RECITALS
WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Lenders extend credit to Borrower as described below, and Lenders have agreed to provide such credit to Borrower on the terms and conditions contained herein; and
WHEREAS, all capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Annex I hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Agent, Lenders and Borrower hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
CREDIT TERMS
Section 1.1    Term Loan.
(a)    Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lenders severally agree to make loans to the Borrower in an amount for each Lender not to exceed the amount of the Commitment of such Lender. Each Lender hereby agrees to make an initial loan to Borrower in the principal amount equal to its Term Loan Applicable Percentage of One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000.00) (collectively, “Term Loan Initial Advance”). In addition, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, following the initial funding, each Lender further agrees to make one or more additional loans to Borrower in the principal amount not to exceed its Term Loan Applicable Percentage of One Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000,000.00) (collectively, “Term Loan Additional Advance” and, together with the Term Loan Initial Funding, the “Term Loan”). Borrower’s obligation to repay the Term Loan shall be evidenced by this Agreement and promissory notes dated as of the Closing Date (each a “Term Note”), all terms of which are incorporated herein by this reference. Each Lender’s commitment to make the Term Loan Initial Advance shall terminate on, and each Lender’s Commitment with respect to the Term Loan Initial Advance shall expire on, the date ten (10) days after the Closing Date. Lender’s commitment to make the Term Loan Additional Advance shall terminate on, and each Lender’s Commitment with respect to each Term Loan Additional Advance shall expire on, the date forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date. Borrower shall be limited to requesting no more than two (2) Term Loan Additional Advances.




(b)    Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower shall deliver to Agent a Notice of Borrowing (which Notice of Borrowing must be received by Agent prior to 12:00 P.M., Eastern time, one (1) Business Day prior to the earlier of the anticipated Closing Date, Funding Date or the date specified for the making of the Term Loan Additional Advance which shall be a Business Day) requesting that Lenders either (i) make the Term Loans on such date or (ii) fund the Loans into escrow on a specific Funding Date, which shall be no more than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date. Upon receipt of such Notice of Borrowing, Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Not later than 11:00 A.M., Eastern time, on the applicable date, each Lender shall make available to Agent at an account specified by Agent to each Lender an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Term Loan to be made by such Lender. Not later than 12:00 P.M. Eastern time, on the applicable date, Agent shall, as set forth in the Notice of Borrowing, either (A) make available to the Borrower the aggregate of the amounts made available to Agent by Lenders, in like funds as received by Agent or (B) make available to an escrow agent, pursuant to an escrow agreement or instructions agreed upon by Agent, to hold in escrow until the Closing Date, the aggregate amounts made available to Agent by Lenders, in like funds, as received by Agent. Unless Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Term Loan that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender’s share of such Term Loan, Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with this Section 1.1(b) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.
(c)    Repayment. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to Agent for the account of the applicable Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of such Lender on the Loan Maturity Date (or on such earlier date on which the Term Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 5.2). The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans from time to time outstanding from the earlier of the Funding Date (if applicable) or the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 1.1(e) and Section 1.1(f). Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain a Register pursuant to Section 6.4(a), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Term Loan made hereunder and any Term Note evidencing such Term Loan, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to this Section 1.1(c) shall be evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Term Loan made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(d)    Optional Prepayment. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Term Loans, in whole or in part, upon irrevocable notice delivered to Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., Eastern time, one (1) Business Day prior thereto, which notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment; provided that the Borrower concurrently pays all accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans prepaid plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium. Upon receipt of any such notice Agent shall promptly notify each Lender. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of the Term Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000

