deed of trust or other 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, would not have a material adverse effect on Transferor’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement).

 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 

  
 7 








 
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 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. 

  
 8 








 (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 individual capacity).

 Section 5.04. No Duties Except as Specified in This Agreement or in Instructions. Owner Trustee shall not have any
duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of, or otherwise deal with the Trust or the Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action under, or in connection with, this
Agreement or any document contemplated hereby to which the Trust is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 5.03; and no
implied duties or obligations shall be read into any Transaction Document against Owner Trustee. Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for any filing or recording, including filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at
any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it or the Trust hereunder or to prepare, execute or file any Commission filing for the Trust, or to prepare any tax forms, returns or reports or
to record any Transaction Document. Owner Trustee in its individual capacity nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens on any part of the Trust Estate that
result from actions by, or claims against, Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Trust Estate or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. 

Section 5.05. No Action Except Under Transaction Documents or Instructions. Owner Trustee shall not manage, control, use,
sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Trust Estate except (i) in accordance with the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) in accordance with the Transaction
Documents or (iii) in accordance with any document or instruction delivered to Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 5.03. 
 Section 5.06. Restrictions. Owner Trustee shall not take any action (a) that, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of Owner Trustee, would violate the purposes of the Trust
set forth in Section 2.03 or (b) that, to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of Owner Trustee, would result in the Trust’s becoming taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. Transferor shall not direct Owner
Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section 5.06. 
 Section 5.07. Tax
Returns. In the event the Trust shall be required to file tax returns, Administrator shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared such tax returns and shall provide such tax returns to Owner Trustee for signature at least five days before such
tax returns are due to be filed. Administrator, in accordance with the terms of each Indenture Supplement, shall also prepare or shall cause to be prepared all tax information required by law to be distributed to Noteholders and shall deliver such
information to Owner Trustee at least five days prior to the date it is required by law to be distributed to Noteholders. Owner Trustee, upon request, will furnish Administrator with all such information known to Owner Trustee as may be reasonably

 ARTICLE VI

 CONCERNING OWNER TRUSTEE 
 Section 6.01. Acceptance of Trusts and Duties. Owner Trustee accepts the trusts hereby created and agrees to perform its duties hereunder with respect to such trusts, but only upon the terms
of this Agreement. Owner Trustee also agrees to disburse all moneys actually received by it constituting part of the Trust Estate to the Indenture Trustee for disbursement pursuant to 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 way of limitation (and subject to the exceptions set forth
in the preceding sentence): 
 (a) Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable for any error of judgment
made in good faith by Owner Trustee; 
 (b) Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the instructions of Administrator or Transferor; 

(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;

 (e) Owner Trustee shall not be personally responsible for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement, the due execution hereof by Transferor or the form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of any of the Trust Estate, the Transaction Documents, the Notes or the Transferor Interest, and Owner Trustee shall in no event
assume or incur any personal liability, duty, or obligation to any Noteholder, Transferor, any Holder of the Transferor Interest or any other Person, other than as expressly provided for herein or expressly agreed to in the other Transaction
Documents;

 (g) Owner Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of
the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Agreement or otherwise or in relation to any Transaction Document, at the request, order or direction of Transferor, 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 

(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 State or other governmental authority or agency
of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware by or with respect to Owner Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity); (ii) result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political
subdivisions thereof in existence on the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by Owner Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity); or (iii) subject Owner Trustee (as such or in its individual capacity) to personal
jurisdiction in any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware for causes of action arising from acts unrelated to the consummation of the transactions by Owner Trustee contemplated hereby. Owner Trustee shall be entitled to obtain advice of
counsel (which advice shall be an expense of Transferor) to determine whether any action required to be taken pursuant to this Agreement results in the consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence.
In the event that said counsel advises Owner Trustee that such action will result in such consequences, Transferor shall appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 9.05 to proceed with such action. 

Section 6.02. Furnishing of Documents. Owner Trustee shall furnish to Transferor and Indenture Trustee, promptly upon written

individual capacity) hereby represents and warrants to Transferor that: 
 (a) It is a corporation duly
organized and validly existing in good standing under the State of Delaware. It has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement. 

(b) It has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and this

contravene any federal or Delaware law, governmental rule or regulation governing the banking or trust powers of Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) or any judgment or order binding on it, or constitute any default under its
charter documents or bylaws or any indenture, mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound.

