To request the funding of any Loan hereunder, an Authorized Person of Borrower shall deliver to Agent not later than 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the Business Day at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of such proposed Loan, by facsimile or electronic mail transmission, an Overcollateralization Ratio Certificate and a Borrowing Notice, and setting forth all of the information required to be set forth therein, including without limitation, requested date of such Loan (which shall be a Business Day during the Availability Period), the amount of the Loan requested (which, on the Closing Date shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and on any date thereafter shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000,000 or, in each case, a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof). Borrower may not request, and the Lenders shall not be required to fund, more than two (2) Loans during any calendar month.

(b) Funding of Borrowings. Each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of each Loan required to be made hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 Noon, New York time, to the account of Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. Agent will make such Loans available to Borrower by wire transfer of the proceeds of such Loans to the Designated Account at the direction of the Borrower or to such other account as Agent and Borrower agree. The failure of any Lender to make the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Loan required to be made hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make the proceeds of its Pro Rata Share of any Loan required to be made hereunder. No Lender shall be obligated to fund any Loan after Availability Period.

(c) Independent Obligations. All Loans shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(d) Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 14.1) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to such Lender and its registered assigns.

2.3 Prepayments and Scheduled Payments of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay Loans in each case in whole or in part, subject to prior written notice in accordance with Section 2.3(d); provided that all optional prepayments shall be accompanied by any amounts due under Section 2.3(g)(i) and payment in full of any other interest, fees, costs and expenses.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments; Additional Collateral.

(i) If, at any time, the Overcollateralization Ratio is less than or equal to 140% (the “Overcollateralization Deficiency”), the Borrower shall immediately prepay the principal of the Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary for the Overcollateralization Ratio to be at least 150% by depositing such amount in the Agent’s Account for the account of the Lenders, and Agent shall distribute such amounts to each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.3(b), in the event of an Overcollateralization Deficiency, at Borrower’s option, Borrower may, in lieu of making a prepayment required in the first sentence of this Section 2.3(b)(i), either (A) pledge to Agent in accordance with the terms hereof within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such Overcollateralization Deficiency such additional Eligible Notes Receivable or (B) deposit Unrestricted Cash in the Collection Account, in each case, in an amount sufficient to cause the Overcollateralization Ratio at such time to be at least 150%.

(ii) After the termination of the Availability Period, if Borrower receives any payment of principal on any Note Receivable, Borrower shall, on the applicable Payment Date, prepay the principal of the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such principal payment received on such Note Receivable by depositing such amount in the Agent’s Account for the account of the Lenders, and Agent shall distribute such amounts to each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

(c) Repayments from Collection Account. On each Payment Date, or at more frequent intervals at the discretion of Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts in the Collection Account shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.3(f).

(d) Notices. Borrower shall notify Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile or email transmission) of any optional prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.3(a) not later than 12:00 Noon, New York time, three (3) Business Day before the date of such prepayment. Borrower shall notify Agent of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(b) as soon as practicable. Each such notice shall be irrevocable (provided that a notice of prepayment delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied) and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid, and the section of this Agreement pursuant to which such prepayment is to be made. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, Agent shall advise each Lender of the contents thereof, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans of Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(e) Prepayments Accompanied by Interest. All prepayments of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be accompanied by accrued interest through the date of prepayment, together with any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11(e).

(f) Apportionment and Application of Payments.

(i) So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, any amounts in the Collection Account constituting Principal Collections shall be applied to prepay the principal of the Loans on the applicable Payment Date, to each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share; provided that, solely during the Availability Period, if the Overcollateralization Ratio is equal to or greater than 150% and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amounts shall not be applied in such manner and shall be made available for reinvestment by Borrower in accordance with Section 6.18(c).

(g) Prepayment Premium. Borrower hereby agrees that in addition to any other amounts due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document:

(i) Optional Prepayments. If Borrower prepays or pays any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Borrower shall pay an amount equal to (A) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 3% of the Closing Date Commitment, (B) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made during the period commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 2% of the Closing Date Commitment and (C) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made during the period commencing on the second anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 1% of the Closing Date Commitment; or

(ii) Application Event or Event of Default. If Borrower is otherwise required to pay any principal amount of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(f)(iii) (except with respect to any Application Event pursuant solely to clause (d) of the definition of “Application Event’) or 9.1, Borrower shall pay an amount equal to the product of (A) the principal amount of the Loans so prepaid and (B) (1) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 3%, (2) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made during the period commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 2% and (3) in the case of any such prepayment or payment made during the period commencing on the second anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the day immediately preceding the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 1%.

2.4 Payments Generally.

(a) Borrower promises to pay the Obligations (including principal, interest, fees, costs, and expenses) in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which the Obligations become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) All payments to be made by Borrower in respect of the Obligations shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrower in respect of the Obligations shall be made to Agent, for its own account or for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, as the case may be, via wire transfer of Dollars in immediately available funds on the date such payment is due and payable by 1:00 p.m., New York time. Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to the account of such Lender notified to Agent from time to time. All payments received by Agent after 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the date such payments are due and payable shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day, and any applicable interest or fees shall continue to accrue thereon until such Business Day.

(c) If any payment to be made by Borrower in respect of the Obligations shall come 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 be reflected in computing any applicable interest or fees.

(d) Unless Borrower shall have notified Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to Agent hereunder, that Borrower will not make such payment, Agent may assume that Borrower will timely make such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment is not in fact made to Agent in a timely manner in immediately available funds, then each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender, in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A notice of Agent to Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.4(d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(e) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds to make any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds to make Loans in any particular place or manner.

(f) All obligations of the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement (including obligations to make Loans) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to purchase its participation.

2.5 Interest Rates: Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.5(b), interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loans will accrue at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 6.0%. All calculations of interest shall be computed on a 30/360 Basis.

(b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, automatically without notice upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default (i) interest (including post-petition interest accruing in, or which would have accrued but for any Insolvency Proceeding), whether or not allowed or allowable, on the Loans will accrue and be charged on the outstanding principal balance thereof for each day at the Default Rate and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, interest (including any interest that accrues after the commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding or would have accrued but for the commencement of such Insolvency Proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in whole or in part as a claim in any such Insolvency Proceeding) will accrue and be charged for each day at the Default Rate on any payments of interest that are not paid when due and any fees and other amounts that are then due and payable hereunder. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that payment or acceptance of interest at the Default Rate is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Agent or any Lender.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.5(b), interest on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on each Payment Date with respect to the Interest Period most recently ended, on the date of any payment or prepayment of all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Loans (on the outstanding principal amount so prepaid) and on the Maturity Date. Interest hereunder and under the Notes shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.

