Proceeds from any Class A Advance shall be deposited into the Series 2021- A Principal Collection Account.
B.A Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser that delivered a Class A Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class A Delayed Amount shall be obligated to fund such Class A Delayed Amount on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date in the manner set forth in the next succeeding sentence, irrespective of whether the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date with respect to the Class A Notes shall have occurred on or prior to such Class A Delayed Funding Date or HVF III would be able to satisfy the Class A Funding Conditions on such Class A Delayed Funding Date. Such Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser shall (i) pay the sum of the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice
Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, to HVF III no later than 2:00
p.m. (New York time) on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date by wire transfer in
U.S. dollars in same day funds to the Series 2021-A Principal Collection Account, and (ii) pay the Class A Delayed Funding Reimbursement Amount related to such Class A Delayed Amount, if any, on such related Class A Delayed Funding Date to each applicable Class A Funding Agent in immediately available funds for the ratable benefit of the related Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchasers that funded the Class A Delayed Amount on the date of the Advance related to such Class A Delayed Amount in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(v)(B) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures), based on the relative amount of such Class A Delayed Amount funded by such Class A Available Delayed Amount Purchaser on the date of such Class A Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(v)(B) (Class A Delayed Funding Procedures).
(vii)Class A Funding Defaults.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Class A Delayed Funding Purchaser that has provided a Class A Delayed Funding Notice in respect of a Class A Advance shall be considered to be in default of its obligation to fund its Class A Delayed Amount or be treated as a Class A Defaulting Committed Note Purchaser hereunder unless and until it has failed to fund the Class A Delayed Funding
Reimbursement Amount or the Class A Second Delayed Funding Notice Amount on the related Class A Delayed Funding Date in accordance with Section 2.2(a)(vi)(B) (Funding Class A Advances).

Any Committed Note Purchaser (other than the Class RR Committed Note Purchaser) that does not expressly notify HVF III and the Program Agent that it is willing to consent to an extension of the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date during the applicable Election Period and each Conduit Investor that does not expressly notify such Funding Agent that it is willing to consent to an extension of the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date for the applicable Class(es) during the applicable Election Period shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Purchaser; provided that, if the Class RR Committed Note Purchaser fails to so consent to an extension of the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date that is the later of the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date for the Class A Notes or the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date for the Class B Notes, no other such consent received from any other Committed Note Purchaser or any Conduit Investor shall be given effect. If a Committed Note Purchaser or a Conduit Investor has agreed to extend its Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date, and, at the end of the applicable Election Period no Amortization Event shall be continuing with respect to the Series 2021-A Notes, then the Series 2021- A Commitment Termination Date for the Class RR Committed Note Purchaser and for such Committed Note Purchaser or Conduit Investor for the applicable Class(es) then in effect shall be extended to the date that is the last day of the Extension Length (which shall begin running on the day after the then-current Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date for such Class of Series 2021-A Notes); provided that, no such extension to the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date shall become effective until (i) the termination of each Non-Extending Purchaser’s commitment, if any, (ii) on the date of any such termination with respect to a Class A Investor Group, the prepayment in full of each such Non-Extending Purchaser’s portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount for such Non-Extending Purchaser’s Class A Investor Group and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, in each case, in accordance with Section 9.2.

Investor Group). A request to extend the Series 2021-A Commitment Termination Date with respect to one but not all Classes of Series 2021-A Notes shall require concurrent written notice to (but not the consent of) each of the Funding Agents, Committed Note Purchasers or Conduit Investors with respect to the Investor Groups for the Class of Series 2021-A Notes that are not subject to the request for extension.

Whenever any payment of interest or principal in respect of any Class A Advance shall be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the amount of interest owed.

For the avoidance of doubt, Class A CP True-Up Payment Amounts, if any, shall be paid in accordance with Section 5.3 (Application of Funds in the Series 2021-A Interest Collection Account) as a component of the Class A Monthly Interest Amount.
Fees.(a)Program Agent Fees. On each Payment Date, HVF III shall pay to the Program Agent the applicable Program Agent Fee due for such Payment Date.
(b)Up-Front Fees. On the Series 2021-A Restatement Date, HVF III shall pay to the applicable Committed Note Purchasers, the applicable Upfront Fee due on the Series 2021-A Restatement Date.
