ARTICLE II 
 TERMS OF
THE LOANS 
 SECTION 2.01.    Loan Facility. Upon a request by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 2.02, and on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, each Lender shall, ratably, in accordance with its respective Commitments, severally and not jointly, make Loans to the Borrower on a
revolving basis from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date. Under no circumstances shall any Lender be obligated to make any such Loan if, after giving effect to such Loan: 

(a)    the Aggregate Principal would exceed the Facility Limit at such time; 

(b)    the aggregate outstanding Principal of such Lender would exceed its Commitment; or 

(c)    the Aggregate Principal would exceed the Borrowing Base at such time. 

  
 32 

 SECTION 2.02.    Making Loans; Repayment of Loans. 

(a)    Each Loan hereunder shall be made on a Business Day at the prior written request from the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender in the form of a Loan Request attached hereto as Exhibit A; provided that, at any time when PNC (or an Affiliate thereof) is both the Administrative Agent and the sole Lender hereunder, if the
Borrower enters into a separate written agreement with the Administrative Agent regarding the Administrative Agent’s PINACLE® auto-advance service (or any similar or replacement
electronic loan administration service implemented by the Administrative Agent), then any request for a Loan made using such service shall constitute a Loan Request, and each Loan made pursuant to such service shall be made on the date such Loan
Request is received by the Administrative Agent. Each such request for a Loan shall be made no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) (i) with respect to a Loan in an amount that is less than or equal to fifty million dollars ($50,000,000),
on the proposed date of such Loan and (ii) with respect to a Loan in an amount that is greater than fifty million dollars ($50,000,000), on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed date of such Loan (it being
understood that, in each case, any such request made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the following Business Day) and shall specify (A) the amount of the Loan(s) requested (which shall not be less than one hundred
thousand dollars ($100,000) and shall be an integral multiple of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000)), (B) the allocation of such amount among the Lenders (which shall be ratable based on the Commitments), (C) the account to which the proceeds
of such Loan shall be distributed and (D) the date such requested Loan is to be made (which shall be a Business Day). 

(b)    On the date of each Loan specified in the applicable Loan Request, the Lender shall, upon satisfaction of the
applicable conditions set forth in Article VI and pursuant to the other conditions set forth in this Article II, make available to the Borrower in same day funds an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Loans requested, at the
account set forth in the related Loan Request. 
 (c)    Each Lender’s obligation shall be several, such that the
failure of any Lender to make available to the Borrower any funds in connection with any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make funds available on the date such Loans are requested (it
being understood, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make funds available to the Borrower in connection with any Loan hereunder). 

(d)    The Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding Principal of each Lender on the Final Maturity Date. Prior
thereto, the Borrower shall, on each Settlement Date, make a prepayment of the outstanding Principal of the Lenders to the extent required under Section 4.01 and otherwise in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower, in its discretion, shall have the right to make a prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding Principal of the Lenders (i) at any time when PNC (or an Affiliate thereof) is both the Administrative Agent and the
sole Lender hereunder, and to the extent the Borrower has entered into a separate written agreement with the Administrative Agent regarding the Administrative Agent’s PINACLE®
auto-advance service (or any similar or replacement electronic loan administration service implemented by the Administrative Agent) pursuant to Section 2.02(a) hereof, on any Business Day, or (ii) upon same-day written notice delivered by the Borrower no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed date of such prepayment (it being 

  
 33 

 
understood that any such notice made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the following Business Day) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender in the form of a Reduction
Notice attached hereto as Exhibit B; provided, however, that (i) each such prepayment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) and shall be an integral multiple of one hundred
thousand dollars ($100,000), (ii) the Borrower shall not provide any Reduction Notice, and no such Reduction Notice shall be effective, if after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Principal at such time would be less than an amount equal to the
Minimum Funding Threshold and (iii) any accrued Interest and Fees in respect of such prepaid Principal shall be paid on the immediately following Settlement Date; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, a prepayment
may be in an amount necessary to reduce any Borrowing Base Deficit existing at such time or the outstanding Principal of the Lender to zero ($0). 

(e)    The Borrower may, at any time upon at least (i) thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice in case
of a termination in whole and (ii) ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice in case of a termination in part, in either case, to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, terminate the Facility Limit in whole or ratably reduce the
Facility Limit in part. Each partial reduction in the Facility Limit shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of ten million dollars ($10,000,000) or integral multiples of five million dollars ($5,000,000) in excess thereof, and no such partial
reduction shall reduce the Facility Limit to an amount less than fifty million dollars ($50,000,000). In connection with any partial reduction in the Facility Limit, the Commitment of each Lender shall be ratably reduced. 

(f)    In connection with any reduction of the Commitments, the Borrower shall remit to the Administrative Agent
(i) instructions regarding such reduction and (ii) for payment to the Lenders, cash in an amount sufficient to pay (A) Principal of each Lender in excess of the Commitment of such Lender and (B) all other outstanding Borrower
Obligations with respect to such reduction (determined based on the ratio of the reduction of the Commitments being effected to the amount of the Commitments prior to such reduction or, if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any
portion of the outstanding Borrower Obligations is allocable solely to that portion of the Commitments being reduced or has arisen solely as a result of such reduction, all of such portion) including, without duplication, any associated Breakage
Fees. Upon receipt of any such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall apply such amounts first to the reduction of the outstanding Principal, and second to the payment of the remaining outstanding Borrower Obligations with respect to such
reduction, including any Breakage Fees, by paying such amounts to the Lenders. 
 SECTION 2.03.    Defaulting
Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a)    Undrawn Fees (as defined in the Fee Letter) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such
Defaulting Lender. 
 (b)    The Commitment and Principal of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining
whether the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 13.01); provided, that, except as otherwise provided
in Section 13.01, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly
affected thereby (if such Lender is directly affected thereby). 

  
 34 

 (c)    In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the
Servicer each agrees in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the
Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans ratably in accordance with the Commitment of such Lender; provided, that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued
or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender, and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender
that is not a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 

ARTICLE III 
 INTEREST
RATES; FEES 
 SECTION 3.01.    Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the
outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by it from the Base Rate Option, Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option or BSBY Rate Option specified below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect
to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than three (3) Borrowing Tranches; provided further that if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may not request, convert to, or renew the BSBY Rate Option or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option for any Loans and the Majority Lenders may demand that all existing Borrowing Tranches bearing interest under the
BSBY Rate Option or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option shall be converted immediately to the Base Rate Option, subject to the obligation of the Borrower to pay any Breakage Fees in connection with such conversion. If at any time the designated rate
applicable to any Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. 

(a)    Interest Rate Options. The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options
applicable to the Loans: 
 (i)    Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or 

  
 35 

 (ii)    BSBY Rate Option: A rate per annum
(computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the BSBY Rate as determined for each applicable Interest Period; or 

(iii)    Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal the Daily BSBY Floating Rate, such rate to change automatically from day to day and time to time in accordance with the definition thereof. 

(b)    Rate Quotations. The Borrower may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan
Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually
in effect when the election is made. 
 SECTION 3.02.    Interest Periods. At any time when the Borrower shall
select, convert to or renew a BSBY Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such BSBY Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice shall
specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a BSBY Rate Option: 

(a)    Amount of Borrowing Tranche. Each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the BSBY Rate Option shall be in integral
multiples of, and not less than, the respective amounts specified in Section 2.02(a); and 

(b)    Renewals. In the case of the renewal of a BSBY Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day
of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day. 

SECTION 3.03.    Interest After Default. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, at the discretion of the Administrative Agent or upon written demand by the Majority Lenders to the Administrative Agent: 

(a)    Interest Rate. The rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to
Section 3.01(a), shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per annum (such increased rate, the “Default Rate”); 

(b)    Other Obligations. Each other Borrower Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option plus an additional two percent (2.00%) per annum from the time such Borrower Obligation becomes due and payable until the time such Borrower
Obligation is paid in full; and 
 (c)    Acknowledgment. The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates
referred to in this Section 3.03 reflects, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional
compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand by the Administrative Agent. 

  
 36 

 SECTION 3.04.    BSBY Rate Unascertainable; Increased Costs;
Illegality; Benchmark Replacement Setting. 
 (a)    Unascertainable; Increased Costs. If, on or prior to the
first day of an Interest Period: 
 (i)    the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) the BSBY Rate or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option cannot be determined because it is not available or published on a current basis; (y) adequate and reasonable
means do not otherwise exist for determining any requested Interest Periods with respect to an existing or proposed BSBY Rate Loan; or (z) a fundamental change has occurred with respect to the BSBY Rate or Daily BSBY Floating Rate (including,
changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions), 
 (ii)    any Lender
shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto absent manifest error) that for any reason in connection with any request for a BSBY Rate Loan or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Loan or a conversion
thereto or a continuation thereof that the BSBY Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed BSBY Rate Loan or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such Loan,

 then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.04(c). 

(b)    Illegality. If at any time any Lender shall have determined that the making, maintenance or funding of any
BSBY Rate Loan or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Loan has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Applicable Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority or with any request
or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Applicable Law), then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.04(c). 

(c)    Administrative Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. In the case of any event
specified in Section 3.04(a)(i) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof, and in the case of an event specified in
Section 3.04(a)(ii) or 3.04(b) above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative
Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of
(i) the Lenders, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (ii) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a BSBY Rate Loan or Daily BSBY
Floating Rate Loan shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Daily BSBY Floating Rate Loan, BSBY Rate Loan or Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified the Borrower, or such Lender shall have later notified
the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative 

  
 37 

 
Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Administrative Agent
makes a determination under Section 3.04(a) and the Borrower has previously notified the Administrative Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a BSBY Rate Option or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option and the
BSBY Rate Option or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option, as applicable, has not yet gone into effect, absent due notice from the Borrower of revocation, conversion or prepayment, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion
to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under Section 3.04(a)(ii) or 3.04(b), the Borrower shall,
subject to the Borrower’s obligation to pay any Breakage Fees, as to any Loan of the Lender to which a BSBY Rate Option or Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either convert such Loan to the Base Rate
Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 2.02(d). Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the
Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date. 
 (d)    Benchmark
Replacement Setting. 
 (i)    Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with
clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of
such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in
accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document
in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of
any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Majority Lenders. 

