Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 12, 2023, Trinity Rail Leasing 2023 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TRL-2023”), and a limited purpose, wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of Trinity Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), owned by the Company through the Company’s direct, wholly-owned subsidiary Trinity Industries Leasing Company (“TILC”), entered into a Term Loan Agreement dated as of June 12, 2023 (the “Loan Agreement”) among the lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, not in its individual capacity, but solely in its capacity as Collateral Agent and Depositary. On the same date, TRL-2023 completed the funding of a $340,000,000 term loan under the Loan Agreement. The proceeds of the loan made pursuant to the Loan Agreement were used solely to fund the acquisition of a portfolio of certain railcars and related operating leases thereon (the “Railcar Portfolio”) and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith. Amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement are secured by the Railcar Portfolio.
TRL-2023 purchased the Railcar Portfolio directly from TILC and from TILC’s affiliate, Trinity Rail Leasing Warehouse Trust (“TRLWT”). Net proceeds received from the sale of the Railcar Portfolio will be used to repay approximately $300.1 million of borrowings under TRLWT’s secured warehouse credit facility and for general corporate purposes. TILC has entered into certain agreements relating to the transfer of the Railcar Portfolio to TRL-2023 and the management and servicing of TRL-2023's assets.
Key terms of the Loan Agreement include, without limitation:
•the principal amount is $340,000,000; the Loan Agreement contains an accordion feature providing for the potential funding of an additional $170,000,000 if certain approvals and conditions are met;
•the maturity date is June 12, 2028; and
•an applicable interest rate of, for any day during any interest period, the sum of (i) Daily Simple SOFR for such day, plus (ii) a SOFR Adjustment of 0.10% per annum, plus (iii) an Applicable Facility Margin of 1.80% per annum.
Obligations under the Loan Agreement are solely the obligations of TRL-2023 and may be declared due and payable upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default.
The description of the Loan Agreement set forth above is necessarily limited and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

SECTION 2.09    [Intentionally Omitted].
SECTION 2.10    Pro-rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on any Loan, each payment of fees and each conversion or continuation of any Loan, shall be allocated pro-rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of such Lenders; provided that, in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.10 is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the Corporate Base Rate plus two percent per annum.
SECTION 2.11 Sharing of Payments. The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, if any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loans or any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro-rata share of such payment as provided for in this Agreement, such Lender shall promptly pay in cash or purchase first, from the other Lenders a participation in the Loans and other obligations in such amounts received by any such Lender, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all the Lenders share such payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Agreement.
45

[Term Loan Agreement]
The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of such payment shall, by payment in cash or a repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loans or other obligation in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 2.11 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this Section 2.11 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” when used in this Section 2.11 means a Lender acting in its capacity as “Lender”, and not in its capacity as Derivatives Creditor nor in any other capacity.
SECTION 2.12    Payments, Computations, Proceeds of Collateral, Etc.
(a)    Unless otherwise expressly provided in a Loan Document, all payments by the Borrower to the Protected Parties pursuant to each Loan Document shall be made by the Borrower (or by its designee) to the Depositary for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to receive such payment or, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, directly to such Protected Parties. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction (except for Taxes which are expressly addressed in Section 3.01) or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the date due in Dollars in same day or immediately available funds to such account or accounts (if payment is to be made directly to the Protected Parties) as the Depositary shall specify from time to time by notice to the Borrower. Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Depositary for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to such payment on the next succeeding Business Day. In the event that a payment is made to the Depositary for the pro rata account of the Protected Parties entitled to such payment, the Depositary shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of the same and remit in same day funds to each Protected Party its share, if any, of such payments received by the Depositary for the account of such Protected Party as specified in a written direction from the Administrative Agent. Whenever any payment is to be made hereunder or under any Loan, or whenever the last day of any Interest Period would otherwise occur on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made, and the last day of such Interest Period shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day and interest at the Applicable Rate shall accrue on such amount from the original due date to such next Business Day; provided, that if such extension would cause the last day of such Interest Period to occur in a new calendar month, the last day of such Interest Period shall occur on the next preceding Business Day.
(b) Distributions by the Depositary. Each distribution by the Depositary to the Protected Parties shall be made in accordance with Section 2.07. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made a payment in full to any such Protected Party pursuant to clause (a) above but, notwithstanding the foregoing, such Protected Party receives full payment with respect to the amount then due to such Protected Party, such Protected Party shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay such excess amount to the Depositary forthwith together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Protected Party until the date such Protected Party repays such amount to the Depositary, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Business Days of such period and at the Applicable Alternate Rate thereafter until the date such Protected Party repays such amount to the Depositary, for distribution by the Depositary as directed in writing by the Administrative Agent.

Each such Railcar and each such Lease, as a condition to the making of any New Term Loan, shall be added to the Portfolio and become subject to the Lien of the Collateral Documents; (iv) the Borrower shall provide to the Lenders and the New Term Loan Lenders, prior to the Increased Amount Date, a complete Funding Package and Railcar Portfolio Data Set for each New Term Loan Railcar, and the Independent Appraisal included within such Funding Package shall be issued and dated within 90 days prior to the Increased Amount Date; (v) the amount borrowed pursuant to the New Term Loans shall not, on the Increased Amount Date, exceed the New Term Loan Advance Rate; (vi) both before and after giving effect to the making of any New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied, mutatis mutandis, with respect to the New Term Loans and the New Term Loan Railcars; (vii) the New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower, the New Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each New Term Loan Lender shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3.01(d); and (viii) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be paid any fees in favor of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any New Term Loan Lender or any other Creditor in connection with the New Term Loan Commitment.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
SECTION 3.01 Taxes. (a) Payments Net of Certain Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Protected Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
48

[Term Loan Agreement]
(b)    Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording or filing Taxes or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution, performance, enforcement, registration or delivery of, from the receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”) except any Other Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than Other Taxes imposed (i) with respect to an assignment made pursuant to Section 2.08 or Section 3.01(h) or (ii) solely by reason of a Protected Party having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to or enforced any Loan Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Loan or Loan Document).
(c)    Additional Taxes. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Protected Party for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes imposed on any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document and for Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.01), in each case payable or paid by such Protected Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Protected Party and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, within 10 days after receipt of documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing the amount and nature of such payment, which documentation shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)    Tax Forms and Certificates.
(i)    Each Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages thereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Depositary, or as required by law on or prior to the expiration of the form or certificate most recently provided, provide the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Depositary with true, complete and correct and executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.
49

