The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Paying Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each assignment or transfer evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement executed pursuant to Section 9.03(e) shall be recorded in the Register, and no assignment or transfer shall be effective until such assignment or transfer shall have been recorded in the Register by the Administrative Agent as provided in this subsection. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Paying Agent with a copy of the Register at closing and after any assignments or transfers have been recorded in the Register. In making any distributions to Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, the Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely on the Register most recently provided to the Paying Agent by the Administrative Agent and it shall be the responsibility of the Administrative Agent to provide the Paying Agent with an updated copy of the Register in the event there are any assignments or transfers. |
(b) Interest. Interest will accrue daily on the Loan Amount of each Lender at the applicable Interest Rate for such Lender as in effect from time to time, and will be computed for each Interest Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year. Accrued and unpaid interest for each Interest Period will be payable on each Settlement Date as set forth in the Monthly Invoice except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest shall accrue on all Obligations at the Interest Rate calculated with the inclusion of the Default Margin (as set forth in the definition thereof) and shall be payable upon demand. |
(c) Maximum Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the interest payable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum rate permissible under applicable law. Accordingly, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event any interest is charged to, collected from or received from or on behalf of the Borrower by the Lenders pursuant hereto in excess of such maximum lawful rate, then the excess of such payment over that maximum shall be applied first to the payment of amounts then due and owing by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than in respect of principal or interest on the Loans) and then to the reduction of the outstanding principal of the Loans. |
(d) Unused Fee. The Unused Fee due to each Committed Lender shall accrue daily from (and including) the execution of this Agreement through (and excluding) the Commitment Termination Date, and will be computed for each Interest Period on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360-day year; provided, however, that no amount shall be due hereunder in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law. Accrued and unpaid Unused Fee for each Interest Period will be payable on each Settlement Date as set forth in the Monthly Invoice except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The Unused Fee paid to any Committed Lender is non-refundable under any circumstances. |
(b) Increased Capital Costs. If any Lender or Related Person determines that any Regulatory Requirement regarding liquidity or the amount of capital required or reasonably expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Related Person has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender or such Related Person to a level below that which such Lender or such Related Person could have achieved but for such Regulatory Requirement, or would otherwise result in the imposition of an internal capital or liquidity charge on such Lender or such Related Person, which, in the reasonable discretion of such Lender or such Related Person with respect to any of the foregoing, is allocable to the Borrower, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any Commitment or Loan hereunder (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such Related Person with respect to capital adequacy, liquidity coverage and allocations among customers), then from time to time either (x) within 10 days of demand thereof (if paid directly to such Lender by the Borrower from funds other than Collections) or (y) on the next Settlement Date after such tenth day if no direct payment was made (from Collections held in the Collection Account in accordance with the Priority of Payments), the Borrower will pay to the Lender, on behalf of such Lender or any such Related Person, a fee equal to such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Related Person for any such reduction in its rate of return or the imposition of such capital or liquidity charge. |
(c) Timing and Details of Demands. Each demand made pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be provided by a Lender to the Borrower in writing and shall state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower. In determining the amount owed by the Borrower under this Section 2.07, any applicable Lender or Related Person may use any method of averaging and attribution that it shall reasonably deem applicable so long as it applies such method to other similar transactions. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Related Person to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall not constitute a waiver of any such Lender or Related Persons right to compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender or Related Person pursuant to this Section 2.07 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or Related Person notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Requirement giving rise thereto; provided further that, if such Regulatory Requirement is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to in the preceding proviso shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. |
