(a)In the event Lender disputes the accuracy of the Settlement Amount reported by Servicer, Lender shall promptly notify Servicer, but such notice shall not affect Lender’s 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 13

obligation for timely payment of the Settlement Amount as noticed by Servicer to Lender, unless the Settlement Amount, together with the outstanding principal balances of all outstanding

Loans, will exceed the Commitment Amount. Payment of any Settlement Amount shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of the right to dispute the accuracy of such Settlement Amount, and any such dispute shall be resolved promptly.

(b)In the event it is determined that Lender was correct in disputing the accuracy of the Settlement Amount for a given day, Servicer shall promptly remit to Lender the overpayment amount due Lender with interest thereon computed at the per annum rate equal to the Prime Rate in effect on the date the Settlement Amount was paid.

Section 2.03    Additional Documentation. If, in the reasonable judgment of a Party, in connection with the making of any Loan any additional instrument, document, or certificate is required to further evidence transactions contemplated hereby, including with respect to the origination, funding or ownership of such Loan, the other Party shall execute and deliver any such document.

Section 2.04    Portfolio Data. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Origination Agreement, Servicer may share any portfolio data associated with the Loans that does not contain personal identifying information of a Borrower and does not identify the Lender by name with the Program Merchants and Sponsors, potential and actual financing sources and investors for Servicer’s business, potential and actual Purchasers, and Servicer’s business partners and professional advisors (and the agents or representatives of any of the foregoing).
Any such disclosure shall be made in compliance with any Consumer Lending Law and other applicable Law.

Section 2.05    [*****].

Section 2.06    Grant of Security Interest in Retained Economics Loans. It is the express intent of Lender and Servicer that pursuant to the Origination Papers, Lender shall be, and be treated for all purposes as, the true lender and the owner of such Retained Economics Loans, holding good and marketable title thereto free and clear of any liens (subject to the rights of Servicer hereunder and the other Origination Papers), and the beneficial interest in and title to such Retained Economics Loans shall not be part of Servicer’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against Servicer under any bankruptcy or similar law. It is, further, not the intention of Lender and Servicer that arrangement between Lender and Servicer pursuant to the Origination Papers be deemed a pledge of such Retained Economics Loans by Servicer to Lender to secure a debt or other obligation of Servicer. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, any or all of the Retained Economics Loans are held, determined or considered by a court or as part of any other legal proceeding to be property of Servicer, then to secure the payment and performance of the obligations of Servicer under the Origination Papers, this Origination Agreement constitutes a grant by Servicer of a “security interest” (as defined in the UCC) in the Retained Economics Loans to Lender, which is enforceable upon execution and delivery of this Origination Agreement. Upon the filing of an appropriate financing statement, naming Lender as secured party and Servicer as debtor and identifying the Retained Economics Loans as collateral, Lender shall have a perfected security or 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 14

ownership interest in the Retained Economics Loans that shall be a first priority security or ownership interest, subject only in the case of its categorization as a security interest to liens for

taxes, assessments or other governmental charges that are not yet due and payable or that are being contested by Servicer in good faith and in respect of which appropriate reserves have been established and other customary permitted liens. Servicer agrees to cooperate as Lender may request in filing financing statements or make other filings or execute such other assignments or collateral assignments as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect Lender’s security interest in the Retained Economics Loans and/or reflect Lender’s outright ownership of the Retained Economics Loans. Immediately upon any Retained Economics Loan ceasing to be a Retained Economics Loan hereunder, the security interest granted hereby in such Retained Economics Loan shall be automatically terminated and released, without the need for action on the part of any Person. Lender agrees to cooperate as Servicer may request in filing financing statements or other filings or in executing such other termination statements or lien releases as may be necessary or appropriate to reflect any such termination and release of Lender’s security interest in such Retained Economics Loan.

Section 2.07    Improper Loans. If either Lender or Servicer becomes aware of an Improper Loan, it shall provide notice of such Improper Loan to the other Party, and Servicer shall either, in its discretion, (a) cure the circumstance causing the applicable Loan to be an Improper Loan within 30 days of such notice or (b) shall purchase (or cause its designee to purchase) from Lender such Improper Loan by paying Lender an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Improper Loan (except to the extent that Lender previously has been paid for the Outstanding Balance of such Improper Loan pursuant to the Servicing Agreement), and in connection therewith Lender shall assign its entire right, title and interest in such Improper Loan to Servicer (or its designee) and the servicing of such Improper Loan shall be released from the servicing under the Servicing Agreement; provided, however, Lender’s obligation to sell an Improper Loan to Servicer’s designee pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be subject to Lender’s compliance with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements in respect of such proposed designee (including, without limitation, any applicable “know your customer” and similar requirements). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Servicer does not possess the licenses necessary to own such Improper Loan and such Improper Loan and Lender’s ownership thereof does not violate applicable Law, then Lender instead shall grant solely to Servicer (and not its designee) an Economic Participation in such Improper Loan in exchange for Servicer paying Lender an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Improper Loan (except to the extent that Lender previously has been paid for the Outstanding Balance of such Improper Loan pursuant to the Economics Agreement), and if Servicer later obtains the licenses necessary to own such Improper Loan then Lender shall, upon Servicer’s request, transfer Lender’s legal title to such Improper Loan to Servicer and the servicing of such Improper Loan shall be released from the servicing under the Servicing Agreement.

