The Issuers (as defined herein) have duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture to provide for the issuance from time to time of one or more series of Net-Lease Mortgage Notes (collectively, the “Notes”), to be issued pursuant to this Indenture.  The Notes issuable under this Indenture shall be issued in series (each, a “Series”), as from time to time may be created by supplements (each, a “Series Supplement”) to this Indenture. 
In connection with each Series of Notes issued under this Indenture, the applicable Issuers may enter into agreements with other entities that will provide credit enhancement or other protection for the Holders of a Series of Notes and the applicable Issuers will incur obligations under the terms of such agreements.
All things necessary to make the Notes, when the Notes are executed by the applicable Issuers and authenticated and delivered by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and duly issued by such Issuers, the valid and legally binding obligations of such Issuers enforceable in accordance with their terms, and to make this Indenture a valid and legally binding agreement of such Issuers enforceable in accordance with its terms, have been done.
GRANTING CLAUSE
Each of the Issuers hereby Grants to the Indenture Trustee on the applicable Series Closing Date, for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, all of such Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to the assets of such Issuer, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Issuer, or in which such Issuer now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest, together with the assets of any other Issuers (individually, the “Collateral” and, collectively, the “Collateral Pool”), including, without limitation, (i) such Issuer’s Mortgaged Properties (other than Mortgaged Properties securing Mortgage Loans), (ii) each of the Leases with respect to such Mortgaged Properties and all payments required thereunder on and after the applicable First Collateral Date with respect thereto, (iii) such Issuer’s Mortgage Loans and all payments required thereunder on and after the applicable First Collateral Date with respect thereto, (iv) all of such Issuer’s right, title and interest in all fixtures and reserves and escrows, if any, related to such Issuer’s Mortgaged Properties, (v) any guarantees of and security for the Tenants’ obligations under the Leases, including any security deposits thereunder, (vi) all of such Issuer’s rights under the applicable Performance Undertaking and Environmental Indemnity Agreement, (vii) all of such Issuer’s rights (but none of its obligations) under the Property Transfer Agreements, (viii) the Collection Account, the Release Account, the Lockbox Accounts, the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account, the Payment Account, any sub-accounts of such accounts and any other accounts established under the Transaction Documents for purposes of receiving, retaining and distributing amounts received in 

respect of the Collateral Pool and making payments to the holders of the Notes and making distributions to the holders of the LLC Interests, and all funds and Permitted Investments as may from time to time be deposited therein, (ix) all present and future claims, demands and causes of action in respect of the foregoing, and (x) all proceeds of the foregoing of every kind and nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, all proceeds of the conversion thereof, voluntary or involuntary, into cash or other liquid property, all cash proceeds, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances, chattel paper, checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every kind and other forms of obligations and receivables, instruments and other property that at any time constitute all or part of or are included in the proceeds of the foregoing.
The foregoing Grants are made in trust to secure the payment of principal of and interest on, and any other amounts owing in respect of, the Notes, and to secure compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, all as provided in this Indenture and each Series Supplement. Any amounts, proceeds or other property expressly released from the lien of the Indenture shall cease to constitute “Collateral” and shall cease to be part of the “Collateral Pool”.

The holders of the Notes shall have no recourse to any other assets of the Issuers.  In the event the Collateral has been exhausted and any of the Notes have not been paid in full, then any and all amounts that are still due on such Notes shall be extinguished and shall not revive, and such Notes shall be cancelled.

If any such transfer of a Note or Ownership Interest held by the related transferor and also to be held by the related transferee in the form of a Book-Entry Note is to be made without registration under the 1933 Act, the transferor will be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit C-1 in respect of such Note and the transferee will be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit C-2 in respect of such Note, in each case as if such Note were evidenced by a Definitive Note.
(f)    If a Person is acquiring any Note as a fiduciary or agent for one or more accounts, such Person shall be required to deliver to the Note Registrar a certification to the effect that, and such other evidence as may be reasonably required by the Note Registrar to confirm that, it has (i) sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and (ii) full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations, warranties, certifications and agreements with respect to each such account as set forth in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 2.05.
(g)    Subject to the preceding provisions of this Section 2.05, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose, the applicable Issuers shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same Series and Class of a like Percentage Interest.
(h)    At the option of any Holder, its Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of authorized denominations of the same Series and Class of a like Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the offices of the Note Registrar maintained for such purpose. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the applicable Issuers shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
(i)    Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.  The Note Registrar shall be permitted to request such evidence reasonably satisfactory to it documenting the identity and/or signatures of the transferor and transferee, with such signature guaranteed by an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the Note Registrar, which requirements include membership or participation in Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program (STAMP) or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the Note Registrar in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Exchange Act.

-34-

(j)    All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes shall be the valid obligations of the applicable Issuers, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the related Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
(k)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar, as the case may be, shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Note of any Series of Notes for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for payment in full of the Class of Notes to which such Note is a part.
(l)    No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Notes.
(m)    All Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be physically canceled by the Note Registrar, and the Note Registrar shall dispose of such canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures.
(n)    The Note Registrar or the Indenture Trustee shall provide to the Issuers, Property Manager and Special Servicer upon reasonable written request and at the expense of the requesting party a current copy of the Note Register.
(o)    Each purchaser of a Note that represents a beneficial interest in a Global Note (and each Note owner) and each purchaser of book-entry Notes or interests therein will be deemed to have represented, warranted and agreed, and each purchaser of definitive, physical Notes, if any, or will represent, warrant and agree, as follows (the “Prospective Purchase Representations”):

It is (x) a substantial, sophisticated institutional investor having such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, and, in particular, in such matters related to securities similar to the Notes, such that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Notes, and (y) able to bear the economic risks of such an investment.

It will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the Notes or interests therein, except to a person reasonably believed to be: (x) a Non-U.S. Person that is not acquiring the Notes or interests therein for the account or benefit of any U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S) and is acquiring the Notes or interests therein in an offshore transaction; or (y) a Qualified Institutional Buyer that purchases for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, or otherwise in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Indenture.

Section 2.06    Book-Entry Notes.
(a)    The Book-Entry Notes of each Series 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 Depository and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except as provided in Section 2.06(c) below, transfer of such Notes may not be registered by the Note Registrar unless such transfer is to a successor Depository that agrees to hold such Notes for the respective Note Owners with Ownership Interests therein.  Except as provided in Section 2.06(c) below, such Note Owners shall hold and transfer their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided in Section 2.06(c) below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered Notes (“Definitive Notes”) in respect of such Ownership Interests.  All transfers by Note Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Notes to be held by the related transferees as Book-Entry Notes shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing each such Note Owner.  Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Notes of Note Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures.  The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it to act as such.  Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Note Registrar shall have any responsibility to monitor or restrict the transfer of any Book-Entry Note transferable through the book-entry facilities of the Depository.  The Book-Entry Custodian may, and, if it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Issuers, the Property Manager and Special Servicer, and, if the Indenture Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian, the Indenture Trustee, any other transfer agent (including the Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian 

-38-

and the Depository or any successor Depository 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 other than the Depository.  If the Indenture Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor trustee or, if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Book-Entry Custodian.  The Issuers shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Notes held as Book-Entry Notes by the Book-Entry Custodian.
(b)    The Issuers, the Indenture Trustee, the Property Manager, the Special Servicer, the Back-Up Manager and the Note Registrar may for all purposes, including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Notes, deal with the Depository as the Noteholder and the authorized representative of the Note Owners with respect to such Notes and as sole Noteholder of such Notes, and shall have no obligations to the Note Owners.  The rights of Note Owners of each such Series of Notes shall be exercised only through the Depository and the applicable Depository Participants and the rights of Note Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Notes shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Note Owners, and all references in this Indenture to actions by the Noteholders shall refer to actions taken by the Depositor upon instructions from the Depository Participants, and all references in this Indenture to distributions, notices, reports and statements to the Noteholders shall refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to the Depositor, as registered holder of the Notes of such Series of Notes for distribution to the Note Owners in accordance with the procedures of the Depository.  Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as holder of the Book-Entry Notes with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Note Owners.  The Indenture Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Noteholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.  Whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Noteholders evidencing a specified percentage of the principal amount of Notes, the applicable Depository shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or their related Depository Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee.  Whenever notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to such Note Owners, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuers shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders to the applicable Depository for distribution to the Note Owners.
(c)    If (i) the Issuers advise the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes (or any portion thereof), and (ii) the Issuers are unable to locate a qualified successor, the Note Registrar shall notify all affected Note Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to such Note Owners requesting the same.  Upon surrender to the Note Registrar of the Book-Entry Notes (or any portion thereof) by the Book-Entry Custodian or the Depository, as applicable, and the delivery of registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the applicable Issuers shall execute, and the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered, the Definitive 

