Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 5, 2020, PG&E AR Facility LLC (the “SPV”), a special purpose entity wholly owned by Pacific Gas and Electric Company (the “Utility”), the Utility, in its individual capacity, in its capacity as initial servicer (the “Servicer”) and in its capacity as originator (the “Originator”), entered into an accounts receivable securitization program (the “Receivables Securitization Program”). Pursuant to the Receivables Securitization Program, (i) the Servicer, the SPV, as borrower, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto and listed therein as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”), MUFG Bank, Ltd., as administrative agent (“MUFG”) entered into a Receivables Financing Agreement dated as of October 5, 2020 (the “Receivables Financing Agreement”), (ii) the Originator, the Servicer and the SPV, as buyer, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of October 5, 2020 (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), (iii) the Utility and MUFG entered into a Pledge Agreement dated as of October 5, 2020 (the “Pledge Agreement”) and (iv) the Utility, MUFG and each trustee, indenture trustee, lender administrative agent, collateral agent, purchaser or other party described in Exhibit A therein entered into a Collection Account Intercreditor Agreement dated as of October 5, 2020 (the “Collection Account Intercreditor Agreement”). Under the Receivables Securitization Program, the Originator, pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, will sell certain of its receivables and certain related rights to payment and obligations of Originator with respect to such receivables and certain other related rights (collectively, the “Receivables”) to the SPV, which, in turn, will obtain loans secured by the Receivables from the Lenders. Pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, the Utility pledged to the Lenders under the Receivables Financing Agreement 100% of the equity interests in the SPV as security for the repayment of the obligations under the Receivables Financing Agreement.

Pursuant to the Receivables Securitization Program, the aggregate principal amount of the loans made by the Lenders will not exceed $1,000,000,000 outstanding at any time. The Lenders under the Receivables Securitization Program receive interest based on a spread over LIBOR dependent on the tranche period thereto and any breakage fees accrued. The Receivables Financing Agreement contains customary LIBOR benchmark replacement language giving MUFG, with consent from the SPV as to the successor rate, the right to determine such successor rate. Additionally, MUFG receives certain fees as agent.

The Receivables Securitization Program contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants, including as to the eligibility of the Receivables being sold by the Originator and securing the loans made by the Lenders, as well as customary reserve requirements, Receivables Securitization Program termination events, Originator termination events and servicer defaults. The Receivables Securitization Program termination events permit the Lenders to terminate the Receivables Financing Agreement upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including failure by the SPV to pay amounts when due, certain defaults on indebtedness under the Utility’s credit facility, certain judgments, a change of control, certain events negatively affecting the overall credit quality of transferred Receivables and bankruptcy and insolvency events.

The Receivables Securitization Program is scheduled to terminate on October 5, 2022, unless extended or earlier terminated, at which time no further advances will be available and the obligations thereunder repaid in full by no later than (i) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days following such date or (ii) such earlier date on which the loans under the Receivables Securitization Program become due and payable.

The proceeds from the sale of Receivables pursuant to the Receivables Securitization Program may be used to fund capital expenditures, maturing debt obligations, as well as working capital and other approved uses.

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Receivables Financing Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Collection Account Intercreditor Agreement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Receivables Financing Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and the Collection Account Intercreditor Agreement, which are attached as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2, Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 10.3, respectively, hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

and the Beneficial Ownership Rule, (iii) the ratings by Moody’s and S&P of the continuing or surviving corporation’s or purchaser’s senior, secured debt shall be at least the higher of (A) Baa3 from Moody’s and BBB- from S&P and (B) the ratings by such rating agencies of the Pledgor’s senior, secured debt in effect before the earlier of the occurrence or the public announcement of such event and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received such certificates, documents, instruments, agreements and opinions of counsel (which shall be addressed to Administrative Agent and all Lenders) as it shall reasonably request, including as to the necessity and adequacy of any new UCC financing statements or amendments to existing UCC financing statements.

(e) The Pledgor shall not change its jurisdiction of organization or its name, identity or corporate organization structure or make any other change such that any financing statement filed or other action taken to perfect Administrative Agent’s interests hereunder would become seriously misleading or would otherwise be rendered ineffective, unless (i) except as required by the CPUC or other Governmental Authority, no Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default, Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or would result immediately after giving effect thereto, (ii) to the extent requested by Administrative Agent or any Group Agent, the Pledgor shall have promptly provided to Administrative Agent or such Group Agent all documentation and other information that may be required by Administrative Agent or such Group Agent in order to enable compliance with applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including information required by the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Rule and (iii) Administrative Agent has received such certificates, documents, instruments, agreements and opinions of counsel (which shall be addressed to Administrative Agent and all Lenders) as they shall reasonably request, including as to the necessity and adequacy of any new UCC financing statements or amendments to existing UCC financing statements.

(g) The Pledgor shall not, and shall not permit the Borrower to, amend, modify, waive, revoke or terminate any provision of the Limited Liability Company Agreement or the Certificate of Formation (as defined therein) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Majority Group Agents.

6. UCC Article 8 Matters. During the term of this Agreement, the Pledgor shall not permit the Borrower to treat uncertificated ownership interests as securities which are subject to Article 8 of the UCC.

7. Other Rights With Respect to Pledged Collateral. In addition to the other rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, at any time and from time to time, after and during the continuation of an Event of Default or a Termination Event, the Administrative Agent, at its option and at the expense of the Pledgor, may, subject to the receipt of any approval or consent (if any) required by the CPUC, (i) transfer into its own name,

or into the name of its nominee, all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, thereafter receiving all dividends, income or other distributions upon the Pledged Collateral; (ii) take control of and manage all or any of the Pledged Collateral; (iii) apply to the payment of any of the Secured Obligations, whether any be due and payable or not, any moneys, including cash dividends and income from any Pledged Collateral, now or hereafter in the hands of the Administrative Agent, on deposit or otherwise, belonging to the Pledgor, as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine; and (iv) do anything which the Pledgor is required but fails to do hereunder.

8. Additional Remedies Upon Event of Default; Application of Proceeds.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and while such Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or other Applicable Law, and in addition to its rights under Section 7 above and under the other Transaction Documents, the following rights and remedies:

(b) The Administrative Agent may, subject to the receipt of any approval or consent (if any) required by the CPUC, sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of the Pledgor’s Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent shall give the Pledgor ten (10) days’ written notice (which the Pledgor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Administrative Agent’s intention to make any sale of Pledged Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Pledged Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales of the Pledged Collateral to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or ownership interests for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agree that any such private sale is commercially reasonable manner to make such a sale. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit Pledgor (or Borrower) to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933 or under applicable securities laws, even if Pledgor (or Borrower) would agree to do so.

(c) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell all or any of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to Section 8(a), the Pledgor agrees that, upon request of the Administrative Agent, the Pledgor will, at its own expense, execute and deliver, and cause the Borrower and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be

necessary or, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, advisable to make such sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof valid and binding and in compliance with Applicable Law. The Pledgor further acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages that would be suffered by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties by reason of the failure by the Pledgor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section and consequently agrees that, if the Pledgor shall fail to perform any of such covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value (as determined by the Administrative Agent) of such Pledged Collateral on the date the Administrative Agent shall demand compliance with this Section.

(d) Any proceeds from liquidation of the Pledged Collateral shall be applied in the order of priority set forth in Section 3.01 of the Receivables Financing Agreement.

9. Administrative Agent’s Duties. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Pledged Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Pledged Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Pledged Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Pledged Collateral.

10. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided under the other Transaction Documents or by Applicable Law. The Pledgor waives any right to require the Administrative Agent to proceed against any other Person or to exhaust any of the Pledged Collateral or other security for the Secured Obligations or to pursue any remedy in the Administrative Agent’s power.

11. No Discharge Until Indefeasible Payment of the Secured Obligations. The pledge, security interests, and other Adverse Claims and the obligations of the Pledgor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise diminished by any failure, default, omission, or delay, willful or otherwise, by the Administrative Agent, or any other obligor on any of the Secured Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Pledgor or which would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Pledgor as a matter of law or equity. Should any part of the Secured Obligations be payable in installments, the acceptance by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party at any time and from time to time of partial payment of the aggregate amount of all installments then matured shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any default then existing. The Pledgor hereby consents to, and the pledge, security interests, and other Adverse Claims given by the Pledgor hereunder shall not be diminished, terminated, or otherwise similarly affected by any of the following at any time and from time to time:

(a) any right to any marshalling of assets or any avoidance or subordination, in whole or in part, of any Transaction Document, any obligations in connection with any of the Secured Obligations and regardless of any law, regulation, or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of the Secured Obligations, any of the terms of the Transaction Documents, or any rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Person with respect thereto;

(b) any increase, decrease, or change in the amount, nature, type or purpose of any of or any release, surrender, exchange, compromise or settlement of any of the Secured Obligations (whether or not contemplated by the Transaction Documents as presently constituted); any change in the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, any of the Secured Obligations; any execution or delivery of any additional Transaction Documents; or any amendment, modification or supplement to, or refinancing or refunding of, any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations;

(c) any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or in circumstances in which any condition to such extensions of credit has not been satisfied; any other exercise or non-exercise, or any other failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action in connection with any exercise or non-exercise, of any right or remedy against the Pledgor or any other Person under or in connection with any Transaction Document; any refusal of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, whether or not with any reservation of rights against the Pledgor; or any application of collections (including collections resulting from realization upon any direct or indirect security for the Secured Obligations) to other obligations, if any, not entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, in preference to Secured Obligations or, if any collections are applied to Secured Obligations, any application to particular Secured Obligations;

(d) any taking, exchange, amendment, modification, supplement, termination, subordination, release, loss, or impairment of, or any failure to protect, perfect, or preserve the value of, or any enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or any failure, omission, breach, default, delay, or wrongful action by the Administrative Agent or any other Person in connection with the enforcement of, realization upon, or exercise of rights or remedies under or in connection with, or, any other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or any other Person in respect of, any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations (including the Pledged Collateral). As used in this Agreement, “direct or indirect security” for the Secured Obligations, and similar phrases, includes any collateral security, guaranty, suretyship, letter of credit, capital maintenance agreement, put option, subordination agreement, or other right or arrangement of any nature providing direct or indirect assurance of payment or performance of any of the Secured Obligations, made by or on behalf of any Person;

(f) any defense, setoff, or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Pledgor or the Borrower or any other Person with respect to any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations; or any discharge by operation of law or release of the Pledgor or the Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations;

(g) any other event or circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, and whether known or unknown, which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or limit the liability of a guarantor or a surety, including the Pledgor, excepting only payment in full of the Secured Obligations.

12. Taxes. The Pledgor hereby agrees to be bound by the provisions of Section 4.03 of the Receivables Financing Agreement and shall make all payments free and clear of Taxes as provided therein.

13. Waivers. The Pledgor hereby waives any and all defenses which the Pledgor may now or hereafter have based on principles of suretyship, impairment of collateral, or the like and the Pledgor hereby waives any defense to or limitation on its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in the immediately preceding section hereof. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Pledgor hereby further waives each of the following:

(a) all notices, disclosures and demands of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against the Pledgor, including the following: any notice of any event or circumstance described in the immediately preceding section hereof; any notice required by any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction; any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest under any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations; any notice of the incurrence of any Secured Obligations; any notice of any default or any failure on the part of the Pledgor or the Borrower or any other Person to comply with any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any requirement pertaining to any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; and any notice or other information pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise), or prospects of the Borrower or any other Person;

(b) any right to any marshalling of assets or to the exercise against such the Pledgor or the Borrower, or any other Person of any other right or remedy under or in connection with any Transaction Document, or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any requirement of promptness or diligence on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Person; any requirement to exhaust any remedies under or in connection with, or to mitigate the damages resulting from default under, any Transaction Document or any of the Secured Obligations or any direct or indirect security for any of the Secured Obligations; any benefit of any statute of limitations; and any requirement of acceptance of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and any requirement that the Pledgor receive notice of any such acceptance; and

(c) any defense or other right arising by reason of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws, or the like), or by reason of any election of remedies or other action or inaction by the Administrative Agent (including commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security for any of the Secured Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent to seek a deficiency against the Borrower or any other Person or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of the Secured Obligations.

14. Setoff. Pledgor hereby waives and releases, and shall not assert, any and all rights of setoff and any similar claims or actions whatsoever now and hereafter it may have at any time against the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, any of the Administrative Agent’s or any Secured Party’s Affiliates, and any of the respective successors, assigns, and participants of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party. Each Secured Party is hereby authorized (in addition to any other rights it may have) to setoff, appropriate and apply (without presentment, demand, protest or other notice which are hereby expressly waived) any deposits and any other indebtedness held or owing by such Secured Party (including by any branches or agencies of such Secured Party) to, or for the account of, the Pledgor against amounts owing by the Pledgor hereunder (even if contingent or unmatured).

