	  	and	  	 ACCREDITED MORTGAGE
 LOAN TRUST 2005-1

	 (“Party A”)
	  	 	  	(“Party B”)

  
 have entered and/or anticipate
entering into one of more transactions (each a “Transaction”) that are or will be governed by this Master Agreement, which includes the schedule (the “Schedule”), and the documents and other confirming evidence (each a
“Confirmation”) exchanged between the parties confirming those Transactions. 
  
 Accordingly, the parties agree as follows: — 
  

	1.	Interpretation 

  
 (a)    Definitions. The terms defined in Section 14 and in the Schedule will have the meanings therein specified for the purpose of this Master Agreement. 
  
 (b)    Inconsistency. In the event of any inconsistency
between the provisions of the Schedule and the other provisions of this Master Agreement, the Schedule will prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of any Confirmation and this Master Agreement (including the Schedule),
such Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the relevant Transaction. 
  
 (c)    Single Agreement. All Transactions are entered into in reliance on the fact that this Master Agreement and all Confirmations form a single agreement between the parties (collectively referred to as
this “Agreement”), and the parties would not otherwise enter into any Transactions. 
  

	2.	Obligations 

  

	(a)	General Conditions. 

  
 (i)    Each party will make each payment or delivery specified in each Confirmation to be made by it, subject to the other provisions
of this Agreement. 
  
 (ii)    Payments under
this Agreement will be made on the due date for value on that date in the place of the account specified in the relevant Confirmation or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, in freely transferable funds and in the manner customary for payments in
the required currency. Where settlement is by delivery (that is, other than by payment), such delivery will be made for receipt on the due date in the manner customary for the relevant obligation unless otherwise specified in the relevant
Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. 
  
 (iii)    Each obligation of each party under Section 2(a)(i) is subject to (1) the condition precedent that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to the other party has occurred and is
continuing, (2) the condition precedent that no Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction has occurred or been effectively designated and (3) each other applicable condition precedent specified in this Agreement. 
  
  







 (b)    Change of Account. Either party may change its account for receiving a payment
or delivery by giving notice to the other party at least five Local Business Days prior to the scheduled date for the payment or delivery to which such change applies unless such other party gives timely notice of a reasonable objection to such
change. 
  
 (c)    Netting. If on any date
amounts would otherwise be payable: — 
  
 (i)    in the same currency; and 
  
 (ii)    in respect of the same Transaction, 
  
 by
each party to the other, then, on such date, each party’s obligation to make payment of any such amount will be automatically satisfied and discharged and, if the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by one party exceeds the
aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the other party, replaced by an obligation upon the party by whom the larger aggregate amount would have been payable to pay to the other party the excess of the larger aggregate amount over
the smaller aggregate amount. 
  
 The parties may elect in respect of two or more
Transactions that a net amount will be determined in respect of all amounts payable on the same date in the same currency in respect of such Transactions, regardless of whether such amounts are payable in respect of the same Transaction. The
election may be made in the Schedule or a Confirmation by specifying that subparagraph (ii) above will not apply to the Transactions identified as being subject to the election, together with the starting date (in which case subparagraph (ii) above
will not, or will cease to, apply to such Transactions from such date). This election may be made separately for different groups of Transactions and will apply separately to each pairing of Offices through which the parties make and receive
payments or deliveries. 
  
 (d)    Deduction or Withholding
for Tax. 
  
 (i)    Gross-Up. All
payments under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue
authority, then in effect. If a party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party (“X”) will: — 
  
 (1)    promptly notify the other party (“Y”) of such requirement; 
  
 (2)    pay to the relevant authorities the full amount
required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by X to Y under this Section 2(d)) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is
required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against Y; 
  
 (3)    promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment to such authorities; and 
  
 (4)    if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in
addition to the payment to which Y is otherwise entitled under this Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed against X or Y) will
equal the full amount Y would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for: — 
  
 (A)    the failure by Y to comply with or perform any
agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d); or 
  
 (B)    the failure of a representation made by Y pursuant to Section 3(f) to be accurate and true unless such failure would not have occurred but for (I) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of
competent jurisdiction, on or after the date on which a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (II) a Change in Tax Law. 
  


					
	 	 	 	 	ISDA® 1992









 (ii)    Liability. If: — 
  
 (1)    X is required by any applicable law, as modified
by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, to make any deduction or withholding in respect of which X would not be required to pay an additional amount to Y under Section 2(d)(i)(4); 
  
 (2)    X does not so deduct or withhold; and 

 
 (3)    a liability resulting from such Tax is
assessed directly against X, 
  
 then, except to the extent Y has
satisfied or then satisfies the liability resulting from such Tax, Y will promptly pay to X the amount of such liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only if Y has failed to comply
with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)). 
  
 (e)    Default Interest; Other Amounts. Prior to the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction, a party that defaults in the performance
of any payment obligation will, to the extent permitted by law and subject to Section 6(c), be required to pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as such overdue
amount, for the period from (and including) the original due date for payment to (but excluding) the date of actual payment, at the Default Rate. Such interest will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days
elapsed. If, prior to the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction, a party defaults in the performance of any obligation required to be settled by delivery, it will compensate the other
party on demand if and to the extent provided for in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. 
  

	3.	Representations 

  
 Each party represents to the other party (which representations will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into and, in the case of the representations in Section 3(f),
at all times until the termination of this Agreement) that: — 
  
 (a)    Basic Representations.

to execute this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement to which it is a party, to deliver this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement that it is required by this Agreement to deliver and to perform
its obligations under this Agreement and any obligations it has under any Credit Support Document to which it is a party and has taken all necessary action to authorise such execution, delivery and performance; 
  
 (iii)    No Violation or Conflict. Such
execution, delivery and performance do not violate or conflict with any law applicable to it, any provision of its constitutional documents, any order or judgment of any court or other agency of government applicable to it or any of its assets or
any contractual restriction binding on or affecting it or any of its assets; 
  
 (iv)    Consents. All governmental and other consents that are required to have been obtained by it with respect to this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party have
been obtained and are in full force and effect and all conditions of any such consents have been complied with; and 
  
 (v)    Obligations Binding. Its obligations under this Agreement and any Credit Support Document to which it is a party
constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganisation, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and
subject, as to enforceability, to equitable principles of general application (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law)). 
  


