instrument to which Transferor is a party or by which it or any of its properties are bound (other than violations of such indentures, contracts, agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust or other instruments which, individually or in the aggregate,

 Section 3.02.
Transferor Interest. The Transferor Interest shall represent an undivided beneficial interest in the Trust Estate subject to the lien of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Notes and Enhancement Providers created pursuant to

 5 








 
Transferor (or the holder of a Supplemental Interest, in the case of the transfer or exchange thereof, as provided below). The issuance of any such Supplemental Interest to any Person shall be
subject to satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) Transferor shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to
Owner Trustee and FNBO, dated as of the date of such action (or transfer, exchange or other disposition provided below) certifying that either (A) the transferee is a Permitted Affiliate Transferee or (B) if the transferee is not a
Permitted Affiliate Transferee, that the issuance of the Supplemental Interest to the transferee will not cause the Seller’s Interest, after giving effect to the issuance of the Supplemental Interest, to be less than the required amount; 

(ii) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such action; and 

(iii) Transferor shall have delivered to Owner Trustee, Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency a Tax Opinion, dated the date
of such action (or transfer, exchange or other disposition provided below), with respect to such action and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action, assignment, participation, pledge or other disposition does not require registration of
the interest under the Securities Act or any state securities law except for any such registration that has been duly completed and become effective. 

A Supplemental Interest may be transferred or exchanged, only upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and
(iii) above and the Transferor Interest may be pledged, only upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clause (iii) above. 

(b) The Transferor Interest may be transferred in its entirety to a Permitted Transferee Assignee who is a Person which is a
member of the “affiliated group” as defined in Section 1504(a) of the Code of which Transferor is a member without the consent or approval of the Noteholders, provided that (i) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been
satisfied with respect to such transfer, (ii) Transferor shall have delivered to Owner Trustee, Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency a Tax Opinion and an Opinion of Counsel of the type described in Section 3.04(a)(ii), dated the date
of such transfer, with respect thereto and (iii) Transferor shall have delivered to Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Transferor Interest shall not be less than the Minimum Transferor Interest. In connection with
any such transfer, the Person to whom the Transferor Interest is transferred will, by its acquisition and holding of an interest in the Transferor Interest, assume all of the rights and obligations of Transferor as described in this Agreement, each
Transaction Document and in any supplement or amendment thereto (including the right under this paragraph (b) with respect to subsequent transfers of an interest in the Transferor Interest). 

(c) Owner Trustee may fully rely upon an Officer’s Certificate from Transferor to confirm that all conditions set forth in
this Section 3.04(a) or (b), as applicable, have been met. 

  
 6 








 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, any purported transfer by the Transferor of all or
any part of its right, title and interest in and to the Transferor Interest or a Supplemental Interest which is not in compliance with the terms of this Section 3.04 will be null and void. 

ARTICLE IV 
 ACTIONS BY
OWNER TRUSTEE 
 Section 4.01. Prior Notice to Transferor With Respect to Certain Matters. With respect to the following
matters, unless otherwise instructed by Transferor, the Trust shall not take action unless at least 30 days before the taking of such action Owner Trustee shall have notified Transferor: 

(a) the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Trust (other than an action to collect on the Trust Estate) and the
settlement of any action, claim or lawsuit brought by or against the Trust (other than an action to collect on the Trust Estate); 

(b) the election by the Trust to file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust (unless such filing is required by
Section 3807(e) of the Statutory Trust Act); 
 (c) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental indenture in
circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is required; 
 (d) the amendment of the Indenture by a supplemental
indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required and such amendment materially adversely affects the interest of Transferor;

supplement any provision in a manner that would not materially adversely affect the interests of Transferor; or

