(a)                                 On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Seller agrees to Convey to the Purchaser, without recourse (except to the extent specifically provided herein) on the Effective Date, and the Purchaser agrees to accept such Conveyance from the Seller on the Effective Date (the “Initial Conveyance”), all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to each Portfolio Investment listed on Schedule A to this Agreement (as such schedule may be amended, supplemented, updated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Schedule of Portfolio Investments”) (the Schedule of Portfolio Investments, as amended, supplemented, updated or otherwise modified in connection with an Approval Request, Subsequent Conveyance (as defined below), or otherwise, shall become part of the Schedule of Portfolio Investments), together with all other Related Security and all proceeds of the foregoing.

(b)                                 In the event the Purchaser agrees, from time to time after the Effective Date, to acquire additional Portfolio Investments (including Related Security) from the Seller, the Purchaser shall deliver an Approval Request to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Loan Agreement and designating the date of the proposed Conveyance (a “Subsequent

4

Conveyance Date”) and including a Transfer Supplement which shall include a Schedule of Portfolio Investments identifying the Transferred Assets proposed to be Conveyed. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Loan Documents, the Seller shall Convey to the Purchaser, without recourse (except to the extent specifically provided herein) and the Purchaser shall accept such Conveyance, on the applicable Subsequent Conveyance Date (each such Conveyance being herein called a “Subsequent Conveyance”), all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to each Portfolio Investment then reported by the Seller on the Schedule of Portfolio Investments attached to the related Approval Request together with all other Related Security and all proceeds of the foregoing.

(c)                                  It is the express intent of the Seller and the Purchaser that each Conveyance of Transferred Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement be construed as an absolute sale and/or contribution of such Transferred Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser. Further, it is not the intention of the Seller and the Purchaser that any Conveyance be deemed a grant of a security interest in the Transferred Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Conveyances hereunder shall be characterized as loans and not as sales and/or contributions, then (i) this Agreement also 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 Seller provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be, and the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser, a security interest in, to and under all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, such Transferred Assets and all proceeds of the foregoing. The Purchaser 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 Purchaser and its assignees and under the other Loan Documents, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC.

The Seller and the Purchaser 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 Purchaser under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Seller represents and warrants that the Transferred Assets are being transferred with the intention of removing them from the Seller’s estate pursuant to Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code.  The Purchaser assumes all risk relating to nonpayment or failure by the obligors to make any distributions owed by them under the Transferred Assets.  Except with respect to breach of representations, warranties and covenants expressly stated in this Agreement, the Seller assigns each Transferred Asset “as is,” and makes no covenants, representations or warranties regarding the Transferred Assets.

(d)                                 In connection with the Initial Conveyance, the Seller agrees to file (or cause to be filed) on or prior to the Effective Date, at its own expense, a financing statement or statements with respect to the Transferred Assets Conveyed by the Seller hereunder from time to time meeting the requirements of applicable state law in the jurisdiction of the Seller’s organization to perfect and protect the interests of the Purchaser created hereby under the UCC against all creditors of, and purchasers from, the Seller, and to deliver a file-stamped copy of

5

such financing statements or other evidence of such filings to the Purchaser as soon as reasonably practicable after its receipt thereof.

(e)                                  The Seller 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 Purchaser may reasonably request, in order to perfect or protect the interest of the Purchaser in the Transferred Assets Conveyed hereunder or to enable the Purchaser to exercise or enforce any of its rights hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller will, in order to accurately reflect the Conveyances contemplated by this Agreement, execute and file 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 Purchaser and ▇▇▇▇ its master computer records (or related sub-ledger) noting the Conveyance by the Purchaser of the Transferred Assets and the Lien of the Collateral Agent (and, if applicable, the Collateral Trustee (as defined in the Loan Agreement) pursuant to the Loan Documents. The Seller hereby authorizes the Purchaser to file and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law the Purchaser shall be permitted to file initial financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto and assignments thereof without the Seller’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.

(f)                                   Each of the Seller and the Purchaser agree that prior to the time of Conveyance of any Portfolio Investment hereunder, the Purchaser has no rights to or claim of benefit from any Portfolio Investment (or any interest therein) owned by the Seller.