(d) Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which such Loan is first made hereunder and for each day on which such Loan remains outstanding thereunder, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which such Loan is made shall, subject to Section 2.5(b), bear interest for one day.

(e) In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable Law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

2.6 Reserved.

2.7 Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to the Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into the Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 2:00 p.m. (New York time). If any payment item is received into the Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.8 Designated Account. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrower, any Loan requested by Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account at the direction of the Borrower.

2.9 Reserved.

2.10 Fees. Borrower shall pay the following fees and charges, which fees and charges shall be non-refundable when paid (irrespective of whether this Agreement is terminated thereafter):

(a) Unused Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, an unused fee equal to the 1.0% per annum on the daily amount of the aggregate Commitments then in effect (assuming for the purpose of calculation hereof that all Loans requested by Borrower and which Borrower is entitled to receive in accordance with this Agreement have been fully funded) (the “Unused Fee”). The Unused Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, and shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar month, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date and ending on the date on which the Availability Period terminates. All Unused Fees shall be computed on a 30 /360 Basis, which fees shall be pro-rated for any portions of a month comprising less than thirty (30) days.

(b) Fees Under Fee Letter. As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, Borrower shall pay to Agent for the account of Agent the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.

(c) Audit, Appraisal, and Valuation Charges. For the separate account of Agent, Borrower shall pay to Agent audit, appraisal, and valuation fees and charges as follows (i) the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for each financial or collateral audit or appraisal of Borrower or the Collateral performed by personnel employed by Agent, and (ii) the actual charges paid or incurred by Agent if it elects to employ the services of one or more third Persons to perform financial or collateral audits or appraisals of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or to appraise the Collateral or any portion thereof; provided that (A) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent will not conduct more than one, and Borrower will not be charged for more than one, financial or collateral inspections, audits or appraisals during any calendar quarter and (B) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, none of Borrower, Horizon nor Horizon Management will be charged for an aggregate amount in excess of $25,000 for fees and charges pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) during any calendar year covering financial or collateral inspections, audits or appraisals pursuant to this Agreement or the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

2.11 Taxes; Yield Protection; Illegality.

(a) Taxes.

(i) Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. If any Taxes are so required to be deducted or withheld, Borrower or Agent (as the case may be) shall make the required deductions or withholdings and shall timely pay the full amount of deducted or withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after all such required deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11(a)(i)) have been made, Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum that it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

(ii) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other intangible, recording, filing or similar Taxes which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(iii) Borrower agrees to indemnify Agent and each Lender for (A) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any Governmental Authority on, or otherwise attributable to, amounts payable under this Section 2.11(a)) paid by Agent and such Lender and (B) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Payment under this Section 2.11(a)(iii) shall be made within ten (10) days after the date the Lender or Agent makes a demand therefor.

(iv) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to any Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

(v) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of United States withholding tax with respect to any payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Agent, on or prior to the date that such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement and from time to time thereafter if any form or certification it provided becomes inaccurate or obsolete or as prescribed by applicable Law or as reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent, such properly completed and duly executed documentation as prescribed by applicable Law and such other reasonably requested information as will permit such payments to be made without withholding tax or at a reduced rate of withholding tax. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender that is not a “United States person” (as such term is defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC) shall deliver to Borrower and Agent, on or prior to the date that such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the expiration or invalidity of the applicable form or other documentation or upon the request of Borrower or Agent) whichever of the following is applicable: (A) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party or an exemption provided under the IRC; (B) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI establishing that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (C) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the IRC, (1) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the IRC and two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN; or (D) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding tax, duly completed together with such supplementary documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding tax or at a reduced rate of withholding tax. In addition, each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC) shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Loan Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the expiration or invalidity of the form described below or upon the request of Borrower or Agent) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying or otherwise establishing that such Lender is not subject to United States federal backup withholding.

(vi) In the event the Agent or any Lender receives actual notice from a Governmental Authority of its liability for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, such Agent or Lender shall notify the Borrower of any related claim for compensation under Section 2.11(a)(iii) within one hundred and eighty (180) days of receiving such Governmental Authority notice, provided, however, that the amount of compensation to which the Agent or any Lender is entitled shall not be affected by the failure of such Agent or Lender to satisfy the requirements of this Section 2.11(a)(vi), except to the extent that the Borrower is actually prejudiced as a result thereof.

(vii) If Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i) or Section 2.11(a)(ii), then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to such Lender’s overall internal policies of general application and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (A) would eliminate or reduce the amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i) or Section 2.11(a)(ii) in the future and (B) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender; provided that nothing in this Section 2.11(a)(vii) shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i) or Section 2.11(a)(ii). Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(viii) If Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole good faith discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11(a), so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over an amount equal to such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 2.11(a) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority) with respect to such refund); provided that Borrower, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Agent hereunder) to Agent or such Lender in the event that Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.11(a)(viii), in no event will Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(viii) to the extent such payment would place Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 2.11(a)(viii) shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to Borrower or any other Person.

(ix) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Borrower contained in this Section 2.11(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender to continue to make Loans or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice thereof to Borrower through Agent. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Agent), either (i) prepay in full all Loans, either on the last day of the current Interest Period in respect of thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain Loans until such date, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to do so, or (ii) at the option of Borrower, pay interest on such Lender’s Loans at a rate per annum, as determined by such Lender, that will provide a corresponding yield to such Lender compared to the yield that such Lender would have been realized if its Loans had continued to accrue interest at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate (taking into account any increased cost to such Lender of continuing to maintain Loans). Upon any such prepayment, Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid. Each Lender agrees make Loans through a different office of such Lender if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

(c) Inability to Determine Rates. If Agent determines that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the interest rate as set forth in Section 2.5 based upon the LIBOR Rate for any period for any Loans, or that such interest rate with respect to any period for any Loans does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of maintaining such Loans, Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, Borrower shall pay to each Lender such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender for the cost of maintaining such Loans.