SOFR Lending Unlawful.(a) If a Class A Conduit Investor, a Class A Committed Note Purchaser or any Class A Program Support Provider (each such person, a “Class A Affected Person”) shall reasonably determine (which determination, upon notice thereof to the Program Agent and the related Class A Funding Agent and HVF III, shall be conclusive and binding on HVF III absent manifest error) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any such Class A Affected Person to make,
continue, or maintain any Class A Advance as, or to convert any Class A Advance into, the Class A SOFR Tranche, the obligation of such Class A Affected Person to make, continue or maintain any such Class A Advance as, or to convert any such Class A Advance into, the Class A SOFR Tranche, upon such determination, shall forthwith be suspended until such Class A Affected Person shall notify the related Class A Funding Agent and HVF III that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and such Class A Investor Group shall immediately convert the portion of the Class A SOFR Tranche funded by each such Class A Affected Person, into the Class A Base Rate Tranche at the end of the then-current SOFR Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.
Deposits Unavailable.(a)If a Class A Conduit Investor, a Class A Committed Note Purchaser or the related Class A Majority Program Support Providers shall have reasonably determined that:
(i)Dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant SOFR Interest Period are not available to all the related Reference Lenders in the relevant market;
(ii)by reason of circumstances affecting all the related Reference Lenders’ relevant market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable hereunder to the Class A SOFR Tranche; or
(iii)such Class A Conduit Investor, such Class A Committed Note Purchaser or the related Class A Majority Program Support Providers have notified the related Class A Funding Agent and HVF III that, with respect to any interest rate otherwise applicable hereunder to the Class A SOFR Tranche, the SOFR Interest Period for which has not then commenced, such interest rate will not adequately reflect the cost to such Class A Conduit Investor, such Class A Committed Note Purchaser or such Class A Majority Program Support Providers of making, funding, agreeing to make or fund or maintaining their respective portion of such Class A SOFR Tranche for such SOFR Interest Period,
then, upon notice from such Class A Conduit Investor, such Class A Committed Note Purchaser or the related Class A Majority Program Support Providers to such Class A Funding Agent and HVF III, the obligations of such Class A Conduit Investor, such Class A Committed Note Purchaser and all of the related Class A Program Support Providers to make or continue any Class A Advance as, or to convert any Class A Advances into, the Class A SOFR Tranche shall forthwith be suspended until such Class A Funding Agent shall notify HVF III that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and such Class A Investor Group shall immediately convert the portion of the Class A SOFR Tranche funded by each such Class A Conduit Investor or Class A Committed Note Purchaser into the Class A Base Rate Tranche at the end of the then current SOFR Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required for the reasons set forth in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, as the case may be.
Increased or Reduced Costs, etc. HVF III agrees to reimburse each Class A Affected Person for any increase in the cost of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by any such Class A Affected Person in respect of making, continuing or maintaining (or of its obligation to make, continue or maintain) any Class A Advances as, or of converting (or of its obligation to convert) any Class A Advances into, the Class A SOFR Tranche that arise in connection with any Changes in Law, except for any such Changes in Law with respect to increased capital costs and taxes, which shall be governed by Sections 3.7 (Increased Capital Costs) and 3.8 (Taxes), respectively. Each such demand shall be provided to the related Funding Agent and HVF III in writing and shall state, in reasonable detail, the reasons therefor and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Affected Person for such increased cost or reduced amount or return. Such additional amounts shall be payable by HVF III to such
Funding Agent and by such Funding Agent directly to such Affected Person on the Payment Date immediately following HVF III’s receipt of such notice, and such notice, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on HVF III.
Funding Losses. In the event any Affected Person shall incur any loss or expense (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Affected Person to make, continue or maintain any portion of the principal amount of any Class A CP Tranche or Class A SOFR Tranche, to convert any portion of the principal amount of any Class A Advance not in the Class A CP Tranche into the Class A CP Tranche or not in the Class A SOFR Tranche into the Class A SOFR Tranche as a result of:(i) any conversion or repayment or prepayment (for any reason, including as a result of the acceleration of the maturity of any portion of the Class A CP Tranche or Class A SOFR Tranche in connection with any Class A Decrease, pursuant to Section 2.3 (Procedure for Decreasing the Principal Amount) or any optional repurchase of the Class A Notes, as applicable, pursuant to Section 10.1 (Authorization and Action of the Program Agent) or otherwise, or the assignment thereof in accordance with the requirements of the applicable Class A Program Support Agreement) of the principal amount of any portion of the Class A CP Tranche or Class A SOFR Tranche , as applicable, on a date other than a Payment Date;
(ii)any Class A Advance not being made as part of the Class A CP Tranche or Class A SOFR Tranche, as applicable, after a request for such a Class A Advance has been made in accordance with the terms contained herein;
(iii)any Class A Advance not being continued as part of the Class A CP Tranche or Class A SOFR Tranche, as applicable, or converted into a Class A Advance under the Class A SOFR Tranche, after a request for such a Class A Advance has been made in accordance with the terms contained herein;
(iv)any failure of HVF III to make a Class A Decrease after giving notice thereof pursuant to Section 2.3(b) (Mandatory Decrease) or Section 2.3(c) (Voluntary Decrease),
then, upon the written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) by any Affected Person to the related Funding Agent and HVF III, which written notice shall be conclusive and binding on HVF III (in the absence of manifest error), HVF III shall pay to such Funding Agent and such Funding Agent shall, on the next succeeding Payment Date, pay directly to such Affected Person such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Affected Person) reimburse such Affected Person for such loss or expense; provided that, the maximum amount payable by HVF III to any Affected Person in respect of any losses or expenses that result from any conversion, repayment or prepayment described in clause (i) above shall be the amount HVF III would be obligated to pay pursuant to clause (i) above if such conversion, repayment or prepayment were scheduled to have been paid on the next succeeding Payment Date; provided further that, in no event shall any amount be payable by HVF III to any Affected Person pursuant to this Section 3.6 (Funding Losses) as a result of any conversion, repayment, prepayment or non-payment with respect to any Class A CP Tranche unless (i) the amount of such conversion, repayment, prepayment or non-payment exceeds $100,000,000 with respect to such Affected Person and (ii) such Affected Person shall have received less than five (5) Business Days’ written notice from HVF III of such conversion, repayment, prepayment or non-payment, as the case may be.
