(d) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under this Agreement, or any other agreement, consent of Members or otherwise, and shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to serve in such capacity and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors, assigns and administrators of the Covered Person unless otherwise provided in a written agreement with such Covered Person or in the writing pursuant to which such Covered Person is indemnified, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in Section 4.2(a) shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law, except as otherwise provided herein.

(e) Subject to Section 4.2(i), if this Section 4.2 or any portion of this Section 4.2 shall be invalidated on any ground by a court of competent jurisdiction the Company shall nevertheless indemnify each Covered Person as to expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including a grand jury proceeding or action or suit brought by or in the right of the Company, to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Section 4.2 that shall not have been invalidated.

(f) Each of the Covered Persons may, in the performance of such Covered Person’s duties, consult with legal counsel and accountants, and any act or omission by such Covered Person on behalf of the Company in furtherance of the interests of the Company in good faith in reliance upon, and in accordance with, the advice of such legal counsel or accountants will be full justification for any such act or omission, and such Covered Person will be fully protected for such acts and omissions; provided that such legal counsel or accountants were selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company.

(g) A Covered Person shall, in the performance of such Covered Person’s duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Company and on such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company by any of the officers or employees of the Company or of any of its Affiliates, or by any other person as to matters such Covered Person reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence.

(h) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 4.2 or any provision hereof shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of any indemnitee under this Section 4.2 as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted and provided such Person became an indemnitee hereunder prior to such amendment, modification or repeal.

(i) A Covered Person seeking indemnification under this Section 4.2 will give prompt written notice to the Company of any third party claim that may give rise to indemnification under this Section 4.2, provided that any failure or delay in providing timely notice shall not affect the rights or obligations of the Company except to the extent that, as a result of such failure, the Company shall have been prejudiced by the Covered Person’s failure to give such notice, in which case the Company shall be relieved from its obligations hereunder only to the extent of such prejudice. If the Company elects to conduct the defense of the third party claim, the Covered Person will cooperate with and make available to the Company such assistance, personnel, witnesses and materials as the Company may reasonably request. The Company may elect at any time to negotiate a settlement or a compromise of such action or claim or to defend such action or claim, in each case at its sole cost and expense and with its own counsel. If, within thirty (30) days of receipt from a Covered Person of the notice referred to above, the Company (i) advises the Covered Person in writing that it shall not elect to defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim or (ii) fails to make such an election in writing, the Covered Person may (subject to the Company’s continuing right of election in the preceding sentence), at such Covered Person’s option, defend, settle, compromise or pay such action or claim; provided that any such settlement or compromise shall be permitted hereunder only with the written consent of the Company and, to the extent that the underlying claim

involves the Managing Member, Blackstone and NRZ, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company shall not settle any third party claim subject to indemnification under this Section 4.2 against a Covered Person where the Covered Person is not released from liability resulting from such third party claim without the Covered Person’s consent.

(j) Any payment required to be made by the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be paid using Net Cash Flow available on a monthly basis, or, to the extent such Net Cash Flow is insufficient to pay the full amount of such payment, by a Mandatory Capital Contribution.

A Member shall indemnify the Company and each of the other Members, and their respective Affiliates, each officer, director, employee and legal representative thereof, for any costs or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by such Person as a result of any action by such Member in violation of this Agreement, including the failure of a Member to make a Mandatory Capital Contribution. If any Member (or in the case of the Indemnification and Contribution Agreement, its Affiliate) is sued or held liable, solely in its capacity as a Member and investor in the Company or with respect to the Indemnification and Contribution Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), and suffers damages in connection therewith for which the other Members are not similarly held liable, then such other Members (the “Indemnifying Parties”) shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for a portion of such damages on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Indemnifying Parties’ respective Membership Percentages.