2



and in an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, or such lesser principal amount thereof as shall then be outstanding. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed in whole or in part.
(e)    Mandatory Prepayments. (i) If on any date Borrower shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or from any Casualty Event, then, on the date not later than two (2) Business Days after receipt by Borrower of such Net Cash Proceeds, the Term Loans shall be prepaid, by an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds with such Net Cash Proceeds applied as specified in Section 1.1(i) plus all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Term Loan prepaid plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium; provided that no Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be due and owing in respect of a Mandatory Prepayment resulting from a Casualty Event. (ii) If on any date (1) a Contributed REO Property ceases to be an Eligible Property, (2) Borrower exceeds the Concentration Limits or (3) the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans at any time exceeds the Borrowing Base plus two percent (2.00%), then, on the date not later than two (2) Business Days after Borrower’s actual or constructive knowledge of the occurrence of (i), (ii) or (iii), the Term Loans shall be prepaid, by an amount equal to in the case of (1) and (2) above, the amount of the Term Loan attributable to the Contributed REO Property which ceased to be an Eligible Property or one or more Contributed REO Properties such that, after giving effect to such prepayment, the Concentration Limits are satisfied (without regard to such Contributed REO Properties), and in the case of (3), the amount by which the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans at any exceeded the Borrowing Base applied as specified in Section 1.1(i) plus all accrued and unpaid interest on the portion of the Term Loan prepaid plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium. (iii) Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loan may not be reborrowed in whole or in part. (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing in clauses (i) and (ii), any mandatory prepayment requirements shall be subject to any available Substitution Cure Right set forth in Section 5.4.
(f)    Interest. The Term Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to five percent (5.00%) per annum (the “Interest Rate”). Interest accrued shall be payable in arrears (through and including the Payment Date) on each Payment Date; provided that (i) interest payable on June 15, 2017 shall be the interest that accrued from the earlier of the initial Funding Date any Term Loans were funded into escrow (if applicable) or the Closing Date through and including June 15, 2017 and (ii) interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. If all or a portion of the principal amount of the Term Loans, any interest payable thereon or any fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) or if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the entire outstanding amount of the Term Loans (whether or not overdue) and all other Obligations (to the extent legally permitted) shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus two percent (2.00)% (the “Default Rate”), in each case, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment) or from the date of the applicable Event of Default until such Event of Default is waived.
(g)    Certain Calculations. Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual days elapsed.
(h)    Pro-Rata Treatment; Payments. Each payment of principal and interest in respect of the Term Loans and each payment in respect of fees payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts

3



of such obligations owing to Lenders pro rata according to the respective Term Loan Applicable Percentage of each Lender. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made, without setoff or counterclaim, to, or at the direction of, Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, to the account or accounts specified by Agent at the office specified by Agent from time to time, in United States Dollars and in immediately available funds prior to 12:00 P.M. Eastern time, on the applicable due date. Upon receipt by Agent of payments on behalf of Lenders, Agent shall promptly distribute such payments to Lender or Lenders entitled thereto, in like funds as received by Agent. If any payment hereunder is due on a due date which is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.
(i)    Priority of Payments. (A) On each Payment Date that occurs prior to a Cash Trap Period and the maturity of the Term Loan (by acceleration or otherwise) and so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any available funds credited to the Operating Account will be applied as follows: first, to pay any amounts due and owing as a result of a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 1.1(e), including any Applicable Prepayment Premium; second, to pay the Tax Reserve, in the amount of Tax funds then required; third, to pay the Insurance Reserve, in the amount of insurance funds then required; fourth, to Agent to pay interest then due and payable on the Term Loans ratably to the Lenders; fifth, to the HOA Reserve, in the amount of home owner’s association funds then required; sixth, to the Maintenance Reserve, in the amount of the maintenance funds then required; seventh, to the Interest Reserve, in the amount of interest then required; eighth, to the payment of any other fees, costs, expenses, indemnities, expense reimbursements or other Obligation due to Agent or any Lender by the Borrower; and ninth, any balance to the Borrower or any other Person legally entitled thereto. (B) Any proceeds of Collateral received by Agent not constituting a specific payment on a Payment Date (which shall be applied as specified in the preceding sentence) or, in any event, all payments received by Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or during a Cash Trap Period shall be applied to the Obligations ratably as follows: first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to Agent from the Borrower; second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lenders from the Borrower; third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Term Loans ratably; fourth, to prepay principal on the Term Loans, including any Applicable Prepayment Premium; fifth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to Agent or any Lender by the Borrower; and sixth, any balance to the Borrower or any other Person legally entitled thereto.
(j)    Obligations Several. The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Term Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its applicable Term Loans.
(k)    Sharing of Setoffs. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of, or interest on, any of its Term Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans of the other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by