-39-

Notes in respect of such Notes to the Note Owners identified in such instructions.  None of the applicable Issuers, the Indenture Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Property Manager, the Special Servicer, the Back-Up Manager or the Note Registrar shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
(d)    Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, for purposes of evidencing ownership of any Notes formerly held as Book-Entry Notes, the registered holders of such Definitive Notes shall be recognized as Noteholders hereunder and, accordingly, shall be entitled directly to receive payments on, to exercise voting and consent rights with respect to, and to transfer and exchange such Definitive Notes.  Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the applicable Depository with respect to such Notes shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Indenture Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall recognize the Noteholders of the Definitive Notes of such Series of Notes as Noteholders of such Series of Notes hereunder.
(e)    Each of the Issuers shall provide an adequate inventory of Definitive Notes of each Class of each Series to the Indenture Trustee.
Section 2.07    Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.
If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar, the applicable Issuers shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered, in exchange therefor, a new Note of the same Series, Class and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
If there shall be delivered to the applicable Issuers, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction (including mutilation tantamount to destruction), loss or theft of any Note and the ownership thereof, and (ii) indemnity as may be reasonably required by them to hold each of them and any of their agents harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the applicable Issuers or the Note Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the applicable Issuers shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall cause to be authenticated and delivered, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of the same Series, Class, tenor and denomination registered in the same manner, dated the date of its authentication and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.07, the applicable Issuers, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar may require the payment by the Noteholder of an amount sufficient to pay or discharge any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Authenticating Agent and the Indenture Trustee) in connection therewith.
Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 in lieu of any destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuers, whether or not the destroyed, mutilated, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable 

-40-

by any Person, and such new Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes of its Class and Series duly issued hereunder.
The provisions of this Section 2.07 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent permitted by applicable law) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.
Section 2.08    Noteholder Lists.
The Note Registrar shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of the Noteholders of each Series, which list, upon request, will be made available to the Indenture Trustee insofar as the Indenture Trustee is no longer the Note Registrar.  Upon written request of any Noteholder made for purposes of communicating with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture, the Note Registrar shall promptly furnish such Noteholder at such Noteholder’s expense with a list of the Noteholders of record identified in the Note Register at the time of the request.  Every Noteholder, by receiving such access, or by receiving a Note or an interest therein, agrees with the Note Registrar that the Note Registrar will not be held accountable in any way by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and addresses of any Noteholder regardless of the source from which such information was derived.
Section 2.09    Persons Deemed Owners.
The Issuers, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and any of their agents, may treat the Person in whose name a Note is registered as the owner of such Note as of the related Record Date for the purpose of receiving payments of principal, interest and other amounts in respect of such Note and for all other purposes, whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and none of the Issuers, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or any agents of any of them, shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 2.10    Payment Account.
(a)    On or prior to the Initial Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain one or more segregated trust accounts (collectively, the “Payment Account”) at Citibank, N.A. (or at such other financial institution as necessary to ensure that the Payment Account is at all times an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account, in each case subject to an Account Control Agreement), in its name, as Indenture Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that such account and all funds deposited therein are held for the exclusive benefit of the Noteholders, and the Issuers as their interests may appear.  Each Payment Account shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account.  On each Remittance Date, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Payment Account, upon receipt or withdrawal as provided in the Property Management Agreement, the Available Amount for such Payment Date.  Except as provided in this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Payment Account.  Funds in the Payment Account shall not be commingled with any other moneys.  All moneys deposited from time to time in the Payment Account shall be held by and under the control 

-41-

of the Indenture Trustee in the Payment Account for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Issuers as herein provided.
(b)    Amounts in the Payment Account shall be held uninvested.
(c)    The Indenture Trustee is authorized to make withdrawals from the Payment Account in order to allocate amounts so withdrawn in accordance with Section 2.11(b).
(d)    Upon the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 3.01, the Indenture Trustee shall pay to the Issuers, as their interests may appear, all amounts, if any, held by it, remaining as part of the Collateral Pool.
Section 2.11    Payments on the Notes.
(a)    Subject to Section 2.11(b), the applicable Issuers agree to pay:
(i)    on each Payment Date prior to the Legal Final Payment Date for any Class of Notes, interest (but, in the case of payments of Post-ARD Additional Interest and Deferred Post-ARD Additional Interest in respect of such Class of Notes, only to the extent of the Available Amount allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.11(b)) on and principal (but, in the case of payments of principal of such Class of Notes, only to the extent of the Available Amount allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.11(b)) of such Class of Notes in the amounts and in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 2.11(b); and
(ii)    on the Legal Final Payment Date for any Class of Notes, the entire applicable Class Principal Balance for such Class of Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (but, in the case of payments of Post-ARD Additional Interest and Deferred Post-ARD Additional Interest in respect of such Class of Notes, only to the extent of the Available Amount allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.11(b)).
Amounts properly withheld under the Code by any Person from a payment to any Holder of a Note of interest, principal or other amounts, or any such payment set aside on the Final Payment Date for such Note as provided in Section 2.11(b), shall be considered as having been paid by the applicable Issuers to such Noteholder for all purposes of this Indenture.
(b)    With respect to each Payment Date, any interest, principal and other amounts payable on the Notes shall be paid to each Person that is a registered holder thereof at the close of business on the related Record Date; provided, however, that interest, principal and other amounts payable at the Final Payment Date of any Note shall be payable only against surrender thereof at the Indenture Trustee’s Office or such other address as may be specified in the notice of final payment.  Payments of interest, principal and other amounts on the Notes to be made pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall be made on each Payment Date other than the Final Payment Date, subject to applicable laws and regulations, by wire transfer to such accounts as each such Noteholder shall designate by written instruction received by the Indenture Trustee not later than the Record Date related to such Payment Date or otherwise by check mailed on or before such Payment Date 

-42-

to the Person entitled thereto at such Person’s address appearing on the Note Register as of the related Record Date.  Any amounts to be paid with respect to a Note in connection with its Final Payment Date shall be paid in immediately available funds from funds in the Payment Account as promptly as possible after presentation to the Indenture Trustee of such Note at the Indenture Trustee’s Office, but in no event later than the next Business Day after the day of such presentation.  If presentation is made after 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on any day, such presentation shall be deemed to have been made on the immediately succeeding Business Day.
Each payment with respect to a Book-Entry Note shall be paid to the Depository, as holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such payment to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures.  Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such payments to the related Note Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent.  Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the related Note Owners that it represents.  None of the parties hereto shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Indenture or applicable law.  The applicable Issuers and the Indenture Trustee shall perform their respective obligations under each Letter of Representations.
Except as provided in the following sentence, if a Note is issued in exchange for any other Note during the period commencing at the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on any Record Date and ending before the opening of business at such office or agency on the related Payment Date, no interest, principal or other amounts will be payable on such Payment Date in respect of such new Note, but will be payable on such Payment Date only in respect of the prior Note.  Interest, principal and other amounts payable on any Note issued in exchange for any other Note during the period commencing at the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs on the Record Date immediately preceding the Final Payment Date for such Notes and ending on the Final Payment Date for such Notes, shall be payable to the Person that surrenders the new Note as provided in this Section 2.11.
All payments of interest, principal and other amounts made with respect to the Notes of a Class of any Series will be allocated pro rata among the Outstanding Notes of such Class based on the related Note Principal Balance.
If any Note on which the final payment was due is not presented for payment on its Final Payment Date, then the Indenture Trustee shall set aside any payments that would be made in respect of such final payment in a segregated, non-interest bearing account (and shall remain uninvested) separate from the Payment Account (but which may be a sub-account thereof) but which constitutes an Eligible Account (or a sub-account of an Eligible Account), and the Indenture Trustee and the Issuers shall act in accordance with Section 5.10 in respect of the unclaimed funds.
On each Payment Date, the Available Amount for such Payment Date will be applied by the Indenture Trustee, first to pay the following expenses of the Issuers related to the Collateral Pool (collectively, “Collateral Pool Expenses”) in the following order of priority:

