CONVEYANCES OF TRANSFERRED ASSETS

Section 2.1 Conveyances.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Transferor hereby (i) irrevocably Conveys to the Transferee, absolutely and not as collateral security, without recourse, except as expressly provided herein, as a capital contribution to the Transferee, on the Closing Date, and the Transferee hereby accepts, acquires and receives from the Transferor on the Closing Date (the “Initial Conveyance”), and (ii) vests in the Transferee all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest in and to each Transferred Asset listed on Schedule A to this Agreement (as such schedule may be amended, supplemented, updated or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the Transaction Documents, the “Schedule of Transferred Assets”), together with all other Related Security and all proceeds of the foregoing. The Transferee hereby assumes from the Transferor and agrees to perform all obligations (then existing or thereafter arising) of the Transferor under Transferred Assets. The Transferor hereby agrees to protect and defend the Transferee’s ownership interest in the Transferred Assets against any claim asserting the continuing ownership thereof by the Transferor.

(b) In the event the Transferee agrees, from time to time after the Closing Date, to acquire additional Transferred Assets (including Related Security) from the Transferor (the date of the proposed Conveyance, a “Subsequent Conveyance Date”, and each such conveyance being herein called a “Subsequent Conveyance”), the Transferor shall provide to the Transferee a supplement to the Schedule of Transferred Assets identifying the Transferred Assets proposed to be Conveyed. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Loan Agreement, the Transferor shall Convey to the Transferee, and the Transferee shall acquire, on the applicable Subsequent Conveyance Date, all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest in and to each Transferred Asset then reported by the Transferor on the supplement to the Schedule of Transferred Assets, together with all other Related Security and all proceeds of the foregoing.

(c) It is the express intent of the Transferor and the Transferee that each Conveyance of Transferred Assets by the Transferor to the Transferee pursuant to this Agreement be construed as an absolute contribution of such Transferred Assets by the Transferor to the Transferee providing the Transferee with the full risks and benefits of ownership of such Transferred Assets as of the applicable Conveyance Date. Further, it is not the intention of the Transferor and the Transferee that any contribution be deemed a grant of a security interest in the Transferred Assets by the Transferor to the Transferee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Transferor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Conveyances hereunder shall be characterized as loans and not as contributions, then (i) this Agreement also

-4-

shall be deemed to be, and hereby is, a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC and other Applicable Law and (ii) the Conveyances by the Transferor provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be, and the Transferor hereby grants to the Transferee (and the Transferee hereby assigns to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties), a perfected, first-priority security interest in, to and under all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, such Transferred Assets, with all Related Securities and all proceeds of the foregoing. The possession by the Transferee (which shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the Loan Agreement) of notes, instruments and such other goods, money, documents, chattel paper or certificated securities shall be deemed to be “possession by or delivery to secured party” for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the UCC in force in the relevant jurisdiction (including Section 9-313(c)(1) thereof). Notifications to Persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Transferee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law (except that nothing in this sentence shall cause any Person to be deemed to be an agent of the Transferee for any purpose other than for perfection of such security interest unless, and then only to the extent, expressly appointed and authorized by the Transferee in writing). The Transferee and its assignees shall have, with respect to such Transferred Assets and other related rights, in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Transferee and its assignees and under the other Transaction Documents, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC.

(d) In connection with the Initial Conveyance, the Transferor agrees to file (or cause to be filed) on or about to the Closing Date, at its own expense, a financing statement or statements with respect to the Transferred Assets Conveyed by the Transferor hereunder from time to time meeting the requirements under the UCC or any comparable law of any and all jurisdictions as may be necessary to perfect and protect the interests of the Transferee created hereby under the UCC against all creditors of, and purchasers from, the Transferor, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of such financing statements or other evidence of such filings to the Transferee as soon as reasonably practicable after its receipt thereof.

(e) The Transferor and the Transferee shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Transferred Assets to secure a debt or other obligation, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest in favor of the Transferee under Applicable Law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Transferor represents and warrants that the Transferred Assets are being transferred with the intention of removing them from the Transferor’s estate pursuant to Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Transferee assumes all risk relating to nonpayment or failure by the Obligors to make any distributions owed by them under the Transferred Assets.