(g)                                  The Transferred Assets acquired, transferred to and assumed by the Purchaser from the Seller shall include the Seller’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 (other than Excluded Amounts).

Section 2.2.                                 Indemnification. Without limiting any other rights which any such Person may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Seller agrees to indemnify on a net after-tax basis (including, for example, taking into account the deductibility of an applicable underlying damage, loss, liability or related cost and expense) the Purchaser and its successors, transferees, and assigns (including each Secured Party) and all trustees, 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 actual and direct damages, losses, claims, liabilities and related reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and disbursements for external counsel (all of the foregoing being collectively called “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of any breach by the Seller of any of its obligations hereunder or arising as a result of the failure of any representation or warranty of the Seller herein to be true and correct on the date such representation or warranty was made, excluding, however, (a) Indemnified Amounts in respect of any Transferred Asset due to such obligor’s creditworthiness, (b) 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, willful misconduct, fraud or reckless disregard on the part of any Indemnified Party or its agent or subcontractor, (c) except as otherwise specifically provided herein, non-payment by any obligor of an amount due and payable with respect to a Transferred Asset, (d) any Excluded Taxes and any Taxes indemnifiable under the Loan Agreement,  (e) Indemnified Amounts resulting from the performance or non-performance of the Portfolio Investments and (f) any punitive, indirect, consequential, special damages, lost profits or other similar damages.

Section 2.3.                                 Assignments. The Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree that, solely for administrative convenience, any transfer document or assignment agreement required to be executed and delivered in connection with the transfer of a Transferred Asset in accordance with the terms of the related underlying instruments may reflect that (i) the Seller (or any Affiliate or third party from whom the Seller or the applicable Affiliate may purchase Transferred Asset) is assigning such Transferred Asset directly to the Purchaser or (ii) the Purchaser is acquiring such Transferred Asset at the closing of such Transferred Asset.

Section 2.4.                                 Delivery of Underlying Instruments.  With respect to each Portfolio Investment Conveyed hereunder as part of the Transferred Assets, within the time period required for delivery thereof under the Loan Agreement, the Seller will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser or will deliver, on behalf of the Purchaser, or cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent each underlying instrument required to be delivered for such Portfolio Investment.

(t)                                    Set—Off, etc. At the time of Conveyance of a Transferred Asset and to the knowledge of the Seller after reasonable inquiry, such Transferred Asset has not been compromised, adjusted, extended, satisfied, subordinated, rescinded, set—off or modified by the Seller or by the obligor thereof, and at such time such Transferred Asset is not subject to compromise, adjustment, extension, satisfaction, subordination, rescission, set—off, counterclaim, defense, abatement, suspension, deferment, deduction, reduction, termination or modification, whether arising out of transactions concerning such Transferred Asset or otherwise, by the Seller or by the obligor with respect thereto, except, in each case, for amendments, extensions and modifications, if any, to such Transferred Asset otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents.

(u)                                 No Fraud. Each Portfolio Investment Conveyed hereunder was originated without any fraud or material misrepresentation by the Seller or, to the Seller’s knowledge, on the part of the related obligor.

(v)                                 Good Title to Transferred Assets.  The Seller has not assigned, pledged, or otherwise conveyed or encumbered any interest in the Transferred Assets to any other person, which assignment, pledge, conveyance or encumbrance remains effective as of the applicable Purchase Date.  Immediately prior to the purchase of any of the Transferred Assets by the Purchaser from the Seller, such Transferred Assets are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance or impediment to transfer created by Seller (including any “adverse claim” as defined in Section 8-102(a)(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code), and the Seller is the sole record and beneficial owner of and has good and marketable title to and the right to sell and transfer such Transferred Assets to the Purchaser and, upon transfer of such Transferred Asset to the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall be the sole owner of such Transferred Assets free of any adverse claim created by the Seller.

(w)                               No Default.  Except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Agreement, no default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Transferred Asset as of the applicable Purchase Date.