-43-

-44-

(3)    to any Reserve Account, up to an amount with respect to which the Rating Condition has been satisfied.
The Available Amount remaining on any Payment Date after payment of Collateral Pool Expenses will be allocated among each Series in the following manner and priority (such manner and priority, the “Inter-Series Priority of Payments” and the aggregate amount allocated to any Series (or the Notes of such Series) pursuant to clauses (1) through (7) below, the “Series Available Amount” with respect to such Series):
(1)    pro rata, based on amounts owing to each Series pursuant to this clause (1), to each Series, the aggregate Note Interest due on the Notes of such Series for such Payment Date plus unpaid Note Interest in respect of such Notes from any prior Payment Date (together with interest thereon at the applicable Note Rate), in each case, plus or minus, as applicable, any net payment due or proceeds received (excluding any termination payments due from an Issuer as a result of a default or termination event with respect to any hedge counterparty) in respect of such Payment Date pursuant to any Hedge Agreement related to the Notes;
(2)    so long as no Early Amortization Event has occurred and is continuing: first (a) pro rata, based on amounts owing to each Series pursuant to this clause (a), to each Series, the Scheduled Principal Payments due on the Notes of such Series for such Payment Date; and second (b) to each Series, its Pro Rata Share (calculated after giving effect to the application of the allocations described in clause (a) above) of the amount of the Unscheduled Principal Payment for such Payment Date, if any;
(3)    during the continuance of an Early Amortization Event, pro rata, based on amounts owing to each Series pursuant to this clause (3), to each Series, in reduction of the Aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes of such Series until reduced to zero;
(4)     (I) if a Sweep Period is in effect (but the Average Cashflow Coverage Ratio equals or exceeds the Early Amortization Threshold) and no Early Amortization Event has otherwise occurred and is continuing, to the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account, the sum of (a) the amount that would be required to be added to the Cashflow Coverage Ratio Numerator in respect of the applicable Determination Date to achieve a Cashflow Coverage Ratio equal to the Sweep Period Threshold on such Determination Date plus (b) the aggregate shortfalls, if any, of the amount that would have been deposited into the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account on any prior Payment Date but for there being insufficient Available Amounts in respect of such Payment Date; or (II) if the Average Cashflow Coverage Ratio is below the Early Amortization Threshold and the Requisite Global Majority waives the related Early Amortization Event, to each Series, its Pro Rata Share (calculated after giving effect to the application of the allocations described in clause (2) above)) of an amount equal to the sum of (a) all amounts on deposit in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account as of such Payment Date (immediately prior 

-45-

to any release of amounts from such Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account in respect of such Payment Date) plus (b) the aggregate shortfalls, if any, of the amount that would have been deposited into the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account on any prior Payment Date but for there being insufficient Available Amounts in respect of such Payment Date;
(5)    to any Hedge Counterparty, any and all amounts (including any termination payments due from an Issuer as a result of the default or termination event with respect to any Hedge Counterparty) due on such Payment Date to such Hedge Counterparty not paid pursuant to the allocation described in clause (1) above, pro rata, based on such amounts due to such Hedge Counterparties pursuant to this clause (5);
(6)    pro rata, based on amounts owing to each Series pursuant to this clause (6), to each Series, the Make Whole Payments, if any, due on the Notes of such Series in respect of such Payment Date plus any unpaid Make Whole Payments in respect of such Notes of such Series from any prior Payment Date; and
(7)    pro rata, based on amounts owing to each Series pursuant to this clause (7), to each Series, the  aggregate unpaid Post-ARD Additional Interest and Deferred Post-ARD Additional Interest, if any, accrued on the Notes of such Series as of such Payment Date.
On each Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee will apply and will pay the Series Available Amount with respect to each Series for such Payment Date for the purposes and in the order of priority indicated in the related Series Supplement.  The Available Amount remaining on any Payment Date after the allocations described above in this Section 2.11(b) shall be applied first, to the payment of accrued and unpaid Issuer Expenses and Extraordinary Expenses not paid from the Available Amount in accordance with such allocations, and second, pro rata, to the Issuers (such amounts to be released from the lien of this Indenture) or, at the option of any Issuer, with respect to its pro rata share of such remaining Available Amount, to the Release Account.
The Notes are nonrecourse obligations solely of the applicable Issuers and will be payable only from the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool.  Each Noteholder and Note Owner will be deemed to have agreed that they have no rights or claims against the Issuers directly and may only look to the Collateral Pool to satisfy any such Issuer’s obligations hereunder.  Each Noteholder and Note Owner will be deemed to have agreed, by its acceptance of its Note or its Ownership Interest therein, not to file or join in filing any petition in bankruptcy or commence any similar proceeding in respect of any applicable Issuer for a period of two years and 31 days following payment in full of the Notes of all Series. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.11(b), the Issuers may, subject to Section 9.08, at any time advance funds to the Indenture Trustee for the purpose of allowing the Indenture Trustee to make required payments on the Notes (“Issuer Advances”) without right of reimbursement.
(c)    In connection with making any payments pursuant to Section 2.11(b), the Indenture Trustee shall make available to each Issuer on the related Payment Date via the Indenture 

-46-

Section 2.12    Final Payment Notice.
(a)    Notice of final payment under Section 2.11(b) shall be given by the Indenture Trustee as soon as practicable, but not later than two Business Days prior to the Final Payment Date for a Class of any Series, to each Noteholder of such Series as of the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Final Payment Date at such Noteholder’s address appearing in the Note Register and to each applicable Rating Agency and each applicable Issuer.
(b)    All notices of final payment in respect of a Class of Notes of any Series shall state (i) the Final Payment Date for such Notes, (ii) the amount of the final payment for such Notes and (iii) the place where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment.
(c)    Notice of final payment of a Class of Notes of any Series shall be given by the Indenture Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Indenture Trustee.  Failure to give notice of final payment, or any defect therein, to any Noteholder of such Series shall not impair or affect the validity of the final payment of any other Note.
Section 2.13    Compliance with Withholding Requirements.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall comply with all federal, state, local or foreign withholding requirements with respect to payments to Noteholders of interest, original issue discount, or other amounts that the Indenture Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code or any other applicable law.  The consent of Noteholders shall not be required for any such withholding.
Section 2.14    Cancellation.
The applicable Issuers may at any time deliver to the Note Registrar for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which such Issuers may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Note Registrar.  The principal of and all accrued interest on all such cancelled Notes will be deemed to have been paid in full (and such payment of principal and interest will be deemed to have been made to the relevant Noteholders) and such cancelled Notes shall be deemed no longer to be outstanding for all purposes under this Indenture and the other transaction documents.
If any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuers, and the Issuers shall deliver such Note to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation as provided in this Section 2.14 together with a written statement stating that such Indenture Note has never been issued and sold by the Issuers, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

-47-

All Notes delivered to the Indenture Trustee for payment shall be forwarded to the Note Registrar.  All such Notes and all Notes surrendered for transfer and exchange in accordance with the terms hereof shall be canceled and disposed of by the Note Registrar in accordance with its customary procedures.
Section 2.15    The Hedge Agreements.
(a)     On any Series Closing Date, the applicable Issuers may enter into one or more Hedge Agreements with respect to any Class of any related Series of Notes.

(b)    The Indenture Trustee shall, on behalf of the applicable Issuers, distribute amounts due to each Hedge Counterparty under the applicable Hedge Agreements on any Payment Date from the Payment Account in accordance with Section 2.11 and the applicable Series Supplement.

(c)    The Indenture Trustee shall agree to any reduction in the notional amount of any Hedge Agreement requested by the applicable Issuers; provided, that the Rating Condition is satisfied with respect to (but only with respect to) Notes of Series to which such Hedge Agreement relates. Any amount paid by a Hedge Counterparty to the applicable Issuers in connection with such reduction shall constitute part of the Available Amount except as otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement.