4.4 Corporate Opportunities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or under applicable principles of law to the contrary, (i) each Member and any of its Affiliates may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures, transactions or activities that may be similar or dissimilar to the business of the Company and the Company Sister Entities and its or their respective Affiliates (each, a “Corporate Opportunity”), independently or with others, whether currently existing or hereafter created, and the pursuit of any such Corporate Opportunity shall not be deemed wrongful or improper or give rise to any liability of the Member or its Affiliates to the Company, any Company Sister Entities, any other Member or any of its or their respective Affiliates and (ii) the Company, the Company Sister Entities, any other Member and its or their respective Affiliates shall not have any right to participate in such other Corporate Opportunity or to receive or share in any income or profits derived therefrom; provided that the foregoing notwithstanding, nothing contained in this Section 4.4 shall limit the confidentiality obligations under Section 3.9. No Member or any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to present any Corporate Opportunity to any other Member, the Company or the Company Sister Entities even if such Corporate Opportunity is of a character that, if presented to such Member, the Company or such Company Sister Entities, could be taken by such Person.

The Managing Member, at Company expense, shall cause to be delivered to each Member (in each case, (a) prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject to the absence of footnote disclosures and year-end audit adjustments) and (b) accompanied by a certificate signed by a natural person designated by the Managing Member stating that such financial report is, to the best of its or her knowledge, true and accurate): (i) as soon as available, but in any event within 120 days after the close of the Company’s Fiscal Year or otherwise as promptly as practicable, audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Company Trust for the Fiscal Year then ended (including a balance sheet and statements of income and cash flows), together with each Member’s closing Capital Account in the Company as of the end of such period and the manner of the calculation thereof, and (ii) as soon as

available, but in any event within 60 days after March 31, June 30 and September 30 of each Fiscal Year or otherwise as promptly as practicable, unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Company Trust for the quarter then ended (including a balance sheet and statements of income and cash flows), together with each Member’s closing Capital Account in the Company as of the end of such period and the manner of the calculation thereof. With reasonable promptness, the Company shall deliver to each Member, as long as such Member or any of its Affiliates holds any Interest in the Company, such further information with respect to the business, affairs and financial condition of the Company as from time to time may be reasonably requested by any Member. The requesting Member shall pay the cost and expense of providing all such information.

5.5 Actions Without a Meeting and Telephonic Meetings. All actions requiring the consent of the Members provided for herein may be taken by written consent without a meeting, or any meeting thereof may be called by the Managing Member and held by means of a conference telephone that includes all Members that hold a Membership Percentage equal to or in excess of 10%. Any action that may be taken by the Members without a meeting shall be effective only if the written consent or consents are in writing, set forth the action so taken, and are signed by all the Members that are entitled to consent to such action.

ARTICLE 6

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

6.1 Members’ Capital Contributions.

(a) Initial Capital Contributions. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Company of all of the conditions to the Company’s obligation to effect the Loan Purchase Closing set forth in Sections 8.01 and 8.03 of the Purchase Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Loan Purchase Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver thereof by the Company at the Loan Purchase Closing), each of Springleaf, NRZ and Blackstone shall contribute its Initial Capital Contribution to the Company at the request of the Managing Member. Each Member shall fund its Initial Capital Contribution contemporaneous with the Loan Purchase Closing. The Equity Commitment Amount shall be determined by the Managing Member based on its good faith estimates of the amounts set forth in the definition of “Equity Commitment Amount”; provided, that the estimate of the Transaction Fees and Expenses shall be increased by an amount equal to 10% of such estimate. The Managing Member shall cause the Initial Capital Contributions to be used to pay the Purchase Price allocable to the Loans acquired by the Company Trust and to pay the other allocable amounts contemplated in the definition of the Equity Commitment Amount. The obligations of each Member to contribute its Initial Capital Contribution shall be irrevocable and shall continue in effect until the earlier of (i) the contribution by such Member of its Initial Capital Contribution to the Company, or (ii) the termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms. No later than ten (10) days following the final determination of the Post-Closing Adjustment in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, to the extent any portion of the estimated equity portion of the Closing Cash Consideration has not been used by the Company, the Managing Member shall distribute such portion to the Members in proportion to their respective Membership Percentages.

The Managing Member shall promptly provide the Members with written notice of any changes in its estimates pursuant to the proviso in the immediately prior paragraph. The Managing Member shall also provide to the Members copies of all calculations, adjustments and statements delivered or received pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Purchase Agreement.