15. Assignment. All rights of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of its permitted successors and assigns. All obligations of the Pledgor shall bind its successors and assigns; provided, however, the Pledgor may not assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations hereunder or any interest herein, and any such purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void.

16. Severability. Any provisions of this Agreement which are prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

17. Notices. All notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications (collectively, “notices”) given to or made upon any party hereto under the provisions of this Agreement shall be as set forth in the Receivables Financing Agreement.

18. Specific Performance. The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to the other rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents, because the Administrative Agent’s remedies at law for failure of the Pledgor to comply with the provisions hereof relating to the Administrative Agent’s rights (i) to inspect the books and records related to the Pledged Collateral; (ii) to receive the various notifications the Pledgor is required to deliver hereunder; (iii) to obtain copies of agreements and documents as provided herein with respect to the Pledged Collateral; (iv) to enforce the provisions hereof pursuant to which the

Pledgor has appointed the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact; and (v) to enforce the Administrative Agent’s remedies hereunder, would be inadequate and that any such failure would not be adequately compensable in damages, the Pledgor agrees that each such provision hereof may be specifically enforced.

19. Voting Rights in Respect of the Pledged Collateral.

(a) So long as no Event of Default or Termination Event shall occur and be continuing under the Receivables Financing Agreement, the Pledgor may exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. The Pledgor shall not vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, the Borrower to issue any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature or to issue any other securities, shares, capital stock, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock, member interests, partnership interests or other equity securities, member interests, partnership interests or other ownership interests of any nature of the Borrower or to enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of the Pledgor or the Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Collateral.

(b) The Pledgor agrees:

(i) promptly upon receipt of notice of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or a Termination Event from the Administrative Agent and without any request therefor by the Administrative Agent, so long as such Event of Default or Termination Event shall continue, to, subject to the receipt of any approval or consent (if any) required by the CPUC, deliver (properly endorsed where required hereby or requested by the Administrative Agent) to the Administrative Agent all dividends and distributions (whether in the form of cash, additional equity interests or other property) with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all other proceeds of the Pledged Collateral, in each case thereafter received by the Pledgor after such notice, all of which shall be held by the Administrative Agent as additional Pledged Collateral; and

(ii) subject, in the case of a membership interest of the Borrower, to any modifications to the respective constituent documents of the Borrower to admit the Administrative Agent as a member immediately upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or a Termination Event and so long as the Administrative Agent has notified the Pledgor of the Administrative Agent’s intention to exercise its voting power under this Section:

that the Administrative Agent may, subject to the receipt of any approval or consent (if any) required by the CPUC, exercise (to the exclusion of the Pledgor) the voting power and all other incidental rights of ownership with respect to any investment property constituting Pledged Collateral and the Pledgor hereby grants the Administrative Agent an irrevocable proxy, exercisable under such circumstances, to vote such investment property; and

to, subject to the receipt of any approval or consent (if any) required by the CPUC, promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional proxies and other documents as may be necessary to allow the Administrative Agent to exercise such voting power.

All dividends and distributions (whether in the form of cash, additional equity interests or other property), and other proceeds which may at any time and from time to time be held by the Pledgor but which the Pledgor is obligated to deliver to the Administrative Agent, shall, until delivery to the Administrative Agent, be held by the Pledgor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees that unless an Event of Default or a Termination Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given the applicable notice referred to in clause (b) above, (x) the Pledgor will have the exclusive voting power with respect to any investment property constituting Pledged Collateral and the Administrative Agent will, upon the written request of the Pledgor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as shall be reasonably requested by the Pledgor which are necessary to allow the Pledgor to exercise that voting power; provided that no vote shall be cast, or consent, waiver, or ratification given, or action taken by the Pledgor that could reasonably be expected to impair any Pledged Collateral or be inconsistent with or violate any provision of any Transaction Document, and (y) the Pledgor shall be entitled to retain all dividends and distributions with respect to the Pledged Collateral.

20. Subrogation. Notwithstanding a foreclosure upon any of the Pledged Collateral or exercise of any other remedy by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party during the existence of any Event of Default or Termination Event: (i) Pledgor shall not be subrogated thereby to any rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against the Pledged Collateral or any other security for the Secured Obligations, or the Pledgor, or any property of the Pledgor; nor (ii) shall the Pledgor be deemed to be the owner of any interest in the Secured Obligations; nor (iii) shall the Pledgor exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Pledgor or the Pledged Collateral or any other security for the Secured Obligations or any of them or the property of the Pledgor until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, unless otherwise requested in writing to do so by the Administrative Agent.

21. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PERFECTION, THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR PRIORITY OF THE INTERESTS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE PLEDGED COLLATERAL IS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK).

22. CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. (a) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY NEW YORK STATE OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY

IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE PLEDGOR OR ANY OF ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS. THE PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY EFFECTIVELY DO SO, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

(b) THE PLEDGOR CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES OF SUCH PROCESS TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES SPECIFIED IN THE RECEIVABLES FINANCING AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS SECTION SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

23. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT.

24. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

25. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page or any other electronic means as provided in the immediately following sentence shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart hereof. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include an electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to, or associated with, a contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

26. Construction. The rules of construction contained in Section 1.02 of the Receivables Financing Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference mutatis mutandis.

27. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent conveyance”, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

ARTICLE II

AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE, SELL AND CONTRIBUTE

SECTION 2.1 Purchase, Sale and Contribution. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Originator hereby sells and, in the case of PG&E, contributes, as applicable, to Buyer, and Buyer hereby purchases or acquires from each Originator, as applicable, all of such Originator’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Receivables and the Related Rights, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, acquired, or originated.

SECTION 2.2 Timing of Purchases. All of the Receivables and the Related Rights existing at the opening of each Originator’s business on the Closing Date are hereby sold or contributed, as applicable, to Buyer on such date in accordance with the terms hereof. On and after the Closing Date until the Sale Termination Date, each Receivable arising after the Closing Date shall be deemed to have been sold or contributed to Buyer immediately (and without further action by any Person) upon the creation or acquisition of such Receivable by the respective Originator. In respect of (i) purchases on the Closing Date sold by such Originator hereunder, Buyer shall pay the respective Originators the applicable cash Purchase Price for the Receivables and the Related Rights on the Closing Date and (ii) purchases of Receivables originated on or after the Closing Date and the Related Rights, Buyer shall pay the respective Originators the applicable cash Purchase Price on such day; provided, however, in the case of clause (i) and clause (ii), to the extent that Buyer does not have funds available to pay the Purchase Price due on any day in cash (such cash insufficiency being a “Deferred Payment”), then until such Deferred Payment is made in cash, the Deferred Payment shall be deemed principal, as applicable to each Originator, of the respective Subordinated Notes, subject to the limitation in Section 2.3(d) below. The Related Rights with respect to each Receivable shall be sold or contributed at the same time as such Receivable, whether such Related Rights exist at such time or arise, are acquired or are originated thereafter by the respective Originator.

SECTION 2.3 Purchase Price. (a) The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Receivables and the Related Rights shall equal the fair market value of the Receivables and the Related Rights as agreed by each Originator and Buyer at the time of purchase or acquisition, determined in accordance with the following formula:


		PP =		UB x FMVD

		where:

		PP =		Purchase Price for each Receivable as calculated on the relevant Payment Date

		UB =		Unpaid Balance of such Receivable on the relevant Payment Date

		FMVD =		Fair Market Value Discount, as measured on such Payment Date, which is equal to 97.26%; provided that such discount may be updated by the Originators and the Buyer from time to time to reflect the then current fair market value of the Receivables.

“Payment Date” means (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each Business Day thereafter that the Originators are open for business. The Purchase Price shall not be adjusted or modified after the applicable purchase date.

(b) On the date of the initial purchase, PG&E shall contribute Receivables and the Related Rights to Buyer as a capital contribution in the amount set forth in a written notice on the date thereof from PG&E to Buyer and Administrative Agent.

(c) Buyer shall pay the related Originator the Purchase Price with respect to each non-contributed Receivable and the Related Rights, created or acquired by such Originator on the date of purchase thereof as set forth above by transfer of funds, to the extent that Buyer has funds available for that purpose after satisfying Buyer’s obligations under the Receivables Financing Agreement and such payment is not prohibited under the Transaction Documents.

(d) In the case of any Originator (including, in this capacity, PG&E), to the extent that Buyer does not have funds available to pay the Purchase Price due on any day in cash, Buyer shall execute and deliver in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit 2.3(d), a subordinated promissory note (each, a “Subordinated Note”) in a principal amount equal to such Deferred Payment and payable to the order of such Originator, or shall increase the principal amount of any outstanding Subordinated Note to such Originator by the amount of any Deferred Payment; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of the Subordinated Notes shall not at any time exceed or be permitted to exceed the maximum amount on the Subordinated Notes that could be owed without rendering Borrower’s Net Worth less than the Required Capital Amount. Each Originator is hereby authorized by Buyer to endorse on the schedule attached to its Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto, provided that the failure to make such notation shall not affect any obligation of Buyer thereunder.

(e) To the extent (i) Buyer does not have funds available to pay the Purchase Price due on any day in cash and (ii) any Subordinated Note may not be increased as provided in clause (d) above, PG&E, as an Originator hereunder and as sole member of the Buyer, may elect in its sole discretion to treat Receivables and Related Rights allocable to any Deferred Payment to have been transferred by PG&E to Buyer as a capital contribution, in return for an increase in the value of the equity interest in Buyer held by PG&E. PG&E may also, at its option in its sole discretion, contribute cash or cash equivalents to Buyer in return for an increase in the value of the equity interest in Buyer held by PG&E. Servicer may evidence PG&E’s election to treat all or any portion of a Deferred Payment as a capital contribution by recording it as such on the books and records of Buyer as maintained by the Servicer, and no further notice or acceptance of any such contribution shall be necessary. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require PG&E to make any capital contribution to the Buyer. PG&E and Buyer shall each record on its respective books and records any capital contribution made by PG&E to Buyer promptly following its occurrence.

SECTION 2.4 No Recourse or Assumption of Obligations. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the purchase and sale or contribution, as applicable, of Receivables and Related Rights under this Agreement shall be without recourse to any Originator. Each Originator and Buyer intend the transactions hereunder to constitute absolute and irrevocable true sales or valid contributions of Receivables and the Related Rights by each Originator to Buyer, providing Buyer with the full risks and benefits of ownership of the Receivables and Related Rights (such that the Receivables and the Related Rights would not be property of any Originator’s estate in the event of such Originator’s bankruptcy).

None of Buyer, Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the other Affected Persons shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivables or Related Rights, nor shall Buyer, Administrative Agent, any Lender or the other Affected Persons have any obligation or liability to any Obligor or other customer or client of any Originator (including any obligation to perform any of the obligations of any Originator under any Receivables or Related Rights).

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION

SECTION 3.1 PG&E to Act as Servicer, Contracts. (a) PG&E shall be responsible for the servicing, administration and collection of the Receivables and the Related Rights for the benefit of Buyer and for the benefit of Administrative Agent (as Buyer’s assignee) on behalf of the Lenders, all on the terms set out in (and subject to any rights to terminate PG&E as Servicer and appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to) the Receivables Financing Agreement.

(w) No Linked Accounts. Except for the Servicer’s Accounts, there are no “Linked Accounts” (as defined in the applicable Account Control Agreement) with respect to any Account maintained at any Account Bank.

(x) ERISA. No Reportable Event has occurred during prior five years with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except, in each case, to the extent that any such Reportable Event or failure to comply with the applicable provisions of ERISA or the Code could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. During the prior five years, there has been no (i) failure to make a required contribution to any Plan that would result in the imposition of an Adverse Claim or other encumbrance or the provision of security under Section 430 of the Code or Section 303 or 4068 of ERISA, or the arising of such an Adverse Claim; or (ii) “unpaid minimum required contribution” or “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined or otherwise set forth in Section 4971 of the Code or Part 3 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA), whether or not waived, except, in each case, to the extent that such event could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Adverse Claim in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during the prior five-years.

Neither any PG&E Party nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan during the prior five years that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither any PG&E Party nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any liability under ERISA if any PG&E Party or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No such Multiemployer Plan is in endangered or critical status (within the meaning of Section 305 of ERISA) or in Insolvency.

(y) No Fraudulent Conveyance. No sale or contribution hereunder constitutes a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under any United States federal or applicable state bankruptcy or insolvency laws or is otherwise void or voidable under such or similar laws or principles or for any other reason.

(z) No Event of Default or Termination Event. No event has occurred and is continuing and no condition exists, or would result from the sale, transfer and assignment or contribution of the Receivables originated by such Originator, that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default, a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event.