[Term Loan Agreement]
(ii) Each Lender that is not a U.S. Lender (each, a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages thereof and, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Depositary, or as required by law on or prior to the expiration of the form or certificate most recently provided, provide the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Depositary with true, complete and correct and executed copies of (a) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which provides an exemption from or reduction in the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest, (b) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (c) the form referenced in clause (a) (but not claiming treaty benefits with respect to payments of interest), accompanied by a certificate to claim the portfolio interest exemption under Section 881(c) of the Code to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, (d) to the extent such Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY accompanied by applicable documents from each beneficial owner certifying that such Non-U.S. Lender and each beneficial owner is entitled to a complete exemption from tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (e) to the extent in the Lender’s reasonable judgment the completion, execution or submission would neither subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense nor materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender, any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or, as applicable, the Administrative Agent or the Depositary, to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Depositary in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(iii)    The Administrative Agent, on its own behalf, shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of the initial Administrative Agent, and, unless legally unentitled to do so by reason of a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring prior to replacement, on or prior to the date on which a replacement Administrative Agent may become Administrative Agent hereunder, and from time to time thereafter as requested by the Borrower or the Depositary, or as required by law on or prior to the expiration of the form or certificate most recently provided, provide the Borrower and the Depositary the applicable forms described in clause (i) or (ii) above certifying that such Administrative Agent is entitled to a complete exemption from tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as to which it is the beneficial owner.
(iv)    Additionally, if a Lender or Protected Party sells, assigns or transfers any participation in a Loan to another Person, such Lender or Protected Party (including any transferee or successor Lender or Protected Party) shall provide any new forms required above as a result of such sale or transfer.
(e)    [Intentionally Omitted].
(f)    [Intentionally Omitted].
(g)    FATCA.
(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, the Depositary and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Depositary or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Depositary or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower, the Depositary and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
50

[Term Loan Agreement]
(ii)    The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower and the Depositary at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Depositary as may be necessary for it to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Administrative Agent has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
(h)    Mitigation. If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Protected Party pursuant to this Section 3.01, then such Protected Party will agree to use reasonable efforts, at the expense of the Borrower, to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the judgment of such Protected Party, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(i)    Tax Receipts. As soon as reasonably practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment (to the extent one is so provided or can readily be obtained from the relevant Governmental Authority), a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(j)    Refunds. If a Protected Party determines that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes which in the Protected Party’s sole discretion exercised in good faith is allocable to amounts with respect to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower hereunder or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay over the amount of such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes), to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional payments paid, by the Borrower with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower, upon the request of such Protected Party, shall repay such Protected Party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (j) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Protected Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (j), in no event will the Protected Party be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (j) the payment of which would place a Protected Party in a less favorable after-tax position than the Protected Party would have been in if the Tax subject to the indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payment or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Protected Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other person.
(k)    Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the parties contained in subsections (a) through (j) above shall survive the repayment, satisfaction or discharge in full of principal and interest hereunder, the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any

assignment of rights by, or replacement of, a Lender and under any instrument delivered hereunder.
SECTION 3.02    [Intentionally Omitted].
SECTION 3.03    Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) If, on or after the Closing Date, a Change in Law:
(i)    shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Protected Party which is not otherwise included in the determination of Daily Simple SOFR hereunder;
(ii)    shall subject any Protected Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes, in each case as a result of a present or former connection between such Protected Party and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than connections arising from such Protected Party having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to or enforced any Loan Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Loan or Loan Document)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)    shall impose on such Protected Party any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any participation in any such Loan;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Protected Party of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Loans or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof (any such increased cost or reduction hereinafter referred to as an “Increased Cost”), then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from such Protected Party, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance herewith, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay such Protected Party, in accordance with Section 2.07(c), any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Protected Party for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.
(b)    If any Protected Party shall have determined that a Change in Law regarding capital adequacy, or compliance by such Protected Party, or its parent corporation, with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Protected Party’s (or parent corporation’s) capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Protected Party, or its parent corporation, could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Protected Party’s (or parent corporation’s) policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon notice from such Protected Party to the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Protected Party in accordance with Section 2.07(c), such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Protected Party for such reduction. Each determination by any such Protected Party of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.
52

[Term Loan Agreement]
(c)    A certificate of each Protected Party setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Protected Party or its holding company as specified in subsection (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay each Protected Party the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it on the next succeeding Settlement Date in accordance with Section 2.07(c).
(d)    Promptly after any Protected Party becomes aware of any circumstance that will, in its sole judgment, result in a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section, such Protected Party shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure on the part of any Protected Party so to notify the Borrower or to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Protected Party’s right to demand compensation with respect to such period or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Protected Party regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.
SECTION 3.04    [Intentionally Omitted].
SECTION 3.05    Depositary Rate Protections. The Depositary shall have no obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any Benchmark, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event, or other Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any alternative reference rate or Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or whether or what Conforming Changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with the foregoing. The Depositary shall not be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Agreement as a result of the unavailability of any Benchmark or the absence of a designated replacement Benchmark, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party, including without limitation, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of any Loan Document and reasonably required for the performance of its duties.
SECTION 3.06    Changed Circumstances.
(a) Circumstances Affecting Benchmark Availability. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan, the continuance or maintenance of outstanding SOFR Loans or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Daily Simple SOFR pursuant to the definition thereof or (ii) one or more Lenders whose Credit Exposure constitutes more than sixty-six and two thirds percent (66 ⅔%) of the Credit Exposure of all Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Daily Simple SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans and, in the case of clause (ii), such Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Derivatives Creditors. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make, continue or maintain SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a SOFR Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Loans bearing interest at the Applicable Alternate Rate in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have immediately been converted into Loans bearing interest at the Applicable Alternate Rate. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.
53

[Term Loan Agreement]
(b)    Laws Affecting SOFR Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any SOFR Loan, or to determine or charge interest based upon SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower, the other Lenders and the Derivatives Creditors (an “Illegality Notice”). Thereafter, until each affected Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, any obligation of the Lenders to make, continue or maintain SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to borrow a SOFR Loan, convert any Loan to a SOFR Loan or continue any Loan as a SOFR Loan, shall be suspended. Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) convert all SOFR Loans to Loans bearing interest at the Applicable Alternate Rate, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.
(c)    Benchmark Replacement Setting.
(i)    Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders, the Borrower and the Derivatives Creditors so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 3.06(c)(i)(A) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.
(ii)    Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
54

[Term Loan Agreement]
(iii)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, the Depositary, the Lenders and the Derivatives Creditors of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 3.06(c)(iv) and of the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.06(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.06(c).
(iv)    Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(v)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (A) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Loans bearing interest at the Applicable Alternate Rate and (B) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have immediately been converted to Loans bearing interest at the Applicable Alternate Rate.

If the Borrower is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the Borrower will make (or cause to be made) the election under Section 6221(b) of the Code for determinations of adjustments at the partnership level and take any other action necessary or appropriate for the election.  If that election is not available, the Borrower will make (or cause to be made) the election under Section 6226(a) of the Code for the alternative to payment of imputed underpayment by a partnership and take any other action necessary or appropriate for the election.

