allocated to one or more initial Interest Periods or Rollover Interest Periods maturing on the same
date shall be combined and allocated to a single Rollover Interest Period at the end of such
initial Interest Periods or Rollover Interest Periods. All outstanding Pool B Loans allocated to
one or more initial Interest Periods or Rollover Interest Periods maturing on the same date shall
be combined and allocated to a single Rollover Interest Period at the end of such initial Interest
Periods or Rollover Interest Periods. Each Rollover Interest Period shall commence on, and
include, the Remittance Date following the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period
(or, if applicable, on an Early Interest Period Termination Date) and shall terminate on, and
include, the day immediately prior to the next occurring Remittance Date.

          (b) The interest rate per annum (the “Interest Rate”) applicable to any Loan for any
Interest Period shall be equal to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate; provided, however,
that if the Lender shall have notified the Borrower that a Eurodollar Disruption Event has
occurred, the Interest Rate for such Loan shall be equal to the Base Rate until such Eurodollar
Disruption Event has ceased, at which time the Interest Rate shall again be equal to the Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing:

          (c) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Program Termination Event, the
applicable Interest Rate for all Interest Periods in effect at the time of such occurrence shall
convert to, and for all Interest Periods that come into effect during the continuance of any Event
of Default shall be, the Default Funding Rate;

          (d) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Pool A Termination Event, the
applicable Interest Rate for all Interest Periods with respect to all Pool A Loans in effect at the
time of such occurrence shall convert to, and for all Interest Periods with respect to all Pool A
Loans that come into effect during the continuance of any Pool A Termination Event shall be, the
Default Funding Rate; and

          (e) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Pool B Termination Event, the
applicable Interest Rate for all Interest Periods with respect to all Pool B Loans in effect at the
time of such occurrence shall convert to, and for all Interest Periods with respect to all Pool B
Loans that come into effect during the continuance of any Pool B Termination Event shall be, the
Default Funding Rate.

     SECTION 2.04 Remittance Procedures. Subject to the proviso set forth in Section
2.04(c), the Servicer, as agent for the Lender, with the prior written consent of the
Collateral Agent, shall instruct the Lender’s Bank and, if the Servicer fails to do so, the
Collateral Agent shall instruct the Lender’s Bank, to apply funds on deposit in the Collection
Account as described in this Section 2.04.

          (a) Interest and Breakage Fees. On each Business Day (including any Remittance
Date), the Servicer shall, and, if the Servicer fails to do so, the Lender may direct the Lender’s
Bank to, retain in the Collection Account for transfer at the further direction of the Lender or
any duly authorized agent of the Lender (whether on such day or on a subsequent day) collected
funds in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest through such day on the Loans not so
previously retained and the amount of any accrued and unpaid Breakage Fees owed to the Lender on

32

 

such day. On or before the last day of each Interest Period, the Lender shall notify the Servicer
of the accrued and unpaid interest for such Interest Period and the Servicer shall, on the last day
of each Interest Period, direct the Lender’s Bank to pay collected funds set aside in respect of
accrued and unpaid interest pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) to the Lender (or the designee
of the Lender) in respect of payment of such accrued and unpaid interest for such Interest Period.
On any Business Day on which an amount is set aside in respect of Breakage Fees pursuant to this
Section 2.04(a), the Servicer shall direct the Lender’s Bank to pay such funds to the
Lender in payment of such Breakage Fees.

          (b) Interest Period Loan Principal Repayment. The Servicer shall, and if the
Servicer fails to do so the Lender may, by 10:00 a.m. (St. Paul, Minnesota time) on the last day of
each Interest Period that is not a Remittance Date, direct the Lender’s Bank to transfer collected
funds held by the Lender’s Bank in the Collection Account on such date, to pay the Lender in
payment (or partial payment) of the outstanding principal amount of all Loans allocated to such
Interest Period, in an amount equal to the least of (i) the amount of such collected funds held in
the Collection Account other than funds set aside pursuant to Section 2.04(a), (ii) the
aggregate outstanding principal
amount of Loans allocated to such Interest Period, (iii) if no Program Termination Event shall
have occurred and be continuing, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the excess, if any, of the
Facility Amount immediately prior to such distribution, calculated solely with respect to Loans
secured by Pool A Receivables over the Pool A Borrowing Base and (B) the excess, if any, of the
Facility Amount immediately prior to such distribution, calculated solely with respect to Loans
secured by Pool B Receivables over the Pool B Borrowing Base (with respect to Pool A Loans and
Pool B Loans collectively, after giving effect to any Borrowing made on such date and any
distributions of amounts on deposit in the Collection Account made on such date) or (iv) if no
Program Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing, an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the Facility Amount immediately prior to such distribution over the lesser of (A) the
Borrowing Base and (B) the Borrowing Limit (after giving effect to any Borrowing made on such date
and any distributions of amounts on deposit in the Collection Account made on such date).

          (c) Remittance Date Transfers From Collection Account. The Servicer shall, with the
prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and if the Servicer fails to do so the Collateral
Agent shall, by 10:00 a.m. (St. Paul, Minnesota time) on each Remittance Date, direct the Lender’s
Bank to transfer collected funds held by the Lender’s Bank in the Collection Account which were
remitted to the Collection Account during the Collection Period with respect to such Remittance
Date (“Available Funds”), in the following amounts and priority; provided,
however, that if the Lender’s Bank does not receive such instruction from (i) the Servicer
(accompanied by the Collateral Agent’s written consent) or (ii) the Collateral Agent by 10:00 a.m.
(St. Paul, Minnesota time) on such Remittance Date, subject to the provisions of the Discrepancy
Procedure, the Lender’s Bank shall apply such funds in accordance with the information calculated
by the Servicer on the related Monthly Remittance Report:

	 	(i)	 	to the Borrower, in an amount equal to such funds which were paid by
Obligors with respect to their obligation under the related Contracts to pay any
taxes (it being agreed by the Borrower that such amount shall be promptly paid to
the taxing authorities entitled thereto);

	 	(ii)	 	to the related Qualifying Swap Counterparty under each Qualifying
Interest Rate Swap, in an amount equal to (and for the payment of) all amounts

a Servicer Default and the appointment of the Backup Servicer as the Servicer
hereunder and (y) the Custodian, the Custodian’s Fee and (z) the Lender’s Bank, the
Lender’s Bank Fee;

	 	(iv)	 	at any time after the occurrence of a Servicer Default and the

accrued and unpaid as of the last day of the immediately 

33

 

	 	 	 	preceding Fee Period plus
(2) any Transition Costs not previously reimbursed to the Backup Servicer plus (3)
the Active Backup Servicer’s Indemnified Amounts;

	 	(v)	 	to the Lender in an amount equal to (and for the pro rata payment of)
(A) the Fees which are due and payable on such Remittance Date pursuant to the
terms of the Fee Letter and (B) any interest on any Loan which is accrued and
unpaid as of the last day of the immediately preceding Fee Period;

	 	(vi)	 	at any time prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Default and the

should be insufficient to pay in full such sum), without duplication, of:

	 	(x)	 	any Borrowing Base Deficiency;
	 
	 	(y)	 	the excess of the aggregate Facility Amount hereunder, calculated solely
with respect to Loans secured by Pool A Receivables, over the Pool A Borrowing Base;

	 	(z)	 	the excess of the aggregate Facility Amount hereunder, calculated solely
with respect to Loans secured by Pool B Receivables, over the Pool B Borrowing Base;

	 	(viii)	 	on a pro rata basis, (A) to the Servicer in an amount equal to any Servicer

from the Borrower to the Lender or any Affected Party hereunder for the account of
such parties as applicable (other than those specified in clauses (ix) through
(xii) below);

	 	(ix)	 	on or after the occurrence of the Program Termination Date (but prior
to any Program Termination Cure Event with respect to the Program Termination Event

repay the outstanding principal amount of all Pool A Loans in full;

	 	(xi)	 	on or after the occurrence of a Pool B Termination Event with respect
to any Underlying Originator, to the Lender for the repayment of Pool B Loans
related to such Underlying Originator in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) all
remaining Available Funds in the Collection Account and (B) an amount necessary to
repay the outstanding principal amount of all Pool B Loans related to such
Underlying Originator in full;

	 	(xii)	 	to the related Qualifying Swap Counterparty under each Qualifying

Qualifying Interest Rate Swap; and

	 	(xiii)	 	to the order of the Borrower, any remaining amounts.

34

 

          (d) Borrower Deficiency Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 2.04 or in any other provision in this Agreement, if, on any day prior to
the Collection Date, the Facility Amount shall exceed the Borrowing Limit, then the Borrower shall
remit to the Lender, prior to any Borrowing and in any event no later than the close of business of
the Lender on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, no later than the close of business
of the Lender on the next succeeding Business Day), a payment (to be applied by the Lender to repay
Loans selected by the Lender, in its sole discretion), in such amount as may be necessary to reduce
the Facility Amount to an amount less than or equal to the Borrowing Limit. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.04 or in any other provision in this
Agreement, if, on any day prior to the Collection Date, the Facility Amount shall exceed the
Borrowing Base, then the Borrower shall (X) remit to the Lender, prior to any Borrowing and in any
event no later than the close of business of the Lender on such day (or if such day is not a
Business Day, no later than the close of business of the Lender on the next succeeding Business
Day), a payment (to be applied by the Lender to repay Loans selected by the Lender, in its sole
discretion), in such
amount as may be necessary to reduce the Facility Amount to an amount less than or equal to
the Borrowing Base or (Y) Pledge additional Eligible Receivables hereunder, prior to any Borrowing
and in any event no later than the close of business of the Lender on such day (or if such day is
not a Business Day, no later than the close of business of the Lender on the next succeeding
Business Day) in such amount as may be necessary to increase the Borrowing Base to an amount equal
to or greater than the Facility Amount.

          (e) Pool A Deficiency Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 2.04 or in any other provision in this Agreement, if, on any day prior to
the Collection Date, the aggregate Facility Amount hereunder, calculated solely with respect to
Loans secured by Pool A Receivables, would exceed the Pool A Borrowing Base, then the Borrower
shall remit to the Lender, prior to any Borrowing and in any event no later than the close of
business of the Lender on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, no later than the close
of business of the Lender on the next succeeding Business Day), a payment (to be applied by the
Lender to repay Loans with respect to Pool A Receivables selected by the Lender, in its sole
discretion), in such amount as may be necessary to reduce such excess to zero.

          (f) Pool B Deficiency Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 2.04 or in any other provision in this Agreement, if, on any day prior to
the Collection Date, the aggregate Facility Amount hereunder, calculated solely with respect to
Loans secured by Pool B Receivables, would exceed the Pool B Borrowing Base, then the Borrower
shall remit to the Lender, prior to any Borrowing and in any event no later than the close of
business of the Lender on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, no later than the close
of business of the Lender on the next succeeding Business Day), a payment (to be applied by the
Lender to repay Loans with respect to Pool B Receivables selected by the Lender, in its sole
discretion), in such amount as may be necessary to reduce such excess to zero.

          (g) Instructions to the Lender’s Bank. All instructions and directions given to the
Lender’s Bank by the Servicer, the Borrower or the Lender pursuant to this Section 2.04
shall be in writing (including instructions and directions transmitted to the Lender’s Bank in
electronic format), and such written instructions and directions shall be delivered with a written
certification that such instructions and directions are in compliance with the provisions of this
Section 2.04. The Servicer and the Borrower shall immediately transmit to the Lender by
telecopy a copy of all instructions and directions given to the Lender’s Bank by such party
pursuant to this Section 2.04. The Lender shall immediately transmit to the Servicer and
the Borrower by telecopy a copy of all instructions and directions given to the Lender’s Bank by
the Lender, pursuant to this Section 2.04.

     SECTION 2.05 Security Deposit Account.

          (a) On or before the date hereof, the Borrower shall enter into a Security Deposit Account
Agreement and open and maintain a segregated trust account (the “Security Deposit Account”)
at the Lender’s Bank, for the receipt of amounts representing any Security Deposits with respect to
any Pool A Contract by the related Obligor. The Servicer shall promptly deposit into the Security
Deposit Account, all Security Deposits related to Pledged Pool A Receivables which are in the
possession of, or come into the possession of, the Servicer or the Originator. Monies received in
the Security Deposit Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments at the written direction of
the Servicer or the Lender (as determined in accordance with the Security Deposit Account
Agreement) during the term of this Agreement, and any income or other gain realized from such
investment shall be held in the Security Deposit Account, subject to disbursement and withdrawal as
herein provided. No such Permitted Investment shall mature

35

 

later than the Business Day preceding
the next following Remittance Date and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity.
Monies shall be subject to withdrawal in accordance with Section 2.05(d) hereof.

          (b) The Servicer shall provide to the Borrower monthly written confirmation of investments of
funds held in the Security Deposit Account, describing the Permitted Investments in which such
amounts have been invested. Any funds not so invested shall be insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation.

          (c) If any amounts invested as provided in Section 2.05(a) hereof shall be subject to
disbursement from the Security Deposit Account as set forth in Section 2.05(d) hereof, the
Servicer shall cause such investments of such Security Deposit Account to be sold or otherwise
converted to cash to the credit of such Security Deposit Account. The Servicer shall not be liable
for any investment loss resulting from investment of money in the Security Deposit Account in any
Permitted Investment in accordance with the terms hereof (other than in its capacity as obligor
under
any Permitted Investment and other than to the extent such loss results from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of the Servicer).

          (d) Disbursements from the Security Deposit Account shall be made, to the extent funds
therefore are available, only as follows (and with the prior written consent of the Collateral
Agent in the case of clause (i) below; provided, however, that if the
Lender’s Bank receives the Servicer’s direction in accordance with clause (i) below but
does not receive such written consent of the Collateral Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. New York time on
the Business Day prior to any Remittance Date, subject to the provisions of the Discrepancy
Procedure, the Lender’s Bank shall disburse such funds in accordance with the information
calculated by the Servicer on the related Monthly Remittance Report):

	 	(i)	 	for deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with the direction
of the Servicer prior to 2:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day prior to any
Remittance Date to the extent that the Servicer, in accordance with the terms of a
Pool A Contract, has determined that amounts in respect of a Security Deposit shall
be applied as full or partial Recoveries or, in its discretion, as a full or
partial Scheduled Payment under such Pool A Contract;

	 	(ii)	 	the Security Deposit with respect to a Pledged Pool A Receivable shall
be paid to or upon the order of the Servicer at any time that the Pool A Contract
with respect to which such Security Deposit has been made is no longer a Pledged
Pool A Receivable, whether through maturity of such Pool A Contract or repurchase
by the Servicer, for further disposition by the Servicer in accordance with the
terms of the related Pool A Contract or applicable law; and

	 	(iii)	 	any amounts remaining in the Security Deposit Account upon the
Collection Date shall be distributed to or at the direction of the Servicer for
further disposition in accordance with the terms of the related Contract or
applicable law.

