THIS LOAN ACCOUNT PROGRAM AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 14, 2008 (“Effective Date”), is made by and between WEBBANK, a Utah-chartered industrial bank having its principal location in Salt Lake City, Utah (“Bank”), and PROSPER MARKETPLACE, INC., a Delaware corporation, having its principal location in San Francisco, California (“Company”).

WHEREAS, Company is in the business of providing certain services necessary for the origination of consumer installment loans;

WHEREAS, Bank is in the business of originating various types of consumer loans, including installment loans; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to develop a program pursuant to which Company shall market and provide an online interface and certain operations services in connection with, and Bank shall originate, installment loans for qualifying consumers identified by Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the terms, conditions and mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Bank and Company mutually agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The terms used in this Agreement shall be defined as set forth in Schedule 1.

2. Program Marketing and Services.

(a) Bank hereby retains Company to serve as Bank’s marketing and operations vendor for the Program. As such, Company shall perform the following services for Bank and the Program:

(1) Company shall promote and otherwise market the Program and the Loan Accounts at Company’s own cost and in its sole discretion. In performing such promotion and other marketing services, Company may use any form of media and may devote such monetary and other resources as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Company’s promotion and marketing efforts shall not be required to produce any minimum number of Loan Accounts or other benefits to the Program during the Term of this Agreement or any year, month, or other period under this Agreement. Company may refer to Bank and the Program in promotional and marketing materials, including marketing scripts, upon the condition that any references to Bank and/or the Program in any such materials must receive the prior written approval of Bank, which approval shall not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Company shall ensure that all promotional and marketing materials shall be accurate and not misleading in all material respects. Company shall ensure that all promotional and marketing materials and strategies comply with Applicable Laws.

(2) Company shall host and maintain the Program Website and provide customer support, regulatory compliance, administrative, and other operational services to support Bank’s origination of Loan Accounts and the Program generally. Company shall provide such services in a manner consistent with Company obligations specified in this Agreement and as the Parties may mutually agree in writing from time to time.

	(b)	Bank acknowledges and agrees that (i) pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement, Company is licensing to Bank valuable Proprietary Material of Company for use in the marketing and operation of the Program, which includes but is not limited to use of the Program Website; (ii) because the value of such Proprietary Material may be affected by Bank’s lending activities under the Program, Company requires Bank to perform and Bank hereby agrees to perform Bank’s lending activities under the Program with due regard to Company’s interests in such Proprietary Material and in close coordination with Company as specified hereafter in this Agreement; and (iii) the compensation to be paid by Bank to Company under this Agreement is in consideration of Company’s licensing of such Proprietary Material to Bank as well as Company’s marketing and operational services to Bank and the Program under this Agreement.

3.	Extension of Credit. Company acknowledges that approval of an Application creates a creditor-borrower relationship between Bank and Borrower which involves, among other things, the disbursement of Loan Proceeds. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate Bank to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds if Bank determines that doing so would be an unsafe or unsound banking practice or that such extension of credit would be in violation of the Credit Policy. Bank shall use reasonable commercial efforts to provide Company prior notice of a decision not to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds in reliance on the preceding sentence and, in all instances where Bank does not provide such prior notice, Bank shall provide Company prompt notice after making a decision not to extend credit to an Applicant or disburse Loan Proceeds in reliance on the preceding sentence.

4.	Consumer Documents and Credit Policy. The following documents, terms and procedures (“Consumer Finance Materials”) that have been approved by Bank and that will be used by Bank initially with respect to the Loan Accounts are attached to this Agreement: (i) the Program Website (screen shots of each page of the Program Website) as Exhibit A; (ii) Credit Policy as Exhibit B; (iii) form of Application, including disclosures required by Applicable Laws, as Exhibit C; and (iv) form of Loan Account Agreement, privacy policy and privacy notices, and all other Applicant and Borrower communications as Exhibit D. The Consumer Finance Materials shall not be changed without the prior written consent of both Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that Bank may change the Consumer Finance Materials upon written notice provided to Company but without Company’s prior written consent, to the extent that such change is required by Applicable Laws or necessitated by safety and soundness concerns, provided that, as between Bank and Company, Bank shall be solely responsible for each such change and any adverse legal or other consequences arising from it. The Parties acknowledge that each Loan Account Agreement and all other documents referring to the creditor for the Program shall identify Bank as the creditor for the Loan Accounts. Company shall ensure that the Consumer Finance Materials comply with Applicable Laws.