4



Lenders ratably in accordance with the Term Loan Applicable Percentage of each Lender; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
Section 1.2    Reserved.
Section 1.3    Requirements of Law. If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (i) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of such Lender or imposes on such Lender any other cost or expense and the effect of such change is to increase the cost of making or maintaining the Term Loans or (ii) regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the Closing Date (it being agreed that (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, shall in each case be deemed to have been made subsequent to the Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such Person could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such additional cost or such reduction; provided, however, that if the applicable Lender has not provided notice to Borrower of the occurrence of any event described in this Section 1.3 within one hundred twenty (120) days of the occurrence of such event, then such payments shall be limited to the period accruing from the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the date the Agent provides such notice to Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, any increase in a Lender’s cost and other amounts due under this Section 1.3 (to the extent such costs or other amounts are incurred with respect to the other loans or in addition to the Term Loan) shall be equitably apportioned across all of such Lender’s loans so affected. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder subject to the requirement specified above to provide

5



notice of any applicable event within one hundred twenty (120) days of the occurrence thereof. This Section 1.3 shall not apply to Taxes.
Section 1.4    Taxes.
(a)    All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in good faith by the Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent 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. If such Tax is a Non-Excluded Tax, the amounts so payable by the Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement.
(b)    In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c)    Whenever any Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to Agent for the account of Agent or Lender, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority, the Borrower shall indemnify Agent and Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
(d)    No later than the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement, the Agent shall require the delivery of a properly completed and signed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form), in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “U.S. Lender”), or a properly completed and signed applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or applicable successor form) in the case of a Lender that is not a U.S. Lender, or other certification reasonably acceptable to the Agent, to enable the Borrower and the Agent to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any Taxes that they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold from payments in respect of such Lender under applicable law. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or, if legally unable to update such form or certification, shall promptly provide written notice to such effect to the Borrower and the Agent. Nothing herein shall be construed to obligate the Agent to determine the duties or liabilities of the Borrower or any other paying agent with respect to any tax certification or withholding requirements, or any tax certification or withholding requirements of any jurisdiction, political subdivision or taxing authority outside the United States.
(e)    A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Agent), at

6



the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender.
(f)    If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender 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 Lender shall deliver to Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by 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 Agent as may be necessary for Agent and Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with its obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 1.4(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Section 1.5    Grant of Security Interest.
(a)    To secure the full payment and performance by Borrower of all Borrower's obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document (whether now or hereinafter existing, whether direct, indirect or contingent, and whether for payment of principal, interest, fees, penalties, indemnifications, costs, expenses or otherwise) (collectively, the “Obligations”), Borrower hereby grants to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders and the other Secured Parties a security interest in (i) all and each of Borrower's Pledged Accounts, (ii) all amounts from time to time deposited in the Pledged Accounts, (iii) all Accounts, (iv) all Chattel Paper; (v) all Contracts, (vi) all Receivables; (vii) all Deposit Accounts, (viii) all Securities Accounts, (ix) all Documents, (x) all Commercial Tort Claims; (xi) all Equipment, (xii) all General Intangibles, (xiii) all Instruments, (xiv) all Inventory, (xv) all Investment Property, (xvi) all Letter-of-Credit Rights, (xvii) all Goods and other property not otherwise described above, and (xviii) all books and records pertaining to the Collateral; and to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds and products of any and all of the foregoing, all Supporting Obligations in respect of any of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any Person with respect to any of the foregoing (together with all equity interests of Pledgor in Borrower and the other “Collateral” under and as defined in the Pledge Agreement, collectively, the “Collateral”).  Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto with respect to the Collateral including any financing or continuation statements, amendments or other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by the Borrower hereunder, without the signature of the Borrower where permitted by law, including the filing of a financing statement describing the Collateral as all assets now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower, or words of similar effect. Borrower agrees to provide all information required by the Agent pursuant to this Section 1.5 promptly to the Agent upon request.
(b)    Borrower shall cause Pledgor to pledge to Agent as security for all indebtedness and other Obligations of Borrower a first priority perfected security interest in all equity interests of

7



Pledgor in the Borrower. The foregoing shall be evidenced by and subject to the terms of such pledge agreements, financing statements, and other documents as Agent shall reasonably require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. Borrower shall pay to Agent immediately upon demand the full amount of all charges, costs and expenses (to include fees paid to third parties and all allocated costs of Agent personnel), expended or incurred by Agent in connection with any of the foregoing security, including without limitation, filing and recording fees and costs of appraisals, audits and title insurance.
(c)    Borrower hereby appoints the Agent as the Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Borrower and in the name of the Borrower or otherwise, from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement (but the Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to the Borrower or any third party for failure to do so or take action). This appointment, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable. Borrower hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
Section 1.6    Guaranty. The payment and performance of all indebtedness and other Obligations of Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be guaranteed by Limited Guarantor to the extent set forth in, and subject to the terms of the Guaranty.