(f) The Transferor agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all instruments and documents and take all actions as may be reasonably necessary or as the Transferee may reasonably request, in order to perfect or protect the interest of the Transferee in the Transferred Assets contributed hereunder or to enable the Transferee to exercise or enforce any of its rights hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Transferor will, in order to accurately reflect the Conveyances contemplated by this Agreement, execute and file

-5-

such financing or continuation statements or amendments thereto or assignments thereof (as permitted pursuant hereto) or other documents or instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Transferee and mark its master computer records (or related sub-ledger) noting the Conveyance to the Transferee of the Transferred Assets. The Transferor hereby authorizes the Transferee to file and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law the Transferee shall be permitted to file initial financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto and assignments thereof without the Transferor’s further action; provided that the description of collateral contained in such financing statements shall be limited to only Transferred Assets. Carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement.

(g) The Conveyance by the Transferor of the Transferred Assets to the Transferee has been acknowledged and recorded by the applicable administrative agent or agent under the applicable Underlying Instruments for each of the Transferred Assets set forth on Schedule of Transferred Assets.

(h) Each of the Transferor and the Transferee agrees that prior to the time of Conveyance of any Transferred Asset hereunder, the Transferee has no rights to or claim of benefit from any Transferred Asset (or any interest therein) owned by the Transferor.

(i) The Transferred Assets acquired, transferred to and assumed by the Transferee from the Transferor shall include the Transferor’s entitlement to any surplus or responsibility for any deficiency that, in either case, arises under, out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the foreclosure upon or acceleration of any such Transferred Assets.

(j) Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, the Transferor shall have no right hereunder to reacquire any of the Transferred Assets, and the Transferee shall be entitled to dispose of any Transferred Assets in its discretion (subject to the Loan Agreement) and shall have no duty or obligation to account to the Transferor in respect thereof nor any recourse to the Transferor in connection with any such disposition; provided, however, the Transferor shall be liable to the Transferee for all representations, warranties, indemnities and covenants made by the Transferor with respect to the Transferee pursuant to the terms herein.

(k) Each of the Transferor and the Transferee acknowledges, agrees, represents and warrants that (i) there are no other agreements related to the contribution of the Transferred Assets other than this Agreement, the Loan Agreement and any related assignment agreements, (ii) this Agreement (along with any related assignment agreements) and the Loan Agreement represent the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the transactions subject of and contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) this Agreement is not an attempt to hide the true agreement between the parties, and (iv) the parties to this Agreement do not and will not depart from its terms with respect to the matters subject hereof.

Section 2.2 Indemnification.

(a) Subject always to Section 9.11, and without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under Applicable Law, the Transferor agrees to indemnify the Transferee on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors, transferees, and assigns (including each Secured Party) and all officers, directors, shareholders, controlling persons, employees and agents of any of the foregoing (each of the foregoing Persons being individually called an “Indemnified Party”), forthwith on demand, from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively called “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any Indemnified Party by reason of or arising out of (a) any acts or omissions of the Transferor in its capacity as Transferor in breach of any of its agreements or covenants under any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated thereby or (b) any breach of any representation or warranty of the Transferor contained in any Transaction Document or in any certification or written material delivered by the Transferor pursuant to any Transaction Document, excluding, however, (i) Indemnified Amounts in respect of any Transferred Asset due to an Obligor’s insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness, (ii) Indemnified Amounts payable to an Indemnified Party to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of any Indemnified Party or its agent or subcontractor, (iii) except as otherwise specifically provided herein, non-payment by any Obligor of an amount due and payable with respect to a Transferred Asset, (iv) any Excluded Taxes and Taxes indemnifiable under the Loan Agreement and (v) Indemnified Amounts resulting from the performance or non-performance of the Transferred Assets.

(b) Any amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 2.2 shall be paid by the Transferor to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) Business Days following receipt by the Transferor of such Person’s written demand therefor.

(c) If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 2.2 is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless, then the Transferor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Party, on the one hand, and the Transferor, on the other hand, but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Party as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that the Transferor shall not be required to contribute in respect of any Indemnified Amounts excluded in Section 2.2(a).

(d) Indemnification under this Section 2.2 shall be in an amount necessary to make the Indemnified Party whole after taking into account any Tax consequences to the Indemnified Party of the receipt of the indemnity provided hereunder, including the effect of such Tax or refund on the amount of Tax measured by net income or profits that is or was payable by the Indemnified Party.

(e) The Transferor acknowledges that, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Transferee will assign its rights of indemnity granted hereunder to the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties. Upon such assignment, (i) the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall have all rights of the Transferee hereunder and may in turn assign such rights as permitted by the Loan Agreement, and (ii) the obligations of the Transferor under this Section 2.2 shall inure to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The Transferor agrees that, upon such assignment, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, or the assignee of any such Person, as applicable, may enforce directly, without joinder of the Transferee, the indemnities set forth in this Section 2.2.

