SALE AND PURCHASE OF THE ELIGIBLE LOANS

AND OTHER PORTFOLIO ASSETS

Section 2.1 Sale and Purchase of the Eligible Loans and the Other Portfolio Assets.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the conditions to Purchase set forth in Article III), on and after the Closing Date, the Seller hereby agrees to (i) sell, transfer and otherwise convey (collectively, “Sell” and any such sale, transfer and/or other conveyance, a “Sale”), from time to time, to the Purchaser, without recourse (except to the extent specifically provided herein), and the Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase, all right, title and interest of the Seller (whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and wherever located) in and to certain Sale Portfolio designated by the Seller and accepted by the Purchaser and (ii) in furtherance of the Sale, transfer, or cause the deposit into, the Collection Account of all Available Collections received by the Seller on account of any Sale Portfolio hereunder on and after the Purchase Date with respect to such Sale Portfolio, in each case, within two (2) Business Days of the receipt thereof. The Seller hereby acknowledges that each Sale to the Purchaser hereunder is absolute and irrevocable, without reservation or retention of any interest whatsoever by the Seller.

(b) To the extent the Seller desires to effectuate any Sale, the Seller shall on or prior to any Business Day prior to a Seller Termination Event execute and deliver to the Purchaser a proposed Loan Assignment identifying the Sale Portfolio to be Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on such date and to the extent such Sale is accepted for Purchase by the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall accept such Loan Assignment (each such date of acceptance, a “Purchase Date”). From and after such Purchase Date, the Sale Portfolio listed on Schedule I to the related Loan Assignment shall be deemed to be listed on Schedule I hereto and constitute part of the Sale Portfolio hereunder.

(c) On or before any Purchase Date with respect to the Sale Portfolio to be acquired by the Purchaser on such date, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with an Officer’s Certificate, in the form of Exhibit B hereto, signed by an Authorized Person certifying, as of such Purchase Date, to each of the items in Section 4.2.

(d) On and after each Purchase Date hereunder and upon payment of the Purchase Price therefor, the Purchaser shall own the Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on such Purchase Date, and the Seller shall not take any action inconsistent with such ownership and shall not claim any ownership interest in such Sale Portfolio.

(e) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the Sale and Purchase of the Sale Portfolio under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Seller; it being understood that the Seller shall be liable to the Purchaser for all representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities made by the Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to the Seller for the credit risk of the Obligors.

(f) Neither the Purchaser nor any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties) shall have any obligation or liability to any Obligor or client of the Seller (including any obligation to perform any obligation of the Seller, including with respect to any other related agreements) in respect of the Sale Portfolio. No such obligation or liability is intended to be assumed by the Purchaser or any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties) and any such assumption is expressly disclaimed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Sale of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement does not constitute and is not intended to result in a creation or assumption by the Purchaser or any assignee of the Purchaser (including the Secured Parties), of any obligation of the Seller, as lead agent, collateral agent or paying agent under any Agented Loan.

(g) In connection with each Purchase of Sale Portfolio hereunder, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Collateral Custodian (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), no later than 2:00 p.m. one Business Day prior to the related Purchase Date, a faxed or e-mailed copy of the duly executed original promissory notes of the Loans (and, in the case of any Noteless Loan, a fully executed assignment agreement) and if any Loans are closed in escrow, a certificate (in the form of Exhibit J to the Loan and Servicing Agreement) from the closing attorneys of such Loans certifying the possession of the Required Loan Documents; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall cause the Loan Checklist and the Required Loan Documents to be in the possession of the Collateral Custodian within two (2) Business Days after the related Purchase Date.

(h) In accordance with the Loan and Servicing Agreement, certain documents relating to Sale Portfolio shall be delivered to and held in trust by the Collateral Custodian for the benefit of the Purchaser and its assignees, and the Purchaser hereby instructs the Seller to cause such documents to be delivered to the Collateral Custodian. Such delivery to the Collateral Custodian of such documents and the possession thereof by the Collateral Custodian is at the will of the Purchaser and its assignees and in a custodial capacity for their benefit only.

(i) The Seller shall provide all information, and any other reasonable assistance, to the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent necessary for the Collateral Manager, the Collateral Custodian and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to conduct the management, administration and collection of the Sale Portfolio Purchased hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Loan and Servicing Agreement.

(j) In connection with the Purchase by the Purchaser of Sale Portfolio as contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller further agrees that it shall, at its own expense, ▇▇▇▇ its books and records in a manner that accurately ensures all assets which constitute Sale Portfolio are clearly marked as being held in the Purchaser’s name.

(k) The Seller further agrees to deliver to the Purchaser on or before each Purchase Date a computer file containing a true, complete and correct list of all Loans to be Sold hereunder on such Purchase Date, identified by Obligor’s name and Outstanding Balance as of the related Cut-Off Date. Such file or list shall be marked as Schedule I to the applicable Loan Assignment and shall be delivered to the Purchaser as confidential and proprietary, and is hereby incorporated into and made a part of Schedule I to this Agreement, as such Schedule I may be supplemented and amended from time to time.

