the Trust
to the contrary, any indemnification shall be fully subordinated to any obligations respecting the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute a claim against the Trust in the event that the cash flow of the Trust after payment of all obligations
in accordance with the Loan Agreement is insufficient to pay such obligations. 
 (e) Rights and Powers of the Owner. The Owner
shall not have any right or power to take part in the management or control of the Trust or its business and affairs or to act for or bind the Trust in any way. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner has all the rights and powers specifically set

purpose of satisfying Section 3807 thereof and shall otherwise have no right, power or duties in respect of the management of the Trust except as expressly set forth herein.

 (i) any Bankruptcy Action; 
 (ii) the merger of the Trust with any other entity; 

(iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Trust’s assets (other than by foreclosure on any Trust Property pledged for any
authorized borrowing by the Trust); or the amendment of this Agreement; or 
 (iv) the termination, revocation, dissolution or
liquidation, in whole or in part, of the Trust. 
 Section 2.05. Appointment of the Owner Trustee. The Depositor hereby
confirms the appointment under the Original Trust Agreement of the Bank as trustee of the Trust to have 

  

 12 

 
all the rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Act. The Bank confirms the receipt on the date of the Original Trust Agreement in trust from
the Depositor of $10, constituting the initial Trust Property. 
 Section 2.06. Declaration of Trust. The Owner Trustee
hereby declares that it will continue to hold the Trust Property in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Owners. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no creditor of the Owner Trustee, in its
individual capacity, shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to, the property of the Trust, except in accordance with the terms of this Trust Agreement. 
 Section 2.07. Liabilities of Owners of the Trust. The liabilities and obligations of the Trust shall be limited to the Trust Property;
provided, however, that the Owners shall be jointly and severally liable for all liabilities and obligations of the Trust to the Owner Trustee and that such liabilities and obligations shall not be limited to Trust Property and/or to
the amount of distributions each Owner has received in respect of its Trust Certificate; provided further, however, that in any event an Owner shall be liable only for obligations of the Trust arising during the period of time in which
such Owner was registered as an Owner in accordance with Section 4.02 hereof. The Owners shall have rights of contribution from each other with respect to such liabilities and obligations for which the Owners are jointly and severally liable,
in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages at the time the liabilities or obligations with respect to which contribution is sought arose. Such rights of contribution shall survive termination of this Agreement. 
 Section 2.08. Situs of Trust. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Trust constitute a statutory trust under the Act and
that this Agreement constitute the governing instrument of the Trust. The Owner Trustee hereby confirms having filed on even date with the entering into of the Original Trust Agreement a certificate of trust relating to the Trust with the Office of
the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Trust’s principal office shall be 437 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022, and any Manager or Officer may perform his or her duties in or outside of the State of Delaware.

contribution to the Trust consisting of $10. 
 ARTICLE III 
 TAX STATUS OR CAPITAL ACCOUNTS AND ALLOCATIONS 
 Section 3.01. Tax
Status. For so long as there is only one Owner (holding 100% of the Trust Certificates representing the entire beneficial interest of the Trust), then (i) the Trust shall be disregarded as a separate entity pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 301.7701-2I(2), (ii) the Trust shall not have a separate tax identification number, but rather the tax identification number of the Owner or a parent of the Owner shall be used with respect to its assets or
transactions, (iii) all items of gross income, deduction, loss or credit for a Fiscal Year, or applicable portion thereof, shall be allocated to such Owner and (iv) Sections 3.02 through 3.11, 4.06 and 5.04 hereof shall have no
operative effect. 
  

 13 

 However, in the event that there is more than one Owner, then (i) the Trust shall be treated and
taxed as a partnership and the Owners treated as partners in such partnership, for federal, state and local tax purposes (and each Owner and the Owner Trustee will act strictly in accordance therewith), (ii) the Trust shall apply for a separate
tax identification number and (iii) any Net Profit or Net Loss for a Fiscal Year or any applicable portion thereof shall be determined and allocated to the Owners according to Sections 3.02 through 3.11 hereof. 
 Section 3.02. Capital Accounts. A separate capital account shall be established and maintained for each Owner (each, a
“Capital Account”). The Capital Account of each Owner: (a) shall be credited with (i) the amount of cash and the agreed upon fair market value of any property contributed by such Owner to the Trust (net of liabilities
secured by such contributed property that the Trust is considered to assume or take subject to under Section 752 of the Code), (ii) such Owner’s allocable share of any Net Profits and Gross Income, and (iii) such Owner’s
share of other items required to be credited thereto under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv); and (b) shall be debited with (i) the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property distributed to such Owner (net
of liabilities secured by such distributed property that such Owner is considered to assume or take subject to Section 752 of the Code) under Section 6.02, (ii) such Owner’s allocable share of any Net Loss, and items of Gross
Deduction, and (iii) such Owner’s share of other items required to be debited thereto under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). Any adjustments to the tax basis of Trust Property under Code Sections 732, 734 or 743
will be reflected as adjustments to the Capital Accounts of the Owner only in the manner and to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m). If any property of the Trust is to be distributed in kind, such property
shall be distributed on the basis of its fair market value after the Owners’ Capital Accounts have been adjusted to reflect the manner in which any unrealized gain and loss with respect to such property (that has not been reflected in the
Capital Accounts previously) would be allocated among the Owners if there were a taxable disposition of the property for its fair market value in the manner provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e). 
 In the event of (x) an additional capital contribution by an existing or an additional Owner of more than a de minimis amount which results in
a shift in Ownership Percentages, (y) the distribution by the Trust to an Owner of more than a de minimis amount of property or cash as consideration for an interest in the Trust, or (z) the liquidation of the Trust within the meaning
of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(ii)(g), the book basis of the Trust Property shall be adjusted to fair market value and the Capital Accounts of all the Owners shall be adjusted simultaneously to reflect the aggregate net
adjustment to book basis as if the Trust recognized gain and loss equal to the amount of such aggregate net adjustment; provided, however, that adjustments resulting from clauses (x) and (y) above shall be made only if and to
the extent that the Board of Managers so agree and shall have reasonably determined that such adjustments are necessary or appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Owners. 
 In the event that Trust Property is subject to Section 704 of the Code or is revalued on the books of the Trust in accordance with the preceding
paragraph pursuant to Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) of the Treasury Regulations, the Owners’ Capital Accounts shall be adjusted in accordance with Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) of the Treasury Regulations for allocations to the Owners
of depreciation, amortization and gain or loss, as computed for book purposes (and not tax purposes) with respect to such property. 
  

