PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Investment Manager, certain Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent entered into the Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of July 18, 2024 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which the Lenders made certain Advances to the Borrower to finance the acquisition by the Borrower of certain Receivables from time to time, in each case on the terms and conditions set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Investment Manager and certain of its Affiliates are filing Chapter 11 Cases (as defined below) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”), and the Investment Manager and the Borrower have requested that the Existing Credit Agreement be amended and restated to provide for the refinancing of the obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and a continuation of the revolving loan facility and the other transactions contemplated hereby;

WHEREAS, the Lenders party hereto have agreed to (i) make Advances on the Restatement Date, the proceeds of which will be used to refinance the obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses, (ii) amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement and (iii) make available to the Borrower a revolving loan facility during the Chapter 11 Cases for the purposes of financing the continued acquisition by the Borrower of Receivables and for the other purposes permitted under the terms hereof, in each case on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and the agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

THE FACILITY

Section 1.1.The Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the conditions set forth in Article IV and in reliance upon the representations and warranties contained herein, each of the Lenders, severally and not jointly, agrees to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time and with respect to each Advance in the principal amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the requested Advance on the applicable Borrowing Date; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of any Lender’s Advance at any one time outstanding may not exceed the lesser of (A) the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (B) such Lender’s Percentage of the Borrowing Base and (ii) in no event shall an Overadvance exist at any time prior to or after giving effect to any such Advance; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty, liability or obligation regarding the Borrowing Base, the calculation thereof or the compliance with the previous proviso, or regarding the Daily Report delivered by the Borrower or the Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Advances. Each Lender’s several Revolving Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Facility Termination Date and no new Advances shall be made after such date.

Section 1.2.Requesting the Advances.

(a)The Borrower or Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, may request the initial Advance to be made on the Initial Funding Date by delivering to the Administrative Agent a written notice in the form set forth as Exhibit II-A hereto (a “Borrowing Notice”) by 10:00 a.m. (New York City time), not less than one Business Day (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree) prior to the date of the proposed Initial Funding Date. The initial Advance shall be subject to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 hereof.

(b)The Borrowing Notice for each Advance (including the initial Advance) shall be irrevocable and (A) certify that as of the Borrowing Date, no Overadvance exists or will result from such Advance based on the numbers set forth in the Daily Report delivered in connection with such Borrowing Notice, (B) specify the amount of the requested Advance, (C) specify the amount of Borrowing Availability after giving pro forma effect to the requested Advance and (D) specify the applicable Borrowing Date, which, in the case of the initial Advance shall be the Initial Funding Date; provided that the Borrowing Notice in respect of the initial Advance to be made on the Initial Funding Date may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of a transaction (as set forth therein), in which case such Borrowing Notice may be revoked by the Borrower or Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date if such condition is not satisfied.

| 2 |

(c)After the initial Advance is made hereunder, if, based on any Daily Report delivered by the Borrower or Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, pursuant to the terms hereof during the Revolving Period, there is Borrowing Availability as of the applicable Borrowing Date, the Borrower or Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, may request subsequent Advances by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Notice by 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) not less than three Business Days, or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree, prior to the date on which such Advance is requested to be made; provided that (i) neither the Borrower nor Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, shall request any Advances after the day that is 60 days prior to the Contractual Maturity Date and (ii) the Borrower and Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, may not request more than one Advance in any given calendar week during the Revolving Period. All subsequent Advances shall be subject to Section 4.2 hereof. The aggregate principal amount of each borrowing of Advances shall not be less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or such other amount as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree from time to time).

(d)The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Borrowing Notice and the applicable Interest Rate determined pursuant to Section 1.7. Each applicable Lender shall, before 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of the requested Advance, make available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 12.2, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Percentage of the principal amount of the Advance requested. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Administrative Agent will promptly make such funds available to the Borrower, Investment Manager or such other Person, in each case, as directed in the Borrowing Notice, in each case, on behalf of the Borrower, in accordance with the payment instructions set forth in the Borrowing Notice. All payments made by any Lender under this Section 1.2 shall be made without setoff or counterclaim of any kind.

(e)The failure of any Lender to make the Advance required by it on the date specified shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make its Advance on such date and the proceeds of the Advances made by such other Lenders shall be disbursed as directed by the Borrower or Investment Manager in accordance with the payment instructions set forth in the applicable Borrowing Notice, but no such other Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its Advance (as applicable) or payment required under this Agreement. If an Advance is not made on the proposed Borrowing Date therefor, in each case because any condition precedent to such requested Advance herein specified has not been met, the Administrative Agent shall return any amounts received to the respective Lenders without interest.

Section 1.3.Repayment and Optional Prepayments of the Aggregate Revolving Principal.

(a)To the extent not previously repaid, the Borrower shall repay the Aggregate Revolving Principal in full in cash on the Contractual Maturity Date or on demand by the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders) upon the acceleration of the Borrower Obligations following the occurrence of an Amortization Event.

| 3 |

(b)The Borrower shall have no right to prepay or repay the Aggregate Revolving Principal other than as provided in this Section 1.3.

(c)The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay any Advances in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) each prepayment of the Aggregate Revolving Principal (or part thereof) shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or such other amount as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree from time to time), (ii) such notice of prepayment must be received by the Administrative Agent by 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) not less than two Business Days (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree) prior to the date of such prepayment. Upon the giving of notice of such prepayment, such principal amount or amounts specified to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the applicable date specified in such notice. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Advances prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Percentage of such prepayment. Any prepayment of an Advance shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon.

(d)If on any Withdrawal Date an Overadvance exists, the Borrower shall prepay the Aggregate Revolving Principal in an aggregate amount equal to such Overadvance on such Withdrawal Date. For the purposes of any prepayments or cure of Overadvances made under this Section 1.3, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the amount of Aggregate Revolving Principal to be prepaid. If an Overadvance exists on any Payment Date, available funds shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.1 or 2.2, as applicable.

(e)In the event that an Overadvance exists on any date of determination as determined by the Administrative Agent (such calculations and determinations to be binding absent manifest error), the Borrower shall prepay the Aggregate Revolving Principal in an amount equal to such Overadvance within two Business Days of receipt of written notice of such Overadvance from the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the Investment Manager; provided that any notice received by the Borrower after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to be received on the following Business Day.

(f)The Borrower may also cure an Overadvance on any date by purchasing additional Eligible Receivables.

Section 1.4.Reduction and Termination of Commitments.

(a)The Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Contractual Maturity Date.

| 4 |

(b)At any time the Borrower or the Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower, may, upon at least five Business Days’ (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders acting in their sole and absolute discretion) may agree) irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders), terminate in whole ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages, the unused portion of the Revolving Commitments and the Facility Limit; provided that (x) any such termination shall be made in conjunction with a repayment of any remaining Aggregate Revolving Principal pursuant to Section 1.3 and (y) a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or other transactions, in which case such notice may be delayed until such time as such condition is satisfied or waived, or revoked if the Borrower or Investment Manager determines that such condition will not be satisfied or waived.

Section 1.5.Payment Requirements. The Borrower shall initiate a wire transfer to the Administrative Agent’s Account of amounts payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2 no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Payment Date when due in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward to the Lenders their respective shares of the funds so received. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Payment Date when due shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. All computations of Interest, Unused Facility Fees and per annum Fees under the Transaction Documents shall be made on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed (or, in the case of Interest calculated by reference to the Prime Rate, 365 days or, in the case of a leap year, 366 days). Interest shall accrue on each Advance for the day on which the Advance is made, and shall not accrue on an Advance, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Advance or such portion is paid; provided that any Advance that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to this Section 1.5, bear interest for one day.