5.	Loan Account Processing and Origination.

	(a)	On behalf of Bank, Company shall process Applications received from Applicants via the Program Website (including retrieving credit reports) to determine whether the Applicant meets the eligibility criteria set forth in the Credit Policy and Bank’s “Know Your Customer” and anti-money laundering criteria (collectively, the “Bank Secrecy Act Policy”), which is attached hereto as Exhibit I, and which may be updated by Bank from time to time and such updates shall be effective upon notice to Company as set forth herein. Company shall respond to all inquiries from Applicants regarding the application

		process.

(b)		Company shall forward to Bank mutually agreed information including name, address, social security number and date of birth, regarding Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the Credit Policy. Company shall have no discretion to override the Credit Policy with respect to any Applications.

(c)		Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Bank shall establish Loan Accounts with respect to Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the Credit Policy.

(d)		Pursuant to procedures mutually agreed to by the Parties, Company shall deliver adverse action notices to Applicants who do not meet Credit Policy criteria or are otherwise denied by Bank.

(e)		Company shall deliver Program privacy notices and Loan Account Agreements to Borrowers.

(f)		Company shall hold and maintain, as custodian for Bank, all documents of Bank pertaining to Loan Accounts. Company shall periodically provide to Bank copies of records required to be maintained under the Bank Secrecy Act Policy and such other documents regarding Loan Accounts as requested by Bank, at intervals mutually agreed to by the Parties, but no less frequently than monthly.

(g)		Company shall perform the obligations described in this Section 5 and deliver any customer communications to Applicants and Borrowers as necessary to carry on the Program, all at Company’s own cost and in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(h)		Pursuant to Section 16, as Bank reasonably requires and upon reasonable advance written notice to Company, Bank may periodically audit Company for compliance with the terms of this Section 5 and the Agreement as a whole, including compliance with the standards set forth herein for Loan Account origination.

6. Funding Loans; Payment of Servicing Fee.

(a)		Company shall provide a Funding Statement to Bank by e-mail or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties by 5:00 PM Mountain Time on the Business Day prior to each Funding Date. Each Funding Statement shall (i) identify those Applicants whose Applications satisfy the requirements of the Credit Policy and with respect to whom Company requests that Bank establish Loan Accounts, and (ii) provide the Funding Amount to be disbursed by Bank on such Funding Date. The Funding Statement shall be in the form of Exhibit E.

(b)		Subject to timely receipt of the Funding Statement, Bank shall transfer the Funding Amount from the Funding Account to the Disbursement Account by ACH transfers originated by Company on each Funding Date. Company shall provide Bank the account number and routing number for the Disbursement Account prior to the first Funding Date.

(c)		Subject to timely receipt of the Funding Amount, Company shall disburse Loan Proceeds to Borrowers by ACH transfers from the Disbursement Account in accordance with the

Funding Statement on the Funding Date. Bank authorizes Company to deduct and retain from the Funding Amount the aggregate amount of the Origination Fees set forth on the Funding Statement as a Program servicing fee.

