The Company covenants and agrees that it will, at all times and from time to time, permit the Collateral Agent and its agents and accountants to have access to and to inspect and make extracts from, the Company's books, accounts, papers, documents and memoranda pertinent to any of the covenants and conditions of this Agreement in respect of the Notes. The Company further agrees to keep proper books of records and account in which full and correct entries shall be made of all dealings or transactions of or in relation to the Notes and the business and affairs of the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Section 4.03Business Offices. The Company will maintain a business office where the Notes may be surrendered for payment at maturity, transfer, or exchange and where notices to or upon the Company with respect to the Notes may be served.

Section 4.05Company Existence. Subject to Article V herein, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, its rights and franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any right or franchise if it shall determine that the preservation is no longer desirable in the conduct of the Company's business and that the loss will not be disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

Section 4.06Collateral.

(a)All Collateral delivered to Collateral Agent as pledged assets under this Agreement shall be held by Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holders. If an Event of Default occurs, the Company agrees to “Deliver”, as such term is defined in Section 1.01 of this Agreement, to Collateral Agent the Required Documentation and such other documents to enable the Collateral Agent to undertake actions on behalf of the Holders with respect to the Collateral. Prior to an Event of Default, the Company shall Deliver possession of the assigned mortgage note in favor of the Collateral Agent or its nominee but shall not be required to Deliver the assigned deed of trust or mortgage for recording in order to pledge such Collateral under the terms of the this Agreement. Unless and until an Event of Default shall occur and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be entitled to receive all payments made and received in connection with any mortgage loan held by the Collateral Agent that secures the Notes and any rents, profits, and other income of the Collateral. The Company agrees to deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment of the mortgage secured promissory notes or debt securities in blank in favor of the Collateral Agent or its nominee and such documents as the Collateral Agent deems necessary to create a perfected first lien security interest in the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for filing, recording or perfecting any security interest in the Collateral.

(b)If any of the promissory notes, deeds of trust or mortgages shall be in default in excess one hundred and fifty (150) days, the Company shall provide replacement Collateral for such promissory note, mortgage or deed of trust sufficient to maintain the 105% minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio without regard to such defaulted promissory note or debt security. No substitution of replacement Collateral shall be required if the Collateral held by the Collateral Agent satisfies the minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio without regard to such defaulted loan or debt security. If an Event of Default has occurred under the Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as the Collateral Agent deems necessary to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise its remedies with regard to the Collateral, including any actions needed to enable Collateral Agent to obtain direct payments under the Collateral or to sell any portion of the Collateral to a third party.

(c)Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.06(a) above, at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, and at the expense of the Company, the Company shall promptly cause to be executed or delivered, such further instruments and documents for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of the Collateral. Such actions may include the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in any jurisdiction. The Company further agrees that it will not change its name or jurisdiction in which it is organized without first giving the Collateral Agent at least thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof and shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and amendments thereto as the Collateral Agent shall request and taken all other actions deemed necessary by the Collateral Agent to continue its perfected status in the Collateral with the same priority.

(d)In connection with its pledge of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent, the Company shall Deliver to the Collateral Agent:

(1)an Officer’s Certificate confirming that all necessary action has been taken to create and perfect a first lien and security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in the pledged notes, debt securities or Cash;

(2)copies of the filed and recorded UCC-1 financing statement or equivalent form;

(3)at least annually, an Officer’s Certificate confirming, to the best of its knowledge, that all necessary action has been taken to maintain a first lien and security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in the pledged promissory notes or stating that no such action is necessary;

(4)in connection with the release or substitution of Collateral assigned to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company agrees to furnish Collateral Agent with a Certification of Valuation of Collateral that is dated effective as of the date of the release or substitution of Collateral as permitted by this Agreement; and

(5)confirmation that it has identified in its computer files and records a notation or code indicating that the pledged mortgage loans, promissory notes, bonds or other Collateral are owned by the Company and pledged to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

(e)If an Event of Default occurs, the Collateral Agent shall have no right to foreclose on the underlying mortgages or deeds of trust that will serve as Collateral under this Agreement. In such event, Collateral Agent shall be entitled to receive all payments made and received in connection with any mortgage loan held as Collateral and any rents, profits or sales proceeds received from any mortgage loan held as Collateral under this Agreement and exercise any rights as a lender held by the Company pursuant to the mortgage loan documents.