     SECTION 2.06 Cash Reserve Account.

          (a) From time to time after the date hereof, the Borrower may enter into one or more Cash
Reserve Account Agreements and open and maintain a segregated trust account (any such account, a
“Cash Reserve Account”) at the Lender’s Bank, for the receipt of amounts representing any
Cash Reserves funded with respect to any Pool B Contract. The Servicer shall promptly deposit into
the Cash Reserve Account, all Cash Reserves related to Pledged Pool B Receivables which are in the
possession of, or come into the possession of, the Servicer or the Originator. Monies received in
any Cash Reserve Account shall be invested in Permitted Investments at the written direction of the
Servicer or the Lender (as determined in accordance with the Cash Reserve Account Agreement) during
the term of this Agreement, and any income or other gain realized from such investment shall be
held in such Cash Reserve Account, subject to disbursement and withdrawal as herein provided. No
such Permitted Investment shall mature later than the Business Day preceding the next following
Remittance Date and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. Monies shall be
subject to withdrawal in accordance with Section 2.06(d) hereof.

36

 

          (b) The Servicer shall provide to the Borrower monthly written confirmation of investments of
funds held in each Cash Reserve Account, describing the Permitted Investments in which such amounts
have been invested. Any funds not so invested shall be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation.

          (c) If any amounts invested as provided in Section 2.06(a) hereof shall be subject to
disbursement from a Cash Reserve Account as set forth in Section 2.06(d) hereof, the
Servicer shall cause such investments of such Cash Reserve Account to be sold or otherwise
converted to cash to the credit of such Cash Reserve Account. The Servicer shall not be liable for
any investment loss resulting from investment of money in the Cash Reserve Account in any Permitted
Investment in accordance with the terms hereof (other than in its capacity as obligor under any
Permitted Investment and other than to the extent such loss results from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Servicer).

          (d) Disbursements from any Cash Reserve Account shall be made, to the extent funds therefore
are available, only as follows:

	 	(i)	 	for deposit in the Collection Account in accordance with the direction
of the Servicer prior to 2:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day prior to any
Remittance Date to the extent that the Servicer, in accordance with the terms of a
Pool B Contract, has determined that amounts in respect of a Cash Reserve shall be
applied as full or partial Recoveries or, in its discretion, as a full or partial
Scheduled Payment under such Pool B Contract;

	 	(ii)	 	the Cash Reserve with respect to a Pool B Contract shall be paid to or
upon the order of the Servicer at any time that the related Pool B Loan has been
repaid in full and the Pool B Contract with respect to which such Cash Reserve has
been made is no longer a Pledged Receivable, whether through maturity of such
Contract or repurchase by the Servicer, for further disposition by the Servicer in
accordance with the terms of the related Pool B Contract or applicable law; and

	 	(iii)	 	any amounts remaining in the Cash Reserve Account upon the Collection
Date shall be distributed to or at the direction of the Servicer for further
disposition in accordance with the terms of the related Pool B Contract or
applicable law.

     SECTION 2.07 Payments and Computations, Etc. (a) All amounts to be deposited or paid
by the Borrower or the Servicer to the Lender hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance
with the terms hereof no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day when due in lawful
money of the United States in immediately available funds to the Collection Account or such other
account as is designated by the Lender. The Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to
the Lender interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder (whether owing by the
Borrower or the Servicer) at the Base Rate, plus 2%, payable on demand; provided,
however, that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law. Such interest shall be for the account of the Lender. Any Obligation hereunder
shall not be reduced by any distribution of any portion of Collections with respect to any Pledged
Receivable if at any time such distribution is rescinded or returned by the Lender to the Borrower
or any other Person for any reason. All computations of interest and all computations of Breakage
Fee and other fees hereunder (including, without limitation, the Fees, the Active Backup Servicer’s
Fee, the Standby Backup Servicer’s Fee, the Custodian’s Fee and the Servicing Fee) shall be made on
the basis of a year of 360 days (or 365 or 366 days for interest calculated at the Base Rate) for
the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last day) elapsed.

          (b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business
Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or any fee payable
hereunder, as the case may be; provided, however, that with respect to the
calculation of interest, such extension of time shall not be included in more than one Interest
Period.

          (c) If any Borrowing requested by the Borrower and approved by the Lender pursuant to
Section 2.02 is not for any reason whatsoever, except as a result of the gross negligence
or wilful misconduct of the Lender or an Affiliate thereof, made or effectuated, as the case may
be, on the date specified therefor, the Borrower shall

37

 

indemnify the Lender against any loss, cost
or expense incurred by the Lender related thereto (other than any such loss, cost or expense solely
due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or an Affiliate thereof),
including, without limitation, any loss (including cost of funds and reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or
other funds acquired by the Lender to fund Loans or maintain Loans during such Interest Period.
The Lender shall provide to the Borrower documentation setting forth the amounts of any loss, cost
or expense referred to in the previous sentence, such documentation to be conclusive absent
manifest error.

     SECTION 2.08 Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay the Lender certain fees (the
“Fees”) in the amounts and on the dates set forth in a fee letter (the “Fee
Letter”), dated the date hereof, among the Borrower and the Lender, as may be amended,
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

          (b) All of the Fees payable pursuant to this Section 2.08 (other than Fees payable on
the date hereof) shall be payable solely from amounts available for application pursuant to, and
subject to the priority of, payment set forth in, Section 2.04.

     SECTION 2.09 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) If, due to either (i) the
introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or
increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation (including,
without limitation, any law or regulation resulting in any interest payments paid to a Lender under
this Agreement being subject to United States withholding tax) or (ii) the compliance with any
guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having
the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender or any Affiliate,
successor or assign or participant thereof (each of which shall be an “Affected Party”) of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan (or any reduction of the amount of any
payment (whether of principal, interest, fee, compensation or otherwise) to any Affected Party
hereunder), as the case may be, the Borrower shall, from time to time, within ten days after
written demand complying with Section 2.09(c) by the Lender, on behalf of such Affected
Party, pay to the Lender, on behalf of such Affected Party, additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Affected Party for such increased costs or reduced payments.

          (b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law,
guideline, rule or regulation, directive, request or accounting principle or (ii) the compliance by
any Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive, request or accounting
principle from any central bank, other governmental authority, agency or accounting authority
(whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by an Affected
Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party, as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder or any related document or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a
level below that which any such Affected Party could have achieved but for such introduction,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to
capital adequacy), by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to be material, then, from time to
time, after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting
forth the basis of such demand), the Lender shall be paid, on behalf of such Affected Party (from
Collections with respect to Pledged Receivables pursuant to, and subject to the priority of payment
set forth in, Section 2.04), such additional amounts as will compensate such Affected Party
for such reduction.

          (c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.09, the Affected Party
may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. The Lender, on behalf of any Affected
Party making a claim under this Section 2.09, shall submit to the Borrower a certificate
setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computations of such additional or
increased costs, which certificate shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

          (d) If, as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in
Section 2.09(a) or 2.09(b), any Affected Party (that is a Lender) is required to
compensate a bank or other financial institution (including, without limitation, any Affiliate of
Morgan Stanley) providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such
Affected Party in connection with this Agreement, then, upon demand by such Affected Party, the
Borrower shall pay, in accordance with Section 2.04, to such Affected Party such additional
amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such Affected Party for any amounts paid by it,
and shall notify each Qualified Swap Counterparty of such payment.

38

 

     SECTION 2.10 Collateral Assignment of Agreements. The Borrower hereby collaterally
assigns to the Collateral Agent (and its successors and assigns) for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, all of the Borrower’s right and title to and interest in, to and under (but not any
obligations under) the Purchase and Sale Agreement, each Qualifying Interest Rate Swap, the
Contract related to each Pledged Receivable, all other agreements, documents and instruments
evidencing, securing or guarantying any Pledged Receivable and all other agreements, documents and
instruments related to any of the foregoing (the “Assigned Documents”). Without limiting
any obligation of the Servicer hereunder, the Borrower confirms and agrees that the Collateral
Agent (or any designee thereof, including, without limitation, the Servicer), following an Event of
Default or a Program Termination Event, shall have the right to enforce the Borrower’s rights and
remedies under each Assigned Document, but without any obligation on the part of the Collateral
Agent or any of its Affiliates to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower under any such
Assigned Document. In addition, each of the Servicer and the Borrower confirms and agrees that the
Servicer and the Borrower will, upon receipt of notice or discovery thereof, promptly send to the
Collateral Agent a notice of (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant
under any such Assigned Document or (ii) any event or occurrence that, upon notice, or upon the
passage of time or both, would constitute such a breach, in each case, immediately upon learning

outstanding principal amount of any Loans advanced hereunder shall be accompanied by all interest
accrued with respect thereto and the Prepayment Premium with respect to the applicable Prepayment
Amount and Prepayment Date. If such notice is given, the principal amount specified in such notice
(together with all interest accrued with respect thereto and the Prepayment Premium related

40

 

required pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(vii), Section

Section 7.01 hereof shall not be considered an optional prepayment and no Prepayment Premium shall
be required to be paid in respect thereof.

          (b) Without limiting any other provision hereof, the Borrower agrees to indemnify the Lender,

making any optional prepayment pursuant to Section 2.15(a) hereof, (ii) any default by the Borrower
in making any optional prepayment pursuant to Section 2.15(a) hereof after notice of such
prepayment has been given, (iii) any failure by the Borrower to take a Loan hereunder after notice

any Loans by the Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited
to, any Breakage Fees, any cost, loss or expense arising related to the termination (in whole or in
part) or amendment of any Qualifying Interest Rate Swap and from interest or fees payable by the
Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to advance or maintain the Loans hereunder.
Indemnification pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall
include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.

          (c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Borrower shall not terminate or amend
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or reduce the Borrowing Limit prior to the
Facility Maturity Date without the Lender’s prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in
the Lender’s sole discretion.

     SECTION 2.16 Increase of Borrowing Limit. The Borrower may, upon 30 days’ prior
written notice to the Lender (with a simultaneous copy to the Initial Qualifying Swap
Counterparty), request that the Borrowing Limit be increased, which request may be granted in the

any breach of the representations, warranties and/or covenants contained in Section 4.01,

notice to the Borrower of any such
breach that also constitutes a LEAF Purchase Event under and as defined in the Purchase and

Receivable, the Borrower shall remit funds in an amount equal to the Release Price for such Pledged
Receivable to the Collection Account on the date of such resale. It is understood and agreed that
the obligation of the Borrower to resell to the Originator, and the obligation of the Originator to
purchase, any Receivables which are adversely effected by a LEAF Purchase Event is not intended to,
and shall not, constitute a guaranty of the collectibility or payment of any Receivable which is
not collected, not paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial
inability to pay of the related Obligor.

     SECTION 4.04 Representations and Warranties of the Lender. The Lender hereby

ARTICLE V.

GENERAL COVENANTS OF THE BORROWER AND THE SERVICER

     SECTION 5.01 General Covenants. (a) The Borrower will observe all corporate
procedures required by its certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement and the
laws of its jurisdiction of formation. The Borrower will maintain its limited liability company
existence in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation and will promptly obtain
and thereafter maintain qualifications to do business as a foreign limited liability company in any
other state in which it does business and in which it is required to so qualify under applicable
law.

          (b) The Borrower will at all times ensure that (i) its members act independently and in its
interests and in the interests of its creditors, (ii) it shall at all times maintain at least one
independent manager who (A) is not currently and has not been during the five years preceding the
date of this Agreement an officer, director or employee of the Borrower or an Affiliate thereof
(other than acting as independent manager or in a similar capacity) and (B) is not a member of the
Borrower or an Affiliate thereof (other than a special independent member of the Borrower or a
limited purpose corporation, business trust, partnership or other entity organized for the purpose
of acquiring, financing or otherwise investing, directly or indirectly, in assets or receivables
originated, owned or serviced by Originator or an Affiliate of any of them), (iii) its assets are
not commingled with those of Originator or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, (iv) its members
duly authorize all of its limited liability company actions, (v) it maintains separate and accurate
records and books of account and such books and records are kept separate from those of Originator
and any other Affiliate of the Borrower and (vi) it maintains minutes of the meetings and other

48

 

proceedings of the members. Where necessary, the Borrower will obtain proper authorization from
its members for limited liability company action.

          (c) The Borrower will pay its operating expenses and liabilities from its own assets.

          (d) The Borrower will not have any of its indebtedness guaranteed by Originator or any
Affiliate thereof. Furthermore, the Borrower will not hold itself out, or permit itself to be held
out, as having agreed to pay or as being liable for the debts of Originator, and the Borrower will
not engage in business transactions with Originator, except on an arm’s-length basis. The Borrower
will not hold Originator out to third parties as other than an entity with assets and liabilities
distinct from the Borrower. The Borrower will cause any of its financial statements consolidated
with those of Originator to state that the Borrower is a separate corporate entity with its own
separate creditors who, in any liquidation of the Borrower, will be entitled to be satisfied out of
the Borrower’s assets prior to any value in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s
equity holders. The Borrower will not act in any other matter that could foreseeably mislead
others with respect to the Borrower’s separate identity.

          (e) In its capacity as Servicer, LEAF Financial will, to the extent necessary, maintain
separate records on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lender, act in accordance with
instructions and directions, delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, from the Borrower,
and/or the Lender in connection with its servicing of the
Pledged Receivables hereunder, and will ensure that, at all times when it is dealing with or
in connection with the Pledged Receivables in its capacity as Servicer, it holds itself out as
Servicer, and not in any other capacity.

          (f) The Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) shall, to the extent required by
applicable law, disclose all material transactions associated with this transaction in appropriate
regulatory filings and public announcements. The annual financial statements of Resource America
(including any consolidated financial statements) shall disclose the effects of the transactions
contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement as a sale of Receivables, Related Security and
Other Conveyed Property to the Borrower, and the annual financial statements of the Borrower shall
disclose the effects of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a loan to the extent
required by and in accordance with GAAP, it being understood that the Loans to the Borrower under
this Agreement will be treated as debt on the consolidated financial statements of Resource
America.

          (g) The Borrower shall take all other actions necessary to maintain the accuracy of the
factual assumptions set forth in the legal opinions of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP, as special
counsel to the Originator and the Borrower, issued in connection with the Purchase and Sale
Agreement and relating to the issues of substantive consolidation and true conveyance of the
Pledged Receivables.

          (h) Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, neither the
Borrower nor the Servicer shall sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise
dispose of, or create or (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) suffer to
exist any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to, any Pledged Receivable, any Collections related
thereto or any other Pledged Assets related thereto, or upon or with respect to any account to
which any Collections of any Receivable are sent, or assign any right to receive income in respect
thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Borrower
shall not create or suffer to exist any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to any of the Borrower’s
assets. Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Transaction Document, the Servicer
shall not create, or (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) permit any action
to be taken by any Person to create, any Adverse Claim upon or with respect to any of the
Borrower’s assets.

