        For
avoidance of doubt it is expressly understood and agreed that, to the extent the UCC is revised subsequent to the date hereof such that the definition of any of the foregoing terms
included in the description of Collateral is changed, the parties hereto desire that any property which is included in such changed definitions which would not otherwise be included in the foregoing
grant on the date hereof be included in such grant immediately upon the effective date of such revision, it being the 

2

 

intention of the Issuer that the description of Collateral set forth above be construed to include the broadest range of assets. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the foregoing
grant is intended to apply immediately on the date hereof to all Collateral to fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law regardless of whether any particular item of Collateral is currently subject
to the UCC. 

        The
Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes the Indenture Trustee and the Series Enhancer at any time, and from time to time, to file, without the signature of the Issuer in any filing
office in any jurisdiction (necessary or desirable to perfect the security interests and Liens granted herein or in any other Related Documents) any financing statements (including any such financing
statements claiming a security interest in any or all assets of the Issuer), continuation statements and amendments thereto that (i) indicate or describe the Collateral regardless of whether
any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the UCC, in the same manner as described herein or in any other manner as the Indenture Trustee or the
Series Enhancer may determine in its sole discretion is necessary or desirable to ensure the perfection of the security interests and Liens granted herein and (ii) provide any other information
required by Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including whether the Issuer is an organization, the type of
organization and any organizational identification number issued to the Issuer. The Issuer agrees to furnish any such information to the Indenture Trustee or the Series Enhancer promptly upon the
Indenture Trustee's or the Series Enhancer's request. The Issuer also ratifies its authorization for the Indenture Trustee or the Series Enhancer to have filed in any jurisdiction any like initial
financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to create an obligation of the Indenture Trustee to file any financing
statements, continuation statements or amendments thereto.

        Section 201.    Authorization of Notes.    (a)    The number of Series or Classes of Notes which may
be created by this Indenture is not limited; provided, however, that, the issuance of any Series of Notes shall not result in, or with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both would result in, the occurrence of an Event of Default or Trigger Event. The aggregate principal amount of Notes of each Series which may be issued, authenticated
and delivered under this Indenture is not limited except as shall be set forth in any Supplement and as restricted by the provisions of this Indenture. 

        (b)  The
Notes issuable under this Indenture shall be issued in such Series, and such Class or Classes within a Series, as may from time to time be created by Supplement
pursuant to this Indenture. Each Series shall be created by a different Supplement and shall be designated, upon the face thereof, to differentiate the Notes of such Series from the Notes of any other
Series. All of the Notes of a Series shall be identical except for the differences in registration information and denomination. The Issuer intends that each such Note shall constitute a "security"
within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC. 

        (c)  Upon
satisfaction of and compliance with the requirements and conditions to closing set forth in the related Supplement, Notes of the Series to be executed and delivered
on a particular Series Issuance Date pursuant to such related Supplement, may be executed by the Issuer and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for authentication following the execution and delivery
of the related Supplement creating such Series or from time to time thereafter, and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Notes upon an Issuer request set forth in an Officer's
Certificate of the Issuer signed by one of its Authorized Signatories, without further action on the part of the Issuer. 

        Section 202.    Form of Notes; Global Notes.    

        (a)  Notes
of any Series or Class may be issued, authenticated and delivered, at the option of the Issuer, as Public Global Notes, Rule 144A Global Notes, or as
Definitive Notes or as may otherwise be set forth in a Supplement and shall be substantially in the form of the exhibits 

4

 

attached to the related Supplement. Notes of each Series shall be dated the date of their authentication and shall bear interest at such rate, be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and
interest on such date or dates, and shall contain such other terms and provisions as shall be established in the related Supplement. Except as otherwise provided in any Supplement, the Notes shall be
issued in minimum denominations of $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that one Note of each Class may be issued in a nonstandard denomination. 

        (b)  If
the Issuer shall choose to issue Public Global Notes or Rule 144A Global Notes, such notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Public Global Notes or one or
more Rule 144A Global Notes which (i) shall represent, and shall be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to, the aggregate principal amount of all Notes to be issued hereunder,
(ii) shall be delivered as one or more Notes held by the Book Entry Custodian, or, if appointed to hold such Notes as provided below, the Notes shall be registered in the name of the Depositary
or its nominee, (iii) shall be substantially in the form of the exhibits attached to the related Supplement, with such changes therein as may be necessary to reflect that each such Note is a
Global Note, and (iv) shall each bear a legend substantially to the effect included in the form of the exhibits attached to the related Supplement. 

        (c)  Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Section 202 or of Section 205, unless and until a Global Note is exchanged in whole for Definitive Notes, a
Global Note may be transferred, in whole, but not
in part, and in the manner provided in this Section 202, only by (i) the Depositary to a nominee of such Depositary, or (ii) by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or
another nominee of such Depositary or (iii) by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Issuer or to a nominee of such successor Depositary or
in the manner specified in Section 202(d). The Depositary shall order the Note Registrar to authenticate and deliver any Book Entry Notes and any Global Note for each Class of Notes having an
aggregate initial outstanding principal balance equal to the initial outstanding balance of such Class. Note Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Notes through the
book-entry facilities of the Depositary. Without limiting the foregoing, any Note Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests, if any, in Public Global Notes only through Depositary
Participants. 

        (d)  If
(i) the Issuer elects to issue Definitive Notes, (ii) the Depositary for the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes at any time notifies the
Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary of the Notes or if at any time the Depositary shall no longer be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and any other
applicable statute or regulation, and a successor Depositary is not appointed or approved by the Issuer within 90 days after the Issuer receives such notice or becomes aware of such condition, as the
case may be, (iii) the Indenture Trustee, at the direction of the Noteholders representing more than 50% of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes, elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depositary or (iv) after an Event of Default or a Manager Default, Noteholders notify the Depositary, or Book Entry Custodian, as the case may be, in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depositary, or the Book Entry Custodian, as the case may be, is no longer in the Noteholders' best interest, upon the request of the Noteholders, the
Issuer will promptly execute, and the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate evidencing such determination by the Issuer, will promptly authenticate and make available for
delivery, Definitive Notes without coupons, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note then outstanding in exchange for such
Global Note or as an original issuance of Notes and this Section 202(d) shall no longer be applicable to the Notes. Upon the exchange of the Global Notes for such Definitive Notes without
coupons, in authorized denominations, such Global Notes shall be canceled by the Indenture 

5

 

Trustee. All Definitive Notes shall be issued without coupons. Such Definitive Notes in definitive form issued in exchange of the Global Notes pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall be
registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary in the case of an exchange or the Note Registrar in the case of an original issuance, pursuant to instructions from its
direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely on any such instructions furnished by the Depositary or the Note
Registrar, as the case may be and shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions. The Indenture Trustee shall make such Notes available for delivery to the Persons in whose names
such Notes are so registered. 

        (e)  As
long as the Notes outstanding are represented by one or more Global Notes: 

          (i)  the
Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee may deal with the Depositary for all purposes (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes) as the
authorized representative of the Note Owners; 

        (ii)  the
rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and
the Depositary and/or the Depositary Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued, the Depositary will make book-entry transfers among the Depositary Participants and receive and
transmit payments of principal of, and interest on, the Notes to such Depositary Participants; and 

        (iii)  whenever
this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the
voting rights of a particular series, the Depositary shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or Depositary
Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes (or Class of Notes) and has delivered such instruction to the Indenture Trustee. 

        (f)    Whenever
a notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Notes have been issued in definitive form to Note Owners,
the Indenture Trustee shall give all such notices and communications to the Depositary. 

        (g)  The
Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Book Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance with the agreement that it has with the
Depositary authorizing it to act as such. The Book Entry Custodian may, and, if it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by written instrument delivered to
the Issuer and the Depositary, any other transfer agent (including the Depositary or any successor Depositary) to act as Book Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book Entry
Custodian and the Depositary or any successor Depositary may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book Entry Custodian shall not be relieved of any
of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any such appointment of other than the Depositary. If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor
Indenture Trustee or, if it so elects, the Depositary shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's duties as Book Entry Custodian. The Issuer shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies
of, any Notes held as Book-Entry Notes by the Book Entry Custodian. 

        (h)  No
transfer of any Class of Note or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act,
and effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. If a transfer of any
Definitive Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial 

6

 

issuance thereof or a transfer thereof by the Depositary or one of its Affiliates), then the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may
conclusively rely upon) either: (i) a certificate from such Noteholder substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto or such other certification reasonably acceptable to
the Indenture Trustee and a certificate from such Noteholder's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto or such other certification reasonably acceptable to
the Indenture Trustee; or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Issuer
or any Affiliate thereof) to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act, together with the written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such
transfer from the Noteholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or such Noteholder's prospective transferee on which such Opinion of Counsel is based. If such a transfer of any interest in a
Book-Entry Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act, the transferor will be deemed to have made each of the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit B hereto
in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Note and the transferee will be deemed to have made each of the representations and warranties set forth in either Exhibit B
hereto in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Note. None of the Depositary, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any
Class of Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note or interest therein without
registration or qualification. Any Noteholder or Note Owner desiring to effect such a transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Depositary, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Note
Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws. 

        Section 203.    Execution; Non-Recourse Obligation.    The Notes shall be executed on behalf of the Issuer by
manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Signatory of the Issuer. The Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication by the Indenture Trustee. 

        In
case any Authorized Signatory of the Issuer whose signature or facsimile signature shall appear on the Notes shall cease to be an Authorized Signatory of the Issuer before the
authentication by the Indenture Trustee or the delivery of such Notes, such signature or facsimile signature shall nevertheless be valid, sufficient and binding for all purposes. 

        All
Notes and the interest thereon shall be limited recourse obligations of the Issuer and shall be secured by all of the Issuer's right, title and interest in the Collateral. The Notes
shall never constitute obligations of the Indenture Trustee, the Contributor, the Manager, the Seller, the Series Enhancer or of any shareholder or any Affiliate of any other Person (other than the
Issuer) or any officers, directors, employees or agents of any thereof, and no recourse may be had under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of this Indenture, any Supplement or of any
Notes, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, against any incorporator or against any past, present, or future owner, partner of an owner or any officer, employee or director
thereof or of any successor entity, or any other Person, either directly or through the Issuer, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment
or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed that this Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder and under any Supplements hereto are solely obligations of the Issuer, and that no such
personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, any other Person under or by reason of this Indenture, any Supplement or any Notes or implied therefrom, or for any claim
based thereon or in respect thereof, all such liability and any and all such claims being hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this
Indenture and the issuance of such Notes. Except as may be provided in any Supplement, no Person other than the Issuer shall be liable for any obligation of the Issuer under this Indenture or any Note
or any losses incurred by any Noteholder. 

7

 

        Section 204.    Certificate of Authentication.    No Notes shall be secured hereby or entitled to the benefit
hereof or shall be or become valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there shall be endorsed thereon by manual signature a certificate of authentication by the Indenture Trustee, substantially in
the form set forth in the form of Note attached to the related Supplement. Such certificate on any Note issued by the Issuer shall be conclusive evidence and the only competent evidence that it has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

        At
the written direction of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Notes. The Notes shall be dated the date of authentication and delivery thereto by the
Indenture Trustee. It shall not be necessary that the same Authorized Signatory of the Indenture Trustee execute the certificate of authentication on each of the Notes. 

        Section 205.    Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Notes.    

        (a)  The
Indenture Trustee shall keep at its Corporate Trust Office books in written form for the registration and transfer or exchange of the Notes (the "Note Register").
The Issuer hereby appoints the Indenture Trustee as its registrar (the "Note Registrar") and transfer agent to keep such books and make such registrations and transfers or exchanges as are hereinafter
set forth in this Section 205 and also authorizes and directs the Indenture Trustee to provide, upon written request by the Deal Agent or the Series Enhancer, a copy of such registration record
to the Deal Agent or the Series Enhancer, as the case may be. The names and addresses of the Holders of all Notes and all transfers of, and the names and addresses of the transferee of, all Notes will
be registered in such Note Register. The Person in whose name any Note is registered shall be deemed and treated as the owner and Holder thereof for all purposes of this Indenture, and the Indenture
Trustee, any related Series Enhancer and the Issuer shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. If a Person other than the Indenture Trustee is appointed by the Issuer to
maintain the Note Register, the Issuer will give the Indenture Trustee, the Deal Agent and any Series Enhancer prompt written notice of such appointment and of the location, and any change in the
location, of the successor note registrar, and the Indenture Trustee, the Deal Agent and any related Series Enhancer shall have the right to inspect the Note Register at all reasonable times and to
obtain copies thereof, and the Indenture Trustee shall have the right to conclusively rely upon a certificate executed on behalf of such successor note registrar by an officer thereof as to the names
and addresses of the Noteholders and Series, Class and the principal amounts and number of such Notes. 