Section 2.08    Exclusive Program. Lender agrees that neither it nor its Affiliates will provide consumer financing for goods or services offered by a Program Merchant that is a party to a Program Agreement or its Sponsor other than pursuant to this Origination Agreement [*****].

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 15

Section 2.09    Non-Exclusivity. Lender understands and agrees that the customer relationships with the Borrowers established as a result of Lender’s participation in the GreenSky® Program are non-exclusive to Lender, and, during and after the Term, Lender and

Servicer shall have the right to market other products and services to Borrowers based upon information obtained with respect to a Loan, or the Borrower’s application for a Loan, (collectively, “Loan Information”) subject to compliance with applicable Law (including, without limitation, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (Regulation P) to the extent applicable) and any limitations imposed by any Program Agreement. Lender will share such information with Servicer for such purposes based on the written authorization of Borrower to Lender to share such information. Lender shall reasonably cooperate and collaborate with Servicer on processes to comply with legal and regulatory matters related to such marketing and promotional activities.

Section 2.10    Information Sharing.

(a)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Origination Agreement, Lender agrees to share Borrower information with Program Merchants, Sponsors and other federally-insured and federal- or state-chartered financial institutions participating in the GreenSky® Program and actual and potential Purchasers (and any agent or representative of any of the foregoing) as permitted by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, including, but not limited to, for the purpose of (i) effecting, administering, collecting and enforcing a Loan or other transaction requested or authorized by such Borrower, (ii) protecting against or preventing actual or potential fraud, unauthorized transactions, claims or other liability, or (iii) sharing such information with persons holding a legal or beneficial interest relating to such Borrower. To facilitate such information sharing, Lender directs Servicer, as its agent and subject to oversight and control by Lender, to share such information with such third parties for the purposes described in this Section 2.10.

(b)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Origination Agreement, Lender agrees to share Borrower consumer reports with Purchasers as permitted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, including (i) before the sale of any Loan or Economic Participation for the purpose of sharing such information incident to the transfer of all or a portion of the underlying Loan or Economic Participation for the purpose of evaluating the potential transaction to consummate the sale or (ii) after the sale of any Loan or Economic Participation to Purchasers acting on behalf of future successors in interest for the purpose of sharing such information incident to the transfer of all or a portion of the underlying Loan or Economic Participation for the purpose of evaluating the potential transaction to consummate the sale.

Section 2.11    Agency. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Origination Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties, Lender appoints Servicer as Lender’s agent for purposes of providing the services contemplated by this Origination Agreement. If Servicer receives funds in connection with the Loans, it will receive such funds in trust on behalf of and as agent of Lender. Servicer agrees that it will hold such funds in trust on behalf of and solely as agent of Lender, and Servicer disclaims any right, title, or interest in such funds (except to the extent that Servicer has any economic rights to such funds pursuant to this Origination Agreement, the Servicing Agreement, or the Economics Agreement). Lender agrees that, as between Lender and the Borrower who remits funds to Servicer (or the person on whose behalf 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 16

such funds are remitted), Lender will consider itself to have received such funds as of receipt by Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, to the same extent as if Lender had received such funds directly. To the extent that such funds are remitted to Servicer for the purpose of

discharging an obligation to Lender, Lender acknowledges that receipt of such funds by Servicer will discharge this obligation to the same extent as if Lender had received such funds directly. Lender acknowledges that funds delivered by a Borrower to Servicer in respect of a Loan as contemplated by this Origination Agreement are paid to Lender for the purpose of satisfying a preexisting obligation of the Borrower to Lender in respect of such Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement in respect of Collections (as defined in the Servicing Agreement) relating to Participated Loans, Lender agrees that a Servicing Supplement may direct such Collections to an account designated by the applicable holder of the Economic Participation in such Participated Loan (or any financing counterparty of any such holder).

Section 2.12    Various Agreements Relating to the Loans. Lender acknowledges that one or more Persons (which may include Servicer) may desire to purchase Loans or Economic Participations from time to time and, in furtherance thereof, Lender desires to have Servicer, on behalf of Lender, provide certain clerical, ministerial, and administrative services in connection therewith to facilitate such purchases in accordance with any applicable Transfer Agreement.
Accordingly, Lender and Servicer agree as follows:

(a)Loans are Retained Economics Loans until becoming a Participated Loan or a Sold Loan. Any Loan funded hereunder shall be deemed a Retained Economics Loan for all purposes until the date (if any) upon which such Loan becomes a Participated Loan or a Sold Loan in accordance with this Origination Agreement.

(b)Participated Loans.

(i)On any date after the Required Holding Period has expired for a Loan, such Loan may be designated to become a “Participated Loan” hereunder upon the delivery by Servicer (on behalf of a Purchaser) to Lender of a Loan Designation Notice, which Loan Designation Notice shall designate (A) the identity of the Purchaser of the Economic Participation in such Loan, (B) the Loan regarding which an Economic Participation will be sold to such Purchaser, (C) the proposed Sale Date for such Economic Participation, (D) the proposed Cutoff Date for such proposed sale, and (E) the approximate Purchase Price for such proposed sale. Except as set forth in Section 2.12(b)(ii) below, any such Loan Designation Notice shall be delivered to Lender not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Sale Date.