Section 1.6.Deemed Collections. Upon the occurrence of any Dilution with respect to any Eligible Receivable included in the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received a Deemed Collection in the amount specified in the definition of “Deemed Collection,” and the Outstanding Balance of each Pool Receivable affected thereby shall be immediately reduced by the amount of such Dilution. If, after giving effect to any Dilution (and the reduction of each such Pool Receivable affected thereby), an Overadvance shall exist, the Borrower shall prepay the Aggregate Revolving Principal to the extent of such Overadvance in accordance with Section 1.3 and Section 2.1(b)(iv).

Section 1.7.Interest.

(a)Prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the Aggregate Revolving Principal shall accrue Interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Interest Rate. Upon (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Amortization Event and (ii) written notice from the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders) to the Borrower and Investment Manager that the Requisite Lenders are instituting the Default Rate (provided that the Default Rate shall be automatically instituted, without notice from the Administrative Agent, upon the occurrence of an Amortization Event occurring under Section 7.1(i)), the Aggregate Revolving Principal shall accrue Interest for each day at a rate per annum equal to (x) the applicable Interest Rate plus (y) the Default Rate. The Requisite Lenders may elect (in their sole discretion) for Default Interest to begin accruing as of the date of the applicable Amortization Event or as of the date on which written notice is delivered to the Borrower and Investment Manager pursuant to the foregoing clause (ii).

| 5 |

(b)At least four Business Days before each Monthly Payment Date, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the aggregate amount of Interest owing for the next Payment Date and shall notify the Borrower and Investment Manager of such aggregate amount.

(c)The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders, in accordance with Article II, their respective Percentages of (i) such accrued and unpaid Interest, which Interest shall be payable in cash in arrears on each Payment Date and (ii) Shortfall Interest, which Shortfall Interest shall be payable in cash in arrears on each Monthly Payment Date. In addition, accrued and unpaid Shortfall Interest shall be due and payable to the Lenders if the Revolving Commitments are terminated prior to the Contractual Maturity Date for any reason (including as a result of acceleration of the Revolving Commitments or otherwise) pursuant to this Agreement and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be in addition to, without limitation, any accrued and unpaid interest (other than Shortfall Interest) due as a result thereof, but without duplication of any Shortfall Interest.

(d)Minimum Interest. The interest rates provided for in this Agreement are minimum interest rates. When entering into this Agreement, the parties have assumed that the interest payable at the rates set out in this Section 1.7 or in other Sections of this Agreement is not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding that the parties do not anticipate that any payment of interest will be subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, they agree that, in the event that Swiss Withholding Tax is imposed on interest payments, the payment of interest due by the Borrower shall, in line with and subject to Section 8.5 including any limitations therein and any obligations thereunder, be increased to an amount which (after making any deduction of the Non-Refundable Portion (as defined below) of the Swiss Withholding Tax) results in a payment to each Lender entitled to such payment of an amount equal to the payment which would have been due had no deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax been required. For this purpose, the Swiss Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the full grossed-up interest amount. For the purposes of this Section, “Non-Refundable Portion” shall mean the Swiss Withholding Tax at the standard rate (being, as at the date hereof, 35%) unless a tax ruling issued by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration confirms that, in relation to a specific Lender based on an applicable double tax treaty, the Non-Refundable Portion is a specified lower rate, in which case such lower rate shall be applied in relation to such Lender. The Lenders shall provide to the Borrower and the Investment Manager all reasonably requested information, and otherwise reasonably cooperate, to obtain such Swiss tax ruling. The Borrower and the Investment Manager shall provide to the Administrative Agent the documents required by law or applicable double taxation treaties for the Lenders to claim a refund of any Swiss Withholding Tax so deducted.

(f)Borrower Indebtedness.

The Borrower shall cause the Originators, Servicers and the U.S. Intermediate Transferor, in each case, in accordance with each Purchase and Sale Agreement and Servicing Agreement, to direct all Obligors to, make payments of the Pool Receivables directly to a Collection Account, each of which shall at all times be subject to a Control Agreement.

(e)Any payment by an Obligor in respect of any Purchased Receivable owed by it to an Originator, the U.S. Intermediate Transferor or the Borrower shall be applied to the applicable invoice within 15 days after its receipt, unless sufficient information from the related Obligor is not available, in which case such application shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable.

Section 6.5.Responsibilities under Contracts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the exercise by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties of their rights hereunder shall not release the Investment Manager, any Originator, the Servicers, the U.S. Intermediate Transferor or the Borrower from any of their duties or obligations with respect to any Pool Receivables or under the related Contracts. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any Pool Receivables or related Contracts, nor shall any of them be obligated to perform the obligations of the Borrower, the U.S. Intermediate Transferor or any Originator.

Section 6.6.Servicing Fees. The Borrower shall pay each Servicer the servicing fees as set forth in each Servicing Agreement as and when required thereby, but subject to the priorities set forth in Section 2.1 and 2.2 hereof.

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of the Borrower or limit the recourse of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to the Borrower for amounts otherwise specifically provided to be paid by the Borrower under the terms of the Transaction Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any Purchase and Sale Agreement, Servicing Agreement or the U.S. Intermediate Transfer Agreement or another agreement imposes any obligation on an Originator or the U.S. Intermediate Transferor with respect to any Indemnified Amount, such Indemnified Amount shall not include any losses in respect of Pool Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness or other financial or credit condition of the related Obligor.

| 54 |

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, the Borrower shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Indemnified Amounts (including, without limitation, losses in respect of uncollectible Pool Receivables, regardless of whether reimbursement therefor would constitute recourse to the Borrower) to the extent relating to or resulting from:

(a)any representation or warranty made by the Borrower (or if applicable, any Trinseo Party) (or any officers of any such Person) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false, incorrect or misleading when made or deemed made, and such false representation, warranty or certification (if curable, including the repurchase of any Receivable in accordance with the applicable Purchase and Sale Agreement) shall remain incorrect for a period of 15 Business Days;

(b)(A) the failure by any Trinseo Party to comply with any applicable Law with respect to any Pool Receivable or Contract related thereto, (B) the nonconformity of any Pool Receivable or Contract related thereto with any such applicable Law or (C) any failure of any Originator to keep or perform any of its obligations, express or implied, with respect to any Contract;

(c)any failure of any Trinseo Party to perform its duties, covenants or other obligations in accordance with the provisions of any Transaction Document to which it is party that is related to Pool Receivables or to timely and fully comply with the Credit and Collection Policy with regards to each Pool Receivable;

(d)any environmental liability, products liability, personal injury or damage suit, or other similar claim arising out of or in connection with goods, insurance or services that are the subject of any Contract or any Pool Receivable;

(e)any dispute, claim, offset or defense (other than discharge in bankruptcy of the Obligor) of the Obligor to the payment of any Pool Receivable (including, without limitation, a defense based on such Pool Receivable or the related Contract not being a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law)) or any other claim resulting from the sale of the goods or service related to such Receivable or the furnishing or failure to furnish such goods or services;

(f)the commingling of Collections of Pool Receivables at any time with other funds;

(g)any claim brought by any Person arising from any activity by any Trinseo Party in servicing, administering or collecting any Pool Receivable;