(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Transferor is a statutory trust, duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and is duly qualified to do business, and is in good standing, in every jurisdiction in which the nature of its business and the performance of its obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party requires it to be so qualified, except, in the case of foreign qualifications, where failure to be in good standing or obtain such licenses or approvals would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

-9-

(i) Taxes.

No Tax lien (other than a Permitted Lien) or adverse claim has been filed with respect to the income or property of the Transferor, and no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Tax, assessment or other governmental charge. Any Taxes, fees and other governmental charges due and payable by the Transferee in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby have been paid or shall have been paid if and when due.

(j) Place of Business. The principal place of business of the Transferor, and the offices where the Transferor keeps all its records, are located at its address specified in Section 9.3, or such other locations notified to the Transferee in accordance with this Agreement in jurisdictions where all action required by the terms of this Agreement has been taken and completed. There are currently no, and during the past four months (or such shorter time as the Transferor has been in existence) there have not been, any other locations where the Transferor is located (as that term is used in the UCC of the jurisdiction where such principal place of business is located).

(k) Ownership; Security Interest. In the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Conveyances hereunder shall be characterized as loans and not as contributions, then this Agreement creates a valid and continuing Lien on the Transferred Assets in favor of the Transferee and the Collateral Agent, as assignee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which security interest is validly perfected under Article 9 of the UCC (to the extent such security interest may be perfected under such article), and is enforceable as such against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferee; the Transferred Assets are comprised of “instruments,” “security entitlements,” “general intangibles,” “certificated securities,” “uncertificated securities,” “securities accounts,” “investment property,” “accounts,” “cash,” “deposit accounts” and “proceeds” and such other categories of collateral under the applicable UCC as to which the Transferor has complied with its obligations as set forth herein; the Transferor has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of any Transferred Asset to the Conveyance and granting of a security interest in the Transferred Assets hereunder to the Transferee and the Collateral Agent, as assignee on behalf of the Secured Parties; the Transferor has taken all necessary steps to file or authorize the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under Applicable Law in order to perfect the security interest in that portion of the Transferred Assets in which a security interest may be perfected by filing pursuant to Article 9 of the UCC as in effect in the applicable jurisdiction; all original executed copies of each underlying promissory note constituting or evidencing any Transferred Asset have been or, subject to the delivery requirements contained in the Loan Agreement, will be delivered to the Transferee or its designee; none of the underlying promissory notes that constitute or evidence any Transferred Assets has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Transferee or the Collateral Agent, as assignee on behalf of the Secured Parties; with respect to a Transferred Asset that constitutes a Certificated Security, such Certificated Security has been delivered to the Transferee or its designee and, if in registered form, has been specially Indorsed (within the meaning of the

-10-

UCC) to the Collateral Agent or in blank by an effective Indorsement or has been registered in the name of the Collateral Agent upon original issue or registration of transfer by the Transferor of such Certificated Security; and in the case of an uncertificated security, by (A) causing the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of such uncertificated security and (B) causing such registration to remain effective.

(l) Fair Consideration; No Avoidance for Transferred Asset Payments. With respect to each Transferred Asset transferred hereunder, the Transferor contributed such Transferred Asset to the Transferee in exchange for payment, made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, in an amount which constitutes fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value. Each such Conveyance referred to in the preceding sentence shall not have been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Transferor to the Transferee and, accordingly, no such Conveyance is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and the rules and regulations thereunder. In addition, no such Conveyance shall have been made with the intent to hinder or delay payment to or defraud any creditor of the Transferor.

(m) Eligibility of Transferred Assets. Each Transferred Asset Conveyed hereunder is, at the time of such Conveyance, an Eligible Loan Asset. As of each Conveyance Date, each supplement to the Schedule of Transferred Assets is an accurate and complete listing of all the Transferred Assets and other Transferred Assets hereunder as of such Conveyance Date.

(n) Adequate Capitalization; No Insolvency. The Transferor is adequately capitalized and will not become insolvent after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. The Transferor is adequately capitalized for its business as proposed to be conducted in the foreseeable future and does not expect the commencement of any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator or similar official in respect of its assets. The Transferor executed and delivered each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party for fair consideration and without the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors or any other Person.

(o) True Contribution. Each Transferred Asset Conveyed hereunder shall have been Conveyed by the Transferor to the Transferee in a “true contribution.”

