On the Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer (to the extent not paid on such date through the payments required pursuant to Section 8(b) hereof) the accrued but unpaid Price Differential for such Payment Date (along with any other amounts to be paid pursuant to Sections 8 and 29 hereof), by wire transfer in immediately available funds.

ii. If Seller fails to pay all or part of the Price Differential by [***] (New York City time) on the related Payment Date, with respect to any Purchased Asset, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the amount of such Price Differential) interest on the unpaid Repurchase Price or Release Price, as applicable, at a rate per annum equal to the Post Default Rate calculated by Buyer from and after such Payment Date and until the Price Differential is received in full by Buyer.

iii. If prior to any Pricing Period, Buyer determines in its sole discretion that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Pricing Period, Buyer shall give prompt notice thereof to Seller, whereupon, if Buyer is also then converting the pricing rates or interest rates of similarly situated counterparties in similar facilities, the Pricing Rate for such Pricing Period, and for all subsequent Pricing Periods until such notice has been withdrawn by Buyer, shall be an alternative per annum rate based on an index approximating the behavior of LIBOR, as determined by Buyer and is consistent with the pricing index of similarly situated counterparties in similar facilities.

6. Margin Maintenance

a. If on any Asset Value Determination Date, the Asset Value of any Purchased Asset or Contributed Crop Loan is less than the Purchase Price for such Purchased Asset or Contributed Crop Loan, as applicable (a “Margin Deficit”), then, Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to transfer to Buyer cash in an amount at least equal to the Margin Deficit (such requirement, a “Margin Call”).

The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Seller Parties and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller Parties.

c. In the event that a Margin Deficit exists with respect to any Purchased Asset or Contributed Crop Loan, Buyer may retain any funds received by it to which the Seller Parties would otherwise be entitled hereunder (which for the avoidance of doubt shall not include amounts due, owing and payable to the Master Servicer, Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Custodian pursuant to Section 8 hereof and subject to the limitations set forth therein), which funds (i) shall be held by Buyer against the related Margin Deficit and (ii) may be applied by Buyer against the Purchase Price (or Purchase Price Increase) of any Purchased Asset for which the related Margin Deficit remains otherwise unsatisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer retains the right, in its sole discretion, to make a Margin Call in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.

7. Increases and Decreases to Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price; Extension of Termination Date and Availability Period

In no event shall the increase to the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price exceed [***]. To the extent the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price is increased, Seller shall remit to Buyer an additional Commitment Fee in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Commitment Fee Percentage and (y) the amount of such increase. The Commitment Fee is non-refundable and to the extent the Seller requests a decrease in the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price, no portion of the Commitment Fee shall be returned to Seller. In addition, any decrease in the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price shall result in a repurchase of Contributed Crop Loans to the extent that the outstanding Purchase Price is greater than the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price as a result of such decrease.

b. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Seller may request an extension of the Termination Date and Availability Period for an additional 364 days. Any such request shall be submitted to Buyer by Seller in writing no later than [***] prior to and no more than [***] prior to the end of the then existing Availability Period. Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to accept or reject such request within [***] of receipt thereof and Buyer’s failure to respond promptly in writing shall be deemed to be a rejection of an extension request, at which point the

Termination Date and Availability Period shall remain fixed. Any such extension of the Termination Date and/or Availability Period may be approved in the sole discretion of the Buyer and shall be further subject to any conditions set forth in the Agreement, any amendments to the terms hereof required by Buyer and the payment of any additional Commitment Fee.

In each such case, each Seller Party hereby waives the right to dispute Buyer’s record of the terms of the Transaction Request and Confirmation.

d. Notwithstanding the assignment of the Transaction Documents with respect to each Purchased Asset to Buyer, each Seller Party agrees and covenants with Buyer to enforce diligently each Seller Party’s rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents.

e. Taxes.

(1) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 11(e), the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(2) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of each Seller Party under the Transaction Documents 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 any Seller Party 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 11(e)) Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(3) Payment of Other Taxes. Each Seller Party shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes.

(4) Indemnification. Each Seller Party shall indemnify Buyer within [***] after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 11(e)) payable or paid by Buyer or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Buyer and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Seller Party by Buyer shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(5) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Seller Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 11(e), such Seller Party shall deliver or cause Guarantor to deliver, as applicable, to Buyer the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Buyer.