(ii)If the proposed Purchaser set forth in any Loan Designation Notice described in Section 2.12(b)(i) (or any other proposed Purchaser regarding whom Servicer has notified Lender in writing, whether or not a Loan Designation Notice has yet been delivered in respect of such proposed Purchaser) is not a Person with whom Lender has already entered into a Participation Sale Agreement, then, subject to Lender’s compliance with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements in respect of such proposed Purchaser (including, without limitation, any applicable “know your customer” and similar requirements), Lender will enter into a Participation Sale Agreement with such proposed Purchaser within fifteen (15) days of the date Lender has received satisfactory 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 17

documentation necessary to comply with the applicable legal or regulatory requirements for such proposed Purchaser following the receipt of such Loan Designation Notice.

(iii)With respect to any Loan designated to become a Participated Loan in accordance with Section 2.12(b)(i), subject to Lender’s receipt of the Purchase Price for such Loan on or prior to the Sale Date for such Loan and subject to satisfaction of the Purchase Price Condition (as defined in the Economics Agreement), Lender shall on the Sale Date listed in the applicable Loan Designation Notice (or such other date as shall be agreed to by the applicable Purchaser, Lender and Servicer), sell to the Purchaser listed in such Loan Designation Notice an Economic Participation in such Loan pursuant to a Participation Sale Agreement.

(iv)To the extent that there are outstanding obligations to fund additional loan proceeds and/or future advances with respect to any Loan designated to become a Participated Loan, then, notwithstanding the sale of the Economic Participation in the Loan to a Purchaser, Lender hereby agrees to fund, in accordance with this Origination Agreement, any such amounts as and to the extent drawn down by the applicable borrower (each, a “Future Advance”), and the Purchaser shall agree in the Participation Sale Agreement to purchase the Economic Participation relating to each Future Advance funded by Lender for the applicable Purchase Price in respect of such Future Advance by paying such amount to Lender within five (5) Business Days of funding. As set forth in the Participation Sale Agreement, upon the Purchaser’s payment of such amount to Lender, and without further action or agreement between the parties, Lender shall thereby sell to the Purchaser the Economic Participation in such Future Advance.

(v)Other than in respect of the Economic Participations sold in respect thereof as set forth in Section 2.12(c) or except as expressly provided in Section 7.05, Lender will continue to hold title to, and will continue to be the lender of record for, each Participated Loan and it will not transfer, sell, assign or in any way encumber any Participated Loan (except pursuant to the Participation Sale Agreement). Lender intends that each sale of an Economic Participation under a Participation Sale Agreement constitutes a “participation” within the meaning of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s Safe Harbor Rule for Participations, 12 C.F.R. § 360.6, in effect from time to time. Lender intends that each transfer of an Economic Participation under a Participation Sale Agreement will satisfy the conditions for sale accounting treatment under generally accepted accounting principles and Lender agrees to make entries on its books and records to clearly indicate such sale accounting treatment for each transfer of an Economic Participation under a Participation Sale Agreement to each Purchaser as of each applicable Sale Date.

(vi)In respect of any Economic Participation sold hereunder or granted pursuant to Section 2.07 of the Servicing Agreement, Lender shall maintain a register (the “Participant Register”) on which it will enter the name and address of the Purchaser or holder of such Economic Participation, the Participated Loan regarding which such Economic Participation was sold, and the Outstanding Balance (and stated interest) of the 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 18

Participated Loan underlying such Economic Participation. Lender hereby appoints Servicer as its non-fiduciary agent for purposes of maintaining the Participant Register, 

and Servicer hereby accepts such appointment. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Lender upon reasonable request.

(c)Elevation; Sold Loans.

(i)On any date after the Required Holding Period has expired for a Loan, such Loan may be designated to become a “Sold Loan” hereunder upon the delivery by Servicer (on behalf of a Purchaser) to Lender of a Loan Designation Notice, which Loan Designation Notice shall designate (A) the identity of the Purchaser of such Loan, (B) the Loan which will be sold to such Purchaser, (C) the proposed Sale Date for such Loan, (D) the proposed Cutoff Date for such proposed sale, and (E) the approximate Purchase Price for such proposed sale. Except as set forth in Section 2.12(c)(iii), any such Loan Designation Notice shall be delivered to Lender not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Sale Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan Designation Notice purporting to designate any Participated Loan as a “Sold Loan” hereunder shall not be valid unless it is countersigned by the applicable Purchaser (as set forth in the Participant Register) of the Economic Participation in such Participated Loan. In connection with any sale of a Loan under this Section 2.12(c)(i), the servicing rights for each Loan sold in such sale shall be automatically sold and transferred by Lender to Servicer (or any designee of Servicer so designated as such in writing to Lender).

(ii)Further, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default, any Participated Loan may be designated by the applicable Purchaser (as set forth in the Participant Register) of the Economic Participations therein to become a “Sold Loan” hereunder upon the delivery by such Purchaser to Lender (with a copy to the Servicer) of a Loan Designation Notice, which Loan Designation Notice shall designate (A) the identity of the Purchaser of such Loan, (B) the Loan which will be sold to such Purchaser, (C) the proposed Sale Date for such Loan, (D) the proposed Cutoff Date for such proposed sale, and (E) the approximate Purchase Price for such proposed sale. Except as set forth in Section 2.12(c)(iii), any such Loan Designation Notice shall be delivered to Lender not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Sale Date. Any sale of a Loan under this Section 2.12(c)(ii) shall be on a servicing-released basis.

