(a) On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Borrowers shall deliver on the Effective Date to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, two duly executed variable funding notes in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 (the “A-1 Variable Funding Note” or “A-1 VFN”) and Exhibit B-2 (the “A-2 Variable Funding Note” or “A-2 VFN”, and, together with the A-1 Variable Funding Note, the “Variable Funding Notes” or “VFNs”), dated as of the date of this Agreement, and otherwise duly completed. The face amount and maximum principal balance of the A-1 Variable Funding Note shall be $25,000,000 and the face amount and maximum principal balance of the A-2 Variable Funding Note shall equal the difference between the amount of the aggregate Commitments and the maximum principal balance of the A-1 Variable Funding Note (which amount shall be $25,000,000 on the Closing Date). Each Lender’s Commitment shall be allocated ratably to the A-1 Variable Funding Note and the A-2 Variable Funding Note in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.
(b) During the Revolving Period, a Borrower may, at its option, request the Lenders to make Loans of funds under the VFNs pursuant to a Funding Request delivered to the Administrative Agent. Following the receipt of a Funding Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of receipt thereof, and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Lenders shall fund such Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall be obligated to provide a Borrower with funds in connection with a Loan that would exceed the Lender’s unused Commitment then in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) Loans shall be made solely under the A-1 Variable Funding Note, up to the maximum principal balance thereof, before any Loans shall be made under the A-2 Variable Funding Note, and (ii) in the event of any reduction in the outstanding principal balance of the A-1 Variable Funding Note after such time as such balance has reached the maximum principal balance of the A-1 Variable Funding Note, Loans thereafter shall again be made solely under the A-1 Variable Funding Note, up to the maximum principal balance thereof, before any Loans shall be made under the A-2 Variable Funding Note.
(c) The Borrowers may, within 60 days but not less than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make a request for each Lender to extend the Maturity Date for an additional period of 364 days. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of receipt of such notice. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall make a determination, in their sole discretion, within 15 days of the date of the applicable Borrower’s request for such extension, as to whether or not it will agree to the applicable extension requested. The failure of the Administrative Agent and each Lender to provide timely notice of its decision to the Borrowers shall be deemed to constitute a refusal by the Administrative Agent and each Lender to extend the applicable date. Each Borrower confirms that the Administrative Agent and each Lender, in their sole and absolute discretion, without regard to the value or performance of the Collateral or any other factor, may elect not to extend the Maturity Date. The Borrowers shall give prompt notice to the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian as to whether or not the Maturity Date has been extended. In the event
32
that the Administrative Agent rejects (or is deemed to reject) a request by the Borrowers under this Section 2.1(c), then the Administrative Agent acknowledges that the right of first refusal set forth in Section 13.18 shall not apply with respect to any facilities proposed to close on or after the Facility Termination Date.
(d) The Borrowers may, with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender, add additional Persons as Lenders or cause an existing Lender to increase its Commitment in connection with a corresponding increase in the Facility Amount. Each additional Lender shall become a party hereto by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers a Joinder Supplement.

(i) to the Administrative Agent, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian, written notice of such proposed Funding Date (including a duly completed Borrowing Base Certificate updated to the date such Loan is requested and giving pro forma effect to the Loan requested and the use of the proceeds thereof);
(ii) to the Administrative Agent, a wire disbursement and authorization form, to the extent not previously delivered; and
(iii) to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Custodian, a duly completed Funding Request which shall (a) specify the desired amount of such Loan, which amount must be at least equal to $250,000, (b) specify the proposed Funding Date of such Loan, (c) specify the Receivables to be financed on such Funding Date, including the appropriate file number and Outstanding Receivable Balance for each such Receivable, and (d) include a representation that all conditions precedent for a Loan described in Article III hereof have been met.
(b) Each Funding Request shall be irrevocable and the Borrowers shall be limited to two (2) Loans per week (in total); provided that the Lenders in their sole discretion may allow for additional Loans to be made in excess of the above limitation; provided further that each such additional Loan, if approved, shall be subject to a $2,500 administration fee.
(c) On the proposed Funding Date, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b) and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, each Lender shall make available to the applicable Borrower in same day funds, at such bank or other location reasonably designated by the applicable Borrower in the Funding Request given pursuant to this Section 2.2, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the least of (i) the amount requested by the Borrowers for such Loan, (ii) the aggregate unused Commitments then in effect, and (iii) an amount equal to the Maximum Outstanding Loan Amount on such Funding Date.
33
(d) On each Funding Date, the obligation of each Lender to remit its Pro Rata Share of any such Loan shall be several from that of each other Lender and the failure of any Lender to so make such amount available to the Borrowers shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder.
Section 2.3. Restriction on Repayments.
No Borrower shall be permitted to repay the Loans Outstanding applicable to it prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date. Thereafter, the Borrowers shall be entitled, at their option, to repay in whole or in part the Loans Outstanding; provided that (i) the Borrowers shall give ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of such repayment substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay the related Prepayment Premium in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if the Borrowers repay the Loans Outstanding in full prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall pay the Full Prepayment Make-Whole Fee to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and (B) if the Borrowers repay the Loans Outstanding in part prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall pay the Partial Prepayment Make-Whole Fee to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders on the first Business Day following the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date. In connection with any such reduction of Loans Outstanding, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) instructions to reduce such Loans Outstanding and (ii) funds sufficient to repay such Loans Outstanding and all accrued interest with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of receipt of such instructions and shall apply amounts received from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.3 to the payment of Loans Outstanding. Any Notice of Reduction of Loans Outstanding relating to any repayment pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be irrevocable. Reductions of Loans Outstanding shall be applied ratably to the A-1 VFN and A-2 VFN based on the respective outstanding principal balances thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the application of Collections received in the ordinary course shall not constitute a “repayment” or “prepayment” by the Borrowers for purposes of this Section 2.3.