(d)    Each Hedge Agreement (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement) shall permit the complete or partial termination thereof (without the payment by the applicable Issuers of penalties or fees other than termination-related expenses) by the applicable Issuers subject to the provision of at least ten (10) Business Days notification to the Rating Agencies. The Indenture Trustee shall, prior to each applicable Series Closing Dates if required by the applicable Series Supplement, establish at Citibank, N.A. (or at such other financial institution as provided in the applicable Series Supplement and as necessary to ensure that the Hedge Counterparty Account is at all times an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account) a segregated trust account that shall be designated as a “Hedge Counterparty Account”, in its name, as Indenture Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that such account and all funds deposited therein are held for the exclusive benefit of the applicable Noteholders, over which the Indenture Trustee shall have exclusive control and the sole right of withdrawal, and in which neither the applicable Issuers nor any other Person shall have any legal or beneficial interest.  The Hedge Counterparty Accounts may be a sub-accounts of the Payment Account.  The only permitted withdrawal from or application of funds on deposit in, or otherwise to the credit of, a Hedge Counterparty Account shall be for application to obligations of the applicable Hedge Counterparty to the applicable Issuers under the related Hedge Agreement.

(e)    In the event a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee becomes aware that a Hedge Counterparty has defaulted in the payment when due of its obligations to the applicable Issuers under the related Hedge Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall make a demand on such Hedge Counterparty, or any guarantor, if applicable, demanding payment by 12:30 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or by such time on the next succeeding Business Day if such knowledge 

-48-

is obtained after 11:30 a.m., New York City time).  The Indenture Trustee shall give notice to the applicable Noteholders upon the continuing failure by such Hedge Counterparty to perform its obligations during the two Business Days following a demand made by the Indenture Trustee on such Hedge Counterparty.

(f)    If at any time a Hedge Agreement becomes subject to early termination due to the occurrence thereunder of an event of default or a termination event, the applicable Issuers and the Indenture Trustee shall take such actions (following the expiration of any applicable grace period and after the expiration of the two Business Day period referred to in Section 2.16(e), as applicable) to enforce the rights of the applicable Issuers and the Indenture Trustee thereunder as may be permitted by the terms of such Hedge Agreement and consistent with the terms hereof, and shall apply the proceeds of any such actions (including, without limitation, the proceeds of the liquidation of any collateral pledged by the related Hedge Counterparty) to enter into a replacement Hedge Agreement on such terms or provide such other substitute arrangement (or forebear from doing either of the foregoing), or as otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement. Any costs attributable to entering into a replacement Hedge Agreement which exceed the aggregate amount of the proceeds of the liquidation of the terminated Hedge Agreement shall constitute Issuer Expenses payable under Section 2.11(b). In addition, the applicable Issuers will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the termination of a Hedge Agreement to become effective simultaneously with the entry into a replacement Hedge Agreement described as aforesaid.

(g)    The applicable obligations under a Hedge Agreement must be non-recourse obligations of the applicable Issuers payable only to the extent of available funds in accordance with Section 2.11(b) and the applicable Series Supplement and must contain the agreement of the Hedge Counterparty equivalent to Section 9.12 of the Property Management Agreement.

Section 2.01    Tax Treatment of the Notes and the Issuers.
The Issuers have entered into this Indenture, and each Class of Notes will be issued, with the intention that, for purposes of any federal, state and local income or franchise tax and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income, such Notes will qualify as indebtedness (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement).  The Issuers, by entering into this Indenture, each Noteholder, by acceptance of its Note, and each Note Owner, by purchasing or otherwise acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Note, agree to treat the Notes and such Ownership Interests for purposes of any federal, state and local income or franchise tax and any other taxes imposed on or measured by income, as indebtedness (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Series Supplement).
Section 2.02    Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account.
(a)    On or prior to the date hereof, the Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain at Citibank, N.A. (or at such other financial institution as necessary to ensure that the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account is at all times an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account, in each case subject to an Account Control Agreement) one or more segregated trust accounts (collectively, the “Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account”), in its name, as Indenture 

-49-

Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that such account and all funds deposited therein are held for the exclusive benefit of the Noteholders and the Issuers as their interests may appear.

(b)    The Indenture Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account during any Sweep Period the amount allocated for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.11(b). Except as provided in this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account. Funds in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account shall not be commingled with any other moneys. All moneys deposited from time to time in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account shall be held by and under the control of the Indenture Trustee in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Issuers as herein provided.
(c)    All amounts in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account shall remain uninvested.

(d)    If, on any Determination Date, the Indenture Trustee shall have determined (based on information with respect to the Mortgage Loan and Mortgaged Properties and Leases provided to it by the Property Manager and the Special Servicer) that the Available Amount for the related Payment Date is not sufficient to make, in full, the payments set forth in clauses (1) through (2)(a) of the Inter-Series Priority of Payments pursuant to Section 2.11(b) (the amount of any such insufficiency, the “Cashflow Shortfall Amount”) for the related Payment Date, the Indenture Trustee shall transfer an amount equal to the lesser of (x) such Cashflow Shortfall Amount and (y) the amount then on deposit in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account to the Payment Account, to be distributed as Available Amounts in respect of such Payment Date.  

(e)    On any Determination Date upon which a Sweep Period ceases to be continuing, 50% of the funds on deposit in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account shall be transferred to the Payment Account and treated as Available Amount in respect of the Payment Date relating to such Determination Date.  In the event that the Current Cashflow Coverage Ratio exceeds the Sweep Period Threshold for any three consecutive Determination Dates following the Determination Date upon which such Sweep Period was no longer continuing, any remaining funds on deposit in the Cashflow Coverage Reserve Account will be transferred to the Payment Account and treated as Available Amount in respect of the Payment Date relating to such third consecutive Determination Date.

Section 2.03    Representations and Warranties With Respect To Mortgage Loans, Mortgaged Properties and Leases.

-50-

applicable representations and warranties set forth on Schedule I-A and Schedule I-B with respect to the (X) Mortgage Loans and (Y) Mortgaged Properties and any related Leases, respectively, added to the Collateral Pool by such Issuer on such Series Closing Date; provided, that such representations and warranties shall be made as of the date specified in such representation or warranty or, in the event no such date is specified with respect to any such representation or warranty, as of the applicable Transfer Date, or (ii) in any other instance in which an Issuer acquires any Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties and related Leases on or after the Applicable Series Closing Date (including in connection with the addition of any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans and/or Qualified Substitute Mortgaged Properties to the Collateral Pool), such Issuer hereby makes the applicable representations and warranties set forth on Schedule I-A and Schedule I-B with respect to such (X) Mortgage Loans or (Y) Mortgaged Properties and any related Leases, respectively; provided, that such representations and warranties shall be made as of the date specified in such representation or warranty or, in the event no such date is specified with respect to any such representation or warranty, as of the applicable Transfer Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms and provisions and requirements of this paragraph shall not apply to any Mortgage Loans, Mortgaged Properties or Leases acquired by an Issuer from an Originator or the transactions effected by any such acquisition.
With respect to any Mortgage Loans or Mortgaged Properties and related Leases acquired by an Issuer from an Originator on or after the Applicable Series Closing Date (whether on a Series Closing Date or otherwise), the applicable Issuer shall cause (i) the applicable representations and warranties set forth on Schedule I-A and Schedule I-B with respect to (X) the Mortgage Loans and (Y) the Mortgaged Properties and any related Leases, respectively, to be made by such Originator as of the date specified in such representation or warranty or, in the event no such date is specified with respect to any such representation or warranty, as of the applicable Transfer Date (in each case subject to any exceptions approved by the Requisite Global Majority or with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied) and (ii) such Originator’s obligations with respect to such representations and warranties to be guaranteed by the Support Provider pursuant to a Performance Undertaking and such guarantee to be substantially similar in substance (subject to any modifications or differences with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied) to the analogous guarantee contained in Section 2(a) of the Series 2014 Performance Undertaking.  In connection with the issuance of any Series of Notes subsequent to the Applicable Series Closing Date, the applicable Issuer shall cause a Performance Undertaking which contains provisions substantially similar in substance (subject to any modifications or differences with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied) to Sections 2(c) and 2(d) of the Series 2014 Performance Undertaking to be entered into by the Support Provider (or an Affiliate of the Support Provider with respect to which the Rating Condition is satisfied).
The sole remedy for the breach of any representations or warranties set forth on Schedule I-A or Schedule I-B shall be set forth expressly in the Property Management Agreement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, no such breach shall constitute or give rise to a default hereunder).
Section 2.04    Reserve Accounts.