 ARTICLE V 

AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE 

Section 5.01. General Authority. Each of the Trust and Owner Trustee in the name and on behalf of the Trust shall have power and
authority, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which the Trust is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Transaction Documents to
which the Trust is to be a party, or any amendment thereto or other agreement, in each case, in such form as Transferor shall approve as evidenced conclusively by Owner Trustee’s execution thereof and Transferor’s execution of the related
documents. In addition to the foregoing, Owner Trustee in the name and on behalf of the Trust shall also have power and authority and is hereby authorized and empowered, but shall not be obligated, to take all actions required of the Trust pursuant
to the Transaction Documents. Owner Trustee in the name and on behalf of the Trust shall also have power and authority and is hereby authorized and empowered from time to time to take such action as Transferor or Administrator directs in writing
with respect to the Transaction Documents. 
 Section 5.02. General Duties. It shall be the duty of Owner Trustee to discharge
(or cause to be discharged) all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents to which the Trust is a party and to administer the Trust as expressly set forth herein in the interest of
Transferor, subject to the Transaction Documents and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder and under the other
Transaction Documents to the extent Administrator has agreed in the Administration Agreement or another Transaction Document to perform any act or to discharge any duty of Owner Trustee or the Trust under any Transaction Document, and Owner Trustee
shall not be personally liable for the default or failure of Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Administration Agreement. 

Section 5.03. Action Upon Instruction. 

(a) Owner Trustee shall not be required to take any action hereunder or under any other Transaction Document if Owner Trustee
shall have reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in personal liability on the part of Owner Trustee or is contrary to the terms of any Transaction Document or is otherwise contrary to law.

 (b) Whenever Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of
any Transaction Document, Owner Trustee shall promptly give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to Transferor requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent Owner Trustee acts or
refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction of Transferor received, Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable on account of such action or inaction to any Person. If Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate
instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or may be 

  
 8 








 
necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not in violation of the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the
best interest of Transferor, and shall have no personal liability to any Person for such action or inaction. 
 (c) In the
event that Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of any Transaction Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be, in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event
that this Agreement permits any determination by Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action that Owner Trustee is required to take with respect to a particular set of facts, Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as
shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to Transferor requesting instruction and, to the extent that Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received, Owner Trustee shall not be
personally liable, on account of such action or inaction, to any Person. If Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within 10 days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in
such notice or may be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not in violation of the Transaction Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of Transferor, and
shall have no personal liability to any Person for such action or inaction. 
 (d) The Administrator and the Transferor may,
by written instruction, direct the Owner Trustee in the administration of the Trust to the extent permitted by, and not inconsistent with, the Transaction Documents (other than the Transaction Documents to which the Owner Trustee is a party in its

the Transaction Documents. Owner Trustee shall not be personally answerable or accountable under any Transaction Document under any circumstances, except (i) for its own willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
its duties or the omission to perform any such duties or (ii) in the case of the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.03 expressly made by Owner Trustee in its individual capacity. In particular, but not by

personally liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by Owner Trustee; 

  
 10 








 (b) Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken

 (c) no provision of this
Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall require Owner Trustee to expend or risk funds or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the exercise or performance of any of its duties, rights or powers hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document, if Owner Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it (as such and in its individual
capacity); 
 (d) under no circumstances shall Owner Trustee be personally liable for indebtedness evidenced by or arising
under any of the Transaction Documents, including the principal of and interest on the Notes;

unless the Transferor has offered to Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by Owner Trustee therein or thereby. The right of
Owner Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in any Transaction Document shall not be construed as a duty, and Owner Trustee shall not be answerable or personally liable to any Person for any such act other than liability to the Trust
and the beneficial owners of the Trust for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act or the omission to perform any such act; and 

  
 11 








 (h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Owner Trustee
shall not be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action will (i) require the registration with, licensing by or the taking of any other similar action in respect of, any

may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any Person as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect. As to any fact
or matter the method of the determination of which is not specifically prescribed herein, Owner Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer or other authorized officer
of an appropriate Person, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

 15 








 
Standard & Poor’s or at least BBB- by Fitch, or otherwise satisfactory to each Rating Agency. If such Person shall publish reports of

immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 9.02. 
 Section 9.02. Resignation or Removal of Owner
Trustee. Owner Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to Transferor; provided, however, that such resignation and discharge shall only be effective upon the appointment of
a successor Owner Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, Transferor shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and

provisions of this Section 9.02 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 9.03 and, in the case of removal, payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner
Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity). Transferor shall provide notice of such resignation or removal of Owner Trustee to each Rating Agency. 

