(e)           On

and warranties in Section 4.02 is true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date.

 

(f)            Except
as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and purchase of Collateral under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the
Seller or the Closing Date Seller; it being understood that the Seller and the Closing Date Seller shall be liable (individually and
not jointly) to the Buyer for all representations and warranties made by the Seller and the Closing Date Seller, respectively, pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to the Seller or the Closing Date
Seller for the credit risk of the Obligors.

 

(g)            In
connection with each Purchase of Collateral from the Closing Date Seller to the Buyer on the Closing Date as contemplated by this Agreement,
the Buyer hereby directs the Closing Date Seller to, and the Closing Date Seller hereby directs the Seller to, and the Seller agrees
that it will, Deliver in accordance with the Indenture, or cause to be Delivered in accordance with the Indenture (on behalf of the Buyer),

in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

 

(h)           The
Seller and/or the Closing Date Seller, as applicable, shall take such action requested by the Buyer, from time to time hereafter, that

connection with the Purchase by the Buyer of the Collateral as contemplated by this Agreement, with respect to the Collateral Purchased

has been purchased by the Closing Date Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, and the Seller agrees that it will indicate clearly and
unambiguously on and after the Closing Date in its financial statements that such Collateral is owned by the Buyer and is not available
to pay creditors of the Seller.

 

    -7-

     

    

 

(j)            The
Seller agrees to deliver to the Closing Date Seller and the Buyer on or before the Closing Date a computer file containing a true, complete
and correct Loan List (which shall contain the related Principal Balance, outstanding principal balance, loan number and Obligor name
for each Collateral Obligation) as of the Closing Date. Such file or list shall be marked as Schedule 1 to this Agreement, shall
be delivered to the Closing Date Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, as confidential and proprietary, and is hereby incorporated
into and made a part of this Agreement, as such Schedule 1 may be supplemented and amended from time to time.

 

(k)            In
a series of contemporaneous transactions on the Closing Date (i) the Warehouse Borrower shall, subject to the terms of the applicable
credit facility, if any, sell and/or distribute the Collateral Obligations owned by the Warehouse Borrower listed on Schedule 1
to the Seller (with respect to any distribution, in its capacity as sole member of the Warehouse Borrower), (ii) the Seller shall
transfer the Collateral Obligations listed on Schedule 1 to the Closing Date Seller, (iii) the Closing Date Seller shall
transfer the Collateral Obligations listed on Schedule 1 to the Buyer, (iv) as consideration for its acquisition of the Collateral
Obligations listed on Schedule 1 from the Closing Date Seller, the Buyer shall issue to the Closing Date Seller a portion of its
Subordinated Notes and (v) as consideration for its acquisition of the Collateral Obligations listed on Schedule 1 from the
Seller, the Closing Date Seller shall transfer such Subordinated Notes to the Seller’s wholly-owned subsidiary, as directed by
the Seller. The parties hereto intend for the transactions described in this Agreement to occur consistent with that certain no-action
letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated as of September 7, 2018.

 

(l)            For
administrative convenience, (i) Collateral Obligations being transferred from the Seller to the Closing Date Seller and then from
the Closing Date Seller to the Buyer may settle directly from the Seller to the Buyer, (ii) Collateral Obligations being transferred
first from the Warehouse Borrower to the Seller, second from the Seller to the Closing Date Seller, and third from the Closing Date Seller
to the Buyer, may settle directly from the Warehouse Borrower to the Buyer, (iii) Subordinated Notes being issued to the Closing
Date Seller and then being transferred to the Seller’s wholly-owned subsidiary at the direction of the Seller shall settle directly
from the Buyer to such wholly-owned subsidiary of the Seller and (iv) any of the steps or transfers of cash or assets described
in this clause (l) that take place on the same day may be made on a net basis (any amounts owing by one party may be offset by amounts
owed to such party, and vice versa).