Section 4.07Lien Created. This Agreement and the Notes are secured by the assets pledged in favor of the Collateral Agent created with the proceeds of the Notes. All real and personal property held by the Collateral Agent, including notes, mortgages, investments and cash balances, have been pledged hereby and a security interest, lien, charge and encumbrance created in favor of Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holders. The Company agrees to maintain books and records for the Collateral Agent and to segregate all assets of the Collateral Agent and identify them separately from other assets of the Company. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06(a) above, the Company agrees to execute and deliver to Collateral Agent a separate collateral assignment in blank in favor of Collateral Agent or its nominee of each note and mortgage (which terms shall include deeds of trust, deeds to secure debt, and other securities

instruments) which is pledged by the Company and to execute such other and further assignments and documents as may be reasonably required by Collateral Agent to evidence the security interest created hereby in favor of Collateral Agent.

Section 4.08Minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio. So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company agrees to maintain a minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio of at least 105%. In determining this ratio, all cash and liquid assets shall be credited at 100% of such amounts. The 105% ratio, therefore, will apply solely to mortgage loan assets that are pledged to the Collateral Agent. The Company agrees to furnish the Collateral Agent with a monthly Valuation of Eligible Pledged Assets report in the form of Exhibit C hereto, delivered on or before the fifteenth day after the end of the month which will certify the net balance of the Collateral held by the Collateral Agent, the Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio and the amount, if any, by which the Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio is less than the minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio of 105%. To the extent that the Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio is less than the minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio of 105%, a "mortgage pool deficiency” will exist. The Company shall be required to remedy a mortgage pool deficiency within ninety (90) days after the Pledged Assets Report Date or an event of default will occur.

Section 4.09 No Transfer of Collateral. So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall not convey, assign or transfer any part of the Collateral. For purposes of this Section 4.09, the term “transfer” means a sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition, grant of a security interest, lien or encumbrance in any of the Collateral. For purposes of this Section 4.09, the term “transfer” does not include a sale or disposition of any of the Collateral which is contemporaneously substituted for other promissory notes, debt securities or cash or cash equivalents that are eligible to be a part of the Collateral and enable the Company to satisfy the 105% minimum Mortgage Pool Collateralization Ratio.

Section 4.10 Compliance Certificate.

(a)Quarterly Certifications. On or before the fifteenth day after the end of the preceding quarter, the Company agrees to deliver to the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate confirming, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that all payments of interest and principal due on the Notes have been made in a timely manner for the preceding month. When delivering its monthly Officer’s Certificate, the Company further agrees to furnish the Collateral Agent with a report which summarizes the payments of principal and interest made by the Company to the Note holders. The Company’s obligation to furnish the monthly compliance report and Officer’s Certificate set forth in this Section 4.10(a) shall remain in effect during such time as the Company serves as Paying Agent for the Notes.

(b)Annual Certifications. The Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company an Officer’s Certificate stating that the (i) Company is in compliance with the covenants of this Article IV and terms and conditions of the Agreement and (ii) that to the best of his or her knowledge the

Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in this Agreement and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions and provisions hereof. To the extent that an Event of Default has occurred under this Agreement, the Officer’s Certificate shall describe what action that has been taken or is proposed to be taken by the Company with respect to such Event of Default.