(c)    The Borrower shall not operate any Portfolio Railcar and will prohibit each Lessee of any Portfolio Railcar to operate such Portfolio Railcar in violation of any provision of any insurance policy in effect with respect to such Railcar or in any jurisdiction where all of the insurance required hereunder shall not remain in full force and effect or in violation of any law, treaty, statute, rule, directive, regulation or order of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Portfolio Railcar or in violation of any applicable certificate, license or registration relating to such Portfolio Railcar issued by any such Governmental Authority.
(d)    In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 6.06, it is understood and agreed that:
70

[Term Loan Agreement]
(i) none of the Collateral Agent, the Depositary, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Derivatives Creditors or their respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 6.06, it being understood that (A) the Borrower shall look solely to its insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Collateral Agent, the Depositary, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Derivatives Creditors or their agents or employees; provided, however, that if the insurance policies do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Borrower hereby agrees to waive its right of recovery, if any, against the Collateral Agent, the Depositary, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Derivatives Creditors and their agents and employees, to the extent permitted by law; and
(ii)    in the event that the Borrower shall fail to maintain insurance as herein provided, the Administrative Agent may at its option, upon prior written notice to the Borrower (provided that the Borrower has not procured the necessary insurance in the interim and notified the Administrative Agent in reasonable detail of the procurement, coverage and term thereof), provide such insurance and, in such event, the Borrower shall, upon demand from time to time, reimburse the Administrative Agent for the cost thereof together with interest from the date of payment thereof, on the amount of the cost to the Administrative Agent of such insurance which the Borrower shall have failed to maintain. If after the Administrative Agent has provided such insurance, the Borrower then obtains such coverage which was replaced by the insurance provided by the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower provides the Administrative Agent with evidence of such coverage reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall cancel the insurance it has provided pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph. In such event, the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for all costs to the Administrative Agent of cancellation, including without limitation any short rate penalty, together with interest from the date of the Administrative Agent’s payment thereof. In addition, at any time the Administrative Agent (either directly or in the name of any Lenders) or any Lenders may at its own expense carry insurance with respect to its interest in the Portfolio Railcars, provided that such insurance does not interfere with the Borrower’s ability to insure the Portfolio Railcars as required under the Loan Documents or adversely affect the Borrower’s insurance or the cost thereof. Any insurance payments received from policies maintained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to the previous sentence shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, without reducing or otherwise affecting the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
SECTION 6.07    Operation, Use and Maintenance. (a) Operation and Use. The Borrower will and will require each Lessee to use the Portfolio Railcars only for lawful purposes and shall use and operate and require each Lessee to use and operate the Portfolio Railcars in compliance in all material respects with Applicable Law, except for so long as the Borrower or a Lessee is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted the validity or application of such Applicable Law in any reasonable manner. The Portfolio Railcars may not be located or used in any country other than the United States, Canada or Mexico.
(b) Maintenance. The Borrower will or will require each Lessee to keep, repair and maintain the Portfolio Railcars (i) in good order and operating condition according to industry practice for Railcars of similar age and vintage, ordinary wear and tear excepted, (ii) in compliance in all material respects with Applicable Law, except for so long as the Borrower or a Lessee is contesting in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted the validity or application of such Applicable Law in any reasonable manner, (iii) suitable for use in interchange in accordance with the Interchange Rules and (iv) with respect to Portfolio Railcars not subject to a Lease, at least as well in all material respects as it would for other similar equipment owned, operated or serviced by the Servicer. In addition to (but without limitation of) the foregoing obligation of the Borrower, with respect to any Portfolio Railcar subject to a Lease, the Borrower will, or will cause the Servicer to, use reasonable commercial efforts to cause the Lessee of such Railcar to comply with the maintenance requirements set forth in such Leases consistent with the Standard of Care.
71

[Term Loan Agreement]
(c)    Identification Numbers. (i) The Borrower shall cause each Portfolio Railcar to be numbered with its reporting mark as shown on the Bill of Sale under which such Portfolio Railcar was delivered to the Borrower.
(ii)    The Borrower may change or permit to be changed the identifying number of any Portfolio Railcar in accordance with its or the Servicer’s normal business practices at the time applied in a nondiscriminatory manner. Concurrently with the delivery of the Monthly Report in June and December of each calendar year or promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent if there exists an Event of Default, the Borrower, or the Servicer on its behalf, shall deliver to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent (A) a list of the identifying numbers of all Portfolio Railcars that have been changed within the prior 6 months and (B) within ten (10) Business Days of the delivery of the applicable Monthly Report, evidence of the filing, recording or deposit in such public offices where the Security Agreement (or memoranda or notices thereof) have been filed, recorded or deposited reflecting such changes in identifying numbers as may be necessary to preserve and perfect the interest of the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in the Portfolio Railcars whose identifying numbers have changed. If Borrower fails to make the applicable filing, recording or deposit provided for in this Section 6.07(c)(ii), the relevant Portfolio Railcars that would have been covered by such filing, recording or deposit shall be excluded from the calculation of the Loan-to-Value Ratio.
(d)    Insignia. Except as provided in Section 6.07(c), the Borrower will not allow the name of any Person to be placed on any Railcar as a designation that might be interpreted as a claim of ownership; provided, however, that the Borrower may permit any of the Portfolio Railcars to be lettered with the names, trademarks, initials or other insignia customarily used by the Borrower or its Affiliates, the Servicer and its Affiliates, or any Lessee or its Affiliates, on railroad equipment used or leased by such Person of the same or a similar type for convenience of identification of its right to use such Portfolio Railcar under any applicable Lease, and any of the Portfolio Railcars may be lettered in an appropriate manner for convenience of identification of the interest of the Borrower or any Lessee therein.
SECTION 6.08    Replacement of Parts; Modifications and Improvements. (a) Replacement of Parts. The Borrower, at its sole cost and expense (whether from the Operating Expenses Account or otherwise), will as promptly as practicable replace all Parts with respect to Portfolio Railcars that are not then subject to a Lease or are required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to a Lease that may from time to time become worn out, obsolete, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use for any reason whatsoever. In addition, in the course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, the Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, may remove any Part, whether or not worn out, obsolete, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use. All replacement Parts shall be selected and installed in accordance with the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s normal business practices at that time applied in a nondiscriminatory manner and shall be free and clear of all Liens except Permitted Liens and shall be in good operating condition.
(b)    [Intentionally Omitted].
72