(b) Mandatory Capital Contributions. No Member shall be required to make additional Capital Contributions to the Company, except (i) as determined by the unanimous consent of the Members, (ii) as determined by the Managing Member to be necessary in order to pay any amount due and payable by the Company for the Post-Closing Adjustment or to pay any Fees and Expenses, (iii) for costs incurred by Springleaf if Springleaf is required, on behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, to repurchase a Loan in connection with a breach of any representation or warranty made in connection with the Debt Financing for the purchase of the Purchased Assets, (iv) to reimburse the Servicer for amounts advanced by the Servicer to fund revolving draws pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, (v) for amounts paid by SFI to the Indenture Trustee under the Performance Support Agreement, (vi) as necessary to fulfill the Company’s obligations under this Agreement (A) to indemnify the Covered Persons pursuant to Section 4.2 (subject to Section 4.2(j)) or (B) to reimburse and indemnify the Servicer pursuant to Schedule II, (vii) for payments required to be made by the Company under Section 10 of the Co-Borrower Agreement or (viii) for amounts paid by SFI to Wilmington Trust, National Association (“WTNA”) under the separate letter indemnity agreement between SFI and WTNA in connection with WTNA acting as loan trustee to the Purchaser Entities and the Purchaser SPVs (each such additional Capital Contribution, a “Mandatory Capital Contribution”). No Member shall be required to make any Mandatory Capital Contribution for an Ongoing Fee and Expense pursuant to clause (ii) above if Net Cash Flow is available for a Distribution, either on the date the Managing Member becomes aware of the need for such Mandatory Capital Contribution (the “Contribution Determination Date”) or during the period ending on the earlier of either (x) the first Payment Date (as such term is defined in the Servicing Agreement) after the Contribution Determination Date or (y) 30 days after the Contribution Determination Date, in which event the Net Cash Flow will be used to fund such Ongoing Fee and Expense that would otherwise constitute a Mandatory Capital Contribution. Any additional Capital Contributions required to be made by the Members pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) shall be made by the Members pro rata in proportion to their respective Membership Percentages. If the Members by unanimous consent or the Managing Member shall request a Mandatory Capital Contribution from the Members in accordance with this Section 6.01(b), the Members shall receive written notice of the anticipated funding date of such Mandatory Capital Contribution at least thirty (30) days (or any such shorter period as the Members may agree) prior to such anticipated funding date, provided that the Managing Member shall have the ability to call for a Mandatory Capital Contribution in advance for reasonably estimated costs and expenses that are the subject of such Mandatory Capital Contribution.

(c) Dilution for Failure to Fund a Mandatory Capital Contribution. If at any time or times any Member fails to make timely its pro rata share of Mandatory Capital Contributions in accordance with Section 6.1(b), and such failure shall continue beyond five (5) days after notice from the Managing Member with respect to the failure to make a Mandatory Capital Contribution, and after the Managing Member has made its own Capital Contribution, such Member shall be deemed to be a “Non-Participating Member”; provided, that if the Managing Member has not made its own Mandatory Capital Contribution and any other Member

has made its Mandatory Capital Contribution, then the Managing Member shall be deemed to be a Non-Participating Member. In such event, in addition to any other remedies that may be available at law or in equity, including pursuant to this Agreement, the Members making their full Mandatory Capital Contribution (the “Participating Members”) may, at their election, contribute to the Company, pro rata according to their Membership Percentages, an amount equal to any or all of all or any part of the amount which the Non-Participating Member failed to contribute to the Company (the “Shortfall Amount”), in which case the amount so contributed shall be deemed a Capital Contribution by the Participating Members as of the date made; provided, that in the event Blackstone is the Non-Participating Member, the Major Parties shall contribute to the Company, pro rata according to their Membership Percentages, an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount. In the event that the Participating Members make a Capital Contribution pursuant to this Section 6.1(c), the Membership Percentage of the Non-Participating Member shall be reduced to an amount equal to the fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is the Capital Contributions of such Member and the denominator of which is the sum of (i) the Capital Contributions of all Members prior to the subject Mandatory Capital Contribution, (ii) any such Mandatory Capital Contributions funded by the Members (not including any Shortfall Amount funded by the Participating Members), and (iii) the Shortfall Amount funded by the Participating Members; provided, that in the event Blackstone is a Non-Participating Member and a No Clawback Event has occurred, then to the extent the Participating Members make a Capital Contribution pursuant to this Section 6.1(c) with respect to such Shortfall Amount (the “Blackstone Shortfall Amount”),