        (b)  Payments
of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any Note shall be payable on each Payment Date only to the registered Holder thereof on the Record Date
immediately preceding such Payment Date. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each Note shall be payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee in immediately available
funds in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time for payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any
provision in any Note to the contrary, if so requested by the registered Holder of any Note by written notice to the Indenture Trustee, all amounts payable to such registered Holder may be paid either
(i) by crediting the amount to be distributed to such registered Holder to an account maintained by such registered Holder with the Indenture Trustee or by transferring such amount by wire to
such other bank in the United States, including a Federal
Reserve Bank, as shall have been specified in such notice, for credit to the account of such registered Holder maintained at such bank, or (ii) by mailing a check to such address as such Holder
shall have specified in such notice, in either case (subject to the provisions of Section 207 hereof) without any presentment or surrender of such Note to the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate
Trust Office of the Indenture Trustee. 

        (c)  Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the Corporate Trust Officer and subject to the conditions of this Section 205 the Issuer shall execute
and the Indenture Trustee 

8

 

or its agent, upon written request, shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same class, of any authorized denominations
and of a like aggregate original principal amount. 

        (d)  All
Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and
entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture and any Supplement, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

        (e)  Every
Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee duly executed, by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 

        (f)    Any
service charge, fees or expenses made or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee for any such registration, discharge from registration or exchange referred to in
this Section 205 shall be paid by the Noteholder. The Indenture Trustee or the Issuer may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax expense or other governmental charge
payable in connection therewith. 

        (g)  If
Notes are issued or exchanged in definitive form under Section 202, such Notes will not be registered by the Indenture Trustee unless each prospective
Noteholder acquiring a Note, each prospective transferee acquiring a Note and each prospective owner (or transferee thereof) of a beneficial interest in Notes acquiring such beneficial interest
provides the Manager, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any successor Manager with a written representation that the statements in either subsections (1) or (2) of Section 208 is an
accurate representation as to all sources of funds to be used to pay the purchase price of the Notes. 

        (h)  No
transfer of a Note shall be deemed effective unless the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities or "Blue Sky" laws are complied with, or such transfer is exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act and such laws. In the event that a
transfer is to be made without
registration or qualification, such Noteholder's prospective transferee shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an investment letter substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto (the
"Investment Letter"). The Indenture Trustee is not under any obligation to register the Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to
bear any expense with respect to such registration by any other Person or monitor compliance of any transfer with the securities laws of the United States, regulations promulgated in connection
thereto or ERISA unless the Notes are issued or exchanged in definitive form under Section 202. 

        (i)    The
transfer restrictions set forth in clauses (g) and (h) of Section 205 hereof shall not be applicable to any transfer of any Note (or an interest
therein) (i) by VFCC to one or more Liquidity Banks in accordance with the provisions of the Notes Liquidity Agreement or the Certificate Liquidity Agreement or (ii) by any Noteholder to
any Series Enhancer. 

        Section 206.    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes.    (a)    If (i) any mutilated
Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar, or the Indenture Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there
is delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer or the Series Enhancer such security or indemnity as the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer and the Series Enhancer may require to hold the Indenture
Trustee, the Issuer and the Series Enhancer (and any agent of any of them) harmless (the unsecured indemnity of a Rated Institutional Noteholder being deemed satisfactory for such purpose), then the
Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note of the same Series
and Class and maturity and of 

9

 

like terms as the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated
Note, shall have become, or within thirty (30) days shall be or become due and payable, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable instead of issuing a
replacement Note. 

        (b)  If,
after the delivery of such replacement Note, or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser
of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover upon the security or
indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any and all loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith. 

        (c)  The
Indenture Trustee and the Issuer may, for each new Note authenticated and delivered under the provisions of this Section 206, require the advance payment by
the Noteholder of the expenses, including counsel fees, service charges and any tax or governmental charge which may be incurred by the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer. Any Note issued under the
provisions of this Section 206 in lieu of any Note alleged to be destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen, shall be equally and proportionately entitled to the benefits of this Indenture with all
other Notes of the same Series and Class. The provisions of this Section 206 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the
replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 

        Section 207.    Delivery, Retention and Cancellation of Notes.    Each Noteholder is required, and hereby
agrees, to surrender to the Indenture Trustee, prior to the Expected Final Payment Date, any Note on which the final payment due thereon has been made. Any such Note as to which the Indenture Trustee
has made or holds the final payment thereon shall be deemed canceled and unless any unreimbursed payment on such Note has been made by a Series Enhancer, shall no longer be Outstanding for any purpose
of this Indenture, whether or not such Note is ever returned to the Indenture Trustee. Matured Notes delivered upon final payment to the Indenture Trustee and any Notes transferred or exchanged for
other Notes shall be canceled and disposed of by the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its policy of disposal and the Indenture Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Issuer such canceled Notes upon
reasonable prior written request. If the Indenture Trustee shall acquire, for its own account, any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness
represented by such Notes. If the Issuer shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes. Notes which have
been canceled by the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed paid and discharged for all purposes under this Indenture. 

        Section 208.    ERISA Deemed Representations.    Each prospective initial Noteholder acquiring Notes, each
prospective transferee acquiring the Notes, and each prospective owner (or transferee thereof) of a beneficial interest in Notes (each a "Prospective Owner") will be deemed to have represented by such
purchase to the Issuer, Variable Funding Capital Corporation, the Indenture Trustee, the Manager and any successor Manager that either (1) it is not acquiring the Notes with the assets of a
Plan; or (2) the acquisition and holding of the Notes will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406(a) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. 

        Section 209.    Determination of Requisite Global Majority.    A Requisite Global Majority shall exist with
respect to any action proposed to be taken pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or any Supplement if Control Parties of all Series then Outstanding shall approve or direct such proposed action (in
making such a determination, each Control Party shall be deemed to have voted the entire Existing Commitment of the related Series in favor of, or in opposition to, such proposed action, as the case
may be). 

10

 

        Except
where the Indenture specifically states otherwise, and when voting by Noteholders is permitted, the Indenture Trustee, provided it has sent out notices in accordance with this
Indenture, may act as directed by the Control Party to such request for amendment or written direction. In addition, the Indenture Trustee shall not have any liability to the Control Party with
respect to any action taken pursuant to such notice if the Control Party does not respond to such notice in writing within the time period set forth in such notice. By acceptance of a Note, each
Noteholder and Note Owner agree to the foregoing provisions.

    PAYMENT OF NOTES; ESTABLISHMENT OF ACCOUNTS;
  CONTROL REQUIREMENTS; STATEMENTS TO NOTEHOLDERS    
  

        Section 301.    Principal and Interest.    Distributions of principal, premium, if any, and interest on any
Series or Class of Notes shall be made to Noteholders of each Series and Class as set forth in Section 302 of this Indenture and the related Supplement. The Overdue Rate for any Note of any
Series shall be equal to the sum of (i) two percent (2%) per annum and (ii) the interest rate per annum payable on such Note prior to the event giving rise to such Default
Interest or, if interest payments on the affected Series of Notes is calculated based on a variable rate of interest, the interest rate that will be payable as a consequence of such default. If
interest or principal amounts are paid by a Series Enhancer, then the Default Interest shall be owed to the Series Enhancer and shall not be paid to applicable Noteholders of such Series. If the
Series Enhancer shall have failed to pay interest or principal amounts when due in accordance with the terms of any applicable Enhancement Agreement, then any such Default Interest shall be payable to
the Noteholders of such Series. 

        Section 302.    Trust Account.    (a)    On or prior to the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall
establish and maintain the Trust Account with Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association until all Outstanding Obligations and all amounts owing by the Issuer pursuant to the terms of the
Enhancement Agreement and each Interest Rate Swap Agreement have been paid in full. The Trust Account shall be in the name of the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders, the
Certificateholders, any Letter of Credit Bank, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider and any Series Enhancer, pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee shall
establish any additional Trust Accounts or other bank or investment accounts without the prior written consent of the Deal Agent and any Series Enhancer. 

        (b)  The
Issuer shall cause all Head Lessor Collections (whether received directly by the Issuer, distributed to Issuer from the Head Lessee Collection Account or received
from the Lockbox Account or the ABS Lockbox Account) to be deposited into the Trust Account. After payment in full of all Head Lessee Secured Obligations, the Issuer agrees that it will cause amounts
on deposit from time to time in the ABS Lockbox Account to be deposited into the Trust Account. 

        (c)  If
the Head Lessee shall not have exercised the Return Option, then on (x) each Payment Date and (y) after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of
Default, each additional Business Day on which the Control Party (in its sole discretion) directs the Indenture Trustee to make such distributions, the Indenture Trustee (based on the Manager Report
delivered to it pursuant to the Management Agreement), shall distribute funds from the Trust Account by wire transfer in immediately available
funds in an amount equal to the Available Distribution Amount to the following Persons in the following order of priority: 

        (1)  To
the Indenture Trustee, an amount equal to all Indenture Trustee's Fees and Indenture Trustee Indemnified Amounts then due and payable for all Series then Outstanding,
not to exceed $20,000 annually for each Series then Outstanding; 

11

 

        (2)  To
the Series Enhancer, an amount equal to the Premium then due and payable; 

        (3)  To
each Interest Rate Hedge Provider (on a pro rata basis based on the relative amounts owing), an amount equal to any
scheduled payments (other than termination payments) and any accrued interest thereon then due and payable pursuant to the terms of any Interest Rate Swap Agreement then in effect; 

        (4)  To
the Series Account for each Series of Notes then Outstanding, an amount equal to the Interest Payments (including Reimbursement Amounts payable to any Series Enhancer
for interest previously paid as provided for in the related Enhancement Agreement) for each such Series. If sufficient funds do not exist to pay in full all such amounts, the remaining Available
Distribution Amount shall be allocated among the Series of Notes in the same proportion as the ratio of (x) the Interest Payments and Reimbursement Amounts of a particular Series of Notes then
Outstanding to (y) the aggregate Interest Payments and Reimbursement Amounts of all Series of Notes then Outstanding; 

        (5)  To
(A) the Certificateholders for any Certificates then Outstanding, an amount equal to the Limited Partner Preferred Return then due and payable, (B) the
applicable Series Enhancer, an amount equal to all Reimbursement Amounts owing to such Series Enhancer with respect to the Limited Partner Preferred Return, and (C) to the General Partner, an
amount equal to the General Partner Fee then due and payable. If sufficient funds do not exist to pay in full all such Limited Partner Preferred Return, Reimbursement Amounts and General Partner Fee,
the remaining Available Distribution Amount shall be allocated among the Certificateholders, the Series Enhancer and the General Partner in the same proportion as the ratio of (x) the amount
owing to such Person to (y) the amount owing to all such Persons; 

        (6)  To
the Series Account for each Series of Notes then Outstanding, an amount equal to the sum of the Commitment Fee Payments and Series Enhancer Commitment Fees for each
such Series then due and payable. If sufficient funds do not exist to pay in full all such Commitment Fee Payments and Series Enhancer Commitment Fees, the remaining Available Distribution Amount
shall be allocated among the Series in the same proportion as the ratio of (x) the amount owing to such Series to (y) the amount owing to all Series then Outstanding; 

        (7)  To
each Certificateholder of each Certificate then Outstanding, an amount equal to the Limited Partner Availability Fee then due and payable. If sufficient funds do not
exist to pay in full all such Limited Partner Availability Fees, the remaining Available Distribution Amount shall be allocated among the Certificateholders in the same proportion as the ratio of
(x) the Limited Partner Availability Fee owing to a particular Certificate then Outstanding to (y) the aggregate Limited Partner Availability Fees owing to all Certificates then
Outstanding; 

        (8)  To
each Interest Rate Hedge Provider (on a pro rata basis based on the relative amounts owing), an amount equal to any
termination payment and interest accrued thereon, then due and payable pursuant to the terms of any Interest Rate Swap Agreement then in effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such
termination payments resulted solely from an Issuer Swap Default; provided, however, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing,
then the amounts otherwise payable to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider pursuant to this clause (8) shall be paid pursuant to clause (11) below; 