[Term Loan Agreement]
(c) Required Modifications and Improvements. Subject to clause (e) of this Section 6.08, in the event (i) any Governmental Authority or any Applicable Law requires as a condition of continued use or operation of any Portfolio Railcar in any commodity service as reasonably determined by the Servicer that such Portfolio Railcar be altered or modified or (ii) any Governmental Authority determines that any Portfolio Railcar may be in an unsafe operating condition and as a result the Borrower determines that such Portfolio Railcar must be altered or modified (each occurrence under the foregoing clauses (i) or (ii), a “Required Modification”), the Borrower shall make or have made such Required Modification in a timely manner; provided that, the Borrower may, in good faith and by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted, contest the validity or application of any such law, regulation, requirement or rule in any reasonable manner which does not materially interfere with the use, possession, operation or return of any Portfolio Railcar or materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the other Protected Parties in the Portfolio Railcars or under any Loan Document or otherwise expose the Borrower to criminal or material financial sanctions. If the Borrower (after consultation with the Servicer) believes that any Required Modification to either an individual Portfolio Railcar or an aggregate of Portfolio Railcars would be economically impractical, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Administrative Agent that such Required Modification is economically impractical and shall treat such Portfolio Railcar as if an Event of Loss had occurred as of the date of such written notice with respect to such Portfolio Railcar. In such event the provisions of the Loan Documents with respect to Events of Loss shall apply with respect to such Portfolio Railcar. In reaching any decision as to whether a Required Modification is economically impractical, the Borrower shall assess the cost and timing of the Required Modification, the anticipated revenues and other sources of funds which would be available to the Borrower to fund such costs, the requirements of the Loan Documents and such other factors as the Borrower considers necessary or appropriate and shall provide a report to the Administrative Agent, regarding such assessment.
(d)    Optional Modifications and Improvements. The Borrower may modify, alter or improve any Portfolio Railcar in a manner which is not a Required Modification, including any Portfolio Railcar not then under a Lease (an “Optional Modification”), if the Borrower concludes in good faith that the proposed Optional Modification is likely to enhance the marketability of the Portfolio Railcar (or such Optional Modification is requested by a Lessee); provided that Optional Modifications may be funded only from (i) Capital Contributions to the Borrower (for the avoidance of doubt, such Capital Contributions are permitted but not required under this Agreement), (ii) distributions which would otherwise be made to or at the direction of the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(i) or Section 2.07(c)(ii), or (iii) proceeds of a Permitted Discretionary Sale, Event of Loss or Casualty to the extent owing to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided that no Optional Modification shall diminish the fair market value, utility, residual value or remaining economic useful life of such Portfolio Railcar below the fair market value, utility, residual value or remaining economic useful life thereof immediately prior to such Optional Modification, in more than a de minimis respect.
(e)    Modification Costs. The cost of any Required Modification to a Railcar, to the extent not borne by the applicable Lessee, shall be borne by the Borrower.
SECTION 6.09    Replacement of Railcars; Optional Reinvestment Account.
(a)    Disposition Proceeds. All Net Cash Proceeds from an Asset Disposition on deposit in the Collection Account shall be applied in the manner and order of priority set forth in Section 2.07(c)(i) or Section 2.07(c)(ii), as applicable, or alternatively, (i) in the case of an Asset Disposition constituting an Event of Loss or Condemnation, unless the Borrower intends to use the proceeds of such Asset Disposition to acquire Qualifying Replacement Railcars, any excess Net Cash Proceeds after the mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.07(b) is made may be deposited into the Modifications and Improvements Account to fund Optional Modifications in accordance with Section 6.09(b) or (ii) such Net Cash Proceeds may be deposited into the Optional Reinvestment Account to fund the acquisition cost of the Qualifying Replacement Railcars in accordance with Section 6.09(c).
73

[Term Loan Agreement]
(b)    Reinvestment of Proceeds from an Event of Loss or Condemnation. The Borrower may reinvest proceeds from an Event of Loss or Condemnation that have been deposited into the Modifications and Improvements Account as described above to fund all or a portion of the cost of one or more Required Modifications or Optional Modifications in respect of existing Railcars of the Borrower. At any time in its discretion within 180 days of deposit into the Modifications and Improvements Account, the Borrower may also elect to transfer amounts so deposited in the Modifications and Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) into the Collection Account for application as Net Cash Proceeds for the Measuring Period in which such transfer is made. In any other case, any such amounts in the Modifications and Improvements Account (and not otherwise applied) shall be transferred to the Collection Account for application as Net Cash Proceeds on the next Settlement Date following the 181st day following their deposit.
(c)    Reinvestment of Sale/Disposition Proceeds in Replacement Railcars. In the event the Borrower intends to use the proceeds of a Permitted Discretionary Sale to acquire Qualifying Replacement Railcars pursuant to a Permitted Discretionary Acquisition, such replacement and acquisition shall occur prior to the Settlement Date immediately preceding the date falling 180 days after the effective date of such Permitted Discretionary Sale. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Qualifying Replacement Railcar Certificate prior to acquiring such Qualifying Replacement Railcars. All Railcars that replace Portfolio Railcars subject to a Permitted Discretionary Sale pursuant to a Permitted Discretionary Acquisition shall be Qualifying Replacement Railcars in order to be Portfolio Railcars. Upon acquisition, such Replacement Railcars (and any related Leases) will become subject to the lien of the Security Agreement (and related Loan Documents). To the extent such proceeds are not so used to acquire Qualifying Replacement Railcars pursuant to a Permitted Discretionary Acquisition prior to the Settlement Date immediately preceding the date falling 180 days after the effective date of such Permitted Discretionary Sale, at the written direction of the Administrative Agent such amounts shall be transferred to the Collection Account prior to such Settlement Date for application as Net Cash Proceeds for the Measuring Period in which such transfer is made.
SECTION 6.10    Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely for the purposes set forth in Section 5.13. The Portfolio Railcars (including the Initial Portfolio Railcars), being utilized for low-carbon transportation of goods, have been confirmed by Sustainalytics to align with the Green Loan Principles. Without prejudice to any obligations of the Borrower under any provisions of this Agreement, any failure of the Borrower to align with the SPO shall in no event (i) constitute a Servicer Replacement Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or an Event of Default hereunder, under any other Loan Document, or under the Servicing Agreement, or (ii) limit, restrict or otherwise affect the use of proceeds pursuant to this Section 6.10. Eligible Green Assets exclude Portfolio Railcars which transport fossil fuels (crude oil, coal, refined products and natural gases). Any new commodities will be determined eligible or not by TILC based on the nature of the commodity. While not compulsory, TILC strives to target, on a fair market value basis, Eligible Green Assets equal to at least 75% of the total Portfolio Railcars, maintaining a 10% cushion to accommodate for fluctuation in fair market value, cash reserves within the transactions under this Agreement and amortization over time.
SECTION 6.11 Audits and Inspections.
74

