Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of the earlier of (i) any acceleration of the maturity of Advances pursuant to Section 13.2 and (ii) the end of the Revolving Period, the Borrower shall request an Advance in the amount of the Aggregate Unfunded Amount minus the amount already on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account. Following receipt of such Advance Request, the Lenders shall fund such requested amount by transferring such amount directly to the Collateral Agent to be deposited into the Unfunded Exposure Account, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including, without limitation, the Borrower’s failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2).

Section 2.3    Notes. The Borrower shall, upon request of any Lender Group, on or after such Lender Group becomes a party hereto (whether on the Effective Date or by assignment or otherwise), execute and deliver a Note evidencing the Advances of such Lender Group. Each such Note shall be payable to the Agent for such Lender Group in a face amount equal to the applicable Lender Group’s Commitment as of the Effective Date or the effective date on which such Lender Group becomes a party hereto, as applicable. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Agent to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid attached to the Notes (or on any continuation of such grid, or at the option of such Agent, in its records), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of the outstanding principal of the Advances evidenced thereby and each payment of principal thereon. Such notations shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the subject matter thereof absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the Obligations or any payment thereon.

Section 2.4    Repayment and Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall repay the Advances outstanding (i) on each Distribution Date to the extent required to be paid hereunder and funds are available therefor pursuant to Section 8.3 and (ii) in full on the Facility Termination Date.

(b)    Prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Borrower may, from time to time, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Advance using Principal Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Account or other funds available to the Borrower on such date; provided, that

(i)    all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior written notice to the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Collateral Agent and each Agent) by 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to such voluntary prepayment, which notice (herein called the “Prepayment Notice”) shall be in the form of Exhibit C-4 and shall include (among other things) the proposed date of such prepayment and the amount and allocation of such prepayment;

-61-

(ii)    all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000; and

(iii)    each prepayment shall be applied on the Business Day received by the Facility Agent if received by 3:00 p.m., New York City time (or if received thereafter, such prepayment shall be applied on the following Business Day), on such day as Amount Available constituting Principal Collections pursuant to Section 8.3(a) as if (x) the date of such prepayment were a Distribution Date and (y) such prepayment occurred during the Collection Period to which such Distribution Date relates.

Each such prepayment shall be subject to the payment of any amounts required by Section 2.5(b) (if any) resulting from a prepayment or payment.

Section 2.5    Permanent Reduction of Facility Amount. (a) The Borrower may at any time (x) during the Revolving Period if an Extension Request has been rejected by any Lender or (y) after the end of the Revolving Period, in each case upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Facility Agent and each Agent, permanently reduce the Facility Amount (i) in whole or in part upon payment in full (in accordance with Section 2.4) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances or (ii) in part by any pro rata amount that the Facility Amount exceeds the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances (after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment thereof). In connection with any permanent reduction of the Facility Amount under this Section 2.5(a), the Commitment of each Committed Lender shall automatically, and without any further action by any party, be reduced pro rata with all other Committed Lenders such that the sum of all Commitments will equal the newly reduced Facility Amount.

(b)    As a condition precedent to any permanent reduction of the Facility Amount pursuant to Section 2.5(a), the Borrower shall pay to the Facility Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders, any applicable Reduction Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Reduction Fee or other prepayment fee or premium shall be due in respect of any prepayment or permanent reduction of the Facility Amount occurring (i) during the continuation of a Non-Approval Event, (ii) after the Lenders have declined a request for extension of the Revolving Period under Section 2.6 on substantially the same terms as already set forth herein and for a period of at least 12 months, (iii) following acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 13.2, (iv) after the 24-month anniversary of the Effective Date or (v) after the Facility Agent has declined a request to or otherwise does not increase the Facility Amount in accordance with clause (i) of Section 2.8.

Section 2.6    Extension of Revolving Period. The Borrower may, at any time after the first anniversary of the Effective Date and prior to the date that is 45 days prior to the last date of the Revolving Period, deliver a written notice to each Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent) requesting an extension of the Revolving Period for an additional twelve months (each qualifying request, an “Extension Request”). Each Lender may approve or decline an Extension Request in its sole discretion; provided, that the Lenders shall respond to an Extension Request in writing not later than 30 days following receipt of such Extension Request, and if any Lender does not respond

-62-

in writing by the end of such 30 day period it shall be deemed to have denied such Extension Request. No request by the Borrower to extend the Revolving Period shall be considered an “Extension Request” if such request is conditioned on an amendment to any other provision of the Transaction Documents.

Section 2.7    Calculation of Discount Factor.

(a)    In connection with the purchase of each Collateral Obligation and prior to such Collateral Obligation being purchased by the Borrower and included in the Collateral, the Facility Agent will assign (in its sole discretion) a Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation, which Discount Factor shall remain effective for such Collateral Obligation except as provided in clause (b) below; provided that each Specified First Lien Loan and Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan will have an initial Discount Factor equal to 100%.

(b)    If, but only if, a Revaluation Event occurs with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Discount Factor of such Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Facility Agent, in its sole discretion; provided that if a Revaluation Event occurs as a result of a 1.00x increase in the Leverage Multiple for any Collateral Obligation (other than a Multiple of Recurring Revenue Loan) (and the then-current Leverage Multiple is less than 2.00x higher than the Original Leverage Multiple), the Facility Agent may elect to decrease the Discount Factor by up to a percentage equal to (x) 1.0 minus (y)(A) the Original Leverage Multiple divided by (B) the then-current Leverage Multiple of such Collateral Obligation; provided, further that following the occurrence of any other Revaluation Event including another 1.00x increase in the Leverage Multiple (after the occurrence of the first Revaluation Event as described above), the Facility Agent in its sole discretion shall determine the Discount Factor of the applicable Collateral Obligation; provided, further that, so long as (i) the then-current Leverage Multiple with respect to the Collateral Obligation subject to such Revaluation Event is less than 2.00x higher than the related Original Leverage Multiple, (ii) such Collateral Obligation was not previously subject to a Revaluation Event or (iii) such Collateral Obligation is not a Multiple of Recurring Revenue Loan, the Services Provider may dispute the Discount Factor determined by the Facility Agent and at the expense of the Borrower elect to retain an Approved Valuation Firm to determine the Discount Factor in accordance with the Valuation Standard no later than sixty (60) days after the date of such initial determination by the Facility (any such determination not to exceed the lesser of (x) the Purchase Price paid by the Borrower for such Collateral Obligation and (y) the outstanding Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation); provided, further, that if the Facility Agent disputes the determination of the Discount Factor by such Approved Valuation Firm, the Facility Agent may at the expense of the Borrower elect to retain a different Approved Valuation Firm to determine the Discount Factor in accordance with the Valuation Standard; provided, further, that any determination by any Approved Valuation Firm of the Discount Factor after a Revaluation Event shall be re-calculated every six (6) months after the date of such initial determination until the Services Provider provides written notice pursuant to Section 2.7(c) that such Revaluation Event is no longer continuing; provided further, that if a Revaluation Event pursuant to clause (o) of the definition thereof occurs, then (i) the Discount Factor of the applicable Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan may be amended to be the lower of (x) the Market Value of such Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan as of such date of determination and (y) the Purchase Price of such Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan and (ii) if, after giving effect to clause (i) above, the

-63-

applicable Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan has a Market Value that exceeds 90% for 30 consecutive days (as agreed between the Borrower and the Facility Agent), then the Borrower may request that the Facility Agent amend the Discount Factor of such Specified Broadly Syndicated Loan, which amendment shall be in the Facility Agent’s sole discretion; provided further, that if a Revaluation Event pursuant to clause (r) of the definition thereof occurs at a sale price that (i) exceeds 80.0% (expressed as a percentage of par), the Discount Factor of the applicable Collateral Obligation may be amended to be no less than the lower of (x) the sale price of the applicable portion of such Collateral Obligation and (y) the Purchase Price of such Collateral Obligation or (ii) does not exceed 80.0% (expressed as a percentage of par), the Discount Factor of the applicable Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Facility Agent in its sole discretion. If any additional Revaluation Event occurs with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Discount Factor of such Collateral Obligation may be amended by the Facility Agent, in its sole discretion, and the Services Provider may dispute such Discount Factor as set forth in the preceding sentence (any such determination not to exceed the lesser of (x) the Purchase Price paid by the Borrower for such Collateral Obligation and (y) the outstanding Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation). In the event more than one Discount Factor has been determined by Approved Valuation Firms for any Collateral Obligation in accordance with this clause (b), the Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation shall be recalculated by the Facility Agent as average of the valuations provided by the Approved Valuation Firms (such determination not to exceed the lesser of (x) the Purchase Price paid by the Borrower for such Collateral Obligation and (y) the outstanding Principal Balance of such Collateral Obligation). To the extent the Services Provider has actual knowledge (after reasonable inquiry) or has received notice of any Revaluation Event with respect to any Collateral Obligation, the Services Provider shall give prompt notice thereof to the Facility Agent (but, in any event, not later than two Business Days after it receives notice or gains actual knowledge thereof). Notwithstanding anything above to the contrary, the Services Provider shall not dispute a Revaluation Event if such Revaluation Event is caused by the applicable Collateral Obligation becoming a Defaulted Collateral Obligation.

(c)    If the circumstances with respect to any Collateral Obligation change, the Services Provider may provide written notice of such changed circumstance to the Facility Agent, and if no Revaluation Event shall then be continuing for such Collateral Obligation, the Facility Agent shall in its sole discretion re-evaluate the Discount Factor for such Collateral Obligation.

(d)    No revised Discount Factor determined pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be effective until the Facility Agent has provided written notice of such revised Discount Factor to the Borrower, the Services Provider, each Agent and the Collateral Agent.

Section 2.8    Increase in Facility Amount. The Borrower may, with the prior written consent of the Facility Agent (which consent may be conditioned on one or more conditions precedent in its sole discretion), (i) request an increase of the Facility Amount to $1,500,000,000, to be effected by increasing the Commitment of the existing Lender Groups (pro rata, unless otherwise approved by the Facility Agent) and/or adding additional Lender Groups, (ii) add additional Lender Groups and/or (iii) increase the Commitment of any Lender Group, in each case which shall increase the Facility Amount by the amount of the Commitment of each such existing or additional Lender Group. Any new Lender Group shall execute a Joinder Agreement (with a

-64-

copy to the Collateral Agent and the Services Provider); provided that if DBNY, after giving effect to the Joinder Agreement of any Lender Group, has a Commitment that constitutes less than 25% of the Facility Amount, then the Borrower shall consent to such new Lender Group (which may occur by the Borrower’s execution of the related Joinder Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such increase shall be permitted without the prior written consent of DBNY if, after giving effect to any such increase, DBNY’s Commitment will be less than 25% of the Facility Amount.