(aa) Other Transaction Documents. Each representation and warranty made by such Originator under each other Transaction Document to which it is a party is true and correct in all material respects as of the date when made.

(bb) Regulatory Matters. Solely as a result of the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and of this Agreement and the performance of the respective parties’ obligations thereunder, none of the Credit Parties shall be or become subject to regulation (i) under the FPA or (ii) as a “public utility” or “public service corporation” or the equivalent under any Applicable Law, including the California Public Utilities Code.

At its expense, timely and fully perform and comply in all material respects with all provisions, covenants and other promises required to be observed by it under the Contracts and the Receivables, to the same extent as if such Originator’s Receivables had not been sold or contributed, as applicable, hereunder and the exercise by each of Buyer, Servicer, Administrative Agent or any of their respective designees of its rights hereunder or under the Receivables Financing Agreement shall not relieve such Originator from such obligations.

(e) Location of Records. Keep its chief executive office and principal place of business, and the primary offices where it keeps its Records (and original documents relating thereto), at the address of such Originator referred to in Annex 1 or at such other locations in jurisdictions where all action required by Section 7.02 of the Receivables Financing Agreement shall have been taken and completed.

(f) Credit and Collection Policy. Timely and fully comply with the Credit and Collection Policy in all material respects with regard to each Receivable sold or contributed by it hereunder and the related Contract.

(g) Payments on Receivables, Accounts. At all times, instruct all Obligors to deliver payments on the Receivables directly to a Collection Account or a Lock-Box. Each Originator will (i) cause Collections in an amount equal to the Initial Transfer Amount to be transferred to the Borrower Accounts on each Business Day, (ii) at any time that a Stop Sweeping Event has occurred and is continuing, for each Business Day cause Collections in an amount equal to the Remaining Transfer Amount for such Business Day to be transferred to the Borrower Accounts no later than five (5) Business

Days after such Business Day and (iii) at any time that a Stop Sweeping Event has occurred and is continuing, retain in the Collection Accounts all Collections with respect to the Receivables until such Collections have been transferred directly from the Collection Accounts to the Borrower Accounts (either as an Initial Transfer Amount or as a Remaining Transfer Amount). The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that for administrative convenience, so long as a Stop Sweeping Event has not occurred and is continuing, that Collections in an amount equal to the Remaining Transfer Amount for such Business Day need not be transferred to the Borrower Accounts but instead shall be retained by the Servicer and distributed to the Originators in partial payment for the Receivables purchased by the Buyer on such date from the Originators in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Originator will, at all times, maintain such books and records necessary to (i) identify Collections received from time to time on Receivables, (ii) segregate Collections on Receivables from Non-Securitization Collections and all other funds, (iii) identify Non-Securitization Collections received from time to time and the Non-Securitization Receivable to which each portion of Non-Securitization Collections relate and (iv) promptly remit Collections on Receivables to a Borrower Account. If any payments on the Receivables or other Collections are received by any Originator, it shall hold such payments in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Group Agents and the other Secured Parties and promptly (but in any event within two (2) Business Days after receipt) remit such funds into a Collection Account; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments on the Receivables or other Collections are not remitted by an Obligor directly into a Collection Account or a Lock-Box, the applicable Originator (or the Servicer on its behalf) shall notify the applicable Obligor of such failure and shall take commercially reasonable action to ensure that future payments on Receivables owing by such Obligor are remitted by such Obligor directly to a Collection Account or a Lock-Box. Each Originator will cause each Account Bank to comply with the terms of each applicable Account Control Agreement. No Originator will permit funds other than (i) Collections on Receivables and Related Rights to be deposited into any Borrower Account or (ii) Non-Securitization Collections and Collections on Receivables and Related Rights to be deposited into any Collection Account. If such funds are nevertheless deposited into any Account, the applicable Originator (or the Servicer on its behalf) will within two (2) Business Days transfer such funds to the appropriate Person entitled to such funds. No Originator shall terminate an Account Bank or close an Account (or a related Lock-Box), in each case, with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Each Originator shall ensure that no disbursements are made from (i) any Borrower Account, other than such disbursements that are made at the direction and for the account of the Borrower or (ii) any Collection Account, other than (x) the transfer of Collections out of the Collection Accounts and (y) the transfer of Non-Securitization Collections out of the Collection Accounts.

(h) Frequency of Billing. Prepare and deliver (or cause to be prepared and delivered) invoices with respect to all Receivables in accordance with the Credit and Collection Policy, but in any event no less frequently than as required under the Contract related to such Receivable.

Each Originator will at all times, take commercially reasonable actions to ensure that on and after the Closing Date that no funds are deposited into (i) any Borrower Account other than Collections on Receivables or (ii) any Collection Account other than Collections on Receivables and Non-Securitization Collections. In the event that 10.0% or more of the aggregate amount of all funds deposited into the Collection Accounts during each of two consecutive calendar months constitute Miscellaneous Collections, each Originator shall (i) within sixty (60) days notify the obligors of the Miscellaneous Items to cease remitting Miscellaneous Collections to the Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes and (ii) take commercially reasonable action to ensure that future payments on Miscellaneous Items are not remitted directly to any Collection Account or any Lock-Box.

(j) Taxes. Each Originator will pay all taxes due and payable or any other tax assessments made against such Originator or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any of their respective property by any Governmental Authority (other than (i) any amounts the validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of such Originator or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, as applicable or (ii) where the failure to effect such payment could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to such Originator).

(k) Accounting. Other than for consolidated accounting purposes, such Originator will not account for or treat the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than as a sale or contribution (as applicable) of Receivables and the Related Rights by such Originator to the Buyer; provided that solely for federal income tax reporting purposes, the Buyer is treated as a “disregarded entity” of PG&E and, therefore, the conveyance of Receivables and Related Rights by PG&E to the Buyer hereunder will not be recognized.

(l) Federal Assignment of Claims Act; Etc. Subject to the receipt of any consent required by the CPUC, if requested by the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Termination Event, prepare and make any filings under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act (or any other similar Applicable Law) with respect to Government Receivables, that are necessary or desirable in order for the Administrative Agent to enforce such Government Receivable against the Obligor thereof.

(m) Security Interest, Etc. Each Originator shall, at its expense, take (ii) all action necessary or desirable to establish and maintain a valid and enforceable first priority perfected security interest in the Collection Accounts, in each case free and clear of any Adverse Claim, in favor of the Collection Account Agent (on behalf of the Intercreditor Agreement Secured Parties), including taking such action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interest of the Collection Account Agent (on behalf of the Intercreditor Agreement Secured Parties) as the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may reasonably request. In order to evidence the security interests of the Collection Account Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement, each Originator shall, from time to time take such action, or execute and deliver such instruments as may be necessary (including, without limitation, such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent) to maintain and perfect, as a first-priority interest, the Collection Account Agent’s security interest in the Collection Accounts.

(n) Linked Accounts. Except for the Servicer’s Accounts, no Originator shall permit any “Linked Account” to exist with respect to any Account; provided, however, that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, a Termination Event or a Ratings Event, the Originators shall, if so instructed by the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion), cause each Servicer’s Account to cease being a “Linked Account” promptly, but not later than 2 Business Days following the Originators’ receipt of such instruction. The Servicer shall at all times ensure that (i) the account balance in each Servicer’s Account is greater than zero and will exceed the aggregate amount of all “Settlement Items” (as defined in the applicable Account Control Agreement) at any time outstanding with respect to such Servicer’s Account and (ii) no amount will be debited against any Account as a result of any “Settlement Item” that originated in any Servicer’s Account or any other account other than an Account.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, PG&E AR Facility, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Buyer”), promises to pay to [________________, a ________________] (“Company”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Purchase and Sale Agreement referred to below, the aggregate unpaid purchase price of all Receivables and Related Rights purchased, acquired and to be purchased or acquired by Buyer pursuant to the Receivables Sale Agreement. Such amount as shown in the records of the Servicer shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the principal amount owing under this note (this “Note”).

1. Purchase and Sale Agreement. This note (this “Note”) is one of the Subordinated Notes described in Section 2.3(d) of, and is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of October 5, 2020 (as the same may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified in accordance with its terms, the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”), among Buyer, as Originator, the Originators party thereto, the Servicer and Buyer. Reference is hereby made to the Purchase and Sale Agreement for a statement of certain other rights and obligations of Buyer and Company. In the case of any conflict between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement shall control.

2. Definitions; Interpretation.

“Senior Interest Holders” means, collectively, each Lender, each Group Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Affected Persons (each as defined in the Receivables Financing Agreement) and their permitted assigns.

“Subordination Provisions” is defined in Section 7 hereof.

3. Interest. Subject to the Subordination Provisions, Buyer promises to pay interest on the aggregate unpaid principal amount of this Note outstanding on each interest payment date as set forth in Section 4 hereof at a variable rate equal to the sum of one-month Adjusted LIBOR plus 1% per annum.

4. Interest Payment Dates. Subject to the Subordination Provisions, Buyer shall pay accrued interest on this Note for each Settlement Period on each Settlement Date (or on such earlier date as Buyer may elect from time to time) and on the Final Maturity Date (as defined in the Receivables Financing Agreement) (or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day). Buyer also shall pay accrued interest on the principal amount of each prepayment hereof on the date of each such prepayment.

5. Basis of Computation. Interest accrued hereunder shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year.

6. Principal Payment Dates. Subject to the Subordination Provisions, any unpaid principal of this Note shall be paid on the Final Maturity Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to the Subordination Provisions, the principal amount of and accrued interest on this Note may be prepaid on any Business Day without premium or penalty.

7. Subordination Provisions. The obligations under this Note are expressly subordinated in right of payment to the payment and performance of the Senior Interests, and any payment hereunder is pari passu in right of payment and performance to all other Junior Liabilities, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the following clauses of this Section 7 (the “Subordination Provisions”). Buyer covenants and agrees, and Company and any other assignee, transferee or pledgee of this Note (collectively, Company and any such other assignee, transferee or pledgee are called the “Holder”), by its acceptance of any sale, assignment, transfer or pledge of this Note, shall be deemed conclusively to have agreed for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, to the Subordination Provisions and the Company and each Holder by its acceptance of this Note shall be bound by such provisions:

(a) No payment or other distribution of Buyer’s assets of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities, or other rights or property, shall be made on account of this Note except to the extent such payment or other distribution is either (i) permitted under the Receivables Financing Agreement or (ii) made on or after the Final Maturity Date.

(b) (i) In the event of any dissolution, winding up, liquidation, readjustment, reorganization or other similar event relating to Buyer, whether voluntary or involuntary, partial or complete, and whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of Buyer or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Buyer (such proceedings being herein

Exhibit 2.3(d), Page 2

collectively called “Bankruptcy Proceedings”), and (ii) on and after the occurrence of the related Sale Termination Date, the Senior Interests shall first be indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash before the Holder shall be entitled to receive and to retain any payment or distribution in respect of this Note. In order to implement the foregoing: (A) all payments and distributions of any kind or character in respect of this Note to which the Holder would be entitled except for this subsection 7(b) shall be made directly to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders); (B) if the Holder shall timely file a claim or claims in any Bankruptcy Proceeding for any outstanding amount owed under this Note (and if the Holder does not timely do so, the Administrative Agent may), all payments and other distributions in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) until the Senior Interests shall have been paid and performed in full and in cash and (C) the Holder hereby irrevocably agrees that Administrative Agent, in the name of the Holder or otherwise, may demand, sue for, collect, receive and receipt for any and all such payments or distributions, and file, prove and vote or consent in any such Bankruptcy Proceeding with respect to any and all claims of the Holder relating to this Note, in each case until the Senior Interests shall have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash. All payments and distributions received by Administrative Agent in respect of this Note, to the extent received in or converted into cash, may be applied by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) first, to the payment of any and all expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses) paid or incurred by Administrative Agent or the Senior Interest Holders in enforcing these Subordination Provisions, or in endeavoring to collect or realize upon the Junior Liabilities, and second, any balance thereof shall, solely as between any Holder (including Company hereunder) and the Senior Interest Holders, be applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Senior Interests in a manner determined by Administrative Agent to be in accordance with the Receivables Financing Agreement; but as between Buyer and its creditors, no such payments or distributions of any kind or character shall be deemed to be payments or distributions in respect of the Senior Interests.

(c) In the event that the Holder receives any payment or other distribution of any kind or character from Buyer or from any other source whatsoever, in respect of this Note, other than as expressly permitted by the terms of this Note, such payment or other distribution shall be received in trust for the Senior Interest Holders and shall immediately be turned over in cash by the Holder to Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders) until the Senior Interests have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash.

(d) Upon the indefeasible payment and performance in full and in cash of all Senior Interests, the Holder shall be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Interest Holders to receive payments or distributions from Buyer that are applicable to the Senior Interests until this Note is indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash.