          (i) The Borrower will not merge or consolidate with, or convey, transfer, lease or otherwise
dispose of (whether in one transaction or in a series of transactions), all or substantially all of
its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired) other than with respect to asset dispositions
in connection with an optional prepayment pursuant to Section 2.15(a) hereof, or acquire all or
substantially all of the assets or capital stock or other ownership interest of any Person without
the prior written consent of the Lender.

          (j) The Borrower will not account for or treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise)
the transactions contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement in any manner other than a sale
and absolute assignment of Receivables, Related Security and Other Conveyed Property by Originator
to the Borrower constituting a “true conveyance” for bankruptcy purposes.

49

 

          (k) The Borrower will not amend, modify, waive or terminate any terms or conditions of the
Purchase and Sale Agreement without the written consent of the Lender, and shall perform its
obligations thereunder.

          (l) The Borrower will not make any amendment, modification or other change to its certificate
of formation or limited liability company agreement that would materially and adversely affect the
Lender without the Lender’s prior written consent, and shall notify the Lender prior to making any
amendment, modification or other change to its certificate of formation or limited liability
company agreement prior to the effectiveness thereof.

          (m) Neither the Borrower nor (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) the
Servicer will make or allow to be made any material amendment to the Credit and Collection Policy
without the prior written consent of the Lender (and the Lender hereby agrees to take commercially
reasonable efforts to respond to any request for such consent in a timely manner). Neither the
Borrower nor (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) the Servicer will make or
allow to be made any non-material amendment to the Credit and Collection Policy without the prior
written consent of the Lender; provided, that if the Lender has not responded to a written request
for such consent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof, the Lender shall be deemed to
have consented to such request.

          (n) If the Borrower or the Servicer receives any Collections with respect to any Pledged
Receivable, the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, will remit such Collections to the
Collection Account within one (1) Business Day of the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s identification
thereof.

          (o) The Servicer shall cause:

	 	(i)	 	the Obligor under each Contract to remit all payments owed or otherwise
payable (including, without limitation, amounts payable by the Obligor in its role
as a servicer of Underlying Contracts sold to the Originator) by such Obligor under
such Contract (or any servicer on its behalf) to the Lockbox or by wire transfer to
the Lockbox Account;

	 	(ii)	 	the Lockbox Bank to deposit all Collections with respect to any Pledged
Receivable in the Lockbox into the Lockbox Account on each Business Day; and

	 	(iii)	 	the Lockbox Bank to remit all Collections with respect to any Pledged
Receivable on deposit in the Lockbox Account (or any sub-account thereof or any
related account) to the Collection Account on each Business Day.

          (p) The Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian four (4) Business
Days prior to the initial Borrowing Date hereunder and three (3) Business Days prior to any other
Borrowing Date hereunder a Notice of Pledge and each item listed in the definition of Receivable
File with respect to the Receivables being Pledged hereunder on such Borrowing Date.

          (q) The Borrower shall deliver to the Lender on each Purchase Date a copy of the Assignment
delivered to it on such Purchase Date.

          (r) Each of the Servicer (and, if the Servicer is not LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof,
upon the Servicer gaining knowledge thereof) and the Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender of
the occurrence of any Servicer Default, Event of Default, Program Termination Event, Pool A
Termination Event or Pool B Termination Event (any event that, if it continues uncured, would, with
lapse of time or notice or lapse of time and notice, constitute any Servicer Default, Event of
Default, Program Termination Event, Pool A Termination Event or Pool B Termination Event).

          (s) Each of the Servicer (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) and the
Borrower shall take all actions (in the case of Obligor Collateral with an original cost over
$100,000) and all commercially reasonable actions (in the case of Obligor Collateral with an
original cost of $100,000 or less) necessary to ensure that the Originator is at all times named as
loss payee under each Insurance Policy with respect to Obligor Collateral related to a Pledged
Receivable.

50

 

          (t) On each Borrowing Date, a Qualifying Interest Rate Swap, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Lender, shall be duly executed by the Borrower and a Qualifying Swap
Counterparty, and any amounts required to have been paid thereunder as of such Remittance Date
shall have been paid and any obligations required to have been performed thereunder as of such
Remittance Date shall have been performed.

          (u) Each of the Servicer (if the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) and the
Borrower shall take all actions necessary to ensure that each Pool B Contract purchased by the
Borrower under the Purchase and Sale Agreement contains “Seller Events of Default” or similar
events of default (“Parallel Defaults”) which (i) would occur if a Pool B Termination Event
with respect to the related Underlying Originator occurred, (ii) would entitle the Borrower, as
assignee of the Originator’s rights under such Contract, to deliver, or cause the delivery of,
redirection notices which would require all Underlying Obligors to make all payments under
Underlying Contracts sold or pledged to the Originator under such Contract to the Lockbox Account
or an account designated by the Borrower or such Servicer and (iii) would entitle the Borrower, as
assignee of the Originator’s rights under the Contract, to receive 100% of all payments under the
Underlying Contracts sold or pledged to the Originator under such Contract in the event of such a
Parallel Default. If a Parallel Default or any “Seller Events of Default” or similar events of
default under a Pool B Contract related to the financial condition of the applicable Underlying
Originator, the tangible net worth of the applicable Underlying Originator or any cross
default (a Parallel Default or any such “Seller Events of Default” or similar events of default
being referred to herein as “Critical Defaults”) shall occur, then each of the Servicer (if
the Servicer is LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) and the Borrower shall take all actions
necessary to ensure (x) that no such Critical Default is waived and (y) the prompt delivery to all
related Underlying Obligors of a redirection notice which would require such Underlying Obligors to
make all payments under Underlying Contracts sold or pledged to the Originator under such Contract
to the Lockbox Account. Each of the Servicer and the Borrower shall notify the Lender promptly
upon learning of the occurrence of any “Seller Event of Default” or similar event of default under
any Pool B Contract.

          (v) The Borrower shall not acquire any debt obligation or interest therein if, after giving
effect to such acquisition, more than 40 percent of the debt obligations or interests therein held
by the Borrower (as determined under the rules of Treasury Regulation 301.7701(i)-1(c)) would
consist of real estate mortgages or interests therein (as defined in Treasury Regulation
301.7701(i)-1(d)).

          (w) In connection with satisfying the Titling Requirements, the Servicer shall take
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian in accordance
with this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement, the original certificate of title for each Vehicle
registered in Florida.

          (x) The Pledged Receivables shall not be refinanced with any proceeds of the Netbank
Facility.

          (y) Within the applicable time period required by any agreement, document or instrument
related to a credit facility, provided to (i) LEAF Financial, Resource America, any LEAF Managed
Entity or any of such Person’s respective Affiliates that have entered into any credit facility
where such Person is a lender (a “LEAF Affiliate Borrower”) or (ii) any subsidiary of LEAF
Financial, Resource America or any LEAF Managed Entity, (each, a “LEAF Credit Facility
Document”), but in any event no later than two days following the Servicer’s knowledge thereof,
the Servicer shall notify the Collateral Agent and each Lender if (i) LEAF Financial, Resource
America, any of their respective subsidiaries or any LEAF Affiliate Borrower fails to observe or
perform any covenant or agreement under any LEAF Credit Facility Document or (ii) any event of
default, servicer default, unmatured event of default or unmatured servicer default (each such
event set forth in clause (i) or (ii), an “Other Default”) occurs under any
such LEAF Credit Facility Document, whether or not such Other Default is called, waived or cured.

          (z) LEAF Financial shall not and shall not cause any subordinated Debt of LEAF Financial or
any of its consolidated subsidiaries, in either case, which has been issued to such Person’s
parent, to be accelerated prior to the Facility Maturity Date.

     SECTION 5.02 Delivery of Servicing Agreement Electronic Images to the Backup
Servicer. On or prior to November 26, 2008, the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer
electronic images of all existing servicing agreements and vendor contracts related to the Pledged
Receivables (“Servicing Agreement Electronic Images”) in an electronic format mutually
acceptable to the Servicer and the Backup Servicer. On each Backup
Servicer

51

following November 26, 2008, the Servicer shall deliver to the Backup Servicer all Servicing
Agreement Electronic Images in an electronic format mutually acceptable to the Servicer and the
Backup Servicer with respect to all then existing servicing agreements and vendor contracts which

ARTICLE VI.

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING; CERTAIN COVENANTS

     SECTION 6.01 Appointment and Designation of the Servicer. (a) The Borrower and the
Lender hereby appoint the Person designated by the Lender from time to time, pursuant to this
Section 6.01 (the “Servicer”), as their agent to service, administer and collect
the Pledged Receivables and otherwise to enforce their respective rights and interests in and under
the Pledged Receivables and the other Pledged Assets. The Servicer shall collect such Pledged
Receivables under the conditions referred to above by means of the collection procedures as set
forth in the Credit and Collection Policy, to the extent consistent with the provisions of this
Article VI. Unless otherwise specified by the Borrower, the Servicer’s authorization under
this Agreement shall terminate on the Collection Date.
Until the Lender gives notice to the Borrower of a designation of a new Servicer upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Servicer Default, or consents in writing to the
appointment by the Borrower of a new Servicer, LEAF Financial is hereby designated as, and hereby
agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer, pursuant to the terms hereof at all
times until the earlier of the Lender’s designation of the Backup Servicer or any other Person as
the new Servicer (upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Servicer Default), the
delivery by the Lender of its written consent to the appointment by the Borrower of a new Servicer
or the Collection Date. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Servicer Default,
the Lender may at any time designate as Servicer the Backup Servicer, or any other Person with
demonstrated experience in servicing equipment leases and loans, to succeed LEAF Financial or any
successor Servicer, on the condition in each case that any such Person so designated shall agree to
perform the duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof.

          Each of the Borrower and LEAF Financial hereby grants to any successor Servicer an irrevocable
power of attorney to take any and all steps in the Borrower’s, LEAF Financial’s or the Servicer’s
name, as applicable, and on behalf of the Borrower or LEAF Financial, necessary or desirable, in
the determination of such successor Servicer, to service, administer or collect any and all Pledged
Receivables including, without limitation, to make withdrawals from the Security Deposit Account
pursuant to Section 2.05 and any Cash Reserve Account pursuant to Section 2.06. In
accordance therewith, each of the Borrower and LEAF Financial shall deliver an executed power of
attorney in the form of Exhibit H hereto to each of the Backup Servicer and the Collateral
Agent.

          (b) The Servicer is hereby authorized to act for the Borrower and the Lender and, in such
capacity, shall manage, service, administer and arrange collections on the Pledged Receivables and
perform the other actions required by the Servicer under this Agreement for the benefit of the
Lender. The Servicer agrees that its servicing of the Pledged Receivables shall be carried out in
accordance with customary and usual procedures of institutions which service equipment lease and
loan contracts and receivables and, to the extent more exacting, the degree of skill and attention
that the Servicer exercises from time to time, with respect to all comparable equipment lease and
loan contracts and receivables that it services for itself or others in accordance with the Credit
and Collection Policy (or if the Backup Servicer has been appointed as Servicer, the Backup
Servicer’s customary collection policies) and, to the extent more exacting, the requirements of
this Article VI. The Servicer’s duties shall include, without limitation, collecting and
posting of all Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable, responding to inquiries of
Obligors on the Pledged Receivables, investigating delinquencies, sending invoices, payment
statements or payment books to Obligors, reporting any required tax information to Obligors,
policing the collateral, enforcing the terms of the Contracts (and any documents related thereto)
related to any Pledged Receivables, complying with the terms of the Lockbox Agreement, accounting
for Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable, furnishing monthly and annual statements to
the Lender with respect to distributions and performing the other duties specified herein.

          (c) The Servicer will require each Underlying Originator to (i) service all Underlying
Contracts in a manner consistent with the applicable Underlying Originator Credit and Collection
Policy (which the Servicer has reviewed and approved in accordance with the Credit and Collection
Policy) and (ii) provide to the Servicer a monthly data feed, which shall be in form and content
satisfactory to the Servicer. The Servicer shall, or shall cause

52

 

a third party servicer appointed
by the Servicer and approved by the Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) to,
provide servicing similar to the servicing that the Servicer is obligated to provide hereunder with
respect to any Underlying Contracts to the extent that the related Underlying Originator fails to
service such Underlying Contracts in a manner consistent with the applicable Underlying Originator
Credit and Collection Policy.

          (d) To the extent consistent with the standards, policies and procedures otherwise required
hereby, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in
connection with such managing, servicing, administration and collection that it may deem necessary
or desirable. The Servicer is authorized to release liens on Obligor Collateral in order to
collect insurance proceeds with respect thereto and to liquidate such Obligor Collateral in
accordance with its customary standards, policies and procedures; provided,
however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not, (i) except pursuant
to an order from a court of competent jurisdiction, release an Obligor from payment of any unpaid
amount under any Pledged Receivable or (ii) waive the right to collect the unpaid balance of any
Pledged Receivable from such Obligor, except that, subject to Section 6.02(a), the Servicer
may forego collection efforts if the amount which the Servicer, in its reasonable judgment, expects
to realize in connection with such collection efforts is determined by the Servicer, in its
reasonable judgment, to be less than the reasonably expected costs of pursuing such collection
efforts and if the Servicer would forego such collection efforts in accordance with its customary
procedures. The Servicer is hereby authorized to commence, in its own name (in its capacity as
Servicer), if possible, or in the name of the Borrower or the Lender (provided that if the
Servicer is acting in the name of the Borrower or the Lender, the Servicer shall have obtained the
Borrower’s or the Lender’s consent, as the case may be, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld), a legal proceeding to enforce any Pledged Receivable (or any terms or provisions of the
related Contract) or to commence or participate in any other legal proceeding (including, without
limitation, a bankruptcy proceeding) relating to or involving a Pledged Receivable or any related
Contract, Obligor or Obligor Collateral. If the Servicer commences or participates in such a legal
proceeding in its own name, the Borrower or the Lender, as the case may be, shall thereupon be
deemed to have automatically assigned such Pledged Receivable to the Servicer solely for purposes
of commencing or participating in any such proceeding as a party or claimant, and the Servicer is
authorized and empowered by the Borrower or the Lender, as the case may be, to execute and deliver
in the Servicer’s name any notices, demands, claims, complaints, responses, affidavits or other
documents or instruments in connection with any such proceeding. The Borrower or the Lender, as
the case may be, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents which
the Servicer may reasonably request in writing and which the Servicer deems necessary or
appropriate and take any other steps which the Servicer may deem necessary or appropriate to enable
the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement. If,
however, in any suit or legal proceeding it is held that the Servicer may not prosecute such suit
or legal proceeding on the grounds that it is not an actual party in interest or a holder entitled
to enforce such suit or legal proceeding, the Borrower shall take such steps as the Servicer deems
necessary to prosecute such suit or legal proceeding, including bringing suit in its name.