Section 4.11Merger, Consolidation, Sale of Assets or Liquidation. While any Note is outstanding, the Company shall not (i) consolidate or merge with or into any other person or entity (whether or not the Company is the surviving entity); (ii) adopt a plan of liquidation that provides for the sale, lease, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (iii) the distribution of all or substantially all of the proceeds of such sale, lease, conveyance or disposition and of the remaining assets of the Company to the equity holders of the Company; or (iv) the sale, assignment, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, unless, immediately after such transaction no Event of Default under this Agreement exists and the Company is the entity surviving such transaction or if the entity surviving the transaction is not the Company, it makes provision for the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to the Holders or assumes such obligations by contract or operation of law. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.11 to the contrary, the Company shall be permitted to sell, transfer, assign or pledge any of its mortgage loan assets in the ordinary course of its business operations in financing its mortgage loan investments, including, but not limited to, warehouse lines of credit and credit financing facilities; provided, however, that it continues to comply with its minimum collateralization covenant set forth in Section 4.08 herein.

Section 4.12 Financial Covenant.The Company covenants and agrees, so long as any of the Notes are outstanding, that it will maintain a positive net worth, which includes all equity interests held by its common and preferred equity owners and any subordinated loan or credit facility that is expressly subordinated to the Notes.

Section 4.13 SEC Reports.The Company agrees to make available to the Holders, upon request, copies of periodic and annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports which the Company may be required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. To the extent it files such reports with the SEC, the Company agrees to file such reports using the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (▇▇▇▇▇) and make such reports available for review by the Collateral Agent or any Holder.

Section 4.14 Restrictions on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇ long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall not declare or pay any dividends or make any distributions of cash or other property to its common and preferred equity owners unless no Event of Default with respect to the Notes then exists or would exist immediately following the declaration or payment of such dividend or other payment. The Company further covenants and agrees that it will not, while any Note is outstanding, (i) purchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire for value any equity interest of the Company; or (ii) voluntarily purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any indebtedness of the Company that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes unless no Event of Default

shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof. Nothing in this Section 4.14 shall restrict the Company from refinancing, restructuring, making payments of principal and interest on or delivering substitute mortgage loans or other loan participation interests to meet the Company’s obligations on its Credit Facilities.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.14 to the contrary, the payment of interest or principal on, or the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value prior to the stated maturity of any of the Company’s Class A Notes or its Class 1 Notes shall not constitute a prohibited payment under this Agreement. In the event that the Company (i) makes an investment in the Company, an affiliated entity or subsidiary; (ii) redeems, retires or acquires any equity interest in debt obligations of the Company that are subordinate in interest to the Holders; or (iii) redeems, acquires or retires any equity interest in the Company, such investment or acquisition will not be deemed to be a restricted payment under this Section 4.14 if the Company concurrently delivers equity interests in the Company, or proceeds from the sale of such equity interests thereof, as payment for such purchase.

Section 4.15 Collateral Agent Compensation and Expenses. The Company shall pay the Collateral Agent’s compensation and expenses, reasonably incurred in the ordinary course of business as provided for in Section 7.08 and the Collateral Agent shall look only to the Company for such payment except as the Holders may from time to time otherwise agree.

Section 4.16 Servicing Agent for Mortgage Loans. The Collateral Agent and the Company hereby acknowledge that the Company may from time to time appoint a servicing agent to serve as custodian and bailee for a pledged mortgage loan or bond on behalf of the Company and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders. If a servicing agent is appointed for such pledged mortgage loans or bonds, it will maintain exclusive custody of the mortgage files for each pledged loan or bond for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Holders until an Event of Default occurs and fails to be cured pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company or its designated servicing agent shall be entitled to service and shall continue to service the mortgage loans pledged as Collateral under this Agreement. Collateral Agent hereby acknowledges that the Company may continue to have the mortgage loans that will serve as Collateral be serviced by its current servicer pursuant to the terms of its ECCU Loan Servicing Agreement or by the Company under its current servicing agreement. It shall be the obligation of the Company to provide sufficiently detailed and timely (not less frequently than monthly) reports to the Collateral Agent, evidencing its receipt of all payments on account for any pledged mortgage loans that are included in the Collateral.

Section 4.17 Maximum Amount of Notes.The Company shall not issue any Notes if, after giving effect to such issuance, the unpaid principal amount of Notes outstanding at any time would have an aggregate unpaid balance exceeding $80,000,000.