 

(m)           It
is the intention of the parties hereto that the conveyance of all right, title and interest in and to the Collateral to the Buyer by
the Closing Date Seller and to the Closing Date Seller by the Seller on the Closing Date as provided in this Section 2.01
is intended and shall, in each and every case, constitute an absolute sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer of ownership of such
Collateral conveying good title, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) and that the Collateral shall not be part of
the Seller’s or the Closing Date Seller’s, as applicable, bankruptcy estate in the event of any bankruptcy or insolvency
proceedings with respect to the Seller or the Closing Date Seller, as applicable. Furthermore, it is not intended that any such conveyance
be deemed a pledge of the Collateral Obligations and the other Collateral to the Closing Date Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, to
secure a debt or other obligation of the Closing Date Seller or the Seller, as applicable.

 

    -8-

     

    

 

(n)           If,
however, notwithstanding the intention of the parties set forth in Section 2.01(m), any of the conveyances provided for in
this Section 2.01 by the Seller or the Closing Date Seller, as applicable, are determined to be a transfer to secure indebtedness,
then this Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9
of the UCC. With respect to the Collateral related to Schedule 1 transferred on the Closing Date hereunder, (A) the Seller
hereby grants to the Closing Date Seller (and the Closing Date Seller hereby assigns to the Buyer) and the Closing Date Seller hereby
grants to the Buyer, as the case may be, a duly perfected, first priority “security interest” within the meaning of Article 9
of the UCC in all of its right, title and interest in and to such Collateral, now existing and hereafter created, to secure the prompt
and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of such Collateral, (B) the
Buyer, as assignee secured party, shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other
rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law with respect thereto, which rights and remedies
shall be cumulative, and (C) the Seller authorizes the Buyer, the Closing Date Seller authorizes the Buyer, and, so long as the
Payment in Full Date has not occurred, each of the Seller and the Closing Date Seller authorize the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the
Secured Parties, to file UCC financing statements and amendments, as necessary, naming the Seller as “debtor”, the Closing
Date Seller as “debtor” or “assignor secured party”, as applicable, the Buyer as “assignor secured party”
or “assignee secured party” and the Collateral Trustee as “assignee secured party,” or similar applicable designations,
describing such Collateral, in each jurisdiction that the Buyer deems necessary in order to protect the security interests in the Collateral
granted under this Section 2.01(n).

 

(o)           The
Seller, the Warehouse Borrower and the Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the conveyance of the Closing Date Participations
is being effectuated pursuant to this Agreement instead of an assignment of the Seller’s or the Warehouse Borrower’s, as
applicable, legal interest in and title to each of the Closing Date Participations (the transfer of which to the Buyer will not be effective
until the individual assignments of each Closing Date Participation become effective) because the conditions precedent under the related
Underlying Instruments to the transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Seller’s or the Warehouse Borrower’s, as applicable,
legal interest in and title to the Closing Date Participations may otherwise not be fully satisfied as of the Closing Date and (ii) the
conveyance of the Closing Date Participations hereunder shall have the consequence that the Seller or the Warehouse Borrower, as applicable,
does not have an equitable interest in the Closing Date Participations and the Buyer holds 100% of the equitable interest in the Closing
Date Participations. The Buyer has prepared individual assignments consistent with the requirements of the related Underlying Instruments
and provided them to the Persons required under such Underlying Instruments, which assignments will become effective in accordance with
such Underlying Instruments upon obtaining certain consents thereto or upon the passage of time or both. Upon receipt by the Seller or
the Buyer of the effective assignment of any Closing Date Participation participated pursuant to this Section 2.01, the Warehouse
Borrower, for value received, hereby sells to the Seller, and the Seller hereby purchases from the Warehouse Borrower, and the Seller,
for value received, hereby sells to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases from the Seller all of the Warehouse Borrower’s or
Seller’s, as applicable, right, title and interest in, to and under such Closing Date Participation.

 

    -9-

     

    

 

Section 2.02         Purchase
Price.

 

The purchase price for each
Collateral Obligation sold pursuant to this Master Loan Sale Agreement shall be a dollar amount equal to the fair market value thereof
as determined by the Seller, the Closing Date Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, and shall be on terms no less favorable to the
buyer than such buyer would then obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that is not an Affiliate (in each
case, the “Purchase Price”).