[Term Loan Agreement]
At the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to (i) inspect all documents of the Borrower and to the extent permitted by the Servicing Agreement or the TILC Insurance Agreement, the Servicer (the “Related Documents”), including without limitation all leases, insurance policies, warranties or other agreements relating to the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral (during such period of time when such Portfolio Railcar or other Collateral, as the case may be, was part of the Portfolio) (each such inspection, a “Related Document Inspection”); (ii) inspect and audit each of the Borrower’s and, to the extent permitted by the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer’s books, records and databases (which shall include reasonable access to electronic copies of the Borrower’s and the Servicer’s records to the extent necessary to determine compliance with the Loan Documents) (collectively, the “Books and Records”) with respect to the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral and Related Documents (including without limitation data supporting all reporting requirements under the Loan Documents) (each such inspection, a “Books and Records Inspection”); (iii) discuss (A) the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower and the Servicer and (B) the Portfolio Railcars and the other Collateral, the Related Documents and the Books and Records, in each case with the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer of each of the Borrower and the Servicer, as applicable; (iv) conduct evaluations and appraisals of the assets included in the Collateral; and (v) subject to restrictions and procedures on inspection of the Portfolio Railcars in any applicable Lease, conduct a physical inspection of any Portfolio Railcar or otherwise obtain a Physical Inspection Report with respect thereto (each such inspection, a “Physical Inspection”, and together with each other inspection described in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, collectively, the “Inspections”); provided, however, Related Documents and Books and Records shall be subject to the terms of the Servicing Agreement and the TILC Insurance Agreement, as applicable, and shall not include the Servicer’s customer list or any other information that the Servicer reasonably determines is of a proprietary nature. All Inspections shall be conducted, at the requesting Person’s expense and no more frequently than once in any annual period (unless such Inspection (x) is conducted after a Servicer Replacement Event, LTV Failure, DSCR Failure, or Utilization Failure has occurred and is continuing (or after a DSCR Failure would have occurred and been continuing if a cash Capital Contribution had not been made), (y) is conducted after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing or (z) reveals non-compliance with any covenant of the Borrower under the Loan Documents that constitutes a Default, in which case, such Inspection shall be at the expense of the Borrower and the frequency of such Inspections shall be no more than necessary as determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), with at least five Business Days’ notice from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower (with respect to Inspections of the Borrower) and the Servicer (with respect to inspections of the Borrower or the Servicer) and shall be conducted during normal business hours, be subject to the Borrower’s and the Servicer’s customary security procedures, if any, and not unreasonably disrupt the Borrower’s or the Servicer’s business; provided that, Lenders may attend any Inspection conducted by the Administrative Agent. Without prejudice to the right to conduct Inspections, all parties granted inspection rights hereunder shall confer with a view toward coordinating their conduct with respect to Inspections in order to minimize the costs thereof and business disruption attendant thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, any Physical Inspection conducted by the Administrative Agent shall (i) be subject to all rights of the applicable Lessee under the Lease (including quiet enjoyment rights), (ii) not interfere with the Borrower’s or any Lessees’ operation of the subject Railcars, and (iii) be limited to a total of 10% of the Portfolio Railcars (measured by number of Portfolio Railcars) for any single Physical Inspection.
SECTION 6.12    Stamp Tax.

[Term Loan Agreement]
Each Lessee Notice was or shall be, as applicable, in form and substance sufficient to satisfy the Lease Notice Requirements of such Lease.
(e)    If in respect of any Lease, at any time such Lease prohibits the lessor of such Lease to assign in favor of the Borrower or the Collateral Agent or grant a Lien in respect of its rights thereunder, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Contribution Agreement and the Collateral Documents, without the consent of the relevant Lessee given in accordance with the terms thereof (“Lessee Consent Requirements”), the Borrower shall obtain a consent from such Lessee in writing acknowledging that such Lease has been assigned to the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Protected Parties and consenting thereto (a “Lessee Consent”) (A) in the case of a Lease of a Railcar acquired by the Borrower as of the Closing Date, within 60 days after the Closing Date, (B) in the case of each Lease of a Railcar acquired by the Borrower after the Closing Date, within sixty (60) days of the date such Railcar is acquired, (C) in the case of a Follow-On Lease, within sixty (60) days of the date such Lease commences and (D) notwithstanding clauses (A) through (C) above, in the case of any Lease under which Lessee Consent Requirements become effective after the date on which the applicable Railcar was acquired or, in the case of a Follow-On Lease, after the date the Lease commenced, within sixty (60) days of the date such Lessee Consent Requirements became effective.
Each Lessee Consent shall be in form and substance sufficient to satisfy the Lessee Consent Requirements of such Lease. If, in accordance with the terms set forth above, a Lessee Consent complying with this Section 6.14(e) is not obtained from the applicable Lessee within 60 days of the date on which such Lessee Consent Requirement arose, a “Lessee Consent Trigger Event” shall have occurred.

SECTION 6.17    Required Disclosures. Promptly, following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall provide all documentation and other information the Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably requests about the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

SECTION 6.18    Liquidity Reserve Account. Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary shall not transfer or otherwise withdraw funds on deposit in the Liquidity Reserve Account at any time; provided that, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on each Settlement Date prior to the application of funds pursuant to Section 2.07(c), the Depositary shall, at the written request of the Borrower, release funds in the Liquidity Reserve Account, in excess of the Liquidity Reserve Target Amount, to the Collection Account.
SECTION 6.19    Green Loans. From time to time following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall assist with the furnishing of the SPO, as well as any reasonable reporting in alignment with the Framework and other associated documents that are not otherwise made available on the company website of Trinity. Without prejudice to any obligations of the Borrower under any provisions of this Agreement, any failure of the Borrower to comply with its obligations under this Section 6.19 shall in no event constitute a Servicer Replacement Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or an Event of Default hereunder, under any other Loan Document, or under the Servicing Agreement. Each of the Borrower and TILC hereby agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any representations, use of proceeds, certifications, and reporting made or submitted by the Borrower with respect to the Eligible Green Assets in any Green Loan Report and the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for or liability in respect of independently reviewing, auditing or otherwise evaluating any such representation, use of proceeds, certification and/or reporting. Each party hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent makes no assurances as to (i) whether this Agreement meets any Borrower or Lender criteria or expectations with regard to environmental or social impact or sustainability performance; or (ii) whether the definition of Eligible Green Assets included in this Agreement meets any industry standards for sustainable finance instruments. Each party hereby agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, if the Borrower no longer (A) complies with the Framework; or (B) allocates the proceeds to any non-eligible investments, then the Borrower shall, upon obtaining Knowledge of the same, notify the Administrative Agent and the Green Advisor in writing no later than 15 days after it becomes aware of such event. The Administrative Agent and the Green Advisor acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders shall notify the Borrower of any declassification pursuant to this Section 6.19 and this Agreement shall, with immediate effect, be declassified by the Administrative Agent and Green Advisor as a green term loan labeled facility. From the date of such declassification, the Borrower shall, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within 10 days of notice from the Administrative Agent and the Green Advisor: (i) cease representing in all internal and external communications, marketing or publications that the Loans are green loans; and (ii) ensure that all material, publications and information it publishes no longer refers to the Loans as green loans. Upon the occurrence of a declassification, each Lender will cease making any representation in external communications, marketing and/or publication that the Loans are green loans, and/or compliant with Green Loan Principles, including any references in any public list, league table or similar publication. For avoidance of doubt, neither failure to notify the Administrative Agent and the Green Advisor in accordance with the foregoing nor a declassification shall constitute a Servicer Replacement Event, Mandatory Prepayment Event, Default or an Event of Default hereunder, under any other Loan Document, or under the Servicing Agreement.

