(d) On any Purchase Date with respect to the Collateral to be acquired by the Buyer on that date, the Seller shall be deemed to, and hereby does, certify to the Buyer and to the Collateral Trustee, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as of such Purchase Date, that each of the representations and warranties in Section 4.02 is true and correct in all material respects as of such Purchase Date.
(e) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the sale and purchase of Collateral under this Agreement shall be without recourse to the Seller; it being understood that the Seller shall be liable to the Buyer for all representations and warranties made by the Seller pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all of which obligations are limited so as not to constitute recourse to the Seller for the credit risk of the Obligors.
(f) In connection with each Purchase of Collateral from the Seller to the Buyer on and after the 2024 Closing Date as contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer hereby directs the Seller to, and the Seller agrees that it will, Deliver in accordance with the Indenture, or cause to be Delivered in accordance with the Indenture (on behalf of the Buyer), to the Custodian (with a copy to the Collateral Trustee), each Collateral Obligation being transferred to the Buyer on such Purchase Date in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

(k) [Reserved].
(l) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the conveyance of all right, title and interest in and to the Collateral to the Buyer by the Seller as provided in this Section 2.01 is intended and shall, in each and every case, constitute an absolute sale, assignment, conveyance and transfer of ownership of such Collateral conveying good title, free and clear of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) and that the Collateral shall not be part of the Seller’s bankruptcy estate in the event of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings with respect to the Seller. Furthermore, it is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Collateral Obligations and the other Collateral to the Buyer to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller.

BUSINESS.31767223.5 | ||
Section 2.02 Purchase Price.
The purchase price for each Collateral Obligation sold pursuant to this Master Loan Sale Agreement shall be a dollar amount equal to the fair market value thereof as determined by the Seller and the Buyer and shall be on terms no less favorable to the buyer than such buyer would then obtain in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a person that is not an Affiliate (in each case, the “Purchase Price”).
Section 2.03 Payment of Purchase Price.
(a) The Purchase Price for any Collateral acquired by the Buyer from the Seller on any Purchase Date pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid in a combination of (A) immediately available funds in cash and (B) if the Buyer does not have sufficient funds in cash to pay the full amount of the Purchase Price, by means of a capital contribution by the Seller to the Buyer.
(b) The Seller, in connection with each Purchase hereunder relating to any Collateral, shall be deemed to have certified, and hereby does certify, with respect to the Collateral to be purchased by the Buyer on such day, that its representations and warranties contained in Article IV are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such day, with the same effect as though made on and as of such day.
(c) Upon the payment of the Purchase Price for any Purchase, title to the Collateral included in such Purchase shall vest in the Buyer as provided herein, whether or not the conditions precedent to such Purchase and the other covenants and agreements contained herein were in fact satisfied; provided that the Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any claim it may have under this Agreement for the failure by the Seller in fact to satisfy any such condition precedent, covenant or agreement.
(d) Collateral Obligations may be purchased or acquired from time to time by the Buyer from the Seller or any of its Affiliates hereunder only if (i) the terms and conditions thereof are no less favorable to the Buyer than the terms it would obtain in a comparable, timely purchase or acquisition with a non-Affiliate and (ii) the transactions are effected in accordance with all applicable laws.
Section 2.04 [Reserved].
Section 2.05 [Reserved].
Section 2.06 Limitation on Sales to Seller and Affiliates.
At any time after the 2024 Closing Date, the Buyer may sell any Collateral Obligation to the Seller or any affiliate thereof; provided that such transaction is conducted in an arm’s length transaction in the ordinary course of business and the value of any such transferred Collateral Obligation shall be the mid-point between the “bid” and “ask” prices provided by a nationally recognized independent pricing service or, if unavailable or determined by the Collateral Manager to be unreliable, the fair market value of such Collateral Obligation as reasonably
BUSINESS.31767223.5 | ||
determined by the Collateral Manager, and such Affiliate shall acquire such Collateral Obligation for a price equal to the value so determined; provided, further, that the aggregate amount of Collateral Obligations sold to the Seller or its affiliates may not exceed 15% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance during the preceding 12 month period.

BUSINESS.31767223.5 | ||

This Agreement constitutes a valid transfer to the Buyer of all right, title and interest in, to and under each Collateral Obligation, free and clear of any Lien of any Person claiming through or under the Seller or its Affiliates, except for Permitted Liens. If the conveyances contemplated by this Agreement are determined to be a transfer for security, then this Agreement constitutes a grant of a security interest in each Collateral Obligation to the Buyer which upon the delivery of the Collateral Obligation, in accordance with the definition of “Deliver” under the Indenture, to the Buyer (or to the Custodian on behalf of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and the filing of the financing statements shall be a first priority perfected security interest in each such Collateral Obligation, subject only to Permitted Liens.
(b) Eligibility of Sale Portfolio. As of each Purchase Date, (i) Schedule 1 is an accurate and complete listing of all Collateral Obligations included in the Collateral as of the related Purchase Date and the information contained therein with respect to the identity of such Collateral Obligations and the amounts owing thereunder is true and correct as of the related Purchase Date and (ii) with respect to each Collateral Obligation, all consents, licenses, approvals or authorizations of or registrations or declarations of any governmental authority or any Person required to be obtained, effected or given by the Seller in connection with the transfer of an ownership interest or security interest in each Collateral Obligation to the Buyer have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties provided in this Section 4.02 shall survive (x) the sale of the Collateral Obligations to the Buyer, (y) the grant of a first priority perfected security interest in, to and under each Collateral Obligation pursuant to the Indenture by the Buyer and (z) the termination of this Agreement and the Indenture. Upon discovery by the Seller or the Buyer of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other and to the Collateral Trustee immediately upon obtaining knowledge of such breach.
Section 4.03 Representations and Warranties Regarding the Buyer.

BUSINESS.31767223.5 | ||
qualified, maintain good standing or obtain such license or approval would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(c) Due Authorization; Execution and Delivery; Legal, ▇▇▇▇▇ and Binding; Enforceability. The execution and delivery by the Buyer of, and the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and the other instruments, certificates and agreements contemplated hereby or thereby are within its powers and have been duly authorized by all requisite action by it and have been duly executed and delivered by it and constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(d) Non-Contravention. None of the execution and delivery by the Buyer of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated, or performance and compliance by it with the terms, conditions and provisions hereof or thereof, will (i) contravene in any material respect or result in any breach of, any of the terms and provisions of, its articles of incorporation and memorandum of association, (ii) conflict with or contravene (A) any applicable law, (B) any indenture, agreement or other contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or any of its assets, including any Related Contract, or (C) any order, writ, judgment, award, injunction or decree binding on or affecting it or any of its assets or properties or (iii) result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, or permit the acceleration of any obligation or liability in, or but for any requirement of the giving of notice or the passage of time (or both) would constitute such a conflict with, breach or violation of, or default under, or permit any such acceleration in, any contractual obligation or any agreement or document to which it is a party or by which it or any of its assets are bound (or to which any such obligation, agreement or document relates), in each case under this clause (d) which would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(e) Governmental Authorizations; Private Authorizations; Governmental Filings. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of any Transaction Documents to which the Buyer is a party or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated thereby other than those that have already been duly made or obtained and remain in full force and effect or those recordings and filings in connection with the Liens granted to the Collateral Trustee under the Transaction Documents, except for any order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption, that, if not obtained, would not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(f) Sale Treatment. Other than for accounting and tax purposes, the Buyer has treated the transfer of Collateral Obligations hereunder to the Buyer for all purposes as a sale by
BUSINESS.31767223.5 | ||
the Seller and purchase by the Buyer on all of its relevant books and records and other applicable documents.