(1) the Membership Percentage of Blackstone shall be reduced to an amount equal to the fraction, expressed as a percentage,

(A) the numerator of which is the sum of (i) Capital Contributions of Blackstone prior to the subject Mandatory Capital Contribution, and (ii) any such Mandatory Capital Contributions funded by Blackstone, and

(B) the denominator of which is the sum of (i) the Capital Contributions of all Members prior to the subject Mandatory Capital Contribution, (ii) any such Mandatory Capital Contributions funded by the Members (not including any Blackstone Shortfall Amount funded by the Participating Members), and (iii) an amount equal to the Blackstone Shortfall Amount funded by the Participating Members multiplied by two (such amount, the “Dilution Amount”), and

(2) the Membership Percentage of each Participating Member shall be increased to an amount equal to the fraction, expressed as a percentage,

(A) the numerator of which is the sum of (i) the Capital Contributions of such Participating Member prior to the subject Mandatory Capital Contribution, (ii) any such Mandatory Capital Contributions funded by such Participating Member (not including any Blackstone Shortfall Amount funded by such Participating Member), and (iii) an amount equal to the Blackstone Shortfall Amount funded by such Participating Member multiplied by two, and

(d) The Managing Member, at its option, may elect to apply Distributions otherwise distributable pursuant to Section 8.1(a) to Blackstone to repay to each Participating Member any outstanding Blackstone Shortfall Amount funded by such Participating Member and not yet repaid pursuant to this Section 6.1(d). To the extent that a Participating Member has been repaid an amount of the Blackstone Shortfall Amount, the Managing Member shall adjust the Membership Percentage of such Participating Member and Blackstone to account for the funding of such Capital Contribution by Blackstone and not such Participating Member; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Membership Percentage of such Participating Member will retain the benefit of the increase, and Blackstone will remain subject to the decrease, resulting from the Dilution Amount above such returned Capital Contribution; and provided, further, that the sum of all allocations of Distributions pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) shall not exceed the aggregate Blackstone Shortfall Amount on a cumulative basis.

(e) The funding by the Participating Members of any Shortfall Amount shall not be deemed to limit any indemnification claim for costs or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) payable by the Non-Participating Member in accordance with Section 4.3, and the Members agree that the Participating Members shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Non-Participating Member for any Shortfall Amount funded by the Participating Members; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (including Sections 6.1(c) and 12.14) the sole remedy for the Company and the Members for Blackstone’s failure to fund a Mandatory Capital Contribution to the extent the Blackstone Funding Parties are not required to fund capital under the terms of the Blackstone Letter shall be the remedies set forth in Section 6.1(c) and (d).

6.2 No Liability for Capital Contributions. No Member shall be personally liable to any other Member for the payment of any Capital Contribution of any other Member.

ARTICLE 7

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATION AND DETERMINATION OF NET PROFITS

AND NET LOSS

7.1 Capital Accounts. A capital account shall be established and maintained for each Member on the books of the Company (each Member’s capital account being hereinafter referred to as such Member’s “Capital Account”) and shall initially equal (x) in the case of the Members on the date hereof, the amount set forth opposite such Member’s name on Schedule I hereto, and (y) in the case of any other Member, the total amount of capital contributed by such Member to the Company upon admission to the Company, and throughout the term of the Company shall be (i) increased by the amount of (A) Net Profits allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 7.2

hereof, (B) any additional Capital Contributions contributed by such Member, and (C) the amount of any Company liabilities assumed by such Member or which are secured by any property distributed to such Member and (ii) decreased by (A) the amount of Net Loss allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 7.2 hereof, (B) the amount of distributions in cash and the fair market value of distributions of property made to such Member, and (C) the amount of any liabilities of such Member assumed by the Company or which are secured by any property contributed by such Member to the Company. In determining the amount of any liabilities for purposes of this Section 7.1 there shall be taken into account Code Section 752(c) and any other applicable provisions of the Code and Regulations.