(e) These Subordination Provisions are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the Senior Interest Holders, on the other hand. Nothing contained in the Subordination Provisions or elsewhere in this Note is intended to or shall impair, as between Buyer, its creditors (other than the Senior Interest Holders) and the Holder, Buyer’s obligation, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay this Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof and of the Purchase and Sale Agreement or to affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of Buyer (other than the Senior Interest Holders).

Exhibit 2.3(d), Page 3

(f) Holder shall not, until the Senior Interests have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash: (i) cancel, waive, forgive, transfer or assign, or commence legal proceedings to enforce or collect, or subordinate to any obligation of Buyer, howsoever created, arising or evidenced, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or now or hereafter existing, or due or to become due, other than the Senior Interests, this Note, or any rights in respect thereof or (ii) convert this Note into an equity interest in Buyer, unless, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, Holder shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent.

(g) The Holder shall not commence, or join with any other Person in commencing, any Bankruptcy Proceeding with respect to Buyer until at least one year and one day shall have passed since the Senior Interests shall have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and in cash.

(h) If, at any time, any payment (in whole or in part) made with respect to any Senior Interest is rescinded or must be restored or returned by a Senior Interest Holder (whether in connection with any Bankruptcy Proceeding or otherwise), these Subordination Provisions shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made.

(i) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, without notice or demand to the Holder, and without waiving any of its rights under these Subordination Provisions, take any or all of the following actions: (i) retain or obtain an interest in any property securing any of the Senior Interests pursuant to, and to the extent set forth in, the Transaction Documents; (ii) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligations of any other obligor or obligors with respect to any of the Senior Interests; (iii) extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), alter or exchange any of the Senior Interests, or release or compromise any obligation of any nature with respect to any of the Senior Interests in accordance with the Transaction Documents; (iv) amend, supplement, or otherwise modify any Transaction Document in accordance with the terms thereof; and (v) release its security interest in, or surrender, release or permit any substitution or exchange for all or any part of any rights or property securing any of the Senior Interests, or extend or renew for one or more periods (whether or not longer than the original period), or release, compromise, alter or exchange any obligations of any nature of any obligor with respect to any such rights or property.

(j) The Holder agrees that this Note shall be pari passu with all other Junior Liabilities.

(k) The Holder hereby waives: (i) notice of acceptance of these Subordination Provisions by any of the Senior Interest Holders; (ii) notice of the existence, creation, non-payment or non-performance of all or any of the Senior Interests; and (iii) all diligence in enforcement, collection or protection of, or realization upon the Senior Interests, or any thereof, or any security therefor.

Exhibit 2.3(d), Page 4

(l) Each of the Senior Interest Holders may, from time to time, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Documents to which such Persons are party, but without notice to the Holder, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior Interests, or any interest therein; and, notwithstanding any such assignment or transfer or any subsequent assignment or transfer thereof, such Senior Interests shall be and remain Senior Interests for the purposes of these Subordination Provisions, and every immediate and successive assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Interests or of any interest of such assignee or transferee in the Senior Interests shall be entitled to the benefits of these Subordination Provisions to the same extent as if such assignee or transferee were the assignor or transferor.

(m) These Subordination Provisions constitute a continuing offer from Buyer to all Persons who become the holders of, or who continue to hold, Senior Interests; and these Subordination Provisions are made for the benefit of the Senior Interest Holders, and Administrative Agent may proceed to enforce such provisions on behalf of each of such Persons.

8. Cumulative Remedies; Amendments, Etc. No failure or delay on the part of the Holder in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. No amendment, restatement, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, any provision of this Note shall in any event be effective unless (a) the same shall be in writing and signed and delivered by Buyer and the Holder and acknowledged and agreed to by Administrative Agent, and (b) all consents required for such actions under the Transaction Documents shall have been received by the appropriate Persons.

9. Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, Buyer shall never be required to pay unearned interest on any amount outstanding hereunder, and shall never be required to pay interest on the principal amount outstanding hereunder, at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate that may be contracted for, charged or received without violating applicable federal or state law.

10. Negotiation. This Note is not negotiable.

11. Governing Law. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, BUT WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY OTHER CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF).

12. Captions. Paragraph captions used in this Note are provided solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Note.

13. Intent of the Parties. Buyer and Company have structured this Note with the intention that the obligations of Buyer hereunder will be treated under United States federal, and applicable state, local and foreign tax law as debt (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Buyer and Company agree to file no tax return, or take any action, inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment unless required by law.

TERMS OF THE LOANS

SECTION 2.01. Loan Facility. Upon a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02, and on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, the Conduit Lenders, ratably, in accordance with the aggregate of the Commitments of the Related Committed Lenders with respect to each such Conduit Lender, severally and not jointly, may, in their sole discretion, make Loans to the Borrower on a revolving basis, and if and to the extent any Conduit Lender does not make any such requested Loan or if any Group does not include a Conduit Lender, the Related Committed Lender(s) for such Conduit Lender or the Committed Lender for such Group, as the case may be, shall, ratably in accordance with its respective Commitments, severally and not jointly, make such Loans to the Borrower, in either case, from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date. Under no circumstances shall any Lender be obligated to make any such Loan if, after giving effect to such Loan:

(i) the Aggregate Capital would exceed the Facility Limit at such time;

(ii) solely with respect to such Lender, the sum of (A) the Capital of such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate outstanding Capital of each other Lender in its Group, would exceed the Group Commitment of such Lender’s Group;

(iii) solely with respect to such Lender, if such Lender is a Committed Lender, the aggregate outstanding Capital of such Committed Lender would exceed its Commitment; or

(iv) the Aggregate Capital would exceed the Borrowing Base at such time.

SECTION 2.02. Making Loans; Repayment of Loans.

(a) Each Loan hereunder shall be made on at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written request from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent in the form of a Loan Request attached hereto as Exhibit A. Each such request for a Loan shall be made no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day (it being understood that any such request made after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the following Business Day) and shall specify (i) the amount of the Loan(s) requested (which shall not be less than $10,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $100,000), (ii) the allocation of such amount among the Groups (which shall be ratable based on the Group Commitments), (iii) the account to which the proceeds of such Loan shall be distributed and (iv) the date such requested Loan is to be made (which shall be a Business Day).

(b) On the date of each Loan specified in the applicable Loan Request, the Lenders shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article V and pursuant to the other conditions set forth in this Article II, make available to the Borrower in same day funds an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Loans requested, at the account set forth in the related Loan Request.

(c) Each Committed Lender’s obligation shall be several, such that the failure of any Committed Lender to make available to the Borrower any funds in connection with any Loan shall not relieve any other Committed Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make funds available on the date such Loans are requested (it being understood, that no Committed Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Committed Lender to make funds available to the Borrower in connection with any Loan hereunder).

(d) The Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding Capital of each Lender on the Final Maturity Date. Prior thereto, the Borrower shall, on each Settlement Date, make a prepayment of the outstanding Capital of the Lenders to the extent required under Section 3.01(a) and otherwise in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to make a prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding Capital of the Lenders on any Business Day upon two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent in the form of a Reduction Notice attached hereto as Exhibit B; provided, however, that (i) each such prepayment shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $100,000; provided, however that notwithstanding the foregoing, a prepayment may be in an amount necessary to reduce any Borrowing Base Deficit existing at such time to zero, and (ii) any accrued Interest and Fees in respect of such prepaid Capital shall be paid on the immediately following Settlement Date.

(e) The Borrower may, at any time upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent, terminate the Facility Limit in whole or ratably reduce the Facility Limit in part. Each partial reduction in the Facility Limit shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, and no such partial reduction shall reduce the Facility Limit to an amount less than $200,000,000. In connection with any partial reduction in the Facility Limit, the Commitment of each Committed Lender shall be ratably reduced.

(f) In connection with any reduction of the Commitments, the Borrower shall remit to the Administrative Agent (i) instructions regarding such reduction and (ii) for payment to the Lenders, cash in an amount sufficient to pay (A) Capital of Lenders in each Group in excess of the Group Commitment of such Group and (B) all other outstanding Borrower Obligations with respect to such reduction (determined based on the ratio of the reduction of the Commitments being effected to the amount of the Commitments prior to such reduction or, if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that any portion of the outstanding Borrower Obligations is allocable solely to that portion of the Commitments being reduced or has arisen solely as a result of such reduction, all of such portion) including, without duplication, any associated Breakage Fees. Upon receipt of any such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall apply such amounts first to the reduction of the Aggregate Capital, and second to the payment of the remaining outstanding Borrower Obligations with respect to such reduction, including any Breakage Fees, by paying such amounts to the Lenders.

(g) Provided that no Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default, Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may from time to time advise the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent in writing of its desire to extend the Scheduled Termination Date for an additional 364 day period, provided that such request is made not more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to, and not less than sixty (60) days prior to, the then current Scheduled Termination Date. The Administrative Agent and each Committed Lender (or its Group Agent on its behalf) shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Person is agreeable to such extension (it being understood that the Administrative Agent and the Committed Lenders may accept or decline such a request in their sole discretion and on such terms as they may elect) not less than thirty (30) days prior to the then current Scheduled Termination Date; provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent or any Committed Lender fails to so notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or such Committed Lender, as the case may be, shall be deemed to have declined such extension. In the event that the Administrative Agent and one or more Committed Lenders have so notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing that they are agreeable to such extension, the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the applicable Group Agents and the applicable Committed Lenders shall enter into such documents as the Administrative Agent, the applicable Group Agents and the applicable Committed Lenders may deem necessary or appropriate to effect such extension, and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the applicable Group Agents and the applicable Committed Lenders in connection therewith (including Attorney Costs) shall be paid by the Borrower. In the event any Committed Lender declines such request to extend the Scheduled Termination Date or is deemed to have declined such extension, such Committed Lender’s Group shall be an “Exiting Group” for all purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.03. Interest and Fees.

(a) On each Settlement Date, the Borrower shall, in accordance with the terms and priorities for payment set forth in Section 3.01, pay to each Group Agent, each Lender and the Administrative Agent certain fees (collectively, the “Fees”) in the amounts set forth in the fee letter

agreements from time to time entered into, among the Borrower, the members of the applicable Group (or their Group Agent on their behalf) and/or the Administrative Agent (such fee letter agreements, each as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, collectively being referred to herein as the “Fee Letter”).

(b) Each Loan of each Lender and the Capital thereof shall accrue interest on each day when such Capital remains outstanding at the then applicable Interest Rate for such Loan. The Borrower shall pay all Interest, Fees and Breakage Fees accrued during each Interest Period on each Settlement Date in accordance with the terms and priorities for payment set forth in Section 3.01.

(c) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase”) hereby notifies each PG&E Party that: (i) JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates may from time to time purchase, hold or sell, as principal and/or agent, Notes issued by Jupiter Securitization Company LLC; (ii) JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates act as administrative agent for such Conduit Lender, and as administrative agent JPMorgan Chase manages such Conduit Lender’s issuance of Notes, including the selection of amount and tenor of Note issuance, and the discount or interest rate applicable thereto; (iii) JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates act as a dealer for such Conduit Lender’s Notes; and (iv) JPMorgan Chase’s activities as administrative agent for such Conduit Lender and dealer for such Conduit Lender’ Notes, and as a purchaser or seller of Notes, impact the interest or discount rate applicable to the Notes issued by such Conduit Lender, which impact the CP Rate paid by the Borrower hereunder to such Conduit Lender. By execution hereof, each PG&E Party hereby (x) acknowledges the foregoing and agrees that JPMorgan Chase does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the interest or discount rate paid by such Conduit Lender in connection with its Note issuance; (y) acknowledges that the discount or interest rate at which JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates purchase or sell Notes will be determined by JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates in their sole discretion and may differ from the discount or interest rate applicable to comparable transactions entered into by JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates on the relevant date; and (z) waives any conflict of interest arising by reason of JPMorgan Chase and/or its affiliates acting as administrative agent for such Conduit Lender and dealer for such Conduit Lender’s Notes while acting as purchaser or seller of Notes.

SECTION 2.04. Records of Loans. Each Group Agent shall record in its records, the date and amount of each Loan made by the Lenders in its Group hereunder, the interest rate with respect thereto, the Interest accrued thereon and each repayment and payment thereof. Subject to Section 13.03(c), such records shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The failure to so record any such information or any error in so recording any such information shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the other Transaction Documents to repay the Capital of each Lender, together with all Interest accruing thereon and all other Borrower Obligations.

ARTICLE III

SETTLEMENT PROCEDURES AND PAYMENT PROVISIONS

SECTION 3.01. Settlement Procedures.