Trustee shall incur no personal liability to anyone in acting upon any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond, or other document or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine and

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. 
 (b) In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder
and in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or through agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and Owner
Trustee shall not be personally liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by Owner Trustee in good faith, and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other
skilled Persons to be selected in good faith and employed by it. Owner Trustee shall not be personally liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the written opinion or written advice of any such counsel,

 12 









 Section 6.05. Not Acting in Individual Capacity. Except as expressly provided in
this Article VI, in accepting the trusts hereby created, Wilmington Trust Company acts solely as Owner Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and all Persons having any claim against Owner Trustee by reason of the transactions
contemplated by any Transaction Document shall look only to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof. 

Section 6.06. Owner Trustee Not Liable for Notes or Receivables. The statements contained herein and in the Notes and other
Transaction Documents (other than the representations and warranties in Section 6.03) shall be taken as the statements of Transferor, and Owner Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof. Owner Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Notes or related documents. Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or personal liability for or with respect to the legality,
validity and enforceability of the Receivables or the perfection and priority of any security interest in the Receivables or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate or its
ability to generate the payments to be distributed to the Noteholders under the Indenture, including the existence, condition and ownership of the Receivables; the existence and contents of the Receivables on any computer or other record thereof;
the validity of the assignment of the Receivables to the Trust or of any intervening assignment; the completeness of the Receivables; the performance or enforcement of the Receivables; the compliance by Transferor with any warranty or representation
made under any Transaction Document or in any related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation or any action of Administrator, Servicer or Indenture Trustee taken in the name of Owner Trustee.  

Section 6.07. Owner Trustee May Own Notes. Owner Trustee may become the owner or pledgee of Notes. If Owner Trustee becomes
the owner or pledgee of Notes it shall have the same rights as it would have if it were not Owner Trustee. Owner Trustee may deal with Transferor, Administrator, Servicer and Indenture Trustee in banking transactions with the same rights as it would
have if it were not Owner Trustee. 
 ARTICLE VII 

COMPENSATION OF OWNER TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01. Owner Trustee’s Fees and Expenses. Owner Trustee (in its individual capacity) shall receive as compensation for its services hereunder such fees as have been separately
agreed upon before the date hereof between Transferor and Owner Trustee (in its individual capacity) (which compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust), and Owner Trustee (in its individual
capacity) shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Transferor for its other reasonable expenses hereunder, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, experts and counsel as Owner Trustee may
employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and its duties hereunder and under the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that Owner Trustee shall have no recourse to the assets pledged under the Indenture with respect to
any payments pursuant to this Section 7.01 and Owner Trustee’s right to enforce such obligation shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.08. 

  
 13 









 Section 7.02. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law,
Transferor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Owner Trustee (as such and in its individual capacity) and its successors, assigns, directors, officers, agents, employees and servants (each an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the
“Indemnified Parties”) from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, taxes, claims, actions and suits, and any and all reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses)
of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, “Expenses”) which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Owner Trustee or any Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of the Transaction Documents,
the Trust Estate, the acceptance and administration of the Trust Estate or any action or inaction of Owner Trustee, provided that Transferor shall not be liable for or required to indemnify any Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or
resulting from any of the matters described in the third sentence of Section 6.01 or Expenses for which indemnification is actually received under other Transaction Documents; provided, further that Transferor shall not be liable for or
required to indemnify an Indemnified Party from and against expenses arising or resulting from (i) the Indemnified Party’s fraud, negligence or willful misconduct, or (ii) the inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained in
Section 6.03. No Indemnified Party shall have recourse to the assets pledged under the Indenture with respect to any Expenses payable by Transferor pursuant to this Section 7.02. An Indemnified Party’s right to enforce such obligation
shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.08. The indemnities contained in this Section 7.02 shall survive the resignation and termination of Owner Trustee or the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 7.03. Payments to Owner Trustee. Any amounts paid to Owner Trustee or any other Indemnified Party pursuant to this
Article VII shall not be construed to be a part of the Trust Estate.

rights of all Series of Notes to receive payments from the Trust have terminated. After satisfaction of liabilities of the Trust as provided by applicable law, any money or other property held as part of the Trust Estate following such distribution
shall be distributed to Transferor. The bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, termination, death or incapacity of Transferor shall not (i) operate to terminate this Agreement or annul, dissolve or terminate the Trust, or (ii) entitle