-51-

Upon satisfaction of the Rating Condition (but without the consent of any Noteholders), an Issuer will be permitted to cause the Indenture Trustee to establish one or more reserve accounts (to be held in the name of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders) (the “Reserve Accounts”) for the purpose of paying any costs and expenses relating to the Issuer’s ownership of particular Mortgaged Properties.  Each Reserve Account shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account.

Section 4.02    Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.
If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Requisite Global Majority (which shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Indenture Trustee to accelerate the Notes), declare all of the Notes to be immediately due and payable.  
At any time after such declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due in respect of the Notes has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter provided in this Article IV, the Requisite Global Majority may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

-54-

		
	(i)
	the Issuers have paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

	(ii)
	all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes that has become due solely by virtue of such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 4.12.

No such rescission and annulment shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto.

(q)    If the Issuers fail to pay all amounts due upon an acceleration of the Notes under Section 4.02 forthwith upon demand and such declaration and its consequences shall not have been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee, in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and as trustee of an express trust, shall, if directed in writing by the Requisite Global Majority (which will have the right, but not the obligation, to direct the Indenture Trustee to cause the foreclosure and sale of the Collateral in the Collateral Pool), institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and enforce the same against the Issuers or any other obligor upon such Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the Collateral, wherever situated, or may institute and prosecute such non-judicial proceedings in lieu of judicial proceedings as are then permitted by applicable law.
(r)    If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee may, in its discretion and in any order, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate proceedings as the Indenture Trustee shall deem most effective to protect and enforce any such 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 or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or any Mortgage or by law.
(s)    In case (x) there shall be pending, relative to the Issuers or any Person having or claiming an interest in the Collateral Pool, proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, (y) a receiver, assignee, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or shall have taken possession of any Issuers or its 

-55-

property or such Person or (z) there shall be pending a comparable judicial proceeding brought by creditors of any Issuer or affecting the property of such Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of or interest on any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise:
(i)    to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective attorneys, and for reimbursement of all reasonable expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith of the Indenture Trustee or any predecessor Indenture Trustee, as applicable) and of the Noteholders allowed in such proceedings;
(ii)    unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Noteholders in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such proceedings;
(iii)    to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their and its behalf; and
(iv)    to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to any Issuer, its creditors and its property;
and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each of Noteholders to make payments to the Indenture Trustee, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective attorneys, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee except as a result of willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith of the Indenture Trustee or predecessor Indenture Trustee.
(t)    Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any related Noteholder or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

-56-

(u)    In any 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 the Noteholders, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such proceedings.
(v)    All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the 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 of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Noteholders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered, subject to the payment priorities of Section 2.11(b).
Section 4.04    Remedies.
If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 4.02 and such declaration and its consequences shall not have been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Requisite Global Majority, in addition to performing any tasks as provided in Section 4.03, do one or more of the following:
(f)    institute, or cause to be instituted, Proceedings for the collection of all amounts then payable on or under this Indenture with respect to the Notes, whether by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, of the sums due and unpaid, prosecute such Proceedings, enforce any judgment obtained and collect from the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool the moneys adjudged to be payable;
(g)    liquidate, or cause to be liquidated, all or any portion of the Collateral Pool at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by applicable laws; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall give the Issuers written notice of any private sale called by or on behalf of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) at least 10 days prior to the date fixed for such private sale;
(h)    institute, or cause to be instituted, Foreclosure Proceedings with respect to all or part of the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool;
(i)    exercise, or cause to be exercised, any remedies of a secured party under the UCC;
(j)    maintain the lien of this Indenture and the Mortgages over the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool and, in its own name or in the name of the Issuers or otherwise, collect and otherwise receive in accordance with the Property Management Agreement or this Indenture any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for the Mortgage Loans, Mortgaged Properties and Leases in the Collateral Pool;

-57-

(k)    take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee hereunder; and
(l)    exercise, or cause to be exercised, any remedies contained in any Mortgage;
provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not, unless required by law, sell or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Collateral Pool following any Event of Default except in accordance with Section 4.15; provided, further, that, with respect to instituting any remedies pursuant to this Section 4.04 in any state wherein the law prohibits more than one “judicial action” or “one form of action” to enforce a mortgage obligation, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce any of the Indenture Trustee’s rights hereunder with respect to any Mortgaged Properties in accordance with the directions of the Property Manager.
In the event that the Indenture Trustee, following an Event of Default hereunder, institutes Foreclosure Proceedings, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly give a notice to that effect to the Issuers and each Rating Agency.
Section 4.05    Application of Money Collected.
Any money collected by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be deposited in the Payment Account and, on the Payment Date relating to the Collection Period in which such moneys are deposited in the Payment Account, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11 and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes, upon presentation and surrender of the Notes if fully paid.
Section 4.06    Limitation on Suits.
No Noteholder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:
(1)    such Noteholder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;
(2)    the Noteholders holding more than 50% of the Aggregate Series Principal Balance shall have made written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;
(3)    such Noteholders have offered to the Indenture Trustee adequate indemnity or security satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;
(4)    the Indenture Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity or security has failed to institute any such proceeding;

-58-

(5)    no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Requisite Global Majority; and
(6)    an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Noteholders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself or themselves of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Noteholders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Noteholders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Noteholders.  Subject to the foregoing restrictions, the Noteholders may exercise their rights under this Section 4.06 independently.
Section 4.07    Unconditional Right of Noteholders to Receive Principal and Interest.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note at Maturity shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payments of interest, principal and other amounts then due on such Note (subject to Section 2.11 and the limited recourse provisions herein) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment (subject to Section 4.06), and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Noteholder, unless a non-payment has been cured pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 4.02; provided, that notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture or any Series Supplement or any Note to the contrary, the obligation to pay principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be without recourse to an Issuer (except to the Collateral Pool), and the obligation of an Issuer to pay principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount payable to any Noteholder will be subject to Section 2.11.  The Issuers shall, however, be subject to only one consolidated lawsuit by the Noteholders, or by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders, for any one cause of action arising under this Indenture or otherwise.
Section 4.08    Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued, waived, rescinded or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Issuers, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 4.09    Rights and Remedies Cumulative.
Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee, to the Noteholders 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 

-59-

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 4.10    Delay or Omission Not Waiver.
No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder 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 Indenture or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders, as the case may be.
Section 4.11    Control by Requisite Global Majority.
(a)    The Requisite Global Majority shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee under Section 4.04, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee (including, without limitation, the exercise of its rights under any Account Control Agreement); provided, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any applicable law or with this Indenture or involve the Indenture Trustee in personal liability; and provided, further, that the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Requisite Global Majority may waive the occurrence of an Early Amortization Event.  Upon any such waiver, such Early Amortization Event shall cease to exist, and any Early Amortization Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Early Amortization Event or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 4.12    Waiver of Past Defaults.
Prior to the acceleration of the Maturity of the Notes, the Requisite Global Majority may waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default:
(1)    in the payment of principal or interest on any Note, for which a waiver shall require the consent of Noteholders holding 100% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of all Notes affected thereby;
(2)    in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article VIII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby, for which a waiver shall require the consent by each such Holder;

-60-

(3)    depriving the Indenture Trustee of a lien on any part the Collateral, for which a waiver shall require the consent of the Indenture Trustee; or
(4)    depriving the Indenture Trustee or the Collateral Agent of any fees, reimbursement, or indemnification, to which the Indenture Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, is entitled, for which a waiver shall require the written consent of the Indenture Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable.
Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.  Any costs or expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee in connection with such waiver shall be reimbursable to the Indenture Trustee as an Extraordinary Expense from amounts on deposit in the Payment Account.
Section 4.13    Undertaking for Costs.
All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Noteholder and Note Owner by its acceptance of such Note or an Ownership Interest therein 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 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 based on time expended, 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; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by any Issuer, or to any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, holding in the aggregate at least 25% of the Aggregate Series Principal Balance, or to any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note on or after the Maturity of such Note.
Section 4.14    Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.
Each 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 to 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; each Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the exercise of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the exercise of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.
Section 4.15    Sale of Collateral.
(a)    The power to effect any public or private sale of any portion of the Collateral Pool pursuant to Section 4.03 or Section 4.04 shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales as to any portion of the Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until either the 