        (9)  99.5%
(or if an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, then 100%) of the remaining Available Distribution Amount to be distributed: (A) to the
Series Account for each Series of Notes (on a pro rata basis based on the relative amounts then Outstanding), for application to the unpaid Principal
Payment Amounts, (B) all Reimbursement Amounts then owing to the Series Enhancer with respect to principal amounts on the Notes until such 

12

 

Reimbursement Amounts shall have been paid in full and (C) to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider (on a pro rata basis based on the relative
amounts then owing), the amount of all Note Partial Termination Amounts then due and payable; provided, however, that if an Event of Default has
occurred and is then continuing, then the amounts otherwise payable to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider pursuant to this clause (C) shall be paid pursuant to clause (11) below. In
determining the amounts owing pursuant to clauses (A), (B) and (C), the following rules shall apply: (i) when determining the amounts owing pursuant to clause (C), such
amount shall give effect to amounts to be paid under clause (A) and any other payments of principal on any Notes to be made on such Payment Date, (ii) subject to clause (iii)
below, if sufficient funds do not exist to pay in full all such amounts, the remaining Available Distribution Amount shall be allocated among such Persons in the same proportion as the ratio of
(x) the amount owing to such Person bears to (y) the amount owing to all such Persons, and (iii) if there are insufficient funds to pay the amounts owing pursuant to
clauses (A), (B) and (C), then the Principal Payment Amounts and Reimbursement Amounts required to be distributed under clauses (A) and (B) shall be reduced to the extent necessary so
that the amount of such Principal Payment Amounts and Reimbursement Amounts when combined with the amount of any amounts to be distributed under clause (C) above (after giving effect to such
reductions) will be equal to the amount to be distributed under this clause (9) on such Payment Date or, after an Event of Default, any such additional date; 

        (10) all
of the remaining Available Distribution Amount to be distributed: (A) to each Certificateholder (on a pro
rata basis based on the relative amounts then Outstanding), for application to the unpaid Partnership Preferred Capital Payments, (B) to each Series Enhancer, all
Reimbursement Amounts owing to such Series Enhancer with respect to the Certificates until such Reimbursement Amounts shall have been paid in full and (C) to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider

attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Issuer and in the name of the Issuer or in its own name, from time to time, for the purpose of carrying out the

        (c)  The
powers conferred on the Indenture Trustee hereunder are solely to protect the Indenture Trustee's interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it

connection with such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the rate specified in the related Supplement, shall be payable by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee on demand and
shall constitute additional Outstanding Obligations secured hereby.

directed by the Control Party at any time at which it is so required to act hereunder or under any other Related Document, or if the Indenture Trustee shall fail to deliver a completed Drawing
Certificate to the Letter of Credit Bank as and when required under Section 406, then, in each case, the Control Party shall be entitled to take such action directly in its own capacity or on behalf
of the Indenture Trustee. If the Indenture Trustee fails to act as directed by the Control Party when so required to act under any Related Document, then the Indenture Trustee shall, upon the request
of the Control Party, irrevocably appoint the Control Party, and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and
authority in the place and stead of the Indenture Trustee and in the name of the Indenture Trustee or in its own name, to take any and all actions that the Indenture Trustee is authorized to take
under any Related Document, to the extent the Indenture Trustee has failed to take such action when and as required under such Related Document. 

        Section 404.    Release of Security Interest.    The Indenture Trustee, upon written notice from the Manager (a
copy of which notice shall be delivered to the Deal Agent, each Series Enhancer and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider at least ten (10) days prior to the effective date of such release) shall,
and is hereby authorized to, release from the Lien of this Indenture and deliver a statement of such release in the form of the Indenture Trustee Certificate attached hereto as
Exhibit A-2: (i) those Interest Rate Swap Agreements identified by the Manager; provided that, after giving effect to any such
release of an Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Issuer shall be in compliance with the requirement of Section 632 hereof; and (ii) any Owner Compressors identified by the Manager
(regardless of whether such Owner Compressors are Eligible Compressors or Ineligible Compressors) that have been replaced, substituted, sold, transferred, exchanged or otherwise disposed of in
accordance with the provisions of Section 608(b) (ii) hereof; provided, that, in each case, (x) the Manager shall have delivered to
the Indenture Trustee and the Series Enhancer an Officer's Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 certifying that such release complies with the requirements hereof and

limit the rights of an Interest Rate Hedge Provider to reduce the notional balance of the Interest Rate Hedge Agreement in accordance with the terms of the applicable Interest Rate Hedge Agreement. 

        The
Indenture Trustee will, promptly upon receipt of such certificate from the Manager (and at the Issuer's expense), execute and deliver to the Issuer, the Seller or the Manager, as
appropriate, each Series Enhancer, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and the Deal Agent, a non-recourse certificate of release substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto and such additional
documents and instruments as that Person may reasonably request (and prepare and file) to evidence the termination and release from the Lien of this Indenture of such Compressor and the other related
items of Collateral.

        The
Indenture Trustee shall make the distributions requested by the Manager pursuant to Section 7.2(b) of the Head Lessee Security Agreement until such time as (x) it
receives written direction from the Issuer that such distributions are no longer permitted or (y) a Head Lease Event of Default or a Manager Default shall have occurred and be continuing or
(z) a Manager Termination Date shall have occurred (unless, in the case of this clause (z), the Control Party shall have instructed the Indenture Trustee that it shall make such
distributions). 

        Section 405.    Administration of Collateral.    (a)    The Indenture Trustee shall promptly as
practicable notify the Noteholders, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, each Series Enhancer and the Deal Agent of any Manager Default of which a Corporate Trust Officer has received written notice. If
a Manager Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with the written direction of the Control Party, shall deliver to the Manager (with a copy to the
Deal Agent, each Rating Agency, each Series Enhancer and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider) a Manager Termination Notice terminating the Manager of its responsibilities in accordance with the terms of
the Management Agreement. Upon receipt of such Manager Termination Notice, the Back-Up Manager shall, subject to the limitations set forth in the Back-Up Management Agreement, assume the duties of the
Manager under the Management Agreement. If the Back-up Manager is prohibited by Applicable Law from serving as the Manager (and delivers such documents and opinions evidencing such inability as set
forth in the Back-up Management Agreement) and if the Back-up Manager is unable to locate and qualify a replacement Manager within sixty (60) days after the date of delivery of the Manager
Termination Notice, then the Control Party may appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint as a successor Manager, a Person reasonably acceptable to the Control Party, having a
net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and whose regular business includes leasing of natural gas compressors. In connection with the appointment of a replacement Manager, the Indenture Trustee or
Deal Agent may, with the written consent of the Control Party, make such arrangements for the compensation of such replacement out of Head Lessor Collections as the Indenture Trustee, each Interest
Rate Hedge Provider, each Series Enhancer, the Deal Agent and such Replacement Manager shall agree. The Indenture Trustee shall take such action, consistent with the Management Agreement and the other
Related Documents, as shall be necessary to effectuate the appointment and installation of the Back-up Manager or another Replacement Manager. 

        (b)  Upon
a Corporate Trust Officer's obtaining the receipt of written notice by the Indenture Trustee that a Warranty Purchase Amount has not been paid when due pursuant to
the terms of the Related Documents, the Indenture Trustee shall notify the Control Party of such event and shall enforce such repurchase obligations at the direction of the Control Party. 

        (c)  The
Indenture Trustee shall as promptly as practicable (and in any event within three (3) Business Days after the Indenture Trustee's receipt hereof) notify and
deliver to the Control Party (and if the Control Party is not the Series Enhancer, the Series Enhancer) a copy of each notice or other written communication received by the Indenture Trustee under the
Intercreditor Agreement. 

        Section 406.    Draw on Letter of Credit in January 2013.    If the Head Lessee exercises the Return Option on
the Termination Date in accordance with Section 23 of the Head Lease and the amounts on deposit in the Rent Reserve Account are less than the Aggregate Reserve Amount, then the Indenture
Trustee shall, on the Termination Date (or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable, but in any case prior to the expiration date for the Letter of Credit), submit a completed Drawing Certificate
to the Letter of Credit Bank requesting a drawing under the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Available Drawing Amount.

an "advance" under any Supplement is made) to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, the Series Enhancer and the Interest Rate Hedge Providers that: 

        Section 501.    Existence.    Issuer is a Delaware limited partnership duly formed and validly existing and is
duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires it to qualify, except where the failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect upon the Issuer,
the Collateral or the ability of the Issuer to perform its obligations under the Related Documents to which it is a party. Since the date of formation of the Issuer, the Issuer has not conducted
business under any other name and does not have any trade names, or "doing business under" or "doing business as" names. The Issuer has not reorganized in any jurisdiction (whether the United States,
any state therein, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam or any possession or territory of the United States, or any foreign country or state) other than the State of Delaware. The General
Partner is a Delaware corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing and is qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires it to qualify,

deliver this Indenture and the other Related Documents to which it is a party; Issuer is and will continue to be duly authorized to borrow monies hereunder; and Issuer is and will continue to be
authorized to perform its obligations under this Indenture and under the other Related Documents. The execution, delivery and performance by Issuer of this Indenture and the other Related Documents to
which it is a party and the borrowings hereunder do not and will not require any consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, partner or any other Person which has not already been obtained. 

        Section 503.    Due Qualification.    The Issuer is qualified as a foreign partnership company in each
jurisdiction and has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals as required under Applicable Law, in each case, where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or approved, could reasonably be
expected to
materially and adversely affect the ability of the Issuer to perform its obligations under and comply with the terms of this Indenture and any other Related Document to which it is a party. 

        Section 504.    No Conflict; Legal Compliance.    The execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture and
each of the other Related Documents and the execution, delivery and payment of the Notes will not: (a) contravene any provision of Issuer's partnership agreement; (b) contravene,
conflict with or violate any Applicable Law or regulation, or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority that could result in a Material
Adverse Change; or (c) violate or result in the breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under this Indenture, the Related Documents, any other
indenture or other loan or credit agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which Issuer is a party or by which Issuer, or its property and assets may be bound or affected that could result in a
Material Adverse Change or result 

25

 

in a Lien on the Collateral other than Permitted Encumbrances. Issuer is not in violation or breach of or default under any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree,
determination or award or any contract, agreement, any lease, license, indenture or other instrument to which it is a party that could result in a Material Adverse Change.

a party, when duly executed and delivered, will be, legal, valid and binding obligations of Issuer, enforceable against Issuer in accordance with their respective terms, except as enforceability may
be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws of general application affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights or by general principles of equity limiting the availability of
equitable remedies. 

        Section 506.    Financial Statements.    Since September 30, 2002, there has been no Material Adverse
Change in the financial condition of any Universal Party.

        Section 509.    Consents and Approvals.    No approval, authorization, order, action or consent of any trustee
or holder of any Indebtedness or obligation of Issuer or of any other Person under any agreement, contract, lease or license or similar document or instrument to which Issuer is a party or by which
Issuer (except as permitted in the definition of Eligible Lease, or any of its property or assets) is bound, is required to be obtained by Issuer in order to make or consummate the transactions
contemplated under the Related Documents, including, inter alia, any issuance or sale of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture or the
Certificates pursuant to the Partnership Agreement,

actions in respect of, all Governmental Authorities required to be obtained by Issuer in order to make or consummate the transactions contemplated under the Related Documents have been, or prior to
the time when required will have been, obtained, given, filed or taken and are or will be in full force and effect, or due provision has been made therefor reasonably acceptable to the Indenture
Trustee. 

        Section 510.    Margin Regulations.    Issuer does not own any "margin security", as that term is defined in
Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board, and the proceeds of the Notes issued under this Indenture will be used only for the purposes contemplated hereunder. None of the proceeds of the Notes will
be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or
carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause any of the loans under this Indenture to be considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulations T, U and X.
Issuer will not take or permit any agent acting on its behalf to take any action which might cause this Indenture or any document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto to violate any regulation of
the Federal Reserve Board.

the date on which any fine, penalty, interest or late charge may be added thereto for nonpayment thereof, or any such fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss has been paid, or Issuer is
contesting its liability therefor in good faith and has fully reserved all such amounts according to GAAP in the financial statements provided to the Noteholders pursuant to Section 626 of this
Indenture. Issuer has paid when due and payable all material charges upon the books of Issuer and no 

26

 

Governmental Authority has asserted any Lien against Issuer with respect to unpaid Taxes or Other Taxes. Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by Issuer from its employees for all periods in
full and complete compliance with the tax, social security and unemployment withholding provisions of applicable federal, state, local and foreign law and such withholdings have been timely paid to
the respective Governmental Authorities.

Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The issuance of the Notes hereunder and the application of the proceeds and repayment thereof by Issuer and the performance of the transactions contemplated
by this Indenture and the other Related Documents will not violate any provision of the Investment Company Act or the Public Utility Holding Company Act, or any rule, regulation or order issued by the

than the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or granted in any of the Related Documents, the Issuer has not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in or a Lien (except for Permitted Encumbrances) on or otherwise conveyed any of the Collateral, except as permitted pursuant hereto or in the Related
Documents. The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Collateral other than any
financing statement or document of similar import (i) relating to the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture, (ii) that has been terminated, or (iii) that names Wells
Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as Indenture Trustee as secured party. The Issuer is not aware of any judgment or tax lien filings against the Issuer. 

        (f)    The
Issuer has received all necessary consents and approvals required by the terms of the Collateral to pledge to the Indenture Trustee of its interest and rights in
such Collateral hereunder. 

        (g)  The
Issuer has taken all steps necessary to cause the Securities Intermediary (in its capacity as securities intermediary) to identify in its records the Indenture
Trustee as the Person having a security entitlement in each of the Transaction Accounts. 

        (h)  The
Transaction Accounts are not in the name of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Intermediary. Neither the Issuer nor the Indenture Trustee
has consented to compliance of the Securities Intermediary with entitlement orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee. 

The
representations and warranties set forth in this Section 522 shall survive until this Indenture is terminated in accordance with its terms. Breaches of the representations and warranties
set forth in this Section 522 may not be waived by the Indenture Trustee (acting at the direction of the Control Party and the Interest Rate Hedge Providers), except with the consent of each
Rating Agency. 

        Section 523.    Ordinary Course.    The transactions contemplated by this Indenture and the other Related
Documents are being consummated by the Issuer in furtherance of the Issuer's ordinary business purposes and constitute a practical and reasonable course of action by the Issuer designed to improve the
financial position of the Issuer, with no contemplation of insolvency and with no intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its present or future creditors.

        Section 524.    Stamping and Storage of User Leases.    The Issuer has stamped or has caused the Manager to
stamp, by no later than thirty (30) days after the related Contribution Date or Sale Date, each User Lease owned by the Grantor with the following legend: 

"Certain
proceeds of this Lease are subject to a security interest in favor of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, as Indenture Trustee". 

In
addition, such User Lease is stored at the Manager's offices in Houston, Texas in a locked, fireproof cabinet. 

        Section 525.    Identification Marks.    The Issuer has used or has caused the Manager to use its best efforts
to keep and maintain or to cause to be kept and maintained, prominently displayed, a sticker with (i) in the case of Compressors owned by Issuer and leased to Head Lessee the phrase "Owned by
BRL Universal Compression Funding I 2002, L.P. and subject to a security interest in favor of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as Indenture Trustee" and (ii) in
the case of Compressors owned by Head Lessee and not leased from Head Lessor, "Owned by UCO Compression 2002 LLC and subject to a security interest in favor of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota,
National Association as Indenture Trustee" or in each case other appropriate words designated by the Series Enhancer, with appropriate changes thereof and additions thereto as from time to time may be
required by law in order to protect Issuer's and the Indenture Trustee's interests in such Compressors. 

So
long as any of the Notes shall be Outstanding and until payment and performance in full of the Outstanding Obligations, the representations and warranties contained herein shall have a continuing
effect as having been true when made. 

        Section 526.    Intellectual Property.    The Issuer has no Intellectual Property. 

        Section 527.    No New Financing Statements.    Since the time any Compressor was contributed, sold or
otherwise transferred to either or both of Old Lessor and Old Lessee, neither such entity executed any financing statements in any jurisdiction to or in favor of any Person other than (x) Old
Lessor, in the case of Compressors and related assets pledged to Old Lessor, and (y) Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, as indenture trustee.

into consideration additional acquisitions of Compressors. All of the foregoing requirements shall be collectively referred to as the "Hedging Requirements." The initial Interest Rate Hedge Provider
shall be Wachovia Bank, National Association. The Series Enhancer shall have the right to review and approve all future Interest Rate Swap Agreements. 

        (b)  If,
to comply with the Hedging Requirements, the Issuer is required to enter into additional transactions or to terminate existing transactions under Interest Rate Swap
Agreements, then the Issuer shall provide notice of such condition to the Indenture Trustee, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and each Series Enhancer
within five (5) Business Days after such condition is determined to exist. The Issuer (or the Manager on behalf of the Issuer) shall remedy such imbalance by the next succeeding Payment Date.
If the Hedging Requirements are not satisfied, and if the Issuer has failed to remedy same within such period, then the Indenture Trustee (at the written direction of the Control Party) shall have the
right to enter into (and shall enter into as and when the Control Party shall direct in writing) Interest Rate Swap Agreements on behalf of the Issuer to remedy such deficiency. The calculations to be
made under this Section 632 shall exclude all transactions where the Issuer is not required to make any scheduled periodic payments other than premium payments or fees. So long as a Trigger
Event or an Event of Default is continuing, neither the Issuer (nor the Manager on its behalf) shall enter into any additional transactions under Interest Rate Swap Agreements, except with the
approval of each Series Enhancer and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider. So long as no Trigger Event or Event of Default is then continuing, the Issuer may exercise its commercially reasonable
discretion in selecting the specific transactions and notional amounts thereof to be terminated or reduced. If a Trigger Event is then continuing, then (i) if there is only one institution
serving as the Interest Rate Hedge Provider with respect to all Interest Rate Swap Agreements then in effect, such Interest Rate Hedge Provider shall select the specific Interest Rate Swap Agreements
to be terminated and (ii) at all times not covered by clause (i) the notional reductions shall be effected over all outstanding transactions under Interest Rate Swap Agreements then in
effect on a pro rata basis, based on the respective notional amounts for each calculation period, so that the notional amounts for each current and
future calculation period will comply with the Hedging Requirements. If the Issuer fails to terminate or reduce transactions as required in this Section 632, the Indenture Trustee (acting at
the written direction of the Control Party) shall reduce the notional amounts, in 

38

 

whole or in part, for all outstanding transactions under each Interest Rate Swap Agreement then in effect on a pro rata basis, based on the respective
notional amounts for each calculation period in accordance with the Hedging Requirements. The Indenture Trustee shall have no duty to monitor such events, and shall be required to take action in
respect of the provisions of this Section 632 only upon written direction of the Person(s) entitled to give such direction. 

        (c)  Each
Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall provide that if the Interest Rate Hedge Provider (or any party providing credit support on its behalf) suffers an Interest Rate
Hedge Provider Collateral Rating Downgrade Event, the Interest Rate Hedge Provider will be required to post (at its own cost), within
fifteen (15) days of such Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Rating Downgrade Event, collateral acceptable to the Control Party in accordance with the applicable Interest Rate Swap
Agreement (the collateral indicated in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association is acceptable to the Control Party), or such Interest Rate Hedge Provider may transfer
(at its own cost) all of its rights and obligations under its Interest Rate Swap Agreement to an Eligible Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, or an Interest Rate Hedge Provider that is acceptable to the
Series Enhancer, in accordance with the terms of such Interest Rate Swap Agreement within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Rating Downgrade
Event, and the terms of such replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall be on identical terms or are otherwise acceptable to the Series Enhancer. Each Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall also
provide that if the Interest Rate Hedge Provider (or any party providing credit support on its behalf) suffers an Interest Rate Hedge Provider Replacement Rating Downgrade Event, the Interest Rate
Hedge Provider will be required to transfer (at is own cost) all of its rights and obligations under its Interest Rate Swap Agreement to an Eligible Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty, or an Interest
Rate Hedge Provider that is acceptable to the Series Enhancer, in accordance with the terms of its Interest Rate Swap Agreement not later than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the
Interest Rate Hedge Provider Replacement Rating Downgrade Event, and the terms of such replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall be on identical terms or are otherwise acceptable to the Series
Enhancer. The Issuer and Indenture Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Control Party) shall have the right to terminate the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and simultaneously enter into a
replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement in the event the Interest Rate Hedge Provider fails to post collateral or transfer its rights and interests under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement in
accordance with the terms of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. 

        (d)  The
Indenture Trustee shall, promptly after the Closing Date, establish a single segregated trust account (with separate sub-accounts for each entity acting as Interest
Rate Hedge Provider) in the name of the Indenture Trustee (the "Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Account"), which shall be held in trust in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of
the secured parties under this Indenture including the Series Enhancer and over which the Indenture Trustee (acting at the written direction of the Control Party) shall have exclusive control and the
sole right of withdrawal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 632, investment earnings on amounts held in the Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Account shall be
remitted to the applicable Interest Rate Hedge Provider upon its written request and its representation that the request is in accordance with the terms of the applicable Interest Rate Swap Agreement.
The Indenture Trustee shall deposit all collateral received from an Interest Rate Hedge Provider under Section 632(c) or otherwise under an Interest Rate Swap Agreement in the Interest Rate
Hedge Provider Collateral Account. Any and all funds at any time on deposit in, or otherwise held to the credit of, the Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Account shall be held in trust by the
Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the secured parties under this Indenture including the Series Enhancer. The only permitted withdrawal from, or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to
the credit of the Interest Rate Hedge Provider Collateral Account shall be (i) for application to obligations of the applicable Interest Rate Hedge Provider to the Issuer 

39

 

under its Interest Rate Swap Agreement if such Interest Rate Swap Agreement becomes subject to early termination or (ii) to return collateral or investment earnings to such Interest Rate Hedge
Provider when and as required by such Interest Rate Swap Agreement. 

        (e)  On
each Determination Date, Issuer shall provide or cause to be provided to the Indenture Trustee, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and each Series Enhancer, a monthly
report reflecting the hedging policy calculations as of the end of the preceding calendar month based on all transactions outstanding as of the end of such month under Interest Rate Swap Agreements
then in effect, including transactions which are scheduled to commence on a future date. 

        (f)    The
termination provisions provided for in this Indenture relating to the Interest Rate Swap Agreements are in addition to, and not to the exclusion of, any termination
provisions contained in the Interest Rate Swap Agreements. 

        (g)  All
payments received from an Interest Rate Hedge Provider shall be deposited by the Issuer directly into the Trust Account in accordance with Section 302(a)
hereof. 

        Section 633.    Separate Identity.    The Issuer makes herein by this reference each of the representations and
warranties made by it to Gardere Wynne Sewell, LLP in support of their opinions respecting the consolidation the Issuer and the Head Lessee and certain other parties issued and delivered in
connection with the issuance of the Notes, as if specifically made herein and agrees to comply with each of the factual assumptions contained in such opinions. 

        Section 634.    Annual Perfection Opinion.    Within 90 days after each anniversary of the date hereof,
beginning with the calendar year 2003, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee, the Deal Agent, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, each Rating Agency, and each Series Enhancer, an Opinion of
Counsel either stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture, any Supplements hereto and
any other requisite documents, and with respect to the execution and filing of any financing statements and continuation statements, as are necessary to maintain the Lien created by this Indenture and
reciting the details of such action or stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, no such action is necessary to maintain such Lien. 

        Section 635.    Identification Marks.    Issuer shall use its best efforts to keep and maintain or cause to be
kept and maintained, prominently displayed, on each Owner Compressor, a sticker with the applicable phrase described in Section 525 hereof, or other appropriate words designated by the
Indenture Trustee, with appropriate changes thereof and additions thereto as from time to time may be required by law in order to protect Issuer's and the Indenture Trustee's interests in such
Compressors. Issuer shall not allow the name of any Person to be placed upon any Compressor as a designation that might be interpreted as indicating a claim of ownership thereto or a security interest
therein by any Person other than Issuer, Head Lessee or the Indenture Trustee. 

        Section 636.    [Reserved].    

        Section 637.    Storage of Lease Files.    The Issuer shall at all times cause the Manager to maintain at its
Houston, Texas office, all Lease Files in a locked, fire-proof cabinet. All User Leases shall be stamped, within thirty (30) days of the Contribution Date or the Sale Date, with the following
legend: 

"This
lease and the proceeds of this lease are subject to a security interest in favor of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, as Indenture Trustee". 

        Section 638.    Intellectual Property Filings.    The Issuer shall make all filings necessary or desirable to
ensure that the Indenture Trustee has a validly perfected first priority security interest in any and all Intellectual Property, if any.

