PRELIMINARY STATEMENT


Each of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture to
provide for the Notes issuable as provided in this Indenture.  All covenants and agreements made by the Issuer
and Co-Issuer herein are for the benefit and security of the Secured
Parties.  The Issuer, the Co-Issuer,
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity other than as Trustee,
and the Advancing Agent are entering into this Indenture, and the Trustee is
accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.


All things necessary to
make this Indenture a valid agreement of the Issuer and Co-Issuer in accordance
with this Indenture’s terms have been done.


GRANTING CLAUSES


The Issuer hereby Grants
to the Trustee, for the benefit and security of the Secured Parties, all of its
right, title and interest in, to and under, in each case, whether now owned or
existing, or hereafter acquired or arising (other than Excepted Assets), (a)
the Collateral Debt Securities listed in the Schedule of Closing Date
Collateral Debt Securities which the Issuer purchases on the Closing Date and
causes to be delivered to the Trustee (directly or through an agent or bailee)
herewith, all payments thereon or with respect thereto and all Collateral Debt
Securities which are delivered to the Trustee (directly or through an agent or

(including any Collateral Debt Securities Purchase Agreement entered into after

The collateral described in the foregoing clauses (a)-(g) is referred to
as the “Assets.”  For the avoidance of

each Hedge Agreement in accordance with their terms, (ii) the payment of all
other sums payable under this Indenture and (iii) compliance with the
provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture.  The foregoing Grant shall, for the purpose of
determining the property subject to the lien of this Indenture (but not for the
purpose of determining compliance with any of the Par Value Coverage Tests or
compliance by the Issuer with any of the other provisions hereof), be deemed to
include any securities and any investments granted by or on behalf of the
Issuer to the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge
Counterparty, whether or not such securities or such investments satisfy the
criteria set forth in the definitions of “Collateral Debt Security” or “Eligible
Investment,” as the case may be.


Except to the extent
otherwise provided in this Indenture, this Indenture shall constitute a
security agreement under the laws of the State of New York applicable to
agreements made and to be performed therein, for the benefit of the Noteholders
and each Hedge Counterparty.  Upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default hereunder, and
in addition to any other rights available under this Indenture or any other
Assets held for the benefit and security of the Noteholders and each Hedge
Counterparty or otherwise available at law or in equity but subject to the
terms hereof, the Trustee shall have all rights and remedies of a secured party
on default under the laws of the State of New York and other applicable law to
enforce the assignments and security interests contained herein and, in
addition, shall have the right, subject to compliance with any mandatory
requirements of applicable law and the terms of this Indenture, to sell or
apply any rights and other interests assigned or pledged hereby in accordance
with the terms hereof at public and private sale.


The Trustee acknowledges
such Grants, accepts the trusts hereunder in accordance with the provisions

grace period or waiver), (2) as to which there is known to the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager a default (other than any payment default) which default
entitles the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity of all or a portion of

Security, Single Asset Mortgage Security, Single Borrower Mortgage Security or
Rake Bond, except that a CMBS Security, Single Asset Mortgage Security, Single
Borrower Mortgage Security or Rake Bond shall not constitute a “Defaulted
Security” under this clause (5) if each of the Rating Agencies has confirmed in

(y) three payment periods (if such CMBS Security, Single Asset Mortgage
Security, Single Borrower Mortgage Security or Rake Bond is rated (or privately
rated for purposes of the issuance of the Securities) below “Baa3” by Moody’s
or “BBB-” by S&P or Fitch); provided, however, if the Rating

Borrower Mortgage Security or Rake Bond is rated (or privately rated for
purposes of the issuance of the Securities) “BBB” or higher by S&P or
Fitch, or “Baa3” or higher by Moody’s) even if by its terms it provides for the
deferral and capitalization of interest thereon;


provided  that any Collateral Debt Security which has sustained
a write-down of principal balance in accordance with its terms shall not
necessarily be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to such writedown.


For purposes of
calculating the Par Value Ratios, an appraisal reduction of a Collateral Debt
Security shall be assumed to result in an implied reduction of principal
balance for such Collateral Debt Security only if such appraisal reduction is
intended to reduce the interest payable on such Collateral Debt Security and
only in proportion to such interest reduction. 
For purposes of calculating the Par Value Ratios, any Collateral Debt
Security that has sustained an implied reduction of principal balance due to an
appraisal reduction shall not be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to
such implied reduction.  The Collateral
Manager shall notify the Trustee of any appraisal reductions of Collateral Debt
Securities if the Collateral Manager has actual knowledge thereof.


For the avoidance of
doubt, the parties hereto understand and agree that any initial permissible
60-day extension period described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this definition
shall in no event be combined with any subsequent permissible 30-day extension
period described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this definition.

determined pursuant to a method determined by Moody’s on a case-by-case basis
and (y) the Aggregate Principal Balance of Collateral Debt Securities the Moody’s
Rating of which is based on an S&P rating or a Fitch rating may not exceed

Moody’s Test Matrix, with respect to Moody’s, the S&P Test Matrix, with
respect to S&P, or the Fitch Test Matrix, with respect to Fitch, in each

date of determination, a Fixed Rate Security that is a Covered Floating Rate
Security shall, at the Collateral Manager’s sole discretion, be deemed to be
either a Floating Rate Security or a Fixed Rate Security.  For the avoidance of doubt, any capitalized
interest in respect of any Partially Deferred Loan shall be disregarded for
purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Spread.

Section 1.2             Assumptions
as to Pledged Obligations.


(a)      In connection with all
calculations required to be made pursuant to this Indenture with respect to
Scheduled Distributions on any Pledged Obligation, or any payments on any other
assets included in the Assets, and with respect to the income that can be
earned on Scheduled Distributions on such Pledged Obligations and on any other
amounts that may be received for deposit in the applicable Collection Account,
the provisions set forth in this Section 1.2 shall be applied.


(b)      All calculations with
respect to Scheduled Distributions on the Pledged Obligations securing the
Notes shall be made on the basis of information as to the terms of each such
Pledged Obligation and upon report of payments, if any, received on such
Pledged Obligation that are furnished by or on behalf of the issuer of such
Pledged Obligation and, to the extent they are not manifestly in error, such
information or report may be conclusively relied upon in making such
calculations.


(c)      For each Due Period, the
Scheduled Distribution on any Pledged Obligation (other than a Defaulted
Security, which, except as otherwise provided herein, shall be assumed to have
a Scheduled Distribution of zero) shall be the sum of (i) the total amount of
payments and collections in respect of such Pledged Obligation (including all
Sales Proceeds received during the Due Period and not reinvested in Substitute
Collateral Debt Securities or retained in the Principal Collection Account for
subsequent reinvestment) that, if paid as scheduled, will be available in the
Collection Accounts at the end of such Due Period


 


89





















 


for payment on the
Notes and of expenses of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer pursuant to the Priority
of Payments and (ii) any such amounts received in prior Due Periods that were
not disbursed on a previous Payment Date and do not constitute amounts which
have been used as reimbursement with respect to a prior Interest Advance
pursuant to the terms of this Indenture.


(d)      With respect to any
Collateral Debt Security as to which any interest or other payment thereon is
subject to withholding tax of any relevant jurisdiction, each Scheduled
Distribution thereon shall, for purposes of the Par Value Coverage Tests and
the Collateral Quality Tests, be deemed to be payable net of such withholding
tax unless the issuer thereof or obligor thereon is required to make additional
payments to fully compensate the Issuer for such withholding taxes (including
in respect of any such additional payments). 
On any date of determination, the amount of any Scheduled Distribution
due on any future date shall be assumed to be made net of any such
uncompensated withholding tax based upon withholding tax rates in effect on
such date of determination.


(e)      Each Scheduled
Distribution receivable with respect to a Pledged Obligation shall be assumed
to be received on the applicable Due Date, and each such Scheduled Distribution
shall be assumed to be immediately deposited in the applicable Collection
Account except to the extent the Collateral Manager has a reasonable
expectation that such Scheduled Distribution will not be received on the
applicable Due Date.  All such funds
shall be assumed to continue to earn interest until the date on which they are
required to be available in the applicable Collection Account for transfer to
the Payment Account for application, in accordance with the terms hereof, to
payments of principal of or interest on the Notes or other amounts payable
pursuant to this Indenture.


(f)       All calculations
required to be made and all reports which are to be prepared pursuant to this
Indenture with respect to the Pledged Obligations, shall be made on the basis
of the date on which the Issuer makes a commitment to purchase or sell an asset
(the “trade date”),
not the settlement date.


(g)      For purposes of
calculating the Par Value Ratio, an appraisal reduction of a Collateral Debt
Security shall be assumed to result in an implied reduction of Principal
Balance for such Collateral Debt Security only if such appraisal reduction is
intended to reduce the interest payable on such Collateral Debt Security and
only in proportion to such interest reduction. 
For purposes of the Par Value Ratio, any Collateral Debt Security that
has sustained an implied reduction of Principal Balance due to an appraisal
reduction shall not be considered a Defaulted Security solely due to such
implied reduction.  The Collateral
Manager shall notify the Trustee of any appraisal reductions of Collateral Debt
Securities if the Collateral Manager has actual knowledge thereof.


(h)      For purposes of
calculating the Weighted Average Coupon in respect of Fixed Rate Securities
that are subject to any Servicing Agreement, the current interest rates in
respect of such Fixed Rate Securities shall be adjusted to reflect the amount
of interest withheld by or on behalf of the related servicer in respect of such
Fixed Rate Securities as a part of its Servicing Fee.  For purposes of calculating the Weighted
Average Spread in respect of Floating Rate Securities that are subject to any
Servicing Agreement, the stated spreads above LIBOR in respect of such Floating
Rate Securities shall be adjusted to reflect the


 


90





















 


amount of interest
withheld by or on behalf of the related servicer in respect of such Floating
Rate Securities as a part of its Servicing Fee.


(i)       Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in the Eligibility Criteria, in the event of a
conflict between the terms of the Eligibility Criteria set forth in paragraphs
(xxii), (xxiii), (xxiv) and (xxv) of the definition thereof and the Collateral
Quality Test set forth in paragraph (vii) of the definition thereof, the terms
of the Collateral Quality Test set forth in paragraph (vii) of the definition
thereof shall be controlling.


(j)       Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in the Collateral Quality Tests, in the event of a
conflict between the terms of the Eligibility Criteria set forth in paragraph
(xxv) of the definition thereof and the Collateral Quality Test set forth in
paragraph (viii) of the definition thereof, the terms of the Eligibility
Criteria set forth in paragraph (xxv) of the definition thereof shall be
controlling.


(k)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that, as of any date of
determination, the Collateral Manager elects to treat a Floating Rate Security
that is a Covered Fixed Rate Security as a Fixed Rate Security or a Floating
Rate Security for purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Spread as of
such date of determination, such Collateral Debt Security shall be treated in
the same way (i.e., as elected by the Collateral Manager for purposes of
calculating Weighted Average Spread) for purposes of calculating the Weighted
Average Coupon, as of such date of determination.


(l)       Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that, as of any date of
determination, the Collateral Manager elects to treat a Fixed Rate Security
that is a Covered Floating Rate Security as a Floating Rate Security or a Fixed
Rate Security for purposes of calculating the Weighted Average Coupon as of
such date of determination, such Collateral Debt Security shall be treated in
the same way (i.e., as elected by the Collateral Manager for purposes of calculating
Weighted Average Coupon) for purposes of calculating the Weighted Average
Spread, as of such date of determination.


Section 1.3             Interest
Calculation Convention.


All calculations of
interest hereunder that are made with respect to the Floating Rate Notes shall
be made on the basis of the actual number of days during the related Interest
Accrual Period divided by 360.  All
calculations of interest hereunder that are made with respect to the Fixed Rate
Notes shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days during the
related Interest Accrual Period (based on a year of twelve 30-day months)
divided by 360.


Section 1.4             Rounding
Convention.


Unless otherwise
specified herein, test calculations that evaluate to a percentage shall be
rounded to the nearest hundredth of a percentage point and test calculations
that evaluate to a number or decimal shall be rounded to 2 decimal places.

Section 1.5             Servicing
Override.


For the avoidance of
doubt, in the case of any decision or action required or permitted to be taken
by the Collateral Manager hereunder, any such action shall be subject to
override by the Special Servicer to the extent set forth in the Collateral
Management Agreement and the Asset Servicing Agreement.

to Global Securities deposited with or on behalf of the Depository.


Each of the Issuer and
Co-Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section
2.2(c), authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global Securities
that shall be (i) registered in the name of the nominee of the Depository for
such Global Security or Global Securities and (ii) delivered by the Trustee to
such Depository or pursuant to such Depository’s instructions or held by the Trustee’s
agent as custodian for the Depository.


Agent Members shall have
no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on
their behalf by the Trustee, as custodian for the Depository or under the
Global Security, and the Depository may be treated by the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the
Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes
whatsoever.  Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, or any
agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee, from giving effect to any
written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository
or impair, as between the Depository and its Agent Members, the operation of
customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any
Global Security.


(d)      Delivery of
Certificated Notes in Lieu of Global Securities.  Except as provided in Section 2.10
hereof, owners of beneficial interests in a Class of Global Securities shall
not be entitled to receive physical delivery of a Certificated Note.

(b)      The Notes shall be
issuable in minimum denominations of U.S.$400,000 and integral multiples of
U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof (plus any residual amount).


Section 2.4             Execution,
Authentication, Delivery and Dating.


The Notes shall be
executed on behalf of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer by an Authorized Officer of
the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, respectively. 
The signature of such Authorized Officers on the Notes may be manual or
facsimile.


Notes bearing the manual
or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the Authorized
Officers of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer shall bind the Issuer or the Co-Issuer,
as the case may be, notwithstanding the fact that such individuals or any of
them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Notes or did not hold such offices at the date of issuance of such
Notes.


 


95

















 


At any time and from time
to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer to the
Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for authentication and the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent, upon Issuer Order, shall authenticate and deliver such
Notes as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.


Each Note authenticated
and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon Issuer Order on
the Closing Date shall be dated as of the Closing Date.  All other Notes that are authenticated after
the Closing Date for any other purpose under this Indenture shall be dated the
date of their authentication.


Notes issued upon
transfer, exchange or replacement of other Notes shall be issued in authorized
denominations reflecting the original aggregate principal amount of the Notes
so transferred, exchanged or replaced, but shall represent only the current
outstanding principal amount of the Notes so transferred, exchanged or
replaced.  In the event that any Note is
divided into more than one Note in accordance with this Article 2, the
original principal amount of such Note shall be proportionately divided among
the Notes delivered in exchange therefor and shall be deemed to be the original
aggregate principal amount of such subsequently issued Notes.


No Note shall be entitled
to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose,
unless there appears on such Note a Certificate of Authentication,
substantially in the form provided for herein, executed by the Trustee or by
the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of one of their Authorized
Officers, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and
the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder.


Section 2.5             Registration,
Registration of Transfer and Exchange.


(a)      The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall cause to be kept a register (the “Notes Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall provide for
the registration of Notes and the registration of transfers and exchanges of
Notes.  The Trustee is hereby initially
appointed “Notes Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers
and exchanges of such Notes with respect to the Notes Register as herein
provided.  Upon any resignation or
removal of the Notes Registrar, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall promptly appoint
a successor or, in the absence of such appointment, assume the duties of Notes
Registrar.


If a Person other than
the Trustee is appointed by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer as Notes Registrar,
the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall give the Trustee prompt written notice of
the appointment of a successor Notes Registrar and of the location, and any
change in the location, of the Notes Registrar, and the Trustee shall have the
right to inspect the Notes Register at all reasonable times and to obtain
copies thereof and the Trustee shall have the right to rely upon a certificate
executed on behalf of the Notes Registrar by an Officer thereof as to the names
and addresses of the Holders of the Notes and the principal amounts and numbers
of such Notes.


 


96

















 


Subject to this Section
2.5, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Notes at the office
or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 7.2, the
Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal
amount.


At the option of the
Holder, Notes may be exchanged for Notes of like terms, in any authorized denominations
and of like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be
exchanged at such office or agency. 
Whenever any Note is surrendered for exchange, the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the
Notes that the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.


All Notes issued and
authenticated upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be
the valid obligations of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, evidencing the same debt,
and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.


Every Note presented or
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed, or
be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Issuer and the Notes Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing.


No service charge shall
be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but
the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith.


None of the Notes
Registrar, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer shall be required (i) to issue, register
the transfer of or exchange any Note during a period beginning at the opening
of business fifteen (15) days before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and
ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the relevant
notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note
so selected for redemption.


(b)      No Note may be sold or
transferred (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation) unless
such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and is exempt from the registration requirements under applicable state
securities laws.


(c)      No Offered Note may be
offered, sold, resold or delivered, within the United States or to, or for the
benefit of, U.S. Persons except in accordance with Section 2.5(e) below
and in accordance with Rule 144A to QIBs who are Qualified Purchasers
purchasing for their own account or for the accounts of one or more QIBs who
are Qualified Purchasers, for which the purchaser is acting as fiduciary or
agent.  The Offered Notes may be offered,
sold, resold or delivered, as the case may be, in offshore transactions to
non-U.S. Persons in reliance on Regulation S. 
None of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person may
register the Notes under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.


(d)      Upon final payment due on
the Stated Maturity of a Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender
such Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at


 


97





















 


the office of the
Paying Agent (outside the United States if then required by applicable law in
the case of a Note in definitive form issued in exchange for a beneficial
interest in a Regulation S Global Security pursuant to Section 2.10).


(e)      Transfers of Global
Securities.  Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Security remains
outstanding and is held by or on behalf of the Depository, transfers of a
Global Security, in whole or in part, shall be made only in accordance with Section
2.2(c) and this Section 2.5(e).


(i)       Subject to clauses (ii) through (iv) of
this Section 2.5(e), transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to
transfers of such Global Security in whole, but not in part, to nominees of the
Depository or to a successor of the Depository or such successor’s nominee.


(ii)      Regulation S Global Security to Rule
144A Global Security.  If a holder of
a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security wishes to transfer all
or a part of its interest in such Regulation S Global Security to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a Rule 144A Global Security,
such holder may, subject to the terms hereof and the rules and procedures of
Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be,
exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial
interest in a Rule 144A Global Security of the same Class.  Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Notes
Registrar, of (A) instructions from Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the
Depository, as the case may be, directing the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, to
cause such Rule 144A Global Security to be increased by an amount equal to such
beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Security but not less than the
minimum denomination applicable to the related Class of Notes, and (B) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto given by the
prospective transferee of such beneficial interest and stating, among other
things, that such transferee acquiring such interest in a Rule 144A Global
Security is a QIB and a Qualified Purchaser, is obtaining such beneficial
interest in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144A and in accordance with any
applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other
applicable jurisdiction, then Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the
Trustee, as Notes Registrar, as the case may be, shall approve the instruction
at the Depository to reduce such Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate
principal amount of the interest in such Regulation S Global Security to be
transferred and increase the Rule 144A Global Security specified in such
instructions by an Aggregate Outstanding Amount equal to such reduction in such
principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security.


(iii)     Rule 144A Global Security to Regulation
S Global Security.  If a holder of a
beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Global Security wishes to transfer all or a
part of its interest in such Rule 144A Global Security to a Person who wishes
to take delivery thereof in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, such
holder may, subject to the terms hereof and the rules and procedures of
Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository, as the case may be,
exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent beneficial
interest in a Regulation S Global Security of the same Class.  Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Notes
Registrar, of (A) instructions from Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Depository,
as the case may be, directing the Trustee, as


 


98





















 


Notes Registrar,
to cause such Regulation S Global Security to be increased by an amount equal
to the beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Global Security but not less than
the minimum denomination applicable to the related Class of Notes to be
exchanged, and (B) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C
hereto given by the prospective transferee of such beneficial interest and
stating, among other things, that such transferee acquiring such interest in a
Regulation S Global Security is a not a U.S. Person and that such transfer is
being made pursuant to Rule 903 or 904 under Regulation S, then Euroclear,
Clearstream, Luxembourg or the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, as the case may be,
shall approve the instruction at the Depository to reduce such Rule 144A Global
Security by the aggregate principal amount of the interest in such Rule 144A
Global Security to be transferred and increase the Regulation S Global Security
specified in such instructions by an Aggregate Outstanding Amount equal to such
reduction in the principal amount of the Rule 144A Global Security.


(iv)    Other Exchanges.  (A)  In
the event that, pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof, a Global Security is
exchanged for Certificated Notes, such Notes may be exchanged for one another
only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with
the provisions above (including certification requirements intended to ensure
that such transfers are to a QIB who is also a Qualified Purchaser or are to a
non-U.S. Person, or otherwise comply with Rule 144A or Regulation S, as the
case may be) and as may be from time to time adopted by the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer and the Trustee.


(B)     Subject to satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in subparagraph (D) of this Section 2.5(e)(iv),
a Non-Offered Note represented by a Certificated Note may be transferred to a
Qualified Institutional Buyer in the form of a Certificated Note upon receipt
by the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, of a certificate substantially in the form
of Exhibit E-2 hereto given by the prospective transferee of such
beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that such transferee
acquiring such interest in a Rule 144A Global Security is a QIB and a Qualified
Purchaser, is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction pursuant to
Rule 144A and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of
the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction.  In connection with any such transfer, such
prospective transferee shall be deemed to have made the applicable
representations contained in Section 2.5(g) hereof.


(C)     Subject to satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in subparagraph (D) of this Section 2.5(e)(iv),
a Non-Offered Note represented by a Certificated Note may be transferred to a
Person other than a U.S. Person in the form of a Certificated Note upon receipt
by the Trustee, as Notes Registrar, of a certificate substantially in the form
of Exhibit E-1 hereto given by the prospective transferee of such
beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that such transferee
acquiring such interest in a Regulation S Global Security is a not a U.S.
Person and that such transfer is being made pursuant to Rule 903 or 904 under
Regulation S.  In connection with any such
transfer, such prospective


 


99





















 


transferee shall
be deemed to have made the applicable representations contained in Section
2.5(g) hereof.


(D)     Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Indenture to the contrary, as long as any Class of Offered
Notes is Outstanding, no wholly-owned and disregarded, direct or indirect,
subsidiary of GKK may sell or otherwise transfer or finance any Non-Offered
Note to any other Person that is not a wholly-owned and disregarded, direct or
indirect, subsidiary of GKK unless the Issuer and the Trustee shall have
received an appropriate Tax Opinion to the effect that the Class J Notes or the
Class K Notes, as applicable, will be treated as debt for U.S. federal income
tax purposes at the time of such sale, transfer or financing and that such
sale, transfer or financing will not cause the Issuer to fail to be a Qualified
REIT Subsidiary.


(f)       Removal of Legend.  If Notes are issued upon the transfer, exchange
or replacement of Notes bearing the applicable legends set forth in Exhibits
A and B hereto, and if a request is made to remove such applicable
legend on such Notes, the Notes so issued shall bear such applicable legend, or
such applicable legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there
is delivered to the Issuer and the Co-Issuer such satisfactory evidence, which
may include an Opinion of Counsel of an attorney at law licensed to practice
law in the State of New York (and addressed to the Issuer and the Trustee), as
may be reasonably required by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, to
the effect that neither such applicable legend nor the restrictions on transfer
set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the
provisions of Rule 144A or Regulation S, as applicable, the Investment Company
Act or ERISA.  So long as the Issuer or
the Co-Issuer is relying on an exemption under or promulgated pursuant to the
Investment Company Act, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer shall not remove that
portion of the legend required to maintain an exemption under or promulgated
pursuant to the Investment Company Act. 
Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, as confirmed in writing by
the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, to the Trustee, the Trustee, at
the direction of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, shall
authenticate and deliver Notes that do not bear such applicable legend.


(g)      Each beneficial owner of
Rule 144A Global Securities shall be deemed to represent and agree as follows
(terms used in this paragraph that are defined in Rule 144A are used herein as
defined therein):


(i)       In the case of a Rule 144A Global
Security, the owner (A) is a QIB and a Qualified Purchaser, (B) is aware that
the sale of the Notes to it (other than the initial sale by the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer) is being made in reliance on the exemption from registration
provided by Rule 144A and (C) is acquiring the Notes for its own account or for
one or more accounts, each of which is a QIB and a Qualified Purchaser, and as
to each of which the owner exercises sole investment discretion in a principal
amount of not less than U.S.$100,000 for each such account.


(ii)      The owner understands that the Notes are
being offered only in a transaction not involving any public offering in the
United States within the meaning of


 


100





















 


the Securities
Act, the Notes have not been and shall not be registered under the Securities
Act, and, if in the future the owner decides to offer, resell, pledge or
otherwise transfer the Notes, such Notes may only be offered, resold, pledged
or otherwise transferred in accordance with this Indenture and the applicable
legend on such Notes set forth in Exhibits A and B, as
applicable.  The owner acknowledges that
no representation is made by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Dealers, as the
case may be, as to the availability of any exemption under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws for resale of the Notes.


(iii)     The owner is not purchasing the Notes with
a view to the resale, distribution or other disposition thereof in violation of
the Securities Act.  The owner
understands that an investment in the Notes involves certain risks, including
the risk of loss of all or a substantial part of its investment under certain
circumstances.  The owner has had access
to such financial and other information concerning the Issuer, the Co-Issuer
and the Notes as it deemed necessary or appropriate in order to make an
informed investment decision with respect to its purchase of the Notes,
including an opportunity to ask questions of and request information from the
Collateral Manager, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer.


(iv)    In connection with the purchase of the Notes
(A) none of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Dealers, the Collateral Manager or
the Trustee is acting as a fiduciary or financial or investment adviser for the
owner; (B) the owner is not relying (for purposes of making any investment
decision or otherwise) upon any advice, counsel or representations (whether
written or oral) of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Dealers, the Collateral
Manager or the Trustee other than in a current offering memorandum for such
Notes and any representations expressly set forth in a written agreement with
such party; (C) none of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Dealers, the Collateral
Manager or the Trustee has given to the owner (directly or indirectly through
any other person) any assurance, guarantee, or representation whatsoever as to
the expected or projected success, profitability, return, performance, result,
effect, consequence, or benefit (including legal, regulatory, tax, financial,
accounting, or otherwise) of its purchase; (D) the owner has consulted with its
own legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial, and accounting
advisers to the extent it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own
investment decisions (including decisions regarding the suitability of any
transaction pursuant to this Indenture) based upon its own judgment and upon
any advice from such advisers as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view
expressed by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Dealers, the Collateral Manager or
the Trustee; and (E) the owner is purchasing the Notes with a full understanding
of all of the terms, conditions and risks thereof (economic and otherwise), and
is capable of assuming and willing to assume (financially and otherwise) these
risks.


(v)     The owner understands that the Notes shall
bear the applicable legend set forth in Exhibits A and B as
applicable.  The Rule 144A Global
Securities may not at any time be held by or on behalf of any Person that is
not a QIB who is a Qualified Purchaser. 
The owner must inform a prospective transferee of the transfer
restrictions.