 

Section 2.03     Payment

in connection therewith and in accordance with the terms and conditions of each such Closing Date Participation and consistent with the
terms of this Agreement. The Seller and the Warehouse Borrower shall pay any transfer fees and other expenses payable in connection with

the Seller or the Warehouse Borrower has not effected an Elevation of a Collateral Obligation on or before the day that is 90 days from

an Elevation, the Seller or the Warehouse Borrower and the Buyer agree that the Participation Interests in each of the Closing Date Participations
shall elevate automatically and immediately to an assignment and all of the Seller’s or the Warehouse Borrower’s rights,
title, interests and ownership of such Closing Date Participations shall vest in Buyer. The Seller and the Warehouse Borrower shall be
deemed to have consented and agreed to Elevation for each of the Closing Date Participations upon the execution of this Agreement. The
Seller and the Warehouse Borrower agrees that, following any such date, the Buyer shall be permitted to take any and all action necessary
to effectuate an Elevation and/or finalize an assignment of any of the Closing Date Participations, and in furtherance of the foregoing,
effective immediately upon such date, the Seller and the Warehouse Borrower hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Buyer, with full
power of substitution, as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in its name, place and stead,

a power coupled with an interest, and shall survive and not be affected by the bankruptcy or insolvency or dissolution of the Seller
or the Warehouse Borrower.

 

Section 2.07     Limitation
on Sales to Seller and Affiliates.

 

At any time after the Closing
Date, the Buyer may sell any Collateral Obligation to the Seller or any affiliate thereof; provided that such transaction is conducted
in an arm’s length transaction in the ordinary course of business and the value of any such transferred Collateral Obligation shall
be the mid-point between the “bid” and “ask” prices provided by a nationally recognized independent pricing service
or, if unavailable or determined by the Collateral Manager to be unreliable, the fair market value of such Collateral Obligation as reasonably
determined by the Collateral Manager, and such Affiliate shall acquire such Collateral Obligation for a price equal to the value so determined;
provided further that an aggregate amount of Collateral Obligations not exceeding 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance may be

Agreement, the Buyer represents and warrants to the Closing Date Seller and the Seller that:

 

(a)            Due
Organization. The Buyer is a limited liability company duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
with full power and authority to own and operate its assets and properties, conduct the business in which it is now engaged and to execute
and deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

 

(b)            Due
Qualification and Good Standing. The Buyer is in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Buyer is duly qualified
to do business and, to the extent applicable, is in good standing and has obtained or will obtain all material governmental licenses
and approval in Delaware and in each other jurisdiction in which the nature of its business, assets and properties, including the performance
of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party requires such qualification, except
where the failure to be so qualified, maintain good standing or obtain such license or approval would not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(c)            Due
Authorization; Execution and Delivery; Legal, Valid and Binding; Enforceability. The execution and delivery by the Buyer of, and
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the other instruments,
certificates and agreements contemplated hereby or thereby are within its powers and have been duly authorized by all requisite action
by it and have been duly executed and delivered by it and constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable against it
in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered
in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

(d)           Non-Contravention.
None of the execution and delivery by the Buyer of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, the consummation
of the transactions herein or therein contemplated, or performance and compliance by it with the terms, conditions and provisions hereof
or thereof, will (i) contravene in any material respect or result in any breach of, any of the terms and provisions of, its articles
of incorporation and memorandum of association, (ii) conflict with or contravene (A) any applicable law, (B) any indenture,
agreement or other contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or any of its assets, including any Related Contract, or (C) any
order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or any of its assets or properties or (iii) result
in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, or permit the acceleration of any obligation or liability in, or but for
any requirement of the giving of notice or the passage of time (or both) would constitute such a conflict with, breach or violation of,
or default under, or permit any such acceleration in, any contractual obligation or any agreement or document to which it is a party
or by which it or any of its assets are bound (or to which any such obligation, agreement or document relates), in each case under this
clause (d) which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

    -20-

     

    

  

(e)            Governmental
Authorizations; Private Authorizations; Governmental Filings. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation
of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof,
is required to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of any Transaction Documents to which
the Buyer is a party or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated thereby other than those that have already been duly
made or obtained and remain in full force and effect or those recordings and filings in connection with the Liens granted to the Collateral
Trustee under the Transaction Documents, except for any order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing,
recording or registration with, or exemption, that, if not obtained, would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(f)            Place
of Business; No Changes. The Buyer’s location (within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC) is the State of Delaware. The
Buyer has not changed its name nor its location, within the four months preceding the Closing Date.