(ii)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and
administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent (in its reasonable discretion following consultation with the Borrower) will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a 

  
 38

discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.04(d). 

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

(v)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the
commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Loan bearing interest based on the BSBY Screen Rate, conversion to or continuation of Loans bearing interest based on the BSBY Screen Rate to be made,
converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Loan of or conversion to Loans bearing interest under the Base Rate Option.
During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable,
will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

 (vi)    Definitions. As used in this
Section 3.04(d): 
 “Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and
with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (a) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate or is based on a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period or
(b) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement as of such date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Available Tenor for the Daily BSBY Floating Rate is one
month. 
 “Benchmark” means, initially, the BSBY Screen Rate; provided that if a replacement of the
Benchmark has occurred pursuant to this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting”, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark
rate. Any reference to “Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof. 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below
that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 

(a)    the sum of: (i) Term SOFR and (ii) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 

(b)    the sum of: (i) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to any evolving or then-prevailing market convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant
Governmental Body, for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities or similar U.S. dollar denominated secured financing or securitization transactions relating to the relevant asset class, as applicable, at such time and (ii) the
related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; 
 provided that, in the case of clause (a), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is
displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided; further that if the Benchmark Replacement as determined
pursuant to clause (a), (b) or (c) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; and provided further, that any
such Benchmark Replacement shall be administratively feasible as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. 

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with
an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement: 

(a)    for purposes of clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” 0.10% (10
basis points); 

  
 40 

 (b)    for purposes of clause (b) of the definition
of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for
the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to any evolving or then-prevailing market convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant Governmental Body, for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit
facilities or similar U.S. dollar denominated secured financing or securitization transactions relating to the relevant asset class, as applicable, at such time; 

provided that, if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, more than one tenor of such Benchmark is available as of the applicable
Benchmark Replacement Date and the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement will not be a term rate, the Available Tenor of such Benchmark for purposes of this definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” shall be deemed to be the
Available Tenor that has approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustments) as the payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement. 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent, which date shall be
at the end of an Interest Period and no later than the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: 

(a)    in the case of clause (a) or (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,”
the later of (i) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (ii) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or
indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 

(b)    in the case of clause (c) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the
later of (i) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (ii) the date specified by the administrator of such Benchmark or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent
or such administrator on which the Benchmark is or will no longer be compliant with, or the administration of such Benchmark fails to be aligned with, the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial
Benchmarks the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks; or 

(c)    in the case of clause (d) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the
first Business Day following the fifth (5th) consecutive Business Day that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark are not published. 
 For
the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have
occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” 

  
 41 

 
will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a), (b) and (c) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to
all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to any
then-current Benchmark: 
 (a)    a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the
administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark, (or such component thereof), permanently or
indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or component thereof); 

(b)    a public statement or publication of information by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction
over the Administrative Agent, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official
with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution
authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof)
permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

(c)    the administrator of the Benchmark or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the
Administrative Agent or such administrator has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all Available Tenors of the Benchmark are or will no longer be compliant with, or the administration of all Available Tenors of the
Benchmark fails to be aligned with, the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks; or 

(d)    all Available Tenors of the Benchmark are not published by the administrator of such Benchmark for
five (5) consecutive Business Days and such failure is not the result of a temporary moratorium, embargo or disruption declared by the administrator of such Benchmark or by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark. 

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means the period (if any) (a) beginning at the time that a Benchmark
Replacement Date pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) of that definition 

  
 42 

 
has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in accordance with this
Section 3.04(d) titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” and (b) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction
Document in accordance with this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.” 
 “CIP
Regulations” has the meaning set forth in Section 11.10. 
 “Corresponding
Tenor” with respect to any Available Tenor means, as applicable, either a tenor (including overnight) or an interest payment period having approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustment) as such Available Tenor. 

“Floor” means the benchmark rate floor, if any, provided in this Agreement initially (as of the execution of
this Agreement, the modification, amendment or renewal of this Agreement or otherwise) with respect to the BSBY Rate or Daily BSBY Floating Rate or, if no floor is specified, zero. 

“Reference Time” means, with respect to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, the time determined by the
Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. 
 “Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve
Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto. 

“Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement excluding the related Benchmark
Replacement Adjustment. 
 SECTION 3.05.    Selection of Interest Rate Options. If the Borrower fails to select a
new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the BSBY Rate Option at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3.02, the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Daily BSBY Floating Rate commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period. If the Borrower provides any Loan Request
related to a Loan at the BSBY Rate Option but fails to identify an Interest Period therefor, such Loan Request shall be deemed to request an Interest Period of one (1) month. Any Loan Request that fails to select an Interest Rate Option shall
be deemed to be a request for the Daily BSBY Floating Rate Option. 
 SECTION 3.06.    Interest Payment Dates.
Each Loan shall accrue Interest on each day when such Loan remains outstanding at the then applicable Interest Rate for the Borrowing Tranche relating to such Loan. The Borrower shall pay all Interest (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all
Interest accrued on BSBY Rate Loans during an Accrual Period regardless of whether the applicable Interest Period has ended), Fees and Breakage Fees accrued during each Accrual Period on each Settlement Date in accordance with the terms and
priorities for payment set forth in Section 4.01. 
 SECTION 3.07.    Fees . On each
Settlement Date, the Borrower shall, in accordance with the terms and priorities for payment set forth in Section 4.01, pay to each Lender, the 

  
 43 

 
Administrative Agent and the Structuring Agent certain fees (collectively, the “Fees”) in the amounts set forth in the fee letter agreements from time to time entered into, among
the Borrower, the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent and the Structuring Agent (each such fee letter agreement, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively being referred to herein as the
“Fee Letter”). Undrawn Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender as provided in Section 2.03. 

SECTION 3.08.    Records of Loans. Each Lender shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made
by such Lender hereunder, the interest rate with respect thereto, the Interest accrued thereon and each repayment and payment thereof. Subject to Section 13.03(b), such records shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error. The failure to so record any such information or any error in so recording any such information shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents to repay
the Principal of each Lender, together with all Interest accruing thereon and all other Borrower Obligations. 
 ARTICLE IV 

SETTLEMENT PROCEDURES AND PAYMENT PROVISIONS 

SECTION 4.01.    Settlement Procedures. 

(a)    The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or, if so requested by the
Administrative Agent, segregate in a separate account designated by the Administrative Agent, which shall be an account controlled by the Administrative Agent unless the Administrative Agent otherwise instructs in its sole discretion), for
application in accordance with the priority of payments set forth below, all Collections on Pool Receivables that are actually received by the Servicer or the Borrower or received in any Lock-Box or Collection
Account; provided, however, that so long as each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.03 are satisfied on such date, the Servicer may release to the Borrower from such Collections the amount (if
any) necessary to pay (i) the purchase price for Receivables purchased by the Borrower on such date in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement or (ii) amounts owing by the Borrower to the Originators under the
Subordinated Notes (each such release, a “Release”). On each Settlement Date, so long as the Administrative Agent has not taken dominion of the Collection Accounts, the Servicer (or, following its assumption of control of the
Collection Accounts, the Administrative Agent) shall distribute such Collections on all Pool Receivables in the following order of priority: 

(i)    first, to the Servicer for the payment of the accrued Servicing Fees payable for the
immediately preceding Accrual Period plus, if applicable, the amount of Servicing Fees payable for any prior Accrual Period to the extent such amount has not been paid to the Servicer; 

(ii)    second, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender and other Credit Party
(ratably, based on the amount then due and owing to such Persons), all accrued and unpaid Interest, Fees and Breakage Fees due to such Lender and other Credit Party for the immediately preceding Accrual Period (including any additional

  
 44 

 
amounts or indemnified amounts payable under Sections 5.03 and 12.01 in respect of such payments), plus, if applicable, the amount of any such Interest, Fees and Breakage
Fees (including any additional amounts or indemnified amounts payable under Sections 5.03 and 12.01 in respect of such payments) payable for any prior Accrual Period to the extent such amount has not been distributed to such Lender or
Credit Party; 
 (iii)    third, to (A) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Borrower and (B) on and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, an amount that shall be set aside and held in trust for upcoming insurance payments to each applicable Eligible Credit Insurance Provider of an
Eligible Credit Insurance Policy; 
 (iv)    fourth, as set forth in clause (A), (B)
or (C) below, as applicable: 
 (A)    prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date, to
the extent that a Borrowing Base Deficit exists on such date or the Aggregate Principal on such date exceeds the Facility Limit, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Principal of
each Lender at such time) for the payment of a portion of the outstanding Aggregate Principal at such time, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to reduce the Borrowing Base Deficit to zero ($0) or the amount necessary to reduce the
Aggregate Principal to an amount equal to or less than the Facility Limit, as applicable; 
 (B)    on
and after the occurrence of the Termination Date, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Principal of each Lender at such time) for the payment in full of the aggregate outstanding
Principal of such Lender at such time; or 
 (C)    prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date, at
the election of the Borrower from time to time and in accordance with Section 2.02(d), to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Lender as payment of all or any portion of the outstanding Principal of the Lenders
at such time (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Principal of each Lender at such time); 

(v)    fifth, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Credit Parties, the Affected
Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties (ratably, based on the amount due and owing at such time), for the payment of all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing by the Borrower to the Credit Parties, the Affected Persons and the Borrower
Indemnified Parties; and 
 (vi)    sixth, the balance, if any, to be paid to the Borrower for its
own account. 
 (b)    All payments or distributions to be made by the Servicer, the Borrower and any other Person to
the Lenders (or their respective related Affected Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties) shall be paid or distributed to the applicable party to which such amounts are owed. 