Section 2.4. Determination of Interest.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Interest Rate and the Interest (including unpaid Interest related thereto, if any, due and payable on a prior Payment Date) to be paid by the Borrowers with respect to the Loans on each Payment Date for the related Accrual Period and shall advise the Servicer and each Lender thereof not later than 2:00 p.m. on the third Business Day following the end of each Collection Period. The Borrowers shall pay all Interest due for each applicable Accrual Period pursuant to Section 2.7 or 2.8, as applicable.
(b) Anything in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the rate of interest payable by any Person under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under Applicable Law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then, so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, the rate of interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable
34
under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, such Person shall continue to pay interest under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received from such Person is equal to the total interest that would have been received had Applicable Law not limited the interest rate payable under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. In no event shall the total interest received by a Lender under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents exceed the amount that such Lender could lawfully have received, had the interest due under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents been calculated since the Closing Date at the Maximum Lawful Rate.
Section 2.5. Notations on Variable Funding Notes.
The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to enter on a schedule attached to the VFNs a notation (which may be computer generated) or to otherwise record in its internal books and records or computer system with respect to each Loan under the applicable VFN made by each Lender of (a) the date and principal amount thereof and (b) each payment and repayment of principal thereof. Any such recordation shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the Loans Outstanding under such VFN. The failure of the Administrative Agent to make any such notation on the schedule attached to a VFN shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms set forth herein.
Section 2.6. Principal Repayments.
(a) Unless sooner prepaid pursuant to Section 2.3, Section 2.7, Section 2.8 or Section 10.2, the Loans Outstanding shall be repaid in full on the Termination Date (with such payments to be applied ratably to the A-1 VFN and the A-2 VFN based on the respective outstanding principal balances thereof).
(b) If at any time the Loans Outstanding exceed the Maximum Outstanding Loan Amount (including as a result of an Eligible Receivable becoming a Defaulted Receivable), the Borrowers shall within five (5) Business Days of the actual knowledge of such shortfall by a Responsible Officer cure such shortfall by (i) depositing into the Collection Account amounts sufficient to reduce the Loans Outstanding (with such payments to be applied ratably to the A-1 VFN and the A-2 VFN based on the respective outstanding principal balances thereof) or (ii) adding additional Eligible Receivables to the Collateral.
Section 2.7. Settlement Procedures During the Revolving Period.
On each Payment Date during the Revolving Period, the Servicer shall direct the Collateral Custodian to pay pursuant to the Servicing Report (and the Collateral Custodian shall make payment from the Collection Account to the extent of Available Funds in reliance on the information set forth in such Servicing Report) to the following Persons, the following amounts in the following order of priority:

The Servicer shall (or shall cause the applicable Sub-Servicer to do so on its behalf) direct each Obligor on the Receivables to make payments only to one of the Lockbox Accounts listed on Schedule VI, as such Schedule VI may be amended from time to time. The LLC Borrower, the Servicer and the Trust II Borrower shall wire transfer, or cause to
37
be wire transferred, all Collections received in the Lockbox Accounts related to Receivables acquired by the LLC Borrower pursuant to its Sale Agreement (or, in the case of the Trust II Borrower, the Receivables acquired by it from the LLC Borrower pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) or received directly by it to the Collection Account by the close of business on the Business Day following receipt. The Trust Borrower and the Trust II Borrower shall wire transfer, or cause to be wire transferred, to the Concentration Account by the close of business on each Business Day, all Collections received in the Lockbox Accounts related to Receivables acquired by either of the Trust Borrower and the Trust II Borrower pursuant to the Sourcing and Servicing Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, as applicable, or received directly by either of them. Pursuant to the Concentration Account Agreement, both the Trust Borrower and the Trust II Borrower shall cause the applicable Collections to be transferred from the Concentration Account to the Collection Account within one (1) Business Day of deposit therein. The Servicer shall further include a statement as to the amount of Collections on deposit in the Collection Account on each Reporting Date in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a).
(b) Excluded Amounts. With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account (not more than once per week) any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent, delivered to the Administrative Agent a report (a copy of which (together with the written consent of the Administrative Agent) will be provided by the Servicer to the Backup Servicer and Collateral Custodian) setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(c) Initial Deposits. On the Funding Date with respect to any Loan, the Servicer will direct (which direction may take the form of standing instructions) the Collateral Custodian in writing to deposit into the Collection Account all Collections received in respect of such Receivable after the applicable cutoff date established in connection with the acquisition thereof (if other than the Funding Date) and delivered to the Collateral Custodian.
(d) Investment of Funds. Prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent there are uninvested amounts deposited in the Collection Account, all such amounts shall be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the initial Servicer in written instructions delivered to the Collateral Custodian (which may be in the form of standing instructions); during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent there are uninvested amounts in the Collection Account, all such amounts may be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the Administrative Agent.

Each Permitted Investment may be purchased by or through the Collateral Custodian or its Affiliates. The Collateral Custodian shall have no responsibility for the performance of any Permitted Investment.
38
Section 2.10. Payments, Computations, Etc.
(a) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all amounts to be paid or deposited by the Borrowers or the initial Servicer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in accordance with the terms hereof no later than 2:00 p.m. on the day when due in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds and any amount not received before such time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Borrowers or the initial Servicer, as applicable, shall, to the extent permitted by law, pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties) interest on all amounts not paid or deposited when due hereunder at the Default Rate upon written notice of same, as applicable, payable on demand; provided that such interest rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law. Such interest shall be for the account of the applicable Secured Party. All computations of interest and other fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of Interest or any fee payable hereunder, as the case may be.