 ARTICLE IX 
 SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES

 Section 9.01. Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee. Owner Trustee shall at all times be a Person
satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Act; authorized to exercise trust powers; having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities; and having (or having a parent which has) a rating of at least Baa3 by Moody’s, or at least BBB- by Standard & Poor’s or at least BBB- by
Fitch, or otherwise satisfactory to each Rating Agency. If such Person shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purpose of this
Section 9.01, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.01, Owner Trustee shall resign 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 one copy to the successor Owner Trustee. If no successor Owner Trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within
60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee at the expense of Transferor may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee. 

If at any time Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.01 and shall fail to resign
after written request therefor by Transferor, or if at any time Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer
shall take charge or control of Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then Transferor may, but shall not be required to, remove Owner Trustee. If Transferor shall remove Owner
Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, Transferor shall promptly (i) appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner
Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee and (ii) pay all amounts owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee in its individual capacity. 

  
 15 









 Any resignation or removal of Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee
pursuant to any of the 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 successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance,
shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally named as Owner Trustee. The predecessor Owner Trustee shall upon payment of its fees and
expenses deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and Transferor and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
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. 
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to 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. 
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section 9.03, such successor Owner Trustee shall file an amendment to the Certificate of Trust with the Secretary of State
of the State of Delaware identifying the name and principal place of business of such successor Owner Trustee in the State of Delaware. 
 Section 9.04. Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Person into which Owner Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which Owner Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the 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. 

  
 16 









 Section 9.05. Appointment of Co-Trustee or
Separate Trustee. Notwithstanding any other 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. 

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. 

  
 17 









 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.

executed and delivered by Transferor and Owner Trustee, without the consent of any of the Noteholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions in this Agreement or to add any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions raised under this Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that such amendment will not, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of Transferor addressed and delivered to
Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely affect the interest of any Noteholder. In addition, this Agreement may be amended from time to time, by a written amendment duly executed and delivered by Transferor and Owner Trustee,
without the consent of any of the Noteholders, and upon satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or modifying in any
manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that such amendment will not (a) as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of Transferor addressed and delivered to Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, materially and adversely
affect the interest of any Noteholder and (b) as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel addressed and delivered to Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, cause the Trust to be classified as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as
a corporation for federal income tax purposes; provided, further, that Section 2.03 of this Agreement may be amended only with the consent of the Holders of Notes evidencing not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes.
Additionally, notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be amended by Transferor and Owner Trustee without the consent of Indenture Trustee or any of the Noteholders to add, modify or eliminate such provisions as may be necessary
or advisable in order to enable all or a portion of the Trust (i) to qualify as, and to permit an election to be made to cause the Trust to be treated as, a “financial asset securitization investment trust” as described in the
provisions of Section 860L of the Code, and (ii) to avoid the imposition of state or local income or franchise taxes imposed on the Trust’s property or its income; provided, however, that (A) Transferor delivers to Indenture
Trustee and Owner Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the proposed amendments meet the requirements set forth in this subsection, (B) the Rating Agency Condition shall have been satisfied with respect to such amendment and
(C) such amendment does not affect the rights, benefits, protections, privileges, immunities, duties or obligations of Owner Trustee hereunder.

amendment duly executed and delivered by Transferor and Owner Trustee, with the consent of Indenture Trustee and the Holders of Notes evidencing more than
66 2/3% of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the
rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that without the consent of all Noteholders, no such amendment shall (a) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or accelerate or delay the timing of distributions that are required to be
made for the benefit of the Noteholders or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage of the Outstanding Amount of the Notes, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment; provided, further that such amendment will not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel addressed and delivered to Owner Trustee and Indenture Trustee, cause the Trust to be classified as an association (or a publicly traded partnership) taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

 Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent, Transferor shall furnish written notification of the
substance of such amendment or consent to Indenture Trustee and each Rating Agency. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent
of the Noteholders pursuant to this Section 10.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof 

Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with
the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. 
 Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate of Transferor to the effect that the conditions to amendment have been satisfied. 

Owner Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into, and unless it has consented thereto in writing shall not be bound by, any
amendment which affects Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties, benefits, protections, privileges or immunities (as such or in its individual capacity) under this Agreement or otherwise.
