  (2)	The SPV, as seller (the “Seller”), Triumph, as initial servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), the various Purchasers and Purchaser Agents from time to time party thereto, the LC Bank and the Administrator have entered into that certain Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Seller will, from time to time, sell undivided interests in Receivables and Related Security to the Purchasers.

The Performance Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assures for the benefit of the Administrator and each of the other Beneficiaries the due and punctual performance and observance by each Originator (or any of their respective successors and assigns) of the terms, covenants, conditions, agreements, undertakings and obligations on the part of each such Originator to be performed or observed by each such Person under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including, without limitation, any agreement or obligation of any such Originator to pay any indemnity or 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 to be paid, performed or observed being collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Performance Guarantor agrees that if any Originator 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, 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 Administrator or any other Beneficiary shall have first made any request of or demand upon or given any notice to the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or any of their respective successors and assigns or have initiated any action or proceeding against the Performance Guarantor, any applicable Originator or any of their respective successors and assigns in respect thereof.  The Administrator (on behalf of each of the Beneficiaries) 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 Administrator or any other  Beneficiary may have against any applicable Originator, any other Person, the Receivables or any other property.  The Performance Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be irrevocable.  For the sake of clarity, it is expressly acknowledged that the Guaranteed Obligations do not include any recourse for non-payment or late payment of the Receivables due solely to the bankruptcy, insolvency or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor or for which payment of any Guaranteed Obligations would otherwise constitute recourse to the Performance Guarantor or any Originator for uncollectible Receivables.

  2.Validity of Obligations.  The Performance Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Performance Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (i) the validity, enforceability, avoidance, subordination, discharge, or disaffirmance by any Person (including a trustee in bankruptcy) of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) the absence of any attempt by the Administrator or any Purchaser to collect any Receivables, or the absence of any attempt by the Administrator or any other Beneficiary to obtain performance or observance of the Guaranteed Obligations from any applicable Originator or any other Person, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by the Administrator with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) 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, (v) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or rights of the Administrator or any other Beneficiary with respect thereto, (vi) the failure by the Administrator or any Purchaser 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, (vii) 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 (viii) any impossibility or impracticability of performance, illegality, force majeure, any act of government, or other circumstances which might constitute a default available to, or a discharge of any Originator or the Performance Guarantor, or any other circumstance, event or happening whatsoever whether foreseen or unforeseen and whether similar to or dissimilar to

  3.Waiver.