					
	 	 	3	 	ISDA® 1992

which it is a party. 
  
 (c)    Absence of
Litigation. There is not pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against it or any of its Affiliates any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or before any court, tribunal, governmental body, agency or official or any arbitrator

 (ii)    any other documents specified in the Schedule or
any Confirmation; and

reasonable demand by such other party, any form or document that may be required or reasonably requested in writing in order to allow such other party or its Credit Support Provider to make a payment under this Agreement or any applicable Credit
Support Document without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or with such deduction or withholding at a reduced rate (so long as the completion, execution or submission of such form or document would not materially prejudice
the legal or commercial position of the party in receipt of such demand), with any such form or document to be accurate and completed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such other party and to be executed and to be delivered with any reasonably
required certification, 
  
 in each case by the date specified in the Schedule or
such Confirmation or, if none is specified, as soon as reasonably practicable. 
  
 (b)    Maintain Authorisations. It will use all reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect all consents of any governmental or other authority that are required to be obtained by it with

 (c)    Comply with Laws. It will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and orders to

to be accurate and true promptly upon learning of such failure.

Agreement is located (“Stamp Tax Jurisdiction”) and will indemnify the other party against any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon the other party or in respect of the other party’s execution or performance of this Agreement by any such
Stamp Tax Jurisdiction which is not also a Stamp Tax Jurisdiction with respect to the other party. 
  

	5.	Events of Default and Termination Events 

  
 (a)    Events of Default. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such
party or any Specified Entity of such party of any of the following events constitutes an event of default (an “Event of Default”) with respect to such party: — 
  
 (i)    Failure to Pay or Deliver. Failure by the party to make, when due, any payment under this

4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)) to be complied with or performed by the party in accordance with this Agreement if such failure is not remedied on or before the thirtieth day after notice of such failure is given to the party; 
  
 (iii)    Credit Support Default. 
  
 (1)    Failure by the party or any Credit Support

 (2)    the expiration or termination of
such Credit Support Document or the failing or ceasing of such Credit Support Document to be in full force and effect for the purpose of this Agreement (in either case other than in accordance with its terms) prior to the satisfaction of all
obligations of such party under each Transaction to which such Credit Support Document relates without the written consent of the other party; or 
  
 (3)    the party or such Credit Support Provider disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the
validity of, such Credit Support Document; 
  
 (iv)    Misrepresentation. A representation (other than a representation under Section 3(e) or (f)) made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such
party in this Agreement or any Credit Support Document proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been made or repeated; 
  
 (v)    Default under Specified Transaction. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party
or any applicable Specified Entity of such party (1) defaults under a Specified Transaction and, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, there occurs a liquidation of, an acceleration of obligations under, or an
early termination of, that Specified Transaction, (2) defaults, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, in making any payment or delivery due on the last payment, delivery or exchange date of, or any payment on
early termination of, a Specified Transaction (or such default continues for at least three Local Business Days if there is no applicable notice requirement or grace period) or (3) disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, a
Specified Transaction (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on its behalf); 
  
 (vi)    Cross Default. If “Cross Default” is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, the occurrence or

described) in respect of such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party under one or more agreements
or instruments relating to Specified Indebtedness of any of them (individually or collectively) in an aggregate amount of not less than the applicable Threshold Amount (as specified in the Schedule) which has resulted in such Specified Indebtedness
becoming, or becoming capable at such time of being declared, due and payable under such agreements or instruments, before it would otherwise have been due and payable or (2) a default by such party, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified
Entity (individually or collectively) in making one or more payments on the due date thereof in an aggregate amount of not less than the applicable Threshold Amount under such agreements or instruments (after giving effect to any applicable notice
requirement or grace period); 
  
 (vii)    Bankruptcy. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party:– 
  
 (1)    is dissolved (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (2) becomes

than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger); (6) seeks or becomes subject to the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or
substantially all its assets; (7) has a secured party take possession of all or substantially all its assets or has a distress, execution, attachment, sequestration or other legal process levied, enforced or sued on or against all or substantially
all its assets and such secured party maintains possession, or any such process is not dismissed, discharged, stayed or restrained, in each case within 30 days thereafter; (8) causes or is subject to any event with respect to it which, under the
applicable laws of any jurisdiction, has an analogous effect to any of the events specified in clauses (1) to (7) (inclusive); or (9) takes any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the
foregoing acts; or 
  
 (viii)    Merger
Without Assumption. The party or any Credit Support Provider of such party consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets to, another entity and, at the time of such consolidation,
amalgamation, merger or transfer: — 
  
 (1)    the resulting, surviving or transferee entity fails to assume all the obligations of such party or such Credit Support Provider under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it or its predecessor
was a party by operation of law or pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the other party to this Agreement; or 
  
 (2)    the benefits of any Credit Support Document fail to extend (without the consent of the other party) to the performance by such
resulting, surviving or transferee entity of its obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 (b)    Termination Events. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified Entity of such party of any event specified below
constitutes an Illegality if the event is specified in (i) below, a Tax Event if the event is specified in (ii) below or a Tax Event Upon Merger if the event is specified in (iii) below, and, if specified to be applicable, a Credit Event 

  


					
	 	 	6	 	ISDA® 1992









 
Upon Merger if the event is specified pursuant to (iv) below or an Additional Termination Event if the event is specified pursuant to (v) below:—

  
 (i)    Illegality. Due to the
adoption of, or any change in, any applicable law after the date on which a Transaction is entered into, or due to the promulgation of, or any change in, the interpretation by any court, tribunal or regulatory authority with competent jurisdiction
of any applicable law after such date. it becomes unlawful (other than as a result of a breach by the party of Section 4(b)) for such party (which will be the Affected Party):— 
  
