ARTICLE III

LOANS AND ▇▇▇▇▇▇ NOTES

Section 3.1 Borrowing Procedure. Borrowings of Loans shall be made in accordance with this Section 3.1.

Section 3.1.1 Funding of the Borrowing. (a) Upon receipt of confirmation from the Borrower (or its counsel on its behalf) that the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 have been satisfied, each Lender shall make available its pro rata share (based on such Lender’s Percentage) of the Aggregate Commitments in the manner provided below. All such amounts shall be made available in Dollars, and in immediately available funds to the Collateral Trustee for deposit pursuant to the Indenture.

(b) Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments and other commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

Section 3.2 Lender Notes. (a) On the Loan Date to the extent requested by any Lender, the Borrower shall (i) sign a Lender Note in the name of such Lender in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the Aggregate Commitments, which such Lender Notes shall be dated the Loan Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit A (a “Lender Note”) and (ii) deliver such Lender Note to such Lender (with a copy to the Loan Agent). If requested by any Lender, the Borrower shall obtain a CUSIP or other loan identification number that is customary for the nature of the Loans made hereunder. To the extent any Lender does not elect to receive a Lender Note, the Registrar shall, upon instruction of the Borrower, deliver to such Lender a Confirmation of Registration in the form of Exhibit D hereto.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Loan Agent to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on its internal records, which notations shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of, and the Interest Rate applicable to, the Loans evidenced thereby. The notations on such internal records indicating the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans made by such Lender shall be prima facie evidence (absent manifest error) of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid, but the failure to record any such amount, or any error therein, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Lender Note to make payment of principal of or interest on such Loans when due. At any time (including to replace any Lender Note that has been destroyed or lost) when any Lender requests the delivery of a new Lender Note to evidence any of its Loans, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender the Lender Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that, other than in the case of a substitute or replacement Lender Note to replace a Lender Note that has been destroyed or lost, only one Lender Note shall be issued to any Lender and the Borrower shall not deliver a new Lender Note to any requesting Lender until such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ surrenders the Lender Note currently held by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇; provided, further, that, in the case of a substitute or replacement Lender Note, the Borrower and the Loan Agent shall have received from such requesting Lender (i) evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Lender Note and (ii) there is delivered to the Borrower, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and the Transfer Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Borrower, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and/or such Transfer Agent that such Lender Note has been acquired by a “protected purchaser” (within the meaning of Section 8-303 of the UCC), the Borrower shall execute and, upon receipt of such executed Lender Note, the Collateral Trustee shall deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Lender Note, the new Lender Note, of like tenor (including the same date of issuance) and equal principal or face amount, registered in the same manner, dated the date of its issuance, bearing interest from the date to which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Lender Note; provided, further, that, in connection with the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date of the Loans, each Lender shall surrender the Lender Notes to the Borrower for payment of the Redemption Price or final payment of principal of such Loans in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Such surrender shall occur either at the address specified herein for the Borrower or, with respect to any Redemption Date, in accordance with the redemption notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.4 of the Indenture.

If, after delivery of such new Lender Note, a protected purchaser of the predecessor Lender Note presents for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor Lender Note, the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent and such Transfer Agent shall be entitled to recover such new Lender Note from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Borrower, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent and such Transfer Agent in connection therewith.

In case any such mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Lender Note has become due and payable, the Borrower in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Lender Note pay such Lender Note without requiring surrender thereof except that any mutilated or defaced Lender Note shall be surrendered.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 3.2, the Borrower may require the payment by the Lender thereof of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent) connected therewith.

All Lender Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, conversion, exchange or redemption, or mutilated, defaced or deemed lost or stolen, shall be promptly canceled by the Loan Agent and may not be reissued or resold. No Lender Note may be surrendered (including any surrender in connection with any abandonment, donation, gift, contribution or other event or circumstance) except for payment as provided herein, or for registration of transfer, exchange, conversion or redemption, or for replacement in connection with any Lender Note mutilated, defaced or deemed lost or stolen. Any such Lender Note shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Borrower, be delivered to the Borrower. All canceled Lender Notes held by the Loan Agent shall be destroyed or held by the Loan Agent in accordance with its standard retention policy unless the Borrower shall direct by an Issuer Order received prior to destruction that they be returned to it.

The provisions of this Section 3.2 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Lender Notes.

Section 3.3 Principal Payments.

Section 3.3.1 Repayments and Prepayments. The Borrower shall make payments of unpaid principal of each Loan on each Payment Date to the extent provided in the Priority of Payments and Article IX of the Indenture.

Section 3.3.2 Application. Each repayment and prepayment of a Loan shall be subject to the terms of the Indenture (including the subordination provisions set forth in Section 13.1 thereof and the Priority of Payments set forth in Section 11.1(a) thereof) and the requirement to pay Lenders on a pro rata basis as set forth in Section 8.6. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Loans shall comprise and be a part of the Class A Debt and, as such, shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture applicable to the Class A Debt,

and shall have the rights afforded in the Indenture to the Class A Debt (to the extent of the component thereof consisting of the Loans).