(d) Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

(i) If any Lender determines that, as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of funding or maintaining Loans at the Interest Rate based upon the LIBOR Rate or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.11(d)(i), any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.11(a) shall govern), or (B) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income (or franchise taxes imposed (in lieu of net income taxes)) by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized or maintains its Loans), or any acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(ii) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, or compliance by such Lender therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or the making or maintaining by such Lender of its Loans (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, shall in each case be deemed to be an introduction of or change in Law under this Section 2.11(f) or any other provision of any Loan Document, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

(e) Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for, and hold such Lender harmless from, any loss (other than any loss of anticipated profits) and any cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(i) any failure by Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to the making of any Loan after having delivered a Borrowing Notice with respect thereto; or

(ii) any payment or prepayment of any Loan (whether by reason of acceleration or otherwise) on a day other than on the last day of its Interest Period, the Maturity Date, on the date specified in a notice of prepayment issued in accordance with Section 2.03(c);

(iii) any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to purchase, hold or make Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, but excluding any loss of anticipated profits. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by Borrower to any Lender under this Section 2.11(e), such Lender shall be deemed to have funded Loans at the interest rate applicable thereto by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not the Loans were in fact so funded; in each case, provided that such Lender delivers to Borrower a certificate showing in reasonable detail the calculations used in determining the amounts payable by Borrower under this Section 2.11(e).

(f) Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

(i) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its lending or purchasing office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(ii) Any Lender or Agent claiming additional amounts payable under this Section 2.11 shall deliver a certificate to Borrower and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement therefor setting forth the supporting calculations which statement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(g) Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all Obligations hereunder.

(h) Substitution of Lenders.

(i) In the event that (1) any Lender makes a claim under Section 2.11(d), (2) it becomes illegal for any Lender to continue to make Loans or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate and such Lender so notifies Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11(b), or (3) Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a) (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), Borrower may substitute any Lender and, if reasonably acceptable to Agent, any other Eligible Transferee (a “Substitute Institution”) for such Affected Lender hereunder, after delivery of a written notice (a “Substitution Notice”) by Borrower to Agent and the Affected Lender within a reasonable time (in any case not to exceed ninety (90) days) following the occurrence of any of the events described above that Borrower intends to make such substitution; provided that, if more than one Lender claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by Borrower within thirty (30) days of each other, then Borrower may substitute all, but not (except to the extent Borrower has already substituted one of such Affected Lenders before Borrower’s receipt of the other Affected Lenders’ claim) less than all, Lenders making such claims.

(ii) If the Substitution Notice was properly issued under this Section 2.11(h), the Affected Lender shall sell, and the Substitute Institution shall purchase, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents, and the Substitute Institution shall assume, and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of all prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Lender under the Loan Documents (other than in respect of any damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable Law) in respect of any such unperformed obligations). Such purchase and sale (and the corresponding assignment of all rights and claims hereunder) shall be effective on (and not earlier than) the later of (i) the receipt by the Affected Lender of its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to it pursuant to the Loan Documents, together with any other Obligations owing to it, (ii) the receipt by Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to it and Borrower whereby the Substitute Institution shall agree to be bound by the terms hereof and (iii) the payment in full to the Affected Lender in cash of all fees, unreimbursed costs and expenses and indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date. Upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption, the Substitute Institution shall become a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that, if it becomes an Affected Lender and its rights and claims are assigned hereunder to a Substitute Institution pursuant to this Section 2.11(h), it shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence such assignment, together with any Note held by it; provided that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance or deliver such Notes shall not render such assignment invalid.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, this Section 2.11(h) shall not apply to Fortress Credit Co LLC and any of its Affiliates and no such person shall at any time be an “Affected Lender” hereunder.

4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, a continuing security interest in all of Borrower’s right, title, and interest in all currently existing and hereafter acquired or arising Borrower Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and all of the Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. The Agent’s Liens in and to the Borrower Collateral shall attach to all Borrower Collateral without further act on the part of Agent or Borrower. Anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, except for Permitted Dispositions, Borrower and its Subsidiaries have no authority, express or implied, to dispose of any item or portion of the Collateral.

4.2 Negotiable Collateral. In the event that any Borrower Collateral, including proceeds, is evidenced by or consists of Negotiable Collateral other than Notes Receivable previously delivered to and being held by the Agent or the Collateral Custodian, and if and to the extent that Agent determines that perfection or priority of Agent’s security interest is dependent on or enhanced by possession, Borrower, promptly upon the request of Agent, shall endorse and deliver physical possession of such Negotiable Collateral and all agreements and documents related thereto to Agent or the Collateral Custodian. All Notes Receivable shall be delivered to Agent or the Collateral Custodian pursuant to this Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement to hold for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, duly endorsed in blank or as follows on the back of the signature page thereof or on a separate allonge affixed thereto:

“Pay to the Order of ________________________, without recourse

HORIZON CREDIT III LLC

Its: [Authorized Person].”

4.3 Collection of Accounts, General Intangibles, and Negotiable Collateral. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent or Agent’s designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of Borrower and makers of Notes Receivable that the Accounts, Notes Receivable, chattel paper, or General Intangibles have been assigned to Agent or that Agent has a security interest therein, (b) cause a replacement servicer to take possession of, and collect, Borrower’s Accounts, or (c) collect Borrower’s Accounts, Notes Receivable, chattel paper, or General Intangibles directly and such collection costs and expenses shall be Obligations.

4.4 Filing of Financing Statements; Commercial Tort Claims; Delivery of Additional Documentation Required.

(a) Borrower authorizes Agent to file any financing statement necessary or desirable to effectuate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, and any continuation statement or amendment with respect thereto, in any appropriate filing office. Such financing statements may describe the Collateral in the same manner as described herein or may contain an indication or description of collateral that describes such property in any other manner as the Agent may determine, in its sole discretion, is necessary or prudent to ensure the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Agent in connection herewith, including, without limitation, describing such property as “All assets whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or “All personal property whether now owned or hereafter acquired” or words of similar meaning. Borrower hereby ratifies the filing of any financing statement filed prior to the date hereof.

(b) If Borrower or its Subsidiaries acquire any commercial tort claims after the date hereof, Borrower shall promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days after such acquisition) deliver to Agent a written description of such commercial tort claim and shall deliver a written agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, pursuant to which Borrower or its Subsidiary, as applicable, shall grant a perfected security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to such commercial tort claim to Agent, as security for the Obligations (a “Commercial Tort Claim Assignment”).