Treatment. Other than for accounting and tax purposes, the Buyer has treated the transfer of Collateral Obligations hereunder to
the Buyer for all purposes as a sale by the Seller or the Closing Date Seller, as applicable, and purchase by the Buyer on all of its

    -6-

     

    

 

(c)          Closing
Date Participations. It is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that certain of the Collateral Obligations being transferred
hereunder from the Seller to the Buyer (through the Intermediate Seller) are not expected to settle on the Closing Date. Therefore, in
order to grant the economic benefits associated with such Collateral Obligations to the Buyer on the Closing Date, (i) the Seller

herein, and the Buyer agrees to purchase from the Seller, a 100% undivided participation interest in the Seller’s interests in
each Collateral Obligation listed on Schedule 1 and identified as a “participation” (each such Collateral Obligation,
a “Closing Date Participation”), which interest shall be understood to include all the Seller’s right, title,
benefit and interest in and to any interest accruing from and after the Closing Date, any payments, proceeds or other period distributions
to the extent provided in Section 2.04 (the “Income Collections”), the legal title to which is held by
the Seller, and (ii) the Buyer hereby acquires the Closing Date Participations and assumes and agrees to perform and comply with
all assumed obligations of the Seller with respect thereto. The parties hereby agree to treat the transfer of the Closing Date Participations
by the Seller to the Buyer as a sale and purchase (through the Intermediate Seller and in accordance with the various steps described
in this Agreement) on all of their respective relevant books and records.

 

(d)          Transfer
from the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer on each Purchase Date after the Closing Date.

 

(i)            Subject
to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (including the conditions to purchase set forth in Article III),
on each Purchase Date occurring after the Closing Date, with respect to the items of Collateral conveyed on such Purchase Date by the
Seller to the Intermediate Seller hereunder, the Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Intermediate
Seller, and the Intermediate Seller hereby purchases and takes from the Seller all right, title and interest (whether now owned or hereafter
acquired or arising and wherever located) of the Seller (including all obligations of the Seller as lender to fund any Revolving Collateral
Obligation or Delayed Drawdown Collateral Obligation conveyed by the Seller to the Intermediate Seller hereunder which obligations the
Intermediate Seller hereby assumes) in such Collateral.

 

(ii)           Subject

the Buyer hereunder which obligations the Buyer hereby assumes) in such Collateral.

 

    -7-

     

    

 

(e)          From
and after each Purchase Date, the Collateral listed on the relevant Loan List shall be deemed to be Collateral hereunder.

 

(f)           On
any Purchase Date with respect to the Collateral to be acquired by the Buyer on that date, the Seller shall be deemed to, and hereby
does, certify to the Buyer and to the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as of such Purchase Date, that each of the
representations and warranties in Section 4.02 is true and correct in all material respects as of such Purchase Date.

 

(g)          Except
as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and purchase of Collateral under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the
Seller or the Intermediate Seller; it being understood that the Seller and the Intermediate Seller shall be liable (individually and
not jointly) to the Buyer for all representations and warranties made by the Seller and the Intermediate Seller, respectively, pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to the Seller or the Intermediate
Seller for the credit risk of the Obligors.