(b) Indemnified Tax Gross-up; Failure to Pay. If any Indemnified Taxes are directly asserted against any Lender with respect to any payment received by such Lender or its agent, such Lender or such agent may pay such Indemnified Taxes and the Borrower will promptly upon receipt of prior written notice stating the amount of such Indemnified Taxes pay such additional amounts as is necessary in order for the net amount received by such Person after the payment of such Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Lender would have received had such Indemnified Taxes not been asserted. If the Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to a Lender or its agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify such Lender, its Affiliates and its agent, if any, for any Indemnified Taxes and incremental Indemnified Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by such Lender or its agent as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 2.08, a distribution hereunder by the agent for a Lender shall be deemed a payment by such Lender. |
(d) Withholding Tax Exemption. The Paying Agent or any Lender, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such documentation prescribed by Requirements of Law or otherwise reasonably requested with respect to any applicable exemption from withholding Tax and with respect to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. |
(e) 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 2.08 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08), 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 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 (e) (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 (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (e) 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. |
SECTION 2.10 Designation of Different Lending Office. If any Lender or a Related Person thereof requests compensation under Section 2.07, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender, a Related Person thereof or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or a Related Person thereof pursuant to Section 2.08, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.08, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender or such Related Person to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such Related Person. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. |
SECTION 2.12 Illegality; Substituted Interest Rates. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, (a) if any applicable Requirements of Law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for a Lender (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate) to make or maintain any Loan at the LIBOR rate as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, or (b) in the event that any Lender (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate), or the Administrative Agent on behalf of all such Lenders, shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that by reason of circumstances affecting the LIBOR interbank market neither adequate nor reasonable means exist for ascertaining the LIBOR rate, or (c) Majority Lenders (excluding any Conduit Lender that uses the CP Rate as its Benchmark Rate), or the Administrative Agent on behalf of all such Lenders, shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error) that the applicable LIBOR rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of maintaining or funding the Loans, as applicable, based on such applicable LIBOR rate (provided that the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall only make such determination if the published LIBOR rate used by such Lender does not (or by the Lenders do not) accurately reflect the actual LIBOR rate), then (x) the obligation of such Lender (or, if applicable, all affected Lenders) to make or maintain the Loans at the LIBOR rate shall forthwith be suspended and such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (by telephone confirmed in writing) and (y) each affected Loan then outstanding, if any, shall, from and including the date that is forty five (45) days after the Borrowers receipt of notice from such Lender or the Administrative Agent of the occurrence of any condition set forth in clause (a), (b) or (c), or at such earlier date as may be required by law, until payment in full thereof, bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) the Interest Rate calculated using the Prime Rate as the Benchmark Rate rather than LIBOR, and (ii) the Interest Rate in effect on the date immediately preceding the date any event described in clause (a), (b) or (c) occurred (calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days). If subsequent to such suspension of the obligation of a Lender or the applicable Lenders to make or maintain the Loans using LIBOR as the Benchmark Rate, the circumstances that resulted in such suspension no longer exist, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall so notify the Borrower and the previous method to determine the Interest Rate (without application of this Section) shall be reinstated effective as of the date that such circumstances no longer exist with respect to such Lender or the applicable Lenders. |
(a) Payment and Deposit of Collections. Subject to subsection (b) of this Section, the Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, instruct and cause the Obligors of Purchased Receivables to send all Scheduled Payments and other amounts due thereunder directly to the Servicer and cause all ACH debits from an Obligors bank account to be remitted to the Servicers servicing account, subject to the rights under the Servicing Agreement to retain a Collection Agent or sub-servicer. All Collections or other proceeds of Collateral received by the Servicer, Borrower, any other LC Group Member, any Collection Agent, or any other sub-servicer or agent of any of them, shall be transferred to the Collection Account within the Designated Business Days of receipt thereof; provided, that all such Collections and proceeds shall be held in trust for and on behalf of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, until deposited into the Collection Account. |
