(c) This Section 2.01(c) shall apply only to Global Term Notes deposited with or on behalf of the Depository.  The Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall, in accordance with Article II of this Indenture, authenticate and deliver initially one or more Global Term Notes that (i) shall be registered in the name of the Depository for such Global Term Note or Global Term Notes or the nominee of such Depository and (ii) shall be delivered by the Indenture Trustee to such Depository or pursuant to such Depository's instructions held by the Indenture Trustee, as custodian for the Depository.

Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.01, the registered Holder of a Global Term Note 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 Term Notes.  Upon receipt of notice from the Depository of the occurrence of the event specified in the first sentence of this Section 2.01(d), the Issuer shall use its best efforts to make arrangements with the Depository for the exchange of interests in the Global Term Notes for individual Certificated Term Notes, and cause the requested individual Certificated Term Notes to be executed and delivered to the Note Registrar in sufficient quantities and authenticated by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee for delivery to Noteholders.

Section 2.02.    Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.


(a) The Notes shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Issuer by any Authorized Officer of the Issuer. Notes bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the authorized officers of the Issuer shall be entitled to all benefits under this Indenture, subject to the following sentence, notwithstanding 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 such Notes. No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture, or be valid for any purpose, however, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Indenture Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.


(b) Upon the written request of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee shall and, at the election of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may appoint one or more agents (each an “ Authenticating Agent ”) with power to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication of Notes in connection with the transfers and exchanges under Sections 2.05 and 2.06, as fully to all intents and purposes as though each such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized by those Sections to authenticate the Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication of Notes by an Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be the authentication of Notes “by the Indenture Trustee.” The Indenture Trustee shall be the initial Authenticating Agent.


Any corporation, bank, trust company or association into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation, bank, trust company or association resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation, bank, trust company or association 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, bank, trust company or association.


Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer. The Indenture Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any

Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Issuer.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation or upon such a termination, the Indenture Trustee may, or at the direction of the Issuer shall, promptly appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, give written notice of such appointment to the Issuer and give notice of such appointment to the Noteholders. Upon the resignation or termination of the Authenticating Agent and prior to the appointment of a successor, the Indenture Trustee shall act as Authenticating Agent.


Each Authenticating Agent shall be entitled to all limitations on liability, rights of reimbursement and indemnities that the Indenture Trustee is entitled to hereunder as if it were the Indenture Trustee.


Section 2.03.    Acknowledgment of Receipt of the Receivables.


(a) Upon receipt by it of the Receivable Files with respect to the Initial Receivables and all other assets to be delivered to it in accordance with this Indenture and included in the Trust Estate on the Initial Funding Date, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Noteholders and acknowledge such receipt.  In each case, such receipt shall be in good faith and without notice of any adverse claim.  The Indenture Trustee declares that it will hold such documents and the other documents received by it that constitute portions of the Receivables Files received after the Initial Funding Date, and that it will hold all assets included in the Trust Estate, on behalf of all present and future Secured Parties.


(b) The Indenture Trustee shall not be under any duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any of the documents, instruments, certificates or other papers relating to the Receivables delivered to it to determine that the same are valid, legal, effective, genuine, enforceable, in recordable form if recordation is required, sufficient or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.


The Indenture Trustee shall not assign, sell, dispose of or transfer any interest in the Receivables or any other asset constituting the Trust Estate (except as expressly provided herein) or knowingly permit the Receivables or any other asset constituting the Trust Estate to be subjected to any lien (other than Permitted Liens), claim or encumbrance arising by, through or under the Indenture Trustee or any Person claiming by, through or under the Indenture Trustee.


Section 2.04.    The Notes Generally.

(b) Each Note of a Class shall rank pari passu with each other Note of such Class and be equally and ratably secured by the Trust Estate. All Notes shall be substantially identical except as otherwise to denominations and as expressly permitted in this Indenture.


(c) This Indenture shall evidence a continuing lien on and security interest in the Trust Estate to secure the full payment of the principal, interest and other amounts on all the Notes, which (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) shall in all respects be equally and ratably secured hereby without preference, priority or distinction on account of the actual time or times of the authentication and delivery of such Notes.


Section 2.05.    Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.


(a) At all times during the term of this Indenture, there shall be maintained at the office of a registrar appointed by the Issuer (the “ Note Registrar ”) a register (the “ Note Register ”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Note Registrar may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed (and hereby agrees to act in accordance with the terms hereof) as Note Registrar for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. The Indenture Trustee may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Issuer, any other bank or trust company to act a

s Note Registrar under such conditions as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe; provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities hereunder as Note Registrar by reason of such appointment. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor indenture trustee shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's duties as Note Registrar. The Issuer and the  Noteholders shall have the right to inspect the Note Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all reasonable times upon reasonable prior notice, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Note Registrar as to the information set forth in the Note Register.


(b) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Note or beneficial ownership interest therein shall be made unless the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall have received (i) either (x) the prior written consent of the Depositor (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (y) a certificate from the transferor that such Noteholder is transferring, selling, pledging or otherwise disposing of either (1) a participating interest in all or a portion of any Note or (2) such Note to a Person without a transfer or sale of its Commitment under the Note Purchase Agreement and (ii) a certificate from the prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto.  If a transfer of any Note or any beneficial ownership interest therein is made without the receipt by the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee of the prior written consent of the Depositor (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or certificate of the transferor and a certificate from the prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto, the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it and the Indenture Trustee receive (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) such items. None of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Notes under the 1933 Act or any other securities law.


(c) By acquiring a Note, each purchaser of a Variable Funding Note or a Certificated Term Note shall and, each purchaser of a Global Term Note will be deemed to, represent, warrant and covenant that either (i) it is not acquiring such Note with the assets of an employee benefit plan or plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (each, a “ Plan ”) or any other plan subject to a federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other law that is substantially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or (ii) the acquisition, holding and disposition of such Notes will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a nonexempt violation of any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other law that is substantially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Furthermore, by acquiring a Note, the Note Purchaser will be deemed to give the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer a binding instruction to enter into the Hedge Agreements and the transactions thereunder, and each transferee will, by the acquisition of such Note, be deemed to have given the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer a binding instruction to enter into transactions pursuant to the Hedge Agreements.


(d) If a Person is acquiring any Note or interest therein as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts, such Person shall be required to certify that it has (i) sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and (ii) full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties, certifications and agreements with respect to each such account as set forth in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2.05.


(e) Subject to the preceding provisions of this Section 2.05, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of a like aggregate Note Principal Balance.


(f) At the option of any Noteholder, its Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of authorized denominations of a like aggregate Note Principal Balance, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose.

egistrar or the Indenture Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.


(h) No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange of Notes or beneficial ownership interest therein, but the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes or beneficial ownership interests therein.


(i) All Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be physically canceled by the Note Registrar, and the Note Registrar shall dispose of such canceled Notes in accordance with its standard procedures.

(k) Subject to Section 9.07(b) of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall not permit a transfer of any Variable Funding Note unless such transfer, is consented to in writing by the Depositor (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, this Section 2.05(k) does not apply to the transfer of a participation interest of a Variable Funding Note or the transfer of all or a portion of a Variable Funding Note that does not include the Commitment of the related Note Purchaser under the Note Purchase Agreement.


Section 2.06.    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.


If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange therefor, a new Note of the same principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


If there shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction (including mutilation tantamount to destruction), loss or theft of any Note and the ownership thereof, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them, and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer or the Note Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of the same tenor and denomination registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.


Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.06, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar may require the payment by the Noteholder of an amount sufficient to pay or discharge any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Authenticating Agent, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee) in connection therewith.


Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.06 in lieu of any destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by any Person, and such new Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.