(c) If any Loan is requested by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.2 and is not effectuated as a result of a Borrower’s actions or failure to fulfill any condition under Section 3.2, as the case may be, on the date specified therefor, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify the applicable Lenders against any reasonable direct loss, cost or expense actually incurred by such Lenders, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the applicable Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.
Section 2.11. Fees.
(a) The Borrowers shall pay in accordance with Section 2.7(4) and Section 2.8(4) an unused fee (the “Unused Fee”), monthly in arrears, in an amount equal to (i) the Maximum Committed Amount minus (ii) the sum of the average daily balance of each of (w) the Loans Outstanding, and (x) the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan times (iii) 0.25% divided by (iv) 12. No Unused Fee shall accrue during the Amortization Period.
Section 2.12. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality.
(a) If after the Closing Date either (i) the introduction of or any change (including, without limitation, any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements) in or in the interpretation of any Applicable Law or (ii) the compliance by a Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall (1) subject a Lender to any Tax (except net income, gross income or franchise and similar taxes imposed on any Lender by a taxing jurisdiction in which any such Person is organized, conducts business or is paying taxes (as the case may be)), duty or other charge with respect to any interest in the Collateral, or any right or obligation to make the Loan hereunder, or on any payment made hereunder, (2) impose, modify
39
or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any reserve requirement, if any, included in the determination of Interest), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the amount of, or credit extended by, any Lender under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (3) impose any other condition affecting the ownership or security interest in the Collateral conveyed to the Lenders hereunder or any Lender’s rights hereunder or under any other Transaction Document, the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by a Lender under this Agreement or under any other Transaction Document, then on the Payment Date following demand by such Lender (or the next Payment Date, if such demand is given less than five (5) days prior to a Payment Date) (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrowers shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.
(b) If either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request or (ii) compliance by any Lender with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other governmental authority or agency (whether or not having the force of law), including, without limitation, compliance by a Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Lender as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or arising in connection herewith to a level below that which any such Lender could have achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender with respect to capital adequacy) by a material amount, then from time to time, on the Payment Date following demand by such Lender (or the next Payment Date, if such demand is given less than five (5) days prior to a Payment Date) (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand), the Borrowers shall pay directly to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, if the issuance of any amendment or supplement to Interpretation No. 46 or to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any other change in accounting standards or the issuance of any other pronouncement, release or interpretation, causes or requires the consolidation of all or a portion of the assets and liabilities of the Originator or the Borrowers with the assets and liabilities of any Lender or shall otherwise impose any loss, cost, expense, reduction of return on capital or other loss or any Lender, such event shall constitute a circumstance on which such Lender may base a claim for reimbursement under this Section 2.12.
(c) In determining any amount provided for in this Section 2.12, the Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any Lender making a claim under this Section 2.12 shall submit to the Servicer a written description in reasonable detail as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the calculation thereof, which written description shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand or receive such compensation. The Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any
40
loss, cost or expense under this Section unless a claim therefor has been made within 180 days of knowledge thereof by such Lender.
Section 2.13. Taxes.
(a) All payments made by a Borrower or the initial Servicer (on behalf of the Borrowers) under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable hereunder, then the amount payable to such Person will be increased (the amount of such increase, the “Additional Amount”) such that every net payment made under this Agreement after withholding for or on account of any Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes on such increase) is not less than the amount that would have been paid had no such deduction or withholding been made; provided that no Additional Amount shall be payable hereunder to any Person to the extent such amount is payable as a result of the failure of such Person to comply with Section 2.13(d). The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts with respect to payments required to be made by the Borrowers under this Agreement will not, however, apply with respect to net income, gross income or franchise and similar taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
(b) The initial Servicer will indemnify (and to the extent the indemnification provided by the initial Servicer is insufficient, the Borrowers will indemnify) each Lender for the full amount of Taxes payable by such Persons in respect of Additional Amounts and any liability (including interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that no indemnification shall be payable hereunder to any Person to the extent such amount is payable as a result of the failure of such Person to comply with Section 2.13(d). All payments in respect of this indemnification shall be made on the Payment Date following the date a written invoice therefor setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts is delivered to the Borrowers. In the event any Secured Party receives a refund of any amount paid by a Borrower or the initial Servicer pursuant to this Section 2.13, as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Secured Party shall promptly remit such refunded amount to the applicable Borrower(s) or the initial Servicer, as applicable.
(c) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Borrowers of any Taxes, the Borrowers will furnish to the Administrative Agent appropriate evidence of payment thereof.
(d) If any Lender is not created or organized under the laws of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent on the Lender’s behalf) shall deliver to the Borrowers, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Custodian and the Servicer, (i) within fifteen (15) days after the date such Lender becomes party to the applicable Transaction Documents, two (or such other number as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms or other certificates or statements that may be required from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities or Applicable Law), as appropriate, to permit the Borrowers to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes and (ii) upon the obsolescence of or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in, any form or
41
certificate previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.13(d), copies (in such numbers as may from time to time be prescribed by Applicable Law or regulations) of such additional, amended or successor forms, certificates or statements as may be required under Applicable Law to permit the Borrowers to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender without deduction or withholding of United States federal income or similar Taxes (and, in either case, the Borrowers shall be permitted to withhold, without penalty or liability, amounts it deems reasonably necessary if such documentation is not delivered hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any additional costs or expenses that are due to the fact that a Lender is not created or organized in the United States shall not be passed through to the Borrowers.
(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers and the Servicer contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 2.14. Assignment of the Sale Agreement, Purchase and Sale Agreements and Dealer Agreements.