(h)any failure of the Borrower to acquire and maintain legal and equitable title to, and ownership of any Pool Receivable and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto from any Originator or the U.S. Intermediate Transferor, as applicable, free and clear of any Adverse Claim, or any failure of the Borrower to give reasonably equivalent value to the applicable Originator under the Purchase and Sale Agreement or the U.S. Intermediate Transferor under the U.S. Intermediate Transfer Agreement or, in each case, any attempt by any Person to void such sale or contribution under statutory provisions or common law or equitable action;

| 55 |

(i)any failure to vest and maintain vested in the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a valid and perfected first priority perfected Security Interest in the Collateral, free and clear of any Adverse Claim;

(j)the failure by any Trinseo Party to pay when due any Taxes, including, without limitation, sales, excise or personal property Taxes;

(k)any action or omission by any Trinseo Party which reduces or impairs the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders with respect to any Collateral or the value of any Collateral (other than at the direction of the Collateral Agent or any Lender and except as contemplated by the Transaction Documents); and

(l)the failure of any Receivable included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base as an Eligible Receivable to be an Eligible Receivable at the time so included.

(m)For the avoidance of doubt but without limiting any of the Borrower’s express obligations (including indemnification obligations) under any Transaction Document to which it is a party, there shall be no recourse to any Trinseo Party (other than the Borrower) for the Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder other than to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document.

Section 8.2.Indemnities by the Investment Manager.

(a)Without limiting any other rights that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Investment Manager hereby agrees to indemnify (and pay upon demand to) each Indemnified Party from and against any and all damages, losses, claims, liabilities, fees, reasonable costs and expenses and for all other amounts payable (including without limitation any fees or expenses (including out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs) incurred by any Indemnified Party in enforcing the indemnity), including reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of (x) one firm of legal counsel to the Lenders, taken as a whole, (y) one firm of legal counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and (z) where reasonably required by the Lenders, Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, one firm of local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts”) asserted against or incurred by any of them arising out of or as a result of the Investment Manager’s failure to duly and punctually perform its obligations under this Agreement excluding, however, in all of the foregoing instances (the following exclusions, the “Investment Manager Indemnification Exclusions”):

(a)Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts resulted from gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of an Indemnified Party seeking indemnification (but any Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification of all amounts incurred prior to any such determination; provided that the Indemnified Party shall be required to return such amounts upon such determination);

| 56 |

(b)Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts to the extent the same includes losses in respect of Receivables that are uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness or other financial or credit condition of the related Obligor;

(c)recourse for Receivables which are not collected, not paid or uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or financial inability to pay of the applicable Obligor;

(d)Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from a material breach by the Indemnified Party in respect of its obligations under any Transaction Documents;

(e)Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts to the extent that such Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts resulted from disputes between or among Indemnified Parties not involving the Investment Manager or any Trinseo Party;

(f)Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts representing any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith other than in respect of any such special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages incurred or paid by an Indemnified Party to a third party and to which such Indemnified Party is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 8.1; or

(g)Taxes (other than (i) any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages or other liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim and (ii) Taxes enumerated in clause (v) below);

provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the liability of the Investment Manager or limit the recourse of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to the Investment Manager for Collections received by the Investment Manager and required to be remitted by it under the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing indemnification, the Investment Manager shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties for Investment Manager Indemnified Amounts to the extent relating to or resulting from, subject to the Investment Manager Indemnification Exclusions:

(i)any representation or warranty made by the Investment Manager (or any officers of the Investment Manager) under or in connection with this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other information or report delivered by any such Person pursuant hereto or thereto, which shall have been false, incorrect or misleading when made or deemed made, subject to any grace or cure periods applicable thereto, other than any incorrect representation or warranty made by a U.S. Originator or U.S. Intermediate Transferor that has been remedied pursuant to Section 7.1(a) of the U.S. Purchase and Sale Agreement and Section 7.1(a) of the U.S. Transfer Agreement;

| 57 |

(ii)the failure by the Investment Manager to comply with any applicable Law with respect to the collection of any Pool Receivable or Related Security;

(iii)any failure of the Investment Manager to perform its duties, covenants or other obligations in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(iv)the commingling of Collections of Receivables or funds or other assets arising therefrom at any time with other funds; and

(v)any liability of the Borrower under Section 8.5 to the extent such liability arises out of or as a result of any action by the Investment Manager or any of its Affiliates that causes the Borrower to erroneously make any payment, deduction or withholding with respect to any Tax to any Person other than a Secured Party.

Section 8.3.Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a)If after the Restatement Date, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall be charged any fee, expense or increased cost on account of the introduction of or any change after the date hereof in applicable law or in the interpretation of any applicable Law by any Governmental Authority (a “Regulatory Change”): (a) that subjects the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to any Taxes, other than Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and Connection Income Taxes, on its loans, loan principal, letter of credit commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, (b) that imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, liquidity requirement, compulsory loan, insurance or other insurance-related charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or a Lender, or credit extended or any commitments to extend credit by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or (c) that imposes any other condition (other than Taxes) the result of which is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender of performing its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or to reduce the rate of return on the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender under any Transaction Document to a level below that which such Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change or to require any payment calculated by reference to the amount of interests in Collateral, then, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender, the Borrower, shall pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender such amounts as are charged to such Person amounts as may otherwise be necessary to compensate such Person for such increased cost or such reduction; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act adopted on July 21, 2010 and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Regulatory Change”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. For the avoidance of doubt, payments under this Section 8.3 in respect of increased Taxes shall be without duplication of any Taxes payable pursuant to Section 8.5.

| 58 |

(b)If a Lender requests compensation under this Section 8.3, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower or Investment Manager and at the Borrower’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another office of such Lender as the place for the booking and funding of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Advances hereunder; provided that such efforts would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be materially disadvantageous in any legal, economic or regulatory respect to such Lender.

(c)The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 8.3 shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower and Investment Manager contemporaneously with the demand for payment, setting forth in reasonable detail a calculation of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(d)With respect to any claim for compensation under this Section 8.3, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent for any amount incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and Investment Manager of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 270 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e)Any demand for compensation made by any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 8.3 shall be made only to the extent such Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (each in its capacity as such) is making similar demand with respect to its similarly situated commercial borrowers under comparable credit facilities.

Section 8.4.Other Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (a) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and of counsel for the Lenders), in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including amounts incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with certificates, searches and reports ordered by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent with respect to the Trinseo Parties during the term of this Agreement) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (b) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including its rights under this Section 8.4; provided that, in each case of the foregoing, fees of legal counsel shall be limited to the fees, charges and disbursements of (x) one primary outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, (y) one primary outside counsel to the Lenders (taken as a whole) and (z) if necessary, one local counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and the Lenders (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction and one regulatory counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders (taken as a whole) and, in the event of any actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each group of similarly situated Lenders or Agents subject to such conflict).

| 59 |

Section 8.5.Taxes. (a)

(i)Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Transaction Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower (or the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager on its behalf), then the Borrower (or the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager, as the case may be) shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower (or the Investment Manager, as the case may be) 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 8.5) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(ii)A payment shall not be increased under Section 8.5(a)(i)above in respect of a deduction or withholding on account of Tax imposed by Ireland if:

(A)on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without any such deduction or withholding if the Lender had been an Irish Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be an Irish Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Irish Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or

(B)the relevant Lender is an Irish Treaty Lender and the Borrower is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 8.5(i)below.