Increased Capital Costs. If any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital required or reasonably expected to be maintained by any Affected Person or any Person controlling such Affected Person and such Affected Person reasonably determines that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of its commitment or the Class A Advances made by such Affected Person hereunder is reduced to a level below that which such Affected Person or such controlling Person would have achieved but for the occurrence of any such Change in Law, then, in any such case after notice from time to time by such Affected Person to the related Funding Agent and HVF III, HVF III shall pay to such Funding Agent and such Funding Agent shall pay to such Affected Person an incremental commitment fee, payable on each Payment Date, sufficient to compensate such Affected Person or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return to the extent that the increased costs for which such Affected Person is being compensated are allocable to the existence of such Affected Person’s Class A Advances or Class A Commitment, as applicable, hereunder. A statement of such Affected Person as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail), in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding on HVF III; provided that, the initial payment of such increased commitment fee shall include a payment for accrued amounts due under this Section 3.7 (Increased Capital Costs) prior to such initial payment.
Taxes.(a)All payments by HVF III of principal of, and interest on, the Class A Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder (including fees) shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, documentary, property, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding in the case of any Affected Person (x) net income, franchise or similar taxes (including branch profits taxes or alternative minimum tax) imposed or levied on the Affected Person as a result of a connection between the Affected Person and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising from such Affected Person having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced by, this Series 2021-A Supplement), (y) with respect to any Affected Person organized under the laws of the jurisdiction other than the United States (“Foreign Affected Person”), any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to the Foreign Affected Person at the time the Foreign Affected Person becomes a party to (or acquires a Participation in) this Series 2021-A Supplement (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Foreign Affected Person (or its assignor, if any) was already entitled, at the time of the designation of the new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from HVF III with respect to withholding tax and (z) United States federal withholding taxes that would not have been imposed but for a failure by an Affected Person (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to such Affected Person) to comply with the requirements of current Sections 1471-1474 of the Code, any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b)(1) of the Code, any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement or treaty among Governmental Authorities and published administrative guidance, in each case implementing such Sections of the Code (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”).
(b)Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against any Affected Person with respect to any payment received by such Affected Person or its agent from HVF III, such Affected Person or its agent may pay such Taxes and HVF III will promptly upon receipt of written notice stating the amount of such Taxes pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such person after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such person would have received had no such Taxes been asserted.
(c)If HVF III fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Affected Person or its agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, HVF III shall indemnify the Affected Person and their agent for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any such Affected Person or its agent as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 3.8 (Taxes), a distribution hereunder by the agent for the relevant Affected Person shall be deemed a payment by HVF III.
(d)Each Foreign Affected Person shall execute and deliver to HVF III, prior to the initial due date of any payments hereunder and to the extent permissible under then current law, and on or about the first scheduled payment date in each calendar year thereafter, one or more (as HVF III may reasonably request) United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, Forms W-8BEN-E, Forms W-8ECI or Forms W 9, or successor applicable forms, or such other forms or documents (or successor forms or documents), appropriately completed, as may be applicable to establish the extent, if any, to which a payment to such Affected Person is exempt from withholding or deduction of Taxes. HVF III shall not, however, be required to pay any increased amount under this Section 3.8 (Taxes) to any Affected Person that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States if such Affected Person fails to comply with the requirements set forth in this paragraph.
