 Neither the execution and delivery of this Insurance Agreement, the Agreement

 This Insurance Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general equitable principles.

 No event has occurred and no condition exists that would constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Agreement, referred to herein
as an “Agreement Default Event”) or that, with the passing of time or with the giving of notice or both would become such an Agreement Default Event. 
 The Agreement and the Bonds have been duly executed by the Company and are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against
the Company, in accordance with their terms, subject to the qualification that the enforceability of the obligations of the Company, may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by

connection with the issuance of the Bonds, (i) there is no action suit, proceeding or investigation at law or in equity before or by any court or governmental agency or body pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or
affecting the Company that seeks to restrain or enjoin the issuance or delivery of the Bonds, or the collection of the payments to be made

pursuant to the Agreement or the Bonds of the Company or the resolutions of the Company relating to the Agreement or the Bonds, or that contests or affects
the powers of the Company to enter into or perform its obligations or consummate the transactions contemplated under any of the foregoing; and (ii) the Company is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court or any order
regulation or demand of any federal state, municipal or other governmental authority, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Bonds or the Agreement or
the financial condition, assets, properties or operation of the Company. 
 The financial statements of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 contained or incorporated by reference in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and Form 10Q for the quarter ending March 31, 2007 present fairly in all

affect the Company’s compliance with the terms hereof or of the Agreement; 
 (f) other Liens incidental to the normal conduct of the
business of the Company or any subsidiary or the ownership of its property and assets and which (i) were not incurred in connection with the incurrence of the indebtedness for borrowed money, and (ii) do not in the aggregate materially

respect thereof shall have otherwise been released and (y) Secured Debt permitted by clause (g) shall not exceed 5.0% of Net Assets. In the event that First Mortgage Bonds were delivered to the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of this
Section 3.02 and the Company is entitled to their release in accordance with this paragraph, FGIC agrees to deliver to the Trustee the consent required by Section 2.03 (b) of the Agreement promptly upon the written request of the
Company. Notwithstanding any surrender of collateral pursuant to the preceding sentence, the provisions of this Section 3.02 shall continue to apply in respect of the incurrence of additional Secured Debt of the Company.