  
 45 

 (c)    If and to the extent the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party,
any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party shall be required for any reason to pay over to any Person (including any Obligor or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any Insolvency Proceeding) any amount received on its
behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and, accordingly, the Administrative Agent, such Credit Party, such Affected Person or such Borrower Indemnified Party, as
the case may be, shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount. 
 (d)    For the purposes of this
Section 4.01: 
 (i)    if on any day the Outstanding Balance of any Pool
Receivable is reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo, discount or other adjustment made by the Borrower, any
Originator, the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer, or any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower, an Originator or any Affiliate of an Originator, or the Servicer or any Affiliate of the
Servicer, and an Obligor, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment and, to the extent that the effect of such reduction or adjustment is to cause a
Borrowing Base Deficit or if such reduction or adjustment occurs on or after the Termination Date, shall within two (2) Business Days pay an amount equal to (x) if such reduction or adjustment occurs prior to the Termination Date, the
lesser of (A) the sum of all deemed Collections with respect to such reduction or adjustment and (B) an amount necessary to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficit and (y) if such breach occurs on or after the Termination Date, the sum
of all deemed Collections in respect thereof to a Collection Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent at such time) for the benefit of the Credit Parties for application pursuant to Section 4.01(a);

 (ii)    if on any day any of the representations or warranties in
Section 7.01 is not true with respect to any Pool Receivable, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full and, to the extent that the effect of such breach is to
cause a Borrowing Base Deficit or if such breach occurs on or after the Termination Date, shall within two (2) Business Days pay an amount equal to (x) if such breach occurs prior to the Termination Date, the lesser of (A) the sum of
all deemed Collections with respect to such breach and (B) an amount necessary to eliminate such Borrowing Base Deficit and (y) if such breach occurs on or after the Termination Date, the sum of all deemed Collections in respect thereof to
a Collection Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent at such time) for the benefit of the Credit Parties for application pursuant to Section 4.01(a) (Collections deemed to have been received pursuant
to Sections 4.01(d)(i) and 4.01(d)(ii) are hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Deemed Collections”); 

(iii)    except as provided in clauses (i) or (ii) above or otherwise required by
Applicable Law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of 

  
 46 

 
any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates in writing
its payment for application to specific Receivables; and 
 (iv)    if and to the extent the
Administrative Agent, any Credit Party, any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor (or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any Insolvency Proceeding) any
amount received by it hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received by such Person but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and, accordingly, such Person shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount, payable
when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof. 
 SECTION
4.02.    Payments and Computations, Etc. 
 (a)    All amounts to be paid by the
Borrower or the Servicer to the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party, any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party hereunder shall be paid no later than noon (12:00 p.m.) (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the
applicable party to which such amounts are due. 
 (b)    Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it when due hereunder, at an interest rate per annum equal to two percent (2.00%) per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand. 

(c)    All computations of interest under subsection (b) above and all computations of Interest, Fees and
other amounts hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of amounts determined by reference to the Base Rate, 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days (including the first but excluding the last
day) elapsed. Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the
computation of such payment or deposit. 
 ARTICLE V 

INCREASED COSTS; FUNDING LOSSES; TAXES; ILLEGALITY AND SECURITY INTEREST 

SECTION 5.01.    Increased Costs. 

(a)    Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan,
insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Affected Person; 

  
 47 

 (ii)    subject any Affected Person to any Taxes (except
to the extent such Taxes are (A)Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clause (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or
that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii)    impose on any Affected Person any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) (A)
affecting the Collateral, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document any Loan or any participation therein or (B) affecting its obligations or rights to make Loans; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Affected Person of (A) acting as the Administrative Agent or a Lender
hereunder, (B) funding or maintaining any Loan or (C) maintaining its obligation to fund or maintain any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Person hereunder, then, upon request of such Affected
Person, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b)    Principal and Liquidity Requirements. If any Affected Person determines that any Change in Law affecting
such Affected Person or any lending office of such Affected Person or such Affected Person’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of (x) increasing the amount of capital
required to be maintained by such Affected Person or Affected Person’s holding company, if any, (y) reducing the rate of return on such Affected Person’s capital or on the capital of such Affected Person’s holding company, if
any, or (z) causing an internal capital or liquidity charge or other imputed cost to be assessed upon such Affected Person or Affected Person’s holding company, if any, in each case, as a consequence of (A) this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document, (B) the commitments of such Affected Person hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, (C) the Loans made by such Affected Person or (D) any Principal (or portion thereof), to a level below that which
such Affected Person or such Affected Person’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Affected Person’s policies and the policies of such Affected Person’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, upon request of such Affected Person, the Borrower will pay to such Affected Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person or such Affected
Person’s holding company for any such increase, reduction or charge; provided, that, no Affected Person shall make a demand for payment hereunder unless such Affected Person is also making or has made a demand for reimbursement
under one or more other trade receivables securitization facilities. 
 (c)    Adoption of Changes in Law. The
Borrower acknowledges that any Affected Person may institute measures in anticipation of a Change in Law (including, without limitation, the imposition of internal charges on such Affected Person’s interests or obligations under any Transaction
Document), and may commence allocating charges to or seeking compensation from the Borrower under this Section 5.01 in connection with such measures, in advance of the effective date of such Change in Law, and the Borrower
agrees to pay such charges or compensation to such Affected Person, following demand therefor in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.01, without regard to whether such effective date has occurred. 

  
 48 

 (d)    Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of an
Affected Person specifying the applicable law, regulation or guidance or request causing such increased costs, and setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Person or its holding
company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 5.01 and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall, subject to the
priorities of payment set forth in Section 4.01, pay such Affected Person the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring after the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate. 

(e)    Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Affected Person to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section 5.01 shall not constitute a waiver of such Affected Person’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate an Affected Person pursuant to this
Section 5.01 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Affected Person notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs
or reductions and of such Affected Person’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be
extended to include the period of retroactive thereof). 
 SECTION 5.02.    Funding Losses. 

(a)    The Borrower will pay each Lender all Breakage Fees. 

(b)    A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender, as specified in clause (a) above and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall, subject to the priorities of payment set forth in
Section 4.01, pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring after the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate. 

SECTION 5.03.    Taxes. 

(a)    Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any
Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Credit Party, Affected Person or Borrower
Indemnified Party) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment to a Credit Party, Affected Person or Borrower Indemnified Party, then the applicable Credit Party, Affected Person or Borrower Indemnified Party shall be
entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the
Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Credit Party, Affected
Person or Borrower Indemnified Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

  
 49 

 (b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall
timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Affected Person, within ten
(10) Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Affected Person or
required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Affected Person and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by an Affected Person shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten
(10) calendar days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or any of its Affiliates that are Affected Persons (but only to the extent that the Borrower and its Affiliates have not already
indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting any obligation of the Borrower, the Servicer or their Affiliates to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to the failure of such Lender or any of its respective
Affiliates that are Affected Persons to comply with Section 13.03(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or any of its respective Affiliates
that are Affected Persons, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or any of its respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the
Administrative Agent to such Lender or any of its respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d). 

(e)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental

 50 

 (f)    Status of Affected Persons. 

(i)    Any Affected Person that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with
respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Affected Person, if reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not
such Affected Person is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
documentation set forth in Sections 5.03(f)(ii)(A), 5.03(f)(ii)(B) and 5.03(g)) shall not be required if, in the Affected Person’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Affected
Person to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Affected Person. 

(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(A)    an Affected Person that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
on or prior to the date such Affected Person becomes an Affected Person under this Agreement and from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Affected Person is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B)    any Affected Person that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested of the Affected Person) on or prior to the date such Affected Person becomes an Affected Person under this Agreement and from time to time upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1)    in the case of such an Affected Person claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the
United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and
(y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 

  
 51 

 
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2)    executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

 (3)    in the case of such an Affected Person claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio
interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Affected Person is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the
Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed
originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable,; or 

(4)    to the extent such Affected Person is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9,
and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if such Affected Person is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Affected Person are claiming the portfolio interest
exemption, such Affected Person may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and 

(C)    any Affected Person that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so,
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), on or prior to the date such Affected Person becomes an Affected Person under this Agreement and from time to time upon the
reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with
such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(D)    If the Administrative Agent is a U.S. Person, it shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the
date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement two duly completed copies of 

  
 52 

 
Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. If the Administrative Agent is not a U.S. Person, it shall provide to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which it
becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower): (A) two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI with
respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, and (B) two executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the
Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United
States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S.
Person with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations). 

(g)    Documentation Required by FATCA. If a payment made to an Affected Person under any Transaction Document
would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Affected Person were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as
applicable), such Affected Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such
documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Affected Person has complied with such Affected Person’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such
payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that
it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.03), it shall pay
to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 5.03 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to
such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required
to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the Tax subject to 

  
 53 

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

(i)    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.03 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Credit Party or any other Affected Person, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the
Borrower Obligations and the Servicer’s obligations hereunder. 
 (j)    Updates. Each Affected Person
agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 5.03 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 
 SECTION 5.04.    Security
Interest. 
 (a)    As security for the performance by the Borrower of all the terms, covenants and agreements on the
part of the Borrower to be performed under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including the punctual payment when due of the Aggregate Principal and all Interest in respect of the Loans and all other Borrower Obligations, the Borrower
hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid, continuing and perfected first priority security interest in, all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under
all of the following, whether now or hereafter owned, existing or arising (collectively, the “Collateral”): (i) all Pool Receivables, (ii) all Related Security with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iii) all Collections
with respect to such Pool Receivables, (iv) the Lock-Boxes and Collection Accounts and all amounts on deposit therein, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time evidencing such Lock-Boxes and Collection Accounts and
amounts on deposit therein, (v) all rights (but none of the obligations) of the Borrower under the Purchase and Sale Agreement and any Credit Insurance Policy, (vi) all other personal and fixture property or assets of the Borrower of every
kind and nature including, without limitation, all goods (including inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments (including promissory notes), documents, accounts, chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), deposit accounts,
securities accounts, securities entitlements, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, securities and all other investment property, supporting obligations, money, any other contract rights or rights to the payment of money, insurance claims
and proceeds, and all general intangibles (including all payment intangibles) (each as defined in the UCC) and (vii) all proceeds of, and all amounts received or receivable under any or all of, the foregoing. 