(e)If the Affected Person determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.8 (Taxes), it shall pay over such refund to HVF III (but only to the extent of amounts paid under this Section 3.8 (Taxes) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Affected Person and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund), provided that HVF III, upon the request of the Affected Person, agrees to repay the amount paid over to HVF III (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Affected Person in the event the Affected Person is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. This Section 3.8 (Taxes) shall not be construed to require the Affected Person to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to HVF III or any other Person.
Series 2021-A Carrying Charges; Survival. Any amounts payable by HVF III under the Specified Cost Sections shall constitute Series 2021-A Carrying Charges. The agreements in the Specified Cost Sections and Section 3.10 (Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment) shall survive the termination of this Series 2021-A Supplement and the Base Indenture and the payment of all amounts payable hereunder and thereunder.
Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment.(a)Each Affected Person shall be deemed to have agreed that it shall, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstance referred to in any Specified Cost Section, use commercially reasonable efforts (to the extent not inconsistent with its internal policies of general application) to minimize the costs, expenses, taxes or other liabilities incurred by it and payable to it by HVF III pursuant to such Specified Cost Section.
(b)In determining any amounts payable to it by HVF III pursuant to any Specified Cost Section, each Affected Person shall treat HVF III the same as or better than all similarly situated Persons (as determined by such Affected Person in its reasonable discretion) and such Affected Person may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its reasonable discretion) shall deem applicable so long as it applies such method to other similar transactions, such that HVF III is treated the same as, or better than, all such other similarly situated Persons with respect to such other similar transactions.
Timing Threshold for Specified Cost Sections. Notwithstanding anything in this Series 2021-A Supplement to the contrary, HVF III shall not be under any obligation to compensate any Affected Person pursuant to any Specified Cost Section in respect of any amount otherwise owing pursuant to any Specified Cost Section that arose during any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such Affected Person’s obtaining knowledge thereof, except that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. If, after the payment of any amounts by HVF III pursuant to any Specified Cost Section, any applicable law, rule or regulation in respect of which a payment was made is thereafter determined to be invalid or inapplicable to such Affected Person, then such Affected Person, within sixty (60) days after such determination, shall repay any amounts paid to it by HVF III hereunder in respect of such Change in Law.

No assignment by any Class A Conduit Investor to a Class A Conduit Assignee of all or any portion of the Class A Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor shall in any way diminish the obligation of the Class A Committed Note Purchasers in the same Class A Investor Group as such Class A Conduit Investor under Section 2.2 (Advances) to fund any Class A Advance not funded by such Class A Conduit Investor or such Class A Conduit Assignee.
(iii)Any Class A Conduit Investor and the Class A Committed Note Purchaser with respect to such Class A Conduit Investor (or, with respect to any Class A Investor Group without a Class A Conduit Investor, the related Class A Committed Note Purchaser) at any time may sell all or any part of their respective (or, with respect to a Class A Investor Group without a Class A Conduit Investor, its) rights and obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement and the Class A Notes, with the prior written consent of HVF III,

(iv)Any Class A Committed Note Purchaser may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more financial institutions or other entities (“Class A Participants”) participations in its Class A Committed Note Purchaser Percentage of the Class A Maximum Investor Group Principal Amount with respect to it and the other Class A Committed Note Purchasers included in the related Class A Investor Group, its Class A Note and its rights hereunder (or, in each case, a portion thereof) pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to such Class A Committed Note Purchaser and the Class A Participant; provided, however, that (i) in the event of any such sale by a Class A Committed Note Purchaser to a Class A Participant, (A) such Class A Committed Note Purchaser’s obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and (C) HVF III and the Program Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Class A Committed Note Purchaser in connection with its rights and obligations under this Series 2021-A Supplement, (ii) no Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall sell any participating interest under which the Class A Participant shall have any right to approve, veto, consent, waive or otherwise influence any approval, consent or waiver of such Class A Committed Note Purchaser with respect to any amendment, consent or waiver with respect to this Series 2021-A Supplement or any other Series 2021-A Related Document, except to the extent that the approval of such amendment, consent or waiver otherwise would require the unanimous consent of all Class A Committed Note Purchasers hereunder, and (iii) no Class A Committed Note Purchaser shall sell any participating interest to any Disqualified Party. A Class A Participant shall have the right to receive reimbursement for amounts due pursuant to each Specified Cost Section but only to the extent that the related selling Class A Committed Note Purchaser would have had such right absent the sale of the related participation and, with respect to amounts due pursuant to Section 3.8 (Taxes), only to the
extent such Class A Participant shall have complied with the provisions of Section 3.8 (Taxes) as if such Class A Participant were a Class A Committed Note Purchaser. Each such Class A Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to the provisions set forth in Section 3.10 (Minimizing Costs and Expenses and Equivalent Treatment) as if such Class A Participant were a Class A Committed Note Purchaser.