(b)Without duplication of other amounts payable by the Borrower (or the Investment Manager) under this Section, the Borrower (or the Investment Manager, on its behalf) shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the written request of the applicable Recipient timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

| 60 |

(c)The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, on the first Settlement Date which is at least ten (10) days 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 8.5 (save for any payment falling within Section 8.5(a)(ii))) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket 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 delivered to the Investment Manager (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount to be paid to a Recipient shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(d)Each Recipient agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate any claim for indemnity pursuant to this Section 8.5, including, subject to applicable Law, a change in the funding office of such Recipient; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall obligate any Recipient to take any action that imposes on such Recipient any additional unreimbursed costs or imposes material legal or regulatory burdens, or that would otherwise be disadvantageous to such Recipient. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by a Recipient in connection with any such action.

(e)As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 8.5, the Borrower (or the Investment Manager on its behalf) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent 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 the Administrative Agent.

(f)If any Recipient determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 8.5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 8.5), it shall pay to the Borrower 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 Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower (or the Investment Manager, on its behalf), upon the request of such Recipient, shall repay to such Recipient the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (f)(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (f), in no event will the Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this clause (f)the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Recipient 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 clause (f)shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower, the Investment Manager or any other Person.

| 61 |

(g)Each Lender shall deliver to the Investment Manager and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party under this Agreement and as otherwise prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent, such valid, properly completed and duly executed forms, certificates and documentation, along with any applicable attachments prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without or at a reduced rate of withholding and as will enable the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower, Investment Manager and Administrative Agent, in writing of its legal inability to do so. Each Lender shall replace or update such forms when necessary to maintain any applicable exemption and as requested by the Administrative Agent or the Investment Manager, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (g), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent for and hold the Administrative Agent harmless from (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes relating to payments by the Borrower to such Lender or such indemnitee arising from such Lender’s failure to comply with Section 8.5(g)or with the provisions of Section 10.7(a)relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, together with any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, regardless of whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Any notice claiming indemnification under this Section 8.5(g)shall set forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender hereunder or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.5(g).

(h)If a payment made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such payee 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), such payee shall deliver to the Investment Manager and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Investment Manager or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such payee has complied with such payee’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (h), the term “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

| 62 |

(i)A Lender which is an Irish Treaty Lender and the Borrower which makes a payment to which that Irish Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for the Borrower to make that payment without a withholding or deduction on account of Tax imposed by Ireland.

(j)Each Lender confirms that, as of the date of this Agreement, it is an Irish Qualifying Lender.

(k)Each Lender which becomes a Lender after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the documentation which it executes on becoming a party as a Lender, which of the following categories it falls in:

(i)not an Irish Qualifying Lender;

(ii)an Irish Qualifying Lender (other than an Irish Treaty Lender); or

(iii)an Irish Treaty Lender.

If such a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 8.5(k)then that Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by the Borrower) as if it is not an Irish Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Borrower which category applies. For the avoidance of doubt, the documentation which a Lender executes on becoming a Party as a Lender shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 8.5(k).

(l)Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Investment Manager if it ceases to be an Irish Qualifying Lender.

(m)Upon request from the Borrower or the Investment Manager, each Lender shall promptly provide such information as shall be requested to enable the Borrower to comply with the provisions of sections 891A, 891E, 891F and 891G of the Irish Taxes Act (or any regulations made in respect of or in connection with such sections).

(n)Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.5 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Transaction Document.

(o)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including this Section 8.5), the Borrower shall not be required to make a tax gross up, a tax indemnity payment or an increased interest payment under this Agreement to a specific Lender or Participant (but, for the avoidance of doubt, shall remain required to make a tax gross up, a tax indemnity payment, or an increased interest payment to all other Lenders) in respect of Swiss Withholding Tax due on interest payments under this Agreement as a direct result of such Lender or Participant:

(i)making an incorrect declaration of its status as to whether or not it is a Swiss Qualifying Lender or a single Swiss Non-Qualifying Lender;

| 63 |

(ii)breaching the restrictions regarding transfers, assignments, participations, sub-participation and exposure transfers set forth in Section 10.1; or

(iii)ceasing to be a Swiss Qualifying Lender (if it had been a Swiss Qualifying Lender) as a result of any reason attributable to such Lender or Participant.

(p)For certain payments made pursuant to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may be required to make a “reportable payment” or “withholdable payment” and in such cases the Administrative Agent shall have the duty to act as a payor or withholding agent, respectively, that is responsible for any tax withholding and reporting required under Chapters 3, 4, and 61 of the Code. The Administrative Agent shall have the sole right to make the determination as to which payments are “reportable payments” or “withholdable payments”. All parties to this Agreement shall provide and executed IRS Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 (or, in each case, any successor form) to the Administrative Agent prior to closing, and shall promptly update any such form to the extent such form expires or becomes inaccurate in any respect because of a change in circumstances. The Administrative Agent shall have the right to request from any party to this Agreement, or any other Person entitled to payment hereunder, any additional forms, documentation or other information as may be reasonably necessary for the Trustee to satisfy its reporting and withholding obligations under the Code. To the extent any such forms to be delivered under this clause (p)are not provided prior to or by the time the related payment is required to be made or are determined by the Administrative Agent to be incomplete and/or inaccurate in any respect, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold on any such payments hereunder to the extent withholding is required under Chapters 3, 4, or 61 of the Code, and shall have no obligation to gross up any such payments.

ARTICLE IX.

THE AGENTS

Section 9.1.Appointment.

(a)Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints GLAS USA LLC as Administrative Agent hereunder, and GLAS AMERICAS LLC as Collateral Agent hereunder, and authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, by the terms of the Transaction Documents to which the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is a party. The Lenders hereby authorize, empower and direct each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to execute and deliver on their behalf the Transaction Documents and all related agreements, documents or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate as determined by the Lenders in good faith and in the forms presented to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, as of the date hereof in order to effectuate the purposes of the Transaction Documents and any such other related agreements, documents and instruments. Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Transaction Documents and agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Transaction Documents to the extent then in effect. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in the Transaction Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have (i) any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or (ii) any fiduciary relationship with any Person, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities on the part of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be read into the Transaction Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Transaction Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The permissive authorizations, entitlements, powers and rights granted to the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in the Transaction Documents shall not be construed as duties.

| 64 |

(b)In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall act solely as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, of the Lenders and does not assume nor shall be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of trust or agency with or for any of the Trinseo Parties or any of their respective successors and assigns.

(c)The Lenders party hereto hereby direct each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which it was a party on the Restatement Date. It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in taking the foregoing actions, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent is responsible for the terms or contents of such agreements, or for the validity or enforceability thereof, or the sufficiency thereof for any purpose. Whether or not so expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking (or forbearing from) any action under or pursuant to, the Transaction Documents, each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under this Agreement (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of such other agreement or agreements).

(d)The Administrative Agent hereby represents and warrants that it is a “U.S. person” and a “financial institution” and that it will comply with any “obligation to withhold,” each within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(ii).