(b)    The Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have, with respect to all the Collateral,
and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC. The Borrower hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby as “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope
than the collateral described in this Agreement. 

  
 54 

 (c)    Immediately upon the occurrence of the Final Payout Date, the
Collateral shall be automatically released from the lien created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the other Credit Parties
hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Borrower; provided, however, that promptly following written request
therefor by the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent following any such termination, and at the expense of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall execute (if applicable) and deliver to the Borrower
UCC-3 termination statements and such other documents as the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

 84 

 (f)    Compensation. Any employee, consultant or agent of the
Borrower will be compensated from the Borrower’s funds for services provided to the Borrower, and to the extent that Borrower shares the same officers or other employees as the Servicer (or any other Affiliate thereof), the salaries and
expenses relating to providing benefits to such officers and other employees shall, to the extent practical, be fairly allocated among such entities, and each such entity shall bear its fair share of the salary and benefit costs associated with such
common officers and employees, and otherwise such salaries and benefit costs shall otherwise be allocated on a basis reasonably related to the time allocation of such common officers and employees duties performed on behalf of the Borrower. The
Borrower will not engage any agents other than its attorneys, auditors and other professionals, and a servicer and any other agent contemplated by the Transaction Documents for the Receivables Pool, which servicer will be fully compensated for its
services by payment of the Servicing Fee. 
 (g)    Servicing and Costs. The Borrower will contract with the
Servicer to perform for the Borrower all operations required on a daily basis to service the Receivables Pool. The Borrower will not incur any indirect or overhead expenses for items shared with the Servicer (or any other Affiliate thereof) that are
not reflected in the Servicing Fee. To the extent, if any, that the Borrower (or any Affiliate thereof) shares items of expenses not reflected in the Servicing Fee, such as legal, auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be
allocated to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to the actual use or the value of services rendered.

operating expenses will not be paid by any Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof. 
 (i)    Stationery. The
Borrower will have its own separate stationery. 
 (j)    Books and Records. The Borrower’s books and
records will be maintained separately from those of each other Sylvamo Party and its Affiliates and in a manner such that it will not be difficult or costly to segregate, ascertain or otherwise identify the assets and liabilities of the Borrower.

 (k)    Disclosure of Transactions. All financial statements of any Sylvamo Party (other than the Borrower) or
any Affiliate thereof that are consolidated to include the Borrower will disclose that (i) the Borrower’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of the Receivables and Related Rights from the
Originators and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such Receivables and Related Rights to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the Borrower is a separate legal entity with its own separate
creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets prior to any assets or value in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s equity holders and (iii) the assets of the Borrower
are not available to pay creditors of any other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof. 

  
 85 

 (l)    Segregation of Assets. The Borrower’s assets will be
maintained in a manner that facilitates their identification and segregation from the assets of each other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof. 

(m)    Corporate Formalities. The Borrower will strictly observe limited liability company formalities in all
material respects in its dealings with each other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof, and funds or other assets of the Borrower will not be commingled with those of any other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof except as permitted by this
Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in connection with servicing the Pool Receivables. The Borrower shall not maintain joint bank accounts or other depository accounts to which any other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof (other than
the Servicer solely in its capacity as such) has independent access. Other than with respect to any Eligible Credit Insurance Policy, the Borrower is not named, and has not entered into any agreement to be named, directly or indirectly, as a direct
or contingent beneficiary or loss payee on any insurance policy with respect to any loss relating to the property of any other Sylvamo Party or any Subsidiaries or other Affiliates thereof. The Borrower will pay to the appropriate Affiliate the
marginal increase or, in the absence of such increase, the market amount of its portion of the premium payable with respect to any insurance policy that covers the Borrower and such Affiliate. 

(n)    Arm’s-Length Relationships. The Borrower will maintain arm’s-length relationships with each other Sylvamo Party and any Affiliate thereof. Any Person that renders or otherwise furnishes services to the Borrower will be compensated by the Borrower at market rates
for such services it renders or otherwise furnishes to the Borrower. Neither the Borrower on the one hand, nor any other Sylvamo Party or any Affiliate thereof, on the other hand, will be or will hold itself out to be responsible for the debts of
the other or the decisions or actions respecting the daily business and affairs of the other. Each Sylvamo Party and its Affiliates will immediately correct any known misrepresentation with respect to the foregoing, and they will not operate or
purport to operate as an integrated single economic unit with respect to each other or in their dealing with any other entity. 

(o)    Allocation of Overhead. To the extent that Borrower, on the one hand, and any other Sylvamo Party or any
Affiliate thereof, on the other hand, have offices in the same location, there shall be a fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs between them, and the Borrower shall bear its fair share of such expenses, which may be paid through the
Servicing Fee or otherwise. 
 ARTICLE IX 

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION 

OF RECEIVABLES 
 SECTION
9.01.    Appointment of the Servicer. 
 (a)    The servicing, administering and collection of
the Pool Receivables shall be conducted by the Person so designated from time to time as the Servicer in accordance with this Section 9.01. Until the Administrative Agent gives notice to Sylvamo North America (in
accordance with this Section 9.01) of the designation of a new Servicer, Sylvamo North America 

  
 86 

 
is hereby designated as, and hereby agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent may (with the consent of the Majority Lenders) and shall (at the direction of the Majority Lenders) designate as Servicer any Person (including itself) to succeed Sylvamo North America 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. 

(b)    Upon the designation of a successor Servicer as set forth in clause (a) above, Sylvamo North
America agrees that it will terminate its activities as Servicer hereunder in a manner that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines will facilitate the transition of the performance of such activities to the new Servicer, and Sylvamo North
America shall cooperate with and assist such new Servicer. Such cooperation shall include access to and transfer of records (including all Contracts) related to Pool Receivables and use of commercially reasonable efforts to allow the use, subject to
the terms of such license, by the new Servicer of all licenses (or the obtaining of new licenses), hardware or software necessary or reasonably desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security. 

(c)    Sylvamo North America acknowledges that, in making its decision to execute and deliver this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent and each Lender have relied on Sylvamo North America’s agreement to act as Servicer hereunder. Accordingly, Sylvamo North America agrees that it will not voluntarily resign as Servicer without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders, except upon determination that (i) performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under Applicable Law and (ii) there is no commercially reasonable action which it could take
to make such performance of its duties hereunder permissible under Applicable Law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced as to clause (i) above by an opinion of a nationally recognized external
counsel to the Servicer and as to clause (ii) above by an officer’s certificate of a Financial Officer of the Servicer, each to such effect delivered, and reasonably satisfactory in form and substance, to the Administrative Agent. 

(d)    The Servicer may delegate its duties and obligations hereunder to any
sub-servicer (each a “Sub-Servicer”), including to any Originator; provided, that, in each such delegation: (i) such Sub-Servicer shall agree in writing to perform the delegated duties and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to the terms hereof, (ii) the Servicer shall remain liable for the performance of the duties and
obligations so delegated, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have the right to look solely to the Servicer for performance, (iv) the terms of any agreement with any
Sub-Servicer shall provide that the Administrative Agent may terminate such agreement upon the termination of the Servicer hereunder by giving notice of its desire to terminate such agreement to the Servicer
(and the Servicer shall provide appropriate notice to each such Sub-Servicer) and (v) if such Sub-Servicer is not an Affiliate of the Parent, the Administrative
Agent and the Majority Lenders shall have consented in writing in advance to such delegation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

  
 87 

 SECTION 9.02.    Duties of the Servicer. 

(a)    The Servicer shall take or cause to be taken all such action as may be necessary or reasonably advisable to service,
administer and collect each Pool Receivable from time to time, all in accordance with this Agreement and all Applicable Laws, with reasonable care and diligence, and in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy and consistent with the past
practices of the Originators. The Servicer shall set aside, for the accounts of each Credit Party the amount of Collections it or its Affiliates actually receive to which each such Credit Party, as applicable, is entitled in accordance with
Article IV hereof. The Servicer may, in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy and consistent with past practices of the Originators, take such action, including modifications, waivers or restructurings of Pool Receivables and
related Contracts, as the Servicer may reasonably determine to be appropriate to maximize Collections thereof or reflect adjustments expressly permitted under the Credit and Collection Policy or as expressly required under Applicable Laws or the
applicable Contract; provided, that for purposes of this Agreement: (i) such action shall not, and shall not be deemed to, change the number of days such Pool Receivable has remained unpaid from the date of the original due date related
to such Pool Receivable, (ii) such action shall not alter the status of such Pool Receivable as a Delinquent Receivable or a Defaulted Receivable or limit the rights of any Secured Party under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document
and (iii) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Servicer may take such action only upon the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall deliver to the Servicer and the Servicer shall hold for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent (individually and for the benefit of each Credit Party), in accordance with their respective interests, all records and documents (including computer tapes or disks) with respect to each Pool Receivable.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may direct the Servicer to commence or settle any legal action to enforce collection of any Pool Receivable
that is a Defaulted Receivable or to foreclose upon or repossess any Related Security with respect to any such Defaulted Receivable. 