Each Borrower hereby assigns to the extent of its interest therein, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder, all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to, but none of its obligations under, the Sale Agreements, each Purchase and Sale Agreement (including all recourse obligations of the applicable Sellers), the Dealer Agreements (including all buyback obligations of the applicable Dealers) and any UCC financing statements filed under or in connection therewith with respect to the Receivables. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Borrowers hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, its right to indemnification under the Sale Agreements and the Purchase and Sale Agreements with respect to the Receivables. The Borrowers confirm that (i) at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) otherwise, upon written notice to the Borrowers and the Servicer by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have the sole right to enforce a Borrower’s rights and remedies under the Sale Agreements, the Purchase and Sale Agreements (including all recourse guaranty obligations of the Sellers) and the Dealer Agreements (including all buyback obligations of the applicable Dealers) with respect to the Receivables for the benefit of the Secured Parties.
Section 2.15. Repurchase of Receivables.
Within ten (10) Business Days of the day a Receivable is (or becomes) subject to a Warranty Event, the Borrowers shall either: (i) make a deposit to the Collection Account (for allocation pursuant to Sections 2.7 or 2.8, as applicable) in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Outstanding Receivable Balance of such Receivable on the date of such payment, and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, or (ii) replace such Receivable with a substitute Receivable (a “Substitute Receivable”), provided, that such Substitute Receivable: (a) shall be an Eligible Receivable, and (b) prior to such Substitution, the Borrowers shall deliver the related Required Receivable File to the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Custodian shall have provided a Collateral Receipt with no exceptions to the Administrative Agent.

In the event that the Administrative Agent does not so appoint the Backup Servicer (which it may or may not do in its discretion), there is no Backup Servicer or the Backup Servicer is unable to assume such obligations on such date, the Administrative Agent shall as promptly as possible appoint a successor servicer (the “Successor Servicer”), and such Successor Servicer shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each Lender. In the event that a Successor Servicer has not accepted its appointment at the time when the Servicer ceases to act as Servicer, the Administrative Agent may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established financial institution, having a net worth of not less than United States $50,000,000 and whose regular business includes the servicing of loans, as the Successor Servicer hereunder.
(b) The Backup Servicer as a successor Servicer undertakes to perform only such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, it being expressly understood by all parties hereto that there are no implied duties or obligations of any successor Servicer hereunder.
(c) The Servicer agrees to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts in effecting the transition of the responsibilities and rights of servicing of the Receivables, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer for the administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by Servicer for deposit, or have been deposited by the Servicer, or thereafter received with respect to the Receivables and the delivery to the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer in an orderly and timely fashion of all files and records with respect to the Receivables and a computer tape in readable form containing all information necessary to enable the Backup Servicer as successor Servicer to service the Receivables. In addition, the Servicer agrees to cooperate and use commercially reasonable efforts in providing at the Servicer’s expense to the Backup Servicer, as a successor Servicer, with a list of key servicing personnel and contact information, reasonable access (including at the premises of the Servicer) to the Servicer’s employees, and any and all of the books, records (in electronic or other form) or other information reasonably requested by it to enable the Backup Servicer, as a successor Servicer, to assume the servicing functions hereunder.
(d) The Backup Servicer as a successor Servicer is authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do so or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
82
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination or to perform the duties of the Servicer. The Servicer will provide the Backup Servicer, as a successor Servicer, with a power of attorney stating such (at such time as the Backup Servicer becomes a successor Servicer).
(e) Upon its appointment, the Backup Servicer (subject to Section 6.13(a)) or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer with respect to servicing functions under this Agreement and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, and all references in this Agreement to the Servicer shall be deemed to refer to the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable; provided that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall have (i) no liability with respect to any action performed by the terminated Servicer prior to the date that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, becomes the successor to the Servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the terminated Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the Servicer unless it elects to in its sole discretion, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by the Servicer (provided that the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall pay any income taxes for which it is liable), (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to the transactions contemplated hereby, (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer, (vi) no obligation to make payments with respect to any losses on investments made by or at the direction of the Servicer, (vii) no obligation to take any legal action which the Backup Servicer in its reasonable opinion believes subjects it to any liability in connection with such legal action unless it shall have been assured to its reasonable satisfaction that it will be indemnified for such liabilities, and (viii) no liability with respect to any action performed, or breaches or defaults caused by any prior Servicer prior to its appointment, or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action of any prior Servicer. The indemnification obligations of the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer, as applicable, upon becoming a successor Servicer, are expressly limited to those arising on account of its failure to act in good faith and with reasonable care under the circumstances. In addition, the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer, as applicable, shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties of the initial Servicer contained in Article IV. In no event shall the Backup Servicer or the Successor Servicer be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages (including lost profits) whether or not it has been advised of the likelihood of such damages.
(f) Upon the Backup Servicer receiving notice that it is required to serve as the Servicer hereunder pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.13, the Backup Servicer will promptly begin the transition to its role as Servicer. In the event the Backup Servicer declines to continue to act as Servicer hereunder, the Backup Servicer shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from banks, specialty finance companies, asset managers and servicing institutions meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 6.13(a). Such public announcement shall specify that the Successor Servicer shall be entitled to the full amount of the Servicing Fee as servicing compensation. Within thirty (30) days after any such public announcement, the Backup Servicer shall negotiate and effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder to a qualified party acceptable to the Administrative Agent submitting a qualifying bid. The Backup Servicer shall deduct from any sum received by the Backup Servicer from the successor to the Servicer in respect of such sale,
83
transfer and assignment, all costs and expenses of any public announcement, of conducting such sale and of any sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum shall be paid by the Backup Servicer to the Servicer at the time of such sale, transfer and assignment to the Servicer’s successor. If no bid from a qualified potential Successor Servicer is received or if no sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder shall have been concluded within thirty (30) days after such public announcement, the Backup Servicer may, in its discretion, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established servicing institution as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. As compensation, any Successor Servicer (including, without limitation, the Administrative Agent) so appointed shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee, including, without limitation, transition expenses. The Backup Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. No appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder shall be effective until written notice of such proposed appointment shall have been provided by the Backup Servicer to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have consented thereto. The Backup Servicer shall not resign as Servicer until a Successor Servicer has been appointed and accepted such appointment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Backup Servicer or Successor Servicer be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any Successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for by this Agreement.