The provisions of this Section 2.06 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Upon written request of any Noteholder at the Noteholder's expense made for purposes of communicating with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture, the Note Registrar shall promptly furnish such Noteholder with a list of the other Variable Funding Noteholders and Term Noteholders of record identified in the Note Register at the time of the request. Every Noteholder, by receiving such access, agrees with the Note Registrar that the Note Registrar will not be held accountable in any way by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and addresses of any Noteholder regardless of the source from which such information was derived.


Section 2.08.    Persons Deemed Owners.


The Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and any agents of any of them may treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal, interest and other amounts in respect of such Note and for all other purposes, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any agents of any of them, shall be affected by notice to the contrary; provided, however, that the Depository, or its nominee, shall be deemed the owner of the Global Term Notes, and owners of beneficial interests in Global Term Notes will not be considered the owners of any Notes for the purpose of receiving notices.

(i) such Permitted Investments shall mature not later than one (1) Business Day prior to the next Payment Date or Funding Date, whichever is sooner (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of or is managed by the Indenture Trustee or its Affiliate, such Permitted Investment shall not mature later than the next Payment Date or Funding Date, whichever is sooner);


(ii) the securities purchased with the moneys in the Accounts shall be deemed to be funds deposited in the related Accounts;


(iii) each such Permitted Investment shall be made in the name of the Indenture Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Indenture Trustee under the Indenture Trustee's complete and exclusive dominion and control (or, if applicable law provides for perfection of pledges of an instrument not evidenced by a certificate or other instrument through registration of such pledge on books maintained by or on behalf of the issuer of such investment, a Permitted Investment may be made in such instrument notwithstanding that such instrument is not under the

dominion and control of the Indenture Trustee, provided that such pledge is so registered);


(iv) other than the investments described in the second parenthetical phrase in clause (iii) above, the Indenture Trustee shall have the sole control over such investment, the income thereon and the proceeds thereof;


(v) other than the investments described in the second parenthetical phrase in clause (iii) above, any certificate or other instrument evidencing such investment shall be delivered directly to the Indenture Trustee or its agent; and

Cash collateral posted by an applicable Hedge Provider in accordance with the terms and provisions of the credit support annex under the applicable Hedge Agreement shall be invested at the direction of the applicable Hedge Provider in Permitted Investments in accordance with the requirements of such Hedge Agreement. In the absence of written direction from the Agent, with respect to the Accounts other than the Posted Collateral Account, and from the Hedge Provider, with respect to the Posted Collateral Account, funds on deposit in the Accounts shall remain un-invested.  All amounts earned on Permitted Investments during the prior calendar month shall be deposited into the Note Payment Account on each Payment Date and shall be included in the Available Funds for such Payment Date.


(c)  Each of the Accounts shall remain at all times as Eligible Accounts.  In the event that any of the Accounts no longer qualifies as an Eligible Account under the definition thereof, the Issuer shall promptly, and in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days following such Account failing to qualify as an Eligible Account, direct the Indenture Trustee to remit all funds in such Account to a specified Eligible Account.

(e)  Upon the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall release to the Issuer all amounts, if any, held by it remaining as part of the Trust Estate.


Section 2.10.    Payments on the Notes.


(a) Subject to Section 2.10(b), the Issuer agrees to pay:


(i) prior to the Stated Maturity Date, on each Payment Date and any Redemption Date relating to a Total Redemption, interest on and principal of the Notes in the amounts and in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 2.10(c), and on each Redemption Date relating to a Partial Redemption, interest on and principal of the Notes in the amounts and in accordance with Section 2.16(a); and


(ii) on the Stated Maturity Date, the entire Note Principal Balance of the Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees, costs, expenses, indemnities and all other amounts then due and payable by Issuer (excluding contingent obligations) to the Agent, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders pursuant to this Indenture or any other Transaction Document.


Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment to any holder of a Note of interest, principal or other amounts, or any such payment set aside on the Final Payment Date for such Note as provided in Section 2.10(b), shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture.





---




(b) With respect to each Payment Date, any interest, principal and other amounts payable on the Variable Funding Notes and Certificated Term Notes shall be paid to the Person that is the registered holder thereof at the close of business on the related Record Date, and any interest, principal and other amounts payable on the Global Term Notes shall be distributed by the Indenture Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account maintained by the Depository or its nominee or, if a wire transfer cannot be effected, by a check in immediately available funds delivered to the Depository or its nominee; provided, however, that interest, principal and other amounts payable at the Final Payment Date of any Note shall be payable only against surrender thereof at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee. Payments of interest, principal and other amounts on the Notes shall be made on the applicable Payment Date other than the Final Payment Date, subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer to such account as such Noteholder shall designate by written instruction received by the Indenture Trustee not later than the Record Date related to the applicable Payment Date or otherwise by check mailed on or before the Payment Date to the Person entitled thereto at such Person's address appearing on the Note Register. The Indenture Trustee shall pay each Note in whole or in part as provided herein on its Final Payment Date in immediately available funds from funds in the Note Payment Account as promptly as possible after presentation to the Indenture Trustee of such Note at its Corporate Trust Office but shall initiate such payment no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of such presentation; provided, that such presentation has been made no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time. If presentation is made after 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any day, such presentation shall be deemed to have been made on the immediately succeeding Business Day.


Except as provided in the following sentence, if a Note is issued in exchange for any other Note during the period commencing at the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on any Record Date and ending before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related Payment Date, no interest, principal or other amounts will be payable on such Payment Date in respect of such new Note, but will be payable on such Payment Date only in respect of the prior Note. Interest, principal and other amounts payable on any Note issued in exchange for any other Note during the period commencing at the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on the Record Date immediately preceding the Final Payment Date for such Notes and ending on the Final Payment Date for such Notes, shall be payable to the Person that surrenders the new Note as provided in this Section 2.10(b).


All payments of interest, principal and other amounts made with respect to any Note of a Class will be allocated pro rata among the Outstanding Notes of such Class based on the Percentage Interest of that Note within such Class.  Monthly interest and principal with respect to the Notes shall be determined, allocated and paid in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture.


If any Note on which the final payment was due is not presented for payment on its Final Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee shall set aside such payment in a segregated account separate from the Note Payment Account but which constitutes an Eligible Account, and the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall act in accordance with Section 5.10 in respect of the unclaimed funds.


(c) On each Payment Date and any Redemption Date relating to a Total Redemption, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit into the Note Payment Account all funds on deposit in the Reimbursement Account and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 2.20, amounts from the Hedge Account and the Posted Collateral Account and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 2.15, amounts from the Reserve Account and, if applicable, any payments received from the Seller on an Option Purchase Date pursuant to Section 2.19 and any payments received from the Seller or its designee pursuant to Section 7.03(b) and withdraw from the Note Payment Account and apply the Available Funds for such Payment Date or Redemption Date, as applicable, for the following purposes a

(b) Absent manifest error, the Note Principal Balance of each Variable Funding Note as set forth in the notations made by the related Variable Funding Noteholder on such Variable Funding Note shall be binding upon the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer; provided, that failure by a Variable Funding Noteholder t

Section 2.15.     Reserve Account.


On or prior to the Initial Funding Date, the Issuer shall cause the Required Reserve Amount to be deposited into the Reserve Account.  The Indenture Trustee shall deposit in the Reserve Account (i) on each Payment Date the amount, if any, distributed for deposit in the Reserve Account pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(vi)  and (ii) on each Funding Date that is not a Payment Date, the Excess Amount, if any, in accordance with Section 2.10(d)(i).


If, on any Payment Date prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the Available Funds (calculated for this purposes without clause (iii) of the definition thereof) for such Payment Date are insufficient to pay the amounts required to be paid pursuant to clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.10(c) and, following the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event (assuming no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) the amounts required to be paid pursuant to clauses (viii) (A) and (viii)(B) of Section 2.10(c) and following the earlier to occur of an Event of Default or the Stated Maturity Date, to pay all amounts under clause (viii) of Section 2.10(c), the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw the amount of such shortfall from the Reserve Account and deposit the same into the Note Payment Account to be applied to the payment of such items.


