(2)the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders in consultation with the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated or bilateral credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

"Benchmark Replacement Adjustment" means, with respect to any replacement of the then current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable interest period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement:

(b)the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such interest period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and
(2)for purposes of clause (2) of the definition of "Benchmark Replacement," the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders in consultation with the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for
45
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143

"Benchmark Replacement Date" means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(2)in the case of clause (3) of the definition of "Benchmark Transition Event," the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein.
For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the "Benchmark Replacement Date" will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

(2)a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or
(3)a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer representative.
For the avoidance of doubt, a "Benchmark Transition Event" will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).
"Benchmark Unavailability Period" means the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in accordance with this Section 2.12 and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in accordance with this Section 2.12.

(c)Payment of Other Taxes. Each applicable Credit Party shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes of such Credit Party.

(f)Status of Lenders.
(i)If a Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, a Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.14(f)(ii)(A), 2.14(f)(ii)(B)(I) through (V) and 2.14(f)(ii)(C) below) shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding tax; and

(IV) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such beneficial owner;
(V) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; and
(VI) to the extent legally entitled to do so, executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(C) If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document 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 the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably
52
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (C), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
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 promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.14(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.14(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.14(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h)Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Facility, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document and the resignation or replacement of any Agent.
2.15.Obligation to Mitigate.
(a) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after an officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Sections 2.13 or 2.14, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions through a Lender Affiliate, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate if, as a result thereof, the
53
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.14 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of its Revolving Commitments or Loans through such Lender Affiliate, or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect its Revolving Commitments or Loans or the interests of the Borrower or such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize a Lender Affiliate, pursuant to this Section 2.15 unless the Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such Lender Affiliate as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
2.16.Determination of Borrowing Base
The Borrowing Base at any time shall be determined by reference to the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate and Monthly Servicing Report delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower (or the Servicer on its behalf) and certified by an authorized officer of the Borrower.
2.17.Cure of Borrowing Base Deficiency
With respect to any Borrowing Base Deficiency resulting solely from the reduction of the Maximum Advance Rate following the occurrence of a Tier 1 Collateral Performance Trigger or Tier 2 Collateral Performance Trigger, the Borrower may, within thirty (30) days of the date on which the Maximum Advance Rate was reduced, pledge additional Eligible Receivables to the Collateral Agent and/or prepay the Loans in an aggregate amount up to the amount necessary to cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, within any such thirty (30) day period provided for in the foregoing, the related Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist for all purposes of this Agreement until such Borrowing Base Deficiency is cured. In connection with any prepayment of the Loans made in order to cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency, the Company may make a corresponding capital contribution to the Borrower by depositing an amount equal to such Borrowing Base Deficiency into the Disbursement Account for distribution in accordance with Section 2.10 hereof.
2.18.Increases in Maximum Commitment Amount
(a)At any time during the Revolving Commitment Period, Borrower may request, in writing delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, one (1) increase in the Maximum Committed Amount in an aggregate amount equal to $100,000,000 resulting in an aggregate Maximum Committed Amount equal to $250,000,000 after giving effect to such increase, which increase, unless otherwise agreed to by Required Lenders at its sole option, shall only be provided increasing the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders party to this Agreement immediately prior to such increase, provided, that, unless waived by the Required Lenders, in its sole discretion, the effectiveness of such increase shall be subject to satisfaction of all conditions set forth in Section 2.18(b).

The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in accordance with a written request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, email or other electronic method of transmission, telephone message, statement, communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower or Lenders), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of a Lender. No Agent shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance

of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the books or properties of the Borrower or the books or records or properties of any of the Borrower's Affiliates. No Agent shall (a) 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 Credit Document that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders, (b) be required to use, risk or advance its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or the exercise of any of its rights and powers hereunder, (c) be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law, (d) be responsible for or have any duty to monitor the performance or any action of the Borrower, or any of its directors, members, officers, agents, affiliates or employees, nor shall it have any liability in connection with the malfeasance or nonfeasance by such parties, or (e) be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, any act or provision or any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority; acts of God; earthquakes; fires; floods; wars; terrorism; civil or military disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; pandemics; riots; interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communications service; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or other wire or communication facility. In no event shall an Agent be liable, directly or indirectly, for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages, even if such Agent has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action. No Agent shall have any obligation to file or record any financing statements (including continuation statements), notices, instruments, documents, agreements, consents or other papers as shall be necessary to (i) create, preserve, perfect or validate any security interest granted to such Agent pursuant to any Credit Document or (ii) enable such Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under any Credit Document. In addition, no Agent shall have any responsibility or liability (i) in connection with the acts or omissions of any Person in respect of the foregoing or (ii) for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any security interest created in the Collateral or the perfection and priority of such security interest. Whenever reference is made in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by an Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or remedies to be made (or not to be made) by an Agent (except for the Administrative Agent's ability to waive the fee set forth in Section 9.6(d) or in connection with an Agent's ability to enter into any amendment to any Credit Document to which it is a party when such amendment affects the rights and obligations of such Agent, each of which shall be made in such Agent's sole discretion), it is understood that in all cases that such Agent shall not have any duty to act, and shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action, if it has not received written instruction, advice or concurrence from the Required Lenders in respect of such action. In connection with any Credit Document to which it is a party, each Agent shall be afforded all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it herein, as if such rights, protections, immunities and indemnities were

No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to such Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which such Agent has actual knowledge, unless such Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or applicable Credit Document and describing the existence of such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Such Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which such Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and the Agents of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any.
8.6. Collateral Documents
Each Lender hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of such Lender, to be the agent for and representative of such Lender with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral Documents. Subject to Section 9.5, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may, without further written consent or authorization from any Lender, execute any documents or instruments necessary to release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted hereby or to which the Lenders or the Administrative Agent has otherwise consented.
8.7.Lenders' Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgments
(a)Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower in connection with Loans hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower.  No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lender or to provide such Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to a Lender.
(b)Each Lender, by funding a Loan, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent any Lender, as applicable on the Closing Date or any Credit Date.
8.8.Reserved.
8.9.Right to Indemnity
Each Lender, in proportion to its pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of all Lenders, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, their Affiliates and
98
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


their respective officers, partners, directors, trustees, employees and agents of each Agent (each, an "Indemnitee Agent Party"), to the extent that such Indemnitee Agent Party shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower (for the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders’ obligations to Agent under this Section 8.9 shall not be conditioned on Agent seeking or receiving indemnification from Borrower for any indemnification claims arising pursuant to the Letter Agreement), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitee Agent Party in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents in accordance with the provisions of such Credit Documents; provided, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Indemnitee Agent Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  If any indemnity furnished to any Indemnitee Agent Party for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Indemnitee Agent Party, be insufficient or become impaired, such Indemnitee Agent Party may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, fee, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender's pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of all Lenders; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Indemnitee Agent Party against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, fee, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. Each Lender's obligations under this Section 8.9 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Facility, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document and the resignation or replacement of any Agent.
8.10.Resignation of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent
    Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days' prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such notice of resignation, the Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be; provided, that the Borrower's consent shall not be required at any time an Event of Default is continuing.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights (other than any rights of reimbursement for any costs, expenses, indemnities or other amounts due and owing to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, prior to the resignation thereof), powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the
99
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


performance of the duties of the successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under the Credit Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent of the Liens created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  After any retiring Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 8.10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder. If no successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, or been approved by the Lenders and the Borrower as applicable, by the date which is 30 days following the Administrative Agent's or Collateral Agent's notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent's resignation may nevertheless become effective and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all duties and obligations as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under all Credit Documents, and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, thereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as provided above. Any organization or entity into which an Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which an Agent shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of an Agent, shall be the successor of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder and any other Credit Document to which such Agent is a party, without the execution or filing of any document or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto or thereto.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 9.6, as of the "Effective Date" specified in the applicable Assignment Agreement: (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of an "Agent" or a "Lender" hereunder to the extent such rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement and shall thereafter be a party hereto and an "Agent" or a "Lender" for all purposes hereof, (ii) the assigning Agent or Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned thereby pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof under Section 9.8) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Agent's or assigning Lender's rights and obligations hereunder, such assigning Agent or assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Agent or assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder), (iii) if applicable, the Revolving Commitments shall be modified to reflect the Revolving Commitment of such assignee and any Revolving Commitment of such assigning Lender, if any, and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Borrower for cancellation, and thereupon the Borrower shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Revolving Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender.