 14 

 These provisions and other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts
are intended to comply with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b), and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such section of the Treasury Regulations. The Transferee of all or a portion of an Owner’s Ownership
Interest in the Trust shall succeed to that portion of the Owner’s Capital Account which is allocable to the portion of the Ownership Interest Transferred. 
 Section 3.03. Allocation of Net Profits and Net Loss. Subject to Sections 3.04, 3.05, 3.06, 3.07, 3.08, 3.09 and 3.10 hereof, Net Profits and Net Loss for a Fiscal Year shall be determined and
allocated to the Owners as follows: 
 (a) Net Profits. Net Profits for a Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the Owners in
proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages. 
 (b) Net Loss. Net Loss for a Fiscal Year shall be allocated among the
Owners in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages. 
 Section 3.04. Minimum Gain. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Article III, if during any Fiscal Year of the Trust there is a net decrease in Trust minimum gain (as such term is defined by Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(b)(2) and (d) with respect to partnership minimum
gain), then each Owner shall be allocated Gross Income for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in the manner provided in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f) and (j). Likewise, if there is a net decrease during
any Fiscal Year in the minimum gain attributable to a Partner Nonrecourse Debt (as determined under Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(3) with respect to partner nonrecourse debt), then any Owner with a share of the minimum gain
attributable to such debt at the beginning of such Fiscal Year shall be allocated items of Gross Income for such Fiscal Year (and, if necessary, for subsequent Fiscal Years) in the manner provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4).
This Section 3.04 is intended to comply with, and shall be interpreted to be consistent with, the minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2. 
 Section 3.05. Partner Nonrecourse Deductions. Gross Deductions which are Partner Nonrecourse Deductions for any Fiscal Year of the
Trust shall be allocated to the Owner that bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the loan to which such Partner Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i). 
 Section 3.06. Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse deductions for a Fiscal Year (as defined in Treasury Regulations
Sections 1.704-2I and (j)(ii)) shall be allocated among the Owners in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages. 
 Section 3.07. Loss Allocation Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article III, unless otherwise agreed to by such Owner, no Owner shall be allocated Net Losses or Gross Deductions in any taxable
year which would cause or increase a Capital Account deficit (determined with the adjustments set forth in the last sentence of Section 3.09 hereof) for such Owner as of the end of such taxable year and any such Net Losses and Gross Deductions
shall instead be specially allocated to the other Owners in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages to the extent such allocation does not cause or increase such a 

  

 15 

 
deficit for such Owner. All Net Losses and Gross Deductions in excess of the limitation set forth in the preceding sentence shall be allocated to the Owners
in proportion to their Ownership Percentages. If any Net Losses or Gross Deductions are specially allocated pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.07, future allocations of Net Profits in the amount of such Net Losses and Gross
Deductions otherwise allocable in accordance with Section 3.03(a) hereof shall be allocated to the Owners to whom such Net Losses and Gross Deductions were specially allocated, as provided in Section 3.10 hereof. 
 Section 3.08. Federal Taxable Income and Loss. 
 (a) Allocation of Taxable Income. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.08, taxable income, gain, loss or deduction of the Trust (as well as any credits and the basis
of property to which such credits apply) as determined for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated in the same manner as the corresponding income, gain, loss or deduction is allocated for purposes of adjusting Capital Accounts under this
Article III. 
 (b) Section 704(c) Allocation. Any item of income, gain, loss and deduction for federal income tax
purposes with respect to any Trust property that has been contributed by an Owner to the capital of the Trust and which is required to be allocated for federal income tax purposes under Section 704(c) of the Code so as to take into account the
variation between the adjusted tax basis of such property and its agreed upon fair market value at the time of its contribution shall be allocated to the Owners solely for federal income tax purposes in the manner so required. In the event of the
occurrence of any event described in clause (x), (y) or (z) of the second paragraph of Section 3.02 hereof, subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such property shall take account of any
variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Trust for federal income tax purposes and its fair market value immediately after the adjustment in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations
thereunder. Any elections or other decisions relating to such allocations shall be made by the Board of Managers in a manner that reasonably reflects the purpose and intention of this Agreement. Allocations pursuant to this Section 3.08(b) are
solely for income tax purposes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, for book purposes, any Owner’s Capital Account pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. 
 Section 3.09. Qualified Income Offset. In the event that at any time any Owner receives any adjustments, allocations, or distributions
described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5) or (6) that create or increase a deficit balance in its Capital Account, then the next allocation of Gross Income that would otherwise have been allocated to the other
Owners shall be specially allocated to such Owner in an amount and in a manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations, or distributions as quickly as possible. Solely for purposes
of this Section 3.09 (and Section 3.07), in determining whether an Owner has a deficit Capital Account at any time, such Owner’s Capital Account shall be (x) increased by that amount that such Owner is treated as being obligated
to restore pursuant to the next to last sentences of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(g)(1) and (i)(5) (determined after taking into account thereunder any changes during such Fiscal Year in any Trust minimum gain and in minimum gain
attributable to any Partner Nonrecourse Debt, as described in Section 3.04 hereof) and (y) decreased by the items described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704 1(b)(2)(ii) (d), (5) and (6). 
  

 16 

 Section 3.10. Curative Allocation. Any special allocations pursuant to
Sections 3.07 and 3.09 hereof shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to Article III, so that to the extent it is in accordance with the rules of the Treasury Regulations under Section 704(b), the net
adjustment to the Capital Account of each Owner from allocations of Net Profits, Net Losses, Gross Income and Gross Deductions allocated to each Owner pursuant to Article III shall be equal to the net adjustment to such Capital Account from the
allocations of Net Profits and Gross Income and Gross Deductions that would have been allocated to each Owner pursuant to the provisions of Article III if the adjustments, allocations, or distributions and the resulting special allocations
pursuant to such Sections had not occurred. 
 Section 3.11. Change of Trust Interest. Subject to Section 706 of the
Code and to any applicable Treasury Regulations, Net Profits, Gross Income, Net Loss, Gross Deductions and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for federal income tax purposes for a Fiscal Year that are attributable to any Ownership
Interest that is Transferred or assigned during such Fiscal Year shall be allocated between (i) the portion of the Fiscal Year during which the Ownership Interest in the Trust was held by the Transferor and (ii) the portion of the Fiscal
Year during which the Ownership Interest was held by the Transferee on the basis of an interim closing of the books method or any other method chosen by the Board of Managers and permitted under Section 706 of the Code. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 TRUST CERTIFICATES AND
TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP INTERESTS 
 Section 4.01. Initial Issuance of Trust Certificates. The Trust Certificates shall
be issued substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, in minimum denominations of a one percent interest in the Trust. The Trust Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by the Owner Trustee by manual or facsimile signature of an
authorized officer of the Owner Trustee. Trust Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Owner Trustee, shall be
validly issued and entitled to the benefit of this Agreement, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates or did not hold such offices
at the date of authentication and delivery of such Trust Certificates. The Owner Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to issue and deliver on behalf of the Trust to Medallion Funding, a Trust Certificate registered in the name of
“Medallion Funding Corp.” evidencing a 100% Ownership Percentage. 
 Section 4.02. Registration and Transfer of Trust
Certificates. 
 (a) The Owner Trustee shall maintain at its office referred to in Section 2.02 hereof, or at the office of any agent
appointed by it and approved in writing by the Owners at the time of such appointment, a register showing a record of the initial issuance of Trust Certificates, a record of each Transfer of Trust Certificates including the time and date thereof,
the names of the Owners of the Trust Certificates and their respective Ownership Percentages. Prior to due presentment for registration of Transfer of any Trust Certificate, the Owner Trustee may treat the person in whose name any Trust Certificate
is registered as the owner of such Trust Certificate 

  