 


101


















(vi)    Unless a prospective Holder of an Offered
Note otherwise provides another representation acceptable to the Trustee, the
Collateral Manager, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, each Holder of an Offered
Note, by its acquisition thereof, shall be deemed to have represented to the
Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Trustee that either (A)
no part of the funds being used to pay the purchase price for such Offered
Notes constitutes an asset of any “employee benefit plan” (as defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA) or “plan” (as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code)
that is subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any other
plan which is subject to any federal, state or local law (“Similar Law”) that is
substantially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each
a “Benefit Plan”),
or an entity whose underlying assets include plan assets of any such Benefit
Plan, or (B) its acquisition and holding of such Note do not and will not
constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406
of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or in the case of any Benefit Plan
subject to Similar Law, do not and will not result in a non-exempt violation of
Similar Law.  No Non-Offered Note may be
transferred to a Benefit Plan or an entity whose underlying assets include
assets of any Benefit Plan.


(vii)   The owner shall not, at any time, offer to
buy or offer to sell the Notes by any form of general solicitation or
advertising, including, but not limited to, any advertisement, article, notice
or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar medium
or broadcast over television or radio or at a seminar or meeting whose
attendees have been invited by general solicitations or advertising.


(viii)  The owner is not a member of the public in the
Cayman Islands, within the meaning of Section 194 of the Cayman Islands
Companies Law (2007 Revision), unless the Issuer has been listed on the Cayman
Islands Stock Exchange.


(ix)     The owner understands that the Issuer,
Co-Issuer, Trustee or Paying Agent shall require certification acceptable to it
(A) as a condition to the payment of principal of and interest on any Notes
without, or at a reduced rate of, U.S. withholding or backup withholding tax,
and (B) to enable the Issuer, Co-Issuer, Trustee and Paying Agent to determine
their duties and liabilities with respect to any taxes or other charges that
they may be required to pay, deduct or withhold from payments in respect of
such Notes or the Holder of such Notes under any present or future law or
regulation of the Cayman Islands or the United States or any present or future
law or regulation of any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority
therein or to comply with any reporting or other requirements under any such
law or regulation.  Such certification
may include U.S. federal income tax forms (such as IRS Form W-8BEN
(Certification of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner), IRS Form W-8IMY
(Certification of Foreign Intermediary Status), IRS Form W-9 (Request for
Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification), or IRS Form W-8ECI
(Certification of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption from Withholding on
Income Effectively Connected with Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business) or any
successors to such IRS forms).  In
addition, the Issuer, Co-Issuer, Trustee or Paying Agent may require
certification acceptable to it to enable the Issuer to qualify for a reduced
rate of withholding in any jurisdiction from or through which the Issuer
receives payments on its assets.  Each
owner agrees to provide any certification requested pursuant to this


 


102





















 


paragraph and to
update or replace such form or certification in accordance with its terms or
its subsequent amendments.


(x)      The owner hereby agrees that, for purposes
of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax and any other income
taxes, (A) the Notes will be treated as indebtedness, and (B) the Preferred
Shares will be treated as equity; the owner agrees to such treatment and agrees
to take no action inconsistent with such treatment, unless required by law.


(xi)     The owner, if not a “United States person”
(as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), either:  (A) is not a bank (within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(A) of the Code); (B) is a bank and has provided an IRS Form W-8ECI
representing that all payments received or to be received by it from the Issuer
are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United
States; or (C) is a bank and is eligible for benefits under an income tax
treaty with the United States that eliminates U.S. federal income taxation of
U.S. source interest not attributable to a permanent establishment in the
United States and the Issuer is treated as a fiscally transparent entity (as
defined in Treasury Regulations section 1.894-1(d)(3)(iii)) under the laws of
owner’s jurisdiction with respect to payments made on the Offered Notes held by
the owner.


(xii)    The owner acknowledges that it is its intent
and that it understands it is the intent of the Issuer that, for purposes of
U.S. federal income, state and local income and franchise tax and any other
income taxes, for so long as Gramercy Investment or a direct or indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary of Gramercy Investment owns 100% of the Non-Offered
Notes, the Issuer’s ordinary shares and Preferred Shares, the Issuer will be
treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary of Gramercy Investment and the Notes
will be treated as indebtedness solely of Gramercy Investment and the Issuer’s
ordinary shares and Preferred Shares will be treated as equity of the Gramercy
Investment; the owner agrees to such treatment and agrees to take no action
inconsistent with such treatment.


(h)      Each beneficial owner of
Regulation S Global Securities shall be deemed to have made the representations
set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix), (x), (xi)
and (xii) of Section 2.5(g) and shall be deemed to have further
represented and agreed as follows:


The owner is aware
that the sale of such Offered Notes to it is being made in reliance on the
exemption from registration provided by Regulation S and understands that the
Offered Notes offered in reliance on Regulation S will bear the appropriate
legend set forth in Exhibit A or B, as applicable, and be
represented by one or more Regulation S Global Securities.  The Offered Notes so represented may not at
any time be held by or on behalf of U.S. Persons.  Each of the owner and the related Holder is
not, and shall not be, a U.S. Person. 
Before any interest in a Regulation S Global Security may be offered,
resold, pledged or otherwise transferred to a person who takes delivery in the
form of a Rule 144A Global Security, the transferee shall be required to
provide the Trustee with a written certification substantially in the form of Exhibits
C and D as


 


103





















 


applicable hereto as to
compliance with the transfer restrictions. 
The owner must inform a prospective transferee of the transfer
restrictions.


(i)       Any purported transfer
of a Note not in accordance with this Section 2.5 shall be null and void
and shall not be given effect for any purpose hereunder.


(j)       Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Indenture to the contrary, neither the Trustee nor the Notes
Registrar (nor any other Transfer Agent) shall be responsible or liable for
compliance with applicable federal or state securities laws (including, without
limitation, the Securities Act or Rule 144A or Regulation S promulgated thereunder),
the Investment Company Act, ERISA or the Code (or any applicable regulations
thereunder); provided, however,
that if a specified transfer certificate or Opinion of Counsel is required by
the express terms of this Section 2.5 to be delivered to the Trustee or
Notes Registrar prior to registration of transfer of a Note, the Trustee and/or
Notes Registrar, as applicable, is required to request, as a condition for
registering the transfer of the Note, such certificate or Opinion of Counsel
and to examine the same to determine whether it conforms on its face to the
requirements hereof (and the Trustee or Notes Registrar, as the case may be,
shall promptly notify the party delivering the same if it determines that such
certificate or Opinion of Counsel does not so conform).


(k)      If the Trustee determines
or is notified by the Issuer, Co-Issuer or the Collateral Manager that (i) a
transfer or attempted or purported transfer of any interest in any Note was
consummated in compliance with the provisions of this Section 2.5 on the
basis of a materially incorrect certification from the transferee or purported
transferee, (ii) a transferee failed to deliver to the Trustee any
certification required to be delivered hereunder or (iii) the holder of any
interest in a Note is in breach of any representation or agreement set forth in
any certification or any deemed representation or agreement of such holder, the
Trustee shall not register such attempted or purported transfer and if a
transfer has been registered, such transfer shall be absolutely null and void ab initio and shall vest no rights in the purported
transferee (such purported transferee, a “Disqualified Transferee”) and the last preceding
holder of such interest in such Note that was not a Disqualified Transferee
shall be restored to all rights as a Holder thereof retroactively to the date
of transfer of such Note by such Holder.


In addition, the Trustee
may require that the interest in the Note referred to in (i), (ii) or (iii) in
the preceding paragraph be transferred to any person designated by the Issuer
or the Collateral Manager at a price determined by the Issuer or the Collateral
Manager, as applicable, based upon its estimation of the prevailing price of
such interest and each Holder, by acceptance of an interest in a Note,
authorizes the Trustee to take such action. 
In any case, the Trustee shall not be held responsible for any losses
that may be incurred as a result of any required transfer under this Section
2.5(l).


(l)       Each Holder of Notes
approves and consents to (i) the initial purchase of the Collateral Debt
Securities by the Issuer from Affiliates of the Collateral Manager on or prior
to the Closing Date and (ii) any other transaction between the Issuer and the
Collateral Manager or its Affiliates that are permitted under the terms of this
Indenture or the Collateral Management Agreement.

Section 2.6             Mutilated,
Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Note.


If (a) any mutilated or
defaced Note is surrendered to a Transfer Agent, or if there shall be delivered
to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee and the relevant Transfer Agent (each
a “Specified Person”)
evidence to their reasonable satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any Note, and (b) there is delivered to the Specified Person such security or
indemnity as may be required by each Specified Person to save each of them and
any agent of any of them harmless (an unsecured indemnity agreement delivered
to the Trustee by an institutional investor with a net worth of at least
U.S.$200,000,000 being deemed sufficient to satisfy such security or indemnity
requirement), then, in the absence of notice to the Specified Persons that such
Note has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall execute and, upon Issuer Request,
the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such mutilated,
defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note, of like tenor (including
the same date of issuance) and equal principal amount, registered in the same
manner, dated the date of its authentication, bearing interest from the date to
which interest has been paid on the mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


If, after delivery of
such new Note, a bona fide purchaser of the
predecessor Note presents for payment, transfer or exchange such predecessor
Note, any Specified Person shall be entitled to recover such new Note from the
Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking therefrom, and each
Specified Person shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity
provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred
by such Specified Person in connection therewith.


In case any such
mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become due and payable,
the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, in their discretion may, instead
of issuing a new Note, pay such Note without requiring surrender thereof except
that any mutilated or defaced Note shall be surrendered.


Upon the issuance of any
new Note under this Section 2.6, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if
applicable, may require the payment by the registered Holder thereof of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee) connected therewith.


Every new Note issued
pursuant to this Section 2.6 in lieu of any mutilated, defaced,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, and such
new Note shall be entitled, subject to the second paragraph of this Section
2.6, to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.


The provisions of this Section
2.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other
rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

(p)      As a condition to the
payment of principal of and interest on any Note without the imposition of U.S.
withholding tax, the Issuer shall require certification acceptable to it to enable
the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, the Preferred Shares Paying Agent and
the Paying Agent to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any
taxes or other charges that they may be required to deduct or withhold from
payments in respect of such Security under any present or future law or
regulation of the United States or any present or future law or regulation of
any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein or to comply with
any reporting or other requirements under any such law or regulation.


(q)      Payments in respect of
interest on and principal of the Notes shall be payable by wire transfer in
immediately available funds to a Dollar account maintained by the Holder or its
nominee; provided that the Holder has provided wiring instructions to
the Trustee on or before the related Record Date or, if wire transfer cannot be
effected, by a Dollar check drawn on a bank in the United States, or by a
Dollar check mailed to the Holder at its address in the Notes Register.  The Issuer expects that the Depository or its
nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal or interest in respect of a
Global Security held by the Depository or its nominee, shall immediately credit
the applicable Agent Members’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate
to the respective beneficial interests in such Global Security as shown on the
records of the Depository or its nominee. 
The Issuer also expects that payments by Agent Members to owners of
beneficial interests in such Global Security held through Agent Members will be
governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case
with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of
nominees for such customers.  Such
payments will be the responsibility of the Agent Members.  Upon final payment due on the Maturity of a
Note, the Holder thereof shall present and surrender such Note at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office of the Paying Agent (outside of
the United States if then required by applicable law in the case of a
Certificated Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Security) on or prior to such Maturity.  None of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee
or the Paying Agent will have any responsibility or liability with respect to
any records maintained by the Holder of any


 


115





















 


Note with respect
to the beneficial holders thereof or payments made thereby on account of
beneficial interests held therein.  In
the case where any final payment of principal and interest is to be made on any
Note (other than on the Stated Maturity thereof) the Issuer or, upon Issuer
Request, the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Issuer shall, not
more than thirty (30) nor fewer than five
Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is to be made, mail to
the Persons entitled thereto at their addresses appearing on the Notes
Register, a notice which shall state the date on which such payment will be
made and the amount of such payment per U.S.$400,000 initial principal amount
of Notes and shall specify the place where such Notes may be presented and
surrendered for such payment.


(r)       Subject to the
provisions of Sections 2.7(a) through (l) hereof, Holders of
Notes as of the Record Date in respect of a Payment Date shall be entitled to
the interest accrued and payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments
and principal payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments on such
Payment Date.  All such payments that are
mailed or wired and returned to the Paying Agent shall be held for payment as
herein provided at the office or agency of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer to be
maintained as provided in Section 7.2 (or returned to the Trustee).


(s)      Interest on any Note
which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Payment
Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more
predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date
for such interest.


(t)       Payments of principal to
Holders of the Notes of each Class shall be made in the proportion that the
Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Notes of such Class registered in the name
of each such Holder on such Record Date bears to the Aggregate Outstanding
Amount of all Notes of such Class on such Record Date.


(u)      Interest accrued with
respect to the Notes shall be calculated as described in the applicable form of
Note attached hereto.


(v)      All reductions in the
principal amount of a Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) effected by
payments of installments of principal made on any Payment Date, Redemption Date
or upon Maturity shall be binding upon all future Holders of such Note and of
any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange
therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note.


(w)     Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Indenture to the contrary, the obligations of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture are non-recourse obligations
of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer payable solely from the Assets (including,
solely with respect to the Class A-2 Notes, from payments received under the
Insurance Policy (which payments are available solely for the Class A-2 Notes and
not for any other Securities)) and following realization of the Assets, the
obligations of the Co-Issuers and any claims of the Noteholders, the Trustee,
any other Secured Party or any third party beneficiary of this Indenture shall
be extinguished and shall not revive thereafter.  No recourse shall be had for the payment of
any amount owing in respect of the Notes against any Officer, director,
employee, shareholder, limited partner or incorporator of the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer or any of


 


116





















 


their respective
successors or assigns for any amounts payable under the Notes or this
Indenture.  It is understood that the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not (i) prevent recourse to the
Assets for the sums due or to become due under any security, instrument or
agreement which is part of the Assets or (ii) constitute a waiver, release or
discharge of any indebtedness or obligation evidenced by the Notes or secured
by this Indenture (to the extent it relates to the obligation to make payments
on the Notes) until such Assets have been realized, whereupon any outstanding
indebtedness or obligation in respect of the Notes shall be extinguished and
shall not revive thereafter.  It is
further understood that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not
limit the right of any Person to name the Issuer or the Co-Issuer as a party
defendant in any Proceeding or in the exercise of any other remedy under the
Notes or this Indenture, so long as no judgment in the nature of a deficiency
judgment or seeking personal liability shall be asked for or (if obtained)
enforced against any such Person or entity.


(x)      Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.7, each Note delivered under this Indenture
and upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other
Note shall carry the rights of unpaid interest and principal that were carried
by such other Note.


(y)      Notwithstanding any of
the foregoing provisions with respect to payments of principal of and interest
on the Notes (but subject to Section 2.7(o)), if the Notes have become
or been declared due and payable following an Event of Default and such
acceleration of Maturity and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled and the provisions of Section 5.5 are not applicable, then
payments of principal of and interest on such Notes shall be made in accordance
with Section 5.7 hereof.


(z)      Payments in respect of
the Preferred Shares as contemplated by Sections 11.1(a)(i)(34) and 11.1(a)(ii)(16)
shall be made by the Trustee to the Preferred Shares Paying Agent.


Section 2.8             Persons
Deemed Owners.


The Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the
Trustee may treat as the owner of a Note the Person in whose name such Note is
registered on the Notes Register on the applicable Record Date for the purpose
of receiving payments of principal of and interest and other amounts on such
Note and on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever (whether or not
such Note is overdue), and none of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee nor
any agent of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by
notice to the contrary; provided,  however,
that the Depository, or its nominee, shall be deemed the owner of the Global
Securities, and owners of beneficial interests in Global Securities will not be
considered the owners of any Notes for the purpose of receiving notices.  With respect to the Preferred Shares, on any
Payment Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Preferred Shares Paying Agent
the distributions thereon for distribution to the Preferred Shareholders.


 


117

















 


Section 2.9             Cancellation.


All Notes surrendered for
payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption, or deemed lost or
stolen, shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be
delivered to the Trustee, and shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee and may
not be reissued or resold.  No Notes
shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes canceled as
provided in this Section 2.9, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture.  All canceled Notes held by
the Trustee shall be destroyed or held by the Trustee in accordance with its
standard retention policy unless the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall direct by
an Issuer Order that they be returned to them.


Section 2.10           Global
Securities; Temporary Notes.


(a)      In the event that the
Depository notifies the Issuer and the Co-Issuer that it is unwilling or unable
to continue as Depository for a Global Security or if at any time such
Depository ceases to be a “Clearing Agency” registered under the Exchange Act
and a successor depository is not appointed by the Issuer within ninety (90)
days of such notice, the Global Securities deposited with the Depository
pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall be transferred to the beneficial
owners thereof subject to the procedures and conditions set forth in this Section
2.10.


(b)      Any Global Security that
is transferable to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant to Section 2.10(a)

transfer of each portion of such Global Security, an equal aggregate principal
amount of Certificated Notes of the same Class and authorized
denominations.  Any Certificated Notes
delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Security shall, except as
otherwise provided by Section 2.5(f), bear the applicable legend set
forth in Exhibit A or B, as applicable, and shall be subject to
the transfer restrictions referred to in such applicable legend.  The Holder of each such registered individual
Global Security may transfer such Global Security by surrendering it at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at the office of the Paying Agent or
Irish Paying Agent.


(c)      Subject to the provisions
of Section 2.10(b) above, the registered Holder of a Global Security may
grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and
Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which
a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.


(d)      In the event of the
occurrence of either of the events specified in Section 2.10(a) above,
the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall promptly make available to the Trustee a
reasonable supply of Certificated Notes.

combination thereof, or in any other manner permitted by the rules and

Section 2.11           U.S.
Tax Treatment of Notes.


(a)      Each of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer intends that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Offered
Notes be treated as debt.  Each
prospective purchaser and any subsequent transferee of an Offered Note or any
interest therein shall, by virtue of its purchase or other acquisition of such
Offered Note or interest therein, be deemed to have agreed to treat such
Offered Note as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.


(b)      For U.S.
federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes, the Issuer agrees,
and each Holder of a Note or any interest therein, by virtue of its purchase or
other acquisition of such Note or interest therein, shall be deemed to have
agreed, to treat the Notes as debt and the Issuer as a Qualified REIT
Subsidiary.


(c)      If the Issuer
is treated as a foreign corporation that is not a Qualified REIT Subsidiary and
is not engaged in a United States trade or business, the Issuer shall not file,
or


 


119





















 


cause to be filed, any income or franchise tax return in the United
States or any state of the United States unless it shall have obtained advice
from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP or an opinion of other nationally
recognized U.S. tax counsel experienced in such matters prior to such filing
that, under the laws of such jurisdiction, the Issuer is required to file such
income or franchise tax return.


(d)      Each Holder of Notes
shall timely furnish to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or its agents any U.S.
federal income tax form or certification (such as IRS Form W-8BEN
(Certification of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner) (with Part III marked),
IRS Form W-8IMY (Certification of Foreign Intermediary Status), IRS Form W-9
(Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification), or IRS Form
W-8ECI (Certification of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption from Withholding
on Income Effectively Connected with Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business) or
any successors to such IRS forms that the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or its agents
may reasonably request and shall update or replace such forms or certification
in accordance with its terms or its subsequent amendments.


(e)      If the Issuer
is no longer a Qualified REIT Subsidiary and is treated as a foreign
corporation that will not be treated as engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in the case of the
Preferred Shares and any Class of Notes that is deemed equity for U.S. federal
income tax purposes by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), if the
Holder of such Security so requests, the Issuer agrees to timely provide each
Holder of such a Security with any tax information that such Holder reasonably
requires in order to comply with any applicable U.S. Federal income tax
reporting or filing requirements, including, without limitation, a PFIC Annual
Information Statement, as
described in Treasury Regulation §1.1295-1(g) (or any successor
Treasury Regulation or IRS release or notice).


(f)       If the Issuer
is no longer a Qualified REIT Subsidiary and is treated as a foreign
corporation that will not be treated as engaged in a trade or business in the
United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, in the case of the
Preferred Shares and any Class of Notes that is deemed equity for U.S. federal
income tax purposes by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), if the
Holder of such Security so requests, upon the request of any such Holder, any information that such Holder reasonably requests to assist such Holder with regard to any filing requirements such Holder may have as a result of the Issuer
being classified as a “controlled foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income
tax purposes.


Section 2.12           Authenticating
Agents.


Upon the request of the
Issuer and the Co-Issuer, the Trustee shall, and if the Trustee so chooses the
Trustee may, pursuant to this Indenture, appoint one or more Authenticating
Agents with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the
authentication of Notes in connection with issuance, transfers and exchanges
under Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 8.5 hereof, as fully to
all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been
expressly authorized by such Sections to authenticate such Notes.  For all purposes of this Indenture, the
authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section
2.12 shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes by the Trustee.


 


120

















 


Any corporation or
banking association into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or banking
association resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any
Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the
corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of
such Authenticating Agent hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent or
such successor corporation.  Any
Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer.  The Trustee may at any time terminate the
agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to
such Authenticating Agent, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation or
upon such a termination, the Trustee shall promptly appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Issuer.


The Trustee agrees to pay
to each Authenticating Agent appointed by it from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services, and reimbursement for its reasonable expenses
relating thereto and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such
payments, subject to Section 6.7 hereof. 
The provisions of Sections 2.9, 6.4 and 6.5 hereof
shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.


Section 2.13           Forced
Sale on Failure to Comply with Restrictions.


(a)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, any transfer of a Note or interest
therein to a U.S. Person who is determined not to have been both a QIB and a Qualified
Purchaser at the time of acquisition of the Note or interest therein shall be
null and void and any such proposed transfer of which the Issuer, the Co-Issuer
or the Trustee shall have notice may be disregarded by the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer and the Trustee for all purposes.


(b)      If the Issuer determines
that any Holder of a Note has not satisfied the applicable requirement
described in Section 2.13(a) above (any such person a “Non-Permitted Holder”),
then the Issuer shall promptly after discovery that such Person is a
Non-Permitted Holder by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Trustee (and notice by
the Trustee or the Co-Issuer to the Issuer, if either of them makes the
discovery), send notice to such Non-Permitted Holder demanding that such
Non-Permitted Holder transfer its interest to a Person that is not a
Non-Permitted Holder within thirty (30) days
of the date of such notice.  If such
Non-Permitted Holder fails to so transfer its Note or interest therein, the
Issuer shall have the right, without further notice to the Non-Permitted
Holder, to sell such Note or interest therein to a purchaser selected by the
Issuer that is not a Non-Permitted Holder on such terms as the Issuer may
choose.  The Issuer, or the Trustee
acting on behalf of the Issuer, may select the purchaser by soliciting one or
more bids from one or more brokers or other market professionals that regularly
deal in securities similar to the Note, and selling such Note to the highest
such bidder.  However, the Issuer or the
Trustee may select a purchaser by any other means determined by it in its sole
discretion.  The Holder of such Note, the
Non-Permitted Holder and each other Person in the chain of title from the
Holder to the Non-Permitted Holder, by its acceptance of an interest in the
Note, agrees to cooperate with the Issuer and the Trustee to effect such
transfers.  The proceeds of such sale,
net of any commissions, expenses and taxes due in connection with such sale
shall be remitted to the Non-Permitted Holder. 
The terms

and conditions of
any sale under this Section 2.13(b) shall be determined in the sole
discretion of the Issuer, and the Issuer shall not be liable to any Person
having an interest in the Note sold as a result of any such sale of exercise of
such discretion.


Section 2.14           No Gross-Up.


(a)      The Issuer
shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to the Holders or
beneficial owners of the Notes as a result of any withholding or deduction for,
or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or
governmental charges.

5.1(f), 5.1(g) or 5.1(i)), the Trustee may, and shall at the
direction of a Majority, by outstanding principal amount, of (x) in the case of
an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(j), the Controlling Class
(excluding Collateral Manager Securities), (y) in the case of an Event of
Default described in Section 5.1(a), 5.1(b) or 5.1(c), at
any time when the Class A-1 Notes and/or the Class A-2 Note Insurer or the
Class A-2 Notes are the Controlling Class, the Controlling Class (excluding

voting as a separate Class (excluding Collateral Manager Securities), declare
the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes to be
immediately due and payable (and any such acceleration shall automatically
terminate the Replenishment Period).  If
an Event of Default described in Section 5.1(f),  5.1(g) or 5.1(i)
above occurs, such an acceleration shall occur automatically and without any
further action.  If the Notes are
accelerated, payments shall be made in the order and priority set forth in Sections
11.1(a)(i) and 11.1(a)(ii) hereof.


(b)      At any time after such a
declaration of acceleration of Maturity of the Notes has been made and before a
judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the
Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article 5, a Majority of each
and every Class of Notes (voting as a separate Class), by written notice to the
Issuer and the Co-Issuer, the Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty, may rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences if:


(i)       the Issuer or the Co-Issuer has paid or
deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:


 


139





















 


(A)     all unpaid installments of
interest on and principal of the Notes, that would be due and payable hereunder
if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred;


(B)     to the extent that payment
of such interest is lawful, interest on the Class C Capitalized Interest at the
Class C Rate, interest on the Class D Capitalized Interest at the Class D Rate,
interest on the Class E Capitalized Interest at the Class E Rate, interest on
the Class F Capitalized Interest at the Class F Rate, interest on the Class G
Capitalized Interest at the Class G Rate, interest on the Class H Capitalized
Interest at the Class H Rate, interest on the Class J Capitalized Interest at
the Class J Rate and interest on the Class K Capitalized Interest at the Class

(C)     all unpaid taxes of the

or advanced by or otherwise due and payable to the Trustee hereunder;


(D)     with respect to each Hedge
Agreement, any amount then due and payable thereunder; and


(E)      with respect to the
Collateral Management Agreement, any Senior Collateral Management Fee then due
and any Company Administrative Expense due and payable to the Collateral
Manager thereunder.


(ii)      if any Hedge Agreement has been reduced or
terminated, the Rating Agency Condition has been satisfied with respect to such
reduction or termination; and


(iii)     the Trustee has determined that all Events
of Default of which it has actual knowledge, other than the non-payment of the
interest and principal on the Notes that have become due solely by such
acceleration, have been cured and a Majority of the Controlling Class, by
written notice to the Trustee and each Hedge Counterparty has agreed with such
determination (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
or waived as provided in Section 5.14.


At any such time that the
Trustee shall rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences as
permitted hereinabove, the Trustee shall preserve the Assets in accordance with
the provisions of Section 5.5 with respect to the Event of Default that
gave rise to such declaration; provided,  however,
that if such preservation of the Assets is rescinded pursuant to Section 5.5,
the Notes may be accelerated pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section
5.2, notwithstanding any previous rescission and annulment of a declaration
of acceleration pursuant to this paragraph.


No such rescission shall
affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereon.  In addition, no such rescission shall affect
any Hedge Agreement if it has been terminated in accordance with its terms.