(c) Seller Repurchases. The Borrower shall cause the Seller to deposit into the Collection Account the Repurchase Price for all Purchased Receivables repurchased by the Seller pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement on the applicable date for such repurchase as set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, or on the alternative payment date (if any) set forth in and pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.01(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, as long as LendingClub is then acting as Servicer and there is no Default, Event of Default, Seller Default, or Servicer Default that has occurred and is continuing: |
(iv) at the sole option of the Seller, any Purchased Receivable required to be repurchased pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement may instead by retained by the Borrower as an Excluded Receivable as long as there is no Borrowing Base Deficiency (as determined immediately after such Receivable is categorized as an Excluded Receivable under this subsection). |
(d) Reserve Account Transfers. If any Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.05(a) identifies that either (i) there are insufficient Available Funds then on deposit in the Collection Account to make all distributions in full pursuant to Sections 3.02(a)(i) through (vii) on the related Settlement Date, or (ii) after giving effect to all distributions to be made on such Settlement Date, the amount on deposit in the Reserve Account will exceed the Required Reserve Account Amount, then on the applicable Settlement Date, prior to making any distributions pursuant to Section 3.02, the Paying Agent (solely in accordance with the Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate) shall transfer from the Reserve Account into the Collection Account, the amount of such identified shortfall in Available Funds or identified excess in Reserve Account funds, as the case may be, up to the amount of funds then on deposit in the Reserve Account, for distribution on such Settlement Date as Available Funds pursuant to Section 3.02. On the earlier of the Final Maturity Date and the date on or after the Commitment Termination Date on which the Aggregate Loan Amount has been reduced to zero, all amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be transferred by the Account Bank, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, from the Reserve Account to the Collection Account for distribution as Available Funds pursuant to Section 3.02; provided that if the Reserve Account Termination Date occurs prior to such date, all amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account shall be transferred by the Account Bank, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, from the Reserve Account to the Borrowers Designated Account. |
(e) Reserve Account Supplemental Deposits. If the Required Reserve Account Deposit Amount is positive on any Business Day (after giving effect to any Advances, prepayments, or distributions to be made on such Business Day), the Borrower shall remit to the Paying Agent, for immediate deposit into the Reserve Account, an amount equal to such Required Reserve Account Deposit Amount. |
(a) Monthly Distributions. Subject to subsection (b) and (c) of this Section, on each Settlement Date, based on the Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate, the Paying Agent shall make the following distributions (without duplication) in the following order of priority (such order of priority, as may be modified by subsection (c) of this Section following an Event of Default, the Priority of Payments) to the extent of Available Funds on deposit in the Collection Account (and, if there are insufficient Available Funds to make any distribution under any particular clause in full, pro rata to each Person entitled to a distribution pursuant to such clause, as determined based on the maximum amount that could be distributable to each such Person under such clause): |
(i) first, pro rata to each Agent, the Custodian, and the Account Bank (to the extent not deducted from the Collection Account or Reserve Account), all accrued but unpaid fees, reimbursable expenses, and indemnity amounts owed to such Person in such capacity under any Transaction Document or any related fee letter; provided, that no Person shall receive cumulative distributions (for all applicable Settlement Dates in any calendar year) under this priority first for expenses and indemnity amounts in excess of [***]* (provided that no such annual limit shall be applicable upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default); |
(ii) second, to the Servicer, an amount equal to the Servicing Fee with respect to the preceding Collection Period (and any unpaid Servicing Fee from any prior Collection Period), and if such Servicer is a successor Servicer, all accrued but unpaid fees (without duplication of the Servicing Fee), reimbursable expenses, and indemnity amounts owed to such Person in such capacity under any Transaction Document or any related fee letter; provided, that no Person shall receive cumulative distributions (for all applicable Settlement Dates in any calendar year) under this priority second for expenses and indemnity amounts in excess of [***]*; |
(iii) third, to the Backup Servicer (with respect to amounts owed, without duplication, to the Backup Servicer or the Sub-Backup Servicer, but solely if any such Person is not then acting as successor Servicer and, if applicable, on a pari passu basis as between the primary Backup Servicer and any Sub- Backup Servicer) with respect to the preceding Collection Period, an amount equal to the Backup Servicing Fee, any reasonable expenses incurred in connection with transitioning the servicing to the Backup Servicer (including counsel fees and expenses), indemnity amounts and any other amounts due to the Backup Servicer for such Collection Period pursuant to the Backup Servicing Agreement, and any of the foregoing that remains unpaid from prior Collection Periods; provided, that no Person shall receive cumulative distributions (for all applicable Settlement Dates in any calendar year) under this priority third for obligations other than scheduled fees and transition expenses (which Transition Costs shall not exceed [***]*, including boarding fees) in excess of [***]* (provided that no such annual limit shall be applicable upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default); |