     SECTION 6.02 Collection of Receivable Payments; Modification and Amendment of
Receivables; Lockbox Agreements. (a) Consistent with and subject to the standards, policies
and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall collect all payments called for under
the terms and provisions of the Contracts related to the Pledged Receivables (and the terms and
provisions of any documents related thereto) as and when the same shall become due and shall follow
such collection procedures with respect to the Pledged Receivables and the related Contracts and
Insurance Policies as will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be
received by the Borrower and the Lender with respect thereto.

          (b) The Servicer shall remit all payments by or on behalf of the Obligors received directly
by the Servicer to the Collection Account, without deposit into any intervening account as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than the end of business on the Business Day of identification
thereof as payments by or on behalf of the Obligors.

     SECTION 6.03 Realization Upon Receivables. Consistent with the standards, policies
and procedures required by this Agreement, the Servicer shall use its best efforts to repossess (or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate any Obligor Collateral securing a
Pledged Receivable within a number of days consistent with the Credit and Collection Policy of an
uncured failure of the related Obligor to make any payment which it is obligated to make under the
related Contract or an earlier date that would be customary under the circumstances involved (as
determined in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy) and, in any case, in a

53

 

manner as
will, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize the amount to be received by the
Borrower and the Lender with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer
need not repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate the Obligor
Collateral securing such a Pledged Receivable if, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer, the
value of such Obligor Collateral does not exceed by more than an insignificant amount the cost to
repossess (or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of) and liquidate such Obligor Collateral.
The Servicer is authorized to follow such customary practices and procedures as it shall deem
necessary or advisable, consistent with the standard of care required by Section 6.01,
which practices and procedures may include reasonable efforts to realize upon any guaranties,
selling the related Obligor Collateral at public or private sale, the submission of claims under an
Insurance Policy and other actions by the Servicer in order to realize upon such Pledged
Receivable. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which the Obligor
Collateral shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not expend funds in connection with any
repair or towards the repossession of such Obligor Collateral, unless it shall determine in its
discretion that such repair and/or repossession shall increase the proceeds of liquidation of the
related Pledged Receivable by an amount greater than the amount of such expenses. All Liquidation
Proceeds shall be remitted directly by the Servicer to the Collection Account without deposit into
any intervening account as soon as practicable, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day
after identification thereof as Liquidation Proceeds. The Servicer shall pay on behalf of the
Borrower
any personal property taxes assessed on repossessed Obligor Collateral, and the Servicer shall
be entitled to reimbursement of any such tax as a Servicer Advance.

     SECTION 6.04 Insurance Regarding Equipment. (a) At the time of the Pledge of any
Receivable hereunder, the Servicer shall require each Obligor to obtain and maintain (or with
respect to an Underlying Originator, cause the Underlying Obligor to obtain and maintain) Insurance
Policies in accordance with the terms of the Credit and Collection Policy and its customary
servicing procedures and shall furnish evidence of such insurance (except if the Equipment or
Underlying Equipment relating to such Obligor or Underlying Obligor, as applicable, has an
aggregate original cost of $100,000 or less) to the Lender.

          (b) The Servicer may, and upon the request of the Lender shall, sue to enforce or collect
upon the Insurance Policies, in its own name (but in its capacity as Servicer), if possible, or as
agent of the Borrower and the Lender. If the Servicer elects to commence a legal proceeding to
enforce an Insurance Policy, the act of commencement shall be deemed to be an automatic assignment
of the rights of the Borrower and the Lender under such Insurance Policy to the Servicer for
purposes of collection only. If, however, in any enforcement suit or legal proceeding it is held
that the Servicer may not enforce an Insurance Policy on the grounds that it is not an actual party
in interest or a holder entitled to enforce the Insurance Policy, the Borrower shall take such
steps as the Servicer deems necessary to enforce such Insurance Policy, including bringing suit in
its name.

     SECTION 6.05 Maintenance of Security Interests in Obligor Collateral. (a) The
initial Servicer and the Borrower shall take all steps necessary, under all applicable law, in
order to (i) cause a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority perfected security interest
to exist in favor of the Collateral Agent in the Borrower’s interests in the Obligor Collateral,
all Other Conveyed Property and all Related Security related to each Receivable (and the proceeds
thereof) being Pledged hereunder, to secure a Loan on the Borrowing Date thereof including (A) the
filing of a UCC financing statement in the applicable jurisdiction adequately describing the
Obligor Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and all Related Security and naming the Borrower as
debtor and the Collateral Agent as the secured party, (B) filing Obligor Financing Statements
against all Obligors purchasing or leasing Obligor Collateral, (C) other than with respect to an
Underlying Lease Contract related to Equipment which has an original cost of less than $25,000 if
such Underlying Lease Contract is a Dollar Purchase Option Contract or $50,000 if such Underlying
Lease Contract is a FMV Contract, causing the filing of UCC-3 assignment statements in the
applicable jurisdictions adequately describing the Underlying Originator Loan Collateral being
transferred thereunder and naming the applicable Underlying Originator as the assignor and
Originator as the assignee, and (D) other than with respect to an Underlying Lease Contract related
to Equipment which has an original cost of less than $25,000 if such Underlying Lease Contract is a
Dollar Purchase Option Contract or $50,000 if such Underlying Lease Contract is a FMV Contract,
causing the filing of UCC-3 assignment statements in the applicable jurisdictions adequately
describing the Underlying Originator Loan Collateral being transferred thereunder and naming the
applicable Underlying Originator as the assignor and Originator as the assignee (ii) ensure that
such security interest is and shall be prior to all other liens upon and security interests in the
Borrower’s interests in such Obligor Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and Related Security (and
the proceeds thereof) that now exist, or may hereafter arise or be created other than Permitted
Liens, and (iii) ensure that immediately prior to the Pledge of such

54

 

Receivable by the Borrower to
the Collateral Agent, such Obligor Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and Related Security is free
and clear of all Adverse Claims other than Permitted Liens; and

          (b) The initial Servicer shall take all steps, as are necessary (subject to
Section 6.05(a)), to maintain perfection of the security interest in the Borrower’s
interests in the Obligor Collateral, Other Conveyed Property and Related Security related to each
Pledged Receivable (and the proceeds thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent including but not
limited to, obtaining the execution by the Borrower and the recording, registering, filing,
rerecording, refiling, and reregistering of all security agreements, financing statements and
continuation statements as are necessary to maintain and/or perfect such security interests granted
by the Borrower and the recordation of the Borrower’s or the applicable Approved Lienholder’s lien
on the Certificate of Title for any Vehicle included in such Obligor Collateral, all in accordance
with the Titling Requirements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and
the Lender each hereby authorizes the initial Servicer, and the initial Servicer agrees, to take
any and all steps necessary (subject to Section 6.05(a)) to re-perfect the security
interest in the Borrower’s interests in any Obligor Collateral (and the Borrower’s interests
therein), Other Conveyed Property and Related Security related to each Pledged Receivable (and the
proceeds thereof) in favor of the Collateral Agent as may be necessary, due to the relocation of
such Obligor Collateral or for any other reason.

     SECTION 6.06 Pledged Receivable Receipts. The Servicer shall make a deposit into the
Collection Account in an amount equal to the Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable
received, or made by, or on behalf of it, within one Business Day of such Collections being
received, or made by, or on behalf of it.

     SECTION 6.07 No Rights of Withdrawal. Until the Collection Date, the Borrower shall
have no rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection Account
or the Lockbox Account, except with respect to funds not related to any Pledged Assets, which were
incorrectly deposited into any such account.

     SECTION 6.08 Permitted Investments. The Borrower shall, pursuant to written
instruction, direct the Lender’s Bank (and if the Borrower fails to do so, the Lender may, pursuant
to written instruction, direct the Lender’s Bank) to invest, or cause the investment of, funds on
deposit in the Collection Account in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until
the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, the Lender’s Bank shall invest, or cause
the investment of, such funds in Permitted Investments described in clause (v) of the definition
thereof. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in the Collection Account shall
mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Remittance Date, and shall not be
sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be registered in
the name of the Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Securities Account Agreement) or its
nominee for the benefit of the Lender, and otherwise comply with assumptions of the legal opinion
of Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP, delivered in connection with this Agreement. All income and gain
realized from any such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in the Collection
Account, shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. The
Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account, as the case may be (with respect to investments
made hereunder of funds held therein), an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred,
in respect of any such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Lender’s
Bank or the Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any
investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in the Collection Account.

     SECTION 6.09 Servicing Compensation. As compensation for its activities hereunder,
the Servicer shall be entitled to be paid the Servicing Fee from the Collection Account as provided
in Section 2.04(c). The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement
therefor, except with respect to reasonable expenses of the Servicer incurred in connection with
the repossession and disposition of any Obligor Collateral (which the Servicer may retain from the
proceeds of the disposition of such Obligor Collateral) and any Servicer Advances made by the
Servicer pursuant hereto. The Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole, or in part, except in
connection with the transfer of all the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this
Agreement. At any time after the occurrence of a Servicer Default and the appointment of the
Backup Servicer as the Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall be entitled to receive an
amount, payable out of Collections on the Pledged Receivables and amounts applied to the payment
of, or treated as payments on, the Pledged Receivables, equal to expenses incurred by the Backup
Servicer, acting in its capacity as the Servicer, in connection with its obligations under Sections
6.05(a), (b) and (c) hereof (such expenses, the “Active Backup
Servicer’s Indemnified Amounts”).

55

 

     SECTION 6.10 Reports to the Lender and the Backup Servicer; Account Statements; Servicing
Information. (a) The Borrower will deliver to the Lender and each Qualifying Swap
Counterparty, (i) on the Program Termination Date, a report identifying the Pledged Receivables
(and any information with respect thereto requested by the Lender) on the day immediately preceding
the Program Termination Date, and (ii) upon the Lender’s reasonable request and upon reasonable
notice, on any other Business Day, a report identifying the Pledged Receivables (and any

          (b) At least four (4) Business Days prior to each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall prepare

Pledged Receivables (including, if requested, a Computer Tape or Listing), all information in the
Monthly Remittance Report and all other such information to be accurate as of the last day of the
immediately preceding Collection Period, and (ii) in an electronic format mutually acceptable to
the Servicer and the Lender, all information reasonably requested by the Lender relating to all
Pledged Receivables. If any Monthly Remittance Report indicates the existence of a Borrowing Base
Deficiency, the Borrower shall, on the date of delivery of such Monthly Remittance Report, prepay
to the Lender, for the account of the Lender, a portion of the Loans as is necessary to cure such
Borrowing Base Deficiency (or otherwise cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency).

          (c) By no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day immediately
preceding a Borrowing, the Borrower (or the initial Servicer on its behalf) shall also prepare and
deliver to the Lender a Borrowing Base Certificate containing information accurate as of the date
of delivery of such Borrowing Base Certificate. If any Borrowing Base Certificate indicates the
existence of a Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Borrower shall on the date of delivery of such
Borrowing Base Certificate prepay to the Lender, for the account of the Lender, a portion of the
Loans or Pledge additional Eligible Receivables, in either case, to the extent necessary to cure
such Borrowing Base Deficiency.

          (d) At least four (4) Business Days prior to each Remittance Date (each such day, a
“Backup Servicer Delivery Date”), the Servicer shall prepare and deliver, or have
delivered, to the Backup Servicer (i) the Monthly Remittance Report in respect of the
immediately-preceding Collection Period and (ii) a computer tape or a diskette or any other
electronic transmission in a format acceptable to the Backup Servicer containing (x) the

shall prepare and deliver, or have delivered, to the Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer a
computer tape or a diskette or any other electronic transmission in a format acceptable to the
Backup Servicer containing any information which is reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer or
the Collateral Agent.

          (f) The Borrower shall deliver to the Lender all reports it receives pursuant to the Purchase
and Sale Agreement within one Business Day of the receipt thereof.

          (g) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall prepare and deliver, or have delivered, to
the Lender, the Collateral Agent and the Backup Servicer any information which is reasonably
requested by the Backup Servicer, the Lender or the Collateral Agent.

     SECTION 6.11 Statements as to Compliance; Financial Statements. (a) The Servicer
shall deliver to the Backup Servicer, the Borrower and the Lender on or before March 31st of each
year, beginning with 2007, an Officers’ Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that

of the preceding calendar year commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending December 31,
2006 in the case of the first such review) and of its performance under this Agreement has been
made under such officer’s supervision, and (y) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on
such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such
calendar year (or portion thereof, as the case may be) or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officers and the
nature and status thereof and the action being taken to cure such default.

56

 

          (b) The Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) shall, at its expense, cause a
firm of nationally recognized independent certified public accountants acceptable to the Lender
(the “Independent Accountants”), who may also render other services to the Servicer, the
Backup Servicer or to the Borrower, to deliver to the Borrower and the Lender, on or before March
31st of each year, beginning 2007, with respect to the twelve (12) months ended the immediately
preceding December 31, a statement (the “Accountant’s Report”) addressed to the Board of
Directors of the Servicer and to the Lender, to the effect that such firm has examined such
Borrowing Base Certificates and Monthly Remittance Reports prepared by the Servicer during the
twelve (12) months ended the immediately preceding December 31 as it deemed necessary in order to
issue the Accountants’ Report and issued its report thereon, and that such examination was made in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the
accounting records and such other auditing procedures as such firm considered necessary in the
circumstances. The Accountants’ Report shall further state that (i) a review in accordance with
agreed upon procedures was made; and (ii) except as disclosed in the Accountant’s Report, no
exceptions or errors in the Borrowing Base Certificates and Monthly Remittance Reports examined
were found except for (A) such exceptions as the Independent Accountants believe to be immaterial
and (B) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in the Accountants’ Report. The Accountants’
Report shall also indicate that the firm is independent of the Borrower and the Servicer within the

     SECTION 6.12 Access to Certain Documentation; Obligors; Background Check. (a) The
Lender (and its agents or professional advisors) shall at the expense of the Borrower, have the
right under this Agreement, once during each calendar quarter until the first anniversary of the
date hereof, and semi-annually thereafter, to examine and audit, during business hours or at such
other times as might be reasonable under applicable circumstances, any and all of the books,
records, financial statements or other information of the Servicer and the Borrower, or held by
another for the Servicer or the Borrower or on its behalf, concerning this Agreement,
provided, that, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall not be
responsible for the expenses of the Lender to the extent that such expenses exceed $25,000 in the
aggregate in any calendar year. The Lender (and its agents or professional advisors) shall, at the
expense of the Borrower and as frequently as the Lender may desire, have the right under this

58

 

Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to examine and
audit, during business hours or at such other times as might be reasonable under applicable
circumstances, any and all of the books, records or other information of the Servicer or the
Borrower, or held by another for the Servicer or the Borrower or on its behalf, concerning this
Agreement. The Lender (and its agents and professional advisors) shall coordinate examinations and
audits under this Section 6.12(a) in order to minimize expense and inconvenience to the
Borrower. The Lender (and its agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any
information obtained during the aforementioned examinations which is not already publicly known or
available; provided, however, that the Lender may disclose such information if
required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority.