(6) Status of Buyer. (i) If Buyer or Buyer’s assignee is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller Parties, at the time or times reasonably requested by such Seller Party, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by such Seller Party as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, if reasonably requested by any Seller Party, Buyer or Buyer’s assignee shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Seller Party as will enable such Seller Party to determine whether or not Buyer or Buyer’s assignee is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 11(e)(7)(ii)(a) – (b) and (d) below) shall not be required if in Buyer’s or Buyer’s assignee’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject Buyer or Buyer’s assignee to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Buyer or Buyer’s assignee.

(7) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(a) If Buyer or Buyer’s assignee is a U.S. Person, Buyer or Buyer’s assignee shall deliver to each Seller Party on or prior to the date on which Buyer or Buyer’s assignee becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Seller Party), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Buyer or Buyer’s assignee is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(b) Any Foreign Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to each Seller Party (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Buyer becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Seller Party), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Buyer claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Buyer claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Buyer is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of each Seller Party within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Buyer is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Buyer is a partnership and one (1) or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Buyer are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Buyer may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(c) Any Foreign Buyer shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to each Seller Party (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Buyer becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of each Seller Party), executed originals of 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 each Seller Party to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d) If a payment made to Buyer or Buyer’s assignee under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Buyer or Buyer’s assignee were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), Buyer on behalf of Buyer or Buyer’s assignee shall deliver to such Seller Party at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Seller Party 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 such Seller Party as may be necessary for such Seller Party to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that Buyer or Buyer’s assignee has complied with Buyer or Buyer’s assignee’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Buyer and each Buyer assignee 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 Seller Parties in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(8) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 11(e) (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 11(e)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 11(e) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (8) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (8), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (8) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

f. Each party’s obligations under this Section 11(f) shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Buyer or Buyer’s assignee, the termination of the Transactions and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.

g. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal and relevant state and local income and franchise taxes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of the relevant Seller Party that is secured by the Purchased Assets, and the Purchased Assets as owned by such Seller Party in the absence of an Event of Default that has occurred and is continuing by any Seller Party. Buyer and each such Seller Party agree that they will treat and report for all tax purposes the Transactions entered into hereunder as one or more loans from Buyer to the relevant Seller Party secured by the Purchased Assets, unless otherwise prohibited by law or upon a final determination by any taxing authority that the Transactions are not loans for tax purposes.

12. Servicing

a. The Seller Parties, on Buyer’s behalf, shall contract with each of Master Servicer and Subservicer to service the Contributed Crop Loans pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement and in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices. Pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreements, the Seller and Subservicer established the Servicer Accounts in the name of Seller, in its capacity as Master Servicer, for the benefit of Buyer. The Servicer Account shall be subject to the terms of the Servicer Account Control Agreement.

b. Upon the occurrence and continuation of (i) an Event of Default hereunder or (ii) a Servicer Termination Event, Buyer shall have the right to immediately terminate the applicable Servicer’s right to service the Contributed Crop Loans without payment of any penalty or termination fee. Each Seller Party shall cooperate and shall require that the Servicers cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Contributed Crop Loans to a successor servicer appointed by Buyer in its sole discretion. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default or a Servicer Termination Event in connection with the Master Servicer, the Subservicer shall automatically be appointed as Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Subservicer Side Letter and all rights, duties and obligations of Master Servicer hereunder and under any other Transaction Document shall thereafter be the rights, duties and obligations of the Subservicer, in its capacity as a successor master servicer.

c. If any Seller Party should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, Servicer or any other entity responsible for managing or servicing any Contributed Crop Loans has failed to perform in all material respects any of the obligations of such entities with respect to Contributed Crop Loans, or that an event of default under the applicable Servicing Agreement has occurred, such Seller Party shall promptly notify Buyer.

d. In the event that any Purchased Asset or a Contributed Crop Loan is serviced by a Third Party Servicer, the Seller Parties shall provide promptly to Buyer a side letter addressed to and agreed to by such Third Party Servicer of the related Purchased Assets or Contributed Crop Loans, as applicable, advising such Third Party Servicer of such matters as Buyer may reasonably request, including, without limitation, recognition by the applicable master servicer of Buyer’s interest in such Contributed Crop Loans and the Third Party Servicer’s agreement that upon receipt of notice of an Event of Default under this Agreement from Buyer, it will follow the instructions of Buyer with respect to the Contributed Crop Loans and any related Income with respect thereto.

e. No Seller Party shall employ a Third Party Servicer without the prior written approval of Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. If the Contributed Crop Loans are serviced, in whole or in part, by a subservicer (i) the applicable Servicer shall nevertheless remain primarily liable to Buyer for the servicing of the Contributed Crop Loans under the applicable Servicing Agreement; and (ii) any agreement with a subservicer shall entitle Buyer to terminate such subservicer without fee or penalty in the event that the applicable Servicer is replaced subject to the terms of the applicable subservicing agreement.

f. Each Seller Party shall cause the Master Servicer to provide to Buyer, electronically, in a format mutually acceptable to Buyer and each Seller Party, by no later than the Servicer Reporting Date, the Servicing Report.