ARTICLE X

AGENCY PROVISIONS
SECTION 10.01 Appointment; Authorization. (a) Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as agent of such Lender to act as specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, as the agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated by the terms hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including, but not limited to the appointing of the Collateral Agent under the Security Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or shall otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower.
88

[Term Loan Agreement]
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing two sentences, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Article X (other than Section 10.09) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of the provisions hereof (other than Section 10.09). Each Lender incorporated in Germany hereby relieves each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent from the restrictions on multi-representation pursuant to section 181 alternative 2 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) and similar restrictions under any other applicable law.
(b)    Collateral Documents. Without limiting the generality of clause (a) of this Section 10.01, each Lender hereby further designates and appoints U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association as Collateral Agent and U.S. Bank National Association as Depositary and each such Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into any Collateral Document as secured party on behalf of and for the benefit of such Lender or otherwise and to require the delivery of any Collateral Document which the Administrative Agent determines is necessary or advisable to protect or perfect the interests of the Protected Parties in any Collateral and agrees to be bound by the terms of each of the Collateral Documents. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, but subject to Section 11.08, each Lender agrees that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document or Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent (or its designee, including the Collateral Agent and the Depositary) for the benefit of Protected Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent (or its designee, including the Collateral Agent and the Depositary) (a) to release or subordinate Collateral as permitted or required under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, and agrees that a certificate or other instrument executed by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent evidencing such release of Collateral shall be conclusive evidence of such release as to any third party and (b) except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 11.03 hereof, to enter into any amendments or waivers of the Collateral Documents which the Administrative Agent determines are necessary or advisable, including, without limitation, Collateral Documents the form of which are exhibits to this Agreement.
SECTION 10.02    Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. None of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 10.03    Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary, the Collateral Agent, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders or participants for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, TILC, any Seller or any other Person (other than itself)
89

[Term Loan Agreement]
contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Loan Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Loan Documents, or for any failure of the Borrower, TILC, any Seller or any other Person (other than itself) to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower, TILC or any Seller.
SECTION 10.04    Reliance on Communications. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex, teletype or e-mail message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower, TILC or any Seller, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct). The Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.06(b). Each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in Section 11.03) or the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in Section 11.03) or the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns). Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless all the Lenders (to the extent specifically provided in Section 11.03) or the Required Lenders otherwise determine, each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall, and in all other instances each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or vote of the Lenders.
SECTION 10.05 Notice of Default. Neither the Collateral Agent nor the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have Knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Trigger Event, DSCR Failure, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, unless such party has received notice from a Lender, the Servicer or the Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, as applicable, describing such Trigger Event, DSCR Failure, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of trigger event”, “notice of DSCR failure”, “notice of default”, “notice of servicer replacement event” or a “notice of event of default” as the case may be. If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.
90

[Term Loan Agreement]
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Trigger Event, DSCR Failure, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and, in the case the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Trigger Event, DSCR Failure, Default, Servicer Replacement Event or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.
SECTION 10.06    Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to any Lender as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent has disclosed material information in its possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower, TILC and each Seller, and all requirements of Applicable Law, and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower, TILC and each Seller. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or its respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be.
SECTION 10.07 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders agree, severally but not jointly, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitments (or if the Commitments have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of outstanding Loans of the Lenders), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following payment in full of the Obligations and including the costs and expenses of enforcing such Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent in each of their respective capacities as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section.
91

[Term Loan Agreement]
If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, be insufficient or become impaired, each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Obligations and all other obligations and amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
SECTION 10.08    Administrative Agent, Depositary and Collateral Agent in Their Individual Capacities. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting and other business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent were not the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent hereunder or under another Loan Document. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to any such activities, the Administrative Agent, the Depositary, the Collateral Agent or their respective Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that none of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent shall be under any obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to the Loans made by and all obligations owing to it, each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it was not the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in their respective individual capacities. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary and the Collateral Agent shall have the same rights, protections, indemnities, and immunities hereunder as are afforded to the Collateral Agent under the Security Agreement.
SECTION 10.09 Term; Successor Administrative Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign upon 30 days’ written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent resigns as described above, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent that is either (a) a Lender party to this Agreement on the Closing Date (each such Lender, an “Original Lender”) or an Affiliate of an Original Lender (each Original Lender and their respective Affiliates, an “Approved Successor Administrative Agent”), (b) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, or (c) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such appointment, the Required Lenders shall have first obtained the prior written consent of the Borrower to any successor Administrative Agent that is not an Approved Successor Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Administrative Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the resigning Administrative Agent, the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor Administrative Agent that is an Approved Successor Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.
92

[Term Loan Agreement]
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as an Administrative Agent, as appropriate, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Administrative Agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent within 60 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective and the Lenders shall perform all duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.

Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(c)    In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, and upon demand from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.
(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, and upon the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or the Depositary’s, as applicable, written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or the Depositary’s, as applicable, applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Without limitation of its rights hereunder, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, may cancel any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such revocation all of the Loans assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without any requirement for payment or other consideration. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 11.06 and (3) the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person.

[Term Loan Agreement]
(e)    Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, under this Section 10.11 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by the Borrower, the Servicer or a Seller, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Depositary, as applicable, from the Borrower, the Servicer or a Seller for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.
(f)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Depositary or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.
(g)    Nothing in this Section 10.11 will (i) constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment or (ii) give rise to any additional or increased costs or obligations on the part of the Borrower.
(h)    This Section 10.11 shall not apply to any Derivatives Creditor and the related Derivatives Agreements.

Any notice or other communication permitted to be given, made or confirmed by telephone hereunder shall be given, made or confirmed by means of a telephone call to the intended recipient at the number specified on Schedule 11.01, it being understood and agreed that a voicemail message shall in no event be effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.
(b)    Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or other electronic means. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to requirements of Applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Depositary may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
(c)    Reliance by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.