Section 2.9    Defaulting Lenders.

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i)    any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Collateral Custodian for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Facility Agent and advised to the Collateral Custodian in writing as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Facility Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Facility Termination Event or Unmatured Facility Termination Event exists (except to the extent caused by such Defaulting Lender, as determined by the Borrower in its sole discretion)), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Services Provider, the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent; third, if so determined by the Facility Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund future Advances under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the other Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Facility Termination Event or Unmatured Facility Termination Event exists (except to the extent caused by such Defaulting Lender, as determined by the Facility Agent in its sole discretion), to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto; and

-65-

(ii)    for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Undrawn Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and under no circumstance shall the Borrower retroactively be or become required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(b)    If the Facility Agent and the Borrower determine in their respective sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Facility Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of Advances outstanding of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Facility Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.10    Borrowing Base Deficiency Payments. If, on any day prior to a Facility Termination Date (i) a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower may cure such Borrowing Base Deficiency (in whole or in part) by (x) pledging Specified BB Collateral Obligations (including by acquiring such Specified BB Collateral Obligation such that it becomes subject to the grant of security interest pursuant to Section 12.1) by (x) providing notice to the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent that it intends to pledge any Specified BB Collateral Obligations in order to cure a Borrower Base Deficiency and (y) delivering a Borrowing Base calculation to the Facility Agent that shows the addition of such Specified BB Collateral Obligation to the Borrowing Base; provided that the characteristics of such Specified BB Collateral Obligation (e.g., amount, Discount Factor, etc.) shall be as set forth in the related Asset Approval Notice or (ii) a Specified Limited Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower may also cure such Specified Limited Borrower Base Deficiency by pledging Specified Broadly Syndicated Loans or Specified First Lien Loans that, as of such date of determination, satisfy clauses (b) and (c) of the definition of Specified BB Collateral Obligation; provided that any such cure pursuant to this clause (ii) must cure the outstanding Specified Limited Borrowing Base Deficiency in full. The foregoing is without prejudice to the Borrower’s ability to otherwise cure a Borrowing Base Deficiency in whole or in part as permitted under this Agreement, including through receipt of a contribution (with or without an Equity Cure Notice) to its equity of cash, sale of assets or otherwise.

ARTICLE III

YIELD, UNDRAWN FEE, ETC.

Section 3.1    Yield and Undrawn Fee. (a) The Borrower hereby promises to pay, on the dates specified in Section 3.2, Yield on the outstanding amount of each Advance (or each portion thereof) for the period commencing on the applicable Advance Date until such Advance is paid in full. No provision of this Agreement or the Notes shall require the payment or permit the collection of Yield in excess of the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law.

-66-

(b)    The Borrower shall pay the Undrawn Fee on the dates specified in Section 3.2.

Section 3.2    Yield and Undrawn Fee Distribution Dates. Yield accrued on each Advance (including any previously accrued and unpaid Yield) and the Undrawn Fee (as applicable) shall be payable, without duplication:

(a)    on the Facility Termination Date;

(b)    on the date of any payment or prepayment, in whole or in part, of principal outstanding on such Advance; and

(c)    on each Distribution Date.

Section 3.3    Yield Calculation. The Advances shall bear interest on each day during each Accrual Period at a rate per annum equal to the product of (a) the Interest Rate for such Accrual Period multiplied by (b) the greater of (i) the outstanding amount of Advances on such day and (ii) the Minimum Utilization in effect on such day. All Yield shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such Yield is payable over a year comprised of 360 days.

Section 3.4    Computation of Yield, Fees, Etc. Each Agent (on behalf of its respective Lender Group) and the Facility Agent shall determine the applicable Yield and all Fees to be paid by the Borrower on each Distribution Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Collateral Agent thereof in writing no later than the Determination Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date. Such reporting may also include an accounting of any amounts due and payable pursuant to Sections 4.3 and 5.1.

PAYMENTS; TAXES

Section 4.1    Making of Payments. Subject to, and in accordance with, the provisions hereof and Section 2.4 or Section 8.3(a), as applicable, all payments of principal of or Yield on the Advances and other amounts due to the Lenders shall be made pursuant to Section 8.3(a) no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day when due in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds.

The respective Agent for each Lender Group shall allocate to the Lenders in its Lender Group each payment in respect of the Advances received by the respective Agent as provided by Section 8.3(a) or Section 2.4, as applicable. Payments in reduction of the principal amount of the Advances shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based on their respective portions of such Advances, or in any such case in such other proportions as each affected Lender may agree upon in writing from time to time with such Agent

-67-

and the Borrower. Payments of Yield and Undrawn Fee shall be allocated and applied to Lenders pro rata based upon the respective amounts of such Yield and Undrawn Fee due and payable to them.

Section 4.2    Due Date Extension. If any payment of principal or Yield with respect to any Advance falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next following Business Day, and additional Yield shall accrue and be payable for the period of such extension at the rate applicable to such Advance.

Section 4.3    Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable 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 Official Body in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.3) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Facility Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)    Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.3) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Facility Agent), or by the Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Facility Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Facility Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 15.9 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Facility Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Facility Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-68-

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Facility Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Facility Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Facility Agent under this Section 4.3(d).

(e)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to an Official Body pursuant to this Section 4.3, the Borrower shall deliver to the Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent.

(f)    Status of Lenders.

(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Facility 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 Section 4.3(f)(ii)(A), Section 4.3(f)(ii)(B) and Section 4.3(f)(ii)(D) 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 Facility 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 reasonable request of the Borrower or the Facility Agent) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Facility Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(I)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed

(II)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(III)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(IV)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Facility Agent) executed copies 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 Facility Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction 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

-70-

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 Facility Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility 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 the Borrower or the Facility Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Facility Agent to (x) comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or (y) determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “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 Facility 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 4.3 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.3), 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 4.3 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 Official Body 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 4.3(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Official Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.3(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 4.3(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 Section 4.3(g) 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 4.3 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Facility Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.

(i)    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 4.3, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

Section 7.10    Procedural Review of Collateral Obligations; Access to Services Provider and Services Provider’s Records. (a) Each of the Borrower and the Services Provider shall, at the Borrower’s expense, permit representatives of the Facility Agent at any time and from time to time as the Facility Agent shall reasonably request (A) to inspect and make copies of and abstracts from its records relating to the Collateral Obligations, and (B) to visit its properties in connection with the collection, processing or managing of the Collateral Obligations for the purpose of examining such records, and to discuss matters relating to the Collateral Obligations or such Person’s performance under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents with any officer or employee or auditor (if any) of such Person having knowledge of such matters. Each of the Borrower and the Services Provider agrees to render to the Facility Agent such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard to the foregoing; provided, that such assistance shall not interfere in any material respect with the Services Provider’s business and operations.

During the existence of an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or a Services Provider Event of Default, there shall be no limit on the timing or number of such inspections and no prior notice will be required before any inspection.

(b)    The Borrower and the Services Provider, as applicable, at the Borrower’s expense, shall provide to the Facility Agent access to the documentation evidencing the Collateral Obligations and all other documents regarding the Collateral Obligations included as part of the Collateral and the Related Security in each case, in its possession, in such cases where the Facility Agent is required in connection with the enforcement of the rights or interests of the Lenders, or by applicable statutes or regulations, to review such documentation, such access being afforded without charge but only (i) upon two Business Days’ prior written notice (so long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event or Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), (ii) during normal business hours and (iii) up to twice per calendar year (so long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event or Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing).

(c)    Nothing in this Section 7.10 shall derogate from the obligation of the Borrower and the Services Provider to observe any Applicable Law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Obligors, and the failure of the Services Provider to provide access as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 7.10.

-88-

-90-

(iv)    if such Optional Sale is to an Affiliate of the Borrower or the Services Provider, such Optional Sale is made on an arms-length basis at a price at least equal to the fair market value of the Collateral Obligation being sold and the Facility Agent has given its prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such Optional Sale is made at a price at least equal to (x) during the Revolving Period, the Collateral Obligation Amount of the Collateral Obligation being sold or (y) after the end of the Revolving Period, the outstanding principal amount of such Collateral Obligation (or at a price that is less than the outstanding principal amount of such Collateral Obligation but not less than the fair market value of such Collateral Obligation and the Borrower receives a contribution to capital from the Equityholder at least equal to the difference between such outstanding principal amount and such price); and

(c)    The Borrower hereby agrees to pay the reasonable and documented outside counsel legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Agent and each Lender in connection with any Optional Sale (including, but not limited to, expenses incurred in connection with the release of the Lien of the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral in connection with such Optional Sale).

(d)    In connection with any Optional Sale, the Collateral Agent shall, at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute such instruments of release with respect to the portion of the Collateral subject to such Optional Sale to the Borrower, in recordable form if necessary, as the Borrower, or the Services Provider on its behalf, may reasonably request.

Section 7.12    Repurchase or Substitution of Warranty Collateral Obligations.(a)    In the event of (x) a Repurchase Event or (y)(A) a breach of Section 9.5, Section 9.13 or Section 9.26 or (B) a material breach of any other representation, warranty, undertaking or covenant set forth in Section 7.4(k), Article IX, Article X, Section 18.3 or Section 18.5(b) with respect to a Collateral Obligation (or the Related Security and other related collateral constituting part of the Collateral related to such Collateral Obligation) (each such Collateral Obligation, a “Warranty Collateral Obligation”), no later than 30 days after the earlier of (x) knowledge of such breach on the part of the Equityholder or the Services Provider and (y) receipt by the Equityholder or the Services Provider of written notice thereof given by the Facility Agent (with a copy to each Agent), the Borrower shall either (a) repay Advances outstanding in an amount equal to the greater of (I) the aggregate Repurchase Amount or (II) the aggregate Collateral Obligation Amount of such Warranty Collateral Obligation(s) to which such breach relates on the terms and conditions set forth below

-91-

Section 7.13    Servicing of REO Assets. (a) If, in the reasonable business judgment of the Services Provider, it becomes necessary to convert any Collateral Obligation that is secured by real property into an REO Asset, the Services Provider shall first cause the Borrower to transfer and assign such Collateral Obligation (or the portion thereof owned by the Borrower) to a special purpose vehicle (the “REO Asset Owner”) using a contribution agreement reasonably acceptable to the Facility Agent. All equity interests of the REO Asset Owner acquired by the Borrower shall immediately become a part of the Collateral and be subject to the grant of a security interest under Section 12.1 and shall be promptly delivered to the Collateral Agent, each undated and duly indorsed in blank. The REO Asset Owner shall be formed and operated pursuant to organizational documents reasonably acceptable to the Facility Agent. After execution thereof, the Services Provider shall prevent the REO Asset Owner from agreeing to any amendment or other modification of the REO Asset Owner’s organizational documents without first obtaining the written consent of the Facility Agent. The Services Provider shall cause each REO Asset to be serviced (i) in accordance with Applicable Law, (ii) with reasonable care and diligence, (iii) in accordance with the applicable REO Asset Owner’s operating agreement, and (iv) in accordance with the Servicing Standard (collectively, the “REO Servicing Standard”). The Services Provider will cause all “Distributable Cash” (or comparable definition set forth in the REO Asset Owner’s organization documents) to be deposited into the Collection Account within two (2) Business Days of receipt thereof.