(ix) ninth, to each of the Secured Parties, all other fees, expenses, indemnity payments, and other Obligations due and owing (not paid pursuant to any of the preceding clauses, including amounts not paid under any higher priority as a result of any applicable annual limitation or cap for payments of that type under such higher priority) to such Secured Party by the Borrower; and |
(c) Distributions Following an Event of Default. Notwithstanding the terms of subsection (a) of this Section, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) the Collateral Trustee shall deposit the proceeds of all Collateral into the Collection Account (or such other account as has been designated by the Administrative Agent), and (ii) the Paying Agent shall apply all funds on deposit in the Collection Account or the Reserve Account (and the Administrative Agent shall apply all Collections and other Borrower funds on deposit in any such other account) to any outstanding Obligations in any order of priority as directed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion; provided, that, solely as among the Agents, no Agent or other third party shall have a distribution priority that is lower than the priority set forth in subsection (a) above unless such Agent has provided its prior written approval thereof. |
(d) No Tax or Legal Advice. [***]*, its Affiliates, and their respective employees are not in the business of providing tax or legal advice to any taxpayer outside of [***]* and its Affiliates. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, and any amendments or attachments hereto or thereto are not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used or relied upon, by the Lender, the Borrower, any other Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other taxpayer as legal or tax advice or for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties. Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayers particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor. |
(a) Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate. No later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall cause the Servicer to deliver to the Paying Agent, the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly make such information available to the Lenders in accordance with its customary practice) and the Backup Servicer, a copy of the Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate executed by an Authorized Officer of the Servicer substantially in the form of Exhibit G, which shall contain: (i) instructions with respect to the specific distributions to be made by the Paying Agent from Available Funds to each Person entitled thereto (or for deposit into the Reserve Account) on the related Settlement Date pursuant to Section 3.02(a); (ii) identification of any amount to be transferred from the Reserve Account into the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.01(d); (iii) a certification that, as of such date and as of the Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions and transfers contemplated on such date), each of the Borrower, Seller and Servicer is and will be Solvent and no Event of Default, Default, Seller Default, Servicer Default or event that, with the giving of notice or passage of time or both, would become a Seller Default or a Servicer Default, has occurred or will occur as of such Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions and transfers contemplated on such date), or describing any of the foregoing that has occurred and the steps being taken as a result thereof; (iv) all information required pursuant to the Backup Servicing Agreement or necessary to enable the Backup Servicer to verify the information specified in the Backup Servicing Agreement (if any); (v) attaching a Borrowing Base Certificate, dated and current as of the close of business on the date preceding the delivery date for such Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate set forth above, and showing as of such date and on a pro forma basis as of the Settlement Date (after giving effect to all distributions, transfers and other activity to occur on such Settlement Date), the calculation of the Eligible Pool Balance, Excess Concentration Amount, and Borrowing Base; (vi) attaching a Data File, and (vi) attaching a detailed Portfolio Report providing (A) collections activity with respect to the Collateral for the immediately preceding Collection Period, (B) a detailed calculation of (1) the Delinquency Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding Collection Period and the three-month average of the Delinquency Ratios as of the last day of the three most recent Collection Periods; (2) the Vintage Loss Percentage (including, without limitation, each component thereof set forth on Schedule II) as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period, (3) the Cohort Loss Value determined pursuant to the Model used to calculate the Advance Rate and the other applicable data (including, without limitation, with respect to any applicable adjustments forming part of such Advance Rate calculation) used in such Model (as referred to in Schedule II), and (4) the income verification percentage of Eligible Receivables that are Purchased Receivables as of the last day of the preceding Collection Period; (C) all other information needed by the Agents or Lenders for performance management and regulatory capital review, and (D) a certification as to the truth and accuracy of the foregoing, and that no Amortization Event has occurred (or reasonable detail with respect to any Amortization Event that has occurred); (viii) containing the Supplemental Information and Certification; and (ix) containing such other information as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, immediately notify the Administrative Agent and Paying Agent if any such pro forma information or calculations fail to be true as of the applicable Settlement Date, together with corrected and updated information and calculations as of such Settlement Date. |