ARTICLE VII    
    
    DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; PREPAYMENTS    
  

        Section 701.    Full Discharge.    Upon payment in full of all Outstanding Obligations including, without
limitation, termination of each Interest Rate Swap Agreement and payment of all amounts, including termination amounts, payable in connection therewith), the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written
request and at the expense of the Issuer, execute and deliver to the Issuer such deeds or other instruments as shall be requisite to evidence the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the
security and Liens hereby created, and to release the Issuer from its covenants contained in this Indenture and the Supplements hereto in connection with the satisfaction and discharge of the
Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel stating that such satisfaction and discharge is authorized and permitted. 

        Section 702.    Prepayment of Notes.    

        (a)    Optional Prepayments.    The Issuer may, from time to time, make an optional Prepayment of principal of the
Notes of any Series at the times, in the amounts and subject to the conditions set forth in the related Supplement. The Issuer shall promptly confirm any telephonic notice of prepayment in writing.
Any optional Prepayment of principal made by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 702 shall also include accrued interest to the date of the prepayment on the amount being prepaid. All
Prepayments made in
accordance with this Section 702(a) shall be accomplished by a deposit of funds (including any amounts required pursuant to the provisions of Section 702(c) hereof) directly into the
Trust Account. 

        (b)    Mandatory Prepayments.    If an Overcollateralization Event or a Net Revenue Event has occurred and is
continuing or the Aggregate Note Principal Balance exceeds 97% of the Asset Base, then, if the Head Lessee shall not have acquired additional Eligible Compressors having an aggregate Appraised Value
sufficient to eliminate such condition on or prior to the immediately succeeding Determination Date, the Issuer shall, on the Payment Date immediately following such Determination Date, prepay the
outstanding principal balance of, and accrued interest thereon (including, if any such prepayment relates to a variable funding Series, interest accrued through the end of any applicable interest
tranche or fixed period), of any or all Series of Notes, in each case in an amount necessary to eliminate such conditions, which prepayment shall be applied as a payment of principal in accordance
with the provisions of Section 302 of this Indenture and the applicable provisions of the affected Supplements. If the Issuer does not cure such event or condition in the manner and within the
time frame set forth in the preceding sentence, then on each subsequent Payment Date, that portion of Available Distribution Amount remaining after making all distributions required pursuant to
clauses (1) through (8) inclusive of Section 302(c) hereof shall be used to prepay the then unpaid principal balance of the Notes in accordance with Section 302(c) hereof, until
the earlier to occur of (x) the then unpaid principal balance of the Notes have been reduced to zero and (y) the date on which such event or condition is no longer continuing or
existing. 

        In
addition to the foregoing, if Head Lessee (i) the exercises the Head Lessee Purchase Option, or (ii) pays the Maximum Lease Payment Adjustment, then the Issuer shall
prepay (from funds on deposit in the Collateral Account or otherwise available to the Issuer) the Notes in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Purchase Option Amount or Maximum Lease Payment
Adjustment, as applicable, (ii) accrued interest to the date of prepayment on the principal balance of the Notes, respectively, so prepaid, (iii) any amounts payable pursuant to Section
702(c) and (iv) any breakage cost and other amounts specified in the related Supplement. 

41

 

All
Prepayments made in accordance with this Section 702(b) shall be accomplished by a deposit of funds (including any funds required pursuant to Section 702(c) hereof) directly into the
Trust Account. 

        (c)    Repayment of Interest Rate Hedge Provider.    If the Issuer has elected to make a voluntary Prepayment in
accordance with the provisions of Section 702(a) above or is required to make a Prepayment in accordance with the provisions of Section 702(b) above, then in addition to such Prepayment,
the Issuer shall pay such amount, including any termination payments, necessary (in each case as determined by the Series Enhancer, or if a Series Enhancer Default has occurred and is then continuing,
the Deal Agent and in any event with the consent of each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, and after taking account of payment priorities set forth in Section 302 hereunder) to reduce the aggregate
notional balance of all outstanding transactions under the Interest Rate Swap Agreements in accordance with the terms of Section 632 hereof and the terms of the related Interest Rate Swap
Agreements. So long as no Trigger Event or Event of Default is then continuing, the Issuer (or the Manager on its behalf)
may exercise its discretion in selecting the specific transactions and the notional amounts thereof to be terminated. If a Trigger Event or Event of Default is then continuing the outstanding
transactions under the Interest Rate Swap Agreements will be terminated on a pro rata basis, based on the respective notional amounts for each remaining
calculation period so that the remaining notional amounts for all future calculation periods under such transactions shall comply with the requirements of Section 632(a) and not exceed such
requirements by more than the amounts set forth in Section 632(b)(ii) hereof. 

        (d)    Allocation of Payments.    So long as Series 2002-1 is the only Series Outstanding, all principal Prepayments
permitted or required pursuant to Section 702 hereof shall be allocated to Series 2002-1. If more than one Series is Outstanding, all principal Prepayments permitted or required pursuant to Section
702 hereof shall be allocated prior to the Commitment Termination Date, to Series 2002-1, and (ii) after the Commitment Termination Date, to all such Series then Outstanding on a  pro rata basis, based
on the relative aggregate principal balances of each such Series.

Documents; or 

      (xvi)  any

The
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to one Series of Notes shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to all other Series of Notes then Outstanding unless the related Supplement
with respect to each such Series of Notes shall specifically provide to the contrary. 

        Section
802.    Acceleration of Stated Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.    (a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default of type described in paragraph (vi) or (vii) of Section 801, the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, all Classes and Series of Notes, together with all other amounts then due
and owing to the Noteholders, shall become immediately due and payable without further action by any Person (provided, that the Noteholders' rights with
respect thereto shall be limited as set forth in Section 808). Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, if an Event of Default under Section 801 occurs and is continuing, then and in
every such case the Control Party may declare the principal of and accrued interest on all Notes of all Series then Outstanding to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Issuer
and to the Indenture Trustee given by the Control Party, and upon any such declaration such principal and accrued interest shall become immediately due and payable.

notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

Supplement; 

        (C)  all
sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder or the Manager and the reasonable compensation, out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances of the

        (ii)  all
Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of or interest on Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been
cured or waived as provided in Section 813 hereof. 

        No
such rescission with respect to any Event of Default shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon, nor shall any such rescission affect any
Interest Rate Swap Agreement that has been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof.

continuing and a declaration of acceleration has been made under Section 802 and not rescinded or annulled, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee (at the direction of the Control
Party), pay to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders of all Series then Outstanding, all Interest Rate Hedge Providers and all Series Enhancers, the whole amount then due and
payable on
such Notes for principal and interest, with interest upon the overdue principal and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon overdue installments of interest, at
the Overdue Rate payable with respect to each such Note; and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all other Outstanding Obligations and the costs and out-of-pocket
expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee, the Series Enhancer and their respective agents and counsel incurred in
connection with the enforcement of this Indenture. 

        Section
804.    Remedies.    If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee, by such
officer or agent as it may appoint, shall notify the applicable Rating Agencies, if any, of such Event of Default and shall, if and as instructed in writing by the Control Party: 

          (i)  institute
any Proceedings, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, for the collection of all amounts then due and payable on the Notes of all Series or

such other appropriate Proceedings to protect and enforce any other rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this
Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy; 

      (vii)  exercise
any remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any applicable law and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of
the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders hereunder in order to enforce the rights of the Indenture Trustee hereunder or the rights of the Secured Party under the Head Lessee Security Agreement; 

      (viii)  appoint
a receiver or a manager over the Issuer or its assets; 

        (ix)  file

Agreement, take possession of the Collateral or any portion thereof or rights of interest therein. 

        Section
805.    Indenture Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes.    (a) In all Proceedings brought by
the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to
represent all of the Noteholders and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings. 

        (b)  All
rights of action and claims under this Indenture, the related Supplement or such Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession
of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any Proceeding relating thereto, and any such Proceeding instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express
trust, and any recovery whether by judgment, settlement or otherwise shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements incurred and advances made, by
the Indenture Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, subject to the subordination of payments among Classes of a
particular Series as set forth in the related Supplement. 

        Section
806.    Allocation of Money Collected.    If the Notes of all Series have been declared due and payable
following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded or annulled, any money collected by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article or otherwise and any
other monies that may be held or thereafter received by the Indenture Trustee as 

46

 

security for such Notes shall be applied, to the extent permitted by law, in the following order of priority, at the date or dates fixed by the Indenture Trustee: 

          (i)  To
the payment of all costs and expenses of collection incurred by the Indenture Trustee (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indenture
Trustee) and of all other amounts due the Indenture Trustee under Section 905 hereof; and 

        (ii)  To
the Persons in the amounts and in the priority set forth in Section 302(c). 

        Section
807.    Limitation on Suits.    Except to the extent provided in Section 808 hereof, no Noteholder shall have
the right to institute any Proceeding, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless each of the following conditions shall
have been satisfied: 

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

        (ii)  the
Control Party shall have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute Proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as the Indenture
Trustee hereunder; 

        (iii)  such
Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred in compliance with such request (the unsecured indemnity of a Rated Institutional Noteholder being deemed satisfactory for such purpose); 

        (iv)  the
Indenture Trustee has, for thirty (30) days after its receipt by a Corporate Trust Officer of such notice, request and offer of security or indemnity, failed to
institute any such Proceeding; 

        (v)  no
direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such thirty (30) day period by the Control Party; and 

        (vi)  a
Series Enhancer Default has occurred and is continuing. 

it
being understood and intended that no one or more Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or
prejudice the rights of any other Noteholder or any Interest Rate Hedge Provider, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Noteholder (except to the extent provided in
the related Supplement) or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the benefit of all Noteholders. 

        Section
808.    Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Indenture, each Noteholder shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest on such Note as such principal and interest becomes due and
payable and to institute any Proceeding for the enforcement of such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder;  provided, however, that, so long as no Series Enhancer Default exists with respect to the applicable
Series, no Noteholder shall have any right to receive payment of principal under its Notes prior to the Final Maturity Date (except to the extent funds are available therefor in accordance with the
distribution provision of Section 302 hereof and the related Supplement) nor shall any such Noteholder institute any Proceeding for the enforcement of any such payment. 

        Section
809.    Restoration of Rights and Remedies.    If the Indenture Trustee, any Series Enhancer or any Holder has
instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or the related Supplement and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined
adversely to the Indenture Trustee, any Series Enhancer or to such Holder, then and 

47

 

in every such case, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, such Series Enhancer and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their
former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee, such Series Enhancer and the Holders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted. 

        Section
810.    Rights and Remedies Cumulative.    No right or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture
Trustee, any Series Enhancer, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider or to the Holders pursuant to this Indenture or any Supplement is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right
and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The
assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

        Section
811.    Delay or Omission Not Waiver.    No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee, of any Series
Enhancer, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver
of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee, the Series Enhancer or by the Holders, as the case may be, subject to the right of the Control Party to control such right pursuant to
Section 812 hereof. 

        Section
812.    Control by Requisite Global Majority.    Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Control Party
shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture
Trustee, provided that (i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with
this Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 804 hereof, (ii) such Control Party has offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against costs, expenses and liabilities
which it might incur in connection therewith as provided in Section 902(iii) hereof and (iii) the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee which is not
inconsistent with such direction. 

        Section
813.    Waiver of Past Defaults.    (a) The Control Party may, on behalf of all Noteholders of all Series,
waive any past Event of Default and its consequences, except an Event of Default: 

          (i)  in
the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Note of any Series; or 

        (ii)  in
respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of all the Noteholders of all Series pursuant to Section 1002 of
this Indenture. 

        (b)  Upon
any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Indenture;  provided, however, that no such waiver
shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. No such waiver
shall affect any Interest Rate Swap Agreement that has been terminated in accordance with its terms. 

        Section
814.    Undertaking for Costs.    All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the
Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as the Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such
court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the
claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section shall not 

48

 

apply to any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the
Notes of all Series then Outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the Expected Final Payment Date
of such Note. 

        Section
815.    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.    The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so)
that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in
force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law
and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the
Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

        Section
816.    Sale of Collateral.    (a) The power to effect any sale (a "Sale") of any portion of the Collateral
pursuant to Section 804 hereof shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Collateral shall
have been sold or all Outstanding Obligations shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee (at the direction of the Control Party) may from time to time postpone any Sale by public announcement made at
the time and place of such Sale. 