-92-

(b)    In the event that title to any Related Property is acquired on behalf of the REO Asset Owner for the benefit of its members in foreclosure, by deed in lieu of foreclosure or upon abandonment or reclamation from bankruptcy, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of a REO Asset Owner. The Services Provider shall cause the REO Asset Owner to manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Asset for its members solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.

(c)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Services Provider shall not (and shall not permit the REO Asset Owner to) obtain title to any Related Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, obtain title to any direct or indirect partnership interest in any Obligor pledged pursuant to a pledge agreement and thereby be the beneficial owner of Related Property, have a receiver of rents appointed with respect to, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, any Related Property if, as a result of any such action, the REO Asset Owner would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of, such Related Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable state or local Environmental Law, unless the Services Provider has previously determined in accordance with the REO Servicing Standard, based on an updated Phase I environmental assessment report generally prepared in accordance with the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Standard E 1527-05, as may be amended or, with respect to residential property, a property inspection and title report, that:

(i)    such Related Property is in compliance in all material respects with applicable Environmental Laws, and

(ii)    there are no circumstances present at such Related Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation would reasonably be expected to be required by the owner, occupier or operator of the Related Property under applicable federal, state or local law or regulation.

(d)    In the event that the Phase I or other environmental assessment first obtained by the Services Provider with respect to Related Property indicates that such Related Property may not be in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws or that Hazardous Materials may be present but does not definitively establish such fact, the Services Provider shall cause the Borrower to immediately sell the related Collateral Obligation in accordance with Section 7.11 to the extent permitted thereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

PLEDGED ACCOUNTS; PAYMENTS

Section 8.1    Pledged Accounts. (a) On or prior to the Effective Date, the Services Provider shall establish each Pledged Account in the name of the Borrower and each Pledged Account shall be a segregated, non-interest bearing trust account established with the Securities Intermediary, who shall forward funds from the Collection Account to the Collateral Agent for

-93-

application by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.3 and the applicable Monthly Report. If at any time a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent obtains actual knowledge that any Pledged Account ceases to be an Eligible Account (with notice to the Services Provider, the Facility Agent and each Agent), then the Services Provider shall transfer such account to another institution such that such account shall meet the requirements of an Eligible Account.

Except as set forth below, amounts on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account may be withdrawn by the Borrower or at the direction of the Services Provider (i) to fund any draw requests of the relevant Obligors under any Revolving Loan or a Delayed Drawdown Loan, or (ii) to make a deposit into the Collection Account as Principal Collections if, after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is equal to or greater than (i) prior to the end of the Revolving Period, the Aggregate Unfunded Equity Amount and (ii) after the Revolving Period, the Aggregate Unfunded Amount.

Following the Facility Termination Date, the Services Provider shall forward any draw request made by an Obligor under a Revolving Loan or a Delayed Drawdown Loan, along with wiring instructions for the applicable Obligor, to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent and each Agent) along with an instruction to the Collateral Agent to withdraw the applicable amount from the Unfunded Exposure Account and a certification that the conditions to fund such draw are satisfied, and the Collateral Agent shall fund such draw request in accordance with such instructions from the Services Provider.

Following the end of the Revolving Period, if the Borrower shall receive any Principal Collections from an Obligor with respect to a Revolving Loan included in the Collateral and, as of the date of such receipt (and after taking into account such repayment), the aggregate amount on deposit in the Unfunded Exposure Account is less than the Aggregate Unfunded Amount (the amount of such shortfall, in each case, the “Unfunded Exposure Shortfall”), the Services Provider shall direct the Collateral Agent to and the Collateral Agent shall deposit into the Unfunded Exposure Account an amount of such Principal Collections equal to the lesser of (a) the aggregate amount of such Principal Collections and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Shortfall.

(b)    All amounts held in any Pledged Account shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be invested by the Collateral Agent, as directed by the Services Provider in writing (or, if the Services Provider fails to provide such direction, such amounts shall remain uninvested), in Permitted Investments that mature (i) with respect to the Collection Account, not later than one Business Day prior to the Distribution Date for the Collection Period to which such amounts relate and (ii) with respect to the Unfunded Exposure Account, on the immediately following Business Day. Any such written direction shall certify that any such investment is authorized by this Section 8.1. Investments in Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Securities Intermediary, and, except as specifically required below, such investments shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. If any amounts are needed for disbursement from the Collection Account and sufficient uninvested funds are not available therein to make such disbursement, the Collateral Agent shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such account to make such disbursement in accordance with and upon the written direction of the Services Provider or, if the Services Provider shall fail to give such direction, the Facility Agent. The Collateral

-94-

Agent shall, upon written request, provide the Facility Agent with all information in its possession regarding transfer into and out of the Collection Account (including, but not limited to, the identity of the counterparty making or receiving such transfer). In no event shall the Collateral Agent be liable for the selection of any investments or any losses in connection therewith, or for any failure of the Services Provider or the Facility Agent, as applicable, to timely provide investment instructions or disposition instructions, as applicable, to the Collateral Agent. To the extent agreed to by the Borrower or the Services Provider or the Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates shall be permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Collateral Agent’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments, and (iii) effecting transactions in certain investments.

COVENANTS

From the date hereof until the first day following the Facility Termination Date on which all Obligations shall have been finally and fully paid and performed (other than as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement), the Borrower hereby covenants and agrees with the Lenders, the Agents and the Facility Agent that:

Section 10.1    Protection of Security Interest of the Secured Parties. (a) At or prior to the Effective Date, the Borrower shall have filed or caused to be filed a UCC-1 financing statement, naming the Borrower as debtor, naming the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as secured party and describing the Collateral, with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. From time to time thereafter, the Borrower shall file (and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to so file) such financing statements and cause to be filed such continuation statements, all in such manner and in such places as may be required by Applicable Law fully to preserve, maintain and protect the interest of the Collateral Agent in favor of the Secured Parties under this Agreement in the Collateral and in the proceeds thereof. The Borrower shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Collateral Agent file-stamped copies of, or filing receipts for, any document filed as provided above, as soon as available following such filing. In the event that the Borrower fails to perform its obligations under this subsection, the Collateral Agent or the Facility Agent may (but shall have no obligation to) do so, in each case at the expense of the Borrower, however neither the Collateral Agent nor the Facility Agent shall have any liability in connection therewith.

(b)    The Borrower shall not change its name, jurisdiction, identity or corporate structure in any manner that would make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by the Borrower (or by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Borrower) in accordance with subsection (a) above seriously misleading or change its jurisdiction of organization, unless the Borrower shall have given the Facility Agent, each Agent and the Collateral Agent at least 30 days prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements (and shall provide a copy of such amendments to the Collateral Agent, each Agent and Facility Agent together with an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that all appropriate amendments or other documents in respect of previously filed statements have been filed).

(c)    The Borrower shall maintain its computer systems, if any, so that, from and after the time of the first Advance under this Agreement, the Borrower’s master computer records (including archives) that shall refer to the Collateral indicate clearly that such Collateral is subject to the first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Indication of the Collateral Agent’s (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) security interest shall be deleted from or modified on the Borrower’s computer systems when, and only when, the Collateral in question shall have been paid in full, the security interest under this Agreement has been released in accordance with its terms, upon such Collateral Obligation becoming a Repurchased Collateral Obligation or Substituted Collateral Obligation or otherwise as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

-108-

(d)    Without limiting any of the other provisions hereof, if at any time the Borrower shall propose to sell, grant a security interest in, or otherwise transfer any interest in loan receivables to any prospective lender or other transferee, the Borrower shall give to such prospective lender or other transferee computer tapes, records, or print-outs (including any restored from archives) that, if they shall refer in any manner whatsoever to any Collateral shall indicate clearly that such Collateral is subject to a first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

(b)    promptly, from time to time, such other information, documents, records or reports respecting the Collateral Obligations or the Related Security, the other Collateral or the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower as such Person may, from time to time, reasonably request;

(c)    promptly, in reasonable detail, of (i) any Adverse Claim known to it that is made or asserted against any of the Collateral, (ii) any Material Modification, (iii) any Revaluation Event known to it (after reasonable inquiry) and (iv) any Proceeding to the extent and as required by Section 10.24;

-112-

(b)    In the event that any Hedge Counterparty defaults in its obligation to make a payment to the Borrower under one or more Hedging Agreements on any date on which payments are due pursuant to a Hedging Agreement, the Borrower shall make a demand on such Hedge Counterparty, or any guarantor, if applicable, demanding payment by 12:30 p.m., New York City time, on such date. The Borrower shall give notice to each Agent upon the continuing failure by any Hedge Counterparty to perform its obligations during the two Business Days following a demand made by the Borrower on such Hedge Counterparty, and shall take such action with respect to such continuing failure as may be directed by the Facility Agent.