(b)    The Servicer shall, as soon as practicable following actual receipt of collected funds, turn over to the Borrower
the collections of any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, less, if Sylvamo North America or an Affiliate thereof is not the Servicer, all reasonable and appropriate
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such Servicer of servicing, collecting and administering such collections. The Servicer, if other than Sylvamo North America or an
Affiliate thereof, shall, as soon as practicable upon demand, deliver to the Borrower all records in its possession that evidence or relate to any indebtedness that is not a Pool Receivable, and copies of records in its possession that evidence or
relate to any indebtedness that is a Pool Receivable. 
 (c)    The Servicer’s obligations hereunder shall
terminate on the Final Payout Date. Promptly following the Final Payout Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Borrower all books, records and related materials concerning the Pool Receivables that the Borrower previously provided to the Servicer,
or that have been obtained by the Servicer, in connection with this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.03.    Collection Account
Arrangements. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall have entered into Account Control Agreements with all of the Collection Account Banks and delivered executed counterparts of each to the Administrative Agent. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may 

  
 88 

 
(with the consent of the Majority Lenders) and shall (upon the direction of the Majority Lenders) at any time thereafter give notice to each Collection Account Bank that the Administrative Agent
is exercising its rights under the Account Control Agreements to do any or all of the following: (a) to have the exclusive dominion and control of the Collection Accounts transferred to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured
Parties) and to exercise exclusive dominion and control over the funds deposited therein, (b) to have the proceeds that are sent to the respective Collection Accounts redirected pursuant to the Administrative Agent’s instructions rather
than deposited in the applicable Collection Account and (c) to take any or all other actions permitted under the applicable Account Control Agreement. The Borrower hereby agrees that if the Administrative Agent at any time takes any action set
forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) of the proceeds (including Collections) of all Pool Receivables and the Borrower hereby further agrees to take any other
action that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to transfer such control. Any proceeds of Pool Receivables received by the Borrower or the Servicer thereafter shall be sent immediately to, or as otherwise instructed by, the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent it has exercised control over the Collection Accounts, it shall only apply funds in the Collection
Accounts as directed by the Borrower or the Servicer in accordance with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. 
 SECTION
9.04.    Enforcement Rights. 
 (a)    At any time following the occurrence and continuation
of an Event of Default: 
 (i)    the Administrative Agent (at the Borrower’s expense) may direct
the Obligors that payment of all amounts payable under any Pool Receivable is to be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee; 

(ii)    the Administrative Agent may instruct the Borrower or the Servicer to give notice of the Secured
Parties’ interest in Pool Receivables to each Obligor, which notice shall direct that payments be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee (on behalf of the Secured Parties), and the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may
be, shall give such notice at the expense of the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be; provided, that if the Borrower or the Servicer, as the case may be, fails to so notify each Obligor within two (2) Business Days following
instruction by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent (at the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s, as the case may be, expense) may so notify the Obligors; 

(iii)    the Administrative Agent may request the Servicer to, and upon such request the Servicer shall:
(A) assemble all of the records necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer or license, subject to the terms of such license, to a successor Servicer the
use of all software necessary or desirable to collect the Pool Receivables and the Related Security, and make the same available to the Administrative Agent or its designee (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) at a place reasonably selected by
the Administrative Agent and (B) segregate all cash, checks and other instruments received by it from time to 

  
 89 

 
time constituting Collections in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, promptly upon receipt, remit all such cash, checks and instruments, duly endorsed or with duly
executed instruments of transfer, to the Administrative Agent or its designee; 
 (iv)    the
Administrative Agent may notify the Collection Account Banks that the Borrower and the Servicer will no longer have any access to the Collection Accounts; 

(v)    the Administrative Agent may (or, at the direction of the Majority Lenders shall) replace the Person
then acting as Servicer; and 
 (vi)    the Administrative Agent may collect any amounts due from an
Originator under the Purchase and Sale Agreement or the Performance Guarantor under the Performance Guaranty, in each case, in accordance with the terms of such Transaction Documents. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent upon an Event of Default are in addition to and not
exclusive of the rights and remedies contained herein and under the other Transaction Documents. 
 (b)    The Borrower
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), and irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact with full power
of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of the Borrower, which appointment is coupled with an interest, to take any and all steps in the name of the Borrower and on behalf of the Borrower necessary or desirable, in the
reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, to collect any and all amounts or portions thereof due under any and all Collateral, including endorsing the name of the Borrower on
checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing such Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, none of the powers conferred upon such attorney-in-fact pursuant to the preceding sentence shall subject such attorney-in-fact to any liability if any action taken by
it shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, nor shall they confer any obligations upon such attorney-in-fact in any manner whatsoever. 

(c)    The Servicer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), and irrevocably
appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution and with full authority in the place and stead of the Servicer, which
appointment is coupled with an interest, to take any and all steps in the name of the Servicer and on behalf of the Servicer necessary or desirable, in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, after the occurrence and continuation
of an Event of Default, to collect any and all amounts or portions thereof due under any and all Collateral, including endorsing the name of the Servicer on checks and other instruments representing Collections and enforcing such Collateral.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection, none of the powers conferred upon such attorney-in-fact pursuant to the preceding sentence shall
subject such attorney-in-fact to any liability if any action taken by it shall prove to be inadequate or invalid, nor shall they confer any obligations upon such attorney-in-fact in any manner whatsoever. 

  
 90 

 SECTION 9.05.    Responsibilities of the Borrower. 

(a)    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall: (i) perform all of its obligations, if
any, under the Contracts related to the Pool Receivables to the same extent as if interests in such Pool Receivables had not been transferred hereunder, and the exercise by the Administrative Agent, or any other Credit Party of their respective
rights hereunder shall not relieve the Borrower from such obligations and (ii) pay when due any taxes, including any sales taxes payable in connection with the Pool Receivables and their creation and satisfaction. None of the Credit Parties
shall have any obligation or liability with respect to any Collateral, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform any of the obligations of the Borrower, the Servicer or any Originator thereunder. 

(b)    Sylvamo North America hereby irrevocably agrees that if at any time it shall cease to be the Servicer hereunder, it
shall act (if the then-current Servicer so requests) as the data-processing agent of the Servicer and, in such capacity, Sylvamo North America shall conduct the data-processing functions of the administration of the Receivables and the Collections
thereon in substantially the same way that Sylvamo North America conducted such data-processing functions while it acted as the Servicer. In connection with any such processing functions, the Borrower shall pay to Sylvamo North America its
reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses from the Borrower’s own funds (subject to the priority of payments set forth in Section 4.01).
In addition, the then-current Servicer shall compensate Sylvamo North America for such services from the Servicing Fee at a rate to be agreed upon in good faith between Sylvamo North America and the then-Servicer based on the then market rate for
such data-processing agent services being performed by reputable companies. 
 SECTION 9.06.    Servicing Fee.

 (a)    Subject to clause (b) below, the Borrower shall pay the Servicer a fee (the
“Servicing Fee”) for each Accrual Period equal to the sum for each day during such Accrual Period of an amount equal to the product of (i) 1.00% per annum (the “Servicing Fee Rate”), multiplied by
(ii) the aggregate Outstanding Balance of the Pool Receivables as of the close of business on such day, multiplied by (iii) 1/360. Accrued Servicing Fees shall be payable from Collections to the extent of available funds in accordance
with Section 4.01. 
 (b)    If the Servicer ceases to be Sylvamo North America or an
Affiliate thereof, the Servicing Fee shall be the greater of: (i) the amount calculated pursuant to clause (a) above and (ii) an alternative amount specified by the successor Servicer not to exceed 110% of the
aggregate reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such successor Servicer in connection with the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder.

 ARTICLE XI 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

SECTION 11.01.    Appointment and Authority. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably appoints PNC Bank, National
Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the
Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article XI are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent. The Credit Parties
and the Sylvamo Parties shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Transaction Documents (or any other similar term)
with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended
to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 
 SECTION 11.02.    Rights as
a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term

  
 95 

 
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in
its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Sylvamo
Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

SECTION 11.03.    Exculpatory Provisions. 

(a)    The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly specified herein and in the
other Transaction Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(i)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Unmatured
Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (ii)    shall not have any duty
to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in
writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any
action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Transaction Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation
of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and 

(iii)    shall not, except as expressly specified herein and in the other Transaction Documents, have any
duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Sylvamo Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity. 
 (b)    The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by
it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances
as provided in Articles X or XIV), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be
deemed not to have knowledge of any Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by any Sylvamo Party or a
Lender. 

  
 96 

 (c)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions specified herein or therein or the occurrence of any Unmatured Event of Default
or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition precedent to a
Credit Extension, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

(d)    The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to take action under any
Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders and assurance of its indemnification by the Lenders, as it deems appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in accordance with a request or at the direction of the Majority Lenders, as the case may be, and such request or direction and any action taken or failure
to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Credit Parties. The Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent agree that unless any action to be taken by the Administrative Agent under a Transaction Document (i) specifically requires the
advice or concurrence of all Lenders or (ii) may be taken by the Administrative Agent alone or without any advice or concurrence of any Lender, then the Administrative Agent may take action based upon the advice or concurrence of the Majority
Lenders. 
 SECTION 11.04.    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution)
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the
proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Credit Extension, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Credit Party, the
Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Credit Party unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Credit Party prior to the making of such Credit Extension. The
Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any
such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 SECTION 11.05.    Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may
perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Transaction Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this
Article XI shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the

  
 97 

 
facilities as well as activities of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
selection of such sub-agents. 
 SECTION 11.06.    Resignation of
Administrative Agent. 
 (a)    The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Credit
Parties and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower (so long as no Unmatured Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to
appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within thirty (30) calendar days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then
the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Credit Parties, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications specified above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such
resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 
 (b)    With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by
the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under any of the Transaction Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is
appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by
or to each Credit Party directly, until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent),
and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as
those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, the provisions of
this Article XI and Article XIII shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 11.07.    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Credit Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and

  
 98 

 
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Credit Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking
action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

SECTION 11.08.    No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners,
arrangers or structuring agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a
Credit Party hereunder. 
 SECTION 11.09.    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the
pendency of any proceeding under any Insolvency Proceeding, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Credit Extension shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of
whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any
Credit Extension and all other Borrower Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent allowed in such
judicial proceeding; and 
 (b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Credit Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Credit Party, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 11.10.    No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each
Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that neither such Credit Party, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Credit Party’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or
assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or
replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law or any Anti-Corruption Law, 

  
 99 

 
including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Sylvamo Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Transaction Documents or the
transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (i) any identity verification procedures, (ii) any recordkeeping, (iii) comparisons with government lists, (iv) customer notices or (v) other procedures required under the CIP
Regulations or such other Applicable Laws. 
 SECTION 11.11.    ERISA Matters. 