(p) Good Title to Conveyed Transferred Assets.

i. In respect of each Initial Conveyance, the Transferor, as of the date of such Initial Conveyance, has not assigned, pledged or otherwise conveyed or encumbered any interest in each Transferred Asset to any other person, which assignment, pledge, conveyance or encumbrance remains effective as of the applicable Conveyance Date. Immediately prior to the transfer of any of the Transferred Asset by the Transferee from the Transferor, such Transferred Asset is free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or impediment to transfer created by Transferor (including any adverse claim), and the Transferor is the sole record and beneficial owner of and has good and marketable title to and the right to transfer such Transferred Asset to the Transferee and, upon the Conveyance of such Transferred Asset to the Transferee, the Transferee shall be the sole owner of such Transferred Asset free of any adverse claim created by the Transferor.

-11-

ii. In respect of each Subsequent Conveyance, the Transferor has not assigned, pledged or otherwise conveyed or encumbered any interest in the Transferred Assets being Conveyed to any other person, which assignment, pledge, conveyance or encumbrance remains effective as of the applicable Conveyance Date. Immediately prior to the Conveyance of any of the Transferred Asset by the Transferee from the Transferor, such Transferred Asset is free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or impediment to transfer created by Transferor (including any adverse claim), and the Transferor is the sole record and beneficial owner of and has good and marketable title to and the right to transfer such Transferred Asset to the Transferee and, upon the Conveyance of such Transferred Asset to the Transferee, the Transferee shall be the sole owner of such Transferred Asset free of any adverse claim created by the Transferor.

(q) True and Complete Information. All written information, exhibits, financial statements, documents, books, records or reports furnished by or on behalf of the Transferor to the Transferee or the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement are, as of their respective date, accurate, true and correct in all material respects and no such document or certificate omits to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in all material respects; provided that solely with respect to written or electronic information furnished by the Transferor or on its behalf which was provided to the Transferor from an Obligor (or the underlying administrative agent or underwriter) with respect to a Transferred Asset (or is derived therefrom), such information need only be accurate, true and correct in all material respects to the knowledge of the Transferor.

(r) Transferred Assets. The information contained in Schedule A is true, correct and complete in all material respects as of each such Conveyance Date.

(s) Payment in Full. On the applicable Conveyance Date for each Transferred Asset, the Transferor had no knowledge of any fact which leads it to expect that any payments on the applicable Transferred Asset will not be paid in full when due or to expect any other Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Power and Authority; Due Authorization; Execution and Delivery. The Transferee has the power, authority and legal right to make, deliver and perform this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party and all of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(c) All Consents Required. No consent of any other party and no consent, license, approval or authorization of, or registration or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Transferee of this Agreement or any Transaction Document to which it is a party or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any such Transaction Document or the Loan Assets

-14-

or the transfer of an ownership interest or security interest in such Loan Assets, other than, in each case (x) such as have been met or obtained and are in full force and effect and (y) any consents, approvals, licenses, authorizations, registrations or declarations which the failure to obtain would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Binding Obligation. This Agreement and each of the Transaction Documents to which the Transferee is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Transferee, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except as the enforceability hereof and thereof may be limited by bankruptcy laws and by general principles of equity (whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(e) No Violation. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and all other agreements and instruments executed and delivered or to be executed and delivered pursuant hereto or thereto in connection with the grant of the Portfolio Assets will not (i) create any Lien on the Portfolio Assets other than Permitted Liens or (ii) violate any Applicable Law or (iii) violate the organizational documents of the Transferee or any material contract or other agreement to which the Transferee is a party or by which the Transferee or any property or assets of the Transferee may be bound.

(f) Value Given. The Transferee has given fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value to the Transferor in exchange for the transfer of the Loan Assets (or any number of them) from the Transferor pursuant to this Agreement. No such transfer has been made for or on account of an antecedent debt owed by the Transferee to the Transferor and no such transfer is or may be voidable or subject to avoidance under any section of the Bankruptcy Code.

(g) No Proceedings.

(h) Contribution Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including any assignment or novation instruments and other documents evidencing the assignment or novation of each Loan Asset in accordance with the related Underlying Instrument) contemplated herein are the only agreements or arrangements pursuant to which the Transferee acquires the Transferred Assets Conveyed to it by the Transferor.

(l) Accounting. Other than for consolidated accounting purposes (and, if required, Tax purposes), the Transferor will not account for or treat the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than as a sale or contribution of the Transferred Assets by the Transferor to the Transferee.