ARTICLE V
SUCCESSOR COMPANY

Section 5.01Merger or Consolidation.

ARTICLE VI
DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

(a)the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable and the default continues for a period of thirty (30) days;

(b)the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise and the default continues for a period of thirty (30) days;

(c)any representation, warranty, certification or statement made by the Company under or in connection with the Agreement in any certificate or report delivered by the Company pursuant to any transaction document shall prove to be untrue in any material respect when made or deemed made and delivered, and such representation, warranty, certification, statement, information or report continues to be untrue for a period of thirty (30) days after the Company is notified of such error;

(f)the Agreement shall for any reason (other than pursuant to its express terms) cease to create a valid and enforceable perfected security interest, free and clear of any adverse claim in the Collateral and the Company fails to cure such deficiency within ninety (90) days after the Company is notified of such failure; and

(vi) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(vii)is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case;

(viii)appoints a conservator, receiver, custodian or liquidating agent for the Company or for any substantial part of its property; or

(ix)orders the liquidation of the Company and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for ninety (90) days.

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code or any similar Federal or State law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, Collateral Agent, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

For purposes of this Section 6.01, a default under clauses (c) - (f) is not an Event of Default until the Collateral Agent or the Holders of a majority in interest of the principal amount owed on the Notes notifies the Company of the default and the Company fails to cure the default within the applicable cure period set forth in such notice. The notice must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a “Notice of Default.”

Section 6.02Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then the Collateral Agent may, and if the Holders of a majority in interest of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in writing to the Company and Collateral Agent so request, shall declare the principal and accrued interest on all the Notes due and payable immediately. Any notice of acceleration of the unpaid balance of the Notes sent by the Collateral Agent shall be given to the Company and the servicer of any of the mortgage loans or bonds held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral. If an Event of Default occurs and the Collateral Agent has declared all principal on the Notes to be due under the terms of the Agreement, the Company may cure the default if:

(a)the Company does so prior to the sale of any of the Collateral;

(b)any other defaults under this Agreement have been cured (except for nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of the acceleration);

(c)the expenses of the Collateral Agent and its reasonable attorneys’ fees have been paid; and

(d)any funds advanced by the Collateral Agent after an Event of Default occurs and is continuing have been repaid with interest at the Default Rate of Interest.

Section 6.03Sale of Collateral.

(a)If an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured as provided herein, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, without further notice to the Company, to exercise all rights and remedies afforded to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limiting the rights of the Collateral Agent under this section, the Collateral Agent may (a) remove all of the Collateral and all books, records, invoices, and other documentation relating thereto, and (b) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral and may sell, lease, assign, or provide options to purchase any portion of the Collateral upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices it may deem best. The Collateral Agent may require the Company to assemble the Required Documentation for the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place to be designated by the Collateral Agent reasonably convenient to the parties, and in such event the Company agrees to make available to the Collateral Agent all of the Company's facilities for the purposes of removing or taking possession of the Collateral.

(b)The Collateral Agent shall upon receipt of written requests from fifty percent (50%) in principal amount of all the outstanding Notes, sell, assign, lease, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, in whole or in part, at public or private sale upon terms and conditions established by the Collateral Agent. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral under Section 6.03 herein shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition. Any delay or omission by the Collateral Agent or the Holders in exercising any right or remedy occurring upon an Event of Default shall not constitute a waiver of any right held by the Collateral Agent or the Holders under this Agreement or acquiescence in the Event of Default.

(c)The Collateral Agent need not give such notice, however, with respect to Collateral which threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. At any public sale or disposition of the Collateral the Collateral Agent shall have the right to bid and become the purchaser of the whole or any part of the Collateral, free of any right of redemption in the Company. The proceeds from any sale or disposition of the Collateral shall be applied first to all expenses. In the event any such remaining proceeds are sufficient to pay the Obligations, any surplus shall be remitted to the Company.