(iii)If the proposed Purchaser set forth in any Loan Designation Notice described in Sections 2.12(c)(i) or (ii) above (or any other proposed Purchaser regarding whom Servicer has notified Lender in writing, whether or not a Loan Designation Notice has yet been delivered in respect of such proposed Purchaser) is not a Person with whom Lender has already entered into a Loan Sale Agreement, then Lender agrees, subject to Lender’s compliance with any applicable legal or regulatory requirements in respect of such Purchaser (including, without limitation, any applicable “know your customer” and similar requirements), to enter into a Loan Sale Agreement with such proposed Purchaser within fifteen (15) days of the date Lender has received satisfactory documentation necessary to comply with the applicable legal or regulatory requirements for such proposed Purchaser following the receipt of such Loan Designation Notice.
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 19

(iv)With respect to any Loan designated for sale in accordance with Section 2.12(c)(i) or (ii), subject to Lender’s receipt of the Purchase Price for such Loan on or prior to the Sale Date for such Loan and subject to satisfaction of the Purchase Price Condition (as defined in the Economics Agreement), Lender shall on the Sale Date listed in the applicable Loan Designation Notice (or such other date as shall be agreed to by the applicable Purchaser, Lender and (other than in respect of a sale made in respect of Section 2.12(c)(ii), Servicer), sell such Loan to the Purchaser listed in such Loan Designation Notice.

(v)To the extent that there are outstanding obligations to fund additional loan proceeds and/or future advances with respect to any Loan designated to become a Sold Loan, then the Purchaser shall agree in the Loan Sale Agreement to assume all   obligations to fund all such amounts as and to the extent drawn down by the applicable borrower.

(d)Lender hereby acknowledges each Purchaser’s right to transfer and/or collaterally assign or otherwise pledge its rights and interests in an Economic Participation. Lender agrees to cooperate with Servicer and each applicable Purchaser regarding the sale of Economic Participations to and by such Purchaser, including: (i) considering a reasonable multi-party or similar agreement with Servicer and Purchaser and, if applicable, Purchaser’s source of financing (and requesting any required consents or approvals); and (ii) confirming upon request any Purchaser’s assignment of its rights under this Origination Agreement as such rights relate to any Economic Participations or any Loans underlying such Economic Participations, in any such case in connection with an asset sale, financing or securitization transaction; provided, however, that Lender shall be reimbursed by Purchaser for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lender in connection with Lender’s cooperation for such asset sale, financing or securitization transaction.

(e)In respect of any Acquired Loan, automatically upon any Acquired Loan ceasing to be a Retained Economics Loan hereunder, Lender shall be deemed to assign to the applicable Purchaser all repurchase and related rights relating to such Acquired Loan that Lender has against the seller of the Acquired Loan.

(f)Each Purchaser shall be an express third-party beneficiary of this Section 2.12, with the power to enforce its rights hereunder as if such Purchaser were a direct party to this Origination Agreement.

In originating the Loans, Servicer and any third parties involved in the origination of the Loans have complied with all applicable anti-money laundering laws, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001, as amended, and any similar applicable Laws (collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”); Servicer and any third parties involved in the origination of the Loans have established anti-money laundering compliance programs as required by the Anti-Money Laundering Laws and have conducted the requisite due diligence in connection with the origination of the Loans for purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws; and Servicer maintains, and will maintain, sufficient information
to evidence such actions and identify the applicable Borrowers for purpose of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Servicer shall ensure that each Borrower is not on any list maintained by the United States Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (the “OFAC list”) of prohibited persons, entities, or prohibited or restricted jurisdictions. Upon request, Servicer shall provide documents and information requested by Lender demonstrating Servicer’s compliance with the referenced laws and regulations including, but not limited to, customer information that was required to be collected during the loan origination process. The audit rights permitted to Lender under this Origination Agreement shall include the right of Lender to review the Servicer’s anti-money laundering compliance program.

(x)Reasonable Steps. With respect to each individual assigned by Servicer to perform services for Lender, including originating and Servicing the Loans, Servicer has taken all commercially reasonable steps: (a) to ensure that such individual has not been convicted of any felony or aggravated misdemeanor and has not been banned from the business of banking;
(b) to verify that such individual, if performing services in the United States, is eligible to work in the United States in accordance with all applicable laws; and (c) to ensure that such individual is not on any OFAC list. Servicer has taken all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that no entity to which Servicer subcontracts any work under this Origination Agreement or the Servicing Agreement is on the OFAC list. Neither Servicer, nor any of its owners (including without limitation its shareholders, partners and members, as applicable) are on the OFAC list.

(xi)Acceptable Investment. To the Best of Servicer’s Knowledge as of the funding date of any Loan, there are no circumstances or conditions with respect to such Loan or the applicable Borrower that can reasonably be expected to cause private institutional investors to regard such Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause such Loan to become delinquent or adversely affect the value or marketability of such Loan.

(xii)Documentation/Due Execution. Each loan file for each Loan (which may be electronic) contains the credit agreement, all underwriting documents, all collection notes, and

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 25

all formal correspondence and notices, and shall otherwise contain all such information and documentation as required under applicable Laws for the Lender to fund and maintain a given Loan made hereunder. In addition to the loan files, Servicer will maintain proof of the delivery and content of any required disclosures under applicable Law for a Loan. Such loan files and proof of the delivery and content of required disclosures shall be maintained by the Servicer in a manner consistent with these practices of a prudent lending institution. The credit agreement and all other instruments evidencing any Loan have been duly executed by the applicable Borrower with respect thereto.