 

(h)          In
connection with each Purchase of Collateral from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer on and after the Closing Date as contemplated by
this Agreement, the Buyer hereby directs the Intermediate Seller to, and the Intermediate Seller hereby directs the Seller to, and the
Seller agrees that it will, Deliver in accordance with the Indenture, or cause to be Delivered in accordance with the Indenture (on behalf
of the Buyer), to the Custodian (with a copy to the Collateral Trustee), each Collateral Obligation being transferred to the Buyer on
such Purchase Date in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

 

(i)           The
Seller and/or the Intermediate Seller, as applicable, shall take such action requested by the Buyer, from time to time hereafter, that
may be necessary or appropriate to ensure that the Buyer has an enforceable ownership interest and its assigns under the Indenture have
an enforceable and perfected security interest in the Collateral purchased by the Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(j)           In
connection with the Purchase by the Buyer of the Collateral as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) with respect to the Collateral
Purchased on the Closing Date in accordance with this Agreement, each of the Seller and the Intermediate Seller, as applicable, agrees
that it will, at its own expense, indicate clearly and unambiguously in its computer files on and after the Closing Date that such Collateral
has been purchased by the Intermediate Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, (ii) with respect to the Collateral purchased on
and after the Closing Date from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer in accordance with this Agreement, each of the Seller and the Intermediate
Seller, as applicable, agrees that it will, at its own expense, indicate clearly and unambiguously in its computer files on and after
each such Purchase that such Collateral has been purchased by the Intermediate Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, and in each case
under clause (i) or clause (ii), the Seller agrees that it will indicate clearly and unambiguously on and after the related Purchase
Date in its financial statements that such Collateral is owned by the Buyer and is not available to pay creditors of the Seller.

 

    -8-

     

    

 

(k)          The
Seller agrees to deliver to the Intermediate Seller and the Buyer on or before the Closing Date and to the Intermediate Seller and the
Buyer on or before each Purchase Date after the Closing Date a computer file containing a true, complete and correct Loan List (which
shall contain the related Principal Balance, outstanding principal balance, loan number and Obligor name for each Collateral Obligation)
as of the Closing Date or related Purchase Date, as applicable. Such file or list shall be marked as Schedule 1 or Schedule 2,
as applicable, to this Agreement, shall be delivered to the Intermediate Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, as confidential and
proprietary, and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement, as such Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 may
be supplemented and amended from time to time. In addition, with respect to each Collateral Obligation sold by the Seller to the Buyer
hereunder after the Closing Date (through the Intermediate Seller and in accordance with the various steps described in this Agreement),
the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer (through the Intermediate Seller) an assignment of such Collateral Obligation substantially in
the form of Exhibit A hereto.

 

(l)           In
a series of contemporaneous transactions on the Closing Date (i) the Seller shall transfer the Collateral Obligations (as set forth
on Schedule 1) to the Intermediate Seller, (ii) the Intermediate Seller shall transfer the Collateral Obligations listed
on Schedule 1 to the Buyer and (iii) as consideration for its acquisition of the Collateral Obligations listed on Schedule
1 from the Intermediate Seller, the Buyer shall distribute to the Intermediate Seller a portion of the Subordinated Notes and the
proceeds from the issuance and incurrence, as applicable, of the other classes of Secured Debt.

 

(m)         For
administrative convenience, (i) Collateral Obligations being transferred from the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and from the
Intermediate Seller to the Buyer may settle directly from the Seller to the Buyer, (ii) Collateral Obligations being transferred
first from the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and second from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer may settle directly from the Seller
to the Buyer, (iii) Collateral Obligations being acquired by the Seller from any seller and then sold first by such seller to the
Seller and second by the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and third from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer may settle directly from
such seller to the Buyer and (iv) any of the steps or transfers of cash or assets described in this clause (m) that take place
on the same day may be made on a net basis (any amounts owing by one party may be offset by amounts owed to such party, and vice versa).

 

(n)          It
is the intention of the parties hereto that the conveyance of all right, title and interest in and to the Collateral to the Buyer by
the Intermediate Seller and to the Intermediate Seller by the Seller as provided in this Section 2.01 is intended and shall,
in each and every case, constitute an absolute sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer of ownership of such Collateral conveying good
title, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) and that the Collateral shall not be part of the Seller’s or the
Intermediate Seller’s, as applicable, bankruptcy estate in the event of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings with respect to
the Seller or the Intermediate Seller, as applicable. Furthermore, it is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed a pledge of
the Collateral Obligations and the other Collateral to the Intermediate Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, to secure a debt or other
obligation of the Intermediate Seller or the Seller, as applicable.