Borrower has the limited liability company power and authority to execute and deliver, and perform its obligations under, the Loan Documents.
Section 2.2    Authorization and Validity. The Loan Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by Borrower, and upon their execution and delivery in accordance with the provisions hereof will constitute legal, valid and binding agreements and obligations of Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

8



Section 2.3    No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party do not violate any provision of any law or regulation, or contravene any provision of the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of Borrower, or will result in any breach of or default under any contract, obligation, indenture or other instrument to which Borrower is a party or by which Borrower may be bound.
Section 2.4    Litigation. There are no pending, or to the best of Borrower’s knowledge threatened in writing, actions, claims, investigations, suits or proceedings by or before any governmental authority, arbitrator, court or administrative agency which would be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or operation of Borrower.
Section 2.5    Correctness of Financial Statement.

9



Borrower is the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action involving a material expenditure is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment. To the best of Borrower’s knowledge, Borrower does not have material contingent liability in connection with any release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment. Borrower, since its formation, has not owned or leased or had any other interest in any real property other than its interest in any REO Property.
Section 2.11    True and Complete Disclosure. The information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent and Lenders in connection with the negotiation, preparation or delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or included herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, when taken as a whole, do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All written information furnished after the date hereof by or on behalf of Borrower to Agent and Lenders in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will be true, complete and accurate in every material respect, or, in the case of projections, based on reasonable estimates, on the date as of which such information is stated or certified. There is no fact known to a Responsible Officer of Borrower that, after due inquiry, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect that has not been disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents or in a report, financial statement, exhibit, schedule, disclosure letter or other writing furnished to Agent and Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Borrower does not have any Indebtedness other than Indebtedness created pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and ordinary trade payables on customary terms not yet due and owing. Since its formation, the Borrower has conducted no activities other than the acquisition and renovation and leasing of the REO Properties, the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and such other activities as are incidental to the foregoing.
Section 2.13    Representations and Warranties as to Contributed REO Property. Each of the Contributed REO Properties is an Eligible REO Property as of the date such REO Property is included on an REO Property Schedule affixed to a Notice of Borrowing; provided, however, that, as of the Closing Date and the date of each Term Loan Additional Advance, not more than five percent (5%) of the Contributed REO Properties are vacant and/or subject to additional repair or restoration, as specified in the Notice of Borrowing and related REO Property Schedule and the report detailing the BPO Value of each REO Property delivered in connection with or on the Closing Date or the date of such Term Loan Additional Advance. The Contributed REO Properties included on any REO Property Schedule, taken as a whole, satisfy the Acquisition Parameters. None of the REO Documents has any marks or notations indicating that it has been sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Borrower or Agent.
Section 2.14    No Adverse Selection. Neither Borrower nor Property Manager has used selection procedures that identified the Contributed REO Properties, when taken as a whole, as being less desirable or valuable than other comparable assets managed by Property Manager on behalf of entities similar to Borrower.

The Borrower will not hold itself out, or permit itself to be held out, as having agreed to pay or as being liable for the debts of the Limited Guarantor or the Property Manager. Borrower will not act in any other matter that would be reasonably likely to mislead others with respect to the Borrower’s separate identity. Failure of Borrower to comply with any of the foregoing covenants shall not affect the status of the Borrower as a separate legal entity or the limited liability of the Borrower. Borrower shall not make any investment in any Person through the direct or indirect holding of securities or otherwise other than in Eligible Investments. If a Cash Trap Period, Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the making of any dividend or distribution, the Borrower shall not declare or pay any dividends or other distributions to the holders of its equity; provided that, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Limited Guarantor and its Affiliates (which shall, solely for the purpose of this proviso, explicitly exclude the Borrower) shall be permitted to declare and pay any dividends or tax distributions to the shareholders or members of the Borrower, the Limited Guarantor and its Affiliates in the ordinary course to the extent necessary for the Limited Guarantor to continue to qualify as a REIT once it has so qualified.