Section 4.2.                                 Reaffirmation of Representations and Warranties by the Seller; Notice of Breach. On the Effective Date and on each Purchase Date, the Seller, by accepting the proceeds of such Conveyance, shall be deemed to have certified that all representations and warranties

12

described in Section 4.1 are true and correct (in the case of clauses (a), (b), (c), (e), (g), (h), (i), (j) and (o), in all material respects) on and as of such day as though made on and as of such day (or, if such representation or warranty is limited to a specific date, such specific date). The representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.1 shall survive (i) the Conveyance of the Transferred Assets to the Purchaser, (ii) the termination of the rights and obligations of the Purchaser and the Seller under this Agreement and (iii) the termination of the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under the Loan Agreement. Upon discovery by an officer of the Purchaser or the Seller of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties in any material respect, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other and to the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE V.

COVENANTS OF THE SELLER

Section 5.1.                                 Covenants of the Seller. The Seller hereby covenants and agrees with the Purchaser that, from the date hereof, and until all amounts owed by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement have been paid in full (other than as expressly survive the termination of this Agreement), unless the Purchaser otherwise consents in writing:

(a)                                 Compliance with Agreements and Applicable Laws. The Seller shall perform each of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and comply with all Applicable Laws, including those applicable to the Transferred Portfolio Investments and all proceeds thereof, except to the extent that the failure to so comply would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on (i) its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (ii) its assets, operations, properties, financial condition, or business or (iii) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

(b)                                 Maintenance of Existence and Conduct of Business. The Seller shall: (i) do or cause to be done all things necessary to (A) preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence as a corporation and maintain its rights and franchises in its jurisdiction of formation and (B) qualify and remain qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing and preserve its rights and franchises in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify and remain qualified and preserve its rights and franchises would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its assets, operations, properties, financial condition, or business; (ii) continue to conduct its business substantially as now conducted or as otherwise permitted hereunder and under its organizational documents; and (iii) at all times maintain, preserve and protect all of its licenses, permits, charters and registrations in each case except where the failure to maintain such liens, permits, charters and registrations would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its assets, operations, properties, financial condition, or business.

(c)                                  Cash Management Systems: Deposit of Collections. The Seller shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, all Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds received by the Seller to the appropriate Account by the close of business on the Business Day following the date such amounts are received.

(d)                                 Books and Records. The Seller shall keep proper books of record and account in which full and correct entries shall be made of all transactions with the Purchaser and the assets and business of the Seller related to its obligations under this Agreement or any Transferred Assets or assets proposed to be transferred in accordance with GAAP, maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures necessary to fulfill its obligations hereunder; and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other information necessary or reasonably advisable and relating to the Transferred Assets prior to their Conveyance hereunder for the collection of all Transferred Assets.

(e)                                  Accounting of Purchases. Other than for tax and accounting purposes, the Seller 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 Seller to the Purchaser; provided that, solely for federal income tax reporting purposes, the Purchaser is treated as a “disregarded entity” and, therefore, the Conveyance of Transferred Assets by the Seller to the Purchaser hereunder will not be recognized.

(f)                                   Taxes. The Seller will file on a timely basis all federal and other material Tax returns required to be filed and will pay all federal and other material Taxes due and payable by it (other than any amount the validity of which is contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP are provided on the books of the Seller).

(g)                                  ERISA. The Seller shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Affiliates to, cause or permit to occur an event that results in the imposition of a Lien on its interest, if any, in any Transferred Asset under Section 412 of the IRC or Section 303(K) or 4068 of ERISA.

(h)                                 Liens. The Seller shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on or with respect to any of its rights under any of the Loan Documents (other than the Lien covering this Agreement and existing on the Effective Date, which has been disclosed to the Administrative Agent) or on or with respect to any of its rights in the Transferred Assets, in each case other than Permitted Liens. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.1(h) shall not apply to any property retained by the Seller and not Conveyed or purported to be Conveyed hereunder.

(i)                                     Change of Name, Etc. The Seller shall not change its name, or name under which it does business, in any manner that would make any financing statement or continuation statement filed by the Seller or the Purchaser pursuant hereto (or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Seller or Purchaser) in accordance with Section 2.1(c) seriously misleading or change its jurisdiction of organization, unless the Seller shall have given the Purchaser at least 10 days prior written notice thereof, and shall promptly file appropriate amendments to all previously filed financing statements and continuation statements.