(e)Without limiting any other rights of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in relation to Swiss Collateral Documents:

(i)the Collateral Agent holds (A) any Security Interest constituted by such Swiss Collateral Document (but only in relation to an assignment or any other non-accessory (nicht akzessorische) Security Interest), (B) the benefit of this paragraph (i) and (C) any proceeds of such Security Interest, as indirect representative (treuhänderisch) in its own name but for the account of all relevant Secured Parties which have the benefit of such Security Interest in accordance with this Agreement and the respective Swiss Collateral Documents;

| 65 |

(ii)each present and future Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, acting for itself and in the name and for the account of such Secured Party as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) (A) to accept any Swiss law pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) Security Interest made or expressed to be made to such Secured Party in relation to the Swiss Collateral Documents, to hold, administer and, if necessary, enforce any such Security Interest on behalf of each relevant Secured Party which has the benefit of such Security Interest, (B) to agree to amendments and alterations to any Swiss Collateral Document which creates a pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) Security Interest, (C) to effect any release of a Security Interest created under a Swiss Collateral Document in accordance with this Agreement and (D) to exercise such other rights granted to such Secured Party and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the relevant Swiss Collateral Documents.

Section 9.2.Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may execute any of their respective duties under the applicable Transaction Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact or their respective Affiliates or related parties and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The exculpatory and indemnification provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such Affiliate, related party, agent and attorney-in- fact and to their respective Affiliates and related parties, and shall apply, without limitation, to their activities as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

Section 9.3.Exculpatory Provisions.

(a)Neither the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken (including the making of (or omitting to make) any determination, calculations, selection, request or providing any approval or consent or enter into any amendments, modifications or supplements) by it or any Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; provided that no action taken or not taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders or such other percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary hereunder, as applicable, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for (A) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Trinseo Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or in any certificate, report, instrument, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents or Lenders under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated herein or therein, (B) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, execution, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or for any failure of any Trinseo Party party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder, (C) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, (D) the financial condition or business affairs of any Trinseo Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Borrower Obligations or (E) the attachment, creation or perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted in the Collateral pursuant hereto or the continuation or amendment of any financing statements filed to perfect the Liens in the applicable Collateral (other than to the extent expressly directed by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents).

| 66 |

(b)Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall (a) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event has occurred or is continuing, or a Facility Termination Date has occurred, or (b) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents that the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Transaction Document or Requirement of Law. Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from taking any discretionary action unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Requisite Lenders, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall incur any liability to any Person by reason of so refraining and if, in performing its duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is required to decide between alternative courses of action or has received conflicting directions or any other directions from Requisite Lenders, which instructions may be given in email or other writing as requested by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may refrain from taking any action until it receives instructions from the Requisite Lenders.

(c)The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender (i) to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or provisions contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) to inspect the properties, books or records of any Trinseo Party, (iii) to ascertain or to inquire as to the use of the proceeds of the Advances, (iv) to ascertain or to inquire as to the existence or possible existence of any Amortization Event, Potential Amortization Event or Facility Termination Date, (v) to ascertain or to inquire as to any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (vi) to ascertain or to inquire as to the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any Transaction Documents or in connection herewith or therewith, (vii) to ascertain or to inquire as to the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created under this Agreement, (viii) to ascertain or to inquire as to the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, (ix) to ascertain or to inquire as to the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or (x) to ascertain or inquire as to whether any prospective assignee is an Affiliate of a Lender, or (xi) to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing or otherwise relating to any Trinseo Party unless expressly required herein. The only obligation of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent with respect to any notice, certificate, report or other document delivered to it is to deliver a copy of the same to the Lenders. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability or responsibility to review the contents of any such notice, certificate, report or other document or to take action in connection therewith absent a direction of the Requisite Lenders in accordance with this Agreement. It is expressly agreed and acknowledged that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent is guaranteeing performance of the obligations of the Trinseo Parties or other parties hereto or any parties to the Collateral. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Advances or the component amounts thereof. Additionally, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Advances, or disclosure of confidential information to any potential Lender in the absence of such Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be obligated to calculate or confirm the calculations of any Unused Facility Fee, or any covenants set forth herein or the other Transaction Documents or in any of the financial statements of the Trinseo Parties.

| 67 |

(d)The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under the Transaction Documents are solely to protect each of the Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s interest in the Collateral, shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers and are subject to the provisions of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers. The Collateral Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of any Collateral in its possession, under the UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Collateral Agent deals with similar property for its own account. The Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility for taking any necessary steps to protect, preserve or exercise rights against any Person with respect to any of the Collateral and shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it to the Borrower. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action to protect against any diminution in value of the Collateral.

(e)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be required to (i) make or give any determination (including whether a matter is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, or whether to deem a matter necessary, desirable, proper or advisable), agreement, consent, approval, request, notice, consultation, designation, appointment, election, judgment or direction, (ii) file, record or prepare any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments in any jurisdiction for purposes of creating, perfecting or maintaining any Lien or security interest, (iii) make any inspection or (iv) release or sell Collateral or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies of a secured party (including voting rights), in each case, without the written direction of the Requisite Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible to the Lenders for the perfection of any Lien or for the filing, form, content or renewal of any UCC financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and such other documents or instruments, provided, however, that if instructed by the Requisite Lenders and at the expense of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall arrange for the filing and continuation, of financing statements or other filing or recording documents or instruments (collectively, the “Financing Statements”) for the perfection of security interests in the Collateral; provided, that, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the preparation, form, content, sufficiency or adequacy of any such Financing Statements, all of which shall be provided in writing to the Collateral Agent by the Requisite Lenders including the jurisdictions and filing offices where the Collateral Agent is required to file such Financing Statements.

| 68 |

(f)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents to the contrary, before taking or omitting any action to be taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may seek the written direction of the Requisite Lenders (which written direction may be in the form of an e-mail), and each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely (and shall be fully protected in so relying) upon such direction. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with such direction. If either the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall request such direction with respect to any action, such Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such action unless and until the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have received such direction, and neither the Administrative Agent nor Collateral Agent shall incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Any provision of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents authorizing the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to take any action shall not obligate the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to take such action.

(g)In no event shall the Collateral Agent have any duty, responsibility, obligation or liability with respect to monitoring the Collateral or the condition thereof, or with respect to the perfection of any security interest or the maintenance of any perfection or priority.

(h)In acting under the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities set forth in this Agreement.

(i)Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be required to use, risk or advance its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or the exercise of any of its rights and powers hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents (including, but not limited to, no obligation to grant any credit extension or to make any advance hereunder). Before acting hereunder, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to request, receive and rely upon such certificates and opinions as it may reasonably determine are appropriate with respect to the satisfaction of any specified circumstances or conditions precedent to such action. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics or pandemics, government-mandated closures, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes, terrorist attacks or other disasters. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be liable, directly or indirectly, for any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages, even if such Agent has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action.

| 69 |

(j)Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Transaction Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Requisite Lenders (and shall not be liable for any loss or expense that arises as a result of its failure to act while awaiting such advice or concurrence) and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

(k)The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and such advice shall be full protection and authorization for any action taken by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in good faith thereon.

(l)Delivery of reports, documents and other information to the Administrative Agent is for informational purposes only and the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the foregoing shall not constitute constructive knowledge of any event or circumstance or any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein.

(m)The Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for interest or income on any funds held by it under the Transaction Documents and any funds so held shall be held uninvested pending distribution thereof.

(n)The Lenders and any transferees or assignees after the Restatement Date will be required to provide to the Administrative Agent or its agents all information, documentation or certifications reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to permit the Administrative Agent to comply with its tax reporting obligations under applicable laws, including any applicable cost basis reporting obligations.

