SECTION 2.01. Purchase Facility .

(a) From time to time the Transferor may make available to the Transferee its inventory of Eligible Medallion Loans for the purpose of the Transferee’s considering whether it wishes to purchase any such loans. On the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Transferee may in its sole discretion purchase Medallion Loans and Related Assets with respect thereto from the Transferor from time to time during the period from the date the conditions precedent to the initial Purchase in Section 3.01 are satisfied to the Termination Date. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be or construed as a commitment by the Transferee to purchase any Medallion Loans or Related Assets at any time.

(b) It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Purchase or contribution made hereunder shall constitute a sale or contribution of such assets, which transfer is absolute and irrevocable and provides the Transferee with the full benefits of ownership of the purchased Medallion Loans and Related Assets. Neither the Transferor nor the Transferee intends the transfers contemplated hereunder to be, or for any purpose to be characterized as, loans from the Transferee to the Transferor secured by such transferred assets.

(c) In the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, any Medallion Loans are held to be the property of the Transferor, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such Medallion Loans, then this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement, the conveyance provided for in Section 2.01(a) shall be deemed to be a grant by the Transferor to the Transferee of a security interest in all of the Transferor’s right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (i) all accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit and uncertificated securities consisting of, arising from or relating to (a) the Medallion Loans, (b) the Related Assets with respect to such Medallion Loans, including the Obligor Notes, related security agreements and all other Loan Documents, (c) all Collections with respect to such Medallion Loans, including all cash collections and other cash proceeds of Medallion Loans, as well as other proceeds of such Medallion Loans or (d) all monies from time to time on deposit in, and all securities, instruments and other investments purchased from time to time with monies on deposit in, any Lock-Box Account or the Collection Account (whether or not allocated to any sub-account thereof) and (ii) all cash and non-cash proceeds of any of the foregoing.

(d) In view of the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchases made hereunder shall constitute sales of such Medallion Loans rather than a loan secured by such Medallion Loans, the Transferor agrees to note on its financial statements that such Medallion Loans and Related Assets have been sold to the Transferee.

(e) In furtherance of each Purchase, the Transferor shall execute and deliver to the Transferee a fully executed Transfer Agreement in the form included herein as Exhibit A in which the Medallion Loans being transferred by the Transferor to the Transferee by such Purchase shall be identified.

SECTION 2.02. Purchases from the Transferor .

(a) The initial Purchase shall be made on the Closing Date, provided that a notice requesting such Purchase (such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto) is received by the Transferee on or before the date of such initial Purchase. Each subsequent Purchase shall be made on a Business Day following the receipt by the Transferee of a written notice from the Transferor (such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto), with a copy sent to the Administrative Agent, at least one (1) Business Day before such subsequent purchase date. The Transferee shall promptly, after the receipt of such notice, notify the Transferor whether the Transferee has determined to make such Purchase.

(b) The purchase price (the " Purchase Price ") for Medallion Loans (together with Related Assets) shall be the Outstanding Balance of such Medallion Loans on the Transfer

8

Date (after giving effect to the scheduled payments due (whether or not received) on such Medallion Loans on or before the Transfer Date) plus accrued interest to but not including the Transfer Date, except that the Transferor may treat a portion of the Medallion Loans as a contribution to the capital of the Transferee in accordance with Section 2.02(d) . No offset of any kind by the Transferee with respect to any Purchase shall be permitted against the Purchase Price.

(c) The Transferee shall pay the Purchase Price for Medallion Loans (together with Related Assets) sold by the Transferor under this Agreement after the Closing Date on the Transfer Date on which such Medallion Loans are purchased, such payment to be made in cash, subject to Section 2.02(d) . On the date of each Purchase, the Transferee shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III , make available to the Transferor the Purchase Price in same day funds.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Transferor and the Transferee so elect, on any such Transfer Date the Transferor may designate in writing pursuant to the Form of Purchase Notice attached hereto as Exhibit C , all or a portion of the Medallion Loans (but not a portion of any individual Medallion Loan) proposed to be transferred to the Transferee on such Transfer Date as a capital contribution to the Transferee. In such an event, the Purchase Price payable with respect to such Purchase shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price that would be attributable to the contributed Medallion Loans if such Medallion Loans were sold, rather than contributed, to the Transferee hereunder; provided , however , that Medallion Loans contributed to the Transferee as capital shall otherwise constitute Medallion Loans for purposes of this Agreement. The Transferor and the Transferee hereby agree to note any such capital contribution on their respective financial statements.

SECTION 2.03. No Obligations or Taxes . The Transferor represents and warrants that (i) there will be no obligations of the Transferor under any Medallion Loans conveyed to the Transferee hereunder after the Closing Date remaining to be performed (and the exercise by the Transferee of any of its rights thereunder or hereunder shall not relieve the Transferor of such obligations if they do exist) and (ii) there will not be payable any taxes, including, without limitation, sales, excise and personal property taxes, in connection with any Medallion Loans conveyed to the Transferee hereunder after the Closing Date, except for income and similar taxes in connection with any Medallion Loans payable by the Transferor for periods on and prior to the Closing Date and payable by the Transferee for periods after the Closing Date.

SECTION 2.04. Collections .