(g) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any successor Servicer is authorized to accept and rely on all of the accounting, records (including computer records) and work of the prior Servicer relating to the Receivables (collectively, the “Predecessor Servicer Work Product”) without any audit or other examination thereof, and such successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for the acts and omissions of the prior Servicer. If any error, inaccuracy, omission or incorrect or non-standard practice or procedure (collectively, “Errors”) exists in any Predecessor Servicer Work Product and such Errors make it materially more difficult to service or should cause or materially contribute to the successor Servicer making or continuing any Errors (collectively, “Continued Errors”), such successor Servicer shall have no duty, responsibility, obligation or liability for such Continued Errors; provided that such successor Servicer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent further Continued Errors. In the event that the successor Servicer becomes aware of Errors or Continued Errors, it shall, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to reconstruct and reconcile such data as is commercially reasonable to correct such Errors and Continued Errors and to prevent future Continued Errors. Such successor Servicer shall be entitled to recover its costs thereby expended in accordance with Sections 2.7 and 2.8, as applicable.

ARTICLE IX
SECURITY INTEREST
Section 9.1. Grant of Security Interest.
This Agreement constitutes a security agreement and the transactions effected hereby constitute secured loans by the Lenders to the Borrowers under Applicable Law. For such purpose, each Borrower hereby transfers, conveys, assigns and grants as of the date hereof to the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, a lien and continuing security interest in all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under (but none of the obligations under) all Collateral and all cash, loans, securities (whether or not marketable), liquidation proceeds of repossessed assets, accounts, insurance policies (including any life insurance or disability insurance policies maintained by obligors) and proceeds thereon, contract rights, amounts or funds in escrow and accounts thereto, chattel paper, financial assets, investment property, instruments, general intangibles, payment intangibles, accounts, deposit accounts, money, documents, agreements, investments and all other property and assets of any type or nature in which such Borrower has an interest, whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired by such Borrower, and wherever the same may be located, to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance in full when due, whether by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, of all Aggregate Unpaids of the Borrowers arising in connection with this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, whether now or hereafter existing, due or to become due, direct or indirect, or absolute or contingent. The grant of a security interest under this Section 9.1 does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or an assumption by any of the Secured Parties of any obligation of the Borrowers or any other Person in connection with any or all of the Collateral or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) the Borrowers shall remain liable under the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, of any of its rights in the Collateral shall not release the Borrowers from any of its duties or obligations under the Collateral, and (c) no Secured Party shall have any obligations or liability under the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall any Secured
94
Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of the Borrowers thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. The Borrowers hereby authorize Mayer Brown LLP to file, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, a “Record” or “Records” (as such term is defined in the applicable UCC), including financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, in all jurisdictions and with all filing offices as the Administrative Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable to perfect the security interests granted to the Administrative Agent in connection herewith. Such financing statements may describe the collateral in the same manner as described herein or in any security agreement or pledge agreement entered into by the parties in connection herewith or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Administrative Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary, advisable or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interests in the Collateral granted to the Administrative Agent in connection herewith, including describing such property as “all assets” or “all personal property.”
Section 9.2. Release of Lien on Collateral.
On the date (i) any Receivable expires by its terms and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid in full by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account, (ii) any Receivable becomes a Prepaid Receivable and all amounts in respect thereof have been paid in full by the related Obligor and deposited in the Collection Account, (iii) on which the applicable Borrower has paid all required amounts pursuant to Section 2.15 with respect to the related Receivable, (iv) any Receivable is substituted for in accordance with Section 2.15, or (v) this Agreement terminates in accordance with Section 13.6, the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, shall automatically and without further action be deemed to transfer, assign and set-over to the applicable Borrower, without recourse, representation or warranty, all the right, title and interest of the Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties in, to and under such Receivable (or all Receivables in the case of clause (v)), all related Collateral and all future monies due or to become due with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent, as agent for the Secured Parties, shall, at the sole expense of such Borrower, (i) execute such instruments of release in favor of such Borrower with respect to the portion of the Collateral to be released from the Lien of this Agreement as applicable Borrower may reasonably request (in recordable form if necessary), (ii) deliver any portion of the Collateral to be released from the Lien of this Agreement in its possession to the applicable Borrower and (iii) otherwise take such actions, and cause or permit the Collateral Custodian to take such actions, as are necessary and appropriate to release the Lien of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties on the portion of the Collateral to be released and deliver to the applicable Borrower such portion of the Collateral to be released to the applicable Borrower.
Section 9.3. Further Assurances.
The provisions of Section 13.12 shall apply to the security interest granted under Section 9.1 as well as to the Loans hereunder.
95
Section 9.4. Remedies.
Subject to the provisions of Section 10.2, upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have, with respect to the Collateral granted pursuant to Section 9.1, and in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties under this Agreement or other Applicable Law, all rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC.
Section 9.5. Waiver of Certain Laws.