Section 3.3.3 Mandatory Prepayment. The Loans are subject to prepayment in connection with a mandatory redemption of the Debt as set forth in Section 9.1 of the Indenture (a “Mandatory Prepayment”).

Section 3.3.4 Special Prepayment. The Loans are subject to prepayment in connection with a Special Redemption as set forth in Section 9.6 of the Indenture.

Section 3.3.7 Re-Pricing. The Loans are not subject to re-pricing.

Section 3.4 Interest.

Section 3.4.1 Interest Rules and Calculations. (a) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in respect of each Loan, on each Payment Date and on any date of prepayment or repayment of such Loan, commencing on the first Payment Date following the Loan Date in accordance with the terms of the Indenture (including the subordination provisions set forth in Section 13.1 thereof and the Priority of Payments set forth in Section 11.1(a) thereof). For each Loan, interest shall accrue during each Interest Accrual Period on the unpaid Aggregate Outstanding Amount of such Loan on the first day of the applicable Interest Accrual Period (after giving effect to payments of principal thereon on such date).

(b) Interest due and payable shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Indenture.

(c) The Borrower shall make (or cause to be made) all payments of interest to the Loan Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with Section 3.5.

(d) The Lenders hereby consent to the Borrower’s appointment of the Collateral Administrator to serve as Calculation Agent under the Indenture. All computations of interest due shall be made by the Calculation Agent in accordance with Section 8.7 hereof and subject to and in accordance with Section 7.16 of the Indenture. The Borrower hereby agrees that for so long as any Loans remain Outstanding, there will at all times be a Calculation Agent appointed under the Indenture to calculate SOFR (or after the designation of a Fallback Rate, such Fallback Rate) in respect of the Debt.

(e) In no event shall the rate of interest applicable to any Loan exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

(f) Upon an assignment of Loans pursuant to Section 8.4, unless otherwise directed by the assignor Lender, the assigned Loans shall trade without accrued interest and the Loan Agent shall, in accordance with the Priority of Payments on the Payment Date immediately succeeding the date of assignment, disburse to (x) the assignor Lender, the interest accrued on such assigned Loan from and including the previous Payment Date (or, in the case of the first Interest Accrual Period, the Closing Date) to but excluding such date of assignment and (y) the assignee Lender, the interest accrued on such assigned Loan from and including such date of assignment to but excluding such Payment Date.

Section 3.5 Method and Place of Payment. (a) The Loan Agent shall, prior to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated trust account in the name of the Issuer subject to the Lien of the Indenture, which shall be designated as the “Class A-L Loan Account” and which shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement. Such account shall be held in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the Trustee shall have exclusive control over such account, subject to the Loan Agent’s right to give instructions specified herein. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Class A-L Loan Account shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Lenders. The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the Class A-L Loan Account shall be to pay the interest on and the principal of the Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and as specified in Schedule 3. The Loan Agent agrees to give the Borrowers, the Trustee and the Lenders prompt notice if a Responsible Officer receives notice that the Class A-L Loan Account or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Class A-L Loan Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process.

(b) On each Payment Date on which amounts are deposited into the Class A-L Loan Account for distribution to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.7 and 11.1 of the Indenture, the Loan Agent shall distribute such amounts to the Lenders, pro rata, allocated based on amounts due thereto. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to the Loan Agent for the ratable (based on their applicable Percentages) account of the Lenders entitled thereto (which funds, if delivered to the Loan Agent, the Loan Agent shall promptly forward to such Lenders), on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds to the account with the wire instructions specified in Schedule 3 (or in the Assignment Agreement, as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, all payments by the Borrower of principal and interest in respect of Loans, or any other amounts owed to a Lender hereunder, payable on a Payment Date shall be made to, subject to Section 3.4.1(f), the Lender of record as of the corresponding Record Date.

(c) All income earned on the funds invested and allocable to the Class A-L Loan Account is legally owned by the Borrower (and for U.S. federal income tax purposes, beneficially owned by the Borrower or the equity owner or owners of such entity). The Borrower is required to provide to the Loan Agent, in its capacity as Loan Agent (i) an IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 no later than the date hereof, and (ii) any other documentation upon the reasonable request of the Loan Agent as may be necessary (a) to reduce or eliminate the

imposition of U.S. withholding taxes and (b) to permit the Loan Agent to fulfill its tax reporting obligations under applicable law with respect to the Class A-L Loan Account or any amounts paid to the Borrower. The Loan Agent, both in its individual capacity and in its capacity as Loan Agent, shall have no liability to the Borrower or any other person in connection with any tax withholding amounts paid, or retained for payment, to a governmental authority from the Class A-L Loan Account arising from the Borrower’s failure to timely provide an accurate, correct and complete IRS Form W-9, an appropriate IRS Form W-8 or such other documentation contemplated under this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt, no funds shall be invested with respect to such Class A-L Loan Account absent the Loan Agent having first received (x) written instructions with respect to the investment of such funds, and (y) the forms and other documentation required by this paragraph (c).

Section 3.6 Subordination.