(b)Notice of Breach. Upon discovery by either Servicer or Lender of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.02, the Party discovering such breach shall give written notice to the other Party within three (3) Business Days following such discovery; provided that the failure to give notice within three (3) Business Days does not preclude subsequent notice.

(c)Limited Remedy in Certain Circumstances. The Lender shall have as its sole remedy for an unintentional breach of the representation set forth in the second sentence of clause (vi), clause (viii) or the third sentence of clause (xii) the right to require the Servicer to purchase the applicable Loan(s) (or an Economic Participation therein) giving rise to such misrepresentation pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof.

Section 4.03    Representations and Warranties of Lender.

(a)Representations and Warranties of Lender. As of the date hereof and as of each Settlement Date, Lender hereby represents and warrants to, and agrees with, Servicer that:

(i)Organization. Lender is a state bank duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia and Lender is qualified to do business and is in good standing in all other jurisdictions in which the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification necessary, except where failure to so qualify would not be reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to have a material adverse effect on (a) the business, operations, assets or financial condition of Lender, or (b) the ability of the Lender to perform its obligations under this Origination Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or the Economics Agreement; provided, however, that the Lender may from time to time re-incorporate or re-charter under any other U.S. or state banking Law.

(ii)Capacity; Authority; Validity. Lender has all necessary power and authority to enter into this Origination Agreement and to perform all of the obligations to be performed by it under this Origination Agreement. This Origination Agreement and the other Origination Papers and the consummation by Lender of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Origination Papers have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Lender, and this Origination Agreement and the other Origination Papers have been duly executed and delivered by Lender and constitute the valid and binding obligation of Lender and are enforceable against Lender in accordance with their terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by equitable limitations on the availability of equitable remedies and by bankruptcy and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally).

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 26

(iii)Conflicts; Defaults. Neither the execution and delivery of this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers by Lender nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Origination Agreement and the other Origination Papers by Lender, will
(A) conflict with, result in the breach of, constitute a default under, or accelerate the performance provided by the terms of any contract, instrument or commitment to which Lender is a party or by which it is bound, (B) violate the certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or other equivalent organizational document of Lender, (C) require any consent or approval under any judgment, order, writ, decree, permit or license to which Lender is a party or by which it is bound, or

Lender is not subject to any agreement with any regulatory authority which would prevent the consummation by Lender of the transactions contemplated by this Origination Agreement and the other Origination Papers.

(iv)Litigation. There is no claim, or any litigation, proceeding, arbitration, investigation or controversy pending, to which Lender is a party and by which it is bound, which adversely affects in a material respect Lender’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers to which it is a party, or which questions the validity or enforceability of any of the Origination Papers to which it is a party or any action to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Origination Papers to which it is a party, and, To the Best of Lender’s Knowledge, no such claim, litigation, proceeding, arbitration, investigation or controversy has been threatened or is contemplated and no facts exist which would provide a basis for any such claim, litigation, proceeding, arbitration, investigation or controversy.

(v)No Consent, Etc. No consent of any Person (including without limitation any stockholder or creditor of Lender) and no consent, license, permit or approval or authorization or exemption by notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any Governmental Authority is required (other than those previously obtained and delivered to Servicer and other than the filing of financing statements in connection with the transfer of the Loans) in connection with the execution or delivery of this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers by Lender, the validity of this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers with respect to Lender, the enforceability of this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers against Lender, the consummation by Lender of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Origination Papers, or the performance of Lender of its obligations hereunder and under the other Origination Papers.

(vi)Compliance with Laws.      The Underwriting Criteria are consistent with Lender’s lending authority under state and federal law, and Lender shall notify Servicer immediately of any change to such lending authority. The Lender (x) is a state bank whose deposits are, as of the date hereof, insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and    (y) has in effect and will have in effect all material Permits (it being agreed that any Permit required for the performance by Lender of its obligations under this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers that is necessary for a Loan to be validly made and enforceable shall be deemed material) necessary for it to own, lease, or operate its Assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as contemplated hereby and to perform its obligations under this 
FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 27

Origination Agreement and the other Origination Papers, and such Permits are in full force and effect, except, in each case, where the failure to so obtain or maintain such Permit would not have a material adverse effect on the Lender’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder, and, To the Best of Lender’s Knowledge, there has occurred no Default under any such Permit, and the Lender is not:

(A)in Default under any of the provision of its charter or bylaws, in any material respect that would have a material adverse effect on this Origination Agreement or the Servicing Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby;

(B)in Default under any Laws, Orders, or Permits applicable to its business or employees conducting its businesses in any material respect that would cause a material adverse effect on this Origination Agreement or the Servicing Agreement; or

(b)        Notice of Breach. Upon discovery by either Servicer or Lender of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 4.03, the Party discovering such breach shall give written notice to the other Party within three (3) Business Days following such discovery; provided that the failure to give notice within three (3) Business Days does not preclude subsequent notice.

(vi)Lender Review of Marketing Materials.