110
LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent that would: (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant's participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that an increase in any Revolving Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant's participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) result in the assignment or transfer by the Borrower or the Company of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating, (iv) otherwise be required of any Lender under Sections 9.5(a)(ii) or 9.5(a)(iii) hereof, (v) waive or declare an Event of Default hereunder, (vi) result in any material change to the Eligibility Criteria, or (vii) result in an adverse regulatory impact on any such participant. Each Credit Party agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13 and 2.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 9.6; provided, (i) a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.13 and 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation, (ii) a participant that would be a Non-US Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless such participant complies with Section 2.14(f) and (g) as though it were a Lender (by providing any documentation required thereby to the participating Lender). To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.4 as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding any participation made hereunder (i) such selling Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such selling Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Borrower for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and (iii) except as set forth above, the Credit Parties, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such selling Lender in connection with such selling Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such selling Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Credit Parties relating to the Obligations and to approve, without the consent of or consultation with any participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, if the Borrower is provided notice of the sale of the participation to such participant, then during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the participant (to the extent of its interest in any Loans) shall have the right to exercise any remedies hereunder and vote any claims with respect to the Borrower or the Loans in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar type of proceeding of the Borrower. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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 participation (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 Revolving Commitments, Loans, or in any of its other Obligations) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolving Commitment, Loan, or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury

LEGAL 4873-0998-8490v4881-9719-6460v.143


Regulations or to the extent reasonably necessary for Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA. 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 and subject to the Letter Agreement, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(i)Certain Other Assignments. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section 9.6, each Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, such Lender, as between the Borrower and such Lender, shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge, and provided further, in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee be considered to be a "Lender" or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder. Each of the Borrower and the Company agrees that it shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent with respect to any such assignment, pledge or granting of a security interest, and shall provide the applicable assignee, lender or secured party (either directly or through distribution to the Administrative Agent), as applicable, access to their respective books, records, financial statements, policies, directors, officers and employees, other documents or other information, in each case, as requested by such assignee, lender or secured party, as applicable. Each of the Borrower and the Company agrees that the Lender and the Administrative Agent shall have the right to disclose the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to any assignee, lender or secured party; provided, however, that each such party shall agree to comply with requirements substantially similar to those set forth in Section 9.22 with respect to any Confidential Information provided thereto. None of the Borrower, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be responsible to pay or bear any costs or expenses in connection with this Section 9.6(i).
(j)Costs and Expenses. Anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement notwithstanding, neither the Borrower nor any Affiliate thereof shall be responsible to pay or bear any costs or expenses in connection with any assignment, participation, pledge or grant of security interest contemplated in this Section 9.6.
9.7.Independence of Covenants
All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

9.9.No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative
No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent and each Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.
9.10.Marshalling; Payments Set Aside
Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of a Lender), or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.
9.11.Severability
In case any provision or obligation hereunder or any Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

9.16.Usury Savings Clause
Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the lesser of (a) the amount of interest which would have been paid if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (b) the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender's option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
9.17.Counterparts
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic image scan transmission (e.g., "PDF" or "tif" via email) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.
9.18.Effectiveness
This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto.

The Backup Servicer (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if it is then acting as Successor Servicer), the Collection Account Bank and the Disbursement Account Bank shall be express third party beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 2.10.
9.22.Confidentiality
(a)Unless required by law or regulation to do so or otherwise expressly permitted by the Credit Documents, none of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, on the one hand, nor any Credit Party, on the other hand, shall publish or otherwise disclose any information relating to the material terms of the Facility, any of the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (collectively, "Confidential Information") to any Person. No party shall publish any press release naming the other party without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the requirements of any applicable privacy laws, each party may disclose the Confidential Information (a) to any of their respective Affiliates and to their and their respective Affiliates' officers, directors, managers, administrators, trustees, employees, agents, accountants, legal counsel and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (b) to the extent required by applicable law, regulation, subpoena or other legal process, (c) to the extent requested by any governmental or regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such party (including any self-regulatory authority), (d) to Standard & Poor's, Moody's or any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization in connection with the rating of this Facility pursuant to Section 5.12, (e) to any other party involved in the Facility, (f) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (g) pursuant to Section 5.10, (h) with the consent of the other