 17 

 
for the purpose of receiving payments on such Trust Certificate pursuant to Sections 6.02 and 6.06 hereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether
or not the Owner Trustee shall have notice to the contrary. (For purposes of this Agreement, due presentment of a Trust Certificate requires presentation of all documents and instruments required by this Agreement as a condition to the registration
of the Transfer of the Ownership Percentage evidenced by such Trust Certificate.) 
 No service charge shall be made to an Owner for any
registration of Transfer of a Trust Certificate, but the Owner Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of Transfer of a Trust Certificate
and any reasonable expenses of the Owner Trustee (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel). 
 (b) Subject to the provisions of
Section 4.03 hereof, the Owner of any Trust Certificate may Transfer all or any portion of the Ownership Percentage evidenced by such Trust Certificate upon the surrender of such Trust Certificate to the Owner Trustee or its agent accompanied
by the written consent required pursuant to Section 4.03 hereof. Promptly upon the receipt of such documents, (i) the Owner Trustee shall cancel any Trust Certificate surrendered for Transfer; (ii) if applicable, the Owner Trustee
shall issue to the Transferor a new Trust Certificate representing an Ownership Percentage equal to the Ownership Percentage retained by the Transferor and dated the date of such Transfer; (iii) the Owner Trustee shall issue to each Transferee
a new Trust Certificate representing an Ownership Percentage equal to the Ownership Percentage that was Transferred to such Transferee and dated the date of such Transfer; and (iv) the Owner Trustee shall register the new Trust Certificates in
the name of the Transferor (if applicable) and each Transferee and record their respective Ownership Percentages existing after the Transfer in accordance with Section 4.02(a) hereof. Other than as provided in this paragraph (b), an Owner shall
not have the right to surrender its Trust Certificate in exchange for two or more Trust Certificates evidencing lesser Ownership Interests. 
 (c) Upon Transfer of all of an Owner’s Ownership Interest, the Transferor shall be released from all of the duties, liabilities and obligations of an Owner under this Agreement arising from and after the time of such Transfer;
provided, however, that the Transferor shall remain obligated with respect to all duties, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement arising during the period commencing on the date such Owner became registered as an Owner in
accordance with this Section 4.02 and terminating at the time such Transfer becomes effective in accordance with this Section 4.02, and the Transferee shall assume in writing all duties, liabilities and obligations of an Owner under this
Agreement arising from and after the time of such Transfer (subject to any subsequent Transfers by it in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof). 
 (d) Upon reasonable notice, each Owner shall have the right to inspect the register of Trust Certificates during business hours of the Owner Trustee for the purpose, among other things, of communicating with the other
Owners. 
  

 18 

 Section 4.03. Limitations on Transfer of Trust Certificates. 
 (a) An Owner may Transfer all or a portion of its Ownership Interest only upon the approval of the Board of Managers or pursuant to an agreement approved
by the Board of Managers and, in either case, only in conformity with the Loan Agreement as long as any Secured Obligations remain unpaid under the Basic Documents. 
 (b) No Transfer of a Trust Certificate will be made, and the Owner Trustee shall not be obligated to register any Transfer of a Trust Certificate, unless such Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act and in compliance with each applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such laws. Each Owner, by purchasing or otherwise acquiring ownership of a
Trust Certificate, is deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that such Transfer complies with the registration provisions or exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. By
its ownership of a Trust Certificate, and unless otherwise provided pursuant to an opinion of counsel to the Trust concluding that adverse consequences under the federal securities laws would not result, each Owner will be deemed to have represented
that it is an institutional Accredited Investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act and a Qualified Purchaser within the meaning of Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Owner Trustee shall not be responsible for ascertaining whether any Transfer complies with this Agreement, the registration provisions or exemptions from the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws or the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 (c) Each Owner by purchase of a Trust Certificate is deemed hereby to have acknowledged and agreed that
such Owner is not an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) which is subject to the provisions of Title I of ERISA, a plan (as defined in
Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code, other than a governmental or church plan described in Section 4975(g)(2) or (3) of the Code) which is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, a no governmental plan subject to any federal, state or
local law, which is, to a material respect, similar to the foregoing provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a “Similar Law”), (each of the foregoing plans a “Plan”) or an entity whose
underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of a Plan’s investment in the entity. Each prospective purchaser of a Trust Certificate or any interest therein, by purchasing a Trust Certificate or any interest therein, represents
that it is not a Plan or an entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of a Plan’s investment in the entity. 
 The Owner Trustee shall not be required to register any Transfer of a Trust Certificate within ten Business Days preceding any Distribution Date. 
 Section 4.04. Lost, Stolen, Mutilated or Destroyed Trust Certificates. If (i) any mutilated Trust Certificate is surrendered to the Owner Trustee, or (ii) the Owner Trustee receives
evidence to its satisfaction that any Trust Certificate has been destroyed, lost or stolen, and upon proof of ownership satisfactory to the Owner Trustee together with such security or indemnity as may be requested by the Owner Trustee to hold it
harmless, the Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver a new Trust Certificate representing the same Ownership Percentage as the Trust Certificate so mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, bearing a different certificate number, with such notations,
if any, as the Owner Trustee shall determine. 
  

 19 

 Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 4.04 shall constitute complete and
indefeasible evidence of ownership of such Trust Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time. 
 Section 4.05. Pledge of Rights to Distributions. Subject to Section 4.03 hereof, an Owner may pledge, encumber or hypothecate all
or any part of its Trust Certificate and its rights to receive distributions hereunder. Any such pledge, encumbrance or hypothecation shall not constitute a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in the Trust. Unless the foreclosure of any such pledge,
encumbrance or hypothecation meets the requirements of Section 4.03 hereof and is registered in accordance with Section 4.02 hereof, such foreclosure shall not constitute a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in the Trust and the holder of
the related Trust Certificate following such foreclosure shall not be entitled to any rights as an Owner under this Agreement, other than the right to receive distributions under this Agreement as contemplated by the first sentence of this Section.

 Section 4.06. Section 754 Election. In the event a Transfer of a Trust Certificate occurs which satisfies the
provisions of Section 743 of the Code, the Trust shall, if requested to do so by the Transferee, and the Board of Managers deem doing so advisable, elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of the Trust Property to
the extent allowed by such Section 743 and shall cause such adjustments to be made and maintained. Any additional accounting expenses incurred by the Trust in connection with making or maintaining such basis adjustment shall be reimbursed to
the Trust by the Transferee of such Trust Certificate who benefits from the making and maintenance of such basis adjustment. 
 ARTICLE V

 ACTIONS OF THE OWNER TRUSTEE 
 SUBJECT TO POWER OF THE OWNERS 
 Section 5.01. Action Upon Instructions. 
 (a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement and in accordance with the terms of the Basic Documents, the Board of Managers may by written instruction
direct the Owner Trustee in the discharge of its limited duties specifically set forth herein or in the Act. Such direction may be exercised at any time by written instruction given by an Officer pursuant to this Article V. Notwithstanding any
instruction to the contrary by the Owners or the Board of Managers, in no event shall the Owner Trustee take any action which would have the effect of discharging the security interest created under the Loan Agreement with respect to the Collateral
as defined therein, except such action taken in accordance with the Loan Agreement. 
 (b) The Owner Trustee shall take such action or
actions as may be specified in any written direction delivered in accordance with Section 5.01(a) hereof; provided, however, that the Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any such action if the Bank or Owner Trustee shall
have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action (A) is 

  