Upon payment in full of all of the Issuer Obligations, the Indenture Trustee shall release all amounts remaining in the Reserve Account to or at the direction of the Issuer.


Section 2.16.    Redemption; Clean-up Call Option.


(a) The Notes shall be subject to optional redemption in whole (such redemption, a “ Total Redemption ”) or in part (such redemption, a “ Partial Redemption ”); provided, however, that (I) the Issuer shall not conduct a Partial Redemption of aggregate Note Principal Balances without the prior written consent of the Agent if (i) the cumulative amount of Note Principal Balances previously redeemed plus the amount of Note Principal Balances requested to be redeemed exceeds the lesser of (A) the product of 0.375 and the outstanding Note Principal Balance on the proposed Redemption Date and (B) $75,000,000 or (ii) such redemption would result in the occurrence of an Event of Default, an Early Amortization Event, a Securitization Trust Termination Event, a Servicer Termination Event, a Funding Interruption Event or a Discount Factor Reduction Event and (II) any Partial Redemption of Note Principal Balance of the Notes shall be applied pro rata among the Term Notes and the Variable Funding Notes.  The Issuer shall give written notice (a “ Redemption Notice ”) of its intent to redeem all or the Applicable Redemption Percentage of the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.16 to the Indenture Trustee (for subsequent distribution to the Noteholders), each Swap Provider and, to the extent the Agent's consent is not required to conduct such redemption, the Agent, at least 5 Business Days prior to the Redemption Date (which date shall be specified in such notice as the “ Redemption Date ”).  Each Redemption Notice shall include a list of Securitization Trusts the Receivables of which the Issuer desires to purchase on the related Redemption Date.  Following issuance of the Redemption Notice by the Issuer, the Issuer shall be required to purchase the entire Outstanding or the Applicable Redemption Percentage of Note Principal Balance of the Notes, as of the Redemption Date, for the Note Redemption Amount on such Redemption Date.  Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of a Note or any interest or rights under any Transaction Document, as applicable, hereby consents to the release of lien of this Indenture, in whole or in part, as applicable, upon the Issuer's deposit of the applicable Note Redemption Amount. On any Redemption Date relating to a Partial Redemption, the Indenture Trustee shall remit the applicable Note Redemption Amount as follows:  (a)  with respect to the amounts set forth under clauses (i) and (ii) of the applicable definition of Note Redemption Amount, pro rata, to the Variable Funding Noteholders (based on the Variable Funding Note Principal Balance) and to the Term Noteholders (based on the Term Note Principal Balance), and (b) with respect to the amounts set forth under clause (iii) of the a





---




pplicable definition of Note Redemption Amount, pro rata, to any Swap Providers based on the aggregate amounts owed to each such Swap Provider. Upon the Issuer's payment of the Note Redemption Amount with respect to a Partial Redemption, (i) the Indenture Trustee, acting on behalf of the Noteholders, shall release its lien with respect to all outstanding Receivables related to the Securitization Trusts specified in the applicable Redemption Notice and shall, at the direction of the Agent, execute a lien release or similar instrument with respect thereto, such instrument to be provided to the Indenture Trustee, and (ii) Schedules I through IV attached hereto shall be updated accordingly.  Upon the Issuer's payment of the Redemption Amount with respect to a Total Redemption, the Commitment of the Note Purchaser under Section 2.01 of the Note Purchase Agreement to purchase Additional Note Balances shall terminate.


(b) On any Payment Date following an Early Amortization Event (including clauses (a) and (n) under the definition thereof) on which the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes is less than or equal to 10% of the sum of (i) the aggregate of the Term Note Initial Principal Balance for the Term Notes, (ii) the balance of the Variable Funding Note as of the Closing Date and (iii) the aggregate of all Additional Note Balances purchased on or prior to such date pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement (the sum of (ii) and (iii) not to be greater than the Variable Funding Note Maximum Balance), the Agent may effect a put of the entire Outstanding Note Principal Balance of the Notes, as of the applicable Payment Date, to the Issuer by exercise of the Clean-up Call Option.  The Agent shall give written notice (a “ Clean-up Call Notice ”) of its intent to put the Notes pursuant to this Section 2.16(b) to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and each Swap Provider at least 30 days prior to the related Payment Date.  Upon exercise of the Clean-up Call Option by the Agent, the Issuer shall be required to purchase the entire Outstanding Note Principal Balance of the Notes, as of the applicable Payment Date, for the Note Redemption Amount on the applicable Payment Date (such Payment Date, the “ Clean-up Call Date ”).


(c) Unless otherwise agreed by the Agent, on the third Business Day prior to the applicable Redemption Date, the Clean-up Call Date or Stated Maturity Date, as applicable, the Issuer shall cause there to be deposited the Note Redemption Amount into the Note Payment Account.


(d)  On any Business Day during the Funding Period, the Variable Funding Notes may be subject to an optional paydown by the Issuer.  The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall give written notice to the Agent, each Hedge Provider and the Noteholders of its intent to paydown the Variable Funding Note Principal Balances at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such paydown shall occur (the “ Paydown Date ”).  The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall remit the paydown amount to the Note Payment Account, as applicable, and the Indenture Trustee shall withdraw such amounts and allocate such amounts to reduce the Variable Funding Note Principal Balance of the Variable Funding Notes on a pro rata basis after remitting any termination payments due to the Hedge Provider under the applicable Swap Agreement; provided, that, if the Paydown Date is a Payment Date, such paydown amount will be remitted in accordance with Section 2.10(c)(vii)(F) after all prior payments in accordance with Section 2.10(c) have been made and that the Variable Funding Note Principal Balance of the Notes used to calculate such payments pursuant to Section 2.10(c) shall be the Variable Funding Note Principal Balance prior to distribution of the paydown amount.  Notwithstanding any optional paydown as provided in this Section 2.16(d), the Commitment of the Holders of the Variable Funding Notes shall not be reduced.


Section 2.17.    Securities Accounts


(a)  The Issuer and the Indenture Trustee hereby appoint Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as securities intermediary (in such capacity, the “ Securities Intermediary ”) with respect to each of the Accounts.  The Security Entitlements and all Financial Assets credited to the Accounts, including without limitation all amounts, securities, investments, Financial Assets, investment property and other property from time to time deposited in or credited to such account and all proceeds thereof, held from time to time in the Accounts will continue to be held by the Securities Intermediary for the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties.  Upon the termination of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall inform the Securities Intermediary of such termination.  By acceptance of their Notes or interests therein, the Noteholders and all beneficial

owners of Notes shall be deemed to have appointed Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Securities Intermediary.  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. hereby accepts such appointment as Securities Intermediary.


(i)  With respect to any portion of the Trust Estate that is credited to the Accounts, the Securities Intermediary agrees that:


(A)  with respect to any portion of the Trust Estate that is held in deposit accounts, each such deposit account shall be subject to the security interest granted pursuant to this Indenture, and the Securities Intermediary shall comply with instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee directing dispositions of funds in the deposit accounts without further consent of the Issuer and otherwise shall be subject to the exclusive custody and control of the Securities Intermediary, and the Securities Intermediary shall have sole signature authority with respect thereto;


(B)  the sole assets permitted in the Accounts shall be those that the Securities Intermediary agrees to treat as Financial Assets;


(C)  any portion of the Trust Estate that is, or is treated as, a Financial Asset shall be physically delivered (accompanied by any required endorsements) to, or credited to an account in the name of, the Securities Intermediary or other eligible institution maintaining any Account in accordance with the Securities Intermediary's customary procedures such that the Securities Intermediary or such other institution establishes a Security Entitlement in favor of the Indenture Trustee with respect thereto over which the Securities Intermediary or such other institution has control; and


(D)  it will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer if any other Person claims that it has a property interest in a Financial Asset in any Account and that it is a violation of that Person's rights for anyone else to hold, transfer or deal with such Financial Asset.