(o)Notwithstanding any other provision of the Transaction Documents and without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty, liability or obligation to any party to this Agreement with respect to Receivables or with respect to the proceeds thereof, other than with respect to the standard of care applicable to the Collateral required under Section 9.3(d). The Lenders agree to provide any such direction requested by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent within two (2) Business Days of request therefor.

(p)Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability for any failure, inability or unwillingness on the part of any Trinseo Party to provide accurate and complete information on a timely basis to the Administrative Agent, or otherwise on the part of any such party to comply with the terms of this Agreement, and neither such Agent shall have any liability for any inaccuracy or error in the performance or observance on the Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s part of any of its duties hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents that is caused by or results from any such inaccurate, incomplete or untimely information received by it, or other failure on the part of any such other party to comply with the terms hereof.

| 70 |

(q)For purposes of clarity, phrases such as “satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,” “approved by the Administrative Agent,” “acceptable to the Administrative Agent,” “as determined by the Administrative Agent,” “in the Administrative Agent’s discretion,” “selected by the Administrative Agent,” “elected by the Administrative Agent,” “requested by the Administrative Agent,” and phrases of similar import that authorize and permit the Administrative Agent to approve, disapprove, determine, act or decline to act in its discretion shall be subject to the Administrative Agent receiving written direction from the Requisite Lenders, to take such action or to exercise such rights (it being understood that nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall impose a duty on the Administrative Agent to make any such determination or take any action independent of such written direction from the Requisite Lenders). For purposes of clarity, phrases such as “satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,” “approved by the Collateral Agent,” “acceptable to the Collateral Agent,” “as determined by the Collateral Agent,” “in the Collateral Agent’s discretion,” “selected by the Collateral Agent,” “elected by the Collateral Agent,” “requested by the Collateral Agent,” and phrases of similar import that authorize and permit the Collateral Agent to approve, disapprove, determine, act or decline to act in its discretion shall be subject to the Collateral Agent receiving written direction from the Requisite Lenders, to take such action or to exercise such rights (it being understood that nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall impose a duty on the Collateral Agent to make any such determination or take any action independent of such written direction from the Requisite Lenders).

(r)Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereby disclaims any representation or warranty to the Lenders concerning and shall have no responsibility to Lenders for the existence, priority or perfection of the Liens and security interests granted hereunder or under any Transaction Document or in the value of any of the Collateral and shall not be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent makes no representation as to the value, sufficiency or condition of the Collateral or any part thereof, as to the title of the Borrower to the Collateral, as to the security afforded by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for insuring the Collateral, for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral, except as provided in the immediately following sentence when the Collateral Agent has possession of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to the Lenders as to any Collateral in its possession or in the possession of someone under its control or in the possession or control of any agent or nominee of such Collateral Agent or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto, except the duty to accord such of the Collateral as may be in its possession substantially the same care as it accords its own assets and the duty to account for monies received by it. The Collateral Agent shall not be under an obligation independently to request or examine insurance coverage with respect to any Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any bank, depositary bank, custodian, independent counsel of the Borrower or any other party selected by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Requisite Lenders with reasonable care or selected by any other party hereto that may hold or possess Collateral or documents related to Collateral and shall not be required to monitor the performance of any such Persons holding Collateral.

| 71 |

(s)The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, ABR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions unrelated to this Agreement that affect the calculation of the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Investment Manager or the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may (i) select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, or any other Benchmark, Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Adjustments, and to make any Conforming Changes, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (ii) shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender, any Trinseo Party or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service and (iii) in making any determination as to the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, or any other Benchmark, Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or the making of any Conforming Changes, shall be entitled to request and rely on direction from the Requisite Lenders prior to ascertaining or making such determination.

Section 9.4.Reliance by the Agent and the Lenders

(a)Each of the Agents and the Lenders shall in all cases be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon (and shall not be liable for so relying upon in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct) any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, facsimile, telex or teletype message, statement, electronic transmission, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed (whether manual, facsimile, .pdf or other electronic signature), sent or made (or authenticated) by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to presume the genuineness and due authority of any signature (whether manual, facsimile, .pdf or other electronic signature) appearing thereon, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Trinseo Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent or such Lender. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance. Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may request instructions from the Requisite Lenders (or such number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents) prior to taking any action or enter into any amendments, modifications or supplements, making any determination (including as to whether any agreement, document or instrument is in form and substance satisfactory to such Agent), making any calculation (which shall be computed by the Requisite Lenders), sending any notice, making a selection or request (including failing to make a selection or request), exercising any voting rights or powers (including failing to exercise any voting rights or powers) or providing any consent or approval (including failing to provide any consent or approval) in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and may refrain (and shall incur no liability from so refraining) from taking or omitting to take any act or making any such determination, calculation, selection, request, exercising such voting rights or powers or providing such notice, approval or consent or entering into or any amendments, modifications or supplements until it receives such instruction (or calculation, as applicable) from the Requisite Lenders (or such number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), in each case as it reasonably deems appropriate (and until such instructions and indemnity, as applicable, are received, each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable in good faith in the interests of the Lenders). Each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with a request of the Requisite Lenders (or such number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Advances. Notwithstanding any other provisions set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, each Agent shall not be required to take any action that is in its opinion contrary to applicable Law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law (or any similar laws)) or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law (or any similar laws) or the terms of any of the Transaction Documents or that would in its reasonable opinion subject it or any of its officers, employees or directors to personal liability. Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement or funding its Advances, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Transaction Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the Requisite Lenders or Lenders, as applicable on the Restatement Date or as of, or prior to, the date of funding such Advance. On any applicable date of determination, upon request, the Administrative Agent shall be required to calculate whether a particular group of Lenders constitutes the Requisite Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to remit payments, the proceeds of Collateral or any other funds to the Lenders or any other Secured Parties herein other than in accordance with the Transaction Documents.

(b)Any action taken by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 9.4(a)shall be binding upon all Lenders.

| 73 |

Section 9.5.Notice of Amortization Events. The Agents and the Lenders shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event, or the Facility Termination Date, unless such Lender or an officer of such Agent in the corporate trust department who is responsible for this Agreement, as the case may be, has received written notice from another party referring to this Agreement, stating that an Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event has occurred hereunder, or a Facility Termination Date has occurred, and describing such event. In the event that an Agent or one of the Lenders receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the other Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Amortization Event or Potential Amortization Event as shall be directed by the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or such number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided for herein or in the other Transaction Documents); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Amortization Event, Potential Amortization Event or Facility Termination Date, as it shall deem advisable in good faith in the interests of the Lenders.

Section 9.6.Non-Reliance on the Agents or Other Lender. Each of the Lenders expressly acknowledges that the Agents, the other Lenders, and the respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates of any of the foregoing has made no representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agents or any other Lender hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Trinseo Parties or any of their Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent or such other Lender. Each of the Lenders also represents and warrants to the Agents and the other Lenders that it has, independently and without reliance upon any such Person (or any of their Affiliates) and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Trinseo Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each of the Lenders also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any of the Agents or the other Lenders, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Trinseo Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the Agents, the Lenders and the respective Affiliates of the foregoing, shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any party to this Agreement with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Trinseo Parties which may come into the possession of such Person or any of its respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

| 74 |

Section 9.7.Indemnification of the Agents. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and controlling persons (to the extent not timely reimbursed by the Trinseo Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Trinseo Parties to do so), ratably in accordance with their respective Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, fees, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or such Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other document furnished in connection herewith or therewith (but excluding any such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or such Person, as the case may be, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, no action taken or not taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders or such other percentage of Lenders as shall be necessary hereunder, as applicable, shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any amount shall be payable by the Collateral Agent to a Collection Bank under a Control Agreement, including without limitation any amounts for the fees, expenses or indemnities of a Collection Bank, or if a Collection Bank shall otherwise make any claim upon the Collateral Agent under such agreement, then each Lender shall be jointly and severally liable to pay such amount to the Collateral Agent promptly and in any event within five (5) days of demand therefor from the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent shall not be required to demand payment of such amount from the Borrower prior to demanding payment of such amount from the Lenders. To the extent the Borrower (or the Investment Manager, on behalf of the Borrower) for any reason, fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under Section 8.1, Section 8.2 or Section 8.4 of this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Revolving Commitment at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such pro rata share.