The Borrower shall take such actions as Agent shall request to enforce the Borrower’s rights under any Leases or in respect of any REO Property, and, at any time during which a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall take such actions as are necessary to enable Agent to exercise such rights in Agent’s own name. The Borrower agrees that at all times, at least one (1) of the directors of the Pledgor will be a director that is not, and has not been, a director, shareholder, officer or employee of any direct or ultimate parent or Affiliate of the Borrower, the Pledgor, the Limited Guarantor or the Property Manager; provided that an independent director or independent officer may serve in similar capacities for other “special purpose entities” formed by the Property Manager and its Affiliates.

The Borrower does not own or intend to, and none of the proceeds from the Term Loan will be used to, carry or purchase any margin securities originally issued by it or any “margin stock” within the meaning of said Regulation U.
Section 4.20    Accounts and Funds. On the Closing Date and on each date an Advance is made, cash proceeds resulting from making the Term Loan will be deposited into the Reserve Account so that the balance of the Reserve Account is not less than the Reserve Required Amount and the balance of the Term Loan proceeds available to the Borrower shall be deposited into the Operating Account or as otherwise instructed by Borrower in a prior written notice. All amounts received in respect of any Contributed REO Property including all sale proceeds, all rent under any Lease, all insurance proceeds and all casualty or condemnation awards, shall be paid to or collected in, the Revenue Account promptly following receipt and identification of such amounts by Borrower, but in any case no later than two (2) Business Days following Borrower’s receipt and identification thereof. On each Remittance Date, the funds in the Revenue Account shall be distributed to the Operating Account to be disbursed from the Operating Account and applied on the Payment Date in accordance with Section 1.1(i) and thereafter such funds shall be disbursed back to the Borrower for use or otherwise maintained in one or more Pledged Accounts or the HOA Reserve Account, pending disbursement, in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, including distributions to the Limited Guarantor to the extent permitted hereunder, in each case, other than any amount in respect of a Lease in the nature of a security deposit (except to the extent applied to any amounts due under a Lease), tax payment, insurance premiums or HOA fees. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower shall be permitted to withdraw funds from the HOA Reserve Account for any home owner’s association fees that Borrower has already made for an REO Property which funded as part of the maintained HOA Reserve. Following the occurrence and continuance of any Cash Trap Period or any Event of Default, Borrower shall no longer have access to the HOA Reserve Account or any amounts deposited therein. Not-Borrower Funds may be removed from any of the Pledged Accounts at any time unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
Section 4.21    Transactions with Affiliates. Borrower shall not enter into any transaction, including, without limitation, any purchase, sale, lease or exchange of an REO Property, the rendering of any service or the payment of any management, advisory or similar fees, with any Affiliate unless such transaction is (a) not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, (b) in the ordinary course of business of the Borrower (including, without limitation, any transfer of REO Property to Affiliates necessary or advisable to maintain Limited Guarantor’s status as a REIT) and (c) upon fair and reasonable terms no less favorable to the Borrower, than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate.

Section 5.2    Remedies. Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default: (a) all Obligations of Borrower under each of the Loan Documents, any term thereof to the contrary notwithstanding, shall at Agent’s option (which Agent shall exercise at the direction of the Required Lenders) and without notice become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of dishonor, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; (b) the obligation, if any, of any Lender to extend any further credit under any of the Loan Documents shall immediately cease and terminate; (c) Agent may instruct Bank to pay the balance of any Pledged Account or the HOA Reserve Account for the payment of any Borrower's obligations hereunder; and (d) Agent and Lenders shall have all rights, powers and remedies available under each of the Loan Documents, or accorded by law, including without limitation the right to resort to any or all security for any credit subject hereto and to exercise any or all of the rights of a beneficiary or secured party pursuant to applicable law.