SECTION 11.02    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary or any Lender and the Borrower shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
SECTION 11.03 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. Subject to Section 3.06(c), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document (other than the Administrative Agent Fee Letter which may be amended in accordance with its terms and, solely with respect to a joinder thereto of any Person that becomes a Seller after the Closing Date, the Purchase and Contribution Agreement which may be amended in accordance with its terms) nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated except, in the case of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements or a consent or consents in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders); provided that the foregoing shall not restrict the ability of the Administrative Agent (x) at the direction of the Required Lenders to waive any Event of Default prior to the time the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall have declared the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article IX, or (y) to effect any amendments to the Loan Documents as a result of the making of any New Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.14; provided, however, that:

(A)    extend the Maturity Date or any payment of the Loans due thereon; provided that this clause (A) shall not restrict the ability of the Required Lenders to waive any Event of Default (other than an Event of Default the waiver of which would effectively result in any such extension or waiver), prior to the time the Administrative Agent shall have declared, or the Required Lenders shall have requested the Administrative Agent to declare, the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article IX;
(B)    reduce the rate, or extend the time of payment, of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) thereon or fees hereunder or amend or modify or, if applicable, waive the effects of the definition of “Applicable Facility Margin”;

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (i) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein and (ii) the Required Lenders may consent to allow the Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
No amendment to (a) the definitions of “Creditor”, “Derivatives Agreement”, “Derivatives Creditor”, “Derivatives Obligations”, “Derivatives Termination Value”, “Obligations” or “Protected Party” contained in Section 1.01 and the definition of “Secured Obligations” in Section 1.01 of the Security Agreement, Section 2.07(a)(iii), Section 2.07(b) or Section 2.07(c), Section 5.25, Section 9.01, Section 9.03, this paragraph of Section 11.03, Section 11.05, Section 11.17, and Section 9.06 of the Security Agreement only, shall be effective without the written consent of the Derivatives Creditors and (b) any other provision of this Agreement in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on a Derivatives Creditor shall be effective without the written consent of such Derivatives Creditor.

The various requirements of this Section 11.03 are cumulative. Each Lender and each holder of a Note shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 11.03 regardless of whether its Note shall have been marked to make reference therein, and any consent by any Lender or holder of a Note pursuant to this Section 11.03 shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring a Note from it, whether or not such Note shall have been so marked.

100

[Term Loan Agreement]
THE FOREGOING INDEMNIFICATION SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT SUCH LIABILITIES AND COSTS ARE IN ANY WAY OR TO ANY EXTENT OWED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, UNDER ANY CLAIM OR THEORY OF STRICT LIABILITY OR CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY KIND BY ANY INDEMNITEE; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any claim caused by its own fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, further, that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 11.05 in respect of (a) Taxes (which shall be governed solely by Section 3.01 and Section 3.03), other than Taxes imposed with respect to indemnity payments arising from a non-tax claim or (b) losses which result from or arise out of or are attributable to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code caused by the incorrectness of a Lender’s representation in Section 8.01. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 11.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by TILC, the Borrower, any Seller, their respective directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person or any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower or any Indemnitee hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and each Indemnitee contained in this Section 11.05 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments hereunder.
The Borrower shall, no later than the next Settlement Date that is at least ten (10) Business Days following demand, reimburse any Indemnitee for any Indemnified Liability referred to above or, upon request from any Indemnitee, shall pay such amounts directly. Any payment made to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 11.05 shall be adjusted to such amount as will, after taking into account all Taxes imposed with respect to the accrual or receipt of such payment (as the same may be increased pursuant to this sentence), equal the amount of the payment. To the extent that the Borrower in fact indemnifies any Indemnitee pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.05 (other than in respect of Taxes), the Borrower shall be subrogated to such Indemnitee’s rights in the affected transaction and shall have a right to determine the settlement of claims therein.
If a claim of the type described above is made against an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee has notice thereof, such Indemnitee shall promptly, upon receiving such notice, give notice of such claim to the Borrower; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder except if and to the extent that such failure results in an increase in the Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder.
101

[Term Loan Agreement]
The Borrower shall be entitled, in each case at its sole cost and expense, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to the relevant Indemnitee: (i) in any judicial or administrative proceeding that involves solely a claim of the type described above, to assume responsibility for and control thereof, (ii) in any judicial or administrative proceeding involving a claim of the type described above and other claims related or unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than with respect to Taxes), to assume responsibility for and control of such claim, to the extent that the same may be and is severed from such other claims (and such Indemnitee shall use its best efforts to obtain such severance), and (iii) in any other case, to be consulted by such Indemnitee with respect to judicial proceedings subject to the control of such Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be entitled to assume responsibility for and control of any such judicial or administrative proceedings: (A) while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) if such proceedings will involve any risk of criminal liability or a material risk of the sale, forfeiture or loss of any part of the Collateral; or (C) to the extent that the Indemnitee has defenses available to it which are not available to the Borrower and allowing the Borrower to assert such defenses will be prejudicial to the interests of such Indemnitee; provided that the limitation on the Borrower’s ability to control such judicial or administrative proceeding shall apply only to those aspects of such proceeding which address issues with respect to which such defenses are available.
The relevant Indemnitee shall supply the Borrower with such information reasonably requested by the Borrower as is necessary or advisable for the Borrower to control or participate in any proceeding to the extent permitted by this Section 11.05. Such Indemnitee shall not enter into a settlement or other compromise with respect to any covered claim without the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless such Indemnitee waives its right to be protected with respect to such covered claim.
SECTION 11.06    Successors, Assigns, and Participants. (a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its interests and obligations without the prior written consent of the Lenders.
(b)    Assignments. Any Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans); provided, however, that:
(i)    each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee;
(ii)    the aggregate amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to such assignment shall not be less than $25,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall equal the assigning Lender’s entire Loans); and
(iii)    the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance an Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit C, together with any Note subject to such assignment and, unless waived by the Administrative Agent, a processing fee of $3,500, payable by the assigning Lender to the Administrative Agent.
102

[Term Loan Agreement]

Upon execution, delivery, and acceptance of such Assignment and Acceptance and the recording of such assignment in the Register under Section 11.06(d), the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of such assignment, have the obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.06(c), the assignor, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are issued to the assignor and the assignee. The assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of Taxes in accordance with Section 3.01.
(d) Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 11.06(d), to (i) maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record the Commitments from time to time of each Lender, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans of each Lender and to (ii) retain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan and the Note evidencing the same is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. With respect to any Lender, the assignment or other transfer of the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made and any Note issued pursuant to this Agreement shall not be effective until such assignment or other transfer is recorded on the Register and, except to the extent provided in this Section 11.06(d), otherwise complies with Section 11.06, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferring Lender with respect to such Loans and Notes shall remain owing to the transferring Lender. The registration of assignment or other transfer of all or part of any Loans and Notes for a Lender shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee referred to in Section 11.06(b)(iii). The Register shall be available at the offices where kept by the Administrative Agent for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent.
103

[Term Loan Agreement]
(e)    Participations. Each Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees in all or a portion of its rights, obligations or rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it and any Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall be entitled to the benefit of right of setoff contained in Section 11.08 and the yield protection provisions contained in Sections 3.01 and 3.03 solely to the extent that the Lender from which such participant acquired its participation would be entitled to the benefits of such yield protections; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any participant pursuant to Sections 3.01 or 3.03 in an amount which exceeds the amount that would have been payable thereunder to such Lender had such Lender not sold such participation; provided further, that no participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless it shall have complied with Section 3.01 as if it were a Lender and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Obligations owing to such Lender and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on such Loans or Notes, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on such Loans or Notes or extending its Commitment). Each Lender that sells a participating interest in any Loan, Commitment or other interest to a participant shall, as agent for the Borrower solely for the purpose of this Section 11.06, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans, Commitments or other interest (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, or other interest is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Proposed Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(f)    Other Assignments. Any Lender may at any time (i) assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Loans and Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank or other similar central bank and (ii) pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Loans and Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender; provided that no such assignment, option, pledge or security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
104