(c)    In the event that any Hedge Counterparty no longer maintains the ratings specified in the definition of “Hedge Counterparty,” then within 30 days after receiving notice of such decline in the creditworthiness of such Hedge Counterparty as determined by any Rating Agency, the Borrower shall provide the Hedge Counterparty notice of the potential termination event resulting from such downgrade and, if the Hedge Counterparty fails to cure such potential termination event within the time frame specified in the related Hedging Agreement, the Borrower shall, at the written direction of the Facility Agent, (i) provided that a Replacement Hedging Agreement or Qualified Substitute Arrangement meeting the requirements of Section 10.6(d) has been obtained, (A) provide written notice to such Hedge Counterparty (with a copy to the Collateral Agent and the Facility Agent) of its intention to terminate the applicable Hedging Agreement within the 30-day period following the expiration of the cure period set forth in the applicable Hedging Agreement and (B) terminate the applicable Hedging Agreement within such 30-day period, request the payment to it of all amounts due to the Borrower under the applicable Hedging Agreement through the termination date and deposit any such amounts so received, on the day of receipt, to the Collection Account, or (ii) establish any other arrangement (including an arrangement or arrangements in addition to or in substitution for any prior arrangement made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.6(c)) with the written consent (in its sole discretion) of the Facility Agent (a “Qualified Substitute Arrangement”); provided, that in the event at any time any alternative arrangement established pursuant to the above shall cease to be satisfactory to the Facility Agent, then the provisions of this Section 10.6(c), shall again be applied and in connection therewith the 30-day period referred to above shall commence on the date the Borrower receives notice of such cessation or termination, as the case may be.

(d)    Unless an alternative arrangement pursuant to Section 10.6(c) is being established, the Borrower shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Replacement Hedging Agreement or Qualified Substitute Arrangement meeting the requirements of this Section 10.6 during the 30-day period following the expiration of the cure period set forth in the applicable Hedging Agreement. The Borrower shall not terminate the Hedging Agreement unless, prior to the expiration of such 30-day period, the Borrower delivers to the Collateral Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent and each Agent) (i) a Replacement Hedging Agreement or Qualified Substitute Arrangement, (ii) to the extent applicable, an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent as to the due authorization, execution and delivery and validity and enforceability of such Replacement Hedging Agreement or Qualified Substitute Arrangement, as the case may be, and (iii) evidence that the Facility Agent has consented in writing to the termination of the applicable Hedging Agreement and its replacement with such Replacement Hedging Agreement or Qualified Substitute Arrangement.

The Borrower and, at the Borrower’s request, the Collateral Agent, upon receipt of the purchase price in the Collection Account shall execute all documentation necessary to release the Lien of the Collateral Agent on such Hedging Agreement and proceeds thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.6, the parties hereto agree that should the Borrower fail to observe or perform any of its obligations under this Section 10.6 with respect to any Hedging Agreement, the sole result will be that the Collateral Obligation or Collateral Obligations that are the subject of such Hedging Agreement shall immediately cease to be Eligible Collateral Obligations for all purposes under this Agreement.

No more than 50% of the debt obligations (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) held by the Borrower may at any time consist of real estate mortgages as determined for purposes Section 7701(i) of the Code

-114-

unless, based on written advice of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP, Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP or an opinion of other tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters, the ownership of such debt obligations will not cause the Borrower to be treated as a taxable mortgage pool for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

-116-

Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower authorizes the filing of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices as may be necessary or desirable or that the Collateral Agent (acting solely at the Facility Agent’s request) may reasonably request to protect and preserve the assignments and security interests granted by this Agreement.

-121-

or a Services Provider Event of Default or the Facility Agent, after the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event or a Services Provider Event of Default, in which event the Collateral Agent shall only vote, consent or take such other action in accordance with such instructions.

(c)    In addition to the above:

(i)    The Facility Agent and each Secured Party further authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In furtherance, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Secured Party hereby appoints the Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Facility Agent) as its agent to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action (at the written direction of the Facility Agent) that the Facility Agent deems necessary or desirable in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interests granted by the Borrower hereunder, or to enable any of them to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the execution or filing by the Collateral Agent as secured party/assignee of such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, relative to all or any of the Collateral Obligations now existing or hereafter arising, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate for the purposes stated hereinabove. Nothing in this Section 11.3(c)(i) shall be deemed to relieve the Borrower or the Services Provider of their respective obligations to protect the interest of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral, including to file financing and continuation statements in respect of the Collateral in accordance with Section 10.1. It is understood and agreed that any and all actions performed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this Section 11.3(c)(i) shall be at the written direction of the Facility Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility or liability in connection with determining any actions necessary or desirable to perfect, protect or more fully secure the security interest granted by the Borrower hereunder or to enable any Person to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights hereunder.

(ii)    The Facility Agent may direct the Collateral Agent in writing to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Collateral Agent hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the Facility Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder at the request of the Facility Agent, any Secured Parties or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the determination of the Collateral Agent, (x) shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Agent to liability hereunder or otherwise (unless it has received indemnity which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto). In the event the Collateral Agent requests the consent of the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Facility Agent within 10 Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Facility Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

(iii)    Except as expressly provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall not be under any duty or obligation to take any affirmative action to exercise or enforce any power,

(d)    If, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action, the Collateral Agent may request written instructions from the Facility Agent as to the course of action desired by it. If the Collateral Agent does not receive such instructions within two Business Days after it has requested them, the Collateral Agent may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking any such courses of action. The Collateral Agent shall act in accordance with instructions received after such two Business Day period except to the extent it has already, in good faith, taken or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with such instructions. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and independent accountants in performing its duties hereunder and shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if it acts in accordance with such advice.

(e)    Concurrently herewith, the Facility Agent directs the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent is authorized to enter into the Account Control Agreement and any other related agreements in the form delivered to the Collateral Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, all of the Collateral Agent’s rights, protections and immunities provided herein shall apply to the Collateral Agent for any actions taken or omitted to be taken under the Account Control Agreement and any other related agreements in such capacity.

Promptly after receipt of notice of the Collateral Agent’s resignation, the Facility Agent shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Agent by written instrument, in duplicate, copies of which instrument shall be delivered to the Borrower, the Services Provider, the resigning Collateral Agent and to the successor Collateral Agent. In the event no successor Collateral Agent shall have been appointed within 60 days after the giving of notice of such resignation, the Collateral Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. The Facility Agent upon at least 60 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, may with or without cause remove and discharge the Collateral Agent or any successor Collateral Agent thereafter appointed from the

-123-

performance of its duties under this Agreement. Promptly after giving notice of removal of the Collateral Agent, the Facility Agent shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Collateral Agent; provided that, so long as no Services Provider Event of Default or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing (x) any successor Collateral Agent so appointed by the Facility Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and (y) the Borrower’s consent shall be required in connection with the Facility Agent’s removal of the Collateral Agent without cause unless any litigation has commenced between the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent. Any such appointment shall be accomplished by written instrument and one original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent and the successor Collateral Agent, with a copy delivered to the Borrower and the Services Provider.

Section 11.6    No Adverse Interest of Collateral Agent. By execution of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent represents and warrants that it currently holds and during the existence of this Agreement shall hold, no adverse interest, by way of security or otherwise, in any Collateral Obligation or any document in the Collateral Obligation Files. Neither the Collateral Obligations nor any documents in the Collateral Obligation Files shall be subject to any security interest, lien or right of set-off by the Collateral Agent or any third party claiming through the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not pledge, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, dispose of, or otherwise grant any third party interest in, the Collateral Obligations or documents in the Collateral Obligation Files, except that the preceding clause shall not apply (i) to the Collateral Agent with respect to the Collateral Agent Fees and Expenses, (ii) to the Collateral Custodian with respect to the Collateral Custodian Fees and Expenses, and (iii) in the case of any accounts, with respect to (x) returned or charged-back items, (y) reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers, or (z) overdrafts in the Collection Account.

(c)    The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct, bad faith, reckless disregard or negligent performance or omission of its duties.

(g)    It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Agent is not guaranteeing performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral.

(h)    In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, the Collateral Agent may, prior to the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event, request instructions from the Services Provider and may, after the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event, request instructions from the Facility Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received written instructions from the Services Provider or the Facility Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Agent shall in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Facility Agent.

(k)    The Collateral Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any certificate, report or other document; provided, however, that, if the form thereof is prescribed by this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof.

The Facility Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably directed in writing by the Required Lenders, and each Agent shall take such action with respect to such event as shall be reasonably directed by Lenders in its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group; provided, that unless and until such Note Agent shall have received such directions, such Note Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such event as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders or of the Lenders in its Lender Group, as applicable.

Section 14.6    Non-Reliance on Note Agents. The Lenders expressly acknowledge that no Note Agent, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Note Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or the Services Provider, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Note Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Note Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Services Provider, and the Collateral Obligations and made its own decision to purchase its interest in the Notes hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Note Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under any of the Transaction Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Services Provider, and the Collateral Obligations. Except as expressly provided herein, no Note Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Collateral or the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Services Provider or the Lenders which may come into the possession of such Note Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

In no event shall any Note Agent be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if such Note Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. In no event shall such Note Agent be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 14.7    Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Facility Agent and its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Services Provider under the Transaction Documents, and without limiting the obligation of such Persons to do so in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents), ratably according to the outstanding amounts of their Advances (or their Commitments, if no Advances are outstanding) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Facility Agent or the affected Person in connection with any investigative, or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Facility Agent or such affected Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Facility Agent or

-140-

such affected Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under the Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 14.8    Successor Note Agent. If the Facility Agent shall resign as Facility Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor agent, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Facility Agent, and the term “Facility Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its acceptance of such appointment, and the former Facility Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Facility Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Facility Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. Any Agent may resign as Agent upon ten days’ notice to the Lenders in its Lender Group and the Facility Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) with such resignation becoming effective upon a successor agent succeeding to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent pursuant to this Section 14.8. If an Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement, then Lenders in its Lender Group holding greater than 50% of the outstanding Advances held by such Lender Group shall appoint a successor agent for such Lender Group. After any Note Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Note Agent under this Agreement. No resignation of any Note Agent shall become effective until a successor Note Agent shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of such Note Agent hereunder; provided, that in the event a successor Note Agent is not appointed within 60 days after such notice of its resignation is given as permitted by this Section 14.8, the applicable Note Agent may petition a court for its removal.

Section 14.9    Note Agents in their Individual Capacity. Each Note Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or the Services Provider as though such Note Agent were not an agent hereunder. Any Person which is a Note Agent may act as a Note Agent without regard to and without additional duties or liabilities arising from its role as such administrator or agent or arising from its acting in any such other capacity.

Section 14.10    Borrower Procedural Review. The Facility Agent shall, at the Borrower’s expense, retain Protiviti, Inc. (or another nationally recognized audit firm acceptable to the Facility Agent in its sole discretion) to conduct and complete a procedural review of the Collateral Obligations in compliance with the standards set forth on Exhibit B hereto (as such Exhibit B may be reasonably amended from time to time in the sole discretion of the Facility Agent by delivery of such amended Exhibit B by the Facility Agent to the Borrower), (i) within 180 days after the Effective Date and (ii) annually thereafter; provided that there shall be no limits on the Facility Agent’s right to conduct audits (at the Borrower’s expense) during the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default. The Facility Agent shall promptly forward the results of such audit to the Services Provider.