(A)Servicer agrees to make the Marketing Materials available to Lender, upon Lender’s reasonable request, for Lender’s review; further, Servicer agrees [*****].

Where the names of other lenders generally are being utilized, Lender shall have the right to have its name used in connection with Marketing Materials delivered to Program Merchants and Sponsors, so long as such publicity and marketing is not, in the reasonable opinion of the Servicer, inappropriate or otherwise unacceptable or  inconsistent with the Servicer’s business plan. Further, and in addition to the foregoing, Lender shall retain full control over the use of Lender’s Marks (as defined below) and, in this connection, the Servicer shall not use any Mark without the prior written consent of the Lender, except that Servicer may use Lender’s name in connection with Loan collection activities on behalf of Lender pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. The Servicer and Lender agree that “in-store” marketing of the GreenSky® Program available to customers of a given Program Merchant shall not include the name or trademarks of  the Lender. However, the Servicer shall afford the Lender the opportunity (but not the obligation) to have its name and marks included in any Marketing Materials in which other lenders are identified.

(B)If Servicer will be using any Synovus name, tradename, trademark, logo, slogan, domain name, URL or service mark (collectively, “Marks”):

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 29

(II)Servicer shall use the Marks in a manner so as to uphold the high quality standards presently associated with the Marks and as directed by Lender in writing. In no event may Servicer combine any of Lender’s Marks without the written consent of Lender.

(IV)Servicer acknowledges that all goodwill arising out of its use of the Marks will inure to the sole benefit of Lender.

(C)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer shall not grant permission to any website used to advertise or service the Loans and that uses a Mark to be linked or linked from any other website without the prior written approval of Lender or pursuant to a mutually agreed upon approval process for granting such website linkage. In the event that Servicer has knowledge of such prohibited linkage, Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to, as soon as practicable, remove, or cause to be removed, such link. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Servicer shall take all reasonable steps as may be necessary to ensure that its Internet advertising shall be displayed only on websites containing material that is not of a prurient, hateful, illegal, discriminatory or offensive nature.

(vii)[*****].

(viii)Compliance Conditions. Servicer agrees to comply with the compliance conditions set forth in Schedule A.

(ix)Performance of Obligations. [*****].

With respect to any such material Permit, in the event any Governmental Authority provides a written notice, directive or inquiry to Servicer that asserts Servicer is in violation of the requirements for such Permit to perform its obligations under this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers in a jurisdiction requiring such Permit, Servicer will promptly respond to such notice, directive or inquiry and, to the extent that such Permit is required by

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 30

applicable Law, take commercially reasonable actions to obtain such Permit by commencing the application process in such jurisdiction within thirty (30) days after confirmation by such Governmental Authority that such Permit is required and expeditiously pursuing such Permit (or otherwise cause loans in such jurisdiction to cease to be allocated to Lender for origination); provided that if Servicer fails to satisfy its obligations under this Section 5.01(a)(x), then Lender, in its discretion, may direct that servicing of the Loans subject to such jurisdiction be transferred to the Backup Servicer and Servicer shall promptly transfer the servicing of the Loans subject to such jurisdiction to the Backup Servicer, until such time that Servicer obtains such Permit.

(xi)Subsidiaries Providing Services. Pursuant to the first paragraph of this Agreement, any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GreenSky, LLC may provide or be delegated any duties, obligations or responsibilities of GreenSky, LLC under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) GreenSky, LLC shall not be released or relieved of any of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Origination Papers, (ii) GreenSky, LLC and any such subsidiary shall be jointly and severally liable for any action or omission of any such subsidiary as if such action or omission were an action or omission of GreenSky, LLC, and (iii) any such subsidiary shall be subject to the audit, review and examination rights of Lender as set forth in this Agreement (including Section 6.03 hereof) and the Servicing Agreement (including Section 2.04 thereof).

Section 5.02    Regulatory Inspections. Each Party shall make available its facilities, personnel and records with regard to the matters relating the Loans for examination or
audit when requested by a Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the other Party.

Section 5.03    Technology License. In furtherance of the activities contemplated by this Origination Agreement, Servicer grants Lender a non-exclusive, nontransferable, nonsublicensable, revocable license to use, or for Servicer on Lender’s behalf to use, Servicer’s GreenSky® Program technology platform and the trademarks, logos, program names and other intellectual property rights made available by Servicer to lenders participating in the GreenSky® Program in connection with their participation therein (the “Licensed Technology”) during the term of this Origination Agreement solely for the purposes of, and in connection with, Lender’s participation in the GreenSky® Program. Lender acknowledges and agrees that Servicer will remain the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Technology (including any and all modifications or derivative works thereof) and all intellectual property rights relating thereto, and Lender does not and will not have or acquire any ownership interest in the Licensed Technology (or any modifications or derivative works thereof) or any

intellectual property rights relating thereto under or in connection with this Origination Agreement.

ARTICLE VI
TERM, TERMINATION AND PURCHASE

Section 6.01    Term. This Origination Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue until the earlier of (a) the third anniversary of the Effective Date, provided that (i) the Parties shall discuss in good faith the extension of such date not less than 180 days prior to the expiration date then in effect, and (ii) such date shall be extended automatically for additional two year periods without further action by the Parties, unless not less than 120 days prior to the expiration date then in effect either party gives the other party written notice of nonrenewal; (b) the termination of the Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms; or (c) the date this Origination Agreement may otherwise be terminated by a party hereto pursuant to the terms hereof (such period of time, the “Term”).