Each of the Borrowers and the Servicer agree, to the full extent that it may lawfully so agree, that neither it nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any Collateral may be situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement or foreclosure of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the absolute sale of any of the Collateral or any part thereof, or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and each of the Borrowers and the Servicer, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may be lawful so to do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have any of the properties or assets constituting the Collateral marshaled upon any such sale, and agrees that the Administrative Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose the security interests granted in this Agreement may sell the Collateral as an entirety or in such parcels as the Administrative Agent or such court may determine.
Section 9.6. Power of Attorney.
Each of the Borrowers and the initial Servicer hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default as its true and lawful attorney (with full power of substitution) in its name, place and stead and at its expense, in connection with the enforcement of the rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement, in each case to the extent so permitted hereunder, including without limitation the following powers: (a) to give any necessary receipts or acquittance for amounts collected or received hereunder, (b) to make all necessary transfers of the Collateral in connection with any sale or other disposition made pursuant to Section 9.4, (c) to execute and deliver for value all necessary or appropriate bills of sale, assignments and other instruments in connection with any such sale or other disposition and (d) to sign any agreements, orders or other documents in connection with or pursuant to any Transaction Document, the Borrowers and the initial Servicer (as the case may be) hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney (or any substitute) shall lawfully do hereunder and pursuant hereto. Nevertheless, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall ratify and confirm any such sale or other disposition by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent or such purchaser all proper bills of sale, assignments, releases and other instruments as may be designated in any such request.

Section 13.18. Right of First Refusal.
Each of the LLC Borrower, the Trust Borrower, as applicable, the Originator and the initial Servicer hereby agrees, from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date, to grant to Administrative Agent a right of first refusal with respect to any financing facility such Person or any of its Affiliates may enter as a borrower to finance receivables substantially similar to the Eligible Receivables (a “Proposed Facility”). Each of the LLC Borrower, the Trust Borrower, as applicable, the Originator and the initial Servicer hereby agrees to notify the Administrative Agent of its intention to enter into a Proposed Facility and will inform the Administrative Agent of the general terms upon which such financing is sought, based on current market conditions. The Administrative Agent shall then have five (5) Business Days to inform the applicable Borrower, the Originator and the initial Servicer if it is interested in providing such financing. In the event that Administrative Agent indicates an interest in providing such financing, the applicable Borrower, the Originator and the Servicer thereafter agree to not enter into any such Proposed Facility with any third party and to negotiate such Proposed Facility with the Administrative Agent in good faith; provided that the Administrative Agent’s right of first refusal as set forth in this Section 13.18 shall only apply to the first $50,000,000 of such financing. In the event that the Administrative Agent declines to provide such financing or does not respond to the applicable Borrower, the Originator or the Servicer within five (5) Business Days of its receipt of such notice, the Borrowers, the Originator and the initial Servicer shall be permitted to enter the Proposed Facility with a third party on substantially similar or better terms in which such financing was proposed to Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the right of first refusal set forth in this Section 13.18 shall not apply to the Trust II Borrower.
Section 13.19. Concerning Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers.
(a) Each Borrower accepts joint and several liability hereunder in consideration of the financial accommodation to be provided by the Lenders under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the other Borrowers and in consideration of the undertaking of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for such Borrower’s obligations.
(b) Each of the Borrowers jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with each other Borrower with respect to the payment of all of the Aggregate Unpaids and the performance of all of the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Aggregate Unpaids and obligations hereunder shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them.
(c) If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Aggregate Unpaids as and when due or to perform any of its obligations in accordance with the terms hereof (including any applicable grace or cure periods), then in each such event, the other Borrower(s) will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such obligation.
114
(d) The obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 13.19 constitute full recourse obligations of each such Borrower, enforceable against it to the full extent of its Collateral, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever.
(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Borrower hereby waives further notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability. Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids of the other Borrower, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Administrative Agent or any Lender at any time or times in respect of any default by the other Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of any of the Aggregate Unpaids of the other Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act with respect to the other Borrower on the part of any Lender, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with the applicable laws or regulations hereunder which might, but for the provisions of this Section 13.19, afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving such Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its obligations under this Section 13.19. The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 13.19 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower or any Secured Party. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, membership, constitution or place of formation of any Borrower or any Secured Party.
(f) The provisions of this Section 13.19 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by any such Person from time to time against any of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of any such Person first to marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Aggregate Unpaids or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 13.19 shall remain in effect until all the Aggregate Unpaids shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Aggregate Unpaids, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowers, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 13.19 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.
(g) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Transaction Documents, to the extent the joint obligations of a Borrower shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is
115
permissible under applicable law (whether federal or state and including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code).
Section 13.20. Amendment and Restatement.
(a) On the date hereof, the Amended Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in its entirety by this Agreement but the indebtedness evidenced thereby shall neither be cancelled nor extinguished. The parties hereto hereby (i) acknowledge and agree that the Liens granted under the Transaction Documents securing the payment of such indebtedness are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect, secure the payment of such indebtedness and from and after the date hereof shall secure the Loans under this Agreement in addition to such indebtedness and (ii) fully and unconditionally, to the extent of each of their respective interests therein, ratify and affirm all Transaction Documents.
(b) On and after the date hereof, (i) each reference in the Transaction Documents to the “Agreement”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or similar words referring to the Agreement shall mean and be a reference to this Agreement and (ii) each reference in the Transaction Documents to a “Variable Funding Notes” or “VFNs” and the “Loans” shall mean and be a reference to the Variable Funding Notes or VFNs and the Loans as defined in this Agreement.

Section 14.2. Limited Guaranty of Payment.