(c) At any time upon the request of Agent, Borrower shall execute or deliver to Agent, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to execute or deliver to Agent, any and all fixture filings, security agreements, pledges, assignments, Commercial Tort Claim Assignments, endorsements of certificates of title, and all other documents (collectively, the “Additional Documents”) that Agent may request in its Permitted Discretion, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, to create, perfect, and continue perfected or to better perfect the Agent’s Liens in the assets of Borrower and its Subsidiaries (whether now owned or hereafter arising or acquired, tangible or intangible, real or personal), to create and perfect Liens in favor of Agent in any owned Real Property acquired after the Closing Date, and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated hereby and under the other Loan Documents. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, Borrower authorizes Agent to execute any such Additional Documents in Borrower’s name and authorizes Agent to file such executed Additional Documents in any appropriate filing office. In addition, on such periodic basis as Agent shall require, Borrower shall (i) provide Agent with a report of all new material patentable, copyrightable, or trademarkable materials acquired or generated by Borrower or its Subsidiaries during the prior period, (ii) cause all material patents, copyrights, and trademarks acquired or generated by Borrower or its Subsidiaries that are not already the subject of a registration with the appropriate filing office (or an application therefor diligently prosecuted) to be registered with such appropriate filing office in a manner sufficient to impart constructive notice of Borrower’s or the applicable Subsidiary’s ownership thereof, and (iii) cause to be prepared, executed, and delivered to Agent supplemental schedules to the applicable Loan Documents to identify such patents, copyrights, and trademarks as being subject to the security interests created thereunder; provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall register with the U.S. Copyright Office any unregistered copyrights (whether in existence on the Closing Date or thereafter acquired, arising, or developed) unless (i) the Borrower provides Agent with written notice of its intent to register such copyrights not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed registration, and (ii) prior to such registration, the applicable Person executes and delivers to Agent a copyright security agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, supplemental schedules to any existing copyright security agreement, or such other documentation as Agent reasonably deems necessary in order to perfect and continue perfected Agent’s Liens on such copyrights following such registration.

(d) Borrower hereby assigns to Agent any and all rights of Borrower to access any and all storage facilities where any Collateral or information relating to Collateral may be stored and Borrower hereby authorizes Agent, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, to enter upon any such storage facilities and remove any contents thereof in connection with Agent’s exercise of its remedies hereunder.

4.5 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes, and appoints Agent (and any of Agent’s officers, employees, or agents designated by Agent) as Borrower’s true and lawful attorney, with power to (a) if Borrower refuses to, or fails timely to execute and deliver any of the documents described in Section 4.4, sign the name of Borrower on any of the documents described in Section 4.4, (b) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or ▇▇▇▇ of lading relating to the Collateral, drafts against Account Debtors, or notices to Account Debtors, (c) send requests or make telephone inquiries for verification of Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ Accounts or Notes Receivable, (d) endorse Borrower’s name on any of its payment items (including all of its Collections) that may come into the Lender Group’s possession, (e) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s policies of insurance and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance, and (f) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ Accounts, Notes Receivable, chattel paper, or General Intangibles directly with Account Debtors or makers of Notes Receivable, for amounts and upon terms that Agent determines to be reasonable, in Agent’s Permitted Discretion, and Agent may cause to be executed and delivered any documents and releases that Agent determines to be necessary. The appointment of Agent as Borrower’s attorney, and each and every one of its rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been fully and finally repaid and performed and the Lender Group’s obligations to extend credit hereunder are terminated.

4.6 Right to Inspect and Verify. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.10(c), Agent (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, from time to time hereafter upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours (provided that reasonable notice and requirements to inspect during normal business hours shall not apply if a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) (i) to inspect the Books and make copies or abstracts thereof, (ii) to communicate directly with any and all Account Debtors and makers of Notes Receivable to verify the existence and terms thereof, and (iii) to check, test, and appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, in order to verify Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ financial condition or the amount, quality, value, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral; and Borrower shall permit any designated representative of Agent to visit and inspect any of the properties of the Borrower to inspect and to discuss its finances and properties and Collateral.

4.7 Control Agreements. Borrower agrees that it will and will cause its Subsidiaries to give Agent control in accordance with Sections 8-106, 9-104, 9-105, 9-106, and 9-107 of the Code with respect to all of its or their Securities Accounts, Deposit Accounts, electronic chattel paper, Investment Property, and letter-of-credit rights. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may notify any bank or securities intermediary to liquidate or transfer the balances of the applicable Deposit Account or Securities Account or any related Investment Property maintained or held thereby and remit the proceeds thereof to Agent’s Account or the deposit account of Agent designated in the relevant Control Agreement.

4.8 Servicing of Notes Receivable. Until such time as Agent shall notify the Borrower of the revocation of such right after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Borrower (a) shall, at its own expense (including through the application of available funds pursuant to Section 2.3(b)), cause the Servicer to service all of the Notes Receivable, including, without limitation, (i) the billing, posting and maintaining complete records applicable thereto, and (ii) taking of such action with respect to the Notes Receivable as the Borrower may deem advisable, and (b) may grant, in the ordinary course of business, to any maker of a Note Receivable, any adjustment to which such maker may be lawfully entitled, and may take such other actions relating to the settling of any such maker’s claims as may be commercially reasonable, but in each case in accordance with the Required Procedures. Agent may, at its option, at any time or from time to time, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, revoke the collection and servicing rights given to Borrower herein by giving notice to Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

4.9 Borrower’s Perfection. Borrower represents to the Lender Group that: (a) all necessary financing statements and (b) all related financing statement amendments or assignments in order to cause Borrower to be properly noted as secured party of record with respect thereto and to have a perfected first priority security interest in all personal property securing Borrower’s Notes Receivable, have been filed in all filing locations as may be required to perfect and protect in favor of Borrower all security interests, liens and rights evidenced by all Note Receivable Documents with respect to all personal property securing Borrower’s Notes Receivable existing as of the Closing Date, and that such filings remain effective as of the Closing Date. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Agent, Borrower covenants that it will take all action necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such filings so long as Borrower has any commitment to extend credit under such Note Receivable or any sum remains owing under such Note Receivable. Borrower represents to the Lender Group that all filings and recordations, and all related assignments, with respect to Notes Receivable acquired by Borrower after the Closing Date will be filed or recorded in all jurisdictions as may be required to perfect and protect in favor of Borrower all of Borrower’s liens or interests evidenced by Note Receivable Documents acquired by Borrower after the Closing Date, and that Borrower will take all action necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such filings so long as Borrower has any commitment to extend credit under such Note Receivable or any sum remains owing under such Note Receivable. Agent is authorized to file any UCC-3 statements of continuation, assignment or amendment as it may determine in its Permitted Discretion to be necessary or desirable to enable it to protect and maintain Agent’s Liens in Collateral.

4.10 Note Receivable Documents. Borrower or Servicer will maintain all Note Receivable Documents (other than Notes Receivable which have been delivered to Collateral Custodian pursuant to Section 4.2) in a secure manner in a location with fire, casualty and theft protection satisfactory to Agent. Borrower or Servicer will provide to Agent copies of any Note Receivable Documents as Agent may request.