 20 

 
contrary to the terms hereof or of any document contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party or is otherwise contrary to law or (B) is
likely to result in liability on the part of the Bank or Owner Trustee, unless the Owners shall have provided to the Bank indemnification or security reasonably satisfactory to the Bank or Owner Trustee against all costs, expenses and liabilities
arising from the Owner Trustee’s taking such action. 
 (c) Subject to Section 7.05, the Trust is not intended to be a business
trust within the meaning of Section 109(9)(A)(v) of the Bankruptcy Code. None of the Owner Trustee, the Board of Managers, the Officers, the Depositor or the Owners shall have the power to (i) commence any case, proceeding or other action
on behalf of the Trust under any existing or future law of any jurisdiction relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, (ii) institute proceedings to have the Trust declared or adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent,
(iii) consent to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against the Trust, (iv) file a petition or consent to a petition seeking reorganization or relief on behalf of the Trust under any applicable federal or state law
relating to bankruptcy, (v) consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or any similar official) of the Trust or a substantial portion of the assets of the Trust, (vi) make any assignment for the
benefit of the Trust’s creditors, (vii) cause the Trust to admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or (viii) take any action, or cause the Trust to take any action, in furtherance of any of the
foregoing (each a “Bankruptcy Action”); provided, however, if the foregoing limitation is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be enforceable under the Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law, then
the Owner Trustee shall not be authorized to take the actions specified in the preceding clauses (i) through (viii), or any of them, unless the Owner Trustee receives, at the sole expense of the Owners, (A) the unanimous written consent
thereto of the Board of Managers (including the Independent Manager), who shall be required at such time to certify to the Owner Trustee that the Trust is then “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy Code,
(B) the written confirmation by independent accountants to the Trust as to the “sum of the Trust’s debts”, (C) the written confirmation by an outside valuation expert, having reasonable expertise in the valuation of assets,
as to the value of “all of the Trust’s property, at a fair valuation” and (D) a written opinion by outside counsel to the Trust, having reasonable expertise in practice under the Bankruptcy Code, as to the validity of any
exclusions from such valuation that are asserted to be applicable pursuant to said Section 101(32) and stating that the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (A) through (C) above have been satisfied. The Owner Trustee shall be
fully protected in relying upon the documents referred to in the preceding clauses (A) through (D) and shall have no duty to verify or investigate the conclusions stated therein. 
 (d) Action by Owners with Respect to Bankruptcy. Subject to Section 7.05, the Trust, the Board of Managers and the Owner Trustee shall not
have the power to commence a voluntary Bankruptcy Action relating to the Trust unless the conditions specified in Section 5.01(c) are satisfied and the Trust is “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy
Code and the Owner Trustee, the Board of Managers (including the Independent Manager) and each Owner unanimously vote in favor of such action. The Owner Trustee, by entering into this Agreement, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any
time institute against the Trust, or join in any institution against the Trust of, any Bankruptcy Action until the date that is one year and one day after the later of the date upon which all Secured Obligations of the Trust under the Loan Agreement
have been satisfied. 
  

 21 

 (e) Restrictions on Owners’ Power. No Owner, Manager or Officer shall direct the Owner
Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Trust or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03 nor shall
the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given. 
 (f) In the event that the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the
application of any provision of this Agreement that specifically calls for the Owner Trustee to take any action, or such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or this
Agreement permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action which the Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in
such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Board of Managers, requesting instructions as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with written instructions
received from the Board of Managers through an Officer, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instructions within fifteen days of such notice (or
within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of
the Owners, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction. Upon reasonable request of any Owner, the Owner Trustee shall communicate with the other Owners, if any, concerning any instructions or actions sought by such Owner
pursuant to this Section 5.01. 
 (g) The Owner Trustee shall, subject to this Section 5.01 and Section 10.01 hereof, and
solely in connection with the limited duties that are specifically set forth herein as duties of the Owner Trustee, act in accordance with the written instructions given to it by the Board of Managers through an Officer, and to the extent the Owner
Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with such instructions, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person. 
 Section 5.02. Action by Owners with Respect to Certain Matters. In the event that there is more than one Owner and any adverse determination is made by the Service or by any court with respect to the classification of the
Trust as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, the Tax Matters Partner shall, by written notice to the Board of Managers, describe the circumstances and seek instructions as to the course of action to be followed. The Tax Matters Partner
shall contest such adverse determination if so instructed by the Board of Managers and, to the extent the Tax Matters Partner acts in accordance with such instructions, the Tax Matters Partner shall not be liable on account of such action to any
Person. If the Board of Managers instructs the Tax Matters Partner to contest any such adverse determination, the costs thereof shall be borne by all Owners, in proportion to their respective Ownership Percentages. If the Board of Managers decides
not to contest any such adverse determination, but an Owner, acting in its individual capacity, instructs the Tax Matters Partner to contest any such adverse determination, all costs thereof shall be borne by such Owner personally. 
 Section 5.03. Majority Consent. Except where a different percentage or amount is specified herein, any action which
requires the consent of, or permits the direction by, the Owners under this Agreement, must be approved or directed by a majority of the ownership percentage of the Owners. 
  

 22 

 Section 5.04. Tax Matters Partner. The Tax Matters Partner (as defined in
Section 6231 of the Code) of the Trust shall be Medallion Funding or such other Person as the Board of Managers shall appoint, and notice of any such appointment shall be given in writing to the Owner Trustee and the Board of Managers. Each
Owner shall give prompt notice to the other Owners upon receipt of advice that the Service intends to examine or audit any income tax returns of the Trust. The Tax Matters Partner shall promptly notify the Board of Managers of the commencement of
any administrative or judicial or similar proceedings involving the tax treatment of items of Trust income, loss, deductions and credits, and shall further keep the Board of Managers fully informed of all material developments involved in such
proceedings. 
 Nothing in this Section 5.04 shall limit the ability of the Owners to take any action in their individual capacity
relating to tax audit matters that are left to the determination of an individual Owner under Sections 6222-6232 of the Code. 
 The Tax
Matters Partner, at the expense of the Trust, shall cause to be prepared by a preparer approved by the Board of Managers all Federal, state and local income tax returns and other returns or statements required of the Trust by applicable law and upon
the approval of such returns or statements by the Board of Managers, the Tax Matters Partner shall timely file such returns or statements. The Tax Matters Partner shall not have any liability for acts of any agent in connection with such returns and
statements. The Trust shall, in accordance with applicable federal or state laws or regulations, claim all deductions and make such elections for Federal or state income tax purposes which the Board of Managers reasonably believes will produce the
most favorable tax results for the Owners. In addition, the Tax Matters Partner shall be responsible for the maintenance of Capital Accounts under Section 3.02. 
 The Tax Matters Partner shall (i) cause to be prepared and delivered to each Owner such financial statements of the Trust, and other reports or information, as are necessary to enable each Owner to prepare such
Owner’s state and federal income tax returns, (ii) until such time as the Tax Matters Partner has received the written unanimous consent of the Board of Managers concerning any change in the tax classification of the Trust, file or cause
to be filed tax returns as a partnership for federal, state and local income tax purposes, and (iii) cause to be mailed to an Owner copies of any or all of such tax returns of the Trust when requested to do so by such Owner. 
 The Tax Matters Partner shall not be required to take any action or incur any expenses for the prosecution of any administrative or judicial remedies in
its capacity as Tax Matters Partner unless the Tax Matters Partner is satisfied that the Trust will bear any and all such expenses. As long as the Tax Matters Partner is not grossly negligent or does not act in bad faith, or if the Tax Matters
Partner acts pursuant to instructions of or approved by the Board of Managers, the Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless the Tax Matters Partner from and against any and all liabilities incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any
activities or undertakings taken by it in its capacity as Tax Matters Partner. Any Owner that enters into a settlement or closing agreement with the Service or state or local tax authority in respect of any Trust item shall notify the Tax Matters
Partner of such agreement and its terms within ten days of the execution of such agreement. 
  