 


140

















 


(c)      Subject to Sections
5.4 and 5.5, a Majority of the Controlling Class shall have the
right to direct the Trustee in the conduct of any proceedings for any remedy
available to the Trustee; provided that (i) such direction will not
conflict with any rule of law or this Indenture (including the limitations
described in this Section 5 but, solely in the case of proceedings
resulting from an Event of Default described in clause (j) of the definition
thereof, excluding any requirement requiring sufficient proceeds to pay in full
the amounts then due and unpaid on the Notes); (ii) the Trustee may take any
other action not inconsistent with such direction; (iii) the Trustee has been
provided with an indemnity or reasonable security satisfactory to it (and the
Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in
liability or subject it to expense unless it has received such indemnity or
security against such liability or expense); and (iv) any direction to
undertake a sale of the Assets may be made only as described in Section 5.17.  The Trustee shall provide written notice of
the receipt of such direction to each Hedge Counterparty promptly after receipt
thereof.


(d)      As security for the
payment by the Issuer of the compensation and expenses of the Trustee and any
sums the Trustee may be entitled to receive as indemnification by the Issuer,
the Issuer hereby grants the Trustee a lien on the Assets, which lien is senior
to the lien of the Noteholders.  The
Trustee’s lien shall be subject to the Priority of Payments and exercisable by
the Trustee only if the Notes have been declared due and payable following an
Event of Default and such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled.


(e)      A Majority of the
Controlling Class, may, prior to the time a judgment or decree for the payment
of money due has been obtained by the Trustee, waive any past Default on behalf
of the holders of all the Notes and its consequences in accordance with Section
5.14.


(f)       In determining whether
the holders of the requisite percentage of Notes have given any direction,
notice or consent hereunder, (i) Notes owned by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or
any Affiliate thereof shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding and
(ii) in relation to (x) any amendment or other modification of, or assignment
or termination of, any of the express rights or obligations of the Collateral
Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement or this Indenture (including
the exercise of any rights to remove the Collateral Manager or terminate the
Collateral Management Agreement or approve or object to a replacement for the
Collateral Manager except as specifically provided in the Collateral Management
Agreement with respect to the termination of the Collateral Manager without
cause and with respect to the replacement of the Collateral Manager) and (y)
the exercise by the Noteholders of their right, in connection with certain
Events of Default, to accelerate amounts due under the Notes, Collateral
Manager Securities shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding.  The Collateral Manager and its Affiliates
shall be entitled to vote Notes held by them, and by accounts managed by them,
with respect to all other matters other than those described in clause (ii)
above.

addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses,

If an Event of Default
occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect
and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate
Proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual (if no direction by a
Majority of the Controlling Class is received by the Trustee), or the Trustee
shall proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Noteholders by such Proceedings as the Trustee may be directed by Majority of
the Controlling Class, to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the


 


143

















 


specific
enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the
exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or
legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.


In case there shall be
pending Proceedings relative to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer under the
Bankruptcy Code, any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar law
enacted under the laws of the Cayman Islands, or any other applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or
trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar
official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or the
Co-Issuer, or their respective property, or in case of any other comparable Proceedings
relative to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, or the creditors or property of the
Issuer or the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, regardless of whether the principal of
any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and regardless of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3, shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:


(a)      to file and prove a claim
or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in
respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor
Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for
reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made,
by the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, except as a result of negligence
or bad faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in any Proceedings relative to the
Issuer, the Co-Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes or to the creditors or
property of the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or such other obligor;


(b)      unless prohibited by
applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of the Notes
in any election of a trustee or a standby trustee in arrangement,
reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or
Person performing similar functions in comparable Proceedings; and


(c)      to collect and receive
any Monies or other property payable to or deliverable on any such claims, and
to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the
Noteholders and of the Trustee on their behalf; and any trustee, receiver or
liquidator, custodian or other similar official is hereby authorized by each of
the Noteholders to make payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to the Noteholders, to
pay to the Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable
compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective
agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other reasonable expenses and
liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and each
predecessor Trustee except as a result of its own negligence or bad faith.


Nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder, any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any
Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of
any Noteholder in any such


 


144

















 


Proceeding except,
as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar
Person.


All rights of action and
of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the
production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any
action or Proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own
name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, shall be applied
as set forth in Section 5.7.


In any Proceedings
brought by the Trustee on behalf of the Holders, the Trustee shall be held to
represent all the Holders of the Notes.


Notwithstanding anything
in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, the Trustee may not sell or
liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings in furtherance thereof pursuant
to this Section 5.3 unless the conditions specified in Section 5.5(a)
are met.


Section 5.4             Remedies.


(a)      If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, and the Notes have been declared due and
payable and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and
annulled, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer agree that the Trustee may, after notice
to the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty, and shall, upon direction by a
Majority of the Controlling Class, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
exercise one or more of the following rights, privileges and remedies:


(i)       institute Proceedings for the collection
of all amounts then payable on the Notes or otherwise payable under this
Indenture, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained,
and collect from the Assets any Monies adjudged due;


(ii)      sell all or a portion of the Assets or
rights of interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and
conducted in any manner permitted by law and in accordance with Section 5.17
hereof;


(iii)     institute Proceedings from time to time for
the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the
Assets;


(iv)    exercise any remedies of a secured party
under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the
rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes hereunder; and


(v)     exercise any other rights and remedies that
may be available at law or in equity;


provided,  however,
that the Trustee may not sell or liquidate the Assets or institute Proceedings
in furtherance thereof pursuant to this Section 5.4 unless either of the
conditions specified in Section 5.5(a) is met.


 


145

















 


The Trustee may, but need
not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm
of national reputation with demonstrated capabilities in structuring and
distributing notes or certificates similar to the Notes as to the feasibility
of any action proposed to be taken in accordance with this Section 5.4
and as to the sufficiency of the proceeds and other amounts receivable with
respect to the Assets to make the required payments of principal of and interest
on the Notes and other amounts payable hereunder, which opinion shall be
conclusive evidence as to such feasibility or sufficiency.


(b)      If an Event of Default as
described in Section 5.1(e) hereof shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee may, and at the request of the Holders of not less than
25% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall,
institute a Proceeding solely to compel performance of the covenant or
agreement or to cure the representation or warranty, the breach of which gave
rise to the Event of Default under such Section, and enforce any equitable
decree or order arising from such Proceeding.


(c)      Upon any Sale, whether
made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings,
any Noteholder or Noteholders or Preferred Shareholder or Preferred
Shareholders or the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates may bid for and
purchase the Assets or any part thereof and, upon compliance with the terms of
Sale, may hold, retain, possess or dispose of such property in its or their own
absolute right without accountability; and any purchaser at any such Sale may,
in paying the purchase Money, turn in any of the Notes in lieu of Cash equal to
the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be
payable on the Notes so turned in by such Holder (taking into account the Class
of such Notes).  Such Notes, in case the
amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be
returned to the Holders thereof after proper notation has been made thereon to
show partial payment.


Upon any Sale, whether
made under the power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings,
the receipt of the Trustee or of the Officer making a sale under judicial
proceedings shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at
any sale for its or their purchase Money and such purchaser or purchasers shall
not be obliged to see to the application thereof.


Any such Sale, whether
under any power of sale hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings,
shall bind the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, the Noteholders and the
Preferred Shareholders, shall operate to divest all right, title and interest
whatsoever, either at law or in equity, of each of them in and to the property
sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against each of
them and their successors and assigns, and against any and all Persons claiming
through or under them.


(d)      Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture, none of the Trustee, any other Secured Party or
any third party beneficiary of this Indenture may, prior to the date which is
one year and one day, or, if longer, the applicable preference period then in
effect, after the payment in full of all Notes, institute against, or join any
other Person in instituting against, the Issuer or the Co-Issuer any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation
proceedings, or other proceedings under federal or State bankruptcy or similar
laws of any jurisdiction.  Nothing in
this Section 5.4 shall preclude, or


 


146





















 


be deemed to stop,
the Trustee (i) from taking any action prior to the expiration of the
aforementioned one year and one day (or, if longer, the applicable preference
period then in effect) period in (A) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed
or commenced by the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or (B) any involuntary insolvency
proceeding filed or commenced by a Person other than the Trustee, or (ii) from
commencing against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or any of their respective
properties any legal action which is not a bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency, moratorium or liquidation proceeding.


Section 5.5             Preservation
of Assets.


(a)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, the Trustee shall retain the
Assets securing the Notes, collect and cause the collection of the proceeds
thereof and make and apply all payments and deposits and maintain all accounts
in respect of the Assets and the Notes in accordance with the Priority of
Payments and the provisions of Articles 10, 12 and 13
unless either:


(i)       the Trustee, pursuant to Section
5.5(c), determines that the anticipated proceeds of a sale or liquidation
of the Assets (after deducting the reasonable expenses of such sale or
liquidation) would be sufficient to discharge in full the amounts then due and
unpaid on the Notes (except in the case of an Event of Default described in
clause (j) of the definition thereof as described in Section 5.2(c)),
Company Administrative Expenses due and payable pursuant to clauses (3) and
(25) of Section 11.1(a)(i) and clauses (1) and (7) of Section
11.1(a)(ii), the Senior Collateral Management Fees due and payable pursuant
to clause (4) of Section 11.1(a)(i), the Subordinate Collateral
Management Fees due and payable pursuant to clause (26) of Section
11.1(a)(i), any amounts due and unpaid to each Hedge Counterparty,
including without limitation, any payments (however described) due and payable
by the Issuer under each Hedge Agreement upon a termination of such Hedge
Agreement (including any interest that may accrue thereon), Cure Advances and interest
thereon, and amounts due and payable to the Advancing Agent and the Trustee, in
its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, in respect of unreimbursed Interest
Advances and Reimbursement Interest, and a Majority of the Controlling Class
agrees with such determination; or


(ii)      the Holders of a Majority of the Aggregate
Outstanding Amount of each Class of Notes (each voting as a separate Class)
(and each Hedge Counterparty and the Class A-2 Note Insurer, unless each shall
be paid in full the amounts due and unpaid, including, without limitation, any
payments (however described) due and payable by the Issuer under each Hedge
Agreement upon a termination of such Hedge Agreement (including any interest
that may accrue thereon)), unless it shall be paid in full the amounts due and
unpaid, direct, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the sale and
liquidation of the Assets.


The Trustee shall give
written notice of the retention of the Assets to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Class A-2 Note Insurer and the
Rating Agencies.  So long as such Event
of Default is continuing, any such retention pursuant


 


147

















 


to this Section
5.5(a) may be rescinded at any time when the conditions specified in clause
(i) or (ii) above exist.


(b)      Nothing contained in Section
5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to sell the Assets
securing the Notes if the conditions set forth in Section 5.5(a) are not
satisfied.  Nothing contained in Section
5.5(a) shall be construed to require the Trustee to preserve the Assets
securing the Notes if prohibited by applicable law.


(c)      In determining whether
the condition specified in Section 5.5(a)(i) exists, the Collateral
Manager shall obtain bid prices with respect to each Pledged Collateral Debt
Security from two dealers (Independent of the Collateral Manager and any of its
Affiliates) at the time making a market in such Pledged Collateral Debt
Securities (or, if there is only one market maker, then the Collateral Manager
shall obtain a bid price from that market maker or, if no market maker, from a
pricing service).  The Collateral Manager
shall compute the anticipated proceeds of sale or liquidation on the basis of
the lowest of such bid prices for each such Pledged Collateral Debt
Security.  For the purposes of
determining issues relating to the Market Value of the Pledged Collateral Debt
Security and the execution of a sale or other liquidation thereof, the Trustee
may, but need not, retain at the expense of the Issuer and rely on an opinion
of an Independent investment banking firm of national reputation in connection
with a determination (notwithstanding that such opinion will not be the basis
for such determination) as to whether the condition specified in Section
5.5(a)(i) exists.


The Trustee shall
promptly deliver to the Noteholders, the Class A-2 Note Insurer and each Hedge
Counterparty a report stating the results of any determination required to be
made pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(i). 
The Trustee shall make the determinations required by Section
5.5(a)(i) within thirty (30) days
after an Event of Default if requested by a Majority of the Controlling Class.


Section 5.6             Trustee
May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes.


All rights of action and
claims under this Indenture or under any of the Notes may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the
production thereof in any trial or other Proceeding relating thereto, and any
such action or Proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own
name as trustee of an express trust.  Any
recovery of judgment in respect of the Notes shall be applied as set forth in Section
5.7 hereof.


In any Proceedings
brought by the Trustee (and any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any
provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), in respect
of the Notes, the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the
Notes.


Section 5.7             Application
of Money Collected.


Any Money collected by
the Trustee with respect to the Notes pursuant to this Article 5 and any
Money that may then be held or thereafter received by the Trustee with respect
to the Notes hereunder shall be applied subject to Section 13.1 hereof
and in accordance with the Priority of Payments set forth in Section 11.1
hereof, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee.


 


148

















 


Section 5.8             Limitation
on Suits.


No Holder of any Notes
shall have any right to institute any Proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with
respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or
for any other remedy hereunder, unless:


(a)      such Holder has
previously given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default;


(b)      except as otherwise
provided in Section 5.9 hereof, the Holders of at least 25% of the then
Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of
Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder and such Holder or Holders have
offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;


(c)      the Trustee for thirty
(30) days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has
failed to institute any such Proceeding; and


(d)      no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 30-day
period by a Majority of the Controlling Class; it being understood and intended
that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner
whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes of the
same Class or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other Holders of the Notes of the same Class or to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable
benefit of all the Holders of Notes of the same Class subject to and in
accordance with Section 13.1 hereof and the Priority of Payments.


In the event the Trustee
shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or
more groups of Holders of the Controlling Class, each representing less than a
Majority of the Controlling Class, the Trustee in its sole discretion may
determine what action, if any, shall be taken, notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Indenture.


Section 5.9             Unconditional
Rights of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest.


Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Indenture (except for Sections 2.7(o) and 2.7(w)),
the Holder of any Class of Note shall have the right, which is absolute and
unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such
Class of Note as such principal, interest and other amounts become due and
payable in accordance with the Priority of Payments and Section 13.1,
and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.4(d) and Section 5.8
to institute Proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment, and such
right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder; provided,  however, that the right of such Holder to institute
proceedings for the enforcement of any such payment shall not be subject to the
25% threshold requirement set forth in Section 5.8(b).


 


149

















 


Section 5.10           Restoration
of Rights and Remedies.


If the Trustee or any
Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under
this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any
reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee, or to such Noteholder,
then and in every such case the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, and the Noteholder
shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally
and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Trustee, and the Noteholders shall continue as though no
such Proceeding had been instituted.


Section 5.11           Rights
and Remedies Cumulative.


No right or remedy herein
conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee, or to the Noteholders, is intended
to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall,
to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other
right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise.  The assertion or
employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent
the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or
remedy.


Section 5.12           Delay
or Omission Not Waiver.


No delay or omission of
the Trustee, or of any Noteholder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon
any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a
waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein or a waiver of a
subsequent Event of Default.  Every right
and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee, or to the
Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Trustee, or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.


Section 5.13           Control
by the Controlling Class.


Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Indenture, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing when any of the Notes are Outstanding, a Majority of the Controlling
Class shall have the right to cause the institution of and direct the time,
method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee for exercising any trust, right, remedy or power conferred on the
Trustee in respect of the Notes; provided  that:


(a)      such direction shall not
conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture (including, without
limitation, any provision hereof providing a limitation on the liability of the
Co-Issuers as set forth in Section 2.7(w));


(b)      the Trustee may take any
other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such
direction; provided,  however,
that, subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee need not take any action that
it determines might involve it in liability (unless the Trustee has received
satisfactory indemnity against such liability as set forth below);


(c)      the Trustee shall have
been provided with indemnity satisfactory to it; and


 


150





















 


(d)      any direction to the
Trustee to undertake a Sale of the Assets shall be by the Holders of Notes
secured thereby representing a Majority of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of
each Class of Notes.


Section 5.14           Waiver
of Past Defaults.


Prior to the time a
judgment or decree for payment of the Money due has been obtained by the
Trustee, as provided in this Article 5, a Majority of each and every
Class of Notes voting as a separate Class may on behalf of the Holders of all
the Notes waive any past Default in respect of the Notes and its consequences,
except a Default:


(a)      in the payment of
principal of any Note;


(b)      in the payment of
interest in respect of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes and any other
Class of Notes (to the extent such Class of Notes is the Controlling Class at
such time);


(c)      in respect of a covenant
or provision hereof that under Section 8.2 cannot be modified or amended
without the waiver or consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note adversely
affected thereby; or


(d)      in respect of any
covenant or provision hereof for the individual protection or benefit of the
Trustee (without the Trustee’s express written consent thereto);


provided that a Majority of the Controlling Class alone shall
have the right to waive an Event of Default described in clause (j) of the
definition thereof.


In the case of any such
waiver, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes
shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively,
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair
any right consequent thereto.  The
Trustee shall promptly give written notice of any such waiver to the Collateral
Manager, each Noteholder and each Hedge Counterparty.


Upon any such waiver,
such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom
shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereto.


Section 5.15           Undertaking
for Costs.


All parties to this
Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be
deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any
suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any
suit against the Trustee for any action taken, or omitted by it as Trustee, the
filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of
such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit,
having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made
by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.15 shall
not apply to any suit instituted by the


 


151

















 


Trustee, to any
suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the
aggregate more than 10% of the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Controlling
Class, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the
payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable
hereunder on or after the Stated Maturity (or, in the case of redemption, on or
after the applicable Redemption Date).


Section 5.16           Waiver
of Stay or Extension Laws.


Each of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will
not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or
take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted,
now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants, the
performance of or any remedies under this Indenture; and each of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not
hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though
no such law had been enacted.


Section 5.17           Sale
of Assets.


(a)      The power to effect any
sale (a “Sale”)
of any portion of the Assets pursuant to Sections 5.4 and 5.5 hereof
shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of such
Assets remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until all amounts
secured by the Assets shall have been paid or if there are insufficient
proceeds to pay such amount until the entire Assets shall have been sold.  The Trustee may upon notice to the
Securityholders and each Hedge Counterparty, and shall, upon direction of a
Majority of the Controlling Class, from time to time postpone any Sale by
public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale; provided,  however, that if the Sale is rescheduled for a date
more than three Business Days after the date of the determination by the
Trustee pursuant to Section 5.5 hereof, such Sale shall not occur unless
and until the Trustee has again made the determination required by Section
5.5 hereof.  The Trustee hereby
expressly waives its rights to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any
Sale; provided  that the
Trustee shall be authorized to deduct the reasonable costs, charges and
expenses incurred by it in connection with such Sale from the proceeds thereof
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof.


(b)      The Trustee may bid for
and acquire any portion of the Assets in connection with a public Sale thereof,
and may pay all or part of the purchase price by crediting against amounts
owing on the Notes or other amounts secured by the Assets, all or part of the
net proceeds of such Sale after deducting the reasonable costs, charges and
expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with such Sale notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 6.7 hereof. 
The Notes need not be produced in order to complete any such Sale, or in
order for the net proceeds of such Sale to be credited against amounts owing on
the Notes.  The Trustee may hold, lease,
operate, manage or otherwise deal with any property so acquired in any manner
permitted by law in accordance with this Indenture.


(c)      If any portion of the
Assets consists of securities issued without registration under the Securities
Act (“Unregistered Securities”),
the Trustee may seek an Opinion of Counsel, or, if no such Opinion of Counsel
can be obtained and with the consent of


 


152





















 


a Majority of the
Controlling Class, seek a no action position from the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any other relevant federal or State regulatory authorities,
regarding the legality of a public or private Sale of such Unregistered
Securities.  In no event shall the
Trustee be required to register Unregistered Securities under the Securities
Act.


(d)      The Trustee shall execute
and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest
in any portion of the Assets in connection with a Sale thereof.  In addition, the Trustee is hereby
irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney in fact of the Issuer to transfer
and convey its interest in any portion of the Assets in connection with a Sale
thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale.  No purchaser or transferee at such a Sale
shall be bound to ascertain the Trustee’s authority, to inquire into the
satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any
Monies.


(e)      In the event of any Sale
of the Assets pursuant to Sections 5.4 or 5.5, payments shall be
made in the order and priority set forth in Section 11.1(a)(i) and Section
11.1(a)(ii) in the same manner as if the Notes had been accelerated.


Section 5.18           Action
on the Notes.


The Trustee’s right to
seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be
affected by the seeking or obtaining of or application for any other relief
under or with respect to this Indenture. 
Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Trustee,
or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the
Trustee against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or by the levy of any execution
under such judgment upon any portion of the Assets or upon any of the assets of
the Issuer or the Co-Issuer.

THE
TRUSTEE


Section 6.1             Certain
Duties and Responsibilities.


(a)      Except during the
continuance of an Event of Default:


(i)       the Trustee undertakes to perform such
duties and only such duties as are set forth in this Indenture, and no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;
and


(ii)      in the absence of manifest error, or bad
faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Indenture; provided,  however,
that in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision
hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee
shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
substantially conform to the requirements of this Indenture and shall promptly,
but in any event within three Business Days in the case of an Officer’s
Certificate furnished by the Collateral Manager, notify the party delivering
the same if such certificate or opinion does not conform.  If a corrected form shall not have been
delivered to the Trustee within fifteen (15) days after such notice from the
Trustee, the Trustee shall so notify the Noteholders.


(b)      In case an Event of
Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall,
prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from a Majority of the Controlling
Class (or other Noteholders to the extent provided in Article 5 hereof),
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use
the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
affairs.


(c)      If, in performing its
duties under this Agreement, the Trustee is required to decide between
alternative courses of action, the Trustee may request written instructions
from the Collateral Manager as to courses of action desired by it.  If the Trustee does not receive such
instructions within two (2) Business Days after it has requested them, it may,
but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action.  The Trustee shall act in accordance with
instructions received after such two-Business Day period except to the extent
it has already taken, or committed itself to take, action inconsistent with
such instructions.  The Trustee shall be
entitled to rely on the advice of legal counsel and Independent accountants in
performing its duties hereunder and be deemed to have acted in good faith if it
acts in accordance with such advice.


 


154





















 


(d)      No provision of this
Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful
misconduct, except that:


(i)       this subsection shall not be construed to
limit the effect of subsection (a) of this Section 6.1;


(ii)      the Trustee shall not be liable for any
error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it shall be
proven that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;


(iii)     the Trustee shall not be liable with
respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the direction of the Issuer in accordance with this Indenture
and/or the Controlling Class relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee in respect of
any Note or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this
Indenture;


(iv)    no provision of this Indenture shall require
the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it (if
the amount of such funds or risk or liability does not exceed the amount
payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i)(3) and Section
11.1(a)(ii)(1) net of the amounts specified in Section 6.7(a)(i),
the Trustee shall be deemed to be reasonably assured of such repayment) unless
such risk or liability relates to its ordinary services under this Indenture,
except where this Indenture provides otherwise; and


(v)     the Trustee shall not be liable to the Noteholders
for any action taken or omitted by it at the direction of the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager, the Controlling Class and/or a Noteholder
under circumstances in which such direction is required or permitted by the
terms of this Indenture.


(e)      For all purposes under
this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of
any Event of Default described in Sections 5.1(d), 5.1(f), 5.1(g),
5.1(h) or 5.1(i) or any Default described in Section 5.1(e)
unless a Trust Officer assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office
has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in
fact such an Event of Default or Default is received by the Trustee at the
Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references, as applicable, the Notes
generally, the Issuer, the Assets or this Indenture.  For purposes of determining the Trustee’s
responsibility and liability hereunder, whenever reference is made in this
Indenture to such an Event of Default or a Default, such reference shall be
construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or Default of which the
Trustee is deemed to have notice as described in this Section 6.1.


 


155





















 


(f)       Whether or not therein
expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the
conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(a), 6.1(b), 6.1(c),
6.1(d) and 6.1(e).


(g)      The Trustee shall, upon
reasonable prior written notice to the Trustee, permit the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager or the Rating Agencies, during the Trustee’s
normal business hours, to examine all books of account, records, reports and
other papers of the Trustee relating to the Notes, to make copies and extracts
therefrom (the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in making any such
copies or extracts to be reimbursed to the Trustee by such Person) and to
discuss the Trustee’s actions, as such actions relate to the Trustee’s duties
with respect to the Notes, with the Trustee’s officers and employees
responsible for carrying out the Trustee’s duties with respect to the Notes.


(h)      The Trustee shall
promptly notify the Class A-2 Note Insurer of either of the following of which
an officer of the Trustee has received written notice:  (i) the commencement of any Issuer Insolvency
Proceeding or (ii) the making of any claim in connection with an Issuer
Insolvency Proceeding seeking the avoidance (an “Avoidance Claim”) of
any payment of principal of or interest on, the Class A-2 Notes.  The Trustee, on its own behalf and on behalf
of the Class A-2 Noteholders, hereby appoints the Class A-2 Note Insurer as
agent and attorney-in-fact for the Trustee and each such holder in any Issuer
Insolvency Proceeding with respect to such Class A-2 Notes; provided,
that the Class A-2 Note Insurer will have no right to exercise such powers as
agent or attorney-in-fact if a Surety Event has occurred and is continuing
unless and until such Surety Event is cured. 
The Trustee on behalf of the Class A-2 Noteholders, hereby agrees that,
unless a Surety Event has occurred and is continuing, the Class A-2 Note
Insurer may at any time during the continuation of any Issuer Insolvency
Proceeding direct all matters relating to such Issuer Insolvency Proceeding (on
behalf of the Class A-2 Noteholders only), including, without limitation, (x)
all matters relating to any Avoidance Claim, (y) the direction of any appeal of
any order relating to any Avoidance Claim at the expense of the Class A-2 Note
Insurer but subject to reimbursement as provided in the Insurance Policy and
(z) the positing of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any
such appeal.  In addition, and without
limitation to the foregoing, the Class A-2 Note Insurer will be subrogated to,
and the Class A-2 Noteholders shall assign to the Class A-2 Note Insurer as
agent and attorney-in-fact, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights
of the Class A-2 Noteholders in any Issuer Insolvency Proceeding that they may
have in directing the Trustee or otherwise acting in accordance with the terms
of this Indenture, including, without limitation, any rights of any party to an
adversary proceeding or action with respect to any court order issued in
connection with any such Issuer Insolvency Proceeding; provided, that
the Class A-2 Note Insurer will have no right to exercise such powers as agent
or attorney-in-fact if a Surety Event has occurred and is continuing.


Section 6.2             Notice
of Default.


Promptly (and in no event
later than three Business Days) after the occurrence of any Default known to
the Trustee or after any declaration of acceleration has been made or delivered
to the Trustee pursuant to Section 5.2, the Trustee shall transmit by
mail to the Collateral Manager, the Irish Paying Agent (for so long as any Notes
are listed on the Irish Stock


 


156

















 


Exchange), each
Hedge Counterparty, each Rating Agency (for so long as any Class of Notes is
Outstanding and rated by such Rating Agency) and to all Holders of Notes as
their names and addresses appear on the Notes Register, notice of all Defaults
hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or
waived.

(e)      the Trustee shall be
under no obligation to exercise or to honor any of the rights or powers vested

(j)       the Trustee shall not be

The Trustee, the Paying
Agent, the Notes Registrar or any other agent of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer,
in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of

on Eligible Investments.