24



its reasonable discretion within thirty (30) days of such request (or such longer period as Agent may agree in its sole discretion).  Borrower will pay all costs associated with providing Mortgage or Mortgages, including all recordation taxes and filing fees with respect to such Mortgage or Mortgages, any costs and/or expenses related to the assembly of such Mortgage or Mortgages and the delivery thereof to the proper Governmental Authority for recordation, and any reasonable attorneys’ fees or fees for other professionals incurred in connection with the recordation of such Mortgage or Mortgages.  Borrower hereby agrees, in connection with the delivery of any Mortgage or Mortgages required pursuant to this Section 5.3, to negotiate in good faith any modifications to this Agreement reasonably requested by the Agent to reflect that the Contributed REO Properties will be subject to Mortgages.
Section 5.4    Substitution Cure. In the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of any financial covenant set forth in Sections 4.13(b), 4.13(c) or 4.14 or a mandatory prepayment is required pursuant to Section 1.1(e)(ii) or a Cash Trap Period is ongoing, on or before the tenth (10th) day after delivery of the related compliance certificate, Borrower shall have the right to contribute one or more additional Eligible REO Properties to the Contributed REO Properties and Collateral pool hereunder and such additional Eligible REO Properties (each a “Substitute Property”) shall be included in determining compliance with Section 4.13(b), 4.13(c) and Section 4.14, whether a mandatory prepayment is due pursuant to Section 1.1(e)(ii) and whether a Cash Trap Period has occurred and is continuing (the “Substitution Cure Right”); provided, that (a) the REO Property Schedule and the related REO Property Files for any Substitute Properties are actually received by the Borrower no later than fifteen (15) days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such fiscal quarter hereunder or the mandatory prepayment is required to occur, (b) Borrower represents and warrants that each Substitute Property is an Eligible REO Property at the time such REO Property is contributed as Collateral hereunder as part of any substitution cure, (c) such Substitute Properties may be substituted in an amount not to exceed (i) in the aggregate for all Substitute Properties thirty percent (30.00%) of the aggregate BPO Value (as of the Closing Date) for all existing Contributed REO Properties or six percent (6.00%) of the aggregate BPO Value (as of the Closing Date) for all Contributed REO Properties for any Substitute Properties contributed within the prior twelve (12) months in the case of (1) a Substitution Cure Right exercised as a result of a mandatory prepayment resulting from clause (ii)(3) of Section 1.1(e) or (2) a Substitution Cure Right exercised with respect to existing REO Properties for which Property Manager has commenced legal proceedings to evict the applicable Tenant(s) or (ii) in any other case, in the aggregate for all Substituted Properties ten percent (10.00%) of the aggregate BPO Value (as of the BPO Value) for all existing Contributed REO or six percent (6.00%) of the aggregate BPO Value (as of the Closing Date) for all Contributed REO Properties for any Substitute Properties contributed within the prior twelve (12) months (the “Cure Amount”), (d) the Substitution Cure Right shall not be exercised more than four (4) times during the term of the Term Loans and shall not be exercised during more than two (2) consecutive quarters, and (e) in respect of any Substitution Cure Right exercised in lieu of a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 1.1(e)(i), the Cure Amount related to such Substituted Property shall be at a minimum an amount not less than the BPO Value for the existing Contributed REO Property being replaced which triggered the mandatory prepayment requirement. If, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment resulting from the substitution, the Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Sections 4.13(b), 4.13(c) or 4.14 or no Cash Trap Period is continuing, Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such Sections as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply on such date, and the applicable breach or default of such Sections 4.13(b), 4.13(c) or 4.14 or the Cash Trap

25



Period that had occurred or had been triggered shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement. After giving effect to the substitution, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the mandatory prepayment in Section 1.1(e) as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply on such date, and the applicable prepayment shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the request of Agent, Borrower shall provide evidence of the transfer of all Substitute Property to the Collateral and Contributed REO Properties pool and provide any additional information or documentation reasonably requested by Agent in respect of any such Substitute Property.

or to such other address as any party may designate by written notice to all other parties. Each such notice, request and demand shall be deemed given or made as follows: (a) if sent by hand delivery, upon delivery; (b) if sent by mail, upon the earlier of the date of receipt or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class and postage prepaid; and (c) if sent by electronic mail or telecopy, upon receipt.

Anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, any information, notice or documentation required to be delivered by the Borrower, Limited Guarantor or Pledgor under this Agreement or any Loan Document shall not be required to be delivered to the extent that such information, notice or documentation has been made publicly available by or on behalf of the Borrower, Limited Guarantor or Pledgor.

Section 6.3    Costs, Expenses and Attorneys’ Fees. Borrower shall pay to Agent and each Lender immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of Lender’s in‑house counsel), expended or incurred by Agent or any Lender in connection with (a) the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a maximum of $[50,000], Agent’s and each Lender’s continued administration hereof and thereof, and the preparation of any amendments and waivers hereto and thereto, (b) the enforcement of Agent’s and each Lender’s rights and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents, and (c) the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to any of the Loan Documents, including without limitation, any action for declaratory relief, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Agent or any Lender or any other person) relating to Borrower or any other person or entity.
Section 6.4    Successors, Assignment.
a.This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties; provided, however,

27



that Borrower may not assign or transfer its interests or rights hereunder without Lender’s prior written consent. Each Lender reserves the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, such Lender’s rights and benefits under each of the Loan Documents; provided, that (a) any assignee shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent and (b) no Lender may assign any of its interest under the Loan Documents to any Person set forth on Schedule 6.4(a) (each such Person, a “Prohibited Assignee”) or any Affiliate of a Prohibited Assignee; provided, however, that if the Assignment and Assumption includes a representation from the proposed assignee that such assignee is not an Affiliate of a Prohibited Assignee, the applicable Lender shall be entitled to rely on such representation for purposes of this Section 6.4(a). From time to time, the Borrower may supplement Schedule 6.4(a) subject to the prior consent of the Agent which will not be unreasonably, withheld or delayed. In connection therewith, any Lender may disclose all documents and information which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire relating to any credit subject hereto, Borrower or its business, any guarantor hereunder or the business of such guarantor, if any, or any collateral required hereunder so long as such potential transferee agrees to maintain such information confidentially pursuant to terms substantially similar to the confidentiality provisions hereof. In connection with any assignment, the applicable Lender and its assignee shall deliver to Agent an Assignment and Assumption in form reasonably acceptable to Agent specifying the amount of the Term Loans and/or Commitment assigned. The Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in Section 6.2 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Term Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence of the terms stated therein, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Term Loans and any Term Notes evidencing such Term Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of the Term Loans, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Term Loan evidenced by a Term Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Term Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Assumption; thereupon one or more new Term Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Agent and Lenders agree to maintain all non-public information relating to the Borrower, Limited Guarantor, Property Manager and their respective businesses confidential; provided, that all such information may be disclosed to Agent’s and Lender’s respective affiliates, officers, directors, agents and advisors who are involved in the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and as required by applicable law or regulation,

28



including to any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or authority asserting jurisdiction over Agent or a Lender.
b.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 the Loan Documents (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, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit 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 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 Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
Section 6.5    Entire Agreement; Amendment.
(a)    This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement between Borrower, Agent and Lenders with respect to the Term Loans and the other transactions contemplated hereby and supersede all prior negotiations, communications, discussions and correspondence concerning the subject matter hereof.
(b)    No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by Borrower or Limited Guarantor therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Borrower or the Borrower, Pledgor or Limited Guarantor, as the case may be, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:
(i)    extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 5.2) without the written consent of such Lender or extend the date on which the Commitments expire;
(ii)    as to any Lender, postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any scheduled payment (including the Loan Maturity Date) of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the written consent of such Lender;
(iii)    as to any Lender, reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Term Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of such Lender, without the written consent of such Lender entitled to

29



such amount; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest at the Default Rate;
(iv)    change Section 1.1(i) or Section 1.1(k) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or the application of proceeds required thereby without the written consent of each Lender;
(v)    change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders,” or any other provision hereof or of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;
(vi)    except as expressly permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, release, or limit the liability of, Borrower or Limited Guarantor without the written consent of each Lender;
(vii)    release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the this Agreement or any other Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender; or
(viii)    except as expressly permitted herein or in any other Loan Document, subordinate the Obligations hereunder or the Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, to any other Indebtedness or Lien, as the case may be without the written consent of each Lender;
and, provided further, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent in addition to Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
Section 6.6    No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person other than an Indemnitee as specified in Section 6.17 shall be a third party beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any other of the Loan Documents to which it is not a party.
Section 6.7    Time. Time is of the essence of each and every provision of this Agreement and each other of the Loan Documents.
Section 6.8    Severability of Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this Agreement.
Section 6.9    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