 23 

 With respect to the making of distributions and other tax and accounting matters, the Owner Trustee shall
be entitled to rely upon, and shall have no liability for relying upon, the instructions of or information supplied by the Tax Matters Partner without any obligation to verify the information in such instructions. 
 Section 5.05. Books and Records; Financial Reports. 
 (a) At all times during the existence of the Trust, the Treasurer shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, full and true books of account, which shall reflect all Trust transactions and be appropriate and adequate
for the Trust’s business. Such books of account shall be maintained at the principal place of business of the Treasurer. 
 (b) The
Treasurer shall be entitled to full reimbursement for all reasonable costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, out-of-pocket expenses associated with maintenance of the books of account of the Trust. The amount of costs and expenses to be
reimbursed pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be estimated each year by the Treasurer and communicated by the Treasurer to the Board of Managers prior to the incurrence of such costs and expenses. So long as the Treasurer is not grossly
negligent or does not act in bad faith, or if the Treasurer acts pursuant to instructions of the Board of Managers, the Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless the Treasurer from and against any and all liabilities incurred by the Treasurer in
connection with any activities or undertakings taken by it in its capacity as Treasurer. 
 (c) The Treasurer shall deliver to Board of
Managers, by the fifteenth day of the month immediately succeeding the month being reported upon, a balance sheet as of the end of each month and related financial statements for the month then ended, all of which shall be prepared in accordance
with such accounting principles as the Treasurer shall determine are appropriately reflective of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If the Board of Managers so determines, the balance sheet as of the end of the Fiscal Year and related
financial statements for the year then ended, shall be examined and reported upon, with an opinion expressed by, an independent public accountant engaged by the Trust and approved by the Board of Managers. The Treasurer shall not have any liability
for acts of the independent public accountant appointed in accordance herewith in connection with such examination and report. 
 ARTICLE
VI 
 INVESTMENT AND APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS 
 Section 6.01. Investment of Trust Funds. Unless otherwise directed in writing by the Board of Managers, proceeds of the Trust Property received by the Trust more than one day prior to a Distribution
Date may be invested by the Treasurer at the written direction of the Board of Managers in investments purchased through and held by the Trust as instructed by the Board of Managers, maturing not later than such Distribution Date. In the event that
the Treasurer does not receive such direction by the close of business on the day preceding the day on which such proceeds are received by the Treasurer, the Treasurer may invest such proceeds in Designated Investments purchased through and held by
the Trust as instructed by the Board of Managers, maturing not later than the next succeeding Distribution Date. 
  

 24 

 Section 6.02. Distributions. 
 (a) Any portion of the Trust Property shall, subject to the terms and provisions of the Basic Documents, be distributed by the Treasurer as follows:

 (i) first, on each Distribution Date to pay reasonable and necessary operating expenses of the Trust, including the
payment of any amounts owing to the Owner Trustee under this Agreement; and 
 (ii) second, in such amounts, from time
to time, as shall be determined by the Board of Managers on each Distribution Date or any other date selected by the Board of Managers, to the Owners based on their respective Ownership Percentages as reflected in the register maintained by the
Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date or such other date; provided, however, if the Board of Managers through an Officer has
instructed the Treasurer to retain such funds, then the retained funds shall thereafter be applied according to the further written instructions of the Board of Managers. The Bank shall not be liable for any amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 6.02 and, except as specifically provided in Section 6.05 hereof and the third sentence of Section 10.01 hereof, is not subject to any liability under this Agreement. 
 (b) In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Trust’s payment (or allocations of income) to an Owner, such tax shall reduce the amount
otherwise distributable to the Owner in accordance with this Section 6.02. The Treasurer is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally
owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Treasurer, at the direction of the Board of Managers, or the Tax Matters Partner from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and shall not prevent the Treasurer from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to an Owner shall be treated as cash distributed to such Owner at the time it is withheld by the
Trust and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution (such as a distribution to a non-U.S. Owner), the Treasurer may in its sole discretion withhold such
amounts in accordance with this paragraph (b). In the event that an Owner wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Treasurer shall reasonably cooperate with such Owner in making such claim so long as such Owner agrees to
reimburse the Treasurer for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred. In the event that the Treasurer or the Trust is liable for any failure to withhold in respect of a distribution to an Owner, then such Owner shall indemnify the Treasurer or the Trust
for any amount (including penalties and interest) paid by the Treasurer or the Trust in respect of such liability. 
 (c) Any Owner which is
organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date such Owner becomes an Owner, (i) so notify the Treasurer and (ii) either (A) provide the Treasurer with Internal Revenue Service
Form 1001, 4224 or W-8, as appropriate, or (B) notify the Treasurer that it is not entitled to an exemption from United States withholding tax or a reduction in the rate thereof on payments of interest. 
  

 25 

 Section 6.03. Statements. 
 (a) Distribution Date Statements. With each distribution to an Owner pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, Treasurer shall deliver a
statement to an Officer (a “Distribution Date Statement”) setting forth, for the period since the preceding Distribution Date (or since the execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of the first Distribution Date):

 (i) the amounts received by the Trust with respect to the Trust Property; 
 (ii) the amount of fees and expenses paid to the Owner Trustee since the preceding Distribution Date; and 
 (iii) the amounts paid to Owners. 
 (b) Officer Reports. An Officer shall deliver copies of all remittance reports to the Owners and, if requested by an Owner, shall provide analysis and consolidation of such reports in such form as such Owner may
request. 
 Section 6.04. Method of Payment. All amounts payable to an Owner pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by
the Treasurer to such Owner, as the Owner elects (and so instructs the Treasurer) from time to time, by check payable to such Owner in next day funds, mailed first class to the address of such Owner appearing on the register maintained pursuant to
Section 4.02(a) hereof, or by credit in immediately available funds to an account maintained by such Owner with the Treasurer or by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a banking institution with bank wire transfer facilities for the
account of such Owner. The Treasurer may require an Owner to pay any wire transfer fees incurred in connection with any wire transfer made to such Owner and may collect such fees by deducting them from the amount so transferred. 
 Section 6.05. No Segregation of Moneys; No Interest. Moneys received by the Treasurer hereunder need not be segregated
in any manner except to the extent required by law or as otherwise provided herein and may be deposited under such general conditions as may be prescribed by law, and neither the Owner Trustee nor the Bank shall be liable for any interest thereon
(unless such funds are invested in interest-bearing investments of the Bank). 
 Section 6.06. Distributions Upon Termination of
Trust. Upon the dissolution, winding up and termination of the Trust, the Trust Property or the cash proceeds therefrom shall be distributed by the Treasurer in the following order of priority: 
 (a) First, to creditors, including the Agent and Owner Trustee, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction of liabilities of the
Trust (whether by payment or by making of reasonable provision for payment) in accordance with the Basic Documents other than liabilities for distributions to Owners on account of their respective interests in the Trust, and in the setting up of
such reserves as the Board of Managers may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate for any contingent, conditional or unmatured liabilities or obligations of the Trust, and when all such liabilities are satisfied, the balance of such reserves, if
any, shall be distributed as hereinafter provided; 
  

 26 

 (b) Second, to any Owners who are creditors; and 
 (c) Third, to the Owners in accordance with and to the extent of their respective Capital Account balances after taking into account the
allocation of all Net Profits, Net Loss, Gross Income and Gross Deduction pursuant to this Agreement for the Fiscal Year in which the Trust is terminated; provided, however, that if at the time of termination there shall be one Owner,
then any amount remaining after Section 6.06(a) shall be distributed to such Owner. 
 (d) If, after giving effect to the allocations of
Net Profits, Net Loss, Gross Income, Gross Deduction or credit under Article III and all contributions and distributions for all taxable years, any Owner shall have a deficit balance in such Owner’s Capital Account, such Owner shall have
no obligation to restore such deficit balance, or to make any contribution to the capital of the Trust by reason thereof, and such deficit balance shall under no circumstances be considered a liability owed to the Trust.

