Trustee have entered into an Indenture, dated as of
(the “Indenture”), governing the terms of [FORM OF SECURITY ISSUED BY
TRUST] and granting to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the
[FORM OF SECURITY INTEREST ISSUED BY TRUST] a security interest in the
Unguaranteed Interest.
SBA Rules and Regulations require the SBA Lender to obtain SBA’s written consent before it sells the Unguaranteed Interest to the Trust.
The SBA Lender, the Trust, the Indenture Trustee, and SBA want to assure consistency between the SBA Agreements, the Trust Agreement and the Indenture and clarify the respective rights of the parties.

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(a), SBA may, at its option, assume servicing of any SBA Lender Loan in accordance with SBA Rules and
Regulations.
(g) If SBA becomes the successor Servicer or becomes the servicer with respect to any particular SBA Lender Loan in which the Unguaranteed Interest is included in the Trust Fund (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), (i) SBA shall have no obligation to perform any duties or comply with any obligations of the Servicer hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement if such performance or compliance would violate the
- 13 -
SBA Rules and Regulations in any respect and (ii) except as specifically set forth in this
Agreement, SBA’s performance of any duties or compliance with any obligations of the Servicer hereunder or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will be within SBA’s sole discretion.

10. Default Under Pooling and Servicing Agreement and Indenture. The
Indenture Trustee will give SBA written notice three Business Days after it becomes aware of an
Event of Default and written notice three Business Days before any termination of the then current Servicer, as the Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Upon an Event of
Default and termination of the Servicer, as the Servicer in accordance with the terms of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee may be substituted as the Servicer so long as the Indenture Trustee is then an approved SBA participating lender in good standing, operating under a current Small Business Administration Loan Guaranty Agreement (Deferred
Participation) (Form 750 or any successor form) and SBA has not requested otherwise in writing.
SBA may object to the substitution of the Indenture Trustee as the successor Servicer in its sole discretion. If the Indenture Trustee does not meet that condition or is otherwise unable to act or if SBA requests in writing, the Indenture Trustee will promptly act to appoint another Servicer in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. Any successor
Servicer must be approved by SBA, which approval may be withheld in its sole discretion, and any successor Servicer other than SBA must agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
- 14 -and must execute an agreement in the form of Exhibit 3. Any successor Servicer will be entitled to receive the Required Holdback Amount.

INTERESTS ISSUED BY THE TRUST], the Trust will not sell, participate, pledge, hypothecate, enter into any repurchase agreement with respect to, or otherwise transfer any of its interest in any SBA Lender Loan or any Note without SBA’s prior written consent. The proposed transferee must be an approved SBA participating lender in good standing, as defined in §120.425(f) of 13 C.F.R, operating under a current Small Business Administration Loan
Guaranty Agreement (Deferred Participation) (Form 750 or any successor form) and must be acceptable to SBA in its sole discretion. Upon consenting to any proposed transfer, SBA will give FTA prompt written notice. Any transferee must agree to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement.
12. SBA Lender Acknowledgment of Continuing Obligation; No Assumption of Liabilities. (a) No action taken by the Trust, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, FTA, SBA or the Servicer under this Agreement, the SBA Agreements, or the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or the Indenture will release or relieve the SBA Lender of any of its obligations to
SBA, FTA or to the Indenture Trustee. Neither the execution of this Agreement, nor the taking of any action by the Trust, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, SBA, FTA or the Servicer under this Agreement will be an assumption by the Trust, the Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, SBA, FTA or the Servicer of any liabilities or obligations of the SBA Lender.
(b) Neither SBA, FTA, the Trust, the Trustee, nor the Indenture
Trustee will have any duties or obligations under this Agreement other than those specifically set forth in this Agreement and no further duties or obligations shall arise by implication or
- 15 -otherwise. Neither SBA, FTA, the Trust, the Trustee, nor the Indenture Trustee will be liable for its acts or omissions hereunder except as may result from its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(c) The provisions of this Section 12 will survive termination of this
Agreement.
13. FTA’s and SBA’s Limited Liability and Expenses. (a) FTA shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, document, correspondence, request or direction received by it, including facsimile transmissions and electronic correspondence, it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed by the party purporting to sign it or transmitted by the party purporting to transmit it. FTA will not be obligated to inquire as to the authority or power of any person executing or transmitting any such documents or as to the truthfulness of any statements therein. The SBA Lender will assume liability for and indemnify, protect, and hold harmless
FTA from any liabilities or losses arising out of this Agreement, except in the case of FTA’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The SBA Lender will reimburse FTA for all reasonable expenses, taxes, and other charges that FTA incurs in administering this Agreement.
The SBA Lender will pay FTA its standard fee for its services under this Agreement. In performing its obligations under this Agreement, FTA will not follow instructions from any party other than SBA or, pursuant to Section 8(c), upon the request of the SBA Lender and consent of the Indenture Trustee. The FTA will not be liable for any acts or omissions taken in accordance with instructions from SBA.
(b) SBA shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, document, correspondence, request or direction received by it, including facsimile transmissions and electronic correspondence, it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed by the
- 16 -party purporting to sign it or transmitted by the party purporting to transmit it. SBA will not be obligated to inquire as to the authority or power of any person executing or transmitting any such documents or as to the truthfulness of any statements therein. The SBA Lender will assume liability for and indemnify, protect and hold harmless SBA from all liabilities or losses arising out of this Agreement, except in the case of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