(ii)  The Securities Intermediary hereby confirms that (A) each Account is an account to which Financial Assets are or may be credited, and the Securities Intermediary shall, subject to the terms of this Indenture, treat the Indenture Trustee as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise any Financial Asset credited to any Account, (B) any portion of the Trust Estate in respect of any Account will be promptly credited by the Securities Intermediary to such account, and (C) all securities or other property underlying any Financial Assets credited to any Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary, and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to any Account be registered in the name of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Seller, payable to the order of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Seller or specially endorsed to any of such Persons.


(iii)  If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive an Entitlement Order from the Indenture Trustee directing transfer or redemption of any Financial Asset relating to any Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such Entitlement Order without further consent by the Issuer, the Servicer, the Seller or any other Person.  If at any time the Indenture Trustee notifies the Securities Intermediary in writing that this Indenture has been discharged in accordance herewith, then thereafter if the Securities Intermediary shall receive any order from the Issuer directing transfer or redemption of any Financial Asset relating to any Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such Entitlement Order without further consent by the Indenture Trustee or any other Person.





---




(iv)  In the event that the Securities Intermediary has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any Account or any Financial Asset or Security Entitlement credited thereto, the Securities Intermediary hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Indenture Trustee.  The Financial Assets and Security Entitlements credited to the Accounts will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker's lien, or any other right in favor of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee in the case of the Accounts.


(v)  There are no other agreements entered into between the Securities Intermediary in such capacity, and the Securities Intermediary agrees that it will not enter into any agreement with, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Seller or any other Person with respect to any Account.  In the event of any conflict between this Indenture (or any provision of this Indenture) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Indenture shall prevail.


(vi)  The rights and powers granted herein to the Indenture Trustee have been granted in order to perfect its interest in the Accounts and the Security Entitlements to the Financial Assets credited thereto, and are powers coupled with an interest and will neither be affected by the bankruptcy of the Issuer, the Servicer or the Seller nor by the lapse of time.  The obligations of the Securities Intermediary hereunder shall continue in effect until the interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Accounts and in such Security Entitlements, has been terminated pursuant to the terms of this Indenture and the Indenture Trustee has notified the Securities Intermediary of such termination in writing.

(c)  None of the Securities Intermediary or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Securities Intermediary shall be under any liability to the Indenture Trustee or the Secured Parties for any action taken, or not taken, in good faith pursuant to this Indenture, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Securities Intermediary against any liability to the Indenture Trustee or the Secured Parties which would otherwise be imposed by reason of the Securities Intermediary's willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder.  The Securities Intermediary and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Securities Intermediary may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Securities Intermediary shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of such document.  The Issuer shall indemnify the Securities Intermediary for and hold it harmless against any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with this Indenture and carrying out it duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability, except in those cases where the Securities Intermediary has been guilty of bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct.  The foregoing indemnification shall survive any termination of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Securities Intermediary.

(d) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture 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 related Noteholder or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.


(e) In any proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such proceedings.

(g) All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered, subject to the payment priorities of Section 2.10.





Section 4.04.    Remedies.


If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, upon five (5) days' prior notice to each other Secured Party,  the Indenture Trustee may do one or more of the following:

Section 4.05.    Application of Money Collected.


Any money collected by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article IV shall be deposited in the Note Payment Account and, on each Payment Date, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10 hereof and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes, upon presentation and surrender of the Notes if fully paid.


Section 4.06.    Limitation on Suits.


Except as provided in Section 4.07, no Noteholder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:


(1)  such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;





---




(2)  the Controlling Class Majority Noteholders shall have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;


(3)  such Noteholder or Noteholders have offered to the Indenture Trustee adequate indemnity or security satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;


(4)  the Indenture Trustee for 60 days, after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity or security satisfactory to it, has failed to institute any such proceeding;


(5)  no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Controlling Class Majority Noteholders; and


(6)  an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself or themselves of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Noteholders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Noteholders. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, the Noteholders may exercise their rights under this Section 4.06 independently.


Section 4.07.    Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest.


Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, following the Stated Maturity Date, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payments of interest, principal and other amounts then due on such Note (subject to Section 2.10) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment (subject to Section 4.06), and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder, unless a non-payment has been cured pursuant to Section 4.02. The Issuer shall, however, be subject to only one consolidated lawsuit by the Noteholders, or by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, for any one cause of action arising under this Indenture or otherwise.


Section 4.08.    Restoration of Rights and Remedies.


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


Section 4.09.    Rights and Remedies Cumulative.


Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.06, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture 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 4.10    Delay or Omission Not Waiver.





---




No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee, or 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. Every right and remedy given by this Indenture or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders, as the case may be.


Section 4.11.Control by Noteholders.


The Majority Noteholders shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture or involve the Indenture Trustee in personal liability; provided, further, that the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Noteholders will not be required to provide, and the Indenture Trustee will not be required to obtain, a Tax Opinion in the case of a direction by the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee, following an Event of Default, to realize upon the Trust Estate by liquidating the Collateral or otherwise.


Section 4.12.    Waiver of Past Defaults.


Prior to acceleration or the Stated Maturity Date of the Notes, the Controlling Class Required Noteholders may, on behalf of the Noteholders of all the Notes, waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default:


(1)  in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note, which waiver shall require the waiver by Noteholders holding 100% in aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Outstanding Notes affected;


(2)  in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article VIII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected, which waiver shall require the waiver by each Holder of an Outstanding Note affected;


(3)  depriving the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder of a lien or the benefit of a lien, as the case may be, upon any part of the Trust Estate, which waiver shall require the consent of the Indenture Trustee or such Noteholder, as the case may be; or


(4)  depriving the Indenture Trustee of any fee, reimbursement for any expense incurred, or any indemnification to which the Indenture Trustee is entitled, which waiver shall require the consent of the Indenture Trustee.


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 thereon; provided , that no such waiver shall restore any Hedge Agreement which has terminated pursuant to its terms. Any costs or expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with such acceleration and prior to such waiver shall be reimbursable to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with Section 2.10(c).


Section 4.13.    Undertaking for Costs.


All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder 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 Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture 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 and expenses based on time expended, 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 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Issuer, or to any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the aggregate at least 25% in aggregate Note Principal Balance of Outstanding Notes or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the Stated Maturity Date of such Note.


Section 4.14    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.


The 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 to 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 or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the exercise of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee and any Hedge Provider, but will suffer and permit the exercise of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.


Section 4.15.    Sale of Trust Estate.


(a) The power to effect any public or private sale of any portion of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until either the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture with respect thereto shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any such sale but such waiver does not apply to any amounts to which the Indenture Trustee is otherwise entitled under Section 5.04 of this Indenture.


(b) The Indenture Trustee shall not sell the Trust Estate, or any portion thereof, unless:


(i) the Agent, with the consent and on behalf of the Controlling Class Required Noteholders and each Swap Provider consents to, or directs the Indenture Trustee to make, such sale; or


(ii) the proceeds of such sale would be not less than the entire amount which would be payable to the Holders of the Notes, in full payment thereof, and all amounts payable including termination payments, to all Hedge Providers in accordance with Section 4.05, on any date following the date of such sale, together with all other amounts due under this Indenture.


• The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.15 shall not preclude or limit the ability of the Indenture Trustee to purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate at any sale, public or private, and the purchase by the Indenture Trustee of all or any portion of the Trust Estate at any sale shall not be deemed a sale or disposition thereof for purposes of this Section 4.15(b).


(c) Unless the Holders of all Outstanding Notes have otherwise consented or directed the Indenture Trustee, at any sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate at which a minimum bid equal to or greater than the amount described in paragraph (ii) of subsection (b) of this Section 4.15 has not been established by the Indenture Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or greater than such amount, the Indenture Trustee shall in accordance with paragraph (ii) of subsection (d) of this Section 4.15 bid an amount at least $1.00 more than the highest other bid in order to preserve the Trust Estate.