 (c) The Owners shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Property. No transfer by operation of law or otherwise of any interest of the Owners shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder

and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles and (iii) the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the fulfillment of the terms hereof do not (a) conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a

Owner Trustee that such Depositor is acquiring its Trust Certificate under this Agreement for its own account as principal and not with a view to the distribution thereof in whole or in part. 
 Section 7.04. Investment Company. The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Owner Trustee that the Trust will not be an
“investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Section 7.05. Bankruptcy

 Section 7.06. Taxable as a Corporation. Each of the Depositor, the Board of Managers, the Owners, an Officer and the Owner Trustee hereby covenants that for so long as any Secured Obligations remain
outstanding and the lien of the Loan Agreement has not been released, it shall not take any action that would result in the Trust becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. In no event will the Trust elect to be treated as an
association taxable as a corporation.

Owner Trustee has been offered security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the cost, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by the Owner Trustee therein or thereby. The right of the Owner Trustee to perform any discretionary
act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and the Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable or accountable for the performance of any such act except as specifically provided in this Article X. 
 (g) The Owner Trustee shall incur no liability if, by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation thereunder, or by any force
majeure event, including but not limited to natural disaster, war (declared or undeclared) or other circumstances beyond its reasonable control, the Owner Trustee shall be prevented or forbidden from doing or performing any act or thing which the
terms of this Agreement provide shall or may be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Agreement. 
 Section 10.02. Reliance. The Owner Trustee shall incur no liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate,
report, opinion, bond or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine and reasonably believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties. The Owner Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of
directors or other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact or matter the manner of ascertainment of which is
not specifically prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president or any vice president and by the treasurer or an assistant treasurer or the secretary or an assistant secretary of the
relevant party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. 
  

 31 

 Section 10.03. Agents; Advice of Counsel. In the exercise of its duties
hereunder, the Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or, at the reasonable expense of the Trust, through agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the default or
misconduct of such agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the Owner Trustee with reasonable care; and (ii) may, at the reasonable expense of the Trust, consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled
persons to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice or opinion of any such counsel, accountants or other
skilled persons. 
 Section 10.04. Doing Business. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, neither the Bank nor the Owner Trustee shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action will (i) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or
the giving of notice to, or the registration with or taking of any action in respect of, any state or other governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; (ii) result in any fee, tax or other governmental
charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivisions thereof in existence as of the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the Bank; or (iii) subject the Bank to personal jurisdiction in any
jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by the Bank or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated hereby. 
 Section 10.05. Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as provided in this Article X, in accepting the trust hereby created the
Bank acts solely as Owner Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity and all Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall look only to the Trust for payment or
satisfaction thereof. 
 Section 10.06. U.S. Patriot Act. In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and
executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering (collectively, “Applicable Regulations”), the Owner Trustee is
required to obtain, verify and record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Owner Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to provide to the Owner Trustee, upon its request
from time to time, such identifying information and documentation as may be necessary in order to enable the Owner Trustee to comply with such Applicable Regulations. It is expressly agreed that the Owner Trustee shall have no duty to perform any
services hereunder for, on behalf of or for the benefit of, any party not having furnished such information as the Owner Trustee, in its sole discretion, determines to be necessary to comply with the Applicable Regulations.

Trustee; Appointment of Successor. 
 (a) The Owner Trustee may resign at any time by giving at least 60 days’ prior written
notice to the Board of Managers, such resignation to be effective on the acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee under Section 13.01(b) hereof approved by the Board of Managers. In addition, the Board of Managers may at any time
remove the Owner Trustee without cause by an instrument in writing delivered to the Owner Trustee, such removal to be effective upon the acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee under Section 13.01(b) hereof approved by the Board
of Managers. In case of the resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee, the Board of Managers shall use its best efforts promptly to appoint a successor Owner Trustee by an instrument signed by the Board of Managers. If no successor Owner Trustee
shall have been appointed within 60 days after the giving of written notice of such resignation or the delivery of the written instrument with respect to such removal, the Owner Trustee may, at the expense of the Owner(s), petition a court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. 
 (b) Any successor Owner Trustee, however appointed, shall execute
and deliver to the predecessor Owner Trustee and Board of Managers an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon such successor Owner Trustee, without further act, shall become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers,
duties and trusts of the predecessor Owner Trustee in the trusts hereunder with like effect as if originally named the Owner Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the written request of such successor Owner Trustee, such predecessor Owner Trustee
shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Owner Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, duties and trusts of such predecessor Owner Trustee, and such predecessor Owner
Trustee shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to such successor Owner Trustee all moneys or other property then held or subsequently received by such predecessor Owner Trustee upon the trusts herein expressed. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Owner Trustee shall at all times meet the requirements of Section 3807(a) of the Act. The
Owner Trustee shall at all times

(i) be authorized to exercise corporate trust powers and (ii) have (or shall have a parent that has) a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and shall be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If such corporation shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or
examining authority, then for the purpose of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any
time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 13.01(a); provided, however, that the Owner
Trustee will not be required to resign of the written consent of the Agent is obtained.

shall have the power to appoint one or more individuals or corporations either to act as co-trustee, or co-trustees, jointly with the Owner Trustee of all or any part of the Trust Property or to act as separate trustee or separate trustees of all or
any part of the Trust Property and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust Property or any part thereof, and such rights, powers, duties, trusts or obligations as the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section 13.02. 
 (b) Unless otherwise provided in the instrument appointing such
co-trustee or separate trustee, every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely: 
 (i) All rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations by this Agreement conferred upon the Owner Trustee in respect of the custody,
control or management of moneys, papers, securities and other personal property, shall be exercised solely by the Owner Trustee; 
 (ii) All rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the trustees shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee, or by the Owner Trustee and such co-trustee or co-trustees,
or separate trustee or separate trustees jointly, except to the extent that, under the law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or
acts, in which event such act or acts shall be performed by such co-trustee or co-trustees or separate trustee or separate trustees; 
  

 35 

 (iii) Any request in writing by the Owner Trustee to any co-trustee or separate trustee
to take or to refrain from taking any action hereunder shall be sufficient warrant for the taking, or the refraining from taking, of such action by such co-trustee or separate trustee;

appointed in the manner provided in this Section 13.02; 
 (vi) No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason
of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; 
 (vii) Any demand, request, direction, appointment, removal, notice,
consent, waiver or other action in writing executed by the Board of Managers and delivered to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee or separate trustee; and 
 (viii) Any moneys, papers, securities or other items of personal property received by any such co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder
shall forthwith, so far as may be permitted by law, be turned over to the Owner Trustee to be held pursuant to the terms hereof. 
 (c) Upon
the acceptance in writing of such appointment by any such co-trustee or separate trustee, it or he shall be vested with the estate, right, title and interest in the Trust Property, or portion thereof, and with such rights, powers, duties, trusts or
obligations, jointly or separately with the Owner Trustee, all as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment, subject to all the terms hereof. A copy of every such written acceptance shall be filed with the Owner Trustee. 
 (d) In case any co-trustee or separate trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, the estate, right, title and interest in the
Trust Property and all rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said co-trustee or separate trustee shall, so far as permitted by law, vest in and be exercised by the Owner Trustee unless and until a successor co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 13.02.

or liability of, or immunity or indemnity in favor of, the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the documents contemplated hereby to which the Owner Trustee is a party, or would cause or result in any conflict with or breach of any terms,

implied, shall be construed to give to any Person other than the Bank, the Owner Trustee, the Depositor, the Owners and the Agent any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim in the Trust Property or under or in respect of this Agreement or any