Section 6.7             Compensation
and Reimbursement.


(a)      The Issuer agrees:


(i)       to pay the Trustee on each Payment Date
in accordance with the Priority of Payments reasonable compensation for all
services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by
any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust);


(ii)      except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, to reimburse the Trustee (subject to any written agreement between the
Issuer and the Trustee) in a timely manner upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances (except as otherwise provided herein with
respect to Interest Advances) incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance
with any provision of this Indenture (including securities transaction charges
to the extent not waived due to the Trustee’s receipt of payments from a
financial institution with respect to certain Eligible Investments, as
specified by the Collateral Manager and the reasonable compensation and
expenses and disbursements of its agents and legal counsel and of any
accounting firm or investment banking firm employed by the Trustee pursuant to Section

willful misconduct or bad faith);


(iii)     to indemnify the Trustee and its Officers,
directors, employees and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any
loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence, willful misconduct or
bad faith on their part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending
themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder; and


(iv)    to pay the Trustee reasonable additional
compensation together with its expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) for
any collection action taken pursuant to Section 6.13 hereof.


 


159





















 


(b)      The Issuer may remit
payment for such fees and expenses to the Trustee or, in the absence thereof,
the Trustee may from time to time deduct payment of its fees and expenses
hereunder from Monies on deposit in the Payment Account in accordance with the
Priority of Payments.


(c)      The Trustee in its
capacity as Trustee, Paying Agent, Calculation Agent, Transfer Agent, Custodial
Securities Intermediary, Backup Advancing Agent and Notes Registrar, hereby
agrees not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer
or the Co-Issuer until at least one year and one day or, if longer, the
applicable preference period then in effect after the payment in full of all
Notes issued under this Indenture.  This
provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.


(d)      The Trustee agrees that
the payment of all amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to Subsections
6.7(a)(i), (a)(ii), (a)(iii) and (a)(iv) shall be
subject to the Priority of Payments, shall be payable only to the extent funds
are available in accordance with such Priority of Payments, shall be payable
solely from the Assets and following realization of the Assets, any such claims
of the Trustee against the Issuer, and all obligations of the Issuer, shall be
extinguished and shall not revive thereafter. 
The Trustee will have a lien upon the Assets to secure the payment of
such payments to it in accordance with the Priority of Payments; provided  that the Trustee shall not institute any proceeding for
enforcement of such lien except in connection with an action taken pursuant to Section
5.3 hereof for enforcement of the lien of this Indenture for the benefit of
the Noteholders.


Fees shall be accrued on
the actual number of days in the related Interest Accrual Period.  The Trustee shall receive amounts pursuant to
this Section 6.7 and Sections 11.1(a)(i) and (ii) only to
the extent that such payment is made in accordance with the Priority of
Payments and the failure to pay such amounts to the Trustee will not, by
itself, constitute an Event of Default. 
Subject to Section 6.9, the Trustee shall continue to serve as
Trustee under this Indenture notwithstanding the fact that the Trustee shall
not have received amounts due to it hereunder. 
No direction by a Majority of the Controlling Class shall affect the
right of the Trustee to collect amounts owed to it under this Indenture.


If on any Payment Date
when any amount shall be payable to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture is
not paid because there are insufficient funds available for the payment
thereof, all or any portion of such amount not so paid shall be deferred and
payable on any later Payment Date on which a fee shall be payable and
sufficient funds are available therefor in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.


Section 6.8             Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility.


There shall at all times
be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State

a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$200,000,000, subject to
supervision or examination by federal or State authority, having a rating of at
least “A2” by Moody’s, a rating of at least “A” by Fitch and a long-term senior

“A-1” by S&P and having an office within the United States.  If such corporation publishes


 


160

















 


reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section
6.8, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed
to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report
of condition so published.  If at any
time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 6.8, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with
the effect hereinafter specified in this Article 6.


Section 6.9             Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor.


(a)      No resignation or removal
of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article
6 shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor Trustee under Section 6.10.


(b)      The Trustee may resign at
any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders and each Rating
Agency.  Upon receiving such notice of
resignation, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor
trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an
Authorized Officer of the Issuer and an Authorized Officer of the Co-Issuer,
one copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee so resigning and one copy
to the successor Trustee or Trustees, together with a copy to each Noteholder,
each Hedge Counterparty and the Collateral Manager; provided  that such successor Trustee shall be appointed only upon
the written consent of a Majority of the Notes (or if there are no Notes
Outstanding, a Majority of the Preferred Shares) or, at any time when an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor Trustee
has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a Majority of the
Controlling Class.  If no successor
Trustee shall have been appointed and an instrument of acceptance by a
successor Trustee shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee, the Controlling Class of
Notes or any Holder of a Note, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment
of a successor Trustee.


(c)      The Trustee is subject to
removal by act of a Majority of the Holders of the Notes (or if there are no
Notes Outstanding, a Majority of the Preferred Shares) or, at any time when an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or when a successor
Trustee has been appointed pursuant to Section 6.10, by Act of a
Majority of the Controlling Class, upon written notice delivered to the Trustee
and to the Issuer and the Co-Issuer.


(d)      If at any time:


(i)       the Trustee shall cease to be eligible
under Section 6.8 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, or by any Holder; or


(ii)      the Trustee shall become incapable of
acting or there shall be instituted any proceeding pursuant to which it could
be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee
or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge
or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;


 


161





















 


then, in any such case
(subject to Section 6.9(a)), (a) the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, by Issuer
Order, subject to the written consent of each Hedge Counterparty, may remove
the Trustee or (b) subject to Section 5.15, a Majority of the
Controlling Class or any Holder may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.


(e)      If the Trustee shall resign,
be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the
office of the Trustee for any reason, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, by Issuer
Order, subject to the written consent of each Hedge Counterparty and the
Collateral Manager, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee.  If the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall fail to
appoint a successor Trustee within sixty (60) days after such resignation,
removal or incapability or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee
may be appointed by Act of a Majority of the Controlling Class delivered to the
Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the retiring Trustee.  The successor Trustee so appointed shall,
forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee
and supersede any successor Trustee proposed by the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer.  If no successor Trustee shall
have been so appointed by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer or a Majority of the
Controlling Class and shall have accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter
provided, subject to Section 5.15, each Hedge Counterparty, the
Controlling Class or any Holder may, on behalf of itself or himself and all
others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Trustee.


(f)       The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the
Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee by mailing written notice
of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Rating Agency, each
Hedge Counterparty, the Preferred Shares Paying Agent and to the Holders of the
Notes as their names and addresses appear in the Notes Register.  Each notice shall include the name of the
successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.  If the Issuer or the Co-Issuer fail to mail
such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor
Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be given at the expense
of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be.


Section 6.10           Acceptance
of Appointment by Successor.


Every successor Trustee
appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, each Hedge Counterparty, the Collateral Manager and the retiring
Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment.  Upon delivery of the required instruments,
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and
such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of
the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Issuer and the Co-Issuer or a
Majority of the Controlling Class or the Collateral Manager or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges then unpaid,
execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all
the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and Money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its lien, if any,
provided for in Section 6.7(d). 
Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Issuer and


 


162

















 


the Co-Issuer
shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.


No successor Trustee
shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor shall be qualified and eligible under this Article 6 and (a)
such successor shall have long term debt rated within the four (4) highest
rating categories by each Rating Agency, and (b) each Rating Agency has
confirmed in writing that the employment of such successor would not adversely
affect the rating on the Notes.


Section 6.11           Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee.


Any corporation or
banking association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or banking association
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of
the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the
Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise
qualified and eligible under this Article 6, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties
hereto.  In case any of the Notes have
been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any
successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee
may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the
same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.


Section 6.12           Co-Trustees
and Separate Trustee.


At any time or times,
including for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of any jurisdiction
in which any part of the Assets may at the time be located, the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer and the Trustee shall have power to appoint, one or more Persons to
act as co-trustee jointly with the Trustee of all or any part of the Assets,
with the power to file such proofs of claim and take such other actions
pursuant to Section 5.6 herein and to make such claims and enforce such
rights of action on behalf of the Holders of the Notes as such Holders
themselves may have the right to do, subject to the other provisions of this Section
6.12.


Each of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer shall join with the Trustee in the execution, delivery and
performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint a
co-trustee.  If the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer do not both join in such appointment within fifteen (15) days after
the receipt by them of a request to do so, the Trustee shall have power to make
such appointment.


Should any written
instrument from the Issuer or the Co-Issuer be required by any co-trustee, so
appointed, more fully confirming to such co-trustee such property, title, right
or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed,
acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may
be.  The Issuer agrees to pay (but only
from and to the extent of the Assets) to the extent funds are available
therefor under subclauses (3) and (25) of Section 11.1(a)(i), for any
reasonable fees and expenses in connection with such appointment.


 


163














Every co-trustee, shall,
to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject
to the following terms:


(a)      the Notes shall be
authenticated and delivered and all rights, powers, duties and obligations
hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, Cash and other personal
property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustee
hereunder, shall be exercised solely by the Trustee;


(b)      the rights, powers,
duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Trustee in respect
of any property covered by the appointment of a co-trustee shall be conferred
or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or by the Trustee and
such co-trustee jointly in the case of the appointment of a co-trustee as shall
be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee, except to the extent
that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be
performed, the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act,
in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised
and performed by a co-trustee;


(c)      the Trustee at any time,
by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Issuer
and the Co-Issuer evidenced by an Issuer Order, may accept the resignation of
or remove any co-trustee appointed under this Section 6.12, and in case
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall have the
power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee without the
concurrence of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer. 
A successor to any co-trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in
the manner provided in this Section 6.12;


(d)      no co-trustee hereunder
shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Trustee hereunder;


(e)      the Trustee shall not be
liable by reason of any act or omission of a co-trustee; and


(f)       any Act of
Securityholders delivered to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered
to each co-trustee.


Section 6.13           Certain
Duties of Trustee Related to Delayed Payment of Proceeds.


In the event that in any
month the Trustee shall not have received a Scheduled Distribution, (a) the
Trustee shall promptly notify the Issuer and the Collateral Manager in writing
and (b) unless within three Business Days (or the end of the applicable grace
period for such payment, if longer) after such notice such payment shall have
been received by the Trustee, or the Issuer, in its absolute discretion (but
only to the extent permitted by Section 10.2(a)), shall have made
provision for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with Section
10.2(a), the Trustee shall request the obligor of such Pledged Obligation,
the trustee under the related Underlying Instrument or paying agent designated
by either of them, as the case may be, to make such payment as soon as
practicable after such request but in no event later than three Business Days
after the date of such request.  In the
event that such payment is not made within such time period, the Trustee,
subject to the provisions of clause (iv) of Section 6.1(d), shall take
such action as the Collateral Manager reasonably shall direct in writing.  Any such action shall


 


164

















 


be without
prejudice to any right to claim a Default or Event of Default under this
Indenture.  In the event that the Issuer
or the Collateral Manager requests a release of a Pledged Obligation in
connection with any such action under the Collateral Management Agreement, such
release shall be subject to Section 10.10 and Article 12 of this
Indenture, as the case may be. 
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Trustee shall deliver to
the Issuer or its designee any payment with respect to any Pledged Obligation
received after the Due Date thereof to the extent the Issuer previously made
provisions for such payment satisfactory to the Trustee in accordance with this
Section 6.13 and such payment shall not be deemed part of the Assets.


Section 6.14           Representations
and Warranties of the Trustee.


The Trustee represents
and warrants that:


(a)      the Trustee is a national
banking association with trust powers, duly and validly existing under the laws
of the United States of America, with corporate power and authority to execute,
deliver and perform its obligations under this Indenture, and is duly eligible
and qualified to act as trustee under this Indenture;


(b)      this Indenture has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee and constitutes the
valid and binding obligation of the Trustee, enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms except (i) as limited by bankruptcy, fraudulent
conveyance, fraudulent transfer, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation,
receivership, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (ii)
that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of
equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and to the discretion of
the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;


(c)      neither the execution or
delivery by the Trustee of this Indenture nor the performance by the Trustee of
its obligations under this Indenture requires the consent or approval of, the
giving of notice to or the registration or filing with, any governmental
authority or agency under any existing law of the United States of America
governing the banking or trust powers of the Trustee;


(d)      neither the execution,
delivery and performance of this Indenture, nor the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Indenture, (i) is prohibited by, or requires
the Trustee to obtain any consent, authorization, approval or registration
under, any law, statute, rule, regulation, or any judgment, order, writ,
injunction or decree that is binding upon the Trustee or any of its properties
or assets, (ii) will violate the provisions of the Governing Documents of the
Trustee or (iii) will violate any provision of, result in any default or
acceleration of any obligations under, result in the creation or imposition of
any lien pursuant to, or require any consent under, any material agreement to
which the Trustee is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound,
the violation of which would have a material adverse effect on the Trustee or
its property; and


(e)      there are no proceedings
pending or, to the best knowledge of the Trustee, threatened against the
Trustee before any Federal, state or other governmental agency,


 


165





















 


authority,
administrator or regulatory body, arbitrator, court or other tribunal, foreign
or domestic, which could have a material adverse effect on the Pledged
Obligations or the performance by the Trustee of its obligations under this
Indenture.


Section 6.15           Requests
for Consents.


In the event that the
Trustee receives written notice of any proposed amendment, consent or waiver
under the Underlying Instruments of any Collateral Debt Security (before or
after any default) or in the event any action is required to be taken in
respect to an Underlying Instrument, the Trustee shall promptly contact the
Issuer and the Collateral Manager.  The
Collateral Manager may, on behalf of the Issuer, instruct the Trustee pursuant
to an Issuer Order to, and the Trustee shall, with respect to which a
Collateral Debt Security as to which a consent or waiver under the Underlying
Instruments of such Collateral Debt Security (before or after any default) has
been proposed or with respect to action required to be taken in respect of an
Underlying Instrument, give consent, grant a waiver, vote or exercise any or
all other rights or remedies with respect to any such Collateral Debt Security
in accordance with such Issuer Order.  In
the absence of any instruction from the Collateral Manager, the Trustee shall
not engage in any vote or take any action with respect to such a Collateral
Debt Security.


Section 6.16           Withholding.


If
any amount is required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to any
Noteholder, such amount shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such
Noteholder.  The Trustee is hereby
authorized to withhold or deduct from amounts otherwise distributable to any
Noteholder sufficient funds for the payment of any tax that is legally required
to be withheld or deducted (but such authorization shall not prevent the
Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and legally
withholding payment of such tax, pending the outcome of such proceedings).  The amount of any withholding tax imposed
with respect to any Noteholder shall be treated as Cash distributed to such
Noteholder at the time it is deducted or withheld by the Issuer or the Trustee,
as applicable, and remitted to the appropriate taxing authority.  If there is a possibility that withholding
tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Trustee may in its sole
discretion withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section 6.16.  If any Noteholder wishes to apply for a
refund of any such withholding tax, the Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with
such Noteholder in making such claim so long as such Noteholder agrees to
reimburse the Trustee for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee
has no obligation to calculate any withholding amount.

COVENANTS


Section 7.1             Payment
of Principal and Interest.


The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall duly and punctually pay the principal of and interest on each
Class of Notes in accordance with the terms of such Notes and this
Indenture.  Amounts properly withheld
under the Code or other applicable law by any Person from a payment to any
Noteholder of interest and/or principal shall be considered as having been
paid, by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, and, with respect to the Preferred
Shares, by the Issuer, to such Preferred Shareholder for all purposes of this
Indenture.


The Trustee shall, unless
prevented from doing so for reasons beyond its reasonable control, give notice
to each Securityholder of any such withholding requirement no later than ten
days prior to the related Payment Date from which amounts are required (as
directed by the Issuer or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) to be
withheld; provided  that despite
the failure of the Trustee to give such notice amounts withheld pursuant to
applicable tax laws shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer, as provided above.


Section 7.2             Maintenance
of Office or Agency.


The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer hereby appoint the Trustee as a Paying Agent for the payment of
principal of and interest on the Notes and where Notes may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange and the Issuer and the Co-Issuer hereby
appoint the Trustee, as their agent where notices and demands to or upon the
Co-Issuer in respect of the Notes or this Indenture, or the Issuer in respect
of the Notes or this Indenture, may be served.


The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer hereby appoint the Irish Paying Agent as a Paying Agent for the
payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and to act as their agent
where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer or the Co-Issuer in respect of
the Notes or this Indenture may be served and where Notes may be surrendered
for registration of transfer or exchange.


The Issuer or the
Co-Issuer may at any time and from time to time vary or terminate the
appointment of any such agent or appoint any additional agents for any or all
of such purposes; provided,  however,
that the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, will maintain in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where notices and
demands to or upon the Issuer and the Co-Issuer in respect of the Notes and
this Indenture may be served, and, subject to any laws or regulations
applicable thereto, an office or agency outside of the United States where
Notes may be presented and surrendered for payment; provided,  further, that no paying agent shall be appointed in
a jurisdiction which subjects payments on the Notes to withholding tax.  The Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may
be, shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee, each Rating Agency and the
Noteholders of the appointment or


 


167

















 


termination of any
such agent and of the location and any change in the location of any such
office or agency.


If at any time the Issuer
and the Co-Issuer, if applicable, shall fail to maintain any such required
office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or outside
the United States, or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address
thereof, presentations and surrenders may be made (subject to the limitations
described in the preceding paragraph) at and notices and demands may be served
on the Issuer and the Co-Issuer, and Notes may be presented and surrendered for
payment to the appropriate Paying Agent at its main office and the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer hereby appoint the same as their agent to receive such respective
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.


Section 7.3             Money
for Note Payments to be Held in Trust.


All payments of amounts
due and payable with respect to any Notes that are to be made from amounts
withdrawn from the Payment Account shall be made on behalf of the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer by the Trustee or a Paying Agent (in each case, from and to the
extent of available funds in the Payment Account and subject to the Priority of
Payments) with respect to payments on the Notes.


When the Paying Agent is
not also the Notes Registrar, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall furnish, or
cause the Notes Registrar to furnish, no later than the fifth calendar day
after each Record Date a list, if necessary, in such form as such Paying Agent
may reasonably request, of the names and addresses of the Holders of Notes and
of the certificate numbers of individual Notes held by each such Holder.


Whenever the Paying Agent
is not also the Trustee, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, and such Paying Agent
shall, on or before the Business Day next preceding each Payment Date or
Redemption Date, as the case may be, direct the Trustee to deposit on such
Payment Date with such Paying Agent, if necessary, an aggregate sum sufficient
to pay the amounts then becoming due pursuant to the terms of this Indenture
(to the extent funds are then available for such purpose in the Payment
Account, and subject to the Priority of Payments), such sum to be held for the
benefit of the Persons entitled thereto and (unless such Paying Agent is the
Trustee) the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of its
action or failure so to act.  Any Monies
deposited with a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) in excess of an amount
sufficient to pay the amounts then becoming due on the Notes with respect to
which such deposit was made shall be paid over by such Paying Agent to the
Trustee for application in accordance with Article 11.  Any such Paying Agent shall be deemed to
agree by assuming such role not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy
against the Issuer or the Co-Issuer for the non-payment to the Paying Agent of
any amounts payable thereto until at least one year and one day or, if longer,
the applicable preference period then in effect after the payment in full of
all Notes issued under this Indenture.


The initial Paying Agent
shall be as set forth in Section 7.2. 
Any additional or successor Paying Agents shall be appointed by Issuer
Order of the Issuer and Issuer Order of the Co-Issuer with written notice thereof
to the Trustee; provided,  however,
that so long as any Class of the Notes are rated by a Rating Agency and with
respect to any additional or successor Paying


 


168

















 


Agent for the
Notes, either (i) such Paying Agent has a long-term debt rating of “Aa3” or
higher by Moody’s, “AA-”or higher by Fitch and “AA-” or higher by S&P or a
short-term debt rating of “P-1” by Moody’s, “F1+” by Fitch and “A1+” by S&P
or (ii) each Rating Agency confirms that employing such Paying Agent shall not
adversely affect the then-current ratings of the Notes.  In the event that such successor Paying Agent
ceases to have a long-term debt rating of “Aa3” or higher by Moody’s, “AA-”or
higher by Fitch or “AA-” or higher by S&P or a short-term debt rating of at
least “P-1” by Moody’s, “F1+” by Fitch and “A-1+” by S&P, the Issuer and
the Co-Issuer shall promptly remove such Paying Agent and appoint a successor
Paying Agent.  The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall not appoint any Paying Agent that is not, at the time of such
appointment, a depository institution or trust company subject to supervision
and examination by federal and/or state and/or national banking
authorities.  The Issuer and the Co-Issuer
shall cause the Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to
the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustee (and if the Trustee acts as Paying Agent, it hereby so agrees), subject
to the provisions of this Section 7.3, that such Paying Agent will:


(a)      allocate all sums
received for payment to the Holders of Notes for which it acts as Paying Agent
on each Payment Date and Redemption Date among such Holders in the proportion
specified in the applicable report or Redemption Date Statement, as the case
may be, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law;


(b)      hold all sums held by it
for the payment of amounts due with respect to the Notes for the benefit of the
Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise
disposed of as herein provided and pay such sums to such Persons as herein
provided;


(c)      if such Paying Agent is
not the Trustee, immediately resign as a Paying Agent and forthwith pay to the
Trustee all sums held by it for the payment of Notes if at any time it ceases
to meet the standards set forth above required to be met by a Paying Agent at
the time of its appointment;


(d)      if such Paying Agent is
not the Trustee, immediately give the Trustee notice of any Default by the
Issuer or the Co-Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of
any payment required to be made; and


(e)      if such Paying Agent is
not the Trustee at any time during the continuance of any such Default, upon
the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so
held by such Paying Agent.


The Issuer or the
Co-Issuer may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Issuer Order
direct the Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held by the Issuer or
the Co-Issuer or held by the Paying Agent for payment of the Notes, such sums
to be held by the Trustee in trust for the same Noteholders as those upon which
such sums were held by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer or the Paying Agent; and, upon
such payment by the Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Paying Agent shall be
released from all further liability with respect to such Money.


 


169

















 


Except as otherwise
required by applicable law, any Money deposited with the Trustee in trust or
deposited with the Paying Agent for the payment of the principal of or interest
on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two (2) years after such principal or
interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer; and the Holder
of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to
the Issuer for payment of such amounts and all liability of the Trustee or the
Paying Agent with respect to such Money (but only to the extent of the amounts
so paid to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as applicable) shall thereupon cease; provided,  however, that the Irish Paying Agent, before being
required to make any such payment, shall at the expense of the Issuer cause to
be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language,
customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in
Dublin, Ireland, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a
date specified therein, which shall not be less than thirty (30) days from the
date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining
shall be repaid to the Issuer.  The
Trustee or the Paying Agent, before being required to make any such release of
payment, may, but shall not be required to, adopt and employ, at the expense of
the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, as the case may be, any reasonable means of
notification of such release of payment, including, but not limited to, mailing
notice of such release to Holders whose Notes have been called but have not
been surrendered for redemption or whose right to or interest in Monies due and
payable but not claimed is determinable from the records of the Paying Agent,
at the last address of record of each such Holder.


Section 7.4             Existence
of the Issuer and Co-Issuer.


(a)      So long as any Note is
outstanding, the Issuer shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, maintain
in full force and effect its existence and rights as an exempted company
incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands and
shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign limited
liability company in each jurisdiction in which such qualifications are or
shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this
Indenture, the Notes or any of the Assets; provided  that
the Issuer shall be entitled to change its jurisdiction of registration from
the Cayman Islands to any other jurisdiction reasonably selected by the Issuer
so long as (i) such change is not disadvantageous in any material respect to
the Holders of the Notes or the Preferred Shares, (ii) written notice of such
change shall have been given by the Trustee to the Holders of the Notes or
Preferred Shares, the Preferred Shares Paying Agent and each Rating Agency
fifteen (15) Business Days prior to such change, (iii) on or prior to the
fifteenth (15th) Business Day following such notice the Trustee
shall not have received written notice from a Majority of the Controlling Class
or a Majority of the Preferred Shares objecting to such change and (iv) the
Issuer prepares, creates and delivers any documents necessary to maintain the
perfection of a first-priority security interest under this Indenture.  So long as any Note is outstanding, the
Issuer shall maintain at all times at least one director who is Independent of
the Collateral Manager and its Affiliates.


(b)      So long as any Note is
outstanding, the Co-Issuer shall maintain in full force and effect its
existence and rights as a limited liability company organized under the laws of
Delaware and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a
foreign limited liability company in each jurisdiction in which such
qualifications are or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Indenture or the Notes; provided,


 


170





















 


however, that the Co-Issuer shall be entitled to
change its jurisdiction of formation from Delaware to any other jurisdiction
reasonably selected by the Co-Issuer so long as (i) such change is not
disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes, (ii)
written notice of such change shall have been given by the Trustee to the
Holders of the Notes and each Rating Agency fifteen (15) Business Days prior to
such change, (iii) on or prior to the 15th Business Day following such notice
the Trustee shall not have received written notice from a Majority of the
Controlling Class objecting to such change and (iv) the Issuer prepares,
creates and delivers any documents necessary to maintain the perfection of a
first-priority security interest under this Indenture.  So long as any Note is outstanding, the

of the Collateral Manager and its Affiliates.


(c)      So long as any Note is
outstanding, the Issuer shall ensure that all corporate or other formalities
regarding its existence are followed (including correcting any known
misunderstanding regarding its separate existence).  So long as any Note is outstanding, the
Issuer shall not take any action or conduct its affairs in a manner that is
likely to result in its separate existence being ignored (other than the Issuer
being treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary for income tax purposes) or its
assets and liabilities being substantively consolidated with any other Person
in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other insolvency proceeding.  So long as any Note is outstanding, the
Issuer shall maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures
reasonably necessary in the performance of the Issuer’s obligations hereunder,
and the Issuer shall at all times keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and
maintained, separate books, records, accounts and other information customarily

fairly and reasonably allocate and pay any overhead for shared office space
utilized, if any, and shall at all times hold itself out to the public and all
other Persons as a legal entity separate from its equity holders and any other
Person.  Without limiting the foregoing,
so long as any Note is outstanding, (i) the Issuer shall (A) pay its own
liabilities only out of its own funds and (B) use separate stationery, invoices
and checks, (ii) the Issuer shall not have any subsidiaries, and (iii) the
Issuer shall not (A) have any employees, (B) engage in any transaction with any
shareholder that is not permitted under the terms of the Collateral Management
Agreement, (C) pay dividends other than in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture, (D) conduct business under an assumed name (i.e. no DBAs) or (E)
commingle its funds or other assets with those of any other Person, except as
contemplated by this Indenture; provided that the foregoing shall not
prohibit the Issuer from entering into the transactions contemplated by the
Company Administration Agreement with the Company Administrator and the
Preferred Shares Paying Agency Agreement with the Share Registrar.