(c) The provisions of this Section 13 will survive any termination of this Agreement.
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by telefax transmission or electronic imaging transmission thereof (and by different parties on separate counterparts), each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
15. Inconsistencies. If any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with any provision in any other agreement, including, but not limited to, the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and the Indenture, the provision of this Agreement controls. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and Indenture and any agreements entered into in connection with such agreements are amended to the extent necessary to give effect to the prior sentence. The SBA
Agreements are amended to provide that FTA will hold the Notes that are transferred pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and that the SBA Lender, on behalf of the Trust, may hold the Loan Documents as provided in this Agreement.
16. Amendment and Term. This Agreement may not be terminated or amended without the prior written consent of the parties, provided that in the event the SBA
- 17 -
Lender is removed as the Servicer, the SBA Lender shall only have the right to consent to a proposed termination or amendment to the extent such proposed amendment or termination materially and adversely affects the interests of the SBA Lender. The Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Indenture may not be amended without the prior written consent of SBA. The SBA Agreements may not be amended in any manner that would impair the respective rights of SBA or the Trust under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Trust, provided, however, that SBA may terminate the SBA Agreements in its sole discretion.
17. Conditions Precedent. It is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement that SBA receive (a) opinions of counsel to the effect that (i) this Agreement is enforceable against the Indenture Trustee and the SBA Lender, (ii) the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and Indenture are enforceable against the parties thereto, and (iii) in an insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to the SBA Lender, the sale of the Unguaranteed Interests to the
Trust Fund would be considered a true sale and not a financing, and (b) a certificate from the
Chief Financial Officer of the SBA Lender stating that the SBA Lender is Well Capitalized.
18. Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer, the Trustee or the Indenture
Trustee. The Servicer, the Trust, the Indenture Trustee and the Trustee, as the case may be, will promptly send notice to SBA of any merger, consolidation, conversion or succession to substantially all of its business referred to in Section 8.02 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or Section 6.09 of the Indenture or Section 10.04 of the Trust Agreement, respectively. If SBA determines that the Person (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement) succeeding the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee is unacceptable to it, SBA will give written notice to the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee or the
- 18 -
Indenture Trustee and a different Person will be appointed as the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Trust Agreement or the Indenture, as the case may be.

AGREEMENT WILL BE INTERPRETED AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE

GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW THEREOF).
20. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
21. Section Headings. The section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only, and are without substantive meaning or content.