	(3)	This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation of Bank, enforceable against Bank in accordance with its terms, except (i) as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect, including the rights and obligations of receivers and conservators under 12 U.S.C. §§ 1821 (d) and (e), which may affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general, and (ii) as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a suit at law or in equity);

(d)	Company hereby represents and warrants to Bank as of each Funding Date that:

	(1)	For each Loan Account and each disbursement of Loan Proceeds: (i) to the best of Company’s knowledge, all information in the related Application is true and correct, provided, however, that Company’s representation and warranty in this regard shall be subject to the following limitations: (A) Company does not verify the self-reported income, employment and occupation or other information provided by Applicants in listings, (B) each Applicant’s debt-to-income ratio is determined by Company from a combination of the Applicant’s self-reported income and information from the Applicant’s credit report and not otherwise verified by Company, (C) credit data that appears in Applications is taken directly from a credit report obtained on the Applicant from a credit reporting agency, without any review or verification by Company, (D) Company does not verify any statements by Applicants as to how Loan Proceeds are to be used and does not confirm after loan disbursement how Loan Proceeds were used, and (E) Applicants’ home ownership status is not verified by Company but is derived from the Applicant’s credit report, in that if the credit report reflects an active mortgage loan the Applicant is presumed to be a homeowner; (ii) the Loan Account is fully enforceable and all required disclosures to Borrowers have been delivered in compliance with Applicable Laws; (iii) the Loan Account Agreement and all other Loan Account documents are genuine and legally

	(3)	The information on each Funding Statement is true and correct in all respects.

8. Other Relationships with Borrowers.

(a)		Separate from the obligation to market Loan Accounts offered by Bank, and subject to the Program privacy policy and Applicable Laws, Company shall have the right, at its own expense, to solicit Applicants and/or Borrowers with offerings of other goods and services from Company and parties other than Bank, provided, however, that in the event that Company uses Bank’s name and/or Proprietary Materials in connection with such offerings, Company shall obtain Bank’s prior approval for such use.

(b)		Except as necessary to carry out its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and the Loan Sale Agreement, Bank shall not use Applicant and/or Borrower information and shall not provide or disclose any Applicant and/or Borrower information to any Person, except to the extent required to do so under Applicable Laws or legal process.

(c)		Notwithstanding subsection 8(b), (i) Bank may make solicitations for goods and services to the public, which may include one or more Applicants or Borrowers; provided that Bank does not (A) target such solicitations to specific Applicants and/or Borrowers, (B) use or permit a third party to use any list of Applicants and/or Borrowers in connection with such solicitations or (C) refer to or otherwise use the name of Company; and (ii) Bank shall not be obligated to redact the names of Applicants and/or Borrowers from marketing lists acquired from third parties (e.g., subscription lists) that Bank uses for solicitations.

(d)		The terms of this Section 8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

9. Indemnification.

(a)		Bank agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Company and its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, representatives, shareholders, agents and attorneys of such entities (the “Company Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all third party claims and actions, and all liability, judgments, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees arising there from (together with third party claims and actions, “Losses”) to the extent arising from its (i) gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of any of Bank’s representations, warranties, obligations or undertakings under this Agreement by Bank, or (ii) violation by Bank of any Utah or federal banking law specifically applicable to Bank’s operations other than Applicable Laws regarding consumer protection, consumer lending, usury, loan collection, anti-money laundering, data protection or privacy as they apply to the operation of the Program.

(b)		Company agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Bank and its Affiliates, and the officers, directors, employees, representatives, shareholders, agents and attorneys of such entities (the “Bank Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses to the extent arising from Company’s participation in the Program as contemplated by the Program Documents (including Losses arising from a violation of Applicable Laws or a breach by Company or its agents or representatives of any of Company’s representations, warranties, obligations or undertakings under the Program Documents), unless such Loss results from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Bank or (ii) a breach by Bank of any of Bank’s representations, warranties, obligations or undertakings under this Agreement.

(c)		The Company Indemnified Parties and the Bank Indemnified Parties are sometimes referred to herein as the “Indemnified Parties,” and Company or Bank, as an indemnitor hereunder, is sometimes referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party.”

(d)		Any Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party, in writing, of any notice of the assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any third party of any legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, or if the Indemnified Party determines the existence of any such claim or the commencement by any third party of any such legal or regulatory proceeding, arbitration or action, whether or not the same shall have been asserted or initiated, in any case with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is or may be obligated to provide indemnification (an “Indemnifiable Claim”), specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the Loss, and, if known, the amount, or an estimate of the amount, of the Loss, provided that failure to promptly give such notice shall only limit the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the actual prejudice, if any, suffered by such Indemnifying Party as a result of such failure. The Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable thereafter information and documentation reasonably requested by such Indemnifying Party to defend against the Indemnifiable Claim.