(a) Incorporation of Subordination Provisions of the Indenture. All Loans incurred pursuant to this Agreement are subject to, and each Lender hereby consents and agrees to, the subordination and remedy provisions set forth in Section 13.1 of the Indenture. Article XIII of the Indenture shall be binding upon each Lender as though such sections (and the corresponding defined terms) had been set forth herein in their entirety.

(b) Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of its Loans are subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Indenture and shall be paid solely to the extent of available funds in accordance with the Priority of Payments. Each Lender hereby agrees and acknowledges that its right to payment shall be subordinate and junior to any payments owed under Sections 11.1(a)(i)(A) and (B) of the Indenture and, any applicable payments owed under Section 11.1(a)(ii)(A) of the Indenture senior to payments with respect to the Loans and any payments owed under Sections 11.1(a)(iii)(A) and (B) of the Indenture (collectively, the “Senior Items”) of the Indenture, as applicable. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement and the Indenture, any Lender shall have received any payment or distribution in respect of its Loans contrary to the provisions of the Indenture or this Agreement, then, unless and until each Senior Item shall have been paid in full in Cash or, to the extent each recipient of such Senior Item consents, such payment or distribution shall be received and held for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over and delivered to, the Collateral Trustee, which shall pay and deliver the same in respect of the Senior Items in accordance with the Indenture; provided, however, that if any such payment or distribution is made other than in Cash, it shall be held by the Collateral Trustee as part of the Assets and subject in all respects to the provisions of the Indenture. Each Lender agrees with all recipients of Senior Items that such Lender shall not demand, accept, or receive any payment or distribution in respect of its Loans in violation of the provisions of the Indenture. Nothing in this Section 3.6(b) shall affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Lenders hereunder.

(c) Agents Entitled to Assume Payment Not Prohibited in Absence of Notice. Each of the Agents shall not at any time be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment to or by such Agent unless and until such Agent has actual knowledge thereof or unless and until such Agent shall have received and

accepted (in its role as Agent) written notice thereof from the Borrower (in the form of an Officer’s Certificate reasonably satisfactory to such Agent) or Persons representing themselves to be other holders of obligations payable hereunder or under any Credit Document by the Borrower, and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, such Agent, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, shall be entitled in all respects conclusively to assume that no such fact exists, and such Agent shall have no liability hereunder for any payment made, or action taken, by it without such knowledge or notice.

Section 3.7 Conversion. (a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon delivery from a Converting Lender to the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Rating Agency and the Borrower of a notice substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, a Converting Lender may elect any Payment Date (such Payment Date, a "Conversion Date") upon which all or a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans held by such Converting Lender shall be converted into Class A Notes of an equal Aggregate Outstanding Amount in accordance with Section 2.5(n) of the Indenture; provided that (i) each Conversion Date shall be no earlier than the fifth Business Day following the date such notice is delivered (or such earlier date as may be reasonably agreed to by the Converting Lender, the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent) and (ii) each Conversion Date shall only occur on a Payment Date. On each Conversion Date, the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes shall be increased by the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans so converted. The Loans so converted will cease to be Outstanding and will be deemed to have been repaid in full for all purposes under the Indenture and under this Agreement. No Class A Notes may be converted into Loans.

(b) The Lenders agree to provide reasonable assistance to the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent in connection with such conversion, including, but not limited to, providing applicable instructions to DTC, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent and the Note Registrar.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to exercise the Conversion Option concurrently with an assignment of all or a portion of its Loans (an "Assignment/Conversion") such that the Effective Date (as defined in the Assignment Agreement attached as Exhibit B hereto) of the assignment occurs on the related Conversion Date and the assignee receives Class A Notes (or an interest therein) in lieu of the portion of the Loans being assigned. Any assignment made in connection with an Assignment/Conversion shall meet the requirements for an assignment set forth in Section 8.4. Any Lender electing to make an Assignment/Conversion shall deliver to the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent and the Borrower at least five Business Days prior to the Conversion Date, (w) an executed Assignment Agreement, (x) a completed notice substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, (y) the assignment fee required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.4(c) hereof and (z) a written certification from the assignee substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 to the Indenture or Exhibit B-5 to the Indenture, as applicable.

Section 3.8 Additional Loans. On any Business Day, the Borrower may, in accordance with Section 2.13 of the Indenture and in connection with an additional issuance

pursuant thereto, incur additional Loans hereunder (any such Loans, “Additional Loans”). The incurrence of Additional Loans under this Agreement shall be subject to (i) satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.13 of the Indenture and (ii) the execution and delivery of an amendment to this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.12 that reflects the incurrence of such Additional Loans and the terms thereof, which amendment will be acknowledged by the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee. If a Person that was not previously a party to this Agreement extends any such Additional Loan, it will be required to be made a party to this Agreement by executing such amendment and adding such Person as a Lender.

through the CCT division of Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (including as applicable, any agents or Affiliates utilized thereby).

Independently and without reliance upon the Agents, each Lender, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. The

Agents shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Borrower or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the satisfaction of any of the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV or the financial condition of the Borrower or the existence or possible existence of any Default.