Section 14.11    Compliance with Applicable Anti-Bribery and Corruption, Anti-Terrorism and Anti-Money Laundering Regulations. In order to comply with Applicable Banking Law, the Facility Agent is required to obtain, verify, record and update certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Facility Agent. Accordingly, each of the parties agree to provide to the Facility Agent, upon its reasonable request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Facility Agent to comply with Applicable Banking Law.

ARTICLE XV

ASSIGNMENTS

Section 15.1    Restrictions on Assignments by the Borrower and the Services Provider. Except as specifically provided herein, neither the Borrower nor the Services Provider may assign any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent and the Required Lenders in their respective sole discretion and any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 15.1 shall be null and void.

Section 15.2    Documentation. In connection with any permitted assignment, each Lender shall deliver to each assignee an assignment, in such form as such Lender and the related assignee may agree, duly executed by such Lender assigning any such rights, obligations, Advance or Note to the assignee; and such Lender shall promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that the assignee may reasonably request, in order to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the assignee’s right, title and interest in and to the items assigned, and to enable the assignee to exercise or enforce any rights hereunder or under the Notes evidencing such Advance. In the case of an assignment of any Commitment (or any portion thereof) or any Advance (or any portion thereof) the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Services Provider, the Borrower, the Facility Agent and the Collateral Agent a fully executed Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto. If the assignee is not an existing Lender it shall deliver to the Facility Agent any tax forms and other information requested by the Facility Agent for purposes of conducting its customary “know your customer” inquiries. Each Lender represents to the Borrower and the Services Provider that it is, as of the date it became a Lender and on each date on which it remains a Lender, a qualified purchaser for purposes of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.

Section 15.3    Rights of Assignee. Upon the foreclosure of any assignment of any Advances made for security purposes, or upon any other assignment of any Advance from any Lender pursuant to this Article XV, the respective assignee receiving such assignment shall have all of the rights of such Lender hereunder with respect to such Advances and all references to the Lender or Lenders in Sections 4.3 or 5.1 shall be deemed to apply to such assignee.

Section 15.4    Assignment by Lenders. So long as no Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender may make any assignment, and no such assignment shall be permitted, without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent, if such assignment is to a Person other than a Competitor, shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) other than any proposed assignment (i) to an Affiliate of such Lender, (ii) to another Lender hereunder or (iii) if (x) such Lender makes a reasonable determination that its ownership of any of its rights or obligations hereunder (and under other similar facilities (if any) held by such Lender) is prohibited by the Volcker Rule and (y) to the extent such Lender is permitted by the applicable documentation, such Lender is making commercially reasonable efforts to assign its interest in other similar facilities in a manner similar

-142-

to such proposed assignment, to any Person other than a Competitor; provided that the Lenders shall not assign any interest in, or sell a participation in any Advance (or portion thereof) or its Commitment (or any portion thereof), to the Equityholder or any Affiliate thereof without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent in its sole discretion; provided, further that in the event that any Lender shall assign any interest in, or sell a participation in any Advance (or portion thereof) or its Commitment (or any portion thereof), to the Equityholder or any Affiliate thereof, then the Equityholder or such Affiliate thereof shall have no right to vote, consent or object to any requirements set forth in this Agreement and any Advances held by the Equityholder or such Affiliate thereof shall be deemed not outstanding for purposes of any such vote, consent or objection; provided further, that each Lender shall first offer to sell such interest(s) (i) to the Lender affiliated with the Facility Agent and, if such Lender does not accept such offer within 10 Business Day, then (ii) to each remaining Lender (pro rata) for a period of 10 Business Days prior to offering to any Person that is not an existing Lender. Each Lender shall endorse the Notes to reflect any assignments made pursuant to this Article XV or otherwise. The Lenders shall provide notice of any assignment by such Lender to the Borrower and the Services Provider.

Section 15.5    Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. (a) The Collateral Agent, acting solely for this purpose as agent for the Borrower (and, in such capacity, the “Loan Registrar”), shall maintain a register for the recordation of the name and address of each Lender (including any assignees), and the principal amounts (and stated interest) owing to such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Loan Register”). The entries in the Loan Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Facility Agent, each Agent and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Loan Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder. The Loan Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(b)    Each Person who has or who acquired an interest in a Note shall be deemed by such acquisition to have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 15.5. A Note may be exchanged (in accordance with Section 15.5(c)) and transferred to the holders (or their agents or nominees) of the Advances and to any assignee (in accordance with Section 15.1) (or its agent or nominee) of all or a portion of the Advances. The Loan Registrar shall not register (or cause to be registered) the transfer of such Note, unless the proposed transferee shall have delivered to the Loan Registrar either (i) an Opinion of Counsel that the transfer of such Note is exempt from registration or qualification under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and all applicable state securities laws and that the transfer does not constitute a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or (ii) an express agreement by the proposed transferee to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of this Section 15.5 and the restrictions noted on the face of such Note.

(c)    At the option of the holder thereof, a Note may be exchanged for one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like class and aggregate principal amount at an office or agency of the Borrower. Whenever any Note is so surrendered for exchange, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Loan Registrar) the new Note which the holder making the exchange is entitled to receive at the Loan Registrar’s office, located at 1776 Heritage Drive– Mail Stop: JAB0250, North Quincy, MA 02171.

-143-

(d)    Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at an office or agency of the Borrower, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Loan Registrar), in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like class and aggregate principal amount.

(e)    All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of any Note in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be the valid obligations of the Borrower, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement, as the Note(s) surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(f)    Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Borrower or the Loan Registrar) be fully endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Loan Registrar, duly executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

(g)    No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of a Note, but the Borrower may require payment from the transferee holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer of exchange of a Note.

(h)    The holders of the Notes shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 15.6    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. (a) If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Loan Registrar, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Loan Registrar) in exchange therefor a new Note of like class and tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

(b)    If there shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Loan Registrar prior to the payment of the Notes (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Borrower or the Loan Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver (through the Loan Registrar), in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like class, tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

(c)    Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 15.6, the Borrower may require the payment from the transferor holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith.

(d)    Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 15.6 and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Borrower, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

-144-

(e)    The provisions of this Section 15.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of a mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note.

Section 15.7    Persons Deemed Owners. The Borrower, the Services Provider, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and any agent for any of the foregoing may treat the holder of any Note as the owner of such Note for all purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note may be overdue, and none of Borrower, the Services Provider, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 15.8    Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment or registration of transfer or exchange shall be promptly canceled. The Borrower shall promptly cancel and deliver to the Loan Registrar any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Borrower may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Borrower. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided in this Section 15.8, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement.

Section 15.9    Participations; Pledge. (a) At any time and from time to time, each Lender may, in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time grant participations in all or a portion of its Note and/or its interest in the Advances and other payments due to it under this Agreement to any Person (each, a “Participant”) other than, unless an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a Competitor. Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) any such participation will not alter or affect such Lender’s direct obligations hereunder, and (B) none of the Borrower, the Services Provider, the Facility Agent, any Agent, any Lender, the Collateral Agent nor the Services Provider shall have any obligation to have any communication or relationship with any Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.3 and Section 5.1 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.3(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.3(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Article XV; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 17.16 as if it were an assignee under this Article XV; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent that such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any Applicable Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation with respect to a Participation; provided, that with respect to any greater payment under Section 5.1, such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive unless the Borrower has consented to such participation (unless an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case no such consent shall be required for any greater payment to be received). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 17.16(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 17.1 as though it were a Lender.

-145-

(b)    Notwithstanding anything in Section 15.9(a) to the contrary, each Lender may pledge its interest in the Advances and the Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral in accordance with Applicable Law without the prior written consent of any Person.

(c)    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 interest in the obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any obligations under any Transaction Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such 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 Facility Agent (in its capacity as Facility Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

Section 15.10    Reallocation of Advances. Any reallocation of Advances among Committed Lenders pursuant to an assignment executed by such Committed Lender and its assignee(s) and delivered pursuant to Article XV or pursuant to a Joinder Agreement executed and delivered pursuant to Article XV in each case shall be wired by the applicable purchasing Lender(s) to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the wiring instructions provided by the Collateral Agent; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not fund such wire until it has received an executed assignment agreement or Joinder Agreement, as applicable.

ARTICLE XVI

-146-

however, Indemnified Amounts payable to an Indemnified Party (a) to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party and (b) resulting from the performance of the Collateral Obligations. Indemnified Amounts shall not include any Taxes or Increased Costs, other than any Taxes that represent Indemnified Amounts arising from any non-Tax claim.

Indemnification under this Section 16.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Indemnified Party and shall include reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of litigation.

Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Services Provider agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Parties forthwith on demand, from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts incurred by such Indemnified Party resulting from (i) any act or omission constituting bad faith, fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence by the Services Provider in the performance of or reckless disregard of its duties hereunder or under any other Transaction Document or (ii) any material breach by the Services Provider of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Services Provider hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, excluding, however, Indemnified Amounts payable to an Indemnified Party (a) to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party and (b) resulting from the performance of the Collateral Obligations.

Indemnification under this Section 16.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of any Indemnified Party and shall include reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of counsel and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of litigation.

Section 16.3    Contribution. (a) If for any reason (other than the exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.1) the indemnification provided above in Section 16.1 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Borrower agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b)    If for any reason (other than the exclusions set forth in the first paragraph of Section 16.2) the indemnification provided above in Section 16.2 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Services Provider agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Services

Section 17.1    No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender, the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, any Indemnified Party or any Affected Person to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by any of them of any right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower during the existence of a Facility Termination Event, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by it to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower to the amounts owed by the Borrower under this Agreement, to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, any Affected Person, any Indemnified Party or any Lender or their respective successors and assigns.

Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be limited to the provisions specifically set forth therein for the period of time set forth therein and shall not be construed to be a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement.

EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT HAS RECEIVED FULL AND SUFFICIENT CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROVISION (AND EACH OTHER PROVISION OF EACH OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY) AND THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR ITS ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH SUCH OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

Section 17.11    No Proceedings.

(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of the Services Provider, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Agent, each Lender and the Facility Agent hereby agrees that it will not institute against the Borrower, or join any other Person in instituting against the Borrower, any insolvency proceeding (namely, any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Insolvency Event) so long as any Advances or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such Advances or other amounts shall be outstanding. The foregoing shall not limit such Person’s right to file any claim in or otherwise take any action with respect to any insolvency proceeding that was instituted by any Person other than such Person.