(d)      So long as any Note is
outstanding, the Co-Issuer shall ensure that all limited liability company or
other formalities regarding its existence are followed (including correcting
any known misunderstanding regarding its separate existence).  The Co-Issuer shall not take any action or
conduct its affairs in a manner, that is likely to result in its separate
existence being ignored or its assets and liabilities being substantively
consolidated with any other Person in a bankruptcy, reorganization or other
insolvency proceeding.  The Co-Issuer
shall maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures reasonably
necessary in the performance of the Co-Issuer’s obligations hereunder, and the
Co-Issuer shall at all times keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and
maintained, books, records, accounts and other


 


171





















 


information
customarily maintained for the performance of the Co- Issuer’s obligations
hereunder, shall fairly and reasonably allocate and pay any overhead for shared
office space utilized, if any, and shall at all times hold itself out to the
public and all other Persons as a legal entity separate from its equity holders
and any other Person.  Without limiting
the foregoing, (i) the Co-Issuer shall not have any subsidiaries, and (ii) the
Co-Issuer shall not (A) have any employees (other than its managers), (B) join
in any transaction with any member that is not permitted under the terms of the
Collateral Management Agreement, (C) pay dividends other than in accordance
with the terms of this Indenture, (D) conduct business under an assumed name
(i.e. no DBAs) or (E) commingle its funds or other assets with those of any
other Person, except as contemplated by this Indenture.


Section 7.5             Protection
of Assets.


(a)      The Trustee, on behalf of
the Issuer, pursuant to any Opinion of Counsel received pursuant to Section
7.5(d) shall execute and deliver all such Financing Statements,
continuation statements, instruments of further assurance and other
instruments, and shall take such other action as may be necessary or advisable
or desirable to secure the rights and remedies of the Holders, the Class A-2
Note Insurer and each Hedge Counterparty hereunder and to:


(i)       Grant more effectively all or any portion
of the Assets;


(ii)      maintain or preserve the lien (and the priority

beneficial owner
or a prospective purchaser designated by such holder or beneficial owner, as the

Section 7.14           Calculation
Agent.


(a)      The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer hereby agree that for so long as any Notes remain Outstanding there
shall at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR in respect of each
Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the terms of Schedule G
hereto (the “Calculation Agent”).  The Issuer and the Co-Issuer have initially
appointed the Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR
for each Interest Accrual Period.  The
Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer at any
time.  The Calculation Agent may resign
at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer, the
Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders and each Rating
Agency.  If the Calculation Agent is
unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer in respect of any Interest Accrual Period, or if the Calculation
Agent fails to determine LIBOR or the Interest Distribution Amount for any
Class of Notes for any Interest Accrual Period, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer
shall, with the prior written consent of each Hedge Counterparty, promptly
appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent a leading bank which is engaged in
transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market and
which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the
Issuer or the Co-Issuer.  The Calculation
Agent may not resign its duties without a successor having been duly appointed,
and shall promptly inform the Hedge Counterparty of any such appointment.  If no successor Calculation Agent shall have
been appointed within thirty (30) days after giving of a notice of resignation,
the resigning Calculation Agent, each Hedge Counterparty, a Majority of the
Notes or any Holder of a Note, on behalf of himself and all others similarly
situated, may petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of
a successor Calculation Agent.


(b)      The Calculation Agent
shall be required to agree that, as soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as defined in Schedule G
hereto), but in no event later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the London
Banking Day immediately following each LIBOR Determination Date, the
Calculation Agent shall calculate (x) LIBOR for the next Interest Accrual
Period and (y) the amount of interest for such Interest Accrual Period payable
in respect of each U.S. $1,000 principal amount of each Class of Notes (rounded
to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded upward) on the related
Payment Date, and shall communicate such rates and amounts to the Issuer, the
Co-


 


181





















 


Issuer, the
Trustee, the Collateral Manager, the Paying Agent, each Hedge Counterparty and,
if any Class A Note is in the form of a Regulation S Global Security, to
Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. 
The Calculation Agent shall also specify to the Issuer and the Co-Issuer
the quotations upon which LIBOR is based, and in any event the Calculation
Agent shall notify the Issuer and the Co-Issuer before 5:00 p.m. (New York
time) on each LIBOR Determination Date if it has not determined and is not in
the process of determining LIBOR and the Interest Distribution Amounts for each
Class of Notes, together with the reasons therefor.  The determination of the Class A-1 Rate,
Class A-2 Rate, the Class A-3 Rate, the Class B-FL Rate, the Class C-FL Rate,
the Class D Rate, the Class E Rate, the Class F Rate, the Class G-FL Rate and
the Class H-FL Rate and the related Class A-1 Interest Distribution Amount,
Class A-2 Interest Distribution Amount, Class A-3 Interest Distribution Amount,
Class B-FL Interest Distribution Amount, Class C-FL Interest Distribution
Amount, Class D Interest Distribution Amount, Class E Interest Distribution
Amount, Class F Interest Distribution Amount, Class G-FL Interest Distribution
Amount and Class H-FL Interest Distribution Amount, respectively, by the
Calculation Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final and binding on all
parties.


Section 7.15           Certain
Tax Matters Regarding Assets.


(a)      The Collateral Manager,
on the Issuer’s behalf, shall not take any action that will result in (i) the
Issuer failing to qualify as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary for federal income tax
purposes (including, but not limited to, (A) the acquisition of any asset if
the ownership of such asset would cause the Issuer to fail to be treated as a
Qualified REIT Subsidiary or (B) an election to treat the Issuer as a “taxable
REIT subsidiary,” (as defined in Section 856(l) of the Code) (ii) or Gramercy
Investment failing to be a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless
the Issuer has previously received an opinion of Cadwalader, Wickersham &
Taft LLP or other nationally recognized tax counsel experienced in such matters
opining that the Issuer will be treated as a foreign corporation that will not
be treated as engaged in a trade or business in the United States for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, in which case the Collateral Manager on the Issuer’s
behalf shall not take any action that will cause the Issuer to be treated as a
foreign corporation engaged in a trade or business in the United States for
U.S. federal income tax purposes.


(b)      The Issuer will (x) pay or cause to be
paid any and all taxes levied or assessed upon the Issuer upon or in respect of
all or any part of the Issuer’s assets and timely file all tax returns and
information statements as required, and (y) if required to prevent the
withholding or imposition of U.S. withholding or income tax, deliver or cause
to be delivered IRS Form W-9 or W-8BEN, as appropriate (or
successor or other appropriate applicable form), to each issuer, counterparty
or paying agent with respect to (as applicable) a Collateral Debt Security at
the same time such Collateral Debt Security is purchased or entered into and
shall periodically deliver or cause to be delivered updated forms thereafter
upon notice of the expiration obsolescence of such form.

Section 7.16           Maintenance
of Listing.


(a)      For so long as any of the
Offered Notes remain Outstanding, the Issuer and Co-Issuer shall use all
reasonable efforts to arrange and maintain the listing of the Offered Notes on
the Irish Stock Exchange.


(b)      If the Offered Notes are
listed on the Irish Stock Exchange, the Issuer shall:


(i)       in each calendar year commencing in 2007,
request from the Irish Stock Exchange a waiver of the Irish Stock Exchange’s
requirement to publish annual reports and accounts;


(ii)      submit to the Irish Stock Exchange draft
copies of any proposed amendments to the Governing Documents which would affect
the rights of the Holders of the Offered Notes listed on the Irish Stock
Exchange;


(iii)     pay the annual fee for listing the Offered
Notes on the Irish Stock Exchange, if any; and


(iv)    inform the Irish Stock Exchange if the
rating assigned to any of the Offered Notes is reduced or withdrawn.


(c)      All notices, documents,
reports and other announcements delivered to such Company Announcements Office
shall be in the English language.


(d)      Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Co-Issuers determines
that the maintenance of the listing of any Class of Offered Notes on the Irish
Stock Exchange (or any alternative listing on another securities exchange) is
unduly onerous or burdensome, the Co-Issuers shall have the right to cause such
Class of Offered Notes to be delisted from the Irish Stock Exchange (or such
other securities exchange).  Without
limiting the Collateral Manager’s discretion with respect to any determination
that maintaining or obtaining a listing is unduly onerous or burdensome, the
Collateral Manager may take into account various factors, including any
requirement, resulting from a listing, that either Co-Issuer prepare financial
statements of any particular kind or provide additional disclosure of any
particular kind, in each case including any such requirement arising out of
disclosure or transparency directives of the European Union or any other law or
governmental rule.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the consent of a Majority of the Controlling Class shall be required
unless the reason for delisting relates to a legal/compliance, regulatory,
accounting or tax issue.  In the event
any Class of Offered Notes is delisted pursuant to this Section 7.16(d),
the Co-Issuers shall use reasonable efforts to obtain an alternative listing of
such Class of Offered Notes on another securities exchange chosen by the
Collateral Manager; provided, however, if the Collateral Manager
determines that obtaining an alternative listing is unduly onerous or
burdensome, the Co-Issuers shall not obtain an alternative listing for such
Class of Offered Notes.


 


183





















 


Section 7.17           Post-Closing
Purchases.


The Issuer agrees that,
for any purchases by the Issuer of Substitute Collateral Debt Securities from
the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates, the Issuer shall acquire such
Collateral Debt Securities pursuant to (i) the Collateral Management Agreement
or (ii) such other agreement as the Collateral Manager may reasonably deem
appropriate in accordance with advice of nationally recognized U.S. bankruptcy
counsel.


Section 7.18           Purchases
by the Collateral Manager.


In the event the
Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates purchases any Collateral Debt
Securities from the Issuer in connection with (i) any redemption of the Notes
or (ii) any auction or sale of Collateral Debt Securities, in each case,
pursuant to Sections 9.1 and 9.2 hereof, the Issuer agrees that
all such purchased Collateral Debt Securities will be held by the Collateral
Manager or its Affiliates in a special purpose entity as to which a
nonconsolidation opinion meeting then-applicable Rating Agency criteria is able
to be rendered, and will not be further transferred except to an unaffiliated
third party or another such special purpose entity.


Section 7.19           Provision
Regarding Certain Tax Information.


Following the Trustee’s
receipt of a request from a Holder of Class C Notes, Class D Notes, Class E
Notes, Class F Notes, Class G Notes, Class H Notes, Class J Notes or Class K
Notes, as applicable, for information described in United States Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1275-3(b)(1)(i) related to such Holder of Class C Notes,
Class D Notes, Class E Notes, Class F Notes, Class G Notes, Class H Notes,
Class J Notes or Class K Notes, as applicable (pursuant to the terms of such
Class C Note, Class D Note, Class E Note, Class F Note, Class G Note, Class H
Notes, Class J Notes or Class K Notes, as applicable) (such information, the “Requested
Tax Information”), the Trustee shall promptly provide notice of such request
to the Issuer, the Collateral Manager and the Initial Purchasers.  Promptly following the receipt of such notice
by the Issuer, the Issuer shall provide (or cause the Collateral Manager or the
Initial Purchaser to provide) to the Trustee, for provision to such Holder, the
Requested Tax Information subject to such notice.  The Trustee shall not be liable for the
sufficiency or accuracy of such Requested Tax Information.

and from time to time subject to the requirement provided below in this Section
8.1, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form
satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:


 


184

















 


(a)      to evidence the
succession of another Person to the Issuer or the Co-Issuer and the assumption
by any such successor Person of the covenants of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer
herein and in the Notes;

for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee and to add
to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to
facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee,
pursuant to the requirements of Sections 6.9, 6.10 and 6.12
hereof;


(e)      to correct or amplify the
description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture,
or to better assure, convey and confirm unto the Trustee any property subject
or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture (including, without

additional property;


(f)       to modify the

(g)      to accommodate the

(h)      to enable the Issuer and

(i)       otherwise to correct any

(j)       to take any action
commercially reasonably necessary or advisable to prevent the Issuer from
failing to qualify as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or to prevent the Issuer from
being treated as a foreign corporation subject to U.S. federal, state or local
income or franchise tax on a net income tax basis or to prevent the Issuer, the
Holders of the Securities or the Trustee from being treated as a foreign
corporation subject to withholding or other taxes, fees or assessments; provided that such action will not cause the Noteholders to
experience any material change to the timing, character or source of the income
from the Notes; and


 


185





















 


(k)      to conform this Indenture
(other than Section 7.18) to the provisions described in the Offering
Memorandum, dated August 6, 2007 (or any supplement thereto).


The Trustee is hereby
authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to
make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein
contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such
supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties,
liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, except to the
extent required by law.


If any Class of Notes is
Outstanding and rated by a Rating Agency, the Trustee shall not enter into any
such supplemental indenture if, as a result of such supplemental indenture,
such Rating Agency would cause the rating of any such Notes to be reduced or
withdrawn.  At the cost of the Issuer,
for so long as any Class of Notes shall remain Outstanding and is rated by a
Rating Agency, the Trustee shall provide to such Rating Agency a copy of any
proposed supplemental indenture at least fifteen (15) days prior to the execution
thereof by the Trustee, and, for so long as such Notes are Outstanding and so
rated, request written confirmation that such Rating Agency will not, as a
result of such supplemental indenture, cause the rating of any such Class of
Notes to be reduced or withdrawn, and, as soon as practicable after the
execution by the Trustee, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer of any such supplemental
indenture, provide to such Rating Agency a copy of the executed supplemental
indenture.


The Trustee shall not
enter into any such supplemental indenture if, as a result of such supplemental
indenture, the interests of any Holder of Securities would be materially and
adversely affected thereby or such action will cause the Holders of the Notes
to experience any material change to the timing, character or source of the
income from the Notes, unless the Majority of each and every Class of Notes or
the Preferred Shares so affected have approved such Supplemental
Indenture.  The Trustee shall be entitled
to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel provided by and at the expense of the party
requesting such supplemental indenture in determining whether or not the
Holders of Securities would be adversely affected by such change (after giving
notice of such change to the Holders of Securities).  Such determination shall be conclusive and
binding on all present and future Holders of Securities.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any such
determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel
delivered to the Trustee as described in Section 8.3 hereof.


Furthermore, the Trustee
shall not enter into any such supplemental indenture unless the Trustee has
received an Opinion of Counsel from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft LLP or
other nationally recognized U.S. tax counsel experienced in such matters that
the proposed supplemental indenture will not cause the Issuer to fail to be
treated as a Qualified REIT Subsidiary or otherwise be treated as a foreign
corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income tax basis.


Section 8.2             Supplemental
Indentures with Consent of Securityholders.


Except as set forth
below, with the written consent of the holders of not less than a Majority in
Aggregate Outstanding Amount (excluding any Collateral Manager Securities) of
the Notes of each class materially and adversely affected thereby and all of
the Holders of Preferred Shares if materially and adversely affected thereby
and the Controlling Class (but only


 


186

















 


for so long as the
Class A-1 Notes and/or the Class A-2 Notes are the Controlling Class) by Act of
said Securityholders delivered to the Trustee and the Co-Issuers and subject to
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, the Trustee and the Co-Issuers may
enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto to add any provisions to,
or change in any manner or eliminate any of the provisions of, this Indenture
or modify in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes of such Class or
the Preferred Shares, as the case may be, under this Indenture.  Unless notified (after giving fifteen (15)
Business Days’ notice of such change to the Holders of each Class of Notes and
the Holders of the Preferred Shares) by Holders of a Majority (excluding any
Collateral Manager Securities) of the Notes of any Class or the Preferred
Shares that such Class will be materially and adversely affected by the
proposed supplemental indenture, the interests of such Class shall be deemed
not to be materially and adversely affected by such proposed supplemental
indenture.  Such determinations shall be
conclusive and binding on all present and future Noteholders and Holders of the
Preferred Shares.  The consent of the
Holders of the Preferred Shares shall be binding on all present and future
Holders of the Preferred Shares.


Without the consent of,
in the case of clauses (a) through (h) and (j) below, all of the holders of
each Outstanding Class of Notes adversely affected, or, in the case of clause
(i) below, all of the Holders of the Controlling Class and in each such case
subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, no supplemental
indenture may:


(a)      change the Stated
Maturity of the principal of or the due date of any installment of interest on
any Note, reduce the principal amount thereof or the Note Interest Rate thereon
or the Redemption Price with respect to any Note, change the date of any
scheduled distribution on the Preferred Shares, or the Redemption Price with
respect thereto, or change the earliest date on which any Note may be redeemed
at the option of the Issuer, change the provisions of this Indenture that apply
the proceeds of any Assets to the payment of principal of or interest on Notes
or of distributions to the Preferred Shares Paying Agent for the payment of
distributions in respect of the Preferred Shares or change any place where, or
the coin or currency in which, any Note or the principal thereof or interest
thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement
of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of
redemption, on or after the applicable Redemption Date);


(b)      reduce the percentage of
the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Holders of Notes of each Class or the
Notional Amount of Preferred Shares of Preferred Shareholders whose consent is
required for the authorization of any such supplemental indenture or for any
waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain
Defaults hereunder or their consequences provided for in this Indenture;


(c)      impair or adversely
affect the Assets except as otherwise permitted in this Indenture;


(d)      permit the creation of
any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with
respect to any part of the Assets or terminate such lien on any property at any
time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note, or the Holder of any
Preferred Share as an indirect beneficiary, of the security afforded to such
Holder by the lien of this Indenture;


 


187





















 


(e)      reduce the percentage of
the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of Holders of Notes of each Class whose
consent is required to request the Trustee to preserve the Assets or rescind
the Trustee’s election to preserve the Assets pursuant to Section 5.5 or
to sell or liquidate the Assets pursuant to Section 5.4 or 5.5
hereof;


(f)       modify any of the
provisions of this Section 8.2, except to increase any percentage of
outstanding Notes whose holders’ consent is required for any such action or to
provide that other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived
without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby;


(g)      modify the definition of
the term “Outstanding” or the provisions of Sections 11.1 or 13.1
hereof;


(h)      modify or amend any of
the non-petition and limited-recourse provisions set forth herein or in any of
the related Transaction Documents;


(i)       modify the definition of
the term “Collateral Manager Servicing Standard”; or


(j)       modify any of the
provisions of this Indenture in such a manner as to affect the calculation of
the amount of any payment of interest or principal on any Note on any Payment
Date or of distributions to the Preferred Shares Paying Agent for the payment
of distributions in respect of the Preferred Shares on any Payment Date (or any
other date) or to affect the rights of the Holders of Securities to the benefit
of any provisions for the redemption of such Securities contained herein;


provided,  however,
that no supplemental indenture may reduce the permitted minimum denominations
of the Notes or modify any provisions regarding non-recourse or non-petition
covenants with respect to the Issuer and the Co-Issuer.


If any Class of Notes are
Outstanding and rated by a Rating Agency, the Trustee shall not enter into any
such supplemental indenture if, as a result of such supplemental indenture,
such Rating Agency would cause the rating of any such Notes to be immediately
reduced or withdrawn.  At the cost of the
Issuer, for so long as any Class of Notes shall remain Outstanding and is rated
by a Rating Agency, the Trustee shall provide to such Rating Agency a copy of
any proposed supplemental indenture at least fifteen (15) days prior to the
execution thereof by the Trustee, and, for so long as such Notes are Outstanding
and so rated, request written confirmation that such Rating Agency will not, as
a result of such supplemental indenture, cause the rating of any such Class of
Notes to be reduced or withdrawn.


The Trustee shall be
entitled to rely upon an Opinion of Counsel provided by and at the expense of
the party requesting such supplemental indenture in determining whether or not
the Holders of Securities would be adversely affected by such change (after
giving notice of such change to the Holders of Securities).  Such determination shall be conclusive and
binding on all present and future Holders of Securities.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any such
determination made in good faith and in reliance upon an Opinion of Counsel
delivered to the Trustee as described in Section 8.3 hereof.


 


188

















 


It shall not be necessary
for any Act of Securityholders under this Section 8.2 to approve the
particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be
sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.


Promptly after the
execution by the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee of any supplemental
indenture pursuant to this Section 8.2, the Trustee, at the expense of
the Issuer, shall mail to the Securityholders, each Hedge Counterparty, the
Preferred Shares Paying Agent, the Collateral Manager, and, so long as the
Notes are Outstanding and so rated, each Rating Agency a copy thereof based on
an outstanding rating.  Any failure of
the Trustee to publish or mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not,
however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental
indenture.


Section 8.3             Execution
of Supplemental Indentures.


In executing or accepting
the additional trusts created by any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article
8 or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the
Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying
upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental
indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that all conditions
precedent thereto have been satisfied. 
The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such
supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 
The Collateral Manager shall be bound to follow any amendment or
supplement to this Indenture of which it has received written notice at least
ten (10) Business Days prior to the execution and delivery of such amendment or
supplement; provided,  however,
that with respect to any amendment or supplement to this Indenture which may,
in the judgment of the Collateral Manager adversely affect the Collateral
Manager, the Collateral Manager shall not be bound (and the Issuer agrees that
it shall not permit any such amendment to become effective) unless the
Collateral Manager gives written consent to the Trustee and the Issuer to such
amendment.  The Issuer and the Trustee
shall give written notice to the Collateral Manager of any amendment made to
this Indenture pursuant to its terms.  In
addition, the Collateral Manager’s written consent shall be required prior to
any amendment to this Indenture by which it is adversely affected.


Section 8.4             Effect
of Supplemental Indentures.


Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture under this Article 8, this Indenture shall be
modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a
part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Notes and
Preferred Shares theretofore and thereafter authenticated and delivered
hereunder shall be bound thereby.


Section 8.5             Reference
in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.


Notes authenticated and
delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article
8 may, and if required by the Trustee shall, bear a notice in form approved
by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental
indenture.  If the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall so determine, new Notes, so modified as to conform in the
opinion of the Trustee and the Issuer and the Co-Issuer to any such
supplemental indenture, may


 


189

















 


be prepared and
executed by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Notes.


Section 8.6             Certain
Consents Required for all Supplemental Indentures.


Notwithstanding anything
in this Article 8 to the contrary, so long as the Class A-1 Notes and/or
the Class A-2 Notes or the Class A-2 Note Insurer, as applicable, are the
Controlling Class, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee shall not enter
into any supplemental indenture without obtaining the consent of the Holders of
a Majority of the Controlling Class (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld); provided that, if the Holders of the Controlling Class or the
Class A-2 Note Insurer, as applicable, do not object to such supplemental
indenture within fifteen (15) Business Days after notice is given, such Holders
shall be deemed to have consented to such supplemental indenture.


Notwithstanding anything
in this Article 8 to the contrary, the Issuer shall not enter into any
such supplemental indenture without the consent of each Hedge Counterparty
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), and each Hedge Counterparty
shall not be bound by any such supplemental indenture unless such Hedge
Counterparty shall have given its prior written consent or shall have failed to
respond within 15 Business Days after the Issuer or the Trustee has provided it
with prior written notice thereof.

Redemption may be withdrawn by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer at the direction of
the Collateral Manager up to the fourth Business Day prior to the scheduled
Redemption Date by written notice to the Trustee, the Irish Paying Agent (for
so long as any Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange), each Hedge
Counterparty, the Class A-2 Note Insurer, each Holder of Notes to be redeemed
and the Collateral Manager only if (i) in the case of an Optional Redemption, a
Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption the Collateral Manager is unable to deliver
the sale agreement or agreements or certifications referred to in Section
9.1(e), as the case may be or (ii) in the case of an Auction Call
Redemption, the Auction is unable to be consummated pursuant to the Auction
Procedures.


Section 9.4             Notice
of Redemption or Maturity by the Issuer.


Notice of redemption
pursuant to Section 9.1, Section 9.2 or the Maturity of any Notes
shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than ten
(10) Business Days (or four (4) Business Days where the notice of an Auction
Call Redemption, an Optional Redemption, a Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption is
withdrawn pursuant to Section 9.3(b)) prior to the applicable Redemption
Date or Maturity, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at its address in the
Notes Register.  In addition, so long as
any Notes are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange, notice of redemption or
Maturity shall be published in the Irish Stock Exchange’s Daily Official List
or as otherwise required by the rules of the Irish Stock Exchange not less than
ten (10) Business Days prior to the applicable Redemption Date or Maturity.


All notices of redemption
shall state:


(a)      the applicable Redemption

(b)      the applicable Redemption
Price;


(c)      that all the Notes are
being paid in full, and that interest on the Notes shall cease to accrue on the

provided in Section 7.2.


Notice of redemption
shall be given by the Issuer and Co-Issuer, or at their request, by the Trustee
in their names and at the expense of the Issuer.  Failure to give notice of


 


194

















 


redemption, or any
defect therein, to any Holder of any Note shall not impair or affect the
validity of the redemption of any other Notes.


Section 9.5             Notes
Payable on Redemption Date.


Notice of redemption
having been given as aforesaid, the Notes to be redeemed shall, on the
Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein

Default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) the Notes
shall cease to bear interest on the Redemption Date.  Upon final payment on a Note to be redeemed,
the Holder shall present and surrender such Note at the place specified in the
notice of redemption on or prior to such Redemption Date; provided,  however, that if there is delivered to the Issuer,
the Co-Issuer and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by
them to save each of them harmless (an unsecured indemnity agreement delivered
to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee by an institutional investor with
a net worth of at least U.S.$200,000,000 being deemed to satisfy such security
or indemnity requirement) and an undertaking thereafter to surrender such Note,
then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Co-Issuer and the Trustee
that the applicable Note has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, such final payment shall be made without presentation or
surrender.  Payments of interest on Notes
of a Class so to be redeemed whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more
predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant
Record Date according to the terms and provisions of Section 2.7(o).


If any Note called for
redemption shall not be paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the
principal thereof shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at
the applicable Note Interest Rate for each successive Interest Accrual Period
the Note remains Outstanding.


Section 9.6             Mandatory
Redemption.


On any Payment Date on
which any of the Par Value Coverage Tests applicable to any Class of Notes was
not met as of the most recent Measurement Date, the Notes shall be redeemed (a “Mandatory Redemption”),
first from Interest Proceeds and then from Principal Proceeds in each case in
accordance with the Priority of Payments in an amount necessary, and only to
the extent necessary, to cause each of the Par Value Coverage Tests to be
satisfied.  Further, each Hedge Agreement
shall be terminated in part in accordance with the terms thereof and any
payments due and payable on the Hedge Agreement in connection with the
termination of the Hedge Agreement shall be made on such Payment Date in
accordance with the terms thereof and this Indenture, including satisfaction of
the Rating Agency Condition.  Such
Principal Proceeds and Interest Proceeds shall be applied to each of the
outstanding Classes of Notes in accordance with its relative seniority in
accordance with the Priority of Payments. 
On or promptly after such Mandatory Redemption, the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall certify or cause to be certified to each of the Rating Agencies
and the Trustee whether the Par Value Coverage Tests have been met.


 


195

















 


Section 9.7             Special
Amortization.