(d) In connection with a sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate:


(i) any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without further accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money therefor, deliver any





---




Outstanding Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon in accordance with Section 2.10(c), shall be returned to the Holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;


(ii) the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property offered for sale in connection with any sale thereof, and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting the gross sale price against the sum of (A) the amount which would be distributable to the Holders of the Notes as a result of such sale in accordance with Section 4.05 on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such sale and (B) the expenses of the sale and of any Proceedings in connection therewith which are reimbursable to it, without being required to produce the Notes in order to complete any such sale or in order for the net sale price to be credited against such Notes, and any property so acquired by the Indenture Trustee shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;


(iii) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver, without recourse, an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof;


(iv) the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey the Issuer's interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such sale; and


(v) no purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.


Section 4.16.    Action on Notes.


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





ARTICLE V


THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE





Section 5.01.    Certain Duties and Responsibilities.


The Issuer hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Indenture Trustee and any Responsible Officer thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in place and stead of the Issuer and in the name of the Issuer or in its own name or in the name of a nominee, from time to time in the Indenture Trustee's discretion, for the purpose of enforcing the rights, powers and remedies of the Issuer under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Indenture and the Receivables Purchase Agreement, all as set forth in this Indenture.


(a) The rights, duties and liabilities of the Indenture Trustee in respect of this Indenture shall be as follows:


(i) The Indenture Trustee shall have the full power and authority to do all things not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture that it may deem advisable in order to enforce the provisions hereof or to take any action with respect to a default or an Event of Default hereunder, or to institute, appear in or defend any suit or other proceeding with respect hereto, or to protect the





---




interests of the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall not be answerable or accountable except for its own bad faith, willful misconduct or negligence. The Issuer shall prepare and file or cause to be filed, at the Issuer's expense, a UCC Financing Statement, describing the Issuer as debtor, the Indenture Trustee as secured party and the Trust Estate as the collateral, in all appropriate locations promptly following the initial issuance of the Notes, and the Issuer shall prepare and file at each such office, continuation statements with respect thereto, in each case within six months prior to each fifth anniversary of the original filing. The Issuer is hereby authorized and obligated to make, at the expense of the Issuer, all required filings and refilings of which the Issuer becomes aware, necessary to preserve the liens created by this Indenture to the extent not done by the Issuer as provided herein. The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action to exercise or enforce the trusts hereby created which, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee, shall be likely to involve expense or liability to the Indenture Trustee, unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an agreement satisfactory to it in its sole reasonable discretion to indemnify it against such liability and expense. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements contained herein, or in the Receivables Purchase Agreement or in any other instruments to be performed or observed by the Issuer or any party to the Receivables Purchase Agreement.


(ii) Subject to the other provisions of this Article V, the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders, or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provisions of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they are on their face in the form required by this Indenture to the extent expressly set forth herein. If any such instrument is found on its face not to conform to the requirements of this Indenture in a material manner, the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Indenture Trustee's reasonable satisfaction, the Indenture Trustee will provide notice thereof to the Noteholders. The Indenture Trustee shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature, notice, request, consent, certificate, opinion, or other instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine. In administering the trusts hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder directly or through its attorneys or custodians and the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any negligence on the part of any custodian or attorney appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care. The Indenture Trustee may, subject to Section 5.04, consult with counsel, accountants and other professionals to be selected and employed by it, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of any such Person nor for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.


(iii) The Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty to make, arrange or ensure the completion of any recording, filing or registration of any instrument or other document (including any UCC Financing Statements), or any amendments or supplements to any of said instruments or to determine if any such instrument or other document is in a form suitable for recording, filing or registration, and the Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty to make, arrange or ensure the completion of the payment of any fees, charges or taxes in connection therewith.


(iv) Whenever in performing its duties hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, rely upon (unless other evidence in respect thereof be specifically prescribed herein) an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer, and such Officer's Certificate shall be full warrant to the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it on the faith thereof.


(v) The Indenture Trustee shall not have any obligations to see to the payment or discharge





---




of any liens (other than the liens hereof) upon the Receivables, or to see to the application of any payment of the principal of or interest on any note secured thereby or to the delivery or transfer to any Person of any property released from any such lien, or to give notice to or make demand upon any mortgagor, mortgagee, trustor, beneficiary or other Person for the delivery or transfer of any such property. The Indenture Trustee (and any successor trustee or co-trustee in its individual capacity) nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens or encumbrances on the Receivables arising as a result of the Indenture Trustee (or such successor trustee or co-trustee, as the case may be) acting improperly in its capacity as Indenture Trustee (or such successor trustee or co-trustee, as the case may be).


(vi) The Indenture Trustee shall not be concerned with or accountable to any Person for the use or application of any deposited moneys or of any property or securities or the proceeds thereof that shall be released or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions hereof or of any property or securities or the proceeds thereof that shall be released from the lien hereof or thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof or thereof and the Indenture Trustee shall not have any liability for the acts of other parties that are not in accordance with the provisions hereof.


(b) The rights, duties and liabilities of the Indenture Trustee in respect of the Receivables and this Indenture, in addition to those set forth in Section 5.01(a), shall be as follows:


(i) except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and


(ii) the Indenture Trustee may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture, to the extent expressly set forth herein.


(c) Subject to Section 4.12 hereof, in case an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.


(d) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Indenture 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 subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section; (ii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;


(ii) the Indenture 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 directions of the Majority Noteholders, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Notes; and


(iii) the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take notice or deemed to have notice of, or charged with knowledge of a default, an Event of Default or an Early Amortization Event unless either (i) a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such default, Event of Default or Early Amortization Event or (ii) written notice of such default shall have been given by the Issuer or by any Noteholder to and received by a Responsible Officer of the Indenture





---




Trustee and in the absence of such notice or actual knowledge, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no default, Event of Default or Early Amortization Event.





Section 5.02.    Notice of Defaults.


(a) The Indenture Trustee, promptly but not later than two (2) Business Days after a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee acquires actual knowledge of the occurrence of any Event of Default or any event which, after notice or lapse of time would become an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, shall notify the Issuer, the Noteholders, any Hedge Provider and the Agent of any such event, unless all such events known to the Indenture Trustee shall have been cured before the giving of such notice or unless the same is rescinded and annulled, or waived by the Noteholders pursuant to Section 4.02 or Section 4.12.  For the purpose of this Section 5.02, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.


(b) The Indenture Trustee also agrees, promptly but no later than two (2) Business Days after a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee acquires actual knowledge of the occurrence of any default or event of default under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, to notify the Issuer, the Noteholders and the Agent of such default or event of default.

The Indenture Trustee agrees to fully perform its duties under this Indenture notwithstanding any failure on the part of the Issuer to make any payments, reimbursements or indemnifications to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 5.04(a); provided, however, that (subject to Section 5.04(b)) nothing in this Section 5.04 shall be construed to limit the exercise by the Indenture Trustee of any right or remedy permitted under this Indenture in the event of the Issuer's failure to pay any sums due the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 5.04.


(b) The obligations of the Issuer set forth in Section 5.04(a) are nonrecourse obligations solely of the Issuer and will be payable only from the Trust Estate in accordance with Section 2.10(c). The Indenture Trustee hereby agrees that it has no rights or claims against the Issuer directly and shall only look to the Trust Estate to satisfy the Issuer's obligations under Section 5.04(a). The Indenture Trustee also hereby agrees not to file or join in filing any petition in bankruptcy or commence any similar proceeding in respect of the Issuer.


(c) The obligations of the Issuer under this Section 5.04 shall survive the termination of this Indenture, the payment of the Notes and the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee.

Section 5.08.    Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

(b) The Indenture Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, any Hedge Provider and the Agent. If the respective instruments of acceptance by a successor Indenture Trustee required by Section 5.09 shall not have been delivered to each such party within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Indenture Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.


(c) The Indenture Trustee may be removed at any time by the Majority Noteholders and notice of such action by the Noteholders shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer.