 (1)    to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery or to receive a
payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or to comply with any other material provision of this Agreement relating to such Transaction; or 
  
 (2)    to perform, or for any Credit Support Provider of such party to perform, any contingent or other obligation which the party (or
such Credit Support Provider) has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction; 
  
 (ii)    Tax Event. Due to (x) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, on or
after the date on which a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (y) a Change in Tax Law, the party (which will be the Affected Party) will, or there is a
substantial likelihood that it will, on the next succeeding Scheduled Payment Date (1) be required to pay to the other party an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under
Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount is required to be deducted or withheld for or on account of a Tax (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) and no additional amount is required
to be paid in respect of such Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)); 
  
 (iii)    Tax Event Upon Merger. The party (the “Burdened Party”) on the next succeeding Scheduled Payment Date will
either (1) be required to pay an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 2(e), 6(d)(ii) or 6(e)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount has been deducted or
withheld for or on account of any Indemnifiable Tax in respect of which the other party is not required to pay an additional amount (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)), in either case as a result of a party consolidating or
amalgamating with, or merging with or into, or transferring all or substantially all its assets to, another entity (which will be the Affected Party) where such action does not constitute an event described in Section 5(a)(viii); 
  
 (iv)    Credit Event Upon Merger. If “Credit
Event Upon Merger” is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, such party (“X”), any Credit Support Provider of X or any applicable Specified Entity of X consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or
transfers all or substantially all its assets to, another entity and such action does not constitute an event described in Section 5(a)(viii) but the creditworthiness of the resulting, surviving or transferee entity is materially weaker than that of
X, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified Entity, as the case may be, immediately prior to such action (and, in such event, X or its successor or transferee, as appropriate, will be the Affected Party); of 
  
 (v)    Additional Termination Event. If any
“Additional Termination Event” is specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation as applying, the occurrence of such event (and, in such event, the Affected Party or Affected Parties shall be as specified for such Additional Termination
Event in the Schedule or such Confirmation). 
  
 (c)    Event of Default and Illegality. If an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute or give rise to an Event of Default also constitutes an Illegality, it will be treated as an Illegality
and will not constitute an Event of Default.

	6.	Early Termination 

  
 (a)    Right to Terminate Following Event of Default. If at any time an Event of Default with respect to a party (the “Defaulting Party”) has occurred and is then
continuing, the other party (the “Non-defaulting Party”) may, by not more than 20 days notice to the Defaulting Party specifying the relevant Event of Default, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective
as an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions. If, however, “Automatic Early Termination” is specified in the Schedule as applying to a party, then an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding
Transactions will occur immediately upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(1), (3), (5), (6) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8), and as of the time immediately preceding the
institution of the relevant proceeding or the presentation of the relevant petition upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(4) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8). 
  
 (b)    Right to Terminate Following
Termination Event. 
  
 (i)    Notice. If a Termination Event occurs, an Affected Party will, promptly upon becoming aware of it, notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Termination Event and each Affected Transaction and
will also give such other information about that Termination Event as the other party may reasonably require. 
  
 (ii)    Transfer to Avoid Termination Event. If either an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs and there
is only one Affected Party, or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv), use all reasonable
efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, excluding immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the
Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that such Termination Event ceases to exist. 
  
 If the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period, whereupon the
other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section 6(b)(i). 
  
 Any such transfer by a party under this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which
consent will not be withheld if such other party’s policies in effect at such time would permit it to enter into transactions with the transferee on the terms proposed. 
  
 (iii)    Two Affected Parties. If an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs
and there are two Affected Parties, each party will use all reasonable efforts to reach agreement within 30 days after notice thereof is given under Section 6(b)(i) on action to avoid that Termination Event. 
  
 (iv)    Right to Terminate. If:— 

 
 (1)    a transfer under Section 6(b)(ii) or an
agreement under Section 6(b)(iii), as the case may be, has not been effected with respect to all Affected Transactions within 30 days after an Affected Party gives notice under Section 6(b)(i); or 
  
 (2)    an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(2), a Credit
Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event occurs, or a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is not the Affected Party, 
  
 either party in the case of an Illegality, the Burdened Party in the case of a Tax Event Upon Merger, any Affected Party in the case of a Tax Event or an
Additional Termination Event if there is more than one Affected Party, or the party which is not the Affected Party in the case of a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event if there is only one Affected Party may, by not more
than 20 days notice to the other party and provided that the relevant Termination Event is then continuing, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected Transactions.

 (c)    Effect of Designation. 
  
 (i)    If notice designating an Early Termination Date
is given under Section 6(a) or (b), the Early Termination Date will occur on the date so designated, whether or not the relevant Event of Default or Termination Event is then continuing. 
  
 (ii)    Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date, no further payments
or deliveries under Section 2(a)(i) or 2(e) in respect of the Terminated Transactions will be required to be made, but without prejudice to the other provisions of this Agreement. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date
shall be determined pursuant to Section 6(e). 
  
 (d)    Calculations. 
  
 (i)    Statement. On or as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Early Termination Date, each party will make the calculations on its part, if any, contemplated by Section 6(e) and will
provide to the other party a statement (1) showing, in reasonable detail, such calculations (including all relevant quotations and specifying any amount payable under Section 6(e)) and (2) giving details of the relevant account to which any amount
payable to it is to be paid. In the absence of written confirmation from the source of a quotation obtained in determining a Market Quotation, the records of the party obtaining such quotation will be conclusive evidence of the existence and
accuracy of such quotation. 
  
 (ii)    Payment Date. An amount calculated as being due in respect of any Early Termination Date under Section 6(e) will be payable on the day that notice of the amount payable is effective (in the case of an
Early Termination Date which is designated or occurs as a result of an Event of Default) and on the day which is two Local Business Days after the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective (in the case of an Early Termination Date which
is designated as a result of a Termination Event). Such amount will be paid together with (to the extent permitted under applicable law) interest thereon (before as well as after judgment) in the Termination Currency, from (and including) the
relevant Early Termination Date to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid, at the Applicable Rate. Such interest will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding and the actual number of days elapsed. 
  