 EXECUTION COPY 
 LIMITED RECOURSE GUARANTY 
 This GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is made as of the 12th day of December, 2008, by Medallion Funding Corp. (the “Guarantor”),
in favor of Autobahn Funding Company LLC, as lender (the “Lender”), and DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, Frankfurt am Main, as agent (the “Agent”), with respect to that certain Loan and Security
Agreement, dated as the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among Medallion Taxi Loan Trust III (the “Borrower”), the Lender and the Agent.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement. 
 1.
Guaranty. (i) For value received and in consideration of any Advance, loan or financial accommodation of any kind whatsoever heretofore, now or hereafter made, given or granted to the Borrower by the Lender pursuant to the Loan
Agreement, the Guarantor unconditionally guarantees for the benefit of the Secured Parties the full and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of all Secured
Obligations now or hereafter existing under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, subject to the limit described in paragraph (iv) below. 
 (ii) At any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Guarantor shall pay to the Agent, on demand and in immediately available funds, an
amount equal to the Borrowing Base Deficiency at the time such demand is made, as calculated by the Agent (such calculation to be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), subject to the limit described in paragraph (iv) below. 

(iii) In addition, the Guarantor shall pay to the Agent on demand and in immediately available funds an amount equal to all reasonable fees, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees, costs and expenses) paid or incurred by the Agent or the Lender in: (1) endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Guarantor Payment
Amount from, or in prosecuting any action against, the Guarantor relating to this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby; (2) taking any action with respect to any security or collateral securing the Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder; or (3) preserving, protecting or defending the enforceability of, or enforcing, this Guaranty or its rights hereunder. In addition, the Guarantor further agrees to pay to the Agent and the Lender and reimburse the Agent and the
Lender for, on demand and in immediately available funds, interest on any amount due hereunder, from the date of demand under this Guaranty until paid in full at the Default Funding Rate. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate payments made by the Guarantor hereunder (including amounts paid pursuant to paragraphs (i) and
(ii) above but 

 
excluding amounts paid pursuant to paragraph (iii) above) shall not exceed the least of (x) 5% of the aggregate Net Principal Balance of the
Medallion Loans included in the Collateral at the time of the related Event of Default, (y) 5% of the Maximum Facility Amount and (z) 10% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Advances at the time of the related Event of
Default (any such payment due from the Guarantor hereunder in respect of a Borrowing Base Deficiency being a “Guarantor Payment Amount”). 
 (v) The Guarantor hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection. 
 2. Obligations Unconditional. The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall be unconditional, irrespective of: 
 (i) the validity, enforceability, avoidance or subordination of any of the Secured Obligations or any of the Loan Documents;

 (ii) the absence of any attempt by, or on behalf of, the Lender or the Agent to collect, or to take any other action to
enforce, all or any part of the Secured Obligations whether from or against the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Secured Obligations or any other party; 
 (iii) the election of any remedy by, or on behalf of, the Lender or the Agent with respect to all or any part of the Secured Obligations;

 (iv) the waiver, amendment, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by, or on behalf of, the Lender
or the Agent with respect to any provision of any of the Loan Documents; 
 (v) the failure of the Lender or the Agent to take
any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Secured Obligations or any rights as against any other guarantor of the Secured Obligations or any release of any collateral
security for or release of any other guarantor in respect of the Secured Obligations; 
 (vi) the election by, or on behalf
of, the Lender or the Agent, in any proceeding of the Borrower instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of
Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; 
 (vii) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Borrower,
as a debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
 (viii) the disallowance, under
Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of the Lender or the Agent against the Borrower for repayment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, including any amount due hereunder; 
 (ix) any actual or alleged fraud by any party (other than the Lender or the Agent); or 
  

 2 

 (x) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of the Borrower or a guarantor (other than the defense of payment or performance). 
 3. Representations, Warranties
and Covenants of the Guarantor. 
 (i) Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby remakes the representations
and warranties made by it in the Purchase Agreement.

that it will perform and observe each of the covenants and agreements required to be performed or observed by it pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 4. Enforcement; Application of Payments. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice,
against the Guarantor to obtain performance of and to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion, of the Guarantor Payment Amount, without first proceeding against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or against any
security or collateral for the Secured Obligations. Subject only to the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, the Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the application of payments and credits, if any, from the Guarantor, the
Borrower, any other guarantor or from any other party on account of the Secured Obligations or any other liability of the Guarantor to the Secured Parties. 
 5. Waivers. (i) The Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of the Borrower, protest or notice with
respect to the Secured Obligations, all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, the benefits of
all statutes of limitation, and all other demands whatsoever (and shall not require that the same be made on the Borrower as a condition precedent to the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder), and covenants that this Guaranty will not be
discharged, except by complete payment (in cash or as otherwise agreed by the Agent) of the Secured Obligations or the Guarantor Payment Amount. The Guarantor further waives all notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional
indebtedness arising from additional Advances extended to the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and also waives all notices that the principal amount, or any portion thereof, and/or any interest on any instrument or document evidencing all or
any part of the Secured Obligations is due, notices of any and all proceedings to collect from the maker, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or from any other party, and, to the extent permitted by
law, notices of exchange, sale, surrender or other handling of any security or collateral given to the Agent to secure payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations. 
 (ii) The Agent is hereby authorized, without notice or demand and without affecting the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, from time to time,
(a) with the agreement of the Borrower (if such agreement is required), to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or other terms relating to, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or to otherwise modify,
amend or change the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (b) to accept partial payments on all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (c) to take and hold security or 

  

 3 

 
collateral for the payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, this Guaranty, or any other guaranties of all or any part of the Secured
Obligations or other liabilities of the Borrower, (d) to exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security or collateral; (e) to apply such security or collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as in its discretion it
may determine; and (f) to settle, release, exchange, enforce, waive, compromise or collect or otherwise liquidate all or any part of the Secured Obligations, this Guaranty, any other guaranty of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, and
any security or collateral for the Secured Obligations or for any such guaranty. Any of the foregoing may be done in any manner, without affecting or impairing the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. 
 6. Setoff. At any time after all or any part of the Secured Obligations have become due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise), the Agent may,
to the extent of the Guarantor Payment Amount, setoff and apply toward the payment of all or any part of the Guarantor Payment Amount any moneys, credits or other property belonging to the Guarantor, at any time held by or coming into the possession
of the Agent or its Affiliates. 
 7. Financial Information. The Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed
of the financial condition of the Borrower and any and all endorsers and/or other guarantors of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured Obligations, or any part
thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and the Guarantor hereby agrees that neither the Lender nor the Agent shall have any duty to advise the Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the
event either the Lender or the Agent, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Guarantor, neither the Lender nor the Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to undertake any
investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (ii) to disclose any information which the Lender or the Agent, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or
(iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such information or any other information to the Guarantor. 
 8. No Marshalling;
Reinstatement. The Guarantor consents and agrees that none of the Lender, the Agent nor any party acting for or on behalf of the Lender or the Agent shall be under any obligation to marshall any assets in favor of the Guarantor or against or in
payment of any or all of the Secured Obligations. The Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations makes a payment or payments to the Agent, or the
Agent receives any proceeds of Collateral, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to the Borrower, the Guarantor, such other
guarantor or any other party, or their respective estates, trustees, receivers or any other party, including, without limitation, the Guarantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of
such payment or repayment, the part of the Secured Obligations which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the time immediately preceding such initial payment, reduction
or satisfaction. 
 9. Subrogation. Until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, the Guarantor (i) shall have no right
of subrogation with respect to such Secured Obligations and (ii)