(a) Collections. The Servicer shall set aside and hold in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties (or, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, segregate in a separate account designated by the Administrative Agent, which shall be an account maintained and controlled by the Administrative Agent unless the Administrative Agent otherwise instructs in its sole discretion), for application in accordance with the priority of payments set forth below, all Collections on Pool Receivables that are received by the Servicer or the Borrower or received in any Lock-Box or Account; provided, however, that so long as each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.03 are satisfied on such date, the Servicer may release to the Borrower from such Collections that are on deposit in the Borrower Accounts the amount (if any) necessary to pay (i) the purchase price for Receivables purchased by the Borrower on such date in accordance with the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement or (ii) amounts owing by the Borrower to the Originators under the Subordinated Notes (each such release, a “Release”). On each Settlement Date, the Servicer (or, following its assumption of control of the Borrower Accounts, the Administrative Agent) shall, distribute such Collections in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the Servicer for the payment of the accrued Servicing Fees payable for the immediately preceding Interest Period (plus, if applicable, the amount of Servicing Fees payable for any prior Interest Period to the extent such amount has not been distributed to the Servicer);

(ii) second, to each Lender and other Credit Party (ratably, based on the amount then due and owing), all accrued and unpaid Interest, Fees and Breakage Fees due to such Lender and other Credit Party for the immediately preceding Interest Period (including any additional amounts or indemnified amounts payable under Sections 4.03 and 12.01 in respect of such payments), plus, if applicable, the amount of any such Interest, Fees and Breakage Fees (including any additional amounts or indemnified amounts payable under Sections 4.03 and 12.01 in respect of such payments) payable for any prior Interest Period to the extent such amount has not been distributed to such Lender or Credit Party;

(iii) third, as set forth in clauses (x), (y) and/or (z) below, as applicable:

(x) prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date, to the extent that a Borrowing Base Deficit exists on such date: to the Lenders (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Capital of each Lender at such time) for the payment of a portion of the outstanding Aggregate Capital at such time, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to reduce the Borrowing Base Deficit to zero ($0);

(y) on and after the occurrence of the Termination Date, to each Lender (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Capital of each Lender at such time) for the payment in full of the aggregate outstanding Capital of such Lender at such time; and

(z) prior to the occurrence of the Termination Date, at the election of the Borrower and in accordance with Section 2.02(d), to the Lenders in payment of all or any portion of the Aggregate Capital at such time (ratably, based on the aggregate outstanding Capital of each Lender at such time);

(iv) fourth, to the Credit Parties, the Affected Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties (ratably, based on the amount due and owing at such time), for the payment of all other Borrower Obligations then due and owing by the Borrower to the Credit Parties, the Affected Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties; and

(v) fifth, the balance, if any, to be paid to the Borrower for its own account.

Each Group Agent, upon its receipt in the applicable Group Agent’s Account of any such payments or distributions, shall distribute such amounts to the applicable Lenders, Affected Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties within its Group ratably; provided that if such Group Agent shall have received insufficient funds to pay all of the above amounts in full on any such date, such Group Agent shall pay such amounts to the applicable Lenders, Affected Persons and the Borrower Indemnified Parties within its Group in accordance with the priority of payments forth above, and with respect to any such category above for which there are insufficient funds to pay all amounts owing on such date, ratably (based on the amounts in such categories owing to each such Person in such Group) among all such Persons in such Group entitled to payment thereof. Neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any obligation, responsibility or liability in respect of any delay or failure by any Group Agent to distribute any amounts hereunder that have been timely delivered by the Borrower or the Servicer, as applicable, to such Group Agent at its Group Agent’s Account.

(c) If and to the extent the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party, any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party shall be required for any reason to pay over to any Person (including any Obligor or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any insolvency proceeding) any amount received on its behalf hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and, accordingly, the Administrative Agent, such Credit Party, such Affected Person or such Borrower Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount.

(d) For the purposes of this Section 3.01:

(i) if on any day the Unpaid Balance of any Pool Receivable is (A) reduced as a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any discount, dispute, refunds, netting, rebates or any adjustment or otherwise (other than (i) amounts that reflect Customer Refunds in an amount not to exceed the amount reported as a reduction in the Net Receivable Pool Balance in the prior Monthly Report and (ii) any amounts that are included in the California Climate Credit Accrual at such time) by any PG&E Party or any Affiliate thereof (other than cash Collections on account of the Receivables), (B) reduced as a result of converting such Receivable to an Excluded Receivable, (C) reduced as a result of applying any Deposit Balances or (D) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction) or any netting by any Person (any such reduction or adjustment, a “Reduction”), the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in the amount of such reduction or adjustment and shall within two (2) Business Days pay to a Borrower Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent at such time) for the benefit of the Credit Parties for application pursuant to Section 3.01(a), an amount equal to (x) if such Reduction occurs prior to the Termination Date and no Event of Default or Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the lesser of (I) the sum of all deemed Collections with respect to such Reduction and (II) an amount necessary to eliminate any Borrowing Base Deficit that exists at such time and (y) if such Reduction occurs on or after the Termination Date or at any time when an Event of Default or a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the sum of all deemed Collections with respect to such Reduction;

(ii) if (A) any of the representations or warranties in Section 6.01 is not true with respect to any Pool Receivable at the time made or deemed made or (B) any Receivable included in any Monthly Report or Interim Report as an Eligible Receivable or in any calculation of Net Receivable Pool Balance as an Eligible Receivable fails to be an Eligible Receivable at the time of such inclusion, the Borrower shall be deemed to have received on such day a Collection of such Pool Receivable in full and shall within two (2) Business Days pay to a Borrower Account (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent at such time) for the benefit of the Credit Parties for application pursuant to Section 3.01(a), an amount equal to (x) if such breach occurs prior to the Termination Date and no Event of Default or Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the lesser of (I) the sum of all deemed Collections with respect to such breach and (II) an amount necessary to eliminate any Borrowing Base Deficit that exists at such time and (y) if such breach occurs on or after the Termination Date or at any time when an Event of Default or a Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the sum of all deemed Collections with respect to such breach (Collections deemed to have been received pursuant to Sections 3.01(d)(i) and 3.01(d)(ii) are hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Deemed Collections”);

(iii) except as provided in clauses (i) or (ii) above or otherwise required by Applicable Law or the relevant Contract, all Collections received from an Obligor of any Receivable shall be applied to the Receivables of such Obligor in the order of the age of such Receivables, starting with the oldest such Receivable, unless such Obligor designates in writing its payment for application to specific Receivables; and

(iv) if and to the extent the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party, any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party shall be required for any reason to pay over to an Obligor (or any trustee, receiver, custodian or similar official in any insolvency proceeding) any amount received by it hereunder, such amount shall be deemed not to have been so received by such Person but rather to have been retained by the Borrower and, accordingly, such Person shall have a claim against the Borrower for such amount, payable when and to the extent that any distribution from or on behalf of such Obligor is made in respect thereof.

SECTION 3.02. Payments and Computations, Etc. (a) All amounts to be paid by the Borrower or the Servicer to the Administrative Agent, any Credit Party, any Affected Person or any Borrower Indemnified Party hereunder shall be paid no later than noon (New York City time) on the day when due in same day funds to the applicable Group Agent’s Account.

(b) Each of the Borrower and the Servicer shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, pay interest on any amount not paid or deposited by it when due hereunder, at an interest rate per annum equal to 2.50% per annum above the Base Rate, payable on demand.

Whenever any payment or deposit to be made hereunder shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment or deposit shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of such payment or deposit.

ARTICLE IV

INCREASED COSTS; FUNDING LOSSES; TAXES; ILLEGALITY AND SECURITY INTEREST

SECTION 4.01. Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Affected Person;

(ii) subject any Affected Person to any Taxes (except to the extent such Taxes are (A) Indemnified Taxes for which relief is provided under Section 4.03, (B) Taxes

described in clauses (b) and (c) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Affected Person any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) (A) affecting the Collateral, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, any Program Support Agreement, any Loan or any participation therein or (B) affecting its obligations or rights to make Loans;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Affected Person of (A) acting as the Administrative Agent, a Group Agent or a Lender hereunder or as a Program Support Provider with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, (B) funding or maintaining any Loan or (C) maintaining its obligation to fund or maintain any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Affected Person hereunder, then, upon request of such Affected Person (or its Group Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, however, that no Affected Person shall be entitled to demand such compensation more than 90 days following (x) the last day of the Interest Period in respect of which such demand is made or (y) the repayment of any Capital in respect of which such demand is made. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Affected Person shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 4.01 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Affected Person to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers (to the extent that such Affected Person has the right to do so under its credit facilities with similarly situated borrowers).

(b) Capital and Liquidity Requirements. If any Affected Person determines that any Change in Law affecting such Affected Person or any lending office of such Affected Person or such Affected Person’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of (x) increasing the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Affected Person or Affected Person’s holding company, if any, (y) reducing the rate of return on such Affected Person’s capital or on the capital of such Affected Person’s holding company, if any, or (z) causing an internal capital or liquidity charge or other imputed cost to be assessed upon such Affected Person or Affected Person’s holding company, if any, in each case, as a consequence of (A) this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (B) the commitments of such Affected Person hereunder or under any other Transaction Document or related Program Support Agreement, (C) the Loans made by such Affected Person or (D) any Capital, to a level below that which such Affected Person or such Affected Person’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Affected Person’s policies and the policies of such Affected Person’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, upon request of such Affected Person (or its Group Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Person or such Affected Person’s holding company for any such increase, reduction or charge.

(c) Adoption of Changes in Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.01, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Affected Person pursuant to this Section 4.01 for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Affected Person notifies the Borrower of such Affected Person’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect not to exceed twelve months. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall survive for 90 days after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts then due and payable hereunder.

(d) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of an Affected Person (or its Group Agent on its behalf) setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Affected Person or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a), (b) or (c) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall, subject to the priorities of payment set forth in Section 3.01, pay such Affected Person the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring after the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate.

SECTION 4.02. Funding Losses.

(a) The Borrower will pay each Lender all Breakage Fees.

(b) A certificate of a Lender (or its Group Agent on its behalf) setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, as specified in clause (a) above and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall, subject to the priorities of payment set forth in Section 3.01, pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring after the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate.

SECTION 4.03. Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. 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 Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent or Group Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment to an Affected Person, then the Borrower, Servicer, Administrative Agent or Group Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Affected Person receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent (or, as applicable, the applicable Affected Person) for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Affected Person, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any (I) Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Affected Person or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Affected Person and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority and (II) Taxes that arise because a Loan is not treated consistently with the Intended Tax Treatment (such indemnification will include any amount necessary to make such Affected Person whole on an after-tax basis taking into account the taxability of receipt of payments under this clause (II) and any reasonable expenses (other than Taxes) arising out of, relating to, or resulting from the foregoing). Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Indemnified Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice by the Administrative Agent or any Affected Person (or in each case its related Group Agent), the Borrower shall pay such Indemnified Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Authority (or to the Administrative Agent or Affected Person if such Taxes have already been paid to the relevant Governmental Authority); provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Affected Person shall be under any obligation to provide any such notice to the Borrower. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by an Affected Person (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of an Affected Person, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender (other than the Conduit Lenders) shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender, its Related Conduit Lender or any of their respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons (but only to the extent that the Borrower and its Affiliates have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting any obligation of the Borrower, the Servicer or its Affiliates to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to the failure of such Lender, its Related Conduit Lender or any of their respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons to comply with Section 13.03(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, its Related Conduit Lender or any of their respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Transaction Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender (or its Group Agent) by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender (other than the Conduit Lenders) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, its Related Conduit Lender or any of their respective

Affiliates that are Affected Persons under any Transaction Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, its Related Conduit Lender or any of their respective Affiliates that are Affected Persons from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 4.03, the Borrower 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) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Transaction Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 4.03(f)(ii)(A), 4.03(f)(ii)(B) and 4.03(g)) shall not be required if, in the Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Affected Person to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of such a Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with

respect to payments of interest under any Transaction Document, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Transaction Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of such a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4) to the extent such Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if such Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; and

(C) any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient), from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(g) FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under any Transaction Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender 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 Lender shall deliver to the Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3) (C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as may be necessary for the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.03 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Credit Party or any other Affected Person, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Borrower Obligations and the Servicer’s obligations hereunder.

(i) Updates. Each Affected Person agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 4.03 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

SECTION 4.04. Inability to Determine Adjusted LIBOR; Change in Legality.

(a) If any Group Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto absent manifest error) on any day, by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, either that: (i) dollar deposits in the relevant amounts and for the relevant Interest Period or day, as applicable, are not available, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period, or (iii) Adjusted LIBOR determined pursuant hereto does not accurately reflect the cost to the applicable Affected Person (as conclusively determined by such Group Agent) of maintaining any Portion of Capital during such Interest Period, such Group Agent shall promptly give telephonic notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Borrower on such day. Upon delivery of such notice: (i) no Portion of Capital shall be funded thereafter at Adjusted LIBOR unless and until such Group Agent shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist and (ii) with respect to any outstanding Portion of Capital then funded at Adjusted LIBOR, such Interest Rate shall automatically and immediately be converted to the Base Rate.