Section 6.02    Failure to Perform. Each of the following shall constitute a “Performance Termination Event”: (i) Servicer fails to satisfy the Compliance Conditions in a material respect; and/or (ii) Servicer is in Default under this Origination Agreement; and/or (iii) a Servicer Default has occurred and is continuing under the Servicing Agreement and/or (iv) the Servicer makes any material misrepresentations hereunder and/or (v) if the average Performance Threshold for any rolling four-month period is greater than [*****]%. If (x) a Performance Termination Event described in clauses (i), (ii) and/or (iv) occurs and such Performance Termination Event is not cured to the reasonable satisfaction of the Lender within ninety (90) days after Servicer receives notice of such Performance Termination Event, or (y) in the event a Performance Termination Event described in clause (iii) or clause (v) occurs, this Origination Agreement may, at the Lender’s sole option, upon thirty (30) days’ notice (which may run concurrently with the applicable cure period, if any), be terminated, although Lender shall continue to be obligated to
(i) fund all approved but not fully funded Retained Loans and Participated Loans that conform to the Credit Policy as of the day prior to the termination date set forth in the notice of the Performance Termination Event until such time as all such Loans have been fully funded and
(ii) pay Servicer amounts due pursuant to the Economics Agreement in accordance with its terms. In addition to its termination rights, upon the occurrence of a Performance Termination Event, the Lender may (x) unilaterally amend or modify the Credit Policy and Underwriting Criteria, (y) require the Servicer to purchase one or more Retained Economics Loans pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof if so required therein and/or (z) may otherwise pursue any remedies at law or in equity under all applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Lender Servicing Representative (as defined in Schedule 8.4 hereof) obtains actual knowledge that a Performance Termination Event has occurred and the Lender has not notified the Servicer that it elects to terminate this Origination Agreement by reason of the occurrence of such Performance Termination Event (or that it intends to terminate this Origination Agreement if such Performance Termination Event is not cured to the satisfaction of the Lender) within ninety (90) days after the obtaining of such actual knowledge, such Performance Termination Event (but not subsequent Performance Termination Events (even if similar)) shall be deemed waived (unless the parties hereto, in writing or by conduct, have extended the applicable cure period (if any) for such Performance Termination Event or such ninety (90) day cure period).

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 32

Section 6.03    Audit/Oversight/Termination for Non-compliance. Servicer agrees to make available its facilities, personnel and records when reasonably requested by Lender (or at any time requested by Lender’s regulators or examiners) at a time to be reasonably agreed to by Servicer, Lender or Lender’s auditors or examiners as appropriate, to enable Lender or its auditors, regulators and examiners to audit Servicer’s internal audit and compliance procedures with respect to Servicer’s: (i) accounting, (ii) information technology and data systems, (iii) data security, (iv) insurance, (v) overall operations, processes and procedures, (vi) loan origination and loan servicing and collection areas, policies and procedures, (vii) compliance with its confidentiality obligations, (viii) use of subservicers and other subcontractors and the monitoring thereof, (ix) new or revised policies, processes, information technology and management of information systems of the Servicer, (x) reputational and conflict-of-interest issues, if any,

Such audits may be remote or on-site.  Once each calendar quarter (or more frequently if Servicer is in Default or a Performance Termination Event has previously occurred and is continuing or as requested by Lender’s regulators or examiners), at a time to be reasonably agreed to by Servicer and Lender, Lender or its auditors, regulators and examiners shall be entitled to conduct such audits. The Parties will reasonably determine the extent and methodology of the testing or the nature of such audit, subject to the approval of Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Further, Servicer shall conduct such self-testing and monitoring, and arrange for such internal audits, as necessary and appropriate to ensure compliance with all requirements of this Origination Agreement and the Servicing Agreement and the development and establishment of contingency planning and obligations applicable to Servicer’s personnel and contractors and Laws (including Consumer Lending Laws). Servicer agrees to correct any material deficiencies noted during these audits (as reasonably determined by Lender) within thirty (30) days of such notice (or within ninety (90) days in the event that Servicer promptly undertakes and continues to actively pursue corrective action within 30 days). Should Servicer not correct any such material deficiencies within such time period (“Noncompliance Event”), Lender is permitted to terminate this Origination Agreement upon ten (10) days’ notice and otherwise exercise remedies as if the Noncompliance Event constituted a Performance Termination Event. If an audit by Lender or any of its auditors, regulators, or examiners, or audit provided to Lender by Servicer reveals any issues or concerns regarding security, systems, confidentiality or compliance with applicable Law (including Consumer Lending Law), or if Lender becomes aware of any issues or concerns regarding security, systems, confidentiality or compliance with applicable Law (including Consumer