7.2 Allocation of Net Profits and Net Loss. Subject to any special allocations required by Sections 7.6 and 7.7, Net Profits or Net Loss shall be allocated among the Members to be shared by them on a pro rata basis in accordance with their Membership Percentages.

7.3 No Interest on Capital Accounts. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Company shall not pay to any Member, and no Member shall be entitled to receive, interest on the amount of its Capital Account.

7.4 Allocation of Income and Loss for Tax Purposes. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.4, for Federal income tax purposes, all items of income, gain, deduction or loss for any year shall be allocated in accordance with the manner in which such items of income, gain, deduction or loss affected the amounts which were either charged or credited to the Capital Accounts of the Members for such year. To the extent that any items of income, gain, deduction or loss are attributable to property for which the Tax Basis differs from its Book Basis, such items shall be allocated among the Members for Federal income tax purposes in accordance with section 704(c) of the Code so as to take account of any such difference.

7.5 Determination by the Tax Matters Partner. All matters concerning the allocation of Net Profits and Net Losses among the Members, including the tax treatment thereof, and accounting procedures, not specifically and expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Tax Matters Partner in consultation with the Managing Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior consent of a Member, no such allocation methodology shall be made that has a material adverse effect to such Member if such effect on such Member, as compared to the effect of the allocation methodology on other Members, is materially disproportionate, assuming for these purposes that all such Members are similarly situated for federal and state income (and all other) tax purposes; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required in any circumstance in which the Tax Matters Partner in consultation with the Managing Member determines that such tax determination is required by law to be made. Any determination made pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall be final and conclusive as to all of the Members.

7.6 Tax Considerations.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of Capital Accounts are intended to comply with section 1.704-1(b) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such regulation. The Tax Matters Partner in consultation with the Managing Member shall be authorized to make appropriate amendments

to the allocations of items pursuant to Article 7 if necessary in order to comply with section 704 of the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder; provided, that no such change shall have an adverse effect upon the amount distributable to any Member pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Qualified Income Offset. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in Section 7.2, no item of deduction or loss shall be allocated to a Member to the extent the allocation would cause a negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account (after taking into account the adjustments, allocations and distributions described in sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) and (6) of the Treasury Regulations) that exceeds the amount that such Member would be required to reimburse the Company pursuant to this paragraph or under applicable law. In the event some but not all of the Members would otherwise have such excess Capital Account deficits as a consequence of such an allocation of loss or deduction, the limitation set forth in this Section 7.6(b) shall be applied on a Member by Member basis so as to allocate the maximum permissible deduction or loss to each Member under section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Treasury Regulations. In the event any loss or deduction shall be specially allocated to a Member pursuant to the preceding sentence, an equal amount of income or gain of the Company shall be specially allocated to such Member prior to any other allocation pursuant to Section 7.2. This Section 7.6(b) is intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” in accordance with section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) of the Treasury Regulations, and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(c) Minimum Gain Chargeback. The Company shall allocate items of income and gain among the Members at such times and in such amounts as necessary to satisfy the minimum gain chargeback requirements of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.704-2(f) and 1.704-2(i)(4).

(d) Member Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Treasury Regulations, notwithstanding any other provision of Article 7, if there is a net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to a Member Nonrecourse Debt during the applicable period, each Member who has a share of the Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Section 1.704-2(i)(5) of the Treasury Regulations, shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain for such period (and if necessary, subsequent periods) in an amount equal to such Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain attributable to such Member Nonrecourse Debt, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(4). Allocations pursuant to the previous sentence shall be made in proportion to the respective amounts required to be allocated to each Member pursuant thereto. The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. This Section 7.6(d) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Section 1.704-2(i)(4) of the Treasury Regulations and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

(e) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions for any applicable period shall be specially allocated among the Members in accordance with their Membership Percentages, except to the extent that the Code and Treasury Regulations require that such deductions be allocated in some other manner. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any applicable period shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(i)(1).

(f) Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset, pursuant to Code Section 734(b) or Code Section 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of such Member’s Interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their Interests in the Company in the event Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Member to whom such distribution was made in the event Treasury Regulations Section 1.704 1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.