          (b) The Lender (and its agents or professional advisors) shall, at its own expense, have the
right under this Agreement to contact Pool A Obligors and Pool B Obligors once with respect to any
Receivable which is Pledged hereunder to request that each such Obligor verify and confirm by
return letter the existence and amount of such Receivable, the type of Equipment leased under or
securing the related Contract and such other information as the Lender deems reasonable under the
circumstances (each such return letter to be mailed to a post office box established by the
Lender). The Servicer and the Borrower hereby agree to cooperate with the Lender (and its agents
or professional advisors) in connection with any attempt thereby to contact any such Obligor and
shall provide to the Lender such information as is needed in order to facilitate such contact. The
Lender (and its agents and professional advisors) shall treat as confidential any information
obtained during any such contact with any such Obligor which is not already publicly known or
available; provided, however, that the Lender (and its agents or professional advisors) may
disclose such information if required to do so by law or by any regulatory authority.

          (c) The Lender (or its agents and/or third party professional advisors) may, from time to
time, cause comprehensive background checks on newly-hired senior management, key employees and
principals of each of Resource Capital Corp., the initial Servicer and Originator to be completed
by an investigation service acceptable to the Lender, at the Borrower’s expense.

     SECTION 6.13 Backup Servicer. If a Servicer Default shall occur, then the Lender
may, by notice to the Servicer, the Borrower and the Backup Servicer, terminate all of the rights
and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. Upon the delivery to the Servicer of such
notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the
Pledged Assets or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Backup Servicer pursuant to and
under this Section (unless the Lender shall have appointed a different successor Servicer pursuant
to Section 6.01 hereof or the Backup Servicer is unable to act as Servicer and a successor
is appointed as provided in the fourth paragraph of this Section 6.13), and, without
limitation, the Backup Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on
behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other
instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect
the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the Servicer under this
Agreement including, without limitation, to make withdrawals from the Security Deposit Account
pursuant to Section 2.05 and any Cash Reserve Account pursuant to Section 2.06.
The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Lender and the Backup Servicer in effecting the
termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation,
providing notification to the Obligors of the assignment of the servicing function, providing
notification to the Lender’s Bank of the Backup Servicer’s right to make withdrawals from the
Security Deposit Account pursuant to Section 2.05 and any Cash Reserve Account pursuant to Section
2.06, providing the Backup Servicer, at the Servicer’s expense, with all records, in electronic or
other form, reasonably requested by the Backup Servicer, in such form as the Backup Servicer may
reasonably request and at such times as the Backup Servicer may reasonably request, to enable the
Backup Servicer to assume the servicing functions hereunder and the transfer to the Backup Servicer
for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time should be or should have been
deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account or thereafter be received by the Servicer with
respect to the Pledged Receivables. Additionally, the Servicer agrees to cooperate in providing,
at the Servicer’s expense, the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer, with reasonable access
(including at the premises of the Servicer) to Servicer’s employees and any and all books, records
or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer, as successor
Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder. Neither the Lender nor the Backup Servicer
shall be deemed to have breached any obligation hereunder as a result of a failure to make or delay
in making any distribution as and when required hereunder caused by the failure of the Servicer to
remit any amounts received by it or to deliver any documents held by it with respect to the Pledged
Assets. The Backup Servicer (including as successor Servicer) undertakes to perform only such
duties and obligations as are specifically

59

 

set forth in this Agreement, it being understood by all
parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of the Backup Servicer hereunder.

          The Active Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections with
respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(c) on and after the date, if
any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this
Section. The Standby Backup Servicer’s Fees and Transition Costs shall be paid out of Collections
with respect to any Pledged Receivable as set forth in Section 2.04(c) prior to the date,
if any, that the Backup Servicer assumes the responsibilities of the Servicer pursuant to this
Section.

          Any obligations of LEAF Financial under any Transaction Document other than in its capacity as
Servicer shall continue in effect notwithstanding LEAF Financial’s termination as Servicer.

          On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to this
Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer shall be (and the Backup Servicer hereby agrees to be)
the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and
the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights and powers and be
subject thereafter to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on
the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that any
failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide
information required by this Section 6.13 shall not be considered a default by the Backup
Servicer hereunder; provided, further, however, that the Backup Servicer,
as successor Servicer, shall have (i) no liability with respect to any obligation which was
required to be performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer
becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or
inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any
repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any
taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer shall pay any income
taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other
party to the transactions contemplated hereby, and (v) no liability or obligation with respect to
any Servicer indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, including the original Servicer.
The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are
expressly limited to those arising on account of its failure to act in good faith and with
reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, the Backup Servicer shall have no liability
relating to the representations and warranties of the Servicer contained in Article IV.
Notwithstanding the above, the Lender may, or shall, if the Backup Servicer is unable to so act,
appoint itself, or appoint any other established servicing institution acceptable to the Lender in
its sole discretion, as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any
part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment
of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, and after the Lender notifies the Servicer to discontinue
performing servicing functions under this Agreement, the Backup Servicer (or the Lender if there is
no Backup Servicer) shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such
appointment and assumption, the Lender may make such arrangements for the compensation of such
successor out of payments on Pledged Receivables as it and such successor shall agree;
provided, however, that, except as provided herein, no such compensation shall be
in excess of that permitted the Servicer hereunder, unless (i) agreed to by the Lender and
(ii) such compensation shall be on commercially competitive terms and rates. The Borrower, the
Lender and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. The parties hereto agree that in no event will the
Backup Servicer be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages.

          The Backup Servicer hereby agrees that it shall, and shall take all actions necessary so that
it shall at all times be ready to, assume all the rights and powers and all of the
responsibilities, obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder, within ten (10) Business Days
of receiving from the Lender a notice requesting the Backup Servicer to do so.

          Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, absent specific
knowledge by any Lyon Financial Services, Inc. account representative assigned to this transaction
from time to time, or written notice detailing specific Errors (as defined below) or other
deficiencies, Lyon Financial Services, Inc., as successor Servicer, is authorized to accept and
rely on all accounting records (including computer records) and work product of the prior Servicer
hereunder relating to the Contracts (collectively, the “Predecessor Servicer Work Product”)
without any audit or other examination thereof, and Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no
duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Servicer. If
any error, inaccuracy, commission or incorrect or nonstandard practice or procedure (collectively,
“Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work

60

 

Product and such Errors cause Lyon
Financial Services, Inc. to make or continue any errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”),
Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall have no liability for such Continued Errors; provided,
however, that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. agrees to use its best efforts to prevent
Continued Errors. In the event that Lyon Financial Services, Inc. becomes aware of Errors or
Continued Errors, Lyon Financial Services, Inc. shall, with the prior consent of the Lender, use
commercially reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile any affected data to correct such
Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors. Lyon Financial Services, Inc.
shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended as Servicer Advances in accordance with
Section 2.04(c) hereof.

          Within four (4) Business Days after each Remittance Date, provided that the Backup Servicer
shall have received the information specified in Section 6.10(d) within the time specified
therein, the Backup Servicer shall compare the information on the computer tape or diskette (or
other means of electronic transmission acceptable to the Backup Servicer) most recently delivered
to the Backup Servicer by the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) with respect to such
Remittance Date to the corresponding Monthly Remittance Report delivered to the Backup Servicer by
the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.10(d) and shall:

          (a) confirm that such Monthly Remittance Report is complete on its face;

          (b) confirm the distributions to be made on such Remittance Date pursuant to
Section 2.04(c) hereof to the extent the Backup Servicer is able to do so given the
information provided to it by the Servicer (it being hereby agreed that the Backup Servicer shall
promptly notify the Servicer and the Lender if such information is insufficient
and that the Servicer shall promptly provide to the Backup Servicer any additional information
required by the Backup Servicer);

          (c) confirm the mathematical computations of information in such Monthly Remittance Report;
and

          (d) confirm such other information as the Backup Servicer and the Lender may agree.

          In the event of any discrepancy between the information set forth in subparagraphs (b) or (c)
above as calculated by the Servicer and that determined or calculated by the Backup Servicer, the
Backup Servicer shall promptly report such discrepancy to the Servicer and the Lender. In the
event of a discrepancy as described in the preceding sentence, the Servicer and the Backup Servicer
shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy within five (5) Business Days after reporting such
discrepancy, but in the absence of a reconciliation, distributions on the related Remittance Date
shall be made consistent with the information calculated by the Servicer, the Servicer and the
Backup Servicer shall attempt to reconcile such discrepancy prior to the next Remittance Date, and
the Servicer shall promptly report to the Lender regarding the progress, if any, which shall have
been made in reconciling such discrepancy. If the Backup Servicer and the Servicer are unable to
reconcile such discrepancy with respect to such Monthly Remittance Report by the next Remittance
Date that falls in April, July, October or January, the Servicer shall cause independent
accountants acceptable to the Lender, at the Servicer’s expense, to examine such Monthly Remittance
Report and attempt to reconcile such discrepancy at the earliest possible date (and the Servicer
shall promptly provide the Lender with a report regarding such event). The effect, if any, of such
reconciliation shall be reflected in the Monthly Remittance Report for the next succeeding
Remittance Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall be referred to herein as the “Discrepancy
Procedure”.

          Other than as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Backup Servicer shall have no
obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer and shall
have no liability for any action taken or omitted by the Servicer.

          The Backup Servicer may allow a subservicer to perform any and all of its duties and
responsibilities hereunder, including but not limited to its duties as successor Servicer
hereunder, should the Backup Servicer become the successor Servicer pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement; provided, however, that the Backup Servicer shall remain liable for the
performance of all of its duties and obligations hereunder to the same extent as if no such
subservicing had occurred.

61

 

          In no event shall the Backup Servicer (either prior to or after its appointment hereunder as
Servicer) be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations
hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control,
including without limitation, acts of terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural
catastrophes or acts of God.

          The Backup Servicer may, upon one hundred twenty (120) days’ prior written notice to each of
the parties hereto, resign as Backup Servicer. If the Backup Servicer resigns under this
Agreement, then the Collateral Agent and the Lender (with the consent of the Servicer if no Program
Termination Event or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing) during such period may
appoint a successor backup servicer, whereupon such successor backup servicer shall succeed to the
rights, powers and duties of such Backup Servicer, and the term “Backup Servicer”, shall mean such
successor backup servicer, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment and its delivery of a
duly executed counterpart of this Agreement and an acknowledgment to the Backup Servicer and the
other parties hereto, and such former Backup Servicer’s rights, powers and duties as Backup
Servicer, shall be terminated (other than the covenant of the Backup Servicer set forth in
Section 9.08, which expressly survives termination of this Agreement), without any other or
further act or deed on the part of such former Backup Servicer or any of the parties to this
Agreement. Such resigning Backup Servicer shall cooperate with the Custodian, the Collateral Agent
and the successor backup servicer in order to transfer its rights and obligations as Backup
Servicer hereunder to such successor Backup Servicer.

     SECTION 6.14 Additional Remedies of Lender Upon Event of Default. During the
continuance of any Event of Default, the Lender, in addition to the rights specified in
Section 7.01, shall have the right to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute to protect its interests and enforce its rights and remedies (including the
institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filings
of
proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy,
each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and no delay or
omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed
to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

     SECTION 6.15 Waiver of Defaults. The Lender may waive any default by the Servicer in
the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past
default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall be
effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by the Lender and no such waiver shall extend to
any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived.

     SECTION 6.16 Maintenance of Certain Insurance. On the date hereof the Servicer shall
obtain, and at all times thereafter during the term of its service as Servicer the Servicer shall
maintain, in force an “errors and omissions” insurance policy in an amount not less than $1,000,000
naming the Lender as loss payee and with an insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Lender.

          The Servicer shall deliver a copy of the insurance policy required under this Section 6.16 to
the Lender on the date hereof together with a certification from the applicable insurance company
that such policy is in force on the date hereof.

          The Servicer shall prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Lender, claims under any
such policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy, and upon, the filing
of any claim on any policy described in this Section, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Lender
of such claim.

     SECTION 6.17 Segregation of Collections. The Servicer shall not commingle funds
constituting Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable with any other funds of the
Servicer; provided, that such commingling may occur in the Lockbox Account so long as the
Lockbox Intercreditor Agreement is in full force and effect.

     SECTION 6.18 UCC Matters; Protection and Perfection of Pledged Assets. The Borrower
will not change the jurisdiction of its formation, make any change to its corporate name or use any
tradenames, fictitious names, assumed names, “doing business as” names or other names (other than
those listed on Schedule II hereto, as such schedule may be revised from time to time to
reflect name changes and name usage permitted under the terms of this

62

 

Section 6.18 after
compliance with all terms and conditions of this Section 6.18 related thereto) unless,
prior to the effective date of any such jurisdiction change, name change or use, the Borrower
notifies the Collateral Agent of such change in writing and delivers to the Collateral Agent such
executed financing statements as the Collateral Agent may request to reflect such jurisdiction,
name change or use, together with such other documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent may
request in connection therewith. The Borrower will not change the location of its chief executive
office or the location of its records regarding the Pledged Receivables unless, prior to the
effective date of any such change of location, the Borrower notifies the Collateral Agent of such
change of location in writing and delivers to the Collateral Agent such executed financing
statements as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to reflect such change of location,
together with such Opinions of Counsel, documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent may
request in connection therewith. The Borrower agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it
will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further
action that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to perfect, protect or more fully
evidence the Collateral Agent’s interest in the Pledged Assets acquired hereunder, or to enable the
Collateral Agent to exercise or enforce any of its respective rights hereunder. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will, upon the request of the Collateral Agent:
(i) execute (if necessary) and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments
thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or
appropriate or as the Collateral Agent may request, and (ii) mark its master data processing
records evidencing such Pledged Receivables with a legend acceptable to the Collateral Agent,
evidencing that the Collateral Agent has acquired an interest therein as provided in this
Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the filings or
registrations made by or on behalf of the Borrower without any independent investigation and the
Borrower’s obligation to make such filings as evidence that such filings have been made. The
Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation
statements, and amendments thereto and assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Pledged
Receivables and
the Other Conveyed Property and the Related Security related thereto and the proceeds of the
foregoing now existing or hereafter arising, without the signature of the Borrower where permitted
by law. The Borrower hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Collateral Agent of any such
financing statement made prior to the date hereof. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of
this Agreement or any financing statement covering the Pledged Receivables, or any part thereof,
shall be sufficient as a financing statement. The Borrower shall, upon the request of the
Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and at the Borrower’s
expense, notify the Obligors obligated to pay any Pledged Receivables, or any of them, of the
security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Pledged Assets. If the Borrower fails to perform
any of its agreements or obligations under this Section 6.18, the Collateral Agent may (but
shall not be required to) itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation,
and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the
Borrower upon the Collateral Agent’s demand therefor. For purposes of enabling the Collateral
Agent to exercise its rights described in the preceding sentence and elsewhere in this
Article VI, the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent and its successors and
assigns to take any and all steps in the Borrower’s name and on behalf of the Borrower necessary or
desirable, in the determination of the Collateral Agent, to collect all amounts due under any and
all Pledged Receivables, including, without limitation, endorsing the Borrower’s name on checks and
other instruments representing Collections with respect to any Pledged Receivable and enforcing
such Pledged Receivables and the related Contracts and, if any, the related guarantees.