(b)    Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against any Conduit Lender, any insolvency proceeding (namely, any proceeding of the type referred to in the definition of Insolvency Event) so long as any commercial paper note issued by such applicable Conduit Lender shall be outstanding or there shall not have elapsed one year plus one day since the last day on which any such

-151-

(c)    The provisions of this Section 17.11 are a material inducement for the Secured Parties to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and are an essential term hereof. The parties hereby agree that monetary damages are not adequate for a breach of the provisions of this Section 17.11 and the Facility Agent may seek and obtain specific performance of such provisions (including injunctive relief), including, without limitation, in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, winding up, insolvency, moratorium, winding up or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under United States federal or state bankruptcy laws or any similar laws. The provisions of this Section 17.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 17.12    Limited Recourse. No recourse under any obligation, covenant or agreement of a Lender contained in this Agreement shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that this Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of each Lender, and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent of any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates (solely by virtue of such capacity) or any of them under or by reason of any of the obligations, covenants or agreements of a Lender contained in this Agreement, or implied therefrom, and that any and all personal liability for breaches by a Lender of any of such obligations, covenants or agreements, either at common law or at equity, or by statute, rule or regulation, of every such incorporator, stockholder, officer, director, member, manager, employee or agent is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in consideration for the execution of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge that the obligations of any Conduit Lender arising hereunder are limited recourse obligations payable solely from the unsecured assets of such Conduit Lender (the “Available Funds”) and, following the application of such Available Funds or the proceeds thereof, any claims of the parties hereto (and the obligations of such Conduit Lender) shall be extinguished. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing under this Agreement against any officer, member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of any Conduit Lender or its successors or assigns, and no action may be brought against any officer, member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of any Conduit Lender personally; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Persons from any liability they might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions taken or omissions made by them. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Each Conduit Lender shall only be required to pay (a) any fees or liabilities that it may incur under this Agreement only to the extent such Conduit Lender has Excess Funds on the date of such determination and (b) any expenses, indemnities or other liabilities that it may incur under

-152-

this Agreement or any fees, expenses, indemnities or other liabilities under any other Transaction Document only to the extent such Conduit Lender receives funds designated for such purposes or to the extent it has Excess Funds not required, after giving effect to all amounts on deposit in its commercial paper account, to pay or provide for the payment of all of its outstanding commercial paper notes as of the date of such determination. In addition, no amount owing by any Conduit Lender hereunder in excess of the liabilities that such Conduit Lender is required to pay in accordance with the preceding sentence shall constitute a “claim” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against such Conduit Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge that the obligations of the Borrower arising hereunder are limited recourse obligations payable solely from the Collateral and, following the application of such Collateral or the proceeds thereof, any claims of the parties hereto (and the obligations of the Borrower) shall be extinguished. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing under this Agreement against any officer, member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of the Borrower, the Services Provider, the Equityholder or its successors or assigns, and no action may be brought against any officer, member, director, employee, security holder or incorporator of such Person personally; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve any such Persons from any liability they might otherwise have as a result of fraudulent actions taken or omissions made by them.

Section 17.13    ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS EXECUTED AND DELIVERED HEREWITH REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO AND THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

Section 17.14    Confidentiality. (a) The Borrower, the Services Provider, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent shall hold in confidence, and not disclose to any Person, the identity of any Lender or the terms of any fees payable in connection with this Agreement except they may disclose such information (i) to their officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, accountants, auditors, advisors, prospective lenders, equity investors or representatives, (ii) with the consent of such Lender, (iii) to the extent such information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through such Person, or (iv) to the extent the Borrower, the Services Provider, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Agent or any Affiliate of any of them should be required by any law or regulation applicable to it (including securities laws) or requested by any Official Body to disclose such information.

(b)    The Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, each Agent and each Lender, severally and with respect to itself only, covenants and agrees that any information about the Borrower or its Affiliates or the Obligors, the Collateral Obligations, the Related Security or otherwise obtained by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall be held in confidence (it being understood that documents provided to the Facility Agent hereunder may in all cases be distributed by the Facility Agent to the Lenders and Agents) except that the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, such Agent or such Lender may disclose such information (i) to its

-153-

affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, accountants, auditors, advisors or representatives, (ii) to the extent such information has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by or through the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian, such Agent or such Lender, (iii) to the extent such information was available to the Facility Agent, such Agent or such Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the Facility Agent, such Agent or such Lender hereunder, (iv) with the consent of the Services Provider, (v) to the extent permitted by Article XV, or (vi) to the extent the Facility Agent, such Agent or such Lender should be (A) required in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding or (B) requested by any Official Body to disclose such information; provided, that in the case of clause (vi) above, the Facility Agent, such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to maintain confidentiality and will (unless otherwise prohibited by law) notify the Services Provider of its intention to make any such disclosure prior to making any such disclosure. For the avoidance of doubt, the Facility Agent shall not make any confidential information of the Borrower or the Services Provider available to prospective Lenders without the prior written approval of the Borrower or the Services Provider, as applicable.

Section 17.15    Non-Confidentiality of Tax Treatment. All parties hereto agree that each of them and each of their employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including, without limitation, opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. “Tax treatment” and “tax structure” shall have the same meaning as such terms have for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction as well as other information, the provisions of this Section 17.15 shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 17.16    Replacement of Lenders.

(a)    If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.1, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or Official Body for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.3, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking the Obligations or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)    At any time there is more than one Lender, the Borrower shall be permitted, at its sole expense and effort, to replace any Lender, except (i) the Facility Agent or (ii) any Lender which is administered by the Facility Agent or an Affiliate of the Facility Agent, that (a) requests reimbursement, payment or compensation for any amounts owing pursuant to

-154-

Section 4.3 or Section 5.1 or (b) has received a written notice from the Borrower of an impending change in law that would entitle such Lender to payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, unless such Lender designates a different lending office before such change in law becomes effective pursuant to Section 17.16(a) and such alternate lending office obviates the need for the Borrower to make payments of additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1 or (c) has not consented to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver, each pursuant to Section 17.2 or (d) becomes a Defaulting Lender; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall relieve a Lender from any liability it might have to the Borrower or to the other Lenders for its failure to make any Advance, (ii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Advances and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement and reallocation of such Advances between the replacement financial institution and such replaced Lender shall be made in accordance with Section 15.10, (iii) during the Revolving Period, the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent, (iv) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4(a), (v) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) for Increased Costs or Taxes, as the case may be, (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Facility Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (vii) if such replacement is being effected as a result of a Lender requesting compensation pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 5.1, such replacement, if effected, will result in a reduction in such compensation or payment thereafter. Notwithstanding anything contained to the contrary in this Agreement, no Lender removed or replaced under the provisions hereof shall have any right to receive any amounts set forth in Section 2.5(b) in connection with such removal or replacement. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 17.17    Consent to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court sitting in New York City in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents, and each party hereto hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent they may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

Section 17.18    Option to Acquire Rating. Each party hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Facility Agent (on behalf and at the expense of the requesting Lender) may, at any time and in its sole discretion, obtain a public rating for this Facility. The Borrower and the Services Provider hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts, at the request of the Facility Agent, to cooperate with the acquisition and maintenance of any such rating; provided, that neither the Borrower nor the Services Provider shall be obligated to enter into any amendment, supplement or modification to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document pursuant to this Section 17.18 unless it consents thereto in its sole discretion.

-155-

Section 17.19    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Transaction Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Transaction Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)    the application of any write-down and conversion powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)    the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; or

(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 17.20    Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that this Agreement provides support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that this Agreement and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of

-156-

the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

ARTICLE XVIII

COLLATERAL CUSTODIAN

Section 18.1    Designation of Collateral Custodian. The role of Collateral Custodian with respect to the Collateral Obligation Files shall be conducted by the Person designated as Collateral Custodian hereunder from time to time in accordance with this Section 18.1. Alter Domus (US) LLC is hereby appointed as, and hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties and obligations of, Collateral Custodian pursuant to the terms hereof.

Section 18.2    Duties of the Collateral Custodian.

(a)    Duties. The Collateral Custodian shall perform, on behalf of the Secured Parties, the following duties and obligations:

(i)    The Collateral Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Secured Parties, for these purposes, acknowledges that the Services Provider shall deliver, on or prior to the applicable Funding Date (but no more than three (3) Business Days after such Funding Date, except as set forth in Section 10.21), the Collateral Obligation Files delivered to it for each Collateral Obligation listed on the Schedule of Collateral Obligations attached to the related Asset Approval Request. The Collateral Custodian acknowledges that in connection with any Asset Approval Request, additional Collateral Obligation Files (specified on an accompanying Schedule of Collateral Obligations supplement) may be delivered to the Collateral Custodian from time to time, and that the Collateral Custodian will provide the Collateral Agent with all information necessary for the Collateral Agent to credit each Collateral Obligation File to the Collection Account in accordance with the terms hereof. Promptly upon the receipt of any such delivery of Collateral Obligation Files and without any review, the Collateral Custodian shall send notice of such receipt to the Services Provider, the Facility Agent and each Agent.

(ii)    With respect to each Collateral Obligation File which has been or will be delivered to the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Custodian is acting exclusively as the custodian of the Secured Parties, and has no instructions to hold any Collateral Obligation File for the benefit of any Person other than the Secured Parties and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In so taking and retaining custody of the Collateral Obligation Files, the Collateral Custodian shall be deemed to be acting for the

-157-

purpose of perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein under the UCC. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 18.5, no Collateral Obligation File or other document constituting a part of a Collateral Obligation File shall be released from the possession of the Collateral Custodian.

(iii)    The Collateral Custodian shall maintain continuous custody of all Collateral Obligation Files in its possession in secure facilities in accordance with customary standards for such custody and shall reflect in its records the interest of the Secured Parties therein. Each Collateral Obligation File which comes into the possession of the Collateral Agent (other than documents delivered electronically) shall be maintained in fire-resistant vaults or cabinets at the office of the Collateral Custodian specified in Annex A or at such other offices as shall be specified to the Facility Agent and the Services Provider in a written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. Each Collateral Obligation File shall be marked with an appropriate identifying label and maintained in such manner so as to permit retrieval and access by the Collateral Custodian and the Facility Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall keep the Collateral Obligation Files clearly segregated from any other documents or instruments in its files.