  

 4 

 
waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Lender or the Agent now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all
or any part of the Secured Obligations or any other party, and the Guarantor waives any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured
Obligations or any other liability of the Borrower to the Lender or the Agent. 
 10. Subordination. (i) The Guarantor agrees
that any and all claims of the Guarantor against the Borrower, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or against any of their respective properties (collectively, the “Subordinated
Indebtedness”), shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash (or as otherwise agreed by the Agent), of all Secured Obligations of the Borrower (all such Secured Obligations of the Borrower
under the Loan Documents being the “Senior Secured Obligations”). Notwithstanding any right of the Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness, all rights, liens and
security interests of the Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any asset of the Borrower (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to the Agent to secure payment of all or any part of the Senior
Secured Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Lender and the Agent in such asset. 
 (ii) From
and after the occurrence of any Event of Default: 
 (a) The Guarantor shall have no right to possession of any asset of the
Borrower or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Senior Secured Obligations shall have been fully paid and satisfied and all financing arrangements between the Borrower, the Agent and
the Lender have been terminated. 
 (b) If all or any part of the assets of the Borrower, or the proceeds thereof, are subject
to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of the Borrower, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of
creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of the Borrower is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of the Borrower are sold, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in
cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any of the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be paid or delivered directly to the Agent for application to the Senior Secured Obligations, due or to
become due, until such Senior Secured Obligations shall have been fully paid and satisfied. 
 (c) The Guarantor hereby
irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Agent (as a present grant, effective the date hereof and subject only to the condition that an Event of Default exists) in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness to demand, sue for, collect and receive every
payment or distribution thereon and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of the Guarantor such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the Agent’s own name or in the name of the Guarantor or otherwise, as
the Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of this Guaranty. The 

  

 5 

 
Agent may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding, receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made thereon in
whatever form the same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any unpaid Senior Secured Obligations. 
 (d)
Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds of any of the foregoing be received by the Guarantor upon or with respect to the Subordinated Indebtedness following the occurrence of an Event of Default and prior to the
satisfaction of all of the Senior Secured Obligations and the termination of all financing arrangements between the Borrower and the Lender, the Guarantor shall (to the extent of the unpaid Senior Secured Obligations) receive and hold the same in
trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Agent and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Agent, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Senior
Secured Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as the property of the Agent. If the Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Agent, the Agent or any of its
officers or employees are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. 
 (iii) The Guarantor agrees that until the Senior Secured
Obligations have been paid in full (in cash or as otherwise agreed by the Agent) and satisfied (except for contingent indemnification obligations) and all financing arrangements between the Borrower and the Lender have been terminated, the Guarantor
will not assign or transfer to any other party any claim the Guarantor has or may have against the Borrower, without the prior written consent of the Agent. 
 11. Enforcement; Amendments; Waivers. No delay on the part of the Lender or the Agent in the exercise of any right or remedy arising under this Guaranty, the Loan Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or
otherwise with respect to all or any part of the Secured Obligations, the Collateral or any other guaranty of or security for all or any part of the Secured Obligations shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the
Lender or the Agent of any such right or remedy shall preclude any further exercise thereof. No modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Guaranty shall be binding upon the Lender or the Agent, except as expressly set forth in a
writing duly signed and delivered by the Lender or the Agent (as applicable). Failure by the Lender or the Agent at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by the Borrower, the Guarantor, any other guarantor of all or any part of
the Secured Obligations or any other party of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents now or at any time or times hereafter executed by such parties and delivered to the Lender or the Agent
shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Lender or the Agent at any time or times hereafter to demand strict performance thereof and such right shall not be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of the Lender, the Agent, or
their respective agents, officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in writing, directed and delivered to the Borrower or the Guarantor, as applicable, specifying such waiver, and is signed by the Lender or the Agent (as
applicable). No waiver of any Event of Default by the Lender or the Agent shall operate as a waiver of any other Event of Default or the same Event of Default on a future occasion, and no action by the Lender or the Agent permitted hereunder shall
in any way affect or impair the 

  

 6 

 
Lender’s or the Agent’s rights and remedies or the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty. Any determination by a court of competent
jurisdiction of the amount of any principal and/or interest owing by the Borrower to the Lender or the Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Guarantor irrespective of whether the Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such
determination was made. 
 12. Effectiveness; Termination. This Guaranty shall become effective upon its execution by the Guarantor
and shall continue in full force and effect and may not be terminated or otherwise revoked until the Final Payout Date. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Guarantor shall have any right under applicable law to terminate or revoke this Guaranty,
the Guarantor agrees that such termination or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation or termination, specifically referring hereto, signed by the Guarantor, is actually received by the Agent. Such notice shall
not affect the right and power of the Lender or the Agent to enforce rights arising prior to receipt thereof by the Agent. If the Lender grants, loans or takes other action after the Guarantor terminates or revokes this Guaranty but before the Agent
receives such written notice, the rights of the Agent with respect thereto shall be the same as if such termination or revocation had not occurred. 
 13. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor and upon its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and the Agent and their respective successors and assigns; all references
herein to the Borrower, to the Lender, to the Agent and to the Guarantor shall be deemed to include their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Guarantor may not assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder
without the prior written consent of the Lender and the Agent. The successors of the Guarantor and the Borrower shall include, without limitation, their respective receivers, trustees, debtors-in-possession or successor trustees. 
 14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION
5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES). 
 15. JURY WAIVER. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER. 
 16. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; FORUM NON CONVENIENS; SERVICE OR PROCESS.
EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH IN SECTION 17 BELOW, EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY OR, TO THE EXTENT SUCH
COURT LACKS JURISDICTION, THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND EACH WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON IT AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS BE MADE BY REGISTERED 

  

 7 

 
MAIL, AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED FIVE DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN DEPOSITED IN THE U.S. MAILS, POSTAGE PREPAID. EACH OF THE
PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND ANY OBJECTION TO VENUE OF ANY ACTION INSTITUTED HEREUNDER, AND CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY THE COURT.
NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR AFFECT ANY PARTY’S RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

 17. OTHER JURISDICTIONS; COUNTERCLAIMS. EACH OF THE LENDER AND THE AGENT SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROCEED AGAINST THE GUARANTOR OR
ITS REAL OR PERSONAL PROPERTY IN A COURT IN ANY LOCATION TO ENABLE THE AGENT TO OBTAIN PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE GUARANTOR OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER ENTERED IN FAVOR OF THE AGENT. THE GUARANTOR SHALL NOT ASSERT ANY
PERMISSIVE COUNTERCLAIMS IN ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY THE AGENT ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY. 
 18. Waiver of Bond.
The Guarantor waives the posting of any bond otherwise required of the Agent or the Lender in connection with any judicial process or proceeding to enforce any judgment or other court order entered in favor of the Agent or the Lender, or to enforce
by specific performance, temporary restraining order, or preliminary or permanent injunction, this Guaranty or any other agreement or document among any of the Agent, the Lender or the Guarantor. 
 19. Advice of Counsel. The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Agent and the Lender that it has discussed this Guaranty and, specifically,
the provisions of Sections 14 through 17 hereof, with its lawyers, provided that in no way shall the Guarantor’s failure to comply with the terms of this Guaranty give rise to any claim by any Person against the Guarantor’s lawyers.