        (b)  Upon
any Sale, whether made under the power of sale hereby given or under judgment, order or decree in any Proceeding for the foreclosure or involving the enforcement of
this Indenture: (i) the Indenture Trustee, at the written direction of the Control Party, may bid for and purchase the property being sold, and upon compliance with the terms of such Sale may hold,
retain and possess and dispose of such property in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and (ii) the receipt of the Indenture Trustee or of any officer thereof making such Sale shall be a
sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers at such Sale for its or their purchase money, and such purchaser or purchasers, and its or their assigns or personal representatives, shall not,
after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt of the Indenture Trustee or of such officer therefor, be obliged to see to the application of such purchase money or be in any way
answerable for any loss, misappropriation or non-application thereof. 

        (c)  The
Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a
Sale thereof. In addition, the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest (subject to lessee's rights of quiet
enjoyment) in any portion of the Collateral in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale. No purchaser or transferee at such a Sale shall be bound to
ascertain the Indenture Trustee's authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any monies. 

        (d)  The
Indenture Trustee acknowledges that its right to sell, transfer or otherwise convey any Interest Rate Swap Agreement or exercise any foreclosure rights with respect
thereto shall be subject to compliance with the provisions of the applicable Interest Rate Swap Agreement. 

        Section
817.    Action on Notes.    The Indenture Trustee's right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under
this Indenture or any Supplement shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture or any Supplement. Neither the Lien of this
Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee, any Series Enhancer, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the
Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral or upon any of the assets of the Issuer.

ARTICLE IX
  
    CONCERNING THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE    
  

        Section
901.    Duties of the Indenture Trustee.    The Indenture Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default or after the cure or waiver of any Event of Default that may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and the
related Supplement and no implied duties shall be inferred against it. If an Event of Default with respect to any Series has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee, at the written direction
of the Control Party, shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and the related Supplement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent
Person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person's own affairs. 

        The
Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee which are
specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provisions of this Indenture and any applicable Supplement, shall determine whether they are substantially in the form required by this Indenture
and any applicable Supplement; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content (including
mathematical calculations) of any such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished pursuant to this Indenture and any applicable Supplement. 

        The
Indenture Trustee shall send, promptly upon receipt, all reports and notices indicated on Schedule 2 hereto, it may receive pursuant to any of the provisions of this Indenture and
the other Related Documents to the Deal Agent and the Interest Rate Hedge Provider. In addition, notwithstanding any other rights to receive documents under Section 305 hereof or under any other
Related Document upon reasonable request, the Indenture Trustee shall send to the Deal Agent or Interest Rate Hedge Provider all reports and notices reasonably requested by the Deal Agent or the
Interest Rate Hedge Provider. 

        No
provision of this Indenture or any Supplement shall be construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its
own willful misconduct; provided, however, that: 

          (i)  Prior
to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the cure or waiver of any Event of Default that may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Indenture
Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and any Supplements issued pursuant to the terms hereof.
The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and any Supplements issued pursuant to the terms
hereof, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture
Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates, statements, reports, documents, orders, opinions or other
instruments (whether in their original or facsimile form) furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture and any Supplements issued pursuant to the terms
hereof; 

        (ii)  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Corporate Trust Officer or Corporate Trust Officers of the Indenture Trustee,
unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

        (iii)  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Control Party relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy 

50

 

available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, under this Indenture. 

        No
provisions of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder,
or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate security or indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it (the unsecured indemnity of (A) a Rated Institutional Noteholder, or (B) any Series Enhancer (so long as its claims paying ability is rated "AAA" or "Aaa", as applicable)
shall not constitute reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of any such funds is not reasonably assured to it.) 

        Whether
or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 901. 

        Section
902.    Certain Matters Affecting the Indenture Trustee.    Except as otherwise provided in Section 901
hereof: 

          (i)  The
Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any Opinion of Counsel, certificate of an officer of
the Manager, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document (whether in its
original or facsimile form) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 

        (ii)  The
Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and any advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any
action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance in reliance thereof; 

        (iii)  The
Indenture Trustee shall be under no obligation to institute, conduct or defend any litigation or proceeding hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order
or direction of the Control Party, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless the Control Party shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to
it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby (the unsecured indemnity of (A) a Rated Institutional Noteholder being deemed satisfactory for such purpose or
(B) any Series Enhancer (so long as its claims paying ability is rated "AAA" or "Aaa," as applicable) being deemed satisfactory for such purpose); 

        (iv)  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or
rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; 

        (v)  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion,
report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Control Party; provided,
however that the Indenture Trustee may require reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any cost, expense or liability likely to be incurred in making such
investigation as a condition to so proceeding (the unsecured indemnity of (A) a Rated Institutional Noteholder being deemed satisfactory for such purposes or (B) any Series Enhancer (so long as its
claims paying ability is rated "AAA" or "Aaa," as applicable) being deemed satisfactory for such purpose). The reasonable expense of any such examination shall be paid, on a  pro rata basis, by the
Noteholders or, if paid by the Indenture Trustee, shall be reimbursed by such Noteholders upon demand; 

51

 

        (vi)  The
Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys and the
Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder; provided,
however, that any agreement with an agent or an attorney shall provide for due care by such agent or attorney in respect of the Issuer; 

      (vii)  The
Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless either a Corporate Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall
have actual knowledge or written notice of such shall have been actually received by a Corporate Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee; and 

      (viii)  the
rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Indenture Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended
to, and shall be enforceable by, the Indenture Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

        The
provisions of this Section 902 shall be applicable to the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture. Delivery of any reports, information and
documents to the Indenture Trustee provided for herein (or in any Related Document) is for informational purposes only and the Indenture Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive
knowledge of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Manager's or Issuer's compliance with any of its representations, warranties or
covenants under this Indenture or any of the Related Documents (as to which the Indenture Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates). 

        Section
903.    Indenture Trustee Not Liable.    (a) The recitals contained herein (other than the representations and
warranties contained in Section 911 hereof), in any Supplement and in the Notes (other than the certificate of authentication on the Notes) shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the
Indenture Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Indenture Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture, any Supplement, the Notes, the
Collateral or of any related document. The Indenture Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or of the proceeds thereof, or for the use or
application of any funds paid to the Issuer or the Manager in respect of the Collateral. 

        (b)  The
Indenture Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability for or with respect to the existence or validity of any Compressor, the perfection of any security
interest (whether as of the date hereof or at any future time), the maintenance of or the taking of any action to maintain such perfection, the validity of the assignment of any portion of the
Collateral to the Indenture Trustee or of any intervening assignment, the compliance by any Universal Party with any covenant or the breach by any Universal Party of any warranty or representation
made hereunder, in any Supplement or in any related document or the accuracy of such warranty or representation, any investment of monies in the Trust Account or any Series Account or any loss
resulting therefrom (provided that such investments are made in accordance with the provisions of Section 303 hereof), or the acts or omissions of the
Seller or the Manager taken in the name of the Indenture Trustee. 

        (c)  Except
as expressly provided herein or in any Supplement, the Indenture Trustee shall not have any obligation or liability under any Contract by reason of or arising out
of this Indenture or the granting of a security interest in such Contract hereunder or the receipt by the Indenture Trustee of any payment relating to any Contract pursuant hereto, nor shall the
Indenture Trustee be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of the Issuer, the Seller or the Manager under or pursuant to any Contract, or to make any
payment, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it, or the sufficiency of any performance by any party, under any Contract. 

52

 

        Section
904.    Indenture Trustee May Own Notes.    The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may
become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the Indenture Trustee; provided that such transaction shall not
result in the disqualification of the Indenture Trustee for purposes of Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 

        Section
905.    Indenture Trustee's Fees and Expenses.    The fees ("Indenture Trustee's Fees") of the Indenture
Trustee shall be paid by the Issuer in accordance with Section 302 hereof in an amount equal to $12,000 per year. In addition, on the Closing Date, the Issuer shall pay to the Indenture Trustee an
up-front fee equal to $7,500 plus reasonable attorney's fees. Subject to the provisions of Section 902(iii) hereof, the Issuer shall, to the extent not paid by the Manager, indemnify the Indenture
Trustee and each of its officers, directors and employees for, and hold them harmless against, any loss, liability, damage claim or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their
part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself both individually and in its representative capacity
against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder ("Indenture Trustee Indemnified Amounts"). 

        The
obligations of the Issuer under this Section 905 to compensate the Indenture Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Indenture Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances and to
indemnify and hold harmless, the Indenture Trustee shall constitute Outstanding Obligations hereunder and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture. 

        When
the Indenture Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 801(v) or Section 801(vi), the expenses and the compensation
for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. 

        Section
906.    Eligibility Requirements for the Indenture Trustee.    The Indenture Trustee hereunder shall at all
times be a national banking association or a corporation, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any State, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate
trust powers. In addition, the Indenture Trustee or its parent corporation shall at all times (i) have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000, (ii) be subject to supervision or
examination by Federal or state authority and (iii) have a long-term unsecured senior debt rating of "A-2" or better by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and a long-term unsecured senior debt rating of
"A" by Standard & Poor's Rating Services and short-term unsecured senior debt rating of "P-1" or better by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and a short-term unsecured senior debt rating of "A-2" by
Standard & Poor's Rating Services. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of such supervising or examining authority, then, for
the purposes of this Section 906, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation 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 the Indenture Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section,
the Indenture Trustee shall resign promptly in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 907 hereof. 

        Section
907.    Resignation and Removal of the Indenture Trustee.    The Indenture Trustee may at any time resign and
be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Issuer, the Manager, the Deal Agent, each Series Enhancer, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and the Noteholders.
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, a copy of which original instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Indenture Trustee and the successor Indenture Trustee. A copy of the instrument shall also be delivered to the Deal Agent. If no successor Indenture Trustee shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 90 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the Control Party may appoint a successor trustee or, if it does not do so within 30 days thereafter, the resigning 

53

 

Indenture Trustee, with the consent of the Deal Agent and each Series Enhancer, may petition at the expense of the Issuer any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee, which successor trustee shall meet the eligibility standards set forth in Section 906. 

        If
at any time the Indenture Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 906 hereof and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Issuer, any Series Enhancer or the Manager, or if at any time the Indenture Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Indenture
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Indenture Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation
or liquidation, then the Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee and appoint a successor Indenture Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which original instrument shall be
delivered to the Indenture Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Indenture Trustee. 

        Any
resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon, and only upon,
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 908 hereof. 

        Section
908.    Successor Indenture Trustee.    Any successor Indenture Trustee appointed as provided in Section 907
hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and to its predecessor Indenture Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
predecessor Indenture Trustee shall become effective and such successor Indenture Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as the Indenture Trustee herein. The predecessor Indenture Trustee shall upon payment of all charges due it, its
agents and counsel deliver to the successor Indenture Trustee all documents relating to the Collateral, if any, delivered to it, together with any amount remaining in the Trust Account, and any other
Series Accounts. In addition, the predecessor Indenture Trustee and, upon request of the successor Indenture Trustee, the Issuer shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other
things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Indenture Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. 

        No
successor Indenture Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Indenture Trustee shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 906 hereof and the Control Party has not objected to such appointment within ten (10) days. 

        Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor Indenture Trustee as provided in this Section, the Issuer shall mail notice of the succession of such Indenture Trustee hereunder to each
Interest Rate Hedge Provider and to all Noteholders at their addresses as shown in the registration books maintained by the Indenture Trustee. If the Issuer fails to mail such notice within 10 days
after acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee, the successor Indenture Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Issuer. 

        Section
909.    Merger or Consolidation of the Indenture Trustee.    Any entity into which the Indenture Trustee may
be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party, or any entity
succeeding to the business of the Indenture Trustee, shall be the successor of the Indenture Trustee hereunder, provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 906 hereof,
without the execution or filing of any paper, deed or conveyance or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. 

        Section
910.    Separate Indenture Trustees, Co-Indenture Trustees and Custodians.     If the Indenture Trustee is not
capable of acting outside the United States, it shall have the power from time to time to appoint one or more Persons or corporations to act either as co-trustees jointly with the Indenture 

54

 

Trustee, or as separate trustees, or as custodians, for the purpose of holding title to, foreclosing or otherwise taking action with respect to any of the Collateral, when such separate trustee or
co-trustee is necessary or advisable under any applicable laws or for the purpose of otherwise conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or condition in any applicable jurisdiction. The
separate trustees, co-trustees, or custodians so appointed shall be trustees, co-trustees, or custodians for the benefit of all Noteholders and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, and shall have such
powers, rights and remedies as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment; provided, however, that no such appointment shall, or shall be
deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent of the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall join in any such appointment, but such joining shall not be necessary for the effectiveness of such appointment. 