(d)The Company will execute and Deliver such documents and take such other action as the Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with applicable law. Upon any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Company which may be waived. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted. The Collateral Agent,

instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the security interests in the Collateral and sell the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

Section 6.04Covenant to Pay Collateral Agent Amounts Due on the Notes. The Company covenants that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will, upon written request of the Collateral Agent, cure such Event of Default and pay forthwith for the benefit of the Holders the whole amount due with such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent, its agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Collateral Agent hereunder. If the Company fails to cure such Event of Default and pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Collateral Agent, in its own name and as Collateral Agent under this Agreement, shall be entitled to sue for and recover judgment against the Company and any other obligor on the Notes for the amount so due and unpaid pursuant to the terms of the Notes.

Section 6.05Appointment of Collateral Agent as Attorney-in-Fact. To facilitate the exercise by the Collateral Agent of the rights and remedies set forth in this Section, the Company hereby constitutes the Collateral Agent or its agents, or any other person whom the Collateral Agent may designate, as attorney-in-fact for the Company, at the Company's own cost and expense, to exercise all or any of the following powers, which being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable, shall continue until all Obligations have been paid in full and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies that the Collateral Agent may have: (a) to remove from any premises where they may be located any and all documents, instruments, files, and records relating to Collateral and any receptacles and cabinets containing the same, as may be necessary to properly administer and control the Collateral or the collections and realizations thereon; (b) to receive, open, and dispose of all mail specifically related to the Loan Fund that is addressed to the Company and to notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as the Collateral Agent may designate; and (c) to take or bring, in the Collateral Agent's name or in the name of the Company, all steps, actions, suits, or proceedings deemed by the Collateral Agent necessary or desirable to effect collection of or to realize upon the Collateral.

Section 6.06Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Agreement including, without limitations, all rights and remedies available to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. The Collateral Agent may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the mortgage notes or bonds that have been pledged to the Collateral Agent or does not produce any of such mortgage notes or bonds in the proceedings. A delay or omission by the Collateral Agent or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

Section 6.07Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 9.02 of this Agreement, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes by notice to the Collateral Agent may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences. In the event that the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes waive an existing Event of Default or continuing Event of Default, such waiver shall be binding on any non-consenting Holder. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and stops continuing. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default.

Section 6.08Appointment of Collateral Agent; Default. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Holders by a majority vote of the principal balance may remove the Company’s appointed Collateral Agent and appoint a new Collateral Agent. Upon delivery of the properly executed written instrument evidencing the appointment of the new Collateral Agent and the latter’s acceptance of such appointment by due execution of the Agreement, the power and rights of the Collateral Agent shall commence under this Agreement.

Section 6.09Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Collateral Agent or exercising any trust or power conferred on it, provided, that indemnification for the Collateral Agent’s fees and expenses shall be furnished. The Collateral Agent, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Agreement, that is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Registered Note Holders, or that may involve the Collateral Agent in personal liability.

Section 6.10Limitation on Suits. A Registered Note Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Agreement or the Notes unless:

(a)the Holder gives to the Collateral Agent written notice of a continuing Event of Default;

(b)the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Collateral Agent to pursue the remedy;

(c)such Holder or Holders offer to the Collateral Agent indemnity satisfactory to the Collateral Agent against any loss, liability or expense;

(d)the Collateral Agent does not comply with the request within sixty (60) days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and

(e)during such sixty (60) day period, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes do not give the Collateral Agent instructions inconsistent with the request.

A Registered Note Holder may not use this Agreement to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other Note Holder.

Section 6.11Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Registered Note Holder to receive payment of principal and interest on the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Registered Note Holder.

Section 6.12Liability of Company. If an Event of Default occurs under Section 6.01 (a) or (b) and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to take any and all actions it deems appropriate to collect the payment of principal and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any of the provisions of the Notes or this Agreement. To the extent an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured by the Company, the Collateral Agent may, but need not, elect to maintain possession of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to obtain and rely upon the opinion of independent consultants, lenders, accountants or other financial advisers that are familiar with the church loan market as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Collateral for such purpose.