13. Representations and Warranties

a. Each Seller Party represents and warrants to Buyer that at all times, during the term of this Agreement:

(1) Seller Existence. Seller has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(2) Trust Subsidiary Existence. Trust Subsidiary has been duly organized and is validly existing as a statutory trust in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(3) Licenses. Each Seller Party is duly licensed or is otherwise qualified in each jurisdiction in which it transacts business for the business which it conducts and is not in default of any federal, state or local laws, rules and regulations unless, in any instance, the failure to take such action or to so comply or such default could not be reasonably likely (either individually or in the aggregate) to cause a Material Adverse Effect. Each Seller Party has the requisite power and authority and legal right to purchase Eligible Assets (as applicable) and to own, sell and grant a lien on all of its right, title and interest in and to the Eligible Assets, and to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and perform and observe the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, each Transaction Document and any Transaction Request and Confirmation.

(4) Power. Each Seller Party has all requisite corporate or other power, and has all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to own its assets and carry on its business as now being or as proposed to be conducted, except where the lack of such licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(5) Due Authorization. Each Seller Party has all necessary corporate or other power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Transaction Documents, as applicable. This Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation and the Transaction Documents have been (or, in the case of Transaction Documents and any Transaction Request and Confirmation not yet executed, will be) duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Seller Party, all requisite or other corporate action having been taken, and each is valid, binding and enforceable against each Seller Party in accordance with its terms except as such enforcement may be affected by bankruptcy, by other insolvency laws, or by general principles of equity.

(6) [reserved]

(7) Event of Default. There exists no Event of Default under Section 15(b) hereof, which default gives rise to a right to accelerate indebtedness as referenced in Section 15(b) hereof that has not been waived in writing.

(8) Solvency. Each Seller Party is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by any Transaction and, after giving effect to such Transaction, will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business.

The amount of consideration being received by each Seller Party upon the sale of the Purchased Assets (and the transfer of the related Contributed Crop Loans to Trust Subsidiary which results in a Purchase Price Increase), to Buyer constitutes reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for such Purchased Assets. No Seller Party is transferring any Purchased Asset or Contributed Crop Loan with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.

(9) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by each Seller Party of this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation hereunder and the Transaction Documents do not conflict with any term or provision of the organizational documents of such Seller Party or any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree applicable to such Seller Party of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over such Seller Party, which conflict would have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in any violation of any such mortgage, instrument, agreement or obligation to which such Seller Party is a party.

(10) True and Complete Disclosure. All information, reports, exhibits, schedules, financial statements or certificates of each Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof or any of their officers furnished or to be furnished to Buyer in connection with the initial or any ongoing due diligence of such Seller Party or any Affiliate or officer thereof, or the negotiation, preparation, or delivery of the Transaction Documents are correct in all material respects and do not omit to disclose any material facts necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.

(12) Litigation. There is no action, proceeding or investigation pending with respect to which any Seller Party has received service of process or, to the best of each Seller Party’s knowledge threatened in writing against it before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal (A) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, any Transaction, Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Transaction Document, (B) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Transaction Document, (C) makes a claim individually in an amount greater than [***] or in an aggregate amount greater than [***], (D) which requires filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission in accordance with the 1934 Act or any rules thereunder or (E) which could reasonably be likely to materially and adversely affect the validity of the Crop Loans when taken as a whole or the performance by it of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation or any Transaction Document.

(13) Material Adverse Change. There has been no change to a Seller Party having a Material Adverse Effect.

(14) Ownership. Upon payment of the Purchase Price (or related Purchase Price Increase, as applicable) and delivery of the Asset Files to the Custodian and the Custodian’s receipt of the related Asset Tape, Buyer shall be the sole owner of the related Purchased Assets (including the related Trust Subsidiary Interests) free and clear of any adverse claim (except for Permitted Liens), subject to the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents.