Section 9.03. Successor Owner Trustee. Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 9.02 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to Transferor and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall become effective and such

reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations. 

No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 9.03 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor
Owner Trustee shall be eligible pursuant to Section 9.01.

this Section 9.03, Transferor shall mail notice of such acceptance of appointment, including the name of such successor Owner Trustee to Transferor, Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and each Rating Agency. If Transferor shall fail to mail
such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the successor Owner Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of Transferor.

corporate trust business of Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of Owner Trustee hereunder (provided that such Person shall meet the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 9.01), without the execution or filing of any instrument or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided, further that (a) Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger or consolidation to Transferor and (b) Owner Trustee shall file any necessary amendments to the Certificate of
Trust with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Transferor shall promptly provide a copy of such notice of merger or consolidation to each Rating Agency.

provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, Transferor and Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and
shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by each of Transferor and Owner Trustee to act as co-trustee, jointly with Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate
trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.05, such powers, duties, obligations, rights
and trusts as Transferor and Owner Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If Transferor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to
make such appointment. no co-trustee or separate trustee under this Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee pursuant to Section 9.01 and no notice of the
appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 9.03. 

  
 17 








 Each separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 
 (a) all rights, powers, duties,
and obligations conferred or imposed upon Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such
separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts
are to be performed, Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties, and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such
jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of Owner Trustee; 

(b) no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this
Agreement; and 
 (c) Transferor and Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any
separate trustee or co-trustee. 
 Any notice, request or other writing given to Owner Trustee shall
be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article IX. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall
be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision
of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, Owner Trustee. Each such instrument shall be filed with Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to Transferor. 

Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint Owner Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.
If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by Owner Trustee,
to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

performance by Owner Trustee of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the performance by Owner Trustee of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document nor the consummation of any of the transactions by Owner
Trustee contemplated hereby and thereby, is in violation of any indenture, mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound, which violation would have a material adverse effect on
Owner Trustee’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, or of any judgment or order binding on Owner Trustee, and (b) there are no proceedings pending or threatened against Owner Trustee
in any court or before any governmental authority, agency or arbitration board or tribunal which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the right, power and authority of Owner Trustee to enter into this Agreement
or any other Transaction Document or to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. 

Section 11.03. Information to be Provided by Owner Trustee. 

(a) Owner Trustee shall (i) on the fifth Business Day of each month, provide to Transferor, in writing, such information

(5) any trustee 

(6) any originator 

(7) any significant obligor 

(8) any enhancement or support provider

In connection with the above-listed parties, a description of whether there is, and if so the general character of, any business relationship,
agreement, arrangement, transaction or

understanding that is entered into outside the ordinary course of business or is on terms, other than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated third party, apart
from Securitization Transactions, this Agreement and any of the Transaction Documents that currently exists or that existed during the past two years, and that is material to an investor’s understanding of the Notes. 

(c) With respect to any information required to be provided under this Section 11.03, Owner Trustee shall not be required
to provide such information in the event that there has been no change to the information previously provided by Owner Trustee to Transferor but shall at Transferor’s request confirm there has been no change. In connection with each report on
Form 10-K with respect to the Notes and each report on Form 10-D with respect to the Notes filed by or on behalf of Transferor, Owner Trustee shall be deemed to represent and warrant, as of the date that is 15 days prior to the Trust’s annual
report date of each calendar year, for the report on Form 10-K and as of the related Distribution Date for each report on Form 10-D, that any information previously provided by Owner Trustee under this Article XI is materially correct and does not