     SECTION 6.19 Servicer Advances. The Servicer may, in its sole discretion, make an
advance in respect of any payment due on a Pledged Receivable (other than a Defaulted Receivable)
to the extent such payment has not been received by the Servicer as of its due date and the
Servicer reasonably expects such payment will be ultimately recoverable (a “Servicer
Advance”). The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account in immediately available
funds the aggregate of all Servicer Advances to be made during a Fee Period on or prior to the
Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date. The Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement for such Servicer Advances from monies in the Collection Account as provided in
Section 2.04(c) hereof.

     SECTION 6.20 Repurchase of Receivables Upon Breach of Covenant or Representation and
Warranty by Servicer. The Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall inform the other
parties to this Agreement and the Initial Qualifying Swap Counterparty promptly, in writing, upon
the discovery of any breach of the Servicer’s representations, warranties and/or covenants pursuant
to Section 4.02, Section 6.05 or Article V; provided,
however, that the failure to provide any such notice shall not diminish, in any manner
whatsoever, any obligation of the Servicer hereunder to repurchase any Pledged Receivable. Unless
such breach shall have been cured by the last day of the first full calendar month following the
discovery by or notice to the Servicer of such breach (and provided that

63

 

a Borrowing Base
Deficiency exists on such last day), the Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof) shall
have an obligation, and the Borrower shall and the Collateral Agent may, enforce such obligation of
the Servicer (if LEAF Financial or an Affiliate thereof), to repurchase any Pledged Receivable
materially and adversely affected by such breach. The Borrower shall notify the Collateral Agent
promptly, in writing, of any failure by the Servicer to so repurchase any such Pledged Receivable.
In consideration of the repurchase of such Pledged Receivable, the Servicer shall remit funds in an
amount equal to the Release Price for such Pledged Receivable to the Collection Account on the date
of such repurchase. The obligations of the Servicer under this Section 6.20 are in
addition to, and in no way limit, any obligations of the Servicer in its individual capacity under
the Purchase and Sale Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Servicer
to purchase any Receivables is not intended to, and shall not, constitute a guaranty of the
collectibility or payment of any Receivable which is not collected, not paid or uncollectible on
account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, or financial inability to pay of the related Obligor.

     SECTION 6.21 Compliance with Applicable Law. The Servicer and the Borrower shall at
all times comply in all material respects with all requirements of applicable federal, state and
local laws, and regulations thereunder (including, without limitation, usury laws, the Federal
Truth-in-Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Billing Act, the Fair
Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the Federal Reserve Board’s Regulations “B” and “Z”, the Soldiers’ and
Sailors’ Civil Relief Act of 1940 and state adaptations of the National Consumer Act and of the
Uniform Consumer Credit Code and all other consumer credit laws and equal credit opportunity and
disclosure laws) in the conduct of its business.

     SECTION 6.22 Receipt of Certificates of Title. Any Receivable with respect to which
the Obligor Collateral includes a Vehicle and for which the Servicer shall not have (i) received a
Certificate of Title satisfying the Titling Requirements and (ii) delivered such Certificate of
Title to the Custodian within 90 days of the first day of inclusion of such Pledged Receivable in
the calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance, shall no longer be deemed to be an Eligible
Receivable and, therefore, shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Eligible
Receivables Balance. In the case of any Receivable excluded from the calculation of the Eligible
Receivables Balance pursuant to the previous sentence, the Receivable so excluded from the
calculation of the Eligible Receivables Balance may at a later time be included in the calculation
of the Eligible Receivables Balance, provided, that (i) the Custodian shall have received
the Certificate of Title described above with respect to such Receivable from the applicable
Registrar of Titles and delivered such Certificate of Title to the Custodian and (ii) such
Receivable is otherwise an Eligible Receivable at such time.

     SECTION 6.23 Lender’s Bank Limitation of Liability. (a) The Lender’s Bank undertakes
to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it
being expressly understood by the parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations
under this Agreement. Neither the Lender’s Bank nor any of its officers, directors, employees or
agents shall be liable, directly or indirectly, for any damages or expenses arising out of the
services performed under this Agreement other than damages which result from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of it or them. In no event will the Lender’s Bank or any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents be liable for any consequential, indirect or special damages.

          (b) The Lender’s Bank shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or
step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything
which it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith.

          (c) The Lender’s Bank may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon any certificate,
instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document delivered to it by any other Person
and which in good faith it believes to be genuine and which has been signed by the proper party or
parties. The Lender’s Bank may rely on and shall be protected in acting upon the written
instructions of any designated officer of the Borrower, the Servicer or the Lender.

          (d) The Lender’s Bank may consult with counsel reasonably satisfactory to it and the opinion
of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such
counsel.

64

 

          (e) The Lender’s Bank shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise
incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of
its rights or powers, if the Lender’s Bank believes that repayment of such funds (repaid in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability
is not reasonably assured to it.

          (f) The Lender’s Bank shall not be deemed to be a fiduciary of any party hereto.

          (g) The parties hereto agree that in no event will the Lender’s Bank be liable for special,
indirect or consequential damages.

ARTICLE VII.

     SECTION 7.01 Events of Default. If any of the following events (“Events of
Default”) shall occur:

incorrect in any respect and shall remain false or incorrect for a period fifteen (15) Business
Days after the Servicer or the Borrower become aware, or are notified by the Lender, the Custodian
or any other Person, that such representation or warranty is false or incorrect; provided,
however, that if any breach described above is cured by the repurchase of Receivables
pursuant to Article VI of the Purchase and Sale Agreement or by a repayment hereunder, or
repurchase pursuant to Sections 4.03 or 6.20 hereof, such breach shall cease to
constitute an Event of Default; or

declared to be due and payable or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled
required prepayment) prior to the stated maturity thereof; or

any material adverse change to its business, financial condition or any other condition which, in
Lender’s sole discretion, constitutes a material impairment of the Originator or the Borrower’s
ability to perform its Obligations; or

          (f) (i) the Collateral Agent shall at any time fail to have a valid, perfected, first
priority security interest in any of the Pledged Assets (other than Equipment which has a value of
less than (x) $25,000 if such Equipment is leased under Dollar Purchase Option Contracts or
(y) $50,000 if such Equipment is leased under FMV Contracts) or (ii) any purchase by the Borrower
of a Receivable and the Collections, Related Security and Other Conveyed Property with respect
thereto under the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall, for any reason, cease to create in favor of

Security and the Other Conveyed Property with respect thereto; provided, however,
that if an event described in the foregoing clause (i) or (ii) is cured by the repurchase of
Receivables pursuant to Article VI of the Purchase and Sale

65

 

Agreement or by a repayment

          (h) the Servicer’s or the Borrower’s activities are terminated for any reason, including any
termination thereof by a regulatory, tax or accounting body; or

          (i) the occurrence of a Change of Control; or

          (j) the Purchase and Sale Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any material

shall so assert in writing; or

          (k) the occurrence of a Servicer Default; or

          (l) (i) the Facility Amount exceeds the lesser of (x) the Borrowing Limit and such event

          (o) Resource America or the Owner shall, at any time, permit its respective Tangible Net

occurred automatically upon the occurrence of such event. Upon any such declaration or automatic
occurrence, (i) the Borrower shall cease purchasing Receivables from Originator under the Purchase
and Sale Agreement, (ii) at the option of the Lender in its sole discretion, the Lender may declare
the Loans made to the Borrower hereunder and all interest and all Fees accrued on such Loans and

all such amounts and Obligations immediately), (iii) the Lender, in its sole discretion, may direct
the Obligors to make all payments under the Pledged Receivables directly to the Backup Servicer,
the Lender or any lockbox or account established by any of such parties. Any Collections received
in any such account (or received directly by the Lender) shall be applied to the Obligations in
accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 2.04(c). In addition, upon
any such declaration or upon any such automatic occurrence, the Lender and the Collateral Agent
shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Agreement or otherwise, all
other rights and remedies provided under the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction and other
applicable laws, which rights shall be cumulative. If any Event of Default shall have occurred,
the Interest Rate shall be increased to the Default Funding Rate, effective as of the date of the
occurrence of such Event of Default, and shall remain at the Default Funding Rate.

     SECTION 7.02 Additional Remedies of the Lender. (a) If, (i) upon the Lender’s
declaration that the Loans made to the Borrower hereunder are immediately due and payable pursuant
to Section 7.01 or (ii) on the Facility Maturity Date, the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Loans, all accrued Fees and interest and any other Obligations are not immediately
paid in full, then the Collateral Agent, in addition to all other rights specified hereunder, shall
have the right to immediately sell in a commercially reasonable manner, in a recognized market (if
one exists) at such price or prices as the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem satisfactory, any
or all Pledged
Assets and shall apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with the priority
of payments set forth in Section 2.04(c).

          (b) The parties recognize that it may not be possible to sell all of the Pledged Assets on a
particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner because
the market for such Pledged Assets may not be liquid. Accordingly, the Collateral Agent may elect,
in its sole discretion, the time and manner of liquidating any Pledged Assets, and nothing
contained herein shall obligate the Collateral Agent to liquidate any Pledged Assets on the date
the Lender declares the Loans made to the Borrower hereunder to be immediately due and payable
pursuant to Section 7.01 or to liquidate all Pledged Assets in the same manner or on the
same Business Day.

          (c) Any amounts received from any sale or liquidation of the Pledged Assets pursuant to this
Section 7.02 in excess of the Obligations will be returned to the Borrower, its successors
or assigns, or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

          (d) Each of the Lender, Collateral Agent and the Initial Qualifying Swap Counterparty shall
have, in addition to all the rights and remedies provided herein and provided by applicable
federal, state, foreign, and local laws (including, without limitation, the rights and remedies of
a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of any applicable state, to the extent that the
Uniform Commercial Code is applicable, and the right to offset any mutual debt and claim), all
rights and remedies available to such Person at law, in equity or under any other agreement between
such Person and the Borrower.

          (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this
Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in
addition to any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair
any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Program Termination Event or
Event of Default.

such losses:

	 	(i)	 	the inclusion, in any computations made by it in connection with any

it hereunder, of any Pledged Receivables which were not Eligible Receivables as of

Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.02 and such Indemnified Party thereafter
collects any of such amounts from others, such Indemnified Party will promptly repay such amounts
collected to the Servicer, without interest.

70

 

          Each applicable Indemnified Party shall deliver to the indemnifying party under
Section 8.01 and Section 8.02, within a reasonable time after such Indemnified
Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by
such Indemnified Party relating to the claim giving rise to the Indemnified Amounts.

INDENTURE

BY

LEAF COMMERCIAL FINANCE FUND, LLC

 

 

Exhibit 10.4

     THIS INDENTURE, dated as of October 24, 2008, is entered into by and between LEAF Commercial
Finance Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
“Company”), and U.S. BANK National
Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

RECITALS

     The Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture and the units of
participation (the “Notes”) in its Secured Recourse
8.25% Promissory Note (the “Master Note”) in
the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans made by the Noteholders from time to time to the
Company as of the Initial Closing Date and each subsequent Closing Date until the Offering
Termination Date in the aggregate unpaid principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 (the “Minimum
Offering”)and not more than $25,000,000 as set forth in Exhibit 1 to the Master Note, as amended
from time to time. The Company warrants, represents and covenants that all things necessary to make
the Master Note, when executed and delivered under this Indenture, duly issued by the Company and
authenticated by the Trustee, the valid obligation of the Company, and to make this Indenture a
valid agreement of the Company and the Trustee in accordance with its terms, have been done. Thus,
for and in consideration of the premises and the Loans made by the Noteholders to the Company and
the Company’s issuance of the Notes to the Noteholders under this Indenture and the Memorandum, it
is mutually covenanted and agreed for all Noteholders, as follows:

ARTICLE I – THE SECURITIES

1.1. Form of Master Note. The Master Note and the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication shall be
in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit 1 to this Indenture, which is incorporated in this
Indenture by reference, as evidenced by the Company’s execution of the Master Note and the
Trustee’s execution of the Certificate of Authentication pursuant to a Company Order.

1.2. Book Entry Form of Notes. As of each Closing Date, the Company shall credit to the account of
each Noteholder the unpaid principal amount loaned by the Noteholder to the Company on that Closing
Date and shall send the Noteholder, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent an initial
transaction statement that evidences the issuance of the Noteholder’s participation in the Master
Note and the aggregate principal amount of the Noteholder’s Notes. In addition, on each Closing
Date, beginning with the Initial Closing Date, the Company shall provide the Trustee, the Registrar
and the Paying Agent with the Taxpayer I.D. number of each Noteholder as provided by the Noteholder
in its subscription documents included in Exhibit E to the Memorandum. The Notes representing the
Noteholders’ participation in the Master Note issued in this book entry form shall not be
represented by, and the Noteholders shall not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery
of, a promissory note or other type of certificate evidencing their respective Notes. Instead the
Notes, and the Company’s payments of interest and unpaid principal of the Notes, will be evidenced
by the Company’s books and records, the records of the Paying Agent, and Exhibit 1 to the Master
Note as prepared and amended from time to time by the Registrar pursuant to Company Orders. Each
Noteholder owning a Note, including permitted transferees of a Note on any subsequent assignment of
a Note in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture and the Memorandum, shall be deemed to
be the registered owner of the Notes representing the Loan.

1.3. Minimum Amount of Loans. Pursuant to the Memorandum, each Noteholder must execute and deliver
to the Company a Subscription Agreement for at least 10 Notes (a total of $50,000 face principal
amount) to be paid in full at the time of subscribing, unless the Company, in its sole discretion,
accepts a Subscription Agreement from a Noteholder for a fewer number of Notes. Larger
Subscriptions may be made in $5,000 increments, e.g., $55,000, $60,000, etc., assuming the
Noteholder subscribed for 10 Notes.