There are no Liens for Taxes on any of any Seller Party’s assets or income, other than statutory Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable and with respect to which adequate reserves have been made in accordance with GAAP.

(16) Investment Company. No Seller Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and it is not necessary to register the Trust Subsidiary under the Investment Company Act of 1940, for specified reasons other than the exemption provided by Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

(17) Chief Executive Office; Jurisdiction of Organization.

(20) Agreements. No Seller Party is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any agreement, instrument, or indenture which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the business, operations, properties, or financial condition of Seller. No Seller Party has received notice of any asserted default from a holder of any Indebtedness of any Seller Party or of any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(21) Other Indebtedness. Seller shall not incur any Indebtedness (other than (i) Indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement and (ii) usual and customary accounts payable for a financing company in the crop loan industry) without the prior written consent of Buyer.

In the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

a. Buyer may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller, Trust Subsidiary, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). Buyer shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency of Seller, Trust Subsidiary, Guarantor or any of their respective Affiliates) give notice to the Seller Parties of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable.

b. If Buyer exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Section, (i) each Seller Party’s obligations to repurchase all Purchased Assets at the Repurchase Price shall thereupon become immediately due and payable, (ii) all Income paid after such exercise or deemed exercise shall be retained by Buyer and applied, in Buyer’s sole discretion, to the Repurchase Price and any other amounts owing by Seller Parties hereunder, and (iii) Seller Parties shall immediately deliver to Buyer the Asset Files and Purchased Asset Documents relating to any Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans subject to such Transactions then in any Seller Party’s possession or control.

c. Buyer also shall have the right to obtain physical possession, and to commence an action to obtain physical possession, of all Records and files of Seller Parties relating to the Purchased Assets, the Contributed Crop Loans and all documents relating thereto (including, without limitation, any legal, credit or servicing files with respect to the Purchased Assets and/or the Contributed Crop Loans) which are then or may thereafter come in to the possession of a Seller Party or any third party acting for a

Seller Party. Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Buyer for any Seller Party’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, each Seller Party acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages.

d. Buyer shall have the right to direct all servicers then servicing any Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans to remit all collections thereon to Buyer, and if any such payments are received by a Seller Party, Seller Parties shall not commingle the amounts received with other funds of such Seller Party and shall promptly pay them over to Buyer. Buyer shall also have the right to terminate any one or all of the servicers then servicing any Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans with or without cause. In addition, Buyer shall have the right to immediately sell the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans and liquidate all Repurchase Assets. Such disposition of Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans may be, at Buyer’s option, on either a servicing-released or a servicing-retained basis. Buyer shall not be required to give any warranties as to the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans with respect to any such disposition thereof. Buyer may specifically disclaim or modify any warranties of title or the like relating to the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans. The foregoing procedure for disposition of the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans and liquidation of the Repurchase Assets shall not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale thereof. Each Seller Party agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Buyer to dispose of the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans or the Repurchase Assets or any portion thereof by using Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets similar to the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans or the Repurchase Assets, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets. Buyer shall also be entitled to sell any or all of such Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans individually for the prevailing price. Buyer shall also be entitled, in its sole discretion to elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans, to give the Seller Parties credit for such Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans and the Repurchase Assets in an amount equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Price or Release Price, as applicable, and any other amounts owing by the Seller Parties hereunder.

e. Upon the occurrence and continuation of one or more Events of Default, Buyer may apply any proceeds from the liquidation of the Purchased Assets and/or Contributed Crop Loans and Repurchase Assets to the Repurchase Price and the Release Prices hereunder, respectively and all other Obligations in the manner Buyer deems appropriate in its sole discretion.

f. Each Seller Party shall be liable to Buyer for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses including, without limitation, all costs and expenses of Buyer in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other agreement evidencing a Transaction, whether in action, suit or litigation or bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally, further including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of external counsel incurred in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) actual damages in an amount equal to the cost (including all fees, expenses and commissions) of entering into replacement transactions and entering into or terminating hedge transactions in connection with or as a result of an Event of Default, and (iii) any other loss, damage, cost or expense directly arising or resulting from the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of a Transaction.

g. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Seller Party shall be liable to Buyer for interest on any amounts owing by Seller Parties hereunder, from the date such Seller Party becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by Seller Parties or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of Buyer’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by Seller Parties under this Section 16(g) shall be at a rate equal to the Post Default Rate.

h. [reserved].