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 33

Lending Law) with respect to any other lender of Servicer, Lender may conduct additional audits and testing as reasonably necessary until such issues or concerns are resolved to Lender’s reasonable satisfaction. Upon Lender's reasonable request, Servicer shall assist and cooperate with Lender, in conducting and/or responding to any audit or audit request, including assisting in Lender's attempts to obtain certifications or other confirmations, including industry, professional, regulatory or other standards, regulatory or self-regulatory organizations and standard-setting bodies. Lender’s failure to exercise its right to audit Servicer pursuant to this Section shall not act as a waiver of any of this rights or remedies under this Origination Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall continue to be obligated to (i) fund all approved but not fully funded Retained Loans and Participated Loans that conform to the Credit Policy that have been approved as of the day prior to the termination date set forth in the notice of the Noncompliance Event until such time as all such Loans have been fully funded and (ii) pay Servicer amounts due pursuant to the Economics Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 6.04    Dissolution Termination. If Servicer voluntarily goes into liquidation or consents to the appointment of a conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding of or relating to Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all its property, or a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against Servicer, or Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations (such voluntary liquidation, appointment, entering of such decree, admission, filing, making or suspension, a “Dissolution Event”), Lender shall have the right, at Lender’s sole option upon the date of any such Dissolution Event, to terminate this Origination Agreement and/or appoint a Successor Servicer by written notice to Servicer, and, thereupon, Lender shall have no further duties or obligations to fund Loans. Servicer shall promptly give notice to Lender of any Dissolution Event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall continue to be obligated to (i) fund all approved but not fully funded Retained Loans and Participated Loans that conform to the Credit Policy as of the day prior to the termination date set forth in the notice of the Dissolution Event until such time as all such Loans have been fully funded and (ii) pay Servicer amounts due pursuant to the Economics Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 6.05    Regulatory Event. Lender may terminate this Origination Agreement and its obligations hereunder, either in whole or with respect to one or more Program Agreements as elected by Lender, upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Servicer (or less if required by the applicable Governmental Authority) if (a) Lender receives written notification from a Governmental Authority indicating (i) that this Origination Agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, breaches, violates, contravenes or conflicts with any Law, Order, or Permit (or any interpretation thereof by such Governmental Authority) in any material respect, including, but not limited to, any determination by such Governmental Authority that this Origination Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby violate or exceed any applicable legal lending limit to which the Lender is subject or (ii) that, with respect to Retained Economics Loans the aggregate outstanding principal balances of which constitutes at least

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 34

[*****] percent ([*****]%) of an amount equal to the maximum Commitment Amount (which, if the Commitment Period has expired or been terminated, shall be deemed for such purpose to be the maximum Commitment Amount in effect immediately prior to such expiration or termination), such Retained Economics Loans breach, violate, contravene or conflict with any Law, Order or Permit (or any interpretation thereof by such Governmental Authority) affecting the enforceability, validity or collectability of such Retained Economic Loans, (b) any Governmental Authority commences any formal investigation, legal action or proceeding (other than a Servicer Regulatory Routine Inquiry) against Servicer or any of its Affiliates challenging its authority to administer, market, collect or service Retained Economics Loans the aggregate outstanding principal balances of which constitutes at least [*****] percent ([*****]%) of an amount equal to the maximum Commitment Amount (which, if the Commitment Period has expired or been terminated, shall be deemed for such purpose to be the maximum Commitment Amount in effect immediately prior to such expiration or termination), or otherwise alleging any material non-compliance by Servicer or any of its Affiliates with any applicable Laws related to administering, marketing, collecting, servicing or enforcing Retained Economics Loans the aggregate outstanding principal balances of which constitutes at least [*****] percent ([*****]%) of an amount equal to the maximum Commitment Amount (which, if the Commitment Period has expired or been terminated, shall be deemed for such purpose to be the maximum Commitment Amount in effect immediately prior to such expiration or termination), which investigation, legal action or proceeding, in each case, is not released or terminated in a manner reasonably acceptable to Lender within ninety (90) calendar days of commencement thereof, or (c) any Governmental Authority issues or enters any Order against Servicer or any of its Affiliates (other than a Servicer Regulatory Routine Inquiry) that has a material adverse impact on (i) the administration, marketing, collection, servicing or enforcement of Retained Economics Loans the aggregate outstanding principal balances of which constitutes at least [*****] percent ([*****]%) of an amount equal to the maximum Commitment Amount (which, if the Commitment Period has expired or been terminated, shall be deemed for such purpose to be the maximum Commitment Amount in effect immediately prior to such expiration or termination), (ii) the ability of Servicer or Lender to perform their respective obligations under this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers, or (iii) the rights of Lender under this Origination Agreement or the other Origination Papers or the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, provided, that, (x) in each case, upon the favorable resolution of such Order described in this clause (c), as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion (whether by judgment, withdrawal of such Order, settlement or otherwise) and confirmed by written notice from Lender (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such event shall cease to exist immediately upon such determination by Lender, and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, the issuance of a civil investigative demand, subpoena or other information request by a Governmental Authority shall not, on its own, constitute such an event (each such event described in clause (a),
(b) or (c), a “Regulatory Event”); subject to the right of Servicer to cure such Regulatory Event within such sixty (60) days (if such Regulatory Event is subject to cure or if such cure period is permitted by such Governmental Authority), it being agreed that Servicer shall have the right to cure a Regulatory Event by purchasing (or causing its designee to purchase) on a whole loan basis a portion of the Retained Economics Loans impacted by such Regulatory Event (or, if Lender’s ownership of such Retained Economics Loans does not violate applicable Law, Economic Participations in a portion of such Retained Economics Loans) such that the Regulatory Event ceases to exist, with such purchase by Servicer (or its designee) being made in

FACILITY LOAN ORIGINATION AGREEMENT (GreenSky-Synovus) – Page 35