4.11 Release of Notes Receivable.

(a) When a Note Receivable that is in the possession of Agent or the Collateral Custodian is repaid in its entirety, Agent shall return or shall authorize the Collateral Custodian to return such Note Receivable and any related original Required Asset Documents to Borrower to facilitate its payment and Agent shall release Agent’s Liens in such Note Receivable and any Related Property promptly upon Agent’s receipt of the final payment relating to such Note Receivable.

(b) When a Note Receivable is sold by Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Agent shall release Agent’s Liens (provided that all proceeds received from Borrower from such Note Receivable prior to or contemporaneously with such release shall be deposited in the Lockbox Account and be subject to Agent’s Lien hereunder) in such Note Receivable and any Related Property and if such Note Receivable or any related original Required Asset Documents are in the possession of Agent or the Collateral Custodian, Agent shall transfer or shall authorize the Collateral Custodian to transfer such Note Receivable and such related original Required Asset Documents to the purchaser thereof or as otherwise directed by such purchaser against payment of the agreed amount therefor.

(c) In the event Borrower’s collateral assignment to Agent of any mortgage and loan documents relating to a Note Receivable has been recorded and such Note Receivable is (i) repaid in its entirety or (ii) sold by Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then Agent shall, at Borrower’s sole expense, execute a reassignment or release of such mortgage and loan documents for the benefit of Borrower on forms prepared by Borrower and acceptable to Agent in its Permitted Discretion; provided that all proceeds received from Borrower from such Note Receivable prior to or contemporaneously with such release shall be deposited in the Lockbox Account and be subject to Agent’s Lien hereunder.

6.8 Insurance.

(a) At Borrower’s expense, maintain insurance respecting its and its Subsidiaries’ assets wherever located covering loss or damage by fire, theft, explosion, and all other hazards and risks as ordinarily are insured against by other Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses. Borrower also shall maintain general liability insurance, as well as insurance against fraud, larceny, embezzlement, and criminal misappropriation. All such policies of insurance shall be in such amounts and with such insurance companies as are reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Borrower shall deliver copies of all such policies to Agent with an endorsement naming Agent as the sole loss payee (under a satisfactory lender’s loss payable endorsement) or additional insured, as appropriate. Each policy of insurance or endorsement shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever. Borrower shall also ensure that Servicer maintains similar insurance coverages for the benefit of Borrower under the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

(b) Borrower shall give Agent prompt notice of any loss covered by such insurance. Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any claims under any such insurance policies and shall give Agent prompt notice of any material development with respect to such claim, including any proposed compromise or settlement of such claim. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the exclusive right to give notice of, adjust and compromise claims under any such insurance policies, in accordance with Agent’s Permitted Discretion. Any monies received as payment for any loss under any insurance policy mentioned above (other than liability insurance policies) or as payment of any award or compensation for condemnation or taking by eminent domain, shall be paid over to Agent to be applied at the option of Agent or the Required Lenders either to the prepayment of the Obligations or shall be disbursed to Borrower under staged payment terms reasonably satisfactory to Agent for application to the cost of repairs, replacements, or restorations. Any such repairs, replacements, or restorations shall be effected with reasonable promptness and shall be of a value at least equal to the value of the items of property destroyed prior to such damage or destruction.

(c) Borrower will not and will not suffer or permit its Subsidiaries to take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this Section 6.8, unless Agent is included thereon as an additional insured or loss payee under a lender’s loss payable endorsement.

From and after the Closing Date, Borrower shall conduct its own business in its own name and take all reasonable steps, including, without limitation, all steps that Agent may from time to time reasonably request, to maintain Borrower’s identity and existence as a separate legal entity and to make it manifest to third parties that Borrower is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of its Affiliates.

(b) observe all limited liability company formalities as a distinct entity, and ensure that all actions relating to the dissolution or liquidation of Borrower or the initiation or participation in, acquiescence in, or consent to any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or similar proceeding involving Borrower, are duly authorized by unanimous vote of its directors;

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, any notification pursuant to the foregoing provision will not cure or remedy the effect of the prior untrue statement of a material fact or omission of any material fact nor shall any such notification have the effect of amending or modifying this Agreement or any of the Schedules hereto.

6.15 Formation of Subsidiaries. Not form or acquire any Subsidiary of Borrower on or after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Agent, and at the time that Borrower forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Closing Date with the prior written consent of the Agent, Borrower shall, if and to the extent required by Agent, (a) cause such new Subsidiary to provide to Agent a joinder to this Agreement, together with such other security documents (including mortgages with respect to any Real Property of such new Subsidiary), as well as appropriate financing statements (and with respect to all property subject to a mortgage, fixture filings), all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent (including being sufficient to grant Agent a first priority Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary), (b) provide to Agent a pledge agreement and appropriate certificates and powers or financing statements, hypothecating all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Subsidiary, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, and (c) provide to Agent all other documentation, including one or more opinions of counsel satisfactory to Agent, if requested by Agent, which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above (including policies of title insurance or other documentation with respect to all property subject to a mortgage).

9. THE LENDER GROUP’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default, Agent may, and, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall, in addition to any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document or by applicable Law, do any one or more of the following:

(a) declare the Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrower shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower;

(b) declare the Availability Period and the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Availability Period and the Commitments shall immediately be terminated together with any obligation of any Lender hereunder to make Loans;

(c) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Borrower’s Account Debtors and makers of Notes Receivable for amounts and upon terms which Agent considers advisable, and in such cases, Agent will apply any amounts received by Agent in payment of such disputed Accounts or Notes Receivable to the payment of Obligations as set forth in Section 2.3(f)(iii);

(d) exercise or assign any and all rights to collect, manage, and service the Notes Receivables, including the rights to (i) receive, process and account for all Collections in respect of Notes Receivables, (ii) appoint a Back-up Servicer or any other successor Servicer, (iii) terminate the Sale and Servicing Agreement and assign servicing responsibilities to any replacement servicer, (iv) without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make any payments as are reasonably necessary or desirable in connection with the Sale and Servicing Agreement or any other agreement that Agent enters into with any replacement servicer, and (v) take all lawful actions and procedures which Agent or such assignee deems necessary to enforce any and all rights of Borrower under any Note Receivable Document or collect the amounts due to Borrower in connection with Notes Receivables (with all amounts incurred by Agent pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) being Lender Group Expenses);

(e) without notice to or demand upon Borrower or any other Person, make such payments and do such acts as Agent considers necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the Collateral if Agent so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Agent at a place that Agent may designate which is reasonably convenient to both parties. Borrower authorizes Agent to enter the premises where the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien that in Agent’s determination appears to conflict with the priority of Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith (which expenses shall be Obligations). With respect to any of Borrower’s owned or leased premises, Borrower hereby grants Agent a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise any of the Lender Group’s rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity, or otherwise;