(iv)    With respect to the documents comprising each Collateral Obligation File, the Collateral Custodian shall (i) act exclusively as Collateral Custodian for the Secured Parties, (ii) hold all documents constituting such Collateral Obligation File received by it for the exclusive use and benefit of the Secured Parties and (iii) make disposition thereof only in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or with written instructions furnished by the Facility Agent; provided, that in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the written instructions of the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent’s written instructions shall control.

(v)    The Collateral Custodian shall accept only written instructions of an Executive Officer, in the case of the Borrower or the Services Provider, or a Responsible Officer, in the case of the Facility Agent, concerning the use, handling and disposition of the Collateral Obligation Files.

(vi)    In the event that (i) the Borrower, the Facility Agent, any Agent, the Services Provider, the Collateral Custodian or the Collateral Agent shall be served by a third party with any type of levy, attachment, writ or court order with respect to any Collateral Obligation File or a document included within a Collateral Obligation File or (ii) a third party shall institute any court proceeding by which any Collateral Obligation File or a document included within a Collateral Obligation File shall be required to be delivered other than in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the party receiving such service shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the other parties to this Agreement (to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law) copies of all court papers, orders, documents and other materials concerning such proceedings. The Collateral Custodian shall, to the extent permitted by law, continue to hold and maintain all the Collateral Obligation Files that are the subject of such proceedings pending a final, nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction permitting or directing disposition thereof. Upon final determination of such court, the Collateral Custodian shall dispose of such Collateral Obligation File or a document included within such Collateral Obligation File as directed by the Facility Agent in writing, which shall give a direction consistent with such determination. Expenses of the Collateral Custodian incurred as a result of such proceedings shall be borne by the Borrower.

-158-

(vii)    The Facility Agent may direct the Collateral Custodian in writing to take any such incidental action hereunder. With respect to other actions which are incidental to the actions specifically delegated to the Collateral Custodian hereunder, the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to take any such incidental action hereunder, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting) upon the direction of the Facility Agent; provided that the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to take any action hereunder at the request of the Facility Agent, any Secured Parties or otherwise if the taking of such action, in the reasonable determination of the Collateral Custodian, (x) shall be in violation of any Applicable Law or contrary to any provisions of this Agreement or (y) shall expose the Collateral Custodian to liability hereunder or otherwise (unless it has received indemnity which it reasonably deems to be satisfactory with respect thereto). In the event the Collateral Custodian requests the consent of the Facility Agent and the Collateral Custodian does not receive a consent (either positive or negative) from the Facility Agent within ten (10) Business Days of its receipt of such request, then the Facility Agent shall be deemed to have declined to consent to the relevant action.

(viii)    The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in accordance with the request or direction of any Secured Party, to the extent that this Agreement provides such Secured Party the right to so direct the Collateral Custodian, or the Facility Agent. The Collateral Custodian shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or Services Provider Event of Default unless the Collateral Custodian has received written notice from the Facility Agent, Services Provider or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such event and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Facility Termination Event,” “Notice of Unmatured Facility Termination Event,” “Notice of Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default,” or “Notice of Services Provider Event of Default,” as applicable. In the absence of receipt of such notice, the Collateral Custodian may conclusively assume that there is no Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Facility Termination Event, Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or Services Provider Event of Default, in each case unless it has actual knowledge of any such occurrence.

(b)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, the Collateral Custodian shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any party hereto or any Secured Party in its capacity as such, and no implied covenants, functions, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Custodian. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is hereby expressly agreed and stipulated by the other parties hereto that the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to exercise any discretion hereunder and shall have no investment or management responsibility. The Collateral Custodian shall not be deemed to assume any obligations or liabilities of the Borrower, Facility Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.

Section 18.3    Delivery of Collateral Obligation Files. (a) In connection with each delivery of a Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian, the Borrower shall represent, warrant and agree that the Collateral Obligation Files delivered to the Collateral Custodian shall include all of the documents listed in the related Document Checklist and all of such documents and the information contained in the Schedule of Collateral Obligations are complete in all material respects and correct pursuant to a certification in the form of Exhibit H executed by or on behalf of the Borrower.

-159-

(b)    Reserved.

(c)    With respect to any documents comprising the Collateral Obligation File that have been delivered or are being delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned to the Borrower or the Services Provider in time to permit their delivery hereunder at the time required, in lieu of delivering such original documents, the Borrower or the Services Provider shall indicate such on a Schedule of Collateral Obligations supplement and deliver to the Collateral Custodian a true copy thereof. The Borrower or the Services Provider shall deliver such original documents to the Collateral Custodian promptly when they are received.

Section 18.4    Collateral Obligation File Certification. (a) On or prior to each Funding Date, the Services Provider shall provide a Schedule of Collateral Obligations and related Document Checklist dated as of such Funding Date to the Collateral Custodian, the Collateral Agent, the Facility Agent and each Agent (such information contained on the Schedule of Collateral Obligations shall also be delivered in Microsoft Excel format or another format reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Custodian) with respect to the Collateral Obligations to be delivered to the Collateral Agent on such Funding Date.

(b)    In connection with (and as a part of) each Monthly Report, with respect to the Collateral Obligation Files delivered at least three (3) Business Days’ prior to the related Reporting Date, the Collateral Custodian shall prepare a report (to be included as a part of each Monthly Report) in respect of each of the Collateral Obligations, to the effect that, as to each Collateral Obligation listed on the Schedule of Collateral Obligations attached to the related Advance Request or Reinvestment Request, based on the Collateral Custodian’s examination of the Collateral Obligation File for each Collateral Obligation and the related Document Checklist, except for variances from the documents identified in the Document Checklist with respect to the related Collateral Obligation Files (“Exceptions”), (i) all documents required to be delivered in respect of such Collateral Obligations pursuant to the Document Checklist have been delivered and are in the possession of the Collateral Custodian as part of the Collateral Obligation File for such Collateral Obligation (other than those released pursuant to Section 18.5), and (ii) all such documents have been reviewed by the Collateral Custodian and appear on their face to relate to such Collateral Obligation. The Collateral Custodian shall also maintain records of the total number of Collateral Obligation Files that do not have the documents provided on the Document Checklist and will include such total in each Monthly Report. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Collateral Custodian’s obligation to review all documents required to be delivered in respect of Collateral Obligations pursuant to a Document Checklist shall be limited to reviewing such documents based on the information provided on the Document Checklist.

(c)    Notwithstanding any language to the contrary herein, the Collateral Custodian shall make no representations as to, and shall not be responsible to verify, (i) the validity, legality, ownership, title, perfection, priority, enforceability, due authorization, recordability, sufficiency for any purpose, or genuineness of any of the documents contained in each Collateral Obligation File or (ii) the collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any such Collateral Obligation.

Section 18.5    Release of Collateral Obligation Files. (a) Upon satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 12.3, the Services Provider will provide an Officer’s Certificate to such effect to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Collateral Agent) and shall request in writing delivery to it of the Collateral Obligation File and a copy thereof shall be sent concurrently by the Services Provider to the Facility Agent and each Agent. Upon receipt of such certification and request, unless it receives notice to the contrary from the Facility Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall within three Business Days (or such other time as may be agreed to by the Services Provider) release the related Collateral Obligation File to the Services Provider and the Services Provider will not be required to return the related Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian.

(b)    From time to time and as appropriate for the management or foreclosure of any of the Collateral Obligations, including, for this purpose, collection under any insurance policy relating to the Collateral Obligations, the Collateral Custodian shall, upon receipt of a Request for Release and Receipt substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 from an authorized representative of the Services Provider (as listed on Exhibit F-1, as such exhibit may be amended from time to time by the Services Provider with notice to the Collateral Custodian, the Facility Agent and each Agent), release the related Collateral Obligation File or the documents set forth in such Request for Release and Receipt to the Services Provider. In the event an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or a Services Provider Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall not permit the Services Provider to make any such request with respect to any original documents unless the Facility Agent shall have consented in writing thereto (which consent may be evidenced by an executed counterpart to such request). The Services Provider shall return each and every original document previously requested from the Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian when the need therefor by the Services Provider no longer exists unless (x) the Collateral Obligation File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Related Security either judicially or non-judicially, and (y) the Services Provider has delivered to the Collateral Custodian a certificate executed by an Executive Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Collateral Obligation File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery, in which case the Services Provider shall complete such return as soon as possible. Upon receipt of a certificate of the Services Provider substantially in the form of Exhibit F-3, with a copy to the Facility Agent and each Agent, stating that such Collateral Obligation was either (x) liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited have been so deposited, or (y) sold pursuant to an Optional Sale in accordance with Section 7.11, the Collateral Custodian shall within three (3) Business Days release the Request for Release and Receipt to the Services Provider, or, in connection with an Optional Sale, the requested Collateral Obligation File, and the Services Provider will not be required to return the related Collateral Obligation File to the Collateral Custodian.

-161-

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Services Provider shall not, without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent, request any documents (other than copies thereof) held by the Collateral Custodian if the sum of the unpaid Principal Balances of all Collateral Obligations for which the Services Provider is then in possession of the related Collateral Obligation File or any document comprising such Collateral Obligation File (other than for Collateral Obligations then held by the Services Provider which have been sold, repurchased, paid off or liquidated in accordance with this Agreement) (including the documents to be requested) exceeds 5% of the Adjusted Aggregate Eligible Collateral Obligation Balance. The Services Provider may hold, and hereby acknowledges that it shall hold, any documents and all other property included in the Collateral that it may from time to time receive hereunder as custodian for the Secured Parties solely at the will of the Collateral Custodian and the Secured Parties for the sole purpose of facilitating the management of the Collateral Obligations and such retention and possession shall be in a custodial capacity only. To the extent the Services Provider, as agent of the Collateral Custodian and the Borrower, holds any Collateral, the Services Provider shall do so in accordance with the Servicing Standard as such standard applies to services providers acting as custodial agent. The Services Provider shall promptly report to the Collateral Custodian and the Facility Agent the loss by it of all or part of any Collateral Obligation File previously provided to it by the Collateral Custodian and shall promptly take appropriate action to remedy any such loss. The Services Provider shall hold (in accordance with Section 9-313(C) of the UCC) all documents comprising the Collateral Obligation Files in its possession as agent of the Collateral Agent. In such custodial capacity, the Services Provider shall have and perform the following powers and duties:

(i)    hold the Collateral Obligation Files and any document comprising a Collateral Obligation File that it may from time to time receive hereunder from the Collateral Custodian for the benefit of the Collateral Custodian, on behalf of the Secured Parties, maintain accurate records pertaining to each Collateral Obligation to enable it to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and maintain a current inventory thereof;

(ii)    implement policies and procedures consistent with the requirements of this Agreement so that the integrity and physical possession of such Collateral Obligation Files will be maintained; and

(iii)    take all other actions, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, in connection with maintaining custody of such Collateral Obligation Files on behalf of the Collateral Agent.