1.4. Execution and Authentication of Master Note.

	 	(a)	 	The Master Note shall be executed on behalf of the Company by the President or
any Executive Vice President of the Company. The signature of any of such individual on
the Master Note may be manual or facsimile, and shall bind the Company.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Master Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee
manually signs the Certificate of Authentication as directed by a Company Order.

1

 

	 	(c)	 	The Trustee shall authenticate amendments and supplements to the Master Note
for additional Loans made to the Company pursuant to the Memorandum on Closing Dates
subsequent to the Initial Closing Date, from time to time, as directed by a Company
Order, but the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate amendments or supplements
to the Master Note more often than once a calendar month.

1.5. Registrar and Paying Agent.

	 	(a)	 	The Company, or any other Person appointed by the Company to register the Notes
and any transfer or exchange of a Note (the “Registrar”), shall keep a register of the
Notes and their transfer and exchange (the “Note Register”). The Registrar shall add to
the Note Register each Noteholder’s Notes as of each Closing Date pursuant to a Company
Order.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Company, or any other Person within the United States appointed by the
Company (the “Paying Agent”), shall make payments of interest and principal on the
Notes (and payment of the applicable redemption price if any Notes are redeemed under
Article II) on the Company’s behalf to the Noteholders in the ratio that the aggregate
principal amount of each Noteholder’s Notes bears to the total aggregate principal
amount of all the Noteholders’ Outstanding Notes based on a principal amount of $5,000
per Note regardless of the price actually paid by a Noteholder for his Notes, to the
extent the Company provides the Paying Agent with immediately available funds to do so,
and at the times and in the manner directed by the Company pursuant to a Company Order.
In addition, the Paying Agent shall comply with all requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any applicable federal or state tax requirements
with respect to withholding taxes from any payments made on the Notes and any related
reporting requirements.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of each Registrar
or Paying Agent and may appoint their successors.
	 
	 	(d)	 	LEAF Financial Corporation, the Company’s Manager and sole Member, shall serve
as the initial Registrar and Paying Agent.

1.6. Noteholder Lists. The Registrar shall prepare, maintain and provide to the Trustee and the
Paying Agent a list of the Noteholders’ names and addresses and the unpaid principal amount of
their respective Outstanding Notes in as current a form, from time to time, as is reasonably
practicable, and the Registrar shall furnish the list to the Company, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent at least ten (10) days before the end of each calendar quarter during the term of the Notes
and at all other times as the Trustee, the Company or the Paying Agent may request in writing. The
Note Register shall be composed of a list of the names and addresses of Noteholders in the form as
the Company reasonably requires. The Registrar may charge a Noteholder its reasonable expenses and
a reasonable fee for any changes to the Note Register requested by a Noteholder.

1.7. Transfers of Notes. When a Noteholder requests the Company or the Registrar to register a
transfer of the record ownership of the Noteholder’s Note, the Company shall cause the Registrar to
register the transfer of the Note as requested if the requirements for a transfer set forth below
are met. Following a transfer of a Note, the Registrar shall revise Exhibit 1 to the Master Note
pursuant to a Company Order to reflect the transfer. The Registrar may charge its reasonable
expenses and a reasonable fee to the Noteholder for any transfer of the Noteholder’s Note, and may
charge a reasonable fee to a Noteholder for any change of the Noteholder’s address.

	 	(a)	 	Other than transfers by operation of law, any transfer of a Note, shall be
subject to the following conditions:

	 	(i)	 	After a suitable holding period under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “1933 Act”), as determined by the Manager in its sole
discretion, the transfer shall be made pursuant to a duly executed written
instrument executed by all of the owners of the Note and delivered to the
Company in a form that is acceptable to the Company and the Registrar, which
complies with all of the provisions of this Indenture and specifies the unpaid
principal amount of the Notes being transferred and includes a representation by
both the Noteholder and the assignee that the assignment was made in accordance
with all

2

 

	 	 	 	applicable laws and regulations (including, without limitation, the 1933 Act,
or an exception therefrom, and the provisions of any applicable state
securities laws.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The transfer shall be made pursuant to a validly filed and
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, or an exemption therefrom,
and the applicable provisions of any state securities laws, and shall not
jeopardize the availability of the non-public offering exemption under Section
4(2) of the 1933 Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder relied on by the
Company in connection with the issuance of the Master Note and the Notes. The
Noteholder shall provide an opinion of the Noteholder’s counsel addressed to the
Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent in a form acceptable to
the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent to that effect, or,
in the Company’s sole discretion, the Company may provide an opinion of the
Company’s Counsel acceptable to the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent
to that effect.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	If the Noteholder transfers less than all of the unpaid
principal amount of the Noteholder’s Notes, the Noteholder and the transferee
must each own Notes of at least $5,000 in unpaid principal amount after the
transfer.
	 
	 	(iv)	 	Any attempted transfer of a Note or any beneficial interest in a
Note that does not comply with this Section 1.7 shall be null and void.
	 
	 	(v)	 	The Company must consent in writing to the transfer of record of
any unpaid principal amount of a Note, which consent may be withheld for any
reason.
	 
	 	(vi)	 	The transferor Noteholder must indemnify the Company, the
Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent against any liability that may
result from the transfer or assignment of the Notes in violation of this
Indenture, the 1933 Act, applicable state securities laws or any other
applicable laws.
	 
	 	(vii)	 	All transfer expenses of a Note, including legal fees of an
opinion of the transferor Noteholder’s counsel, or, in the discretion of the
Company, an opinion of the Company’s counsel, as set forth in clause (ii) of
this Section 1.7, shall be paid by the transferor Noteholder except to the
extent the expenses are waived or paid by the Company, in the Company’s sole
discretion.

	 	(b)	 	Promptly following the transfer of all or any portion of a Note or any interest
in Note, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Registrar of the transfer and
provide the Registrar with a copy of the written assignment, any other transfer
instruments and a Company Order as required by this Section 1.7.

1.8. Cancellation of Master Note. At any time after all of the Notes have been fully paid in
accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company may deliver the Master Note to the
Trustee for cancellation and the Trustee shall return the cancelled Master Note to the Company.

1.9. Persons Deemed Noteholders. Before the registration of any transfer of a Note in accordance
with Section 1.7, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and their agents may
treat the Person in whose name the Note is registered on the Note Register as the owner of the Note
for the purpose of receiving payments of the unpaid principal of, and interest on, the Note and for
all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not the Note is in default, and regardless of any notice
they may have to the contrary.

ARTICLE II – REDEMPTION OF NOTES

2.1. General.

	 	(a)	 	The Notes may be called for redemption, in whole or in part, at any time at the
option of the Company at a price, based on the public offering price of $5,000 per Note
regardless of the actual subscription price paid, equal to:

3

 

	 	(i)	 	100% of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, if the
redemption is in whole; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	100% of the portion of the unpaid principal amount of the Notes,
if the redemption is in part;

	 	 	 	together with accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date (the “Redemption
Price”). If the Company elects to redeem the Notes, it shall, not later than thirty
(30) days before the redemption date (the “Redemption
Date”), deliver notice of its
election to the Trustee, the Registrar the Paying Agent and the Noteholders, and
provide a Company Order to the Paying Agent and the Registrar directing them to
affect the redemption. Any redemption of the Notes shall be without premium or
penalty, and all redeemed Notes shall be cancelled and not reissued by the Company.
Subject to Section 2.1(b), all payments to Noteholders pursuant to a redemption of
the Notes shall be allocated among the Noteholders as their respective interests
appear in Exhibit 1 to the Master Note.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Notwithstanding Section 2.1(a), a Noteholder may request in writing redemption
of all or a portion of the Noteholder’s Notes at the price set forth in clause (c) of
this Section 2.1 (the “Presentment Price”) beginning on a date at least one year after
the Offering Termination Date. Any request for redemption by a Noteholder shall be in a
form satisfactory to the Manager, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar, and
shall be subject to the Company’s determination, in its sole discretion, that:

	 	(i)	 	the redemption will not impair the capital or operations of the
Company and the Company has adequate Net Cash Flow to effect the redemption;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the redemption will not materially impair the Company’s ability
to repay its remaining Note obligations under this Indenture and the Master
Note; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	the redemption is otherwise in the best interest of the Company
under the circumstances.

	 	 	 	Redemption requests must be signed by all of the Noteholders owning the Notes or the
portion of the Notes to be redeemed, and generally may be accepted by the Company,
subject to the foregoing, in order of receipt by the Company. If, however, the
Company receives requests to redeem more Notes than it has funds to redeem in the
Company’s sole discretion, then it expects to give priority:

	 	•	 	first, to hardship redemptions (e.g., requests arising from death, major
medical expense, family emergency, disability, a material loss of family income,
etc.);
	 
	 	•	 	second, to provide liquidity for IRAs or qualified plans to meet required
distributions; and
	 
	 	•	 	third, to all other redemption requests.

	 	 	 	The Company shall notify a Noteholder requesting the redemption of the Noteholder’s
Note within thirty (30) days of receipt whether the Company will approve the
redemption request and, if the redemption is approved, the Redemption Date. If the
Company agrees to redeem a Note, the Company shall provide a notice of redemption to
the Trustee, the Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Noteholder in accordance with
Section 2.2. In addition, any related transfer expenses and fees shall be paid by
the transferor Noteholder as provided in Section 1.7(a)(vi) or deducted by the
Company from the Presentment Price.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Presentment Price for one Note shall equal the public offering price of
$5,000 per Note, regardless of the actual subscription price paid, less:

	 	(i)	 	any Dealer-Manager Fee, sales commission and reimbursements of
accountable bona fide due diligence expenses paid per Note;

4

 

	 	(ii)	 	the Manager’s 2% organization and offering expense allowance in
an amount equal to $100 per Note; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	any unpaid principal payments on the Note on or before the
Redemption Date;

	 	 	 	which Presentment Price shall be set forth in the notice of redemption from the
Company to the Trustee, the Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Noteholder as
provided in Section 2.2, below.
	 
	 	(d) 	 	Any Note redeemed by the Company shall be deemed to be paid in full on payment
to the Noteholder of the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may be.
Following the completion of any redemption, Exhibit 1 to the Master Note shall be
amended accordingly by the Registrar
	 
	 	(e)	 	If all of the Outstanding Notes are redeemed as provided above, the Company may
deliver the Master Note to the Trustee for cancellation as set forth in Section 1.8.

2.2. Notice of Redemption. With respect to every Note to be redeemed:

	 	(a)	 	At least ten (10) days, but not more than sixty (60) days, before the
Redemption Date the Company shall mail a notice of redemption by first-class mail to
each Noteholder whose Note will be redeemed, in whole or in part, and provide a copy of
each notice to the Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent. Except as provided by
Section 2.3, an inadvertent failure to give the notice of redemption to any Noteholder,
or any immaterial defect in the notice, shall not impair or affect the validity of the
redemption of any Note.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state:

	 	(i)	 	the Redemption Date;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may
be;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	the name and address of the Paying Agent; and
	 
	 	(iv)	 	that interest on the Notes, with respect to the portion of the
unpaid principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, ceases to accrue on and
after the Redemption Date.

2.3. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption has been given, the Notes to be
redeemed shall be redeemed on the designated Redemption Date. On surrender to the Paying Agent of
written confirmation by each Noteholder of the redemption as the Paying Agent may require, if any,
the Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may be.
Unless the Company fails to deposit the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may
be, as provided in Section 2.4, no interest shall accrue on the Notes for any period after the
Redemption Date.

2.4. Deposit of Redemption Amount. At least one (1) Business Day, or such longer period as the
Paying Agent may reasonably request, but not to exceed, in any event, ten (10) Business Days,
before the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent immediately available
funds in an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may
be, on the Notes to be redeemed that date. Pursuant to a Company Order the Company’s immediately
available funds shall be segregated and held by the Paying Agent for the purpose of redeeming the
Notes on the Redemption Date. If the deposit is made in this manner, the amount payable on the
Notes shall be limited to the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may be, for
the Notes, without any premium or penalty, and no interest shall accrue on the Notes to be redeemed
or the Redemption Price or the Presentment Price, as the case may be, of the Notes for any period
after the Redemption Date.

ARTICLE III – AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

3.1. Payment of Unpaid Principal and Interest. The Company shall duly and timely pay the unpaid
principal of,

5

 

and interest on, the Master Note, and thereby on the Notes, in accordance with the terms of the
Master Note and this Indenture, and the Company shall comply with all of the other terms,
agreements and conditions contained in this Indenture for the benefit of the Noteholders. If the
Paying Agent is required by any law or regulation to make any deduction or withholding from any
payment due under the Notes on account of any present or future taxes, charges or fees, then the
Paying Agent shall:

	 	(a)	 	notify the Company, the Trustee and each affected Noteholder as soon as it
becomes aware of that requirement; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	remit when due the amount of the taxes to the appropriate taxation authority
before the date on which penalties attach to the tax payments.

The amount of taxes so withheld and remitted shall be deemed to be a payment under the Master Note
and, thus, a payment under the affected Noteholder’s Note.

3.2. Payment of Charges. The Company shall pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged,
promptly as and when due or before becoming delinquent, all Charges payable by the Company. The
Company may in good faith contest, by appropriate proceedings, the validity or amount of any

	 	(a)	 	adequate reserves with respect to the contest are maintained on the books of
the Company in accordance with GAAP;
	 
	 	(b)	 	no Lien (other than Permitted Liens) that is superior to the Lien securing
payment of the Secured Obligations is imposed to secure payment of the Charges and the
contest is maintained and prosecuted continuously and with diligence;
	 
	 	(c)	 	none of the Company’s Assets becomes subject to forfeiture or loss as a result
of the contest; and
	 
	 	(d)	 	the Company promptly pays or discharges the contested Charges and all
additional charges, interest, penalties and expenses, if any, if the contest is
terminated adversely to the Company or the conditions set forth in this Section 3.2 are
no longer met.

3.3. Reports; Financial Statements; Compliance Certificate.

	 	(a)	 	The Company shall use reasonable efforts to distribute to each Noteholder by
January 31 after the end of each calendar year, at the Company’s expense, all tax
information regarding each Noteholder’s Loan that is necessary for the preparation of
the Noteholder‘s federal and state income tax or information tax returns. If
the Company is unable to provide that information to the Noteholder by that date, the
Company shall provide that information as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable.
The Company intends to provide each Noteholder with the tax information on a Form 1099.
	 