Section 9.8.Each Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent in its individual capacity and the affiliates thereof may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Trinseo Parties and their Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder. With respect to its Advances, if any, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity, if applicable.

Section 9.9.Successor Administrative Agent; Successor Collateral Agent.

(a)The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may at any time give no less than thirty (30) days’ written notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Investment Manager. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, with, prior to the occurrence of an Amortization Event, the consent of the Investment Manager, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank or trust company with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank or trust company with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Lenders) (the “Resignation Closing Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders within sixty (60) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the departing Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Secured Parties, petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

| 75 |

(b)Upon resignation or replacement of any Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 9.9, the retiring Agent shall execute or authorize the filing of such UCC-3 assignments and amendments, and assignments and amendments of the Transaction Documents, as may be directed by the Requisite Lenders to give effect to its replacement by a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, the provisions of Article VIII and this Article IX shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent under this Agreement.

(c)If an Insolvency Proceeding is initiated by or against the Person serving as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, or if the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent is generally unable to pay its debts as they come due or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts they become due or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, then the Requisite Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by written notice in writing to the Investment Manager and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and, in consultation with the Investment Manager, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within sixty (60) days after delivery of such notice (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Lenders) (the “Removal Closing Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Closing Date and the Requisite Lenders may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

(d)With effect from the Resignation Closing Date or the Removal Closing Date (as applicable), (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent under any of the Transaction Documents, the retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security in a custodial capacity only until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed or such Administrative Agent may deposit such security with a court of competent jurisdiction (at the expense of Lenders)) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as of the Resignation Closing Date or the Removal Closing Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of their duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, the provisions of Article VIII and this Article IX shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, their sub agents and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable.

| 76 |

(e)Any Person into which the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Administrative Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate trust services business of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall be the successor of such Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 9.10.UCC Filings. Each of the Lenders hereby expressly recognizes and agrees that the Collateral Agent may be designated as the secured party of record on the various UCC filings required to be made under this Agreement and the party entitled to amend, release and terminate the UCC filings under each Purchase and Sale Agreement and the U.S. Intermediate Transfer Agreement in order to perfect their respective interests in the Pool Receivables, Collections and Related Security, that such designation shall be for administrative convenience only in creating a record or nominee holder to take certain actions hereunder on behalf of the Lenders and that such listing will not affect in any way the status of the Lenders as the true parties in interest with respect to the Collateral. In addition, such listing shall impose no duties on the Collateral Agent other than those expressly and specifically undertaken in accordance with this Article IX.

Section 9.11.[Reserved].

Section 9.12.Erroneous Payments.

(a)If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party such Lender (any such Lender Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Prime Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

| 77 |

(b)Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Secured Party such Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i)(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x)or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)such Lender or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.12(b).

(c)Each Lender or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Secured Party under any Transaction Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a)or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

| 78 |

(d)In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Revolving Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Revolving Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any notes evidencing such Advances to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Revolving Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Revolving Commitments of any Lender and such Revolving Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold an Advance (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Secured Party under the Transaction Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e)The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Trinseo Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Trinseo Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

| 79 |

(g)Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.12 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Transaction Document.

ARTICLE X.

ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

Section 10.1.Assignments and Transfer of Commitments. Each Lender shall have the right at any time or times to assign or transfer, without recourse, all or a portion of (a) that Lender’s Revolving Commitments, and (b) all or a portion of the Advances made by that Lender; provided, however, in each such case, that the transferor and the transferee shall have complied with the following requirements:

(a)Agreement; Transfer Fee. Unless the transfer shall be due to merger of the transferor or for regulatory purposes, the transferor (A) shall remit to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an administrative fee of three thousand five hundred 00/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) and (B) shall cause the transferee to execute and deliver to the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent and each Lender an Assignment Agreement, in the form of Exhibit V attached hereto and made a part hereof (an “Assignment Agreement”) together with the consents thereto in writing.

(b)Consent. Except for an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender, any other Lender or any Affiliate of such other Lender, each such assignment shall require the prior written consent of the Borrower and Investment Manager (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and, in the case of any partial assignment (other than to an Affiliate of the transferor Lender), the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders; provided, however, that (x) such consent of the Borrower and Investment Manager shall not be required if an Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing and (y) such consent of the Requisite Lenders shall not be required for an assignment of all (but not less than all) of a Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Advances to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the transferor Lender.

Upon satisfaction of the requirements of this Section 10.1, including the payment of the fee and the delivery of the documents set forth above and the recording of the transfer or assignment in the Register, (A) the transferee shall become and thereafter be deemed to be a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, (B) if the transferor transfers all of its interest, the transferor shall cease to be and thereafter shall no longer be deemed to be a “Lender” and shall have no further rights or obligations under or in connection herewith, and (C) the signature pages hereof and Schedule 1 hereto shall be automatically amended, without further action, to reflect the result of any such transfer.

| 80 |

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article X, the prior written consent of the Borrower and Investment Manager shall, so long as no Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing, be required for an assignment or participation to any assignee or Participant that is a Swiss Non-Qualifying Lender; provided that such a consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and in any event, such consent shall be deemed given if any of the Borrower or Investment Manager, as applicable, does not give its written decision within 10 Business Days after a request for such consent from the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, if any of the Borrower or Investment Manager determines in its reasonable discretion that any assignment or participation would result in noncompliance with the Swiss Non-Bank Rules and/or that the number of Lenders and Participants under this Agreement that are Swiss Non-Qualifying Lenders would exceed the number of ten, then such Borrower’s or Investment Manager’s objection to such assignment or participation shall be deemed to be reasonable.

In the event of a transfer, assignment, novation or amendment of the rights and/or the obligations under this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents, all security interests, guarantees and privileges created under or in connection with the Transaction Documents shall automatically and without any formality be preserved for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the transferee and the other Secured Parties for the purpose of the provisions of articles 1278 to 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code or any other purposes.

Section 10.2.The Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register or similar list (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitment, Percentage, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, with respect to such information, and the Borrower, Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of the Advances recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, Investment Manager or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The parties intend that any interest in or with respect to the Advances under this Agreement be treated as being issued and maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any regulations thereunder (and any successor provisions), including without limitation under United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Regulations Section 1.163-5 (and any successor provisions), and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner that gives effect to such intent.

Section 10.3.Certain Representations and Warranties; Limitations; Covenants. By executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, the parties to the assignment thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:

(a)Other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender makes no representation and warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto;

| 81 |

(b)The assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility of the financial condition of any Trinseo Party or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of any of the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders, or the performance or observance by any Trinseo Party or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable in respect of any of the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders or any of their obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto;

(c)Such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 5.1 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Assignment Agreement;

(d)Such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement;

(e)Such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is a party as are delegated to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof;

(f)Such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; and

(g)Such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment Agreement.