30



Section 6.10    Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

Annex II

AGENT

1. Appointment and Authority. Each of Lenders (in its capacity as a Lender), hereby irrevocably appoints American Money Management Corporation to act on its behalf as the administrative agent and collateral agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof or thereof (including, without limitation, acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of Borrower or Limited Guarantor to secure any of the Obligations), together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and neither Borrower nor Limited Guarantor or any Subsidiary thereof shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Each Lender hereby directs Agent to execute and deliver the other Loan Documents to be executed by Agent on the Closing Date and consents to the terms and conditions thereof.

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

3. Exculpatory Provisions. Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) 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 Loan Documents that Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Law; and







(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or Limited Guarantor or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Agent shall not be liable to any Lender or Borrower for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to Agent by Borrower, Limited Guarantor or a Lender. In the event that Agent obtains such actual knowledge or receives such a notice, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each of Lenders. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders. Unless and until Agent shall have received such direction, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Agent and Lenders. In no event shall Agent be required to comply with any such directions to the extent that Agent believes that its compliance with such directions would be unlawful or contrary to the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents.

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 Loan 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 set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Loan Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Agent.
4. Reliance by Agent. 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, but not limited to, 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. 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 Term Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to


Annex II - 2 -



the making of such Term Loan. Agent may consult with legal counsel, 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.
5. Delegation of Duties. Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Agent. 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.
6. Resignation of Agent. Agent may at any time give written notice of its resignation to Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank or other financial institution or investment manager with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank or other financial institution or investment manager with an office in the United States and which shall, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such appointment, be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders (and accepted by the Borrower in accordance with the terms above) and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of Lenders appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if Agent shall notify the Borrower and Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by Agent on behalf of Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Annex and Section 6.17 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent hereunder.
7. Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without


Annex II - 3 -



reliance upon Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates 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 Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as provided in paragraph 11 of this Annex II, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of Borrower or Limited Guarantor that may come into the possession of Agent.
8. Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or any other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or Limited Guarantor, Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or Limited Guarantor) shall be entitled and empowered, 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 the Term Loans and all other 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 Lenders and Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders and Agent under Section 6.17) 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 Lender to make such payments to Agent and, if Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent under Section 6.17.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment compromise or composition or proposal affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
9. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Lenders irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Obligations, (ii) that is disposed of or to be disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders.
Upon request by Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, pursuant to this paragraph 9 of this Annex II. In each case as specified in this paragraph 9, Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to Borrower such documents as Borrower may reasonably request to evidence the release of such

item of Collateral from the assignment and Lien granted under the Security Documents in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this paragraph 9.

(a) agrees to furnish Agent (at such frequency as Agent may reasonably request) with a summary of all Obligations (other than principal of or interest on the Term Loans) due or to become due to such Lender and in connection with any distributions to be made hereunder and Agent shall be entitled to assume that no amounts are due to any Lender on account of such Obligations unless Agent has received written notice thereof from such Lender and if such notice is received, Agent shall be entitled to assume that the only amounts due to such Lender on account of such Obligations is the amount set forth in such notice;
(b) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish, and Agent agrees to furnish, such Lender, promptly after they become available, copies of all financial statements required to be delivered by the Borrower hereunder and all examinations and appraisals of the Collateral received by Agent (collectively, the “Reports”);
(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report;
(d) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Borrower and Limited Guarantor and will rely significantly upon the Borrower and Limited Guarantor’s books and records, as well as on representations of the Borrower and Limited Guarantor’s personnel;
(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any Term Loan that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a Term Loan or Term Loans; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including attorney costs) incurred by Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.
12. Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints Agent as agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other Law of the United States can be perfected only by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall


Annex II - 5 -



notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
13. Indemnification of Agent. Without limiting the obligations of Borrower hereunder, Lenders shall indemnify Agent and any of its Affiliates, as the case may be ratably according to their Term Loan Applicable Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent and their Affiliates in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent and their Affiliates in connection therewith; 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 Agent’s and their Affiliates’ gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
14. Relation among Lenders. Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender.