7.7 Transfer of Interests. If all or any part of a Member’s Interest in the Company is transferred in accordance with this Agreement, the transferee shall succeed to the Capital Account of the transferor to the extent it is related to such transferred Interest; provided, however, that each item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit of the Company for such taxable year will be allocated among the Members in accordance with any method permitted by Code Section 706(d) and the Treasury Regulations thereunder in order to take into account the Members’ varying interests in the Company during such taxable year.

7.8 No Withdrawal. No Member shall be entitled to withdraw any part of such Member’s Capital Contributions or Capital Account or to receive any distribution from the Company, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE 8

DISTRIBUTIONS

8.1 Distributions.

(a) Amounts and Timing. All Net Cash Flow will be distributed to the Members pro rata, based on their respective Membership Percentages (“Distributions”). The Managing Member shall cause the Company Trust to distribute cash to the Company for purposes of the foregoing, as frequently as the Managing Member shall reasonably determine, subject to adjustment for corrections (if any). The Reserves may include expenses incurred as of the date hereof and reasonably foreseeable expenses. The Reserves shall not include amounts for transactions unrelated to the Portfolio unless otherwise agreed to by unanimous consent of the Members.

(b) Limited Recourse. The Members shall look solely to the assets of the Company for any distributions, whether liquidating distributions or otherwise. If the assets of the Company remaining after the payment or discharge, or the provision for payment or discharge, of the debts, obligations, and other liabilities of the Company are insufficient to make any distributions, no Member shall have any recourse against the separate assets of any other Member (except as otherwise expressly provided in any other agreement to which a Member is a party).

8.2 Form of Distributions. Any distribution made pursuant to this Agreement may be made in cash or, with the unanimous consent of the Members, in kind. The Managing Member shall use its best efforts to make distributions in kind on a proportionate basis among those Members receiving distributions.

8.3 Withholding. The Tax Matters Partner in consultation with the Managing Member shall withhold, or cause to be withheld, from distributions, payments, or with respect to allocations, to the Members and shall pay over to any federal, state, local or foreign government any amounts required to be so withheld pursuant to the Code or any provisions of any other federal, state, local or foreign law and shall allocate any such amounts to the Member with respect to which such amount was withheld. The payment by the Company of any such amount to a government shall be treated as a distribution to the Member with respect to which such amount was withheld. If the Tax Matters Partner in consultation with the Managing Member determines that the Company lacks sufficient funds to make distributions in an aggregate amount that would allow for any such withholding, the Member for whom such withholding is to be made shall pay to the Company cash or immediately available funds in the amount needed by the Company to satisfy such withholding liability within ten (10) days after being so notified in writing by the Company. In the event that any Member fails to timely make any such payment, such Member shall be in default and shall indemnify and hold the Company and the other Members harmless for any costs, penalties, payments or damages incurred by the Company or the other Members as a result of such failure (including any taxes owed by the Company or such other Members as a result of the receipt of such amounts). The Company shall have the authority to apply any distributions to which such defaulting Member would otherwise be entitled towards the satisfaction of amounts owed to the Company or the other Members by such defaulting Member pursuant to this Section 8.3. Payments made by any Member pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall not be considered capital contributions and shall not increase the Capital Account of the Member making such payment.

ARTICLE 9

TRANSFER OF COMPANY INTERESTS; ADMISSION OF NEW MEMBERS

9.1 Transfer of Company Interest.

(a) Subject to Sections 9.1(b), (c), (d) and (e), no Member will be permitted to (i) sell, exchange, transfer, assign, participate, pledge or otherwise dispose of (a “Transfer”) or (ii) give, encumber, assign, pledge, mortgage, hypothecate or otherwise use as collateral or other security all or any part of its Interest without the written consent of the other Members; provided, that (but subject to Sections 9.1(b), (c), (d) and (e)) (A) a Member may Transfer all or part of its Interest (the “Transferred Interest”) to an Affiliate at any time, but in the event of the Transfer of the Interest of a Member (the “Transferring Member”) to an Affiliate (other than a Permitted Affiliate Transfer), the Transferring Member shall remain liable for all obligations applicable to the Transferred Interest; provided, further, that if the Transferring Member requests the consent of the other Members (the “Non Transferring Members”) to approve the release of the Transferring Member from any future obligations applicable to the Transferred Interest, the Non