Acting as custodian of the Collateral Obligation Files pursuant to this Section 18.5, the Services Provider agrees that it does not and will not have or assert any beneficial ownership interest in the Collateral Obligations or the Collateral Obligation Files.

Section 18.6    Examination of Collateral Obligation Files. Upon reasonable prior written notice to the Collateral Custodian, the Borrower, the Services Provider and their agents, accountants, attorneys and auditors will be permitted during normal business hours to examine and make copies of the Collateral Obligation Files, documents, records and other papers in the possession of or under the control of the Collateral Custodian relating to any or all of the Collateral

-162-

Obligations. Prior to the occurrence of an Unmatured Facility Termination Event, a Facility Termination Event, an Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default or a Services Provider Event of Default, upon the request of the Facility Agent and at the cost and expense of the Borrower, the Collateral Custodian shall promptly provide the Facility Agent with the Collateral Obligation Files or copies, as designated by the Facility Agent, subject to any applicable cap on costs and expenses, the Collateral Custodian shall promptly provide the Facility Agent with the Collateral Obligation Files or copies, as designated by the Facility Agent; provided, the Collateral Custodian shall not be required to provide such copies if it does not receive adequate assurance of payment.

Section 18.7    Lost Note Affidavit. In the event that the Collateral Custodian fails to produce any original promissory note delivered to it related to a Collateral Obligation that was in its possession pursuant to Section 10.21 within five (5) Business Days after required or requested by the Facility Agent and provided that (a) the Collateral Custodian previously certified in writing to the Facility Agent that it had received such original promissory note and (b) such original promissory note is not outstanding pursuant to a Request for Release and Receipt, then the Collateral Custodian shall with respect to any missing original promissory note, promptly deliver to the Facility Agent upon request a lost note affidavit.

Section 18.8    Transmission of Collateral Obligation Files. Written instructions as to the method of shipment and shipper(s) the Collateral Custodian is directed to utilize in connection with the transmission of Collateral Obligation Files in the performance of the Collateral Custodian’s duties hereunder shall be delivered by the Borrower or the Services Provider to the Collateral Custodian prior to any shipment of any Collateral Obligation Files hereunder. In the event the Collateral Custodian does not receive such written instruction from the Borrower or the Services Provider, the Collateral Custodian shall be authorized and indemnified as provided herein to utilize a nationally recognized courier service. The Services Provider shall arrange for the provision of such services at its sole cost and expense (or, at the Collateral Custodian’s option, reimburse the Collateral Custodian for all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Custodian consistent with such instructions) and shall maintain such insurance against loss or damage to the Collateral Obligation Files as the Services Provider deems appropriate.

Section 18.9    Merger or Consolidation. Any Person (i) into which the Collateral Custodian may be merged or consolidated, (ii) that may result from any merger or consolidation to which the Collateral Custodian shall be a party, or (iii) that may succeed to the properties and assets of the Collateral Custodian substantially as a whole, which Person in any of the foregoing cases executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of the Collateral Custodian hereunder, shall be the successor to the Collateral Custodian under this Agreement without further act of any of the parties to this Agreement.

Section 18.10    Collateral Custodian Compensation. As compensation for its Collateral Custodian activities hereunder, the Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to its fees and expenses from the Borrower as set forth in the Collateral Custodian Fee Letter and any other accrued and unpaid fees, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) and indemnity amounts payable by the Borrower or the Services Provider, or both but without duplication, to the Collateral Custodian (including Indemnified Amounts under Article XVI) under the Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Collateral Custodian Fees and Expenses”). The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Collateral Custodian in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.3(a) for all

-163-

reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Collateral Custodian in accordance with any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or in the enforcement of any provision hereof or in the other Transaction Documents. The Collateral Custodian’s entitlement to receive fees (other than any previously accrued and unpaid fees) shall cease on the earlier to occur of: (i) its removal or resignation as Collateral Custodian and appointment and acceptance by the successor Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 18.11 and the Collateral Custodian has ceased to hold any Collateral Obligation Files or (ii) the termination of this Agreement.

Section 18.11    Removal or Resignation of Collateral Custodian. (a) After the expiration of the 180-day period commencing on the date hereof, the Collateral Custodian may at any time resign and terminate its obligations under this Agreement upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Services Provider, the Borrower and the Facility Agent and each Agent; provided, that no resignation or removal of the Collateral Custodian will be permitted unless a successor Collateral Custodian has been appointed which successor Collateral Custodian, so long as no Unmatured Services Provider Event of Default, Services Provider Event of Default, Unmatured Facility Termination Event or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, is reasonably acceptable to the Services Provider. Promptly after receipt of notice of the Collateral Custodian’s resignation, the Facility Agent shall promptly appoint a successor Collateral Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, copies of which instrument shall be delivered to the Borrower, the Services Provider, each Agent, the resigning Collateral Custodian and to the successor Collateral Custodian.

(b)    The Facility Agent upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Custodian and each Agent, may remove and discharge the Collateral Custodian or any successor Collateral Custodian thereafter appointed from the performance of its duties under this Agreement with or without cause. Promptly after giving notice of removal of the Collateral Custodian, the Facility Agent shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Collateral Custodian; provided that, so long as no Services Provider Event of Default or Facility Termination Event has occurred and is continuing (x) any successor Collateral Custodian so appointed by the Facility Agent shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and (y) the Borrower’s consent shall be required in connection with the Facility Agent’s removal of the Collateral Custodian without cause unless any litigation has commenced between the Facility Agent and the Collateral Custodian. Any such appointment shall be accomplished by written instrument and one original counterpart of such instrument of appointment shall be delivered to the Collateral Custodian and the successor Collateral Custodian, with a copy delivered to the Borrower and the Services Provider.

(c)    In the event of any such resignation or removal, the Collateral Custodian shall, no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of the successor Collateral Custodian, transfer to the successor Collateral Custodian, as directed in writing by the Facility Agent, all the Collateral Obligation Files being administered under this Agreement. The cost of the shipment of Collateral Obligation Files arising out of the resignation of the Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 18.11(a), or the termination for cause of the Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 18.11(b), shall be at the expense of the Collateral Custodian. Any cost of shipment arising out of the removal or discharge of the Collateral Custodian without cause pursuant to Section 18.11(b) shall be at the expense of the Borrower.

-164-

(d)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to receive, as and when such amounts are payable in accordance with this Agreement, any Collateral Custodian Fees accrued through the effective date of its resignation or removal pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 18.11.

Section 18.12    Limitations on Liability. (a) The Collateral Custodian may conclusively rely on and shall be fully protected in acting upon any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document delivered to it and that in good faith it reasonably believes to be genuine and that has been signed by the proper party or parties. The Collateral Custodian shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any such certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram or other document; provided, however, that, if the form thereof is prescribed by this Agreement, the Collateral Custodian shall examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the requirements hereof. The Collateral Custodian may rely conclusively on and shall be fully protected in acting upon (a) the written instructions of any designated officer of the Facility Agent or (b) the verbal instructions of the Facility Agent, and no party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Collateral Custodian as a result of the Collateral Custodian acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Facility Agent.

(b)    The Collateral Custodian may consult counsel satisfactory to it and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(c)    Neither the Collateral Custodian nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any error of judgment, or for any act done or step taken or omitted by it, in good faith, or for any mistakes of fact or law, or for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith except in the case of its willful misconduct or negligent performance or omission of its duties and in the case of the negligent performance of its duties in taking and retaining custody of the Collateral Obligation Files; provided that, the Collateral Custodian hereby agrees that any failure of the Collateral Custodian to produce an original promissory note satisfying the conditions described in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 18.7 shall constitute negligence. The Collateral Custodian shall not be obligated to take any legal action hereunder that might in its judgment involve any expense or liability unless it has been furnished with an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it.

(d)    The Collateral Custodian makes no warranty or representation and shall have no responsibility (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) as to the content, enforceability, completeness, validity, sufficiency, value, genuineness, ownership or transferability of the Collateral, and will not be required to and will not make any representations as to the validity or value (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement) of any of the Collateral.

(e)    The Collateral Custodian shall have no duties or responsibilities except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and no covenants or obligations shall be implied in this Agreement against the Collateral Custodian. The duties, obligations and responsibilities of the Collateral Custodian shall be determined solely by the

-165-

express provisions of this Agreement. No implied duties, obligations or responsibilities shall be read into this Agreement against, or on the part of, the Collateral Custodian. Any permissive right of the Collateral Custodian to take any action hereunder shall not be construed as a duty.

(f)    The Collateral Custodian shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds in the performance of its duties hereunder. In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond its control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo, government action (including any laws, ordinances, regulations) or the like that delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of services by the Collateral Custodian as contemplated by this Agreement.

(g)    It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that the Collateral Custodian is not guaranteeing performance of or assuming any liability for the obligations of the other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral.

(h)    In case any reasonable question arises as to its duties hereunder, the Collateral Custodian may, prior to the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event or the Facility Termination Date, request instructions from the Services Provider and may, after the occurrence of a Facility Termination Event or the Facility Termination Date, request instructions from the Facility Agent, and shall be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received instructions from the Services Provider or the Facility Agent, as applicable. The Collateral Custodian shall in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken pursuant to and in compliance with the instruction of the Facility Agent. In no event shall the Collateral Custodian be liable for special, indirect, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Collateral Custodian has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(i)    Beyond the safekeeping of the Collateral Obligation Files in accordance with Article XVIII, the Collateral Custodian shall not have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Custodian shall not be liable or responsible for any misconduct, negligence or loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent, attorney or bailee selected by the Collateral Custodian in good faith and with due care hereunder.

(j)    Each of the protections, reliances, indemnities and immunities offered to the Collateral Agent in Section 11.7 and Section 11.8 shall be afforded to the Collateral Custodian.

Section 18.13    Collateral Custodian as Agent of Collateral Agent. The Collateral Custodian agrees that, with respect to any Collateral Obligation File at any time or times in its possession or held in its name, the Collateral Custodian shall be the agent and custodian of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, for purposes of perfecting (to the extent not otherwise perfected) the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral and for the purpose of ensuring that such security interest is entitled to first priority status under the UCC. If the Collateral Custodian is the same entity as the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Custodian shall be entitled to the same rights and protections afforded to the Collateral Agent hereunder.