-61-

entirety of the Collateral Pool shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes, and under this Indenture with respect thereto shall have been paid.  The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale.  The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any such sale but such waiver does not apply to any amounts to which the Indenture Trustee is otherwise entitled under Section 5.04.
(b)    Subject to Section 4.15(c), the Indenture Trustee shall not sell the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool pursuant to Section 4.03 or Section 4.04, unless:
(i)    the Requisite Global Majority consents to or directs the Indenture Trustee to make the related sales; or
(ii)    the proceeds of such liquidation would be greater than or equal to the Aggregate Series Principal Balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.15 shall not preclude or limit the ability of the Indenture Trustee or its designee to purchase all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale, public or private.
(c)    In connection with a sale of all or any portion of the Collateral Pool:
(i)    any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without further accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money therefor, deliver any Outstanding Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;
(ii)    the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver, without recourse, an appropriate instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Collateral Pool in connection with a sale thereof;
(iii)    the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuers to transfer and convey any such Issuer’s interest in any portion of the Collateral Pool in connection with a sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such sale; and
(iv)    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 moneys.
For the avoidance of doubt, no Collateral may be sold pursuant to this Section 4.15 unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Notes have been accelerated.

-62-

Section 4.16    Action on Notes.
The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture.  Neither the lien of the Mortgages and this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee, any Series Enhancer or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against any Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Collateral Pool.
ARTICLE V     
 
THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE
Section 5.01    Certain Duties and Responsibilities.
The Issuers hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the Indenture Trustee, with full power of substitution, as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in place and stead of the Issuers and in the name of the Issuers or in its own name or in the name of a nominee, from time to time in the Indenture Trustee’s discretion, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Indenture, all as set forth in this Section.  Such designation shall not impose upon the Indenture Trustee, or release or diminish, the Issuer’s obligations under any of the Transaction Documents.  The Indenture Trustee shall also perform all of the duties and obligations required of it under the Property Management Agreement (it being understood and agreed that all limitations of liabilities, indemnities, exculpatory provisions and similar matters set forth herein shall apply to the Indenture Trustee’s performance of such duties and obligations).
(f)    The rights, duties and liabilities of the Indenture Trustee in respect of this Indenture shall be as follows:
(i)    The Indenture Trustee shall have the full power and authority to do all things not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture that it may deem advisable in order to enforce the provisions hereof or to take any action with respect to a default or an Event of Default hereunder, or to institute, appear in or defend any suit or other proceeding with respect hereto, or to protect the interests of the Noteholders.  The Issuers shall prepare and file or cause to be filed, at the applicable Issuers’ expense, a UCC Financing Statement and any continuation statements, describing such Issuers as debtor, the Indenture Trustee as secured party and the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool as the collateral, in all appropriate locations in the State of Delaware promptly following the initial issuance of each Series of Notes, and within six months prior to each fifth anniversary of the original filing.  The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and obligated to make, at the expense of the applicable Issuers, all required filings and refilings with respect to which the Indenture Trustee receives written direction from an Issuer, necessary to preserve the liens created by the Mortgages and this Indenture as provided therein and herein.  The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to take any action to exercise or enforce the trusts hereby created which, 

-63-

in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee, shall be likely to involve expense or liability to the Indenture Trustee, unless the Indenture Trustee shall have received an agreement satisfactory to it in its reasonable discretion to indemnify it against such liability and expense.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Indenture Trustee shall not be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements contained herein, or in any other instruments to be performed or observed by the Issuers.
(ii)    Subject to the other provisions of this Article V, the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Indenture Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provisions of this Indenture, shall examine them to determine whether they are on their face in the form required by this Indenture to the extent expressly set forth herein.  If any such instrument is found on its face not to conform to the requirements of this Indenture in a material manner, the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected.  The Indenture Trustee shall not incur any liability in acting upon any signature, notice, request, consent, certificate, opinion, or other instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine.  In administering the trusts hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder directly or through its agents or attorneys; provided, that it shall remain liable for the acts of all such agents and attorneys who are not parties to the Transaction Documents operating in their named capacities under such Transaction Documents.  The Indenture Trustee may, at its own expense (except as otherwise provided in Section 5.04), consult with counsel, accountants and other professionals to be selected and employed by it, and the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of any such Person nor for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(iii)    The Indenture Trustee shall not, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.01(a)(i), have any duty to make, arrange or ensure the completion of any recording, filing or registration of any instrument or other document (including any UCC Financing Statements), or any amendments or supplements to any of said instruments or to determine if any such instrument or other document is in a form suitable for recording, filing or registration, and the Indenture Trustee shall not have any duty to make, arrange or ensure the completion of the payment of any fees, charges or taxes in connection therewith.
(iv)    Whenever in performing its duties hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Indenture Trustee may, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, rely upon (unless other evidence in respect thereof be specifically prescribed herein) an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuers or the Property Manager and such Officer’s Certificate shall be full warrant to the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it on the faith thereof.

-64-

(v)    Except in its capacity as successor to the Property Manager, the Indenture Trustee shall not have any obligations to see to the payment or discharge of any liens (other than the liens of this Indenture and the Mortgages) upon the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool, or to see to the application of any payment of the principal of or interest on any Note secured thereby or to the delivery or transfer to any Person of any property released from any such lien, or to give notice to or make demand upon any mortgagor, mortgagee, trustor, beneficiary or other Person for the delivery or transfer of any such property.  The Indenture Trustee (and any successor trustee or co-trustee in its individual capacity) nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any liens or encumbrances on the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool, arising as a result of the Indenture Trustee (or such successor trustee or co-trustee, as the case may be) acting negligently, in bad faith or with willful misconduct in its capacity as Indenture Trustee (or such successor trustee or co-trustee, as the case may be).
(vi)    The Indenture Trustee shall not be concerned with or accountable to any Person for the use or application of any deposited moneys or of any property or securities or the proceeds thereof that shall be released or withdrawn and distributed in accordance with the provisions hereof or the proceeds thereof that shall be released from the lien hereof or thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Indenture Trustee shall not have any liability for the acts of other parties that are not in accordance with the provisions hereof.
(g)    The rights, duties and liabilities of the Indenture Trustee in respect of the Collateral Pool and this Indenture, in addition to those set forth in Section 5.01(a), shall be as follows:
(i)    except during the continuance of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and
(ii)    the Indenture Trustee may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture or any other Transaction Document, as applicable; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture, to the extent expressly set forth herein.
(h)    Subject to Section 4.12, in case an Event of Default known to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and the Mortgages, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

-65-

(i)    No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Indenture Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct, except that:
(ii)    This subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of subsections (a), (b) or (c) of this Section.
(iii)    The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(iv)    The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the directions of any applicable party pursuant to a Transaction Document that is entitled to give such directions under this Indenture or any other Transaction Document relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or exercising or omitting exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Notes.
(v)    No provision 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 any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers contemplated hereunder, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it (if, in the Indenture Trustee's sole determination, the amount of such funds or risk or liability is reasonably expected not to exceed the amount payable to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 2.11 on the immediately succeeding Payment Date, as applicable, net of the amounts specified in Section 5.04, the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be reasonably assured of such repayment) unless such risk or liability relates to the performance of its incidental services, including mailing of notices under Article 4, under this Indenture (it being expressly acknowledged and agreed without implied limitation that the enforcement or exercise of rights and remedies under Article IV and/or commencement of or participation in any legal proceeding does not constitute "incidental services").
(vi)    In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage (including lost profits) even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such damages and regardless of such action.
(vii)    For all purposes under this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default or default is received by the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Notes generally, the Issuers or this Indenture. For purposes of determining the Indenture Trustee's responsibility and liability hereunder, whenever reference is made in this Indenture to such an Event of Default or a default, such reference 

-66-

shall be construed to refer only to such an Event of Default or default of which the Indenture Trustee is deemed to have notice as described in this Section 5.01(g). 
(viii)    The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the actions or omissions of the Property Manager, the Issuers, the Special Servicer, the Back-up Manager and without limiting the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee shall not be under any obligation to monitor, evaluate or verify compliance by any of such parties, or to verify or independently determine the accuracy of information received by the Indenture Trustee from any of them.
(ix)    In the event the Bank is also acting in the capacity of Authenticating Agent, 17g-5 Information Provider, Note Registrar, Collateral Agent or Securities Intermediary, the rights, protections, benefits, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article V shall also be afforded to the Bank acting in such capacities.