Transferring Members shall not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay their consent to such release (provided that the proposed replacement member has a creditworthiness substantially similar to, or greater than, the creditworthiness of the Transferring Member), and (B) from and after the third anniversary of the date hereof, the Transfer of the Interest of a Member to a third party purchaser in a bona fide transaction will be permitted (subject to the next following sentence), if the Transferring Member provides notice to the Non Transferring Members of the terms of the proposed Transfer of the offered Interests (the “Offered Interests”) (including the price for the proposed Transfer (the “Offer Price”)), and the Non-Transferring Members do not within the Exercise Period (as defined below) exercise their rights of first offer to acquire the Transferring Member’s Offered Interests at a price equal to the Offer Price. To the extent that the Non-Transferring Members elect not to acquire any of the Offered Interests, the Transferring Member will have ninety (90) days following the expiration of the Exercise Period to sell such Offered Interests to the Proposed Transferee at a price at least equal to 95% of the Offer Price and subject to terms that are substantially similar to those proposed by the Transferring Member to the Non-Transferring Member, or better, taken as a whole, for the Transferring Member; provided, that (x) in the event of any Transfer by the Members other than Springleaf, the Managing Member consents to the identity of the proposed transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if the Proposed Transferee has a creditworthiness substantially similar to, or greater than, the creditworthiness of the Transferring Member (taking into account any credit support provided with respect to such Transferring Member, including, with respect to BTO Willow Holdings, L.P., the Blackstone Letter), and (y) in the event of any Transfer by Springleaf, NRZ consents to the Proposed Transferee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if the Proposed Transferee has a creditworthiness substantially similar to, or greater than, the creditworthiness of the Transferring Member (taking into account any credit support provided with respect to such Transferring Member). Each Non-Transferring Member will have the right to purchase all or any portion of the Offered Interests offered to be sold by the Transferring Member. The Non-Transferring Members will have fifteen (15) days (the “Exercise Period”) to decide whether to purchase Offered Interests. Each Non-Transferring Member exercising its right of first offer will have up to thirty (30) days following the Exercise Period to consummate the purchase of the Offered Interests. The right of first offer shall not apply to the Transfer of Interests to any Affiliate of the Transferring Member. In the event more than one Non Transferring Member elects to purchase the Offered Interests, the portion of the Offered Interests to be purchased by such Non Transferring Members shall be determined on a pro rata basis in accordance with such Non Transferring Members’ respective Interests. If the Major Parties provide notice of their intent to Transfer all their Interests that, in the aggregate, are equal to or in excess of an aggregate Membership Percentage equal to 50%, in any Drag-Along Sale, then any exercise of the right of first offer shall be for all Offered Interests (not in part).

(b) The Managing Member shall at all times retain a Membership Percentage equal to or greater than 10% of the aggregate Interests of all Members, unless the Managing Member obtains the prior written consent of Blackstone and NRZ to retain a Membership Percentage less than 10% of the aggregate Interests of all Members. The Managing Member may not transfer its right to act as the Managing Member to any Person that is not a wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary of SFI without the prior written consent of Blackstone and NRZ.

(c) The rights of each Member set forth in Sections 3.1(c), 3.2(a), 3.5, 5.2, 5.3 and Section 7 of Schedule II, the rights of Blackstone under Section 6.1(c) and (d) with respect to its failure to make a Mandatory Capital Contribution, and the rights of each Member to Transfer its Interest to a third party purchaser in a bona fide transaction under Section 9.1(a), are non-transferable; provided, that each Member may transfer such rights, to the extent held by such Member, to one transferee that together with its Affiliates would hold an aggregate Membership Percentage equal to or greater than 10% of the aggregate Interests of all Members following such transfer.

(d) No Member may transfer shares to any Competitor of SFI or its wholly owned subsidiaries without the consent of Springleaf (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, that no such consent of Springleaf shall be required if the Competitor that is a proposed transferee agrees that it shall not have the right to attend any quarterly meeting pursuant to Section 5.2 nor the right to request or receive any Confidential Information (other than, to the extent such information constitutes Confidential Information, normal monthly, quarterly or annual servicing reports, Company financial statements or similar Loan performance information).