Section 7.8 Compensation and Reimbursement. (a) The Borrower agrees:

(i) to pay each of the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee on each Payment Date, in accordance with the Priority of Payments, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as set forth in Section 2.2 hereof;

(iii) to indemnify each of the Agents and its respective officers, directors, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable fees and expenses of agents and attorneys) incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on their part, arising out of or in connection with acting or serving as an Agent hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves (including reasonable fees and costs of agents and

attorneys) against any claim (whether brought by or involving the Borrower or any third party) or liability in connection with the administration, exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder and any other agreement or instrument related hereto and of enforcing this Agreement and any indemnification rights hereunder.

This Section 7.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the applicable Agent.

(b) The Agents hereby agree not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries for the non-payment to the Agents of any amounts provided by this Section 7.8 until at least one year and one day, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect, plus one day, after the payment in full of all Debt issued under the Indenture and incurred under this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 7.8 shall preclude, or be deemed to stop, the Agents (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned period in (A) any case or Proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or (B) any involuntary insolvency Proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the applicable Agent, or (ii) from commencing against the Borrower, any of its subsidiaries or any of their properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation Proceeding. This Section 7.8(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the applicable Agent.

(c) Each of the Agents acknowledges that all payments payable to it under this Agreement shall be subject to the Priority of Payments in the Indenture and payable as Administrative Expenses.

The Successor Agent so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the Successor Agent and supersede any Successor Agent proposed by the Borrower. If no Successor Agent shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a Successor Agent shall not have been delivered to the Agents within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Agent, or any Lender, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a Successor Agent satisfying the requirements of Section 7.9 hereof. The resignation or removal of the Collateral Trustee and/or the appointment of a successor Collateral Trustee shall be governed by Section 6.9 of the Indenture.

(c) The Loan Agent may be removed at any time upon 30 days’ written notice by Act of a Majority of the Lenders, delivered to the Agents and the Borrower.

(d) If at any time:

(i) the Loan Agent shall cease to be eligible under Section 7.9 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Borrower or by a Majority of the Lenders; or

(ii) the Loan Agent shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Loan Agent or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Loan Agent or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case (subject to Section 7.10(a) hereof), (A) the Borrower, by an Issuer Order, may remove the Loan Agent, or (B) any Lender may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Loan Agent and the appointment of a Successor Agent.

(e) If the Loan Agent shall be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Loan Agent for any reason (other than resignation), the Borrower, by Issuer Order, shall promptly appoint a successor Loan Agent. If the Borrower shall fail to appoint a successor Loan Agent within 30 days after such removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a Successor Agent may be appointed by a Majority of the Controlling Class by written instrument delivered to the Borrower and the retiring Loan Agent. The successor Loan Agent so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Loan Agent and supersede any successor Loan Agent proposed by the Borrower. If no successor Loan Agent shall have been so appointed by the Borrower or a Majority of the Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, subject to Section 6.9 of the Indenture, any Lender or the Loan Agent may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Loan Agent.

(f) The Borrower shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the Loan Agent and each appointment of a Successor Agent to the Collateral Trustee, the Rating Agency and to each Lender. Such notice shall include the name of the Successor Agent and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. If the Borrower fails to provide such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the Successor Agent, the Successor Agent shall cause such notice to be given at the expense of the Borrower.

(g) If the Bank shall resign or be removed as Collateral Trustee, the Bank shall also resign or be removed as Loan Agent and as any other capacity in which the Bank is then acting pursuant to this Agreement, the Indenture or any other Transaction Document.

Section 7.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Agents. Every Successor Agent appointed hereunder and qualified under Section 7.9 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Borrower and the retiring Agent an instrument accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement and, to the extent such Successor Agent shall be a party thereto, the Indenture and the Securities Account Control Agreement. Upon delivery of the required instruments, the resignation or removal of the retiring Agent shall become effective and such Successor Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of the retiring Agent; but, on request of the Borrower or a Majority of the Lenders or the Successor Agent, such retiring Agent shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such

Successor Agent all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Agent, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Successor Agent all property held by such retiring Agent hereunder. Upon request of any such Successor Agent, each of the Borrower shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such Successor Agent all such rights, powers and trusts.

Section 7.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Agents. Any organization or entity into which an Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any organization or entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Agent shall be a party, or any organization or entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of such Agent, shall be the successor of such Agent hereunder; provided that such organization or entity shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VII, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 8.1 Payment of Expenses, Etc. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (A) of the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and (B) of the Loan Agent and the Collateral Trustee in connection with any Default or Event of Default or with the enforcement of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Collateral Trustee, counsel and agents for the Loan Agent and one (1) counsel in total for all Lenders, collectively). To the extent that the undertaking to pay the Loan Agent or the Collateral Trustee set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the covered expenses which is permissible under applicable law, subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in the preceding sentence and the Priority of Payments. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall be made on the first Payment Date that funds are available for such payments as an Administrative Expense in accordance with the Priority of Payments. This Section 8.1 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the applicable Agent.