[Term Loan Agreement]
substitute any such Federal Reserve Bank or other similar central bank or other person to which such option, pledge or assignment has been made for such Lender as a party hereto.
SECTION 11.07    Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors and its insurers, reinsurers and insurance brokers (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority with jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or Lender, as applicable; (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (iv) to any other party to this Agreement; (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any Eligible Assignee of or participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement and any Federal Reserve Bank or other similar central bank or other Person to whom pledge or assignment is or is contemplated to be made as described in Section 11.06(f), or (B) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrower; (vii) with the written consent of the Borrower; (viii) to the extent such information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; or (ix) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of the Borrower, TILC, any Seller or the Servicer relating to the Borrower, TILC, such Seller or the Servicer or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by or on behalf of the Borrower, TILC, such Seller or the Servicer. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The provisions of this Section 11.07 are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any additional, separate agreements related to confidentiality and/or non-disclosure entered into between the Borrower and any Protected Party from time to time.
SECTION 11.08 Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender (and each of its Affiliates) is authorized at any time and from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all of such rights being hereby expressly waived), to set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or specific) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, branches, agencies or Affiliates of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders hereunder, under the Loans and Notes, under the other Loan Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender subsequent thereto.
105

[Term Loan Agreement]
The Borrower hereby agrees that to the extent permitted by law any Person purchasing a participation in the Loans hereunder may exercise all rights of set-off with respect to its participation interest as fully as if such Person were a Lender hereunder and any such set-off shall reduce the amount owed by the Borrower to the Lender.
SECTION 11.09    Interest Rate Limitation. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower and any other parties to the Loan Documents intend to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof such Persons stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged by Applicable Law from time to time in effect (the “Maximum Rate”). Neither the Borrower nor any present or future guarantors, endorsers, or other Persons hereafter becoming liable for payment of any Credit Obligation shall ever be liable for unearned interest thereon or shall ever be required to pay interest thereon in excess of the maximum amount that may be lawfully charged under Applicable Law from time to time in effect, and the provisions of this Section shall control over all other provisions of the Loan Documents which may be in conflict or apparent conflict herewith. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of any Credit Obligation is accelerated. If (i) the maturity of any Credit Obligation is accelerated for any reason, (ii) any Credit Obligation is prepaid and as a result any amounts held to constitute interest are determined to be in excess of the legal maximum, or (iii) any Lender or any other holder of any or all of the Credit Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are determined to constitute interest which would otherwise increase the interest on any or all of the Credit Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be charged by Applicable Law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Credit Obligations or, at such Lender’s or holder’s option, promptly returned to the Borrower or the other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower (and any other payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under Applicable Law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than as interest, (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (iii) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the Credit Obligations in accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect under Applicable Law in order to lawfully charge the maximum amount of interest permitted under Applicable Law.
SECTION 11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. It is agreed by the parties hereto that, notwithstanding the use herein of the words “writing,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” or other words of similar import, the parties hereto intend that the use of digital or electronic signatures and the keeping of records in electronic form be granted the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a signature affixed by hand or the use of a paper-based record keeping system (as the case might be) to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Depositary shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature (including an electronic or digital signature), notice, request, consent, certificate, opinion, or other instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
106

[Term Loan Agreement]
SECTION 11.11    Integration. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER CONFIDENTIALITY OR NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS ENTERED INTO BETWEEN THE BORROWER AND ANY PROTECTED PARTY ON OR PRIOR TO THE DATE HEREOF, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.
SECTION 11.12    Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have had notice or Knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of the Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.
SECTION 11.13    Severability. Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 11.14    Headings. The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.
SECTION 11.15 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Administrative Agent, the Depositary, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent, the Depositary or the Collateral Agent (or to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders, or to the Collateral Agent or the Depositary for the benefit of the Protected Parties), or the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent enforces any security interests or exercises its rights of set-off, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.
107

[Term Loan Agreement]
SECTION 11.16    Performance by the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Servicing Document in a timely fashion, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, but not obliged, to perform such obligation at the expense of the Borrower and without waiving any rights that it may have with respect to such breach.
SECTION 11.17    Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Protected Party and Indemnitee is an express third party beneficiary hereof; provided that this Agreement may be amended without the consent of any such Protected Party or Indemnitee, except to the extent required pursuant to Section 11.03.
SECTION 11.18    Consequential Damages. None of the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall assert any claim against any other party hereto on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any Indemnitee from seeking indemnification under Section 11.05 for any such damages claimed by a third party.
SECTION 11.19    Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY RIGHT, OBLIGATION, CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York in the Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States for the Southern District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such courts. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
SECTION 11.20    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
108

[Term Loan Agreement]
SECTION 11.21    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective at such time when: (a) it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, the Depositary and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof (telefaxed or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each Lender, and (b) each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 shall have been satisfied or waived, and thereafter this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
SECTION 11.22    Federal Income Tax Treatment. The Borrower, each Lender, the Administrative Agent, and each assignee and successor thereto hereby agrees to treat the Loans as indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, and shall maintain such position in all returns and proceedings relating to such federal income taxes, unless required otherwise pursuant to a final “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code.
SECTION 11.23    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b)    the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
    (i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
    (ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
    (iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
SECTION 11.24    Limited Recourse and Non-Petition.
(a)    Each of the Protected Parties (other than the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders)) agrees that it shall not instigate any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, amalgamation or dissolution or other similar process with respect to the Borrower, although it may make or file a claim or proof, or take any other action, in any existing bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, amalgamation or dissolution of the Borrower.
(b)    For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 11.24 shall:
(i)    release or discharge the Borrower or any other Person from their obligations under any of the Loan Documents;
109

[Term Loan Agreement]
(ii)    prevent any sum from falling due in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents,
(iii)    limit or restrict in any way the accrual of interest on any unpaid sum in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents,
(iv)    limit the exercise and enforcement of the rights and remedies of the Protected Parties under the Collateral Documents;
(v)    restrict the Protected Parties from obtaining (but not enforcing) a declaratory judgment or similar order as to the obligations of the Borrower, TILC or any Seller expressed to be assumed hereunder or under any other Loan Document, but only to the extent that such declaratory judgment or similar order is a necessary procedural step to enable the realization of the full benefit of the Collateral and the rights granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents; or
(vi)    limit the Collateral Agent (acting at the written direction of the Required Lenders) from instigating any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, amalgamation or dissolution or other similar process with respect to the Borrower.
SECTION 11.25    Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs.
(a)    Acknowledgments.
To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Derivatives Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
(i)    In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(ii) In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