(b) If on any day any Group Agent shall have been notified by any Affected Person that such Affected Person has determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error) that any Change in Law, or compliance by such Affected Person with any Change in Law, shall make it unlawful or impossible for such Affected Person to fund or maintain any Portion of Capital at or by reference to Adjusted LIBOR, such Group Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, until the applicable Group Agent notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply, (i) no Portion of Capital shall be funded at or by reference to Adjusted LIBOR and (ii) the Interest Rate for any outstanding portions of Capital then funded at Adjusted LIBOR shall automatically and immediately be converted to the Base Rate.

(b) The Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have, with respect to all the Collateral, and in addition to all the other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), all the rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable UCC and all other Applicable Law. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file financing statements and any other applicable filings in any applicable jurisdiction describing as the collateral covered thereby as “all of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the collateral described in this Agreement.

SECTION 4.06. Successor Adjusted LIBOR.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Transaction Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Group Agents without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from the Majority Group Agents.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Group Agents of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Group Agent (or group of Group Agents) pursuant to this Section 4.06, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.06.

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, at any time (including in connection with

the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period (i) any pending selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Loan bearing interest by reference to Adjusted LIBOR that has not yet gone into effect shall be deemed to be a selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate with respect to such Loan, and such Loan shall bear interest by reference to the Base Rate (rather than by reference to Adjusted LIBOR), and (ii) all outstanding Loans bearing interest by reference to Adjusted LIBOR shall automatically be converted to bear interest by reference to the Base Rate at the expiration of the existing Interest Period (or sooner, if Administrative Agent cannot continue to lawfully maintain such affected Loan bearing interest by reference to Adjusted LIBOR). During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

(f) Acknowledgement regarding discontinuation of Adjusted LIBOR. Without prejudice to any other provision of this Agreement, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees for the benefit of each of the other parties hereto: (i) Adjusted LIBOR (A) may be subject to methodological or other changes which could affect its value, (B) may not comply with applicable laws and regulations (such as the Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as amended) and/or (C) may be permanently discontinued; and (ii) the occurrence of any of the aforementioned events and/or a Benchmark Transition Event may have adverse consequences which may materially impact the economics of the financing transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

(a) Organization and Good Standing. The Borrower is a limited liability company duly organized and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has full power and authority under its Organizational Documents and under the laws of its jurisdiction to own its properties and to conduct its business as such properties are currently owned and such business is presently conducted.

(b) Due Qualification. The Borrower is duly qualified to do business as a limited liability company, is in good standing as a foreign limited liability company and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in all jurisdictions in which the conduct of its business requires such qualification, licenses or approvals, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Power and Authority; Due Authorization. The Borrower (i) has all necessary limited liability company power and authority to (A) execute and deliver this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, (B) perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and (C) grant a security interest in the Collateral to the Administrative Agent on the terms and subject to the conditions herein provided and (ii) has duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action such grant and the execution, delivery and performance of, and the consummation of the transactions provided for in, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party.

(d) Binding Obligations. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents to which the Borrower is a party constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (x) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law) and (y) applicable Requirements of Law (including the approval of the CPUC) prior to foreclosure or other exercise of remedies hereunder or under the Transaction Documents.

(e) No Conflict or Violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which the Borrower is a party, the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not (i) violate in any material respect any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, the Organizational Documents of the Borrower or any indenture, sale agreement, credit agreement, loan agreement, security agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound, (ii) result in the creation or imposition of any Adverse Claim upon any of the Collateral pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, credit agreement, loan agreement, security agreement, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement or instrument, other than this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents or (iii) conflict with or violate any Applicable Law.

(f) Litigation and Other Proceedings.

(i) No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing by or against the Borrower or against any of its material properties or revenues with respect to any of the Transaction Documents.

(ii) No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing by or against the Borrower or against any of its material properties or revenues, except as disclosed in the Specified Exchange Act Filings, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrower.

(g) Governmental Approvals. Except where the failure to obtain or make such authorization, consent, order, approval or action would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of, or other actions by, any Governmental Authority that are required to be obtained by the Borrower in connection with the grant of a security interest in the Collateral to the Administrative Agent hereunder or the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document to which it is a party and the consummation by the Borrower of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect. The Borrower is not itself a “public utility,” as that term is defined under the FPA nor under the regulations of the CPUC. This Agreement and the Transaction Documents have received any approvals and authorizations that are required under the regulations and orders of the CPUC, and of the FERC under the FPA, and any such approvals are effective and in full force and effect, and each of the PG&E Parties has timely delivered to the CPUC and the FERC all notices with respect to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents that are required under the regulations and orders of the CPUC and the FERC.

(k) Investment Company Act; Volcker Rule. The Borrower (i) is not, and is not controlled by, an “investment company” registered or required to be registered under the Investment Company Act and (ii) is not a “covered fund” under the Volcker Rule. In determining that the Borrower is not a “covered fund” under the Volcker Rule, the Borrower relies on, and is entitled to rely on, the exemption from the definition of “investment company” set forth in Section 3(c)(5) of the Investment Company Act.

(l) No Material Adverse Effect. Since the date of formation of the Borrower there has been no Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Borrower.

(m) Accuracy of Information. All Monthly Reports, Interim Reports, Loan Requests, certificates, reports, statements, documents and other information furnished to the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or in connection with or pursuant to any amendment or modification of, or waiver under, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, other than any projections, estimates and other forward-looking materials and information of a general economic or industry specific nature, does not, when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made (giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto). Any projected information, estimates, other forward-looking materials and pro forma financial information that have been made available to any Lenders, any Group Agents or the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable as of the date such information was so furnished and as of the Closing Date (it being understood that actual results may vary materially from such projections and pro forma information and such projections and pro forma information are not a guarantee of performance).

(n) Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws and Sanctions.

None of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any director, officer, agent, Affiliate or employee of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation in any material respect by any such Person of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (“FCPA”) or of any other anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, rules, regulations legally applicable to such Persons (collectively, “Anti-Corruption Laws”).

(o) Proceeds. No proceeds received by any PG&E Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with any Loan will be used in any manner that will violate Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Sanctions.

(p) Eligible Asset. Each Loan is an “eligible asset” as defined in Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act.

(q) Beneficial Ownership Rule. As of the Closing Date, to the knowledge of the Borrower, the information included in any Beneficial Ownership Certification provided on or prior to the Closing Date to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects.

(r) Transaction Information. None of the Borrower, any Affiliate of the Borrower or any third party with which the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof has contracted, has delivered, in writing or orally, to any Rating Agency, any Transaction Information without providing such Transaction Information to the applicable Group Agent prior to delivery to such Rating Agency and has not participated in any oral communications with respect to Transaction Information with any Rating Agency without the participation of such Group Agent.

(s) Perfection Representations.

(i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral which (A) security interest has been perfected and is enforceable against creditors of and purchasers from such Person and (B) will be free of all Adverse Claims in such Collateral.

(iii) The Receivables constitute “accounts” or “general intangibles” within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC.

Material Adverse Effect. Neither any PG&E Party nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan during the prior five years that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither any PG&E Party nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any liability under ERISA if any PG&E Party or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No such Multiemployer Plan is in endangered or critical status (within the meaning of Section 305 of ERISA) or in Insolvency.

The Servicer has filed or caused to be filed all Federal and state returns of income and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net income taxes and all other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or with respect to any claims or assessments for taxes made against it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than (i) any amounts the validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Servicer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (ii) claims which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the Servicer).

(y) Opinions. The facts regarding each PG&E Party, the Receivables, the Related Security and the related matters set forth or assumed in each of the opinions of counsel delivered in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction Documents are true and correct in all material respects.

(k) Identifying of Records. The Servicer shall (i) take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that there shall be placed on each data processing report that it generates that is provided to a proposed purchaser or lender to evaluate the Receivables, a legend evidencing that the Pool Receivables have been transferred to the Borrower in accordance with the Purchase and Sale Agreement and (ii) cause each Originator to do the same.

In order to evidence the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Servicer shall, from time to time take such action, or execute and deliver such instruments as may be necessary (including, without limitation, such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent) to maintain and perfect, as a first-priority interest, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Receivables, Related Security and Collections.

The Administrative Agent’s approval of such filings shall authorize the Servicer to file such financing statements under the UCC without the signature of the Borrower, any Originator or the Administrative Agent where allowed by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything else in the Transaction Documents to the contrary, the Servicer shall not have any authority to file a termination, partial termination, release, partial release, or any amendment that deletes the name of a debtor or excludes collateral of any such financing statements filed in connection with the Transaction Documents, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(n) Further Assurances. The Servicer hereby authorizes and hereby agrees from time to time, at its own expense, promptly to execute (if necessary) and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or to enable the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) to exercise and enforce the Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Document.

(o) Transaction Information. None of the Servicer, any Affiliate of the Servicer or any third party contracted by the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof, shall deliver, in writing or orally, to any Rating Agency, any Transaction Information without providing such Transaction Information to the applicable Group Agent prior to delivery to such Rating Agency, and will not participate in any oral communications with respect to Transaction Information with any Rating Agency without the participation of such Group Agent.

In the event that 10.0% or more of the aggregate amount of all funds deposited into the Collection Accounts during each of two consecutive calendar months constitute Miscellaneous Collections, the Servicer shall (i) within sixty (60) days notify the obligors of the Miscellaneous Items to cease remitting Miscellaneous Collections to the Collection Accounts and Lock-Boxes and (ii) take commercially reasonable action to ensure that future payments on Miscellaneous Items are not remitted directly to any Collection Account or any Lock-Box.

101

Documents in reliance upon the Borrower’s identity as a legal entity separate from any other PG&E Party and their Affiliates. Therefore, the Borrower and Servicer shall take all steps specifically required by this Agreement or reasonably required by the Administrative Agent or any Group Agent to continue the Borrower’s identity as a separate legal entity and to make it apparent to third Persons that the Borrower is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of any other PG&E Party and any other Person, and is not a division of any PG&E Party or any of its Affiliates or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to and consistent with the other covenants set forth herein, the Borrower and the Servicer shall take such actions as shall be required in order that:

(a) Special Purpose Entity. The Borrower will be a special purpose company whose primary activities are restricted in its Organizational Documents to: (i) purchasing or otherwise acquiring from the Originators, owning, holding, collecting, granting security interests or selling interests in, the Collateral, (ii) entering into agreements for the selling, servicing and financing of the Receivables Pool (including the Transaction Documents) and (iii) conducting such other activities as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out its primary activities.

(b) No Other Business or Debt.

For the purposes of this definition, “control” of a person means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person or entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. A person shall be deemed to be an “associate” of (A) a corporation or organization of which such person is an officer, director, partner or manager or is, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of ten percent (10%) or more of any class of equity securities, (B) any trust or other estate in which such person serves as trustee or in a similar capacity and (C) any relative or spouse of a person described in clause (A) or (B) of this sentence, or any relative of such spouse. The Borrower shall (A) give written notice to the Administrative Agent of the election or appointment, or proposed election or appointment, of a new Independent Director of the Borrower, which notice shall be given not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date such appointment or election would be effective (except when such election or appointment is necessary to fill a vacancy caused by the death, disability, or incapacity of the existing Independent Director, or the failure of such Independent Director to satisfy the criteria for an Independent Director set forth in the Borrower’s Organizational Documents, in which case the Borrower shall provide written notice of such election or appointment within one (1) Business Day) and (B) with any such written notice, certify to the Administrative Agent that the Independent Director satisfies such criteria for an Independent Director.

The Borrower’s Organizational Documents shall provide that, among other things: (A) the Borrower’s board of directors shall not approve, or take any other action to cause the filing of, a voluntary bankruptcy petition with respect to the Borrower unless the Independent Director shall approve the taking of such action in writing before the taking of such action and (B) such provision and each other provision requiring an Independent Director cannot be amended without the prior written consent of the Independent Director.

The Borrower will not engage any agents other than its attorneys, auditors and other professionals, and a servicer and any other agent contemplated by the Transaction Documents for the Receivables Pool, which servicer will be fully compensated for its services by payment of the Servicing Fee.

(i) Servicing and Costs. The Borrower will contract with the Servicer to perform for the Borrower all operations required on a daily basis to service the Receivables Pool. The Borrower will not incur any indirect or overhead expenses for items shared with the Servicer (or any other Affiliate thereof) that are not reflected in the Servicing Fee. To the extent, if any, that the Borrower (or any Affiliate thereof) shares items of expenses not reflected in the Servicing Fee, such as legal, auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be allocated to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to the actual use or the value of services rendered.