The Notes may be
amortized in part by the Issuer (at the election and direction of the
Collateral Manager) if, at any time during the Replenishment Period, the
Collateral Manager has been unable, for a period of at least thirty (30)
consecutive days, to identify Substitute Collateral Debt Securities that it
determines would be appropriate and would meet the Eligibility Criteria in
sufficient amounts to permit the reinvestment of all or a portion of the
Replenishment Proceeds on deposit in the Principal Collection Account in
Substitute Collateral Debt Securities. 
The Collateral Manager shall notify the Trustee, the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Class A-2 Note Insurer and each Hedge Counterparty of such
election (a “Special Amortization”)
and the amount to be amortized (such amount, the “Special Amortization Amount”).  On the first Payment Date following the date
on which such notice is given (provided such notice is given by the related
Determination Date), the Special Amortization Amount will be applied to
amortize the Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments (i) on a pro rata basis (based on the Aggregate Outstanding Amount of
each Class) among all Classes of Notes (without regard to any Capitalized
Interest) if each of the S&P Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition and
the Moody’s Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition is satisfied with respect
to the related Payment Date and the Par Value Coverage Tests are satisfied as
of such Payment Date (after giving effect to Mandatory Redemption Payments
actually made, if any, on such Payment Date) or (ii) sequentially among all
Classes of Notes, if either the S&P Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition
or the Moody’s Special Amortization Pro Rata Condition is not satisfied with
respect to the related Payment Date or the Par Value Coverage Tests are not
satisfied as of such Payment Date (after giving effect to Mandatory Redemption
Payments actually made, if any, on such Payment Date); provided, however,
that all amounts representing recoveries in respect of Defaulted Securities
will be distributed sequentially in any event, in accordance with Section
11.1(a)(ii)(15); and provided, further, that, for the
avoidance of doubt, the Closing Date CMBS Proceeds will not be subject to any
Special Amortization.

Distributions or other proceeds constitute Collateral Debt Securities or
Eligible Investments.


(c)      If prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default, the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer, shall not have given any investment directions pursuant

the applicable Collection Account in one or more Eligible Investments described
in clause (ii) of the definition of Eligible Investments maturing no later than
the Business Day immediately preceding the next Payment Date.  If after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the Issuer, or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer, shall

willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any insufficiency of such
applicable Collection Account

resulting from any
loss relating to any such investment, except with respect to investments in
obligations of the Trustee or any Affiliate thereof.

amount due and payable by the Issuer under the related Hedge Agreement
following an Event of Default or Termination Event (other than Illegality or
Tax event) (each as defined in the related Hedge Agreement) with respect to
which such Hedge Counterparty is the Defaulting Party or the sole Affected
Party (as defined in the related Hedge Agreement)), if any, then due and
payable to such Hedge Counterparty in accordance with the terms of the related
Hedge Agreement.  Any required
payments to Hedge Counterparties pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding
sentence shall be made, first, from amounts on deposit in the Interest
Collection Account and, second, to the extent amounts on deposit in the
Interest Collection Account are insufficient, from amounts on deposit in the
Principal Collection Account.  The Trustee shall make each such transfer
on or prior to the Business Day prior to the related payment date.


(g)      Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Trustee shall deposit a portion, as specified in the related
Asset Hedge Schedules, of all payments of interest received in respect of
Non-Quarterly Pay Assets into the Asset Hedge Account.


Section 10.3           Payment
Account.


(a)      The Trustee shall, prior
to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated trust account which shall
be designated as the “Payment Account,” which shall be held in trust


 


199





















 


for the benefit of
the Noteholders and each Hedge Counterparty and over which the Trustee shall
have exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal.  Any and all funds at any time on deposit in,
or otherwise to the credit of, the Payment Account shall be held in trust by
the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders. 
Except as provided in Article 11, the only permitted withdrawal
from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, the
Payment Account shall be (i) to pay the interest on and the principal of the
Notes and make other payments in respect of the Notes in accordance with their
terms and the provisions of this Indenture, (ii) to pay the Preferred Share
Paying Agent for deposit into the Preferred Share Distribution Account for
distributions to the Preferred Shareholders in accordance with the terms and
the provisions of the Preferred Shares Paying Agency Agreement, (iii) upon
Issuer Order, to pay other amounts specified therein, and (iv) otherwise to pay
amounts payable pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Indenture,
each in accordance with the Priority of Payments.  The Trustee agrees to give the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Payment Account or any
funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Payment Account,
shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of attachment,
execution or similar process.  Neither
the Issuer nor the Co-Issuer shall have any legal, equitable or beneficial
interest in the Payment Account other than in accordance with the Priority of
Payments.  The Payment Account shall
remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office or a financial institution
having a long-term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A-” or “A3,”
as applicable, or a short-term debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal
to “A-1,”  “P-1” or “F1,” as
applicable.  Amounts in the Payment
Account shall not be invested.


Section 10.4           Delayed
Funding Obligations Account.


(a)      The Trustee shall prior
to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be
designated as the “Delayed Funding Obligations Account” which shall be held in
trust in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each
Hedge Counterparty, into which Delayed Draw Funding Obligations Account the
Trustee shall deposit funds for any additional funding commitments of the
Issuer under any Delayed Draw Term Loans included in the Collateral Debt
Securities.  All amounts in the Delayed
Funding Obligations Account shall be deposited in overnight funds in Eligible
Investments and released to fulfill such commitments.  If a Delayed Draw Term Loan is sold or
otherwise disposed before the full commitment thereunder has been drawn, or if
excess funds remain following the termination of the funding obligation giving
rise to the deposit of such funds in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account,
such Eligible Investments on deposit in the Delayed Funding Obligations Account
for the purpose of fulfilling such commitment shall be transferred to the
Principal Collection Account as Principal Proceeds.  The Delayed Funding Obligations Account shall
remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office or a financial institution
having a long-term debt rating from each Rating Agency at least equal to “A-”
or “A3,” as applicable, or a short-term debt rating at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1”
or “F1,” as applicable.


(b)      Funds in the Delayed
Funding Obligations Account shall be available solely to fulfill any additional
funding commitments of the Issuer under any Delayed Draw Term Loans included in
the Collateral Debt Securities, and only funds in the Delayed Funding
Obligations Account shall be used for such purpose.  Upon the purchase of any Collateral


 


200





















 


Debt Security that
is a Delayed Draw Term Loan, the Collateral Manager shall direct the Trustee to
deposit Principal Proceeds into the Delayed Funding Obligation Account in an
amount equal to the Issuer’s maximum future funding obligation under the terms
of such Delayed Draw Term Loan, and the Principal Proceeds so deposited shall
be considered part of the purchase price of such Delayed Draw Term Loan for
purposes of Article 12.  The
Collateral Manager shall not permit all amounts then on deposit in the Delayed
Funding Obligation Account to be less than the aggregate amount of all future
funding obligations outstanding under the terms of all Delayed Draw Term Loans
that constitute Collateral Debt Securities.


(c)      The Collateral Manager
shall direct the Trustee to withdraw funds from the Delayed Funding Obligation
Account to fund amounts drawn under any Delayed Draw Term Loan.  Pursuant to an Issuer Order, all or a portion
of the funds, as specified in such Issuer Order, on deposit in the Delayed
Funding Obligation Account at any time in excess of the aggregate principal
amount of commitments which may be drawn upon under the Delayed Draw Term Loan
shall be transferred by the Trustee to the Collection Account as Principal
Proceeds.


Section 10.5           Expense
Account.


(a)      The Trustee shall prior
to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be
designated as the “Expense Account” which shall be held in trust in the name of
the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge
Counterparty.  The only permitted
withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise standing to
the credit of, the Expense Account shall be to pay (on any day other than a
Payment Date) accrued and unpaid Company Administrative Expenses of the Issuer
and the Co-Issuer (other than accrued and unpaid expenses and indemnities
payable to the Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management
Agreement).  On the Closing Date, the
Trustee shall deposit into the Expense Account an amount equal to approximately
U.S.$150,000 from the net proceeds received by the Issuer on such date from the
initial issuance of the Securities. 
Funds in the Expense Account shall be replenished on each Payment Date,
if necessary, in accordance with the Priority of Payments.  On or after the Closing Date, any amount
remaining in the Expense Account may, at the election of the Collateral Manager
be designated as Interest Proceeds.  On
the date on which substantially all of the Issuer’s assets have been sold or
otherwise disposed of, the Issuer by Issuer Order executed by an Authorized
Officer of the Collateral Manager shall direct the Trustee to, and, upon
receipt of such Issuer Order, the Trustee shall, transfer all amounts on
deposit in the Expense Account to the Interest Collection Account for
application pursuant to Section 11.1(a)(i) as Interest Proceeds.  Amounts credited to the Expense Account will
(a) be applied on or prior to the Determination Date preceding the first
Payment Date to pay amounts due in connection with the offering of the
Securities and (b) on the first Payment Date, to the extent the balance of the
Expense Account exceeds $150,000 on the related Determination Date, be
transferred to the Payment Account and applied as Interest Proceeds.


(b)      The Trustee agrees to
give the Issuer immediate notice if it becomes aware that the Expense Account
or any funds on deposit therein, or otherwise to the credit of the Expense
Account, shall become subject to any writ, order, judgment, warrant of
attachment,


 


201





















 


execution or
similar process.  The Issuer shall not
have any legal, equitable or beneficial interest in the Expense Account.  The Expense Account shall remain at all times
with the Corporate Trust Office of a financial institution having a long-term
debt rating by each Rating Agency at least equal to “A-” or “Baa1,” as
applicable.


(c)      The Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer may direct the Trustee to, and upon such direction the
Trustee shall, invest all funds in the Expense Account in Eligible Investments
designated by the Collateral Manager. 
All interest and other income from such investments shall be deposited
in the Expense Account, any gain realized from such investments shall be
credited to the Expense Account, and any loss resulting from such investments
shall be charged to the Expense Account. 
The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable (except as a result of
negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) by reason of any insufficiency of
such Expense Account resulting from any loss relating to any such investment,
except with respect to investments in obligations of the Trustee or any
Affiliate thereof.  If the Trustee does
not receive investment instructions from an Authorized Officer of the
Collateral Manager, the Trustee may invest funds received in the Expense
Account in Eligible Investments of the type described in clause (ii) of the
definition thereto.


Section 10.6           Asset
Hedge Account.


The Trustee shall prior
to the Closing Date establish a single, segregated trust account which shall be
designated as the “Asset Hedge Account” which shall be held in trust in the
name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer.  The only permitted withdrawal from or
application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise standing to the credit of, the
Asset Hedge Account shall be funds received in respect of each payment of
interest in respect of any Non-Quarterly Pay Asset.  On each date on which the Trustee receives a
payment of interest in respect of any Non-Quarterly Pay Asset, the Trustee
shall deposit a portion of the amount received into the Collection Account and
shall deposit the remaining portion in to the Asset Hedge Account in accordance
with the Asset Hedge Schedule.  On the
third Business Day prior to each quarterly Payment Date, the Trustee will
transfer from the Asset Hedge Account to the Collection Account, for
distribution in accordance with the Priority of Payments, the amounts specified
in the Asset Hedge Schedule.  All funds
on deposit in the Asset Hedge Account will be invested in Eligible Investments
in accordance hereto..


Section 10.7           Interest
Advances.


(a)      With respect to each
Determination Date for which the sum of Interest Proceeds and, if applicable,
Principal Proceeds, collected during the related Due Period that are available
to pay interest on the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes in accordance with
the Priority of Payments, are insufficient to remit the interest due and
payable with respect to the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes on the
following Payment Date (the amount of such insufficiency, an “Interest Shortfall”),
the Trustee shall provide the Advancing Agent with written notice of such
Interest Shortfall no later than the close of business on the Business Day following
such Determination Date.  The Trustee
shall provide the Advancing Agent with notice, prior to any funding of an
Interest Advance by the Advancing Agent, of any additional interest remittances
received by the Trustee after delivery of such initial notice that reduce such
Interest Shortfall.  No later than 5:00
p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day


 


202





















 


immediately
preceding the related Payment Date (but in any event no earlier than one
Business Day following the Advancing Agent’s receipt of notice of such Interest
Shortfall), the Advancing Agent shall advance the difference between such
amounts (each such advance, an “Interest
Advance”) by deposit of an amount equal to such Interest
Advance in the Payment Account, subject to a determination of recoverability by
the Advancing Agent as described in Section 10.7(b), and subject to a
maximum limit in respect of any Payment Date equal to the lesser of (i) the
aggregate of such Interest Shortfalls that would otherwise occur on the Class A
Notes and the Class B Notes and (ii) the aggregate of the interest payments not
received in respect of Non-Advancing Collateral Debt Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no circumstance
shall the Advancing Agent be required to make an Interest Advance in respect of
a Non-Advancing Collateral Debt Security (x) to the extent that the aggregate
outstanding amount of all unreimbursed Interest Advances would exceed the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A Notes and the Class B
Notes or (y) if the Class A/B Par Value Ratio on the relevant Measurement Date
is less than 100%.  Any Interest Advance
made by the Advancing Agent with respect to a Payment Date that is in excess of
the actual Interest Shortfall for such Payment Date shall be refunded to the
Advancing Agent by the Trustee on the same Business Day that such Interest
Advance was made (or, if such Interest Advance is made prior to final
determination by the Trustee of such Interest Shortfall, on the Business Day of
such final determination).  The Advancing
Agent shall provide the Trustee written notice of a determination by the
Advancing Agent that a proposed Interest Advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance no later than the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the related Payment Date (or, in the event that the
Advancing Agent did not receive notice of the related Interest Shortfall on the
related Determination Date, no later than the close of business on the Business
Day immediately following the Advancing Agent’s receipt of notice of such
Interest Shortfall).  If the Advancing
Agent shall fail to make any required Interest Advance at or prior to the time
at which distributions are to be made pursuant to Section 11.1(a), the
Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, shall be required to make
such Interest Advance, subject to a determination of recoverability by the
Trustee as described in Section 10.7(b). 
The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any affirmative
determination by the Advancing Agent that an Interest Advance would constitute
a Nonrecoverable Advance.  Based upon
available information at the time, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager or the
Advancing Agent will provide fifteen (15) days prior notice to each Rating
Agency if recovery of a Nonrecoverable Advance would result in an Interest
Shortfall on the next succeeding Payment Date. 
No later than the close of business on the Determination Date related to
a Payment Date on which the recovery of a Nonrecoverable Advance would result
in an Interest Shortfall, the Collateral Manager will provide each Rating
Agency notice of such recovery.


(b)      Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, neither the Advancing Agent nor the Trustee, in its
capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable, shall be required to make
any Interest Advance unless such Person determines, in its sole discretion,
exercised in good faith that such Interest Advance, or such proposed Interest
Advance, plus interest expected to accrue thereon at the Reimbursement Rate,
will be recoverable from subsequent payments or collections with respect to all
Assets and has determined in its reasonable judgment that the recovery would
not result in an Interest Shortfall.  In
determining whether any proposed Interest Advance will be, or whether any
Interest Advance previously


 


203





















 


made is, a
Nonrecoverable Advance, the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as
Backup Advancing Agent, as applicable, will take into account:


(i)       amounts that may be realized on each
Underlying Mortgaged Property in its “as is” or then current condition and
occupancy;


(ii)      that the related Senior Tranches of any Collateral
Debt Security may be required to be fully paid and any advances (and interest
thereon) made in respect of such Senior Tranches may be required to be fully
reimbursed, prior to any amounts recovered in respect of the Underlying
Mortgaged Properties are allocated or otherwise made available to the
Collateral Debt Securities;


(iii)     the possibility and effects of future
adverse change with respect to the Underlying Mortgaged Properties, the
potential length of time before such Interest Advance may be reimbursed and the
resulting degree of uncertainty with respect to such reimbursement; and


(iv)    the fact that Interest Advances are intended
to provide liquidity only and not credit support to the Class A-1 Noteholders,
the Class A-2 Noteholders, the Class A-3 Noteholders, the Class B-FL
Noteholders and the Class B-FX Noteholders.


For purposes of any such
determination of whether an Interest Advance constitutes or would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance, an Interest Advance shall be deemed to be nonrecoverable
if the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing
Agent, as applicable, determines that future Interest Proceeds and Principal
Proceeds may be ultimately insufficient to fully reimburse such Interest
Advance, plus interest thereon at the Reimbursement Rate within a reasonable
period of time.  Absent bad faith, the
determination by the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup
Advancing Agent, as applicable, as to the nonrecoverability of any Interest
Advance shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders of the Notes.


(c)      The Advancing Agent and
the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, will each be entitled
to recover any previously unreimbursed Interest Advance made by it (including
any Nonrecoverable Advance), together with interest thereon, first, from
Interest Proceeds and second (to the extent that there are insufficient
Interest Proceeds for such reimbursement), from Principal Proceeds to the
extent that such reimbursement would not trigger an additional Interest
Shortfall; provided  that if at any
time an Interest Advance is determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, the
Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent,
shall be entitled to recover all outstanding Interest Advances from the
Collection Accounts on any Business Day during any Interest Accrual Period
prior to the related Determination Date (or on a Payment Date prior to any
payment of interest on or principal of the Notes in accordance with the
Priority of Payments).  The Advancing
Agent shall be permitted (but not obligated) to defer or otherwise structure
the timing of recoveries of Nonrecoverable Advances in such manner as the
Advancing Agent determines is in the best interest of the Noteholders as a collective
whole, which may include being reimbursed for Nonrecoverable Advances in
installments.


 


204





















 


(d)      The Advancing Agent and
the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, will each be entitled with
respect to any Interest Advance made by it (including Nonrecoverable Advances)
to interest accrued on the amount of such Interest Advance for so long as it is
outstanding at the Reimbursement Rate.


(e)      The obligations of the
Advancing Agent and the Trustee to make Interest Advances in respect of the
Collateral Debt Securities will continue through the Stated Maturity, unless
the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes are previously redeemed or repaid in
full.


(f)       In no event will the
Advancing Agent in its capacity as such hereunder or the Trustee, in its
capacity as Backup Advancing Agent hereunder, be required to make Interest
Advances for distributions to the Holders of any Class of Notes other than the
Class A Notes and the Class B Notes, or with respect to any Collateral Debt
Security other than a Non-Advancing Collateral Debt Security, and in no event
will the Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as backup advancing
agent, be required to advance any amounts in respect of payments of principal
of any Collateral Debt Security.


(g)      In consideration of the
performance of its obligations hereunder, the Advancing Agent shall be entitled
to receive, at the times set forth herein and subject to the Priority of
Payments, to the extent funds are available therefor, the Advancing Agent
Fee.  In consideration of the Trustee’s
back-up advancing obligations hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, at the times set forth herein and subject to the Priority of Payments,
to the extent funds are available therefore, the Backup Advancing Agent Fee.


(h)      The determination by the
Advancing Agent or the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, as
applicable, (i) that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or (ii) that any
proposed Interest Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance,
shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered promptly to the
Trustee (or, if applicable, retained thereby), the Issuer, the applicable
Rating Agencies, setting forth the basis for such determination; provided  that failure to give such notice, or any defect therein,
shall not impair or affect the validity of, or the Advancing Agent or the
Trustee’s entitlement to reimbursement with respect to, any Interest Advance.


(i)       If a Scheduled Distribution
on any Collateral Debt Security is not paid to the Trustee on the Due Date
therefor, the Trustee shall provide the Advancing Agent with notice of such
default on the Business Day immediately following such default.  In addition, upon request, the Trustee shall
provide the Advancing Agent (either electronically or in hard-copy format),
with copies of all reports received from any trustee, trust administrator,
master servicer or similar administrative entity with respect to the Collateral
Debt Securities and the Trustee shall promptly make available to the Advancing
Agent any other information reasonably available to the Trustee by reason of
its acting as Trustee hereunder to permit the Advancing Agent to make a
determination of recoverability with respect to any Interest Advance and to
otherwise perform its advancing functions under this Indenture.

expressly permitted or required by this Indenture (including, without
limitation, Section 12.2), the Issuer shall not sell or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral Debt Security; provided that subject to
satisfaction of any applicable conditions in Section 10.10, so long as
(A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) on or prior to
the trade date for such sale the Collateral Manager has certified to the
Trustee that each of the conditions applicable to such sale set forth below has
been satisfied, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer acting pursuant
to the Collateral Management Agreement may direct the Trustee in writing to
sell, and the Trustee shall sell in the manner directed by the Collateral
Manager in writing (which writing shall specify whether such security is a
Defaulted Security, a Credit Risk Security or a Spread Appreciated Security, if
applicable, or whether such security is otherwise permitted to be sold pursuant
to this Section 12.1(a)):


(i)       any Defaulted Security, at any time; provided
that, during the Replenishment Period with respect to the reinvestment of Sale
Proceeds received in respect of Defaulted Securities which are Replenishable
Assets, the Collateral Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
reinvest such Sale Proceeds in one or more Substitute Collateral Debt
Securities having an aggregate Principal Balance of not less than 100% of the
Sale Proceeds of each Defaulted Security being sold;


(ii)      a Credit Risk Security or Spread
Appreciated Security that is a Replenishable Asset, (A) during the
Replenishment Period, if the Collateral Manager has certified to the Trustee that
it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to purchase one or more Substitute
Collateral Debt Securities having an Aggregate Principal Balance no less than
100% of the Sale Proceeds (excluding accrued interest) from such sale and the
Collateral Manager, in its reasonable business judgment, believes that (i) in
the case of the sale of a Credit Risk Security or a Spread Appreciated Security
(that is not a CMBS Security), the Sale Proceeds may be reinvested in
Substitute Collateral Debt Securities within 45 calendar days or (ii) in the
case of the sale of a Credit Risk Security or a Spread Appreciated Security
(that is a CMBS Security that is not a Closing Date CMBS Security), the Sale
Proceeds may be reinvested in Substitute Collateral Debt Securities within 15
calendar days, and after giving effect to such sale and to the purchase of
Substitute Collateral Debt Securities with the Sale Proceeds thereof, in the
reasonable business judgment of the Collateral Manager (which shall not be
called into question solely as a result of subsequent events), the
Replenishment Criteria shall be met; provided that,
with respect to the reinvestment of Sale Proceeds received in respect of Spread
Appreciated Securities which are Replenishable Assets, the Collateral Manager
will use commercially reasonable efforts to reinvest such Sale Proceeds in one
or more Substitute Collateral Debt Securities having an aggregate Principal Balance
of not less than 100% of


 


234





















 


the Principal
Balance of each Collateral Debt Security being sold and (B) after the
Replenishment Period, at any time;


(iii)     a Credit Risk Security that is a Closing
Date CMBS Security, at any time; and


(iv)    if a Collateral Debt Security that is a
Defaulted Security is not sold by the Issuer (at the direction of the
Collateral Manager) within three (3) years of such Collateral Debt Security
becoming a Defaulted Security, the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the Issuer,
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell such Collateral Debt
Security as soon as commercially practicable thereafter.


(b)      Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Collateral Manager (at its option and at any time) shall be
permitted to effect a sale under this Indenture of a Credit Risk Security or a
Defaulted Security pursuant to the related Underlying Instrument by purchasing
(or causing its affiliate to purchase) such Defaulted Security or Credit Risk
Security from the Issuer for a cash purchase price that shall be equal to the
sum of (i) the Aggregate Principal Balance thereof plus (ii) all accrued and
unpaid interest (or, in the case of a Preferred Equity Security, all accrued
and unpaid dividends or other distributions not attributable to the return of
capital by its governing documents) thereon and all other amounts due
thereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth herein, no Advisory Committee consent shall be required
in connection with such cash purchase (the “Permitted Cash Purchase”).


(c)      Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, the Collateral Manager, on behalf of the
Issuer, shall (at any time) be permitted to effect a sale of any Origination
Agreement Security hereunder by selling (or causing the Trustee to sell) such
Origination Agreement Security to SLG (an “Origination Agreement Security
Sale”) for a purchase price and upon such terms as determined in accordance
with the Origination Agreement. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no Advisory
Committee consent shall be required in connection with any such sales.


(d)      After the Issuer has
notified the Trustee of an Optional Redemption, a Clean-Up Call or a Tax
Redemption in accordance with Section 9.1 or an Auction Call Redemption
in accordance with Section 9.2, the Collateral Manager on behalf of the
Issuer acting pursuant to the Collateral Management Agreement may at any time
direct the Trustee in writing to sell, and the Trustee shall sell in the manner
directed by the Collateral Manager in writing, any Collateral Debt Security or
any applicable Eligible Investment without regard to the foregoing limitations
in Section 12.1(a); provided that:


(i)       the Sale Proceeds therefrom must be used
to pay certain expenses and redeem all of the Notes in whole but not in part
pursuant to Sections 9.1 and 9.2, and upon any such sale the
Trustee shall release such Collateral Debt Security pursuant to Section
10.10;


(ii)      the Issuer may not direct the Trustee to
sell (and the Trustee shall not be required to release) a Collateral Debt
Security or any applicable Eligible Investment pursuant to this Section
12.1(d) unless:


 


235





















 


(1)           the Collateral Manager certifies to
the Trustee that (x) in the Collateral Manager’s commercially reasonable
judgment based on calculations included in the certification (which shall
include the sales prices of each of the Collateral Debt Securities), the Sale
Proceeds from the sale of one or more of the Collateral Debt Securities and any
applicable Eligible Investments will be at least equal to the Total Auction
Call Redemption Price and (y) an Independent bond pricing service (which shall
be one or more broker-dealers selected by the Collateral Manager which are
rated at least “P-1” by Moody’s and at least “A-1+” by S&P and which make a
market in the applicable Collateral Debt Securities and Eligible Investments)
has confirmed (which confirmation may be in the form of a firm bid) the sales
prices contained in the certification in clause (x) above (and attaching a copy
of such confirmation); and


(2)           the Independent accountants appointed
by the Issuer pursuant to Section 10.11 shall confirm in writing the
calculations made in clause (1)(x) above.


(iii)     in connection with an Optional Redemption,
an Auction Call Redemption, a Clean-up Call or a Tax Redemption, all the
Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments to be sold
pursuant to this Section 12.1(d) must be sold in accordance with the
requirements set forth in Section 9.1(e) and Section 9.2, as
applicable.


(e)      In the event that any
Collateral Debt Security becomes the subject of a conversion, exchange,
redemption or offer, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Issuer (or the
Collateral Manager acting on behalf of the Issuer) shall take no action to
acquire the asset or instrument into which such Collateral Debt Security is
convertible or exchangeable unless such asset or instrument would qualify as a
Substitute Collateral Debt Security.  In
the event of an involuntary exchange or conversion of a Collateral Debt
Security, if the resulting asset or instrument would not qualify as a
Substitute Collateral Debt Security, the Issuer (or the Collateral Manager
acting on behalf of the Issuer) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
sell such Collateral Debt Security prior to conversion or exchange and, in any
event, shall refuse to accept, and shall not acquire or hold, the asset or
instrument offered in exchange.


(f)       In the event that any
Notes remain Outstanding as of the Payment Date occurring six months prior to
the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the Collateral Manager will be required to
determine whether proceeds expected to be received on the Assets prior to the
Stated Maturity of the Notes will be sufficient to pay in full the principal
amount of (and accrued interest on) the Notes on the Stated Maturity.  If the Collateral Manager determines, in its
sole discretion, that such proceeds will not be sufficient to pay the
outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest on the Notes (a “Note Liquidation Event”)
on the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the Issuer will, at the direction of the
Collateral Manager, be obligated to liquidate the portion of Collateral Debt
Securities sufficient to pay the remaining principal amount of and interest on
the Notes on or before the Stated Maturity. 
The Collateral Debt Securities to be liquidated by the Issuer will be
selected by the Collateral Manager.