 

    -9-

     

    

 

(o)          If,
however, notwithstanding the intention of the parties set forth in Section 2.01(n), any of the conveyances provided for in
this Section 2.01 by the Seller or the Intermediate Seller, as applicable, are determined to be a transfer to secure indebtedness,
then this Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9
of the UCC. With respect to the Collateral related to Schedule 1 hereunder, (A) the Seller hereby grants to the Intermediate
Seller (and the Intermediate Seller hereby assigns to the Buyer), and the Intermediate Seller hereby grants to the Buyer, as the case
may be, a duly perfected, first priority “security interest” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC in all of its
right, title and interest in and to such Collateral, now existing and hereafter created, to secure the prompt and complete payment of
a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of such Collateral, (B) the Buyer shall have,
in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor
under the UCC and other applicable law with respect thereto, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and (C) the Seller authorizes
the Buyer, the Intermediate Seller authorizes the Buyer, and, so long as the Payment in Full Date has not occurred, each of the Seller
and Intermediate Seller authorize the Collateral Trustee on behalf of the Secured Parties to file UCC financing statements and amendments,
as necessary, naming the Seller as “debtor,” the Intermediate Seller as “debtor” or “assignor secured party,”
as applicable, the Buyer as “assignor secured party” or “assignee secured party” and the Collateral Trustee as
 “assignee secured party” or similar applicable designations, each describing such Collateral, in each jurisdiction that the
Buyer deems necessary in order to protect the security interests in the Collateral granted under this Section 2.01(o).

 

(p)          The
Seller, the Intermediate Seller and the Buyer hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the conveyance of the Closing Date Participations
is being effectuated pursuant to this Agreement instead of an assignment of the Seller’s legal interest in and title to each of
the Closing Date Participations (the transfer of which to the Buyer will not be effective until the individual assignments of each Closing
Date Participation become effective) because the conditions precedent under the related Underlying Instruments to the transfer, assignment
and conveyance of the Seller’s legal interest in and title to the Closing Date Participations may otherwise not be fully satisfied
as of the Closing Date and (ii) the conveyance of the Closing Date Participations hereunder shall have the consequence that the
Seller does not have an equitable interest in the Closing Date Participations and the Buyer holds 100% of the equitable interest in the
Closing Date Participations. The Buyer has prepared individual assignments consistent with the requirements of the related Underlying
Instruments and provided them to the Persons required under such Underlying Instruments, which assignments will become effective in accordance
with such Underlying Instruments upon obtaining certain consents thereto or upon the passage of time or both. Upon receipt by the Seller
or the Buyer of the effective assignment of any Closing Date Participation participated pursuant to this Section 2.01, the
Seller, for value received, hereby sells to the Intermediate Seller, and the Intermediate Seller hereby purchases from the Seller, and
the Intermediate Seller, for value received, hereby sells to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases from the Intermediate Seller,
all of the Seller’s or Intermediate Seller’s, as applicable, right, title and interest in, to and under such Closing Date
Participation.

 

Section 2.02          Purchase
Price.

 

The purchase price for each
Collateral Obligation sold pursuant to this Master Loan Sale Agreement shall be a dollar amount equal to the fair market value thereof
as determined by the Seller, the Intermediate Seller and/or the Buyer, as applicable, and shall be on terms no less favorable to the
buyer than such buyer would then obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that is not an Affiliate (in each
case, the “Purchase Price”).

 

    -10-

     

    

 

Section 2.03          Payment
of Purchase Price. 

 