All financial statements of the PG&E Parties or any Affiliate thereof that are consolidated to include the Borrower will disclose that (i) the Borrower’s sole business consists of the purchase or acceptance through capital contributions of the Receivables and Related Rights from the Originators and the subsequent retransfer of or granting of a security interest in such Receivables and Related Rights to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the Borrower is a separate legal entity with its own separate creditors who will be entitled, upon its liquidation, to be satisfied out of the Borrower’s assets prior to any assets or value in the Borrower becoming available to the Borrower’s equity holders and (iii) the assets of the Borrower are not available to pay creditors of the other PG&E Parties or any Affiliate thereof.

104

(n) Segregation of Assets. The Borrower’s assets will be maintained in a manner that facilitates their identification and segregation from those of the other PG&E Parties or any Affiliates thereof.

(o) Corporate Formalities. The Borrower will strictly observe limited liability company formalities in its dealings with the Servicer, the Parent, the Originators or any Affiliates thereof, and funds or other assets of the Borrower will not be commingled with those of the Servicer, the Parent, the Originators or any Affiliates thereof except as permitted by this Agreement in connection with servicing the Pool Receivables. The Borrower shall not maintain joint bank accounts or other depository accounts to which the Servicer, the Parent, the Originators or any Affiliate thereof (other than the Servicer solely in its capacity as such) has independent access. The Borrower is not named, and the Borrower has not entered into any agreement to be named, directly or indirectly, as a direct or contingent beneficiary or loss payee on any insurance policy with respect to any loss relating to the property of the Servicer, the Parent, the Originators or any Subsidiaries or other Affiliates thereof. The Borrower will pay to the appropriate Affiliate the marginal increase or, in the absence of such increase, the market amount of its portion of the premium payable with respect to any insurance policy that covers the Borrower and such Affiliate.

(p) Arm’s-Length Relationships. The Borrower will maintain arm’s-length relationships with each of the other PG&E Parties and any Affiliates thereof. Any Person that renders or otherwise furnishes services to the Borrower will be compensated by the Borrower at market rates for such services it renders or otherwise furnishes to the Borrower. Neither the Borrower on the one hand, nor any other PG&E Party or any Affiliate thereof, on the other hand, will be or will hold itself out to be responsible for the debts of the other or the decisions or actions respecting the daily business and affairs of the other. Each PG&E Party and their respective Affiliates will immediately correct any known misrepresentation with respect to the foregoing, and they will not operate or purport to operate as an integrated single economic unit with respect to each other or in their dealing with any other entity.

(q) Allocation of Overhead. To the extent that Borrower, on the one hand, and each of the other PG&E Parties or any Affiliate thereof, on the other hand, have offices in the same location, there shall be a fair and appropriate allocation of overhead costs between them, and the Borrower shall bear its fair share of such expenses, which may be paid through the Servicing Fee or otherwise.

111

(b) If the Servicer ceases to be PG&E or an Affiliate thereof, the Servicing Fee shall be the greater of: (i) the amount calculated pursuant to clause (a) above and (ii) an alternative amount specified by the successor Servicer not to exceed 110% of the aggregate reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such successor Servicer in connection with the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder.

No Group Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Unmatured Event of Default, Event of Default, Unmatured Termination Event or Termination Event unless such Group Agent has received notice from the Administrative Agent, any other Group Agent, any other Credit Party, the Servicer or the Borrower stating that an Unmatured Event of Default, an Event of Default, an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event has occurred hereunder and describing such Unmatured Event of Default, Event of Default, Unmatured Termination Event or Termination Event. If a Group Agent receives such a notice, it shall promptly give notice thereof to the Credit Parties in its Group and to the Administrative Agent (but only if such notice received by such Group Agent was not sent by the Administrative Agent). A Group Agent may take such action concerning an Unmatured Event of Default, an Event of Default, an Unmatured Termination Event or a Termination Event as may be directed by Committed Lenders in its Group representing a majority of the Commitments in such Group (subject to the other provisions of this Article XI), but until such Group Agent receives such directions, such Group Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as such Group Agent deems advisable and in the best interests of the Conduit Lenders and Committed Lenders in its Group.

SECTION 11.07. Non-Reliance on Group Agent and Other Parties. Each Credit Party expressly acknowledges that neither the Group Agent for its Group nor any of such Group Agent’s directors, officers, agents or employees has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by such Group Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Group Agent. Each Credit Party represents and warrants to the Group Agent for its Group that, independently and without reliance upon such Group Agent, any other Group Agent, the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will continue to make its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, operations, property, prospects, financial and other conditions and creditworthiness of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof and the Receivables and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to take, or omit, action under any Transaction Document. Except for items expressly required to be delivered under any Transaction Document by a Group Agent to any Credit Party in its Group, no Group Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Credit Party in its Group with any information concerning the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof that comes into the possession of such Group Agent or any of its directors, officers, agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

122

SECTION 11.08. Successor Group Agent. Any Group Agent may, upon at least thirty (30) days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Servicer and the Credit Parties in its Group, resign as Group Agent for its Group. Such resignation shall not become effective until a successor Group Agent is appointed by the Lender(s) in such Group. Upon such acceptance of its appointment as Group Agent for such Group hereunder by a successor Group Agent, such successor Group Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the resigning Group Agent, and the resigning Group Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Transaction Documents. After any resigning Group Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XI and Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was a Group Agent.

SECTION 11.09. Reliance on Group Agent. Unless otherwise advised in writing by a Group Agent or by any Credit Party in such Group Agent’s Group, each party to this Agreement may assume that (i) such Group Agent is acting for the benefit and on behalf of each of the Credit Parties in its Group, as well as for the benefit of each assignee or other transferee from any such Person and (ii) each action taken by such Group Agent has been duly authorized and approved by all necessary action on the part of the Credit Parties in its Group.

The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Borrower may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each Borrower Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Borrower and the Borrower Indemnified Parties.

Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Servicer shall pay on demand, to each PG&E Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such PG&E Indemnified Party from and against any and all Servicer Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from any of the following (but excluding Servicer Indemnified Amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) above):

(i) any Pool Receivable which the Servicer includes as an Eligible Receivable as part of the Net Receivable Pool Balance but which is not an Eligible Receivable at such time;

(ii) any representation, warranty or statement made or deemed made by the Servicer (or any of its respective officers) under or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (including in any report or certificate required to be delivered under any Transaction Document) shall have been untrue or incorrect when made or deemed made;

(ix) any failure of the Collection Account Agent to comply with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or any amounts (including in respect of an indemnity) payable by the Administrative Agent under the Intercreditor Agreement;

The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Servicer under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Servicer may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each PG&E Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Servicer and the PG&E Indemnified Parties.

(c) The Retention Holder hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the PG&E Indemnified Parties from and against any and all EU Losses (as defined below) resulting from or arising out of any breach by the Retention Holder of Section 13.21 (the foregoing being referred to as, “Retention Holder Indemnified Amounts”).

(e) Any indemnification or contribution under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Each assignor of a Loan or any interest therein may, in connection with the assignment or participation, disclose to the assignee or Participant any information relating to the Borrower and its Affiliates, including the Receivables, furnished to such assignor by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates or by the Administrative Agent; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or Participant agrees to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower and its Affiliates received by it from any of the foregoing entities in a manner consistent with Section 13.06(b).

(i) except for an assignment by a Committed Lender to either an Affiliate of such Committed Lender or any other Committed Lender, each such assignment shall require the prior written consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that such consent shall not be required if a Ratings Event, an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default, a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing);

(ii) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(iii) except for an assignment (A) by a Committed Lender to either an Affiliate of such Committed Lender or any other Committed Lender or (B) at any time that a Ratings Event, an Event of Default, an Unmatured Event of Default, a Termination Event or an Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, the amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance Agreement with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than the lesser of (x) $10,000,000 and (y) all of the assigning Committed Lender’s Commitment; and

(iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement.

Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement, and to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Committed Lender hereunder and (y) the assigning Committed Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, relinquish such rights and be released from such obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Committed Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Committed Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to on Schedule III of this Agreement (or such other address of the Administrative Agent notified by the Administrative Agent to the other

131

parties hereto) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Committed Lenders and the Conduit Lenders, the Commitment of each Committed Lender and the aggregate outstanding Capital (and stated interest) of the Loans of each Conduit Lender and Committed Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Servicer, the Administrative Agent, the Group Agents, and the other Credit Parties shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms of this Agreement as a Committed Lender or Conduit Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Servicer, any Group Agent, any Conduit Lender or any Committed Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Procedure. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed and delivered by an assigning Committed Lender and an Eligible Assignee or assignee Committed Lender, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been duly completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the Servicer.

(e) Participations. Each Committed Lender may sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) in or to all or a portion of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment and the interests in the Loans owned by it); provided, however, that

(i) such Committed Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, and

(ii) such Committed Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties to this Agreement for the performance of such obligations.

The Administrative Agent, the Group Agents, the Conduit Lenders, the other Committed Lenders, the Borrower and the Servicer shall have the right to continue to deal solely and directly with such Committed Lender in connection with such Committed Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01 and 4.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.03(f) 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 paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.01 or 4.03, 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 Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

132

(f) Participant Register. Each Committed Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Committed Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Committed 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.

(g) Assignments by Agents. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent herein shall be assignable by the Administrative Agent or such Group Agent, as the case may be, and its successors and assigns; provided that in the case of an assignment to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or such Group Agent, so long as no Event of Default, Unmatured Event of Default, Termination Event or Unmatured Termination Event has occurred and is continuing, such assignment shall require the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(h) Assignments by the Borrower or the Servicer. Neither the Borrower nor, except as provided in Section 8.01, the Servicer may assign any of its respective rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Group Agent (such consent to be provided or withheld in the sole discretion of such Person).

(i) Pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) any Lender, Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its interest in, to and under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payment of Capital and Interest) and any other Transaction Document to secure its obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, the Servicer, any Affiliate thereof or any Credit Party; provided, however, that that no such pledge shall relieve such assignor of its obligations under this Agreement.

(j) Pledge to a Security Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) any Lender, Program Support Provider or any of their respective Affiliates may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its interest in, to and under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payment of Capital and Interest) and any other Transaction Document to a security trustee in connection with the funding by such Person of Loans, without notice to or the consent of the Borrower, the Servicer, any Affiliate thereof or any Credit Party; provided, however, that that no such pledge shall relieve such assignor of its obligations under this Agreement.

133

SECTION 13.04. Costs and Expenses. In addition to the rights of indemnification granted under Section 12.01 hereof, the Borrower agrees to pay on demand (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties in connection with (A) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, any Program Support Agreement (or any supplement or amendment thereof) related to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (together with all amendments (including any amendments pursuant to Section 4.06), restatements, supplements, consents and waivers, if any, from time to time hereto and thereto), including, without limitation, the reasonable Attorney Costs of only one joint counsel and one joint special California counsel and, if necessary, one joint local counsel in each other relevant jurisdiction to the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties and any of their respective Affiliates with respect thereto (and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each applicable jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated affected Persons) and (B) advising the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and (ii) all reasonable and documented accountants’, auditors’ and consultants’ fees and expenses for the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Parties and any of their respective Affiliates and the fees and charges of any nationally recognized statistical rating agency incurred in connection with the administration and maintenance of this Agreement or advising the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Party as to their rights and remedies under this Agreement or as to any actual or reasonably claimed breach of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(vi) PG&E was not established for, and does not operate for, the sole purpose of securitizing exposures;

(vii) PG&E has been, and with respect to future Receivables will be, directly or indirectly involved in the origination of such Receivables that have been, and in the case of any such future Receivables, will be, extended to the Obligors by PG&E which created and will create the obligations and potential obligations of the Obligors giving rise to such Receivables, and PG&E has established and is managing the securitisation contemplated by the Transaction Documents and therefore is an ‘originator’ as defined in the Securitisation Regulation;

(viii) it (or, as to any Receivables as to which it is not the originator, it reasonably believes that the relevant originator) (A) applied to all existing Receivables, and will apply to any future Receivables, sound (in its reasonable opinion) and well-defined credit-granting criteria and clearly established processes for approving, amending, modifying, refinancing or renewing such Receivables and (B) has, and will maintain, effective systems in place to apply those criteria and processes to ensure that the credit-granting is based on a thorough assessment of each Obligor’s creditworthiness, taking appropriate account of factors relevant to verifying the prospect of such Obligor meeting its obligations under the relevant Contract; and

(ix) none of the Pool Receivables is a securitisation position (as defined in the Securitisation Regulation).