 (e)    Payments on Early Termination. If an Early
Termination Date occurs, the following provisions shall apply based on the parties’ election in the Schedule of a payment measure, either “Market Quotation” or “Loss”, and a payment method, either the “First
Method” or the “Second Method”. If the parties fail to designate a payment measure or payment method in the Schedule, it will be deemed that “Market Quotation” or the “Second Method”, as the case may be, shall
apply. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date and determined pursuant to this Section will be subject to any Set-off. 
  
 (i)    Events of Default. If the Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default:— 
  
 (1)    First Method and Market Quotation. If the
First Method and Market Quotation apply, the Defaulting Party will pay to the Non-defaulting Party the excess, if a positive number, of (A) the sum of the Settlement Amount (determined by the Non-defaulting Party) in respect of the Terminated
Transactions and the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting Party over (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting Party. 
  
 (2)    First Method and Loss. If the First Method
and Loss apply, the Defaulting Party will pay to the Non-defaulting Party, if a positive number, the Non-defaulting Party’s Loss in respect of this Agreement. 
  
 (3)    Second Method and Market Quotation. If the Second Method and Market Quotation apply, an
amount will be payable equal to (A) the sum of the Settlement Amount (determined by the 

  


					
	 	 	9	 	ISDA® 1992









 
Non-defaulting Party) in respect of the Terminated Transactions and the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting
Party less (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting Party. If that amount is a positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting
Party will pay the absolute value of that amount to the Defaulting Party. 
  
 (4)    Second Method and Loss. If the Second Method and Loss apply, an amount will be payable equal to the Non-defaulting Party’s Loss in respect of this Agreement. If that amount is a
positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting Party will pay the absolute value of that amount to the Defaulting Party. 
  
 (ii)    Termination Events. If the Early
Termination Date results from a Termination Event:— 
  
 (1)    One Affected Party. If there is one Affected Party, the amount payable will be determined in accordance with Section 6(e)(i)(3), if Market Quotation applies, or Section 6(e)(i)(4), if Loss applies, except
that, in either case, references to the Defaulting Party and to the Non-defaulting Party will be deemed to be references to the Affected Party and the party which is not the Affected Party, respectively, and, if Loss applies and fewer than all the
Transactions are being terminated, Loss shall be calculated in respect of all Terminated Transactions. 
  
 (2)    Two Affected Parties. If there are two Affected Parties:— 
  
 (A)    if Market Quotation applies, each party will
determine a Settlement Amount in respect of the Terminated Transactions, and an amount will be payable equal to (I) the sum of (a) one-half of the difference between the Settlement Amount of the party with the higher Settlement Amount
(“X”) and the Settlement Amount of the party with the lower Settlement Amount (“Y”) and (b) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to X less (II) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts
owing to Y; and 
  
 (B)    if Loss applies,
each party will determine its Loss in respect of this Agreement (or, if fewer than all the Transactions are being terminated, in respect of all Terminated Transactions) and an amount will be payable equal to one-half of the difference between the
Loss of the party with the higher Loss (“X”) and the Loss of the party with the lower Loss (“Y”). 
  
 If the amount payable is a positive number, Y will pay it to X; if it is a negative number, X will pay the absolute value of that amount to Y. 

 
 (iii)    Adjustment for Bankruptcy. In
circumstances where an Early Termination Date occurs because “Automatic Early Termination” applies in respect of a party, the amount determined under this Section 6(e) will be subject to such adjustments as are appropriate and permitted by
law to reflect any payments or deliveries made by one party to the other under this Agreement (and retained by such other party) during the period from the relevant Early Termination Date to the date for payment determined under Section 6(d)(ii).

  
 (iv)    Pre-Estimate. The parties
agree that if Market Quotation applies an amount recoverable under this Section 6(e) is a reasonable pre-estimate of loss and not a penalty. Such amount is payable for the loss of bargain and the loss of protection against future risks and except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement neither party will be entitled to recover any additional damages as a consequence of such losses.

	7.	Transfer 

  
 Subject to Section 6(b)(ii), neither this Agreement nor any interest or obligation in or under this Agreement may be transferred (whether by way of security or otherwise) by either party without the prior written
consent of the other party, except that:— 
  
 (a)    a
party may make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into, or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to, another entity (but without prejudice to any other right or remedy
under this Agreement); and 
  
 (b)    a party may make such a
transfer of all or any part of its interest in any amount payable to it from a Defaulting Party under Section 6(e). 
  
 Any purported transfer that is not in compliance with this Section will be void. 
  

	8.	Contractual Currency 

  
 (a)    Payment in the Contractual Currency. Each payment under this Agreement will be made in the relevant currency specified in this Agreement for that payment (the “Contractual
Currency”). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any obligation to make payments under this Agreement in the Contractual Currency will not be discharged or satisfied by any tender in any currency other than the Contractual Currency,
except to the extent such tender results in the actual receipt by the party to which payment is owed, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency so tendered into the Contractual Currency, of the full amount in the
Contractual Currency of all amounts payable in respect of this Agreement. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received falls short of the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party
required to make the payment will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately pay such additional amount in the Contractual Currency as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual
Currency so received exceeds the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party receiving the payment will refund promptly the amount of such excess. 
  
 (b)    Judgments. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any judgment or order
expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency is rendered (i) for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement, (ii) for the payment of any amount relating to any early termination in respect of this Agreement or (iii)
in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in (i) or (ii) above, the party seeking recovery, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which such party is entitled pursuant to the judgment or
order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the other party the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency and will refund promptly to the other party any
excess of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency if such shortfall or such excess arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is
converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purposes of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which such party is able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency received into the
Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by such party. The term “rate of exchange” includes, without limitation, any premiums and costs of
exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into the Contractual Currency. 
  