(ii) the Indenture Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Indenture Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Indenture Trustee or its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;





---




then, in any such case, (i) the Issuer may remove the Indenture Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 4.13, any Noteholder may, on its own behalf and on behalf of all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Indenture Trustee and the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.


(e) If the Indenture Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Indenture Trustee for any cause, the Issuer shall promptly remove the Indenture Trustee and appoint a successor Indenture Trustee, subject to the Agent's consent, who shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 5.09. If, within 60 days after such resignation, removal or incapacity, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Indenture Trustee shall not have been appointed by the Issuer and shall not have accepted such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 5.09, then a successor Indenture Trustee shall be appointed by the Majority Noteholders by notice delivered to the Issuer and the retiring Indenture Trustee, and the successor Indenture Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 5.09, become the successor Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes.


If, within 120 days after such resignation, removal or incapacity, or the occurrence of such vacancy, no successor Indenture Trustee shall have been so appointed and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 5.09, the resigning Indenture Trustee may, on its own behalf and on behalf of all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee.

In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Indenture Trustee, the successor Indenture Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer, any Hedge Provider, the Agent and the retiring Indenture Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall become effective and such successor Indenture Trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Indenture Trustee; but, on the request of the Issuer or the successor Indenture Trustee such retiring Indenture Trustee shall, upon payment of each of its fees and expenses, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Indenture Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Indenture Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Indenture Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Indenture Trustee hereunder, and shall take such action as may be requested by the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer to provide for the appropriate interest in the Trust Estate to be vested in such successor Indenture Trustee, but shall not be responsible for the recording of such documents and instruments as may be necessary to give effect to the foregoing.


Upon request of any such successor Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Indenture Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in this Section 5.09.


No successor Indenture Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Indenture Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article V.


Section 5.10.    Unclaimed Funds.


The Indenture Trustee is required to hold any payments received by it with respect to the Notes that are not paid to the Noteholders in trust for the Noteholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the expiration





---




of two (2) years following the Final Payment Date for the Notes, any moneys set aside in accordance with Section 2.10(b) for payment of principal, interest and other amounts on such Notes remain unclaimed by any lawful owner thereof, such unclaimed funds and, to the extent required by applicable law, any accrued interest thereon shall be remitted to the Issuer to be held in trust by the Issuer for the benefit of the applicable Noteholder until distributed in accordance with applicable law, and all liability of the Indenture Trustee with respect to such money shall thereupon cease; provided, that the Indenture Trustee, before being required to make any such repayment, may, at the expense of the applicable Noteholder, payable out of such unclaimed funds, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and otherwise at the expense of the Issuer, cause to be published at least once but not more than three times in two newspapers in the English language customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation, in New York, New York, a notice to the effect that such moneys remain unclaimed and have not been applied for the purpose for which they were deposited, and that after a date specified therein, which shall be not less than 30 days after the date of first publication of said notice, any unclaimed balance of such moneys then remaining in the hands of the Indenture Trustee will be paid to the Issuer upon its written directions to be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Noteholder until distributed in accordance with applicable law. Any successor to the Issuer through merger, consolidation or otherwise or any recipient of substantially all the assets of the Issuer in a liquidation of the Issuer shall remain liable for the amount of any unclaimed balance paid to the Issuer pursuant to this Section 5.10.


Section 5.11.    Illegal Acts.


No provision of this Indenture or any amendment or supplement hereto shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Indenture Trustee to do any act in the performance of its duties hereunder or to exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, which under any present or future law shall be unlawful, or which shall be beyond the corporate powers, authorization or qualification of the Indenture Trustee.


Section 5.12    Communications by the Indenture Trustee.


The Indenture Trustee shall send to the Issuer, within one (1) Business Day after the Maturity Date thereof, if any principal of or interest on such Notes due and payable hereunder is not paid, a written demand for payment thereof.


Section 5.13    Separate Indenture Trustees and Co-Trustees.


(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting legal requirements applicable to it in the performance of its duties hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to, and shall execute and deliver all instruments to, appoint one or more Persons to act as separate trustees or co-trustees hereunder, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, of any of the Trust Estate subject to this Indenture, and any such Persons shall be such separate trustee or co-trustee, with such powers and duties consistent with this Indenture as shall be specified in the instrument appointing such Person but without thereby releasing the Indenture Trustee from any of its duties hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indenture Trustee has no duty under this Indenture to perform any obligations of the Hedge Enforcement Party.  If the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Agent and the Issuer to the retention of any such separate trustee or co-trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any fees or expenses of any such separate trustee or co-trustee.  If the Indenture Trustee shall request the Issuer to do so, the Issuer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution of such instrument, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment without making such request. A separate trustee or co-trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 5.13 need not meet the eligibility requirements of Section 5.05.


(b) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, be subject to the following terms and conditions:


(i) the rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon such separate or





---




co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate or co-trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the appointing instrument, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed any nonresident 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 such separate trustee or co-trustee;


(ii) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, in respect of the custody of all cash deposited hereunder shall be exercised solely by the Indenture Trustee; and


(iii) the Indenture Trustee may at any time by written instrument accept the resignation of or remove any such separate trustee or co-trustee, and, upon the request of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to make effective such resignation or removal, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to accept such resignation or to make such removal without making such request. A successor to a separate trustee or co-trustee so resigning or removed may be appointed in the manner otherwise provided herein.


(c) Such separate trustee or co-trustee, upon acceptance of such trust, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in such instrument, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as may be necessary to provide for (i) the appropriate interest in the Trust Estate to be vested in such separate trustee or co-trustee, (ii) the execution and delivery of any transfer documentation or note powers that may be necessary to give effect to the transfer of the Receivables to the co-trustee. Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, by written instrument, constitute the Indenture Trustee its agent or attorney in fact with full power and authority, to the extent permitted by law, to do all acts and things and exercise all discretion authorized or permitted by it, for and on behalf of it and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall be dissolved, become incapable of acting, resign, be removed or die, all the estates, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, without the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee, until the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary as provided in this Indenture.


(d) Any notice, request or other writing, by or on behalf of any Noteholder, delivered to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to all separate trustees and co-trustees.


(e) Although co-trustees may be jointly liable, no co-trustee or separate trustee shall be severally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any other such trustee hereunder.

(c) The Agent hereby appoints Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Calculation Agent (the “ Calculation Agent ”) for the purpose of making calculations and verifications as provided in this Section 6.01(c).  The Calculation Agent shall provide all services as set forth herein, applying a standard of care and diligence reasonably expected from a nationally reputable company performing the services contemplated of the Calculation Agent.  The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Agent at any time.  If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Agent, as described in the preceding sentence, the Agent will promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent a leading bank or financial institution.  No resignation or removal of the Calculation Agent shall be effective without a successor having been duly appointed. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Calculation Agent under this Indenture, shall be entitled to the same rights, protections, expense reimbursements and indemnities afforded to the Indenture Trustee hereunder.

Promptly after the Seller obtains complete MSR Transfer Evidence with respect to a Subserviced Securitization Trust, the Seller, pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, shall deliver to the Agent such MSR Transfer Evidence. Subject to the terms of clause (l)(ii) of the definition of Eligible Servicing Contract, on any date on which the Agent receives the MSR Transfer Evidence with respect to a Subserviced Securitization Trust, the related Securitization Trust shall no longer be a “Subserviced Securitization Trust” and the Administrator shall update the Subserviced Securitization Trust Schedule and furnish it to the Agent and the Indenture Trustee, and the most recently furnished schedule shall be maintained by the Indenture Trustee as the definitive Subserviced Securitization Trust Schedule.

The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent, any Hedge Providers and the Noteholders, within 90 days after the end of each calendar year, an Officer's Certificate of the Issuer stating that (a), in the course of the performance by the officer executing such Officer's Certificate of such officer's present duties as an officer of the Issuer, such officer would normally obtain knowledge or have made due inquiry as to the existence of any condition or event which would constitute an Event of Default after notice or lapse of time or both and that to the best of the officer's knowledge, after reasonable inquiry, (b) the Issuer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Indenture in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof, and (c) no event has occurred and is continuing which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default, or, if such an event has occurred and is continuing, specifying each such event known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.

(ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Funding Interruption Event or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;


(iii) the Issuer shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer comply with and satisfy all conditions precedent relating to the transactions set forth in this Section 9.09;


(iv) the Successor Person shall have delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent and any Hedge Providers an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel each stating that, with respect to a Successor Person that is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or trust, such Successor Person shall be duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the jurisdiction in which such Successor Person is organized; that the Successor Person has sufficient power and authority to assume the obligations set forth in clause (i) above and to execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto for the purpose of assuming such obligation; that the Successor Person has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of an indenture supplemental hereto for the purpose of assuming such obligations; and that such supplemental indenture is a valid, legal and binding obligation of the Successor Person, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject only to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditor's rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered

In the event of any such conveyance or transfer of the Trust Estate permitted by this Section 9.09, the Person named as the “Issuer” in the first paragraph of this Indenture, or any successor that shall theretofore have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article and that has thereafter effected such a conveyance or transfer, may be dissolved, wound-up and liquidated at any time thereafter, and such Person thereafter shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker on all of the then Outstanding Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture.


(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, the Issuer shall not voluntarily consent to or otherwise acquiesce to any consolidation of the Issuer into the Seller, the Depositor or any of their Affiliates and shall take all legally permissible actions to oppose any such consolidation.  Further, each Noteholder acknowledges that it is relying on the separateness of the Issuer from the Seller, the Depositor and its Affiliates as a condition to purchasing the Notes.


Section 9.10.    Purchase of Notes.


The Issuer may reacquire Notes, in its discretion, by open market purchases in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

(a) Without limiting any other rights that an Indemnified Party may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Issuer hereby agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Party (as defined below) from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts (as defined below), excluding, however, Indemnified Amounts to the extent resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Party.  To the extent that the foregoing undertaking to indemnify the Indemnified Parties may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Issuer nevertheless shall pay such amounts as may be permitted under applicable law to satisfy its indemnification obligations hereunder to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law.


Without limiting or being limited by the foregoing, the Issuer shall pay in accordance with Section 2.10(c) to each Indemnified Party any and all amounts necessary to indemnify such Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified Amounts relating to or resulting from:


|    |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(i) | a breach of any representation or warranty made by the Issuer under or in connection with this Indenture or any other Transaction Document (without duplication of any amount paid by the Seller under the Receivables Purchase Agreement); or

|     |                                                                                                                                           
|---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(ii) | the failure by the Issuer to comply with any term, provision or covenant contained in this Indenture or any other Transaction Document; or

|      |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
|----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(iii) | any information prepared by and furnished or to be furnished by any of the Issuer or the Seller or any of their Affiliates pursuant to or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation, such written information as may have been and may be furnished in connection with any due diligence investigation with respect to the business, operations, financial condition of the Issuer, the Seller, any of their Affiliates or with respect to the Receivables, to the extent such information




---




contains any untrue statement of material fact.


(b) Any Indemnified Amounts subject to the indemnification provisions of this Section 9.11 shall be paid to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) Business Days following demand therefor; provided that, prior to an Event of Default, amounts payable under this Section 9.11 shall only be payable on Payment Dates pursuant to Section 2.10(c).  “ Indemnified Party ” means any of the Indenture Trustee (in all its capacities), the Calculation Agent, the Securities Intermediary, the Posted Collateral Custodian, the Owner Trustee, the Agent, any Hedge Provider, the Noteholders and their officers, employees, directors, attorneys, consultants, agents and successors or assigns and Affiliates and any Person who controls any of the foregoing or their respective Affiliates within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act.  “ Indemnified Amounts ” means any and all claims, losses, liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and related reasonable costs and reasonable expenses of any nature whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Indemnified Party, to the extent such Indemnified Amounts are caused by the occurrence of an event described in Section 9.11(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) above, with respect to this Indenture or any other Transaction Document.


(c) Promptly after an Indemnified Party shall have been served with the summons or other first legal process or shall have received written notice of the threat of a claim in respect of which an indemnity may be claimed against the Issuer under this Section 9.11, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Issuer in writing of the service of such summons, other legal process or written notice, giving information therein as to the nature and basis of the claim, but failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer from any liability which it may have hereunder or otherwise except to the extent that the Issuer is prejudiced by such failure so to notify the Issuer.  The Issuer will be entitled, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any such claim or action and to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, unless the defendants in any such action include both the Indemnified Party and the Issuer, and the Indemnified Party (upon the advice of counsel) shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer, or one or more Indemnified Parties, and which in the reasonable opinion of such counsel are sufficient to create a conflict of interest for the same counsel to represent both the Issuer and such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of attorneys for all Indemnified Parties related to the Secured Parties and one firm of attorneys for the Indenture Trustee.  Each Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Issuer in the defense of any such action or claim.  The Issuer shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding or threatened proceeding.





Section 9.12.    Lewtan Reports.


The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Agent, any Hedge Providers and the Noteholders, beginning one month after the Closing Date or the related Funding Date, as applicable, and on each Payment Date thereafter, a Lewtan Report for any Aggregate Receivables related to outstanding Delinquency Advances.  Any failure to provide such notice in a timely manner shall result in a Discount Factor Reduction Event; provided however, that the failure to deliver the Lewtan Report in a timely manner shall not by itself result in an Event of Default (it being understood that an Event of Default may occur due to a reduction in the Aggregate Collateral Value as a result of any applicable Discount Factor Reduction Event arising from the Issuer's failure to deliver a Lewtan Report pursuant to this Section 9.12).

Section 10.02    Nature of Duties.


The Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Indenture or in the other Transaction Documents.

Each Noteholder shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Issuer in connection with advancing any Additional Note Balance pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Issuer and the value of the Collateral, and the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Noteholder with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the advance of the Initial Note Balance hereunder or at any time or times thereafter; provided, that, upon the reasonable request of a Noteholder, the Agent shall provide to such Noteholder any documents or reports delivered to the Agent by the Issuer pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document.  Prior to waiving an Early Amortization Event, the Agent shall obtain the approval of the Controlling Class Required Noteholders.

The Agent and its directors, officers, agents or employees shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents





---




unless such action or inaction shall constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Agent or its directors, officers, agents or employees.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent (i) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Agent or counsel to the Issuer), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Noteholder and shall not be responsible to any Noteholder for any statements, certificates, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents on the part of any Person, the existence or possible existence of any default or Event of Default, or to inspect the Collateral or other property (including, without limitation, the books and records) of any Person; (v) shall not be responsible to any Noteholder for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Indenture or the other Transaction Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Indenture Trustee's Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by the Issuer in connection therewith, nor shall the Agent be responsible or liable to the Noteholders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.  The Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made in good faith pursuant to Section 2.10, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Noteholder to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Noteholders any payment in excess of the amount which they are determined to be entitled.  The Agent may at any time request instructions from the Noteholders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Indenture or of any of the other Transaction Document the Agent is permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval under any of the other Transaction Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Majority Noteholders.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Noteholder shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Indenture, the Notes or any of the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Noteholders.


Section 10.04    Reliance.


The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Indenture or any of the other Transaction Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

---




there has been a final judicial determination that such resulted from the Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The obligations of the Noteholders under this Section 10.05 shall survive the payment in full of the Notes and the termination of this Indenture.


Section 10.06.    Agent Individually.