142

Indemnified Parties, as applicable, to comply with any of its obligations under Article 5 or Article 7 (as may be applicable in connection with any ABCP programme sponsored by any Lender) of the Securitisation Regulation, but only to the extent that it can provide such information without breaching a legal or contractual duty of confidentiality and (ii) use all reasonable efforts to take such further action and enter into such other agreements not otherwise provided for hereunder as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Group Agent in order for the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Group Agent (or any of their Affiliates or related EU Indemnified Parties) to comply with its obligations under the Securitisation Regulation in relation to the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents.

SECTION 13.22. Intercreditor Agreement.

143

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the failure of the Borrower or the Servicer to timely perform its respective obligations under this Section 13.23 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under this Agreement with no grace period; provided, however, that if the Borrower and the Servicer are each diligently pursuing their respective obligations under this Section 13.23 and have not satisfied those obligations by the 30^th day following the Closing Date, then the Borrower and the Servicer shall each have an additional 30 day period to satisfy their obligations under this Section 13.23.

If any Account Secured Party shall receive any distribution in accordance with this Article 5 (an “Excess Amount”) that is later identified as property of another Account Secured Party (“Diverted Funds”), the Account Secured Party who received such Diverted Funds and applied such Diverted Funds to amounts owing to any Lender under any Transaction Document shall promptly pay to the Account Secured Party entitled to receive such Diverted Funds an amount equal to the amount of such Diverted Funds.

The Administrative Agents shall cooperate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resolve any such dispute in accordance with the foregoing allocation criteria. Such disputed amount shall be held by the Collection Account Agent in the Collection Accounts until such time as the Collection Account Agent receives written confirmation and direction from the Required Parties of the resolution of such dispute and the appropriate allocation of such funds to the applicable Administrative Agents. If the Administrative Agents are unable to resolve such dispute within ten (10) Business Days, any Administrative Agent, by written notice to the other Administrative Agents, may appoint an independent certified public or chartered accountant of national standing and consented to in writing by the other Administrative Agents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to resolve such dispute. The costs and expenses of any such accountant shall be paid by the Company from its own funds.

Prior to delivery of a Control Direction, the Company shall have the rights and powers concerning the Collection Accounts contemplated by the Receivables Documents or the Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, including, but not limited to, the right to: (i) direct the disposition of funds in the Collection Accounts (including dispositions to or for the benefit of itself, the Receivables Facility SPV or any Securitization SPV with respect to amounts representing Collections of assets owned by them and/or the Collection Account Agent), (ii) withdraw any amounts from the Collection Accounts for application in accordance with the Receivables Documents or the Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, or (iii) draw upon or otherwise exercise any authority or powers with respect to any of the Collection Accounts and all other Account Collateral in any of the Collection Accounts.

The Collection Account Agent is hereby authorized to establish an account corresponding to each Collection Account for the purposes specified herein. Upon receipt by the Collection Account Agent of a Control Direction, the Collection Account Agent shall act in accordance with such Control Direction without consent of or notice to the Company, the Receivables Facility SPV or any

-12-

Securitization SPV; provided, however, a copy of such Control Direction shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent that delivered such Control Direction to the other Administrative Agents, the Company, the Receivables Facility SPV and each Securitization SPV; provided, further, that any failure by such Administrative Agent to deliver, or any failure by any of the other Administrative Agents, the Company, the Receivables Facility SPV or any Securitization SPV to receive, a copy of such Control Direction shall not cause such Control Direction to be ineffective. Any Control Direction may be terminated by delivery to the Collection Account Agent of written notice from the Administrative Agent that delivered such Control Direction terminating such Control Direction (each such notice being a “Termination Notice”). Upon receipt of a Termination Notice, the Collection Account Agent shall notify each of the Collection Account Banks that the applicable “Notice of Sole Control”, “Notice of Exclusive Control”, “Notice of Control” or other notice of control has been terminated. Each Administrative Agent agrees that it will not deliver a Control Direction hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of such Administrative Agent’s Receivables Documents or Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable.

-13-

13.

Marshalling of Assets. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to require any of the Administrative Agents (i) to proceed against certain property securing their respective security interests (or any other obligation or liability under the Receivables Documents or the Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable) prior to proceeding against property subject to such security interest or obligations or liabilities or against any Persons guaranteeing any such obligations or (ii) to marshal the contracts upon the enforcement of any of their remedies under any of the Receivables Documents or the Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable.

14.

Administrative Agents and Trustees. The resignation or removal of any of the Administrative Agents as administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under the Receivables Documents or any Joined Party Transaction Documents and the appointment of a successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee shall also constitute substitution of a successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under this Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under the Receivables Documents or the applicable Joined Party Transaction Documents, that successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under this Agreement, and the retiring or removed administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under this Agreement shall promptly transfer to such successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee all items of property held by such retiring or removed administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee under this Agreement, whereupon such retiring or removed administrative agent, collateral agent, trustee or indenture trustee shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Each Administrative Agent agrees to provide written notice to the Collection Account Agent and each other Administrative Agent of any successor agent appointed under the Receivables Documents or any Joined Party Transaction Documents promptly upon the effectiveness of any such succession.

15.

Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto agrees, at the sole cost and expense of the Company, promptly to execute (if necessary) and deliver all further instruments and documents, and to take all further actions, that may be necessary or desirable, or as may be reasonably requested by any other party to this Agreement, in order to effectuate the rules of distribution and allocation set forth in this Agreement, to otherwise effectuate the agreements made in this Agreement or to exercise and enforce the rights and remedies under this Agreement.

16.

Automatic Removal of Party. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the rights of any Administrative Agent, the Receivables Facility SPV or any Securitization SPV, as applicable, shall cease on the date on which the obligations under its respective Receivables Documents or Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, are paid in full and such Receivables Documents or Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, have been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof and such party,

-14-

without further action on its part, shall no longer be a party to this Agreement; provided, however, that written notice of any such termination shall be provided to the Collection Account Agent and each other Administrative Agent. Any rights to be performed jointly by the Administrative Agents, the Receivables Facility SPV and any Securitization SPV hereunder (or any subset thereof holding joint rights to such performance hereunder) may be performed on and after such time by the Administrative Agents, the Receivables Facility SPV or any Securitization SPV (or any subset thereof holding joint rights to performance hereunder) acting pursuant to their respective Receivables Documents or Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, under which obligations remain outstanding.

Concerning the Collection Account Agent.

18.1

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that (i) the duties, responsibilities and obligations of the Collection Account Agent shall be limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, each of which are solely mechanical and administrative in nature, and shall not be construed to be fiduciary, and no duties, covenants, functions, responsibilities, liabilities or obligations shall be inferred or implied, (ii) the Collection Account Agent shall not be responsible for determining or compelling compliance with any other document (including the Receivables Documents or the Joined Party Transaction Documents) in its capacity as the Collection Account Agent, (iii) the Collection Account Agent shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any financial or other liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that such repayment of such funds or indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it is not assured to it and (iv) the Collection Account Agent shall not be obligated to take any legal or other action hereunder, which might in its reasonable judgment involve or cause it to incur any expense or liability unless it shall have been furnished with indemnification and/or security satisfactory to it.

18.2

The Collection Account Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Collection Account Agent shall not be liable (i) for any indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or special losses or damages, regardless of the form of action and whether or not any such losses or damages were foreseeable or contemplated or (ii) for the acts or omissions of any nominees, correspondents, designees, agents, subagents or sub-custodians appointed by it with due care.

18.3

The Collection Account Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any order, judgment, certification, demand, instruction, notice, instrument, certification, consent, authorization, receipt, power of attorney, e-mail, .pdf or other writing delivered to it without being required to determine the authenticity or validity thereof, or the

-15-

correctness of any fact stated therein or the propriety or validity or the service thereof or the jurisdiction of the court issuing any judgment or order. The Collection Account Agent may act in reliance upon any direction, notice or other document delivered hereunder and believed by it in good faith to be genuine and may assume that any person purporting to make any statement or execute any such direction, notice or other document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.

18.4

The Collection Account Agent may consult with counsel satisfactory to it, and the opinion or advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion and advice of such counsel.

18.5

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement to the contrary, the Collection Account Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any obligation hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond its control (including, without limitation, any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any Governmental Authority, any act of God or war or terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Agent wire services or any electronic communication facility).

18.6

Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Collection Account Agent for, and hold the Collection Account Agent, and the officers, members, directors, trustees, employees, agents and affiliates of the Collection Account Agent (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from, all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, fees and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses of counsel, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee in any way arising out of, resulting from or with respect to this Agreement, any Collection Account Control Agreement, each Collection Account and the services provided with respect thereto, including, without limitation: (a) any action taken, or not taken, by the Collection Account Agent in regard thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any Collection Account Control Agreement, including with respect to the exercise by the Collection Account Agent of any of its respective rights or remedies under this Agreement or any Collection Account Control Agreement; (b) cash, checks, money orders and other items of value of any of the parties as may now or hereafter be paid, deposited, credited or held (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise), including, without limitation, any automated clearinghouse transactions, which are returned for any reason, and any adjustments, and (c) any investigation, litigation or proceeding (including any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar proceeding or appellate proceeding) relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on common law, contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by the Company or any other Person, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect any Indemnitee against any liability caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as

-16-

determined by the final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent that the undertakings to indemnify and hold harmless set forth in this Section 18.6 may be unenforceable in whole or in party because they violate any law or public policy, the Company shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. All amounts due under this Section 18.6 shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand therefor. The provisions of this Section 18.6 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Collection Account Agent and the termination of this Agreement, the Collection Account Control Agreements and each other Financing Agreement.

18.7

As to any matter not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Collection Account Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Parties; provided, however, that the Collection Account Agent shall not be required to take any action, which may expose the Collection Account Agent to any liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or any Requirement of Law.

18.8

The Collection Account Agent is hereby authorized to obey and comply with all writs, orders, judgments or decrees issued by any court or administrative agency. The Collection Account Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto, their successors, heirs or personal representatives by reason of the Collection Account Agent’s compliance with such writs, orders, judgments or decrees, notwithstanding that such writ, order, judgment or decree may later be reversed, modified, set aside or vacated.

18.19

The Collection Account Agent shall not be responsible or liable to perform any duties or obligations (including Allocation Services) of the Company hereunder or under any Financing Document (including after a Default has occurred); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the rights and obligations of the Collection Account Agent hereunder to instruct the disposition of funds in each Collection Account in accordance with the written instructions of the Required Parties.

-20-

or, at the expense of the Company, apply to a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Collection Account Agent.

Without limiting any other rights that any Administrative Agent and their respective assigns, officers, directors, agents and employees (each, an “Indemnified Party”) may have hereunder, under the Receivables Documents or the applicable Joined Party Transaction Documents, as applicable, or under applicable law, the Company hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party from and against any and all claims, losses and liabilities (including all reasonable and documented fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of a single external counsel engaged by such Indemnified Party) (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) arising out of or resulting from this Agreement; excluding, however, Indemnified Amounts to the extent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction holds that such Indemnified Amounts resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Indemnified Party seeking indemnification. Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Company shall pay on demand (it being understood that such payment will be made first from amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts representing payments on Retained Assets), to the applicable Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts which such Indemnified Party is entitled to receive hereunder.

28.2

If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless for any Indemnified Amount, then the Company shall contribute to such Indemnified Party the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of the Company and its affiliates on the one hand and such Indemnified Party on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this Agreement as well as the relative fault of the Company and its affiliates and such Indemnified Party with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any other relevant equitable considerations. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company under this Section shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have, shall extend upon the same terms and conditions to each Indemnified Party, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company and the Indemnified Parties.

28.3

This Section 28 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

29. Indemnification by the Administrative Agents.

29.1

To the extent that the Company has failed for any reason to pay in full any amounts owing by the Company to the Collection Account Agent in accordance with Section 18.6 or 18.21 within ten (10) days after demand therefor, including from amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts representing payments on Retained Assets (which may be withdrawn by the Collection Account Agent in accordance with Section 12.5), without relieving the Company of its obligations under Sections 18.6 or 18.21, the Administrative Agents then party to this

-26-

Agreement agree, on a several and not joint basis, in accordance with their Pro Rata Portions, during any Control Period to pay to the Collection Agent such unpaid amounts owing under Section 18.6 or 18.21, other than any liability caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by the final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that no Administrative Agent’s Pro Rata Potion shall exceed the amount actually received by such Administrative Agent in respect of indemnification or any contribution to the extent of amounts it receives in respect of such obligation to indemnify hereunder, in each case under its related Joined Party Transaction Documents or, in the case of the RFA Administrative Agent, under the Receivables Documents; provided, further that any indemnities, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements of any kind payable pursuant to this Section 29.1 shall be applied, first, as a reduction of amounts that constitute Retained Assets and second, from amounts owing to the Administrative Agents ratable in accordance with their Pro Rata Portions, in each case as directed jointly in writing by the Administrative Agents. All amounts due under this Section 29.1 shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand therefor.