Section 8.2 Right of Setoff. Each Lender hereby waives any right of setoff that the Lender may have against the Borrower in respect of any obligation arising hereunder or under the Lender Notes.

Section 8.3 Notices. (a) All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telecopier or electronic mail (if an e-mail address for the relevant party is set forth in the Indenture)) and mailed or given in the manner provided in Section 14.3 of the Indenture, if to the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Rating Agency, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and/or any Lender, at its address specified in the Indenture (or, in the case of any Lender and the Loan Agent, in Schedule 2 hereof), and in the case of any Lender becoming party hereto after the Closing Date, the related Assignment Agreement; or, at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. Any such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given on the date such notice is given.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) In the event that any provision in this Agreement calls for any notice or document to be delivered simultaneously to the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent and any other Person, the Collateral Trustee’s or the Loan Agent’s receipt of such notice or document shall entitle the Collateral Trustee and the Loan Agent to assume that such notice was delivered to such other Person or entity.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in any agreement or document related hereto, any documents (including reports, notices or

supplemental indentures) required to be provided by the Loan Agent or the Collateral Trustee to the Lenders may be provided by providing notice of, and access to, the Collateral Trustee’s website containing such document.

(e) The Bank (in each of its capacities hereunder) agrees to accept and act upon instructions or directions pursuant to this Agreement, the Indenture or any other Transaction Document sent by unsecured email, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured electronic methods. If such Person elects to give the Bank email or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Bank in its discretion elects to act upon such instructions, the Bank’s reasonable understanding of such instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Bank shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Bank’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflicting with or being inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Any Person providing such instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Bank, including without limitation the risk of the Bank acting on unauthorized instructions accompanied by an incumbency certificate, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. Any Person providing such instructions acknowledges and agrees that there may be more secure methods of transmitting such instructions than the method(s) selected by such Person and agrees that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with such Person’s transmission of such instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances.

Section 8.4 Benefit of Agreement. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto to the extent permitted under this Section 8.4; provided that, except as provided in Section 5.10 of this Agreement, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender. Each Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions; provided that in the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; and provided, further, that, no Lender shall transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Lender Note in which such participant is participating or waive any Mandatory Prepayment thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant’s participating interest in any Lender Note over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or a Mandatory Prepayment, shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Lender Note), (y) release all or substantially all of the Assets (in each case, except as

expressly provided in the Credit Documents), or (z) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except as provided in Section 5.10 of this Agreement); and provided, further, that, each participation shall be subject to the related participant providing a representation and warranty to the Lender from which it is acquiring its participation that it is a Qualified Purchaser and a Qualified Institutional Buyer and making representations substantially in the form set forth under Section 8.18(a)(i), Section 8.18(a)(ii), Section 8.18(a)(iv) and Section 8.18(a)(v).

(b) Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, such Lender’s Loans, Lender Note and other Loans) to one or more commercial banks, insurance companies, funds or other financial institutions (including one or more Lenders) that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and a Qualified Purchaser and can make all of the other representations set forth in Section 8.18. No assignment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence to an institution other than an Affiliate of such Lender or another Lender shall be in an aggregate amount less than (unless the entire outstanding Loan of the assigning Lender is so assigned) $250,000. No consent of the Borrower or the Loan Agent shall be required for any assignment by a Lender to another Lender. If any Lender so sells or assigns all or a part of its rights hereunder or under the Lender Notes, any reference in this Agreement or the Lender Notes to such assigning Lender shall thereafter refer to such Lender and to the respective assignee to the extent of their respective interests and the respective assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would if it were such assigning Lender.

(c) Each assignment pursuant to Section 8.4(b) shall be effected by the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender executing an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (an “Assignment Agreement”), which Assignment Agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B (appropriately completed); provided that, in each case, unless otherwise consented to by the Borrower, the Assignment Agreement shall contain a representation and warranty by the assignee to the Loan Agent and the Borrower that such assignee is an Approved Lender. In the event of (and at the time of) any such assignment, either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender shall pay to the Loan Agent a nonrefundable assignment fee of $3,500, and at the time of any assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 8.4, (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the Lender Note (or the Confirmation of Registration in lieu thereof) of the respective assignee (which shall result in a direct reduction to the Lender Note of the assigning Lender) and of the other Lenders, and (ii) the Borrower shall issue new Lender Notes (or Confirmation of Registration) to the respective assignee and/or to the assigning Lender, as applicable, in conformity with the requirements of Sections 3.2 and 8.16. No transfer or assignment under clause (b) of this Section 8.4 shall be effective until recorded by the Loan Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 8.16. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 8.4, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Lender Note (or Confirmation of Registration). Each Lender and the Borrower agree to execute such documents (including amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents) as shall be necessary to effect the foregoing. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Lender Notes or Loans to a

Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank.

Section 8.5 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower or any other Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 8.6 Payments Pro Rata. (a) The Collateral Trustee agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Loans hereunder and pursuant to the Indenture, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has expressly waived its right to receive its pro rata share thereof) pro rata based upon their respective Percentages, if any, of the Loans with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Commitment then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Commitment then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for Cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Loans to such other Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such disproportionate sum received; provided that, if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

Section 8.7 Calculations; Computations. All computations of interest hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed in the applicable Interest Accrual Period divided by 360.