i. Buyer may exercise one or more of the remedies available to Buyer immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and, except to the extent provided in subsection (a) of this Section, at any time thereafter without notice to the Seller Parties. All rights and remedies arising under this Agreement as amended from time to time hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which Buyer may have.

j. Buyer may enforce its rights and remedies hereunder without prior judicial process or hearing, and each Seller Party hereby expressly waives any defenses such Seller Party might otherwise have to require Buyer to enforce its rights by judicial process. Each Seller Party also waives any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance) such Seller Party might otherwise have arising from the use of nonjudicial process, enforcement and sale of all or any portion of the Repurchase Assets, or from any other election of remedies. Each Seller Party recognizes that nonjudicial remedies are consistent with the usages of the trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm’s length.

k. [reserved].

l. The Seller Parties recognize that the Buyer may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets and/or the Contributed Crop Loans. Each Seller Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the Buyer than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Seller Parties further agree that to the extent Buyer provides Seller Parties with at least [***] prior notice of any sale, such notice shall be deemed to be commercially reasonable.

m. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Assets delivered to Buyer by Seller Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Agreement, in no event shall the Purchased Assets or the Contributed Crop Loans remain in the custody of any Seller Party or any Affiliate thereof.

17. Reports

a. Notices.

Accordingly, each of Buyer and Seller Parties agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in respect of all Transactions hereunder, and (ii) that payments, deliveries and other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments, deliveries and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

21. Entire Agreement; Severability

This Agreement shall supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.

22. Non-assignability

(a) The Transaction Documents are not assignable by any Seller Party or Guarantor without prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer may from time to time assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents to any Person that is a QIB; provided, however that Buyer shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, for review and inspection by Seller at any reasonable time and from time to time upon written request, a register of the names and addresses of assignees (the “Register”) and a copy of an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Seller Parties, Guarantor and Buyer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the preceding sentence as Buyer hereunder. Upon such assignment and recordation in the Register, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Transaction Document to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder, as applicable, and (b) Buyer shall be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Transaction Documents. Any assignment hereunder shall be deemed a joinder of such assignee as Buyer hereto. Unless otherwise stated in the Assignment and Acceptance, Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Buyer in writing. Buyer may distribute to any prospective or actual assignee this Agreement, any Transaction Document and any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller Parties.

(b) Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, (i) Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) the Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Buyer may distribute to any prospective or actual participant this Agreement, any Transaction Document and any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller Parties.

(c) Each Seller Party and Guarantor agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11(b), and Section 11(e) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 11(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 11(e)(6) shall be delivered to the participating Buyer)) to the same extent as if it were Buyer and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 22; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 11(b) or Section 11(e), with respect to any participation, than its participating Buyer would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any applicable law or in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. Buyer shall maintain, solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Seller, for review and inspection by Seller at any reasonable time and from time to time upon written request, a register of the names and addresses of each participating Buyer (the “Participant Register”) and a copy of an executed participation agreement by Buyer and such participating Buyer (a “Participation Agreement”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations sold under a Participation Agreement. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Seller Parties, Guarantor and Buyer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the preceding sentence as Buyer hereunder. Upon such transfer and recordation in the Participation Register, such participant shall be a party hereto and to each Transaction Document to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Participation Agreement.

(d) The Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 22, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, as the case may be, this Agreement, any Transaction Document and any information relating to Seller Parties, Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller Parties; provided that such assignee or participant agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement.

23. Set-off

Upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to any Seller Party or Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Seller Parties or Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Seller Parties or Guarantor hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount from Seller Parties, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller Parties, Guarantor or any Affiliate thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Buyer agrees promptly to notify Seller and the Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

24. Binding Effect; Governing Law; Jurisdiction

a. This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Seller Parties acknowledge that the obligations of Buyer hereunder or otherwise are not the subject of any guaranty by, or recourse to, any direct or indirect parent or other Affiliate of Buyer. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

b. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY, OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY SUBMITS TO, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THEY MAY HAVE TO, EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY COURT IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY OR IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS.

25. No Waivers, Etc.

No express or implied waiver of any Event of Default by either party shall constitute a waiver of any other Event of Default and no exercise of any remedy hereunder by any party shall constitute a waiver of its right to exercise any other remedy hereunder. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent by any party to a departure herefrom shall be effective unless and until such shall be in writing and duly executed by all parties hereto. Without limitation on any of the foregoing, the failure to give a notice pursuant to Section 6(a), 17(a) or otherwise, will not constitute a waiver of any right to do so at a later date.