(e)		The Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) days after receipt of any notification of an Indemnifiable Claim (a “Claim Notice”) to notify the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim and, through counsel of its own choosing, and at its own expense, to commence the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying

Party in connection therewith if such cooperation is so requested and the request is reasonable; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall hold the Indemnified Party harmless from all its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the Indemnified Party’s cooperation. If the Indemnifying Party assumes responsibility for the settlement or defense of any such claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate at its expense in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party; provided that, in the event that both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are defendants in the proceeding and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably determined and notified the Indemnifying Party that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, then the fees and expenses of one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in the aggregate shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party; and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Indemnifiable Claim without the Indemnified Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed for any reason if the settlement involves only payment of money and releases the Indemnified Party from any and all liability related to such claim, and which consent may be withheld for any reason if the settlement involves more than the payment of money, including any admission by the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party is reasonably contesting any such Indemnifiable Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle such claim without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Indemnified Party may pay or settle any such Indemnifiable Claim at any time if it waives its right to indemnification hereunder.

(f) If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after receipt of the Claim Notice that it elects to undertake the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim described therein, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to contest vigorously any such Indemnifiable Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party, to contest, settle or compromise the Indemnifiable Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided that the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party prior thereto of any compromise or settlement of any such Indemnifiable Claim. No action taken by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this paragraph (f) shall deprive the Indemnified Party of its rights to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.

(g) The terms of this Section 9 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

10. Term and Termination.

(a) This Agreement shall have an initial term beginning on the Effective Date and ending twenty-four (24) months thereafter (the “Initial Term”) and shall renew automatically for two (2) successive terms of one (1) year each (each a “Renewal Term,” collectively, the Initial Term and Renewal Term(s) shall be referred to as the “Term”), unless either Party provides notice of non-renewal to the other Party at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term or this Agreement is earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(e) Bank shall not be obligated to approve Applications or establish new Loan Accounts after termination of this Agreement; provided, that Bank shall originate Loan Accounts to Applicants to whom Bank has issued a lending commitment prior to termination, unless this Agreement is terminated pursuant to subsection 10(b) or by Bank pursuant to subsection 10(d).

(f) The termination of this Agreement either in part or in whole shall not discharge any Party from any obligation incurred prior to such termination.

(g) Upon termination of this Agreement, Company shall purchase all Loan Accounts established by Bank prior to and on the date of termination that have not already been

purchased by Company. After termination, Company shall purchase all Loan Accounts originated by Bank pursuant to subsection 10(e).

(h) The terms of this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

11. Confidentiality.

(a) Each Party agrees that Confidential Information of the other Party shall be used by such Party solely in the performance of its obligations and exercise of its rights pursuant to the Program Documents. Except as required by Applicable Laws or legal process, neither Party (the “Restricted Party”) shall disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to third parties; provided, however, that the Restricted Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party (i) to the Restricted Party’s Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors for the sole purpose of fulfilling the Restricted Party’s obligations under this Agreement (as long as the Restricted Party exercises reasonable efforts to prohibit any further disclosure by its Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors), provided that in all events, the Restricted Party shall be responsible for any breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder by any of its Affiliates, agents, representatives or subcontractors, (ii) to the Restricted Party’s auditors, accountants and other professional advisors, or to a Regulatory Authority or (iii) to any other third party as mutually agreed by the Parties.

(b) A Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that:

(1) is generally available to the public;

(2) has become publicly known, without fault on the part of the Party who now seeks to disclose such information (the “Disclosing Party”), subsequent to the Disclosing Party acquiring the information;

(3) was otherwise known by, or available to, the Disclosing Party prior to entering into this Agreement; or

(4) becomes available to the Disclosing Party on a non-confidential basis from a Person, other than a Party to this Agreement, who is not known by the Disclosing Party after reasonable inquiry to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with the non-Disclosing Party or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the information to the Disclosing Party.