Section 8.8 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LOANS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS

AGREEMENT OR ANY THE LOANS (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) With respect to any suit, action or proceedings relating to this Agreement or any matter between the parties arising under or in connection with this Agreement (“Proceedings”), each party irrevocably: (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof; and (ii) waives any objection which it may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceedings brought in any such court, waives any claim that such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and further waives the right to object, with respect to such Proceedings, that such court does not have any jurisdiction over such party. Nothing in this Agreement precludes any of the parties from bringing Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, nor will the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction.

(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND ANY LENDER BECOMING A PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOANS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. Each party hereby (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of the other has represented, expressly or otherwise, that the other would not, in the event of a Proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this paragraph.

(d) Each party (other than the Borrower and the Agents) to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.3.

Section 8.9 Counterparts. This Agreement (and each amendment, modification and waiver in respect of it) may be executed and delivered in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts) (including by e-mail or facsimile transmission (including, without limitation, any .pdf file, .jpeg file, or any other electronic or image file, or any “electronic signature” as defined under E-SIGN or ESRA, which includes any electronic signature provided using Orbit, Adobe Sign, Adobe Fill & Sign, DocuSign, or any other similar platform identified by the Issuer and reasonably available at no undue burden or expense to the Agents)), each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart signature page of this Agreement by e-mail (.pdf) or facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Loan Agent shall have any duty to inquire into or investigate the authenticity, sufficiency or authorization of any such electronic signature and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such electronic signature without any liability with respect thereto.

Section 8.10 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1.

Section 8.11 Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

(b) Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under Article VIII of the Indenture, any provisions of the Indenture that are incorporated by reference in this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as if fully set forth herein, shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental Indenture shall form a part of this Agreement for all purposes; and every Lender theretofore and thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

(c) (i) Other than any amendment or modification that could be effected under Article VIII of the Indenture without the consent of the Lenders, terms of this Agreement that are not related to provisions of the Indenture and that are terms uniquely affecting the Lenders may not be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the Borrower, the Agents and a Majority of the Lenders and is consented to by the Collateral Manager; provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender (with Loans being directly affected thereby in the case of the following subclause (A)), (A) extend any time fixed for the payment of any principal of the Loans, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or fees thereon, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or change the currency of payment thereof or change any Lender’s Commitment, (B) release all or substantially all of the Assets (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents), (C) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8.6 or clause (a) of this Section 8.12, (D) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority (it being understood that, with the consent of a Majority of the Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of a Majority of the Lenders on substantially the same basis as the extensions of Commitments are included on the Closing Date), (E) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (except as permitted by Section 5.10), (F) waive any Mandatory Prepayment of Loans required pursuant to Section 3.3.3 or (G) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8.20; provided, further, that, no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall increase the Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications (otherwise permitted hereunder) of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of such Lender) or without the consent of the Agents

amend, modify or waive any provision of Article VII or Section 3.6 as the same applies to the Agents. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders, the Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and all future holders of the Loans and the Lender Notes (or a Holder taking such interest in the form of a Confirmation of Registration).

Section 8.15 Confidentiality.

Section 8.16 Register. (a) The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Loan Agent will serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 8.16, to serve as registrar (the “Registrar”) by maintaining a register (the “Register”) on which it shall record the names and addresses of each Lender, the Loans (and transfers thereof) made by each such Persons and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made by such Lender shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Loan Agent with respect to ownership of such Loan as provided in this Section 8.16 and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Loan shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Loan shall be recorded by the Loan Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Loan Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 8.4(b). Each Lender shall promptly provide the Loan Agent any information reasonably requested by it for purposes of maintaining the Register. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment Agreement to the Loan Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender its Lender Notes and thereupon one or more new Lender Notes (or Confirmation of Registration) in the same aggregate principal amount shall, if requested by the assigning or transferor Lender and/or new Lender, be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender, as applicable. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(b) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters 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 the Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any Transaction Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury regulations. 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. For the avoidance of doubt, no Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

Section 8.17 Marshalling; Recapture. None of the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Loans. To the extent any Lender receives any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to the Borrower or its estate, trustee, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or Federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by the amount so repaid shall be reinstated by the amount so repaid and shall be included within the liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender as of the date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.

(ii) on each day from the date on which such Lender acquires its interest in the Loans through and including the date on which such Lender disposes of its interest in such Loans, (A) if it is, or is acting on behalf of, a Benefit Plan Investor, its acquisition, holding and disposition of such Loans do not and will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and (B) if it is a governmental, church, non-U.S. or other plan which is subject to any Other Plan Law, its acquisition, holding and disposition of such Loans will not constitute or result in a non-exempt violation of any Other Plan Law. If the purchaser or transferee of any Loans or beneficial interest therein is a Benefit Plan Investor, it will be deemed to represent, warrant and agree that (x) none of the Borrower, the Placement Agent, the Co-Manager, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Fiscal Agent, the Collateral Administrator or the Collateral Manager or any of their affiliates has provided any investment advice within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA to the Benefit Plan Investor, or to any fiduciary or other Person investing the assets of the Benefit Plan Investor (“Fiduciary”), in connection with its acquisition of the Loans, and (y) the Fiduciary is exercising its own independent judgment in evaluating the investment in the Loans. Any purported transfer of a Loan or any interest therein to a purchaser or transferee that does not comply with the requirements specified in the applicable documents will be of no force and effect and shall be null and void ab initio.

