AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF PURCHASES

SECTION 2.01. Purchase Facility.

(a) From time to time the Transferor may make available to the Transferee its inventory of Eligible Medallion Loans for the purpose of the Transferee’s considering whether it wishes to purchase any such loans. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Transferee may in its sole discretion purchase Medallion Loans and Related Assets with respect thereto from the Transferor from time to time during the period from the date the conditions precedent to the initial Purchase in Section 3.01 are satisfied to the Termination Date. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be or construed as a commitment by the Transferee to purchase any Medallion Loans or Related Assets at any time.

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Purchase or contribution made hereunder shall constitute a sale or contribution of such assets, which transfer is absolute and irrevocable and provides the Transferee with the full benefits of ownership of the purchased Medallion Loans and Related Assets. Neither the Transferor nor the Transferee intends the transfers contemplated hereunder to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from the Transferee to the Transferor secured by such transferred assets.

(c) In the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, any Medallion Loans are held to be the property of the Transferor, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such Medallion Loans, then this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement, the conveyance provided for in Section 2.01(a) shall be deemed to be a grant by the Transferor to the Transferee of a security interest in all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (i) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit and uncertificated securities consisting of, arising from or relating to (a) the Medallion Loans, (b) the Related Assets with respect to such Medallion Loans, including the Obligor Notes, related security agreements and all other Loan Documents, (c) all Collections with respect to such Medallion Loans, including all cash collections and other cash proceeds of Medallion Loans, as well as other proceeds of such Medallion Loans or (d) all monies from time to time on deposit in, and all securities, instruments and other investments purchased from time to time with monies on deposit in, any Lock-Box Account or the Collection Account (whether or not allocated to any sub-account thereof) and (ii) all cash and non-cash proceeds of any of the foregoing.

(d) In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchases made hereunder shall constitute sales of such Medallion Loans rather than a loan secured by such Medallion Loans, the Transferor agrees to note on its financial statements that such Medallion Loans and Related Assets have been sold to the Transferee.

(e) In furtherance of each Purchase, the Transferor shall execute and deliver to the Transferee a fully executed Transfer Agreement in the form included herein as Exhibit A in which the Medallion Loans being transferred by the Transferor to the Transferee by such Purchase shall be identified.

SECTION 2.02. Purchases from the Transferor.

(a) The initial Purchase shall be made on the Closing Date, provided that a notice requesting such Purchase (such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto) is received by the Transferee on or before the date of such initial Purchase. Each subsequent Purchase shall be made on a Business Day following the receipt by the Transferee of a written notice from the Transferor (such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto), with a copy sent to the Administrative Agent, at least one (1) Business Day before such subsequent purchase date. The Transferee shall promptly, after the receipt of such notice, notify the Transferor whether the Transferee has determined to make such Purchase.

(b) The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for Medallion Loans (together with Related Assets) shall be the Outstanding Balance of such Medallion Loans on the Transfer

Date (after giving effect to the scheduled payments due (whether or not received) on such Medallion Loans on or before the Transfer Date) plus accrued interest to but not including the Transfer Date, except that the Transferor may treat a portion of the Medallion Loans as a contribution to the capital of the Transferee in accordance with Section 2.02(d). No offset of any kind by the Transferee with respect to any Purchase shall be permitted against the Purchase Price.

(c) The Transferee shall pay the Purchase Price for Medallion Loans (together with Related Assets) sold by the Transferor under this Agreement after the Closing Date on the Transfer Date on which such Medallion Loans are purchased, such payment to be made in cash, subject to Section 2.02(d). On the date of each Purchase, the Transferee shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make available to the Transferor the Purchase Price in same day funds.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Transferor and the Transferee so elect, on any such Transfer Date the Transferor may designate in writing pursuant to the Form of Purchase Notice attached hereto as Exhibit C, all or a portion of the Medallion Loans (but not a portion of any individual Medallion Loan) proposed to be transferred to the Transferee on such Transfer Date as a capital contribution to the Transferee. In such an event, the Purchase Price payable with respect to such Purchase shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price that would be attributable to the contributed Medallion Loans if such Medallion Loans were sold, rather than contributed, to the Transferee hereunder; provided, however, that Medallion Loans contributed to the Transferee as capital shall otherwise constitute Medallion Loans for purposes of this Agreement. The Transferor and the Transferee hereby agree to note any such capital contribution on their respective financial statements.

SECTION 2.03. No Obligations or Taxes. The Transferor represents and warrants that (i) there will be no obligations of the Transferor under any Medallion Loans conveyed to the Transferee hereunder after the Closing Date remaining to be performed (and the exercise by the Transferee of any of its rights thereunder or hereunder shall not relieve the Transferor of such obligations if they do exist) and (ii) there will not be payable any taxes, including, without limitation, sales, excise and personal property taxes, in connection with any Medallion Loans conveyed to the Transferee hereunder after the Closing Date, except for income and similar taxes in connection with any Medallion Loans payable by the Transferor for periods on and prior to the Closing Date and payable by the Transferee for periods after the Closing Date.

SECTION 2.04. Collections.