	 	(b)	 	No later than sixty (60) days after the last day of each calendar quarter
during the term of the Master Note, the Company shall provide to each Noteholder, the
Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent a report reflecting all interest and
unpaid principal payments, if any, made to the Noteholders for that quarter and a
summary status report regarding the Company’s operations during that quarter.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Company shall cause to be prepared at its expense, and shall distribute to
each Noteholder and the Trustee, within one hundred twenty (120) days following the end
of each fiscal year of the Company, annual audited financial statements of the Company,
including a balance sheet, statement of income or loss, a statement of its members’
equity, and a statement of cash flows.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Each quarterly and annual report to the Trustee and the Noteholders provided by
the Company shall be accompanied by a compliance certificate signed by the Chief
Financial Officer of the Company’s Manager to the effect that:

6

 

	 	(i)	 	a review of the activities of the Company was made under his or
her supervision to determine whether the Company had fulfilled all of its
obligations under this Indenture as of the date of the report; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	that all representations, covenants and warranties made by the
Company in this Indenture were true and correct in all material respects (or
specifying the nature of any change) as of the date of the report or, if the
Company is in default as of the date of the report, specifying the nature and
status of the default.

3.4. Books and Records; Inspection. The Company shall keep proper books, records and accounts in
which full, true and correct entries are made of its business. The registered office of the
Company in Delaware is 110 South Poplar Street, Suite 101, Wilmington, Delaware 19801. On at least
three (3) Business Days prior written notice from the Trustee, the Company shall provide the
Trustee access, during normal business hours, at the Company’s offices to:

	 	(a)	 	inspect the documents related to the Company’s Assets; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	examine, copy and make extracts from the books, records and other documents in
the possession of the Company relating to the affairs of the Company with respect to
the Assets.

all requested documents and information as the Trustee, from time to time, reasonably determines to
be necessary or convenient, in the Trustee’s sole discretion, to fulfill its obligations to the
Noteholders and otherwise perform its duties as provided in this Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall promptly provide to the Trustee the following documents and
information without request by the Trustee:

	 	(a)	 	Contemporaneously with the provision of quarterly reports to the Trustee in
accordance with Section 3.3(b), the Company shall provide the Trustee an accounting of
all payments of interest and unpaid principal made to each Noteholder during the
quarter.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Within a reasonable time after each Closing Date and the making of a Loan by
each Noteholder, the Company shall provide the Trustee with a copy of the Noteholder’s
Subscription Agreement and Execution Page, as included in Exhibit E to the Memorandum,
completed and signed by the Noteholder. In addition, the Company shall notify the
Trustee of any subsequent changes to any Noteholder’s Subscription Agreement and
Execution Page of which the Company has actual notice.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Immediately on making any amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Formation
or Limited Liability Company Agreement, the Company shall provide a copy of the
amendment to the Trustee.

3.7. Compliance with Laws. The Company shall comply with all acts, rules, regulations and orders
of any legislative, administrative or judicial body or official applicable to the Company if the
Company determines that noncompliance with those acts, rules, regulations or orders could
reasonably have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, the Company may contest or dispute
any of the foregoing by appropriate actions or proceedings diligently pursued, if adequate reserves
in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto are established and maintained by the Company.

3.8. Notices. The Company shall promptly, but in any event within two (2) Business Days after first
becoming aware thereof, notify the Trustee in writing of:

	 	(a)	 	any event, including, but not limited to, the beginning of any action, suit, or
proceeding against the Company, that the Company determines could reasonably have a
Material Adverse Effect, which notice shall specify the nature of the event and what
action the Company has taken, is taking or proposes to take with respect to that event;
and

7

 

	 	(b)	 	the occurrence of any Event of Default, which notice shall specify the nature
of the event, the condition or default giving rise to the Event of Default and what
action the Company has taken, is taking or proposes to take with respect to the Event
of Default.

3.9. Further Assurances. The Company shall duly execute and deliver to the Trustee from time to
time all supplemental agreements, statements, assignments and transfers, or instructions or
documents as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to carry into effect the full intent of
this Indenture.

ARTICLE IV – NEGATIVE COVENANTS

the Company’s Interest Coverage Ratio shall not, at any time, be less than 1:10 to 1:0.

4.3. Company’s Management Fees Paid to the Manager and its Affiliates. The Company agrees that at

it to the Manager or its Affiliates, and the Management Fees shall be subordinated, on a cumulative
basis and without interest:

	 	(a)	 	the sum of LEAF Financial’s initial cash capital contribution to the Company on
or before the Offering Termination Date plus LEAF Financial’s additional capital

money or other Assets payable or deliverable on any of those claims. Any amounts
received from the Company by the custodian or any other Person in any judicial or other
proceeding are hereby authorized by each Noteholder to be paid:

16

 

	 	(i)	 	to the Trustee and in that the event the Trustee agrees to
forward the payments directly to the Noteholders; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	to the Trustee for any amount due to it for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, and to pay any other amounts due the Trustee under this Indenture.

	 	 	 	To the extent that the payment of any compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee under this Indenture out of the estate in the proceeding is denied for any
reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of,
any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other Assets that the
Noteholders may be entitled to receive in the proceeding, whether in liquidation of
the Company or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement of the Company or
otherwise.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Nothing contained in this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to, or accept or adopt, on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Company affecting the
Notes or the rights of any Noteholder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect
of the claim of any Noteholder in any proceeding.

7.9. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this
Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a
court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking
to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to
the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 7.9
does not apply to a suit by the Trustee or a Majority of the Noteholders.

7.10. Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company agrees (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist on, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim, and will
resist any and all efforts to be compelled to take the benefits or advantage of, any stay or
extension law or any usury or other similar law, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the unpaid
principal of and/or interest on the Notes as contemplated in this Indenture, or which may affect
the covenants or performance of this Indenture. The Company (to the extent that it may lawfully
do so) expressly waives all benefits and advantages of any of those laws and agrees that it will
not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted to the Trustee and the Noteholders
in this Indenture and will permit the execution of the Trustee’s and the Noteholders’ powers under
this Indenture as though those laws had not been enacted.

	 	(a)	 	If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall
exercise the rights and powers vested in it under this Indenture and use the same

would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Except during the continuance of an Event of Default known to the Trustee:

	 	(i)	 	the Trustee need perform only those duties that are specifically

conclusively rely as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the
opinions expressed in certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee by any
Person that the Trustee has determined conform on their face to the requirements
of this Indenture.

	 	(c)	 	The Trustee shall not be relieved from liability under this Indenture for its
own negligent action, its

17

	 	(i)	 	this paragraph does not limit the effect of paragraph (b) of this
Section 8.1;

takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a written direction
received by it from a Majority of the Noteholders relating to the time, method,

or exercising any right or power conferred on the Trustee, under this Indenture;

assured to it.

	 	(d)	 	The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall not be liable for interest on any money

stated in the document.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s

expected to be incurred by it in compliance with the Noteholders’ request or direction.
	 
	 	(e)	 	The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or
matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,

as a duty.

18

 

	 	(g)	 	The Trustee shall not required to take notice, and shall not be deemed to have
notice, of any default or Event of Default under this Indenture unless a Responsible
Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of the default or Event of Default or
has received notice in writing of the default or Event of Default from the Company or a
Majority of the Noteholders, and in the absence of any such notice, the Trustee may
conclusively assume that no default or Event of Default exists.
	 
	 	(h)	 	The Trustee, the Registrar and the Paying Agent shall not be required to give
any bond or surety with respect to the performance of their respective duties or the
exercise of their respective powers under this Indenture.

liable in its individual capacity for the obligations evidenced by the Master Note or
the Notes.

	 	(i)	 	extend to the Trustee‘s officers, directors, agents,
attorneys and employees; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	together with the Trustee’s right to compensation and
indemnification;

	 	 	 	survive the Trustee’s resignation or removal, the discharge of this Indenture and the
final payment of the Notes.
	 
	 	(k)	 	Except for information provided by the Trustee concerning the Trustee, the
Trustee shall have no responsibility for the Memorandum or any sales literature, sales
materials or other information provided to the Noteholders, the selling dealers or any
other Person with respect to the Loans and Notes.
	 
	 	(l)	 	Whether or not expressly provided in this Indenture, every provision of this
Indenture relating to the conduct of, or affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.2.
	 
	 	(m)	 	Any action taken or not taken by the Trustee in good faith pursuant to this
Indenture on the request, authority or consent of a Noteholder shall be conclusive and
binding on all future holders of that Note and on any securities executed and delivered
in exchange for or in place of that Note.

8.3. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, in its individual capacity or in any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its
Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent or Registrar

8.4. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for, and makes no representation
as to the validity or adequacy of, this Indenture, the Master Note, the Loans, the Notes, the
Assets, the Secured Obligations or the Liens granted it under this Indenture or the perfection or
priority of those Liens. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the Company’s or Paying Agent’s
use or application of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes and shall not be responsible for any
statement:

	 	(a)	 	in the Master Note, other than the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication; or
	 
	 	(b)	 	in the Memorandum, any sales literature, sales materials or any other
information used by the Company or the selling dealers in the sale of the Notes, other
than statements provided in writing by the Trustee for use in the Memorandum, if any.

8.5. Notice of Default. If a Responsible Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of a
continuing Event of Default or the Trustee has received notice in writing of an Event of Default
from the Company or a Majority of the

19

 

Noteholders, the Trustee shall mail notice of the Event of Default to each Noteholder within ten
(10) Business Days after it obtains actual knowledge or written notice of the Event of Default.
Except in the case of an Event of Default resulting from the Company’s failure to pay unpaid
principal or interest on any Note, the Trustee may withhold giving the notice if and so long as the
Board of Directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of the directors and/or
Responsible Trust Officers of the Trustee determines in good faith that withholding notice is in
the best interests of the Noteholders.

8.6. Compensation and Indemnity.

	 	(a)	 	From time to time the Company shall pay to the Trustee, as compensation for its
services under this Indenture, the amounts that are agreed on from time to time by the
Trustee and the Company. In addition, the Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly
on request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it for its services
under this Indenture. Those expenses of the Trustee shall include the reasonable
compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and outside counsel.
The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law related to the compensation
of a trustee of an express trust.
	 
	 	(b)	 	The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its successors
and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys (the
“Indemnified Persons”) against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs (including the costs and expenses
of defending itself), expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Trustee and those other
Indemnified Persons in connection with the performance by the Trustee of its duties
under this Indenture. The Trustee and those other Indemnified Persons shall notify the
Company promptly of any claim for which it or they may seek indemnity, but failure to
so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this
Section 8.6. The Company, however, shall not be required to pay any settlement made
without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, the
Company shall not be required to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or
liability incurred by the Trustee or any other Indemnified Person through the Trustee’s
or the other Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith, negligence or willful
misconduct.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The obligations set forth in this Section 8.6 shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture and the payment of the Notes.
	 
	 	(d)	 	When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after the occurrence of an
Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(d) or (e), the expenses and the compensation
for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under the
bankruptcy laws.

8.7. Replacement of Trustee.

	 	(a)	 	The Trustee may resign at any time on thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to
the Company. A Majority of the Noteholders may remove the Trustee at any time on thirty
(30) days’ prior written notice to the Trustee and the Company. The Company shall
remove the Trustee if:

	 	(i)	 	the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or
its property.

	 	(b)	 	Subject to Section 8.7(c), if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a
vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee. The resignation or removal of the Trustee shall not be
effective until a successor Trustee has been appointed and has assumed the
responsibilities of Trustee under this Section 8.7(b).
	 
	 	(c)	 	Notwithstanding Section 8.7(b), if the Trustee is removed by a Majority of the
Noteholders, then a Majority of the Noteholders may appoint a successor Trustee, but
only by naming the successor Trustee in the notice of removal of the Trustee given to
the Trustee and the Company. If no

20

 

	 	 	 	successor Trustee is so named, then the Company shall promptly appoint a successor
Trustee. The Manager and its Affiliates, if they own Notes, shall have no right to
vote on the removal or replacement of a Trustee, and for these purposes the Notes
owned by them shall not be taken into account in determining a Majority of the
Noteholders.
	 
	 	(d)	 	A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to
the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately thereafter, the retiring Trustee
shall transfer all Assets held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee. On delivery
to the retiring Trustee of the successor Trustee’s written acceptance of its
appointment, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective
and the retiring Trustee shall cease to be Trustee under this Indenture and shall be
discharged from any responsibility or obligations for actions taken (or not taken) by
any successor Trustee. The successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and
duties of the Trustee under this Indenture, but shall have no responsibility or
obligations for actions taken (or not taken) by any previous Trustee. A successor
Trustee shall mail notice of its succession as Trustee under this Indenture to each
Noteholder.
	 
	 	(e)	 	If a successor Trustee does not take office within sixty (60) days after the
retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or a Majority
of the Noteholders may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor Trustee.

8.8. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into,
or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets to, another Person, the
resulting, surviving or transferee Person without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

ARTICLE IX – DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

9.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect
and the Trustee, on the Company’s demand and at the Company’s expense, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

	 	(a)	 	the Notes:

	 	(i)	 	have become due and payable; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	are to be called for redemption in conformance with the
provisions of Section 3; and

	 	 	 	the Company has deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent as trust funds an
amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes, or the
entire Redemption Price or Presentment Price, as the case may be, with respect to the
Outstanding Notes on redemption, if applicable;
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Company has paid all other sums payable under this Indenture by the
Company; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	the Company has delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that
all conditions precedent in this Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture have been complied with.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the Company under Sections 8.6 and 12.4
shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

9.2. Application of Trust Money. All money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent pursuant
to Section 9.1 shall be held in trust and applied by it in accordance with the provisions of the
Master Note and this Indenture to the payment, either directly or through the Paying Agent, as the
Trustee and the Paying Agent shall be directed by Company Order, to the Persons entitled thereto;
but the money need not be segregated from other funds held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent
except to the extent required by law.

21

 

9.3. Repayment to Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company on
its request any money or securities held by them at any time in excess of the amounts needed to pay
and discharge the Outstanding Notes in full. In addition, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
pay the Company on request any money or securities held by them for the payment of unpaid principal
or interest on the Outstanding Notes that remains unclaimed for two years. After payment to the
Company, Noteholders entitled to the funds must look to the Company for the payment of the
unclaimed unpaid principal or interest on the Outstanding Notes, and neither the Trustee nor the
Paying Agent shall have any further duty or liability with respect thereto.

the waiver will not have a Material Adverse Affect on the Noteholders, the Registrar or the Paying
Agent. The Trustee shall not be liable to the Company, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any
Noteholder or their respective successors in interest for any waiver made by it in good faith in

the Master Note, the Trustee may require the Company to deliver the Master Note to the Trustee and
the Trustee may place an

22

return the Master Note to the Company. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines,
the Company shall issue, and the Trustee shall authenticate, a new Master Note that reflects the
changed terms in exchange for the prior Master Note and the prior Master Note shall be cancelled.

10.5. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver
to this Indenture or the Master Note authorized under this Article after the amendment, supplement
