(a)    was already in the Receiving Party’s possession on a non-confidential basis prior to June 8, 2023, or becomes known to the Receiving Party from a source other than the Disclosing Party and its representatives without any breach of this Agreement, in each case as evidenced by written records (provided that if such information was disclosed to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis by a source that is not the Disclosing Party, such source had the right to disclose such information to the Receiving Party without any legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation to, any person with respect to such information);

(b)    is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an act or omission by the Receiving Party or its Affiliates in breach of this Agreement or any other agreement; or

If no such protective order or other remedy is obtained and the Receiving Party or its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ representatives are, in the view of their respective counsel (which may include their respective internal counsel), legally required to disclose Confidential Information, the Receiving Party or its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ representatives, as the case may be, shall only disclose that portion of the Confidential Information that their respective counsel advises that the Receiving Party or its Affiliates or its or its Affiliates’ representatives, as the case may be, are required to disclose and will use reasonable best efforts, at the Disclosing Party’s sole expense, to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to that portion of the Confidential Information that is being disclosed. In any event, the Receiving Party will not oppose action by the Disclosing Party (and will cooperate in good faith) to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notice to the Disclosing Party shall not be required where disclosure is made in connection with a routine examination by a regulatory examiner, where in each case such request or examination does not expressly reference the Disclosing Party, its Affiliates, the Purchased Receivables or this Agreement (provided that the examiner is advised of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information). The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its Affiliates, its and their employees, directors, officers, contractors, agents, and representatives, and to potential or actual acquirers, merger partners, permitted assignees, investment bankers, investors, limited partners, partners, lenders, or other financing sources (including, in the case of a Seller Party, any party evaluating the acquisition of any portion of the Purchased Receivables that are not included in the Purchased Receivables), and their respective directors, employees, contractors and agents;

provided that such person or entity agrees to confidentiality and non-use obligations with respect thereto at least as stringent as those specified for in this ARTICLE VIII; provided further, that the Receiving Party shall limit such disclosures solely to the extent required by such engagement. Further, notwithstanding anything contained in this ARTICLE VIII to the contrary, but subject to compliance with Section 5.2, a Party that is or becomes subject to reporting obligations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any rule, regulation or legal process promulgated by the SEC or a stock exchange, may disclose Confidential Information to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with the securities laws, rules and regulations referenced above that are applicable to such Party.

Section 9.1    Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that, if it fails to perform any of its obligations under any of the Transaction Documents, the other Parties will be damaged irreparably and have no adequate remedy at law.

Each Party agrees that in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such violation, it shall not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Purchaser shall be entitled to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of both (x) the Purchaser Representative (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) and (y) the Seller Parties if such assignment is [***]. Each Party shall give written notice to the other Parties of any intended assignment permitted by this Section 9.3 promptly (but in any event at least ten (10) Business Days) prior to the occurrence thereof. The Seller Parties shall not be under any obligation to reaffirm any representations, warranties or covenants made in this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or take any other action in connection with any such assignment by any Purchaser. Any purported assignment of rights or delegation of obligations in violation of this Section 9.3 will be void ab initio, and of no force or effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will apply to, be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

Section 9.4    Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents, all fees, costs and expenses (including any legal, accounting and banking fees) incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party hereto incurring such fees, costs and expenses. If any claim is commenced by any Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement against any other Party, all fees, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred by the prevailing party in such claim shall be reimbursed by the losing party. As used in this Section 9.4, the term “prevailing party” means the Party that has succeeded upon a significant issue in such claim and achieved a material benefit with respect to the claims at issue, taken as a whole.

Section 9.5    Independent Nature of Relationship. The relationship between the Seller Parties, on one hand, and the Purchasers, on the other hand, is solely that of seller and purchaser, and neither the Seller Parties, on one hand, nor the Purchasers, on the other hand, has any fiduciary or other special relationship with the other Parties or any of their respective Affiliates. This Agreement is not a partnership or similar agreement, and nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document shall be deemed to constitute either Seller Party and the Purchasers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity or legal form for any

purposes, including any Tax purposes. The Parties agree that they shall not take any inconsistent position with respect to such treatment in a filing with any Governmental Authority.

Section 9.6    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and the other Transaction Documents, constitute a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of agreement between the Parties, and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the Parties, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and other Transaction Documents.