For the purpose of this Section 5.02, the term “default” means any event which is, or after the giving of notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

-75-

Indenture Trustee, of any portion of the Collateral Pool subject to this Indenture, and any such Persons shall be such separate trustee or co-trustee, with such powers and duties consistent with this Indenture as shall be specified in the instrument appointing such Person but without thereby releasing the Indenture Trustee from any of its duties hereunder.  If the Indenture Trustee shall reasonably request the Issuers to do so, the Issuers shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution of such instrument, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment without making such request.  A separate trustee or co-trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 5.13 need not meet the eligibility requirements of Section 5.05.
(b)    Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent not prohibited by law, be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i)    the 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 or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), as shall be provided in the appointing instrument, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Indenture Trustee;
(ii)    all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the Indenture Trustee, in respect of the custody of all cash deposited hereunder shall be exercised solely by the Indenture Trustee; and
(iii)    the Indenture Trustee may at any time by written instrument accept the resignation of or remove any such separate trustee or co-trustee, and, upon the reasonable request of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuers shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to make effective such resignation or removal, but the Indenture Trustee shall have the power to accept such resignation or to make such removal without making such request.  A successor to a separate trustee or co-trustee so resigning or removed may be appointed in the manner otherwise provided herein.
(c)    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 or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article V.  Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.  Such separate trustee or co-trustee, upon acceptance of such trust, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in such instruments, jointly with the Indenture Trustee, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as may be necessary to provide for (i) the appropriate interest in the Collateral Pool to be vested in such separate trustee or co-trustee, and (ii) the execution and delivery of any transfer documentation or bond powers that may be necessary to give effect to the transfer of the lien of this Indenture and the Mortgages to the co-trustee.  Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, by written instrument constitute the Indenture Trustee, its agent or 

-76-

attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent permitted by law, do all lawful acts and things and exercise all discretion authorized or permitted by it, for and on behalf of it and in its name.  If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall be dissolved, become incapable of acting, resign, be removed or die, all the estates, property, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of said separate trustee or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Indenture Trustee, without the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee, until the appointment of a successor to said separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary as provided in this Indenture.
(d)    Any notice, request or other writing, by or on behalf of any Noteholder, delivered to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to all separate trustees and co-trustees.
(e)    Although co-trustees may be jointly liable, no co-trustee or separate trustee shall be severally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any other such trustee hereunder.
(f)    No appointment of a separate trustee or co-trustee pursuant to this Section 5.13 shall relieve the Indenture Trustee of any of its obligations, duties or responsibilities hereunder in any way or to any degree.
Section 5.14    Representations and Warranties of the Indenture Trustee.
The Indenture Trustee represents and warrants:
(i)    the Indenture Trustee is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization;

(iii)    each of this Indenture, each Series Supplement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered by the Indenture Trustee and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by general equitable principles, whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity and by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing);
(iv)    the Indenture Trustee meets the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 5.05; and

-77-

(v)    the Indenture Trustee is duly authorized to accept the Grant to it of the Collateral included in the Collateral Pool, and represents that all corporate action necessary or required therefor has been duly and effectively taken or obtained and all federal and state governmental consents and approvals required with respect thereto have been obtained.
The Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized to execute any joinder agreements with respect to the Custody Agreement in connection with the inclusion of a new Issuer thereunder.

(ee)    The Notes of each Series shall be subject to optional redemption as provided in clause (b) below unless otherwise specified in the applicable Series Supplement.

-81-

(ff)    Unless otherwise specified in a Series Supplement for any Series of Notes, an optional redemption (it being understood that, for purposes of this Section 7.01, the allocation and distribution of Unscheduled Principal Proceeds shall not constitute an optional redemption) with respect to such Series of Notes or any Class thereof shall occur in the following manner:
(i)    Any such optional redemption of any Series or Class of Notes shall occur on a Payment Date after the Optional Repayment Date for such Series or Class of Notes; provided, that, if there is no Optional Repayment Date for any Series or Class of Notes, such Series or Class of Notes may be optionally redeemed on any Payment Date.  
(ii)    The applicable Issuers shall provide written notice of any such optional redemption to the Indenture Trustee at least ten (10) days prior to its exercise, and such notice shall specify the amount of principal that will be redeemed (the “Principal Redemption Amount”) and, if available, the amount of any Make Whole Payment (or similar payment), if any, that will be due in respect of such optional redemption (such amount of principal and Make Whole Payment (or similar payment) with respect to any optional redemption, the “Specified Terms”).  Following receipt of such notice, the Indenture Trustee, shall provide written notice to the Noteholders of the optional redemption of such Notes.  Such notice to Noteholders shall to the extent practicable be mailed no later than five Business Days prior to such Payment Date and shall specify (a) the Specified Terms and (b) in the event that such Payment Date will constitute the Final Payment Date with respect to any Notes, that amounts will be payable on such Payment Date only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for such final payment.
(gg)    In the event of any optional redemption with respect to any Notes of any Series, the applicable Issuer(s) will deposit (or cause to be deposited) amounts (other than Available Amounts) that, when combined with the Series Available Amount allocated to such Series on the Payment Date on which such optional redemption occurs, will result in sufficient funds being available in order to pay in full, pursuant to the terms of the applicable Series Supplement, (i) the Principal Redemption Amount with respect to such Notes, (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes and (iii) the Make Whole Payment (or any similar payment) payable on such Notes in respect of such optional redemption.  The Indenture Trustee shall treat any amounts so deposited as Series Available Amounts with respect to such Series of Notes, and such amounts shall not be available to make payments with respect to any other Series of Notes or pay any other obligations of any Issuer.  In the event that any such optional redemption is to occur on any Payment Date, the applicable Issuer(s) shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) amounts (other than Available Amounts) that, when combined with the Available Amount on such Payment Date, will be sufficient in order to pay in full all Collateral Pool Expenses for such Payment Date in accordance with Section 2.11(b).
Section 7.02    Series Enhancement.
To manage any other risks between the Collateral Pool and the Notes of any Series, the applicable Issuers, on or before the related Series Closing Date, may enter into one or more types of Series Enhancement with respect to such Series of Notes, and may from time to time

Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of an Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous.  Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of an Issuer stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of such Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care 

-101-

should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to such matters are erroneous.
Whenever this Indenture requires that a document or instrument (other than any Note) be delivered in substantially the form attached hereto as an exhibit, modifications and additions to and deletions from any such exhibit reflected in such document or instrument as delivered hereunder shall not impair the validity or acceptability of such document or instrument (nor shall any Person be entitled to reject such document or instrument as a result thereof) to the extent that such modifications, additions or deletions are approved by the Issuers and are made in a manner consistent with applicable law (including changes thereto).
Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.
Section 12.04    No Oral Change.
This Indenture, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of any Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought and otherwise in accordance herewith.
Section 12.05    Acts of Noteholders.
(g)    Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by the Noteholders of any Class of any Series or in their entirety may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the applicable Issuers.  Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments.  Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 5.01) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuers if made in the manner provided in this Section.
(h)    The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.
(i)    The Series, Class, Note Principal Balance and serial numbers of Notes held by any Person, and the date of holding the same, shall be proved by the Note Register.
(j)    Any request, demand, authorization, amendment, direction, notice, consent, election, declaration, waiver or other act of any Noteholder shall bind every future Noteholder of 