(a)    Each Credit Party (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a party hereto, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 

(i)    such Credit Party is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of ERISA or otherwise) of
one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Credit Party’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments or this Agreement, 

(ii)    the transaction exemption set forth in one or more Prohibited Transaction Exemptions
(“PTEs”), such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a
class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable and the conditions of such exemption are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the
Commitments and this Agreement, 
 (iii)    (A) such Credit Party is an investment fund managed by a
“Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into,
participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, or 

(iv)    such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the
Administrative Agent, such Credit Party and Borrower (provided Borrower shall not unreasonably withhold its consent). 

(b)    In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding
Section 11.11(a) is true with respect to a Credit Party or such Credit Party has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the
immediately preceding 

  
 100 

 
Section 11.11(a), such Credit Party further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date
such Person became a party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Sylvamo Party, that none of the
Administrative Agent or any of its respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and
this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any other documents related to hereto or thereto). 

SECTION 11.12.    Erroneous Payments. 

(a)    If the Administrative Agent (x) delivers written notice (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest
error) to a Credit Party or other Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Credit Party or other Secured Party (any Credit Party, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the
Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in the notice from the Administrative Agent) received by such Payment
Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Credit Party, other Secured
Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous
Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment
Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Credit Party or other Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to)
promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand (accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation
of such Erroneous Payment) was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment
Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Overnight Bank Funding Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(b)    Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Credit Party or other Secured Party, or any Person
who has received funds on behalf of a Credit Party or other Secured Party, hereby further acknowledges and agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest,
fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment
sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied 

  
 101 

 
by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Credit Party or other Secured Party, or other such recipient,
otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case: 

(i)    (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and
mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with
respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and 
 (ii)    such Credit Party or other Secured Party
shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of such error or mistake) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of
such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.12(b). 

(c)    Each Credit Party or other Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any
and all amounts at any time owing to such Credit Party or other Secured Party under any Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Credit Party or other Secured Party from any source, against any
amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. 

(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any
reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Credit Party that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received
such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Credit Party at any time, (i) such
Credit Party shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent
may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to
be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Credit
Party shall deliver any notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such
deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such
Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the

  
 102 

 
Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell
any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Credit Party shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of
such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Credit Party (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment
Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Credit Party or other Secured Party shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the
Administrative Agent on or with respect to such Loans acquired from such Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Credit
Party and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant
to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Credit
Party or other Secured Party under the Transaction Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”); provided that the Sylvamo Parties’ Borrower Obligations
under the Transaction Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Borrower Obligations in respect of Loans that have been assigned to the Administrative Agent under an Erroneous Payment
Deficiency Assignment. 
 (e)    The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay,
discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by any Sylvamo Party or any other Person on their behalf (including any Borrower Obligations), except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount
of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from any Sylvamo Party for the purpose of making a payment to satisfy such obligations and is not otherwise repaid or returned to a Sylvamo Party by the
Administrative Agent, any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates, whether pursuant to a legal proceeding or otherwise; provided that this Section 11.12 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date of), or
have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date of), the Borrower Obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Borrower Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been
made by the Administrative Agent. 
 (f)    To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Payment Recipient shall assert
any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by
the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. 

(g)    Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 11.12 shall
survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Borrower Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document. 

  
 103 

 SECTION 11.13.    Collateral Matters. Each of the Secured Parties
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Transaction Document (a) upon the Termination Date, or
(b) subject to Section 13.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or
warranty regarding the existence, value or collectibility of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Sylvamo Party in connection therewith, nor shall
the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

SECTION 11.14.    Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent

costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any
action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

SECTION 11.15.    Structuring Agent. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Structuring

or any portion of the Collateral, in each case free and clear of any Adverse Claim; 
 (v)    the failure
to have filed, or any delay in filing, financing statements, financing statement amendments, continuation statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of any applicable jurisdiction or other Applicable Laws with respect to any

(vi)    any dispute, claim or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy) of an Obligor to the payment of
any Pool Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Pool Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other
claim resulting from or relating to collection activities with respect to such Pool Receivable; 

  
 105

its duties or obligations in accordance with the provisions hereof and of each other Transaction Document related to Pool Receivables or to timely and fully comply with the Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each Pool Receivable; 

(viii)    any products liability, environmental or other claim arising out of or in connection with any
Pool Receivable or other merchandise, goods or services which are the subject of or related to any Pool Receivable; 

(ix)    the misdirection of Collections or the commingling of Collections of Pool Receivables at any time
with other funds; 
 (x)    any investigation, litigation or proceeding (actual or threatened) related to
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the use of proceeds of any Credit Extensions or in respect of any Pool Receivable or other Collateral or any related Contract; 

(xi)    any failure of the Borrower to comply with its covenants, obligations and agreements contained in
this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; 
 (xii)    any offset, setoff, adjustment, or other non-cash reduction of any Pool Receivable (including Deemed Collections) not arising from the bankruptcy or insolvency, lack of creditworthiness or other financial default or inability to pay of the related Obligor;

 (xiii)    any claim brought by any Person other than a Borrower Indemnified Party arising from any
activity by the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower in servicing, administering or collecting any Pool Receivable; 

(xiv)    the failure by the Borrower to pay when due any Taxes, including, without limitation, sales,
excise or personal property taxes; 
 (xv)    any failure of a Collection Account Bank to comply with the
terms of the applicable Account Control Agreement, the termination by a Collection Account Bank of any Account Control Agreement or any amounts (including in respect of an indemnity) payable by the Administrative Agent to a Collection Account Bank
under any Account Control Agreement; 
 (xvi)    any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than
discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Pool Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Pool Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms), or any other claim resulting from the sale of goods or the rendering of services related to such Pool Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish any such goods or services or
other similar claim or defense not arising from the financial inability of any Obligor to pay undisputed indebtedness; 

  
 106

Collection Account or the debiting against any Collection Account of amounts as a result of any settlement item that originated in any Linked Account or any other account other than a Collection Account; 

(xx)    the use of proceeds of any Credit Extension; or 

(xxi)    any reduction in Principal as a result of the distribution of Collections if all or a portion of
such distributions shall thereafter be rescinded or otherwise must be returned for any reason. 
 (b)    Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, solely for purposes of the Borrower’s indemnification obligations in clauses (ii), (iii), (vii) and (xi) of this Section 12.01(a), any
representation, warranty or covenant qualified by the occurrence or non-occurrence of a material adverse effect or similar concepts of materiality shall be deemed to be not so qualified. 

(c)    If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Borrower Indemnified Party or insufficient to
hold it harmless, then the Borrower shall contribute to such Borrower Indemnified Party the amount paid or payable by such Borrower Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative economic interests of the Borrower and its Affiliates on the one hand and such Borrower Indemnified Party on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Borrower and its
Affiliates and such Borrower Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Borrower under this
Section 12.01 shall be in addition to any liability which the Borrower may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each Borrower Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Borrower and the Borrower Indemnified Parties. 

(d)    Any indemnification or contribution under this Section 12.01 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 12.02.    Indemnification by the Servicer. 

(a)    The Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Structuring
Agent, the Credit Parties, the Affected Persons and their respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees (each, a “Servicer Indemnified Party”), from and against any loss, liability, expense, damage or injury suffered
or sustained by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of activities of the Servicer 

  
 107 

 
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including any judgment, award, settlement, Attorney Costs and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any
actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as, “Servicer Indemnified Amounts”); excluding (i) Servicer Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Servicer Indemnified Amounts resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Servicer Indemnified Party seeking
indemnification, (ii) Taxes (other than any Taxes (x) included in clause (vii) below and (y) that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim), (iii) Servicer
Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses in respect of Pool Receivables that are uncollectible solely on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy, lack of creditworthiness or other financial inability to pay of the related Obligor, or
that would otherwise constitute credit recourse and (iv) Servicer Indemnified Amounts arising from a claim by one Servicer Indemnified Party against another Servicer Indemnified Party (other than actions against the Administrative Agent in its
capacity as Administrative Agent or similar capacity or as a result of the actions or inaction of the Servicer). Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Servicer shall pay, without duplication, on demand, to each Servicer Indemnified
Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Servicer Indemnified Party from and against any and all Servicer Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any of the following (but excluding Servicer Indemnified Amounts described in

warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Servicer (or any of its respective officers) under or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Transaction Documents, any Pool Report or any other information or report delivered by or on
behalf of the Servicer pursuant hereto which shall have been untrue or incorrect when made or deemed made; 

(ii)    the failure by the Servicer to comply with any Applicable Law with respect to any Pool Receivable
or the related Contract; or the failure of any Pool Receivable or the related Contract to conform to any such Applicable Law; 

(iii)    the misdirection of Collections or the commingling of Collections of Pool Receivables at any time
with other funds; 
 (iv)    any failure of a Collection Account Bank to comply with the terms of the
applicable Account Control Agreement, the termination by a Collection Account Bank of any Account Control Agreement or any amounts (including in respect of an indemnity) payable by the Administrative Agent to a Collection Account Bank under any
Account Control Agreement; 
 (v)    the failure or delay to provide any Obligor with an invoice or other
evidence of indebtedness related to a Pool Receivable; 
 (vi)    the maintenance of any Linked Account
with respect to any Collection Account or the debiting against any Collection Account of amounts as a result of any settlement item that originated in any Linked Account or any other account other than a Collection Account; or 

  
 108 

 (vii)    any failure of the Servicer to comply with its
covenants, obligations and agreements contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. 
 (b)    If for
any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Servicer Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Servicer shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Servicer Indemnified Party as a result of such
loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Servicer and its Affiliates on the one hand and such Servicer Indemnified Party on the other hand in the matters contemplated by
this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Servicer and its Affiliates and such Servicer Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity
and contribution obligations of the Servicer under this Section 12.02 shall be in addition to any liability which the Servicer may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to Servicer Indemnified
Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Servicer and the Servicer Indemnified Parties. 