Section 12.2           Replenishment
Criteria and Trading Restrictions.


(a)      Except as provided in Section
12.3(c), during the Replenishment Period, Replenishment Proceeds will be
reinvested in Substitute Collateral Debt Securities (which shall be, and hereby
are, Granted to the Trustee pursuant to the Granting Clause of this Agreement)
only if the Collateral Manager has not been removed, or voted to be removed as
a result of the occurrence of an act by the Collateral Manager or its
affiliates that constitutes fraud or criminal activity in the performance of
its obligations under the Collateral Management Agreement and, after giving
effect to such reinvestment, the following criteria (the “Replenishment Criteria”)
are satisfied, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer or the
Collateral Manager delivered to the Trustee, as of (i) the date of the
irrevocable and binding commitment to purchase such Substitute Collateral Debt
Securities in the case of the purchase of any CMBS Securities and (ii) the date
of purchase of such Substitute Collateral Debt Securities in the case of the
purchase of any other Specified Type of Collateral Debt Securities:


(i)       the Collateral Quality Tests are
satisfied, or, if any Collateral Quality Test was not satisfied immediately
prior to such reinvestment, the extent of compliance with such Collateral
Quality Test will be maintained or improved following such reinvestment, except
as otherwise specified in the Replenishment Criteria below;


(ii)      the Par Value Coverage Tests are
satisfied, or, except with respect to Sale Proceeds in respect of Defaulted
Securities, if not satisfied, are maintained or improved;


(iii)     if immediately prior to such investment the
S&P CDO Monitor Test or the S&P Recovery Test was not satisfied, such
test result is maintained or improved after giving effect to such reinvestment;
and


(iv)    no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.


For the avoidance
of doubt, no investment shall be made in Collateral Debt Securities after the
termination of the Replenishment Period. 
After the Replenishment Period, Unscheduled Principal Proceeds and Sale
Proceeds of Credit Risk Securities and Spread Appreciated Securities, along
with all other Principal Proceeds, must be applied to pay the principal of the
Notes in accordance with the Priority of Payments.


(b)      Within ten (10) Business
Days of purchasing each Substitute Collateral Debt Security, the Collateral
Manager shall deliver to each Rating Agency a comprehensive set of asset and
underwriting materials in form and substance acceptable to the Rating Agencies
(the “Reinvestment Asset Information”) describing such Substitute
Collateral Debt Security.  After
receiving the Reinvestment Asset Information, a Rating Agency may, in the case
of S&P and Moody’s, provide an estimated rating to the Collateral Manager
necessary to confirm whether a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test or an
S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure has occurred.


(c)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, within 60 days of finding a Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure (a “Moody’s Post-Acquisition
Failure”), the Collateral Manager shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to come into


 


237





















 


compliance with
the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test to the extent that the Collateral
Manager believes it is in the best interest of the Noteholders by (i) directing
and assisting the Trustee to sell the Substitute Collateral Debt Security that
caused the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, at a price at least equal to the
price paid by the Issuer for the Substitute Collateral Debt Security, plus any
fees and expenses attributable to such sale, (ii) instructing and assisting the
Trustee to sell any other Collateral Debt Securities (provided that the sale
price must be at a price at least equal to the price paid by the Issuer for the
Collateral Debt Security, plus any fees and expenses attributable to such sale)
and/or (iii) instructing and assisting the Trustee to purchase additional
Substitute Collateral Debt Securities (subject to the Replenishment Criteria)
that ultimately would result in satisfaction of the Moody’s Post-Acquisition
Compliance Test.  Following a Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Failure, until such time as the Moody’s Post-Acquisition
Compliance Test is satisfied, the Collateral Manager may purchase a Substitute
Collateral Debt Security only if it has a Moody’s Rating; provided, however,
if the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is not satisfied within sixty
(60) days of a finding of a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, each Collateral
Debt Security acquired must have a Moody’s Rating until such time as the Rating
Agency Condition with respect to Moody’s has been satisfied.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is not satisfied within 120 days of a finding
of a Moody’s Post-Acquisition Failure, each Collateral Debt Security thereafter
acquired must have a Moody’s Rating regardless of whether the Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is satisfied. 
In no circumstances following the failure to meet a Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test within 120 days of a finding of a Moody’s
Post-Acquisition Failure may a Collateral Debt Security be acquired without a
Moody’s Rating.


(d)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, within 60 days of finding an S&P
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure (an “S&P Post-Acquisition
Failure”), the Collateral Manager may (i) direct and assist the Trustee in
selling the Substitute Collateral Debt Security that caused the S&P
Post-Acquisition Failure, (ii) instruct and assist the Trustee to sell any
other Collateral Debt Securities and/or (iii) instruct and assist the Trustee
to purchase additional Substitute Collateral Debt Securities (subject to the
Replenishment Criteria) that ultimately would result in satisfaction of the
S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test. 
Until such time as the S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test is
satisfied, the Collateral Manager may purchase a Substitute Collateral Debt
Security only if it has an S&P Rating.


(e)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, within 60 days of finding a Fitch
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test failure (a “Fitch Post-Acquisition Failure”),
the Collateral Manager may (i) direct and assist the Trustee in selling the
Substitute Collateral Debt Security that caused the Fitch Post-Acquisition
Failure, (ii) instruct and assist the Trustee to sell any other Collateral Debt
Securities and/or (iii) instruct and assist the Trustee to purchase additional
Substitute Collateral Debt Securities (subject to the Replenishment Criteria)
that ultimately would result in satisfaction of the Fitch Post-Acquisition
Compliance Test.


(f)       Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions, (i) Cash on deposit in the Collection Accounts may be
invested in Eligible Investments, pending investment in Substitute Collateral
Debt Securities and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be


 


238





















 


continuing, no
Substitute Collateral Debt Security may be acquired unless it was the subject
of a commitment entered into by the Issuer prior to the occurrence of such
Event of Default.


(g)      Subject to the
limitations set forth in this Section 12.2, no more than 20% of the
Aggregate Collateral Balance as of the Closing Date shall be purchased by the
Issuer pending satisfaction of any of the Moody’s Post-Acquisition Compliance
Test, the S&P Post-Acquisition Compliance Test and the Fitch
Post-Acquisition Compliance Test.


Section 12.3           Conditions
Applicable to all Transactions Involving Sale or Grant.


(a)      Any transaction effected
after the Closing Date under this Article 12 or Section 10.10
shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of (i) the Collateral
Management Agreement or (ii) such other agreement as the Collateral Manager may
reasonably deem appropriate in accordance with advice of nationally recognized
U.S. bankruptcy counsel; provided that (1) the Collateral Manager shall
not direct the Trustee to acquire any Substitute Collateral Debt Security for
inclusion in the Assets from the Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates as
principal or to sell any Collateral Debt Security from the Assets to the
Collateral Manager or any of its Affiliates as principal unless the transaction
is effected in accordance with the Collateral Management Agreement or such
other agreement as the Collateral Manager may reasonably deem appropriate in
accordance with advice of nationally recognized U.S. bankruptcy counsel and (2)
the Collateral Manager shall not direct the Trustee to acquire any Substitute
Collateral Debt Security for inclusion in the Assets from any account or
portfolio for which the Collateral Manager serves as investment adviser or
direct the Trustee to sell any Collateral Debt Security to any account or
portfolio for which the Collateral Manager serves as investment adviser unless
such transactions comply with the requirements of any applicable laws.  The Trustee shall have no responsibility to
oversee compliance with this clause by the other parties.


(b)      Upon any Grant pursuant
to this Article 12, all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest to the
Pledged Obligation or Securities shall be Granted to the Trustee pursuant to
this Indenture, such Pledged Obligation or Securities shall be registered in
the name of the Trustee, and, if applicable, the Trustee shall receive such
Pledged Collateral Debt Security or Securities. 
The Trustee shall also receive, not later than the date of delivery of
any Collateral Debt Security delivered after the Closing Date, an Officer’s Certificate
of the Collateral Manager certifying that, as of the date of such Grant, such
Grant complies with the applicable conditions of and is permitted by this Article
12 (and setting forth, to the extent appropriate, calculations in
reasonable detail necessary to determine such compliance).


(c)      Notwithstanding anything
contained in this Article 12 to the contrary, the Issuer shall, subject
to this Section 12.3(c), have the right to effect any transaction which
has been consented to (i) by the Holders of Notes evidencing 100% of the
Aggregate Outstanding Amount of each and every Class of Notes (or if there are
no Notes Outstanding, 100% of the Preferred Shares) and (ii) each Hedge
Counterparty, and of which each Rating Agency has been notified.


 


239





















 


Section 12.4           Sale
of Collateral Debt Securities with respect to an Auction Call Redemption.


(a)      Pre-Auction Process.


(i)       Each Auction will occur on the Business
Day that is at least 13 Business Days prior to the proposed Auction Call
Redemption Date (such date, the “Auction
Date”).


(ii)      The Collateral Manager shall initiate the
Auction Procedures at least 24 Business Days before the proposed Auction Call
Redemption Date by:  (a) preparing a list
of Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments
(including CUSIP Number, if any, par amount and issuer name for each Collateral
Debt Security and any applicable Eligible Investment); (b) deriving a list of
not less than three qualified bidders (the “Listed Bidders”) and requesting from each Listed
Bidder bids by the applicable Auction Date; and (c) notifying the Trustee of
the list of Listed Bidders (the “List”).


(iii)     The Collateral Manager shall deliver a
general solicitation package to the Listed Bidders consisting of:  (a) a form of a purchase agreement (“Auction Purchase Agreement”)
provided to the Trustee by the Collateral Manager (which shall provide that (I)
upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent therein, the purchaser is
irrevocably obligated to purchase, and the Issuer is irrevocably obligated to
sell, the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments on
the date and on the terms stated therein, (II) each bidder may tender a
separate bid for one or more Collateral Debt Securities or any applicable
Eligible Investments in an Auction, (III) if the Collateral Debt Securities and
any applicable Eligible Investments are to be sold to different bidders, that
the consummation of the purchase of all Collateral Debt Securities and any
applicable Eligible Investments must occur simultaneously and that the closing
of each purchase is conditional on the closing of the other purchases, (IV) if
for any reason whatsoever the Trustee has not received, by a specified Business
Day (which shall be more than ten Business Days before the proposed Auction
Call Redemption Date), payment in full in immediately available funds of the
purchase price for all Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible
Investments, the obligations of the parties shall terminate and the Issuer
shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever and (V) any prospective
purchasers will be subject to the “limited recourse” and “non-petition”
provisions set forth in this Indenture); (b) the minimum aggregate Cash
purchase price (which shall be determined by the Collateral Manager as the
Total Auction Call Redemption Price); (c) the list of Collateral Debt
Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments; (d) a formal bid sheet
(which will permit a bidder to bid for all of the Collateral Debt Securities
and any applicable Eligible Investments or separately for any one or more (but
not all) Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments and
will include a representation from the bidder that it is eligible to purchase
all of the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments
or any one or more (but not all) Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable
Eligible Investments) to be provided to the Trustee by the Collateral Manager;
(e) a detailed timetable; and (f) copies of all transfer documents provided to
the Trustee by the


 


240





















 


Collateral Manager
(including transfer certificates and subscription agreements which a bidder
must execute pursuant to the underlying instruments and a list of the
requirements which the bidder must satisfy under the underlying instruments
(i.e., QIB status, Qualified Purchaser status, etc.)).


(iv)    The Collateral Manager shall send
solicitation packages to all Listed Bidders on the List at least twenty (20)
Business Days before the proposed Auction Call Redemption Date.  The Listed Bidders shall be required to
submit any due diligence questions (or comments on the draft purchase
agreement) in writing to the Collateral Manager by a date specified in the
solicitation package.  The Collateral
Manager shall be required to answer all reasonable and relevant questions by
the date specified in the solicitation package and the Collateral Manager shall
distribute the questions and answers and the revised final Auction Purchase
Agreement to all Listed Bidders (with a copy to the Issuer and the Trustee).


(b)      Auction Process.


(i)       Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or
its Affiliates may, but shall not be required to, bid at the Auction.  The Collateral Manager and its Affiliates may
bid in the Auction if the Collateral Manager deems such bidding to be
appropriate but is not required to do so.


(ii)      On the second Business Day prior to the
Auction Date (the “Auction Bid
Date”), all bids will be due by facsimile at the offices of
the Trustee by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, with the winning bidder or
bidders to be notified by 2:00 p.m. New York City time.  All bids from Listed Bidders on the List will
be due on the bid sheet contained in the solicitation package.  Each bid shall be for the purchase and
delivery to one purchaser (i) of all (but not less than all) of the Collateral
Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments or (ii) of one or more
(but not all) of the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible
Investments.


(iii)     Unless the Trustee receives (A) at least
one bid from a Listed Bidder to purchase all of the Collateral Debt Securities
and any applicable Eligible Investments or (B) receives bids from one or more
Listed Bidders (to purchase one or more (but not all) Collateral Debt
Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments) for all Collateral Debt
Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments in the aggregate, the
Trustee will decline to consummate the sale.


(iv)    Subject to clause (iii) above, with the
advice of the Collateral Manager, the Trustee shall select the bid or bids
which result in the Highest Auction Price from one or more Listed Bidders (in
excess of the specified minimum purchase price).  “Highest Auction Price” means the
higher of (i) the highest price bid by any Listed Bidder for all of the
Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments or (ii) the
sum of the highest prices bid by one or more Listed Bidders (for one or more
(but not all) Collateral Debt Securities or any applicable Eligible
Investments) for all Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible
Investments in the aggregate.  In each
case, the price bid by a Listed Bidder will be the dollar amount which the
Collateral Manager


 


241





















 


certifies to the
Trustee based on the Collateral Manager’s review of the bids, which
certification shall be binding and conclusive.


(v)     Upon notification to the winning bidder or
bidders, the winning bidder (or, if the Highest Auction Price requires the sale
of the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments to
more than one bidder, each winning bidder) will be required to deliver to the
Trustee a signed counterpart of the Auction Purchase Agreement no later than
4:00 p.m. New York City time on the Auction Date.  The winning bidder (or, if the Highest
Auction Price requires the sale of the Collateral Debt Securities and any
applicable Eligible Investments to more than one bidder, each winning bidder)
will make payment in full of the purchase price on the Business Day (the “Auction Purchase Closing Date”)
specified in the general solicitation package (which will be no later than ten
Business Days prior to the proposed Auction Call Redemption Date).  If a winning bidder so requests, the Trustee
and the Issuer will enter into a bailee letter in the form agreed upon by the
Trustee and the Collateral Manager to this Indenture (a “Bailee Letter”) with
each winning bidder and its designated bank (which bank will be subject to
approval by the Issuer or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer); provided
that such bank enters into an account control agreement with the Trustee and
the Issuer and has a long term debt rating of at least “BBB+” by S&P and
(if rated by Fitch) at least “BBB+” by Fitch and (if rated by Moody’s) at least
“A2” by Moody’s.  If the above
requirements are satisfied, the Trustee will deliver the Collateral Debt
Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments (to be sold to such bidder)
pursuant thereto to the bailee bank at least one Business Day prior to the
closing on the sale of the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable
Eligible Investments and accept payment of the purchase price pursuant
thereto.  If payment in full of the
purchase price is not made by the Auction Purchase Closing Date for any reason
whatsoever (or, if the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible
Investments are to be sold to more than one bidder, if any bidder fails to make
payment in full of the purchase price by the Auction Purchase Closing Date for
any reason whatsoever), the Issuer will decline to consummate the sale of all
Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments, the Trustee
and the Issuer will direct the bailee bank to return the Collateral Debt
Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments to the Trustee, and (if
notice of redemption has been given by the Trustee) the Trustee will give notice
(in accordance with the terms of this Indenture) that the Auction Call
Redemption will not occur.


(vi)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(b), the
Collateral Manager and/or any of its Affiliates, although it may not have been
the highest bidder, will have the option to purchase any one or more Collateral
Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments for a purchase price
equal to the highest bid therefor.


(c)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in this Section 12.4, but subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 7.18 and 9.2(b)
and the consummation of the Auction Call Redemption, at the election of the
Collateral Manager, in lieu of initiating or conducting any Auction, the
Collateral Manager and/or any of its Affiliates will have the option to
purchase all of the Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible
Investments that would otherwise be subject to such Auction for a price equal
to the


 


242





















 


Total Auction Call
Redemption Price.  Such purchase of
Collateral Debt Securities and any applicable Eligible Investments by the
Collateral Manager or its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 12.4(c)
shall be deemed to be a Successful Auction pursuant to this Indenture.


Section 12.5           Modifications
to Collateral Quality Tests, Par Value Coverage Tests or Special Amortization.


In the event any of the
Rating Agencies modifies the definitions or calculations relating to (i) the
method of calculating any of its respective Collateral Quality Tests (a “Collateral
Quality Test Modification”), (ii) any of the Par Value Coverage Tests (a “Par
Value Coverage Test Modification”) or (iii) its requirements for pro rata “special amortizations” (a “Pro Rata Special
Amortization Modification”), in either case in order to correspond with
published changes in the guidelines, methodology or standards established by
such Rating Agency, the Issuer may, but is under no obligation solely as a
result of this Section 12.5 to, incorporate corresponding changes into
this Indenture by an amendment hereto without the consent of the Holders of the
Notes (except as provided below) (but with written notice to the Noteholders)
or the Preferred Shares if (x)(1) in the case of a Collateral Quality Test
Modification, the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to the
Rating Agency that made such modification or (2) in the case of a Par Value
Coverage Test Modification or a Pro Rata Special Amortization Modification, the
Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to each Rating Agency then
rating the Notes and (y) written notice of such modification is delivered by
the Collateral Manager to the Trustee and by the Trustee to the Holders of the
Notes and Preferred Shares (which notice may be included in the next regularly
scheduled report to Noteholders).  Any
such Collateral Quality Test Modification, Par Value Coverage Test Modification
or Pro Rata Special Amortization Modification, as the case may be, shall be
effected without execution of a supplemental indenture; provided, however,
that such amendment shall be (i) evidenced by a written instrument executed and
delivered by each of the Co-Issuers and the Collateral Manager and delivered to
the Trustee, (ii) accompanied by delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of (A)
an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer certifying that such amendment has been
made pursuant to and in compliance with this Section 12.5 and (B) if
requested by the Trustee, an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is
authorized or permitted by this Section 12.5 and that all applicable
conditions precedent under this Section 12.5 have been satisfied, on
which such Officer’s Certificate or such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of
Counsel, as the case may be, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the
Class A-1 Notes and/or the Class A-2 Notes are the Controlling Class, the
Issuer shall not make any such change without obtaining the consent of a
Majority of the Controlling Class (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld); provided that, if the Holders of the Controlling Class do not
object to such change within seven (7) days after notice thereof if given, such
Holders shall be deemed to have consented to such change.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
amendment reasonably determined by the Trustee to be unduly burdensome to the
Trustee shall not take effect without the Trustee’s express written consent.

MISCELLANEOUS


Section 14.1           Form
of Documents Delivered to the Trustee.


In any case where several
matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any
specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or
covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified
or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion
with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other
matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters
in one or several documents.


Any certificate or
opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer may be based,
insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or
representations by, counsel, unless such Authorized Officer knows, or in the
exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or
representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or
opinion is based are erroneous.  Any such
certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or Opinion
of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a
certificate or opinion of, or representations by, the Issuer, the Co-Issuer,
the Collateral Manager or any other Person, stating that the information with
respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Collateral Manager or such other Person, unless such Authorized
Officer of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer or such counsel knows that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous.  Any Opinion of Counsel may
also be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or
opinion of, or representations by, an Authorized Officer of the Issuer or the
Co-Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such matters is in the
possession of the Issuer or the Co-Issuer, unless such counsel knows that the
certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are
erroneous.


Where any Person is
required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents,
certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture,
they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.


Whenever in this
Indenture it is provided that the absence of the occurrence and continuation of
a Default or Event of Default is a condition precedent to the taking of any
action by the Trustee at the request or direction of the Issuer or the
Co-Issuer, then notwithstanding that the satisfaction of such condition is a
condition precedent to the Issuer’s or the Co-Issuer’s rights to make such
request or direction, the Trustee shall be protected in acting in accordance
with such request or direction if it does not have knowledge of the occurrence
and continuation of such Default or Event of Default as provided in Section
6.1(e).

Section 14.4           Notices
to Noteholders; Waiver.


Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein, where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders
of Notes of any event,


(a)      such notice shall be
sufficiently given to Holders of Notes if in writing and mailed, first class
postage prepaid or electronically, to each Holder of a Note affected by such
event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Notes Register, not
earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date, prescribed
for the giving of such notice;


(b)      such notice shall be in
the English language;


(c)      such notice shall also be
provided to the Irish Paying Agent (for so long as any Notes are listed on the
Irish Stock Exchange); and


(d)      all reports or notices to
Preferred Shareholders shall be sufficiently given if provided in writing and
mailed, first class postage prepaid or electronically, to the Preferred Shares
Paying Agent.


 


254





















 


Notwithstanding clause
(a) above, a Holder of Notes may give the Trustee written notice that it is
requesting that notices to it be given by facsimile transmissions and stating
the facsimile number for such transmission. 
Thereafter, the Trustee shall give notices to such Holder by facsimile
transmission; provided  that if such
notice also requests that notices be given by mail, then such notice shall also
be given by mail in accordance with clause (a) above.


The Trustee shall deliver
to the Holders of the Notes any information or notice requested to be so
delivered by at least 25% of the Holders of any Class of Notes.


Neither the failure to
mail any notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular
Holder of a Note shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to
other Holders of Notes.  In case by
reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other
cause, it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such
notification to Holders of Notes shall be made with the approval of the Trustee
and shall constitute sufficient notification to such Holders of Notes for every
purpose hereunder.


Where this Indenture
provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any
Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and
such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed
with the Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the
validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.


In the event that, by
reason of the suspension of the regular mail service as a result of a strike,
work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of
any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to
any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall
be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of
such notice.


For so long as any Notes
are listed on the Irish Stock Exchange and the rules of such exchange so
require, all notices to Noteholders of such Notes will be published in the
Daily Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange.


Section 14.5           Effect
of Headings and Table of Contents.


The Article and Section
headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall
not affect the construction hereof.


Section 14.6           Successors
and Assigns.


All covenants and
agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall bind their
respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.


Section 14.7           Severability.


In case any provision in
this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the
validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby.

party beneficiaries), in each case, as applicable (it being understood that the
Collateral Management Agreement, the Hedge Agreements, the Insurance Agreement,
the Insurance Policy, the Preferred Shares Paying Agency Agreement and any
other such agreement may provide that such party’s right to receive payment
thereunder may be specified in this Indenture).


Section 14.9           Governing
Law.


THIS INDENTURE AND EACH
NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF STATE OF
NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN WITHOUT
REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

to Jurisdiction.


Each of the Issuer and

Co-Issuer irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any
action or proceeding by the mailing or delivery of copies of such process to it

7.2.  Each of the Issuer and the

of Co-Issuers.


Notwithstanding any other
terms of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement entered into between,
inter alios, the Issuer and the
Co-Issuer or otherwise, neither the Issuer nor the Co-Issuer shall have any
liability whatsoever to the Co-Issuer or the Issuer, respectively, under this
Indenture, the Notes, any such agreement or otherwise and, without prejudice to
the generality of the foregoing, neither the Issuer nor the Co-Issuer shall be
entitled to take any steps to enforce, or bring any action or proceeding, in
respect of this Indenture, the Notes, any such agreement or otherwise against
the other Co-Issuer or the Issuer, respectively.  In particular, neither the Issuer nor the
Co-Issuer shall be entitled to petition or take any other steps for the winding
up or bankruptcy of the Co-Issuer or the Issuer, respectively or shall have any
claim in respect of any assets of the Co-Issuer or the Issuer, respectively.

without limitation, as set forth in subsection (f) of this Section 15.1)
which license shall be and is hereby deemed to be automatically revoked upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder until such time, if any, as
such Event of Default is cured or waived.


(b)      The assignment made
hereby is executed as collateral security, and the execution and delivery
hereby shall not in any way impair or diminish the obligations of the Issuer
under the provisions of each of the Article 15 Agreements, nor shall any of the

(c)      Upon the retirement of
the Notes, the payment by the Issuer of all amounts payable under each Hedge

act shall be necessary to evidence such termination and reversion.


(d)      The Issuer represents
that it has not executed any assignment of any of the Article 15 Agreements
other than this collateral assignment.


 


258





















 


(e)      The Issuer agrees that

as the Trustee may specify.


(f)       The Issuer hereby

terminating the applicable Article 15 Agreement, (other than in respect of an
amendment or modification to cure any inconsistency, ambiguity or manifest
error) or selecting or consenting to a successor collateral manager, without
notifying each Rating Agency and without the prior written consent and written
confirmation of each Rating Agency that such amendment, modification or
termination will not cause its then-current ratings of the Notes to be reduced;


(v)     except as otherwise set forth herein and
therein (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 12 and 13
of the Collateral Management Agreement), the Collateral Manager shall continue
to serve as Collateral Manager under the Collateral Management Agreement,
notwithstanding that the Collateral Manager shall not have received amounts due

then available hereunder to pay such amounts pursuant to the Priority of
Payments.  The Collateral Manager agrees
not to cause the filing of a petition in bankruptcy against the Issuer for the
nonpayment of the fees or other amounts payable to


 


259

HEDGE
AGREEMENT AND OTHER PROVISIONS


Section 16.1           Issuer’s
Obligations under Hedge Agreement.


(a)      On the Closing Date and
thereafter, and on and after any date on which the Issuer enters into an
additional or replacement Hedge Agreement (including any related Hedge
Counterparty Credit Support), the Issuer as directed by the Collateral Manager
shall (i) require that each Hedge Counterparty thereto, or any third party
(including an Affiliate of such Hedge Counterparty) that (A) has absolutely and
unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of the Hedge Counterparty under the
related Hedge Agreement (with such form of guaranty as shall be satisfactory to
each Rating Agency then rating any Notes hereunder), (B) has entered into
credit intermediation arrangements in respect of the obligations of the Hedge
Counterparty under the related Hedge Agreement satisfactory to each Rating
Agency then rating any Notes hereunder, (C) is the issuing bank on one or more
letters of credit supporting the obligations of the Hedge Counterparty under
the related Hedge Agreement and that shall be reasonably acceptable to each
Rating Agency then rating any Notes hereunder or (D) has provided any other
additional credit support and such inclusion of additional credit support shall
have satisfied the Rating Agency Condition (any such third party, including an
Affiliate of such Hedge Counterparty, a “Hedge Counterparty Credit Support Provider”))
has, at the time the Hedge Agreement is executed, with respect to itself as an
issuer or with respect to its indebtedness, credit ratings at least equal to
the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Threshold Rating, and will maintain (at the
Hedge Counterparty’s or the Hedge Counterparty’s Credit Support Provider’s
expense), subject to Section 16.1(d) hereof, with respect to itself as
an issuer or with respect to its indebtedness, credit ratings at least equal to
the Hedge Counterparty Required Rating, by each Rating Agency then rating any
Notes hereunder, (ii) except with respect to a Form-Approved Liability Hedge,
satisfy the Rating Agency Condition with respect to any additional or
replacement Hedge Agreement and the related Hedge Counterparty and (iii) assign
and grant a security interest in such Hedge Agreement to the Trustee pursuant
to this Indenture.  Each Hedge Agreement
will provide that no amendment, modification or waiver in respect of such Hedge
Agreement, including any additional or replacement Hedge Agreement, will be
effective unless (A) evidenced by a writing executed by each party thereto, (B)
the Trustee has acknowledged its consent thereto in writing and (C) each Rating
Agency confirms that such amendment, modification or waiver will not cause the
reduction or withdrawal of its then-current rating on any Class of Notes.  Each Hedge Agreement entered into after the
Closing Date shall be on prevailing market terms and conditions.