In the event that payments received by the Collateral Agent from the disposition of, or collection of proceeds arising from, the Collateral as a result of any Event of Default are insufficient to satisfy the full amount owed on the Notes, the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to recover a judgment in its own name and as Collateral Agent of an express trust against the Company for the amount of principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and, to the extent lawful, interest and costs and expenses of collection, including expenses, disbursement and advances made by the Collateral Agent, its agents and counsel. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company’s obligation for any amounts due on the Notes which remain unpaid after the exhaustion of remedies available against the Collateral shall be subordinate in right of payment and subject to the prior payment in full of all claims for principal and interest of all current or future holders of the Company’s Class A Notes or its Class 1 Notes arising out of any occurrence prior to the date on which a payment under the Notes is, or is to be, made.

Section 6.13Collateral Agent May File Proofs of Claim. The Collateral Agent may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Collateral Agent and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property. Nothing in this Section 6.13 shall be deemed to authorize the Collateral Agent to authorize or consent to accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Collateral Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in such proceeding.

Section 6.14Priorities. If the Collateral Agent collects any money pursuant to this Article, it shall pay out the money in the following order:

First: to the Collateral Agent for amounts due under Section 7.08 of this Agreement;

Second: to the Registered Note Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, respectively; and

Third: to the Company or to such party as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

The Collateral Agent may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Registered Note Holders.

Section 6.15Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement or in any suit against the Collateral Agent for any action taken or omitted by it as Collateral Agent, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Collateral Agent, a suit by a Registered Note Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 of this Agreement, or a suit by Holders holding more than ten percent (10%) in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes.

Section 6.16Rights to Settle or Compromise. Collateral Agent may not waive or make any settlement or compromise concerning the rights of Holders, including in regard to payments of principal or interest, unless it is approved by a majority in interest of the Holders. Any waiver, settlement or compromise so approved shall be binding upon all the Holders, except if and only if required by law, the Collateral Agent may provide a procedure for any Holder so desiring to remove itself from the group settlement and to allow the Holder opting out of the group settlement to proceed to enforce its rights individually and as it sees fit.

Section 6.17Representation of All Holders. In any proceedings brought by the Collateral Agent (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement to which the Collateral Agent shall be a party), the Collateral Agent shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holder a party to any such Proceedings.

Section 6.18Notice of Event of Default. As soon as practicable after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the Company shall transmit notice thereof by mail to all Holders of the Notes, as their names and addresses appear on the books and records of the Company. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, each Holder shall be entitled to receive from the Collateral Agent or the Company, a list of all Holders of the Notes.

Section 6.19Agent May Enforce Claims Without Possession of the Notes.

Subject to this Section 9.02, if, at the time of the execution of such Supplemental Agreement, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have consented to and approved the execution thereof as herein provided, no Holder shall have any right to object to the execution of such Supplemental Agreement, or to object to any of the terms and provisions contained therein or the operation thereof, or in any manner to question the propriety of the execution thereof, or to enjoin or restrain the Collateral Agent or the Company from executing the same or from taking any action pursuant to the provisions thereof.

Section 9.03Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Section 9.06Collateral Agent to Sign Amendments.

Section 9.07Future Notes. The Company shall have the right to issue additional Notes to be secured hereby, provided the Company is not in default under any provision of this Agreement. Such additional Notes shall be issued pursuant to resolution duly adopted by the governing body of the Company; provided, however, that the additional Notes are issued pursuant to a supplement to this Agreement and have equal standing and priority with the original series of Notes issued under this Agreement. An executed copy of said Agreement, signed by the Collateral Agent, shall serve as a modification of this Agreement. Such additional Notes shall be of equal standing and priority with the original series of Notes secured hereby if all proceeds from the sale of such additional Notes become part of the Loan Fund and are used to pay the reasonable expenses of the offering of such additional Notes, to make loans or investments which are collaterally assigned to the Collateral Agent and/or to retire the previously issued Notes.