(f) without notice to Borrower (such notice being expressly waived), and without constituting an acceptance of any collateral in full or partial satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the Code), set off and apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by the Lender Group, or (ii) Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower held by the Lender Group;

(g) hold, as cash collateral, any and all balances and deposits of Borrower held by the Lender Group to secure the full and final repayment of all of the Obligations;

(h) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for herein) the Borrower Collateral. Borrower hereby grants to Agent a license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Borrower Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Borrower Collateral and Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to the Lender Group’s benefit;

(i) sell the Borrower Collateral at either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including Borrower’s premises) as Agent determines is commercially reasonable. It is not necessary that the Borrower Collateral be present at any such sale;

(j) except in those circumstances where no notice is required under the Code, Agent shall give notice of the disposition of the Borrower Collateral as follows:

(i) Agent shall give Borrower a notice in writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale is a private sale or some other disposition other than a public sale is to be made of the Borrower Collateral, the time on or after which the private sale or other disposition is to be made; and

(ii) the notice shall be personally delivered or mailed, postage prepaid, to Borrower as provided in Section 12, at least 10 days before the earliest time of disposition set forth in the notice; no notice needs to be given prior to the disposition of any portion of the Borrower Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market;

(k) Agent, on behalf of the Lender Group, may credit bid and purchase at any public sale;

(l) Agent may seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Borrower Collateral or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, may seek the appointment of such a receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing;

(m) exercise any and all rights of Borrower under the Sale and Servicing Agreement or assume or assign any and all rights and responsibilities to collect, manage, and service the Notes Receivables, including (i) the responsibility for the receipt, processing and accounting for all payments on account of the Notes Receivables, (ii) periodically sending demand notices and statements to the Account Debtors or makers of Notes Receivable, (iii) enforcing legal rights with respect to the Notes Receivables, including hiring attorneys to do so to the extent Agent or such assignee deems such engagement necessary, and (iv) taking all lawful actions and procedures which Agent or such assignee deems necessary to collect the Notes Receivables (with all amounts incurred by Agent pursuant to this Section 9.1(m) being Lender Group Expenses); and

(n) exercise all other rights and remedies available to Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable Law.

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.4 or Section 8.5, in addition to the remedies set forth above, without any notice to Borrower or any other Person or any act by the Lender Group, the Availability Period and the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the Obligations, inclusive of all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and all other amounts owing under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable and Borrower shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower.

9.2 Special Rights of the Lender Group in Respect of Notes Receivable and Purchased Participations. Without limiting Section 9.1, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default involving the failure by Borrower, Servicer or any replacement servicer to perform its servicing obligations in respect of any Notes Receivable or purchased participations, or failure to take any action necessary to preserve the ongoing performance, enforceability or value thereof, Agent shall have the right to take such action as Agent may deem necessary in its Permitted Discretion to preserve the ongoing performance and enforceability of any such Note Receivable or purchased participation and preserve the value thereof, respectively, including without limitation, taking any action that Borrower or Servicer is required or authorized to take in respect thereof or to otherwise properly service same, or contract with any Person to take or perform any such actions. Borrower hereby grants to Agent, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, a special power of attorney (which shall be irrevocable, coupled with an interest and include power of substitution) to take any action authorized in this paragraph until the earliest to occur of the waiver of such Event of Default, the cure of such Event of Default to Agent’s satisfaction, or the payment in full of the Obligations. Any advances, payments or other costs or expenses made or incurred by Agent in taking any action authorized under this paragraph shall be Lender Group Expenses and included within the Obligations and reimbursed to Agent on demand or, at Agent’s Permitted Discretion charged and treated as Loans. Agent’s rights under this Section 9.2 are cumulative of all other rights of the Agent under the Loan Documents and may be exercised in whole or in part, in Agent’s Permitted Discretion. Agent shall have no obligation to take any action under this Section 9.2, and no undertaking by Agent under this paragraph shall obligate Agent to continue any such action or to take any other or additional action under this Section 9.2. Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall be construed as authorizing or causing a replacement of the Servicer absent the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default.

9.3 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

10. TAXES AND EXPENSES.

If Borrower fails to pay any monies (whether taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) due to third Persons, or fails to make any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as required under the terms of this Agreement, then, Agent, in its Permitted Discretion and without prior notice to Borrower, may do any or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof (provided that Agent shall not pay taxes that are the subject of a Permitted Protest and that Agent shall, in any event, consult with the Borrower prior to making any such payment or (b) in the case of the failure to comply with Section 6.8 hereof, obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type described in Section 6.8 and take any action with respect to such policies as Agent deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by Agent shall constitute Lender Group Expenses and any such payments shall not constitute an agreement by the Lender Group to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default under this Agreement. Agent need not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, or Lien and the receipt of the usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due and owing.

11. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

11.1 Demand; Protest; etc. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender Group on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

11.2 The Lender Group’s Liability for Borrower Collateral. Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Borrower Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Borrower Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

11.3 Indemnification.

(a) Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons with respect to each Lender (each, an “Borrower Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, costs (but excluding for the avoidance of doubt any Excluded Taxes), penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts and consultants and other reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (i) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration (including any amendment, restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents, (ii) with respect to any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Borrower Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (iii) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties owned, leased or operated by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Actions, Environmental Liabilities or Remedial Actions related in any way to any such assets or properties of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Borrower Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower shall have no obligation to any Borrower Indemnified Person under this Section 11.3(a) with respect to any Borrower Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Borrower Indemnified Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any Borrower Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Borrower Indemnified Person with respect to a Borrower Indemnified Liability as to which Borrower was required to indemnify the Borrower Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Borrower Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrower with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH BORROWER INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO BORROWER INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH BORROWER INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

(b) Each of Horizon and Horizon Management shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons with respect to each Lender (each, an “Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, costs (but excluding for the avoidance of doubt any Excluded Taxes), penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts and consultants and other reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of or related to (i) fraud or willful misconduct of Horizon or Horizon Management or any Horizon-Related Person and (ii) any intentional misrepresentation of Horizon or Horizon Management in any Loan Document (the “Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, neither Horizon nor Horizon Management shall have any obligation to any Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person under this Section 11.3(b) with respect to any Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person with respect to a Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Liability as to which Horizon and Horizon Management was required to indemnify the Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Horizon and Horizon Management Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Horizon and Horizon Management with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH HORIZON AND HORIZON MANAGEMENT INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO HORIZON AND HORIZON MANAGEMENT INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH HORIZON AND HORIZON MANAGEMENT INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

14. ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

(a) With the prior written consent of (i) Agent, which consent of Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and shall not be required in connection with an assignment to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than individuals) of a Lender and (ii) in the case of an assignment of any Commitment, Borrower, which consent of Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and shall not be required (A) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or (B) in connection with an assignment to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than individuals) of a Lender (provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to a proposed assignment unless it objects thereto by written notice to Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof), any Lender may assign and delegate to one or more assignees so long as in each case such prospective assignee is an Eligible Transferee (each, an “Assignee”; provided, however, that neither Borrower nor any Affiliate of Borrower shall be permitted to become an Assignee) all or any portion of the Obligations, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in a minimum amount (unless waived by the Agent) of $5,000,000 (except such minimum amount shall not apply to (x) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender or (y) a group of new Lenders, each of whom is an Affiliate of each other or a fund or account managed by any such new Lender or an Affiliate of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000); provided, however, that Borrower and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (1) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (2) such Lender and its Assignee have delivered to Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and Agent has notified the assigning Lender of its receipt thereof in accordance with Section 14.1(b), and (3) unless waived by the Agent, the assigning Lender or Assignee has paid to Agent for Agent’s separate account a processing fee in the amount of $5,000.

(b) From and after the date that Agent notifies the assigning Lender (with a copy to Borrower) that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and, if applicable, payment of the required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 11.3 hereof) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto), and such assignment shall effect a novation among Borrower, the assigning Lender, and the Assignee; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall release any assigning Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender’s obligations under Section 16 and Section 17.9(a) of this Agreement.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance or observance by Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to Agent, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon Agent’s receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 14.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations, its Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender, or (E) change the amount or due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums, and (v) all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Borrower, the Collections, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves. Each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.3 and Section 2.11(a) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein and otherwise in this Agreement, read as if a Participant were a Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided, however, that a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 11.3 and Section 2.11(a) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant.

(f) In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

(g) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable Law.

(h) Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an Agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its lending offices a copy of each assignment pursuant to this Section 14.1 delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and all principal and interest in respect of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no assignment pursuant to this Section 14.1 shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 14.1(h). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to this Section 14.1(h) as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Loan Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time during regular business hours and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The provisions of this Section 14.1(h) are intended to cause the Loans to be treated as having been issued in “registered form” within the meaning of section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted and carried out in a manner consistent therewith.

(i) In addition, each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans or any other Obligations) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is required to establish that such Loans or Obligations are in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

(j) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Lenders and their Affiliates may sell or securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans. Borrower shall cooperate with the Lender and their Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lender in connection with the Securitization; provided that (i) Borrower is reimbursed for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with effecting such Securitization, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not materially adversely affect the rights, or materially increase the obligations, of Borrower under the Loan Documents or change or affect in a manner adverse to Borrower the financial terms of the Loans, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing in connection with any rating of the Loans a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify each Lender and its Affiliates, any rating agencies rating the Loans, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Liabilities”) to which such Lender, its Affiliates or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower contained in any Loan Document or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower to the Lenders in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission by Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by any Lender or its successors or assigns of the Loans and (ii) agreeing to reimburse each Lender and its Affiliates for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Liabilities.

14.2 Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders’ prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof, no consent or approval by Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

15. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

15.1 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter), and no consent with respect to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Agent at the written request of the Required Lenders), Agent and Borrower and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective, but only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders directly affected thereby and Borrower, do any of the following:

100

(i) increase the amount of or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender,

(ii) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document,

(iii) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest on, any loan or other extension of credit hereunder, or reduce any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of Section 2.5(b), which waiver shall be effective with the written consent of the Required Lenders),

(iv) amend, modify, or eliminate this Section or any provision of this Agreement providing for consent or other action by all Lenders,

(v) amend, modify, or eliminate Section 16.12 or the first sentence of Section 3.6,

(vi) other than as permitted by Section 16.12, release Agent’s Lien in and to any of the Collateral,

(vii) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share”,

(viii) contractually subordinate any of the Agent’s Liens,

(ix) release Borrower from any obligation for the payment of money, or consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights or duties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents,

(x) amend, modify, or eliminate any of the provisions of Section 2.3(b), (c) or (g),

101

(xi) amend, modify, or eliminate any of the provisions of Section 14.1(a) to permit Borrower or an Affiliate of Borrower to be permitted to become an Assignee,

(xii) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of “Overcollateralization Ratio” or any of the defined terms (including the definition of Eligible Notes Receivable) that are used in such definition to the extent that any such change results in more credit being made available to Borrower based upon the Overcollateralization Ratio, but not otherwise, or the definitions of “Commitment,” or

(xiii) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of “Availability Period,” or any of the provisions of Section 2.3(f).

(b) No amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent shall amend, modify, or waive the definition of, or any of the terms or provisions of, the Fee Letter, without the written consent of Agent and Borrower (and shall not require the written consent of any of the Lenders),

(c) Anything in this Section 15.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, any amendment, modification, elimination, waiver, consent, termination, or release of, or with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Lender Group among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of Borrower, shall not require consent by or the agreement of Borrower.

15.2 Replacement of Certain Lenders.

(a) If any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Agent hereunder requires the unanimous consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, then Borrower or Agent, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a “Holdout Lender”) with one or more lenders reasonably acceptable to Agent in its Permitted Discretion (each, a “Replacement Lender”), and the Holdout Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given.

102

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever, but including all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof). If the Holdout Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance in the name or and on behalf of the Holdout Lender and irrespective of whether Agent executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance, the Holdout Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Holdout Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 14.1. Until such time as one or more Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender shall remain obligated to make the Holdout Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Loans.

15.3 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement. Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.

16. AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

16.1 Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Fortress Credit Co LLC as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Fortress Credit Co LLC agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the conditions contained in this Section 16. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Agent to act as the secured party under each of the Loan Documents that create a Lien on any item of Collateral. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) make Loans, for itself or on behalf of Lenders, as provided in the Loan Documents, (d) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Loan Documents, (e) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes with respect to the Collateral and the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, (f) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (g) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents.

103

16.2 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in-fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

16.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

16.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

104

16.5 Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 16.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

16.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis (except to the extent, if any, that is expressly specified herein) to provide such Lender with any credit or other information with respect to Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’ possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement.

105

16.7 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrower is obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Borrower and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrower or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s ratable thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

16.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. Fortress Credit Co LLC and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though Fortress Credit Co LLC were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Fortress Credit Co LLC or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. The terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Fortress Credit Co LLC in its individual capacity.