 (c)    Separate Indemnities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, these indemnities constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement,
will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the party to which any payment is owed and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any
other sums payable in respect of this Agreement. 
  
 (d)    Evidence of Loss. For the purpose of this Section 8, it will be sufficient for a party to demonstrate that it would have suffered a loss had an actual exchange or purchase been made.

	9.	Miscellaneous 

  
 (a)    Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all oral communication and
prior writings with respect thereto. 
  
 (b)    Amendments. No amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing (including a writing evidenced by a facsimile transmission) and executed by each of
the parties or confirmed by an exchange of telexes or electronic messages on an electronic messaging system. 
  
 (c)    Survival of Obligations. Without prejudice to Sections 2(a)(iii) and 6(c)(ii), the obligations of the parties under this Agreement will survive the termination of any
Transaction. 
  
 (d)    Remedies Cumulative.
Except as provided in this Agreement, the rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided by law. 
  
 (e)    Counterparts and Confirmations. 
  
 (i)    This Agreement (and each amendment, modification
and waiver in respect of it) may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission), each of which will be deemed an original. 
  
 (ii)    The parties intend that they are legally bound by the terms of each Transaction from the moment they agree to those terms
(whether orally or otherwise). A Confirmation shall be entered into as soon as practicable and may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission) or be created by an exchange of telexes or by an exchange of
electronic messages on an electronic messaging system, which in each case will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to this Agreement. The parties will specify therein or through another effective means that any such
counterpart, telex or electronic message constitutes a Confirmation. 
  
 (f)    No Waiver of Rights. A failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement will not be presumed to operate as a waiver, and a single or partial exercise of any
right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 
  
 (g)    Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to
affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement. 
  

	10.	Offices; Multibranch Parties 

  
 (a)    If Section 10(a) is specified in the Schedule as applying, each party that enters into a Transaction through an Office other than its head or
home office represents to the other party that, notwithstanding the place of booking office or jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation of such party, the obligations of such party are the same as if it had entered into the Transaction through
its head or home office. This representation will be deemed to be repeated by such party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into. 
  
 (b)    Neither party may change the Office through which it makes and receives payments or deliveries for the purpose of a Transaction without the
prior written consent of the other party. 
  
 (c)    If a
party is specified as a Multibranch Party in the Schedule, such Multibranch Party may make and receive payments or deliveries under any Transaction through any Office listed in the Schedule, and the Office through which it makes and receives
payments or deliveries with respect to a Transaction will be specified in the relevant Confirmation. 
  

	11.	Expenses 

  
 A Defaulting Party will, on demand, indemnify and hold harmless the other party for and against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees and Stamp Tax, incurred by such other party by reason of the
enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which the Defaulting Party is a party or by reason of the early termination of any Transaction, including, but not limited to, costs of collection.

non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the United States District Court located in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, if this Agreement is expressed to be governed by the laws of the State of New York; and

Act 1982 or any modification, extension or re-enactment thereof for the time being in force) nor will the bringing of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the bringing of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 (c)    Service of Process. Each party irrevocably appoints
the Process Agent (if any) specified opposite its name in the Schedule to receive, for it and on its behalf, service of process in any Proceedings. If for any 

  


					
	 	 	13	 	ISDA® 1992









 
reason any party’s Process Agent is unable to act as such, such party will promptly notify the other party and within 30 days appoint a substitute
process agent acceptable to the other party. The parties irrevocably consent to service of process given in the manner provided for notices in Section 12. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of either party to serve process in any other
manner permitted by law. 
  
 (d)    Waiver of
Immunities. Each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, with respect to itself and its revenues and assets (irrespective of their use or intended use), all immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or other
similar grounds from (i) suit, (ii) jurisdiction of any court, (iii) relief by way of injunction, order for specific performance or for recovery of property, (iv) attachment of its assets (whether before or after judgment) and (v) execution or

immunity in any Proceedings.

group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, including any loss of bargain, cost of funding or, at the election of such party but without duplication, loss or cost incurred as a result of its terminating, liquidating, obtaining or

party (taking into account any existing Credit Support Document with respect to the obligations of such party) and the quoting Reference Market-maker to enter into a transaction (the “Replacement Transaction”) that would have the effect of
preserving for such party the economic equivalent of any payment or delivery (whether the underlying obligation was absolute or contingent and assuming the satisfaction of each applicable condition precedent) by the parties under Section 2(a)(i) in
respect of such Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions that would, but for the occurrence of the relevant Early Termination Date, have 

  


					
	 	 	15	 	ISDA® 1992









 
been required after that date. For this purpose, Unpaid Amounts in respect of the Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions are to be
excluded but, without limitation, any payment or delivery that would, but for the relevant Early Termination Date, have been required (assuming satisfaction of each applicable condition precedent) after that Early Termination Date is to be included.
The Replacement Transaction would be subject to such documentation as such party and the Reference Market-maker may, in good faith, agree. The party making the determination (or its agent) will request each Reference Market-maker to provide its
quotation to the extent reasonably practicable as of the same day and time (without regard to different time zones) on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant Early Termination Date. The day and time as of which those quotations are
to be obtained will be selected in good faith by the party obliged to make a determination under Section 6(e), and, if each party is so obliged, after consultation with the other. If more than three quotations are provided, the Market Quotation will
be the arithmetic mean of the quotations, without regard to the quotations having the highest and lowest values, If exactly three such quotations are provided, the Market Quotation will be the quotation remaining after disregarding the highest and
lowest quotations. For this purpose, if more than one quotation has the same highest value or lowest value, then one of such quotations shall be disregarded. If fewer than three quotations are provided, it will be deemed that the Market Quotation in
respect of such Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions cannot be determined. 
  
 “Non-default Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the cost (without proof or evidence of any actual cost) to the Non-defaulting Party (as certified by it) if it were to fund the relevant amount.

Default” means any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default. 
  