(b) Lender Access to Information. The Administrative Agent may, at its option, make available to the Lenders via email, ftp site or internet website, all statements, reports and other information in its possession received under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Administrative Agent makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of such documents and will assume no responsibility therefor. In connection with providing access to any ftp or internet website, the Administrative Agent may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer and such site may be password-protected. None of the Administrative Agent, Paying Agent or Collateral Trustee shall be liable for the dissemination of information in accordance with this Agreement. |
SECTION 4.01 Representations and Warranties of the Borrower. The Borrower makes the following representations and warranties, on which each Lender relies in funding each Advance, on which each Agent relies in entering into and continuing to perform under this Agreement, and on which the Collateral Trustee relies in receiving a security interest in the Purchased Receivables and the other Collateral. Such representations and warranties of the Borrower are made as of the date of this Agreement, as of each Advance Date (after giving effect to the funding of the applicable Advance), and as of each Prepayment/Release Date on which there is a Release (after giving effect thereto), unless such representation or warranty expressly refers to an earlier date, in which case it is made on such date with respect to such earlier date. The representations and warranties shall survive execution of this Agreement, the granting of Liens under the Security Agreement, the funding of each Advance and the Release of any Liens (but excluding with respect to any Receivables subject to such Release following the release of the Lien thereon). |
(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Borrower is (i) a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and (ii) except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, is in good standing with every Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over its activities. |
(d) No Lien on Purchased Assets. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which the Borrower is party, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, nor compliance with the terms and conditions hereof or thereof, will result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Purchased Receivable or other Purchased Assets except in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. |
(f) No Proceedings. There is no litigation, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against the Borrower, before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or other Governmental Authority (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement, or any other the Transaction Document to which the Borrower is a party, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) seeking to prevent the incurrence of indebtedness by the Borrower hereunder, or (iii) that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. |
(g) Regulations T, U and X. No proceeds of any Advance will be used, directly or indirectly, by the Borrower for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry Margin Stock or for any other purpose which might cause any Loan to be a purpose credit within the meaning of Regulation U. Neither the making of any Loan hereunder, nor the use of the proceeds thereof, will violate or otherwise conflict with the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. |
(h) Investment Company Act and Volcker Rule Representations. (i) The Borrower is not a covered fund under Section 13 of the U.S. Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the implementing regulations therefor (the Volcker Rule), and is making the determination that it is not a covered fund in reliance on the exemption from the definition of investment company provided by Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act, although there may be additional exclusions or exemptions available to the Borrower; (ii) the Borrower is not, and immediately after giving effect to the transactions completed on the Closing Date hereunder will not be, required to register as an investment company or a company controlled by an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act; and (iii) the Purchased Receivables and other assets included in the Collateral are eligible assets as defined in Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act. Each Loan is an eligible asset as defined in Rule 3a-7 of the Investment Company Act. |
(i) Full Disclosure. The information contained herein, in any other Transaction Document, and in any Advance Notice, Prepayment/Release Notice, Servicers Monthly Settlement Certificate, Borrowing Base Certificate, Data File (including the loan identification number, Receivable Balance, rating, term, interest rate, origination date and Purchase Date of any Purchased Receivable), and any other report, financial statement, exhibit, schedule, officers certificate, instrument, or document furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or Servicer to any Lender, any Agent, or the Backup Servicer under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, are and shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of projections or other forward looking information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made (it being understood that such projected financial information is subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, any of which are beyond the Borrowers control, that no assurance can be given that any particular projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projected financial information may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material)) on the date as of which such information is stated or certified (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished and when taken as a whole) and do not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein contained, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect. |