(c) Upon written request or upon the termination of this Agreement, each Party shall, within thirty (30) days, return to the other Party all Confidential Information of the other Party in its possession that is in written form, including by way of example, but not limited to, reports, plans, and manuals; provided, however, that either Party may maintain in its possession all such Confidential Information of the other Party required to be maintained under Applicable Laws relating to the retention of records for the period of time required thereunder or stored on such Party’s network as part of standard back-up procedures (provided that such information shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Section 11).

22. Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument signed by each of the Parties. The failure of a Party to require the performance of any term of this Agreement or the waiver by a Party of any default under this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent enforcement of such term and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach. All waivers must be in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be enforced.

23. Entire Agreement. The Program Documents, including this Agreement and its schedules and exhibits (all of which schedules and exhibits are hereby incorporated into this Agreement), constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous negotiations or oral or written agreements with regard to the same subject matter.

24. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by the Parties in any number of counterparts, and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which counterpart shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

25. Interpretation. The Parties acknowledge that each Party and its counsel have reviewed and revised this Agreement and that the normal rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement or any amendments thereto, and the same shall be construed neither for nor against either Party, but shall be given a reasonable interpretation in accordance with the plain meaning of its terms and the intent of the Parties.

26. Agreement Subject to Applicable Laws. If (a) either Party has been advised by legal counsel of a change in Applicable Laws or any judicial decision of a court having jurisdiction over such Party or any interpretation of a Regulatory Authority that, in the view of such legal counsel, would have a materially adverse effect on the rights or obligations of such Party under this Agreement or the financial condition of such Party, (b) either Party receives a request of any Regulatory

Authority having jurisdiction over such Party, including any letter or directive of any kind from any such Regulatory Authority, that prohibits or restricts such Party from carrying out its obligations under this Agreement, or (c) either Party has been advised by legal counsel that there is a material risk that such Party’s or the other Party’s continued performance under this Agreement would violate Applicable Laws, then the Parties shall meet and consider in good faith any modifications, changes or additions to the Program or the Program Documents that may be necessary to eliminate such result. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program Documents, including Section 10 hereof, if the Parties are unable to reach agreement regarding such modifications, changes or additions to the Program or the Program Documents within ten (10) Business Days after the Parties initially meet, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon five (5) days’ prior written notice to the other Party.

27. Force Majeure. If any Party is unable to carry out the whole or any part of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event, then the performance of the obligations under this Agreement of such Party as they are affected by such cause shall be excused during the continuance of the inability so caused, except that should such inability not be remedied within thirty (30) days after the date of such cause, the Party not so affected may at any time after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, during the continuance of such inability, terminate this Agreement on giving written notice to the other Party and without payment of a termination fee or other penalty. To the extent that the Party not affected by a Force Majeure Event is unable to carry out the whole or any part of its obligations under this Agreement because a prerequisite obligation of the Party so affected has not been performed, the Party not affected by a Force Majeure Event also is excused from such performance during such period. A “Force Majeure Event” as used in this Agreement shall mean an unanticipated event that is not reasonably within the control of the affected Party or its subcontractors (including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of governmental authorities, strikes, war, riot and any other causes of such nature), and which by exercise of reasonable due diligence, such affected Party or its subcontractors could not reasonably have been expected to avoid, overcome or obtain, or cause to be obtained, a commercially reasonable substitute therefore. No Party shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder if its failure of performance is due to removable or remediable causes which such Party fails to remove or remedy using commercially reasonable efforts within a reasonable time period. Either Party rendered unable to fulfill any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of a Force Majeure Event shall give prompt notice of such fact to the other Party, followed by written confirmation of notice, and shall exercise due diligence to remove such inability with all reasonable dispatch.

36. Referrals. Neither Party has agreed to pay any fee or commission to any agent, broker, finder, or other person for or on account of such person’s services rendered in connection with this Agreement that would give rise to any valid claim against the other Party for any commission, finder’s fee or like payment.