(b)      The Trustee shall, on
behalf of the Issuer, pay amounts due to each Hedge Counterparty under the
related Hedge Agreements in accordance with Section 10.2(f), the
Priority of Payments and Section 16.1(g) hereof.


(c)      The notional amount of
certain Hedge Agreements providing for floating rate payments to the Issuer
will be calculated as a percentage of the principal amount of the


 


261





















 


Notes originally
anticipated to be Outstanding on each Payment Date based on certain
assumptions.  In accordance with the
terms of each Hedge Agreement, such notional amount will be reduced by the
Issuer (or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer) or each Hedge
Counterparty on each Payment Date to the extent that (i) the outstanding
principal amount of the Notes is less than the scheduled aggregate notional
amount of the related Hedge Agreements for such Payment Date and/or (ii) the
Net Outstanding Portfolio Balance is less than the scheduled aggregate notional
amount of the related Hedge Agreements for such Payment Date and/or (iii) in
the case of a Liability Hedge or other single asset-specific Hedge Agreement,
the outstanding Principal Balance of the related underlying Collateral Debt
Security is less than a percentage (as set forth in the related Hedge
Agreement) of the Scheduled material amount of the related Hedge Agreement; provided
that if any Notes are then Outstanding, the Trustee shall first have received
written evidence that the Rating Agency Condition with respect to Moody’s and
S&P has been satisfied with respect to such reduction other than as
scheduled.  Additionally, subject to
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition with respect to Moody’s and
S&P, a termination in part of a Hedge Agreement and a corresponding
reduction in the notional amount of the Hedge Agreement may occur in the event
of a Mandatory Redemption or Special Amortization of the Notes.  The Issuer’s remaining obligations in
accordance with the Priority of Payments will not be affected by any such
reduction.  Notwithstanding any right of
the Issuer to terminate each Hedge Agreement or related Hedge Counterparty
Credit Support upon the occurrence of a Termination Event or an Event of Default
(each as defined in each Hedge Agreement) or otherwise pursuant to a Hedge
Agreement, the Issuer shall not (x) terminate any Hedge Agreement or Hedge
Counterparty Credit Support or (y) cause the non-replacement of any terminated
Hedge Agreement, unless in each case the Issuer obtains a written confirmation
from Moody’s and S&P that such termination or non-replacement, as
applicable, would not cause such Rating Agency’s then-current rating on any
Class of Notes, as applicable, to be adversely qualified, reduced, suspended or
withdrawn.


(d)      Each Hedge Agreement
shall provide for termination or partial termination, and shall be capable of
being terminated or partially terminated, (i) by or on behalf of the Issuer
upon the failure of the related Hedge Counterparty to (a) post collateral under
a Hedge Counterparty Credit Support or provide alternate credit enhancement in
accordance with the related Hedge Agreement within the time period specified in
the related Hedge Agreement or (b) upon the failure of the related Hedge
Counterparty to make a Permitted Transfer (at the Hedge Counterparty’s sole
cost and expense) of all of its rights and obligations under the related Hedge
Agreement within the time period specified in the related Hedge Agreement,
after the failure of the related Hedge Counterparty (or any Hedge Counterparty
Credit Support Provider) to have the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Threshold
Ratings, (ii) by or on behalf of the Issuer upon the failure of the related
Hedge Counterparty to (a) post collateral under a Hedge Counterparty Credit
Support and (b) make a Permitted Transfer (at the related Hedge Counterparty’s
sole cost and expense) of all of its rights and obligations under the related
Hedge Agreement or provide alternative credit enhancement within the time
period specified in the related Hedge Agreement after the failure of the
related Hedge Counterparty (or any Hedge Counterparty Credit Support Provider)
to have the Hedge Counterparty Required Ratings, (iii) by the related Hedge
Counterparty, upon the failure of the Issuer to make, when due, any scheduled
periodic payments under the related Hedge Agreement, (iv) in whole or in part
as provided in the related Hedge Agreement, upon the final


 


262





















 


sale of the
Assets, an Auction Call Redemption, an Optional Redemption, a Clean-up Call or
a Tax Redemption, (v) in part as provided in the related Hedge Agreement,
subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, upon a Mandatory
Redemption or a Special Amortization, (vi) by the related Hedge Counterparty
upon any nonrescindable declaration by the Trustee that the Notes have become
due and payable and (vii) as otherwise expressly provided for in the related
Hedge Agreement.  The Issuer shall
satisfy the Rating Agency Condition with respect to any transfer of all of the
rights and obligations of any Hedge Counterparty under any Hedge Agreement.


(e)      The Trustee shall, prior
to the Closing Date, establish a single, segregated trust account with respect
to each Hedge Counterparty in the name of the Trustee, each designated as the “Hedge
Collateral Account,” which shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Noteholders and the applicable Hedge Counterparty, over which the Trustee shall
have exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal, and in which no Person
other than the Trustee, the related Hedge Counterparty and the Noteholders and
the applicable Hedge Counterparty shall have any legal or beneficial
interest.  The Trustee shall deposit all
collateral received from the related Hedge Counterparty under the related Hedge
Agreement in the related Hedge Collateral Account.  Any and all funds at any time on deposit in,
or otherwise to the credit of, each Hedge Collateral Account shall be held in
trust by the Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the related Hedge
Counterparty.  The only permitted
withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the
credit of, each Hedge Collateral Account shall be (i) for application to obligations
of the applicable Hedge Counterparty to the Issuer under the related Hedge
Agreement in accordance with the terms of such Hedge Agreement or (ii) to
return collateral to the applicable Hedge Counterparty when and as required by
the related Hedge Agreement, which the Trustee shall return to the applicable
Hedge Counterparty in accordance with the related Hedge Agreement.  Each Hedge Collateral Account shall remain at
all times with the Corporate Trust Office or a financial institution having a
long-term debt rating at least equal to “A-” or “A3,” as applicable, or a
short-term debt rating at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1” or “F1,” as applicable.


(f)       Upon the default by a
Hedge Counterparty in the payment when due of its obligations to the Issuer
under the related Hedge Agreement (following the expiration of any applicable
grace period), the Trustee shall forthwith provide facsimile notice thereof to
the Issuer, the Collateral Manager, each of the Rating Agencies and, if
applicable, any Hedge Counterparty Credit Support Provider.  When the Trustee becomes aware of such
default, the Trustee shall make a demand on the applicable Hedge Counterparty,
or any Hedge Counterparty Credit Support Provider, if applicable, for payment
forthwith.  The Trustee shall give notice
to the Noteholders and further notice to the Collateral Manager upon the
continuing failure by such Hedge Counterparty or any Hedge Counterparty Credit
Support Provider to perform its obligations during the two (2) Business Days
following a demand made by the Trustee on such Hedge Counterparty or any such
Hedge Counterparty Credit Support Provider.


(g)      Upon the termination or
partial termination of each Hedge Agreement, the Issuer at the direction of the
Collateral Manager and the Trustee shall take such commercially reasonable
actions (following the expiration of any applicable grace period and after the
expiration of the applicable time period set forth in the related Hedge
Agreement) to enforce


 


263





















 


the rights of the
Issuer and the Trustee thereunder as may be permitted by the terms of the Hedge
Agreement and consistent with the terms hereof, and shall apply the proceeds of
any such actions (including, without limitation, the proceeds of the liquidation
of any collateral pledged by or on behalf of each Hedge Counterparty) to enable
the Issuer to enter into additional or replacement Hedge Agreements within thirty (30) days of the expiration of
any such grace period and such applicable time period as set forth in the
related Hedge Agreement on substantially identical terms or on such other terms
subject to the Rating Agency Condition. 
The Trustee shall, promptly after the Closing Date, in respect of each
Hedge Counterparty, establish a single segregated trust account in the name of
the Trustee, each designated the “Hedge Termination Account,” which
shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Noteholders and each Hedge
Counterparty and over which the Trustee will have exclusive control and the
sole right of withdrawal, and in each of which no person other than the
Trustee, the Noteholders and the Hedge Counterparty will have any legal or
beneficial interest.  Each Hedge
Termination Account shall remain at all times with the Corporate Trust Office
or a financial institution having a long-term debt rating at least equal to “A-”
or “A3,” as applicable, or a short-term debt rating at least equal to “A-1,” “P-1”
or “F1,” as applicable.  Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Indenture to the contrary, any payments (other than
payments relating to past-due scheduled payments on a Hedge Agreement) received
by the Issuer or Trustee in connection with either (x) the termination (in
whole or in part) of a related Hedge Agreement or (y) the execution of an
additional or replacement Hedge Agreements shall be immediately transferred to
the Trustee for deposit into the related Hedge Termination Account.  Any costs attributable to entering into an
additional or replacement Hedge Agreements (other than in connection with a
Permitted Transfer) with respect to the related Hedge Counterparty shall be
paid from the related Hedge Termination Account, and any such amounts which are
payable but exceed the balance in the related Hedge Termination Account shall
be borne solely by the Issuer and shall constitute expenses payable under
clause (5) of Section 11.1(a)(i) hereof. 
Additionally, any amounts that are due and payable to a Hedge
Counterparty upon a termination of a Hedge Agreement shall be paid from any
amounts on deposit in the related Hedge Termination Account, and, to the extent
the amounts on deposit in such Hedge Termination Account are insufficient to
pay all such amounts, then such amounts will be payable in accordance with Sections
11.1(a)(i) and (ii) hereof. 
Any amounts remaining on deposit in a Hedge Termination Account related
to a Hedge Agreement following payment to the Hedge Counterparty shall be
transferred to the Principal Collection Account and shall constitute Principal
Proceeds.  If determining the amount payable
under the terminated Hedge Agreement, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager on
behalf of the Issuer shall seek quotations in accordance with the terms of the
related Hedge Agreement from reference market-makers whose ratings are at least
equal to the Hedge Counterparty Collateral Threshold Ratings.  In certain circumstances, a Hedge Agreement
may provide that the applicable Hedge Counterparty is responsible for
determining the amounts payable.  In
addition, the Issuer or the Collateral Manager on behalf of the Issuer shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the termination of the related
Hedge Agreement to become effective simultaneously with the effectiveness of a
replacement thereto, described as aforesaid.


(h)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth herein, for so long as any Class of Notes is Outstanding under this
Indenture and is rated by S&P, if any Hedge Counterparty falls below (A) a
short-term debt rating by S&P of at least “A-1” or (B) if such


 


264





















 


Hedge Counterparty
does not have a short-term debt rating by S&P, a rating of at least “A+” by
S&P, then such Hedge Counterparty shall, within ten (10)
days (or such other time period as may be specified in the related Hedge Agreement),
post collateral in respect of its obligations under the
related Hedge Agreement.


Section 16.2           Collateral
Debt Securities Purchase Agreements.


Following the Closing
Date, unless a Collateral Debt Securities Purchase Agreement is necessary to
comply with the provisions of this Indenture, the Issuer may acquire Collateral
Debt Securities in accordance with customary settlement procedures in the
relevant markets.  In any event, the
Issuer shall obtain from any seller of a Loan, all Underlying Instruments with
respect to each Collateral Debt Security and all Underlying Instruments related
to any related Senior Tranche that govern, directly or indirectly, the rights
and obligations of the owner of the Collateral Debt Security with respect to
the Underlying Term Loan, the Underlying Mortgaged Property and the Collateral
Debt Security and any certificate evidencing the Collateral Debt Security.


Section 16.3           Cure
Rights.


(a)      If the Issuer, as holder
of a Loan, has the right pursuant to the related Underlying Instruments to cure
an event of default on the Underlying Term Loan, the Collateral Manager may, in
accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard advance from its own
funds with respect to the Loan as a reimbursable Cure Advance, all such amounts
as are necessary to effect the timely cure of such event of default pursuant to
the terms of the related Underlying Instruments; provided  that (i) such advances may only be made (A) to the extent
that the Collateral Manager reasonably believes that such cash advances can be
repaid from future payments on the related underlying commercial mortgage loan
and in accordance with the Collateral Manager’s Servicing Standard and (B) if
the Collateral Manager receives written instruction from holders of at least a Majority
of the aggregate outstanding Notional Amount of the Preferred Shares with
respect thereto, and (ii) the particular advance would not, if made, constitute
a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance.  The
determination by the Collateral Manager that it has made a Nonrecoverable Cure
Advance or that any proposed Cure Advance, if made, would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Cure Advance shall be made by the Collateral Manager in its
reasonable good faith judgment in accordance with the Collateral Manager
Servicing Standard and shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered
promptly to the Trustee, setting forth the basis for such determination,
accompanied by an appraisal, if available, or an Independent broker’s opinion
of the value of the Underlying Mortgaged Property and any information that the
Collateral Manager may have obtained and that supports such determination.  The Collateral Manager will be entitled to
reimbursement from any subsequent payments or recoveries on each Collateral
Debt Security in respect of which it makes a Cure Advance in accordance with
the Priority of Payments if such reimbursement would not cause an Interest
Shortfall; provided that, if at any time the Collateral Manager shall
determine in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith and in accordance
with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard, that a Cure Advance previously
made is a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, the Collateral Manager shall be entitled
to reimbursements for such Nonrecoverable Cure Advance from subsequent payments
or collections with respect to the Assets on any Business Day during any
Interest Accrual Period


 


265





















 


prior to the
related Determination Date (or on a Payment Date prior to any payment of
interest on or principal of the Notes in accordance with the Priority of
Payments).  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Collateral Manager will be permitted (but not obligated) to
defer or otherwise structure the timing of recovery of any Nonrecoverable Cure
Advance in such manner as the Collateral Manager determines (subject to the
applicable provisions of the Asset Servicing Agreement) is in the best interest
of the Noteholders as a collective whole, which may include being reimbursed
for such Nonrecoverable Cure Advance in installments; provided that the
Collateral Manager will not be permitted to defer recovery of any
Nonrecoverable Cure Advance (or any portion thereof) on any Payment Date to the
extent that there are amounts available to be distributed to the Preferred
Shares Paying Agent for deposit into the Preferred Shares Distribution Account
on such Payment Date for distribution to the holders of the Preferred Shares in
accordance with the Priority of Payments without regard to such deferral.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral
Manager may terminate any such deferment at any time.


(b)      On the Business Day
preceding each Determination Date, the Collateral Manager may request by
Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, reimbursement for any (x) Cure
Advance or (y) Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, from any amounts received with
respect to the related Collateral Debt Security or the Assets,
respectively.  No later than the Payment
Date related to the Determination Date for which the Collateral Manager has
delivered an Officer’s Certificate requesting reimbursement of a Cure Advance
or a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, the Trustee shall transfer to the Collateral
Manager, by wire transfer to an account identified to the Trustee in writing,
the amount of such Cure Advance or Nonrecoverable Cure Advance, as applicable.


(c)      Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, the Collateral Manager shall not be required
to make any Cure Advance that it determines in its reasonable, good faith
judgment would constitute a Nonrecoverable Cure Advance as determined pursuant
to Section 16.3(a).


Section 16.4           Purchase
Right; Majority Preferred Shares Holder.


If the Issuer, as holder
of a Participation or B Note, has the right pursuant to the related Underlying
Instruments to purchase any related Senior Tranche(s), the Issuer may, and
shall if directed by the Majority Preferred Shares Holder, exercise such right,
if the Collateral Manager determines based on the Collateral Manager Servicing
Standard that the exercise of the option would be in the best interest of the
Noteholders, but may not exercise such right if the Collateral Manager
determines otherwise.  The Collateral
Manager shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying such
determination, accompanied by an Act of the Majority Preferred Shares Holder
directing the Issuer to exercise such right. 
In connection with the purchase of any such Senior Tranche(s), the
Issuer shall assign to the Majority Preferred Shares Holder or its designee all
of its right, title and interest in such Senior Tranche(s) in exchange for a
purchase price (such price and any other associated expense of such exercise to
be paid by the Majority Preferred Shares Holder) of the Senior Tranche(s) (or,
if the Underlying Instruments permit, the Issuer may assign the purchase right
to the Majority Preferred Shares Holder or its designee; otherwise the Majority
Preferred Shares Holder or its designee shall fund the purchase by the Issuer,
which shall then assign the Senior Tranche(s) to the Majority Preferred Shares


 


266

















 


Holder or its
designee) (the “Purchase Option Purchase Price”), which amount shall be
delivered by the Majority Preferred Shares Holder or its designee from its own
funds to or upon the instruction of the Collateral Manager in accordance with
terms of the Underlying Instruments related to the acquisition of such Senior
Tranche(s).  The Trustee or the Issuer
shall execute and deliver at the Majority Preferred Shares Holder’s direction
such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Majority Preferred
Shares Holder, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to transfer
title to the Majority Preferred Shares Holder or its designee of the Senior
Tranche(s) and the Trustee shall have no responsibility with regard to such
Senior Tranche(s).  As long as the Issuer
owns the related Collateral Debt Security, the Issuer shall not exercise any
purchase rights with respect to a Participation or B Note that is a pari passu interest relative to another
Participation or B Note related to the same mortgage loan; provided, however, that the
Collateral Manager may (in accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing
Standard) assign such right to third parties to the extent that it is able to
do so pursuant to the terms of the related Underlying Instruments.


Section 16.5           Representations
and Warranties Related to Subsequent Collateral Debt Securities.


(a)      If the Collateral Debt
Security is a Subsequent Collateral Debt Security, upon the acquisition of such
Subsequent Collateral Debt Security by the Issuer, the related seller has made
or assigned to the Issuer the following:


(i)       (A) representations and
warranties in form and substance substantially similar to the representations
and warranties set forth as Schedule I with respect to the Underlying
Term Loan and the Underlying Mortgaged Property (except with respect to
Mezzanine Loans) and (B) representations and warranties regarding good title,
no liens, no modifications, no defaults and valid assignment with respect to
the Loan itself; and


(ii)      in the case of a B Note, the
representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar to
the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule J with respect
to such B Note;


(iii)     in the case of a Participation, the
representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar to
the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule K with respect
to such Participation;


(iv)    in the case of a Mezzanine Loan, the
representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar to
the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule L with respect
to such Mezzanine Loan;


(v)     in the case of a Preferred Equity Security,
the representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar
to the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule N with
respect to such Preferred Equity Security;


(vi)    in the case of a CMBS Security the
representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar to
the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule M with respect
to such CMBS Security; and


 


267





















 


(vii)   in the case of a Rake Bond, the
representations and warranties in form and substance substantially similar to
the representations and warranties set forth as Schedule M with respect
to such Rake Bond;


(b)      The representations and
warranties in Section 16.5(a) with respect to the acquisition of a
Subsequent Collateral Debt Security may be subject to any modification,
limitation or qualification that the Collateral Manager determines to be
acceptable in accordance with the Collateral Manager Servicing Standard; provided
that the Collateral Manager will provide each Rating Agency with a report
attached to each Monthly Report identifying each such modification, exception,
limitation or qualification received with respect to the acquisition of any
Subsequent Collateral Debt Security during the period covered by the Monthly
Report, which report may contain explanations by the Collateral Manager as to
its determinations.


(c)      The Issuer shall obtain a
covenant from the Person making any representation or warranty to the Issuer
pursuant to Section 16.5(a) that such Person shall repurchase the
related Collateral Debt Security if any such representation or warranty is
breached (but only after the expiration of any permitted cure periods and
failure to cure such breach).  The
purchase price for any Collateral Debt Security repurchased (the “Repurchase
Price”) shall be a price equal to the sum of the following (in each case,
without duplication) as of the date of such repurchase: (i) the outstanding
principal amount thereof, plus (ii)
accrued and unpaid interest on such Collateral Debt Security, plus (iii) any unreimbursed advances, plus
(iv) accrued and unpaid interest on advances on the Collateral Debt Security, plus (v) any reasonable costs and expenses (including, but
not limited to, the cost of any enforcement action, incurred by the Issuer or
the Trustee in connection with any such purchase by a seller).


Section 16.6           Operating
Advisor; Additional Debt.


If the Issuer, as holder
of a B Note, a Participation, a Preferred Equity Security or a Mezzanine Loan,
has the right pursuant to the related Underlying Instruments to appoint the
operating advisor, directing holder or Person serving a similar function under
the Underlying Instruments, each of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Collateral
Manager shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary to appoint the
Collateral Manager to such position.  If
the Issuer, as holder of a B Note, a Participation or a Mezzanine Loan, has the
right pursuant to the related Underlying Instruments to consent to the related
borrower incurring any additional debt, such consent will be subject to
satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each
jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect
the validity and enforceability of this Indenture to perform its duties under
this Indenture.


(b)      Any Person into which the
Advancing Agent may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger or consolidation to which the Advancing Agent shall be a party,

Agent shall have no effect on the Trustee’s obligations under Section 10.7,
which obligations shall continue pursuant to the terms of Section 10.7).


Section 17.3           Limitation
on Liability of the Advancing Agent and Others.

under any liability for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of
any action in good faith pursuant to this Indenture, or for errors in judgment;

Issuer pursuant to the priorities set forth in Section 11.1(a) and held
harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any
legal action relating to this Indenture or the Notes, other than any loss,
liability or expense (i) specifically required to be borne by the Advancing
Agent pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise incidental to the performance
of obligations and duties hereunder (except as any such loss, liability or
expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Indenture) or (ii)
incurred by reason of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made
herein, any misfeasance, bad faith or negligence by the Advancing Agent in the
performance of or negligent disregard of, obligations or duties hereunder or
any violation of any state or federal securities law.

jurisdiction where the Advancing Agent’s ownership or lease of property or the
conduct of the Advancing Agent’s business requires, or the performance of this
Indenture would require, such qualification, except for failures to be so
qualified that would not in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the
business, operations, assets or financial condition of the Advancing Agent or
the ability of the Advancing Agent to perform its obligations under, or on the
validity or enforceability of, the provisions of this Indenture applicable to
the Advancing Agent;


(b)      the Advancing Agent has
full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Indenture; this
Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Advancing
Agent and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Advancing
Agent, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, except that
the enforceability hereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to creditors’ rights and (ii) general principles of equity (regardless
of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law);


(c)      neither the execution and
delivery of this Indenture nor the performance by the Advancing Agent of its
duties hereunder conflicts with or will violate or result in a breach or
violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitutes a default under:
(i) the Certificate of Formation and limited liability company agreement of the
Advancing Agent, (ii) the terms of any indenture, contract, lease, mortgage,
deed of trust, note agreement or other evidence of indebtedness or other
agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which the Advancing
Agent is a party or is bound, (iii) any law, decree, order, rule or regulation
applicable to the Advancing Agent of any court or regulatory, administrative or
governmental agency, body or authority or arbitrator having jurisdiction over the
Advancing Agent or its properties, and which would have, in the case of any of
(i), (ii) or (iii) of this subsection (c), either individually or in the
aggregate, a material adverse effect on the


 


270





















 


business,
operations, assets or financial condition of the Advancing Agent or the ability
of the Advancing Agent to perform its obligations under this Indenture;


(d)      no litigation is pending
or, to the best of the Advancing Agent’s knowledge, threatened, against the
Advancing Agent that would materially and adversely affect the execution,
delivery or enforceability of this Indenture or the ability of the Advancing
Agent to perform any of its obligations under this Indenture in accordance with
the terms hereof; and


(e)      no consent, approval,
authorization or order of or declaration or filing with any government,
governmental instrumentality or court or other person is required for the

of appointment by the successor Advancing Agent under Section 17.6.


(b)      The Advancing Agent may
resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the
Co-Issuer, the Trustee, the Collateral Manager, each Hedge Counterparty, the Noteholders

be removed at any time by Act of 66 2/3% of the Preferred Shares upon written

fails to make an Interest Advance required by this Indenture with respect to a
Payment Date, the Trustee, in its capacity as Backup Advancing Agent, shall be
required to make such Interest Advance and shall be entitled to receive, in
consideration thereof, the Advancing Agent Fee (in lieu of the Backup Advancing
Agent Fee) in accordance with the Priority of Payments.


(e)      In addition, if the
Advancing Agent shall have failed, on more than two occasions prior to date on
which no Class A Notes or Class B Notes remain Outstanding, to make an Interest
Advance required by this Indenture, which failure, in each case, is not cured
by the remittance of the amount of such Interest Advance by the Advancing Agent
to the Trustee within thirty (30) days of such failure, such Advancing Agent
shall be deemed to have automatically (and without the need for any act on the
part of any Person) resigned as an advancing agent hereunder and the Trustee
shall automatically (and without the need for any act on the part of any
Person) assume the capacity of the successor Advancing Agent hereunder.  Thereafter, the Trustee shall be entitled to
receive, in consideration of becoming the successor Advancing Agent, the
Advancing Agent Fee (for so long as the Trustee acts as successor Advancing
Agent) in lieu of the Backup Advancing Agent Fee in accordance with the
Priority of Payments.


 


271





















 


(f)       If the Advancing Agent
shall resign or be removed, upon receiving such notice of resignation or
removal, the Issuer and the Co-Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor
advancing agent by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by an Authorized
Officer of the Issuer and an Authorized Officer of the Co-Issuer, one copy of
which shall be delivered to the Advancing Agent so resigning and one copy to
the successor Advancing Agent, together with a copy to each Noteholder, the
Trustee, each Hedge Counterparty and the Collateral Manager; provided  that such successor Advancing Agent shall be appointed only
subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition and upon the written
consent of a Majority of the Preferred Shares. 
If no successor Advancing Agent shall have been appointed and an
instrument of acceptance by a successor Advancing Agent shall not have been
delivered to the Advancing Agent within thirty (30) days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Advancing Agent, the Trustee or any
Preferred Shareholder, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a
successor Advancing Agent.


(g)      The Issuer and the
Co-Issuer shall give prompt notice of each resignation and each removal of the
Advancing Agent and each appointment of a successor Advancing Agent by mailing
written notice of such event by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each
Rating Agency, each Hedge Counterparty and to the Holders of the Notes as their
names and addresses appear in the Notes Register.


(h)      No resignation or removal
of the Advancing Agent and no appointment of a successor Advancing Agent shall

affect the rating on the Notes.