(j)                                    Sale Characterization. The Seller shall not make statements or disclosures, or treat the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than for tax or accounting purposes) in any manner other than as a true sale, contribution or absolute assignment of the title to and sole record and beneficial ownership interest of the Transferred Portfolio Investments Conveyed or purported to be Conveyed hereunder; provided that the Seller may consolidate the

14

Purchaser and/or its properties and other assets for accounting purposes in accordance with GAAP.

(k)                                 Commingling. The Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, deposit or permit the deposit of any funds that do not constitute Collections or other proceeds of any Portfolio Investments into the Collection Account or permit its assets to be commingled with those of any subsidiary of the Seller or such Affiliate.

The Seller shall not take any action contrary to the “Assumptions and Facts” section in the opinions of Dechert LLP, delivered in connection with the Loan Agreement, relating to certain nonconsolidation and true sale matters.

(m)                             Obligations with Respect to Transferred Assets.  The Seller hereby retains and undertakes to perform, pay or discharge in accordance with the terms and conditions under such Portfolio Investments all of the obligations of the holder of the Transferred Asset to the extent such obligations arose or accrued prior to the effectiveness of such transfer.  Except as may otherwise have been agreed to between the parties with respect to any particular Transferred Asset, (i) the Seller hereby represents, warrants and agrees that any amounts received by it with respect to any Transferred Asset and which accrue from and after the effectiveness of the transfer of such Transferred Asset shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be promptly remitted to the Purchaser upon receipt thereof, and (ii) the Purchaser hereby represents, warrants and agrees that any amounts received by it with respect to a Transferred Asset which accrue with respect to the period prior to the effectiveness of such transfer of such Transferred Asset shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be promptly remitted to the Seller upon receipt thereof.

(n)                                 Repurchase; Substitution; Repurchase Limits.

(i)                                     Each party to this Agreement shall give notice to the other party promptly, in writing, upon the discovery of any breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties with respect to any Transferred Asset made pursuant to Section 4.1(k), Section 4.1(l), Section 4.1(m), Section 4.1(p), Section 4.1(t), Section 4.1(u), Section 4.1(v) or Section 4.1(w) hereof on the date of any Conveyance or Subsequent Conveyance Date, as applicable, which has a material adverse effect on the interest of the Purchaser in such Transferred Portfolio Investment (each such Transferred Portfolio Investment, a “Warranty Portfolio Investment”).  In the event of such a material breach, the Seller shall, no later than 30 days after knowledge of such breach on the part of Seller, (x) repurchase any affected Transferred Portfolio Investment from the Purchaser at an amount equal to (i) the purchase price paid by the Purchaser for such Transferred Portfolio Investment (excluding purchased accrued interest and original issue discount) less all payments of principal received in connection with such Transferred Portfolio Investment since the applicable Purchase Date and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Repurchase Amount”) or (y) substitute for such affected Transferred Portfolio Investment one or more Portfolio Investments with a Market Value at least equal to the Repurchase Amount of the Transferred Portfolio Investment being replaced; provided that, no such repayment or substitution shall be required to be made if such breach of Seller’s representations and warranties relating to such Transferred Portfolio Investment shall have been cured before the expiration of such 30 day period.

15

(ii)                                  The Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Purchaser, in each case, in its sole discretion, to substitute one or more Portfolio Investments (a “Substitute Portfolio Investment”) for a Portfolio Investment (each such act, a “Substitution”), in each case pursuant to and in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

(iii)                               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate outstanding balance of Portfolio Investments in the Portfolio subject to a Substitution, together with the aggregate outstanding balance of Portfolio Investments sold to the Parent or its Affiliates by the Company (in each case other than in connection with the sale or Substitution of a Warranty Portfolio Investment), exceed 20% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance measured as of the date of such sale or Substitution; provided further that, in no event shall the aggregate outstanding balance of Portfolio Investments in the Portfolio that are in default and subject to a Substitution, together with the aggregate outstanding balance of Portfolio Investments that are in default and sold to the Parent or its Affiliates by the Company (in each case other than in connection with the sale or Substitution of a Warranty Portfolio Investment), exceed 10% of the Net Purchased Loan Balance measured as of the date of such sale or Substitution.