106

16.9 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders) and Borrower (unless such notice is waived by Borrower. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrower, a successor Agent. In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 16 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

16.10 Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

16.11 Withholding Taxes. Without limiting any of Borrower’s obligations under Section 2.11(a)(i) or Section 2.11(a)(iii), if the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, because such Lender failed to notify Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or because of such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.1(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register), such Lender shall indemnify and hold Agent harmless for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent, as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Agent under this Section 16.11, together with all costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and expenses). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 16.11 shall survive the satisfaction, discharge or payment of all Obligations, the resignation or replacement of Agent and any assignment of rights by (or the replacement of) any Lender.

107

16.12 Collateral Matters

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent to release any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if such sale or disposition is a Permitted Disposition or Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted under Section 7.4 of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property in which Borrower owned no interest at the time the Agent’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter, or (iv) constituting property leased to Borrower under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Borrower and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, to (a) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (b) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (c) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Stock of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). Except as provided above, Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all of the Collateral, all of the Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders. Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 16.12; provided, however, that (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

108

(b) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower or its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain, reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

16.13 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of Agent, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the written request of Agent, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to Borrower or any deposit accounts of Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by Agent, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Agent in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all such distributions by Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

109

16.14 Agency for Perfection. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the Code can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

16.15 Payments by Agent to the Lenders. All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.

16.16 Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

16.17 Field Audits and Examination Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report (each a “Report”) prepared by or at the request of Agent, and Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Borrower and will rely significantly upon the Books, as well as on representations of Borrower’s personnel,

(d) agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 17.9, and

110

(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of Borrower, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys fees and costs) incurred by Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

In addition to the foregoing: (x) any Lender may from time to time request of Agent in writing that Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by Borrower to Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by Borrower to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender and (y) to the extent that Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from Borrower, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s notice to Agent, whereupon Agent promptly shall request of Borrower the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from Borrower, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender.

16.18 Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Agent (if any) to make any credit available hereunder shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Commitments, to make an amount of such credit not to exceed, in principal amount, at any one time outstanding, the amount of their respective Commitments. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other Lender. Except as provided in Section 16.7, no member of the Lender Group shall have any liability for the acts of any other member of the Lender Group. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for such Lender or on its behalf, nor to take any other action on behalf of such Lender hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein.

17. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

17.1 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by Borrower, Agent, and each Lender whose signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof.

111

17.2 Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

17.3 Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against the Lender Group or Borrower, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.

17.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

17.5 [Reserved].

17.6 Debtor-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders and Agent, on the one hand, and Borrower, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No member of the Lender Group has (or shall be deemed to have) any fiduciary relationship or duty to Borrower arising out of or in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, and there is no agency or joint venture relationship between the members of the Lender Group, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, by virtue of any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

17.7 Counterparts; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

17.8 Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by Borrower or the transfer to the Lender Group of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the Lender Group is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Lender Group is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of the Lender Group related thereto, the liability of Borrower automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

112

17.9 Confidentiality.

(a) Agent and the Lenders each individually (and not jointly or jointly and severally) agree that material, non-public information regarding Borrower and its Affiliates, their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans (“Confidential Information”) shall be treated by Agent and the Lenders in a confidential manner, and shall not be disclosed by Agent and the Lenders to Persons who are not parties to this Agreement, except: (i) to attorneys for and other advisors, accountants, auditors, and consultants to any member of the Lender Group and to employees, directors and officers of any member of the Lender Group (the Persons in this clause (i), “Lender Group Representatives”) on a “need to know” basis in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and on a confidential basis, (ii) to Subsidiaries and Affiliates of any member of the Lender Group, and to their respective employees, directors and officers, provided that any such Subsidiary or Affiliate shall have been advised of the confidential nature of such information hereunder subject to the terms of this Section 17.9, (iii) as may be required by regulatory authorities so long as such authorities are informed of the confidential nature of such information, (iv) as may be required by statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation; provided that (x) prior to any disclosure under this clause (iv), the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrower with prior notice thereof, to the extent that it is practicable to do so and to the extent that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior notice to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the applicable statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation and (y) any disclosure under this clause (iv) shall be limited to the portion of the Confidential Information as may be required by such statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation, (v) as may be agreed to in advance in writing by Borrower, (vi) as requested or required by any Governmental Authority pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process, provided, that, (x) prior to any disclosure under this clause (vi) the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrower with prior written notice thereof, to the extent that it is practicable to do so and to the extent that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior written notice to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the subpoena or other legal process and (y) any disclosure under this clause (vi) shall be limited to the portion of the Confidential Information as may be required by such Governmental Authority pursuant to such subpoena or other legal process, (vii) as to any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of prohibited disclosure by Agent or the Lenders or the Lender Group Representatives), (viii) in connection with any assignment, participation, financing or pledge of any Lender’s interest under this Agreement or in connection with a Securitization, provided that prior to receipt of Confidential Information any Person receiving the information from Lender in connection with the respective assignment, participation, financing or pledge shall have agreed in writing to receive such Confidential Information hereunder subject to the terms of this Section, (ix) in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, that, prior to any disclosure to any Person (other than Borrower, Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel) under this clause (ix) with respect to litigation involving any Person (other than Borrower, Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel), the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrower with prior written notice thereof, and (x) in connection with, and to the extent reasonably necessary for, the exercise of any secured creditor remedy under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower, Horizon and Horizon Management may, subject to the prior written approval of the Agent and each member of the Lender Group, in their sole discretion, use the name, logos and other insignia of Agent and members of the Lender Group, along with the total Commitments provided hereunder, in any “tombstone” or comparable advertising, on its website or in other marketing materials of Borrower, Horizon or Horizon Management.

17.10 Lender Group Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay the Lender Group Expenses on the earlier of (a) the first day of the month following the date on which such Lender Group Expenses were first incurred or (b) the date on which demand therefor is made by Agent. Borrower agrees that its obligations contained in this Section 17.10 shall survive payment or satisfaction in full of all other Obligations.

17.11 Survival. All representations and warranties made by Borrower or its Affiliates in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

17.12 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. In addition, if Agent is required by law or regulation or internal policies to do so, it shall have the right to periodically conduct (a) Patriot Act searches, OFAC/PEP searches, and customary individual background checks for Borrower and its Affiliates and (b) OFAC/PEP searches and customary individual background checks for the senior management and key principals of Borrower and its Affiliates, and Borrower agrees to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such searches and further agrees that the reasonable costs and charges for such searches shall constitute Lender Expenses hereunder and be for the account of Borrower.
