(a)The Issuer hereby covenants and agrees with the Indenture Trustee that so long as any of the Series 2021-1 Debt Securities remain outstanding, it shall not consent to a release, assignment or sale of its interest in the Series 2021-1 Collateral other than in accordance with the Series 2021-1 Agreements, unless (i) the Class A Noteholders have consented thereto pursuant to an Extraordinary Resolution, and (ii) the Class B Noteholders have consented thereto pursuant to an Extraordinary Resolution.

(b)If it is determined, based on the calculations by the Servicer for any Weekly Report to be delivered on each Weekly Reporting Date, that a Class A Pool Balance Deficiency or Class B Pool Balance Deficiency has occurred in respect of the corresponding Weekly Reporting Period: (i) the Servicer will on behalf of the Issuer notify the Seller that the Issuer is offering to purchase and the Seller may, at its sole discretion, by close of business on the Weekly Reporting Date sell to the Issuer or designate to the relevant

Series of Debt Obligations, as the case may be and in accordance with the procedures for selling or designating Obligor Account Assets pursuant to the Receivables Sale and Servicing Agreement, additional Obligor Account Assets in respect of specified Series 2021-1 Eligible Obligor Accounts in a sufficient amount such that, after giving effect to such sale or designation of Obligor Account Assets in additional Series 2021-1 Eligible Obligor Accounts, the Class A Pool Balance Deficiency or Class B Pool Balance Deficiency is cured by the Issuer; and (ii) the Issuer and the Seller will notify the Series 2021-1 Noteholders of such Class A Pool Balance Deficiency and/or Class B Pool Balance Deficiency (A) in the case of any Weekly Reporting Period during which a Settlement Date falls, promptly upon determination thereof and (B) in any other case, in the Weekly Report delivered on the related Weekly Reporting Date.

1.7Series 2021-1 Agreements and Structuring Agent

(a)Each of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Seller and the Initial Servicer acknowledge and agree that the Structuring Agent may enforce directly, without joinder of the Issuer, the rights of the Issuer under the Receivables Sale and Servicing Agreement and any Series 2021-1 Sale and Servicing Supplement thereto and any Sale and Servicing Québec Assignment, in each case with respect to the Series 2021-1 Assets, in the circumstances set forth below.

The Structuring Agent shall exercise its rights under this Agreement and any other Series 2021-1 Agreement with the consent or direction of all Class A Noteholders, if there are two (2) or less Class A Noteholders, or Class A Noteholders holding at least 66 2/3% of the Series 2021-1 Balance on Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities, if there are more than two (2) Class A Noteholders.

for the avoidance of doubt, the Structuring Agent rights and discretions under this Agreement and any other Series 2021-1 Agreement shall be exercised subject to Article 6.

(b)Each of the Issuer, the General Partner, the Seller and the Initial Servicer agrees that it will not agree to any amendment or waiver of any provision of, or assign any of its rights under, or provide any consent under any Series 2021-1 Agreement without the consent in writing of each Series 2021-1 Noteholder.

Such agreed upon procedures report, which shall relate to the Series 2021-1 Loans, shall be provided on or before March 31 of each year; provided that the initial agreed upon procedures report following the Closing Date shall be provided within 120 days from the Closing Date and; provided however, that after the occurrence of a the Servicer Termination Event and for so long as a the Servicer Termination Event shall be continuing, a Series 2021-1 Noteholder may request the Seller and the Servicer to furnish to the Series 2021-1 Noteholders, at the expense of the Seller and the Servicer, up to three (3) such additional agreed upon procedures reports per year based on the agreed upon procedures attached hereto as Schedule B, subject to any changes and/or additional agreed upon procedures, as shall be requested by a Series 2021-1 Noteholder, acting reasonably.

1.1Class B Intercreditor Provisions

(a)The Class B Noteholder shall have the right to purchase (i) all, but not less than all, of the Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities from the Class A Noteholders, upon the occurrence of a Related Event of Default (including any Related Event of Default or Servicer Termination Event that has been waived by the Class A Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee acting on a direction from the Class A Noteholders), at a purchase price sufficient to pay the Class A Noteholders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, and (ii) the Series 2021-1 Assets from the Issuer at a private sale, upon the occurrence of a Related Event of Default, at a price which is not less than the amount which is sufficient to allow the Issuer to pay the Class A Noteholders the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon. The Class A Noteholders shall not exercise their right under the Indenture to direct the Indenture Trustee with respect to any sale, assignment, granting of an option or options to purchase, contract to sell or other disposition of the Series 2021-1 Collateral, or any part thereof, in one or more portions at public or private sale or sales, until five (5) Business Days have passed since the occurrence of the Related Event of Default (or such later time as may be acceptable to the Class A Noteholders) and the Class B Noteholder has not entered into a legally binding agreement to purchase all of the Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities or Series 2021-1 Assets as provided in this Section 6.1 providing that the consummation of the purchase of the Series 2021-1 Class A Debt Securities or Series 2021-1 Assets shall occur within ten (10) Business Days following the occurrence of the Related Event of Default (or such later time as may be acceptable to the Class A Noteholders).

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision of the Series 2021-1 Agreements to the contrary, the Class B Noteholder shall have the sole right, in its sole discretion, to waive any Amortization Event or Related Event of Default related solely to a failure of the Issuer to make any payment of principal or interest due on the Series 2021-1 Class B Debt Securities and any purported waiver of any such Amortization Event or Related Event of Default by the Class A Noteholders shall be void.

(c)The appointment of (i) a Replacement Servicer (other than the Backup Servicer or Vervent Inc.) with respect to the Series 2021-1 Assets, or (ii) a successor Backup Servicer under the Backup Servicing Agreement shall each be subject to approval of the Class B Noteholder. Additionally, any Interest Rate Hedging Agreements entered into shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Class B Noteholder, acting reasonably.

(d)Any party to this Agreement that delivers a notice to the Class A Noteholders pursuant to any of the Series 2021-1 Agreements shall also as soon as reasonably practicable deliver a copy of such notice to the Class B Noteholder and, in the case of any notices received by the Structuring Agent pursuant to any of the Series 2021-1 Agreements from any Person that is not party to this Agreement, the Structuring Agent shall as soon as reasonably practicable deliver a copy of such notices to the Class B Noteholder. The Class A Noteholders shall as soon as reasonably practicable deliver a copy of any notice it delivers to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Seller pursuant to any of the Series 2021-1 Agreements to the Class B Noteholder.

(e)If any amendment to any Series 2021-1 Agreement or any consent to any action or waiver of any provision of a Series 2021-1 Agreement that requires the consent of the Series 2021-1 Noteholders or a resolution of the Series 2021-1 Noteholders (including an Extraordinary Resolution) could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Class B Noteholder, such amendment, waiver or consent shall be subject to the consent of the Class B Noteholder.