(i) Immediately prior to the transfer to the Seller, the Originator had good and marketable title to and was the sole legal owner of each Receivable that has become a Purchased Receivable; the Seller validly purchased each such Receivable from the Originator, free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens), pursuant to the Originator Program Documents; the transfer of such Receivables pursuant to the Originator Program Documents constitutes a true sale thereof from the Originator to the Seller; and the ownership interest of the Seller in each such Receivable is a valid, perfected, and continuing, first priority Security Interest therein that is effective against creditors of and transferees from the Originator; the Originator has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any Receivable that has become a Purchased Receivable to any Person other than the Seller; all of the foregoing with respect to the Receivables that became Purchased Receivables applies equally to any other Purchased Assets and Collateral that were subject to the Originator Program Documents. |
(iv) There are no judgment or tax lien filings against the Originator, the Seller or the Borrower; the Originator, the Seller and the Borrower each received all consents and approvals required by the terms of any Receivable Documents governing any Purchased Receivables to the Security Interest granted in (and, in the case of the Originator and the Seller, the sale of) the Purchased Receivables by such Person pursuant to the Transaction Documents. |
(vi) No effective financing statement naming any Originator, the Seller or the Borrower as debtor or seller covering any Purchased Receivable or other Collateral is on file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the state of organization of the Originator, or any other jurisdiction, and no such filing has been authorized by the Originator, the Seller, or the Borrower, other than the filings described in clause (vii) hereof. |
(vii) Financing statements have been filed in with the Secretary of State of the State of organization of the debtor against (A) the Originator, as debtor/seller, in favor of the Seller, as secured party/purchaser; (B) the Seller, as debtor/seller, in favor of the Borrower, as assignor/secured party/purchaser, and assigned to the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as assignee secured party, and (C) the Borrower, as debtor, in favor of the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as secured party, that, in each such case, describe or cover the Purchased Receivables and other Purchased Assets as collateral thereunder. All of the foregoing financing statements remain duly filed with the Secretary of State of the State of organization of the debtor named therein. No such filing has been assigned to any other Person or terminated. All amendments to the financing statements listed in this paragraph that are necessary (and only such amendments that are necessary) to continue the perfection of the secured party (or assignee secured party, as applicable) listed therein in the Purchased Receivables and other Purchased Assets under the applicable UCC have been made (such as in connection with a debtor name change, if applicable). |
(viii) The Account Control Agreement creates a valid and perfected continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Reserve Account (prior to a Reserve Account Termination Date) and the Collection Account in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, which security interest is prior to all other Liens. If any Purchased Receivable is evidenced by an electronic instrument, electronic chattel paper, or transferrable record, the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has control of the sole authoritative copy thereof, which is held by the Custodian, pursuant to the Collateral Control Agreement in accordance with applicable Electronic Receivables Laws or the UCC, as applicable. No Person other than the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has been given control (within the meaning of any applicable Electronic Receivables Laws or the UCC) of any Promissory Note or other Receivables Documents evidencing any Purchased Receivable or any deposit account owned by the Borrower. |
(m) Eligible Receivables. All of the Purchased Receivables have been selected from the Prime or Near Prime programs of Seller and, if included in the Borrowing Base on any Borrower Base Certificate or designated as Eligible Receivables on any Data File, such Purchased Receivables shall be Eligible Receivables as of the date of delivery of such Borrowing Base Certificate (or the date specified thereon). The Borrower shall not make purchases from any program other than the Prime or Near Prime programs of Seller without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower has (itself or through the Servicer) conducted such due diligence and other review as it considered necessary with respect to the Purchased Receivables and other Collateral to make the representations and warranties herein set forth. |
(n) No Fraudulent Conveyance. As of the Closing Date and immediately after giving effect to each Advance, the Borrower is and will be Solvent, does and intends to pay its debts as they mature. The Borrower does not intend to incur, or believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. The Borrower is not in default under any material obligation to pay money to any Person. The Borrower is not contemplating the commencement of Insolvency Proceedings or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, conservator, trustee or similar official in respect of the Borrower or any of its assets. The Borrower is not transferring any Collateral with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors. The Borrower will not use the proceeds from any Advance to give any preference to any creditor or class of creditors. The Borrower has given fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the sale or transfer to the Borrower of the Purchased Receivables by the Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Seller has given fair consideration and reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the sale of to the Seller the Receivables by Originator under the Originator Program Documents. |