parties, (i) to any equity investors or institutional creditors or potential equity investors or institutional creditors of such party and/or its Affiliates, or (j) to the extent that such information (i) was or becomes available to such party from a source other than a party hereto other than as a result of a breach under Section 9.22, (ii) has been independently acquired or developed by any such party without violating any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.22; provided, however, that in the case of any disclosure of information which includes, directly or indirectly, the identity of any Obligor, the Person disclosing such information shall provide to the Servicer and the Borrower not less than ten (10) Business Days' prior notice of such disclosure. This confidentiality agreement shall apply to any and all information relating to the Facility, any of the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby at any time on or after the date hereof.
(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto (and each of their employees, representatives and other agents) may disclose to any Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to either party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure; provided that this Section 9.22(b) does not authorize any party hereto (or any of its employees, representatives or other agents) to disclose any information that is not necessary to understanding the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction contemplated by the this Agreement or that does not relate directly to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (including, if applicable, the identity of the parties hereto and any information that could reasonably lead another to determine the identity of the parties hereto), or to the extent it is reasonably necessary to keep any such information confidential in order to comply with any federal or state securities law. This Section 9.22(b) is intended to make certain that this Agreement does not cause any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to constitute "confidential transactions" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.6011-4(b)(3), 301.6111-2(c), 301.6111-3(b)(2)(ii)(B) and any similar applicable state or local law in effect as of the date hereof, and it shall be construed accordingly.
(c)Receivables Files may include Confidential Information that also meets the definition of non‑public personally identifiable information ("NPI") regarding an Obligor as defined by Title V of the Gramm‑Leach‑Bliley Act of 1999 and implementing regulations including the Federal Trade Commission's Rule Regarding Privacy of Consumer Financial Information  (16 C.F.R. Part 313) (collectively, the "GLB Act"). To the extent that the Agents or the Lenders have access to NPI through Receivables Files or from any other source, the Agents and the Lenders agree that such information will not be disclosed or made available to any third party, agent or employee for any reason whatsoever, other than with respect to: (1) such Person's authorized employees or agents on a "need to know" basis in order for such Person to perform its obligations or enforce its rights under the Credit Documents, provided that such representatives are subject to a confidentiality agreement which shall be consistent with and no less restrictive than the provisions of this Section 9.22; and (2) as required by applicable laws or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or the GLB Act regarding 'Privacy' of NPI, either during the term of this Agreement or after the termination of this Agreement, provided that, prior to any disclosure

Each Lender hereby covenants and agrees that, to the extent that any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief Laws (a "Bankruptcy Action") is instituted or commenced against any Credit Party (other than the Borrower) as debtor (the "Debtor"), if such Lender is a creditor of the Debtor, such Lender shall not seek or consent to the consolidation of the Borrower with the Debtor with respect to such Bankruptcy Action.
9.24.ERISA
(a)Each Lender represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Credit Party that with respect to each Loan, either (i) no portion of such Loan shall be funded or held with the "plan assets" of any "benefit plan investor" within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA ("Plan Assets") or (ii) if such Loan is funded or held with Plan Assets, then an investment manager with respect to such Plan Assets qualifies, and is acting, as a QPAM with respect to such Plan Assets, and all conditions of the QPAM Exemption have been satisfied with respect to such Loan.
(b)The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that, with respect to any "employee benefit plan" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA (other than such a plan that is maintained by Borrower or an "affiliate" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section VI(c) of the QPAM Exemption for the benefit of its own employees), neither Borrower nor any "affiliate" of the Borrower within the meaning of Section VI(c) of the QPAM Exemption has the authority to appoint or terminate any person as a QPAM or to negotiate the terms of a QPAM's management agreement with a plan.
(c)Each Lender that funds all or any part of a Loan with Plan Assets (x) acknowledges and agrees that none of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates involved in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has undertaken or is undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions covered by this Agreement or any Credit Document with respect to such Lender, and (y) represents and warrants from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and each Credit Party, that:
(i)the Person making the investment decision on behalf of such Lender (the "Plan Fiduciary") with respect to the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans and this Agreement is independent (within the meaning of Department of Labor

(ii)the Plan Fiduciary is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(v)the Plan Fiduciary has been fairly informed by the Credit Parties of the existence and nature of the financial interests of the Credit Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Credit Documents; and
(vi)none of the Credit Parties or their Affiliates has exercised any authority to cause such Lender to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to negotiate the terms in this Agreement with such Lender.