No Holder has the right to institute or continue any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Notes except through an action authorized by the Loan Agreement.

6.Deferred Interest Election. If the Holder makes this election, payment of accrued interest on this Note will be deferred and Maker shall defer all interest payable on this Note until the Payment Date by increasing the Principal due by an amount equal to each accrued interest payment otherwise payable on this Note, as of the Payment Date of such interest payment. Interest shall be payable on such increased Principal amount thereon in the manner otherwise provided herein.

7.Maker’s Election to Prepay. The Maker may at any time, upon not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Holder, elect to prepay the unpaid balance of the Principal amount and interest of the Note, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Holder the payment so required. Notice of prepayment shall be mailed by first class mail to Holder. If less than all of the category of the Notes that are issued and outstanding are prepaid, Maker shall prepay all Notes of the category on a pro rata basis. In the event of such prepayment, a new Note in the amount of Principal equal to the unpaid Principal balance of the original Note shall be issued in the name of Holder and the original Note shall be canceled. On and after the prepayment date, interest shall cease to accrue on the portion of the Principal amount prepaid. The foregoing obligation to prepay a category of Notes on a pro rata basis herein shall not in any manner limit the Maker’s right to repurchase or prepay any Note on a voluntary basis agreed to by the Holder thereof, including any prepayment of the Note prior to maturity as described below.

8.Security. This Note is secured by the Collateral assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Holder under the terms of the Loan Agreement. In the event that an Event of

B-3

Default occurs under the terms of the Loan Agreement which is not timely cured, Holder may, at its option, exercise any of its remedies under such Agreement.

9.Subordination of Notes. The Maker’s obligation to pay any deficiencies under the terms of the Note shall be subordinate in right of payment and subject to the prior payment or provision for payment, in full, of all claims for principal and interest of all present and future holders of the Company’s Class A and Class 1 Notes which arise prior to the date on which a payment under the Note is made. The subordination of this Note shall apply to any amounts remaining due and unpaid after the exhaustion of the Collateral. For purposes of this Section, the Company’s Class A Notes and Class 1 Notes shall refer to the notes offered under the Maker’s Registration Statements filed with and declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notes will not be subordinated to any Class A Notes and Class 1 Notes held by the Company, its affiliated entities, its officers, managers or members for its own account.

10.Early Presentment. Holder may, upon written notice to Maker, request prepayment of the Note by reason of the Holder’s demonstrated bona fide hardship at any time prior to maturity. Maker is under no obligation to prepay the Note. Maker will take into consideration ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s circumstances indicating family emergency or undue financial hardship. Regardless, whether to so prepay the Note shall be determined in Maker’s sole judgment. In the event Maker determines to prepay the Note, it shall prepay the unpaid balance of the Principal Amount or portion thereof, plus the accrued but unpaid interest through the date of prepayment, less an amount equal to an administrative fee not to exceed an amount equal to six (6) months’ interest on the Principal Amount of the Note prepaid.

11.Cancellation. This Note, when properly surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer, exchange or conversion, shall be delivered to Maker for cancellation. Holder may, at any time, deliver to Maker for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which Maker may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and Maker shall promptly cancel all Notes so delivered. No Notes shall be issued in lieu of or in exchange or transfer for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted. All cancelled Notes held by Maker shall be disposed of as directed by Maker.

12.Waivers. The Maker waives demand for payment, presentment for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, notice of nonpayment, notice of acceleration or maturity, and/or diligence in taking any action to collect sums owing hereunder.

13.Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Holder is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The

B-4

assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment or any other appropriate right or remedy.

14.Severability. In case any provision in this Note shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

15.California Law; Jurisdiction. This Note is made in the State of California and the provisions hereof shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, except to the extent preempted by federal law. In the event of a default hereunder, this Note may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of California, and as a condition to the issuance of this Note, Maker and Holder submit to the jurisdiction of such court regardless of their residence or where this Note or any endorsement hereof may have been executed.