Subject to the limitations set forth below, Summit Consumer Receivables Fund, L.P., individually, as a Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the prompt payment of the Aggregate Unpaids up to a cumulative amount of 10% of the Maximum Committed Amount upon written demand by the
117
Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and continuance of a Borrowing Base Deficiency. This limited guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection and is a continuing guaranty. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Summit Consumer Receivables Fund, L.P.’s liability under this Agreement, or any of the other Transaction Documents or otherwise, exceed in the aggregate, to any and all parties from the date hereof forward, an amount equal to 10% of the highest aggregate Outstanding Receivables Balance of Eligible Receivables since the Closing Date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Transaction Documents, to the extent the obligations of such Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, then the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under Applicable Law.
Section 14.3. Guarantor Payments.
If at any time payment is due pursuant to the either of the Guaranties and the Servicer or the Administrative Agent informs in writing the Guarantors of the same, the Guarantors, as applicable, shall within two (2) Business Days deposit the amount due into the Collection Account for distribution in accordance with Section 2.7 or Section 2.8, as applicable. The Servicer shall keep records of the amount of Guarantor Payments made by each Guarantor and such amount shall be reflected in all Servicer Reports after the initial Guarantor Payment.
Section 14.4. Obligations Unconditional.
The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder, subject to the limitations of Sections 14.1 and 14.2, are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (other than the prior payment of the amounts due). Each Guarantor agrees that either Guaranty may be enforced by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having recourse to any other of the Transaction Documents or any Collateral, if any, hereafter securing the Aggregate Unpaids or otherwise and each Guarantor hereby waives the right to require Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties to make demand on or proceed against the Borrowers or any other Person or to require Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties to pursue any other remedy or enforce any other right. Each Guarantor further agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrowers for amounts paid under the Guaranties until such time as the Aggregate Unpaids have been paid in full in cash, all Commitments under this Agreement have been terminated and, to the extent the Borrowers or either Guarantor is party to any Insolvency Proceeding, no Person or Governmental Authority shall have any right to request any return or reimbursement of funds from the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties in connection with monies received under the Transaction Documents. Each Guarantor further agrees that nothing contained herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent from enforcing the Transaction Documents or foreclosing its security interest in or Lien on any Collateral, if any, securing the Aggregate Unpaids or from exercising any other rights available to it under any of
118
the Transaction Documents, or any other instrument of security, if any, and the exercise of any of the aforesaid rights and the completion of any foreclosure proceedings shall not constitute a discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder; it being the purpose and intent of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Neither Guarantor’s obligations hereunder nor any remedy for the enforcement thereof shall be impaired, modified, changed or released in any manner whatsoever by an impairment, modification, change, release, increase or limitation of the liability of the Borrowers, the Servicer or the Originator or by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Borrowers, the Servicer, the Originator or the Guarantor. The Aggregate Unpaids, and any part of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the Guaranties provided in Sections 14.1 and 14.2. All dealings between the Borrowers, the Servicer, the Originator and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Guaranties provided in Sections 14.1 and 14.2. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates to the Aggregate Unpaids all debts, liabilities and other obligations, whether direct, indirect, primary, secondary, several, joint and several or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts, liabilities and obligations be evidenced by note, contract, open account, book entry or otherwise, owing by any of the Borrowers, the Servicer or the Originator to the Guarantor.
Section 14.5. Modifications.
Each Guarantor agrees that: (a) all or any part of the Collateral now or hereafter held for the Aggregate Unpaids, if any, may be exchanged, compromised or surrendered from time to time; (b) none of the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent shall have any obligation to protect, perfect, secure or insure any such security interests, liens or encumbrances now or hereafter held, if any, for the Aggregate Unpaids or the properties subject thereto; (c) the time or place of payment of the Aggregate Unpaids may be changed or extended, in whole or in part, to a time certain or otherwise, and may be renewed or accelerated, in whole or in part; (d) the Borrowers, the Servicer, the Originator and any other party liable for payment under the Transaction Documents may be granted indulgences generally; (e) any of the provisions of the Transaction Documents may be modified, amended or waived in accordance with the terms thereof; (f) any party liable for the payment thereof may be granted indulgences or be released; and (g) any deposit balance for the credit of the Borrowers, the Servicer, the Originator or any other party liable for the payment of the Aggregate Unpaids or liable upon any security therefor may be released, in whole or in part, at, before or after the stated, extended or accelerated maturity of the Aggregate Unpaids, all without notice to or further assent by the Guarantors and the Guarantors shall remain bound thereon the extent contemplated hereunder, notwithstanding any such exchange, compromise, surrender, extension, renewal, acceleration, modification, indulgence or release.
Section 14.6. Waiver of Rights.
Each Guarantor expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of the Guaranties provided in Sections 14.1 and 14.2 by the Secured Parties and of all extensions of credit to the Borrowers; (b) presentment and demand for payment or performance of any of the Aggregate Unpaids; (c) protest and notice of dishonor or of default
119
with respect to the Aggregate Unpaids or with respect to any security therefor; (d) notice of the Secured Parties obtaining, amending, substituting for, releasing, waiving or modifying any security interest, lien or encumbrance, if any, hereafter securing the Aggregate Unpaids, or the Secured Parties’ subordinating, compromising, discharging or releasing such security interests, liens or encumbrances, if any; and (e) all other notices to which such Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.
Section 14.7. Reinstatement.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Article XIV shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Aggregate Unpaids is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Aggregate Unpaids, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney costs) incurred by such Person in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
Section 14.8. Remedies.
Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, the Aggregate Unpaids may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10.2 hereof (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 10.2) notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing such Aggregate Unpaids from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or such Aggregate Unpaids being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such Aggregate Unpaids (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor, subject to the limitations in Sections 14.1 and 14.2.
Section 14.9. Subrogation.