(a)          The
Purchase Price for any Collateral related to Schedule 1 acquired by the Buyer from the Intermediate Seller (including the Closing
Date Participations) on the Closing Date shall be paid by a combination of cash and the issuance of a portion of the Subordinated Notes
by the Buyer to the Intermediate Seller and by subsequent transfer of such cash from the Intermediate Seller to the Seller. With respect
to any Purchase Date after the Closing Date, to the extent the value of the Collateral transferred by the Seller to the Intermediate
Seller and from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer exceeds the value of the cash and a portion of the Subordinated Notes received by
the Intermediate Seller or Seller (as applicable) for such assets, such excess shall be deemed to constitute a capital contribution from
the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and from the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer. To the extent the value of the cash and a portion
of the Subordinated Notes received by the Intermediate Seller or Seller (as applicable) from the Buyer exceeds the value of the assets
transferred by the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and by the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer, such excess shall be deemed to constitute
a dividend from the Buyer to the Intermediate Seller and the Intermediate Seller to the Seller. The Purchase Price for any Collateral
acquired by the Buyer from the Intermediate Seller on any Purchase Date after the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid
in a combination of (A) immediately available funds in cash and by subsequent transfer of such cash from the Intermediate Seller
to the Seller and (B) if the Buyer does not have sufficient funds in cash to pay the full amount of the Purchase Price, by means
of a capital contribution by the Seller to the Intermediate Seller and by a subsequent capital contribution by the Intermediate Seller
to the Buyer.

 

(b)          The
Purchase Price for any Collateral purchased by the Buyer to be settled directly with a subsidiary of the Seller on any Purchase Date
after the Closing Date shall be paid in immediately available funds, which may comprise, if the Buyer does not have sufficient funds
in cash to pay the full amount of the Purchase Price, amounts contributed by the Seller to Intermediate Seller and by the Intermediate
Seller to the Buyer.

 

(c)          Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, the Seller may on any Purchase Date occurring after the Closing Date elect to designate all or
a portion of the Collateral proposed to be transferred to the Buyer on such date as a capital contribution to the Intermediate Seller
and in turn a capital contribution by the Intermediate Seller to the Buyer. In such event, the cash portion of the Purchase Price payable
with respect to such transfer shall be reduced by that portion of the Purchase Price of the Collateral that was so contributed; provided
that Collateral contributed to the Buyer as capital shall constitute Collateral for all purposes of this Agreement.

 

(d)          The
Seller, in connection with each Purchase hereunder relating to any Collateral, shall be deemed to have certified, and hereby does certify,
with respect to the Collateral to be purchased by the Buyer on such day, that its representations and warranties contained in Article IV
are true and correct on and as of such day, with the same effect as though made on and as of such day.

 

(e)          Upon
the payment of the Purchase Price for any Purchase, title to the Collateral included in such Purchase shall vest in the case of Collateral
related to Schedule 1 initially in the Intermediate Seller and then in the Buyer as provided herein, whether or not the conditions
precedent to such Purchase and the other covenants and agreements contained herein were in fact satisfied; provided that the Intermediate
Seller and the Buyer, as applicable, shall not be deemed to have waived any claim it may have under this Agreement for the failure by
the Seller or the Intermediate Seller, as applicable, in fact to satisfy any such condition precedent, covenant or agreement.

 

    -11-

     

    

 

(f)           Collateral
Obligations may be purchased or acquired from time to time by the Buyer from the Seller or any of its Affiliates hereunder only if (i) the
terms and conditions thereof are no less favorable to the Buyer than the terms it would obtain in a comparable, timely purchase or acquisition
with a non-Affiliate and (ii) the transactions are effected in accordance with all applicable laws.

 

Section 2.04          Income
Collections on Closing Date Participations.

 

(a)          With
respect to each Closing Date Participation, the Buyer shall acquire all rights to Income Collections that, as of the Closing Date, are
accrued but unpaid with respect to the period from and after the Closing Date.

 

(b)          If
at any time after the Closing Date the Seller receives any Income Collections, the Seller shall deliver such Income Collection promptly
to the Buyer. If at any time after the Closing Date the Seller receives any other payment (including principal, interest (to the extent
relating to the period from and after the Closing Date) or any other amount) with respect to a Closing Date Participation, the Seller
shall deliver such payment promptly to the Buyer, and in the case of any such payment of interest, the Seller shall provide a written
notice to the Buyer at the time of such delivery setting forth calculations and certifying as to the portion of any interest received
that relates to the period from and after the Closing Date.

 

(c)          Without
limiting the foregoing, the Seller agrees (i) until the Elevation of each Closing Date Participation has been completed, to maintain
its existing custodial arrangements and bank accounts established to receive proceeds of such Closing Date Participation and (ii) to
remit to the Buyer, promptly (but not more than three Business Days) after receipt of such payment and identification thereof, each payment
received in connection with each Closing Date Participation to which the Buyer is entitled in accordance with Section 2.01.