        Every
separate trustee, co-trustee and custodian shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 

          (i)  all
powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee in respect of the receipt, custody and payment of moneys shall be exercised solely by
the Indenture Trustee; 

        (ii)  all
other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the
Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee, co-trustee, or custodian jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the
Indenture 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 Collateral or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian; 

        (iii)  no
trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or custodian hereunder; and 

        (iv)  the
Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian so appointed by it or them if such
resignation or removal does not violate the other terms of this Indenture. 

        Any
notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture 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, co-trustee, or custodian shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article. 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 the Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be
provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording
protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be furnished to the Indenture Trustee and each Series Enhancer. 

        Any
separate trustee, co-trustees, or custodian may, at any time, constitute the Indenture 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 Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee, co-trustee, or custodian 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 the Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a
new or successor trustee or custodian. 

        No
separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as successor trustee under Section 906 hereof and no notice to Noteholders of
the appointment thereof shall be required under Section 908 hereof. 

55

 

        The
Indenture Trustee agrees to instruct the co-trustees, if any, to the extent necessary to fulfill the Indenture Trustee's obligations hereunder. 

        Section
911.    Representations and Warranties.    The Indenture Trustee hereby represents and warrants as of the
Effective Date of each Series that: 

        (a)    Organization and Good Standing.    The Indenture Trustee is a national banking association duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America, and has the power to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is presently engaged; 

        (b)    Authorization.    The Indenture Trustee has the power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and
perform this Indenture and each Supplement and to authenticate the Notes, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture and each Supplement and the authentication of the Notes has been
duly authorized by the Indenture Trustee by all necessary corporate action; 

        (c)    Binding Obligations.    This Indenture and each Supplement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by the Issuer, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Indenture Trustee, enforceable against the Indenture Trustee in accordance with its terms, except that (i) such enforcement
may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws (whether statutory, regulatory or decisional) now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights
generally and the rights of trust companies in particular and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to certain equitable defenses
and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought, whether in a proceeding at law or in equity; 

        (d)    No Violation.    The performance by the Indenture Trustee of its obligations under this Indenture and each
Supplement will not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) a default under, the charter documents or
bylaws of the Indenture Trustee; 

        (e)    No Proceedings.    There are no proceedings or investigations to which the Indenture Trustee is a party
pending, or, to the knowledge of the Indenture Trustee without independent investigation, threatened, before any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or other tribunal or Governmental
Authority (A) asserting the invalidity of this Indenture or the Notes, (B) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Notes or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture or
(C) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially and adversely affect the performance by the Indenture Trustee of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this
Indenture or the Notes; and 

        (f)    Approvals.    Neither the execution or delivery by the Indenture Trustee of this Indenture nor the consummation
of the transactions by the Indenture Trustee contemplated hereby requires the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with or the taking of any other action with respect to
any Governmental Authority under any existing federal or State of Minnesota law governing the banking or trust powers of the Indenture Trustee. 

        (g)    Control of Indenture Trustee.    The Indenture Trustee is not directly or indirectly controlled by Universal or
any of its Affiliates. The Indenture Trustee will promptly notify the Issuer, each Series Enhancer, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, the Deal Agent and the Contributor if it at any time it becomes
controlled by Universal or any of its affiliates. 

        (h)    Knowledge of Adverse Claims.    Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association does not have any knowledge of
adverse claim with respect to the Collateral in which the security interest is being granted. 

56

 

        (i)    No Conflict; Legal Compliance.    The execution, delivery and performance of this Indenture and each of the
Supplements will not: (a) contravene any provision of the Indenture Trustee's Organizational Documents; (b) contravene, conflict with or violate any applicable law or regulation, or any order, writ,
judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award of any Governmental Authority that could result in a Material Adverse Change; or (c) violate or result in the breach of, or constitute (with or
without Notice, lapse of time or both) a default under this Indenture, the Related Documents, any other indenture or other loan or credit agreement, or other agreement or instrument to which Indenture
Trustee is a party or by which Indenture Trustee, or its property and assets may be bound or affected that could result in a Material Adverse Change or result in a Lien other than Permitted
Encumbrances. Indenture Trustee is not in violation or breach of or default under any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award or any contract,
agreement, lease, license, indenture or other instrument to which it is a party that could result in a Material Adverse Change. 

        (j)    Compliance with Law.    The Indenture Trustee: 

          (i)  is
not in violation of (1) any laws, ordinances, governmental rules or regulations, or (2) court orders to which it is subject, the violation of either of which could
reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Indenture Trustee to perform its obligations under and comply with the terms of this Indenture or any of the Supplements or
other Related Documents to which it is a party; 

        (ii)  has
not failed to obtain any licenses, permits, franchises or other governmental authorizations which failure could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely
affect the ownership of its property or the conduct of its business including, without limitation, with respect to transactions contemplated by this Indenture and any of the Supplements or other
Related Documents to which it is a party; and 

        (iii)  is
not in violation in any respect of any term of any agreement, certificate of formation, by law, or any instrument to which it is a party or by which it may be
bound, which violation could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the business or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Indenture Trustee, or the interests of the Noteholders,
any Series Enhancer or Eligible Interest Rate Hedge Counterparty in any Collateral. 

        Section
912.    Indenture Trustee Offices.    The Indenture Trustee shall maintain in the State of Minnesota an office
or offices or agency or agencies where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, which office shall initially be located at MAC N9311-161, Sixth Street and Marquette Avenue,
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55479 and shall promptly notify the Issuer, the Manager, the Noteholders and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider of any change of such location. 

        Section
913.    Notice of Event of Default.    If a Corporate Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee shall have actual
knowledge that an Event of Default with respect to any Series shall have occurred and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) give written
notice thereof to each Noteholder, each Interest Rate Hedge Provider and any Rating Agency and Series Enhancer of such Series. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the absence of actual knowledge by
a Corporate Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of any Event of Default unless notified in writing thereof by the Issuer, the
Seller, the Manager, any Series Enhancer or any Noteholder, and such notice references the applicable Series of Notes generally, the Issuer, this Indenture or the applicable Supplement. 

        Section
914.    Indenture Trustee's Application for Instructions from the Issuer.     Any application by the Indenture
Trustee for written instructions from the Issuer may, at the option of the Indenture Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Indenture Trustee under 

57

 

this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of,
the Indenture Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the
date any officer of the Issuer actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective
date in the case of an omission), the Indenture Trustee shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

name, address, telephone number, location of Compressor(s), monthly rental rate, maintenance information and other pertinent terms and conditions of the User Lease; provided,
however, that the Monthly Tape is in a format to be agreed upon by the Manager and the Indenture Trustee. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer, the Manager, any
Interest Rate Hedge Provider and any Series Enhancer in writing of any material inconsistencies between the related Manager Report and the Monthly Tape and of any information that is missing from such
Manager Report and shall confirm conformity of actual Manager remittances to such Manager Report. 

        (b)  If
the Manager disagrees with the computations provided under paragraph (a) above by the Indenture Trustee or if the Manager has not reconciled such discrepancy, the
Indenture Trustee agrees to confer with the Manager to resolve such disagreement on or prior to the next succeeding Determination Date and shall settle such discrepancy with the Manager, and notify
the Deal Agent and any Series Enhancer of the resolution thereof. The Manager hereby agrees to cooperate, at its own expense, with the Indenture Trustee in reconciling any discrepancies herein. If
within thirty (30) days of notice to the Manager, any Series Enhancer, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider, the Deal Agent and the Indenture Trustee, such discrepancy is not resolved, the Indenture
Trustee shall promptly notify any Interest Rate Hedge Provider and any Series Enhancer of such discrepancy. Following receipt of such notice from the Indenture Trustee, the Manager shall deliver to
the Rating Agencies, the Noteholders, any Series Enhancer, any Interest Rate Hedge Provider and the Indenture Trustee no later than the related Payment Date a certificate describing the nature and
cause of such discrepancies and the Manager shall hire independent accountants (who may also provide other services to the Manager), at Manager's expense, to examine the Manager Report and attempt to
reconcile discrepancies at the earliest possible date. The result, if any, of such reconciliation shall be reflected in the Manager Report for the next succeeding Determination Date. 

        Other
than the duties specifically set forth in this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, to supervise, verify, monitor or

determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee.

case of all obligations under the Related Documents unless otherwise expressly provided herein or therein, (iii) the payment obligations of the parties under the Related Documents shall not be
discharged by an amount paid in a currency or in a place other than that specified with respect to such obligations, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, except to the extent actually received
by the Person entitled thereto and converted into Dollars by such Person (it being understood and agreed that, if any transaction party shall so receive an amount in a currency other than Dollars, it
shall (A) if it is not the Person entitled to receive payment, promptly return the same (in the currency in which received) to the Person from whom it was received or (B) if it is the Person entitled
to receive payment, either, in its sole discretion, (x) promptly return the same (in the currency in which received) to the Person from whom it was received or (y) subject to reasonable commercial
practices, promptly cause the conversion of the same into Dollars), (iv) to the extent that the amount so paid on prompt conversion to Dollars under normal commercial practices does not yield the
requisite amount of
Dollars, the obligee of such payment shall have a separate cause of action against the party obligated to make the relevant payment for the additional amount necessary to yield the amount due and
owing under the Related Documents, (v) if, for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court with respect to any obligation under any of the Related Documents, it shall be necessary to convert to
any other currency any amount in Dollars due thereunder and a change shall occur between the rate of exchange applied in making such conversion and the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of
payment of such judgment, the obligor in respect of such obligation will pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary to insure that the amount paid on the date of payment is the amount in
such other currency which, when converted into Dollars and transferred to New York City, New York, in accordance with normal banking procedures, will result in realization of the amount then due in
Dollars and (vi) any amount due under this paragraph shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sum due under or in respect
of the Related Documents. In no event, however, shall the respective judgment debtor be required to pay a larger amount in such other currency, at the rate of exchange in effect on the date of payment
than the amount of Dollars stated to be due under the respective Related Document, so that in any event the obligations of the respective judgment debtor under the Related Document will be effectively
maintained as Dollar obligations.

not paid in full on such date, such shortfall shall bear interest thereon at the Overdue Rate from the due date thereof until such amount is paid in full. 

        2.    Interest on Overdue Amounts.    If (i) the Issuer shall default in the payment when due of (x) the unpaid

when due, or (z) any other amount becoming due under this Supplement,

or (ii) any Event of Default shall have occurred, then, in any such case, the Issuer shall from time to time pay interest (the incremental interest payable in excess of the interest otherwise
payable, "Default Interest") on such unpaid amounts (or, in the case of clause (ii), on all amounts of outstanding principal of, and unpaid interest on, the Series 2002-1 Notes and other amounts then
due and owing to the Series Enhancer, the Series 2002-1 Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee), to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to, but not including, the date of actual payment (after as
well as before judgment), at a rate per annum equal to the Overdue Rate, for the period during which such principal, interest or other amount shall be unpaid from the due date of such payment to the
date of actual payment thereof (or, in the case of clause (ii), for the period from the occurrence of such Event of Default to the earliest date on which such Event of Default shall have ceased to
exist). Any such Default Interest shall be payable immediately upon demand and shall be distributed from the Series 2002-1 Series Account as set forth in Section 302 of this Supplement. 

        D.    Principal Payments on the Series 2002-1 Notes.    1. In addition to any Prepayment required pursuant to the

        2.    The

limitation, termination payments) assessed by any Interest Rate Hedge Provider and any Series Enhancer. 

        3.    The
Issuer may, on any Payment Date and upon three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Series 2002-1 Noteholders (which notice shall
be irrevocable when given to the Indenture Trustee or the Series 2002-1 Noteholders in accordance with the terms of this Supplement), voluntarily prepay the Series 2002-1 Note Principal Balance by
making a wire transfer to the Series Account; provided, however, that the Issuer may not make such repayment from funds in the Transaction Accounts,

in each case in accordance with the terms of Section 302(c) or 302(e) of the Indenture, or are otherwise expressly available to the Issuer for such Prepayment. In connection with any Prepayment made

        1.    In
addition to payments of principal and interest on the Series 2002-1 Notes when due, the Issuer shall pay any and all Taxes, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of each Series 2002-1 Noteholder and any Person to whom a Series 2002-1 Noteholder has sold an interest in the Series 2002-1 Note, the Deal Agent and any Liquidity Bank (such
Series 2002-1 Noteholder and any such Person being an "Indemnified Party"), such Taxes as are imposed on or measured by each Indemnified Party's net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of which
such Indemnified Party, as the case may be, is organized or maintains an office or any political subdivision thereof. 