 “Reference Market-makers” means four leading dealers in the relevant market selected by the party determining a Market Quotation in good faith (a) from
among dealers of the highest credit standing which satisfy all the criteria that such party applies generally at the time in deciding whether to offer or to make an extension of credit and (b) to the extent practicable, from among such dealers
having an office in the same city. 
  
 “Relevant Jurisdiction”
means, with respect to a party, the jurisdictions (a) in which the party is incorporated, organised, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat, (b) where an Office through which the party is acting for purposes of this Agreement is
located, (c) in which the party executes this Agreement and (d) in relation to any payment, from or through which such payment is made.

 “Settlement Amount” means, with respect to a party and
any Early Termination Date, the sum of.- 
  
 (a)    the
Termination Currency Equivalent of the Market Quotations (whether positive or negative) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions for which a Market Quotation is determined; and 
  
 (b)    such party’s Loss (whether positive or negative and without
reference to any Unpaid Amounts) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions for which a Market Quotation cannot be determined or would not (in the reasonable belief of the party making the determination) produce a
commercially reasonable result.

 11 








 than the representations expressly set forth in this Agreement; and (iii) it has consulted with its own
legal, regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial, and accounting advisors to the extent it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging, and trading decisions based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such
advisors as it has deemed necessary and not upon any view expressed by the other party. 
  
 (j) Consent to Assignment. Notwithstanding Section 7 of this Agreement, Party A hereby acknowledges and consents to the assignment of this Agreement, solely for security purposes for the benefit of the
Noteholders, by Party B to Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”) under the Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to be a party to this Agreement; provided, however, that the
Indenture Trustee, acting on behalf of the Noteholders, shall have the right to enforce this Agreement, including the terms of Part 5(n), against Party A. Party A shall be entitled to rely on any notice or communication from the Indenture Trustee to
that effect; provided, further, that any such notice shall be in writing and delivered to Party A in accordance with Section 12 hereof. Party A shall be entitled to assume the authenticity of any such notice and shall have no
obligation to verify the accuracy of any facts asserted therein and shall be entitled to reasonably rely on the apparent authority of the sender thereof. Party B hereby indemnifies Party A against any losses, costs, claims or liabilities arising
from Party A’s reliance on any such notice and Party A shall be released from any further obligations to Party B with respect to the rights transferred to the Indenture Trustee (for so long as Party A has fulfilled its obligations hereunder to
the Indenture Trustee). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, the parties acknowledge that the indemnity contained in this Part 5(j) shall be considered an accrued and unpaid expense of the Trustee (reimbursable to Party A)
(which expense shall be payable with Interest Proceeds under Section 5.07(i) of the Indenture and not as a payment due to a Swap Provider under the Swap Agreement) and is only due to the extent funds are available for the payment thereof in
accordance with the priority of payments described in Article VIII of the Indenture. 
  
 (k) Regarding Party A. Party B acknowledges and agrees that Party A has had and will have no involvement in and, accordingly, accepts no responsibility for: (i) the establishment, structure, or choice of assets
of Party B; (ii) the selection of any person performing services for or acting on behalf of Party B; (iii) the selection of Party A as the counterparty; (iv) the terms of the Notes and the Certificates; (v) the preparation of or passing on the
disclosure and other information contained in any prospectus or prospectus supplement for the Notes and the Certificates, the Sale and Servicing Agreement, or any other agreements or documents used by Party B or any other party in connection with
the marketing and sale of the Notes and the Certificates; (vi) the ongoing operations and administration of Party B, including the furnishing of any information to Party B which is not specifically required under this Agreement; or (vii) any other
aspect of Party B’s existence except for those matters specifically identified in this Agreement. 
  
 (l) No Recourse. The Notes represent the non-recourse obligations of Party B only and the Certificates represent an equity interest in Party B only
and each of the 
  

 12 








 foregoing does not represent an interest in or obligation of Party A, and no recourse may be had by the holders of the
Notes and the Certificates against Party A or its assets with respect to the Notes and the Certificates and/or this Agreement. 
  
 (m) Indemnifiable Tax. Party A agrees that Party B will not be required to pay any additional amounts pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of the
Agreement in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax. If Party A is required to pay additional amounts in respect of a withholding tax pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of this Agreement, Party A may transfer this Agreement, subject to satisfaction of the
Rating Agency Condition, as provided in Section 6(b)(ii) of this Agreement and such transfer shall not require the consent of Party B to the extent it is in conformance with the provisions of Section 7(c), as amended herein. 
  
 (n) Additional Termination Events. 
  

	 	(i)	It shall be an Additional Termination Event, with Party B as the sole Affected Party, if all Indenture Collateral is liquidated and the proceeds thereof distributed following an
Event of Default that has resulted in the principal of all the Notes being declared to be immediately due and payable. 

  

	 	(ii)	It shall also be an Additional Termination Event if (i) the Indenture Trustee receives direction (a “Redemption Notice”) for an optional redemption, in whole, of the Notes
under Article 10 of the Indenture (a “Redemption Termination”) and (ii) there remains no more than 5 Business Days prior to the proposed Redemption Date. In the case of a Redemption Termination, both Party A and Party B shall have the
right to cause a termination of this Agreement and, for purposes of Section 6(e)(ii) of this Agreement, Party B shall be the sole Affected Party. Following notification from the Indenture Trustee that it has received a Redemption Notice, Party A
shall provide the Indenture Trustee from time to time, upon request, with good faith estimates of the amount that would be payable under Section 6(e)(ii) in the event of such Redemption Termination. Any termination payment payable in respect of such
Additional Termination Event shall be paid on the relevant Redemption Date. 