Each Guarantor agrees that, until the Collection Date, it will not exercise any right of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution, offset or other claims against the Borrowers, the Servicer and the Originator arising by contract or operation of law in connection with any payment made or required to be made by the Guarantor under the Transaction Documents. After the payment in full in cash of the Aggregate Unpaids (other than any part of the Aggregate Unpaids that represents contingent contractual indemnities) and the termination of the Commitments, the Guarantor shall be entitled to exercise against the Borrowers, the Servicer and the Originator all such rights of reimbursement, subrogation, contribution, and offset, and all such other claims, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

THIS A-1 VARIABLE FUNDING NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “SECURITIES ACT”). NEITHER THIS A-1 VARIABLE FUNDING NOTE NOR ANY PORTION HEREOF MAY BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS.
THIS A-1 VARIABLE FUNDING NOTE IS NOT PERMITTED TO BE TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED OR OTHERWISE PLEDGED OR CONVEYED EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SSPE, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “LLC Borrower”), SSPE Investment Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust Borrower”), and CLST Asset Trust II, as a borrower (the “Trust II Borrower” and, together with the LLC Borrower and the Trust Borrower, the “Borrowers”), promise to pay to Fortress Credit Corp., as the administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), on behalf of the Lenders, or their respective assigns, the principal sum of TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($25,000,000), or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of the aggregate loans (the “Loans”) made by the Lenders to the Borrowers pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below), as set forth on the attached Schedule, on the dates specified in the Revolving Credit Agreement, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loan on each day that such unpaid principal amount is outstanding, at the Interest Rate related to such Loan as provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement, on each Payment Date and each other date specified in the Revolving Credit Agreement.
This A-1 Variable Funding Note (this “A-1 Note”) is issued pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of December 10, 2008 (as amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), by and among Summit Consumer Receivables Fund, L.P., as the originator (in such capacity, the “Originator”) and as a guarantor (in such capacity, a “Guarantor”), the Borrowers, Summit Alternative Investments, LLC, as the servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), Eric J.

Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this A-1 Note, if at any time the rate of interest payable by the Borrowers under this A-1 Note, when combined with any and all other charges provided for in this A-1 Note, in the Revolving Credit Agreement or in any other document (to the extent such other charges would constitute interest for the purpose of any applicable law limiting interest that may be charged on this A-1 Note), exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under applicable law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be exceeded, the rate of interest under this A-1 Note shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate. If at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable under this A-1 Note is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrowers shall continue to pay interest under this A-1 Note at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest paid by the Borrowers is equal to the total interest that would have been paid had applicable law not limited the interest rate payable under this A-1 Note. In no event shall the total interest received by the Lenders under this A-1 Note exceed the amount which the Lenders could lawfully have received had the interest due under this A-1 Note been calculated since the date of this A-1 Note at the Maximum Lawful Rate.
Payments of the principal of, and interest on, the Loans represented by this A-1 Note shall be made by or on behalf of the Borrowers to the holder hereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the manner and at the address specified for such purpose as provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement, or in such manner or at such other address as the holder of this A-1 Note shall have specified in writing to the Borrowers for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this A-1 Note or the making of any notation on this A-1 Note.
Pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Revolving Credit Agreement, (i) all Loans shall be funded solely under this A-1 Note, up to the maximum principal balance hereof, before any Loan is funded under the A-2 Variable Funding Note, and (ii) in the event of any reduction in the outstanding principal balance of this A-1 Note after such time as such balance has reached the maximum principal balance of this A-1 Note, Loans funded thereafter shall be made solely under this A-1 Note, up to the maximum principal balance hereof, before any Loans shall be funded under the A-2 Variable Funding Note.
If any payment under this A-1 Note falls due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable on any principal so extended at the applicable Interest Rate.
If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount hereof or (ii) any interest payable thereon or (iii) any other amounts payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to the Default Rate, in each case from the date of such non-payment to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid in full.
Portions or all of the principal amount of this A-1 Note shall become due and payable at the time or times set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement. Any portion or all of the principal
B-1-2
amount of this A-1 Note may be prepaid, together with interest thereon (and, as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, certain costs, expenses and fees of the Administrative Agent and Lenders) at the time and in the manner set forth in, but subject to the provisions of, the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Except as provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Borrowers expressly waive presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this A-1 Note.
All amounts evidenced by this A-1 Note, the Lenders’ Loans and all payments and prepayments of the principal hereof and the respective dates and maturity dates thereof shall be endorsed by the Administrative Agent, on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof or on a continuation thereof, which shall be attached hereto and made a part hereof; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent to make such a notation shall not in any way limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrowers under this A-1 Note as provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement.
This A-1 Note is secured by the security interests granted pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The holder of this A-1 Note is entitled to the benefits of the Revolving Credit Agreement and may enforce the agreements of the Borrowers contained in the Revolving Credit Agreement and exercise the remedies provided for by, or otherwise available in respect of, the Revolving Credit Agreement, all in accordance with, and subject to the restrictions contained in, the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. If an Event of Default shall occur (unless waived in writing by the Required Lenders), the unpaid balance of the principal of all the Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, may be declared, and become, due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Revolving Credit Agreement.
The Borrowers, the Originator, the Servicer, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Backup Servicer and the Collateral Custodian each intend, for federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes only, that this A-1 Note be evidence of indebtedness of the Borrowers secured by the Collateral.

Mortgage credit limit to balance analysis could negate approval. Past delinquencies will be taken into consideration during review. Co-signers are encouraged. ACH debit & backup payment methods are categorically required with very few exceptions.
Some state specific loans will require an advance adjustment due to statutory APR limitations.