(iii) the Lender has not assigned and will not assign any of its rights under this Agreement to anyone other than a Person that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and a Qualified Purchaser and each party to whom it assigns any or all of its rights under this Agreement represents and warrants to the Borrower on the date it becomes a party to this Agreement and each date upon which a Loan is made hereunder after such date that it is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and a Qualified Purchaser and that it has not assigned or will not assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to anyone other than a Person that is a Qualified Institutional Buyer and a Qualified Purchaser.

(iv) the Lender agrees that if it no longer qualifies as a Qualified Institutional Buyer or a Qualified Purchaser, it shall notify the Borrower thereof immediately in writing and, from such time, no further Loans shall be made to the Borrower by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

(v) Each Lender (and each beneficial owner of a Loan) agrees to treat the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Loans as described in the “Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” section of the final Offering Circular for all U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes and will take no action inconsistent with such treatment unless required by law.

(vi) Each Lender (and each beneficial owner of a Loan) will timely furnish the Issuer, the Collateral Trustee or their respective agents with any tax forms or certifications (including, without limitation, IRS Form W-9, an applicable IRS Form W-8 (together with all applicable attachments), or any successors to such IRS forms) that the Issuer, the Collateral Trustee or their respective agents reasonably request in order to (A) make payments to the Lender without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding, (B) qualify for a reduced rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or through which they receive payments, and (C) satisfy reporting and other obligations under the Code, Treasury Regulations, or any other applicable law or regulation, and will update or replace such tax forms or certifications in accordance with their terms or subsequent amendments. Each Lender acknowledges that the failure to provide, update or replace any such tax forms or certifications may result in the imposition of withholding or back-up withholding on payments to the Lender, or to the Issuer. Amounts withheld by the Issuer or their agents that are, in their sole judgment, required to be withheld pursuant to applicable tax laws will be treated as having been paid to such Lender owner by the Issuer.

(vii) Each Lender (and each beneficial owner of a Loan) will provide the Issuer or its agents with any correct, complete and accurate information or documentation that may be required for the Issuer to comply with ▇▇▇▇▇, and to prevent the imposition of U.S. federal withholding tax under FATCA on payments to or for the benefit of the Issuer. The Lender acknowledges that in the event a Lender fails to provide such information or documentation for the purposes of FATCA, or to the extent that its ownership of the Loans would otherwise cause the Issuer to be subject to any tax under FATCA, (A) the Issuer (and any agent acting on its behalf) is authorized to withhold amounts otherwise distributable to such Lender as compensation for any amounts withheld from payments to or for the benefit of the Issuer as a result of such failure or such ownership, and (B) to the extent necessary to avoid an adverse effect on the Issuer as a result of such failure or such ownership, the Issuer will have the right to compel such Lender to sell its Loans and, if such Person does not sell its Loans within 10 Business Days after notice from the Issuer or its agents, the Issuer will have the right to sell such Loans at a public or private sale called and conducted in any manner permitted by law, and to remit the net proceeds of such sale (taking into account, in addition to other related costs and charges, any taxes incurred by the Issuer in connection with such sale) to such person as payment in full for such Loans. The Issuer may also assign each such Loan a separate securities identifier in the Issuer’s sole discretion. Each Lender agrees that the Issuer, the Collateral Trustee and/or their agents or representatives may (1) provide any information and documentation concerning its investment in its Loans to the IRS and any other relevant, governmental, tax or regulatory authority and (2) take such other steps as they deem necessary or helpful to ensure that the Issuer complies with FATCA.

(viii) Each Lender, if it is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), such Lender:

(A) is:

(i) not a bank (or an entity affiliated with a bank) extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code);

(ii) not a “10 percent shareholder” with respect to the holder or any beneficial owners of the Preferred Shares within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) or section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code; and

(iii) not a “controlled foreign corporation” that is related to the holder or any beneficial owners of the Preferred Shares within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;

(B) has provided an IRS Form W-8ECI representing that all payments received or to be received by it from the Issuer are effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the United States and includible in its gross income; or

(C) is eligible for benefits under an income tax treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation of payments on the Loan.

(ix) Each Lender will provide the Issuer and the Collateral Trustee with certifications necessary to establish that it is not subject to withholding tax under FATCA.

(x) Each Lender (and each beneficial owner of a Loan) represents that it is not a member of an “expanded group” (as defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.385-1(c)(4)) with respect to which a beneficial owner of Preferred Shares is a “covered member” (as defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.385-1(c)(2)), except to the extent that the Issuer or its agents have provided such beneficial owner with an express waiver of this representation.