-102-

the same Note and the Noteholder of every Note issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, suffered or omitted to be done by the Indenture Trustee or the applicable Issuers in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.
Section 12.06    Computation of Percentage of Noteholders.
Unless otherwise specified herein, whenever this Indenture states that any action may be taken by a specified percentage of the Noteholders or the Noteholders of any Class, such statement shall mean that such action may be taken by the Noteholders of such specified percentage of the Aggregate Series Principal Balance or of such Class of Notes, respectively.
Section 12.07    Notice to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuers and Certain Other Persons.
Any communication provided for or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by courier or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, or if transmitted by facsimile and confirmed in a writing delivered or mailed as aforesaid, to: (i) in the case of the Issuers, to Spirit Master Funding, LLC, Spirit Master Funding II, LLC or Spirit Master Funding III, LLC, as applicable, at 16767 N. Perimeter Drive, Suite 210, Scottsdale, Arizona 85260, facsimile number: 480-606-0820, Attention: Ryan Berry, General Counsel, or to such other address as provided in the applicable Series Supplement, as applicable; (ii) in the case of the Indenture Trustee, to Citibank, N.A., at 388 Greenwich Street, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10013, Attention: Agency and Trust- Spirit Master Funding, facsimile number: 212-816-5527; and (iii) with respect to any applicable Series, in the case of any Hedge Counterparty or Rating Agency, to the address of such Hedge Counterparty or Rating Agency as provided in the applicable Series Supplement, or, as to each such Person, such other address or facsimile number as may hereafter be furnished by such Person to the parties hereto in writing.
Section 12.08    Notices to Noteholders; Notification Requirements and Waiver.
Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given if in writing and delivered by courier or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice.  In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is delivered or mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively be presumed to have been duly given.
Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.  Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

-103-

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular courier and mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.
Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agencies, failure to give any such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute a default or Event of Default.
Section 12.09    Successors and Assigns.
All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Issuers shall bind their successors and permitted assigns, whether so expressed or not.
Section 12.10    Interest Charges; Waivers.
This Indenture is subject to the express condition that at no time shall any Issuer be obligated or required to pay interest hereunder at a rate which could subject the Indenture Trustee to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which such Issuer is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay.  If by the terms of this Indenture, any Issuer is at any time required or obligated to pay interest hereunder at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, such rate shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder.
The Issuers expressly waives presentment, demand, diligence, protest and all notices of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Indenture, except for notices expressly provided for in this Indenture, the Mortgages or the Notes.
Section 12.11    Severability Clause.
In case any provision of this Indenture or of the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall, to the extent permitted by law, not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 12.12    Governing Law.
(a)    THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES).

-104-

United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and each of the Issuers irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of each such court in respect of any such action or proceeding.  The Issuers hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to remove any such action or proceeding by reason of improper venue or inconvenient forum.  As long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, service of process upon any Issuer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed in every respect effective service in any such legal action or proceeding.

Section 12.16    Inspection.
Each Issuer agrees that, on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee, during such Issuer’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports, and other papers of such Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom and to discuss such Issuer’s affairs, finances and accounts relating to such Issuer and such Issuer’s employees and independent public accounting firm, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested.

The Issuers, and any person who is a manager, officer, employee, agent or Control Person of the Issuers will be entitled to indemnification, payable in accordance with (and subject to) Section 2.11, against any losses, liabilities or expenses incurred in connection with any legal action that relates to the Indenture, the Notes or any agreement related thereto.  The Issuers, and any director, officer, employee or agent of any Issuer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  No Issuer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its duties under this Indenture and which in its opinion does not involve it in any expenses or liability; provided, however, that any such Issuer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Indenture and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Noteholders hereunder.
Section 12.19    Non-Petition. 
Each of the Noteholders, by its acceptance of a Note, and the Indenture Trustee hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date which is two years and thirty-one days after the payment in full of the latest maturing Note, it will not institute against, or join with, encourage or cooperate with any other Person in instituting, against an Issuer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 12.19 shall constitute a waiver of any right to indemnification, reimbursement or other payment from any Issuer pursuant to this Indenture.  In the event that any such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee takes action in violation of this Section 12.19, the applicable Issuer, shall file or cause to be filed an answer with the bankruptcy court or otherwise properly contesting the filing of such a petition by any such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee against such Issuer or the commencement of such action and raising the defense that such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee has agreed in writing not to take such action and should be estopped and precluded therefrom and such other defenses, if any, as its counsel advises that it may assert.  The provisions of this Section 12.19 shall survive the termination of this Indenture, and the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee.  Nothing contained herein shall preclude participation by any Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee in the assertion or defense of its claims in any such proceeding involving an Issuer.
Section 12.20    Non-Recourse.

-106-

The obligations of each Issuer under this Indenture are solely the obligations of such Issuer.  No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of any fee hereunder or any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this Indenture against any member, employee, officer or director of such Issuer.  Fees, expenses, costs or other obligations payable by an Issuer hereunder shall be payable by such Issuer only to the extent that funds are then available or thereafter become available for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.11.  In the event that sufficient funds are not available for their payment pursuant to Section 2.11, the excess unpaid amount of such fees, expenses, costs or other obligations shall in no event constitute a claim (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) against, or corporate obligation of, such Issuer. Nothing in this Section 12.20 shall be construed to limit the Trustee from exercising its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral Pool.
Section 12.21    Prior Performance Undertaking.
The Issuers hereby direct the Indenture Trustee to terminate any Performance Undertaking entered into, delivered, executed or issued prior to the Applicable Series Closing Date.

The Series 2014-1 Notes shall not have preference or priority over the Notes of any other Series except to the extent set forth in the Indenture. The Series 2014-1 Notes shall not be subordinate to any other Series.  
(b)    The initial Payment Date with respect to the Series 2014-1 Notes shall be the Payment Date occurring on June 20, 2014.  
(c)    [Reserved].
(d)    The Indenture Trustee shall establish on or prior to the Series Closing Date, one or more segregated trust accounts (collectively, the “Series Account”) at Citibank, N.A. (or at such other financial institution as necessary to ensure that the Payment Account is at all times an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account, in each case subject to an Account Control Agreement), in its name, as Indenture Trustee, bearing a designation clearly indicating that such account and all funds deposited therein are held for the exclusive benefit of the holders of the Series 2014-1 Notes, and the Issuers as their interests may appear.  Each Series Account shall be an Eligible Account or a sub-account of an Eligible Account.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Master Indenture, on each Payment Date, amounts then on deposit in the Series Account shall be added to (and 

5
 

treated as part of) the Series Available Amount with respect to Series 2014-1 for such Payment Date and distributed in accordance with Section 2.03.  Except as provided in the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Series Account.  Funds in the Series Account shall not be commingled with any other moneys.  The Issuers may, from time to time, deposit amounts (other than amounts that are subject to the lien of the Indenture) in the Series Account.  Any P&I Advance with respect to the Series 2014-1 Notes shall be deposited in the Series Account.
(e)    The Series 2014-1 Notes offered and sold shall be issued in the form of Book-Entry Notes. Each Class of Series 2014-1 Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $50,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.
(f)    A Make Whole Payment shall (subject to Section 2.03 and Section 2.11 of the Master Indenture) be payable by the Issuers in connection with a Voluntary Prepayment of either Class of Series 2014-1 Notes (for the avoidance of doubt, such Make Whole Payment may be paid to one or both Classes of Series 2014-1 Notes and shall be paid to any such Class of Series 2014-1 Notes as set forth in Section 2.03).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Master Indenture, no Make Whole Payment will be required to be paid (or become due) on any Class of Series 2014-1 Notes in connection with any redemption, optional redemption or Voluntary Prepayment with respect to such Class of Series 2014-1 Notes (a) on or after the End Make Whole Payment Date for such Class of Series 2014-1 Notes or (b) while an Early Amortization Event is continuing with respect to the Series 2014-1 Notes.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Make Whole Payment with respect to any Class of Series 2014-1 Notes shall not constitute a payment of interest on such Class of Series 2014-1 Notes.  The Make Whole Payment shall be calculated two business days before the related Payment Date by the Property Manager and confirmed by the Indenture Trustee.  For the avoidance of doubt, there will be no “Optional Repayment Date” for either Class of Series 2014-1 Notes.