Section 10.4.No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower.

Section 10.5.No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.

Section 10.6.No Assignment to the Parent Guarantor. No such assignment shall be made to the Parent Guarantor or any of its Affiliates.

| 82 |

Section 10.7.Participations. Each Lender shall have the right at any time or times, without the consent of any other party, to sell one or more participations or sub-participations to one or more assignees, in all or any part of that Lender’s Revolving Commitment and Advances made by that Lender other than to a natural Person.

(a)Rights Reserved. In the event any Lender shall sell any participation or sub-participation, that Lender shall, as between itself and the purchaser, retain all of its rights (including, without limitation, rights to enforce against the Borrower the Transaction Documents and any and all other documents in connection therewith) and duties pursuant to the Transaction Documents and any and all other documents in connection therewith, including, without limitation, that Lender’s right to approve any waiver, consent or amendment pursuant to Section 12.1; provided, however, any such participation shall be in a minimum amount of two hundred fifty thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) and (b) any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (i)through (viii)of the first proviso to Section 12.1(b)that directly that affects such Participant. The Borrower and Investment Manager hereby acknowledges and agrees that the participant under each participation (the “Participant”) shall for purposes of Sections 8.3 and 8.5 be considered to be a “Lender”. Except as otherwise set forth herein, no participant shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, the Borrower, Investment Manager and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lenders in connection with the Lenders’ rights and obligations under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 8.5(e), 8.5(g), 8.5(i), 8.5(j), 8.5(k), 8.5(l)and 8.5(m)(it being understood that the documentation required under Sections 8.5(e), 8.5(g)and 8.5(i)shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.1; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 8.5(d)as if it were an assignee under Section 10.1; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.5, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender 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 interpretation of any applicable Law by any Governmental Authority that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register complying with the requirements of Sections 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and the Treasury regulations issued thereunder on which is entered the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Transaction Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Transaction Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under the Code or Treasury Regulations, including without limitation Section 5f.103-1(c) or under Proposed Section 1.163-5 of the United States Treasury Regulations (or, in each case, any amended or successor version) or such Lender’s compliance with Section 10.8. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(b)No Delegation. No participation shall operate as a delegation of any duty of the seller thereof. Under no circumstances shall any participation be deemed a novation in respect of all or any part of the seller’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

| 83 |

Section 10.8.Pledge by Lenders. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X, any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under the Transaction Documents to any of the federal reserve banks organized under Section 4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents.

ARTICLE XI.

GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST

Section 11.1.Grant of Security Interest.

(a)In addition to the interests which the Lenders may from time to time acquire pursuant hereto, the Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing Security Interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under all Pool Receivables now existing or hereafter arising, all Related Security, all Collections, each Transaction Account and other rights and payments relating to such Pool Receivables and Related Security, each Transaction Document (other than this Agreement) and all rights, remedies, powers, privileges and claims thereunder or in respect thereto (whether arising pursuant to the terms thereof or otherwise available to the Borrower at law or equity), including the right to enforce each such Transaction Document and to give or withhold any and all consents, requests, notices, directions, approvals, extensions or waivers under or with respect thereto, to the same extent as the Borrower could but for the collateral assignment and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, in each case, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and all proceeds of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Collateral”), to secure the prompt and complete payment of the Borrower Obligations and the performance of all of the Borrower’s obligations under the Transaction Documents. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized (but not obligated) to file a financing statement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Requisite Lenders naming the Borrower as the debtor and describing the collateral covered thereby as “all assets and the proceeds thereof, whether now existing or hereafter arising.” The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies that it may have under this Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any assets that are subject to a continuing and perfected Security Interest granted in (and only for so long as they are subject to) the Swiss Collateral Documents (such assets, the “Subject Swiss Collateral”) shall not constitute Collateral for purposes of this Article XI and such Subject Swiss Collateral is hereby released from any Security Interest created over it prior to the Original Closing Date under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than the Swiss Collateral Documents); provided, that all rights to payment of money due or to become due pursuant to, and all rights to the proceeds from the sale of, the Subject Swiss Collateral, shall be and at all times constitute “Collateral” and remain subject to the Security Interest created by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than the Swiss Collateral Documents), unless, in each case, such rights independently constitute Subject Swiss Collateral. If, in respect of the Subject Swiss Collateral only, any inconsistency exists between this Article XI or any other Transaction Document (other than the Swiss Collateral Documents) and any provision of the Swiss Collateral Documents, the provisions of the Swiss Collateral Documents shall prevail.

| 84 |

Section 11.2.Attachment. The Borrower agrees that the security interests created by this Agreement are intended to attach (a) with respect to Collateral that is now in existence, upon execution of this Agreement, and (b) with respect to Collateral that comes into existence in the future, upon the Borrower acquiring rights in the Collateral or the power to transfer rights in the Collateral to the Collateral Agent. In each case, the parties do not intend to postpone the attachment of any security interests created by this Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges that (a) value has been given, (b) the Borrower has rights in the Collateral (other than after-acquired Collateral) in which it has granted a security interest hereunder and (c) this Agreement constitutes a “security agreement” as that term is defined in the UCC.

ARTICLE XII.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 12.1.Waivers and Amendments.

(a)No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of the Lenders in exercising any power, right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or remedy preclude any other further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. Any waiver of this Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

This Agreement and the provisions hereof may only be amended, supplemented, modified or waived in a writing signed by the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Requisite Lenders; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender, do any of the following:

(i)waive any of the conditions specified in Sections 4.1 or 4.2 except with respect to a condition based upon another provision hereof, the waiver of which requires only the concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that any Lender may waive any of the conditions specified in Section 4.2 with respect to its own funding of Advances;

(ii)change the order of priority in which Collections are applied pursuant to Section 2.1;

(iii)increase any Revolving Commitment of any Lender or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations;

(vii)reduce or postpone any scheduled date fixed for payment of interest or fees to such Lender;

(ix)change (directly or indirectly) the definitions of Defaulted Receivable, Eligible Receivable, Facility Limit, Final Payout Date or Required Reserves contained in this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not limit the discretion of the Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders) or the Requisite Lenders to change, establish or eliminate any Reserves in its Permitted Discretion; or

(x)amend this Section 12.1 or the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders.”

Except as provided in this Section 12.2, all communications and notices provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including email, bank wire, facsimile or electronic transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to the other parties hereto at their respective addresses, email addresses or facsimile numbers set forth on Schedule 12.2 hereto or at such other address, email address or facsimile number as such Person may hereafter specify in writing for the purpose of notice to each of the other parties hereto. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective (a) if given by facsimile or email, upon the receipt thereof, (b) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after the time such communication is deposited in the mail with first class postage prepaid or (c) if given by any other means, when received at the address specified in this Section 12.2.

Section 12.3.Setoff; Ratable Payments.

(a)If an Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to such Lender or its respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.

| 86 |

(b)The rights of each Lender and its respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower, the Investment Manager, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The provisions of this Section 12.3 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower or the Investment Manager pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement.

(c)If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has received payments (other than payments received pursuant to Section 8.3) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender entitled to receive a ratable share of such payments, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase for cash without recourse or warranty a portion of such payments held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of such payment; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