(e) No Member may Transfer all or part of its Interest, and any such attempted Transfer shall be void ab initio, unless the following conditions are met:

(i) prior to and as a condition of such Transfer, the Transferring Member obtains a certification from the prospective transferee, in which the prospective transferee certifies that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.8(n) and (o) are true and will be true, to the extent they refer to future occurrences, in all respects;

(ii) after giving effect to such transaction, there are (A) no more than 15 Members of the Company and (B) no more than 95 beneficial owners of the Company or any entity owned by the Company for purposes of section 1.7704-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations, including as a beneficial owner with respect to an entity owned by the Company a holder of “notes” which have been issued by such entity (and not otherwise retained by such entity), which notes were not issued pursuant to a “will” level opinion as to their treatment as debt for Federal income tax purposes; and

(iii) after giving effect to such Transfer, the Company would not be required to register as an investment company under, or otherwise be in violation of, the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder.

(f) In the event of a purported Transfer by a Member of any Interest in violation of the provisions of this Agreement, such purported Transfer shall be void, and the Company will not give effect to such Transfer.

9.2 Drag-Along Rights.

(a) If the Major Parties (including their Affiliates that are Members) (the “Drag-Along Sellers”) propose to Transfer for cash or Qualified Securities, in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, either (x) a portion of their Interests that, in the aggregate, is equal to or in excess of the applicable Threshold Percentage or (y) all their Interests

that, in the aggregate, is equal to or in excess of an aggregate Membership Percentage equal to 50% (each, a “Drag-Along Sale”), to a Person or Persons other than a Major Party or an Affiliate of a Major Party (a “Drag-Along Purchaser”), then such Drag-Along Sellers shall have a right (a “Drag-Along Right”), but not an obligation, to require Blackstone and its Affiliates that are Members (the “Required Sellers”) to tender for purchase to the Drag-Along Purchaser, on the same terms and conditions that apply to the Drag-Along Sellers, a proportionate share of the Interests held by the Required Sellers equal to the proportionate share of the Interests held by the Drag-Along Sellers that are subject to the Drag-Along Sale (the “Dragged Interests”).

(b) If the Drag-Along Sellers elect to exercise the Drag-Along Right under this Section 9.2 with respect to the Dragged Interests, such Drag-Along Sellers shall notify the Required Sellers in writing (the “Drag-Along Notice”). Each Drag-Along Notice shall set forth: (i) the proposed amount and form of consideration and terms and conditions of payment offered by the Drag-Along Purchaser(s) and a summary of any other material terms pertaining to such Drag-Along Sale; and (ii) the Dragged Interests. The Drag-Along Notice shall be given at least thirty (30) days before the closing of the proposed Drag-Along Sale.

(c) Upon the receipt of a Drag-Along Notice, the Required Sellers shall be obligated to sell the Dragged Interests set forth in its Drag-Along Notice on the terms set forth therein and shall execute and/or deliver all instruments, documents and agreements required to be delivered pursuant to such terms.

(d) At the closing of the Transfer to any Drag-Along Purchaser(s) pursuant to this Section 9.2, the Drag-Along Purchaser(s) shall remit to each Drag-Along Seller and the Required Sellers the consideration to be paid for the Interest being purchased from such Drag-Along Seller and the Required Sellers pursuant to the Drag-Along Notice, minus, in each case, any consideration to be escrowed or otherwise held back (the “Holdback Amount”) (which Holdback Amount shall be allocated pro rata among the Drag-Along Sellers and the Required Sellers based on the Interests sold by each) against delivery of the Interests being purchased from the Drag-Along Sellers and the Required Sellers.

The Tag-Along Right may be exercised by any Tag-Along Offeree by delivery of a written notice to the Tag-Along Seller and the Company (the “Tag-Along Notice”) within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Sale Notice from such Tag-Along Seller. The Tag-Along Notice shall state the Interest that such Tag-Along Offeree proposes to include in such Transfer to the proposed Tag-Along Purchaser (not to exceed the number as determined above).