(a) Any Collections of Medallion Loans received (or deemed to have been received) by the Transferor after the applicable Transfer Date shall not be commingled with other funds and shall be remitted directly to the Transferee by depositing such Collections in the Collection Account within one (1) Business Day of the Transferor’s receipt thereof.

(b) If, after the Transfer Date with respect to a Medallion Loan, the Transferee receives any amounts in respect of a scheduled payment due on or before the Transfer Date of such Medallion Loan, the Transferee shall remit such amounts to the Transferor within one (1) Business Day of the Transferee’s receipt thereof.

being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by an Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of the following, excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct (including breach of covenant or representation) or the reckless disregard of its own duties on the part of the Transferee or any Secured Party, as the case may be, or (b) recourse for uncollectible Medallion Loans:

(i) reliance on any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Transferor or any of its Affiliates (or any of their respective officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Operative Document or any other information or report delivered by the Transferor pursuant this Agreement or any other Operative Document (including, without limitation, any representation with respect to a Loan’s classification by the Transferor as an Eligible Medallion Loan), which shall have been false or incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made or delivered;

(ii) the failure by the Transferor to comply with any term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement, or with any applicable law, rule or regulation (including tax laws, rules or regulations) with respect to any Medallion Loan or the related Loan Documents or any Affiliated Loan Sale Agreement with which compliance is required of the Transferor, or the nonconformity of any Medallion Loan or the related Loan Documents or any Affiliated Loan Sale Agreement with any such applicable law, rule or regulation;

(iii) the failure to vest and maintain vested in the Transferee or to transfer to the Transferee, legal and equitable title to and ownership of, or security interest in, any Medallion Loans together with all Related Assets, free and clear of any Lien (except for Permitted Participation Interests and as permitted hereunder) whether existing at the time of any Purchase or at any time thereafter;

(iv) the failure to file, or any delay in filing, financing statements, continuation statements or other similar instruments or documents under the UCC of all applicable jurisdictions or other applicable laws or the failure to make other filings with respect to any Medallion Loans, whether at the time of any Purchase or at any subsequent time, but in all events as may be required of the Transferor hereunder;

(v) the failure of the Transferor or any of its agents and representatives to remit to the Servicer or the Collection Account Collections of Medallion Loans remitted to the Transferor or such agent or representative;

(vi) the failure by the Transferor to be duly qualified to do business, to be in good standing or to have filed appropriate fictitious or assumed name registration documents in any jurisdiction, where such qualification may be required by applicable law; and

(vii) the commingling by the Transferor of Collections of Medallion Loans at any time with other funds.

An Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Transferor of any claim as to which it seeks indemnification. If any suit, action, claim or proceeding which might result in indemnification under this Section 8.01 is brought against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall, if a

claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Transferor hereunder, notify the Transferor in writing of the commencement thereof. The Transferor may participate in and assume the defense of any such suit, action, claim, proceeding or investigation at its expense, and no settlement thereof shall be made without the approval of the Transferor and the Indemnified Party. The approval of the Transferor and the Indemnified Party will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that (i) the Transferor shall agree that any judgment, settlement or other amounts payable as a result of such suit, action, claim, or proceeding shall be subject to indemnification by the Transferor pursuant to this Section 8.01; (ii) the Transferor must keep the Indemnified Party apprised of the progress of any such suit, action, claim or proceeding; and (iii) if the Indemnified Party reasonably believes that its failure to participate will adversely affect its interests or that there is a conflict of interest which makes it inadvisable for the Transferor’s attorney to represent such party, it shall notify the Transferor of such conclusion in writing and may, at its election, participate in such suit, action, claim or proceeding (the legal fees incurred by the Indemnified Party as a result of such participation to be reimbursed by the Transferor). Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the Transferor to the Indemnified Party within two (2) Business Days following the Indemnified Party’s demand.

The agreement contained in this Section 8.01 shall survive the collection of all Medallion Loans, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts otherwise payable hereunder.

SECTION 8.02. Retransfer of Medallion Loans. The following rights are in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights or remedies that the Transferee may have hereunder.

(a) If, with respect to any Medallion Loan, such Medallion Loan did not constitute an Eligible Medallion Loan on the date of transfer to the Transferee hereunder (such Medallion Loan being referred to as an “Ineligible Medallion Loan”), and thus, the Transferor shall have breached the representation and warranty contained in Section 4.01(a), then the Transferor shall, on the next succeeding Weekly Settlement Date, upon the Transferee’s demand, accept a retransfer of such Ineligible Medallion Loan for the retransfer price specified in subsection (b) of this Section 8.02.

(b) In the case of a retransfer by the Transferee to the Transferor of a Medallion Loan pursuant to this Section 8.02, the Transferor shall, on the Weekly Settlement Date coinciding with such retransfer, pay to the Transferee an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Medallion Loan as of such Weekly Settlement Date plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon. The proceeds of any such retransfer or purchase shall be deemed to be Collections of such Medallion Loan received by the Transferor. Any such retransfer shall be made without recourse or warranty, express or implied.