(p) No Other Business. (x) The Borrower engages in no business activities other than the purchase or acquisition of the Receivables, Receivable Document Packages and other related Purchased Assets, and proceeds of the foregoing in the ordinary course of its business, sale or other disposition of the Receivables, Receivable Document Packages and other Purchased Assets and proceeds of the foregoing in the ordinary course of its business, financing its purchase or acquisition of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement, pledging the Purchased Assets and other Collateral under the Transaction Documents, transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, and other activities relating to the foregoing to the extent permitted by the Borrower Organizational Documents. (y) Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower is not a borrower under any loan or financing agreement, facility or other arrangement other than the Facility established pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Borrower is not party to any agreement, covenant or undertaking that restricts the power or authority of the Borrower, acting without the consent of any other Person, to amend, waive or otherwise modify any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. |
(i) Schedule VIII sets forth each Plan and Multiemployer Plan as of the Closing Date. Each Plan is in compliance in form and operation with its terms and with applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code (including without limitation the Code provisions compliance with which is necessary for any intended favorable tax treatment) and all other applicable laws and regulations, except where any failure to comply could not result in material liability. Each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code covering all applicable tax law changes or is comprised of a master or prototype plan that has received a favorable opinion letter from the IRS, and, nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that would adversely affect such determination (or, in the case of a Plan with no determination, nothing has occurred that would materially adversely affect the issuance of a favorable determination letter or otherwise materially adversely affect such qualification). No ERISA Event has occurred, or is reasonably expected to occur, other than as could not, individually or in the aggregate, result in material liability. |
(iii) None of the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any ERISA Affiliate is making or accruing an obligation to make contributions, or has within any of the five calendar years immediately preceding the date this assurance is given or deemed given, made or accrued an obligation to make contributions to any Multiemployer Plan. |
(v) The Borrower, any Subsidiary and any ERISA Affiliate have made all contributions to or under each Plan and Multiemployer Plan required by law within the applicable time limits prescribed thereby, the terms of such Plan or Multiemployer Plan, respectively, or any contract or agreement requiring contributions to a Plan or Multiemployer Plan save where any failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in material liability. |
(s) Compliance with Law. Each of the Borrower, the Seller, and the Servicer (i) are in compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law, including all applicable AML-BSA Laws (as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement); and (ii) are in compliance with each and every order of any Governmental Authority or other board or tribunal, except, in each case, where any such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. |
(t) Tax Matters. The Borrower has paid and discharged, and has caused LendingClub to pay and discharge, all material Taxes and governmental charges upon it or against any of its properties or assets or its income prior to the date after which penalties attach for failure to pay, except to the extent that (i) such Person has been contesting in good faith in appropriate proceedings its obligation to pay such Taxes or charges, (ii) adequate reserves having been set aside for the payment thereof in accordance with GAAP, and (iii) such failure to pay could not give rise to a tax lien on any Collateral (other than Liens described in clause (iii) in the definition of Permitted Liens). The Borrower is a disregarded entity that is wholly owned by a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code for federal income tax purposes and no election has been made or will be made to treat the Borrower as a corporation or an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. |
(u) Compliance with Anti-Bribery Laws. Neither the Borrower nor any other LC Group Member nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower or such other LC Group Member, any Affiliate, director, officer, agent, or employee of the Borrower or such other LC Group Member, or any other Person acting on behalf of the Borrower or any other LC Group Member is aware of or has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that could result in a violation or a sanction for violation by such persons of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 or the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, each as may be amended, or similar law of any other relevant jurisdiction, or the rules or regulations thereunder; and the Borrower and each other LC Group Member has instituted and maintain policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the foregoing. No part of the proceeds of the Advances will be used, directly or indirectly, in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 or the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, each as may be amended, or similar law of any other relevant jurisdiction, or the rules or regulations thereunder. |
SECTION 4.02 No Waiver.