(c)    Any indemnification or contribution under this Section 12.02 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.

MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION
13.01.    Amendments, Etc. 
 (a)    No failure on the part of any Credit Party to exercise,
and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof shall be effective unless in a writing signed by the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders (and, in the case of any
amendment, also signed by the Borrower), and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, subject to the restrictions set forth in the
immediately following sentence, no consent or signature of the Majority Lenders shall be necessary to the extent such writing is intended to, in the Administrative Agent’s determination (in its sole discretion): (i) cure any ambiguity in this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) correct any scrivener’s error in any provision in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (iii) add or supplement any credit enhancement for the benefit of the Lenders,
(iv) add to the covenants, restrictions or obligations of the Seller or (v) add, change or eliminate any other provision of this Agreement in any manner that shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Lenders.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Servicer, affect the rights or duties of the Servicer under this Agreement and (B) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless
in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and each Lender:

indirectly) the definitions of, Borrowing Base Deficit, Defaulted Receivable, Delinquent Receivable, Eligible Credit Insurance Policy, 

  
 109

(vii)    change the order of priority in which Collections are applied pursuant to
Section 4.01. 
 (b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no amendment, waiver or
consent shall increase any Lender’s Commitment hereunder without the consent of such Lender and (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall reduce any Fees payable by the Borrower to any Lender or delay the dates on which any such Fees are
payable, in either case, without the consent of such Lender and (iii) no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment,
waiver or other modification referred to in clauses (i) through (vii) above and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be directly affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification. 

SECTION 13.02.    Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated
herein, be in writing (which shall include facsimile and email communication) and faxed, emailed or delivered, to each party hereto, at its address or email address set forth under its name on Schedule III hereto or at such other address or
email address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Notices and communications by facsimile shall be effective when sent (and shall be followed by hard copy sent by regular mail) and by email shall be
effective when sent confirmed by electronic or other means (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return electronic mail or other acknowledgement), and notices and communications sent by other means shall be
effective when received. 
 SECTION 13.03.    Assignability; Addition of Lenders. 

(a)    Assignment by Lenders. Each Lender may assign to any Eligible Assignee or to any other Lender all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and any Loan or interests therein owned by it); provided, however that 

  
 110 

 (i)    except for an assignment by a Lender to either an
Affiliate of such Lender or any other Lender, each such assignment shall require the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that such consent
shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing); 
 (ii)    each such
assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement; 

(iii)    the amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance Agreement with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (x) five million dollars ($5,000,000) and (y) all of the assigning Lender’s Commitment; and 

(iv)    the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its
acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. 
 Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording
from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement, and to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to it
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder (including the requirements under Section 5.03) and (y) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights
and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, relinquish such rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement covering all
or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(b)    Register. The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower,
maintain at its address referred to on Schedule III of this Agreement (or such other address of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may notify the other parties hereto) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement
delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, the Commitment of each Lender and the aggregate outstanding Principal (and stated interest) of the Loans of each Lender from time to time
(the “Register”). No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Servicer, the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the other Credit Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as a Lender under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Servicer and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties intend and shall treat Loans as being at all times
maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. 

  
 111 

 (c)    Procedure. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement executed and delivered by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee or assignee Lender, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been duly completed, (i) accept such Assignment and
Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the Servicer. Each assignee shall be subject to the obligations of Section 5.03, including
the requirement to provide tax forms. 
 (d)    Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or
more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the interests in the Loans owned
by it); provided, however, that 
 (i)    such Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, and 

(ii)    such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties to this Agreement for the
performance of such obligations. 
 The Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Servicer shall have the right to continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the proviso to Section 13.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.01 and
5.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.03(f) shall
be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 13.03; provided that such
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.01 or 5.03, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent
such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. 

(e)    Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans
or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant
or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or
other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive

  
 112 

 
absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(f)    Assignments by Administrative Agent. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Administrative
Agent herein shall be assignable by the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns; provided that in the case of an assignment to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, such assignment shall require the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 

(g)    Assignments by the Borrower or the Servicer. Neither the Borrower nor, except as provided in
Section 9.01, the Servicer may assign any of its respective rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (such consent to be provided
or withheld in the sole discretion of such Person). 
 (h)    Addition of Lenders. The Borrower may, with written
consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, add additional Persons as Lenders or cause an existing Lender to increase its Commitment; provided, however, that the Commitment of any existing Lender may only be increased with the
prior written consent of such Lender. Each new Lender shall become a party hereto, by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, an assumption agreement (each, an “Assumption Agreement”) in the form of
Exhibit D hereto. 
 (i)    Pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
forth herein, (i) any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its interest in, to and under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payment of
Principal and Interest) and any other Transaction Document to secure its obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, the Servicer, any Affiliate thereof or any Credit Party; provided,
however, that that no such pledge shall relieve such assignor of its obligations under this Agreement. 

(j)    Pledge to a Security Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) any Lender
or any of their respective Affiliates may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its interest in, to and under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payment of Principal and Interest) and any
other Transaction Document to a security trustee in connection with the funding by such Person of Loans, without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, the Servicer, any Affiliate thereof or any Credit Party; provided, however, that
that no such pledge shall relieve such assignor of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 13.04.    Costs
and Expenses. In addition to the rights of indemnification granted under Section 12.01 hereof, the Borrower agrees to pay (a) with respect to any of the following amounts invoiced at least two (2) Business
Days prior to the Closing Date, on the 

  
 113 

 
Closing Date, and (b) otherwise, within ten (10) Business Days following demand thereof, all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents (together with all amendments, restatements, supplements, consents and waivers, if any, from time to time hereto and thereto), including, without limitation, (i) the reasonable Attorney Costs for the Administrative Agent and the other
Credit Parties with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) reasonable and documented
accountants’, auditors’ and consultants’ fees and expenses for the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties and any of their respective Affiliates incurred in connection with the administration and maintenance of this
Agreement or advising the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement or as to any actual or reasonably claimed breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. In addition, the
Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable Attorney Costs), of the Administrative Agent and the other Credit
Parties, incurred in connection with the enforcement of any of their respective rights or remedies under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. 

SECTION 13.05.    No Proceedings; Limitation on Payments. Each of the Servicer, each Lender and each assignee of a
Loan or any interest therein, hereby covenants and agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Borrower any Insolvency Proceeding until one year and one day after the Final Payout Date;
provided, that the Administrative Agent may take any such action in its sole discretion following the occurrence of an Event of Default. The provisions of this Section 13.05 shall survive any termination of this
Agreement. 
 SECTION 13.06.    Confidentiality. 

(a)    Each of the Borrower and the Servicer covenants and agrees to hold in confidence, and not disclose to any Person,
the terms of this Agreement or any Fee Letter (including any fees payable in connection with this Agreement, such Fee Letter or any other Transaction Document or the identity of the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party), except as the
Administrative Agent and each Lender may have consented to in writing prior to any proposed disclosure; provided, however, that it may disclose such information (i) to its Advisors and Representatives, (ii) to the extent such
information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through the Borrower, the Servicer or their Advisors and Representatives or (iii) to the extent it should be (A) required by Applicable Law
(including applicable Securities Exchange Commission and other securities laws requirements), or in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding or (B) requested by any Governmental Authority to disclose such information; provided,
that, in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower and the Servicer will use reasonable efforts to maintain confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by Applicable Law) notify the Administrative Agent and the affected
Credit Party of its intention to make any such disclosure prior to making such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower, the Servicer and their Affiliates may disclose on a confidential basis the material terms of the Transaction
Documents (other than the terms of the Fee Letter (including any fees payable in connection with this Agreement, the Fee Letter or any other Transaction Document), except as required by securities laws requirements) to their current

  
 114 

 
and potential lenders, bondholders, investors, equityholders, members, partners (limited and general), purchasers, auditors, banks, outside counsel, insurers and/or the respective advisors of the
foregoing. The disclosures authorized in the foregoing sentence do not require the Borrower, the Servicer or their Affiliates to obtain a written agreement regarding confidentiality before making such disclosures. Each of the Borrower and the
Servicer agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section 13.06 by its Representatives and Advisors and agrees that its Representatives and Advisors will be advised by it of the confidential nature of such
information and shall agree to comply with this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that each of the Borrower, the Servicer and their respective Affiliates may publish a press release or otherwise publicly announce the
existence and principal amount of the Commitments under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that the Administrative Agent shall be provided a reasonable opportunity to review such press release or other public

proceeding or (B) requested by any Governmental Authority to disclose such information; provided, that, in the case of clause (v) above, the Administrative Agent and each Lender will use reasonable efforts to maintain
confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by Applicable Law) notify the Borrower and the Servicer of its making any such disclosure as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender,

for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such Borrower Obligations held by the other Credit Parties so that after such purchase each Credit Party will hold its ratable proportion of such Borrower Obligations; provided that if all or
any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Credit Party, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 

SECTION 13.13.    Limitation of Liability. 