(l) The Seller shall, at all times, continue to fulfill its obligations (if any remain after the Sale) under the terms of all Loan Agreements related to any Sale Portfolio purchased hereunder, including without limitation any obligations pertaining to any Retained Interest.

(m) The Seller and the Purchaser each acknowledge with respect to itself that the representations and warranties of the Seller in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof and of the Purchaser in Section 4.3 hereof, and the covenants and agreements of the Seller herein, including without limitation, in Article V and Article VI hereof, will run to and be for the benefit of the Purchaser, which has assigned the same as collateral security to the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) pursuant to the Loan and Servicing Agreement and the Collateral Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may enforce directly (without joinder of the Purchaser when enforcing against the Seller), the obligations of the Seller or the Purchaser, as applicable, with respect to breaches of such representations, warranties, covenants and all other obligations as set forth in this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Purchase Price.

The purchase price for each item of Sale Portfolio Sold to the Purchaser hereunder on the applicable Purchase Date (the “Purchase Price”) shall be in a dollar amount equal to the fair market value (which may be a combination of cash and equity contribution) of

such Loan as determined from time to time by the Seller and the Purchaser; provided, however, that the Seller shall not be bound by the Purchase Price for accounting purposes. Each of the Purchaser and the Seller hereby agree that the fair market value of each Loan Sold hereunder as of the related Purchase Date shall not be less than the Adjusted Borrowing Value of such Loan on the related Purchase Date.

Section 2.3 Payment of Purchase Price.

(a) The Purchase Price for any Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser on any Purchase Date shall be paid in a combination of: (i) immediately available funds; and (ii) if the Purchaser does not have sufficient funds to pay the full amount of the Purchase Price (after taking into account the proceeds the Purchaser expects to receive pursuant to the Advances under the Loan and Servicing Agreement), by means of a capital contribution by the Seller to the Purchaser.

(b) The portion of such Purchase Price to be paid in immediately available funds shall be paid by wire transfer on the applicable Purchase Date to an account designated by the Seller on or before such Purchase Date or by means of proper accounting entries being entered upon the accounts and records of the Seller and the Purchaser on the applicable Purchase Date.

(c) In connection with each delivery of a Loan Assignment, the Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have certified, with respect to the Sale Portfolio to be Sold by it on such day, that its representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 are true and correct in all respects on and as of such day, with the same effect as though made on and as of such day (other than any representation or warranty that is made as of a specific date), that no Seller Termination Event has occurred or would result therefrom and no event that upon the passage of time would constitute a Seller Termination Event exists or would result therefrom.

(d) Upon the payment of the Purchase Price for any Purchase, title to the Sale Portfolio included in such Purchase shall vest in the Purchaser, whether or not the conditions precedent to such Purchase and the other covenants and agreements contained herein were in fact satisfied; provided that the Purchaser shall not be deemed to have waived any claim it may have under this Agreement for the failure by the Seller in fact to satisfy any such condition precedent, covenant or agreement.

Section 2.4 Nature of the Sales.

(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Sale of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser hereunder be, and be treated for all purposes (other than tax and accounting purposes) as an absolute sale by the Seller (free and clear of any Lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance other than Permitted Liens) of such Sale Portfolio. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such Sale be deemed a pledge of the Sale Portfolio by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Sale Portfolio is held to continue to be property of the Seller, then the parties hereto agree that: (i) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be, and hereby is, a “security agreement” within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC; (ii) the

transfer of the Sale Portfolio provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of, and the Seller hereby grants, a first priority security interest (subject only to Permitted Liens) in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Sale Portfolio and all amounts payable to the holders of the Sale Portfolio in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including, without limitation, all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Controlled Accounts, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property, to secure the prompt and complete payment of a loan deemed to have been made in an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Sale Portfolio together with all of the other obligations of the Seller hereunder; (iii) the possession by the Purchaser (or the Collateral Custodian on behalf of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties) of Sale Portfolio and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be, subject to clause (iv), for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC; and (iv) acknowledgements from Persons holding such property shall be deemed acknowledgements from custodians, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under Applicable Law. The parties further agree in such event that any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Seller shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Sale Portfolio, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority (subject only to Permitted Liens) under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Purchaser shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other Applicable Law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

(b) It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Sale Portfolio Sold by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute assets owned by the Purchaser and shall not be part of the Seller’s estate in the event of the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against the Seller under any bankruptcy or similar law.

(c) The Purchaser agrees to treat, and shall cause the Seller to treat, for all purposes (other than tax and accounting purposes), the transactions effected by this Agreement as sales of assets to the Purchaser. The Seller agrees to reflect in the Seller’s financial records and to include a note in its the publicly filed annual and quarterly financial statements of indicating that: (i) assets related to transactions (including transactions pursuant to the Transaction Documents) that do not meet SFAS 140 requirements for accounting sale treatment are reflected in its consolidated balance sheet as finance receivables pledged and non-recourse, secured borrowings and (ii) those assets are owned by a special purpose entity that is consolidated in its financial statements, and the creditors of that special purpose entity have received ownership and/or security interests in such assets and such assets are not intended to be available to the creditors of sellers (or any affiliate of the sellers) of such assets to that special purpose entity.