        2.    In
addition, the Issuer shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any
payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Supplement or any other documents related to the issuance of the Series 2002-1 Notes
except for any such taxes due upon the transfer by a Series 2002-1 Noteholder of its Series 2002-1 Notes to any Person other than the Series Enhancer (hereinafter referred to as "Other Taxes"). 

        3.    If
any Taxes or Other Taxes are directly asserted or imposed against any Indemnified Party, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Party for the
full amount of the Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes asserted or imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 206) paid by the Indemnified Party and any
liability (including penalties, interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted or
imposed. If the Issuer fails to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Indemnified Party the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Issuer shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for any incremental Taxes or Other Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by
the Indemnified Party as a result of any such failure. Payment under this indemnification shall be made by Issuer immediately upon 

5

 

written demand therefor by any Indemnified Party; provided that such payment shall be made in accordance with the priorities for distributions set
forth in Section 302 of this Supplement. Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to Issuer of any assertion of Taxes or Other Taxes so that Issuer may, at its option, contest such assertion. 

        4.    Within
thirty (30) days after the date of any payment by the Issuer of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Issuer shall furnish to each of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders the
original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders. 

        5.    Taxes
and Other Taxes shall not constitute a "Claim" (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against the Issuer in the event such amounts are not paid in
accordance with Section 302 of this Supplement. 

        6.    On
or before the date it acquires a Series 2002-1 Note (and, so long as it may properly do so, periodically thereafter, as requested by Issuer, to keep forms up to date),
each Series 2002-1 Noteholder that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America hereby is deemed to have agreed by its acceptance of its Series 2002-1 Note to
deliver to the Indenture Trustee any certificates, documents or other evidence that shall be required by the Code (or any regulations issued pursuant thereto) to establish that, assuming the Series
2002-1 Notes are properly characterized as indebtedness, it is exempt from existing United States Federal withholding requirements, including two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI or any applicable successor form, properly completed and duly executed by the Series 2002-1 Noteholder certifying that it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement
without deduction or withholding of any United States Federal income taxes (or at a reduced rate). If any Series 2002-1 Noteholder does not comply with the requirements of this Section 206(f), then
the amounts payable to such Series 2002-1 Noteholder pursuant to this Section 206 shall be limited to reflect such withholding. Any payment made by any Person to any Series 2002-1 Noteholder of Series
2002-1 Note Interest Payment, Scheduled Principal Payment Amount or Commitment Fees shall be considered as having been paid by the Issuer to the Series 2002-1 Noteholder for all purposes of this
Supplement.

        1.    If

of law), shall (A) subject an Affected Party
to any Tax (except for Taxes on the overall net income of such Affected Party), duty or other charge with respect to any Series 2002-1 Note, or any right to make Series 2002-1 Advance hereunder, or on
any payment made hereunder, (B) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve requirement (including, without limitation, any reserve requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, but excluding any reserve requirement, if any, included in the determination of the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with
or for the amount of, or credit extended by, any Affected Party or (C) impose any other condition affecting a Series 2002-1 Note or any Series 2002-1 Noteholder's rights hereunder, the result of which
is to increase the cost to any Affected Party or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by an Affected Party under this Supplement, then within ten (10) days after demand by such
Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Issuer shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Affected Party for such additional or increased cost incurred or such reduction suffered.

        2.    If
either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request or (ii) compliance by any
Affected Party with any law, guideline, rule, regulation, directive or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), including, without
limitation, compliance by an Affected Party with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of any Affected Party
as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under the other Related Documents or arising in connection herewith or therewith to a level below that which any such Affected Party could have
achieved but for such introduction, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Affected Party with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Affected Party to
be material, then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by such Affected Party (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for such demand), the Issuer
shall pay directly to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Affected Party for such reduction. 

        3.    If
as a result of any event or circumstance similar to those described in clauses (a) or (b) of this Section, any Affected Party is required to compensate a bank or other
financial institution providing liquidity support, credit enhancement or other similar support to such Affected Party in connection with this Agreement or the funding or maintenance of Series 2002-1
Advances hereunder, then within ten (10) days after demand by such Affected Party, the Issuer shall pay to such Affected Party such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to reimburse such
Affected Party for any amounts payable or paid by it. 

        4.    In
determining any amount provided for in this section, the Affected Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Any Affected Party making a claim
under this section shall submit to the Issuer and the Manager a written description as to such additional or increased cost or reduction and the calculation thereof, which written description shall be
conclusive absent demonstrable error. 

        5.    If
a Liquidity Bank shall notify the Deal Agent that a Eurodollar Disruption Event as described in clause (a) of the definition of "Eurodollar Disruption Event" has
occurred, the Deal Agent shall in turn so notify the Issuer, whereupon all Series 2002-1 Advances in respect of which Series 2002-1 Note Interest Payment accrues at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate shall
immediately be converted into a Series 2002-1 Advance in respect of which interest accrues at the Base Rate. 

        6.    Any
amounts payable by the Issuer pursuant to this Section 207 shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 302 hereof and shall not constitute a "Claim"
(as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) against the Issuer in the event that such amounts are not paid in accordance with Section 302 of this Supplement.

VI.
  
    The Notes Policy    
  

        A.    The Notes Policy.    1. On each Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall determine, with respect to the
immediately following Payment Date, based solely on the information contained in the Manager Report, whether there exists a Deficiency Amount. 

        2.    If
there exists a Deficiency Amount which is an Insured Amount with respect to a Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall complete a Notice in the form of Exhibit A to
the Notes Policy and submit such claim for such Insured Amount to the Series Enhancer in accordance with the terms of the Notes Policy. Any payment made by the Series Enhancer under the Notes Policy
shall be applied solely to the payment of principal of or interest (other than Default Interest) on the Series 2002-1 Notes. 

        3.    The
Indenture Trustee shall (i) receive Insured Amounts as attorney-in-fact of each of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders and (ii) disburse such Insured Payments directly to
the Series 2002-1 Noteholders. The Issuer hereby agrees for the benefit of the Series Enhancer (and each Series 2002-1 Noteholder, by acceptance of its Series 2002-1 Notes, will be deemed to have
agreed) that, without limiting any other rights of the Series Enhancer, to the extent the Series Enhancer pays, or causes payment of, Insured Amounts, either directly or indirectly (as by paying
through distribution to the Indenture Trustee), to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders, the Series Enhancer will be entitled to (x) reimbursement pursuant to Section 302 or Section 806 of the Indenture and
Section 302 hereof and (y) assignment of certain rights and interests of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders as well as equitable and legal rights of subrogation as described in the Insurance Agreement and
Notes Policy. 

        4.    The
Series 2002-1 Notes will be insured by the Notes Policy pursuant to the terms set forth in the Notes Policy, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained
in this Supplement. 

        5.    If
a Corporate Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee at any time has actual knowledge that a Deficiency Amount will exist on the applicable Payment Date, the Indenture
Trustee shall promptly
notify the Series Enhancer, the Deal Agent and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider of the amount of such deficiency. 

        6.    Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment with respect to the principal of or interest on the Series 2002-1 Notes which is made with moneys received
pursuant to the terms of the Notes Policy shall not be considered payment by the Issuer with respect to the Series 2002-1 Notes, shall not discharge the Issuer in respect of its obligation to make
such payment, and shall not result in the payment of, or the provision for the payment of, the principal of or interest on, the Series 2002-1 Notes for purposes of the Indenture. Each Series 2002-1 

12

 

Noteholder by its acceptance of a Series 2002-1 Note agrees, and the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee acknowledge, that, without the need for any further action on the part of the Series Enhancer,
the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar, (i) to the extent the Series Enhancer makes payments, directly or indirectly, on account of principal of, or interest on, the Series 2002-1
Notes to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders, the Series Enhancer will be fully subrogated to the rights of such Series 2002-1 Noteholders to receive such principal and interest from the Issuer, and (ii)
the Series Enhancer shall be paid such principal and interest in its capacity as a Holder of the Series 2002-1 Notes, but only from the sources and in the manner and priority provided herein for the
payment of such principal and interest. To evidence the Series Enhancer's subrogation to the rights of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders, the Note Register shall note the Series Enhancer's rights as
subrogee upon the register of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders upon receipt from the Series Enhancer of proof of payment by the Series Enhancer of any Insured Amount. Nothing in this Section shall expose
the Issuer or the Collateral to double recovery for any such amounts. 

        7.    Each
of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee hereby grants to the Series Enhancer, as long as no Series Enhancer Default exists, the right of prior approval of
amendments, waivers or supplements to the Related Documents available to Series 2002-1 Noteholders hereunder and thereunder and of the exercise of any option, vote, right, power or the like available
to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders hereunder and thereunder. 

        8.    The
Indenture Trustee shall keep a complete and accurate record of the amount and allocation of Insured Amounts and the Series Enhancer shall have the right to inspect
such records at reasonable times upon three (3) Business Day's prior written notice to the Indenture Trustee. 

        9.    In
the event that a Preference Amount is payable under the Notes Policy, the Indenture Trustee shall so notify the Series Enhancer, shall comply with the provisions of
the Notes Policy to obtain payment by the Series Enhancer of such Preference Amount, and shall, at the time it provides notice to the Series Enhancer, notify the Series 2002-1 Noteholders by mail
that, in the event that any Series 2002-1 Noteholder's payment is so recovered, such Series 2002-1 Noteholder will be entitled to payment thereof pursuant to the terms of the Notes Policy. The
Indenture Trustee shall furnish to the Series Enhancer, at its written request, the requested records it holds in its possession evidencing the payments of principal of and interest on the Series
2002-1 Notes, if any, which have been made by the Indenture Trustee and subsequently recovered from Series 2002-1 Noteholders, and the dates on which such payments were made. 

        Without
limiting any rights of the Series Enhancer under the Notes Policy or any other Related Document, and without modifying or otherwise affecting any terms or conditions of the Notes
Policy, each Series 2002-1 Noteholder, by its acceptance of a Series 2002-1 Note, and the Indenture Trustee hereby agree that the Series Enhancer (so long as no Series Enhancer Default exists) may at
any time during the continuation of any Proceeding relating to a Preference Amount direct all matters relating to such Preference Amount, including, without limitation, (i) the direction of any appeal
of any order relating to any Preference Amount and (ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal. In addition, and without limitation of the foregoing, the
Series Enhancer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indenture Trustee and each such Series 2002-1 Noteholder in the conduct of any Proceeding with respect to any such Preference Amount,
including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any order issued in connection with any such Preference Amount. Insured Amounts paid by the
Series Enhancer to the Indenture Trustee shall be received by the Indenture Trustee, as agent to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders, and deposited into the Series Account for distribution in accordance
with Section 302 hereof. Each Series 2002-1 Noteholder by its acceptance of a Series 2002-1 Note, and the Indenture Trustee, as agent to the Series 2002-1 Noteholders, hereby acknowledges and affirms
that the rights of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders to 

13

 

any moneys paid or payable in respect of the Series 2002-1 Notes shall be fully subrogated to the Series Enhancer to the extent of any payment made by the Series Enhancer pursuant to the terms of the
Notes Policy, and any interests due thereon. 

        10.  By
acceptance of a Series 2002-1 Note, each Series 2002-1 Noteholder agrees to be bound by the terms of the Notes Policy, including, without limitation, the method and
timing of payment, the Series Enhancer's right of subrogation and the other rights of the Series Enhancer set forth therein. 

        11.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that any or all of the outstanding principal amounts of the Series 2002-1 Notes become or are declared to be due and payable
prior to the Final Maturity Date, the Series Enhancer shall have no obligation under the Notes Policy to pay such amounts prior to the Final Maturity Date, unless the Series Enhancer shall elect to
make such accelerated payments in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Notes Policy. 

        12.  The
Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to enforce on behalf of the Series 2002-1 Noteholders the obligations of the Series Enhancer under the Notes Policy.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or any other Related Document, the Series 2002-1 Noteholders are not entitled to make any claims under the Notes Policy or institute proceedings
directly against the Series Enhancer. 

        13.  Nothing
in this Section 601 or in any other Section hereof shall or is intended to modify any of the terms, provisions or conditions of the Notes Policy.