26. Intent

a. The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended, and a “master netting agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101(38A)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code, that all payments hereunder are deemed “margin payments” or “settlement payments” as defined in Title 11 of the United States Code, and that the pledge of the Repurchase Assets constitutes “a security agreement or arrangement or other credit enhancement” that is “related to” the Agreement and Transactions hereunder within the meaning of Sections 101(38A)(A) and 741(7)(A)(xi) of the Bankruptcy Code. Seller Parties and Buyer further recognizes and intend that this Agreement is an agreement to provide financial accommodations and is not subject to assumption pursuant to Bankruptcy Code Section 365(a).

b. Buyer’s right to liquidate the Purchased Assets and the Contributed Crop Loans delivered to it in connection with the Transactions hereunder or to accelerate or terminate this Agreement or otherwise exercise any other remedies pursuant to Section 16 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate, accelerate or terminate such Transaction as described in Bankruptcy Code Sections 555 and 561; any payments or transfers of property made with respect to this Agreement or any Transaction to satisfy a Margin Deficit shall be considered a “margin payment” as such term is defined in Bankruptcy Code Section 741(5).

c. The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable).

d. It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDICIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA).

e. This Agreement is intended to be a “securities contract,” within the meaning of Section 101(47), Section 362(b)(6), Section 555 and Section 741 under the Bankruptcy Code.

f. Each party agrees that this Agreement is intended to create mutuality of obligations among the parties, and as such, the Agreement constitutes a contract which (i) is between all of the parties and (ii) places each party in the same right and capacity.

27. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections

The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:

a. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the 1934 Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the SIPA do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder;

b. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SIPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and

c. in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the FDIC or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable.

28. Power of Attorney

Each Seller Party hereby authorizes Buyer to file such financing statement or statements relating to the Repurchase Assets without any Seller Party’s signature thereon as Buyer, at its option, may deem appropriate. Each Seller Party hereby appoints Buyer as such Seller Party’s agent and attorney-in-fact to (i) execute any such financing statement or statements in such Seller Party’s name and to perform all other acts which Buyer deems appropriate to perfect and continue its ownership interest in and/or the security interest granted hereby, if applicable, and to protect, preserve and realize upon the Repurchase Assets, including, but not limited to, the right to indorse notes, complete blanks in documents, transfer servicing, and sign assignments on behalf of such Seller Party as its agent and attorney-in-fact and (ii) to pay or discharge Taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Repurchase Assets. This agency and power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable without Buyer’s consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the power of attorney hereby granted may be exercised only during the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default hereunder. Seller shall pay the filing costs for any financing statement or statements prepared pursuant to this Section 28. In addition to the foregoing, each Seller Party agrees to execute a Power of Attorney, in the form of Exhibit C-1 and Exhibit C-2 hereto, to be delivered on the date hereof.

29. Indemnification; Obligations; Recourse

a. Each Seller Party and Guarantor agrees to hold Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates and Buyer’s and Buyer’s Affiliates” respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify each Indemnified Party (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same is incurred) against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel in connection therewith and in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification obligation) of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Transaction Request and Confirmation, any Transaction Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby resulting from anything other than the Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Seller Parties and Guarantor also agree to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy provided for herein, any Transaction Request and Confirmation and any Transaction Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel. Each Seller Party’s and Guarantor’s agreements in this Section 29 shall survive the payment in full of the Repurchase Price and the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Each Seller Party and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are recourse obligations of Seller Parties and Guarantor and are not limited to recoveries each Indemnified Party may have with respect to the Purchased Assets and the Contributed Crop Loans. Seller Parties and Guarantor also agree not to assert any claim against Buyer, or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the facility established hereunder, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Transactions, this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated thereby. This Section 29(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent liabilities, losses, damages, costs, or expenses arising

from any non-Tax claim. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO ASSERT CLAIMS EXPRESSLY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE NEGLIGENCE (BUT NOT GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT) OF THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES AS DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION.

b. Without limiting the provisions of Section 29(a) hereof, if any Seller Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under this Agreement, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of a Seller Party by Buyer (subject to reimbursement by Seller Party), in its sole discretion.

c. The obligations of the Seller Parties from time to time to pay the Repurchase Price, Release Price, the Price Differential, and all other amounts due and Obligations owing under this Agreement shall be full recourse obligations of the Seller Parties.