(xi) Each Lender, if it holds Loans at any time during which it is also the sole beneficial owner (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of the Preferred Shares, it will not transfer any Loans or Preferred Shares unless, before such transfer, the Issuer shall have obtained written advice of Winston & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP or Cadwalader, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇ LLP, or an opinion of tax counsel of nationally recognized standing in the United States experienced in such matters, to the effect that such transfer will not (A) result in the Issuer becoming subject to U.S. federal income tax

with respect to its net income or subject to tax liability under Section 1446 of the Code, or (B) result in the Issuer being treated as a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purpose.

Each Lender understands that the Borrower, the Collateral Manager, the Placement Agent, the Co-Manager, the Collateral Administrator, the Collateral Trustee, the Loan Agent, the Fiscal Agent, the Share Registrar, the Administrator, the Transferor, the Depositor and their respective counsel will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the foregoing representations, and it hereby consents to such reliance. Each Lender understands that by entering into the transactions contemplated hereby it is making a loan under a commercial credit facility and that by making the foregoing representation, no Lender is characterizing the transactions contemplated herein as the making of an investment in “securities” as defined in the Securities Act.

(b) The Loan Agent, the Collateral Trustee and each Lender covenants and agrees that the obligations of the Borrower under the Loans and this Agreement are limited recourse obligations of the Borrower, payable solely from the Assets in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, and, following repayment and realization of the Assets, any claims of the Loan Agent or the Lenders and obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive, in accordance with Section 2.7 of the Indenture. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of the Loans against any member, shareholder, owner, employee, officer, director, manager, authorized Person, advisor, agent or incorporator or organizer of the Borrower or Collateral Manager or their respective successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Loans, this Agreement or the Indenture. It is understood that the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.18(b) shall not (i) prevent recourse to the Assets for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Assets or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Loans until the Assets has been realized, whereupon any outstanding indebtedness or obligation shall be extinguished and shall not thereafter revive. The provisions of this Section 8.18(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 8.19 [Reserved].

Section 8.20 No Petition. (a) The Collateral Trustee, Loan Agent and each Lender or holder of an interest herein hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries until one year (or if longer, the then applicable preference period) and one day after all Debt has been paid in full, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other similar proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

(b) This Section 8.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder.

Section 8.21 Acknowledgment. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that none of the parties hereto has any fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and the relationship between the Collateral Trustee, the Lenders

and the Loan Agent on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.

Section 8.22 Limitation on Suits. No Lender shall have any right to institute any Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Agreement or the Indenture except as provided in Section 5.3 of the Indenture.

Section 8.23 Unconditional Rights of Lenders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the Lenders shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the Loans as such principal and interest become due and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and Section 3.6 and Section 8.20, and, subject to the provisions of Section 8.22, to institute proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Lender.

Section 8.24 Termination of Agreement. Without prejudice to any provision of the Indenture, this Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder, other than those expressly specified as surviving the termination of the Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and those set forth in Sections 4.1 of the Indenture with respect to the Lenders, the Loans or the Agents, shall terminate (a) at such time that all of the Loans are repaid in full in accordance with the terms herein or (b) upon the final distribution of all proceeds of any liquidation of the Collateral Obligations, Equity Securities and Eligible Investments effected pursuant to Article V of the Indenture.

Section 8.25 Lender Information. Notice to Lenders shall be provided as set forth in Section 14.3 of the Indenture.

Section 8.26 Lender Consent. By its execution and making of Loans hereunder, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to the terms applicable to it in its capacity as a holder of the Loans and the execution of the Indenture.

Section 8.27 Withholding. If any withholding tax (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include any withholding required on account of FATCA) is imposed by applicable law on the Borrower’s payment (or allocations of income) under the Loans or if any tax is imposed on a payment to the Borrower on account of a failure of a Lender or owner of any interest therein to comply with (i) FATCA or (ii) any requirements to provide documentation to avoid withholding, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to the Lender or owner of any interest therein, and each such Lender and owner shall indemnify the Borrower for any withholding that would not have been imposed if the Lender or owner had complied with such obligations. If any withholding tax is imposed on the Borrower’s payments (or allocations of income) under the Loans to any Lender, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Lender. The Trustee or the Loan Agent is hereby authorized and directed to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to any Lender sufficient funds for the payment of any tax, including pursuant to FATCA, and to timely remit such amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. Such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee or the Loan Agent from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and withholding payment of such tax, if

permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings. The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to any Lender shall be treated as cash distributed to such Lender at the time it is withheld by the Trustee or the Loan Agent and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. If there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution and the Trustee or the Loan Agent has not received documentation from such Lender showing an exemption from withholding, the Trustee or the Loan Agent shall withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 8.27. If any Lender wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Trustee or the Loan Agent shall reasonably cooperate with such Lender in making such claim so long as such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to reimburse the Trustee or the Loan Agent for any out of pocket expenses incurred. Nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the part of the Trustee or the Loan Agent to determine the amount of any tax or withholding obligation on the part of the Borrowers or in respect of the Loans.