 

Section 2.05          Elevation
of the Closing Date Participations.

 

(a)          Subject
to the terms and provisions of the applicable Closing Date Participation and of applicable law, the Seller shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to effect an Elevation, as soon as reasonably practicable, with respect to each such Closing Date Participation and take such
action (including the execution and delivery of an assignment agreement) as shall be mutually agreeable in connection therewith and in
accordance with the terms and conditions of each such Closing Date Participation and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The
Seller and shall pay any transfer fees and other expenses payable in connection with an Elevation and the Buyer will reimburse the Seller
for half of such fees and expenses after receipt of an invoice therefor from the Seller detailing such amounts. The Buyer shall be responsible
for any expenses of administering each Closing Date Participation prior to its Elevation. At Elevation, the Seller shall deliver such
assignment and the credit documentation with respect to the related Closing Date Participation in its possession to or as directed by
the Buyer.

 

    -12-

     

    

 

(b)          If
the Seller has not effected an Elevation of a Collateral Obligation on or before the day that is 90 days from the Closing Date for whatever
reason or if at any time prior thereto the Seller is dissolved prior to effecting an Elevation, the Seller and the Buyer agree that the
Participation Interests in each of the Closing Date Participations shall elevate automatically and immediately to an assignment and all
of the Seller’s rights, title, interests and ownership of such Closing Date Participations shall vest in Buyer. The Seller shall
be deemed to have consented and agreed to Elevation for each of the Closing Date Participations upon the execution of this Agreement.
The Seller agrees that, following any such date, the Buyer shall be permitted to take any and all action necessary to effectuate an Elevation
and/or finalize an assignment of any of the Closing Date Participations, and in furtherance of the foregoing, effective immediately upon
such date, the Seller hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Buyer, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful agent
and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in its name, place and stead, to sign, execute, certify, swear to, acknowledge, deliver,
file, receive and record any and all documents that the Buyer reasonably deems appropriate or necessary in connection with any Elevation
or finalization of an assignment of any of the Closing Date Participations. In addition, the Seller, effective as of the date hereof,
hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Buyer, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact,
with full power and authority in its name, place and stead, to sign, execute, certify, swear to, acknowledge, deliver, file, receive
and record any and all documents that the Buyer reasonably deems appropriate or necessary to direct the obligor or agent bank with respect
to any Closing Date Participations to deposit Income Collections directly into an account chosen by the Buyer. The foregoing powers of
attorney are hereby declared to be irrevocable and a power coupled with an interest, and shall survive and not be affected by the bankruptcy
or insolvency or dissolution of the Seller.

 

Section 2.06          Limitation
on Sales to Seller and Affiliates.

 

At any time after the Closing
Date, the Buyer may sell any Collateral Obligation to the Seller or any affiliate thereof; provided that such transaction is conducted
in an arm’s length transaction in the ordinary course of business and the value of any such transferred Collateral Obligation shall
be the mid-point between the “bid” and “ask” prices provided by a nationally recognized independent pricing service
or, if unavailable or determined by the Collateral Manager to be unreliable, the fair market value of such Collateral Obligation as reasonably
determined by the Collateral Manager, and such Affiliate shall acquire such Collateral Obligation for a price equal to the value so determined;
provided further that an aggregate amount of Collateral Obligations not exceeding 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance may be
sold or otherwise transferred to the Seller or an affiliate of the Seller that is not a bankruptcy remote specifical purpose entity.

to be obtained, effected or given by the Seller in connection with the transfer of an ownership interest or security interest in each
Collateral Obligation to the Intermediate Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full
force and effect.

to the Intermediate Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, (y) the grant of a first priority perfected security interest in, to and
under each Collateral Obligation pursuant to the Indenture by the Buyer and (z) the termination of this Agreement and the Indenture.
Upon discovery by the Seller, the Intermediate Seller or the Buyer of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties,
the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other and to the Collateral Trustee immediately upon
obtaining knowledge of such breach.

binding, and enforceable against a party when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) an