  

	 	(iii)	 (I) It shall also be an Additional Termination Event, with Party A the sole Affected Party (except as expressly provided herein) if Party A, a replacement
counterparty, or a person or an entity that guarantees the obligations of Party A or a replacement counterparty, as the case may be, has a rating that does not satisfy the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating (but is at least “BBB-” or
“A-3” (if applicable) by S&P or S&P or Moody’s withdraws its ratings and none of the following events has occurred: 



  

 13 









	 	(A)	within 30 days of such failure to satisfy the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, Party A or such replacement counterparty, as the case may be, transfers this Agreement, in whole,
but not in part, to a counterparty that satisfies the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition; 

  


	 	(B)	within 30 days of such failure to satisfy the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, Party A or such replacement counterparty, as the case may be, collateralizes its Exposure to Party
B pursuant to an ISDA Credit Support Annex, subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, as applicable; provided that such ISDA Credit Support Annex shall be made a Credit Support Document for Party A pursuant to an amendment of this
Agreement in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee; 

  

	 	(C)	within 30 days of such failure to satisfy the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, the obligations of Party A or such replacement counterparty, as the case may be, under this
Agreement are guaranteed by a person or entity that satisfies the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition; or 

  

	 	(D)	within 30 days of such failure to satisfy the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, Party A or such replacement counterparty, as the case may be, takes such other steps, if any, to
enable the Issuer to satisfy the Rating Agency Condition. 

  
 (II) It shall also be an Additional Termination Event, with Party A as the sole Affected Party (except as expressly provided herein) if Party A, a replacement counterparty, or a person or an entity that guarantees the
obligations of Party A or a replacement counterparty, as the case may be, has a rating of less than “BBB-” or “A-3” (if applicable) by S&P and within 7 days thereafter, Party A or such replacement counterparty, as the case
may be, while collateralizing its Exposure to Party B, fails to transfers this Agreement, in whole, but not in part, to a counterparty that satisfies the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

  
 Upon downgrade of Party A below the Required Hedge
Counterparty Rating or below “BBB-” or “A-3”, or if S&P or Moody’s withdraws its ratings for any reason, Party A will promptly give notice of the circumstances to Party B and to the 
  

 14 








 rating agencies that at the time are providing ratings for the Notes and Certificates. 
  
 Party B shall be entitled to (A)(1) in case of an Additional Termination
Event described in Part 5(n)(iii)(I), designate a date that is not earlier than the expiration of the 30 day period referred to in Part 5(n)(iii)(I) as an Early Termination Date in respect of all transactions under this Agreement by giving notice to
Party A at least 10 days prior to the date so designated (which notice may be given prior to the expiration of such 30 day period) and (2) in case of an Additional Termination Event described in this Part 5(n)(iii)(II), immediately designate an
Early Termination Date, in respect of all transactions under this Agreement by giving notice to Party A and (B) no later than the respective dates specified in clause (A)(1) and (A)(2), transfer the rights and obligations of Party A hereunder to a
counterparty that satisfies the Required Hedge Counterparty Rating, subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition. 
  
 In connection with a transfer of this Agreement as described in this Part 5(n)(iii), Party A shall, at its sole cost and expense, use commercially
reasonable efforts to seek a replacement counterparty and Party A shall reimburse Party B for (I) commercially reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with any of the alternative actions contemplated in paragraphs (A), (B), (C) and (D)
of Part 5(n)(iii)(I) above (whether or not they are completed within the 30 day period) and, if applicable, with the negotiation and documentation of a replacement hedge agreement and (II) the fees and expenses, if any, incurred in connection with
any of the alternative actions contemplated in paragraphs (A), (B), (C) and (D) of Part 5(n)(iii)(I) above (whether or not they are completed within the 30 day period) and, if applicable, with the negotiation and documentation of a replacement hedge
agreement that is not covered by subclause (I) for so long as Party A shall have consented to such fees and expenses prior to their incurrence by Party B, with Party’s A consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
  
 As used herein, “Required Hedge Counterparty Rating” means, with
respect to a counterparty or entity guaranteeing the obligations of such counterparty, (x) either (i) if such counterparty or entity has only a long-term rating by Moody’s, a long-term senior, unsecured debt obligation rating, financial program
rating or other similar rating (as the case may be, the “Long-Term rating”) of at least “Aa3” by Moody’s and if rated “Aa3” by Moody’s is not on negative credit watch by Moody’s or (ii) if such
counterparty or entity has a Long-Term Rating and a short-term 
  

 15 








 rating by Moody’s, a Long-Term Rating of at least “A1” by Moody’s and a short-term
rating of “P-1” by Moody’s and, in each case, such rating is not on negative credit watch by Moody’s and (y) (i) a short-term rating of at least “A-1” by S&P or (ii) if such counterparty or entity does not have a
short-term rating by S&P, a Long-Term Rating of at least “A+” by S&P. 
  
 For the purposes of determining the Settlement Amount with respect to the designation of an Early Termination Date arising from the Additional Termination Event specified in Party 5(n)(iii), both Party A and Party B
shall be Affected Parties. If the Settlement Amount calculated pursuant to this subclause (iii) is an amount owing by Party B to Party A, then such payment shall be a Swap Termination Payment payable by Party B to Party A in accordance with the
priority of payments described in the Indenture; provided, however, that (a) if Party A does not after the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts cause any of the conditions specified in Part 5(n)(iii)(I)(A) to (D) to be
satisfied, Party B shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into a replacement Transaction(s) with a counterparty acceptable to the Rating Agencies, in respect of the Affected Transaction(s) relating to the Additional Termination Event;
and (b) where multiple quotations are available such replacement Transaction(s) shall be entered into based on the quoted price(s) that would result in the largest payment made to Party B by the replacement counterparty (it being understood that
Party A may be permitted to actively solicit and obtain such quotations on behalf of Party B); and (c) to the extent that payments (“Replacement Payments”) are received from a replacement counterparty by Party B as a result of entering
into such replacement Transaction(s), then Party A shall have first priority as to such Replacement Payments versus all other creditors of Party B and Party B shall pay from the Replacement Payments received the lesser of (x) the Replacement
Payments so received and (y) the Swap Termination Payment to the extent not already paid by Party B over to Party A immediately upon receipt. 
  