With respect to its Percentage Interest under the Note Purchase Agreement, the advances made by it and the Variable Funding Notes issued to or held by it or any of its Affiliates, the Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Noteholder or holder of a Note.  The terms “Controlling Class,” “Noteholders,” “Majority Noteholders,” “Controlling Class Majority Noteholders,” “Required Noteholders,” “Controlling Class Required Noteholders,” or Variable Funding Noteholders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity as a Noteholder or one of the Majority Noteholders.  The term “Agent” shall mean the Agent solely in its individual capacity as the Agent hereunder.  The Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Issuer as if it were not acting as an Agent pursuant hereto without any duty to account to the Noteholders.


Section 10.07.    Successor Agent.


(a) The Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Transaction Documents at any time by giving at least thirty (30) Business Days' prior written notice to the Issuer and each Noteholder.  Such resignation shall take effect upon the acceptance by a successor Agent of appointment pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.


(b) Upon any such notice of resignation, the Controlling Class Majority Noteholders shall appoint a successor Agent who, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.  After the Agent's resignation hereunder as the Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Indenture and the other Transaction Documents.


(c) If a successor Agent shall not have been so appointed within said thirty (30) Business Day period, the retiring Agent shall then appoint a successor Agent who, if an Event of Default is not continuing, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, who shall serve as Agent until such time, if any, as the Majority Noteholders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.





Section 10.08    Collateral Matters.


(a) The Agent may from time to time, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, make such disbursements and advances (“ Agent Advances ”) which the Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Issuer of the Notes and other Issuer Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the Issuer pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, including, without limitation, costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 10.05.  The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Collateral and repayable pursuant to Section 2.10(c) on the Payment Date immediately succeeding the date on which such Agent Advances were made.  The Agent Advances shall not constitute advances on the Notes but shall otherwise constitute Issuer Obligations hereunder.  The Agent shall notify each Noteholder and the Issuer in writing of each Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Agent Advance.  Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.05, each Variable Funding Noteholder agrees that it shall make available to the Agent, upon the Agent's demand, in U.S. dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Noteholder's Percentage Interest of such Agent A

dvance.  If such funds are not made available to the Agent by such Noteholder, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Noteholder, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at the Reference Rate.


(b) The Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Noteholders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Issuer or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture has been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or is entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agent in this Section 10.08 or in any of the other Transaction Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Agent's own interest in the Collateral as one of the Noteholders and that the Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Noteholder.





ARTICLE XI


MISCELLANEOUS





Section 11.01.    Execution Counterparts.


This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.


Section 11.02.    Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc.


Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with.


Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:


(i) a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;


(ii) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(iv) a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with.





Section 11.03.Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture 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 may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such 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 or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, 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, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that any Person shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of such Person's compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of such Person to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee's right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article V.


Section 11.04.    Acts of Noteholders.


(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “ Act ” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 5.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section. With respect to authorization to be given or taken by Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee shall be authorized to follow the written directions or the vote of the Majority Noteholders, unless any greater or lesser percentage is required by the terms hereunder or under any other Transaction Document.


(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.


(c) The Term Note Principal Balance or Variable Funding Note Principal Balance, as applicable, and serial numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Note Register.


(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, declaration, waiver or other act of any Noteholder shall bind every future Noteholder of the same Note and the Noteholder of any Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.


Section 11.05    Computation of Percentage of Noteholders.


Whenever this Indenture states that any action may be taken by a specified percentage of the Noteholders, such statement shall mean that such action may be taken by the Noteholders of such specified percentage of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Outstanding Notes.

Section 11.06    Notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and Certain Other Persons.


Any communication provided for or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by courier or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, or if transmitted by telecopier and confirmed in a writing delivered or mailed as aforesaid, to: (i) in the case of the Issuer, Nationstar Advance Funding Trust 2012-W, c/o Wilmington Trust, National Association, Rodney Square North, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19890 Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, telecopy number: (302) 636-4140, telephone number: (302) 651-1000 and (ii) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, the Corporate Trust Office, or as to each such Person, such other address or facsimile number as may hereafter be furnished by such Person to the parties hereto in writing.


Section 11.07.    Notices to Noteholders; Notification Requirements and Waiver.


Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, a copy of any such notice shall be given simultaneously to each Hedge Provider, and in the case of any notice sent to Noteholders, such notice shall be sufficiently given if in writing and delivered by courier or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid; to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice . In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is delivered or mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.


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 Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.


In case, by reason of the suspension of regular courier and 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 Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.


Section 11.08.    Successors and Assigns.


All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuer shall bind its successors and permitted assigns, whether so expressed or not.


Section 11.09.    Separability Clause.

3.  The Transferee is a “qualified purchaser” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, together with the rules and regulations thereunder (the “ 1940 Act ”), and is aware that the Issuer will not be registered under the 1940 Act in reliance on the exemption set forth in Section 3(c)(7) thereof and that the Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The Transferee further represents and warrants that:


(A)  it is not purchasing the Notes with a view to the resale, distribution or other disposition thereof in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and will not sell participation interests in the notes or enter into any other arrangement pursuant to which any other person will be entitled to an interest in any payments on or based on the notes;


(B)  it is not a broker-dealer that owns and invests on a discretionary basis less than $25 million in securities of unaffiliated issuers;


(C)  it is not a participant-directed employee plan, such as a 401(k) plan, as referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(D) or (a)(1)(i)(E) of Rule 144A, or a trust fund referred to in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(F) of Rule 144A that holds the assets of such a plan;


(D)  it is not (x) a partnership, common trust fund, special trust, pension fund or retirement plan or other entity in which the partners, beneficiaries, security owners or participants, as the case may be, may designate the particular investments to be made or the allocation thereof, unless each such partner, beneficiary, security owner or participant empowered alone or with other partners or participants to make such decisions meets all requirements set forth herein for qualification as an eligible purchaser, or (y) an entity that has invested more than 40% of its assets in securities of the Issuer, giving effect to the amount invested in connection with its acquisition of the notes or a beneficial interest therein, unless each beneficial owner of the eligible purchaser's securities meets all requirements set forth herein for qualification as an eligible purchaser;


(E)  it either (x) is not an entity organized prior to April 30, 1996 that is excepted from the 1940 Act pursuant to section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) thereof or (y) has received the consent of the beneficial owners of its securities with respect to its treatment as a “qualified purchaser” in the manner required by section 2(a)51(C) of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder;


(F)  it acknowledges that the Notes are being offered only in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and that the Notes





---




have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Issuer has not been or will be registered under the 1940 Act; and


(G)  if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Purchased Notes or beneficial or economic interests therein, such Notes or interests may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only to a transferee who first provides a certificate in the form of this Exhibit B of the Indenture on behalf of itself and each account for which it is purchasing.


4.  The term “ securities” as used herein does not include (i) securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee, (ii) securities that are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee, if the Transferee is a dealer, (iii) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (iv) loan participations, (v) repurchase agreements, (vi) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (vii) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps.  For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the Transferee did not include any of the securities referred to in this paragraph.


5.  For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the Transferee used the cost of such securities to the Transferee, unless the Transferee reports its securities holdings in its financial statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities were valued at market.  Further, in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have included securities owned by subsidiaries of the Transferee, but only if such subsidiaries are consolidated with the Transferee in its financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the Transferee's direction.  However, such securities were not included if the Transferee is a majority‐owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and the Transferee is not itself a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.


6.  ____  ____  Will the Transferee be purchasing the Notes


Yes  No  only for the Transferee's own account?


If the answer to the foregoing question is “no,” then in each case where the Transferee is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account belongs to a third party that is itself a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule l44A and a “qualified purchaser” under Section 2(a)(51) and the rules and regulations thereunder, and the “qualified institutional buyer” and “qualified purchaser” status of such third party has been established by the Transferee through one or more of the appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A and such third party has represented that it is a “qualified purchaser” under Section 2(a)(51) and the rules and regulations thereunder.


8.  The Transferee will notify each of the parties to which this certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.  Until such notice is given, the Transferee's purchase of the Notes will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such purchase.  In addition, if the Transferee is a bank or savings and loan as provided above, the Transferee agrees that it will furnish to such parties any updated annual financial statements that become available on or before the date of such purchase, promptly after they become available.