(a)    No claim may be made by the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof or any other Person against any Credit Party or their

Affiliate thereof or any other Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby, except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof result from the breach of contract, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Credit Party in performing

director, manager, officer, employee or incorporator of any such Person or any of their respective successors or assigns. 
 SECTION

local and foreign tax law as debt (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). The Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties agree to file no tax return, or take any action, inconsistent with the Intended Tax
Treatment unless required by law. Each assignee and each Participant acquiring an interest in a Credit Extension, by its acceptance of such assignment or participation, agrees to comply with the immediately preceding sentence.

notifies the Borrower and the Servicer that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “PATRIOT Act”), the
Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, the Originators, the Servicer and the Performance Guarantor, which information includes the name, address, tax
identification number and other information regarding the Borrower, the Originators, the Servicer and the Performance Guarantor that will allow the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties to identify the Borrower, the Originators, the
Servicer and the Performance Guarantor in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of 

  
 118 

 
the PATRIOT Act. Each of the Borrower and the Servicer agrees to provide the Administrative Agent and each other Credit Parties, from time to time, with all documentation and other information
required by bank regulatory authorities under “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act. 

SECTION 13.16.    Right of Setoff. Each Credit Party is hereby authorized (in addition to any other rights it may
have), at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, to setoff, appropriate and apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly waived) any deposits (other than payroll, trust and fiduciary
accounts) and any other indebtedness held or owing by such Credit Party (including by any branches or agencies of such Credit Party) to, or for the account of, the Borrower or the Servicer against amounts owing by the Borrower or the Servicer
hereunder (even if contingent or unmatured); provided that such Credit Party shall notify the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, promptly following such setoff. 

SECTION 13.17.    Severability. Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not

or any provision hereof or thereof or to have provided the same. Accordingly, in the event of any inconsistency or ambiguity of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, such inconsistency or ambiguity shall not be
interpreted against any party because of such party’s involvement in the drafting thereof.

 EXHIBIT 10.3 

PERFORMANCE GUARANTY 

This PERFORMANCE GUARANTY (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Performance
Guaranty”), dated as of September 30, 2022, is made by SYLVAMO CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Sylvamo”), as performance guarantor (the “Performance Guarantor”), in favor of PNC BANK, NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION (“PNC”), as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of the Secured Parties (and their assigns) under the Receivables Financing Agreement (as defined below). 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS: 

(1)    Each Person from to time to time party to the below described Purchase and Sale Agreement as an originator (herein
collectively called the “Originators” and individually called an “Originator”), Sylvamo Receivables, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sylvamo Receivables”), as the buyer thereunder (the
“Buyer”), and Sylvamo North America, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as servicer thereunder (the “Servicer”) have entered into that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2022
(as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), pursuant to which the Originators have and will, from time to time, sell Receivables and related rights and security to
the Buyer. 
 (2)    Sylvamo Receivables, as borrower (the “Borrower”), the persons from time to time
party thereto as Lenders, the Administrative Agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as the Structuring Agent, and the Servicer have entered into that certain Receivables Financing Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2022 (as amended, restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Financing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Borrower requests that the Lenders make Loans from time to time to the Borrower, on terms, and subject to the
conditions set forth therein, secured by, among other things, the Receivables. Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Receivables Financing Agreement. 

(3)    The Performance Guarantor is the direct or indirect owner of 100% of the outstanding voting stock or membership
interests of each Originator, the Servicer, each Sub-Servicer and the Borrower. 
 NOW, THEREFORE,
for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Performance Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 

SECTION 1. Unconditional Undertaking; Enforcement. The Performance Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees and assures, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, the due and punctual performance and observance by each Originator and Sub-Servicer (or any of their respective
successors and assigns) of the terms, covenants, conditions, agreements, undertakings and obligations on the part of each such Originator or Sub-Servicer to be performed or observed by each such Originator or Sub-Servicer under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, any agreement or obligation of any such Originator or Sub-Servicer
to pay any indemnity or any agreement or obligation of any such Originator or Sub-Servicer to make any 

 
payment in respect of any applicable dilution adjustment or repurchase obligation under any such Transaction Document (all such terms, covenants, conditions, agreements, undertakings and
obligations on the part of each Originator or Sub-Servicer to be paid, performed or observed being collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”), in each case, on the terms and subject to
the conditions and limitations set forth in the applicable Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the foregoing, the Guaranteed Obligations shall not include the obligation of any Obligor to pay or perform its
obligations under a Contract. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Performance Guarantor agrees that if any Originator or Sub-Servicer shall fail in any manner whatsoever to perform or observe
any of the Guaranteed Obligations when the same shall be required to be performed or observed under any applicable Transaction Document (such Guaranteed Obligations, the “Performance Guarantor Obligations”), then the Performance
Guarantor will itself duly and punctually perform or observe or cause to be performed or observed the Guaranteed Obligations. It shall not be a condition to the accrual of the obligation of the Performance Guarantor hereunder to perform or to
observe any Guaranteed Obligation that the Administrative Agent, or any other Secured Party, shall have first made any request of or demand upon or given any notice to the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or Sub-Servicer or any of their respective successors and assigns or have initiated any action or proceeding against the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or
Sub-Servicer or any of their respective successors and assigns in respect thereof. The Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties and their assigns) may proceed to enforce the obligations of the
Performance Guarantor under this Performance Guaranty without first pursuing or exhausting any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may have against any applicable Originator or
Sub-Servicer, any other Person, the Receivables or any other property. The Performance Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the performance of any Performance Guarantor Obligation by the Performance Guarantor is subject to the same rights, privileges and defenses regarding performance that have been granted to the applicable Originator or
Sub-Servicer under the applicable Transaction Document. It is expressly acknowledged that this Performance Guaranty is a guarantee of performance only and is not a guarantee of the payment of any Pool
Receivables and there shall be no recourse to the Performance Guarantor for any non-payment or delay in payment of any Pool Receivables solely by reason of bankruptcy, insolvency or lack of credit worthiness
or other financial inability to pay of the related Obligor or the uncollectibility of any such Pool Receivables or for any Guaranteed Obligations the payment of which could otherwise constitute recourse to the Performance Guarantor or any other
Sylvamo Party for uncollectible Pool Receivables. 
 SECTION 2. Validity of Obligations. The Performance Guarantor agrees that its
obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the validity, enforceability, avoidance, subordination, discharge, or disaffirmance by any Person (including a trustee in bankruptcy) of the
Guaranteed Obligations, (b) the absence of any attempt by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to collect any Receivables, or to obtain performance or observance of the Guaranteed Obligations from any applicable Originator or Sub-Servicer or any other Person, (c) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Administrative Agent with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the
Guaranteed Obligations, (d) any change of the time, manner or place of performance of, or in any other term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any amendment to or modification of any of the Transaction
Documents, (e) any law, 

  
 2 

 
regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect thereto,
(f) the failure by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to take any steps to perfect and maintain perfected its interest in any Receivable or other property or in any security or collateral related to the Guaranteed Obligations,
(g) any failure to obtain any authorization or approval from or other action by or to notify or file with, any Governmental Authority or regulatory body required in connection with the performance of the obligations hereunder by the Performance
Guarantor or (h) any impossibility or impracticability of performance, illegality, force majeure, any act of government, or other circumstances which might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of any Originator or Sub-Servicer or the Performance Guarantor, or any other circumstance, event or happening whatsoever whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar to or dissimilar to anything referred to above, which might
constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor. The Performance Guarantor waives all counterclaims and all presentments, demands of performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and
notices of acceptance of this Performance Guaranty. The Performance Guarantor’s obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall not be limited if the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party is precluded for any reason (including,
without limitation, the application of the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code) from enforcing or exercising any right or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and the Performance Guarantor shall perform or
observe, upon demand, the Guaranteed Obligations that would otherwise have been due and performable or observable by any Originator or Sub-Servicer had such right and remedies been permitted to be exercised.

 SECTION 3. Waiver. The Performance Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of default by any
Originator or Sub-Servicer, notice of the incurrence of any Guaranteed Obligation and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Performance Guaranty, and any other document
related thereto or to any of the Transaction Documents and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party exhaust any right or take any action against any Originator or Sub-Servicer,
any other Person or any property. The Performance Guarantor warrants to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) that it has adequate means to obtain from each Originator and
Sub-Servicer on a continuing basis, all information concerning the financial condition of each Originator and Sub-Servicer, and that it is not relying on the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to provide such information either now or in the future. 
 SECTION 4. Subrogation.
The Performance Guarantor hereby waives, until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been performed and observed (including paid) in full and there exists no commitment which could give rise to any Guaranteed Obligations, all rights of subrogation
(whether contractual or otherwise) to the claims, if any, of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against the Originators and Sub-Servicers and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of
reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Originator or Sub-Servicer which may otherwise have arisen in connection with this Performance Guaranty. 

  
 3

 (e)    No Conflict or Violation. The execution, delivery and performance of,
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by, this Performance Guaranty , and the fulfillment of the terms hereof, will not (i) conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute (with or without
notice or lapse of time or both) a default under its organizational documents or any indenture, sale agreement, credit agreement (including the Credit Agreement), loan agreement, security agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement or
instrument to which the Performance Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its properties is bound, (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim (other than a Permitted Lien) upon any of its properties pursuant to the

investigation pending or, to the Performance Guarantor’s knowledge, threatened in writing, against the Performance Guarantor before any Governmental Authority and (ii) the Performance Guarantor is not subject to any order, judgment,