 As used herein, “Exposure” means, as of any date of determination, the amount, if any, that would be payable to Party B by Party A under this
Agreement if an Early Termination Date were to occur as of such date of determination as a result of a Termination Event, Party A were the sole Affected Party, all Transactions were terminated in connection with such Early Termination Date and
(solely for purposes of determining Exposure) the amount of such payment were calculated using Market Quotation. 
  

 16 









	 	(iv)	It shall be an Additional Termination Event, with Party B as the sole Affected Party, if the Indenture is amended or modified in a manner that materially and adversely affects Party
A’s interests, without the prior consent of Party A, where such consent is required under the terms of the Indenture. 

  
 For any Additional Termination Event, the date that Party A or Party B, as the case may be, specifies in its notice of its election to terminate shall be
the Early Termination Date for the Transactions; provided, that solely in the case of an Additional Termination Event described in subclause (ii) above, the Early Termination Date shall be no earlier than the 3rd Business Day preceding the
Redemption Date and no later than the Redemption Date. 
  
 (o)
Indemnifiable Tax. The definition of “Indemnifiable Tax” in Section 14 is hereby amended by adding the following sentence at the end thereof: 
  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Indemnifiable Tax” also means any Tax imposed in respect of a payment under this Agreement by reason
of a Change in Tax Law by a government or taxing authority of a Relevant Jurisdiction of the party making such payment, unless the other party is incorporated, organized, managed and controlled, or considered to have its seat in such jurisdiction,
or is acting for purposes of this Agreement through a branch or office located in such jurisdiction. 
  
 (p) Limited Recourse; Non-petition. Party A agrees that the obligations of Party B hereunder are limited recourse obligations payable solely from
the Indenture Collateral, and due to the extent funds are available for the payment thereof in accordance with the priority of payments described in Article VIII of the Indenture, all outstanding obligations of Party B hereunder shall be
extinguished. Party A agrees that it will not, prior to the date which is at least one year and one day or, if longer, the then applicable preference period following the payment in full of all the Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture and the
expiration of all applicable preference periods under Title 11 of the United States Code or other applicable law relating to any such payment, acquiesce, petition or otherwise invoke or cause Party B to invoke the process of any governmental
authority for the purpose of commencing or sustaining a case (whether voluntary or involuntary) against Party B under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other
similar official of Party B or any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of Party B. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit Party A from submitting a claim, or proof of claim, in any proceeding or
process instituted by or against Party B by any person other than Party A or its Affiliates. Party A and Party B agree that this Part 5(p) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever. 
  
 (q) Acknowledgement of Pledge of Collateral. Party A acknowledges
Party B’s pledge of its assets under the Indenture and understands that the proceeds of such 

  

 17 








 
assets will be applied, including to payments hereunder, only in the order set forth in the Indenture. 
  
 (r) Replacement Counterparty. Following a failure to satisfy the
Required Hedge Counterparty Rating in accordance with Part 5(n)(iii)(I), Party A will take one of the alternative actions contemplated in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) of Part 5(n)(iii)(I) above. 
  
 (s) Confirmations. Transactions shall be promptly confirmed by the
parties by Confirmations exchanged by mail, telex, facsimile or other electronic means. Where a Transaction is confirmed by means of an electronic messaging system that the parties have elected to use to confirm such Transaction (i) such
confirmation will constitute a “Confirmation” as referred to in this Agreement even where not so specified in the confirmation and (ii) such Confirmation will supplement, form part of, and be subject to this Agreement and all provisions in
this Agreement will govern the Confirmation except as modified therein. 
  
 (t) Tax Documentation. Section 4(a)(iii) of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding prior to the existing text: 
  
 “upon the earlier of learning that any such form or document is required or” 
  
 (u) Inconsistency-Trade Call. In the event of any inconsistency between a telephone conversation, including a trade
call and a Confirmation signed by both parties, the Confirmation shall govern. 
  
 (v) Condition Precedent. The condition precedent in Section 2(a)(iii)(1) does not apply to a payment and delivery owing by a party if the other party shall have satisfied in full all its payment or delivery
obligations under Section 2(a)(i) and shall at the relevant time have no future payment or delivery obligations, whether absolute or contingent, under Section 2(a)(i). 
  
 (w) Definitions. This Agreement shall be subject to the 2000 Definitions (the “2000 Definitions”) as
published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association Inc. The provisions of the 2000 Definitions are incorporated by reference in and shall be deemed a part of this Agreement, except that all references in the 2000 Definitions to a
“Swap Transaction” shall be deemed references to a “Transaction” for the purposes of this Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein (or in the 2000 Definitions) shall have the respective meanings ascribed
to such terms in the Sale and Servicing Agreement referred to in Part 5(j), except that for purposes hereof “Indenture Collateral” shall have the meaning ascribed to the term “Collateral” in the Indenture. If in relation to any
Transaction there is any inconsistency between the 2000 Definitions, this Agreement, the Indenture, any Confirmation and any other definitions published by ISDA that are incorporated into any Confirmation, the following will prevail for purposes of
such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) such Confirmation (without reference to any definitions or provisions incorporated therein); (ii) the Indenture; (iii) this Agreement; (iv) such other definitions; and (v) the 2000
Definitions. 
  

 18 








 (x) Amendments. Section 9(b) is hereby amended as follows: 
  

	 	(i)	by inserting the following phrase immediately prior to the period at the end of the sentence: “and the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied”; and 


 

	 	(ii)	by adding the following text thereto immediately following the first sentence: “Amendments to this Agreement or the Schedule may not be effected in a Confirmation.”


  
 (z) It is expressly understood and agreed by the
parties hereto that (i) this Agreement is executed and delivered by U.S. Bank Trust National Association, not individually or personally but solely as Owner Trustee of Party B, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it
under the Trust Agreement, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of Party B is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by U.S. Bank Trust National Association but
is made and intended for the purpose of binding only Party B, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on U.S. Bank Trust National Association, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed
or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming, by through or under the parties hereto and (iv) under no circumstances shall U.S. Bank Trust National Association be
personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness or expenses of Party B or be liable for the breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by Party B under this Agreement or any other related
documents.
